Episode 71: Behind the Birugol
“Your Majesty… … What brings you here? Haha.”
The man’s face transformed from a yaksha to an affectionate one as if nothing had happened.
His bent back was humble, and his tone was calm.
The smile is so natural and kind that it feels like not even a single flower could be plucked.
It was completely different from the previous murderers. It was a polarized appearance with a sense of community.
“It’s been a while. I came to find out something.”
Dan Ye-hwa answered in a friendly manner, as if they were already familiar with each other. The words that would normally have been said, “You know what to do,” came out as somewhat mild.
“Haha, it was fate that we met here. If you tell me, I’ll help you.”
“What about fate? That’s okay. I can go and look for it.”
Dan Ye-hwa waved her hand and walked towards the village.
Then the man stood in the way, frowning with wrinkles under his eyes.
“What is it?”
“Young lady. This is where the isolated people stay. If something happens to you, young lady, how can I face the Princess Geomdan? I will help you.”
Dan Ye-hwa’s beautiful forehead twitched. Why is there such a fuss when everything is done? She had a lot to say, but she stuck out her red lips and sighed instead.
Even though she was called Ice Flower, she was not someone to be dealt with easily, and she was usually popular.
“I would appreciate it if the Lord of Heavenly Demons could help me. However, this is just my personal interest, so please ignore it.”
The leader of the Gwangmyeong Cheonma Unit, the direct bodyguard of the cult leader.
Rank 20, Mad Asura, Biseiik.
That was his true identity.
In contrast to his smiling face, the tips of his fingers were bright red.
“Since the leader is not here, all we as the guards have to do is search around. That’s why we know everything that happens in Cheonsan.”
“Oh, yes. Huh? What is this?”
Just as she was about to answer indifferently and turn to the side to walk away, a small butterfly ornament on the floor caught my eye.
At the same time, Bisek’s expression hardened in an instant.
The clown with his small pupils up, the image of a murderer came back to life once again.
“Young lady.”
He calls her in a gloomy tone.
“Trinkets? Who spilled them? What’s that smoke? Potatoes? I’m hungry.”
“Young lady.”
“Oh, what is it? Why, why? What.”
She turned around with a frown on her face. Viseiks tilted his head slightly and asked with a forced smile.
“What… are you looking for?”
“Why are your eyes wide open? Where does it hurt? Huh… … . Are you curious? I came to find the Black Star. Is that okay?”
“okay.”
“Why are you laughing?”
“No. I have heard of the Black Star. But it is just a rumor. Moreover, if you are looking for him, shouldn’t you go to Oirat instead of here?”
“We’ll have to wait and see if it’s true or not. And he’s been here too.”
“… … .”
“I see you like that again. Be honest. Are you feeling dissatisfied these days? Are you bored and angry all the time?”
“Haha, how could that be…?”
“Anyway, now that I’ve said it, is that okay? I’ll go.”
As she was about to walk into town, Bisaiq blocked her path again and said:
“There’s nothing you can find out by going there.”
Dan Ye-hwa frowned at his words. She had come all the way here from Geomdan Palace, but she couldn’t be in a good mood since she was already making noises.
“How do you know that?”
“Because I’ve already checked and am on my way back.”
“Why, Your Majesty?”
“Because the cult leader might be there. If there is someone called Heukhwaseong, he might be enjoying himself.”
The person that Bisek is talking about is clearly the cult leader Matthew Pyung.
Dan Ye-hwa nodded quietly. Just the mention of his name made it impossible to ignore his presence.
Moreover, given his usual popularity, there is no reason not to believe him.
“Okay. Then can you tell me?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Bisaiq bowed his head slightly and continued his explanation kindly.
“They say that on the day that the Black Star was said to have arrived, the Young Leader was here.”
“What did you say?”
There is no place that human being is not involved in. What is that, octopus legs? Dan Ye-hwa frowned and kicked a rock.
Why is his name suddenly mentioned here?
“It was said that the village chief of Birugol here forced believers into labor to make Mihonsan.”
“What kind of kid is that… …! Oh, I’m sorry. That’s why.”
At Dan Ye-hwa’s rough tone, Bisei-ik just smiled and continued speaking.
“At that time, a man named Heukhwasung appeared, harmed the village chief, and ran away.”
Bisek’s words tended to implicitly treat Heukhwaseong as a criminal, but Danyehwa clapped her hands and looked at him with admiration.
But.
“And it is said that the young sect leader stayed here quietly and left without even saying goodbye.”

