Chapter 613 – 614. I Don’t Have the Confidence to Win Because the Words Don’t Work.

“…”

At Seonwoo’s fierce scolding, the leaders remained silent and their whole bodies began to tremble.

It was because he couldn’t refute Sunwoo’s words that hit his bones.

As he said, if you are afraid of sacrifice, you can just cancel the war.

His honor would plummet to the ground, but if he really cared about people, he wouldn’t mind.

A moment of embarrassment could prevent a great sacrifice.

But none of them were willing to follow his advice.

It was because their honor and pride were more important to them than a huge sacrifice.

Sunwoo dug into that fact without hesitation.

The truth that everyone knows but pretends not to know.

So they had no choice but to remain silent.

Because their duality was exposed as it was.

“Do you have anything more to say?”

Seonwoo asked the leadership in a calm tone.

“…”

But no answer came.

It was just keeping silent.

“If you don’t have anything to say, I’ll just go back.”

After he finished speaking, Seonwoo turned his body away without regret.

I thought it would be a waste of time if I had more.

“Stop!”

It was then that he heard a voice in his ear that made him feel uncomfortable just by hearing it.

Warak

Sunwoo frowned.

Because an annoying voice pierced my ears.

Sunwoo turned his body back to where the voice came from.

And he looked at the protagonist with a disgusting voice.

“What are you doing here, Lord Lord?”

Seonwoo looked at Lee Jaewon with an expression full of displeasure and asked.

“Have you come to a place where I can’t come?”

“It’s not a place you can’t come to… But isn’t it a place worth finding and coming to?”

Sunwoo continued to speak sarcasticly.

“I’ve heard that the leaders have come here. But how can I stay still?”

Lee Jae-won took the word with a calm expression on his face.

“Unfortunately, I think you’ve been in vain. I’ve already talked to them.”

“It’s not a waste of time. I also have something to say to you.”

“Tell me.”

Seonwoo asked him with a calm expression on his face.

My disgust soared just by mixing words, but

It was my intention to find out what the plan was.

“I beseech you. Please participate in the Great War.”

Lee Jae-won looked at Seon-woo with a straight gaze and continued.

“I refuse. I am not obligated to participate.”

“If you don’t participate in the war, countless soldiers will be sacrificed in vain.”

“If you’re worried about sacrifice, isn’t it right not to start a war in the first place? Instead of persuading me, reverse the declaration of the Great War.”

“I can’t do that.”

Lee Jae-won shook his head left and right with a calm expression.

“Are you afraid that the honor of the Cheonmu-maeng will be lost if you change your mind?”

Sunwoo asked him with a mocking smile.

“It’s not like that. It’s because the Jeongma Daejeon must be fought for the stability and peace of Murim.”

“I don’t agree with that.”

Seonwoo denied Lee Jaewon.

“Did you not feel any emotions when you saw the bloody death in Shandong?”

Lee Jae-won continued as if scolding him.

“People have died…Even countless people! But how can you leave the jugu who caused such a scene! If you leave it like this, the whole midfield will fall into the hands of demons How can you, as a human being, allow such a thing to happen!”

Lee Jae-won expressed his enthusiasm.

“That’s funny.”

Seonwoo continued to speak as if it were funny.

“What’s so funny!”

“How can a person who couldn’t lift his heavy buttocks off even when the Danga was half-destroyed by the Demonic Cult would not be funny when he speaks so passionately for the well-being of Murim?”

Seonwoo continued to speak sarcastically.

When the Tang family was half-destroyed by the Demonic Cult, only escort troops were sent.

It was Cheonmu-maeng who did not even mention the word Jeongma Daejeon.

Seeing them put forward Moorim’s well-being and peace as a cause made me laugh.

What kind of shyness are you talking about such a thing when you realize the seriousness only after the faction faction in Shandong Province, your main base, was robbed?

“In the case of the Tang family, I felt the need to be more careful, so I couldn’t move recklessly. I never neglected or ignored it.”

