Chapter 607 – 607. Map of Ascension to Gwangmyeong
607. Gwangmyeong Ascension Map
An important customer who came to Shin Gong-se was a man wearing a navy blue coat. His face was pale to the point of being white, and there were dark eye shadows under his eyes. His pupils are like the eyes of a dead child.
Shin Gong-se’s relaxed face hardened as soon as he checked him.
“Two people. Right now I’m talking to the first guest.”
“Because you are the first guest…. In my eyes, he looks like a patron, not a guest. What other schemes have you been plotting?”
“You are rude. I don’t even ask for an apology, but please step back at least for now.”
We were also disrespected, but in the eyes of Shin Gong-se, he didn’t care. As the man said, the new gongse is looking at us as a hukou.
The man didn’t care and came over to us and sat down on an empty chair.
“I am Dumanjeong, the elder of Namjimun. You guys must be soldiers belonging to Meteor Checkpoint, right?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
I answered.
“Two great people!”
Shin Gong-sae screamed loudly, but Du Man-jung did not pay attention. He rather stares at me. A golden light shone in the eyes of a dead fish.
Belatedly, information about Dumanjeong came to mind.
Du Man-jeong, the elder of Nam Ji-mun, is a magician born with an aesthetic eye that sees through the essence. Aesthetic eyes in this world are special eyes that find the essence. One of the best talents for a sorcerer. In the original story, he fights with the main character and dies.
“This is amazing.”
Dumanjeong looks at me and smiles. I didn’t know what he saw in me.
“God Young master. I want to talk with Iza alone. Make a seat.”
“What are you up to?”
“That’s what I want to ask.”
“…… What is your business?”
“Nam Ji-munju’s patience has reached its limit. Will gradually intervene. Within ten days, Nam Ji-mun’s Cheonghadae will arrive at Payang City.”
Dumanjeong’s act was clearly an act of betrayal by Namjimun. Unlike the original work, he seems to have been captured by the new offensive.
“…… There is an unwritten rule in this situation. Ahyeonsinga and Jikgapyoguk growl and fight each other, but they have no intention of handing over anything to Nam Ji-moon. Do you think Nam Ji-moon can handle Ahyeonsinga and Jikga?”
“If I hadn’t thought so, I wouldn’t have moved.”
“I’ll turn. I’ve already finished all the preparations to hit the direct price tag station…. Under.”
“If you get the magic technique of Nagangmun within a week, you won’t have to fight.”
“If only it were easier said than done.”
“I told you what to say. I’d like to speak with interest separately.”
“Good. There’s a lot to think about, so let’s make room for you. Seongjigon Sohyup. Come out with me for a while and wait.”
They don’t ask for the opinions of Sung Ji-gon and me at all. As the man said, Shin Gong-se is treating us like a hogu.
Sung Ji-gon frowned. I tapped him on the shoulder and winked at him, telling him to go out with the new offensive.
There were only two people left in the room.
“This is Seong Eugene from the Meteor Inspection.”
“It’s Namjimun’s Dumanjeong.”
“What did you see in me?”
“Ohh. Do you know about my eyes?”
“Similar eyes. Eyes that see through the essence. It’s the first time I’ve seen it in person today, but I’ve heard of it.”
“You have more insight than I thought.”
“What did you see in me?”
“It is not wrong to say that aesthetic eyes see through the essence. However, the aesthetic effect is slightly different depending on the person. In my case, I can see what is hidden in the case of things and magic, and in the case of people, I can see the qualities.”
“You mean you saw my qualities. You must be disappointed.”
“Disappointment? What nonsense As soon as I saw your qualities, I was stunned. I’ve never met anyone with such outstanding qualities as you.”
“Yes? You seem to have misunderstood something. I have no talent.”
“My eyes couldn’t have been wrong. If you haven’t realized your talent yet, it’s because your talent hasn’t blossomed yet.”
“You say something that piques my curiosity. Can you tell me what you saw in me?”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen someone like you, so let me know. You see two things. One is lightning. Perhaps it is an attribute you have.”
