I Reincarnated as the Crazed Heir Chapter 84

Episode 84: Behind the Scenes

“What are you doing? You’re not letting it out.”

The man in the windbreaker was still smiling. Bisaiq imagined tearing him apart again and again.

But reality doesn’t always work out as planned. Her trembling hands reached into her bosom and took out a golden diamond-shaped piece.

A card full of strange characters.

It’s the same card that Yasen, the Oirat leader, gave to Ma Cheon So.

“Don’t be so upset. Go on a trip somewhere. You should enjoy life while you’re alive.”

Bisek bit his lips. Travel? Don’t make me laugh. I’m not the type of person to suggest such romanticism. This is a clear death sentence.

It was clear that soon the Grim Reaper would come to kill him.

thud!

“Please… …save me.”

Bisek knelt on the floor. Dying like this was not in his plans.

“Ha, why are you like this? So nagging.”

“Please… …save me.”

“A life like a burrow. Wouldn’t it be enough to live as the Lord of Gwangmyeongcheonma?”

It wasn’t enough. It was still far away. Bisaiku ran to the man while kneeling and grabbed him tightly by the windbreaker.

It is a truly heartbreaking sight. However, their relationship was never one in which such feelings could be shared between them.

It’s not something to be believed.

“Daeju. Even bugs exist because they are necessary. But strangely, there are too many useless people. That’s why they die. Isn’t that strange?”

“No, it’s not strange. You’re all right. But… … I just want to tell you that I’m still useful.”

When Bisek raised his head, he felt a glare in his eyes.

Then the man scratched the tip of his chin, sat down on the desk, and said.

“I’ll give you three chances. Not for long. Try to convince me.”

“The one who made Birugol like that is Heukhwaseong.”

“I know that.”

“There was a small cult leader there too.”

“That too.”

Bisaiks stopped talking for a moment and swallowed hard.

This is your last chance.

If you disappoint me again, all that’s left is a miserable death.

His mouth opened slowly again.

“Eul Tae-sik… … . The former Gwangmyeong Cheonma Daeju Eul Tae-sik was there.”

“Hoo… … .”

The man showed interest. Hope appeared in Bisek’s eyes. He continued to speak without stopping, lest his excitement be dulled.

“The guy who was living like a wreck there just disappeared. This is definitely… … .”

As Yeonshin Bisei’s words continued, the man listened silently for a while and then snapped his fingers and stood up from his seat.

“Okay. Let’s believe it one more time.”

“Thank you. Hurry up and take the drugs… … .”

“That’s fine. Go to the Geumbong Elder’s House. Go and help him.”

“……All right.”

“Let’s leave the defeat to him for a while.”

“thank you.”

Bisek nodded with a grave look. The man stopped walking outside and threw the leather pouch from his bosom.

Then, as if a cloud was floating slowly, it came up to Bisaiik and fell down with a thud.

“The Lion of Light must be in perfect health before the Great Heavenly Festival of the Great Heavenly Kingdom begins. Please put it in.”

After the man left, Bisaiq sighed and sat back down in his chair.

“Ha… … I didn’t know you would save my life again. Hehe. Are you going to pity me until the end? You bastard. That’s why it’s not okay. You’re such a loser.”

His cowardly appearance was nowhere to be found, and he muttered with a bitter smile.

Whatever the reason, the madness and obsession towards Eul Tae-sik clearly seemed to be going beyond the limits.

* * *

Gasp, gasp. The heavy breathing spread through the trees like roots.

The man, drenched in sweat, looked around anxiously, wondering what he was so afraid of.

His name is Do Chung-soo.

He was a man who came to inquire about Pungryongdae under the orders of the military leader Zhuge Liang and others, and ended up staying in Cheonsan.

“Ha… … . I’m crazy. Where the hell am I and why am I back here again?”

Smoke was rising from the foot of the mountain, and houses were seen lined up.

Only then did he lean against the tree and let out a sigh.

The root of the problem was that I couldn’t ignore Samho’s request.

How can you look for a sect leader in Cheonsan without even knowing the way?

It was an extremely reckless plan.

“Cheer up. Isn’t it a stroke of luck that I’m alive? The gods of heaven and earth haven’t abandoned me yet… .”

Do Chung-soo shook his buttocks and got up and headed towards the village.

He was not always so righteous.

I was just an optimistic and ordinary person.

