Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 28

Episode 28. Whether it’s Gojuklim or here (3)

“Ma Dong-pil, leader of the 3rd Hobeon Court, concludes his mission report.”

“You worked hard.”

Lee Gun-seong praised Ma Dong-pil with a smiling face.

“What a hardship it has been for over eight months. “Thank you so much.”

“no. Rather, it was an honor for me to be able to serve Confucius.”

Kiyang, who was standing next to him, also smiled happily.

It was really awkward to have special feelings for a man over 30.

But what can you do? To the two, Ma Dong-pil was like a younger brother. After proudly completing a mission that would have been difficult for anyone to complete, she could not have looked so pretty.

‘Besides, I’ve gotten my life in order.’

What had happened was that the murderous spirit I had seen a few days ago disappeared as if washed away.

On the other hand, the power felt is beyond imagination.

“Was there any other reason?”

“yes?”

“My strength has increased significantly since then. “It’s still at the level of potential, but it will be a huge help to your growth in the future.”

Lee Gun-seong’s face was filled with pure admiration.

Ma Dong-pil made an awkward expression. Since there was no report on how to process and consume spirit porridge to make pure elixir, the two had no choice but to not know.

Manager-level personnel had the authority to omit unnecessary information.

At first, he wondered whether he should report this part or not, but he ended up omitting that information.

It was not because I wanted to keep it a secret, but because it was related to the martial arts of the Three Princes.

We decided that there was no need to risk information about the next religious leaders being leaked to the outside world. It may not be possible, but there are bound to be loopholes in any organization.

When it comes to matters related to life in general, the fewer people who know about these areas, the better.

“It had its own merits. “It’s all thanks to the Three Princes.”

“Thanks to the Three Princes?”

“yes. “I think it would be difficult to talk about this part because it is related to the Three Princes.”

Gunseong Lee waved his hand.

“Of course you should. If that’s the case, you’re the only one who knows. What’s important is that you completed your mission well. “Don’t worry.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

Kiyang quietly intervened.

“Anyway, senior. “Manager Sam has been through a lot, so why not give him some vacation time?”

Lee Gun-seong nodded.

“I think so too. “It would be okay to take a good rest for about a month.”

Ma Dong-pil shook his head.

“There will be a mission I can share. “I have no intention of causing trouble to others.”

“No, you should rest when you rest. Your mission this time was one that no one could share. “You deserve a break.”

“Then we will rest for three days.”

“You’re still stubborn. It’s good. I’ll get back to work after 10 days. “There are no more concessions.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Kiyang clicked his tongue.

“Others say it’s good to rest, but why do you look so dissatisfied? “Could it be that you don’t like your senior’s consideration?”

“Oh no.”

Ma Dong-pil was embarrassed and threw up his hands.

The two people burst into laughter as if seeing him like that was amusing.

Gunseong Lee stood up, shouting cheerfully.

“ruler! Let’s have a drink after a long time. “I want to hear for myself how you were doing there.”

”

why? Is there anything else to do? “Even if you do, can you endure it today?”

“sorry. “The Three Dukes asked us to have one last drink…”

Lee Gun-seong and Gi-yang looked at each other.

‘The Three Princes?’

I heard a rumor that he had become a bit evil after waking up from the demonic spell, but I thought that his evil nature had not gone anywhere.

“It looks like you and the Three Dukes have become very close.”

“You went through a lot of trouble because of my inadequate escort.”

Kiyang’s eyes sparkled.

The expressions on Ma Dong-pil’s face were gratitude and regret. It seemed like this honest junior was truly caring for the Three Dukes.

Lee Gun-seong, who was quietly looking at him, nodded willingly.

“If the Three Dukes said so, then of course it should be so. “Just wait a moment.”

After a while, he brought some tea leaves from oyster tea.

“You seem to like it so much that you can find it in that rough place. Let me bring you this. “I happened to find good quality tea leaves.”

“Ah….”

“Probably Confucius will be satisfied as well.”

Ma Dong-pil accepted the tea leaves with an awkward expression.

I couldn’t bear to tell that proud face that Confucius didn’t just enjoy it, he hated it.

“Now, let’s go. And I also told you that if you find good tea leaves in the future, I will give them to you, hehe.”

Ma Dong-pil deeply apologized to Lee Gun-seong and carefully placed the tea leaves in his arms.

