Chapter 78 – Chapter 6-Cheonki

‘Does it like hanging out with other people…’

Come to think of it, I remembered that I seemed to be afraid of being in a situation where I was alone.

For example, work on board.

At the time, I thought I was scared because the situation was dangerous, but now that I think about it, I seem to feel a great fear of being left alone without anyone knowing the situation around me.

More than normal people.

‘..Still, I have to keep my distance after I go back.’

Even if it’s unavoidable when it’s just the two of us like now, since he originally lived in Seomseo, there must be acquaintances there.

After that, you won’t have to worry.

No matter how much you love him, it’s not good to be overprotective.

Because he is an adult too.

… Although he looked like a boy, let alone an adult, if you look at his appearance.

Judging my age by my appearance was not something I would do, even if other people didn’t know.

It’s something I’ve already gotten used to thanks to my old comrades.

“I know this may be a rude question, but is there a reason you cover up your appearance?”

He said, looking at his invisible face hidden behind the hat, wrapped in mysterious darkness.

A mysterious appearance like this might offend you, but strangely, it didn’t feel special.

Just to the extent that I agree with ‘that’s right’.

He wondered where he got such bloody clothes, but he wondered if there was a reason why he had to hide his appearance while using such a mysterious method.

It was not at all an appearance that would be embarrassing to show to others from the standpoint of knowing the appearance inside it.

“There’s no particular reason. It’s just that my face looks ugly.. Ah.”

Hearing his words cut off in the middle, a question popped up in my head.

You look ugly If he had an ugly appearance, everyone in this middle court would become an ugly man and an ugly woman.

– Flutter flutter

“Come to think of it, you already know my face, right?”

He held the hat in his hand and shook it slightly.

His ears seemed to catch a glimpse through the swinging hat.

“Then this excuse is useless. Originally, it was an excuse mainly used for guests.”

“..Did you make an excuse that you covered your face because it was ugly?”

“Yes. To be honest, it’s the most comfortable reason. There are not many people who doubt it. How can they say that I live under cover because I’m ugly?”

“Hmm..”

It seemed so.

They say that he covers his face because he is ugly, but what can he say about it?

“Then is there a real reason?”

“Yes. There was a prophecy from Master.”

“Prophecy?”

“Cover your face when you go around. You’ll be in big trouble later because of that face. You said this.”

“Hmm..”

You will be angry because of your face.

At least it didn’t seem like a problem to me.

‘No, this is his teacher. I must have seen something I didn’t know.’

Although I am a Taoist, I decided to think that there must be something I do not know, as I have not been professionally trained in reading the heavenly spirit.

He was the one who taught him how to read the heavenly flag, so he must have had a purpose.

“I see… I’m sorry.”

“Ah. It’s okay. I don’t really care.”

It was an apology for unwillingly seeing his face during the treatment (?) Process in the past.

When I thought of that time, the scene of that moment kept popping up in my head.

It was hard to believe that she was an adult, and her delicate and fragile body and the face that matched it did not leave her mind.

‘..Whoa.’

She had to pinch her nose herself to restrain herself for a moment.

Her mental discipline must have been sufficient, but she felt that her mind was getting harder and harder to control after meeting him.

“How can I show you again?”

The words he heard in that state almost broke his self-control for a moment.

“Is that okay?”

“Well, you’ve already seen it. It’s only the two of us, so is it meaningful to go around covering it? It’s not like your face wears out just by looking at it, and it’s not like you’ve smeared it with honey.”

It won’t wear out just by looking at it, but I couldn’t completely agree with the statement that it was covered with honey.

Because she had a similar attraction to him.

Like a bee flying to a flower to deliver honey, his face had a charm that attracted the opposite sex.

‘..Ah. Did this mean it?’

It was only then that he could somewhat understand what his master had said.

Perhaps this was the meaning.

It means that if he went around with his face exposed, he would have been caught in considerable trouble.

In fact, when he met So-yeon, he wasn’t covering his face…

‘…He must be a wise man.’

Inwardly, he paid respect to his teacher, whose name he did not even know.

“So, can I show you? If you want to see it, tell me. It’s my first time talking to someone who knows my face outside.”

“..Is there anyone other than me who has seen your face?”

“I remember that I probably don’t have one. Oh, there is someone who promised to show me.”

-Startle

Promise to show your face

Even just hearing the words, it was an ominous echo that could be heard somewhere.

