Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 211

Episode 211 The embers revived by the wind (1)

Three days later.

“Eudadada!”

Seoryang’s face, after stretching, looked quite refreshed.

Yeo Sang-rin, who was sitting on the stairs and carefully cleaning pottery, said something.

“monster.”

“ok?”

“It’s a monster.”

“Why am I a monster?”

“It’s an absolute monster. “Until a few days ago, you were walking around with a limp due to severe internal trauma.”

“It did.”

“You went to Gyojujeon and slept for three days, but now you look fine.”

“is it?”

Xu Liang twirled his shoulders.

My body definitely felt better. Even while you were sleeping, demonic energy continued to circulate through your body and heal your internal injuries.

Since internal injuries heal quickly, the five organs and six organs also quickly function properly. When the five organs and six organs functioned properly, the movement of demonic energy became more smooth. And the smoother magical energy made even external injuries heal quickly.

‘But it’s still a bit sore.’

He may not have been able to treat internal injuries as well as before, but now that he uses middle and medium-sized warfare, he can quickly heal any internal injuries. However, since internal injuries are internal injuries, it is best to be careful how you move.

“I did a good job of stabbing with a body like this.”

“yes?”

“no.”

My shoulder, where Gogu had hit me, was still throbbing. The man who was using the fluffy soft sword suddenly exploded with tension, but his internal injuries were so severe that he was unable to block or dodge it.

Seo-ryang glanced at Yeo Sang-rin.

“What are you doing?”

“You clean pottery.”

“So what are you cleaning it for?”

“Why are you wiping it to polish it?”

…yes?

I somehow feel like a fool. Of course I polished it to polish it.

Seo-ryang whetted his appetite.

“Anyway, I couldn’t tell you because I was in a hurry….”

“You don’t have to apologize.”

“ok?”

“You don’t have to apologize. “Not once or twice, but now I’m used to it.”

“Once or twice?”

“Anyway.”

Xiliang cleared his throat.

If you look at his face or voice, he doesn’t seem particularly upset or anything. But is it because I still feel sorry? For some reason it was difficult to deal with her.

Yeo Sang-rin chuckled.

“Do you know that you are a really strange person?”

“who? me?”

“yes.”

“why me?”

“no. By the way, even if you’re hungry, eat later. “Because Hwa-ah is making yaksik right now.”

“Uh, so… huh?”

Xiliang narrowed his eyes.

“Hwaa?”

“why.”

“Is that what you call cherry blossoms?”

“I decided to just play older sister and younger brother.”

“I see.”

Xu Liang kept shaking his head.

“Good job. In fact, Dong-pil, crazy, and Dae-ju above are not comfortable with cherry blossoms. Not to mention me. “I wanted Cherry Blossom to have a good friend, and you made it happen.”

Yeo Sang-rin looked at Seo-ryang with strange eyes.

“Not only is he strange, but he is also an amazing person.”

“hmm?”

Growing up in the midst of conflict in the Bingung Palace, she lived a rather difficult life for her age.

The person who saved her life when she was young was her nanny, her closest friend was a maid, and her reliable bodyguard was a servant. Is that why? She realized early on that status was not a measure of a person’s nobility.

However, he knew at least how the world viewed him and what the world’s common sense was. Looking at it that way, she knew very well how her actions of becoming a sister-in-law with a maid would be viewed.

However, this strange three-year-old was ready to clap his hands, saying that everything went well.

‘It’s really strange.’

Perhaps this kind of Three Confucius is the person most suitable for the Heavenly Demon Church. In a world where people are evaluated based on their abilities rather than their status, they must have lived their lives thinking that anyone can become a strong person.

At that time, a cherry blossom came out of the kitchen.

“Phew, it’s hot. “If it’s this much, I guess… huh?”

The cherry blossoms lowered their heads.

“Confucius! “Are you awake?”

“uh? “Uh-huh.”

“Are you hungry? Please wait a minute! “I’ll prepare a meal for you right away!”

“No, I’ll just eat on my own today.”

Seoyang pointed to the kitchen with his chin.

“My meal is ready, so let’s make a quick meal and then stop by Hyeolhongak together. “I need to see Dongpil’s face.”

* * *

“The late Confucius!”

Ma Dong-pil suddenly raised his upper body.

The face of the lawmaker standing next to him distorted. I told him not to move too hard, but it seems like this man has no learning skills.

Xu Liang waved his hand.

“Lay down, man.”

“Oh no!”

“This is it! do you want to die?”

“….”

“Lie down, brat. “What are you going to do if the hard work of this council member goes to waste because of you?”

Ma Dong-pil lay down again with an awkward look on his face.

Seo-ryang asked the lawmaker.

“How is this guy’s condition?”

The lawmaker folded his back as if he was relieved.

“Because my stamina is so good, my recovery speed is quite fast. It took two months at first, but as each day passes, the demon energy becomes more powerful. “If this continues, I think I’ll be able to wake up in about 15 days.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“no. “It’s what we should do.”

“But that’s not how people feel.”

Seo-ryang took out a small pouch from his pocket and placed it in the doctor’s hand.

“I’ve never really expressed gratitude to others, so I didn’t know what to bring. “I’ll just replace it with this.”

“yes?”

“I know you’re busy, but please have a drink with your colleagues during your break. “Thank you for taking good care of this guy.”

