Absolute Regression Chapter 630

Episode 630 This is not our fight

“Behind them was the great master Hwa Yul-cheong.”

At Sima Ming’s words, Geommu Geuk remembered him whom he had forgotten.

The closest friend of the leader of the martial arts world, Cheon-ae Geosa.

Before his return, he was a person who never showed up in public. Even during the era when the Twelve Kings ruled the martial arts world, he never showed up to the outside world.

I haven’t heard any news about Cheon-ae Geosa since the death of the leader.
There were rumors that he had set out to avenge the leader, and rumors that he had been seen somewhere. Come to think of it, he had disappeared from the martial arts world.

Before returning, he was a close friend of the Murim Alliance in the life of the Sword Master, but he had no meaning.
I had completely forgotten about his existence, but today I heard his name.

And that one-letter flag has a special meaning only for the Geommu Theater.

‘Now that I think about it, this person was also Hwa.’

Sima Ming said worriedly, looking at the flag together.

“There are more than one or two sect masters who follow Cheon-ae-geosa. If that person is really behind this incident, then this fight will not be easy.”

This is the worst case scenario.
If he were killed without revealing to the world that he was a villain,
the Cheonmasingyo would have killed the close friend of the Murim Alliance leader and a respected veteran of the sect.

If that happens, the political unrest will rise up like a wildfire, and only after countless people have died will the fire be put out.

Of course, Sima Ming, the commander-in-chief, knew this great event well.

“He has been a friend of the leader since his youth. I can’t believe that he was taken in by them.”

Sima Ming also took into account the possibility that this information was incorrect. It was that hard to believe.

On the other hand, Geommugeuk was suddenly suspicious of the man who had suddenly appeared in his life.

“Maybe I wasn’t recruited at all.”

Sima Ming understood what Jianwu Jie meant. It meant that he was not just being recruited, but that he might be the mastermind of the conspiracy.

“Are you saying that you approached me intentionally from the beginning?”

I couldn’t help but be surprised, because that meant this conspiracy had been planned for decades.

“Haven’t we already confirmed that the masterminds we’ve been dealing with have been preparing for a very long time? Perhaps the starting point of that preparation was sitting next to the leader.”

Sima Ming’s expression became serious at the words of Geommu Geuk. What if that is really so? This fight is not an easy fight.

‘It just so happened that this happened when the leader wasn’t there!’

The two of them stared silently at the busy command center for a moment.
Soon, Sima Ming was the first to break the silence.

“Do you want to go infinitely?”

Geommugeuk never thought the day would come when he would say something like this.

“Yes, I want to go to my brother.”

I wanted to run there right away.

“Would you please send it to me?”

Although he knew very well what Geommu Geuk was thinking, Sima Ming firmly refused.

“No, I won’t. Instead, I will send more Amazons.”

Because of the dangerous situation, Sima Ming could not send Geomwujie any further.
Geomwujie understood him.
However, apart from that understanding, there was also a fateful signal given to Geomwujie.
This news was delivered on the day that Jiuhuamagong had formed a city.

“There is a reason why I must go.”
“What is the reason?”
“I believe that even if only the King and the Demon Lord are present, they can protect my brother.”
“Then why do you want to go?”

Just as the reason why I couldn’t send it was clear, the reason why I had to go was also clear.

“If Cheon-ae Geosa is behind it, he will definitely try to move the leader of the martial arts world. If the leader moves, the martial arts world will move, and then the entire martial arts world of the Jeongpa will move.”

This may be a bit of a leap, though.

“I even think that maybe that’s what they were trying to do to lure us in.”

Because I used the craftsman of the Murim Alliance’s Iron Fist to create the Cheonma Shingyo’s Golden Dragon Weapon.

“Maybe they’ll complicate things.”

How could Sima Ming not know? In this situation, the person who could handle it most flexibly was Geommu Geuk. In addition, Sogyoju was close to Jin Paechun, the leader of the martial arts world.

However, Sima Ming could not make a decision easily.
His gaze was directed to the two flags on the strategic terrain map.

Jeong (正) and Hwa (華).

The flags of the ten or so sect masters placed around it.
Although there are only ten now, the moment the leader of the martial arts world raises the flag, tens or hundreds of flags in the central plains will gather to protect the martial arts world of the sect.

You want to call back the Grand Duke who was out, and you even send out a sword dance?

At that moment, when the two people were tensely refusing to give in to their will, a new messenger arrived from infinity.

“This is a message from the Grand Duke.”

The letter was delivered to Sima Ming. After confirming the contents, Sima Ming said to Jianwu Ji with a surprised expression.

“The Grand Duke has requested assistance from Ma-Bul-nim.”

