I Reincarnated as the Crazed Heir Chapter 61

Episode 61: Into the Fog

I crossed my arms and turned away before I could even hear it. It was obvious even without having to hear it. Please take me with you. You can do it. That must be it.

“Please… … .”

“Nothing will change if you wait. I told you to give up. What can you do with your current abilities? If you feel wronged, don’t forget today and build up your strength. And prove it. If you belong to an organization, there is a reason for the leader’s orders.”

I said coldly and went out of the house. The martial arts world is a real battle. Even if you make a hundred-day resolution, if your skills don’t support it, all you’ll get in return is a dog’s death.

Now was the time for Yarang to sharpen his sword. To protect himself and his crew.

As I came outside and turned my gaze towards the watermill, I saw that the crew was gathered there.

It looked like he was about to leave.

I approached Danjiho and spoke, freeing his stiff neck.

“let’s go.”

This is where Ma Cheon So lived. What is hidden here? I will see it with my own eyes.

“Catch it.”

What? Grab what? Hold my hand?

“What are you doing now?”

I lower my head slightly and six hands wrap around my shoulders, chest, and stomach from behind.

And at the same time, he was pulled back. As I was being dragged along, dumbfounded by the absurd situation, Danshikang, who was passing by, smiled and moved his mouth.

“f*ck, do you think we’re having a picnic? Let the dogs and cows come in.”

Dan Tae-yong, who followed behind, shook his head as if he was pitiful.

“As expected of a man. But his skills are nothing compared to yours.”

The extra went up and down with his shoulders back and his eyes wide open.

And the single peak.

“Kiyoooot!”

He rolled over and went back out, laughing like a madman.

“I don’t know how you saved your crew, but luck doesn’t come twice. Know your place. Please.”

Finally, Danjiho reached the end point and they disappeared into the fog.

Blink, blink. I closed my eyes, but when I opened them, there was nothing.

“They… … are they just abandoning me? Why?”

I asked in disbelief, as if talking to myself. Then the guy holding me from behind kindly answered me.

“Why, you ask? It’s because you’re so damn weak.”

“Who? You… … ?”

He looks so weak.

“No, shit. Why am I coming out of there? I mean, the cult leader.”

“ah.”

“Until the captain comes, wait in that corner with the little rascal. Don’t have any strange thoughts.”

Danyarang looks ahead with blank eyes, having been pushed away, and makes a pitiful expression, smacking her lips.

The four of them left, clicking their tongues and returning to the house.

“Are you… okay?”

“Then. It’s okay?”

I want to kill them all because I’m so pissed off, but that’s okay.

I tried to force a smile onto my lips. My lower lip was trembling.

“Over there… … . Master.”

“why.”

“If you belong to an organization, you have to follow orders, right?”

“… … Are you kidding me?”

“No, that’s not it… … . When I’m really embarrassed and feel like going crazy. When I want to do something even though I know it won’t work. What do I do then?”

Listening to Danyarang’s words, I suddenly remembered my past with my senior, Zhuge Tong.

‘Don’t go. It’s an order. Absolutely not. If you’re the son of the leader, won’t the heavens look after you? It’s the 70th birthday party of the leader of the Taesangmun Taecheongmun. Many elders are attending. But you’re going to go there now and turn it upside down? Oh, dear. I’ll lose.’

‘Senior. Then the kids. Just leave them alone? They’re locked up. I’m offering fifteen kids tonight to live until the old man sh*ts on the wall. Didn’t you see what the secret agent sent?’

‘I saw it. I saw it. It’s still a bit early… … Hey, hey! You crazy bastard! Aren’t you going to stop?’

‘If you want to catch it, come and see. I’ve found it all.’

That day, I went through several rounds of life and death before I was able to capture the Taesangmun Master of the Taecheongmun and lock him up in the wind prison. Thinking about it, I didn’t really listen to anyone until I became the Wind Dragon Master.

When I looked at Danyarang again, I felt an urgent determination in his eyes.

I want to see what I want to see. Even if I can’t do anything. If there’s a mountain I have to overcome, I want to capture it with my own eyes.

“You could die.”

“it’s okay.”

“Even if you return safely, you cannot avoid the punishment for disobeying orders.”

“… … I will endure it.”

I took a shallow breath and looked at the fog again.

I have no choice but to go and rescue the guys who went in anyway. Besides, I need to know that too.

“Get ready.”

“yes-!”

The guy who ran away because he was scared, is so excited to go see it? I burst out laughing.

“But, Master. What should I do about that?”

When Danyarang glanced to the side, she saw four members of her group standing blocking her path.

