Chapter 557 – Misalignment of Birth

When I had a headache or had a lot of random thoughts, I tried meditation as my own remedy.

It was only now that Lee Choa realized that he had simply closed his eyes.

This is the first time I have felt the sense of transparently observing the inside of my own body.

‘This is meditation… This is real meditation…’

The deep part of the lower abdomen that Roman said was the Danjeon.

The energies that had been wandering aimlessly throughout the body gathered in the danjeon as if they had found a place.

Roman left a trace and became a guide and designer of energy and began to create a home in Danjeon.

As we tried to make it as strong as possible, the process was slow enough to remind us of a turtle, but it wasn’t boring at all.

‘A space containing energy called inner energy. This place is described as a vessel.’

The words Roman uttered in passing are understood in an instant and are stuck in my mind.

The ears that are supposed to hear sound do not function properly.

Completely cutting off the outside world and sinking into pure silence and silence, Ichoa fell deeper into her mind.

‘This is my…’

After experiencing a state of nothingness for the first time in her life, a small and sturdy vessel was completed in Danjeon.

Perhaps thanks to this, there is a mysterious feeling that her spirit itself seems to have developed resistance.

‘What should I do now?’

As I want to go further, I vaguely feel that something is needed.

Even though I have memorized the direction in which I move my energy, it is still disappointing.

‘Gugyeol…!’

What Roman told me to memorize once the border construction is complete.

Ichoa, noticing that she needed to stretch her feet, finished her meditation and opened her eyes.

I saw Roman sitting right in front of me.

“You have taken a great first step.”

When Roman’s eyes met, he raised the corners of his mouth, saying he had a hard time.

“Thank you so much…”

It was only after she set her foot on the right path that Ichoa could feel it.

What dangerous acts she has committed under the plausible name of mystery.

I don’t have the physical evidence to show to my colleagues in the Special Forces Department or the talent to coherently explain the abstract sensations I feel throughout my body.

I clearly realized that the information Roman had given me was the truth.

“From now on, you can continue the meditation by adding more gugyeol. You can keep this.”

Roman stood up after giving the book Sumi Heavenly King Shinkong (須彌天王神功) to Lee Cho-ah.

Lee Choa quietly watched her and opened her mouth.

“Can you give me this precious book?”

“To begin with, I am not the owner of that military book. I was given it as a teaching material to teach.”

“···.”

Ichoa looked at her book out of curiosity.

Who on earth is this person who gives to himself like this through Roman?

“You are free to use it as a ramen base or sell it anywhere.”

“I will treasure it.”

Lee Choa hugged the book tightly in response to Roman’s light joke.

Rather than being fearful, the unknown favor approaches me warmly.

“Even if the book was lost and leaked in the first place, there would be very few people who would be able to learn it properly without help. There is a high probability that they would think of it as an advertisement for a meditation center or prayer center somewhere, let alone an attempt.”

“I guess so. Oh, if I take this book, you two…?”

Ichoa looked around at the rising figures, but Alice and Seria were not visible in her room.

“You two have already memorized everything, so you don’t have to worry. I even wrote it down separately, just in case.”

Alice achieved her goal in just one attempt, while Ceria completed it in three attempts.

Today, they decided to learn only the form of the mind method, so the two of them are taking a bath to straighten their hair in order to add their own interpretation to the phrase.

“Everyone is amazing.”

“It’s natural because you have something to do from the beginning. It’s not a matter of discussing talent, but the difference is the time invested, and the foundation built up.”

“···.”

Does this mean that we should not be discouraged by comparisons for no reason?

Even though it wasn’t direct, it was a strange tone that seemed to be soothing.

“Anyway, since you have continued to deal with the mysteries, you will quickly get the hang of and become accustomed to using the inner energy in the Danjeon.”

Ichoa clenched and unclenched her fists as Roman explained.

Maybe it was because I had gained experience with risky activities, but I felt like I could do it if I decided to do it right now.

“The remaining energy of the elixir has been mixed in, so the amount of internal energy will not be small. Next time, let’s learn how to use it properly by combining it with the herbal medicine of martial arts.”

“Is this the end for today then?”

Seeing Lee Cho-ah’s disappointed look as she asked if it was already over, Roman took out her cell phone and showed the time.

“It’s not efficient to rush and cram everything into your head. Plus, it’s quite late.”

“Oh?”

Looking at the time on my phone screen, it was already evening.

