<318 Listen to the Iron Line. (1)
Boom…! Boom!
Early morning, when the dawn air fills the training room.
In a large training room that can accommodate dozens of people.
There was a loud noise and vibration.
Additionally, the expressions of the guards watching the center of the sound were filled with deep fear.
“Take it!”
The reason is probably because of the pig-like sound of the rolling pigs squealing.
thud!
Paewool’s huge body rolls on the floor repeatedly, making a loud noise.
It was quite a large body, and dust flew up every time it rolled.
It’s not just dust.
The biggest reason why the officials are speechless and watching the spectacle.
It could also be my fault for my energy piling up so badly that it reached the ceiling.
Pae Woo-cheol, who had been rolling around helplessly on the floor, hurriedly takes a stance while touching the floor.
What came into view was someone’s hand.
The palm that flew in covered Pae Woo-cheol’s forehead as he raised his body.
Just push it and break the posture.
“Ugh!”
Just a simple action.
A movement that didn’t even require much effort.
Surprisingly, he knocked Paewool to the floor so easily.
“If you’re going to lose your balance and get up, you might as well just lie down.”
After going through all that, Pae Woo-cheol lies down on the stone floor, gasping for breath.
It seems like his physical strength has reached its limit.
“Ugh… Ugh…”
“At first, it seemed like he was calculating and coming in. But he just kept coming in from the middle. Didn’t he just ask me to hit him? He’s big and messy, but his body looks like it has no head.”
The way he speaks is extremely harsh.
Those who were eavesdropping on the sharp remarks flinched instead.
Is there another person in the Shinryongwan who could belittle Pae Woo-cheol, who is famous for his foul temper, like that?
Probably not.
Even if it existed.
Because there is no one more terrifying than that human who is craving for a sack of rice cakes right now.
“Throwing that piece of shit like you’re treating him like a child.”
“I tore the anti-aircraft gun with my hands… Does that make sense?”
Advertisements
The officials look at him with disgust. And that’s understandable.
A person who played with a piece of iron like a toy.
It was a body that seemed to be half the size of Pae Woo-cheol.
This is because, in terms of age, he is one of the youngest warriors in the entire Shinryongwan.
Of course. Unlike that.
His talents and accomplishments were well known.
Someone who was watching whispered.
“•••The True Dragon tears people apart.”
At those very quiet words, the people around him were about to nod their heads.
“Don’t rip it, you crazy guys!”
“Eek!”
Jinryong shouted again as if he had heard that again.
The ears also appear to be quite bright.
As the students of Guando fled from their seats in a hurry at the shout of Jinryong.
Jinryong, who was watching this, sighed deeply.
“•••This is why I don’t come to the training room.”
This was especially true on days when there was no morning practice.
From an unmanned standpoint, if there is no group training.
Most people come to the training room personally.
It’s already crowded on days like this.
I don’t know what kind of trouble this big guy is causing.
I scratched my head while looking at Pae Woo-cheol, who was catching his breath.
‘I guess this guy is better.’
Pae Woo-cheol does have some grit.
It’d be better than the guy lying in the corner already.
The guy who has lost consciousness and is unconscious without moving is none other than Gujeol-yeop.
-Ne1”
iced coffee….
And there was someone who smiled awkwardly in front of that phrase.
Perhaps the reason why the officials are glancing this way is because
It might be because of me, but this time it was most likely because of that smart guy.
The person smiling while looking at the leaves.
Volcano’s first diary.
A genius who defeated Namgung and the shaman and earned the nickname of Geomryong.
It was the Sword Dragon Youngpung.

Yeongpung looked at Gujeolyeop as if he was embarrassed.
He looks at me and asks.
“•••Gusohyeop, what should we do about this?”
“What can I do? Just leave it as is. Ah, I’m so embarrassed that I can’t show my face in front of the whole town.”
I’m going to die because I’m embarrassed to go somewhere and be called the same Gu.
‘I finally asked for it, but what the heck, what a blow! What a blow!’
The reason why Gujeolyeop is lying so shabby is because of that.
This is because he was struck by a blow during a duel with Youngpung and immediately fainted.
Yeah, one blow.
That means he couldn’t even hold out for a single hit.
“Ugh… .
99
Looking at that embarrassing piece of shit.
I end up washing my face dry on my own.
Youngpoong is definitely one of the greatest geniuses of our time.
But does that mean that Gujeol-yeop can be subdued with one blow?
That wasn’t it.
How did I get that kid to behave?
Are you going to collapse after getting hit once?
“Haha… You seem to be very… nervous.”
“•••Even in this situation, you are still packaging it. Your Majesty.”
“There’s a reason for everything, right?”
“What is the reason for the defeat? We lost because we were weak.”
Even in real life, let’s say you lost for a reason.
My neck is blown off, so I don’t know if I can talk.
“Oh my”
It’s not that I felt a little sorry for Youngpoong.
When Youngpung came to me to practice with me, I immediately asked him to give me Gujeolyeop.
“I’m sorry, Yeongpung Dojang.”