Since he didn’t know that the Poison King and the Demon King were already in Infinite, he asked for the help of the Demon King from the main body.

“You know my personality, right?”

A man who would rather break than bend, like a bamboo tree swaying in the wind, asked for help.

If he was my older brother in the past, he would have died if he died, and he was not someone who would ask for help.
But now, my brother has changed. He has become a person who can control his emotions for the sake of a greater cause. He called Jin Ha-gun first, and perhaps that was also because of this kind of feeling.

“Since he asked for support, it means he is certain that Cheon-ae Geosa is behind it. It also means that he feels a lot of pressure on the scene.”

Sima Ming, who had been thinking deeply, finally made a decision.

“Okay, go ahead. But there’s a condition.”
“What is it?”
“Take two more Amazons with you.”

Even though tensions with the political faction were extremely high, Sima Ming’s proposal was filled with his determination to never let Geommu-geuk die.

“There are four of you, my brother and I, and the Demon Lord. We can have a Demon King Battle.”

Sima Ming took the joke of the sword play seriously.

“Even if war breaks out, the interim leader must return safely.”

Because the war can be settled, but the death of the swordsman cannot be settled.

However, Geommu Geuk declined Sima Ming’s proposal.

“I will go alone.”
“Temporary Leader!”
“The people who are here now are enough to provoke the Murim Alliance. If more Demon Lords come here, unnecessary problems will arise.”

Sima Ming acknowledged that he had no choice but to trust Jianwujiu. As he said, the more he sent Ma-Zone, the greater the danger would be. This was something that only Jianwujiu could solve.

“Then please remember this benefit.”

Sima Ming walked towards the strategic terrain map.

“The interim leader is not going to fight them. In my judgment, this fight should not become a fight of strength.”

Sima Ming lifted the flag of the Heavenly Sword Master from the two flags placed side by side and moved it outside the Murim Alliance.

“This is why you go.”

It means to let the leader of the martial arts world know the truth.

“And the one who eliminates them must be the Murim Alliance.”

It was a warning to the Cheonmasingyo not to stand at the center of the fight.

“You must persuade the Martial Arts Alliance Leader and the Grand Duke to do this. This fight is the Martial Arts Alliance’s fight, not ours. This is even more necessary since the Leader and Hwa-Yul-Cheong are longtime friends.”

Geommu-geuk could tell what Sima Ming was worried about. If things went wrong, he was worried that the Cheonma Shingyo would be misunderstood as having killed the friend of the Martial Arts Alliance leader.

Because sometimes long-standing friendships blind us and make us turn away from painful truths.

“The temporary leader is there, but at the same time, he is in the Cheonmaseokgak of the main church.”

It was Sima Ming’s request to return as secretly and safely as possible.
After hearing everything, Geommu-geuk politely replied.

“We will move according to the commander’s plan.”

Although his expression seemed to have relaxed a bit, Sima Ming did not let his guard down.

“I will deploy the demon army as far forward as possible, and I will send a message in advance to the demon lords not to leave the main temple. If you need help, please send a message immediately.”

Geommu-geuk nodded obediently, but he thought that it would not happen.
If he went there and had to ask for help, it would be after the war broke out.

“I’ll be back soon.”
“I hope you have a safe trip.”

Even as he was leaving, Geommugeuk didn’t forget to tell a joke.

“I absolutely will not go because the temporary leader has too much work to do!”

As soon as the sword dance began, Sima Ming immediately spoke to the soldiers accompanying him.

“From this moment on, the Tongcheon-gak emergency level will be raised to the highest level!”

When Hanwol-gaek, who had been unable to sleep for the past two days due to ticklishness, woke up in the doctor’s room, it was past noon.
He had been so miserable that he could only now realize that this was the doctor’s room.

It was so ticklish that I could die, but when I opened my eyes, it wasn’t ticklish at all. The hives that had appeared all over my body had disappeared as if it were a lie.

‘What on earth was it for?’

Then suddenly the old fortune teller’s words came to mind.

-I came to chase away the devil, but the devil possessed me.

He’s like a crazy old man. He ate the wrong food and got sick.

He felt sorry for the person who had called him infinite. He had already broken his promise twice. He was not such an unreliable person.

But I couldn’t say I couldn’t go because I had a stomachache, and I certainly couldn’t say it was because I was ticklish.

‘The only way to repay you is to wipe out those demonic bastards.’

That was the only way to salvage this incident.

Hanwol-gaek got up from his seat and opened the door to go out.
Someone was standing in front of the door.

“Huh!”

Hanwol-gaek, who saw who it was, was startled and stepped back.
Who would dare make him step back?
Hanwol-gaek looked at the other person with eyes full of fear.

