Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 85



Episode 85 The wind blows (5)

Ho Yao-seong’s hardened face.

But there was no sign of fear or worry. It was surprising that even though the blade was placed on his shoulder, he showed no fear at all.

“I did not expect this development.”

“Predictable developments are no fun.”

“I don’t know if it’s fun, but it’s amazing.”

“What you think is none of my business.”

Ho Yaoseong sighed.

“Let’s hear why. Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

“Isn’t that what I have to say?”

“yes?”

“I don’t know how and I don’t know why. But you never came to me out of curiosity or favor.”

Xiliang’s eyes sank deeply.

“Why did you come to see me?”

An ambiguous emergency informed by extra senses.

The super sense that had rang an alarm bell in a corner of my head when I first encountered him now stimulated my head like I was being stabbed by a dagger.

Afterwards, I couldn’t even concentrate properly on the conversation. This is because his awareness of the other person grew, and he focused all his attention only on Ho Yao-seong’s eyes and reactions.

No more. I don’t know how I felt or why I felt that way, but I couldn’t walk with the other person even though I felt there was danger.

“I don’t know what it is, but you felt something strange, so you’re going to threaten me to find out?”

“no.”

“sure?”

“Bringing out a knife wasn’t just a threat.”

“….”

“If I have to, I plan to cut off my head.”

The corners of Hu Yao-seong’s mouth rose.

“You’re going to cut off the head of a general on campus? “No matter how much you do it, you won’t be safe.”

“are you okay. “I can pretend to be a bandit too.”

“aha? “Are you planning on arresting me just because I didn’t know I was a total soldier?”

“If the moment comes when you have to do that, you have to do it.”

Xu Liang’s face was serious. And Ho Yo-seong also noticed the seriousness right away.

Hu Yaocheng’s face, which had been scornful, gradually became expressionless.

“Put your sword in its sheath. “If we are not careful, this situation could be treated as treason.”

“Whether you die now or later, this way or that way, people die anyway.”

“I’ll count to three.”

“I ask for the last time.”

Cheeeeee!

There was a subtle magical energy in the sword.

Although he had little magical energy, he was filled with a lot of firm will. If you don’t give a proper answer to this question, Xu Liang will seriously cut off Hu Yao Sheng’s head.

Knowing that, cold sweat slowly formed on the back of Hu Yaosheng’s neck.

“Why did you come to see me?”

“….”

“I’ll tell you in advance, but if you talk about mere curiosity, you’ll die.”

Ho Yaoseong was staring at Seoliang with a stern face.

Soon he sighed.

“How did you know?”

“If you hear a question, you have to give an answer. The habit of asking questions back is not good. And I said it was definitely the last time.”

“I will tell you, please let me know. How did you know? “I have other intentions.”

Xu Liang frowned.

“I don’t know, it’s just a feeling.”

“A feeling? “You guessed it right?”

“I have a pretty good sixth sense.

And I had already figured out that the world does not operate solely on logic.

So when reason and emotion clash, we usually follow the lead of the latter. “Then at least I don’t regret it.”

“…That’s right.”

This is why you will inevitably laugh.

Ho Yo-seong, who was laughing, suddenly remembered a conversation he had with someone.

– You’ve never even seen my abilities, right? But you’re going to order a total military operation? why?

-Is reason important?

– It’s important. At least for me.

– Let’s call it a sixth sense.

– Are you saying you’re ordering a full-scale military operation just because you think it’ll be okay? What is that? No matter how much you think about it, it makes no sense, right?

– Just keep one thing in mind when doing work for our school in the future.

– You’re already thinking about doing it.

– The world doesn’t work according to logic. This is a mistake smart people like you usually make.

– ….

– To develop intuition.

– Intuition….

– Logic derives the answer at the moment, but intuition presents the answer sheet for the future. That’s where true wisdom comes from.

After hearing those words, Hu Yaocheng bowed to ‘him’. Even though I did not bow down even when I was face to face with the prince, I had no choice but to bow down to him.

This is because, unlike the prince who only gave orders, he gave himself instructions.

Ho Yaoseong whetted his appetite.

“Curiosity calls to imagination, and imagination brings to mind numerous answer sheets.”

“….”

“I wanted to know which of those countless answer sheets was the real correct answer.”

“So you were trying to test me?”

“When I want to know the correct answer that I don’t know, I have to throw the test paper to someone else. “The other person might be able to solve it.”

“What test were you trying to do?”

“There is nothing particularly special about it. “I just wanted to take you to the Cheonma Armed Forces.”

“huh?”

“I have a way to get the Three Dukes to enter the Heavenly Demon Armory.”

“however?”

“I was going to bring it in and observe.”

Seo-ryang’s eyes became sharp.

“It must not have been a simple observation.”

“If you showed me something interesting, I tried to rip you off by saying there was no way for me to do that.”

In other words, you can let them into the Cheonma Armed Forces with your own hands and later treat them as trespassers.

I don’t know how that is possible. However, it was clear that Ho Yo-seong had the brains and strength to do so.

In reality, if such a situation arises, Seo-ryang is bound to face the criminal law.

At that time, even if you are a disciple of the religious leader, you will have to serve your sentence unconditionally. No, if you are not careful, you may end up rotting in prison for the rest of your life.

The crime of trespassing into a secret area without permission is the most serious of serious crimes.

Xi Liang, who was quietly looking at Hu Yao Sheng, drew his sword.

“To be honest, you really have a bad personality.”

Hu Yaosheng grinned. From the other person’s changed tone, he felt that his wariness toward him had been greatly diluted.

“It’s something I hear often. “Sometimes I hear people say I’m a fool or something.”

