Chapter 112

Episode 112 Breaking Shell (2)The interior of the fast-moving carriage was quiet.

Unlike usual, Seoryang’s eyes were completely indifferent as he rested his chin and quietly looked at the window.

However, the reason why Ma Dong-pil and Wi Hong-ryeon, who were riding together, were speechless was not only because of Seo-ryang. Ma Dong-pil closed his eyes and was immersed in meditation, and Wei Hong-ryeon was reviewing the order with a serious face.

Even if it was Ma Dong-pil, seeing Wei Hong-ryeon like this was unexpected.

Although she was always loud and venomous, she was also the leader of a combat unit. When starting a mission, it was natural to take it seriously to avoid failure.

How much time has passed like that?

Wei Hongryun said while looking at Xu Liang.

“Inspector. Considering the speed of the carriage, it will arrive at Jeoksaga in approximately five days. “If you leave a little more time, it may be delayed by a day or two.”

“….”

“What do you want to do?”

“What do you think is better?”

“I recommend taking your time.”

Xu Liang nodded.

“Do it that way.”

“All right.”

Wei Honglian, who was reviewing the documents again, asked again.

“There is a secret branch of our church in Yeonju. Would you like to stay there for a while?”

“Is it good to reorganize?”

“That’s right. “I think the more time you have, the better it is in many ways.”

“Right.”

“But that’s only a problem for the crew. We are only an escort and emergency force. “If it is a break that will interfere with the inspection mission, I think it is right to exclude it.”

“Then go and don’t stop by.”

“All right.”

No other reasons are asked or explanations are added. Although each person had a different mindset, the conversation itself was clean and smooth.

Time passed again.

Ma Dong-pil opened his eyes.

“Confucius.”

“uh.”

“Dawn has broken, so let’s eat…”

At that time, Geumho popped his head out from Seoryang’s arms.

Ma Dong-pil’s face had a look of confusion on his face. Although the long sleeves were plentiful, I couldn’t believe I didn’t even know I had a Geumho in my arms.

“You brought Geumho.”

“Why do you want to come?”

Seoyang habitually scratched Geumho’s chin. Geumho made a purring sound and showed cuteness.

“do not worry. “I won’t disturb you and you won’t get hurt.”

“Oh yeah.”

Ma Dong-pil quenched his appetite. Is it because Confucius’s mood is different from usual? I wanted to break the awkwardness by telling a joke, but I couldn’t open my mouth easily.

To begin with, he was far from joking or playing around. Although he had become considerably softer after spending time with Seo-ryang, that did not mean he had become more pleasant.

Ma Dong-pil thought for a moment and took out a hot rice ball from the bottom of the carriage. Okay, let’s not do anything we haven’t done before.

“Please eat.”

“I have no thoughts. “You eat.”

what…?

Ma Dong-pil was taken aback by Seo-ryang’s lukewarm response. Wasn’t he someone who never refused food even when it wasn’t mealtime?

Wei Hongryeon, perhaps quite surprised, glanced at Seoliang.

“Confucius… no, inspector.”

“hmm?”

“Wouldn’t it be better to eat on time?”

“I have no appetite.”

“Well, that’s a really big problem.”

I had nothing else to say, so I ended up answering like that.

Wei Hongryeon secretly whispered to Ma Dongpil.

‘I wanted to ask you earlier, why are you doing that?’

‘I don’t know.’

‘Did you get hit in the eye by someone?’

‘Be careful what you say…’

Seo-ryang said harshly.

“I didn’t get hit in the eye.”

“…hehe, did you hear?”

“It’s just that I have something to think about. “There’s no need to worry, so eat.”

“Oh, then what?”

The two people chewed their rice balls eagerly.

Seo-ryang looked at the window and inwardly sighed.

‘Damn it.’

Why does this make me feel so sad?

‘Isn’t this the freedom you’ve been longing for? But why are you doing this? ‘Have you no longer needed freedom?’

He looked back at himself seriously.

And the conclusion reached.

‘No way.’

My heart is already pounding as I think about building a large house in a place with a beautiful view and having fun.

I had never lived a proper life, so I didn’t want that kind of life. The dream that his nature desired was a leisurely life.

Dreams and goals are different. However, they have something in common: constant change.

Perhaps when that dream comes true, I will have another dream. I don’t think it’s possible, but maybe I’ll miss Moorim again.

But that was after I achieved my current dream.

‘Just thinking about it makes my heart pound. I want to achieve that dream even if it means risking my life.’

But why is it so uncomfortable?

‘Because of the cherry blossoms I left behind?’

