Absolute Regression Chapter 231

Episode 231: There’s nothing worse than a bad life.

“Do you have any plans to kill Yalulhan?”

To Visain’s question, Geommugeuk shook his head.

“Not yet.”

Looking at the bewildered Visa, Geommugeuk said.

“Wouldn’t it be possible to make any serious plans without your permission?”

“Are you saying that if I give you my permission, you can come up with a plan that wasn’t there before?”

“It will happen.”

“You really are a helpless person.”

Even though he said that, Visain didn’t seem to be in a bad mood. Rather, he felt relieved after making the decision.

“Please just keep this in mind.”

Visain set one condition. Since he had already given permission, it was more of a request than a condition.

“You can kill the Oroesin Sword or the Bloody Wheel Kap, but you must not touch the Extreme Byeongdan. They are not Yalulhan’s personal servants. They are the best of the Byeongmaeng.”

According to the Cheonmasingyo, they are asking that the demon lords be left alone and that only the demon lord be killed. Losing Yalulhan alone would be a huge loss, but it was still an effort to minimize the loss.

“Okay.”

The sword dance was gladly accepted.

Visain sighed.

“I don’t know what I’m doing. If this goes wrong, not only will I be killed by Yalulhan, I could be kicked out of my position as successor right away.”

“If you are kicked out, come to me. I will accept you.”

“If I die, I’ll die. I won’t go there.”

The ugly visage of the visage was distorted. Geommu-geuk could tell. He was smiling pleasantly. It was an emotion that could never be known unless you really looked at him closely.

“If there’s anything I can do for you, just let me know. I’ll be having lunch at that inn for the time being.”

“Thank you.”

So Visain left there first.

The sword dance troupe stayed there for a long time, looking up at the night view of the Apostolic Alliance and the night sky before leaving.

After returning to Anga, I immediately gathered Gowol, Geukak Soma, and the leader of Pungcheon together.

“The successor of the Apostle Alliance, Bisain, has promised to take care of the finishing touches. Now all we have to do is kill Yalulhan.”

Everyone was surprised by what I said.

“How on earth did you change his mind?”

Not only the leader of the Fengchun cult who asked the question, but even the evil Soma and Gowol looked at me with surprised eyes. I thought it would take time to persuade them, but I succeeded in persuading them very quickly.

“Wouldn’t there be something in common between the young successors?”

“You really are… … .”

Not knowing what to say, the leader of the Pungcheon Church shook his head.

“It’s good news that Visain has accepted your request, but there’s also bad news. We’ve learned of more of Yalulhan’s subordinates.”

I already knew that Hyulryun Gap was Yeolhan’s subordinate.

“The new person I met was Oroeshin Sword.”

Everyone was shocked at the word Oroesin Sword.

The new leader of the Pungcheon sect also remembered him.

“Isn’t he the one who once caused a stir in the martial arts world? He was even branded a public enemy in the martial arts world.”

“That’s right. That’s him.”

“I thought you were dead, but you were hiding in the shadow of Yalulhan.”

Even Blood Wheel Calamity was not an easy opponent to deal with, but Oroeshin Sword was one level above him in skill.

At that moment, the leader of the Pungcheon Church suddenly asked as if he had remembered.

“Then why don’t we just kill them when they’re alone? They’re people too, so they won’t always be around.”

Everyone’s eyes were on me. All three of them felt the same way, but there was a reason why they couldn’t.

“As I said, once Yalulhan dies, the one who killed him will become a criminal.”

Gowol was the first to notice my intentions.

“You’re worried that they’ll take revenge on the Visans.”

I nodded.

“I don’t know what kind of relationship they have. Whether they’re looking for revenge or just leaving. But if they’re thinking of revenge, even by a single chance, Bisain will definitely die.”

“I understand clearly why Visain came forward to help Confucius.”

It was said that even Visain would have noticed the heart that was thinking of him.

The leader of the Pungcheon sect stepped forward again.

“I’ll help with this too.”

I never expected that he would step forward to help with this.

“Are you sure?”

“I guess I should help, even if it’s embarrassing.”

It meant that he was ashamed of having asked if it was okay to just kill Yalulhan without considering that Visan might be subject to revenge.

