Absolute Regression

Chapter 229

Episode 229: Have you come to collect your life debt?

A man got out of the carriage.

The man had a well-toned body and a cold appearance.

The expression that not a single drop of blood would come out even if he was stabbed went very well with the expressionless expression that seemed to exist for him. He was creepy yet neat.

The man got off the carriage and entered the wide open manor. At the entrance to the manor, there was a signboard saying “Daeyabang (???).”

A terrible scene unfolded upon entering.

More than a hundred corpses were scattered everywhere. It looked like the bandits in Daeyabang had been massacred. Among the corpses, warriors dressed in red uniforms were searching for and killing the survivors.

It was a terrible sight reminiscent of a battlefield, but the man walked on without even batting an eye.

The blood splattered on the floor and soaked his shoes and pants, but he didn’t care.

Rather, the sight of him walking through a sea of blood suited him very well. He made his presence known from the moment he walked. It was a terrifying presence that felt like no one could stop it unless they stopped themselves.

The man was none other than Ya Yul-han, the second-in-command of the Sadomaeng.

The soldiers in red uniforms who massacred this place were soldiers of the Extreme Military Corps.

Extreme military unit. The elite organization of the Apostolic Alliance led by Yayulhan.

The soldiers of the extreme military bowed their heads politely every time Yayulhan passed by. The spirit of each of them was unusual.

Yayulhan entered the main hall.

On the large chair in the middle, the Ark of the Basilica was sitting, leaning at an angle. He was seriously injured and covered in blood, and there were corpses of soldiers from the Extreme Military Corps scattered around him.

“Yes you bastard!”

The basin ark roared. However, his insides were shaking and he was vomiting blood.

“How dare you! “How could you do this!”

In contrast to the excited Daeyangju, Yayulhan was very calm.

He walked somewhere. In the corner, there was a soldier from the extreme military unit who was still alive. He was breathing in pain. The injury is so severe that it is already irreversible.

Without hesitation, Yayulhan placed his palm on his chest.

Soon, the warrior passed away as if he was falling asleep. The words of the Great Ark were heard from behind.

“I’ll tell you now, I always felt creepy and bad when I saw your face.”

Yayulhan showed no emotional agitation.

“You always hid your emotions.”

Daya Ark had never felt any emotion towards Yayulhan. I have never seen him happy, sad, or angry.

“Are there human emotions inside that body?”

Then Yayulhan answered calmly and stood up.

“Should there be?”

His deep yet pleasant voice echoed through the main hall.

“what?”

“Do you really need to have those human emotions you mentioned?”

When asked so confidently, the Great Ark didn’t know what to say.

“I’m a little embarrassed to hear that from you. “You are a person who has not lived a very human life.”

“Shut up!”

The old man screamed and vomited blood again. Dark red blood soaked his clothes.

“But he didn’t live a life where he was falsely accused and killed a Bangpa.”

He was exterminated today for the crime of colluding with the Murim League and plotting a rebellion. The evidence was clear. A handwriting that he did not write came out, but the handwriting was the same as his own. A large sum of money that he did not know he had received from the Murim Alliance was stored on the battlefield. There were circumstances in which confidential information from the Sado Alliance was stolen, testimony was given, and there were also witnesses who witnessed secret conversations with members of the Murim Alliance. He was an obvious traitor even to himself.

“Let’s find out why. because?”

Daeya Ark was convinced that the one who had lured him into the trap was Yayulhan.

“You forgot.”

Daiya Ark was startled by Yayulhan’s words. It was as if he had made a big mistake.

“What do you mean?”

“You did that to me before. “If a person acts too much, it can make the other person feel bad.”

The Great Ark had no recollection of saying such a thing. Did I do that? It was a blur.

“You couldn’t hold back what you wanted to say. Can’t control your emotions while living in martial arts? “I hate people like that.”

“so?”

Yayulhan said no more.

At that moment, the basin was shocked.

“Are you saying that’s the whole reason?”

“Do you need a clearer reason than this to kill people you hate?”

The basin ark roared.

“You crazy bastard!”

Compared to the excited Daeyangju, Yayulhan was calm.

“There are as many people as grains of sand in the world, so why go with someone you don’t like?”

Yes, the basin ark understood up to that point. I didn’t understand, but let’s say I understood. But I couldn’t understand this part at all.