Yes.

‘Are you thinking about breaking up with Dongpil?’

That is also true.

‘….’

Seo-ryang’s face became blurred.

‘It’s just not everything.’

Now is the time to admit it. Although he is not a rare saint in the world, it is clear that he is a great man who is weak in emotions like other ordinary people.

However, this discomfort was not simply due to separation from people who had given affection to them.

Something more fundamental than that. Even if you actually achieve your dream, there is an unknown darkness that will surely linger in a corner of your heart.

‘What on earth is that?’

Xu Liang glanced at the two people. The two people were eating rice balls deliciously.

To put it bluntly, it could just disappear without a word. Although you may not be able to fully display the Dark God’s Body using the Gu Yuma Gong, you may be able to fool the eyes of the guards.

It will be too late once you find out. If we speed up as much as possible, we will be able to enter the Honam safe house within three days.

Then that’s it. The safe house in Honam is stocked with emergency rations and elixirs that can easily last for two years. All you need to do is improve your skills even more over the past two years and leave the midfield without anyone noticing.

In fact, it means that you can easily disappear without having to fake your death by colliding with the enemy.

Then you can do it like that, right?

‘Okay, there’s no need to drag it out for a long time. Take action tonight…!’

At that moment, Seo-ryang’s eyes became bloodshot.

Jiing! Jiing!

A sound more powerful than ever.

It is a much more terrible sound than when I was trapped in the world of Uicheonmaeng and Iron Blood Castle and when I faced Lee Cheon-sang. My super senses were ringing like crazy.

‘I shouldn’t run away like this?’

Why on earth?!

‘Has there been an epidemic in Honam? ‘Is there any reason why I shouldn’t go there?’

To put it simply, the extra sense is the sixth sense. The sixth sense is a feeling that cannot be explained by logic, and of course it was not something that could be interpreted right away.

It’s a very magical ability, but no matter how extrasensory you are, you can’t tell what’s going to happen in a distant region.

“…Sir.”

“….”

“Inspector!”

Seo-ryang looked at Wei Hong-ryeon, startled by the voice calling him.

An invisible worry was written on her sour face.

“Are you okay? “Why are you sweating so much?”

“uh?”

He wiped his forehead. As Wei Hongryeon said, cold sweat was seeping out.

“No, it’s okay.”

Ma Dong-pil asked.

“If you’re not feeling well….”

“That can’t be possible.”

There’s no way a monster who broke the limit of climax at that age would break into a cold sweat just because he wasn’t feeling well.

“I was just thinking about it. do not worry. “Because there’s nothing wrong.”

“…Yeah.”

Ma Dong-pil’s face became serious.

That’s the answer, but I can’t help but be worried. Has Confucius looked much different from usual since yesterday?

At first, I thought it was just the pressure of the mission. Although he was strong as a monster, I thought he must have thought about it since it was an order given directly by the leader.

But there are degrees of burden. Besides, given Confucius’s personality, there’s no way he would feel this much pressure, right?

Xu Liang sighed and buried his back in the chair.

“Don’t worry about me and get some rest. “I need to get some sleep too.”

“All right.”

He closed his eyes with difficulty. I felt the gaze of two people, but ignored it.

Let’s not think about anything for now and just get some rest.

* * *

Six days later.

“There is a forest five miles ahead. “I will spend the night there today.”

“okay.”

“It looks like we will enter Jeoksaga’s territory before noon on the day of the anniversary. “It will probably arrive at Jeoksa Temple around mid-morning (13:00-15:00).”

“okay.”

“Would you like to sleep in the carriage?”

“okay.”

After a while, the group arrived at the forest and settled down in a suitable place. As has been the case up to now, 30 members of the Gwangmadang decided to take turns keeping watch.

Wi Hongryeon, who was making a bonfire and rummaging through firewood, suddenly felt a sense of popularity and turned her head.

Ma Dong-pil was approaching.

“Why did you come here to rest?”

“I came out because the Master seemed to want to be alone.”

Wei Honglian nodded.

“How about you, Confucius?”

“You saw it too.”

“You are much closer to Confucius than I am.”

“I don’t know either. The good news is that you are regaining peace as time goes by.”

“tranquility? really?”

“…As I just said, you also saw it in person, didn’t you?”

“Damn it, I’m so insensitive that I don’t know much about that. And because I was receiving reports all the time, I wasn’t able to keep an eye on Confucius’ complexion like you did.”

Ma Dong-pil nodded vigorously.

