Chapter 1526 – 1526. Map of Ascension
I told Chun Yu-wun exactly what I said to Jeok Myol Dae-joo.
Of course, some have changed.
“Youkai who attacked the city. They were the masterpieces of Mukjiryun.”
“As expected. Did you see the blonde-haired woman who killed Taesangmunju of the Chongnam Sect?”
“No. I was in Jongnam City, so I don’t know what happened to Jongnampa. I’m surprised that she killed Taesangmunju. Do you know who that woman is?”
Chun Yuun did not answer right away. He thought for a moment before opening his mouth.
“I am the owner of Mukjiryeon. Nachal girl She is a woman who must be killed if I want to get the ink lotus.”
“… You say you get mukjiryeon?”
“I will explain the details later. What happened to what I asked for?”
“If it was Mukjiryeon’s Jongnamsan branch, I checked before leaving Jongnamsan. He boldly dug a tunnel under Jongnam City. There were no barriers there. Thanks to that, I was able to get in easily.”
“What happened?”
“There were only corpses.”
“… Dead body?”
“A corpse of a human-like monster. A corpse of a worm-like monster. The corpse of a ghost-like person. They were all corpses cut by swords.”
Chun Yuun nodded slowly.
“It seems that Rakshanyeo organized the branch office. Who knows about this? Did you tell the lord of the enemy?”
“Cheon Yoo-woon. I also have an eye for it. I was silent about Mukjiryun. No one knows except me.”
“Good job.”
“… Are you thinking of killing me to silence me?”
“What a boring joke.”
Chun Yu-woon said with a laugh. I know. This guy is a guy who can throw away his comrades if he’s wrong.
“Yeom cornerheheard that Jongnam called him the best sword in Joseon. What did you mean by that nickname?”
I was taken aback by his sudden question. I forgot, but Cheon Yu-woon was the possessor. It is also a Korean possessor.
“It makes no sense. It means a prosecutor from the Munpa called Joseonpa. It’s a nickname I made up roughly.”
“Chosun faction? Was there such a thing?”
“They say it’s a one-person faction. I heard it while passing by.”
“Is it.”
It didn’t feel convincing. Maybe I should investigate it separately.
‘I’ll have to tell the female nachal to create a sect called the Joseon faction and manipulate the information. I don’t think you can completely fake it… Since the war is right around the corner, even Chun Yuun won’t be able to dig deep.’
I told him to change the subject of conversation.
“Cheon Yoo-woon. What are you thinking about doing? Are you going to report the existence of Mujiryun to the authorities?”
The moment Chun Yu-un reports about Mukji-ryeon to the Cheonma Shinkyo, the organization called Muk-ji-ryeon will disappear from this world. Even the Raccoons will be killed by the armed forces dispatched by the Heavenly Demon Religion.
“I never do that. That is the worst option.”
Chun Yuun said firmly.
The beginning of Mukjiryeon was Cheon Yu-un. I don’t know how I met the demon girl, but that fact was certain. Mukjiryeon grew up in the shadows, and now it has become one of the best organizations in the shadows. In Mukjiryeon, the influence of Cheon Yu-un still remains. If Muk Ji-ryeon perishes, Cheon Yu-un, who is also involved, will also be in trouble.
“I will have to dig a trap. He kills the female demon and puts the lotus of ink into her hands. It would be nice during the war. That way, even the demons will be off guard….”
Chun Yuyun murmured. Doing this in front of me also meant that he believed in me. To be precise, he believes in the salt corner of the original work he knows. Yeomgu-seok in the original work is a supporting character who kept his faith and loyalty to the end.
“What should I do?”
After thinking for a while, Chun Yuun said.
“I’m thinking of putting you in the Mukjiryun on my recommendation.”
“In Mujiryeon? I am annihilated The war is right around the corner. There is no time to go into meditation.”