“Yes. I was born with a thunder spirit.”
“I was born with thunder spirit, but I have no talent? He is a man who knows how to deceive people.”
“…….”
“The other is the energy of the stars.”
“…… The energy of the stars?”
“I heard that there are people born with the energy of the stars in this world, and they all become great people like fate. You haven’t awakened yet I don’t know exactly which planet’s energy you were born with, but if you awaken, you won’t be able to say that you have no talent again.”
“Could you elaborate a bit more?”
“I don’t know much about the energy of the stars. There are just a few examples. Among them, the famous ones are Cheonsalseong and Jamiseong.”
“I’ve never heard of it.”
“You would have heard. It’s a story about the emperor and killing himself.”
“…… Could it be that the emperor and the god of death?”
“Yes. The emperor was Jamiseong, and the death penalty was Cheonsalsung.”
In this world, the story of the emperor and death was so famous that even the kids in the neighborhood knew about it.
To briefly summarize the story, about 700 years ago, a death god caused a great bloody apocalypse, and the emperor killed the death god and restored peace to the world. The emperor subsequently founded the Qin Empire.
Payang City, where I am now, and Hudan City, where Yuseong Checkpoint is located, also belong to the Qin Empire. Being the outskirts of the periphery, it is extremely far from the capital.
“Could I be Cheonsalseong or Jamiseong?”
“No way. Zamiseong already has an emperor, so there is nothing for you to be born with. If you were the Celestial Killer, I would have felt ominous in you. The Celestial Star is such a powerful star. There is little information about the aura of the stars. I only found out through the literature. I do not know which star you were born with.”
“Is the energy of the stars that great?”
“There is no case of a guy born with the energy of the stars who hasn’t become a great person.”
“…… Are you going to kill me?”
“You don’t go out of your way to the point of being jealous of the energy of the stars you were born with. I just wanted to talk to a guy who was born with the energy of the stars.”
“Are you satisfied?”
“No. It’s less fun than I thought, and there’s nothing to gain. Still, I won’t pay for you because you’ve been in my conversation. You must be looking for Nagangmun’s magic technique, too, right?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
I had a rough idea of where the Nagang Gate’s magic tools were. But it was very difficult to find. This is because the description of the original was too brief, even if it was brief.
“The religious device of Nagangmun is on a small mountain in the east of Payang City. It’s hidden by a high-level barrier, so it’s hard to find unless you’re a magician of at least Ogi or higher.”
Know. The problem is that the exact entrance cannot be identified because of the barrier. If you dig in the ground, you can ignore the barrier, but if you dig in the ground in a distant place, you will only waste time.
Du Man-jeong took out an amulet from her bosom and handed it to me.
“If you have this talisman, you should be able to see the barrier.”
“Is it an amulet that sees through barriers?”
“My skills are not enough for that. This just marks the location of the entrance I saw. If you go in the direction indicated by the end of this amulet and dig in the ground or destroy the surrounding area, you will be able to enter the place where the magic technique of Nagangmun is located.”
“What is the purpose of the two great people? If you knew the location of the magic tool, why….”
“I am not interested in the Dharma tools of Nagangmun. I will use this opportunity to leave here. I’m sick of being pampered at Namjimun. If you want to have a magical weapon, use that amulet. If you can handle the magic of Nagangmun.”
“…… Can I give it to someone else?”
“Does not matter.”
Doo Man-jung jumped up from his seat. He stumbled and left the room. Sung Ji-gon enters immediately. Through the crack in the door, he could see Shin Gong-sae chasing after Duman-jeong.
“Eugene! Could it be that he threatened you?”
“No. We just had a little conversation.”
The purpose of the dumanjeong.
My head is a little confused by the actions of Dumanjeong, which are different from the original work. However, he soon comes to his senses and thinks of a way to use this amulet.
“Sung Ji-gon. Let’s go back to the direct ticket country.”
•••
Returned to the direct ticketing country.
As soon as I returned, I met Seokjuk, the three elders of the Yuseong Checkpoint.
