Absolute Regression

Episode 92 The power of words is scary.

When I returned to my residence after finishing my martial arts training, Gowol was reading a book in his room, and Pungcheonjyoju was standing in the yard looking up at the night sky.

His mood was quite different from when I first saw him. He definitely felt calmer somehow.

“When did you come?”

“I came to see your precious soldier, so you don’t have to worry about waiting too long.”

“Did you enjoy seeing this precious soldier?”

“I just got scolded.”

“Well. That won’t work. How dare you scold the religious leader? “I will hand over that military scolding.”

“Don’t say anything you don’t mean. “Because what you said is even more disgusting.”

I grinned and he smiled happily too.

“I waited on purpose to see you.”

“What’s going on?”

“The Archduke came to visit me. “I was waiting to tell you in person that I never wavered.”

“Oh, I’m really touched.”

“Yes, I should be impressed. What good conditions did the Archduke offer? “I rejected it all.”

“Thank you, leader.”

I did not ask what conditions were proposed.

“Then I’m leaving. They say you shouldn’t be lazy in times like this. “The emotion is half-hearted.”

“yes. you’re right. “It would have been perfect if you hadn’t even said this.”

“is it?”

The leader of the Pungcheon Church smiled awkwardly. I had a very deep connection with this person. I think we will have a deeper relationship in the future.

Perfect!

When I snapped my fingers, Pungcheon and I were standing in the middle of a green field.

The leader of Pungcheon was surprised.

“You have completed the space-time anomaly technique!”

The leader of Pungcheon looked around. The tall trees, the grass swaying in the wind, and even the winding country road leading to the mountains in the distance.

“It’s perfect.”

“Thanks to you for teaching me great martial arts skills.”

“You are probably the first person to complete the space-time anomaly technique so quickly since it was created. You have no idea. “I trained for so many years to create this space…”

“I was lucky.”

“Don’t be humble. “There’s really no need to be humble about this.”

The leader of Pungcheon Church showed that he has grown through the recent storm.

He grabbed my hand sharply.

“Congratulations.”

I also expressed my sincere congratulations.

“thank you. “At least within this space, the leader is my teacher.”

“You really…”

The leader of the Pungcheon Church was speechless.

“Oh, and I have one question.”

“You tell me.”

“Is it possible to make the time flowing in space-time anomaly different from the time in reality? “The question is, can you make time pass more slowly than outside?”

The head of Pungcheon opened his eyes and looked at me.

“Why do you look at me like that?”

“In the past, I would have definitely been like this. “Hey you idiot, does that make sense?”

“What now?”

“You idiot, does that make sense?”

I laughed and the leader of Pungcheon also laughed and told me about it.

“Actually, I’ve had that thought too. Actually do some research. But it was impossible. “I thought about it several years after completing the space, but you think of it as soon as it’s completed.”

First of all, it meant that there was no secret recipe that had been passed down. To achieve this, I will have to study and think about it again when my martial arts level has risen further.

“I understand what you are saying. Now, let’s solve the space.”

“Just a moment before that! Are you serious about what you said earlier? “This means that they think of me as their teacher here.”

“I’m serious.”

“Then please open this space occasionally. “When will I have the opportunity to be your teacher in my life?”

“Yes, I will.”

It was perfect to see the Pungcheon religious leader’s face brighten! I snapped my fingers and we were back to reality.

“Then proceed carefully.”

The leader of Pungcheon Church, who was walking a short distance, suddenly turned around and shouted.

“I’m a scientist until the end!”

Then, I chuckled as I watched him disappear into the darkness as if he was embarrassed.

Does the leader of Pungcheon have such a cute side? Well, a person with that kind of heart must have been able to leave everything behind.

* * *

Mabul was very angry.

It was understandable that Geommuyang visited Hyeolcheon Doma earlier. Anyway, there was something I had to resolve with him.

But I couldn’t bear to go all the way to Pungcheon Bridge. Even though he clearly saw the war of nerves between himself and the leader of the Pungcheon Church, he went to see him.

“Grand Duke.”

“Yes, old man.”

