Episode 129 The Demon Hand of Greed (3)

“Wait a minute!”

Wei Hongryeon was embarrassed and stuttered.

“The temporary inspection is over?”

“okay.”

“You just looked at a few pages, right?”

These were words that represented everyone’s feelings. There was no one here who was embarrassed except for Seo-ryang and Ma Dong-pil.

Xu Liang shook his head.

“I took out a few unspecified pages and looked at them. At least the documents I looked at weren’t false. “I also completed simple cross-validation.”

“There may be false documents mixed in! Look at that! “There are thousands of them!”

Zhong Lishan wanted to say that it was all a real ledger, but he could not easily say it. He too was curious.

“If I had tried to write something false, I would have changed the whole thing.”

“…Yes, but. No, and inspection doesn’t mean checking whether the ledger is real or false, right?”

That is correct. An auditor is not a person who simply determines false ledgers, but a person who audits how the internal organization is running as a whole.

In the first place, it makes no sense to conduct an inspection only with ledgers. It is right to go into that organization and check everything about how the work is going.

Of course, that is also at the discretion of the inspector general.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Is it really necessary to live so tightly?”

He looked at Zhongli Mountain.

Zhong Lishan’s dumbfounded expression was truly overwhelming. A person who would not even raise an eyebrow even if lightning struck right in front of him had a more human expression than anyone else.

“It looks like you’re not ready to talk yet.”

“….”

“Would you like me to wait a little longer?”

“…no.”

“Then let’s get started right away.”

“Previously.”

Zhong Lishan asked in an effortlessly calm voice.

“Is the inspection really over like this?”

“That’s right.”

“You are the inspector.”

“I know.”

“No, I don’t think I know. “Do you know that calling me here itself was an inappropriate action for an inspector?”

Wei Hongryun’s eyebrows twitched. That’s because I didn’t like the idea of bringing up a story that had already ended.

However, Zhonglisan did not intend to vent about courtesy issues or discomfort.

“If you called me here, I should at least conduct a brief but proper inspection. “But I don’t understand why you would make a decision based on just a few documents.”

“Do I really need to make you understand? In any case, if the decision was made to be suitable, wouldn’t it be a good thing for you?”

“That’s true.”

“What’s the problem?”

Zhong Lishan frowned.

“Are you really saying this is the end?”

“I don’t know how many times I’ll be asked, but this is really the end.”

“….”

“I just told you, right? Let’s have a constructive conversation. “Once that conversation is concluded, we will make a decision of suitability.”

“If this was going to happen, did you really need to call me?”

“The person you are talking to must be the head of the family. “That’s why I called you.”

Anyway, it doesn’t mean I called you without a reason.

Zhonglisan, who was looking at Xioliang, nodded.

“Okay, let’s listen. “I will tell you in advance, if it is for a trivial reason, you will have to pay a high price.”

“Anyway.”

Saaaaagh.

The sea kings once again released heavy energy waves.

It doesn’t matter even if the opponent is an inspector general. They couldn’t help but get angry at those who were rude to the head of the Geogyeong family, as they were an organization that existed solely for the benefit of the head of the family.

Xu Liang smiled.

“They are loyal subordinates.”

Zhong Lishan raised his hand. Then the waves of the sea kings calmed down again.

“He’s loyal, but sometimes he makes mistakes. “If I offended you, I apologize on your behalf.”

I have a neat personality that doesn’t need to measure things. Even if you don’t like the other person, if you make a mistake, admit it plainly. As a military officer and the head of an organization, he could be said to have exemplary character.

Xu Liang nodded.

“I don’t care.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

“Now then, shall we start talking?”

“Please speak.”

“Let’s get the trivial details out of the way and get to the point. Please lend a hand for our school.”

What does this mean out of the blue?

Wei Hongryeon tilted her head. Ma Dong-pil had a calm expression, but he also could not hide a hint of doubt.

“What do you mean, ask me to lend you a hand?”

“There is one place we can destroy properly, but we don’t have enough people. “The members there all have terrible tempers, so I don’t think they will obey.”

“Smashed?”

Everyone present froze at Seoryang’s next words.

“I am going to escort the Demon King’s family to the gate.”

* * *

The place where Mudam left.

Ho Yaoseong’s eyes were particularly serious as he looked at the place where only empty teacups were placed.

“You are subject to special escort… in these times?”

The Protectorate Court was the only organization that the military department could not inspect.

Of course, the defense court also cannot intervene in the military department. No, no organization on campus can touch the military department. That is why the head of the military department, the Commander-in-Chief, is called a person with power above all people.

But it was the same in the defense court.

The Protectorate is an organization that is not involved in internal affairs, but in some cases, it can become the highest organization in Protestantism.

Because they simply follow the orders of their religious leader? Not like that.

‘Lee Gun-seong, the head of the defense court, is currently on campus. But you sent a trillion?’

I don’t think Mudam lied. He wasn’t that kind of person to begin with.

However, there is no way that a leader would not have been assigned to escort a special escort.

“You sent monsters.”

Ho Yo-seong sighed without realizing it.

“Among them, Il Jo… is he really that important?”

The reason why the Protectorate can become the most powerful organization in Protestantism.

This is because the majority of retired old demons from previous generations are gathered in the protection court. Among them are the leaders of the previous generation’s defense court, the previous generation’s magic commanders, and even retired magicians.

So, not just anyone can become the Lord of the Protectorate. It must be based on the leadership ability to lead those fearsome monsters, powerful martial arts skills, and absolute loyalty to Shingyo.

Of course, retirement does not mean that all mines become members of the Protectorate Court. However, the majority of horsemen only withdraw from active duty after retirement and want to belong to the defense court.

