The World’s Best Childhood Friend Episode 708 (708/750)
The Tang dynasty has been kidnapping orphans and conducting human experiments on them.
One day, news spread throughout the Central Plains.
It was one of the Four Great Powers and was responsible for distributing seven-tenths of the ironware in the Central Plains.
Before the Blood Demon War, it was classified as a sect, but it rose to the status of a righteous sect after preventing the Blood Calamity.
One of the pillars of the sect that many people have believed in and followed until now.
Guardian of Sacheon.
Sacheondangmun.
Many were shocked by the fact that they had committed such unimaginable evil deeds.
It is said that the underground chamber where the Tang family was hiding was filled with the corpses of numerous children and monsters.
The Murim Alliance checked the records and said that the experiments had been ongoing for at least a century.
A century.
It’s been a hundred years.
How many children have died in the past hundred years?
People were angry and angry again.
The Poison King accepted the offer without making any excuses.
The people’s anger did not subside.
To make the Tang family a martial arts community.
Not only did they get off at Sadaesega, but they also ordered them to be driven out to Sapa and executed.
People wished for Maengcheok like that, but the Murim Alliance never did so.
It was discovered that the elders had been carrying out the work without the knowledge of the current head of the household, the Dokwang, and the Dokwang subsequently executed the elders on the spot and passed his own judgment.
Considering his achievements in protecting the Central Plains as one of the four great statesmen in the past, I will not punish him.
However, it limits transactions that were being conducted exclusively through blind allies.
In the future, in the election to select the leader of the Murim Alliance, the Tang clan will be deprived of their right to participate and vote for three generations.
The Murim Alliance imposed this punishment on the Tang clan.
In reality, it wasn’t that severe of a punishment.
Rather, it is loose compared to the others.
From the beginning, if something like this had happened, the merchants who had been dealing with the Tang family would have withdrawn on their own.
Since the Tang clan had never been involved in matters involving the leader of the martial arts world, many said that this was just a show-off punishment.
Although it was true that the Tang clan had committed a crime, the world saw it as the Murim Alliance comforting them for their past hardships and showing some consideration.
A cult that killed countless lives for human experiments.
The Murim Alliance is trying to get past that.
There was still a lot of talk about this.
However, due to several incidents that occurred immediately after, the number of people who doubted the Murim Alliance had decreased.
but.

The Tang Dynasty was not like that.
“Damn things. I’m sorry for trusting them and thinking that Sacheon was safe.”
“The Four Great Powers, the Political Party. How can you commit such evil deeds with such words on your back?”
“The master of the house, the Dokwang, didn’t know about this? Is that really true?”
The party’s position was weakening day by day.
He said that the King and his blood relatives had no involvement in the incident, but even fewer people believed him.
How could the head of the household not know what was happening in Sega?
I didn’t believe it. Even if it were true, I wouldn’t believe it.
In their minds, the Tang Dynasty was already that kind of place.
“As expected. It’s a place that uses poison, so the aftertaste is bad.”
“You weren’t originally from Sapa. It was just that Maeng quietly let you pass.”
“There’s a lot of talk about the craftsman’s house and all. But wasn’t it originally a place created by assassins? It was an untrustworthy place.”
A loud noise is heard.
A word that insults my family.
A word used to insult the Poison King.
There are even words of self-deprecation there.
A fallen noble family.
Sacheondangmun.
Whenever he heard such words, Tang So-yeol, the blood relative of the Tang family, wanted to ask.
Why don’t you say anything?
I wanted to ask my father, who was a dictator, a lot of questions.
But, that didn’t happen.
He said to his sons and daughters while making his choice as the king.
‘Even if we are without sin, being born as blood relatives means that we bear the burden of the will of the Sega family.’
It is the fault of the family not to know what was going on inside.
There is no excuse.
Also, unfortunately, your father’s sins become your sins.
That’s what responsibility is.
So, I decided to carry it.
Although Tang So-yeol felt wronged and saddened by the words of the Poison King, he was unable to say anything.
What is unfair?
Didn’t the Poison King say that the sins of the Sega are the sins of the head of the family, and this is inevitably the sin of the bloodline.
Tang So-yeol was also in Sega’s arms without knowing anything.
I didn’t know anything because I was just a clan and a later index. This isn’t a world where such things would work.
Countless people turned their backs.
Advertisements
Countless people hurl insults at them.
To be honest, Dang So-yeol wasn’t particularly scared of that.
