Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 87



Episode 87 Growing up (2)

Lee Cheon-sang’s majesty as he sat in the pavilion and languidly drank a glass of wine still remained.

The top was worn loosely, exposing part of the front of the robe draped roughly around the shoulders, and even the expression was extremely indifferent.

Ultimately, I am still not used to this indescribably overwhelming presence.

‘also.’

Seolyang’s eyes deepened as she looked up at him from under the pavilion.

‘I realize this once again. ‘What a monster this person is.’

As I raise my martial arts skills to the current level, I feel it even more deeply.

Even if you are not consciously emitting energy waves, any expert will unconsciously emit sharp prayers.

That was the reason why I felt intimidated when I faced Go Soo.

Seoliang was different.

He was originally an assassin who was good at hiding his intentions and had no desire to show off his power to anyone.

The dream he has longed for his entire life represents his inclinations and is expressed in his prayers.

What about Lee Cheon-sang?

‘This guy has gone beyond even that. ‘He’s a powerhouse who plays in a completely different dimension.’

If you put your mind to it, you can reduce your presence to the size of air, and conversely, you can also emit a pressure that feels like the entire sky is collapsing.

Lee Cheon-sang’s peaceful presence now represents his personality.

A transparency that is indifferent, a strength that will not be shaken even by natural disasters, and a feeling of languor and loneliness that shows no interest in anything because everything has been achieved.

All of them were combined to complete the unique Absolute.

“Are you here?”

“…yes.”

“Come up.”

Seo-ryang climbed the stairs of the pavilion.

Lee Cheon-sang, who was working on his own work, suddenly looked at Seo-ryang walking up the stairs.

Flash!

Eyes that sparkle without anyone noticing.

But his eyes quickly calmed down for a moment.

Xu Liang, who had reached the Seven Steps of Li Cheon Sang, bowed his head.

“I’m meeting the leader.”

“Please sit down.”

The air seems to resonate with the heavy voice.

Seolyang sat down with an expressionless face.

“….”

Stifling silence.

Although he maintained an expressionless face, Seo-ryang’s deception was not true.

‘Damn it…’

A thick tendon appeared on his chin. In the meantime, he did not grind his teeth so as not to be heard by Lee Cheon-sang’s ears.

‘Why did you call me? Why did you call me? ‘Why did they call me?’

I thought a lot while coming here.

‘Okay, it’s time to call it once. uh? But why did you call me this morning? Doesn’t this guy even sleep? ah! ‘Now that I’m old enough, I can’t help but lose my early morning sleep.’

From this light thought.

‘It’s time to call, but why is it now?

uh? for a moment? No matter how much authority the Commander-in-Chief has, there is no way the religious leader wouldn’t know that the Cheonma Armoury was opened, right? Are you really trying to catch a book with that?’

Let’s get past these worrying speculations.

‘Fuck… didn’t you really get caught for leaving?!’

… to extremely serious concerns.

Lee Cheon-sang was a very tiring person in that he caused people anxiety all the time.

Since he was a man of few words, the conversation didn’t last long and I couldn’t tell what he was thinking.

This man is truly the epitome of fatigue.

When Seo-ryang was running through all kinds of imagination inside.

Sreuk.

The empty glass came to Seo-ryang’s table.

“Take a drink.”

Oh yes.

I don’t know if I even knew that I was sipping alcohol all morning. I wondered if this could happen no matter how good the alcohol was.

Xu Liang politely raised his glass.

Lee Cheon-sang poured alcohol into his glass and said.

“It looks like you trained hard.”

“yes? “Oh, that’s right.”

“You treated the fourth child quite harshly?”

For a moment, my heart sank.

‘Keueuung.’

There is definitely something about this guy that goes beyond imagination. To suddenly bring up the topic of Hongwimun, I felt like I had been punched in the back.

I was worried about Oman when I came here, but I couldn’t think about that bastard.

“Yeah well… that’s how it happened.”

Lee Cheon-sang nodded.

“Let’s have a drink.

Two people emptied their drinks at the same time.

This is a truly luxurious and delicious drink. It was a drink I had had several times before.

…The scent that was nice back then feels like the scent of death today.

“Would you like one more drink?”

Oh?

Xiliang narrowed his eyes. I was embarrassed because it was not the reaction Lee Cheon-sang had shown so far.

“It’s good.”

Grrr.

The cup is filled once again.

Lee Cheon-sang opened his mouth again.

“The fourth Four Kings Demonic Attack is a newly modified magical attack based on the martial arts of the Jeoksaga.”

“….”

“He was a stubborn guy. He also had good skills. “No one would think of creating a new martial art at that young age.”

It looks like my tongue is going to pop.

“At first it was substandard. But it gradually improved. After just three years, quite an outstanding magician emerged.”

This guy talks a lot today, doesn’t he?

But I don’t know what I want to say. Since the fourth child, whom you considered so precious, was destroyed, does this mean that you too have to be destroyed?

“But it ended there.”

“…yes?”

“A plan without power may be called ingenious, but it is difficult to be evaluated as complete. “The talent was outstanding, but he was wasting it.”

Lee Cheon-sang, who had filled his own glass, emptied it as well.

“He who does not know his own talent is foolish. “I despise fools.”

“….”

“But those who are complacent even though they know what their talent is, are not even treated as human beings.”

“….”

“So I was disappointed in the fourth. “He shouldn’t have lived like that.”

