The World’s Best Childhood Friend Episode 715 (715/750)
After hearing the answer, Cheol Ji-seon is silent for a moment.
Since you have expressed your affirmation, you will get some kind of response.
I waited for a moment, judging by that.
Knock knock.
Tap the table with your fingertips.
I wonder what Cheoljiseon will say.
Should I ask why?
Or should I ask if you have any plans to escape?
As I was waiting quietly for that, Cheoljiseon soon opened his mouth.
“… Was there a reason why that had to happen?”
It’s electronic.
Rather than asking about the plan, they asked why it was done that way.
Moreover, this is an answer that shows the nature of the iron line.
Rather than asking directly why, it was a form of consideration for the other person even in this situation.
Of course, it’s a way of speaking that doesn’t suit me.
“I guess… I did it because it was necessary.”
“You needed it?”
“Yeah, it was necessary.”
Dangdeok had to be caught by Maeng.
In the name of the Demonic Cult.
If you catch him now, it would be a good time.
It would be even better if Ilryongdaeju, who is famous for his hasty personality, went there.
“Then, why did you send Miss Nahi…?”
I tilted my head at the question of the iron line.
“What? You didn’t say that on purpose, did you?”
Last time I said I was sending Nahi to Hubei, Cheoljiseon reacted as if I was being cruel.
I thought this might be a reaction because he had noticed it to some extent.
“I literally just expected it. I didn’t know it would be like this.”
I listened intently to the words he spoke as if he was worried about something.
What is the intention? It is to wait for the next words.
At that moment.
“No matter what, my colleague-.”
“haha.”
I couldn’t help but burst out laughing at Cheol Ji-seon’s words.

I think the guy is mistaken about something.
“Jisun-ah.”
“…uh?”
“Who is your colleague?”
“…!”
Cheol Ji-seon’s eyes widen at the somewhat cold words.
“… Yangcheon-ah…? You… .”
“Make no mistake. They are not your colleagues.”
“What is that?”
“I’m telling you not to give your affection unnecessarily. Look. If you give your affection and become attached, your future will become clouded.”
As he continued speaking, Cheol Ji-seon’s eyes began to tremble.
I took a sip of tea while looking at it.
“Your purpose and my purpose. They intersect, and that’s why we’re together.”
There are few people I can call my colleagues.
Is it okay for Cheoljiseon to be called a colleague?
That’s all there is to it.
“Jisun-ah.”
“…”
The iron line didn’t answer the call. But that didn’t matter.
“If you’re unhappy with this, you either change your plan completely or rescue the bastard and bring him back.”
“…!”
“If you can’t do it, then keep your useless sense of justice to yourself. It’s of no use right now.”
The place to go is clear.
Even though where I want to go and the goal of the railroad are somewhat different.
The path we take is similar, so he is by my side.
“Just look at what you see. I used it because I needed it.”
I chewed and swallowed a handful of the dry snack in front of me.
It goes down well even without alcohol.
“…”
After hearing that, Cheol Ji-seon said nothing more.
I don’t know if it’s because I have nothing to say or because I have nothing I can say.
I didn’t care.
‘It’s right to go my way.’
Whatever the meaning of the iron line.
No matter what other people think, it’s right to do what I want.
Advertisements
Yeah, that’s right.
‘I can take responsibility for it myself.’
Gulp.
After finishing my tea, I sat up.
Now that I had finished talking and had gotten a general idea of the surrounding news, it was time to go back.
‘The bait has been taken.’
Now it’s time to just wait for time.
“I’ll go first. You said you were going to see Hwangbo Gaju, right?”
“Uh, yeah… .”
“Okay, see you later.”
Knock knock.
He moves, lightly tapping the shoulder of the iron man and then takes a step forward.
Until I passed by and went down the stairs.
I didn’t look at Cheoljiseon to see what kind of expression he was making.
******************
Two days passed.
The first main event on the second day.
It was three days after that that ended.
The reason is none other than to check the condition and reduce fatigue immediately after the main event.
That means it was a period of rest.
Knock knock.
I walked, my body relaxed.
‘My injuries have all healed.’
The big one still remained though.
The most recent injury has healed.
That would be enough.
Whew.
I turned my head slightly as I felt the wind.
