The World’s Best Childhood Friend Episode 702 (702/750)
A situation where many people are standing in line.
A black-haired woman looking at her hand as if she was possessed. Dang So-yeol asked while looking at Bong-soon.
“… Miss Bong. Are you feeling well?”
“huh!”
Bong-soon smiles brightly after hearing the question.
“It’s so soft. I want to touch it again. When I meet that guy, should I let him touch it again?”
“… I don’t know what it felt like, but my heart was pounding.”
Even “oppa”. Tang So-yeol felt dizzy upon hearing the title.
The divine dragon of Shaolin.
The Generation of Meteors. He is the leader of countless geniuses and one of the most famous martial artists of the past few years.
Even though everyone was already focused on the fact that he appeared, he barged in and tried to touch the dragon’s head.
Tang So-yeol, who was watching, really thought he was going to faint.
…even.
‘What makes you touch it?’
Shinryong allowed Bongseon, who ran to him to touch his head, to touch it.
That just made it even stranger.
‘Is this consideration?’
To put it nicely, it’s pure.
To be exact, it is a somewhat lacking Bongseon.
Did Shenlong intentionally treat her like that?
It is possible that this would have been the case for a Shaolin figure known for being benevolent.
‘What should I say… .’
It seems that the way Shinryong looked at Bongseon was not always like that.
Compassion and consideration.
It’s a bit different from that feeling.
At least that’s what it seemed to Dang So-yeol.
‘No, of course not.’
Surely not.
A Shaolin figure who abandoned all desires and followed the Buddha’s will would not have given in to desire.
Tang So-yeol thought it was just his own delusion.
“Lady Bong.”
“huh?”
“I was really lucky earlier. Damn… well, it would be extremely rude to ask someone who doesn’t have hair to touch their head.”
It wasn’t a matter of having hair or not, but Tang So-yeol was so flustered that he started talking nonsense.

“Okay! Okay!”
However, Bong-soon nodded with a smile, as if she understood what was being said.
And then he speaks to Dang So-yeol.
“That’s why. I won’t kill that guy, but I’ll spare his life once. I’m grateful.”
“…”
It was a rather eerie statement, somehow.
It was even more so because those words were spoken with an innocent expression.
“Bong So… .”
“It’s almost closing time! Everyone, please line up!”
At the moment when Dang So-yeol was about to ask Bong-soon something.
A warning came from the blind man.
“Ah! I have to go now! Sister, I’ll go first!”
“sleep-!”
Before I could even stop her, Bongsoon ran towards the color on her nametag.
Dang So-yeol shouted as he saw that.
“Don’t forget what Confucius said! Moderation!!”
“yes!”
Bongsoon didn’t even look back and just waved her arms in agreement.
Tang So-yeol had to let out a deep sigh as he watched that.
“Oh my, this is a headache… .”
Of all days… No, it just so happened that the preliminaries were on the same day.
I said I understood because Goyangcheon told me to just be lenient, but I feel more tired than I expected.
A tomboy who is out of control.
How did such a woman come to know Guyangcheon?
‘What are you going to do now?’
Tang So-yeol narrowed his eyes as he thought of Guyangcheon.
It’s been three years since the incident at the Tang Dynasty.
During that time, Guyangcheon was very busy.
Except for the time when he was away from home to receive training.
It was truly an absurd time, even just seeing it in person.
Gu Yangcheon practiced an absurd amount of training every day.
If I had time, I would study about poisons or go out with others.
That outing was actually a repetition of a tense expression, as if there was some purpose behind it.
And then I came back and practiced again.
I’ve hardly ever seen him sleep properly, let alone rest.

As time passed, I started to see some faces I didn’t know before.
All those he brought back were broken people, and Goo Yangcheon’s eyes looking at them were as cold as frost.
Should I say I hate it?
Or, should I say, avoidance.
He kept saving people while showing enough emotions to reveal everything.
What on earth are they gathering so many people for?
I was curious but couldn’t ask.
Because I knew that Guyangcheon would have a hard time with this question.
There was one time when there was a terrible smell of blood.
Even at that time, Tang So-yeol couldn’t bring himself to ask what Guyangcheon had been doing.
I later found out that he had defeated demons and at the same time annihilated the Sapha people who had been invading the village.