“You met the leader of Pungcheon?”

“yes. “We met to attract them to our side.”

He answered so calmly that it was impossible to get angry. Moreover, there was definitely a reason.

“If we bring in the leader of the Pungcheon Cult, wouldn’t even the Soul Mazon naturally be on our side? “That’s how we met.”

“What did the leader of Pungcheon say?”

“I said I would think about it.”

Geommuyang didn’t talk about him anymore.

Mabul wondered how to bring up the story and convey his feelings without hurting Geommuyang’s feelings. In the end, I gave in and started with an apology.

“It was my mistake to call Yunnan Shuangui.”

“What do you mean?”

“I guess my thoughts were short-lived. “Those people should not have been dragged into the Archduke’s affairs.”

“I know very well that it came from your heart for me.”

“Thank you for thinking that way. After all, Confucius has a big heart.”

“Instead, we should set one thing straight.”

“What do you mean?”

“You said you brought Yunnan Shuanggoi into my work, but strictly speaking, it’s not my work, but yours.”

Geommuyang clearly drew a line. He was on his way to becoming a successor. I didn’t want to have even the slightest connection to trash like the Yunnan twins.

Mabul wondered if he had to go this far, but he hid his expression.

“Oh, I made a mistake for a moment. That’s right, the Yunnan twin-goi thing is my job to the last extent.”

“Of course I know you called them for me. So don’t worry too much.”

Geommuyang smiled first, and Mabul smiled along with her.

The conversation ended with a smile, but Mabul’s heart was not refreshed. There was a problem, but it was even more so because I couldn’t tell if it was my problem or Geommuyang’s problem.

When Mabul left Geommuyang’s residence and returned to his own residence, someone was waiting for him.

Surprisingly, he was a sword dancer.

“Gongja?”

“I was waiting because I wanted to see the elderly.”

“me? why?”

Mabul was nervous inwardly. I was worried that he might be trying to kill me in a place where no one was around, so I secretly increased my power. However, the reason why the sword dance came was very unexpected.

“Would you like to go and have a drink with me?”

“Drinking with me? Also from the author?”

If it had been any other day, I would have immediately turned it down out of concern that there would be a rumor that the two were flirting.

But today’s Mabul was not the usual Mabul.

“Of course. “There’s nothing you can’t do.”

If Geommuyang meets Hyeolcheon Doma and Pungcheon Cult Leader, doesn’t he also have the chance to meet Geommugeuk? Rather, I hoped that this matter would reach Geommuyang’s ears.

‘Gong Lee, you are a very lucky person.’

I can’t believe you came to visit me on a day like this.

“I think this is my first time walking side by side with an elderly person like this.”

“Don’t act like we’re friends for nothing.”

A normal person would have walked quietly even if it was out of embarrassment, but that was not the case in Geommugeuk.

“I will never have a chance to walk with the elderly like this, so if I don’t act friendly in times like this, when will I? “Please understand if I act excited today.”

“You tricked Thomas like this too.”

“Yes, that’s right. “I knocked on the door endlessly.”

“door?”

“The door to the heart.”

Mabul snorted and suddenly wondered if Geommuyang had ever knocked on his door. Then, I quickly calmed down and controlled my mind.

‘No matter how much you say, Mr. Lee, I am not a monkey that falls from a tree if you shake it like a cutting board.’

The place the two arrived was a pub in Magachon.

Even though the sword dance did not introduce him, Jo Chun-bae recognized Mabul at a glance.

He wasn’t embarrassed. He changed after receiving Cheonma as a guest. Even if the Murim Lord and the Apostle Lord came at the same time, he was confident that he would willingly accept it.

“Welcome, Mr. Gakju.”

“A precious person has come, so please take care of me today as well.”

“Yes, I will serve you with all my heart.”

Like that, Geommugeuk and Mabul sat across from each other on this floor.

“This is my regular place.”

“I don’t want to know. “Why did you ask to see me?”

“There are many reasons, but you won’t believe them all, so if you give a reason to believe it, it’s a kind of check.”

“Containment?”