At Seonwoo’s words, Jaewon Lee continued as if making an excuse.

“The leader is a contradictory person.”

“What!?”

Lee Jae-won slightly raised his voice and gave off a bad feeling.

“Didn’t a prudent human cause a great war with only circumstantial evidence?”

Seonwoo stared at Lee Jaewon with sharp eyes and continued.

“It’s not circumstantial, it’s certain! It means that the scene of the incident was full of demonic energy!”

“That’s what we call circumstantial. Confidence is a word that can only be uttered when you directly identify the culprit. How can you claim to be certain only by guessing when there are no eyewitnesses, let alone catching the culprit?”

Seonwoo began to bruise Lee Jaewon in a cold tone.

“You really don’t understand! How can you insist that the culprit is not the Demonic Cult when the evidence is so clear!

“Evidence is only Magi, so how can I believe it?”

“How can you deny the fact that Magi is the only and conclusive evidence?”

Lee Jae-won continued to speak with a frustrated expression on his face.

“It’s not only the Demonic Cult that mastered the magic arts, so how can you be so reckless?”

Seonwoo refuted as if he would not lose.

“Where else besides the Demonic Cult has mastered magic arts powerful enough to destroy countless families at once!”

“That’s also prejudice and circumstantial. That means it can’t be used as evidence.”

“It’s really strange to hear it.”

“What do you mean?”

“From the perspective of this Lord, you appear to be supporting the Demonic Cult.”

Lee Jae-won looked at Seon-woo with a suspicious look and asked.

“What nonsense is that?”

Seonwoo asked him with a puzzled look on his face.

“Isn’t it strange? Everyone claims that the culprit is the Demonic Cult, but I’m the only one claiming that it’s not Barak Barak.”

“I’m just claiming that there is no conclusive evidence.”

“How many times have I not told you that demonic energy is proof of that?”

“The Lord of the Rings is truly speechless. Didn’t I say that was just a matter of circumstances?”

“No, how can you defend the Demonic Cult like that!”

Hearing Jaewon’s words, Seonwu frowned.

He kept repeating the same thing over and over again without answering his question properly.

In addition, whenever he was at a loss for words, he would criticize him for defending the Demonic Cult.

‘This bastard really looks like a dog.’

Seonwoo felt his annoyance welling up.

Who is the hardest person in the world to have an argument with?

Who is good at speaking?

A highly educated person?’

Who knows a lot?

Who has learned to debate professionally?

Who has been in politics for decades?

Not all.

The hardest person to deal with was the one who closed his ears and spoke only as he liked.

It was impossible for this type of person to have an argument because they only talked about what they wanted to say after giving up on listening.

Just like Jaewon Lee in front of his eyes.

‘It’s meaningless anymore.’

Sunwoo thought.

It’s pointless to be here any longer.

Probably unless one of the two is stubborn

You will repeat the same words endlessly.

That was a specification.

“I think my opinion has been fully conveyed. I’ll just go back.”

“Are you running away now?”

“There is no point in arguing any further.”

“I haven’t heard from you yet that the main lord has confirmed that he will join the battle.”

“I will not participate in the war. Please let me know that.”

“I don’t understand.”

“It’s not my part-time job whether the Lord agrees or not. I just move according to what I feel and think.”

Seonwoo continued to speak while glaring at Lee Jaewon with a dignified gaze.

“If you refuse here, many Murim people will point fingers at you and criticize you. Can you handle that?”

“If the accusations were enough to intimidate me, I wouldn’t even say it.”

Sunwoo continued with his sharp eyes twinkling.

He then turned back toward the dorm.

Jerk jerk jerk

And he started walking.

With a very proud gait.

Lee Jae-won carefully watched Seon-woo’s back.

‘Haa… Bastard… Pretending to be fucking cool. Did you get a cold sore?’

And then she slightly raised her eyebrows.

It was because I didn’t like Sunwoo’s imposing attitude.

