Episode 1024.Reclaiming History (8)
âWhat?â
Kang Ryang asked in surprise.
âYouâre leaving the Murim Alliance altogether?â
Yeon Ho-jeong silently drank his glass.
Beom-oh was not surprised because he had seen and heard what was going on, and Sima-hyeon looked relaxed, thinking it was okay.
Jinyang also tilted his glass without any sign of surprise.
Kang Liang asked Jin Yang.
âDid you know?â
âI guessed it.â
âhow?â
âBecause my head doesnât turn as much as the captain. âIt was just a feeling.â
âWhat on earth did you feelâ¦â
âI guess I should say I felt a bit out of place.â
Jinyangâs face, as he put down his glass, was very serious, unlike usual.
âBlack and white cannot be combined. At least thatâs the case for now. âThere is so much deep-rooted hatred and anger built up between the two that it dates back hundreds or even thousands of years.â
âI know that.â
âNo, you wonât know. No one here can know. Iâm just vaguely thinking about it. âThe depth is unknown only to those who have lived for a thousand years.â
Jinyangâs serious appearance, which is rare.
Kang Ryangâs mouth suddenly closed.
âPositive emotions can turn into negative emotions in an instant. Thatâs what itâs like between people. But it takes a long time for negative emotions to turn positive. There is a gulf of a thousand years between black and white. âIt is not an easy goal that can easily be overcome even if an enemy invades.â
Jinyang, despite his natural talent, longed to be with everyone.
His life was bleak and messy as he was ostracized by people simply for his appearance and grew up with a dark heart for a long time.
However, in the meantime, he did not cross the minimum line, met new relationships, and began to realize his potential.
At least there is no one here who does not understand the bright and dark sides of humanity. However, Jinyang was a person who directly or indirectly opposed the White Islands by establishing the Black Islands faction on his own.
Unless you are at the level of Yeonhojeong, you cannot follow Jinyangâs enlightenment.
Because he was such a person, Jinyangâs words had strong persuasive power.
âActually, I think itâs amazing that weâve improved that much. Thatâs probably why the power of the Three Religions is so scary. However, a clumsy alliance can lead to fatal conflict. âThe captainâs decision to leave the Murim Alliance is extremely reasonable.â
Jinyang chuckled.
âThat is the reason why our Hwaung clan never wanted to become entangled with the Baekdo clan. âIâm dying because of the opening.â
Kang Ryang looked at Jin Yang with new eyes.
Although there were times when we were complacent and busy playing around and building a wall away from development, the head of an organization who had run an organization seemed to be different no matter what.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
âJin Yang is right. âI saw between black and white too easily.â
âButâ¦â
Kang-ryang asked seriously.
âIâm sure youâre not planning to end our alliance, are you?â
âYou canât do that. Even if I break it off, itâs a problem I canât step in and break it off. âThis is an issue that must be decided carefully after a meeting of the heads of each organization.â
âOf course.â
âHowever, not much has changed in the meantime. âThere was only an abstract agreement, such as a simple collaborative relationship and not invading each otherâs territory.â
Sima Xuan said bluntly.
âWhat did the heads of the biggest organization in the martial arts world do without even checking that?â
âThatâs right.â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly.
âWe trusted each other so much and we were each so busy.â
âBut the leader shouldnât have done that.â
âYou are right.â
Since he admitted it so plainly, even Sima Xuan had nothing to say.
Yeon Hao-jeong looked at Sima Hyeon with puzzled eyes.
âBy the way, have you cleaned everything up?â
âI donât know to what extent this is called organizing.â
Sima Xuan put down his glass and said.
âI am operating a military unit.â
ââ¦.â
âDonât worry. âI have never killed a civilian or received a request.â
âHmm. âIt must have cost a lot of money.â
âThere is quite a bit of money left over from killing the enemy and secretly stealing it. âFor the next 20 years, I can just train and make a living.â
Yeon Hao-jeong, who was quietly watching Sima Hyeon, smiled.
âAre you interested in joining us?â Seará´h the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âI donât know.â
The answer was immediate.
You may be hesitant due to his personality, but the answer comes out easier than you think. Yeon Ho-jeong saw positive possibilities in that attitude as well.
âHonestly, we are the only ones capable of killing people. But I really canât just sit around for 20 years, so I have to do something, but I havenât made up my mind what Iâm going to do yet.â
âArenât you joining the three religions?â
Although it was said as a joke, Sima Hyunâs reaction was serious.
âIf you want to join the three religions, it is better to bite your sword and fall.â
His master and enemy was from the Saeum Church.
As for Sima Xuan, even if he was beaten to death, he would not be able to convert to the Three Schools.
âWhat are the membersâ personal details?â
Only then did Sima Xuan hesitate.
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
âwhy? Are you a criminal or something? If thatâs the case, it doesnât matter. Just keep your head straightâ¦â
âThey are orphans.â
ââ¦.â
âI took people who had nowhere to go and raised them. âActually, there werenât many people who wanted to come.â
If someone else had taken in an orphan and raised it, the issue would have been raised openly.
However, Yeon Hao-jeong could guess from Sima Hyeonâs expression that the orphans he had brought in were really children who had nowhere to go.
And that he saw a reflection of Sima Hyeon himself in those children.
âOther than that, the bridgeheads are the ones who joined hands with me during the Guangdong incident.â
âHow many people in total?â
âThree hundred and ten, including the trainees.â
Three hundred and ten.
If it was a small number, it was a small number, but if it was a lot, it was a large number.
Yeon Ho-jeong asked seriously.
