Absolute Regression

Chapter 142

Episode 142 The answer lies with you.

Yuepungmunju Chu Saeng (??) was struggling to hold back his boiling anger.

“Don’t worry too much. “Several sects in Honam have pledged to cooperate with us.”

It was these words that made him angry. He was even more angry because it came from the mouth of Seok-hyung, whom he trusted.

“Cooperation? how? Let me be specific. How many people did you say you would send and when and where?”

Seokhyung couldn’t answer. They only responded that they would help, but no faction stepped forward in such a specific way. Although it was kept a secret, there were already rumors that the Demonic Cult was involved.

“Imagine we are in their shoes. Do you think they would have sent you to deal with the demonic bastards? “He might act like he’s worried on the outside, but he’s probably busy locking down the door to my house.”

Chusaeng suddenly stood up. Seok-hyung stopped him because he looked like he was about to break something.

“Fix it.”

“How can I hold back when I’m angry? You demon cult bastards! “I will chew you alive!”

Boom!

Chusaeng fired his sword and punched a hole in the wall. After the incident occurred, more than twenty holes were already created in the wall. If you block it, it will break through again, and if you block it, it will break through again.

Chu Saeng was so angry and mortified. Chimi couldn’t hold back her anger. And at the root of all those emotions was fear.

I’m afraid he’ll come back again.

Chu Sheng couldn’t sleep at night and his nerves were extremely sensitive.

“Why don’t you ask the Murim Alliance for help right now?”

The Wolpungmun was originally a Jeongsajigan sect and was not affiliated with the Murim Alliance or the Sado Alliance.

“If you do that, you will be swayed by the Murim Alliance in the future. “If they solve this problem, we will have to use that as an excuse to obey the Murim Alliance unconditionally, and even if they can’t solve it, they will use this or that as an excuse to subjugate us to the Murim Alliance.”

Members of the Murim Alliance must pay a certain amount of money to the Murim Alliance each year. It was the same for the Heavenly Demon Church and the Apostolic Alliance. Instead, I was able to get help when a problem arose.

Money is money, but Chu Saeng did not want to belong to a political faction.

It was right then. Someone told him exactly what was on his mind.

“You don’t want to fall under people who are constantly taking money from you without doing anything for you on a regular basis. “Isn’t that right?”

Chusaeng and Seokhyeong looked back in surprise. At some point, a young man came into the main hall.

Seokhyeong blocked the space between Munju and the man and drew his sword.

“Who are you?”

The two people were nervous about the fact that they didn’t know until someone came in like this.

Then the young man said.

“I came from Protestantism.”

I was the one who shocked them both.

I could have announced from the entrance and come in, but I didn’t. Wolpungmun Gate was now in a hectic situation, crowded with numerous warriors from the entrance to the inside.

“Please understand. “I didn’t like crowds, so I came in quietly.”

Chusaeng pushed Seokhyeong back. If I had planned to attack them by surprise, I would have acknowledged that they would already be dead.

“I am Chusaeng, the lord of Wolpungmun Gate.”

Having lost his father at an early age, he was one of the youngest heads of the sect in Hunan Province and was in his late twenties.

I did not reveal my identity to him.

“This time, I came out to deal with an incident that occurred in Gwipa. “I cannot reveal your identity due to circumstances, but you will recognize this, right?”

We showed them a new tablet with an evil spirit symbolizing our school engraved on it.

Of course, Chusaeng was suspicious.

“The sacred tablet can be counterfeit, so you can’t rely on that alone.”

“How did someone so suspicious get deceived by these guys?”

“Say too much!”

Just as Seokhyung took a step forward, I stretched out my hand.

Shoot ahhh.

The magical energy released from me tightened Seokhyeong’s body.

He could not move his body as he let out a single, groaning scream. His face turned red as he began to choke.

“Isn’t it true that sometimes ability can replace status?”

As the demonic energy took over the surroundings, Chusheng spoke urgently.

“stop! I lost several of my subordinates this time, but I can’t lose them again. “Let him go.”

When I withdrew my magical energy, Seokhyeong was able to move while out of breath. He glared at me with fearful eyes, but was still blocking his way to protect Chu Sheng.