This is because they want to remain as the last bulwark to protect Protestantism.

“This is a special escort in a complicated situation. “My uniform was ruined.”

On one side, tribes trying to devour the Chilga showed movement, and on the other side, a special guard unknown to the general military appeared.

Hu Yaosheng shook his head.

‘It’s not an area you can understand by worrying about it. No, you can find out if you dig into it, but it’s not necessary.’

Military people want to have all information in their hands. The reason is because you don’t know where the variable will pop out.

So I wanted to know who the special escort was.

At the same time, I was wary of my own feelings.

‘There’s something more important than satisfying curiosity. ‘This is the line I have drawn.’

If you delve into it, Mudam will definitely find out. And at that moment, Mudam’s trust in himself will stop.

do not do that.

It’s okay for other leaders to be at odds with each other, but if the General Military and the Lord of the Guardians are at odds, the new religion becomes creaky. The religious leader’s two favorite subjects may compete, but they must not distrust each other.

“I guess I’ll try and get you a cup of tea later and ask you to tell me. Well, it doesn’t matter because you’ll find out later…”

Ho Yo-seong looked at the window.

“I hope our inspector is doing well.”

Believe.

Rather than trusting a person, Seo-ryang believes in the abilities and senses he has shown.

“It’s about time we got a call.”

I think we will be able to wisely overcome the threat of Jeoksaga. I think I will be able to somehow finish even Geogyeongga, which is easier in some ways and much more difficult in other ways.

But what about Tuwang’s family?

Although they are the lowest in rank among the Seven Families, will they be able to deal with the Tuwang Maga, who are armed with a fearsome fighting spirit and unwavering stubbornness, despite their lack of power?

Moreover, it is not a simple inspection, but an order to bring out Bongmun.

‘Master.’

Hu Yaosheng closed his eyes.

‘The leader… is a truly scary person.’

By sending him to remove the thorn stuck between his teeth, he confirms the three princes’ abilities and loyalty.

My favorite student recently, but one I don’t trust. Perhaps the religious leader’s desire to test the Three Confucius is greater than the purpose of consolidating the power of the Protestant religion.

‘No, this might be my imagination too.’

A wise man of magic who sees through everything in the world.

The only person he couldn’t look into was the owner he served.

“But still…”

Ho Yo-seong opened his eyes again and smiled.

“Thanks to the Three Princes, I feel better these days.”

* * *

“What did you just say?”

Seo-ryang said as if he wanted to have a drink this evening.

“They said they were going to send Tuwangmaga to the funeral.”

“Bongmun?!”

“That’s right.”

Zhonglisan’s eyes shook.

“Did you say you would imprison one of the seven families?”

“Is there a problem?”

Is there a problem?

If you think it doesn’t exist, I think that’s more of a problem. The Tuwangmaga, like the other Seven Families, was a family of loyalists who worked for the Heavenly Demon Church for hundreds of years.

“What is the reason?”

“well? “I just want to faithfully carry out orders from above.”

“Nonsense! It’s not just any other place, it’s one of the Seven Families! “There’s no way you wouldn’t have explained the reason to the inspector if you asked him to interrogate a place like that instead of inspecting it, right?”

“Do you really think so?”

“…what?”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“The head of the Jeoksa family said the same thing, but the head of the family said the same thing.”

“What do you mean?”

“I understand that they are curious as to why, but they are very frustrated and disappointed that we don’t have to explain it to them.”

“Isn’t it obvious?!”

“Why is that natural?”

“What?!”

“Why do you have to explain why you can just do as you’re told? “If I don’t explain why, are you going to refuse the Protestant Church’s orders?”

Zhong Lishan felt speechless.

“Those who carry out the orders of the religious leader can be magnanimous and explain the reasons at their own discretion. However, there is no obligation to explain. The reason is because the Seven Families are an affiliated organization of Shingyo.”

“….”

“Now that the story is here, I’m actually curious. “What on earth does the head of the family think of Protestantism?”

“That’s…”

“Do you think that our school is also an alliance like the Uicheon Alliance of the martial arts sect?”

Zhong Lishan was taken aback. To the extent that he even stutters, which is uncharacteristic of him.

“Isn’t that true?”

“I don’t know if you know, but the Uicheon Alliance can issue an order called Uicheon Order to its affiliated sect or family. That’s why political faction members also desperately hope that the leader will be chosen from within the organization.”

Seoliang tilted his head.

“But how can the head of the family show dissatisfaction that even the affiliated organizations of the Uicheon Alliance do not reveal? “Or…”

“….”

“Are you harboring any remorse?”

The prayers of Zhonglisan rose sharply.

That wasn’t all. The sea kings lined up behind him also gave off fierce energy waves.

It was then.

Flash! Crying!!

A sword, like a beam of light, created a two-length sword mark in front of the place where the throne of the sea is lined up.

Before he knew it, Seo-ryang had drawn the dragon sword and spoke coldly.

“The reason I tolerated your arrogance was because I thought about the dignity of the head of the family. But you shouldn’t take my patience for granted.”

“…!”

“If you act presumptuously again, I will punish you immediately.”

thud!

Seoliang, who planted the Yongrin sword in the ground and placed both hands on it, glared at Zhongrisan.

“Good. “I’m on my way to pay homage to a family belonging to the same Seven Houses. I think I can roughly infer how your family is feeling through this.”

“….”

“Can you lend me a hand? Or do you want to go back like this?”

Seo-ryang’s smile deepened.

“Is your family still a Protestant family? Or is it a family with rebellious intentions?”
