Absolute Regression

Chapter 218

Episode 218: Calling someone over and offering them cheap alcohol?

The hot liquid went down Daeho’s throat.

Daeho felt the taste for the first time in his life the moment he swallowed it. I ate something I should never have eaten.

The Poison King came over and handed me a black pill.

“Chew thoroughly and swallow. Otherwise, your internal organs will all melt.”

Daeho, surprised, hurriedly took the pill. As the solution took effect, I felt an angry feeling inside.

“You must take this antidote once a day until I completely detoxify you. For every hour you are late, one of your internal organs will melt. “The last thing that melts is the heart.”

Daeho’s eyes grew dark. But on the other hand, there was also a glimmer of hope. It must be kept alive because it has some value.

“What should I do now?”

“You should take us to Jisaeng. “That person over there is Lee Ho, I am Samho, and that person over there is Saho.”

In Daeho’s words, the first person Geommugeuk pointed to was Seo Dae-ryong, and the last person it pointed to was King Dok.

The Poison King asked me with a surprised expression.

“Why me?”

“We need three people, but as you can see, they are wearing masks so they can’t come out.”

I deliberately did not call him Soma in front of Daeho.

The Poison King and Extreme Evil Soma’s eyes met again.

“This is the situation, please.”

Although it was not something that Extreme Evil Soma had asked for, he politely spoke to the Poison King.

Just as Extreme Soma had willingly stepped down before, the Poison King also willingly accepted the request.

“Of course. “I will do it.”

At that time, Daeho spoke carefully.

“Everyone looks so young, I don’t know if I can believe it.”

Then Geommugeuk said something meaningful.

“Disbelieving is the key to this matter.”

Daeho couldn’t understand what that meant. However, he asked about one thing he had been curious about the whole time.

“Since you have taken poison, let me ask you just one question. “Who are you?”

“Who is it? “They are our eldest brother’s favorite younger brothers.”

When Geommugeuk pressed his blood transfusion, Daeho collapsed and fell asleep.

After putting him to sleep, Geommugeuk spoke to the two mazons.

“Military Go is working on his work, so you will hear from Jisaeng within a few days. “I threw him a shiny, dazzling lure that he could never refuse.”

This incident was proceeding strictly according to Gowol’s plan. Geommugeuk told Gowol not to feel burdened and to make plans comfortably.

Gowol’s enemy is not Sado-maeng or Ji-saeng. As a soldier, I was trying to do my job properly, so I felt pressured to look good in Geommugeuk.

Seo Dae-ryong carried the dead body of the Iron Swordsman on both sides.

“I will dispose of the body.”

“I will help you.”

Geommugeuk followed outside with the remaining corpse at his side.

Together with Seo Dae-ryong, we dug a deep hole in the backyard and buried the three men. Considering the evil they committed, they should have thrown them into the mountains and become food for animals, but now they had to pretend to be them, so that was not possible.

“As expected, when I came out with Mr. Gakju, corpses were pouring out.”

“Maybe it’s because of you.”

“It’s because of me?”

“When you first met me, you said that our school would not change. Because of that, I strengthened my resolve. “I will definitely make it change.”

Seo Dae-ryong looked at the sword dance in silence and then spoke softly.

“I only gave one, but you repaid me with ten.”

It meant that these words were very thankful and powerful.

If you know how grateful you are, you can give even a hundred instead of ten. This was the heart of sword dance.

Seo Dae-ryong said while looking at the body in the pit.

“sorry. “You died because of me.”

Seo Dae-ryong covered the soil and compacted the floor with his feet. After dealing with it so as not to be noticed, Seo Dae-ryong spoke to me.

“Aren’t you going in?”

“Let’s go in now. “Give the two of you some time to get to know each other.”

Seo Dae-ryong said while looking at the building.

“Now that I think about it, there are two of the scariest people in our school.”

Seo Dae-ryong was secretly curious. What kind of two people will be represented in Geommugeuk?

* * *

Extreme Soma was looking out the window, and the Poison King was just sorting out the poison in his bag.

Then the two people opened their mouths at the same time.

“To the Poison King….”

“To Soma….”

“Ah, speak first.”

“No, please speak first.”

Then there was silence, and then the Poison King spoke first.

“I never thought I would end up in a place like this with you.”

“Me too.”

“You know what? When Gongja Lee talks about the Mazon, his eyes sparkle the most when he mentions you, Soma. Should I say I’m excited? “I get that feeling.”