Surprise spread across the congressman’s face. I had no idea that someone of the caliber of the Three Dukes would show such kindness.

This probably means that Ma Dong-pil is an important person to the three princes.

“Thank you.”

“I made some medicinal food for my child. Can I eat it?”

“of course. The yaksik made by the maid was no better than the yaksik made at the main house. “More sincerity must have been put into it, so it will most likely be good for the patient’s body.”

Xu Liang smiled.

It is not easy for the word sincerity to come out of someone’s mouth. Although the Heavenly Demon Church was notorious in the Central Plains, there were similar decent lawmakers in every neighborhood.

“Please make room for me.”

“Yes then.”

The congressman walked out in full stride.

Seoyang dragged a chair and sat down.

“Is it worth living?”

Ma Dong-pil answered calmly.

“of course. “It could happen any moment now.”

“You can stand up, but you can’t swing a sword.”

“….”

“Good job.”

“no. Rather, I press Confucius because of my shortcomings…”

“Don’t go anywhere and say something like that. How many people at your age do you think have reached that level in the whole world? “I just had bad luck this time.”

“….”

“And what….”

Xioliang sighed.

“If I want to apologize, I have to do it.”

“Lord Confucius!”

“That’s right. It got to this point for no reason because of me. “I have no respect for you and Aenghwa.”

The surprised cherry blossom shook its head. It was stirred so fast that it made a whistling sound.

“No, Confucius!”

“no. It wasn’t a fight that would involve you all. As a result, I was incompetent. “I will make sure nothing like this happens again in the future.”

“….”

“I really wanted to say this.”

The cherry blossoms were restless. Every time Confucius says something like that, I feel so sad and don’t know what to do.

On the other hand, Ma Dong-pil’s face was calm.

“Confucius. Do you remember what Confucius said before?”

“hmm?”

“Before going to Hyeongsan Sohyanggok, Confucius said this to me. “You too have to make a choice.”

“….”

“I answered like this. “The relationship started with an order from above, but I said I had already made a choice and that this choice would never change.”

“It did.”

“Confucius also said this. One day, there will come a time when they will use me as a horse for chess. And I responded like this. “If you want to use it as a diploma, I will gladly accept your order.”

Seo-ryang shook his head as if he could not stop him.

“You remember everything.”

“I remember everything Confucius said.”

Ma Dong-pil’s face became serious.

“You don’t need to apologize to me, and you shouldn’t. Confucius, don’t you have a dream?”

“….”

“I chose to become Confucius’ sword to make that dream come true. In that case, it is Confucius’ duty to wield that sword freely.”

“Right.”

“I will become an unbreakable sword. Just oil it once in a while. “That is enough for me.”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Your speaking skills have improved even while we haven’t seen each other.”

“thank you.”

“It’s not a compliment.”

“….”

“I’m kidding, man.”

Ma Dong-pil scratched his cheek.

Seoriang unpacked the bundle Aenghwa brought. Then an appetite-stimulating scent filled the room.

“I had a little taste and it was very good. “The liver may be a bit weak, but there will be no other meal like this for the patient.”

Xu Liang stood up.

“Please help Dongpil, the cherry blossom painter.”

“yes!”

Ma Dong-pil asked, carefully raising his upper body with support from Cherry Blossoms.

“Do you have somewhere to go?”

“okay. “I’ll stop by once in a while to make sure I recover.”

“All right. ah! And…”

“Why?”

Ma Dong-pil’s eyes deepened.

“I heard the conversation between the lawmakers. Did you save Lee Gongja’s life?”

“however?”

“Be careful.”

Xu Liang’s eyes lit up.

Ma Dong-pil, who knows his skills, tells him to be careful. This would mean that he felt something unusual.

“The people who attacked us at that time were people who were united in loyalty. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have dared to attack us, the Three Dukes’ people.”

“I guess so.”

“But looking back, I realize it wasn’t just about loyalty.”

“huh?”

“…I am sorry to say this, but it seems that there are people who have a grudge against Confucius.”

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

“A grudge?”

“yes.”

“How did you know that?”

“Because I read life in their eyes. But strictly speaking, their life wasn’t directed at us.”

“Is it directed at me?”

“I think so.”

The sense of a transcendent master is incomparable to that of a peak master. In particular, Ma Dong-pil’s senses, which have been trained together with Seo-ryang, boast a sensitivity greater than that of an equal level expert.

The will mixed with the killing energy and even the direction in which that will is heading can be read, albeit faintly.

If Ma Dong-pil speaks like this, it is probably something that should not be ignored.

“It even makes you think that the Grand Duke and the Duke of Li did not instigate them, but rather that they instigated them. “If we can’t catch them all, they will most likely approach Lee Gongja.”

“At that time, all the attackers were locked in prison?”

“May I ask how many people there were?”

“seven.”

“There were a total of twenty-five people who attacked us. And those who died by my sword are fifteen.”

“…There are three left.”

“That’s right.”

Xu Liang nodded.

“i get it. “I will investigate separately.”

“Please be careful.”

“OK. “You too, take care of yourself.”

Seoliang, who came out of the Blood Soul Pavilion, looked up at the sky.

“I keep looking at the sky these days. Seeing that blue thing doesn’t solve my problems.”

Seo-ryang’s eyes calmed down.

“…They have a grudge against me?”

The atmosphere is heating up again.
