Chapter 678
Long time no see!
Gulp.
Tea drips from the table soak the floor,
and blood drips down onto it .
The room is dark without any light, and the only sounds are heavy breathing and someone’s sobbing.
“Ugh… Ugh… Ugh… Ugh… .”
The owner of the silence was Beomdong, the leader of the Biryongdae clan.
Beomdong was lying on the floor, bleeding from his hands and mouth.
“Ugh… Ugh… .”
There was shock and horror in their eyes.
The body was trembling as if it was afraid of something, and someone was bending down in front of such a person.
The owner of blue eyes.
Goo Yang-cheon met Beom-dong’s gaze with his blue eyes gleaming in the darkness.
It was so dark that he couldn’t see his expression very well, but Beom-dong could tell.
That means Goyangcheon is smiling at him right now.
Kwak.
“Huh-!”
He grabs Beomdong’s hair and lifts him up forcefully.
“You know, being falsely accused… Those who haven’t experienced it wouldn’t know. It’s something that really pisses me off.”
“Whew… Whoosh… .”
Beomdong wanted to say something, but he couldn’t speak properly because his mouth was completely torn apart.
“I didn’t do it, but they said I did. Even if I say no, they won’t believe me. Let alone prove it.”
The laughter deepens.
At the same time, Beomdong felt breathless.
Gooooooooo—!!!
Because an overwhelming murderous aura began to fill the room.
“이 개새끼야.”
Guyangcheon’s pupil is torn vertically.
“Why do I have to prove this?”
“Kreuk… That… That…”
“I didn’t do it. Do I have to prove that I didn’t do it? Why?”
At Guyangcheon’s words, Beomdong endured the pain and tried to say something.
Phew-! Kwaang-!
“Cough!”
Gu Yang-cheon did not listen and just slammed Beom-dong’s head into the floor.
“Why should I do that, you punk?”
“Keuhuuuuk.”
“Investigative authority? Investigative authority is a fucking mess. Bring it here.”

The investigative authority granted by the government.
What difference would it make if we took it?
“That’s useless to the old-fashioned and the old-fashioned ones anyway.”
The power of the investigative authority varies depending on the location.
If the incident had been caused by a direct descendant of Namgung or Mo Yongga, the investigative authority would not have been used.
That was the power of the blind.
It meant that the influence changed depending on the position, protecting justice.
It couldn’t have been more futile.
“But, do you think it would work for me?”
That could be the case.
The value of the old family was in a position that could not be reached by the old family or the four great families.
but.
“Bring it and I’ll show you.”
Whatever it was, it would be meaningless.
“Bring it here and take a look.”
The energy bursts out in a feverish, growling voice.
Woof woof.
The furniture vibrates as the energy swirls through the room.
“Kreuk… Ugh… .”
Under the crushing pressure, Beomdong’s spirit began to crumble.
“Please… stop….”
I grabbed onto Guyangcheon’s trouser leg as if pleading.
It felt miserable, but there was nothing I could do.
If things continued this way, death would come.
Beomdong could intuitively realize that.
‘What the hell is this monster… .’
I knew he was a master the last time I met him, but it was even more than I felt then.
There was a rumor that he had reached the level of Hwagyeong before he even reached the level of Soyeom.
No one believed it.
No, no one believed it.
How can you believe it?
There has never been such a genius in history. The youngest Hwagyeong officially recognized by Meng is the Shenlong of Shaolin.
But, when I checked Soyeonra’s appearance… .
‘Were you hiding your strength…?’
Even though he was being crushed, Beomdong turned his head.
Why was Soyeomra not displaying her power despite having this much power?
It was about a year ago that information emerged that the dragon had ascended to the throne.
If Soyeonra had ascended to the throne as rumored, he should have appeared long ago. But
he has not appeared until now… .
No, he still hasn’t revealed himself.
What could be the reason? At the time when Beomdong was beginning to have doubts.
“Isn’t that great?”
“…!”
Beomdong flinched at Soyeomra’s voice.
“You’re still thinking about it even after ending up like this. Are you relaxed?”
“That’s…!”
WHACK!
“Kkaaaak!”

