The 273rd episode of this drinking party’s affair.
With the advent of sword dance, the situation took a new turn.
I wasn’t really surprised because I expected a sword dance performance from Bisainiya, but Jinha was surprised.
‘He’s a sword dancer!’
The warriors who came in earlier had shields and evil spirits drawn on their chests. It means Cheonmajeon escorts. In that case, the two unusual demons who followed along must be Majons.
That old man wearing a sword that is bigger than his body is probably Hyeolcheondo-mae, and that man who looks like he is made of steel is Gwonmae. Especially when I saw Kwon Ma’s face, my heart sank. This was my first time seeing such a scary face.
‘Even the devil’s cult has appeared, right?’
Jinha was embarrassed, but at the same time, he understood. The people who tried to swallow up Cheonhwamun in the first place were the Demonic Cult, so of course they would not just back down.
The person who was most shocked by the appearance of sword dance was Seo Baek-jung. The Demon Cult leader must have been very angry because he used the power of the Murim Alliance to get his son out. What is it that he showed up here with the Mazons in tow?
Although I was in the middle of a difficult pregnancy, my heart was breaking at this moment.
‘If you make a mistake, you will die.’
If the minor leader of the Sadomaeng or the minor leader of the Demonic Cult were to try to kill him, would Jin Ha-gun risk his life to stop him? He may have to make this a public issue and make it an issue, but that will happen after he dies.
I’ve been able to ride the rope between Jeongsama Sai well so far, but now I need to ride it really well. That line was his lifeline.
Meanwhile, Seocheong was feeling confused. I was full of fear until Bisain came in, but when the sword dance appeared, I was confused and thought, ‘What on earth is this?’
Then my eyes met with the sword dance. The expression on Geommugeuk’s face seemed to say this.
I said I’d see you again soon, right? You are right there.
Then Seo Cheong became inwardly angry.
‘Do not be ridiculous!’
Seo Cheong, who had retreated to a corner, actually walked forward.
‘Even so, it won’t do anything to me!’
He didn’t know how things were going now. Whenever a crisis came, I lived a life with the complacent thought of ‘what will happen?’
On the contrary, I felt relieved that all the Jeongsama were together. His instincts feel this way. With so many people, someone must protect them.
He didn’t know. All these people came to prey on Cheonhwamun. How could it not work out this time?
Geommugeuk walked in front of Jinhagun. The Destroyer tensed and aimed his sword. The Cheonmajeon guards also pointed their swords at them. The subordinates were more nervous than the sword dance and Jinhagun.
The sword dance walked forward, cutting through the guards.
“I am the Sword Dance Lord of the Heavenly Demon Church.”
Jinhagun walked forward, dividing the warriors of the Destruction Demon Squadron.
“This is Jinha, the ruler of the Murim Alliance.”
With a few steps between them, the two people’s gazes became intertwined in the air.
A historic moment of meeting between the undisputed next Heavenly Demon and the likely next Murim Lord!
Jinha was inwardly surprised. The sword dance performance was different from what he had thought. Aside from being young and handsome, his eyes were clear and deep. It didn’t feel evil at all. Suddenly, I remembered what my younger brother said.
-What are you going to do if it’s the Demon Cooperative?
Soon Jinha denied his younger brother’s words. It is a preconceived notion based on appearance. Never be fooled by appearances.
Geommugeuk felt that Jinha looked exactly like Jin Ha-ryeong. Even though he was young, his eyes were filled with determination and spirit. If you are for the sake of Moorim, you should hope that Jinha-gun becomes the next leader, and if you dream of unifying Moorim, you should hope that Jinha-gun will not become the next leader.
There was a fierce battle of nerves between the extermination squad and the guards lined up at the back. There was no backing down in the gazes they glared at each other.
Geommugeuk said to Jinha.
“Instead of standing like this, shall we sit down and talk about the district in earnest?”
Then Jinha turned around and walked to the drinking table. And he sat down at the head of the table as if to show off. Then he held out his hand to tell me to sit down on either side.
Geommugeuk smiled slightly at that sight. Is it pretty? Jinha’s first impression was that he passed the exam. If I had met the Murim Lord’s grandson and someone like Seo Cheong turned out, I would have felt really bad. But Jinha has good eyes and good spirit.
The person who moved first was Bisain. Bisain walked away with long strides.
Instead of holding out his hand for Jinha to sit, I sat in front of him.
And then he stared at Jinha without saying a word. A quiet battle of energy began between the two.
Seeing that, Geommugeuk’s smile grew even deeper. Yes, there is no way Bisain will just do whatever Jinhagun wants.
Jinha may have lived his entire life as the main character, but here he will discover that he can also be a supporting character.
For the sword dance, Jinha sat down in one place. Then, naturally, I sat down while Jinhagun and Bisain were confronting each other.
“The most interesting thing in the world is watching fights, but a fight between the successors of the political faction and the Sa faction? “I found a good spot.”