I didn’t know it was a room without a window.

Didn’t she just come from lunch and sit down here?

In Lee Cho-ah’s senses, it seemed like she had been practicing meditation for an hour, but it was such an absurd amount of time that it was hard to believe it even when she saw it with her own eyes.

“I know you’re busy, but I’m sorry for taking up your time…!”

Roman gave advice to Ichoa, who hurriedly got up from her seat and gathered her things.

“When you return, let’s read the nine words and lightly circulate them through the mind method.”

“Yes…!”

“And are you going to work tomorrow too?”

Lee Choa’s movements stopped at Roman’s question.

She continues her thoughts for a moment, making a bitter sound with her mouth, and then gives an answer.

“I think I’ll probably take a few days off.”

“Then I’ll contact you in the afternoon. Is that okay?”

“Yes. If you have plans, you can call me in the evening.”

Lee Cho-ah nods awkwardly.

Roman thanked her and added why she didn’t call earlier.

“I also want to invest a whole day to tell you. But…”

The voices of women heard outside the door.

Roman continued his explanation without hesitating the corners of his mouth that naturally rose just thinking about it.

“Even if everyone understands and makes concessions, I still have a desire to take proper care of my honeymoon time.”

Isn’t it a heartwarming story that you can’t help but understand?

Ichoa stiffened as she looked down at her voice, saying, “I understand.”

‘Honeymoon? What is this now…?’

Let Ichoa meet her gaze with confusion and puzzlement.

Roman smiled sheepishly and scratched his cheek.

“I thought it would be hard to pass by without mentioning it since we will continue to face it.”

*****

These days, Dokgorin rarely deviates from the hour.

I am immersed in sitting there and watching Lee Cho-ah shown in Roman’s image.

However, that doesn’t mean she doesn’t care about her surroundings in the name of being a guest.

– Look. If you draw a line like this on a dog, doesn’t it look quite similar to an animal called a raccoon?

– Hey, it’s true…!

Gleipnir and Rakshasa, who are lying face down on the floor and playing in a book, are also watching closely.

What is so funny is that laughter never ends in their conversation.

Tsuzuzuzu───.

A gap in the image opens and the sound of wings flapping is heard.

It was clear that she was a goddess just by looking at her, so Rin raised her voice over her drink.

“Are you here? You’re a little late today.”

“Yes.”

The goddess, with her wings folded, came up on time and sat down carefully next to Rin.

Even if there is no conversation of any kind, it is not an awkward atmosphere.

This may be because Rin’s senses and consciousness are focused on the scene reflected by Roman’s vision.

“God of War.”

“Hmm?”

I answer, but my gaze is not directed.

Dokgorin’s head is still fixed to one side.

Nevertheless, knowing that she was listening correctly, the goddess immediately continued talking.

“There is a problem that I would like to find an answer to by borrowing Mr. Musin’s insight.”

“Tell me.”

There was no need to tell her that she came back later than usual after masturbating while fingering her pussy in bed.

In order to get an answer, it is necessary to convey clear information.

The goddess was also troubled by her own condition and tried to come up with her own answer, but she was not sure and ended up looking for the god of war.

She didn’t know she was being affected because she was constantly in Roman’s mind.

Perhaps the situation obtained through her vision stimulates the desire that arose while consuming Roman’s vital energy.

“Even when I received regular treatment, I firmly believed that the sexual act itself with Roman was a restoration of strength.”

“I guess that’s right. It’s natural since you were born a creator. When you think about it that way, don’t you just say embarrassing things?”

Musin answered with a smile and filled his glass with the alcohol that Roman had given him as a gift.

“···I feel that this obvious thing is becoming more and more deviant.”

At the goddess’s words, the glass that was about to stick to Rin’s lips stopped.

“Tell me in detail.”

The god of war, who was only looking at the ceiling, moves his head and looks in the direction of the goddess.

Even though she was wearing an eye patch, I was sure she was making eye contact.

“Do you remember the first time you absorbed Roman’s energy?”

“Of course. Is it because she felt sexual desire?”

Because it was just once.

Mushin said that the sexual desire he felt for the first time would subside over time.

“I still feel my body getting hot and itchy periodically.”

“Huh…!”

“There is a bigger problem there.”

Rin remained silent and listened to her.

So the goddess raised her voice and made known her true concerns.

“There are times when the desire to simply taste Roman’s spirit is greater than to regain strength.”