“You’ve definitely improved. “It seemed like you had some concerns, but I think things have been sorted out now.” Sёarch* The novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“okay? Well, that’s enough.”

“Surprisingly.”

“what?”

“I didn’t know that the Great Lord thought so much of Confucius.”

Wei Hongryun snorted.

“Right now, there is no relationship between the Three Dukes of our school and Wei Hongryun. It was tied up with the Special Inspection Agency and Gwangma Daeju. “If the leader is shaken, the mission will also be shaken, so how can you not worry?”

“That is correct what the Great Lord said.”

“Anyway, I’m glad you’re okay…”

At that time, a gloomy voice came from behind her.

“The kindness of your heart brings tears to my eyes.”

“crane!”

The two people, startled, looked back.

I don’t know when Seo-ryang came out, but he was standing with his arms crossed.

“Uh, when did you come?”

“just now.”

“No, you should at least pretend to be popular. “But your stealth skills are scary?”

“The art of stealth is a curse and you have dull senses.”

Seoryang, who was complaining, sat down in front of the bonfire.

“I’m hungry. If you have any beef jerky, give me some.”

Ma Dong-pil politely handed over the beef jerky.

Seoliang eagerly chewed the beef jerky. Maybe it was because I hadn’t eaten properly in a while, but even the hard beef jerky was delicious.

Wei Hongryun looked at Xiliang with strange eyes.

“You must be hungry.”

“Tsk tsk but what?”

“You manage to chew that stiff thing so well.”

“Then are you going to chew it tastelessly?”

“No, it’s nothing like that. “You must have enjoyed the delicacies from the mountains and the seas because you enjoyed them so much.”

“When I was young, I survived on beef jerky that was 10,000 times more delicious than this. “This is a sumptuous feast.”

It doesn’t really suit a young man under 30 who says he has a small life.

Whatever it is, I’m glad that Confucius seems to have returned to his usual self. Wei Hongryeon took out a flat water bottle the size of her palm from her arms.

“Would you like a sip?”

“Oh, thank you. “But why is this guy’s canteen so small?”

Seo-ryang’s eyes wavered as he held the canteen in his mouth.

“…you?”

“Hehe, I want to warm up when I stay overnight.”

“Why did you even bring alcohol while saying that you were meeting with the inspector over a large drink?”

“I brought it to sip after the mission. “It’s something you treasured, so please eat a little bit.”

Seo-ryang burst out laughing. He’s usually a very annoying guy, but today I was somehow thankful. It was because he knew that Wei Hongryun was truly worried about him.

‘Okay, let’s take it easy.’

Since I have taken on the task of being an inspector, let’s finish this task. If they jump out in the middle, Ma Dong-pil and Wi Hong-ryeon will also be disciplined.

Let’s run away after everything is over. Well, if that’s what it is, I don’t have anything to say, but it would be better to finish my work.

‘It’s funny to draw a line in advance just because you’ve decided to break up. ‘Isn’t it selfish to want to be comfortable in the name of helping others?’

If we couldn’t be together anyway, let’s take it easy until the end. It’s a super sense, so sleep on it and run wherever you want for now.

‘Okay, that’s fine.’

The three people laughed and chatted. It was truly the first proper conversation I had had in a long time.

good! Let’s start from the bottom of the story properly!

Noon the next day.

Thanks to the energetic horse riding, a group of people blocked the group’s path as they arrived at Jeoksa Temple an hour earlier than expected.

“Are you from Protestantism?”

Wei Hongryun, who was in the lead, nodded arrogantly.

The leader of the group, Hong Sang-ho, head of the second family of Jeoksaga, smiled bitterly.

“Interior construction is underway. “It is difficult to accommodate all the people, so the escort unit will be taken elsewhere.”

“…?”

“Only the acting inspector follow me.”

Wei Hongryun’s face suddenly turned cold.

Just before spitting out double insults.

Rattling.

The door opened and Seo-ryang and Ma Dong-pil got out.

Seo-ryang looked Hong Sang-ho up and down.

Hong Sang-ho frowned. He didn’t like the look in Seo-ryang’s eyes.

Seo-ryang asked as if throwing a question.

“house owner?”

“…My name is Lee Gaju Hong Sang-ho.”

“Igaju? “It’s not the head of the family, it’s the head of the family?”

“The head of the family is now….”

“The head of the family.”

Wei Hongryun lowered her head.

“Yes, inspector.”

Xu Liang turned around.

“These things are out of position. “They are people who look down on our school, so write a report saying there is nothing to investigate.”

“…!”

“It’s a waste of time. Let’s go to Geogyeongga.”
