Chapter 92

Episode 92. The beginning of the Pasun Festival was spectacular (1)The Pasun Festival.

It refers to a sacrifice offered to Mara, or Pasun, who is the one god of the Heavenly Demon Religion and the owner of the six heavens of the world of desire.

It is said that in the past, human sacrifices to Pasun were actually performed. It was from that time that the Church of the Heavenly Demon became infamous as it was called a demonic religion.

However, the current Pasun system was different.

This is because although there are doctrines and scriptures, they did not know that the Church of the Heavenly Demon was also the way of life.

In addition, since there has been a lot of recruitment of outsiders for hundreds of years, they naturally came to accept the customs and common sense of the central region.

In the end, the current Pasunje was not only a sacrifice to the gods, but also a festival of the martial arts world.

We made friends with people who had not been able to meet before due to the social atmosphere, enjoyed delicious food and drinks, and even invited a traveling troupe to watch a performance.

At this level, the ancestral rites are merely nominal and should be viewed as nothing more than a banquet or feast.

In fact, there were many people who started families with people they met at Pasunje, and it was not uncommon for people to reunite with relatives they had lost in childhood.

‘Well, I remember it clearly.’

In the past, when I heard about the Pasunje from Ma Dong-pil.

At that time, Seoliang was able to let go of many of his preconceptions about the Heavenly Demon Church. If you just listen to the story, it was no different from any other festival in Jungwon.

but!

“You want help? “To me?”

“exactly.”

“I don’t know why you’re asking for help, but it’s surprising. “From what I remember, we weren’t laughing and talking or cooperating with each other.”

“Is it because of how things are between us?”

“huh?”

“Although there were some conflicts, I think they came from different positions and there was no such thing as an emotional breakdown.”

How are you?

“There is no emotional breakdown. But that doesn’t mean it’s not uncomfortable, right?”

“It’s not wrong.”

What the hell?

“To be honest, I have nothing to say.”

Gogu nodded.

“My thoughts remain the same as before. “Sam Gongja is a dangerous enough person.”

“It might be dangerous for you.”

“I’m thinking about this at the same time. A double-edged sword is dangerous anyway. “If I handle it wrong, I’ll cut myself, but if I hold it and swing it anyway, I’ll cut the enemy.”

Xu Liang frowned.

“Would you like to grab me and swing me around?”

“I don’t mean that. “I just thought that if we had a common enemy, we might get some help.”

“You speak well. In the end, you see it as a good hand to use, right?”

“Thoughts are free. “I only convey my thoughts and will through words, and the interpretation is up to the Three Confucius.”

“Okay, what do you mean by common enemy? Before that, why do you want my help? “What else can I help you with?”

Although three questions were asked at once, the result was one content.

Gogu glanced at Ma Dong-pil.

Ma Dong-pil was still in operation. His calm expression turned into a frown, as if he was extremely concentrated.

“Before I answer, let me ask you a question. What does the Three Dukes really want?”

freedom!

Seo-ryang cleared his throat for a moment. Because the words in my heart almost came out without me knowing.

I don’t think my interrogation skills have gone anywhere. You didn’t become the head of the Penal Law Party for nothing, right?

“What do the successors want? “It’s the next presidential election.”

“Are you sure that the Three Dukes also want that?”

“why? “Do you think not?”

He answers indifferently, but the way he slowly turns his eyes seems awkward to anyone who sees him.

Gogu, who was looking at Seoryang blankly, quickly nodded.

“No matter what, it would be good in many ways for the three princes to achieve victory in the succession battle.”

“So what should I do?”

“What I want is to have one of my successors imprisoned in the Penitentiary Hall.”

“…?”

I was truly surprised this time.

Xi Liang asked with a serious face.

“I’m serious?”

“Of course.”

“Why on earth?”

“Of course, I have no intention of touching seven or six people right now. “Until you commit a serious crime, such as committing treason or interfering with the internal affairs of the penal court.”

I guess so.

“Are there any other successors besides the remaining six?”

“Yes. To be precise, the person designated as successor will arrive at our school in time for the Pasunje.”

“Who is that?”

Gogu’s eyes flashed with an evil light.

“He is the eldest son of the Demon Sword Family.”

The Demon Sword Family was one of the Seven Demon Sword Families, representing the Seven Families.

A family that can be said to be the best in the martial arts world, at least as far as swords are concerned.

The magic sword school was so great that even masters who had mastered the orthodox magic arts of Shingyo sometimes went there and listened to lectures on swordsmanship.

‘It’s probably a position similar to that of the Namgung family of the political faction.’

Seoyang, who was nodding inwardly, scratched his head.

“The eldest son of the Demon Sword Family is coming in as one of the candidates for succession? “Why didn’t I hear that?”

“It’s normal not to know. “As long as you don’t move around here and there like a boatman who was crushed by the hands of a third party.”

You speak quite cutely. I almost want to tell this directly to the stern Hong Wi-moon.

“Why do you want to catch him and throw him away? “Did you do something wrong?”

“exactly.”

“What’s wrong?”

“If the Three Dukes accept my offer, I will tell you then.”

“I feel sick and fall asleep. “Don’t you need to know what crime you committed before you can decide whether you agree with it or not?”

“I was the first to come to the Three Dukes, aside from the other successors. However, if the Three Dukes reject this offer, it will go to another successor.”

Xiliang narrowed his eyes.

“Then you can go, right?”

“….”

“why? Is there a problem?”

“You mean it’s nothing?”

“Why else should you be upset? If you think I’m not good enough, you can just ask another successor, right? Instead, you should be worried about the soles of your feet that you have to sell, right?”

Gogu’s eyebrows twitched.

‘This is someone I don’t know.’

