I Reincarnated as the Crazed Heir Chapter 143

Episode 143: The Magical Brain (2)

Xinjiang Park Ho-hyeon

On the dock, black sails fluttered, standing out especially today.

Because the coastal waters were shallow, they used sand boats with flat keels on the bottom, but these were only boats used by fishermen.

However, the black ship was twice as large as the original ship and had three masts, which naturally revealed its majesty.

“Everything is ready.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

And there was someone watching this from the dock with a satisfied look.

A man with a dignified appearance and a kind impression. On the outside, he looks like an ordinary man of letters, but he is Taekangjun, the most powerful mind in the world, who can control mountains with a single word.

Behind him sat Sohong, the leader of the non-commissioned officer corps who was escorting him.

But for some reason, her face looks filled with worry.

“May I dare say something?”

“Permitted.”

“Please, let me collect the enemy line that you gave me. I have already ordered all of the non-commissioned officers to pursue him. If you give me the order, I will take him along with his head.”

I could feel her firm loyalty as she bowed her head. Taekangjun smiled faintly as he watched her.

“You don’t trust me?”

“How could that be?”

“So, was that what he was afraid of?”

“… … The enemy line is fearful. It is a precious item that the leader has given to the soldiers. If he takes it to Cheonsan and harbors other evil intentions… … .”

“I will. The Red Line is like my symbol. But that won’t happen today. If it weren’t for me right now, I wouldn’t be able to say hello to Cheonsan. Now that I have the Red Line in my hands, I’m going to plot tomorrow, not today. So this time, I have no choice but to follow. That’s all I need. So just tell them to keep their distance and follow me quietly.”

“Please share your military opinions. Shin Bijeopdanju Sohong, I cannot sit idly by and watch someone who is harmful to the military.”

“We just needed someone to take responsibility. Wouldn’t reporter Cheon be enough?”

“then…….”

“Everything that happens in the sea today will be his doing. One way or another, isn’t his root the righteous faction? Even if he is the head of the Haomun, his color doesn’t match the mountains. Also… … He will prepare for the future, but it will be a day that will never come for him. Do you have the answer now?”

When Taekangjun gave her an affectionate smile, Sohong nodded with a somewhat relaxed expression.

I was grateful for his heart for believing in me and telling me this, and I was reminded of my loyalty to him once again.

Who is he? He is Military Taekangjun.

He always has a plan, and when he says something, it will come true.

“Then let’s go on a boat ride for the first time in a while.”

“yes!”

Pfft! The sails were stretched taut, and the black ship quickly sailed past the dock and toward the center of the fishing sea.

*After a long time had passed since the black ship had left, a new group appeared at the dock.

At first glance, it looks like noble young men have come out for a walk, but upon closer inspection, the composition is unusual.

“I can’t admit it.”

Taehwa and Baekmu Chilgi-dae sent the later indexes back and hurriedly ran to Park Ho-hyeon.

And after finally meeting Yaluljin, his brows furrowed with boiling anger.

“Taehwa, it’s been a while.”

“I don’t feel like greeting you, so please leave it alone, Prince Cheon.”

I understand that he went on a boat ride with the cult leader. But I couldn’t understand why he was accompanied by the genius.

Yuljin and Cheonjaesang.

It’s a proposition that has always been a source of dissatisfaction for her.

The highest review index of Myeonggyo is Yaluljin, but why is the letter of Sangjaegung Naburangi mentioned together with it?

And boating? What the hell is this?

“Haha, why are you like that again? Oh, Aso and Amin are here too.”

“Your Majesty, are you well?”

“Oh, excuse me. It’s obvious you must be intimidated being with the Archduke.”

“Oh, I see.”

“Haha… … . Should I be discouraged?”

Taehwa snorts as Cheon Jae-sang scratches his head awkwardly.

“Taehwa. This is where the small lord is. Be careful.”

“I… …follow your orders.”

Taehwa clenched his teeth, glared at Cheon Jae-sang, and took a step back.

“Hey, Baek-gong. But why are you just sitting there like that, So-ju? Are you eating well? The third one on the left is good.”

“If you have any questions, go and ask.”

“No, what… … . You’ll choose as you wish. Haha!”

After seeing Ma Cheon-so’s affectionate side at Myeong Chun-ru, Cheon Jae-sang was a bit cautious.

Not only that, but Yaluljin also had subtle changes on the inside, unlike on the outside. I decided that he wasn’t just a sect leader in name only.

The group’s gaze was simultaneously directed forward.

Ma Cheon-so silently watches the ships lined up on the dock from behind the guard of the Cheonma Corps.

‘You have to see sending Cheon Jae-sang and Yal Yu-jin as a military trick. It must have given me a reason to leave Cheonsan. If it’s an excuse to become friendly with them, it shouldn’t be difficult.’