As for the condensed milk, Gu Yangcheon said:
[I just needed to vent some anger.]
Instead, he answered with these words.
Even though I knew it wasn’t true, I could vaguely tell that it was true.
It’s getting buried.
As time passed by each day, Guyangcheon changed little by little.
My level has improved and my knowledge has increased.
The head of the Tang family, the Dokwang, said that Guyangcheon was a much smarter person than he thought.
People often say that he has a talent for studying.
I never asked twice for the knowledge I was taught, and I mostly memorized what I saw once.
This is something I told you when we were just the two of us.
They said that if Guyangcheon had been born into the Tang family, he would have become at least an elder.
In Dang So-yeol’s view, the expression on the King’s face was such that not only the elders but also the head of the household seemed okay.
Perhaps he couldn’t say that because of his pride.
He is a talented person.
If the King of Poisons’s opinion is true, then Guyangcheon has transcended the ordinary.
Guyangcheon used to evaluate himself rather harshly.
That’s because I’m dull.
He grumbled and acted as if he were a genius and would have made light of something like this.
‘What kind of genius are you talking about?’
Who is the genius that Goyangcheon sees?
Are these the three deities that exist in heaven?
Or maybe other Six Dragons and Three Peaks?
If it’s the Three Kingdoms, it’s incredibly subtle to hit the Six Dragons and Three Peaks.
‘…No matter who you bring, isn’t Prince Gu more outstanding?’
Advertisements
Dangsoyeol is also called Dokbong, one of the six dragons and three peaks.
When thinking of anyone else, including himself, Guyangcheon was superior.
No, there is no comparison.
Who would dare to compare?
In Dang So-yeol’s view, Gu Yang-cheon was a genius sent from heaven.
The power and wisdom that he possesses, and the presence that controls those around him.
And a handsome face there too.
There is no one in the world more perfect than Guyangcheon.
It’s because I have a slightly (?) choleric personality and am overly picky.
‘It’s a wedding dress… .’
Women’s happiness.
Tang So-yeol smiled bitterly as he recalled that word.
“ha.”
And then he let out a sigh that was rising from within.
It’s so stuffy.
‘What should I do?’
The day Namgungbia left for the North Sea.
I still remember the expression on Guyangcheon’s face when he saw that.
At that time, Dang So-yeol was sure.
That he would not be able to take her place.
As you undergo hellish training, your realm becomes higher.
So I reached a level I had only dreamed of.
‘What a pity… .’
Tang So-yeol felt an inexplicable sense of regret.
I tried my best to be by his side, so what could I possibly regret?
Now, I wonder if I should look for a position that I can’t get.
Even though I didn’t think it would be like that, I already knew.
‘Because giving up isn’t always easy.’
No matter how many things you let go of, there are some things you can’t let go of.
Tang So-yeol smiled faintly as he recalled this.
at that time.
“Tsk.”
A strange sound was heard from behind.
Tang So-yeol wiped his smile and looked at the owner of the voice.
It’s not that far away, if you consider the distance.

A man who was secretly attracting people’s attention was looking at Dang So-yeol.
The man was someone that Dang So-yeol also knew.
His frowning face lets us know that he does not look favorably on Tang Xiaoyeol.
Grenade launcher.
A martial artist known as a master of the art of painting and an excellent swordsman.
He was the person who had a small fight with Dang So-yeol last time.
Seeing him here, it looks like he’s also competing in the first round.
“…”
Yu Gan-geom and Dang So-yeol, who were looking at themselves, met each other’s gaze.
It’s really interesting.
The emotions that had been burning hot as I thought of him cooled down so easily as soon as I saw the author.
Both my body and my gaze sank.
As I was looking at the grenade launcher as if I was looking at a rock on the ground, I saw him slowly walking towards me.
The distance is gradually narrowing.
When they were less than three steps apart, Yu Gan-geom looked at Dang So-yeol and opened his mouth.
“I guess that friend isn’t here today.”
Tang So-yeol nodded at Yu Gan-geom’s words.
“If it’s that friend, who are you talking about?”
“You mean the little guy who insulted me, the one called Guga’s Soyeomra?”
“…”
“I was so curious that I looked into who I was. I found out that I was a better friend than I thought.”