But I could tell that it was just an excuse and that he was just there to help me.

“Isn’t this opponent too much for two people to deal with? Why? Is my skill not good enough?”

“If you don’t trust your abilities, who can you trust? However, you have more important things to do.”

“What’s going on?”

“Please protect the military as you have done so far.”

My gaze turned to Gowol.

“If our side is exposed even once, the military may be in danger. In that case, the leader must protect them. Up until now, I have never worried about the military because the leader has been here.”

“Are you okay?”

“Because I have Soma-sama.”

My gaze turned to the evil Soma who had been quietly listening until then. In this burdensome situation, the evil Soma smiled and said.

“Just trust me.”

“Yes. I will only trust you, Soma-sama.”

This was what was really on my mind at that moment.

Soma, just trust me. I will never kill you under any circumstances.

This is my response to the favor he has shown me.

General Sima Ming was in the operations command room.

A top secret operation related to the Sword Dance was underway here, known to be safer than the Cheonmajeon.

Sima Ming had been tense ever since Jianwuji left the school. If something happened, he had to quickly support Jianwuji, and he had to control his relationship with the Sado Alliance so that it would not lead to war. And he had to keep these moves from being discovered by the Sado Alliance.

So far, Geommugeuk has been performing his duties much better than he thought.

When the Jisaeng, the Aecha, and even the Yeobulgae were eliminated without revealing their true identities, the chief military officer of Tongcheon-gak said this.

“If I were a soldier of Yalulhan… … I would have been defeated without being able to move.”

I couldn’t tell him that it wasn’t Sima Ming. I felt like I couldn’t even be sure myself.

“Gowol’s abilities are extraordinary. The information network he built in the Central Plains was also designed to complement our Tongcheon Pavilion without overlapping with it.”

“I’m thinking about this even after Lee Gongja becomes a Heavenly Horse.”

“He’s painting a really big picture.”

Just as the Sword Dance Theater was pushing forward with a new magic, I thought that if Go-wol took his place, Tongcheon-gak would also become a new Tongcheon-gak.

And today a new report came in.

The senior military officer entered Sima Ming’s office with a serious expression on his face.

“The science and engineering department has requested information about one person.”

“Who is it?”

The senior soldier took a deep breath and reported, expressing in advance how surprised he was.

“It’s the Oroesin Sword.”

Sima Ming suddenly got up from his seat.

“Yalyuhan is even bringing the Oroeshin sword.”

It was already known that Hyulryun Gyeop was under Yalulhan’s command. But there was also Oroeshin Sword?

“From the wild and bloody kalpa to the Oroishin sword. Can two people deal with them all?”

“I don’t think it’s easy.”

“What are the chances of this operation succeeding?”

“I expected it to be a death sentence when I didn’t know about the existence of the Oroeshin Sword.”

It was a probability analyzed by Tongcheon-gak. Although the exact level of the swordsmanship of the swordsmanship was unknown, it was the result of an analysis based on the various things he had done so far.

“But if we assume that the Oroesin Sword is helping Yalulhan, I expect it to fall apart. I will report back as soon as I have a detailed analysis.”

“This is Halira.”

The analysis of the success rate of the Tongcheon-gak operation was almost accurate. This figure should be considered a failure.

“If by any chance a master other than Oroesin Sword appears, it may not be possible to do the job.”

It was no exaggeration. Sima Ming realized once again that this was no ordinary matter.

“Send us all the information we have regarding the Oroeshin Sword.”

“All right.”

Sima Ming turned around and asked the senior soldier who was about to leave.

“What do you think?”

“yes?”

“What do you think the chances of success are?”

“I am…….”

He was the soldier who knew the most about the sword dance among his subordinates. After hesitating for a long time to answer, he gave an unexpected figure.

“I see it as half and half.”

Sima Ming was shocked.

“This and that, there’s such a difference.”

“This is my emotional analysis.”

“Doesn’t that mean that the original analysis is a mess?”

“No, it’s just my feeling.”

Sima Ming doggedly pursued the bewildered senior military officer.

“Why is there a discount?”

The senior military officer said.