Even though they were in the same space and at the same time, Heukhwaseong was a hero and Macheonso was a bastard.
“It’s the worst, really.”
Dan Ye-hwa blushed the whole time because she was so embarrassed. But as the image of his smile lingered in her mind, she shook her head and wiped it away.
“That’s all for now. Still, isn’t it a great honor that the reputation of the Sogyoju has reached such a place?”
Bisek came over and smiled awkwardly, offering comfort. Don’t be so miserable.
“What about fame? It’s the destruction of humanity.”
“But in the Myonggyo sect, there is no one as tyrannical as the Sogyo leader.”
Are you kidding me? Dan Ye-hwa raised her eyebrows.
“Okay? Take it if you want. I don’t need it.”
“Haha… … What are you going to do now?”
When Bisei changed the subject with a look of embarrassment, Dan Yehwa seemed to think for a while, but then answered as if she had made up her mind.
“I should go to Somyeong Palace.”
Have you seen the Black Star? Who is he? Where did he go? And why are you, the leader of the cult, hiding?
Those eyes full of disappointment seem to have a lot to say.
Bisaiq nodded at her and expressed his intention.
“Okay, then do that.”
“You’re not trying to follow me, are you? Don’t do that. It’ll look weird to others.”
In response to her blunt words, Bisaiq simply smiled deeply and bowed his head politely.
Dan Ye-hwa shrugged her shoulders and walked away.
But she will never know.
How sinister and cruel the thoughts of the Visek standing right behind him are.
‘You sl*t. You dirty sl*t. You came all the way here chasing after guys. You don’t like hanging out with me? You unlucky sl*t.’
In the place left alone, only a murderer was present.
* * *
The palace where the Bigunghoe was held fell into silence. It was because of a new person who had appeared.
Hyulra stood tall next to the prostrated Sowon-gi, glanced at him once, then held his head up stiffly and waited.
When Yul-Cheon asked with a subtle expression, ‘You… …’, the answer was also shocking.
“Blood.”
That was all. Thanks to that, silence fell over the space for a moment, and after a while, Guyangryong burst into laughter and said.
“It’s fun, it’s fun.”
Funny, what the hell. That crazy kid. How can he open his eyes wide and raise his head? Cheon Se-min swallowed his anxious heart, worried that he might mess things up. Gulp.
‘It definitely looks familiar… … .’
Yul-Cheon tilted his head and hardened his expression. No matter how hard he tried to recall it, he couldn’t get the feeling.
Those cheeky eyes. I definitely remember seeing them somewhere.
“Is this the guy I’m going to deal with?”
The worries that had been lingering came back to reality with Hyulra’s words.
Sowon-gi felt anger well up in her eyes at the word “guy.” She slowly raised her head and looked at him.
What a worthless guy. That’s exactly what he looks like. My heart was seething.
‘This cheeky little brat… … . This is a good thing. I will definitely rip your face off and kill you.’
One thing was certain, except for a few, everyone thought the same thing.
Dirty and arrogant… …and strangely familiar.
So the princesses chose silence.
On the other hand, Hyul-ra, who became the subject of deep interest as soon as he appeared, was calm and composed.
“I don’t think we need to drag this on any longer. Shall we begin?”
His question drew attention to Yalulcheon. It was an unspoken pressure to get started.
But he hesitated. Leaving everything else aside.
‘I can’t fathom his level.’
Yul-Cheon is the absolute leader recognized by everyone. The fact that he has not read anything means one of two things.
Either he is at the peak of his acting or he is a master who has reached the peak of his power.
“It’s interesting. I’m also curious.”
Han So So opened her mouth.
Yul-Cheon’s eyebrows twitched. Then he looked at the three people.
Han So-so, Gu Yang-ryong, and Dan Jeong-hak.
Everyone’s faces are filled with curiosity. They must have felt the same way as I did.
Although he didn’t show it, he was quite embarrassed. The current situation was like a sailless boat floating in the wind.
“A wish.”
Instead of saying start, Yul-Cheon called him, the leader of the Iron Horse Corps.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Ask the lower extremity question.”
“yes!”
With those words, So-Won-Ki disappeared from the spot as quickly as a ray of light.
“Here we get to see the Ghost Army’s new method. Tsk tsk.”
Dongbang sat up straight, puffing out smoke. The long-awaited main stage of the day had begun. But soon, his anticipation turned into doubt.
“Have you given up already? Why are you just standing there blankly without even looking?”