“No. This is also an experience, so it’s okay.”
Unlike before, Youngpoong’s arrogance was completely gone.
The essential pride that an unmanned person must have.
While having a certain sense of competition.
It means that there is no unnecessary arrogance about talent and inaction.
‘•••Your body is perfect.’

As the mind becomes more stable, it can endure the training of the volcano, which can be seen as extremely evil.
As talent blossoms, energy seeps in.
The level of Youngpung I had seen before had become so high that I couldn’t even dare to recall it.
The climax, right before maturity.
That was the state of Yeongpung now.
‘It’s so different from my previous life.’
I don’t know much about Youngpung at that time.
I knew that I had reached my peak and had been wandering for a long time.
Thinking about it makes me feel a little sick to my stomach.
‘•••I just casually hit you.’
I felt guilty about the volcano, and I didn’t like the way it looked, so I just beat it up.
From that point on, Youngpoong broke away.
Who’s rolling around in bloody poop?
Perhaps, if I just grow as I am, I can overcome the era of bloodshed.
In my opinion, the next Sword King would be Yeongpung.
Plum Blossom Sword King? I guess that’s what he’s called.
‘I had some expectations for Muyeon.’ Although it is not yet known in the Central Plains.
When Muyeon takes off her escort mask and stands in the position of a warrior.
I knew he would become famous soon.
‘You are one of my few people.’
I don’t completely believe it though.
Of all the people I trusted the most, excluding those I had a connection with in my past life, the one I trusted the most was Muyeon.
But there was also a sesame leaf inside it.
Looking at it now, I wonder if it’s time to reconsider.
“•••Goal.”
I was busy after getting admitted, so I left it alone for a while.
I wonder how long it took for it to become like this.
“Woocheol-ah.”
“Yes, yes, brother… .”
Paewoocheol answers my call with difficulty.
I guess it wasn’t enough time to catch my breath.
“Take him away and put him away.” “•••Uh… Can I just throw him on the ground nearby?”
“If possible, throw it in the room. The floor is a bit weird.”
“All right.”
Pae Woo-cheol answers as if he somehow feels regretful.

Why does this kid keep getting so competitive with that guy?
It was something I knew but didn’t know.
Because the training time is almost over.
I slowly got up.
“Are you going?”
“yes.”
“•••It’s too bad. I was looking forward to having fun training with Sohyup after a long time.”
I frowned slightly at Youngpoong’s words.
No, I don’t have any happy memories… ?
I thought about it when I went to the volcano crater before.
Anyway, all those who were crazy about plum blossoms were not in their right minds.
“Let’s do it together next time. I’ll remember it.”
“Oh… Really?”
It was something like, let’s have a meal together next time.
Yeongpung’s eyes light up when he hears this.
… It looks like I misspoke.
“No… that’s it.”
“I will definitely remember that.”
“•••Yes, please do so.”
Because I already said it out loud.
It’s too late to turn back.
Yeongpung laughs heartily as if he is possessed by a god.
‘Why do you like it so much?’
I’d be dying in a volcano.
Moreover, when I see him sometimes, it seems like he isn’t on bad terms with his brothers like he used to be.
While I was wondering about that.
Youngpoong smiles and speaks to me.
“I guess the four disciples hate training, so I felt a little lonely because they stopped showing up midway through the training.”
“,,
hmm.
After hearing Youngpung’s words, I nodded slightly inwardly.
I see
‘•••That means, you’re saying that you couldn’t hold out any longer and jumped out in the middle.’
It’s not that the masters of the Volcano Sect are strange.
Now that I think about it, isn’t it just Yeongpung that’s weird?
Advertisements
It was a moment when my perception of Yeongpung changed a little within me.
at that time.
“hmm?
99
Yeong-pung, who had been smiling at me, suddenly tilted his head.
The gaze was directed towards my arm.
“•••uh…?”
He looked at my left arm for a moment as if he felt something strange.
“Why are you doing that?”
I called out to Yeongpung in a voice that seemed to ask why I was doing that.
Only then did Youngpoong realize that his actions had been somewhat rude.
Take a step back.
“Oh, no. Sorry. I just felt like something was familiar.”
“It’s okay. I have a schedule, so I’ll go first.”
I left the training room, leaving Youngpung behind.
Pae Woo-cheol will take care of the rest.
The moment I left the training room.
I could vaguely hear the students inside sighing simultaneously.
What is this, it’s almost like treating me like a monster.
It’s a gaze I’m already used to in my past life, so it doesn’t really matter… .
The problem was Youngpung’s gaze just before.
‘•••Did you feel it?’
What Youngpoong was looking at was definitely my left arm.
Thinking about that, I rolled up my sleeves a little.
“…eww”
■•
An arm wrapped in a pink bandage came into view.
Perhaps Youngpung’s eyes were drawn to the energy he felt here.
I’m trying to hide it in my own way, but it seems like there’s nothing I can do about the unmanned volcano faction.
‘What should I do with this problem?’
ha.
With a sigh, I recalled the events of the previous day.
Perhaps, it is the object that Noya caught by borrowing my body in the story.