He thought about it when they talked inside the penal hall. The Three Dukes are said to be a very clever person.

But what does this look like now? I couldn’t figure out if he was stupid or indifferent.

“Of course, even if you help me with this matter, the Criminal Justice Center will handle the matter fairly and impartially as before.”

“Fuck you.”

“But I, as an individual, will owe some debt to someone who helped me with this.”

“aha? So don’t miss this golden opportunity?”

“I think you’re interpreting it in a somewhat mocking way, but that’s the way it is.”

Xu Liang nodded.

“That’s not a very attractive offer.”

The opportunity to incur debt to the head of the penal court is treated as worse than a stone rolling on the side of the road. Gogu was inwardly astonished.

“You don’t even explain why and you haven’t even brought the proper trading items, so you’re asking for help? “You’re laughing.”

“….”

“Haggle somewhere else. “I’m not interested.”

Xu Liang turned around.

I’m not pretending like that, I’m sincere. Gogu could see Seoliang’s annoyance in that decisive action.

Gogu looked at Seoryang’s back and sighed.

“He is a criminal.”

“No problem.”

“I raped and murdered seven believers of our church and blamed the crime on the stern demon.”

At that moment, Seo-ryang’s feet stopped.

Gogu’s words continued slowly.

“So to speak, the parish made a big mistake. In the end, the serious criminal survived and is still living a proud life, and Mine, who gave his soul to the church, was wrongfully sentenced to death.”

“….”

“That demon prayed to the religious leader until the moment he died. “I still feel sad when I think about that scene.”

I could feel Gogu’s sincerity. Regardless of what kind of personality he was or what kind of person he was, he seemed to have a clear sense of guilt as the leader of the criminal law.

“I don’t want to let others know about the parish’s private affairs. Because I’m embarrassed. But even if I have to risk my shame, I have to catch him.

“We must catch him and bring him before the family of the person who died unjustly.”

“….”

“That’s all I want.”

“and?”

“…I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Is that the end?”

“…?”

“Rather than a vague transaction that promises to incur a debt, give me something concrete. Then let me move.”

Gogu smiled coldly.

“I guess it’s the same for you too.”

“I don’t know what’s similar, but I don’t think there’s any reason it should be different. “You were the one who offered to help in the first place.”

“…I made a mistake. That’s right, I’m also more comfortable making a deal than asking a favor.”

“So what are the trading items?”

“If you want to accept the offer, please present the item you want.”

“That’s good.”

Xu Liang turned around.

Gogu’s body, which was glaring at him, momentarily flinched.

“The transaction item I want is the dismissal of several people from their jobs.”

“….”

“why? “You don’t like it?”

“Am I included among those people?”

“Are you scared?”

“It is impossible before fear. It’s not that I don’t want to do that, but if I step down, the criminal court…”

“Don’t worry. “Because I don’t want you to step down.”

“if?”

“The party members who conducted the investigation at the time. “Dismiss all of those party members.”

“….”

“I would like to tell you to tear them all out, but I don’t want to put people’s lives on the line for trading items.

“I think it would be enough to make a pretty picture to the extent of dismissal.”

Gogu’s eyes deepened.

‘what?’ Sёarch* The Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Are you serious? Are you really going to make this deal that will only result in losses?

Xiliang snorted.

“no? Wouldn’t it be good for you to get rid of them? Throw away the most incompetent people and bring in new, motivated people to create a more beautiful criminal law…”

“I’ve already dismissed them all.”

“…?”

“There are degrees of mistakes. “I am stricter with the party members in the parish than with the church members.”

“….”

“….”

“Uh-huh! “It’s quite difficult to pretend to be cool.”

“It was pretty cool. “I knew it was sincere.”

“It’s just embarrassing to hear things like that from you.”

Xiliang scratched his head.

“Okay, whether it’s a debt or something, I’ll help you with this.”

“Thank you.”

“Okay, so how are we going to catch him?”

“I don’t know.”

“…?”

“….”

“Did I hear wrong just now? “You don’t know?”

“exactly.”

“Are you kidding me?”

“That’s why I came to visit the Three Dukes first.

“I think there will be a way out if we can cleverly evade the distribution and predictions of the three princes who caused such a fuss even in front of the penal court.”

Xiliang sighed deeply.

“What if you come to me with a problem that you can’t find an answer to? debt? Just live comfortably in this world, okay?”

“Is there no other way?”

Seo-ryang screamed loudly.

“Are you sure?”

“….”

“…You were cursing me in your head just now, calling me incompetent, right?”

“no.”

“Look at your voice shaking.”

“Don’t make people feel unfair because of your sense of entitlement.”

“Plague.”

Seo-ryang, who had been grumbling to himself for a while, said.

“Isn’t there a law code that contains the criminal law?”

“exactly.”

“Bring me one that looks nice.”

“Why is that…?”

“I won’t use it as a pot stand, so give it to me. “You have to know something about criminal law to decide whether to involve him or not.”

“…I understand. “Is there anything else you need?”

“If you need it, let me know then. “When is Pasunje called?”

“Five days later.”

“It’s tight. okay.”

“What about manpower? “You don’t need anyone, do you?”

“that’s enough.”

“You mean you can do it alone?”

“alone? “I’m not alone?”

“hmm?”

It was then.

Pusssss.

Ma Dong-pil slowly wakes up in a pure white haze.

Before I knew it, only scratches remained from the icons engraved on my whole body. A clear look of joy appeared on his face as he took a deep breath.

Gogu’s eyes were shaking. The magical power emanating from Ma Dong-pil was beyond imagination.

“how is it?”

He looked back at Seoliang.

Seoyang narrowed one eye.

“This is the emergence of the best human resources that will not change even if we give them 100 members of your party.”
