Episode 50 The gates of hell open (4)
Crash!
A party member opened the door and came in in a huff.
“Four Deputy Lords!”
Geum Seong-ju, a middle-aged man, frowned.
“What kind of rudeness is this? It was said that it was a place to serve a precious person. “I told you to handle most things among yourselves.”
“We’re in big trouble!”
“What on earth is going on that you’re making such a fuss about?”
“There is an uproar in the camp of the cavalry! It is said that the Three Princes suddenly broke in and turned the unit into a mess!”
Hong Yuwen’s eyes sparkled.
Geumseongju got up from his seat without me realizing it.
“Jinma’s camp? “Did you mean that the three princes caused an uproar in the unit’s quarters?”
“That’s right!”
“Where is the information from?”
“This is information delivered directly by the Jinma Troops!”
Geumseongju’s gaze turned to Hongyumun.
Hong Yuwen nodded.
“You’re going to have an accident.”
“I guess I should try moving, right?”
What I meant was whether the ‘goal’ I mentioned earlier was correct.
Hong Yuwen smiled and said.
“The Vice Lord is one of the ten Vice Lords of the Penal Court. If the policy of the penal school is clear, we cannot just sit back and watch when a dispute breaks out on campus. “I know that it is right for you to do what you want.”
Geumseongju said to the party members.
“Send out the Black Bird Guards! Find out the current location of the Three Dukes!”
“Are you talking about the Black Tide?”
“okay. Let’s catch ‘all’ mines involved in the conflict! There should be no exceptions to status!”
Tension appeared on the faces of the party members as the command implied that even the Three Dukes should be dragged to the penal court.
“I follow your orders!”
The party member left and Geumseongju smiled.
“I was wondering if I should prepare for an unexpected situation, but it seems like things will become quite easy.”
“okay.”
However, contrary to his words, Hong Yu-wen’s face was very serious. This is because the Seo-ryang I have seen so far is by no means a soft guy.
“It should get easier.”
* * *
Sigh!
“Kwaaaa…Aak?”
Wei Hongryeon slowly opened her eyes.
Seolyang was twitching his fingers with a perplexed expression. Looking at the momentum with which it was running, it seemed like I was going to beat it to death, but in the end, it only hit me once.
“I tried to beat them all the time, but I couldn’t even do that because they were all dying.”
“to?”
“What is it? reel? “Look at this?”
Crumbling. Crumbling.
The energy leaking out of Wei Hongryun’s body was dangerous to anyone who could see it. The dense magical energy that could never come out of a body that had suffered severe internal trauma seemed as if it would explode at any moment.
Xiliang clicked his tongue.
“Do well, do well. “This is why you get called crazy.”
“yes?”
He placed his hand on Wei Hongryun’s forehead.
Wei Hongryun flinched.
“Relax.”
Wooooow!
At that moment, Xiliang’s true energy poured into Wei Hongryun’s upper chamber.
Wei Hongryun’s mouth opened wide.
Forcibly inserts demonic energy through the upper chamber. It was a left-handed method that no one could easily attempt and was reluctant to try even if it were possible.
‘no! wait for a sec! ‘Hey you crazy idiot!’
I wanted to force my head to turn, but strangely I couldn’t lift a finger. It was as if I had been touched by demonic blood.
But surprisingly.
“…Eh?”
Xu Liang shook his hands and grumbled.
“You really put a lot of effort into it.”
“yes?”
“How long are you going to be dumbfounded, man! Go to Nooktaegi right now and take care of yourself! “Wow, I’m going to trust this troublemaker and do something.”
Wei Hongryun’s eyes wavered.
‘what?!’
Tsutsutsutsu.
Cheonghyeon Magong’s rampaging demon energy calmed down and the open expedition guard was restored to its original state. The soaring madness and even the intense anger had completely subsided.
what? What happened?
While she was dumbfounded with her mouth open, Seoryang looked at Ma Dong-pil.
“Are you okay?”
“yes?”
“Are you okay, man?”
“It’s okay.”
Seo-ryang’s eyebrows furrowed.
Ma Dong-pil’s condition was not at a level that could be said to be okay. There were no serious injuries, but there were no minor injuries either. There were dozens of such wounds.
‘If I hadn’t done the bloodletting at the right time, I would have fallen into a near-death state from excessive bleeding.’
He turned his head and looked at the Jin Horse Guards.
flinch!
All of the approximately 50 Jinma troopers were stiff from tension.
“Dongpil.”
“Yes, Confucius.”
“Did you refrain from smoking?”
“…That’s right.”