I think I was able to survive thanks to the power contained in this object.
The one Shin Noya used was also like that.
Advertisements
Judging from how Geom-hu and Yeong-pung react.
Anyone can see that it’s a demon from the Volcano faction.
It’s all good, this is it.
This is proof that the remark was not an illusion.
It’s true that he’s a dear friend who saved my life.
The problem is.
‘Why doesn’t it come off?’
It means that the ghost will not leave the body.
‘I’m going to turn around… .’
Since it was wrapped in a bandage, I thought I could just unwrap it.
It doesn’t come off.
I tried to unravel it carefully.
I even tried to solve it by writing a bet.
I was so angry that I even tried hitting my arm.
‘• • •I don’t know, but I’m sure there were bruises.’
I hit it a bit too hard so it was hard to get up.
I tried it because I had to do something.
Even if I die, it won’t come off.
Why on earth won’t this work?
It’s also uncomfortable to wash with the bucket tied to your arm.
I was too embarrassed to show it.
I showed the tightly tied thing to the inspector.
I keep thinking about what to do.
First of all, since it is a volcano’s ghost, I thought I should ask the plum blossom ship.
She also informed him that she had not been able to obtain the plum blossom stone she wanted.
After that, Geom-hu asked if the thing wrapped around my arm was a plum blossom stone.
How can this be considered a stone?
‘Of course, it felt that way when I was home.’
At first, it felt like touching a jade bead.
I don’t know why it’s like this now.
Geom-hu said he would ask Mae-hwa-seon about this.
You never know when you might get in touch.
I knew someone who knew much better and could answer me faster.
“So, please explain something.”
only.

But I ask questions as if I am chewing on something.
The answer just doesn’t come.
Noya, the hero of the volcano and the god who can take control of my body.
This crazy old man then briefly revealed his voice.
It disappeared again, I don’t know where it went.
‘•••I’m really going crazy.’
I don’t know what to do.
Just by looking at it, you can tell that this guy knows what it is.
You’re not kidding me.
It appeared and disappeared. What on earth are you doing?
“Nothing really works.”
Regarding the note that was in Shinryongwan.
Before the Murim Alliance began investigating.
I want to take care of everything possible.
I was getting annoyed because things weren’t going as planned due to an accident.
I have a lot to worry about even if it’s not like this.
‘… What was the schedule for the future? I think it was called internship?’
I thought about the upcoming schedule for Shinryongwan.
Was this supposed to be a practical application of the education you received so far?
I think there is something like that.
Due to the circumstances.
‘It’s about time he made his move.’
If there is any prediction that is somewhat close to certainty.
Given the circumstances, it seems that Jang Seon-yeon will start making moves.
If I were that guy, I thought this internship would be the perfect situation to tease me.
This is the opposite.
It means that it is a good situation for me to talk to the guy.
Doesn’t he know that?
‘You whispered something in my ear first. There’s no way I wouldn’t know.’
You will die here.
I was so kind as to tell you.
There is no way Jang Seon-yeon wouldn’t know.
So the method he chose would be the iron wire.
‘How did he know?’
It is somewhat questionable.
Advertisements
Unless you have knowledge of past lives like me.
It’s strange that Jang Seon-yeon knows information about the guy.
It may be true that the surname of the iron line is Je Gal-i.
If the bastard had approached the iron line.
Since he knew about that ‘power’, there’s a high chance that he approached it.
The question is how did you know that?
… .
..
Blind date information?
Although it is said that openness belongs to that side, it is not information that can be considered as such.
“I guess that means there is something behind it.”
I don’t think that’s entirely normal.
for example.
The other day, I took Seol-ah Wi to catch those guys.
‘Probably that one.’
If that’s the case, then Jang Seon-yeon has already gone a long way to being called a political faction.
‘Does Nakgeom know this?’
I wanted to know if the leader knew too.
Based on this, we will be able to know whether the entire Murim Alliance is in cahoots or not.
‘Even if it’s not in one container.’
Anyway, the blind people are not trustworthy.
I wasn’t even expecting it.
I whispered quietly, thinking about that.
“This time, I won’t let it pass.”
About what’s coming next.
He was the most important obstacle, and he was the one I wanted to kill at all costs.
This time I definitely had to clean it up.
From the moment I decided to enter the Shinryongwan with that guy.
That’s what I thought.
‘That is, unless there is a variable that could cause the sky to fall.’
I was hoping for that, though.
That evening.
I’m not at the point where the sky is falling down though.
You will be faced with variables you never expected.
“•••what?”
Advertisements
I tried to take a spoonful of rice.
It’s because the guy I was eating with said something strange.
“What did you just say?”
When I asked again as if I had misheard,
The iron line spits out the same words.
“•••The Holy Spirit asked me to help him kill you.”
It was a somewhat unexpected confession.
From my perspective, it’s something that can’t help but make me dumbfounded for a moment.
That would be true.
‘I already knew…?’
Because I knew it would happen anyway.
only.
I just didn’t know that Cheol Ji-seon would tell me directly.
