Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 80

Episode 80 Futility (5)

“I don’t know how this happened.”

Ma Dong-pil’s face was one of confusion itself.

Juhwa shook his head.

“We’ll find out why later. “I think it would be best to take a break for now.”

Ma Dong-pil nodded. In fact, even if I wanted to find out the reason, there was no immediate way to find out.

“How are you feeling?”

“are you okay.”

It definitely seemed to be getting better. The face is full of color and the movements of the limbs are very natural.

However, the swelling on my face has not gone down yet. No matter how great the magic skill was, it was not a wound that could be healed in less than half a day.

“When do you plan to leave?”

“When Confucius wakes up.”

yes.

Ma Dong-pil looked at the carriage in the rear. Confucius was currently on the move after taking some magical medicine.

‘Whew.’

Truly, this operation was a shameless affair. If Confucius had known that things would be such a mess, he would have given up on protecting Juhwa and run.

‘But…’

As expected, I can’t help but express my admiration.

All the demons, led by myself, looked at the traces of the fierce battle on the hill.

And I was shocked. This was because I knew that the traces carved all over the hill were traces that could only be made by using high-level martial arts skills.

This is a martial skill that combat unit commanders in the civil war could not even dream of.

No, it was questionable how many demons across all organizations within the civil war would be able to survive such a fierce battle.

‘Confucius, you can’t believe it…’

Ma Dong-pil’s face flushed.

‘Have you already ascended to that area?’

Transcendence.

It may be easy to say, but the status of those who are called transcendent experts is enormous.

Even if a talented warrior trained at the highest level of martial arts every single day for decades, it was a realm of transcendence that could not be reached without luck.

The very fact that it has transcended the peak in the first place proves the difficulty of this level. The climax means reaching the end, but doesn’t it mean that even the end has been transcended?

‘Considering Confucius’s

age, this…’ Seoliang is now around twenty-five.

You reached that level in your mid-twenties? It was not an area that could be explained with common sense.

‘I’m jealous.’

Ma Dong-pil’s fist gained strength.

‘I want to follow along.’

There was no jealousy or anything like that. He wasn’t someone to be jealous of, and he didn’t have a personality that made you feel that way.

However, I was endlessly jealous.

And I wanted to follow along. Even if I couldn’t catch up, I wanted to at least reach a place where I could see the back of Seoryang.

“I don’t know much about that relationship.”

Ma Dong-pil, startled by the sudden voice, looked at Juhwa.

Juhwa said with his characteristic expressionless face.

“It looks like the face of a man looking at the woman he loves.”

“What do you mean?”

“Weren’t you looking at Confucius?”

Ma Dong-pil nodded.

“That’s right.”

“….”

“…It’s not like that.”

“yes.”

“Don’t misunderstand. I…”

“I don’t misunderstand. “I’m just saying that.”

“….”

“It looks like you have a close relationship with Confucius.”

“There’s no need to even call it a friendship. “I just worked hard for Confucius, and Confucius evaluated me undeservedly favorably.”

Juhwa shook his head.

“No matter what, the relationship between you two seems special.”

“It’s not even possible. If I say that, I feel very sorry for Confucius. “I am just a sword and a shield.”

A person who is consistently hard and firm.

Juhwa followed Ma Dongpil’s gaze and turned his head towards the carriage.

“What kind of person are you?”

“What do you mean?”

“Confucius.”

“You cannot define a person in a few words. Especially if you are such an amazing person.”

Juhwa, who was quietly looking at the carriage, opened her mouth. For some reason, I thought that after I woke up from silence, I ended up talking a lot.

“Confucius healed my body.”

It was not said that there was any kind of transaction. This was because I thought that Ma Dong-pil might know the inside story, and even if he did, it would not be something he would say.

“My body was a mess from the poisonous fire. “He brought my body back to normal in less than 15 days.”

“I see.”

“It doesn’t end there. “While I was coming here, I was able to restore my martial arts skills.”

“…!”

“Don’t misunderstand, it’s not my full ability. “It would have been absolutely impossible without Confucius’ help.”

“Hmm…”

“You also saw Captain Sam, right? “The sight of Confucius slaying those monsters.”

“…Of course.”

Even now, when I think of that time, my heart aches.

At the same time, it also got hot.

It was truly touching to see Confucius appear like a savior at a desperate moment and sweep away the wolves with his fearsome martial arts skills.

Those who have not experienced that relief will not know. The wind called hope that blew in a moment of despair threw an exhilarating spark into everyone’s hearts.

“I’ve seen martial arts skills greater than that. But I have never seen a martial arts technique more magical than that.”

Ma Dong-pil shook his head.

“No matter what impression you get, it would be rude to judge Confucius one way or another.”

“i know. I know, but….”

“….”

“I’m jealous.”

“What do you mean, I’m jealous?”

“no.”

Ma Dong-pil, who was looking at her blankly, soon turned his head. I didn’t want to force a conversation with someone who didn’t want to talk.

A moment of silence.

It was the coin that broke the silence.

“When do you think you’ll wake up?”

“You mean Confucius?”

“yes.”

“Well, since you are a person with outstanding physical ability, I don’t think it will take long. However, the muscles in my entire body were on the verge of rupture, so it would probably last half a day…”

At that time, a somewhat weak voice was heard from inside the carriage.

“Half a day is a disaster.”