It couldn’t be helped.
The man in front of me had died a long time ago.

“……You?”

The voice of the Hanwol guest trembled.
The man simply looked at him with indifferent eyes.

“What kind of guy is playing a prank!”

The Hanwol guest shouted and threw his sword.

Crap, craaaaak.
Kwaaang.

The wall in the back hallway was shattered, but the opponent was still standing in front of him.
Hanwol-gaek saw his own tension pass him by. He was a welcome.

‘Ghost?’

A ghost in broad daylight? It was hard to believe, but it was true. And that wasn’t all.

Sssssut.

Another person appeared behind the man, this time a woman.
Hanwolgaek also knew the woman. She was the wife of the man who had appeared before. The woman’s eyes toward Hanwolgaek were filled with resentment.

Hanwolgaek sighed and recalled the past.
After his family was killed by the Mines, he wandered the world like a madman, killing Mines.
The evil spirit called Yeomhaenggwi (淫行鬼) who committed evil deeds at that time was also a Mines. Hanwolgaek found him after several months of chasing him.

That day too, he was raping a woman.
I thought I could kill a rascal like him easily, but he was stronger than I thought.
At the moment when I was finally killing him after a life-or-death fight!
Someone ran into the room from behind.

Hanwol-gaek instinctively swung his sword and cut down the man who rushed at him from behind.

A bloody line appeared on the man’s neck and he fell down, spurting blood.
The man was the woman’s husband.

Thinking back now, it was a ridiculous mistake to cut without checking the opponent. But that was how it was back then.
Even while competing dozens of times in that small room, I fought with all my nerves to keep the woman from dying. Why did I do that even though I had that much skill? I still don’t know why on earth.

I still can’t forget the man’s face, or the woman who screamed while looking at him, even after decades have passed.

For a moment, Hanwol-gaek felt dizzy and his stomach churned.

At that moment, a blood line appeared on the neck of the man standing in front of the door and blood flowed down.

The Hanwol guest was throwing his swords like crazy.

Crash! Crash! Bam
! Kwaang!

The walls on all sides collapsed under the continuous tension.
The fortune teller’s words echoed in my mind.

– Leave the Infinite Land quickly before you suffer a greater calamity.

The walls on all sides were shattered.
The ceiling, which was collapsing, was blown away.
The ghosts were hidden by the dust. When the dust settled again, Hanwol-gaek was standing blankly in the middle of the ruined room.

Instead of a ghost, he saw something else before his eyes.
People working at the hospital were looking at him with surprised faces. Among them was a young doctor sitting on his butt next to a collapsed wall.

Hanwol-gaek’s heart sank at the sight. Just a moment ago, he had almost killed him when he had let out all his tension as if in a fit.

Why did you do that then? Why do you still make the same mistakes now?

“ha.”

After letting out a deep sigh, Hanwol-gaek took out all the vouchers he had in his bosom and placed them on the floor.

“I’m sorry I broke your house.”

And he staggered out of the assembly hall.
He left Muhan without looking back.

There were two people watching the scene from atop a large tree in the distance. They were the Poison King and Ma-Bul.

“What on earth did he do?”
“He was poisoned by a poison made from a mushroom called Simhwanyeongji.”
“What kind of hallucinations did he have?”
“I don’t know. Everyone sees things differently.”

What Hanwolgaek saw was not a ghost, but a guilt that he had buried deep in his heart his entire life.

Mabul looked at the Poison King with a new look in his eyes. He had fought hard to send back the Byeoksan Sword, but the Poison King sent him back without even fighting.
The only thing that could send back the Hanwol Sword like this would be the Poison King’s poison. Oh, there’s one more thing. The mouth of the little cult leader.

“Would you like to experience it? What kind of hallucinations do you see?”

When the Poison King asked seriously, Ma-Bul shook his head.

“I will refuse. What good is inside me?”

Then a merchant ship flew down and landed on the large tree they were standing on.

“The Archduke has contacted our headquarters.”

It was surprising news to Mabul more than anyone else.

“The Grand Duke has asked for help from Ma-Bul-nim.”

The moment he heard those words, Mabul was shocked. It was truly unexpected.
Mabul’s calm eyes shook.

The Archduke chose him. He asked for help from among so many people.

It might be natural, since he was once the closest to me, but when I think about the disappointment I would have felt if I had chosen someone else, this joy was indescribable. And wasn’t it for that that I had come to Infinite?

Mabul tried hard to suppress the urge to run away, but he couldn’t stop the soft light that he had been suppressing from flowing out.

“Tell them I’m coming.”