The corners of Yutgengeom’s mouth slightly rise.
“I was wondering why he acted so confidently towards me…. I guess that’s understandable since he’s such an outstanding friend. He was like that when he was younger too.”
When the story of Guyangcheon came up, a wrinkle appeared between Tang Soyeol’s eyebrows.
“With that much talent, you can’t help but be arrogant. I heard you’re just past your prime. You’re too young to be immature.”
Judging from the way he spoke as if he knew what he was talking about, it seemed like he had looked into it a lot.
“Honey, I guess you believed in the rumors about my abilities and acted like that.”
His skills are rumored.
The meaning of those words was no different.
Few people believe the stories spread about Soyeomra.
The youngest Hwagyeong was found to be a false rumor as she was attached to the dragon.
The story that he stopped the Hwagyeong attack alone is also obviously false. There must have been other interventions in the Shinryongwan incident.
However, since the rumor has already spread, there is no need to try to stop it.
That was the story that was currently going on with Soyeonra.
Of course, due to the short fierce battle with the Grenade Sword, there was a change in the latter index that Soyeomra was strong.
Advertisements
There was more talk that Yuttangeom could not have shown his true feelings.
That goes without saying.
How could the latter index have separated the grenade sword and the sword? It must have simply been the grenade sword that was used for teaching.
People believed so.
After hearing Yu Gan-geom’s words, Tang So-yeol said.
“Senior, I wonder what you want to say.”
He cut off the conversation as if he didn’t want to listen any more.
Then, Yutanggeom’s face crumples for a moment.
“Our Lady of the Party is still rude. It seems that both that friend and Lady of the Party still don’t know their place.”
That lump of flesh with swollen shoulders due to frothy rumors.
A child of a noble family who is arrogant and cannot forget the past.
It seemed like he still didn’t know the topic.
“Oman….”
Tang So-yeol smiled after thinking about Yu Gan-geom’s words.
It’s different from the smile I used to have when I thought of Guyangcheon.
This was almost a complete laugh.
“Who is talking to whom….”
“What?”
Yu Gan-geom tried to speak while gritting his teeth, but Tang So-yeol spoke first.
“I think it’s you, Senior, who has your eyes covered and can’t see outside. Soyeomra… Unlike Prince Gu, Senior is probably past the age of being immature. It’s a shame.”
We can tolerate being immature, but you’re too old to do that. Grow up.
It was a word that had that kind of meaning.
“Ha. This bitch really…!”
Yu Gan-geom understands the words and reaches out to grab Tang So-yeol.
but.
Wham-!
“what?”
There was nothing in the grenade launcher’s hand.
The Tang Dynasty fever has already disappeared.
Where did you go?
Yu Gan-geom looks confused and tries to find Dang So-yeol.
Kuk-!
“…!”
Ouch!
I felt something behind Yutgen’s back.
Advertisements
Something was pressing down on his back.
“You know what?”
Yutangkeom’s breathing wavers at the sound of the voice.
It’s a sugar fever.
Before he knew it, Dang So-yeol was holding Yu Gan-geom’s back.
When did you move?
The grenade launcher didn’t notice.
“The plum wine from the movie theater isn’t that tasty. It’s strange. They’re promoting it as their signature liquor, but they’re saying it doesn’t taste good.”
It’s a bit of a random remark, but Yu Gan-geom’s body stiffens when he hears it.
Movie theater.
It’s a familiar place.
That was the name of the inn where Yutanggeom was staying.
“The price is a little more expensive than the surrounding area. The walls are thin, so the soundproofing is poor. It seems that Lady Hwa-wol moans louder than Lady Yang-wol.”
“…”
Cold sweat is running down my face.
Hwa-wol, the name of the prostitute that Yu-Gan-Geom held last night. Yang-wol was the name of the prostitute that he held last night.
“What are you talking about now?”
“I’m telling you this because I’m worried about my juniors.”
It’s creepy.
Yuttangeom already knew what that story was about.
“Senior, when you drink, you drink with your left hand. It’s strange since I can see you’re right-handed.”
“Four years….”
“I heard you always drink plum wine after finishing your training. Do you like it? Yesterday, there were two bottles. Yesterday, there were four bottles. The martial arts festival is just around the corner, so I think it would be better to cut down on drinking.”