“What kind of guys with big livers are like that?”

“Because the students at our school are quite generous. Even if they can’t say it openly, they whisper about it behind their backs. “The Three Dukes even drew their swords.”

“You kept it all.”

“If possible, please tell me that you have a good memory. “How can I not forget it?”

Xiliang snorted.

“Anyway, it was quite an interesting meeting. “Then let’s go on our way.”

“Eh? Are you going?”

“sure?”

“Aren’t you going to Cheonma Byeongchang? “How about having drinks with me?”

Xiliang was astonished.

“Are you going to have a sweet drink with someone who was so curious that they even planned to send him to prison? “I told you in advance, but I don’t have to go to the Cheonma Armory.”

“You promised.”

“What do you promise?”

“You agreed to have a drink with me in return for allowing me access to the Heavenly Demon Armies.”

“So even if you don’t need it.”

Hu Yaosheng’s expression became noticeably glum.

“No matter what, I thought you were someone who kept his promises.”

“I didn’t know that Commander-in-Chief was such a wicked person.”

“I stayed up all night for today and finished all my work.”

“Is there any reason why I need to know that?”

“yes.”

“What is it?”

“Didn’t you send a guard to Lord Hwanhee?”

“….”

“Even though you already guessed my intention, wasn’t the reason you sent it to Hwanhee Wonju not to find out something, but to alert her? “Be careful with your mouth from now on.”

Xu Liang’s eyes wavered.

Hu Yaosheng smiled.

“As a result, former Hwanhee Wonju was branded as an untrustworthy person. How will you take responsibility?”

amazing.

Seo-ryang was purely impressed by the other person’s keen insight. It was surprising that he figured out who Ma Dong-pil had been sent to, but his extraordinary ability to immediately understand the intention was truly remarkable.

“Then you shouldn’t have touched me.”

“Did you know it would end up like this?”

Regardless of his extraordinary nature, he is an extremely shameless human being.

Xu Liang sighed.

“great. “If this is the case, let’s have a drink or a binge.”

“You are an excellent choice.”

“Before that, I will stop by Cheonma Byeongchang.”

“Oh, of course. A half-visit would be enough, right? “Tell the kids to set the drinking table in advance…”

“What are you talking about?”

“yes?”

Xi Liang looked at Hu Yao Sheng with eyes wondering if such an innocent person could exist.

Hu Yaosheng’s face suddenly became tinged with discomfort.

“Why are you looking at me like that? “Is one visit not enough?”

“They said they would let me into the Cheonma Armory.”

“You did, right?”

“You obviously said you would let them in ‘once’, but you didn’t say you should only bring ‘one sack’, right?”

“…!”

“It would take half a day, not half an hour, to look around and pick up a few things.”

Ho Yo-seong opened his mouth wide.

Seo-ryang said with a face full of annoyance.

“Let’s go quickly. And if you’re going to ask the kids to watch the drinking table, tell them to bring three or four pieces of boiled duck meat. “It tastes so good these days.”

“No, Confucius….”

“For your information, I like plain food. “If it’s seasoned too hard or has a strong flavor, I won’t eat it.”

After finishing what he had to say, Seoryang walks away.

Ho Yo-seong, who was looking blankly at that carefree back, burst into laughter.

“Is this the first time you’ve been hit in the back of the head?”

* * *

He suggested that he drink alcohol or something hard, but Seoryang only emptied a couple of bottles and got up. It was to familiarize oneself with the weapons brought from the military warehouse.

Seoryang returns home carrying various things in a large bag that can fit even one person.

Hu Yaosheng’s face, which was looking at him with drunken eyes, became increasingly serious.

“You don’t know people until you meet them… So Wonju was right.”

He is a person who cannot be described in just a few words. As anyone would say, there was something special about Seoryang.

“I just can’t figure it out.”

Among the common people, there is talk of marriage even after the age of 15, and by the time they are in their mid-20s, they start a family and establish a foundation for life.

But Moorim is different. Under the premise that talent was outstanding, people in their mid-twenties were just about a rookie who was about to stand out.

It is common sense in martial arts that people reach their peak when they reach their 40s.

Therefore, Seoryang is a novice. It was normal to see it that way.

However, the Seo-ryang I saw today was by no means a novice.

“It looks light at first glance, but it is definitely not light. “The words he blurts out once in a while reveal his own way of looking at the world.”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes sparkled.

“It’s as if Noh Kang-ho, who went through all the hardships before birth, was reborn in the body of a young man.”

It’s been almost seventy-eight years since the two met in private.

However, Hu Yaocheng knew how Xi Liang had lived all this time. Understanding the personality and martial arts skills of the sect leader’s disciples was a natural task for a commander-in-chief.

If you lived as cruelly and ambitiously as you knew, you could never show yourself like that. In the first place, Seoryang’s personality wasn’t like that.

‘There’s something.’

Ho Yo-seong, who had been thinking deeply, soon sighed.

“Well, since he went in and out of Panmajeong, there is no doubt about it.”

At least he is not a person who will harm Protestantism. So, the religious leader must have left the Three Dukes alone.

‘But…’

Hu Yaosheng looked up at the sky.

Countless stars were twinkling all over the dark sky.

“Interesting. What kind of wind is brought by the Three Dukes, who have abandoned the past and transformed themselves?”

Is it a cold wind of winter or a spring breeze with the scent of spring?

Or is it a bloody, terrible wind?

“Look.”

“Yes, soldier.”

“Let’s put the message in the demon palace.”

Hu Yao-sheng’s eyes lit up.

“Tell the leader that I will see you tomorrow morning.”
