Absolute Regression Chapter 533

533
A single word from someone during the assassination.

“… … The most evil Soma!”

The ghosts could tell.

These are the real ignorant people, and the person in that room is the ultimate evil soma.

From such a long distance, and with the door closed, only the evil Soma could kill the Demon King in a single stroke.

The martial artists feared the Ma-Jone, but the ones they feared the most were the Poison King, the Sub-Hon Ma-Jone, and the most evil So-Ma.

Each person had a different reason for being afraid.

The Poison King was afraid that he would be massacred without being able to raise a hand no matter how many would attack him, and the Sub-Hon-Ma-Jon was afraid that he might end up dying while stabbing his comrades against his will.

These two demons were feared more by the righteous than by the Saphas. It was not death itself that was feared, but the fear that arose from the process of it being so helpless.

On the other hand, the evil Soma was more feared by the evildoers of Sapa. They knew very well how terrible they were capable of doing. However, the evil Soma was the pinnacle of evil, a being named the evil.

As if they had made a promise, the three demons simultaneously flew towards the entrance. They ran away without looking back.

Whoosh!

Another gust of wind blew in.

A single gust of wind follows them, and since there are three people running away, I thought it was going to kill only one of them.

Choaaaah!

At the last moment, the wind split into three strands.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Three of the dead men were lying on the floor with their necks, heads, and hearts pierced.

One of the guards pointed to the door again.

“……excuse me!”

Everyone’s eyes were still on the closed door. It was surprising that they had hit the target without looking, and it was also surprising that a single gust of wind split at the last moment.

But the most surprising fact is!

There was still one hole.

He killed three people by sending out a gust of wind again through the hole where he had killed the previous Gwisaldaeju. In other words, he flew around chasing after them.

They felt helpless and scared at the same time. It felt like the desire to grit their teeth and live desperately had been extinguished.

Originally, it was the emotion that the other person should have felt towards them. It was the fear that the gisaengs and guests who had to die here should have felt.

Ugh.

At that moment, all the guests in the room stood up from their seats.

The terrified ghosts had to experience a new fear. The faceless guests rose from their seats and pointed their fingers at them all at once.

“What the heck!”

As a signal to someone’s desperate swearing.

Shhh shhh shhh shhh shhh shhh shhh shhh shhh!

The wind blew towards them from all sides.

Lines woven like spider webs.

This pouring wind was the evil shadow finger, a wind that the ignorant people were familiar with. If you become the official successor, you will learn the bloody finger of the extremely evil soma.

The maskless guests who came here today were also skilled in the evil song. That was why the spiritless demons were unable to block their attacks pouring in from all directions.

Thud th …!

All the remaining ghosts fell down with holes all over their bodies like hedgehogs.

It was the moment when the infamous contract ronin Guisaldae, made up of former assassins, disappeared from the world.

Only then did the last door, which had been closed, slowly begin to open.

There sat Cheonhwaruju, the target of the demons today.

Still, she exuded a strange aura that only she could sense. A vertigo that seemed to see through people’s fate flowed through her calm eyes.

There was a person sitting next to her who was the complete opposite of her, but who got along well with her.

The extremely evil Soma with a white smile.

There are many masks in this space, but the one next to Cheonhwaruju shows an overwhelming presence.

His eyes had become deeper than before, and his martial arts skills had improved to a higher level.

The bloodletting paper that was shown earlier is not the bloodletting paper of the past.

Originally it was a single stream, but now it can be divided into several branches.

My internal energy has greatly improved thanks to the Mannyeonseolsam that Geommugeuk gave me, and the bigger reason is that I have recently had a change in my state of mind.

In his room, which had nothing but white walls, a bed, a desk, and a chair were placed.

Life must change for martial arts to change.

He too was subject to this great principle of ignorance.

Not only Hyulangji, but also another Dokmunmu-gong, Ma-geuk-gwang-bok-jang, was showing a different appearance than before.

