Chapter 1404 – [Journey to Eden]

The teacher is busy taking care of the Yeokcheonhoe bastards, but there was one thing she had no choice but to make time for, and that was teaching the Heavenly Demon Art.

As much as that was one of the reasons why the religious leader lacked legitimacy, he had to learn. There will be another problem later

“Air who has already reached the state, I just need to teach him the tricks. Maybe that’s why he learned it easily.”

“Because if you’re up there, you’ll see something.”

Thanks to this, he did not have to stay very long. The Heavenly Demon has a place to return to.

Honestly, it would be irresponsible to leave behind the things that made the country over there. If the Heavenly Demon falls out of the Kingdom of the Gods of the Sun and Moon, it will be a mess.

Russia and China’s independent countries will be aiming for the Sun Moon God…… It’s a mess again. I don’t intend to intervene, so a lot of people will die. Surprisingly stable now, the Heavenly Demon was preventing a war from breaking out.

However, when the Heavenly Demon was said to be returning, the priest showed a sad expression and dissuaded him. From his point of view, it meant that his parents were leaving, so he had no choice but to do so.

“Are you saying you’re going to die over there?”

“Yes, there is a country that I must rule over there as well. I will spread the doctrine of the Ilwol Gods over there.”

“But it’s okay to do it here. Others welcome Master’s return and expect that he will ascend to the highest position again.”

“Isn’t that because Yuni is with you?”

“But I…”

“You are fully qualified as a religious leader. So you can have a little more confidence. In front of me as a disciple, but in front of others, you are the leader of the Ilwol Shinkyo and the best in the middle of the day.”

The ability of the leader can already be proved by the fact that he took care of the aftermath after the sudden disappearance of the Heavenly Demon after fighting the previous Nammandogung lord.

No, at least there is no such system where the vice-president takes over when the president dies, and the supreme commander-in-chief suddenly disappeared, and he said that he was ruling the country without taking over and without causing a civil war.

With that level of force, there is no one to deal with in the midfield, and the political power is full. He was chosen by the Heavenly Demon, but he was a great ruler and warrior.

As the Great Demon King, even if I look at it, it’s a passing grade. There are few monarchs better than me, but there are plenty of inferior ones.

“You are the one I accepted as a disciple, no one else. I believe in you.”

“Master…”

The Heavenly Demon hugged the leader and patted him on the back to encourage him.

If you look at him, the Heavenly Demon usually talks about the principal, but since he speaks honestly in front of his pupil, his speaking has shifted to the first person. Seeing that, I think I become more honest in front of my pupils.

He must be a disciple who has been raised for decades. A guy who never got married and never had children, took him in as a disciple and raised him, so he will be like a child.

“And I’m not leaving forever either. I’ll come often, so don’t worry too much”

“Yes, yes……. Master”

The teacher seemed to be somewhat confused. Looking at it, it doesn’t seem like the way the Heavenly Demon usually treats her.

But maybe he didn’t like it, a faint smile hung over his face.

“Master seems to have changed a lot.”

“Well, since the gender changed during the metamorphosis, it has to be that way.”

“No, it’s not a matter of gender, it’s something else. If it was the old master, he would have felt like he drew a line, but now it’s different. Of course, I like it better now.”

“You’re talking weird”

After talking with the Heavenly Demon, I had time to talk with the religious leader.

It would be nice to have the Heavenly Demon with you, but it seems that the leader has something to say personally. If you think about it, if it’s not the Heavenly Demon himself, there are probably only me and Eden who can tell me about the other world.

Moreover, before, I couldn’t properly talk about the problem when I was in reverse, and after that I couldn’t because I was busy taking care of the aftermath, so now is my chance.

Since then, it has become a time for me to have a sincere story as a man.

“How is Master from the other world doing?”

“I’m doing well. I’m busy running the country. Things are different over there, so even though I can’t do anything like conquering the midfield, I’ve become one of the most influential countries on the continent.”

“As expected, he is a teacher. Even in another world, I don’t think he would live normally.”

Well, if it weren’t for me and Shion, the earth would have long ago become the Heavenly Demon and Nawabari. Instead, it is highly likely that it ended there. If it wasn’t for us, how would we have moved to another dimension?

I and Shion told the Heavenly Demon to do it in moderation, so it ended up as the Sun Moon God. It wouldn’t have become a dystopia, but something is.

“But I heard that you are better than Master, how strong are you?”

“I don’t know the standard. If you ask me if I’m a master at all, it’s ambiguous to answer.”

“If you use Master as your standard?”

“I can’t win even if there are as many midfielders as there are heavenly horses”

“…………”

There was only astonishment and amazement in the eyes of the religious leader who looked at him in disbelief, but no doubt.

What he believes in is not me, but the Heavenly Demon. It’s not believing what I said, it’s believing the Heavenly Demon who said it was stronger than you. Because if I messed up, the Heavenly Demon would also mess up.