Despite the jokes of the sword dance, the tension in the hall did not ease.
On the contrary, when the three people sat close together, a war of nerves broke out.
The Destruction Demon Corps and the Apostle Thirteen Celestial Demon Guards lined up behind their respective masters and glared at each other. The people who came with us are very expert, but they are elite warriors who fight really well. If a fight breaks out, it will quickly turn into a sea of blood.
The Red Yan was sending a message to the guards lined up together.
-Don’t be nervous!
―No matter what happens, we must protect the well-being of Lord Xiao.
-Don’t be scared.
He continued to send messages and console them. In fact, it was something I said to myself. I never imagined that I would have to escort a sword dance in a situation like this. I really feel it again, but he is the most difficult leader to protect in the martial arts world.
Hyeolcheon Doma and Gwonma Geomseon Goeak and Gwangseom were naturally standing a little distance away. The tension at first and the tension after the Mazons joined were completely different. Although we didn’t give each other tickets, we were ready to go out at any time.
The eyes of Hyeolcheon Doma and Geomseon met.
“It’s been a while.”
Hyeolcheondoma greeted Geomseon first. Then Geomseon accepted his greeting.
“Has it been ten years?”
“I think it went further.”
It was a sword that would be frowned upon by Sapa or the Demonic Cult, but the look in his eyes at Hyeolcheondoma was not that bad. It seemed like there was some kind of relationship between the two in the past.
“I see you in a place like this.”
Hyeolcheondoma responded to Geomseon’s words.
“I’m glad you look healthy.”
“You’re even thinner.”
Then a monster came out.
“How can you pretend to be so friendly when you’re not even close?”
Hyeolcheondoma said to him.
“You still have the habit of interfering carelessly.”
“You still have the habit of ignoring people.”
The monster called Hyeolcheondoma his senior.
“Now that I know I’m still the same, it’s better to keep quiet.”
The monster snorted, but couldn’t say anything. Regardless of martial arts training, the more difficult thing than swordsmanship was Hyeolcheon Doma. Indeed, Moorim’s Spicy Ginger Hyeolcheon Doma was answering the question of why he had to be called this time.
Meanwhile, Kwon Ma was standing with his fists hanging down and an expressionless face, and that alone made everyone there nervous. It wasn’t just because of the face. The momentum was incredible. The feeling of a fighting horse when just looking at it and the fighting horse in front of enemies were completely different.
Jinha picked up the bottle and filled the glass. He acted as if he were the owner of this place on behalf of Seo Baek-jung. He had to deal with both the Demonic Cult and the Apostolic Alliance, and was trying not to be defeated by the momentum.
“I’ve heard a lot of rumors about you.”
Jinha was especially wary of sword dancing. The opponent is Mine. He is also the leader of the Demonic Cult who has made all the Magons his own and is said to be the greatest successor of all time. I was extremely nervous because I didn’t know what the other person would do.
“What was the rumor?”
“It was mostly a rumor that was hard to believe.”
“Then how does it feel to see it in person?”
Honestly, I had no idea what kind of person the other person was.
Instead of answering, Jinha raised his glass high. He knew better than anyone else that being silent is a wise choice when you don’t know anything.
“Let’s have a drink!”
The three people toasted and then emptied their drinks. It was truly the first drinking party of three people who will be remembered forever in the history of Gangho.
Jinha asked as he filled his second glass.
“I don’t think it’s the first time you two have met.”
This could be seen from the fact that the sword dance and the non-sain did not greet each other separately.
“That’s right. “We are old.”
Geommugeuk looked at Bisain and said hello.
“How have you been?”
I won’t reveal that we planned this together, but we didn’t pretend that it was our first meeting.
Bisain answered bluntly.
“We were doing well until you showed up.”
Jinha was watching so I reacted bluntly, but I was grateful to Geommugeuk. Thanks to this, the fifteen small and medium-sized factions in Honam were able to be absorbed into the Sado Alliance. Of course, we do not intend to give up Cheonhwamun Gate. Because we decided to compete fairly.
-I will not give in.
Geommugeuk responded to Bisain’s voice.
-I intend to yield.
-How can you lie without even changing your expression?
―Are you aware of it?
Bisain turned his head away with an expression that said he couldn’t stop him. The tension that had been tense with Jin Ha was immediately relieved when they exchanged sword dance and war notes. If I didn’t know what kind of person Geomugeuk was, I would have thought he was a no-nonsense person like that. But now I know. More than any of the masters here, the person who is hardest to deal with is Geomjugeuk.
Meanwhile, messages were also passing between Jinhagun and Seobaekjung. Today, everything will be decided by the words that are not heard rather than the words that are heard.
-Never be discouraged.
-I only believe in the Lord.
But contrary to what he said, Seo Baek-jung was feeling anxious on the inside. Since Sapa and Magyo had decided to rush in, they were even considering the possibility of having to change ships depending on the situation.
