Episode 159: The Hunting Dog (3)
As I came out of the palace, I saw Bisaeik surrounded by members of the Gwangmyeongcheonma Army.
Roughly thirty.
Judging from the fact that they all look gloomy and have dark eyes like mine, they must have been my favorites.
“I meet the young sect leader.”
“I meet the young sect leader.”
Even though I hadn’t paid any attention to him, he seemed to have already finished talking because he was being polite and polite, something he never did before.
It looks simple and vicious, but you chose it well. I like it.
“Non-s*xy.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Follow me.”
“Your name.”
Leaving behind the greetings of the Cheonmadae members, I turned right in front of Ilcheongyedan.
It’s an uphill road to Cheonmaseogo.
Bisek gave a brief message to his men and followed me.
Still, I didn’t ask anything about whether the head was there or not.
I just kept my mouth shut and watched from behind.
‘You look happy.’
As I was leisurely climbing the mountain, an evil spirit suddenly spoke to me.
Do you see it?
‘There’s no reason for it to be bad.’
‘I think maybe the future Amazon might not have abandoned you.’
‘Why?’
‘Even though the expressions are different, it’s clear that he cares about you. Why not try telling him to move together?’
‘You heard me. I’m not the kind of person who would stop you, even if I died to get revenge.’
‘It’s a difficult rich-poor relationship.’
‘Should I just do it?’
‘What does that mean?’
‘well.’
I passed Cheonmaseogo with a stern face and continued walking up.
It’s a difficult relationship. That’s not wrong. But what did Geomjon do for you after you died? It doesn’t seem like much.
When I see things like that, am I better than a ghost?
I chuckled and entered the labyrinthine path lined with bushes.
There was no obstruction.
No one told me, but he is definitely at the end of this road.
cotton.
I climbed the mountain to meet him.
The gentle, pouring rain guided me.
After a while, we reached a gloomy forest where no sunlight could reach, and the azaleas formed a barrier as if blocking the path.
‘What are you going to do when you meet someone nameless? It could be dangerous. It would be better to find the Huns… . . ‘
Instead of answering the ghost’s question, I just glanced ahead with an indifferent gaze.
If Anonymous had wanted to kill me, he would have done it a long time ago.
When I came out of Cheonmaseogo, I didn’t even show my face.
I guess he felt it was unnecessary since the veins were not fixed.
Anything.
“I have come to meet the nameless. Open the way.”
Now I have to meet him.
A more certain thing than a half-hearted approach is to go into his arms.
Sssssss.
As if answering the question, the tree branches shook violently, and the magpies scattered like birds fleeing from a loud noise.
The sight of azaleas flying in large numbers to fill the sky naturally caught the eye.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Soon the bushes parted and a path opened up before my eyes.
Thud, thud.
As we took each step inward, it became a desert with blowing sand, and then a North Sea filled with ice.
‘Is this level of formation possible… … .’
It’s just as the demon said. It’s a method that turns the world upside down.
Even the temperature and everything felt real, not like an illusion.
Damn it.
As we continued walking, ignoring it, a stone pagoda appeared in the forest surrounded by large trees.
It was a strange thing.
Bisek couldn’t hide his bewilderment at the sudden situation.
“How can there be a place like this in Gwangmyeonggung Palace… … .”
He’s a rat that’s been hiding for hundreds of years. That must be how it happened.
After glancing at the Bisaiks once, I looked ahead again, and saw warriors wearing demon masks blocking the way with an ominous aura.
I shrugged my shoulders and raised the corners of my mouth.

“The treatment of the invited guest is not good. They greet you with ugly masks on… … Do you have so much to hide?”
The warriors’ spirits grew stronger at the sarcasm, and their whole body’s senses began to shake.
Bisek blocked me with one arm and gave me a sense of intimidation as if he was fighting back.
He showed his spirit by standing up to dozens of Heavenly Palace warriors without being defeated. He is definitely a useful dog.
[[Open the way and lead us.]]
Just then, the sound of the Six Harmonies spread from the stone pagoda.
It’s unknown. The warriors lined up on the left and right as if they had always done so, and opened the way.