The end of summer.
Before I knew it, the wind was filled with the scent of autumn.
The leaves will fall soon.
‘…’
It means that time is passing, so it is not a very pleasant thing for me.
‘Are you impatient?’
He swept his chest with his hand.
Advertisements
Am I impatient?
That’s right. I’m impatient.
How could I not be impatient?
It was a life where I had to wipe away the sweat that flowed every day.
‘It’s not easy.’
Even though it’s a life I chose for myself, it’s still suffocating.
He chuckled.
I had to at least laugh.
“Look over there… .”
“They… .”
I looked straight ahead at the sound I heard next to my ears.
The streets of Hanam are still crowded with people.
It’s been a few days since the main event started, but a lot has already changed.
For example.
“It’s the Seonmulgeom… It’s truly as beautiful as the rumors say.”
“How can a person be so beautiful?”
The fool walking next to me.
The number of people who recognize her has increased.
That too, a lot.
“The rain was really amazing, wasn’t it?”
“She looks younger than my daughter… Is she really Hwagyeong’s unmanned vehicle?”
“They say that using a sword is like seeing the Sword Master in his younger days.”
The fight with the dragon. The aftereffects still linger.
Even without that, everyone’s gaze had already gathered because of her face. Now, even a slight sense of longing had been mixed into it.
“It’s a shame… I wanted to see more.”
There were also those who felt sorry for Wi Seol-ah’s elimination.
“What can I do? The opponent was the opponent. Wasn’t it the Shaolin dragon?”
There were also those who were properly imprinted with the status of the divine dragon.
‘Tsk…’
I clicked my tongue inwardly.
If this happens, it will turn out exactly as Shaolin wanted.
‘Is this a problem caused by working too hard?’
The descendants of the Sword Lord were strong.
That too is enormous.
but.
Advertisements
‘The dragon was stronger.’
Because of that, the painting turned out better than Shaolin had hoped.
The status of the divine dragon was now piercing the sky.
Of course so.
‘Even I thought he was crazy.’
There is a saying that comes to mind sometimes when I see Weeseol-ah and Namgung-bia.
Those two seem to have created beauty in human form.
I often thought that to myself.
In this regard, the dragon was the embodiment of talent.
‘It feels like talent has been made into a human form.’
Youngpoong or Woohyuk.
‘I had a vague feeling when I saw them, but they were just too much.’
It is not a simple landscape, but a realm of the imagination.
The martial art he used. Hwang-A Gang-Ram.
I knew it the moment I saw it.
‘It’s similar to my vocal cords in principle.’
In the process of wrapping up the energy, hold it in your mind so that it does not become disorganized.
It was a level of difficulty that made me laugh out loud the moment I saw it.
‘It looks like that, so no one can use it.’
How many people in Shaolin can use that now?
Even if you can’t do it, it’s a martial art that can only be used if you have the skills to do it. Even if you count them on your fingers, there shouldn’t be more than five.
‘A martial artist of that level of difficulty used martial arts.’
So it’s only natural that this kind of excitement is generated.
Yeah, that’s a given.
So, I didn’t do anything either.
‘Because it was at a reasonable level.’
A different appearance from the previous life.
I don’t know what happened, but the dragon of this era has gone far beyond the wall.
‘I thought it would be similar to Yeongpung.’
Yeongpung, a frog in a well.
I thought that the dragon would be no different from that guy.
‘What could it be?’
How the hell did you get out of it?
‘Was there anyone worth targeting?’
A being who will prevent you from being arrogant. Is there anyone like that in Shaolin?

A question came to mind, but I didn’t know for sure.
As I walk, I hear more and more voices in my ears.
“Next to the Seomwol Sword… isn’t that the woman? The one who was the poisonous phoenix of the Tang family.”
Next to Wi Seol-ah was Dang So-yeol. I also heard stories about Dang So-yeol.
By the way, just as Wi Seol-ah got a nickname, Dang So-yeol’s nickname changed.
That nickname is.
“Oh my. A poisonous snake? When were you talking about that?”
“That’s right. It’s not Dokbong anymore… .”
“It’s a poisonous fist.”
Splash.
As I heard those words, I heard the sound of teeth gnashing from somewhere.