Hyul-ra was still looking at the princesses with indifferent eyes, as if he had no interest in the disappeared wish-list.
Okay then.
Ping! A sharp arrow like a poisonous snake flew towards Hyulra’s leg.
The Iron Horse Cavalry are skilled in swordsmanship, spearmanship, and even archery.
The wish was not to end it all at once, but to torment it thoroughly.
“this!”
Dongbang sighed in regret at the thought that it was already the end. Even though the arrow had reached his eyes, Hyulra did not move as if he did not know anything.
The moment when the arrow finally lodged in his calf.
Kwaruruk!
The blood has disappeared.
No, to be exact, it turned into blood.
Kwadang! As soon as Gu Yang-ryong saw this, he kicked his chair and jumped up. His eyes were filled with joy and he smiled madly.
Danjeonghak and Yulcheon, who were both blunt in their expressions, were equally surprised. For a moment, their pupils shook and their eyebrows turned inward.
In the narrow space, harsh screams were heard here and there.
“Hey, where did you go?”
“It’s up there now.”
“stomach?”
Dongbang raised his head and looked up at Hansoso’s words.
But at that moment, a red-colored figure fell down.
Kwaaaaang!
I hurriedly lowered my gaze and saw Hyeol-ra standing in the same place as before with the same arrogant look in his eyes.
Another thing is that there is a wishing well laid out under his feet.
“Blood Heavenly Water Dragon… … .”
Danjeonghak opened his taciturn mouth. His words shocked the world.
Bloody Cheonsu Ragong is a unique martial art that the Gwangmyeong Cheonma Dae masters. However, not a single person has ever mastered it.
The same goes for the current Gwangmyeongcheonma Daeju Biseiik.
If there was anyone who came close to him, it was only one.
“It was you. Eul Tae-shik. Why didn’t I know?”
The name of Hyulra was revealed through Yalulcheon’s mouth. Dongbang was so surprised that his mouth fell open.
Kwadangtang! Cheon Se-min also jumped up. The chair fell to the ground. His eyes bulged three times.
‘What is this? That guy is the former Cheonma Daeju Eul Tae-sik? What the hell!’
“Water Lord, you bastard. How did you manage to boil a guy who had become a wreck? Heh, heh heh… … .”
Dongbang shook his head as if he couldn’t believe it and asked.
I don’t know, you old man! How could you know that he was Cheon Se-min? I could only lament my own lack of insight. How on earth did I not know that it was the Bloody Heavenly Water Art? Frustration seeped into me from the past when I had looked down on martial arts.
“I heard you lost your inner strength… … . That was a false rumor.”
Everyone swallowed their breath. It was shocking that Eul Tae-sik had returned, but it was clear that his realm had gone beyond the peak and reached the extreme.
This was not something that could be overlooked. Furthermore… … . Cheon Se-min brought him. This was an incident that made it urgent to re-evaluate Sangjae Palace.
“Ugh… … .”
Sowon-gi groaned as he grabbed Hyul-ra’s ankle that was resting on his chest. The more he did so, the more intense the pain became.
Hyulra glanced at him.
“I said it wouldn’t take long.”
A worthless guy. That arrogant gaze that hadn’t changed at all. But instead of getting angry, Sowon-gi clicked his teeth.
“Sowon-gi. You haven’t changed at all. You can’t even recognize the other person and you start talking like that.”
As Hyul-ra’s words fell, So-won-gi’s trembling grew louder.
“I told you clearly before. I told you to be prepared to die before you open your mouth. Did you forget?”
“Ugh… … . Heavenly Horse Lord… … .”
Hyul-ra raised her head and looked at Cheon Se-min.
I could tell what it meant without even having to hear it spoken.
Can I kill you? His eyes were clearly saying so.
“Umm… … .”
Cheon Se-min swallowed his breath and looked around.
Now I know that I’m really in danger.
Either you lose it all or you win it all. It was a gamble you could never get out of before.
“Cheon Se-min.”
When Yul-Cheon called, his head turned around. And he saw. A terrible anger hidden within calmness.
“Let me apologize.”
“What? What are you talking about?”
“I must have made you laugh so hard.”
“What? Ha, haha! Why? Are you trying to say that you want that guy to be saved? If that’s the case, then where… … .”
“No way. The lower body should be clear.”
Yul-Cheon raised his hand with his palm wide open. Then, a strong light burst out and soon it shot out as a huge beam of light.
Oh my god! Oh my god!
An explosion occurred with a loud noise where Hyulra had been standing.