“Then you should have just killed me!”

“I felt too bad for that.”

“No matter how much it is… Are you saying that even innocent people are killed for something like that?”

The basin ark let out a painful sigh.

Tears flowed from his eyes. It would have been less unfair if something like this had happened with great resentment. I would have felt less sorry for the family members in Bangpa. My family is being destroyed because of a word I can’t even remember?

The Great Ark spoke in a self-mocking tone.

“I guess this is all fate.”

“You might want to blame fate, but this is your fault. “It’s because of your insensitivity to attaching the word ‘at best’ to other people’s feelings.”

The basin ark beckoned me to come closer.

“I have something to tell you before I die.”

Did you feel death? The anger disappeared from the Great Ark’s face.

Yayulhan approached him.

A little closer, a little closer. The basin ark beckoned with difficulty.

Yayulhan obediently listened to his last request.

The distance between the two people has become closer.

Easy profit!

The Great Ark mobilized all of its remaining strength and struck the blow. Those difficult hand gestures a moment ago were an act for this one move.

Flash! Suddenly!

But Yayulhan’s sword came first. His sword was so fast and accurate that it was invisible to the eye.

Derurrrrr.

The decapitated head of the Ark rolled on the floor. Yayulhan looked at his head and said coldly.

“You old man, do you think I did this for that reason?”

After Daiya Ark left behind words that would not close his eyes even if he died, Yayulhan came out.

When he went outside, it started to rain.

Shoot.

Yayulhan stood under the eaves for a moment and looked up at the pouring rain.

A man ran there in the rain and handed me a blood jacket. He was a chahwan with dragon tattoos all over his body. The last living man in the four-member group.

He had dragon tattoos all over his body, but the animal that reminded him of was a black leopard. Dark skin and slim body. Even the white eyes that stand out especially because of the dark skin.

But he was a man who wanted to be a dragon rather than a leopard. He prided himself on having the highest level of loyalty among the four members. He believed that the reason Yayulhan only kept him by his side was because he recognized his loyalty.

“done. “Let’s get some rain for the first time in a while.”

Yayulhan walked in the rain, and Chahwan followed behind without a word. Once again, the soldiers of the Extreme Military Corps lined up and walked behind them.

* * *

I arrived at the extreme soma and the safe house.

Gowol was waiting for us with new news.

“Something unusual is happening within the Apostolic Alliance.”

“What happened?”

“Recently, Daeyabang was destroyed.”

“To whom?”

“Daeyabang committed the crime of rebellion by colluding with the Murim Alliance. The evidence was clear, and in the process of arresting them, they were annihilated by the extreme soldiers led by Yayulhan. “I believe this was Yayulhan’s doing.”

Gowol was accurately grasping the situation.

Even before the return, Daeyabang was destroyed by Yayulhan. But the times have changed. Things happen, but the timing or cause may vary subtly.

“Why do you think so?”

“First of all, from what I understand, Daiya Ark is not someone who would ever betray the Apostle Lord.”

And there was another decisive reason for Gowol’s suspicion.

“The timing is unfortunate. Do you know when the Sadomaeng began investigating Daeyabang after receiving information about this incident?”

“When?”

“When my favorite car died.”

It was a truly unfortunate moment.

Gowol judged this as follows.

“When two of the four limbs died, Yayulhan seemed convinced that someone had intervened.”

“no way?”

“Yes, I think the Apostle Lord is behind that.”

It was truly unexpected.

“Did you hit Daeyabang as revenge?”

“Daeya Ark is a famous figure who is pro-Mengzhou. “He warned me what would happen if Yayulhan touched him.”

It was a very probable guess.

It was a public fact that Yayulhan was greedy for the position of leader. Right now, the Apostle Lord is so powerful that he doesn’t dare to covet that position, but the situation will be different when the Bisain takes that position.

There were even public rumors floating around that the Sado Lord had to kill Yayulhan in order to hand over his position to Bisain.

In a situation where a tense power relationship is maintained that keeps each other in check.

“It seems that Yayulhan believes that the Sado Lord started cutting off his own hands and feet in order to make Bisain his successor.”

What was going to happen one day happened earlier because of our movement.

“This is a golden opportunity. “If we can take advantage of this situation, we won’t have to worry about what happens after we kill Yayulhan.”