“Did you finish your business well?”
“Yes. Mission accomplished.”
“I’m glad you succeeded. Is there anything that the New Gongsong Young master left for me?”
“There is not.”
“Tsk.”
The tongue-tied stone porridge passed us.
‘Does he think he can be anything?’
He was a foolish bastard. I smiled and went with Sung Ji-gon to Jik Seong-mi, the eldest daughter of the Jik-ga mark country.
Ji Seong-mi was sitting at the table, quietly sipping green tea.
“You say something important about Nagangmun’s Dharma Device?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm. To be honest, I don’t have faith at all, but I’ll listen to it because it’s related to Nagangmun’s magic instrument.”
Jikshengmi said as she took a sip of warm green tea. I don’t expect it at all, but I’m bored, so I’m going to listen to it first.
She never took her hand off the green tea once we entered the room.
“I’ve found out where the Nagang Gate’s magic tool is.”
Widely!
The teacup fell violently onto the table. The green tea bounced sideways, but Ji Seong-mi’s black eyes were nailed to me and did not move.
“Are you kidding?”
“I’m not stupid enough to joke about this.”
“I will not forgive you if you deceive me.”
“I could risk my life.”
“…… What was your name?”
“This is Seong Yujin. This is Sung Ji-gon, my brother.”
“If it’s your last name….”
“Yes. My father is the meteor inspection master.”
Her demeanor became more serious than before.
“Tell me about the Dharma tools of Nagangmun. How did you find out the location of the magic tool? Of course you can also tell me where it is, right?”
“There are conditions before that.”
“It’s a condition…. Wasn’t our Direct Ticketing Bureau and Meteor Inspection a cooperative relationship?”
“Khehehe.”
When I laughed lowly, Ji Sung-mi frowned as if in displeasure.
“It was a funny joke. Direct saw. We didn’t even report to Elder Seok right now, and we went straight to the manager. In a way, it is the same as betraying the Meteor Inspection. Shouldn’t we be able to take advantage of that?”
“Should I believe the words of those who betrayed the school?”
“You don’t have to believe it if you don’t want to believe it.”
“…… What are the conditions?”
“It is an elixir. If you give us the elixir right now, I will tell you the location of the Nagangmun magic tool.”
“The direct ticket office has not yet established itself in Payang. Do you think there is an elixir?”
“Didn’t you bring some? If you don’t have it, I’ll leave as it is.”
“Are you going to step back and report to Meteor Inspection?”
“Even if we report to the Meteor Inspection, we can’t get the Elixir. Because there is no elixir for meteor inspection right now. Chiha’s words are everything. That is why we want to do business with Jigsawer.”
“…… I’ll be leaving for a while, so wait.”
The jigseongmi disappeared for about 2 hours and then came back.
In her hand was a box of silk. She put the box on her table and untied her silk.
Instantly, the fragrant smell filled her room.
“This….”
“It’s Seolsam.”
It was 2 white hemp roots. Seeing it up close, I can feel the spirit. Seong Ji-gon and I swallowed our saliva. It is more elixir than the mochi acupuncture I ate before.
“It’s an elixir that has been grown for about 80 years. Did you know that the variety of seolsam itself is excellent as an elixir? It’s hard to buy with a hermit, and even if you can’t do it, you can get 3 cheonok. It is an item brought in in case you need an emergency supply while settling down in Payang City.”
“Nagangmun’s magic tool will be worth more than that, so there is no need to worry.”
“If I hadn’t known that, I wouldn’t have done this.”
“I will now tell you the location of the Nagang Gate’s magic instrument. So let’s go here….”
“For a moment. Didn’t I tell you earlier that I can’t believe your words? I will give you these three things after I find Nagangmun’s magic technique.”
“…… This talisman will tell you where Nagangmun’s magic item is. So let’s not forget….”
“You guys should go too. At best, I got a clue, but there’s no reason to procrastinate. We will only move with a minimum number of people so as not to arouse suspicion. Prepare yourself too.”
Jikshengmei wrapped the box in silk again. I only tasted it.