‘Let’s see if your bastard can do that even if rumors spread like shit.’

Jaewon Lee thought.

He said that he would take this opportunity to bury Jang Sun-woo socially.

***********

After the Cheonmu-maeng declared the Jeongma War

There was an unknown tension in the midfield Moorim.

It’s like holding an explosive in your hand that you don’t know when it will explode.

In the meantime, a rumor started to spread in the middle plain.

It was a rumor about Jang Seon-woo, the swordsman.

[The swordsman declared his absence from the Jeongma War.]

This rumor, which was short but intense, came as a considerable shock to the Moorim people who lived their days in tension.

Who is the Sword God?

Wasn’t he the young hero of Moorim who prevented the death of Dangga-hyeol in the past with a heroic move and the strongest warrior who had newly ascended to the throne as the first man in the world by defeating Lee Jae-won, the lord of heaven?

How can he declare that he will not participate in the Great War?

Those who heard the rumors for the first time waved their hands if the rumors were nonsensical.

It was because the rumor that he was absent from the Jeongma Daejeon was considered nonsense.

Although he was excommunicated, Jang Sun-woo was clearly a soldier of a political faction based on Jeonggong.

How could such a person not participate in the war to wipe out the Demonic Cult?

However, it wasn’t long before it was revealed that the rumor was true.

It was because the Cheon Mu Maeng made an official announcement that the rumors were true.

And the people of the world were astonished when they found out that the rumor was true.

Because he hadn’t predicted at all that he would not participate in the war.

And that astonishment soon turned into anger.

It was because I thought that I was the only one who committed a foolish thing to fall for while everyone was trying to sacrifice for the peace and well-being of Moorim.

That is also the author who is said to be the best in the world.

The voices criticizing Jang Seon-woo began to grow louder here and there.

Because I didn’t understand what he was doing and he didn’t want to understand.

It was about the time when I was full of anger toward him.

Then another frightening rumor began to come.

It was a rumor that Jang Seon-woo supported the Demonic Cult.

Rumors spread that he declared his non-participation in defense of the Demonic Cult to the leaders and leaders who visited to persuade him.

Upon hearing the rumors, the people of the world began to rage more fiercely.

It was because of the enmity against Seonwu, who declared that he would not attend in defense of the ugliest Demonic Cult.

Soon, the reputation of Jang Seon-woo in Moorim continued to decline vertically and became an object of ridicule.

********

In front of the residence

“Explain it!”

“Jang Seon-wu should explain his remarks in favor of the Demonic Cult!”

“We want clarification!”

“If you are indeed a member of the political faction, come out of the room immediately and explain!”

“Demand the truth from Jang Sun-woo!”

In front of the dwelling, many people began to shout loudly.

They were the Murim people who gathered in anger when they heard that Jang Sun-woo was not participating in the Jeongma Daejeon and that he had defended the Demonic Cult.

They all had angry faces.

It seemed that Jang Seon-woo’s behavior had accumulated anger.

“How can a person who is said to be a member of the political faction support the Demonic Cult!

A man with a savage impression shouted with an angry expression on his face.

“Apologize! Apologize!”

“Innumerable victims of the bloodshed in Shandong must be cursing you in the afterlife! How can you say such irresponsible and terrible words! Explain what you said right away!”

They shouted and called for Seonwoo to leave the place.

With a lot of vicious momentum.

“Think of the victims as your siblings and parents! Can you defend the Demonic Cult like you are now?

“That’s right! That’s right! He’s no different from a magician!”

“Jang Seon-woo! Come out right now! Come out and see that sinful face! You reckless bastard!”

“Come out! Come out!”

People sympathized with the man’s words and started calling for Jang Seon-wu.

There seemed to be no fear on their faces.

“Until you come out and apologize, we won’t move a single step! Jang Seon-woo! Hurry up and show yourself!”

“Reveal! Reveal!”

People’s voices began to rise higher and higher.
