〈Episode 562〉 This seat is.
Just before the incident happened.
I was yawning loudly in the prison cell where I was taken.
Maybe it’s because I didn’t get enough sleep, but I was a bit sleepy.
Seeing me like that, Gu Ryeong-hwa, who was next to me, noticed and spoke.
“In this situation, oppa, would you yawn…?”
“It’s a physiological phenomenon, so I can’t endure it.”
There’s no one to really notice, so you can do something about it.
I wish I could just sleep, but it’s a shame I can’t.
On the other hand, Gu Ryeong-hwa looked very intimidated, as if she didn’t understand the situation.
Looking at that, this time I asked.
“Why are you so dead? Please straighten up.”
“Do you look like a pig?”
“I don’t think it’s a situation where you don’t need to write.”
I just came to prison for a bit, so I wondered if that was such a bother.
‘That could be the case.’
From Gu Ryeong-hwa’s perspective, it seemed like that might be possible.
Well, I have a history of going in and out of prison as if it were my own home.
If Gu Ryeong-hwa had joined the Hwasan faction, he would have been treated as a prominent member of the faction.
This situation probably doesn’t feel familiar.
‘I’m used to it, but it’s also strange.’
As he bursts out laughing at the funny thought, Gu Ryeong-hwa’s expression becomes even more bizarre.
“Brother… It was the same last time, but I think you’re in a slightly strange state.”
“I was originally weird.”
“That’s true too.”
“What, Inma?”
Gu Ryeong-hwa nods in agreement with what was said as a joke.
This is really ridiculous.
“Do you think I’m normal?”
“What? I’m normal!”
“You’re funny, little brother. Isn’t that it?”
“… What is it… .”
“There is no one in their right mind among those with the surname Gu.”
“…”
Even Gu Ryeong-hwa is biting her lips, unable to refute my words.

Looking at that sight, I added a word.
“Except for me.”
“Mr. Lee…!”
Gu-ryeong-hwa is about to lose her temper at the words he blurted out with a smile.
“haha.”
The guy who was quietly listening from the side bursts into laughter.
Likewise, it was Youngpung who was dragged in.
As attention focuses on the laughter that suddenly burst out, Yeong-pung makes a look of bewilderment.
“Ah… I’m sorry. We seemed so close that I didn’t realize it… .”
“Does this look good? Where do you see it?”
“Youngpung Sajil, your eyesight is really bad?”
Even though the words were full of unpleasant feelings, Youngpoong just smiled.
The only fortunate thing is that, unlike Gu Ryeong-hwa, that guy doesn’t seem to have any particular thoughts on his face.
“Unlike this idiot, does the dojo have some free time?”
At this, Gu Ryeong-hwa shouted at me, “What a loser!” but I tried to ignore him.
Yeong-pung blinked his big eyes and spoke calmly after hearing my question.
“It may seem that way on the outside, but I also have a lot of worries.”
It doesn’t seem like it, but if that’s what Yeongpung is like, then that’s what it must be.
He nodded slightly and then asked something different.
“Is your chin feeling better?”
“ah.”
The chin I hit last time.
It was a question of whether that was okay. At this, Yeong-pung smiled awkwardly.
“It’s nothing. You didn’t show me any convenience.”
I did hit him gently.
I had to control myself so that I didn’t hit him too hard, just enough to knock him out, or else his bones would crack.
“Rather than that… .”
Youngpoong’s gaze turns to me.
“Isn’t it my place to apologize?”
That’s what I’m talking about, the incident where he came out and demanded the return of the treasure out of the blue.
“Yes, well. I’m fine too.”
I didn’t really care.
No, to be exact, I should say that I don’t think it’s Youngpoong’s problem.
‘Something was strange.’
The jealousy and passion that Young-poong saw in his eyes at that time were not entirely Young-poong’s problems.

The eyes that were filled with energy could hardly be described as just a passionate emotion.
“Dojang, I was just wondering.”
“yes?”
“Do you hear an old man’s voice in your head…?”
“…yes?”
Yeong-pung makes a strange expression at the question.
His face looked like he was wondering what kind of strange thing that was.
“no.”
Looking at that, I took back my question.
It seems that Youngpung can’t hear anything.
I knew that if I asked any more, I would be called crazy, so I had to keep my mouth shut for now.
A spatula.
As I move my hand, a rough feeling passes over my wrist.
I lowered my gaze and looked at my wrist.
A pair of iron restraints binds both arms.
I had to click my tongue inwardly when I saw that.
‘You spent an expensive amount of money.’
A restraint to prevent unmanned actions beyond the peak.