It was from Dang So-yeol.
“… Exclusive rights… That… Does that make sense?”
He’s frowning deeply as if he’s really dissatisfied with something.
Even so, he didn’t seem threatening because he had a kind appearance.
“Seol-ah is the Seomwol Sword… You gave her such a pretty thing. Why me…!”
“Most things that are poisonous are not pretty to begin with.”
“That’s why!”
Tang So-yeol screamed at my words, which were not even comforting.
“… I didn’t even use poison in the fight. Why did I get poisoned…?”
“You’ll have to ask your family about that.”
No matter how ruined the Tang Dynasty is, it is still the Tang Dynasty.
It was inevitable, as Sega was the most famous when it came to poison.
“On purpose… I didn’t even use poison, so why… .”
“…”
On purpose…?
‘… Did you expect the nickname to change?’
No, it won’t be.
Even if that was the case, he should at least not have destroyed the grenade launcher with his fist.
“Since you made such a mess with your fist… I wonder if you’ll get a pretty nickname.”
“… No, but… I didn’t know that person was that weak.”
He says scary things with a calm expression on his face.
In an instant, a hundred-year-old master became weak.
‘It’s a monopoly… .’
Even without that, she has a cute appearance despite her small body.
Advertisements
The nickname that was known in that state was Dok-kwon.
It really doesn’t suit me.
It made me think that way on my own.
‘But what can I do?’
That’s already happened.
Once a nickname is known, it is unlikely to be changed.
In order to change, you had to show something, even if it meant making a big mistake.
‘Just like this time, Wi Seol-ah and Dang So-yeol.’
Monopoly.
Dang So-yeol, who received it, was expressing his deep dissatisfaction.
Wi Seol-ah… .
“Your Majesty, would you like some medicine? It’s delicious…!”
“…thank you.”
It seems like he doesn’t have any particular thoughts.
Even if you have a nickname, it doesn’t really matter.
Even when he lost in the first match, he didn’t feel any regret about the defeat and even looked a little more cheerful than usual.
It was the same with Namgungbia, but it seems Wi Seol-ah feels the same way.
‘Well, it was like that in my past life too.’
Just after achieving great success in the Sapa subjugation operation in his previous life.
It was revealed that Wi Seol-ah was the disciple and granddaughter of Geomjon, and she was given the name Sogeomseong.
At that time, Sogeomseong frowned and made an expression that showed that he was not pleased.
‘Did you say it was heavy?’
The nickname I got was so heavy.
That’s what I heard.
‘Then, is it light now?’
Compared to the Sogeomseong, the Seomwolgeom felt light.
So you don’t have any special thoughts?
‘… If that’s the case, then that’s fortunate.’
There is no expression on your face from your past life. That is enough.
Bam.
“Huh? Your Majesty?”
He stroked Wi Seol-ah’s hair without saying anything.
Wi Seol-ah looked at me as if asking why, but I ignored her and just touched it.
“Huh?”
Even though I’m handling it roughly, the hair is so soft that it doesn’t get tangled easily.
Advertisements
“… Confucius.”
A dark voice was heard from below at that sight.
It’s a sugar fever.
“…Why…are you only touching Seol-ah?”
“…hmm?”
what?
“By any chance… are you touching it because it’s the Seonmulgeom? Compared to that, I… am I a dull, dark, heavy, old man-like Dokkwon, so you don’t touch it?”
“…”
What is this delusion of persecution?
It was a word that made me feel suffocated the moment I heard it.
“I… I’m the only one… ! Ugh!”
Before it got any worse, I also patted Dang So-yeol’s head.
Only then does the Tang Dynasty become quiet.
I was wondering what on earth was going on, walking around with both hands caressing each other.
“… Look at that… It’s Soyeomra…”
This time I heard a whisper looking at me.
“Soyeomra has a poison fist and a sharp moon sword….”
“I only heard it as a rumor. It was true.”
“They say you’re a lecher… But you don’t seem that handsome. Why?”
“I heard that he is engaged to be with the sword dancer of Namgungga.”
“What…? Are you talking about that sword dancer named Anhui Jeilmi?”
“But still, treating women like that… .”
“You’re trash.”
“It’s trash.”