Beomdong’s left little finger was twisted in a strange shape.
“Ugh… .”
As he was trembling in pain, Soyeom-ra continued speaking to Beom-dong.
“Daeju has been like that before too.”
The voice was so calm,
it was even more creepy.
“Even while other guys were dying, he kept thinking like this. At the time, I thought he was trying to figure out a way to survive.”
Soyeomra’s hand leaves Beomdong’s little finger and moves to his ring finger.
“I don’t think so. What on earth could it have been? Do you happen to know?”
“Wh… What are you saying… .”
Crunch.
My ring finger broke.
“Turn it off!”
At that moment, Beomdong was about to scream again.
Bam-!
Soyeonra shut his mouth tightly.
“This isn’t very important, so let’s skip it. It’s noisy, so keep your mouth shut. If you scream, it won’t be your fingers that will be targeted next, but your throat.”
As if to confirm the truth, another hand touched Beomdong’s neck.
“Nod if you understand.”
“…”
Nod.
Beomdong nodded his trembling head slightly.
Only then did Soyeonra’s hand fall from her mouth.
Taaak-!
“…!!”
He slapped Beomdong on the cheek.
His head turned and his cheek turned red.
Even in the midst of all this, Beomdong did not scream.
I just looked at Soyeomra while enduring the flowing blood.
Soyeomra smiled and nodded when she saw that.
“You listen well.”
“…”
“I’ll forgive what I said earlier.”
Swish.
Soyeomra raised her bent body.
“I originally intended to play with it, then tear it up and burn it so that no trace would remain. Unfortunately, you still have some use for it.”
The words spoken in a dry voice were so cold.
Even Beomdong could tell that those words were sincere.
It was because his blue eyes were full of murderous intent.
‘What the… . What the… .’
Are those the eyes of a young man who has just passed his term?
No, are they really a descendant of a noble family?

‘It’s a monster.’
Beomdong was convinced in his heart.
‘The author is a monster.’
It was a monster called Soyeom.
And it was a monster with power.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to create a great fortress like this in the middle of Hanam.
No matter how powerful one was, it would not be an easy task.
Squeak.
Soyeom brought a chair that was lying on the floor. He placed it in front of Beomdong and sat on the chair.
Then he crossed his legs and looked down at Beomdong.
The gaze was clear.
Blue eyes glowing in the darkness. Even the torn pupils within them.
When I faced this, my head seemed to move on its own,
to avoid eye contact .
Soyeom-ra, who was watching Beomdong, soon burst into laughter.
“Then now, let’s forget our ill feelings and have a refreshing conversation. I have a proposal for you, Your Majesty.”
The tone of speech changed.
Beomdong had to swallow dry saliva at that sight.
‘… Forget your ill feelings?’
It was something absolutely unbelievable.
Soyeomra’s eyes were telling her. The author was still thinking of killing himself.
“It would be painful to talk, so keep your mouth shut. The Lord will ask you questions that are easy for you to answer.”
“…”
“What would you have said if you had known earlier?”
…nod.
“Okay. Okay, then I’ll make my first offer.”
Soyeom said to Beomdong with a deep smile.
“First. Don’t tell anyone what happened today.”
“…”
“It doesn’t matter if you roll around somewhere or do something, just don’t say anything. Our Lord is tight-lipped, so are you okay?”
The inside of his mouth was torn, the back of his hand was blown off, and two fingers were broken.
And he was supposed to say that he fell down the stairs? And that was from a master like Beomdong? It
was nonsense, but Beomdong couldn’t point it out.
“Second. Stop sending things around like that. You’ll stop sending them if I catch them and cut off their heads and send them back to you.”
“…!”
Beomdong widened his eyes at the following words.
He had already sent several people to check on Soyeomra and the people around him.
Are you saying that he even noticed it?
“I won’t tell you to go back to the Lord and not worry about it. That seems too fatal, so let’s just do this much. We can do this much, right?”
“…”
Why is this the only thing I have to do?
I couldn’t understand a single word Soyeom-ra said.
Now that we’ve come this far, there’s no going back.
He knew that the other party had noticed, and he couldn’t just sit still knowing what kind of power Soyeom-ra had and how violent she was.
“If you don’t like it, you can just shake your head. Instead.”
Looking at such a phenomenon, Soyeomra said:

“Then I will kill the Lord and his subordinates outside. Don’t worry about the traces. I hate leaving traces, so I get rid of them.”
Only after hearing that does Beomdong realize
that time has already passed and the Biryongdae are not coming to provide support.
Those who should have come a long time ago have not come yet.
‘…no way.’
It meant something happened.
Beomdong’s eyes start to tremble. What on earth is going on?
When doubts and anxiety start to tighten around his throat.
Seeing such a phenomenon, Soyeomra added.
“If you still can’t decide, would it be okay if I bet on the daughter of the great lord in Honam?”
“…!!”
At Soyeom-ra’s words, Beom-dong’s breathing became turbid and blocked.
The fact that Beomdong’s daughter is in Honam is a fact that not even many in the Maeng leadership know.
In the first place, as it was an information agency, it was the point at which personal information was processed.
Soyeom brought out that information and brought it in front of Beomdong.
“what….”
The moment when Beomdong tried to somehow cover up the story as if it didn’t happen.
“It would cost a lot of money to send your daughter to a good school in Honam. You can’t stay here like this. Your daughter is already seven years old.”
“…”
Kwuk.
This is much more detailed and precise information.
After hearing this, Beomdong had to clench his fist.
“Uh… how…”
“It doesn’t really matter how I knew. What matters now is the Lord.”
“Oh… what the heck. The Jeongpa’s teeth… are bringing up family…!!”
Exactly.
As Soyeomra ignored Beomdong’s words and lightly snapped her fingers, blue flames swirled throughout the room.
Soon, the darkness disappeared and her vision brightened.
“The government is fucking crazy.”
Soyeonra said, poking her little finger into her ear as if she had heard something disgusting.
“I can see it for myself. To fight those fucking guys, you have to be a fucking worse guy than a normal guy.”
As he said that, he looked at Beomdong. Unlike the bright room, his eyes seemed to have become darker.
“Let’s just make a clear choice. If you like it, nod. If you don’t, shake your head.”
“…”
As it gets brighter, the smile he’s wearing becomes more visible.
“I’m going to count from one to five now. If you don’t answer within that time, I’ll assume you don’t want to do it.”
After speaking, Soyeonra raised her hand.
Then she slowly folded her fingers… .
“One… five.”
“Ha, I will do it!!”
Beomdong nodded quickly at the fingers that jumped through the order in an instant.
You said one to five, but I thought you only counted from one to five.
After hearing the answer, Soyeonra looked satisfied.