“There is room. Internal cleanup is not going to end all at once. You enter the Mukjiryun, show off your abilities, and earn their trust as soon as possible. I’ll push you, so it won’t be difficult.”
“The demonic woman will be wary of me.”
“When the woman sees her powers, she tries to take advantage. There’s a good chance she’ll try to get you back. She then moves on pretending she doesn’t know. If you hand over information about me to the rake, she might be able to gain some trust.”
“…… And?”
“Later. When the time comes, I will call the demon. That’s when I need your help.”
“I get it.”
A conspiracy swirls.
And I was at the center of the plot.
•••
The gratitude of Yeommadae is over.
I passed the audit without difficulty, and I immediately left the Chunma Shinkyo after accepting the mission.
Originally, it was rare for personal missions to fail in this cluttered atmosphere. It is possible because Chun Yu-woon put his hands on it.
Xiaoyong City, a city 50 days away from the Heavenly Demon Goddess.
It was a splendid city along the river. It is a city that quickly accumulated wealth through trade with other cities thanks to its proximity to the river.
Entered the city no one caught me Soyong City was a city that welcomed travelers. Even though it is in the realm of the Heavenly Demon, it is open to it because it is far away from it.
‘The problem is being too open. It’s good for spies to infiltrate.’
My mission was threefold.
The first is to purify the branch of the Heavenly Demonic Church here. Corruption was too much in this branch. To the extent that I, a member of the Red Army, came to this city myself.
The second is to find and eliminate spies hiding in the city. In my space box, there was a list given by Yeommadae. Find the ones on the list and kill them.
Third is city blockade. I manage the city until a new city manager comes along.
I first stopped walking on the streets of the city. There were beings who did not fit in the splendid city.
It was a beggar.
A stench that made you frown upon the dirty clothes, the scattered hair, and the black grime on the skin. It was a common sight in any city. The beggar sat there, leaning against the wall.
The beggar was young. He looks like he’s in his late 20’s at most. Buying is fine. Still, he lives as a beggar.
As I watched, he put on his most pitiful expression and begged for his hands.
“Just a penny… Just give me a penny, man…. I am so hungry….”
It was a voice that sounded like everyone was dying. If you look down a little more, you can see a begging bowl. Inside the dented and rusty bowl were three coins.
I kicked the bowl.
The bowl rolled across the ground and flew away. The three coins roll around on the floor making a loud noise.
“…….”
“…….”
The beggar with a devastated expression looked up at me, and I looked down at the beggar with an expressionless face.
“Did I do something wrong… ?”
“…….”
“I was wrong! Forgive me! I beg you! I will bow my head, so please forgive me!”
A beggar bangs his head on the ground. The crown of the head is visible. Small white bugs roamed among the black heads. The beggar’s bow caused irritation.
The beggar bowed his head at me several times. However, when I didn’t react, I started to move while watching. Pick up 3 coins that fell on the floor and an old bowl. I followed the beggar.
A beggar in the middle of the street looks at the surroundings and points a finger at me.
“You are suspicious! Something suspicious has been following me! Save me! Please!”
I did quite a bit of hair.
In broad daylight, hundreds of people make a fuss on the street. Ordinary people would run away even if they were afraid of staring at them. Even if it weren’t for that, the knights whose lungs were filled with vain winds would step out and try to save them. Gathering eyes also means that it is an opportunity to gain fame.
I threw a joint at the screaming beggar.
Quick!
With a cheerful sound, the beggar’s right calf is terrified.
“Aaaaagh!”
The beggar falls to the floor and screams.
I stepped on the beggar’s left knee. It broke easily when force was applied. Next is the right arm and the left arm.
“Help me! Whoops! Save me! Who, who please… ! My arms and legs won’t move! Save me, save me!”
“…….”
But no one helps.
The observers are watching the situation with shiny eyes even though they feel fear. Of course, there were a few sane people among them.
“Isn’t I supposed to help that person?”