“My brother started meeting my people. Then I want to show you that I too can meet people. “The first person is an elderly person.”

“Will anything change if we meet?”

“I know you have strong feelings for your brother.”

“What do you know?”

“Didn’t you show me the day your brother came back? “At that time, I felt great love for my brother.”

When Geomugeuk tried to pour him a drink, Mabul took the bottle and drank it himself.

“Don’t say that you know me.”

Mabul emptied his glass and drank it followed by a sword dance.

This time, Geomugeuk tried to pour him a drink, but Mabul filled his own glass.

“There will be times when you have a hard time because your brother is selfish. Please take good care of Mazon.”

“You are such a pretentious person. “Did you think I would be moved by saying something like that?”

“That’s not why I cursed at my brother behind his back. “He’s a selfish person.”

Mabul praised Geommuyang as if the estrangement did not work.

“Your brother is a brilliant man.”

“The humanity is a bit lacking.”

“It’s okay. “Because people who are going to do great things should not be guided by personal feelings.”

“Sometimes they will ignore their elders.”

“It’s okay. “You will become the Heavenly Demon someday, so what’s the point of ignoring me?”

“You might break important promises.”

“The words and actions of the Heavenly Demon are the law. Important or unimportant, promise or not. “All of that is decided by the Heavenly Demon.”

“You are truly impregnable. I envy my older brother who has the elderly on his side. “I will drink this drink with respect for my elders.”

Geomgeuk emptied his drink.

Mabul curled one corner of his mouth and sneered.

“I admit that Lee Gongja has good skills in dealing with people. Still, you won’t be able to appease me. “I am a different person from Thomas or the leader of the Pungcheon Church.”

“I know. As I said before, I have no intention of making the elderly person my person.”

“Why are you like this?”

“I want to know who you are. I was curious about who was protecting my brother by his side. And I came to a conclusion.”

“how?”

Mabul was curious about how Lee Gongja would evaluate him.

“If you hurt your feelings, you will be the biggest idiot in our school.”

Mabul snorted and emptied his glass.

Geommugeuk tried to pour drinks again. This time I didn’t take the bottle.

Geommugeuk said while pouring drinks.

“When I look at the elderly, I think of them as little giants. He is greater than anyone else.”

The power of words is truly scary. Even though I knew it was clearly meant to flatter me, I couldn’t stop feeling good. I especially liked the expression “little giant.” There was a time when I thought of myself like that, but no one ever called me that.

Fearing that his true feelings would be revealed, Mabul glared at Geommugeuk with an even more disapproving expression.

Perhaps knowing that feeling, Geomugeuk said something unexpected.

“Please take care of my brother.”

“Are you asking for the Archduke? “What does that mean?”

“I plan to stop killing each other in succession battles in this generation. To do that, we shouldn’t treat each other emotionally, but my brother has a strong pride, so it will be difficult to control that. Please have an elderly person nearby to help you. “If you are an elder, you will be able to stop your brother even if he runs away.”

Mabul, who was glaring at Sword Dance, said coldly.

“You don’t know anything about me. If the Archduke goes on a rampage, I will pour oil on him. You can’t become a successor with a small explosion, so I’ll encourage you to blow up everything. So, if you are looking for a way to live through me, I tell you to wake up from your dream.”

Mabul got up from his seat. Mabul, who was about to leave, spoke one last word.

“If you believe you can choose a successor peacefully, you are either a fool or a crazy person.”

“Seeing as everyone who knows me says I’m crazy, I’m probably crazy.”

Mabul, who was staring at the sword dance, spoke firmly.

“I hate crazy people.”

Mabul went down to the first floor.

Geommugeuk looked down at Cho Chun-bae, who was sitting at the checkout counter.

He was dozing off even when Mabul passed by him, trying to freak him out later. Well, it’s inevitable that you’ll be tired and sleepy even if it’s not Mabul but Grandpa Mabul that comes.

Geommugeuk’s eyes, which were looking at Jo Chun-bae, turned to the outside of the bar.

In the distance, a golden glow was walking towards the horizon. It was half the height of an average person, but the shadow stretched in the sunset light was large and long.