“That’s a good choice. It saves you, saves your subordinates, and saves your daughter. It’s a very good choice.”
“…”
After that, he gets up from the chair he was sitting in.
Then, he walks towards the door, leaving Beomdong behind.
Beomdong looked at her strangely.
Could it really be that this is the end?
Leaving only a warning not to do it, and not even imposing a ban or anything?
Beomdong looks at Soyeomra in disbelief.
“I don’t want to bother seeing you off, so just go on your own.”
He opened the door without any hesitation.
Squeak.
When I open the closed door, I can see outside.
“…!!”
Beomdong’s eyes widened as if they were lanterns as he checked outside the door.
This was because there were nearly ten people lying on the field in front of the residence.
All of the fallen were wearing white uniforms with crimson embroidery.
They were the warriors of the Biryongdae.
“… I, I see.”
How could those who should have been lying in wait in a somewhat distant location be lying there?
When the whole city was drooling at the strange situation.
I saw someone standing in front of them.
She is a woman of rather small stature with short hair.
Just looking at the hair, it was hard to tell if it was a man or not, but I could tell from the appearance and chest that it was a woman.
She was holding a stick that was taller than me and was looking at a butterfly flying in front of her.
After chasing the butterfly for a while, her gaze moved toward Soyeomra, perhaps because of the presence of people.
“Oh my god!!”
As soon as he saw Soyeonra, he was seen running towards her with a bright smile.
“I did everything you told me to do!!”
He ran towards Soyeom-ra like a puppy that saw its owner.
Soyeom-ra asked after seeing him.
“Did you kill them all?”
It was too eerie a question to be a greeting.
Even more bizarre was the woman’s response to the question.
“No! I tried to kill him, but I didn’t. The leader told me not to kill him!”
“Yeah. Good job.”
“Did I do well? I did well. If you did well, you should receive a reward. So, what should I ask for as a reward? What should I ask for!?”
The woman who kept talking to herself as if she was possessed by a god.
“okay!”
“hmm?”
“Now, will you really mate with me-.”
He tried to talk as if he wanted compensation, but he couldn’t finish the conversation.
Boom-!
“Snap!”
Before he could finish speaking, Soyeomra hit the woman in the head with her fist.
The woman’s small head shook with a rough crashing sound.
Advertisements
dump!
The woman fell to the floor, apparently unconscious.
It was a single blow.
… dead?
Beom-dong, who was watching, had that thought for a moment, but judging from the way the fallen body was shaking, it didn’t seem like he was dead.
“Anyway, shit, this is why I didn’t want to call you. I got annoyed the moment I saw you.”
Soyeomra waves her hands as if she is going crazy.
“Nahi.”
“Yes, master.”
“Put him away. When he wakes up, gag him and tie him up. Put him in a corner until I get there.”
“All right.”
At Soyeomra’s command, the woman next to him took the fallen man and disappeared.
After that, Soyeomra sighed deeply and looked back.
I lock eyes with Beomdong, who is completely flustered.
“What are you doing?”
“…?”
“Are you going to just stand there blankly?”
At that moment, when I was wondering what he meant, Soyeom-ra pointed to the members of the Biryongdae lying on the floor and spoke.
“I need to eat, so take these and get out of here.”
After hearing the story, Beomdong checked the number of people.
Even if it’s not possible, it’s a number that looks like it’s nine.
Does that mean I should take them all with me?
As confusion filled Beomdong’s eyes, Soyeomra looked at him and continued speaking.
“Or, shall I banish you from this life?”
“…”
“If you think about it as easy, that is easier.”
Soyeon said that with a deep frown.
After hearing this, Beomdong had to hurriedly get rid of his subordinates with his injured body.
