Absolute Regression

Chapter 93



Episode 93 The villains get along well.

Instead of going to his residence, Mabul went to Geommuyang again.

After seeing Geommugeuk, I wanted to see Geommuyang one more time. I felt like I would fall asleep if I had to watch more.

“Are you here?”

He was always upright and polite.

Since we met earlier and then broke up, why did you come again? I had to ask, but Geommuyang did not often reveal her personal curiosity or feelings.

So much so that I think there might be an obsession with having to do that in order to become a Heavenly Demon.

There was no day when I felt that distance more clearly than today, but I wasn’t one to be swayed by something like this.

“Gongja Lee came to visit.”

“Is it non-stop?”

“yes.”

“okay.”

Geommuyang did not ask what they discussed when they met. I just nodded once.

“Why don’t you ask? “Why did you come and what did you talk about?”

“it’s okay. “I trust you.”

Mabul felt that he had come to the right place for Geommuyang.

‘Yes, the Archduke is really this kind of person. He is not delicate and blunt, but he is like Jin-guk. Yes, let me believe it too. This is how we solve everything.’

Mabul tried to release all the accumulated emotions.

I brushed off everything, including meeting with the leader of the Poongcheon cult and offering to give Hyeolcheon Doma the position of First Magon.

“Then rest.”

Mabul got up from his seat. I wish it had ended here. I wish I had just left it to myself to throw away all this emotional debris.

Geommuyang spoke from behind.

“The reason I offered the position of First Magon to Hyeolcheondoma was to appease him.”

Mabul was startled and stopped moving.

‘Why now? Why now? Why are you saying this after meeting the sword dance when you didn’t do it when you wanted it so much?’

Mabul didn’t turn around right away for fear that his deep inner feelings would be revealed on his face.

From behind, Geommuyang spoke again.

“When I become the Heavenly Demon, the First Majon will naturally become an elder.”

Mabul was angry.

It occurred to me that he was saying this because he was impatient because he thought Geommugeuk might try to appease him after treating him like a fish he had caught so far.

‘Why do you make me feel this way? ‘You say you trust me?’

Even though I tried to understand it because it was normal, I was upset.

‘Grand Duke, weren’t you the person who ignored your younger brother? ‘Wasn’t he a man who was confident and confident in his actions?’

But I couldn’t be angry. Because he was the one who tried to show how much sword dance drama had changed by mobilizing the Yunnan Twins.

That’s right, your younger brother is someone you have to be nervous about.

But there was no need for it to lead to distrust of oneself…

Mabul smiled and turned around.

“Of course I knew you would.”

“I’m worried that you might misunderstand my feelings because I’m saying this right after I met my younger brother.”

Oh, I shouldn’t have said this either. If that were the case, it would have been just a coincidence, or out of insensitivity, or maybe he had misunderstood. I would have forced myself to think that way.

“What misunderstanding could I have? “I’m just grateful that you value me.”

“It’s natural. “Don’t say things like that.”

“Then I’ll just leave.”

With that, Mabul bowed politely and left Geommuyang’s residence.

Today, when Mabul returned to his residence after walking alone on a dark road without moonlight, he organized his thoughts like this.

‘That’s because I’m still young. If you are as perfect as a scientist, why do you need me? A master craftsman with weaknesses is better than a master craftsman like a snake. I just need to take a good look at it.’

His loyalty to Geommuyang was as bright as the radiance emanating from his body.

* * *

Ilhwa Geomzon came to visit me at Hwangcheongak office.

“Now this is a gift.”

She held out a flower pot in full bloom.

“thank you. You are pretty.”

I put the flower pot by the window.

As I was exchanging a few words with her about flowers, Seo Dae-ryong came in with tea. Feeling playful, I spoke solemnly to Seo Dae-ryong.

“From now on, it will be Inspector Seo’s responsibility to take care of those flowers when I’m away. “It’s a special gift from Geomjon, but you know what happens if you kill that flower, right?”

If it had been just the two of them, all kinds of gloomy yet funny things would have come out, but because Ilhwa Geomjon was there, Seo Dae-ryong obediently answered yes and left.

We had all gone together when we visited the leader of the Pungcheon Church, but Ilhwa Geomjon was still very difficult for Seo Dae-ryong.

“I don’t know if you came to visit me while I was busy.”

“no. “It’s the investigators’ job, I’m just fooling around.”

There were too many documents piled up on my desk to say that.

There was a lot of work to be done at Hwangcheongak.

No matter how many times we put them in, the evildoers kept coming out. The number of evildoers may have been fixed to begin with. I even thought that if one person vacated the position, the position would automatically be filled.

But no matter how busy he was, Hwangcheongak work was as important as becoming a successor.

Because I have the task of a lifetime to kill Fire Mugi, but at the same time, I am living in this era.

“Your brother visited you too, right?”

I guessed correctly the reason for her visit today.

“okay. “I came looking for you.”

“You’re so diligent, my brother.”

“That’s why it’s so popular.”

I nodded in approval. Although he was mean and harsh to me, his external appearance was different.

There was no arrogance or complacency, thinking that since he was the archduke, he should naturally become the successor. One way or another, he thinks a lot, thinks a lot, and above all, is a diligent person.

“I know there are many people who like you.”

“The Archduke is someone who gets along well with our school. “If you leave it to me, there is a sense of stability that it will somehow lead well.”

“What about me?”

“You really don’t fit in. Where on earth will it lead us? It actually makes me anxious. But seeing that it is this popular…”

After a moment, Ilhwa Geomzon continued.

“I think there is hope for us too.”

“What hope?”

“I hope that the new magic island you mentioned can be established.”

“Thank you for a good look.”

“But don’t forget. There are still many people at our school who dislike change. “There are many people who believe that evil is our strength and essence.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Anyway, are you going to just watch while the Archduke moves so quickly?”