But I just stared blankly and didn’t move an inch.
‘What’s going on?’
The ghost asked. But the question was wrong.
It’s not that something has happened, it’s that it’s going to happen.
It would be negligence, not generosity, to just pass by a hunting dog standing stiffly, baring its teeth, without even knowing the topic.
“Non-s*xy.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“It’s annoying.”
“Please give me the order… ….”
Bisaiku briefly lowered his head and flashed a look of hope, and I spoke lightly in a languid tone.
“Be patient.”
“Your name.”
Crunch! Crunch!
Bisaiku’s body flew like a ray of light and cut off the head of the warrior standing in the first row.
Even though he didn’t use any weapons, and just swung his blade, it was as clean as if he had been cut by a famous sword.
Crunch, rustle!
A cruel tone poured out, and I walked slowly down the blood-soaked road.
One thing I have to admit is this.
The warriors of the Heavenly Palace are loyal and steadfast. They accept death without any resistance.
“Wait here.”
“Your name.”
Standing at the end of the road of corpses, I walked in without looking back.
*“What a frugal life. It would be a disaster if it rains heavily.”
As we passed through the hallway and reached the end of the room, there was an anonymous person sitting alone in the cramped room.
It’s surprising that the master of the heavenly palace who moved mountains is staying in such a shabby place.
The high ceiling is open and the furniture is extremely simple.
The anonymous person spoke while leisurely pouring tea.
“The Master is truly a mysterious person.”
“Is that a compliment?”
“Let’s just say I’m interested.”
“That interest. I thought it was all gone, even the wick.”
“That was the case until you came here. Please eat.”
Anonymous handed me a glass. There was a strange Western pattern drawn on the inside of the glass, and although it was transparent tea, it didn’t taste very good.
I ate it all in one bite and changed the subject.
“You raised the dog well. I thought it would rebel.”
“There is no need for personal opinions in following God’s will. I was told to serve the Soryu, so I just did my job.”
I thought you might wonder why he killed her, but not a single wrinkle has changed.
I have to admit one more thing.
Anonymous is a harsher bastard than you might think.
Again. Nameless poured the tea again.
“In the past, there was a tribe called Wangyebu.”
“Wang Ye-bu? Are you referring to the tribe of Wang Ye-min, the founder of the Jin Dynasty?”
“Oh… … . You knew. That’s right. When the Jin Dynasty gained control of the Central Plains with great momentum, the Wangye clan, which had been staying in small groups in foreign countries, never ran out of guests. It is said that they visited the palace more frequently than the palace where the founder Wang Yemin stayed.”
Although the old story started out of nowhere, I listened.
I didn’t think Anonymous would talk nonsense, and my interest was piqued.
“Why?”
“At that time, the Jin and the Qing dynasties were the Emperor’s bodyguard and the inspector general, the Amroesa, and the military organization, the Iroesa. They were all powerful because they were led by the Iron Guard and the Gojama Army, but their leaders were all from the Wangyebu.”
The emperor was also a nobleman, but instead of looking for him, he went all the way to the tribe… … .
It’s a cliché.
“The hidden king of gold. So there was a separate chieftain.”
Anonymous nodded with the corners of his lips raised.
“You saw it. Among those who came to Wangyebu, there were those with good intentions, but there were also quite a few spies from Liao and Song.”
“Yona, who was betrayed by the Jin Dynasty, who treated him like a barbarian, and went west, and Song, who lost the central plains, would not have looked upon it favorably. It is only natural for the defeated to feel resentment.”
“You have such great knowledge. The old man is surprised once again.”
“What do you want to say?”
I poured the tea into my mouth again.
Tsk tsk. And just like that, the teacup was filled.
The anonymous continued speaking without hiding his smile.
“And yet, Wang Yabu was sure to find the spy and behead him.”
“Is it possible?”
“When a guest came to visit, the chief first served him Poria tea and judged him until he had drunk three cups. If he did not understand the reason for his visit at all during that time, he was unconditionally punished.”
“It seems you had a rather short temper.”
“I just valued time.”