“why? “Looking at the wounds, it looks like those bastards attacked without hesitation.”
“They are horsemen from Jinma University. “The three leaders of the Protectorate are not the ones to point a sword at.”
Seo-ryang watched Ma Dong-pil with indifferent eyes.
Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.
The situation was different from when Wei Hongryun was angry.
Since the relationships are different and the weight of words is different, the attitude toward accepting them is also bound to be different. No matter how stubborn he was, he couldn’t help but notice.
At that time, Seo-ryang’s voice pierced my ears.
“Every time I see him, there’s something unexpected about him.”
“…yes?”
“Smart people don’t need to be smart, and it’s hard for smart people to be smart. “But you’re not a person who has no brains about stubborn topics.”
“….”
“Beliefs and stubbornness are different. Beliefs can end up causing harm to an individual, but stubbornness causes harm to others as well. If I had come later, you wouldn’t have been safe. Do you admit it?”
“…That’s right.”
“That crazy bastard almost died because of you. yes?”
In fact, if Wei Hongryeon hadn’t stepped in and caused a mess, none of this would have happened.
However, Ma Dong-pil was not a person who passed the blame on to others. No, my head didn’t even turn in that direction to begin with.
It’s just that this situation has become complicated because of him. That alone was enough reason for reflection.
“It’s my negligence.”
“okay. If only I knew….”
“I know it’s unfair, but if the same situation arises in the future, I will act according to my beliefs.”
Seo-ryang’s eyes widened.
“Even though you admit that it’s stubbornness?”
“As a stubborn person, I cannot point a knife at a fellow believer even if it means dying. Of course…”
Ma Dong-pil smiled.
“On the premise that the other person is not a criminal deserving of death.”
“…Hoo.”
“The reflection is sincere. However, I also need time to reflect on what is right. “If you pretend to agree and say you understand something even though you have not accepted it deeply in your heart, you would be lying to Confucius.”
Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.
“Please understand the sincerity of these beliefs.”
That’s what it means to be a disciple of a religious leader. Nevertheless, the reason why Ma Dong-pil dares to show his true feelings is probably because he shared such a deep affection with Seo-ryang.
Xu Liang chuckled.
“Well, whatever that is.”
Seo-ryang looked back at the Jinma troopers again and muttered softly.
“What should I do with that guy?”
It wasn’t ‘those guys’. He had in mind one Song Gyeong, not the members of the Jinma Brigade.
Xiliang walked towards the Jinma troopers.
A look of bewilderment appeared on the faces of the Jinma troopers. Ma Dong-pil called this young man ‘Confucius.’ If so, it must have been one of the sect’s disciples, but I wasn’t sure.
In any case, their leader was Song Gyeong. The Jinma troopers spread out widely and prepared for Xiliang’s approach.
At that time, intense magical energy surged from Ma Dong-pil’s body.
Cheeeeeek!
Demon energy of burning anger. It was a boiling, intense energy that even seemed alive.
“How dare you draw your sword and aim at it! “Why can’t we pay homage to the Three Dukes right away!!”
A voice that resonates loudly.
The faces of the Jinma troopers turned pale. Just as I thought, the person I was dealing with was actually a disciple of the religious leader.
At that time, a suppressed voice came out of Song Kyung’s mouth.
“Prove it…try it.”
“What?”
“I said he was the Three Dukes, but who knows if he is really the Three Dukes.”
Ma Dong-pil’s eyes trembled. I can forgive you for swinging a spear knife at yourself, but it was difficult to tolerate saying something like that in front of Confucius.
“dare…!”
Song Kyung shouted.
“How dare you speak so carelessly! I am the Lord of Jinma! “It’s not a name that a leader of the Protectorate can take lightly!”
It was literally like the roar of an animal.
In fact, Song Kyung was no different from being anxious.
He also knew the situation, but he couldn’t not know that the opponent was a third-party player. Even if it were a private affair, what kind of person would impersonate the Three Confucius within the Protestant Church?
‘Damn it!’
But he had no choice but to act like a fool. It was because he knew what Hong Wi-moon wanted.
In addition, the Three Dukes seemed to have a close relationship with Wei Hongryeon. The fact that he calmed down the rampaging Wei Hongryeon proved this.
The anger toward Wei Hongryeon also transfers to the three princes, Seoliang.
Whatever the reason, the boatman would probably look after his back, and more than anything, his pride was too damaged to just bow his head.
Yes. Actually, the other reasons didn’t matter.
In the end, his pride made him more excited than necessary and prevented him from following the line.