Cheonhwaruju poured alcohol into the glass of the evil soma. Although he would not take off his mask and drink alcohol in a place like this, it was an action that was more meaningful because he did so.

Because she was the only woman who poured alcohol for the evil Soma.

“It must smell like blood.”

At the words of the evil soma, Cheonhwaruju smiled and said.

“The smell of blood is quickly washed away by the scent of women.”

How could the evil Soma not know?

In the world of martial arts, the more dangerous smell is not the smell of blood, but the smell of women’s wrath.

Cheonhwaruju ordered everyone who was upstairs to come down.

All the gisaengs and people working in the kiln came downstairs.

Before removing the body, Cheonhwaruju first expressed his gratitude.

Cheonhwaruju rose from her seat and stepped forward. She stood in front of the evil soma and bowed respectfully. Very few people knew about the relationship between the two, so this was a very public situation.

“I will never forget the grace that Amazon gave me.”

The courtesans who came down stood in a circle and bowed to the evil spirit and the masked guests on all sides.

“Thank you for saving my life.”

If the evil Soma hadn’t come, everyone here would have died.

The evil Soma simply nodded his head once.

“Get rid of the body.”

At the order of Cheonhwaruju, the men working at the kiln began to remove the corpses. The kisaengs brought water buckets and rags and began to wipe away the blood. It was understandable to be scared, but the kisaengs of the main troop, who had been through all kinds of hardships, were courageous.

The evil Soma poured her a glass of alcohol.

After drinking, Cheonhwaruju spoke softly so that only the evil Soma could hear.

“Thank you, brother.”

“I was able to come because the leader of the sect gave me a message. I will express my thanks when the leader of the sect comes.”

Cheonhwaruju said with a smile.

“But the one who came running and saved me was not the leader, but my older brother.”

The two eyes in the eye sockets smiled.

Of course, I was grateful for the sword dance. How could I not be grateful for the message that saved my life? I just said that to express my gratitude to the evil soma.

Is that the only reason why I am thankful for the sword dance?

The gaze of the evil Soma looking at him changed. It didn’t mean that he had become more affectionate. He could tell from his gaze that the evil Soma himself had changed.

She felt that the change was changing the fate of the evil Soma. The change did not feel bad at all.

“If they’re mobilizing the ghost squad, that means they’ve messed with some really rich guys.”

At the words of the evil soma, Cheonhwaruju nodded quietly.

She was the one who had recently continued to expand Cheonhwaru throughout the central region. At the same time, she had also trained quick-witted and smart gisaengs.

It was not yet known whether this incident was caused by the expansion of Cheonhwaru or by the information obtained by Bihwa. They would have to wait until Chohee arrived to find out.

“I hope the young sect leader is okay?”

The evil Soma nodded.

“You don’t have to worry at all.”

The journey said with a smile. She took care of her man’s pride and morale until the end.

“Isn’t this the one that I have no worries about at all?”

In the meantime, all the bodies were removed and all the blood was wiped away.

All the gisaengs and workers went upstairs.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The doors of all the brothels began to close one after another.

The door to the evil soma that was opened at the end has closed at the end.

As if nothing had happened, the lively sound of music began to be heard there again.

* * *

Not far from Cheonhwaru, there was a carriage standing.

The person riding in the carriage was Seo Dan-myeong.

He was the architect of this pursuit and ambush.

At that time, a talented person got on the carriage and said.

“The ghosts that entered Cheonhwaru are not coming out.”

Seodanmyeong’s gaze turned to Jaein and then back to the Cheonhwaru building in the distance.

Even though Cheonhwaru was the greatest swordsman of his time, expanding his branches throughout the Central Plains, he was certain that he would not be able to stop the Gwisaldae.

“Are we dealing with some invincible courtesan?”

Normally, I would laugh at Seo Dan-myeong’s jokes even if they weren’t funny, but today I couldn’t. The situation was very bad.

“There has been no news from those who went in to find out.”