“What should I do?”

I have to clean it up. I walked briskly towards them with Danya in tow.

“What is it?”

“back.”

“yes?”

“Look behind you.”

When I make a gesture, the four crew members look back at me in bewilderment.

“There’s nothing… … ?”

of course.

Shhhhh!

He swept the floor with his heel.

Papapapak!

Then, dust from the ground enveloped the surrounding area like a sandstorm.

“Coolook, what is this… …?”

“What, what is it!”

As the shouts of the crew poured out and the confusion grew, I grabbed Danyarang’s hand and stepped into the fog.

Hwaaaaah!

The world turned completely white.

* * *

“Everyone, hold hands tightly.”

Danjiho, who came in first, was walking slowly, holding hands with his group that he had never held in his life.

Even though I wanted to go quickly, the fog surrounding me did not allow me to do so.

This is it. I couldn’t see or hear anything more than that. No matter how much I poured out my inner energy, I couldn’t detect any signs.

So, if I got even a little bit separated from the person next to me, I would immediately go missing.

As we continued to advance, one step at a time, the fog cleared and a new space was revealed.

“This place is… … ?”

The revealed place was not as foggy as the place I had stayed before, and was full of houses where someone had lived.

It wasn’t even one.

“Abandoned house… … village?”

Gray powder flies like snowflakes, as if there is a volcanic zone somewhere.

Danjiho bent down and swept the floor where the dust had piled up.

“Is it ash… … ?”

When I rubbed my fingertips, the color spread out like a spread. This was definitely ash.

I raised my head again. It was a gray world filled with ashes and shadows.

It was truly sinister and strange.

But this was definitely a village.

A large village where hundreds of households would have lived.

“what’s this?”

“f*ck, there were people living on Miinbong Peak?”

One by one, the group entered the village and each showed their reactions.

It was a situation that was hard to believe, but impossible not to believe.

As tens of thousands of thoughts swirled around in everyone’s heads, Taeyong threw out one hypothesis that was buried in everyone’s subconscious.

“Surely the crew members who have gone missing until now… … .”

No one asked what he would say next after the slurred speech.

Only sighs and moans flowed.

The tomb of the sword that had been placed at the entrance flashed through everyone’s mind.

Those who wanted to find but could not.

What if the crew members who had been missing from Miinbong were living here and building a village?

I want to deny it, but for now, no other answer comes to mind.

As if it was imprinted in my mind.

“Everyone, don’t let your guard down.”

When Danjiho, who was the first to come to his senses, spoke in a solemn tone, everyone’s spirits grew sharper.

Splash, splash.

The ash on the floor scattered, and a deep tone, like walking on snow, flowed.

Even this, as if it had never happened, soon disappeared into the piled up ashes.

Squeak.

Danjiho opened the door to the house in front and stepped inside. The other four looked around cautiously.

There was nothing. There was only an empty trace. As if it had evaporated.

“What on earth is this place? How long has it been here?”

Even if I ask, there is no answer.

After that I searched for a couple more houses, but it was the same.

“Spread out and search. If anything happens, send a signal immediately.”

“yes.”

“yes.”

They are the best even within the assassination squad. They won’t be easily defeated.

As soon as Danjiho’s order was given, they split into four groups and scattered left and right.

“Whatever it is… I will definitely find it.”

*Danshigang, who had escaped to the right end, looked around slowly.

“f*ck. Are you really a ghost or something?”

I dismissed it as the youngest’s rambling, but when I looked at the atmosphere there, it really seemed like something was about to come out.

He naturally frowned and felt annoyed. However, contrary to his appearance, he was completely absorbed in searching everything without exception.

“There’s no way that old man who used to be so neat and tidy would be in a place like this. He probably couldn’t have endured it even for a day.”

Even though I pretended not to notice, Taeyong’s words continued to grate my nerves.

The idea that the missing people might have stayed here. The hope that someone might be alive. The desire that that might be the father that I want to see and hear from again, even in my dreams.

“No way. Phew! It was already over.”

So I poured out more negative words. I tried to ignore it, afraid that my expectations would be disappointed.

Of course, the reddened eyes couldn’t tell a lie.

“f*ck… … . Ashes are getting in my eyes, it’s f*cking horrible.”

At that time, when I was crossing the line between reality and desire in such loneliness.

Snap, snap… … . Snap.

The sound of irregular footsteps behind me jolted me awake.

‘one?’

His hand slowly lowers to the sword hanging from his waist.

Snap, snap.

The sound is more clearly piercing into my ears than before. And the moment the sound gets closer.

Shhhh!