âYou probably donât know what it means to put a knife in a childâs hand.â
âSo we only got the kids we wanted. âFor those who wouldnât join us, we gave them some money and sent them away.â
âAre you planning on raising him to be a warrior?â
Sima Xuan sighed and confessed.
âHonestly, I had no intention of raising him to be an assassin. I just hoped that I wouldnât have to go somewhere and get beaten up. But before I knew it, I was teaching them how to live by saying that what they learned was stealing.â
âI see.â
âThese are guys who have never played in real life. âThere was no time to pass on the vision, so it was just a little bit of practical cutting.â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
âAre you planning on releasing them into the world?â
âIf you want.â
Has Sima County changed much?
Yes. He too has changed a lot.
Although it has changed, its nature has not changed. From the beginning, Sima Xuan was this kind of person. Although he was an assassin with a natural talent, he was a person who did not kill anyone and did not treat orphans without parents carelessly.
âWell, monk Beom-o was next to me, so I guess he didnât do anything stupid.â
Beom-oh said with a smile.
âAs a result of observing him for so long, his affection and trust for the children was remarkable. âI almost treated them like my own children.â
âWhat about biological children?â
Even though he said that, it was really nice to see Sima Hyun filling his empty glass while clearing his throat as if he was embarrassed.
Yeon Ho-jeong asked directly.
âAre you going to join us?â
Sima Hyeonâs hand that was filling the glass stopped.
Sima Hyunâs face turned serious once again as he looked at Yeon Hao-jeong.
âAre you going to fight on the front lines with the Three Religions?â
âNothing can be guaranteed in war, but I always fought like that. Andâ¦.â
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Jinyang and Kangryang.
âSo did my colleagues.â
âthen.â
Sima Xuan nodded.
âI will join you.â
It was a simpler and more refreshing answer than expected.
In fact, he had already decided to be with Yeon Ho-jeong when the situation came. At the time of joining, I didnât have time to talk because things were complicated, but once I made up my mind, there was no need for complicated procedures.
âPlease take care of me in the future.â
âIâd like to ask you to take care of me too.â
They were two people who had a connection from the beginning.
They knew each other before their return, and after their return, they later avenged their enemies with the strongest assassin who was said to be competing for the best in the world and all times.
The thread of a relationship can break at any time. However, when one thread is broken, another thread connects, which is fate.
It was as if it was destined to continue that way from the beginning.
Sima Xuan entrusted himself to the blood path that the former Dark Dark Emperor of his time would walk.
* * *
two days later.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who entered the small building right in front of Maengjubu at the back of the square, was fully dressed.
Are they trying to prove their identity through clothing? His appearance, clad in black military uniform and also with black war camouflage, resembled that of someone about to go to war at any moment.
The black and white twin dragons were firmly fixed to the left and right waists, and the now familiar Gyoryongsae, as if they were one body, were wrapped tightly inside the uniform and played the role of armor.
The appearance of Yeon Ho-jeong, who had completely completed the bath, was truly dazzling. As a small owner of an organization, there is nothing lacking. On the contrary, even at that young age, he displayed a strong dignity and restrained prayer that made him seem like the head of a huge organization.
I quietly looked out the window for a while.
âYeonje.â
Before I knew it, Mo Yong-woo had entered the room.
âAre you here?â
âokay.â
Mo Yong-woo sighed and said.
âIt looks like preparations are complete.â
âokay.â
âLet me ask you just one question.â
Mo Yong-woo said with a dark face.
âAs long as the alliance is not broken, black and white will not be enemies until the war with the three religions is over. Right?â
âof course.â
âThen there is no reason for you to leave the Murim Alliance.â
It wasnât just something I was trying to say.
Sadness is sadness and reality is reality. Mo Yong-wooâs question included the question of how much of a repercussion this situation would cause.
Yeon Ho-jeong liked Mo Yong-woo like that.
Mo Yong-woo is even more thirsty for learning than when I first met him. The relationship between the two people, who joined hands for one goal but eventually developed into a personal relationship, was so deep that it could be considered a relationship bound by loyalty.
It wouldnât be easy to show a willingness to learn from even his younger brother.
Yeon Ho-jeong said calmly.
âSomehow, it looked like he was being pushed out, but in reality, the incident was sparked by Sejakâs instigation of public opinion, and after that, everything was handled properly and quietened down.â
âokay. yes.â
âFrom the moment public opinion was agitated, we had no choice but to reach the result that Sejak wanted. âIf I continue to stick to the Murim Alliance after this incident, the atmosphere in the Baekdo faction will become very chaotic.â
âWouldnât that just be corrected at the top? âIt wonât be easy, though.â
âNow is not the time to worry about such things. It is time to become more united and show stronger organizational skills. War is not far away.â
ââ¦.â
âIf I were here, there would be many political figures who would bow their heads and feel defeated. Furthermore, time is bound to give the gift of forgetfulness. âThis could happen again.â
âButâ¦â
âAt the same time, this incident will also be forgotten sooner or later. âWith the abilities of the leader and the soldier, it will be possible to use this incident as a stepping stone to truly unite the Murim Alliance.â
âSo you are going?â
âThatâs the biggest reason. Also, since Master is in the imperial palace, it is highly likely that the Black Sword has also become loose. âIt would be better to leave quickly to make things right.â
Mo Yong-woo nodded heavily.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and lightly massaged his shoulder.
âLetâs go.â
âI will guide you.â
âgreat.â
So the two people left the building.
In the central square beyond the building, countless warriors were gathered.