“Aren’t there people in this world who don’t respond to analysis? I think that people with engineering backgrounds are like that.”

Before another barrage of questions could be fired, the senior military officer quickly bowed and retreated.

Sima Ming stood up from his seat to gather his report to report to Tian Ma. Yes, that is correct. The Geomwu Geuk I have seen so far is a person who cannot be explained by numbers.

The same goes for Cheonma Geomwoojin, who allowed this to happen. Thinking that perhaps the most similar thing between the two was that they were both unable to be analyzed, Sima Myeong headed to Cheonmajeon.

* * *

Go-wol racked his brain to plan a strategy.

This time I didn’t tell him to enjoy the situation. This time I had to plan properly and stick to it.

While Go-wol planned the operation, we each had our own time.

After the evil Soma put up white wallpaper in his room, he started practicing while looking at it, and I got absorbed in martial arts training in the backyard.

In this fight, I will have to show all my skills. It will not be an easy fight, but I will definitely eliminate Yalulhan. I have something to say to his dying ear. That is why I have to give the person who has been obsessed with revenge for so long and has never been able to live his life, the rest of his life, a life of peace.

I was practicing martial arts in the backyard when someone spoke from behind me.

“You work so hard, how can I slack off?”

When I looked back, I saw the leader of the Pungcheon sect walking towards me.

“Go-wol kept nagging me so much that I got kicked out. The Confucius is still sweating, what are you doing?”

“Since you’ve come here, let’s practice together. You’ve lost weight recently, so the leader looks more and more handsome.”

“okay?”

The leader of the Pungcheon Church made a cheerful expression. While he was at it, he said one more pleasant word.

“I bet you had quite a few women following you around when you were young, didn’t you?”

“Well, the line following me was a bit long.”

The leader of the Fengchun sect clenched his chin with a smug expression. Judging from the thick flesh under his chin, he still had a long way to go.

“You have to regain the popularity you had back then.”

“How can that be easy when you get older?”

“If you cultivate and make your physical age ten years younger, you will go back ten years. If you make your physical age twenty years younger, you will go back twenty years.”

The leader of the Pungcheon sect stared at me intently.

“You’re just trying to get people excited with nothing.”

“How could it be nothing but a matter of regaining youth? Please show me! How can we know the future? The leader will transform into a young man of twenty years. When I first met the leader, did I think we would be having this conversation here?”

“That’s true. You’ve turned my monotonous life upside down.”

“So, do you regret it?”

After thinking about it for a moment, the leader of the Pungcheon Church shook his head.

“If I were a little younger, I might have regretted it. But now I know. There’s nothing worse than living a life of regret than living a life of mistakes.”

It had been a long time since I had a serious conversation with him since he always teased me.

“When I was a pastor, I thought that position was a great position.”

Wheeeeeeeeing.

A sandstorm blew. The leader of the Fengchun Church opened the space-time transfer technique and took me into a new landscape. In the distance, I could see the magnificent appearance of the Fengchun Church.

“To be honest, I thought about it several times a day when I was at the top. I am the king of the outside world. Many people will envy me. Back then, even the sand in my mouth tasted sweet as candy.”

His gaze turned to me.

“Now that I realize that it was all useless, I have no regrets.”

“You are wonderful.”

“It’s great. But it’s not like I’m better now than I was then.”

“It’s better.”

“Better? In what way?”

“Aren’t there people who look at the leader straight?”

In the air, our gazes met with those of the leader of the Pungcheon sect.

He said, shaking his head.

“You traded this look for that! I’ll go down in the history of martial arts as the biggest fool.”

“I will go down as someone who made the greatest choice in the history of martial arts.”

The leader of the Fengchun Church laughed. I will keep telling him. His decision was valuable. What makes people suffer is not the sacrifices made for that decision. It is that no one knows that. At least in my relationship, I will not make him feel that kind of loss.

The leader of the Pungcheon sect walked slowly.

I followed him through the sandy wasteland.

“Have you ever asked that before?”

There was another reason why the leader of the Fengchun cult used the space-time transfer technique today. The leader of the Fengchun cult brought up something he had forgotten about.

“Can the time flowing through space-time transfer be different from the time in reality?”