He never forgot that he was a human being, and he was not cruel enough to turn away from the person dying pitifully before his eyes.

“Take a pair of the latest boots imported from the Western Regions! There are also some top-quality boots from the Northern Yuan!”

As we entered the village, we were greeted by peddlers and a sea of people, noisy and chatty.

Do Chung-soo looked down the street, lost in his thoughts and oblivious to the unfamiliar sight.

‘Is the Demonic Cult also a place where people live? Even those who have mastered martial arts are worse than soybeans in a drought.’

It was so crowded that my worries about my identity being discovered felt unfounded.

From the colorful people to the Uyghurs and monks of the Potala Palace, a variety of costumes were in harmony.

Minggyo can be said to be a deformed group where religion, royal power, and martial arts are intertwined.

A layperson belonging to the people.

The Seven Great Palaces and the Presbyterian Church, which can be seen as government offices.

Gwangmyeonggung and Seonghwagung, which are praised for their religious significance.

And the peerless masters who have mastered martial arts.

All of these things come together to form society.

To some, it may be looked down upon as a cult of demons, a cult of the Heavenly Demon, or the end of the devil, but to those who stay there, it is a satisfactory place to live and a garden.

Do Chung-soo stood there blankly for a while, stunned by the sight that was so different from what he had expected, until he bumped into a passerby and came to his senses.

“Are you going to keep that eye on me?”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

I was just standing there. I thought it was a pointless nitpick, but given the circumstances, I bowed my head and apologized without realizing it.

And when I looked at my opponent, I saw that he was a middle-aged man with a rusty topknot.

Judging from his appearance, he didn’t seem to have learned any martial arts.

“Stay still.”

The pedestrian who had been bumped into began to scratch his head and look up and down.

Cold sweat ran down my face. Did he recognize me? Was there a trace of blood? My tension doubled.

“Are you a hunter by any chance?”

Do Chung-soo stared blankly for a while with his mouth shut at the sudden question.

Dong-in refers to people living in Haenam or Gwangxi regions.

His skin is dark and his face is wide, but he is a native of Beijing.

“Oh, well… … yes. That’s right.”

But Do-chung-soo, who had no one to lean on, smiled awkwardly and nodded.

“Hey, they say the four seas are the same, but I never thought I would meet my classmate here! I am Yoo Nam-seok, who used to live in Gwangdong.”

Although he felt a little nervous as he was being held by the hand, Do Chung-soo greeted him happily without showing it.

Then he felt the pulse and examined his opponent. Phew. Fortunately, he doesn’t have any internal energy. This person is just a commoner.

“Nice to meet you. I am… … Doga.”

“Haha, this is really nice. Ah, let’s go to a street stall instead of doing this. I’m in a good mood since I met someone from the same hometown. Let’s treat them to a meal.”

“… … Thank you.”

When Do Chung-soo nodded briefly, Yoo Nam-seok led him into a nearby street stall and sat down.

They say that even if you fall into a tiger’s cave, there is a way to survive. As the salty and mouth-watering scent spread, my tension began to relax.

“It looks like you haven’t had a proper meal. Well… … , these days, even the palace is locked, and in the palace, they kill anyone they come across, so where can you live? Oh, please bring me two plates of dumplings. And a bottle of alcohol, too.”

Although I didn’t say anything, Yoo Nam-seok thankfully took care of it and guaranteed my identity.

“Oh, thank you. But you go around killing people in Salgung. What is that… … .”

“This person… … ?”

Do Chung-soo felt a sting after asking. Was there a reason why they say that if you don’t know, you’re a spy? If he had asked about something that everyone already knew, it would have been a disaster.

However, Yoo Nam-seok did not disappoint expectations.

“You came here after rolling around in the mountains because you had nothing to eat? Don’t go around talking about Heukhwaseong or anything these days. Not long ago, Mr. Park of the mill was in trouble… … .”

Yoo Nam-seok’s excitement did not subside and he continued his speech even after the lecturer came out.

It was said that in just six days, dozens of people died or disappeared in Jangsi-byeon alone. And it wasn’t just this place that happened.

Although the exact number is not known, it is said that the number would exceed several hundred if other places are included.

Everyone was keeping quiet, but most people thought it was an act of murder.

Pick while walking down the street. Pick while taking a dump. Pick while snoring.

This is the kind of thing that is done when you threaten to kill someone on a grand scale. You can’t help but cry when they die without anyone knowing.