Contrary to what others thought, Ma Cheon-so was looking for Tae Kang-jun’s arrangement.

It was a fight he had been waging from the beginning.

After the blood demon Eul Tae-sik left the palace, the ambush attacks by his family members began to become more frequent, and as if to show off, he sent Sangang into So-myeong Palace.

In addition, from the friendship with the later index to the news that he went to Park Ho-hyeon, he told Jeom So-yi.

I knew that everything was planned out.

Surely there are schemes to harm you everywhere.

‘I’ll follow whatever you prepare. So tell me. Where are you hiding?’

A strong wind blows and my robe flutters. Looking at the open horizon, I feel like I’ve fallen into the vast ocean.

It was just then.

“Hey, how’s the weather today? Is it okay to go boating?”

“Yes, of course. The weather is nice and perfect for a boat ride. We also launched a large black ship earlier.”

Black Ship? Ma Cheon-so turned his head and saw Cheon Jae-sang and a fisherman on the dock having a conversation.

The corners of his mouth went up.

‘Oh, that’s right. That’s right. There’s no better place to bury me than there.’

Ma Cheon-so walked to where the genius statue was and pulled at the clothes on his waist.

“Soju?”

“I want to go boating.”

“Haha, yes. Of course you should. That’s why you came. Let’s go! Hey, listen. I need to borrow your boat.”

“Huh? This boat…? Hey, this is a fishing boat. I have to go out today and catch something… … . Oh my… … Your Majesty. Please stop talking.”

The fisherman knelt down and begged earnestly.

“Don’t worry. I’m not just asking for it.”

The genius took out a silver ingot shaped like a horseshoe from his bosom. Then the fisherman’s face lit up and a strange light appeared in his eyes.

“I’d like to charter all the boats here, would that be possible? Oh, and I’d also like to bring some food with me when I go.”

“Oh my, is there any chance! I know all the Park Ho-hyeon ship owners, so I’ll call them over right away.”

“Thank you.”

“Haha, we can only be grateful. We will not forget the grace of Heavenly Mountains.”

The fisherman expressed his gratitude by drawing a flame shape with his hand, although it was clumsy.

Even though they didn’t reveal it openly, they knew right away that they were from Cheonsan.

They may not say anything to each other, but inside, they may not know it, and outside, there is nothing more effective than the money supply of Sangjae Palace.

“Wow, Prince Cheon is amazing.”

“Aso, I am drawing my sword.”

“Not really.”

Just don’t talk.

“It’s noisy, Amin, you guys go and get something to eat.”

When Cheon Jae-sang suddenly loses his temper, Aso and Amin run behind Yal-yul-jin and hide.

Then, the order of Yaluljin, who had been watching blankly, was given.

“Go to Eohaeru with Taehwa.”

“yes!”

“yes!”

“All right.”

As the three people disappeared, Yaluljin approached Ma Cheon-so and Cheon Jae-sang.

And I looked around the dock.

There are six ships anchored.

Even if you add Cheon Amoo and Yal Yul Tak together, the number of people is less than thirty.

Still, chartering all these ships… … .

“You’ve put a lot of thought into it.”

“What about the head? It’s basic. Have you forgotten that I’m one step ahead of you outside of Cheonsan? Haha! Since Soju-nim is riding, you have to prepare for any unexpected situation.”

Yaluljin nodded his head without saying anything.

Since the genius was often out and about due to his behavior, he would be more familiar with it than anyone else.

If it was inside Cheonsan, it might be different, but outside, there were enemies on all sides, so it wouldn’t hurt to be careful.

The reason why they called the small group leader “Soju” and called each other “Confucius” was along the same lines.

If it were just one ship, it could be a life-or-death crisis the moment it sank. It would be impossible for someone who was neither a master of supernatural power nor a master of lightness to spread out his water weapon and escape.

“Little Master. Please don’t leave my side.”

Yal-Yul-Jin opened his mouth, his half-gray hair fluttering. It seemed like a passing remark, but his tone was filled with an inexplicable sense of trust.

“Hey, Baek-gong. Why are you next to me? It’s safer next to me.”

“You have done all you can for the boat fare.”

“Huh… …? Is that a compliment?”

“That would be the best you can do.”

“But this kid!”

Ma Cheon-so burst into laughter at the two’s bickering.

Then he turned around, looked at the horizon, and muttered.

“Don’t die stupidly.”

The expressions of Cheon Jae-sang and Yal-yul-jin are filled with doubt.

Why does it sound like a curse word but also sounds affectionate?

Shh …

It’s time to go boating.

* * *

Myunggyo Mokbong Salgung

Salgung receives dozens of commission requests every day.

In this world, everyone has at least one story of injustice, so how could there not be someone who wants to kill someone?