Danshikang’s sword was pulled out, and he lowered his stance in one breath and slashed at the back.

Fast, accurate, and no frills!

Chae-ae-aeng-!

At the moment when Danshikang was about to take the next stance with a sharp tone.

“No? How did you… …?”

His body froze like ice.

*“Come out.”

Dan Tae-yong’s cross scar twitched as if he was angry.

It was because of the noise I felt behind the house in front. I took out my sword and waited calmly.

Then, a reddish leg suddenly appeared around the corner.

“It really was just like he said.”

When he finally saw his opponent fully revealed, his expression hardened and became even colder.

A red-faced monster with a hunchbacked back and torn skin that reveals hidden bones all over.

A thick fluid, either saliva or blood, dripped from his half-naked face.

“Kurrrrrr… … .”

As far as Dan Taeyong knew, there was only one such being.

A failed product of the Great Law, a corpse that has lost its reason and has been resurrected with only an endless desire to kill.

It was a salgangsi manufactured at Dokgwaegung.

“I don’t know why you are here… … but I will send you to the afterlife.”

Taeyong adjusted his grip on the sword and took a stance.

Splash, splash.

Then the scorpion ran at first slowly, then more quickly. Its tattered head creaked and twisted, and its limp arms waved up and down as it ran.

It was truly a bizarre sight, one I would hate to see in my dreams.

‘fast!’

If it were just a simple sled, it would only have a body as strong as iron and be slower than a child, but this one was fast and accurate like the legendary sled.

Phew!

The abnormally long phalanges of the Salgangsi flew in fiercely.

Taeyong didn’t panic, but pulled his body back and kicked it up.

Kaaaaang!

There was friction as if a lump of iron had been thrown, and sparks flew.

“What on earth is your identity… … . It’s not a gliding speed or a steel speed, but it’s blocking the sword energy?”

“Kurrrrrr… … .”

The salgangsi spat out a sharp sound. At first glance, it seemed that the sword had touched it, but it was only a slight cut.

Instead, he swung his arms and rushed forward with even more ferocity.

Taeyong also bit the inside of his lips and pulled the sword out over his shoulder.

“Sword Tiger, One Strike!”

His sword, which plunged forward like a giant tiger, was filled with enormous internal energy. Even the scattered ashes were engulfed in the air current.

Kwararararara!

Salgangsi took it with his bare body, whether because he was ignorant or fearless.

He charged forward recklessly even though the tip of the sword was stuck in his chest.

“How funny.”

Taeyong gradually pushed forward, releasing the salgangsi that was pushing forward, and then turned his body around.

puck!

Salgangsi loses his balance and falls over due to the sudden loss of strength. However, he gets up again as if nothing happened.

A large hole the size of a joint was drilled into his chest, exposing the bone.

“It’s not easy to break through. But.”

This time, Taeyong flew in first. His movements were light, like feathers floating in the wind.

『The best swordsman in the world.』

Once again, the grasshopper he had just unfurled was reproduced in his hand.

Kwararararara-!

The target point was exactly the same, without a single inch of error. The sword was thrust into the chest that had been pierced.

Kaka kaka kang!

A cruel noise erupted, as if bones were being struck dozens of times with a club.

This time, it seemed that even the pain was too much to bear, so he fell down and let out a scream.

“Kurururuk!”

Phew!

Taeyong’s foot was mercilessly placed on the chest of Salgangsi, who was lying on the floor with his back to the ground.

Then he turned his head once and slowly stabbed the sword into the deep puncture in his chest.

“Kurrrrrr… … .”

“Go where you need to go.”

A calm tone flows and I grab the handle with both hands. I press hard and the sword begins to sink as if it were piercing the floor.

Kaaaaaaah!

Although he was a scorpion that could not feel pain, he struggled to escape as if he felt death. He was unable to move because a thousand pounds were placed on his one foot.

“It’s the end.”

Before I knew it, I had penetrated the black chest muscles and reached the rotten heart.

The scorpion’s lower jaw fell open as if it were making a final show of resistance.

“hmm……?”

Knock knock.

At that moment, a rumbling sensation crept into my feet.

That moment.

An uncontrollable, enormous amount of energy began to rise from Salgangsi’s body.

As I lower my head in wonder, the hideous body of the Salgangsi swells up in lumps.

“what…….”

The iron-like body of the Salgangsi was rippling like liquid. The unimaginable had become reality.

At that time, I was tilting my head with many questions.

“Taeyong-!”

Phew! Phew!

With Danjiho’s scream, Salgangsi’s flesh burst into thousands of fragments.