Just by feeling the intensity, I could tell that it wasn’t ordinary iron. Was it mixed with some perennial iron?
It’s not enough that they’ve put me on a blood test, but they’ve even put me on a restraint like this.
“It’s unnecessarily thorough.”
It’s such a great way to treat sinners.
‘You treat me like I’m a sinner.’
It hasn’t even been confirmed yet. How can this be treated like this?
of course.
‘It’s true that I did it, but.’
What happened earlier was rightfully my fault.
I just didn’t get caught.
There.
‘I don’t plan on getting caught in the future either.’
I thought, carefully leaning my back against the wall.
How far should I go with my work?
How far should I blow it here?
Where is the appropriate line?
I thought about it endlessly.
Advertisements
Just enough to carry.
That ambiguous line had to be clearly drawn.
at that time.
“I hope it’s okay, Master…?”
Gu Linghua spoke with concern for the afterlife.
That sound made me pause for a moment in my trance-like thoughts.
After the examination.
There was a reason she wasn’t in prison with us right now.
‘I guess Woo Baek wanted to see me separately.’
Perhaps, the elder, Woo Baek, is calling in the person in charge, Geom Hou, and talking to him.
Woo Baek must also know that his current behavior is not good.
I guess they wanted to see this through and come to an agreement.
‘They’ll think someone did something to me.’
Someone did this.
He must have acted to place the blame on me.
I would think so.
Even if you hope not, if they had eyes they would have judged it that way.
but.
‘Knowing that, you still want to share the sin.’
Even if someone tried to blame me.
The current shaman, no, Woo Baek will somehow try to prove that this side is also guilty.
It was our fault that things were stolen, too.
Aren’t you also sinners?
It’s not just our fault.
Or.
The thing I thought I lost turned out to be in this guy’s room.
What if this guy is also connected to the criminal?
etc.
We have to somehow prove that there was a problem here too. Only then… .
Because it will be easier for them to maintain their position.
‘anyhow.’
These are things that make me irritated just thinking about them.
After seeing this in person, I understood the reactions Woohyuk had shown in his past life.
Every time the topic of shamans came up, there was a subtle reluctance evident.
The appearance of a man who wears a shaman’s uniform and walks around, but doesn’t want to live like that.

‘Why do you only eat meat?
Wasn’t that even part of the deviation?
That’s what I thought.
and.
‘At this point… that’s enough.’
Watching it this way was enough.
Two days. It’s been two days since I arrived at the shaman’s house. During that time, I checked various things.
Nothing special. I just confirmed the shaman itself.
I looked into it to see if it was different from the shaman I knew in my past life, and I was able to find out one thing.
I was wrong.
The shaman was more rotten than I knew in my past life.
Of course, that may not be the case, but that’s how I saw it.
It was more than enough to make the judgment on my own.
This is enough.
With that thought in mind, I slowly got up.
Ssuk-
As soon as I got up, Youngpung and Guryunghwa looked at me with a puzzled expression.
I looked at them and said.
“Your Majesty, I’m sure you’ll be fine.”
There won’t be any problem.
“It won’t be a problem.”
I will make it so.
“Brother…?”
“Old Sohyeop. What are you talking about all of a sudden…”
I left the two people behind who said they didn’t understand and approached the iron bars.
Then, the shaman guarding the jade looks at me with sharp eyes.
“What’s going on….”
“Did you bring clothes?”
“hmm?”
Let me start by saying something strange.
The unmanned vehicle in front makes a strange expression.
“What are you suddenly talking about? Clothes?”
“Tell Dangdeok to get ready too. We’re about to begin.”
“No, what…!”
Bam.
Advertisements
“Ugh…!?”
The unmanned vehicle in front suddenly falls over as if shocked.
That wasn’t all.
Besides that, one by one, they fell down.
Soon after, all the warriors guarding the jade fell.
Even Gu Ryeong-hwa and Yeong-pung, who were behind them, had already lost consciousness.
I held out my hand as I looked at it.
“It’s faster than before?”
Let’s say it as if it’s a new experience. Suddenly, a white hand pops out from in front of us.
It probably didn’t stick out.
It must have been there originally, but its presence has faded and it feels like it’s only now being seen.
The woman who suddenly appeared unlocked the restraints on my wrists with the key she was holding.
Bang-!
The restraints fell to the floor with a loud noise, but no one heard them and came looking for them.
It should have been taken care of a long time ago.
“Did you kill them all?”
Let me ask you something with that in mind.
“I did as you commanded, and I did not kill a single person.”
The woman who appeared gives the answer. Thank goodness. Only one person will die here. Any more slaughter would be pointless.