‘I’m sorry, Captain.’

These tea leaves… I have to use them.

* * *

“Whoa.”

A puff of smoke escaped through the window.

Shinhoe said as if he was worried.

“Confucius.”

“hmm?”

“I’m sorry to say this….”

“What? say it.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to stop burning tobacco for your health?”

Hong Wei-moon laughed and shook off the gombangdae.

“It’s been a bit frequent lately, hasn’t it?”

“Even if you can drive out Takgi with your internal strength, it still won’t be good for your body.”

“When it’s time to quit, I’ll quit on my own. “I appreciate your concerns.”

“…yes.”

Hong Wi-moon sucked the stick again. Thick smoke filled the room.

After hesitating for a moment, Shinhoe opened his mouth.

“Confucius.”

“say.”

“May I ask why you bitten ‘them’ again?”

Hong Yu-wen looked at the window.

The sky, which had been blue without a single cloud, was suddenly turning red with the setting sun.

He said while savoring the dreamy sight of the sunset beyond the hazy smoke.

“Shinhoe.”

“Yes, Confucius.”

“He’s changed a lot.”

Shinhoe tilted his head. This is because the answer to the question was somewhat unexpected.

“My body has improved tremendously.”

“….”

“I feel like I’ve grown taller and my bones have become stronger than before. “I don’t know what happened in Gojuklim, but it seemed like I had regained my martial arts skills from before.”

“…!”

“I’m not curious about the method. Because it didn’t change the fact that he was revived. The problem is….”

Hong Wi-moon said, shaking off the gombangdae.

“It has become ambiguous.”

“….”

“It was definitely the same guy… but it felt like a different person.”

It is a feeling that cannot be explained with logic. And what brought out this unpleasant feeling was the look Seo-ryang showed at the time.

The look in your eyes as if you knew everything.

I was fascinated by his unique eyes, which were a mixture of Mine’s unique ferocity, phantom-like transparency, and emotionless doll-like indifference.

Hong Wei-wen turned his head and said.

“Actually, it doesn’t really matter how strong he has become.”

lie.

Shinhoe knew. What I just said was not Confucius’s sincerity.

But he didn’t show it. This is because I also realized that Hong Yu-wen was quite confused.

“The problem is, you don’t know how they’ll react when you send ‘them’ in.”

Shinhoe shook his head.

“Didn’t you already know how the three princes would react and how you would respond?”

“Okay, until yesterday.”

“….”

“But today is different. “I’m not sure what kind of reaction I’m going to get from him.”

Until now, Confucius was a person who proved his insight with results. Of course, it will be right this time too.

But I was curious. Why did Confucius come to think like that?

Shinhoe, who was quietly looking at him, lowered his head.

“The backlash from ‘them’ is expected to be somewhat strong. “How should I handle it?”

“Appease it with a reasonable amount of money. Because they are as obsessed with money as they are with resentment. “There’s no need to worry.”

“As Confucius said, it’s a bit difficult to give money to people who don’t need to worry about it…” “

If it was something you needed to care about, you would have put something more on top of the money.”

“….”

“These are the people who start foaming at the mere mention of the Chinese characters of Xiliang. There may be some use for it at some point, but in the end, that’s all it is. “If you really want to, take him to a good place to relieve his mood.”

“All right.”

I don’t know if it will be resolved to that extent. After waiting for a few days with the decision to consult with the gods, he received orders and returned just before the Three Dukes came in. I couldn’t even imagine how big the anger and despair would be.

Phew!

A large amount of smoke escaped through the window.

“And I’ll send you a letter saying I’ll treat you to dinner tomorrow.”

“yes? “To whom…?”

“Wonju of Hwanhee (????).”

“…!”

Shinhoe’s face hardened.

“Confucius, the Hwanhee Wonju is dangerous….”

“Shinhoe.”

“….”

“….”

“…I follow your orders.”

As Shinhoe bowed deeply and left the room, Hong Wimoon threw the gombangdae carelessly.

A cold murderous intent hovered over his stern face, which had lost the easy-going smile he always wore.

“If the wildcat turns into a poisonous snake, I guess I’ll have to change my bowstring too.”

* * *

“Are you here?”

“Yes, Confucius.”

“Bitch, leave early. I thought you were dying because you were hungry. “Sit down.”

“sorry.”

Ma Dong-pil, who hastily apologized, raised his bowed head and looked ahead.