If it was truly his own sin, then those who cursed him should also accept it.
It didn’t hurt.
I was just afraid of something different.
Just in case.
If only there was one chance.
‘I’m afraid he’ll get hurt too.’
I wonder if the precious people around me will be harmed by this.
Tang Xiaoyeol was terrified of it.
Even if my life falls apart.
I’m afraid they too will get hurt in the collapse.
The world is dark.
The lights that fill his surroundings are so splendid, but my place has become even darker. If I lose the reputation of the prestigious family that I barely managed to maintain and instead cause damage,
What can he give him?
There was nothing.
There are many who give love, and with this crude heart alone, I cannot be by his side.
I knew it deep down.
Maybe he will understand.
Because that’s the kind of person he is.
However, I was not strong enough to endure with just that understanding.
The good news is that there was at least a chance.
-I’ll turn you into a monster.
A person who came in the middle of the night.
The best killer in the Central Plains, who is now my master. The Dark King.
He said that he was taking him as his disciple at his father’s request.
He also told me to tell him if I didn’t like it.
He warned that his teaching methods would be very harsh and cruel, and that it would be incomparable to the suffering Tang Xiaoyeol had felt throughout his life.
I don’t understand English.
How could the Dark King come to him and say such things?
I didn’t understand though.
-i look forward to.
There was only one choice from the beginning.
Dang So-yeol became the disciple of the dark king.
That was the only way he could choose.

Time passed like that.
As the Dark King had warned, it was a very painful time.
How many times have I died?
I have experienced countless instances where it literally meant death.
‘Become numb to death.’
It becomes dull.
It took me a year to become numb to the thought of killing myself and not fear the pain.
‘Become numb to killing.’
It becomes dull.
It took another year before killing my opponent became normal.
‘Not bad.’
Finally, after killing many, his eyes stopped shaking.
It was the first compliment the Dark King gave to Dang So-yeol.
The moment I heard that compliment, I realized that a lot had changed.
Not only my realm, but also myself had changed in some way.
How much time has passed?
He said it was only two years, but in Dang So-yeol’s eyes, that was absolutely not the case.
The world that the Dark King created had many things distorted. Perhaps even time was distorted.
The corpses of children piled up at my feet.
Even though this was an illusion created by the Dark King, I didn’t feel anything when I saw it.
It’s broken.
Tang So-yeol judged himself.
If you do, will you regret it?
No, it is not.
“…ah….”
Other people’s blood and my tears flow together.
My heart was pounding.
Now, she feels like she can be by his side too.
I can’t see the realm I dreamed of or my ruined self.
For Dang So-yeol, that was all there was to it.
Saaaaah-! I’m being kicked out of the world I was trapped in.
The darkness disappeared and the blood on his body also disappeared.
A peaceful night and moon come.
The king looked at Tang Xiaoyeol and said.
“Get down.”
Advertisements
“yes.”
Now I can finally see him.
******************
A roaring sound fills my ears.
Dang So-yeol was standing on the stage below the packed audience.
The Divine Dragon Martial Arts Festival prepared by Maeng.
Tang So-yeol was present at the festival.
The fresh air brushes the tip of my nose.
The weather was unusually nice.
At the same time, sounds were heard from all directions.
“You’re Dokbong. I heard you participated in the martial arts competition. It was true.”
“If you’re talking about Dokbong… are you talking about that clan?”
“Look at that hair.”
Tang So-yeol’s dark green hair.
Even the green eyes beneath it.
Facts proving that he was a blood relative of the Tang family were hanging on his body.
“Tsk.”
Someone who saw that clicked their tongue.
“You’ve got a plate of iron on your face. Where the hell do you think you are…!”
“This is truly disgusting.”
“You’re going to the festival of blindness in this situation? Are you crazy?”
Everyone frowned as they recalled the things the Tang clan had done.
The voice mixed with enthusiasm spreads around as if resonating.
Everyone shouted.
Even as he heard those words, Dang So-yeol had an indifferent expression on his face.
Is it nothing?
The form also seemed like that of a sinner keeping silent.
It seemed like he was just sitting there enjoying the breeze.
The person who was watching this Tang So-yeol opened his mouth.
“How about going down now?”
Dang So-yeol, who heard the words, looks at the other person.
Grenade launcher.
Tang So-yeol’s non-combatant counterpart was looking at her and laughing at her.
“I’m worried that it might be too cruel for a young woman to accept.”
Insults are pouring in from all sides.