“As you said, you should come in with your feet up! If you’re guilty, catch them and reveal the truth. If you just let them die, how can you close your eyes in resentment? Isn’t that right, Do So-hyeop?”

“I guess so.”

“I’m so scared I can’t live. I wish he would show up and get rid of everything.”

Even after finishing speaking, Yoo Nam-seok continued to grumble and couldn’t calm down for a long time.

At least he was able to speak out because he had a straightforward personality. Others were too afraid to speak out and just suffered inside.

This was the public sentiment of Myeonggyo at the time.

Do Chung-soo stuffed the dumplings tightly into his stomach and drank a few glasses of the alcohol that Yoo Nam-seok offered him. The strong scent spread pleasantly to the tip of his nose.

When your body and mind become warm and your boundaries are broken down.

Do Chung-soo asked with a very serious look in his eyes.

“You So-hyeop. Can I ask you one thing?”

“What? Where I live? That’s okay. We’ll meet again sometime when the time comes.”

Do Chung-soo burst into laughter at the cheerful appearance. Then he shook his head and said.

“Do you know where the little sect leader is?”

“Scholar? Why are you looking for that scoundrel? He’s probably in Giru or catching that guy.”

Even without listening for long, I immediately realized what the reputation of the cult leader was. The question of whether I had come forward for no reason lingers in my mind again.

“I have something to tell you. I must go.”

“Oh, really. He’s a strange person.”

“Why is that?”

“No, that’s right. What should I say to the sect leader who has lost his bond?”

“… … It’s really important to me.”

“Oh, that’s okay. If you get involved and something goes wrong later, it will be bad for the leader’s personality… … . Oh my.”

When Yoo Nam-seok waved his hand, Do Chung-soo bit his lower lip and looked around.

There are only two people there, the street vendor and Yoo Nam-seok, who seem neither interested nor listening.

Now, I had to ask for help from Iza somehow.

“… … I have something to tell you.”

“ask?”

“Yes. I must tell you that.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Don’t ask me any more questions. I can’t tell you the details. But just know that this is very important. Please. This is what I’m begging you.”

Do Chung-soo got up from his seat and bowed his head, taking the lottery ticket.

Then Yoo Nam-seok answered awkwardly.

“Oh, really. You’re such an innocent gentleman. You don’t even have the heart to ask, yet you’re talking so smoothly when it’s so important?”

“Can you help me… please?”

“… … Well, but. Alone? Where did the person who asked go?”

“… … is dead.”

“Really? How come.”

“When I asked him, he was already in critical condition… … So please help me. So that I can convey his last words.”

“I guess I could go to Ilbong Somyeonggung. But, I can’t go.”

“Why?”

“Because of the killing, you know. They’re everywhere.”

“There will be a way. There must be a way. Help me!”

Do Chung-soo spoke with a certain degree of faith and will.

At this, Yoo Nam-seok licked his lips and turned his head towards the store owner.

And then he said it as if he felt sorry.

“I guess this is it?”

“I guess so.”

Do Chung-soo tilted his head, not understanding the situation.

“What are you doing now?”

“What are you doing, you idiot? I told you. There are murders everywhere.”

“What is that… … ugh!”

I became confused by the chilling feeling spreading through my entire body.

The tightly blocked danjeon was like a hole had been drilled through it, causing internal energy to spread out in all directions.

“San… … Poison?”

Sure enough, the color drained from my face and I felt like I had to get out of here right away.

However, the store owner and Yoo Nam-seok, who were already blocking the way, were smiling faintly as if it was impossible.

“What is Dong-in? You can tell just by looking at him that he’s Korean.”

“Uh… … Why… … .”

“You’re so reckless. Those Jeongpa guys are so naive and foolish, that’s the problem. Do you have to learn martial arts to survive? You just have to be able to kill. Tsk tsk.”

“iced coffee…….”

“Don’t worry, get some sleep and wake up. I will bring you back to the palace in good health.”

“Ah, no… … .”

I tried to hold on to my senses again and again, but the poison spreading throughout my body was relentless.

Thud. Finally, his eyes closed and he fell to the floor.

Yoo Nam-seok looked down at him and laughed.

“Do you think that killing is so funny? You’re so foolish.”

Do Chung-soo disappeared while being carried by him.

The street stalls reopened as if nothing had happened.

The streets were still bustling with people.

There was murder everywhere.