A table covered with a sumptuous feast and flowers and cherry blossoms sitting on either side of it.

In particular, Cherry Blossom’s face was yellow. It was clear that he had been pondering intensely whether he could dare to have a double bed with Confucius.

‘It’s worth it.’

Among all the Protestant demons, I had never seen anyone as disrespectful of formalities as Samgongja. Wasn’t the first title he called himself ‘Mr. Ma’?

Seeing as he was not at all embarrassed by this sight, he seemed to have gotten quite used to it.

“Aren’t you sitting down? “Don’t you want to eat it?”

“Oh no!”

Ma Dong-pil quickly sat down and looked at Seo-ryang.

Seo-ryang already had chopsticks in his hand.

“Let’s have a taste first.”

After chewing only animal meat for over eight months, I felt like my eyes were drawn to the luxurious scent of food. Honestly, it was hard to wait even with my strong loyalty to Ma Dong-pil.

Soon the three people started eating.

Seoliang was combative from the beginning, and Ma Dong-pil started in a formal manner, but the pace gradually picked up.

They were big men, it was the first high-quality food they had had in a long time, and crucially, they hadn’t eaten anything all day. The two men emptied their plates as if they were possessed.

Aenghwa looked at the two people and cracked up. I was so hungry and so uncomfortable that I couldn’t eat any food.

“Huh! This is it! “Isn’t this how people live, Dongpil?”

“This is a great dish, Confucius.”

“But this is all good, but don’t you think the quantity will be a bit lacking?”

“Maybe so.”

The cherry blossom flower burst into laughter. I made enough food for three or four people, but it wasn’t enough. I felt dizzy from the two people’s incredible appetite.

She stood up hesitantly.

“I will bring more.”

“uh? No, what… do you want to do that?”

“yes!”

“thank you.”

The whirlwind meal continued for half a hour.

Seoliang patted his stomach with satisfaction, and Ma Dongpil whetted his appetite. Aenghwaman, who had been busy bringing food and clearing plates, was finally eating somen as if she had relaxed.

“I’m full, so I’ll have a drink.”

Pong!

Xi Liang opened the Six Thousand Profound Pillars.

At that moment, Ma Dong-pil’s eyes became bright. Aenghwa took a quick look and ate somen while slurping it down again.

“receive.”

“I am honored.”

“Damn.”

A drink that is poured quickly. The fragrant scent spread throughout the room.

Cherry blossoms also opened their eyes wide, and even the sleeping fox cub lying on the bed twitched its nose. The scent was so artistic that even inexperienced drinkers and animals reacted to it.

“You’ve had a hard time.”

“no. “It was an honor to be able to serve Confucius.”

“You mean baby.”

“It’s true.”

“Thank you for coming.”

The two people emptied their drinks.

Seo-ryang’s face was filled with admiration, and Ma Dong-pil looked like he was about to faint. Neither of them could come to their senses from the unimaginable taste of Six Thousand Heart Juice.

“It’s great. hey! By the way, what are you going to do next? Who are you going to protect again?”

“….”

“mind!”

“omg! Ah yes! “Did you call me, Confucius?”

“This is so crazy. “Is it that good?”

“of course!”

“It seemed like that. “It looked like it wouldn’t hurt even if I got stabbed.”

“Ah… But what did you ask me…?”

“done. “Take another drink.”

“yep!”

The two of them instantly moved the six thousand heart pillars.

Ma Dong-pil looked at the empty bottle and empty glass with empty eyes. If Confucius wasn’t there, they would have taken turns licking each other.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Chrysanthemum, can you bring me a few bottles of alcohol? “It doesn’t matter what the master or servant is.”

“yes!”

The cherry blossoms moved around.

Seo-ryang tapped Ma Dong-pil on the shoulder.

“Wake. “Then my eyeballs fall out.”

“Oh yeah.”

“Today you’re going to drink until your tongue spins? “Let’s crawl on all fours.”

“It is an honor, Confucius.”

“You are truly honored in so many ways. “People are so brilliant.”

Ma Dong-pil made an awkward expression.

“Then let’s ask something before the drinks come. “I don’t think I can ask if my tongue gets twisted.”

“Please ask.”

Xiliang’s eyes lit up.

“Where should I go to get the school organization chart and person relationship chart? Or, who should I meet?”
