Absolute Regression

Chapter 60

Episode 60 There are many hidden tails.

The place Ma Yi was headed was not Uibang.

He took me to his residence, where there was a separate secret room in the basement for important procedures.

The cabinets that filled the walls displayed all kinds of medicine bottles and herbs whose contents were unknown. There were many herbs that even I, an expert in medicinal herbs, had never seen before.

“It’s a dangerous procedure, so there’s a lot to prepare for.”

“Take your time.”

“What if I fail? “You could go blind.”

I could tell that he was asking to gauge my will. Because there was no such thing as blindness due to failure in Shinanjutsu. If it was a procedure with such risks, I would not have dared to offer it to the Heavenly Demon.

“If there is a patient whose magic medicine fails, it will be because of my fate.”

The doctor laughed at my belief and took out the materials needed for the procedure from the secret safe.

Immediately after, I lit soothing incense and disinfected my saliva. Several drugs were mixed and some were boiled and cooled.

Meanwhile, I was lying on the bed with my top off, holding a warm, medicinally scented cloth over my eyes.

“Okay then, let’s begin.”

“i look forward to.”

He put several medications in my eyes at different times. Some were as clear as water and some were as red as blood. There was a green liquid like poison, and there was also a blue liquid like my sword. Since I completely trusted Dr. Ma, I left my eyes in peace.

After injecting several drugs into the eyes, the horse doctor placed acupuncture needles. Saliva was poured not only around the eyes but also on the face and chest.

“Now take a nap.”

My eyes closed automatically. I spoke with my heart to the Heavenly Demon Guardian God. You too, relax and sleep well for today.

I slept well for the first time in a long time.

I slept so soundly that I wondered how long it had been since I last slept so soundly.

When I woke up, all the saliva I had placed on my face and body had already been recovered.

Ma was sitting at the desk reading a book, and when I woke up, he walked towards me.

“How do you feel?”

“great.”

“What about the eyes?”

“It’s better.”

My eyes really became clearer. My eyesight, which was originally good, got even better and my vision was very clear. It felt like I was coming out of a fog, but the surroundings were so clear that I felt like I had lived with my eyes closed all this time, to exaggerate a bit.

“Follow me.”

I left the secret room with him and went up to the first floor. We stood side by side at the window. The sun was high in the sky.

“Look at the sun.”

Because I was looking directly at the sun, my eyes felt dazzling, but it wasn’t dazzling at all.

“How is it?”

“It’s not dazzling.”

“Look over there.”

Things in the distance that would not have been visible before were clearly visible. It looked amazingly good. And when I strained my eyes, I could see everything that shouldn’t be visible.

“It looks good. “You can even see ants crawling on the tree branches over there.”

Ma Yi laughed at my words.

“It’s not a joke.”

“I know, it’s not a joke. “He laughed with joy.”

“Oh, that’s really great.”

“Now follow me again.”

This time, the doctor took me to a dark room in a secret underground room.

The vision that had been blurred only by raising the internal power was clearly visible even without raising the internal power.

“It looks good. “I can clearly see the medicine bottle over there and the picture on the wall.”

“Okay, the procedure was a complete success. “Your eyes have been reborn.”

“thank you. thank you.”

Even when I wanted to practice Shinanjutsu, my main purpose was to avoid the eyes of the Pungcheon religious leader. So it seems that I didn’t have much expectations about the effects of this Shinanjutsu.

But Shinanjutsu was much more amazing than I thought. This is probably the only word to describe this state.

My eyes were wide open.

After coming out of the dark room, I bowed to Ma Yi.

“thank you.”

The embarrassed horse helped me up.

“Why are you like this?”

“The old man used a secret magic on me that can be used once in a lifetime. “I will definitely repay this favor by keeping my promise.”

“Thank you. “When you become the leader of the cult, you will tell me who to kill.”

Ma Yi held my hand firmly and I also gave it strength.

As I left Ma Yi’s residence, I saw different things everywhere. It really felt like a new world had unfolded.

Suddenly this thought occurred to me.

‘The blood stabilization water and Shinanjutsu are the same. Pungcheongyo and my eyes were intertwined like fate. Anyway, thank you, Master Pungcheon.’

In this way, the Pungcheon religious leader received a mysterious thank you.

I realized once again how important it is to have good eyesight when it comes to martial arts.

Herbivory became more sophisticated, and as it became more sophisticated, it became stronger.

In fact, a greater help than this will come in practice. You will avoid attacks that were previously unavoidable and you will see opportunities that you could not see before.

It will also be of great help when running at a fast pace. I was worried that my eyesight would be able to support the extreme speed if I later achieved great success, but now that worry is gone. Because I have the most powerful eyes a human can have.

After leaving the Hwangcheongak work to Seo Dae-ryong, I stayed in the training hall for a while to give my martial arts skills and body time to adjust to the new eyes.

After being immersed in martial arts training for a while, I visited Ian for the first time in a while.

“Ian, let’s play!”

Ian was absorbed in martial arts training.

“No! “You have to practice it over and over again twenty times.”

“Why do you practice herbivory 20 times a day?”

“Sixty times a day. “There are twenty evening retreats.”

“oh my god. I’m sick, I’m sick.”

“I’m already sick. “It’s a disease where you can’t sleep if you don’t practice.”

“Let’s just rest for today. “If you go and have a drink with me, you’ll sleep well.”

“I’m done.”

“How many times are left?”

“Eight times. “If you interrupt me like that, it will take longer.”

I pouted my mouth and watched her practicing martial arts.

“My back turned less.”

“The left side is empty.”

“Faster this time.”