“It’s trash. It probably can’t be recycled either.”
…fuck.
Just hearing it gives me a headache.
Why is it that I’m the only one who’s getting these rumors?
‘I think I did pretty well.’
I had a proper fight with Uncle Poonglim and also confirmed that rumors were spreading secretly.
Why is that the only thing I talk about?
‘Why on earth am I such a pervert?’
If only I had done something so I wouldn’t feel so wronged. Damn it.
“Huh… Did you hear what we said?”
“Phew, what an ugly face.”
Advertisements
“That is… the fire that burned Sapa alive…”
“…”
I really hope they know.
I’m saying that I’m not just burning Saphas to death.
“Phew… .”
“Are you okay, Your Majesty?”
“are you okay.”
I almost committed murder for a moment, but luckily I held on.
You can’t just kill people on the street.
If you do it secretly, you won’t know.
I held on for a while and kept walking.
The destination is, of course, the Murim Alliance.
“All three of you have been identified. Please come in.”
After completing the verification process at the entrance, I take my first step.
Inside, there were fewer people gathered than on the first day.
‘It’s half.’
To be exact, it’s a little less than half.
There may be some who gave up because their wounds were so bad after two days or who were so exhausted that they abstained.
It wasn’t exactly half.
‘Then will there be a victory without a fight?’
It’s not impossible.
Because if the numbers are ambiguous, it was bound to happen.
at that time.
“uh.”
Someone is waving at us from afar.
It was a defeat.
“think.”
Next to Paejon, there was a tired-looking Seongyul.
I had to laugh when I saw that.
“There are two people, so it’s quite a strange picture.”
“joy.”
Today marks the third round of the main event.
We filter out people from the first round and the second round.
Filter again for two days.
After going through that a few times, the semi-finals would begin.
Advertisements
‘We’ll fight until we’re sick of it.’
Just thinking about it makes me tired.
I felt like I wanted to just let it go.
‘The other guys must be full of heat.’
I think I’m a really weird guy.
Even though it’s unmanned, I don’t really like rain.
As I was looking around indifferently.
“What is a guy who isn’t even participating doing today?”
Pajon, who had been slightly relaxing his shoulders, asked me.
right.
I am not attending today.
I heard that you have plans for tomorrow.
Even so, the reason why you came is.
“It’s not particularly because of the… Confucius.”
Dang So-yeol and Wi Seol-ah also said they wanted to leave.
I came here once because I heard that Seongyul was participating.
So, I came here to see it for a bit.
Looking at Seongyul from that perspective.
Seongyul was fidgeting like a puppy that needs to poop.
“Hey, why are you doing that-”
As I was speaking, I checked the direction Seongyul was looking.
There were some unmanned… no, literary men gathered there.
I focused my gaze on the clothes they were wearing.
A white gi with wind-shaped embroidery.
A few years ago. It was the same clothes that the now deceased Cheonghae Ilgeom had been wearing.
What this means is.
‘Hmm.’
This means that they are figures from the Kunlun sect that Seongyul originally belonged to.
I raised my head to look at them.
It was the board where the match schedule for the non-competition that would take place today was written.
“…”
I’m quietly examining them one by one.
There are a few notable quotes.
Gwangju Jin Ga Jin Im Seok Dae. The Jo Cheon of the Kunlun School.
‘I was wondering why it was like this.’
Advertisements
Jin Im-seok is a fake identity for Seong-yul that I created.
The opponent of that Jin Im-seok was the Kunlun faction.
If this is fate, then it should be called fate.
‘You said last time that nothing happened, bullshit.’
I asked Seongyul what was wrong because his expression didn’t look good.
The guy pretended nothing happened.
But looking at the reaction now, it seems like something happened.
‘Tsk tsk.’
If you had told me in advance, I would have done something for you.
Anyway, I didn’t like it.
‘Even… it doesn’t seem like it’s just Seongyul’s problem?’
Seongyul and Kunlun school scholars clash.
Even if you say you want to figure that out yourself, I was concerned about the text that was way below Seongyul’s bracket.
He was the opponent of the fallen.
Hebei Pengjia Pengzhou Dae. Xi’an Bi Bi Yi Jin.
“…”
The opponent of the defeated king was none other than the Taoist king.