And it’s not even a lie. As long as the Heavenly Demon did not reach the rod, hundreds of millions or billions of dollars will go hook in the power Hankyu.

The majority of strong people in front of me have no meaning. Only a very small number of transcendentalists who have reached the realm can deal with me.

Furthermore, now that I am on the road, except for the absolute, there are few roads that can deal with me. It is not an ordinary rod, but only a special one among the rods.

It’s not boring to say that I can still aim for the top. It’s rather lonely when you reach the peak.

“That’s a good thing. Having someone much stronger than you proves that you have a place to go. Wouldn’t it be better to climb higher and reach a higher level than to stand at the peak and be bored because there is nowhere else to climb?”

“……You might think so.”

“There’s nothing wrong with recognizing that you’re small. Don’t think too much of it.”

“Okay. By the way… What’s your relationship with Master?”

“You said we were friends before, but did you forget?”

“I heard that there are no friends between men and women.”

“Is there a saying like that here too? And that, can I go and tell you that you see your teacher as a woman?”

I want to know why the teacher is like this again, but in a way, I can’t help but be interested. If the person you thought was a father realized your gender identity one day and became a mother, but also brought a man along with you, it would be bland from the point of view of your child.

I’ve never had proper parents, so I’ll say it for sure, but if I have a stepmom or stepdad, then I think I’ll be pretty mindful.

“Anyway, we’re friends.”

“Ah, yes. I see.”

“What, why is the answer reading Korean books?”

“Anyway, thank you for taking care of our master.”

“He’s probably not someone who can’t take care of himself.”

I know roughly what the headmaster meant, but I and the Heavenly Demon are not in that relationship.

Uh, um…… To be honest, although it’s similar to a relationship between a man and a woman, we’re still friends. At least that’s what I think. I don’t know what the Heavenly Demon will think.

“Even if it’s not your words, he’s a friend, so he’ll take good care of you. So don’t worry.”

“Don’t you know what I mean by that?”

“Sometimes pretending not to notice is smart enough.

“Thank you for doing so”

“But why do you keep pushing your master to do that?”

“He doesn’t know the opposite sex. I’m not ignorant of women either, but he distanced himself from the opposite sex because of the punishment. In the first place, Master didn’t even know who to consider as the opposite sex.”

Gender identity is an important issue. I am reincarnated as a reincarnated person regardless of gender, so both men and women are applicable, but on the other hand, I am closer to the male side, but it is not that I did not have concerns about the gender issue.

Furthermore, even though the Heavenly Demon was born as a man, he also had a feminine side through preserving the naturalization, so it was ambiguous which one. My case is different.

Neither side was perfect, so I couldn’t think of either. After thinking so much, I eventually became a woman.

You can date men now, but not with normal men. The opponent is the Heavenly Demon, and in addition to that, isn’t the head of a country on Earth? Moreover, there is no tenure, and it is almost a life-time position.

It is also a problem to handle the heavenly horse, but there is a possibility of being used or kidnapped by someone beyond that. Therefore, an ordinary man cannot lead with the Heavenly Demon.

But I’m stronger than the Heavenly Demon, and even if it’s not as good as Shion and Eden, I’m not the kind of person who would throw away my woman…… No, why are you thinking about continuing?

“So please take good care of Master.”

“Don’t worry about that. Oh, and there’s a boy we brought named Yoo Sang-jin?”

“I heard from Master about that child.

“That’s right, we can’t take it, so we have to leave it. Take good care of us.”

“It seemed like he was on the verge of becoming a master at his peak. If he reached that level in just a few months, he would be a great talent because he has the talent.”

“I heard that it is recommended for Sura-Yamdae or something like that.”

“I think he’s a talented person. I don’t know his loyalty to the school, but he has a good personality. There are plenty of masters, but it’s hard to find someone with a good personality, so he’s a kid to look forward to in 10 years.”

“If you look at it like that, there won’t be any problems after we leave.”

Sangjin is a child who will grow up. What’s more, she has a good personality. From the position of the monarch, he was a child who could only benefit from being hired, let alone lost.

Unless, of course, the monarch does nothing but bullshit. If the next high priest is a madman, he’ll be a bitch even if he rebels, but I won’t talk about that. Since he is the disciple chosen by the Heavenly Demon, he will do well.

“Dad, what did you talk about with the principal?”

“Just in moderation”

“Didn’t you say that I was your sister?”

“Why are you my sister?!”

What is the real Eden family relationship like in your head?

Anyway, this Moorim trip is coming to an end soon. If there were more, there would be problems with life over there, so I had to go back soon.

However, rumors spread because we talked about going back separately, and there were people who stopped us. First of all, the Heavenly Demon is Taesang-gyo, so even if that’s the case, Eden can benefit from it in many ways.