Of course, Seodanmyeong knew very well why things weren’t going smoothly this time.

“Did you get support from the Demonic Cult?”

“I think so.”

“You probably didn’t have enough time to prepare?”

“They moved faster than us.”

That means the other person made the right decision.

“When I received the request to kill a gisaeng, I was just unlucky.”

Jaein wanted to ask about Seodanmyeong’s regret.

‘But why did you take on this? Why on earth are you pushing yourself so hard to do this?’

This time, Seo Dan-myeong asked Cho-hee about the situation.

“Anyway, if you get involved with those demonic cult guys, it won’t end well. So? When will you arrive?”

“It will arrive tomorrow night at the earliest, or the day after tomorrow at the latest.”

“I don’t have time.”

I never thought that the assassins would fail to ambush one after another. She was said to be escorted by a young man.

Of course, I assumed that he was a master of the Demonic Cult, but I never thought that he was the leader of the Demonic Cult. There was no way that the leader of the Demonic Cult would be escorting a courtesan alone.

“What do you think?”

“I think we need to get out of this situation right now.”

“If I do that, my reputation will go downhill. No one will ever hire us again.”

He was no ordinary hired ronin.

Seodanmyeong called himself the ‘net-tieer’.

A net weaver.

A person who makes thorough plans and organizes things.

He didn’t just kill people. He persuaded people, mediated between two warring sects, and resolved and settled incidents or accidents. Of course, there were also missions like this one where he had to kill someone.

That’s why he called his work art.

He didn’t move himself.

When chasing people, they hire specialized chasers to do the job, and when they need to kill people, they use assassination organizations and ronin to do the job.

This was convenient for the clients who entrusted him with the work.

I didn’t have to deal directly with the rough and cruel assassins or ronin.

Also, once the contract amount was set, the job was carried out to the end no matter how many times it failed. Of course, the price was very expensive to begin with.

He achieved what he set out to do, no matter what. All he needed was the right amount of money.

The servant, Jaein, knows that Seodanmyeong is not the type of person who would take on the task of tracking down and killing a mere gisaeng. He must have received the job from someone he could not refuse, or he must have received a large sum of money that he could not refuse.

“Who on earth asked you to do this?”

Although Jaein was usually the one who worked silently as Seodanmyeong told him to, he was curious this time.

Seodanmyeong understood Jaein’s feelings and instead of getting angry, he said this.

“A person who absolutely does not want his identity to be revealed.”

Jaein was curious about the person who requested it, but Seodanmyeong didn’t say anything more.

“I brought in one person just in case. In the end, this will result in a huge loss.”

That means that he had prepared a very expensive unmanned vehicle. Who on earth could he be? Fortunately, that curiosity was resolved.

“This time it’s definitely possible, so come with me.”

* * *

“We will arrive at Cheonhwaru tomorrow.”

Chohee’s heart pounded at the thought of finally being able to meet Lord Rouge.

“Thanks to the little sect leader. How can I repay this favor?”

Geommugeuk answered with a smile.

“I have already repaid your kindness.”

“yes?”

Of course, it was Dan-ah’s decision to come to Sojibu, but in any case, thanks to them coming to the school, she was able to meet herself and eventually send a message to the evil Soma.

Just then, there were two people blocking the road in the distance.

The sword dance slowed down the carriage.

They were two men, the younger one being Jaein.

Jaein looked at the sword dance and spoke calmly to the man next to him.

“Just kill the men. I’ll take care of the women.”

Even though he was a master of the Demonic Cult who had dealt with many evil spirits, it felt like he was using a knife to catch a rabbit. I never thought he would prepare for this person.

“Are you talking about an author who is better at talking than martial arts?”

Jaein was secretly curious.

‘You say I’m good at talking? Why do you say that?’

If you become this expert, will you be able to see through even that kind of inner self? But it’s not like you can figure out the good and evil in people.

“How did you find out that I talk a lot?”