“What are you doing?! “Let’s not put those arrogant bastards down right now!”
“Can you prove it?”
“…?”
Xu Liang smiled.
It was a cold smile that showed an extreme temperature difference from the smile he showed to Ma Dong-pil.
“Is it okay if I prove that I am the third gongja?”
“…!”
“okay. Other than that, it’s correct. When did you think that I was a Three Confucius? If this is blackmail, it would be bowing down to a stern man, and if it were to be found out later, it would be a very shameful thing for Mine, who lives off of his pride.”
“Well…”
“But I don’t have any other way to prove that I am a third gong.”
It was then.
From that moment on, the atmosphere in Xiliang began to change.
Pusssss.
The reddish demonic energy spreading from beneath my feet encroached upon the earth.
Grumble. Rumbling.
Even without that, it seemed like thunder and lightning were raging in the dark sky.
Kugoogung!
The rusty iron gate, as huge as Mount Tai, seemed to be slowly opening.
Clap! Clap!
A door that is tied to a huge chain and cannot be opened even a few inches.
As the level of magic is still not high, the old gates of hell, which are chained and rust-free, are only stopped at that level.
But that was enough.
Opening the door that much was enough to show the demons here what a real demon is.
Flash!
Song Kyung’s mouth dropped open.
The eyes of the Jinma troopers became hazy, and Ma Dong-pil lowered his head without realizing it. Wei Hongryun, who felt an unusual wave of demonic energy, was startled and froze.
Grumble!
A brilliantly burning red magic energy. An ominous flow of blood-red air.
The true opening of the Dark Realm Demonic Gong’s Underground Jade Demon Gate Sect revealed its viciousness to the world for the first time.
thud!
Even though I only moved one step, it felt like a giant was moving.
Xiliang’s mouth opened.
“Say it again.”
hook.
A faint red mist seemed to spread along with his exhaled breath.
“Who am I?”
Wow! Woooooo!
A distant hill that cannot be seen from here.
There, a fox radiating multi-colored brilliance howled fiercely.
The magical golden brilliance that suddenly appeared in the red-stained eyes of Seoryang repeatedly flickered.
“Speak! “Who am I!”
Flash!
“Kuweeeek!”
All fifty soldiers of the Jinma Brigade fell down, spewing out blood.
Even though it wasn’t specifically attacked, it vomited blood and fainted. It was a moment when the real demon’s energy wave bursting out in front of my eyes overwhelmed everyone.
Grumbling.
Bloody tears flowed from Song Kyung’s eyes.
Song-kyung opens her mouth and just stares blankly at Seo-ryang.
Crump! Crump!
There was no way to know how the bones were put together. After adjusting the misaligned leg bone with magic energy, he staggered and walked in front of Seoryang.
And then he knelt down.
“…Please forgive me.”
“That’s not the answer I’m looking for. Just answer my question.”
Xu Liang growled softly.
“Who am I?”
“Ugh.”
“I asked who it was!”
Song Kyung closed her eyes tightly.
“You are the Three Princes!”
Phew! Blood burst out from the hole with a sound. The storm of demonic energy pouring down like sunlight was creating terrifying pressure.
“You are clearly the Three Princes! “You are a noble person from our school!”
“….”
“The little man was arrogant and made a mistake! Please forgive me with your generous generosity!”
A satisfied smile appeared on Seo-ryang’s lips.
“It means that you recognize me as the Three Confucius.”
“That’s right! “Of course!”
“How should I deal with your mistake of asking me to prove it to you?”
“…please kill me.”
“….”
“Please kill me!”
It seemed like he didn’t even know what he was talking about. Song Gyeong’s face, which was screaming so hard that she was vomiting blood, was already as pale as a corpse.
hook.
At that time, Seoyang knelt down on one knee.
Two people making eye contact.
For a moment, Song Kyung was so shocked that her mind felt like it was going to fly away.
The temptation of golden magical eyes that makes you want to turn your head, but you can’t.
“I won’t kill you.”
“iced coffee!”
“Instead of not killing.”
Xu Liang grinned. It was a smile with particularly prominent fangs.
“Let’s make a play with me.”
“Yes yes?!”
“….”
“Give me your orders!”
Seo-ryang muttered softly in his ear. No one could hear what he was whispering to Song-gyeong.
After a while.
“Stop!”
A group of people dressed in black stormed in from afar.
“oh? “You guys came at the right time.”
If you hadn’t come, I would have tried to go find you.
Seoliang rose up easily, smiled brightly, and raised both hands.
“surrender.”
“…?”
“Do whatever you want.”