A truly unexpected situation was waiting for us.

“You mean to kill Yayulhan and make the person who killed him become Bisain?”

“you’re right. Not bad for non-signs either. “He will definitely be established as the successor, and we will succeed in this operation.”

I looked at Extreme Soma, who was listening along with me. Extreme Soma, who was just listening in silence, had a look in his eyes that said he would follow my will no matter how the situation progressed.

Then, what had to be done was decided.

“I guess I should meet my friend first. “I don’t know if you still consider me a friend.”

* * *

Bisain was eating at a luxury guesthouse he frequented.

His face was still ugly. Cut, crushed, and distorted. An appearance that makes your heart goosebumps just by looking at it. However, it felt a little brighter than the dark and heavy energy before he became the successor.

Around him, the Thirteen Apostles were eating together and guarding him.

A ray of sound flew to Bisain.

-How are you?

Bisain’s chopsticks stopped for a moment and then moved again.

-You really are fearless. You came all the way to the headquarters of the main alliance.

Although his words were blunt, his tone was gentle. He owed me his life. If it weren’t for me, he wouldn’t have become the successor.

-I have something to discuss with you in private.

-Do it here. Do you mean to say that you know how difficult it is for the successor of the Apostolic Alliance to go out alone?

?In the future, I will live a life where everything I say comes true. So, do some difficult things now. Let’s meet at the top of the mountain behind Sadomaeng at midnight.

I saw it before leaving the guest room. There was a faint smile on Bisign’s lips. I don’t know if it was a friend, but at least it was a smile that wasn’t an enemy.

* * *

I was standing on the top of a mountain overlooking the headquarters of the Apostolic Association.

While I was wandering around looking for Dafa materials before returning, I once stood here and looked down at the Apostolic Alliance. I was standing here with the thought that if I just went back, everything would be resolved.

At that time, Bisain’s voice was heard from behind.

“Is there something important you want to talk about that you’re calling someone out at this time of night? “You can just drink it in the guesthouse.”

I said without turning around.

“I was afraid you would tip over the table.”

“It must have been okay because everyone knew how bad I was.”

Bisain stood next to me.

“Why don’t you even turn around if I push you from behind?”

“Haven’t we become close enough that we don’t have to worry about that?”

When I looked at him, Visan snorted.

“I guess that’s not it. “I guess I’m taking my time because even if I fall, I can get down without getting hurt at all.”

“That’s also true.”

When I saw him with a smiling face, Bisain turned his gaze and looked at the Apostolic Alliance building in the distance.

“Are you here to collect your life debt?”

“Why can’t it just be a life debt? “I also have to accept the successor debt.”

“What do you want?”

“Will you listen to anything?”

“If you can listen.”

I looked at him. Bisain also saw me.

“Let’s eat Yayulhan porridge.”

He was startled by my sudden words.

“I knew you were a strange person, but I had no idea you were so desperately crazy.”

There was a moment of silence and then he asked:

“Are you going to go to war with us?”

“If I were, I wouldn’t be having this conversation with you. “I came to kill Yayulhan.”

“Why are you trying to kill him?”

“The silver circle he raised with his blood turned around and came to me.”

Since Bisain knew very well what kind of person Yayulhan was, he did not ask any more questions. How many people are at odds with him?

“If you become the leader, Yayulhan will definitely aim for your position. So, the Apostle Lord must be worried right now. When will we get rid of Yayulhan? What if you don’t think like that?”

“What if I don’t?”

“The Apostle Lord chose Yayulhan as his successor. “It’s like handing over the leader’s position to me even though I know you’ll die.”

“!”

He didn’t say anything. Your mind will be complicated. Yayulhan was an enemy that must be killed in order to become the leader, but at the same time, he was the greatest strength that supported the Apostle Alliance.

“Hitting Daeyabang this time was just a prelude to hitting you.”

Bisain could not deny that statement. The death of the Great Ark must have been a great shock to the Apostle Lord and to him as well.

“Do you remember? “Someday, when I become the Heavenly Demon and you become the Lord of the Apostles and we meet again, we said we would shake hands to reminisce about that time.”

I stared into Bisain’s conflicted eyes. I know that this is not an easy decision for him to make. But my success or failure also depends on this.

“I want to shake hands with you, not Yayulhan.”