So, Salgung was a place where all the complicated stories of the world gathered.

There was a time like this.

There was a nouveau riche man who, during his childhood when he had a runny nose, lost his single mother to a group of thieves right before his eyes and survived through desperate efforts to become self-made.

He did not hesitate to commit evil deeds for decades, only seeking revenge and swindling money like plunder.

And he mobilized his ronin to sweep away all the thieves in the Central Plains, and finally found a portrait that matched his memories.

‘It’s this guy. It’s definitely this guy!’

It was just a picture on a piece of paper, but I was so angry that my teeth were trembling and my eyes were darkening.

However, the thief was the best master of the Black Swordsmanship Sect, and after much thought, the rich man found Salgung… … .

‘You must bring him to me. Even if his limbs are cut off, just bring him back alive. If you let me kill him with my own hands, I will give you everything I have saved in my life.’

He was so resentful that he, who had no affection for money, even shed tears.

Salgung accepted the request and brought it back with exactly two amputated legs in just one day.

‘I finally met you again. Why did you do that…? Why did you do that!’

‘Kuuuu. What an insolent bastard… … He only does it when he gets a kick out of it, so what more reason do you need?’

I will not regret it.

‘You idiot… … You think you won? Hahaha! You’re wrong. I don’t know pain or fear. I’ll laugh at you even after I die. Hehe, hahahaha!’

‘Yes… … . That’s the kind of guy you were. You brutally murdered my mother and laughed at me through the crack in the wardrobe door. Twenty-seven years ago, that night too!’

‘… I’m thirty-two?’

‘Worm, shit!’

That day… …both the thief and the rich man cried.

Although it was a place where all sorts of stories gathered, the killers paid no attention to it.

Because the moment the blade hesitates, it cannot be killed.

But this request was one that even the world’s best Lee Ho couldn’t ignore.

He tilted his head with a thoughtful look as he examined the papers arranged on the table.

‘The military’s request is to eliminate the butler of Somyeonggung Palace. It may be seen as treason, but it is not impossible.’

It was definitely like that. Where is this place? It’s a famous school overflowing with all kinds of conspiracies and tricks.

There were many cases where I had to ask Salgung for help even for things I could have handled myself.

Moreover, the client is Taekangjun, a military officer and second in command of Myunggyo.

There was no way he would risk his life to deal with a mere butler. He thought it would be a harmless thing even if it was known.

If it weren’t for what the leader of the cult said to the disciple a few days ago.

Lee Ho lifted the second letter that had been placed. Even though he had already read it several times, his eyes followed the words.

‘If what the leader said is true, then the military is plotting treason. If things go wrong, the arrows of the Gwangmyeong Palace may be pointed at us. Moreover… … .’

This time I looked at the third letter.

‘The leader of the small sect is suffering from a blood clot. The military must have known this. So the justification for eliminating him is also clear. No one would want the Gwangmyeong Palace to collapse more than they do. The problem is… ‘

He had a feeling that if he told this to Princess Guyangryong, she would not only reveal the military’s treason, but would also agree to join in.

And it will never be about a cause or a belief like in the military.

There was a high probability that he would do this just for fun. No, it was certain.

Lee Ho’s gaze turned to the fourth and last letter.

It was a very short piece of writing.

【The leader of the religious sect, Park Ho-Hyeon, is on his way.】

And the military is also staying in Pakho-hyeon.

To sum it all up… … .

‘There is an uprising going on in Park Ho-hyeon.’

Besides, there probably isn’t much time left.

At that time, my worries deepened and I continued to hesitate.

Bam.

A masked assassin appeared.

“Shin 49. I have a request, so I will report it to Lee Ho first.”

“hmm……?”

He turned his head in puzzlement. The only things he was assigned were the assassination of key figures above the rank of major general, or those related to the work currently in progress.

However, since the assassination of leaders was strictly prohibited within Cheonsan after Matae Pyeong became the leader, this request was definitely the latter.

“Where did you come from?”

“This is Geumbong Taehakru.”

“Taehakru… … ?”

“yes.”

Suddenly, a feeling of unease crept over me. If it was Geumbong, it was where the Dokgwae Palace and the Elder’s House were.

And it is also a place the cult leader visited recently.

Lee Ho asked in a low tone, his expression furrowed.

“Who is the client?”

“That is… … the Somyeong Palace.”

My mind flashed. It was the Somyeong Palace!

Lee Ho snatched the secret document from Forty-Nine Ho’s hand and unfolded it.

And I doubted my eyes.

This is ridiculous. How can you leave this to Salgung?

He is not in his right mind. The cult leader is clearly crazy.

Lee Ho grabbed the paper tightly and started walking out without hesitation.

“I must see the princess immediately.”

The whirlwind created by the cult leader and the military also blew into Jukrim.