Was it because I heard something pleasant? The eyes inside Extreme Soma’s eye sockets smiled happily.

“Me too. I think I also get excited when I’m with Gongja Lee. “I don’t know why.”

He won’t know. In his life before returning to Geommugeuk, he wanted to have Geommugeuk as his friend. That he was killed by the sword of the sword dance and was the only person who showed his face. He will never know that the deep relationship between the two existed even before the return.

On the other hand, the Poison King felt differently.

“I feel anxious when I see Lee Gongja. “It’s like a poison with no cure.”

This meant that once addicted, there was no solution. It was also a statement that conveyed the meaning of not wanting to fall into that kind of relationship.

“When we make poison, we consider a poison without an antidote to be a failure.”

Extreme Soma’s gaze turned out the window again. In the yard far away, a poison with no cure was walking towards me while talking with Seo Dae-ryong.

Extreme Soma spoke in a voice barely audible.

“I don’t care.”

* * *

A few days later, Jisaeng received a report from his subordinate.

“I heard a strange rumor about the Iron Inspector.”

“What rumor?”

“It is said that about a month before I came here, they robbed me and obtained three top-quality night wines.”

Ji-saeng was surprised to hear that it was the highest quality Yamyeongju. Not only was it extremely expensive, but it was also so rare that it was not easy to obtain it even if you had the money. This was because it was a purchase that attracted the rejection of strongmen. But you got three of them?

“There are even rumors that several members of the Iron Inspector died in the process.”

“That didn’t happen when we investigated them beforehand, right?”

There were several candidates to take charge of Shin Seon-chae. They were thoroughly investigated, and the people ultimately selected were the Iron Inspectors.

“I think it was probably because it happened recently.”

However, Daeho did not show any such expression at all. When he asked to see his brothers’ faces, didn’t he say he would show them at any time? If several of the four died, it means that all of them died except Dae-ho.

“It’s not difficult to check. We had to meet once anyway. “Go and tell the Iron Inspector to meet me.”

After visiting Ban, Ji-saeng met Prosecutor Cheol again at the manor where they had met last time.

This time too, there was a foot in front of Ji-saeng whose face I could only recognize from that side.

“I see you, old man. These are my brothers. Now, say hello.”

At Dae-ho’s words, the three people took off their bamboo ribs. The moment Ji-saeng saw them, he was startled.

The young man to Daeho’s left was a handsome young man. His eyes were so clear and deep that it was hard to believe that he was a prosecutor who had committed evil deeds throughout his life. The other man was of short stature, and he was also not suitable for the Iron Swordsman. The last man looked so young that he looked like he had just come out of Kangho, let alone the Iron Swordsman.

“You’re younger than I thought.”

“You’re young, so why don’t you work more passionately?”

Sword Dance and Poison King Seo Dae-ryong didn’t even wear the usual disguise. If he had come out wearing a fake beard, he would have avoided suspicion, but he didn’t do it on purpose. All of this was Go Yue’s operation.

Jisaeng asked Geommugeuk.

“Since when did you become the Iron Inspector?”

Geommugeuk glanced at Daeho and spoke in a trembling voice.

“It’s been quite a while.”

The corners of Ji-saeng’s mouth went up at the sight of him slurring his words and not speaking clearly.

‘The rumors might be true.’

It occurred to me that my brothers had died while trying to rob people, and that I had saved new people.

Daeho spoke confidently as if he had nothing to hide.

“Recently, my younger brothers got injured or left, so I received a new one. “They are all trustworthy, so you don’t have to worry about Shin Seon-chae’s affairs.”

Ji-saeng hid his fierce feelings and spoke in a good tone.

“Seeing young and majestic tigers gives me confidence. Please dedicate yourself to the cause. “I will reward you with wealth and fame.”

“I will be loyal.”

That’s how Ji-saeng’s first meeting with the Iron Inspector ended.

* * *

Three days later. In the running carriage, Ji-saeng sent a message to the real Ji-saeng.

?Among the Iron Swordsmen, the one named Daeho has the highest quality Yamyeongju.

The real Jisaeng stopped the carriage. He used to exchange messages while driving a carriage, no matter how important it was, but now he stopped the carriage.

?Really?

-yes.

The real Jisaeng couldn’t hide his excitement. The best quality Yamyeongju was Jisaeng’s favorite treasure and he was collecting it at all costs.