As I corrected her posture, I felt again that Ian was very talented in martial arts. She understood quickly and learned well.

I watched her eat a couple more times, then felt that I had nothing to say today and fell into the practice of Cheonma Defense.

The martial art that I trained the most in the process of dealing with the Demon Lord was the Heavenly Demon Defense Sword. The more you learn the Cheonma Self-Defense Technique, the more it feels new.

As always, he connects with me most deeply. It felt like I was learning a living martial art. Actually, connecting this deeply may be something that wakes me up from my sleep.

How many times did he repeat the training of the Heavenly Demon Tiger God like that?

When I opened my eyes, I saw Ian looking at me from some distance away.

“done?”

“yes. “I filled it all 20 times.”

“Let’s go have a drink! “I feel like I’m starving to death.”

“of course. “You starved for three full days.”

“what? “Three days?”

“yes. “You’ve had good luck for three days.”

“I?”

“It was three days ago that you came to see me. It seemed like you were in a trance. “I didn’t speak to you on purpose.”

I was surprised. I don’t think I’ve practiced even one session, let alone a few sessions.

“I guess I slept?”

“I checked to see if that was the case, but he wasn’t sleeping. “He was muttering something to himself.”

I really must have been in a trance. I couldn’t remember anything about the training.

“wait for a sec.”

I sat down and performed the Cheonma Self-Defense Technique once. The machine operated much more smoothly and accurately than before.

I stood up and smiled brightly. There has been great progress in the Cheonma Self-defense Gong. It seems that the training that has been going on for a while has accumulated and led to a rise to the level through this trance.

“You got results, right?”

You can tell just by looking at my expression. I smiled broadly and nodded.

“Enough to buy a nice meal.”

“Congratulations, Master.”

“thanks. “It’s thanks to you.”

“Why is it thanks to me?”

“If you hadn’t been so stubborn about continuing your training to the end, you wouldn’t have sat next to me and fallen into a trance.”

“Oh, I see! “Buy food!”

“I’ll buy you everything you want to eat!”

I quickly left the training center with Ian.

“You starved too, right?”

“no. “I ate.”

But Ian’s stomach was growling.

She wasn’t the type of person to eat alone when I was hungry and eating breakfast. I probably stopped practicing for three days out of fear that it might disturb my trance.

“Foolish gomtaengi.”

“No. If you were truly remorseful, you wouldn’t have been caught starving. By sneaking around like this, I’m showing off how loyal a subordinate I am, right? Rather, I used it as a golden opportunity to score points.”

“It’s a fox, it’s a fox.”

“Of course, there are still many tails hidden.”

I laughed happily.

“It’s been a while since I walked with you like this.”

“I see.”

“It’s good, as expected.”

As expected, adding one word really made people feel better. I’m good too, Ian.

I went into Magachon Pungryu Bar with Ian.

“welcome! “It’s been a while since I saw you, Mr. Gakju.”

Seeing Cho Chun-bae greet me warmly reminded me of his cooking and made me even hungrier.

“Give it to me quickly!”

“I’ll run to your light attack!”

After giving the drink first, Cho Chun-bae ran to the kitchen.

We started off with a drink on an empty stomach.

“Kya! kill.”

“Ugh! It’s poisonous. “I am absolutely dying.”

After a while, the food came out and we devoured it without paying attention to anyone else.

We patted our swollen bellies and talked about martial arts over drinks. She asked me everything I was curious about, and I answered sincerely as much as I knew.

My Bicheongeombeop was at a standstill after the Ten Stars and Daeseong were broken, and I thought that it would be good if the new eye surgery I received this time would have a positive effect.

As we talked about martial arts, the topic naturally turned to Seo Dae-ryong.

“By the way, is Inspector Seo doing well?”

“I’ll be fine. “I haven’t been able to tell you that I’ve been practicing these days.”

“Everyone is busy.”

“I don’t know, but I will do well. “Work and training.”

“It’s amazing to see Inspector Seo getting along well with Mr. Doma.”

“I don’t know if you’re doing well. “I’m going to get scolded and my pillow might get wet every night.”

Ian laughed and said it was fun.

“It won’t be like that. “In secret, Mr. Thomas seems like a nice person.”

“But you can’t let down your guard. Just because he’s a good person to Inspector Seo doesn’t guarantee he’ll be a good person to you, too. The opponent is Mazon. be careful.”

“Yes, I will keep that in mind.”

“Someday, you have to win with your skills.”

For a moment, Ian was shocked.

“Me?”

Like before, people didn’t say, ‘How can I beat Mazon with my skills?’ Since I have been taught the art of flying swords, such words are disrespectful to me and my father.

“I will try my best.”

“know? Poor skills die first. “Once you start, you have to go to the end.”

“yes!”

I raised my glass and she drank with me.

“And once the Bicheon swordsmanship reaches a certain level, let’s gather the subordinates of the Gwiyeongdae in earnest. “If you get the leader level right, the rest will be easy.”

“Is there anyone you have in mind?”

I nodded honestly.

“Maybe one or two. “I’ll have to come out later and hire him.”

“Who is it?”

“If you find out now, you’ll just be surprised. “I’ll let you know when the time comes.”

“When you say that, my heart is already racing.”

“In that case, there is a good solution called alcohol, right?”

The sound of clinking glasses was as cheerful as our mood.

“I order more drinks and more snacks.”

“It’s a shame, but I think I’ll have to stop drinking today?”

Ian followed my gaze and looked down at the first floor.

Seo Dae-ryong quickly came into the bar, went up to our seat on the second floor, and reported on the new subject I would have to cook from now on.

“The leader of the Pungcheon Church has just arrived at our school.”