Advertisements
It’s too rough and cruel for a woman who hasn’t even grown up yet to handle.
“Now, please show me your consideration. Go down comfortably.”
Rather than being defeated and going down on stage.
It might be a little better to go down with a little more pressure.
Let’s say the grenade has that meaning.
“Pfft.”
Dang So-yeol, who had been listening quietly, burst into laughter.
Yu Gan-geom’s eyebrows furrowed when he saw that.
“Are you laughing?”
“Thank you for your concern. I will take your concern with great care.”
“under!”
Yu Gan-geom burst into laughter at Dang So-yeol’s attitude.
“As expected from a family of sinners, they are shameless.”
Changed attitude.
“I was just trying to be considerate before something more embarrassing happens, since it looks like you have a lot of enemies.”
“Yes, that’s why I’m telling you that you don’t have to do that.”
“I know I made a mistake last time, but do you really think you can win?”
The fact that I am standing here facing Dang So-yeol.
That alone didn’t make me like the Grenade Sword.
At best, it’s a review index.
What’s the point of trying to knock a woman down?
‘The good news is that public sentiment is at the level of traitors.’
The birth of a Tang family.
Even if you leave aside the fact that you are a young person, just taking down a woman like that will raise your standing.
‘It seems like he has some tricks up his sleeve, but that’s it.’
I momentarily forgot that the Tang clan’s martial arts were specialized in dealing with secret guests.
So, I was unable to keep my guard up and fell for Dang So-yeol’s trickery.
Grenade Sword thought so.
Slurp.
He draws his sword and says.
“Woman, you made a big mistake.”
As Yuttangeom raised his sword, the air around him began to change.
The blowing wind has died down.
“If you had that kind of skill, you shouldn’t have shown it to me. Then you might have had a chance.”
The understanding has already been completed.
Advertisements
There is no more chance for Tang Xiaoyeol to win.
“There is no second chance. So, I will go down now… .”
“You still talk too much. It’s a little noisy.”
Dang So-yeol cut off Yu Gan-geom’s words.
“This bitch!!”
Eventually, Yutgengeom can no longer hold back and lets out a volley of anger.
Phew—!!!
The pressure from the grenade launcher envelops the entire stage.
When this happened, the audience erupted in admiration.
“… My hands are shaking just looking at it. Is this the real deal?”
“The Wind Forest and Fireball Kwon was great, but the Yu Gan Sword was definitely on a different level.”
The Wind Forest and Firefight, which has just crossed the wall.
He could also influence nature as he was a man of the Hwagyeong clan, but Yuttangeom was on a different level.
Space is being destroyed.
A crack appeared and an afterimage appeared in the air.
Just by the energy alone, you can influence your surroundings.
That’s the scenery.
“Do you believe in a half-and-half face? Or do you believe in a clever dark swordsman and a poisonous swordsman? Look straight at your opponent. I am a grenade sword.”
He aimed the tip of his sword at Dang So-yeol.
“What can you do in such an open space? You have no chance.”
“…”
At Yu Gan-geom’s words, Dang So-yeol looked around for a moment.
He was right. There was nothing.
The clear view is refreshing and soothing to the eyes.
The weather was so clear that it was impossible to hide, making it the worst possible situation for a would-be assassin.
Tang So-yeol’s gaze, which was looking around like that, turned somewhere.
Two eyes quietly watching this place.
This is where Guyangcheon is, looking at himself with an expressionless face.
He was watching this place with his arms folded tightly.
You can see his arms shaking slightly.
It seemed like he was forcibly holding back something.
Tang So-yeol laughed at that sight.
Although he looks blunt and sharp, his eyes are always focused on his surroundings.
He is such a kind person.
At first, I fell in love with you just by seeing your face.
Advertisements
Now, it seemed okay for his face to feel like that of a sleeping dragon prince or a saint prince.
He must have loved it because it was him.
That was the belief.
so.
‘I’ll show you.’
Now you don’t have to worry about yourself.
Dang So-yeol wanted to prove it.
He takes his gaze away from Guyangcheon and directs it at Yutangeom.
“that’s right.”
“what?”
“Nothing. But that doesn’t really matter.”
As he speaks, Dang So-yeol takes something out of his bosom.
It was a knife.
Not just one, but dozens.
Tang So-yeol took out two daggers and a knife.
WHACK! CLANG!
“her?”
I threw everything I was holding on the ground.
“…What is this?”
Yu Gan-geom asked incredulously, but Tang So-yeol checked his body to see if there were any more and ended up laughing.