Information collection through Gaia records, treatment with the essence of water is also possible, and externally, it is possible to use a thunder dragon.

He’s a great talent, so I’d like to keep him by my side. Especially those who value their lives will covet the essence of water. It proves that it can be frozen and stored for a long time, so it will be even more so.

“I still have to go. After vacation, Eden has to go to school too.”

“Half of the first year of high school has already passed. In two years, it will be the third year of high school.”

“I think you said it too early, but take good care of your CSAT”

“Gyaahiah, SAT, Gyaaa, ah ahhhhh!

Is it a high school student’s national rule to feel an allergic reaction to the college entrance exam? Hagisa, because I did too.

Anyway, I told Sangjin that we were going back. She said it normally, but when the time came, she put on a pretty heartbroken expression.

“Are you dying?”

“Yes, there’s something to do over there too. Since we’re the people who lived there in the first place, of course we have to go. We can’t stay here forever.”

“It is, but……”

“But it’s not like we’re completely separated. He’ll come back later.”

The first is hard, the second is easy. Because of Yeokcheonhoe, I couldn’t properly tour Moorim, so next time I come, I can look around more leisurely.

Perhaps at that time, the identity of the Heavenly Demon would be revealed, so it would be easier to walk around. Because here, the value of the name of the Heavenly Demon is higher than that of my name. Some assholes will take care of themselves.

Well, that’s how much you’ll get involved with those in power, but there must be a trade-off. The latter would be better then. There were so many people who flirted with Eden on this trip to Moorim.

“When are you planning to come next time?”

“Well, that’s not in the plan yet. But it’s not going to happen in just a few decades.”

“During this trip, I owed a great favor to Daehyeop and Priestess. I hope that next time I can repay that favor, even just a little bit.”

“We had fun too. It was good to meet good people”

What will Sangjin be like in 10 or 20 years?

It will grow up to become a charter. He will be excellent at martial arts, and thanks to the Heavenly Demon, he will have no problems with personal connections, so he will not have to worry about marriage.

I wonder if Sangjin will become the successor to the teacher later. But to do that, I have to learn the Heavenly Demon Art, but I don’t know if it’ll be okay. He doesn’t seem to be able to get used to it though. That’s what you’re going to worry about at that time.

“Um……Daehyup. I have a favor to ask of you.”

“Huh? What is it?”

“Can’t you just call Daehyeop ‘Father’ just once?”

Sangjin said he was an orphan without her parents since he was picked up from her rural village. No matter how smart and dignified you are for your age, in the end, a child is a child.

I think I need my parents in the middle of the day, but I think I’ve played the role of a father in the middle of the day. To be honest, I wouldn’t have done anything as a parent other than taking care of this and that while traveling….

Maybe it’s because Eden treats her like a little brother? Hmm.

“But can it be done once?”

“Don’t you have a place to return to? If I really treat you as a father, Daehyeop will definitely care about me. So once is enough.”

“I don’t really care, but if you think so… Do whatever you want.”

Soon after, Sangjin bowed to me. She is not a samurai rite for teachers, but a rite for three folds for her parents. I don’t think it’s as much bowing just because a number is entered, but in reality it’s just a matter of etiquette.

“Thank you for taking care of me, Father.”

“Okay, stay well until next time.”

Before she went back to the Heavenly Demon, she said goodbye to her acquaintances separately.

Originally, she had many acquaintances as she was from this side, so it took several days to say hello. I thought about that and went to say hello, so there was no problem with the schedule.

“I’m not a person I can’t see at all, but there’s a lot of talk”

“Maybe it’s because I wasn’t able to see you until you came.”

“It could be. Oh, did you say hello to Sangjin?”

“We did it separately before, why?”

“Yesterday, the child came to see me separately. He asked if I could call him ‘mother’ since it’s fine just once.”

“Uh……….”

She was a heavenly demon who hated being treated like a woman, but she had a smile on her lips. Far from being offended by Sangjin calling her mother, she seemed to like her.

No, but Sangjin said he was her father to me?

“It was a pretty bold remark. I didn’t know it when there were eyes to see, but when it was just the two of us, it was okay, so I allowed it.”

“Uh…That’s fine”

“Wait, what’s the reaction like? What’s wrong?”

“No, no problem. Why?”

“It’s rather strange to say that… Well, that’s okay.”

Sangjin is a high-level player. She doesn’t call at the same place, and while she does it separately, she makes me and her Heavenly Demon her husband and wife.

If she said that when she and I were together, we would have denied each other, but it happened separately. He noticed the ambiguous relationship between me and the Heavenly Demon and did it on purpose.

I knew she was a smart kid, but to be treated like this, she was being made fun of.

“He’s smart, he’s my little brother after all.”

“I understand why Eden called you little brother.”

Let’s keep the story of my being called father a secret.

Heavenly Demon, if you find out about that guy, get angry.