And finally it came.
Geommugeuk looked at Seo Baek-jung, who was standing next to him, and said.
“Now, Mr. Moon, why don’t you have a drink with us?”
Seo Baek-jung sat side by side next to Jin Ha-gun and received a drink.
Bisain continued what he said before the sword dance appeared.
“Seo Munju, are you really going to go the same way as the Murim Alliance?”
Seo Baek-jung still hesitated to answer.
The reason he chose the Murim Alliance was because of Baek Cheon-gyeong, a hat hat man and Jinhagun’s master. It’s a relationship that can’t be easily betrayed, but this was the same. Because it was impossible to say to the successor of the Apostolic Alliance, ‘Yes, we betrayed you.’
Seo Baek-jung glanced at Jin-ha, the rescuer.
Jinha, you don’t have to pay attention to those people. Speak confidently. He had this look in his eyes.
Geommugeuk, who was observing the two people’s reactions, asked Jinha.
“Is this your first meeting with Seo Mun-ju?”
“exactly.”
He tried to show Seo Baek-jung that he was confident in the sword dance and in front of Bisain. But his answer gave Geommugeuk another question.
“It’s such a strange thing. “This is the first time you two have met each other, so what on earth did Moonju believe in and ask for your help?”
Geommugeuk and Bisain’s gaze turned towards Seo Baek-jung.
Originally, he said, ‘I have admired the political faction from the beginning.’ I had to say something like that.
But he didn’t expect how this situation would turn out. They are careful about what they say because they are afraid that something might happen that will lead them to become attached to a demonic cult or a sect. What if Jinha gets angry like this? It doesn’t matter if you get angry. Because all three of them want Cheonhwamun Gate anyway. It was a close call, but he was still holding the hilt of the sword.
At that time, Geomgeuk asked directly.
“Who was the bridge between you two?”
The point that Geomukgeuk is most interested in in this incident is the question of who organized this incident.
Seo Baek-jung and Jin Ha-gun did not give any answers to the questions of the sword dance that hit the nail on the head. I should have said that there was no such person, but I couldn’t because of the sudden question.
‘There’s definitely someone there.’
It was the moment when Geommugeuk’s guess became certain.
‘A person who knew both Jin Ha-gun and Seo Baek-jung connected the line.’
We must find him. It was not just because he connected Jinhagun and Seobaekjung. This is because he had the guts to confront the Heavenly Demon Church. Who is it?
Prince Jinha sensed that Seobaekjung was shaking and immediately sent a message.
-Lord Moon, you must trust us.
-I believe it. But as you can see, they don’t seem to give up easily.
-We won’t give up either.
―Please be assured.
Seo Baek-jung made a request to Jin Ha-gun.
Jin Ha-gun was in a situation where he could not give up Cheonhwamun, so he spoke firmly as if he were making a declaration.
“As long as Cheonhwamun and Bonmaeng join hands, we will definitely protect Cheonhwamun. “I will consider threatening Cheonhwamun as an attack on the main alliance.”
As if in response, the warriors of the Destruction Demon Corps increased their momentum.
Then Bisain spoke coldly.
“That’s what you think. “I haven’t heard an answer from Cheonhwamunju yet.”
As if they had been waiting, the Apostles also increased their momentum.
Bisain sent a message to Seo Baek-jung.
-All the sects that followed you turned away. Now, if there is a problem in Honam, who will help Cheonhwamun? Do you think that Demon Demon Lord will protect you here for the rest of your life? This is not a threat, this is a statement of reality.
How can Seo Baek-jung not know this reality?
-The path you take with us is the best.
Seo Baek-jung looked at the sword dance, thinking that realistically, it might be a wise choice.
There were three ropes, and two of them were waving in front of me, asking me to hold on. But the rest of the line was further away.
Why don’t you present it to me?
As if he had read those thoughts, Geommugeuk smiled and said.
“I find this drinking party’s love affair fun. So please never say that you will follow our school.”
At those words, everyone’s eyes turned to the sword dance. Everyone knew that Geommugeuk would not give up Cheonhwamun so easily. A smile formed on the lips of Hyeolcheon Doma and Kwon Ma.
Bisain felt anxious inside.
‘no way?’
Whenever I woke up from this place, I had an ominous feeling that Seobaekjung would say that he would choose the Demonic Cult. I have a feeling that he will follow the Demon Cult even though he doesn’t like it.
And the first secret attempt of Geommugeuk to make that prediction a reality began.
Geommugeuk sent a message to Jinhagun.
―Let’s just ask Daju Jin.
Jinha stared at the sword dance with a look in his eyes that no trick would work. But something truly unexpected came to my mind.
―Do you want to become a Murim lord?
Jinha was surprised. I never thought I would ask such a question.
Jinha’s eyes widened, and words came to him that shook him even more powerfully than before.
―Do you know that? You are now giving up on yourself as the Murim Lord.