Among the treasures, there were two treasures that rose in price but never fell. Those were Yamyeongju and Pidogju.

Ji-saeng bought Yamyeongju with the money he had saved. I didn’t buy cheap Yamyeongju. I only found the best quality Yamyeongju.

He didn’t put any money into the battlefield. This is because Yayulhan or Sadomaeng could one day search his battlefield and take all the money he had saved. They had that kind of power and were capable of it.

So, only some money was put in the battlefield and the rest was exchanged for night wine. The reason it was a famous wine, not gold, a painting or a work of art, was because it was small and light, making it easy to store and move.

?Are you sure someone is trying to trick you?

The fake Jisaeng confidently answered the doubtful question.

?So I checked again with the information merchant. I’m sure. They attacked the target and in the process, three Iron Inspectors died.

He didn’t know. Both the one who spread the rumor and the one who controls the information in this area are Gowol.

?The only thing that is strange is that you took on this job even though you earned so much money.

?When have you ever seen a thing called greed satisfied?

That was what Ji-saeng felt every time he saw the real Ji-saeng.

-Maybe he was trying to hide in the elder’s shadow.

-How many do you have?

-They say there are three.

Not one, but three. There was no need to worry at all.

-Destroy it as quickly as possible and retrieve Yamyeongju. Find others to entrust Shinseonchae to.

-There was trash like the Iron Inspector all over the central plains. I’ll get it soon.

His greed for wealth was something that no one could stop.

?You tried to get deer meat and ended up getting tiger skin!

Jisaeng chuckled and started the carriage again.

There was only one thing that made him laugh so loudly.

* * *

The Iron Inspector received an invitation from Jisaeng.

When we arrived, food and drinks were set out in the room. The snacks were poor and the alcohol was so cheap that it was difficult to even taste it.

Geommugeuk guessed what this drinking table meant and said with a smile.

“Now that we have become one family, how about putting your foot in the way? “I want to see the elders in good stead.”

Jisaeng laughed beyond his feet.

“As expected, you have spirit because you are young. “Good.”

The foot between Ji-saeng and the Cheolsamho was removed. Ji-saeng was planning to kill everyone anyway, so he showed his face comfortably.

Geommugeuk raised his drink glass high.

“Let’s have a drink together!”

But Ji-saeng did not raise his drink. He showed cold emotions, and naturally the atmosphere cooled down.

“There was a rumor about you, Daeho.”

“What rumor are you talking about?”

“I heard you caught a big case?”

“I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”

“We are from the same family. “Just take a look.”

“I really don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Daeho caught it right away.

Jisaeng nodded.

“Yes, that would be natural. I would have been like that too. “I understand.”

As soon as those words were spoken, four warriors entered the place. They were full of life and had martial arts skills that were superior to that of the Iron Swordsman.

These were Jisaeng’s favorite limbs. It was mainly used when it was necessary to secretly kill someone.

“I don’t know the three new guys anyway, so kill them first.”

Then Geommugeuk spoke to Daeho.

“Our poor brother is going to lose all his younger brothers again.”

Daeho sighed and looked at Jisaeng at Geommugeuk’s words. His eyes looked like this.

‘You’re in big trouble now.’

For some reason, Ji-saeng’s heart was pounding with an inexplicable sense of discomfort. He shouted to his subordinates.

“Hurry and kill me!”

The moment those words fell, the four men fell down all at once, as if they were falling apart.

Ji-saeng was so surprised that his complexion turned pale. All of your men are dead without even swinging your sword once. The order given was not ‘die’ but ‘kill’, so why on earth did you do that?

“poison!”

Before I knew it, the Poison King was waving his fan gently. It was his German weapon, the Mugan Line.

Even though four people were poisoned at the same time, the other people in the room were fine. This truly admirable move was one that only the King of Poison could pull off. There was no cuteness or freshness to be found in him when he was using poison. He was cold and heartless and felt like a completely different person.

Ji-saeng suddenly stood up and pulled out his sword.

The moment he was about to scream and alert the real Jisaeng and other subordinates outside. Geommugeuk placed his index finger over his lips.

Shh!

I just pretended to be quiet, but before I knew it, Ji-saeng’s blood pressure had been subdued.

“How dare you invite someone over and drink such cheap alcohol? “This would be better.”

Looking at the small bottle of poison held out to him, Jisaeng felt that the crisis of his life had come to his life, which he had lived happily with the Apostles on his back.

A crisis too big has come.