“I have loyal followers like you. Losing them would really feel like my heart was being ripped out of me. “The same goes for Chu Mun-ju here, so you two should not act rashly.”

I said this to Seokhyeong, but in fact, I also said it to Chusaeng. Chu-saeng, who was quick to notice, sent Seok-hyeong away.

“You stay out.”

“yes.”

Seeing him leaving obediently in this situation seems to have sent a message. Since the two of them alone couldn’t deal with me anyway, it was probably an order to go out and gather all the Wolpungmun masters.

Even if only the two of them were left, Chusaeng was proud.

“Whenever you do something wrong, what on earth do you intend to come and fix it now?”

“It’s not a fix, it’s an investigation. “The incident that happened earlier was not our fault.”

Chu Sheng snorted. He was victimized by Cheonmyeonghoe, who impersonated the Mazon of our school, and he completely believed that we had done it.

Similar incidents have occurred several times recently, but not all factions in the central region were aware of this fact yet.

In other words, it was a time when Cheonmyeonghoe did not surface in earnest.

“Tell me what happened. “If I had come to harm you, would you be arguing like this now?”

Chusaeng’s words seemed to have resonated with him and he finally opened up about the past incident.

“A while ago, someone came to see me saying that I had left the Protestant church.”

“Who did you say you were?”

“He was a very evil soma.”

I knew that they were impersonating Mazon, but I didn’t know that the target was Extreme Soma.

I couldn’t help but laugh. If you really get caught by a very evil soma, why do you have to pretend to be someone else but a very evil soma?

“What does it look like?”

“I came wearing a white mask.”

but. The easiest Mazon to impersonate is the Extremely Evil Soma since he wears a mask.

“Did you believe him under the mask?”

Then Chusaeng spoke with confidence.

“He was a truly evil soma.”

“Why do you believe that?”

At that moment, Chu Sheng was overcome with anger.

“He killed the masters of the text in an instant. His face was punctured by the wind, and his body was torn into pieces by his magic. Among those who died, there was a master who is listed among the three in the text. “If he’s not a diabolical soma, then who is he?”

It seems to have even imitated the Demonic Gwangbokjang and Hyeolangji, the poisonous magic arts of Extreme Evil Soma. Since the situation was like this, Chu Saeng had no choice but to believe it.

“After killing those who tried to protect me and turning them into a sea of blood, Extreme Evil Soma forced us to obey the Demonic Cult and swear allegiance.”

He committed unnecessary killings just to scare his opponents. That act alone is an evil that deserves death.

“And do you know what else he did? It would be less absurd if he at least massacred us. “I would have thought I was going to die because I was unlucky.”

“What did he do?”

“They took my money when I left. He told me to give up all the money I can now. All the money in the main text was stolen. “What are you doing when you’re talking about stealing?”

It was a situation where I could understand no matter what swearing was said afterwards.

“How much money did you take?”

“It’ll be around 62,000 nyang.”

Only now could I understand Chu Sheng’s anger. I could also understand why there were so many holes in the wall.

“If I had lost the fight for some other reason, it wouldn’t have been so unfair. Obey the Demonic Cult? Don’t be funny! That was an excuse, and he killed my men like that to take the money. Do you see what I mean? My men died just for money! “It would be better to ask for money from the beginning!”

He couldn’t bear it anymore and screamed.

“Aaaah! I’m so angry I can’t stand it. “I will not be disfellowshipped.”

Judging from what Chusaeng said, I thought he must have been a cheerful and happy person. If things continue like this, we will never be able to go back to that time. The families, friends, and survivors of those who died. The number of victims has not yet been determined.

“Right now, Munju Chu is so angry that he can’t use his strengths.”

“What are my strengths?”

I took the paper out of my pocket and read it.

“Yuepungmunju Chusaeng has a clear mind and good judgment. “He has strong pride and is hot-tempered.”

“What kind of person made that assessment?”

“Our school’s Tongcheongak Honam Jidanjuyo. Would you like to meet him sometime?”

Chusaeng looked at me with eyes wondering whether I should believe this or not, and then blamed himself in a weak tone.