Yutangkeom’s cheek began to tremble.
He said that he was a bit nervous because he was blind, but when did he start watching me so closely?
“It’s also good to let go of fixed habits. You never know when someone might have poisoned your drink after training.”
“this-!”
He looks back in anger.
At that moment.
Bam.
Something sharp struck the heart of the grenade launcher.
It was Tang Xiaoyeol’s dagger.
A very close distance where no one can see you.
There, Dang So-yeol aimed a dagger at Yu Gan-geom’s heart.
“Don’t send people around unnecessarily. It’s starting to get annoying to clean up.”
Advertisements
Tang So-yeol whispers in my ear with a soft breath.
“From now on, live with caution. No matter what you do, I don’t know what I’ll do there.”
Go to the back yard.
Whether you eat or not.
Whether you drink alcohol or not.
Especially when holding a woman.
I can do anything for you, so just live with tension.
Yu Gan-geom’s eyes kept shaking at the warning that Dang So-yeol gave.
Is it because of the warning?
Yu Gan-geom couldn’t say anything else and just looked at Dang So-yeol.
Looking at him like that, Dang So-yeol smiles brightly.
“Well then, I’ll see you next time, senior.”
After a brief greeting, he walked away lightly. Tang So-yeol thought as he walked.
‘Should I kill him?’
It’s annoying that you keep coming at me like this.
At least if he hadn’t mentioned Guyangcheon, he would have been a man, and since Guyangcheon was cool for trying to protect him, he saw the benefit in that and left him alone.
‘You keep talking nonsense for your age.’
I guess I’ll have to clean it up.
Thinking so, Dang So-yeol also headed to his group.
******************
A back alley in Hanam.
At that time, the second preliminary round was being prepared in Hanchang Maeng.
A figure hiding something in his bosom was walking cautiously around.
“Phew… phew.”
I walk slowly and hide in the alleys.
It kept moving while maintaining a certain interval.
At the same time, the eyes looking around here and there are extremely busy.
Even though he looked obviously not normal, he was hiding so no one around him noticed.
‘Come on, hurry up…’
You have to send the information you find out to people.
He was driven by that single thought.
There is no problem with the facial expression or the gait.
If we go on like this, we’ll be able to get away without getting caught.
The eyes of the person who came to mind were filled with excitement.
‘It’s the bloodline of the swordsman.’
Advertisements
The character chewed his lips as he thought about the information he had confirmed in the blind.
This is because an entity that appears to be the bloodline of the previous inspector was discovered.
There is no way you can be mistaken.
Although the appearance was ambiguous, the object the child had was clearly something he knew.
‘I have to tell him about this…!’
This is something you absolutely cannot miss.
The moment the character turned back into the alley to report this.
“It’s too much to turn around.”
Kwak-!
“… Ugh!”
A hand shot out from in front and immediately grabbed his neck and lifted him up.
“Oh, I’ll just go a little faster. Why are you going around like this? It’s not like you’ll get caught if you do that.”
“Ugh…!”
He lets out a groan of pain in a sudden situation.
I can’t even rebel.
The moment his neck was grabbed, the character must have felt an incredible sense of helplessness.
Who is it?
Are you a blind person?
The character shifted his gaze in pain and looked at the other person.
The first thing that catches the eye is his somewhat difficult-looking facial features.
Then, I shivered once at the sharp eyes and twice at the eyes filled with light.
It’s a familiar face.
Because he was one of the beings the character was aware of.
“Cow… Cow inflammation… .”
The character tries to say the other person’s name.
“I thought it would take a while. It bit the bait faster than I expected. If I had been a little later, I would have missed it.”
No matter what he said, Goo Yang-cheon seemed uninterested and just went about his business.
“… Okay. I’m busy, so let me ask you something quickly.”
With his remaining hand, Goo Yang-cheon removes the cloth covering his opponent.
Then the hidden face is revealed.
Her facial features are delicate and slender, although scars are visible on her skin.
Goyangcheon smiled with eyes, nose, and mouth that did not look like those of a man.
“What business do the nuns of Sacheon have with our crazy woman?”
The nuns of Sacheon.
One of the nine orphanages comprised entirely of nuns.

It was a word meaning Emei sect.