Xiliang’s eyes deepened.

Lee Cheon-sang did not deserve to be called a good teacher, even if it was just empty words. This is because although his abilities are outstanding, the way he teaches his students is the worst.

However, he is a god. There is no need to be someone’s teacher, nor is it your position to be one.

‘That’s why it’s even greater.’

It doesn’t pay attention to anyone and doesn’t take orders from anyone.

I just complain alone.

“The fourth fell into your hands.”

“….”

“It was unexpected.”

What does this mean?

“I knew about the fourth’s ambition. I also knew that he would not be able to win the presidency. But I had no idea that I would be eliminated from the succession battle so quickly.”

Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes sparkled.

When Seo-ryang saw those eyes, he felt his skin turn bitter.

“He who I despise is a fool. On the other hand, do you know what kind of person I adore?”

“…I don’t know.”

“He exceeded my expectations.”

Seo-ryang, who was quietly looking at Lee Cheon-sang, emptied his glass.

Then Lee Cheon-sang filled his cup again. There was no question as to whether I would like another drink.

“You exceeded my expectations. “It’s been a while.”

“…!”

“That’s why I adore you.”

The goosebumps that had been running up my spine spread to my limbs.

The feeling of admiring someone is not something that can be easily harbored. But this great person was saying that he admired him.

It is unknown whether Lee Cheon-sang’s words are sincere or not. But the very fact that such words came from the mouth of this absolute being was surprising.

Kuuk.

I could feel sweat forming on my tightly clenched fists. I tried to suppress it, but it was difficult to hold back the turbulence rising from deep within my heart.

‘The greatest demon in the world admires me?’

He was raised as the secret weapon of the Uicheon Alliance and lived a life as the leader’s dog. The leader of the Heavenly Demon Church described himself as having lived a life that could not be described as miserable.

‘…shit.’

The sense of pride that comes from turbulence.

The feeling that followed that feeling of pride was self-loathing.

‘Throw it away. You can’t harbor these feelings in just a few words. ‘And then…’

I was afraid that I would fall away from the freedom I had dreamed of my whole life. I thought that if I truly dreamed of freedom, I should not feel proud of the cult leader’s praise.

In the end, did I just decide on a plausible but superficial dream and run blindly, deceiving myself?

Slurp.

Deep sunken eyes. The wavering prayers quickly subsided into silence.

Xu Liang sighed.

‘What kind of ridiculous self-torture is this? A giant like this is acknowledging me? Of course it’s normal to feel proud.’

It is a feeling that anyone can have.

Emotions are something that arises and falls naturally. There is no need to beat yourself up or be anxious about how you feel.

because? Ultimately, even those emotions are part of who I am as a person.

“Whoa.”

He lowered his head and looked at Lee Cheon-sang again.

Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes shone. He noticed a subtle change in Seoliang.

“Look. “You exceeded my expectations even at this moment.”

“….”

“Change and grow every moment. “That’s why you’re so great.”

Seo-ryang, who was quietly looking at Lee Cheon-sang, chuckled.

This is not a smile worth showing in front of two heavenly figures. Still, he laughed like that.

Why? I felt like I could laugh like this.

And I thought it would be okay to say this.

“It really doesn’t suit the leader to say that.”

“….”

“I’m just a different species.”

Lee Cheon-sang, who was silently looking at him, lifted the bottle again.

When Xu Liang emptied his glass, he poured the drink again.

“The general military came last night.”

“….”

“They said they opened the Heavenly Demon Armory.”

“….”

“Did the weapons you brought fit your hands?”

“yes. “It was really cold, right?”

Lee Cheon-sang nodded.

“The seven nights are ferocious and the shooting stars are sharp. “He has quite an eye.”

“If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have taken it.”

“All weapons are like that. “I would have been rather disappointed if I had taken something that was not suitable for my ancestors’ relics.”

Finding common ground in unexpected corners.

After emptying his glass again, Lee Cheon-sang turned his head and looked at the pond.

It was not a very flashy pond, but when he looked at it, even the simple pond looked dazzlingly beautiful.

“I guess you haven’t been able to wield those swords you liked comfortably yet.”

“Right… right?”

Slurp.

Lee Cheon-sang stood up. Seoryang also stood up hesitantly.

“Come down.”

After a while, two people stood in the clearing.

Lee Cheon-sang stretched out his right hand toward somewhere.

Piiiiing!

In an instant, the sound of a gold string being cut was heard, and at the same time, four swords were thrust into the ground in front of Seo-ryang.

‘…!!’

It’s a piece of empty space that is truly a miracle. Seolyang could not help but open his mouth wide at this incredible move.

‘I didn’t feel the wave of internal power? ‘It’s not like someone threw it to you?’

Could it be that you brought the weapons that were placed at the entrance solely out of will? really?

‘Who on earth is this person…’

Lee Cheon-sang’s martial arts skills I’ve never seen before.

It was only one move, but I felt a mind-numbing gap. It was so overwhelming that discussing the prowess of martial arts was meaningless.

Lee Cheon-sang said.

“It is a reward given to a disciple who goes beyond expectations.”

“…yes?”

“Pick what you like.”

“…!”

Lee Cheon-sang held out his hand.

An ambiguous hand gesture, as if trying to hand something over or ask someone to give it to you.

“I’ll teach you a lesson.”

grasp!

Seo-ryang, holding one of the four swords, swung the sword like lightning.