“What would you do if you were bright and had good judgment? “I just suffered this helplessly.”

“But shouldn’t you take revenge?”

Chusaeng’s eyes tightened at the word revenge.

“I will do it, I will definitely do it.”

There was a time when I felt the same way.

Revenge when you sleep, revenge when you eat, revenge when you see someone. A time when I couldn’t live a normal life because all I could think about was how to get revenge.

The same was true for Chusaeng. This is an enemy he cannot deal with through normal means.

But fortunately, he met me just like I met Seojin.

“I will help you get revenge.”

Chusaeng went to the table and drank the cold tea from the kettle.

“It’s really not your fault?”

“Don’t you feel strange too? If the evil Soma was really after your money, would he have taken only 62,000 nyang? “The roots of all the pillars must have been pulled out.”

“What if it was just some kind of entertainment?”

“If you enjoy entertainment like this, you will die at the hands of the Heavenly Demon Lord. Let’s say it was entertainment. “If that were the case, who would be alive here?”

“To be honest, I found it strange too. So I thought Extreme Soma was crazy.”

If I stare at the white wall like that, I’ll go crazy someday.

“You’re still fine. “Because we met not long ago.”

Chusaeng was startled when he heard that I had met a very evil soma. However, because of the skills I showed, they didn’t think I was bluffing.

“Are you really saying that Extreme Soma is at your school?”

For a moment, I hesitated to answer. Because when I set out, Extreme Soma was not in the Wicked Valley.

“There was.”

The reason I answered like this wasn’t because I didn’t want to argue with Chu Sheng. This is because I am confident that it is not an evil act. My father says you can never know the inside of a person, but there are still things you can know. No matter how evil Soma is, he is not the kind of person who would do something like this.

“If he is a fake, then the people in your church are also fake.”

I wondered how strong he must have been to even say something like that.

I walked slowly and looked around the main hall. I thought about the situation at that time. The sight of them killing the warriors at Wolpungmun Gate and stealing their money.

Why on earth did they do this? because of money? Or to draw us in? We must find clues about them in this incomprehensible incident.

“Okay. Let’s say it’s fake, as you say. Why on earth did that fake guy do this? Are you trying to create a conflict with the Murim League? Are you trying to start a war?”

“If that were the case, it would have touched the political faction belonging to the Murim Alliance.”

“Then what’s going on?”

“That’s why I came. “To find out what’s going on.”

Chusaeng stared at me for a moment, then opened the door and went out. Outside, Seokhyeong, who had gone ahead, and dozens of Wolpungmun warriors were camped out.

Chusaeng went out alone and spoke to Seokhyeong.

“Get all your servants out, clean the guest room, and give it to me. “We will treat you as a guest of honor for the time being.”

“all right.”

Seokhyung looked happy. They called together the warriors, but it seems they decided they couldn’t handle me.

Chusaeng came back inside.

“The thought that you might be in the same company as him never leaves my head. Still, I plan to trust you. Do you know why? Because I have to grasp at straws now.”

Then suddenly he looked up at the ceiling and shouted.

“father! grandfather! Please help me! Please don’t let me be harassed anymore! Please take a close look at the text! “Please save your men!”

Seeing as he was destined to meet me, his ancestors are already helping him enough.

He shouted loudly and revealed his true feelings. I lowered my voice so that my subordinates outside could not hear.

“I was ruined because you came. If he is a fake Extreme Soma like you said, then I can’t stop seeking revenge. If it were a true demonic religion, it would have been able to give up because it had no choice. Because of you, I have stepped onto a bridge I can never return to. “I have to cross this endless bridge for the rest of my life!”

“I will help you cross that bridge.”

In the past, I arrived late and left without being able to properly investigate because I was in a hurry.

I didn’t see my father or Ian in those days. It was a time when I didn’t look at others and only looked at myself, so of course I didn’t look at Chusaeng.

“There are many sects in Murim, so there must be a reason why I chose yours. Why you? He is young, bright, hot-tempered, and has strong pride. “What else do you have besides what’s written on this paper?”

I walked up to him, looked intently at his face, and said,

“There must be a reason why they chose you. Come on and give us an answer!”