It’s me, because I couldn’t help but force myself to look at his face, and he didn’t intend to show it to me.

“Did you mean that promise?”

“Yes. He’s a friend who helped me a lot. Originally, I was going to show him after I came back from my trip to Anhui, but suddenly the situation turned into this.”

“You mean ‘friend’?”

“Yes. My friend. I must have been very curious about your face because I always covered it up.”

“Anyway, it’s not a woman.”

When I tried to ask if the friend was a woman, she stopped.

What kind of ugly jealousy is this?

If he said he was a friend, he would have been a friend, but it wasn’t good to try to misunderstand him alone.

-Rumble

“The weather is strange today. The weather is clear, but I keep hearing thunder from somewhere…”

“..I guess so.”

Then thunder was heard outside.

The weather outside was sunny without a single cloud, but the sound of thunder.

The word lightning in the dry sky came to mind.

‘..It reminds me of the past.’

Although they went through a lot of friction, they still had their backs to each other.

[There are so many dirty things that are not even this fucking bug..!]

[…

The guru of Kunlun was too harsh and had frequent frictions with me, but he was still a valuable comrade.

We all knew that he was a person who said so but surprisingly had a soft heart.

Maybe that’s why her toxic trust made fun of her often.

When he makes fun of her, in her rage she draws her sword.. He gestures at her and runs away..

It was one of the energies that I could sometimes feel during the fierce war.

Although she herself did not like to make herself the laughing stock of us.

-Rumble!

Okay. It was this lightning sound.

If you look there when this sounds on her battlefield, you will find her clad in her blue thunderbolt..

“..Huh?”

“..Over there suddenly a cloud..”

I looked up at the sky and saw familiar clouds and blue lightning.

A symbol of hers that she hadn’t seen since the end of the war.

“..Yeosocheon?”

I felt a familiar energy in the clouds.

The energy of comrades, almost unchanged from 20 years ago.

I knew she was there.

But with her aura

-Startle

I could feel a tremendous amount of hostility.

And where the hostility goes…

“Hee, hee…”

He was

The moment I realized that fact, I moved quickly.

I sent him to the back of the carriage as much as possible with the empty air, and at the same time, I came out and drew my sword.

When I came out, she was already right in front of her, engulfed by her blue lightning.

Behind her, the trail of blue lightning that extended to the clouds.

It’s been a long time since I met a comrade, but in the current situation, there was no need to talk to each other.

Unmanned people have unmanned methods.

-Seueueu

I swung my sword towards the blue light sword that kept the speed of lightning.

A separate herb diet was not required.

A state where the essence of enlightenment is already melted into each sword that she or I wield.

It is a state where you are no longer tied to the form of herbivore.

-Chaeeng

Swords collided with swords, and a clear sword spread.

And around it

-Kwajijijik!!!!

Blue lightning was burning plum blossom incense.

-Kagagak

“It’s been a while, swordsman!! You haven’t aged at all in the meantime!”

“Then you… You’ve gotten younger!”

– Kaang!

He swung her sword and knocked her down.

She, too, landed lightly as she expected.

“It’s been a while. How many years? Has it been about 15 years?”

“More than 20 years have passed.”

“Aha. Has it been that long since you’ve already cleaned up those mosquitoes?

20 years.

It was obviously a long time, but neither of us had aged at all.

“Yes. How have you been?”

“Ahaha, of course we’ve been doing well. There’s been so much going on that I’d like to tell you all about it if I could.”

Her voice and tone had not changed much from then, but for some reason, I could feel the fatigue in her voice.

‘..She tired of her?’

She was the one who was brisk even when she was fighting for three days and nights without sleeping.

How tired she is. What the hell happened in between?

“But why are you here?”

But more important than that was the present.

Grabbing her sword, he showed her wariness towards her.

It was after confirming that she harbored hostility toward him behind me.

No matter how much of her she was, she couldn’t let him wield her sword.

And the reason she revealed baffled me.

“Isn’t it said that there is a cheeky fortune teller who dared to scorn the God of Heaven and Earth?”

“…”

“How dare you insult him… I want to bury that sin with death, but I endured it because he only wanted a simple ‘education’.”

“What is that…”

She couldn’t help but be embarrassed when she saw her talking about her sky and her heavenly and earthly deities as if they had her own separate personality.

She often uses descriptions such as ‘Heaven ~’ and ‘Heaven and Earth God ~’, but they are only concepts after all.

But she’s like…

She was describing it like a god.