Suddenly, I picked up the teacup again and looked at it.
It’s Poria tea.
And this is the third glass.
A snicker escaped. Looking at the nameless man, his large facial features were smiling like a devil, as expected of a Westerner.
Even the invisible azaleas make a beast’s mouth as if they are going to swallow me.
Does this mean that if I don’t tell you what I want to say properly this time, I’ll kill you?
I looked at the teacup absentmindedly again and poured some into my mouth without hesitation.
And then she looked at him and said:
“I will be with the Heavenly Palace.”
Kwaaaaaaa-
Then, the nameless one let out a silent laugh, and a huge aura that could shake the mountains enveloped me.
That’s not all. The azalea created a huge whirlwind, and my body floated up as if I had lost my senses.
But my spirit was not swayed by any threat.
Even though he was surrounded by a crowd of people, he didn’t take his eyes off Mu-myeong.
Then, after a while, the storm’s momentum died down, and I fell to the ground with a thud.
Anonymous opened his mouth.
“Have you heard about the Heavenly Palace from the leader?”
I faced the questioning tone with a calm face.
I could only look up from my collapsed state because my senses hadn’t fully returned yet, but I didn’t want to convey anything other than what I was saying.
“Does that matter? The problem is that the Gwangmyeong Palace can’t protect me forever.”
“Isn’t there a leader who cares for the younger leader?”
“If he could have protected me, he would not have abandoned me in the palace of Somyeong and entrusted me to you.”
The nameless man laughed again, silent and evil.
Then, like an animal, he came to me, lying face down, sniffing around, and twitched his nose.
The anonymous man stared at me intently right in front of my nose and started talking about something off-topic.
“It is truly mysterious. Why can’t I see you, Master?”
“You see me so clearly in your eyes right now. I didn’t know you were blind.”
“Even if the five stars are astonishing, they are still nothing more than insignificant children born with mortal flesh.”
Is it an insult or a compliment?
Anonymous continued speaking as if my opinion was of no importance.
“If it’s because I inherited the bloodline of Maga… … I didn’t learn Bukmyeongsingong, nor did I reach the realm of Deungbongjogeuk. I really wonder about that.”
“I don’t know who I’m talking to.”
“You will find out soon. Alright. For now… … let’s believe it. You said you wanted the power of the heavenly palace?”
Myeong-un got up again and showed a relaxed look while carrying his luggage behind his back.
I also clenched and unclenched my fists a couple of times and stood up.
“As long as we both agree on something.”
“Even if it means denying the incarnation of the Holy Spirit?”
“There is no need to deny it since you didn’t believe it in the first place.”
“Hmm… … .”
“This time, I will ask. What does the Heavenly Palace desire? Is it the rule of the Myungseo?”
“The sun in the sky may look big to some, but it is just one of the stars in the universe.”
“I guess the famous school is nothing to you.”
“That’s possible. It’s just that the way we look at things is different.”
The anonymous man grabbed a wooden doll from a small table and dropped it on the floor.
“Eternal punishment. It is the will of Heaven to punish sinners forever.”
“Who?”
“Right here. It’s a famous school.”
Is it a grudge?
“Did your father pass away in Manma-dong?”
“God’s will is vast beyond human reach, but sometimes what seems small can be bigger than a mountain.”
Is it true or not?
As if he didn’t want to hear any more, Anumyeong gave a vague answer, then wiped away his smile and got back to the main point.
“The life and death of heaven and earth move according to the threshold. Please punish the sinners of the mountains who have been in peace for a long time. Then… … At that time, I will welcome the young cult leader as your representative.”
So, it seems like there’s still an unknown person in charge of Cheonmasogo.
Because it’s a test… … .
“Is it okay to kill the believers?”
“If you want to get your way with someone, sacrifice is inevitable, so if you do that, we will come looking for you someday.”
The head nodded.
It is to prove the truth of my intentions.
I thought, touching the tip of my chin.
That’s right… … .
Isn’t that too easy?
“Let’s meet again.”
I turned around with a big smile. Nameless also smiled and bowed his head slightly.