“You. I haven’t lived my life yet Can’t you see the knife hanging from the waist of the man in the black long robe? That’s Moorim’s job. Murim’s work is for the Murim people to take care of themselves. It’s not our business to intervene.”
“But shouldn’t we inform the soldiers of the Heavenly Demon Church?”
“Did you inform me? Of course, you take care of the aftermath.”
“…….”
The young man shut his mouth.
I watched the beggar. Wriggling wriggling. With a face full of fear, he tries to get away from me as much as possible. His face was full of runny nose and tears.
“It’s not a beggar, it’s like a bug.”
Put your foot on the beggar’s back. The beggar is frightened.
“Sah, save me! Why are you doing this to me, Daein!”
“I know you are an open beggar. There must be a beggar on the level of Buntaju. Tell me where he is Then I’ll kill you with ease.”
“I-I am not an open member! There is no knot that open beggars have!”
“They say that a beggar belonging to an open group who has not mastered martial arts is called Mugyeolgae (無結丐). Did you think I didn’t know that?”
Open beggars tie a knot around their waists. A beggar who has just learned martial arts is famous for opening one knot, a buntaju class for five knots, an elder class for seven knots, and an ark for nine knots.
“Not really! I have nothing to do with openness!”
“Are you saying you don’t want to die easily? The open beggars are great. Don’t let me experience what it is like to have a broken heart.”
“No!! No!!”
I bounced with a moderate amount of strength at the tip of my finger. Internal strength presses the point blood.
Puck!
The beggar’s shoulder exploded. Blood, flesh, and bone fragments splattered.
“… Tsk.”
Force control failed. It was a mistake that occurred because of the lack of experience of divination with tanji-gong. The beggar died of shock.
I took a chair out of the box and sat down.
“Fist.”
With all his strength, he said quietly. Nervous glances gathered at me.
I pointed my finger at the young man. It was the young man who said earlier that he should help the beggar. The people around the targeted young man hurriedly backed away and spread their distance. The young man’s legs trembled as if he were doing a crab leg dance.
“Go to the Cheonma Shinkyo branch and tell them. The 6th group of the enemy squad has arrived, so blockade the city right now.”
“Oh that….”
“Run right away.”
“Yes, yes!”
The young man started running. I watched the people around me. They looked enviously at the young man’s back as he walked away.
I took out a sack of money from the spacebox. When the money sack was opened, hermits poured out.
“Catch the beggars hiding in this city. I’ll give you 50 pieces of silver for each.”
For reference, the monthly income of an ordinary person is 5 nyang of silver. Silver is 50 nyang. Ten months of money can be earned by catching beggars.
Greed burns in people’s eyes. It is not for nothing that there is a lion idiom called Sammosa Jo. These guys were distracted by the money piled up in front of their eyes.
“Here! Caught a beggar here! He’s hanging out nearby!”
A hairy hairy smelling like alcohol grabbed the beggar by the back and approached me. The hairy boy was at the level of garbage, but there were traces of learning martial arts.
I stood up and stepped on the beggar’s leg.
“Good job. Since you caught a beggar for the first time, I’ll give you an extra 50 nyang. Take 100 Nyang!”
“Really?!”
“Take it yourself.”
“I will take exactly 100 nyang! Thank you, man!”
The furbo took the money in a hurry. A smile forms on the furry mouth.
“With this money, I can pay off my debt…. That, but a great person. Will you give me money even if I catch a beggar again?”
“Give. It is 50 Nyang per dog. If you catch ten, it’s 500 nyang.”
Haha! Jaeshin! Jaeshin descended on me! Wait a minute! I’ll catch the beggar and give it to you!”
The hairy boy laughed and ran somewhere. Some people who were watching the situation noticed and ran away.
I continued the interrogation, stepping on the arm of the beggar lying on the floor.
“Spit open information. How many open beggars are there in this city? Where is Buntaju?”