“I’m ready too.”
“…”
“I promise. When I deal with you. I won’t use any secret weapons. Of course, I won’t use any poison.”
“haha….”
Yu Gan-geom bursts into laughter at Dang So-yeol’s words.
His face became increasingly distorted in an evil way as he burst into laughter.
“Are you kidding me right now?”
“yes.”
“… This bitch…!”
Geuggeuggeuggeuk-! A clear sword ray seeps into the Grenade Sword’s sword.
“Okay, fine. How dare you insult me like this… I promise too.”
Under the crushing pressure, the grenade spoke with life in its veins.
“I will definitely scar your pretty face.”
Tang So-yeol laughed again at the words he spoke while holding back his anger.
“I’ll be looking forward to it.”

Thud.
Yuttan took a stance, calming his heavy breathing.
The referee looks at the two with somewhat worried eyes.
They both took positions.
The referee looked at it and then whispered quietly.
“start.”
Announces the outbreak of war.
Even after hearing that, the grenade launcher did not move.
Don’t rush in.
He didn’t let his guard down.
I don’t know what I might have done.
I was convinced because of our last meeting.
Leaving aside the human grenade launcher, the unmanned grenade launcher could be known.
Tang So-yeol was a formidable force.
No matter how bad the situation is for the undercover agent, you must never let your guard down.
At the moment when he was aiming his sword at Dang So-yeol with great caution.
“You know what?”
Dang So-yeol opened his mouth in a calm voice.
“I hate clear skies.”
“…What are you saying all of a sudden?”
You hate the sky? That was such a random comment.
“As you said, there is no place to hide. I realized that I am not a person who can become light. From then on, I hated the clear sky.”
“under?”
Is this just small talk to ease your guard?
However, the more he listened to Yu Gan-geom, the more alert he became.
“Yes, it cannot be light. The Master said the same thing.”
Dang So-yeol recalled the dark king’s words.
When asked what he should do to shine more brightly, the Dark King said:
I don’t know how to become light.
Since I had become a dark guest, I could not become light, and I had to forget how to become light.
What shines more is not their role.
If so, what should I do? Tang So-yeol asked in frustration.
The king answered like this.
“If you can’t be the light, then become a greater darkness.”
Darkness that can consume light. That’s what I said.
Advertisements
The Dark King certainly said so, but Tang Xiaoyeol did not like those words very much.
“That’s not very good. It’s just there because the light is warm. You can’t eat it.”
“What on earth are you talking about…?”
“So, I decided to become the shade.”
I can’t be the light, and I don’t want to eat the light.
If we do, there should be shade so that the light can rest.
Isn’t that darkness too?
Darkness spreads for the light.
Yeah, shade would have been enough.
When you’ve been playing hard and are tired, you want to take a break.
Like a tree in the forest that blocks the sunlight and allows you to lean against it and rest.
Tang So-yeol decided to become that darkness.
Will be his shadow.
A shade that will stand by his side and provide him with a place to rest whenever he wants.
He decided that he would do it.
This is proof of that.
Tang So-yeol extended his hand.
“…!”
Ouch!
The grenade sword flinches at the action and spits out sword energy.
It was meant to react immediately no matter what happened, but the grenade launcher probably didn’t know.
This means that it is something that cannot be solved by reacting alone.
Dang So-yeol looked at him and muttered.
“A thousand years ago, six days had passed since the wall was built.”
At the same time as speaking.
Kwaaaaaaaah—!!!
The shadow of Tang Xiaoyeol spreads its territory and engulfs the stage.
In an instant, a black curtain was placed over the stage.
“What the…!”
The view is obstructed.
The grenade sword swallowed in the darkness looks around in confusion.
I couldn’t see anything.
I instinctively burst into excitement.
It was to check where Dang So-yeol was.
Phew-!
Advertisements
“Ugh!?”
Something burst out from behind Yutgengeom’s body.
It’s not a sword.
It was a hand.
“Cough…!”
The grenade sword looked down, dripping blood.
The vision was extremely dark. I shouldn’t be able to see anything, but strangely enough, I could see the pure white hand poking through my body.
Push-!
The hand that was pierced comes out again.
My heart was pierced.
Thud-! The grenade launcher collapses instantly.
Death? The grenade felt death.
As Yuttangeom slowly fell, a soft voice was heard in his ear.
“once.”
Dang So-yeol said this while looking at the grenade sword.
Just this once.
His hell had five more rounds left.