Shake!

The carriage door opened and Seo-ryang got out. Geumho was following behind him.

“Confucius!”

The two surprised people quickly approached Seo-ryang.

Xu Liang’s complexion was still pale. The demonic energy, which had become unstable due to the inability to control its internal power, began to stir slightly and even stumbled due to lack of strength.

Ma Dong-pil quickly helped him up.

“Are you okay?”

“Bitch, does this look good to your eyes?”

“I’m sorry!”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“I have a lot to be sorry for. “Are you hurt anywhere?”

“I am okay.”

“huh? You say it’s okay, but why does your face look like that? “Have you suffered a broken heart?”

Embarrassed, Ma Dong-pil hurriedly shook his head.

“It’s not like that!”

“It’s still fun to tease.”

“Confucius, how about you come back inside and do some meditation? “You still seem to have difficulty moving.”

“it’s okay. “This is enough.”

“Still…”

“Use it!”

“…sorry.”

“I came out because it was worth moving. The work is done, so you don’t have to worry so much. Also, put this under your arm and put your arm away. “It’s so stuffy that I’m dying.”

Ma Dong-pil sighed inwardly. This was because he knew how stubborn Seoliang was.

As soon as I let go of my supporting arm, Seoyang stumbled for a moment.

But he took a moment to catch his breath and straighten himself up. Although it was difficult, there didn’t seem to be much trouble moving.

“Hey, Governor General.”

It was a very quick recovery for a person who was on the verge of death due to severe internal trauma. Juhwa, who was looking at Seoliang in shock, quickly got down on one knee.

“Please kill me, Master.”

“What did this guy say again?”

“We were insensitive and brought great inconvenience to Confucius. “I have committed a mortal sin.”

Seo-ryang shuddered as if he was fed up.

“Why on earth are you asking me to kill you for causing such trouble?”

“…yes?”

“Stop talking nonsense and get up now. “Is it really a characteristic of mine people to make noise?”

In fact, there was no way the two could make such a big statement despite being Map Mine.

“by the way.”

Xu Liang’s face turned cold.

“Where did you dump his body?”

Part of me wanted to cut off his limbs, subject him to all kinds of torture, and then send him to the goal.

But I felt like my body couldn’t hold on any longer, so I suddenly broke my neck. Whatever the reason, I can’t get caught in the act of coining again out of anger.

Ma Dong-pil said calmly.

“They were dumped together near the red wolf carcasses. “I collected all my belongings, including my clothes, just in case.”

“okay?”

“yes.”

Xiliang looked up at the sky.

A red sunset was burning across the clear sky.

“Okay, good job.”

Ma Dong-pil cleared his throat.

At first glance, it seemed refreshing, but upon closer inspection, a somewhat bitter feeling appeared. It seemed like the screening process was complicated.

“Dongpil.”

“Yes, Confucius.”

“You should never live with a grudge against someone.”

“yes?”

“They don’t tell you not to get angry, and they don’t tell you not to hate them. Just let go of those feelings quickly and forget about them.”

Xi Liang kept his accusation.

“If you live your life tightly like I did, life becomes tiring.”

“….”

“Well, you can just ignore it. “Because you are also a very subjective person.”

“No, Confucius. “I will engrave Confucius’ words in my bones.”

“Damn.”

Seoyang looked around with a bright expression that he had worked hard to create.

“Did you find everything?”

“yes. And… they also captured a man who appeared to be a member of the group. Would you like to take a look?”

“Don’t look. “My business is done.”

“All right. If so, can we leave right now? “I think it would be a good idea to stop by the branch and rest.”

“It’s good. “Let’s go eat some delicious food and rest on a soft bed.”

Xiliang shouted cheerfully.

“Now go back…”

For a moment, his expression became blank.

Ma Dong-pil shouted loudly without even seeing Seo-ryang’s face.

“Governor General! “I think we can leave now!”

“yes.”

“All three groups, prepare to move! “We will move to the branch!”

“Jonmyeong!”

Surprised by the loud answer, Seoriang gasped and grabbed Ma Dongpil.

“Dongpil! Dongpil!”

“yes? “Do you have anything to say?”

“No, that’s not it, right now I…”

Before Seoryang could finish his words, Ma Dongpil’s face hardened.

“Confucius!”

“I’ve been thinking about it for a while, and it seems like I still have a little more work to do…”

At that moment, Seoryang’s knees buckled.

At the same time, blood flowed from my nose. This is because I moved too much while my body was not fully healed.

‘What the fuck?!’

Ma Dong-pil hurriedly helped Seo-ryang.

“I can’t do that. “We will move as quickly as possible.”

“Cough! no! That is….”

“There are talented lawmakers on standby at the branch all the time. “It would be better to get examined by a doctor.”

“This bird…!”

“Governor General! Hurry up and get ready! Confucius’ details have deteriorated!”

Juhwa quickly responded.

“Everyone in the convoy, get on the wagon! “I will run without stopping!”

A look of urgency appeared on Seo-ryang’s face. My head was spinning and my limbs were feeling weak, but that wasn’t important right now.

‘I have to go to the safe house! Let’s stop by! I’m not going! Please don’t go!’

Ma Dong-pil laid Seo-ryang down in the carriage.

Xu Liang’s vision gradually darkened.

‘I’m not going!!’

Rattling!

The carriage door closed.