“I don’t know much about other mazons other than the elder Doma and the two seniors. “I don’t know who to bring to our side.”

I was curious about what Ilhwa Geomzon was thinking, so I pretended like I didn’t know anything.

Then she said something unexpected.

“Do you know who voted for Cheongseon instead of me and Doma when electing the Seophonmazon? “The one Thomas persuaded.”

“I do not know. “The old man didn’t tell me.”

“Shall I tell you?”

Originally, events and decisions made among the Mazon were kept completely secret from the outside world. She is trying to break that rule for me.

“Can you tell me?”

“It won’t work.”

“But why?”

“I’m trying to live by breaking the rules, too.”

And then he smiled. How could someone like this be only halfway through?

“Actually, I am a stubborn and inflexible person. If there are set rules, they don’t tend to break them. If I have an appointment with someone, I have to arrive early, and if I’m misunderstood, I’m the type of person who can’t sleep because I’m worried. I have a lot of worries that I don’t have to worry about, and I’m sensitive to the world’s evaluation of me. “I have a tiring personality for one reason or another.”

“Isn’t that fatigue what created your current reputation?”

Ilhwa Geomzon smiled bitterly.

“I guess that was the case in some way. Anyway, I’m trying to be more flexible now. How about breaking some rules? “If it helps you, it’s worth it.”

“Is there any reason why you changed your mind?”

“As I get older, I keep looking back on my life. “I regret this, I regret that, I regret everything in my life, but this is what I regret the most.”

Chaaaang.

She gently drew her sword. Her eyes turned to the blade.

“I have dedicated my life to making sure that no one breaks this sword. Instead, my life became that much harder.”

She lifted her gaze from the sword and looked at me.

“It’s such a pity that I have lived my life so rigidly.”

I felt that she truly regretted it.

I spoke softly, as if comforting her.

“Are you sad that no one seems to know about that life? I lived my life so thoroughly, but I felt like no one really understood it. “Everyone is doing well, but you wonder if I’m alone in feeling regretful?”

Then, surprise appeared on Ilhwa Geomzon’s face.

“How do you really know my heart so well?”

It’s a feeling I’ve felt at least once.

“It’s because I respect my senior a lot.”

Ilhwa Geomzon said with a wide smile.

“Yes, I have to tell you. There is someone who understands my feelings so well and respects me, so what kind of rule can I keep hiding? “The person who voted in favor is the atrocious Soma.”

I was surprised by her words.

“Isn’t it amazing?”

“yes. “Isn’t Extreme Soma from your brother’s side?”

“That’s right.”

It was unexpected.

It was surprising that the Extreme Evil Demon took our side, and it was even more surprising that the Blood Heavenly Demon persuaded him.

Ilhwa Geomzon interpreted this part as follows.

“They’re both villains, so they probably got along well.”

I chuckled, but she was serious.

“I’m telling you that it’s an incident involving Extreme Soma, in case other people don’t know. Because I am not a person who is easy to see. “Maybe Thomas has other thoughts.”

I asked with a smile.

“Do you hate Old Man Thomas that much?”

“I’m not hateful. Because hating means having some kind of strong emotion. “I just don’t like it.”

She stood up, struggling to push Thomas out of her life.

“Then I guess I’ll just go.”

“Thank you for providing important information.”

“Think of it as a gift from your best friend.”

As she was about to leave, Seo Dae-ryong was standing in the hallway holding a water bottle for the flower pot.

On the other hand, it was an effort to impress Ilhwa Geomzon, but the problem was that she became a little sensitive when she mentioned Doma.

Ilhwa Geomjon spoke coldly to Seo Dae-ryong, who had now become a disciple of the villain Doma from an investigator at Hwangcheongak.

“That flower is my favorite flower. “If I were to die because of someone else’s mistake, I would be very sad.”

When she left, Seo Dae-ryong became tearful.

“From now on, I am the third most important person in this office. “From now on, that flower’s name will be Lee In-ja.”

I laughed at his self-deprecating joke and left the office.

“Where are you going?”

“To meet the evil Soma.”

“omg! “You’re saying such scary things as if you were going to eat?”

“Are you afraid of Extreme Soma?”

Seo Dae-ryong asked with his eyes wide open in surprise.

“Then you’re not scared? “Of all the mazons at our school, I am most afraid of the evil Soma.”

“You said before that the Soul Mazon was the scariest, right?”

“Because he’s dead now.”

“Why is Extreme Soma so scary? “Because the word ‘extreme evil’ is attached to it?”

“Didn’t you hear? “When Extreme Soma gets angry, it’s really scary.”

“When I get angry, I get scared too. “I think you’re the one I’m most afraid of?”

“Please leave me out. I am a person who goes alone when I get angry. My dream is to live without ever getting angry. He was that kind of person…”

He knew and I knew that he had changed quite a bit now, so we looked at each other and laughed.

“Are you really not scared?”

“Why am I scared when I go see funny people?”

“Are you saying you’re a funny person?”

“It’s a cow, right?”

In the face of the extreme evil, people often forget that he is Soma. The same was true for Seo Dae-ryong.

“It won’t be a laughing cow. If you peel off the sign that will make you laugh, you will see written underneath it something like a cow to be burned, a cow to be torn to shreds, a cow to be torn to death, etc. omg! I’m sure you’re not trying to attract the evil Soma to our side, are you? Please say no.”

“Are you afraid that he is your enemy? “Are you afraid of being an ally?”

“Of course… But it’s not possible to use Extreme Soma!”

Even though I said that, I know better than anyone else that the evil Soma is someone who can never be an ally.

Nevertheless, the reason I go to meet him is to make him neither an ally nor an enemy.