She got down on her knees and spoke.
Then he took something out of his bosom and handed it to me.
Black uniform and white mask.
I accepted this and immediately changed my clothes.
When I tried them on, they were a bit big for my body type.
That wasn’t a problem.
Wood crunch-!
The bones twist and the body gradually grows larger.
It only took a few seconds for the body to fit the uniform.
As I was calmly adjusting my clothes, the woman spoke to me.
“Master, we have received a call from Hwangbo Se-ga.”
“what.”
“They say they have contacted Shaolin and want you to give them an answer on what direction to take.”
“Ha. Already?”
It’s faster than I expected.
As always, those bald guys were quick to get things done.
Advertisements
“Jisun, send that guy. He’ll take care of it.”
“I will convey that message.”
After hearing the woman’s answer, he put on his mask.
I looked back immediately after.
“…”
There he saw Seongyul stuck to the wall with his eyes wide open.
He looks quite surprised.
“You said you were curious about what I was going to do with you.”
“…”
Why are you dragging me around?
Seongyul asked what on earth it was for.
“Then wait. This will be my answer.”
Squeak-!
I step through the open iron gate.
I naturally grabbed the back of my hand.
Keep your chest out and your posture as upright as possible.
Seeing this, the woman asked.
“Can I have the blood drawn without you having to dissolve it?”
“No need. It wasn’t even necessary in the first place.”
“All right.”
With each step I took, my presence diminished.
By the third time I walked, no one around me recognized me.
At that time, I jumped lightly.
Very high, I mean.
When he got to a certain height, he spoke to the woman.
“Let go now.”
“yes.”
Exactly-!
At the command, the woman lightly snapped her fingers.
Hwaaaaak-!
The curtain that had been covering him in the air disappears, revealing a gigantic body.
The smart guy grew to his maximum size and was floating in the air.
Above him stood a giant holding a spear.
Geohan, Dangdeok checks the approaching day and flies away.
It was an operation that had already been discussed.

Not long after that.
Kuuuuuuung-!!
A tremendous noise erupted from below.
I just took a quick look down there.
He just pulled the magic energy into his body.
Hwaaaaak-!
Starting from the heart, magical energy fills the entire body through the blood vessels.
The magic even affects the pupils of the eyes.
The hot body naturally became hotter.
I said it feeling it.
“Black Sky.”
At the same time as speaking.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!
A tremendous amount of magical energy gushed out from his body.
Not ‘widely’ in all directions, but only into the void.
The rising magic consumes the sky.
The remaining magic energy falls down and creates a small area.
Only in this space does day turn into night.
A space without moon or stars, only empty darkness.
After checking the created space.
I started to slowly lower my body.
He let out a gentle heat and slowed down. He had to make a difference from the Dangdeok who fell as if he was falling.
I feel your gaze.
I felt like everyone was watching me.
The fear of seeing an unknown being is also clearly felt.
It doesn’t matter.
Rather, it was pleasant.
Since I was trying to create that kind of gaze, I actually had to enjoy it.
Raised his hand.
Phew.
The bets are gathered into a handful and gathered at the tip of the finger.
The vicious spirit is as rough as its master.
I liked this sharp energy.
Because if you pursue compression of compression, it will become more intense.
Twist the flow as if holding it tightly and forming a ball.
Advertisements
The rotation speed is so fast that it looks like it could explode if you miss it.
I endured it.
It had to be done. Because this was the most important moment.
Hwaaaaak-!
The rapidly rotating beads are permeated with light.
A unique color with added blue and purple.
It wasn’t the original flame jade.
If that was all I wanted to write, I wouldn’t have written this bet.
‘Fire Star.’
An unknown area that cannot be completed with a single spark.
A secret weapon that can barely be used with one’s feet.
I lightly lifted the bead I had made and threw it into the air.
Okay then.
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaahh …
The flying orb bursts out brightly for a moment, illuminating the surroundings.
I created space by pouring darkness into the sky.
The sun was placed on top of it.
The bet was more than half-blown, but it didn’t matter.
Bam.
The tips of your feet touch the ground.
Amidst the overwhelming gazes, I looked straight ahead.
There, Woo Baek, the shaman’s elder, was looking at me with distorted eyes.
It’s a pleasant gaze.
It was evidence that the situation was going well.
It’s a good thing I’m wearing a mask. Thanks to that, this smile won’t be noticed.
I looked at Woo Baek and took out the words I had prepared.
“Nice to meet you.”
It was a word I hated to hear or even think about.
“I am.”
Now it’s my turn to spit it out.
okay.
“Every thousand.”
It was the beginning of some kind of play.
