Episode 439: The man who became a drone again.
The leader sat down at the head table, looked around at the Grand Duke, Ilmajo, and his coachman Guogom (菊劍) and said.
“One day.”
“yes.”
“Return to Gwangmyeong Usa, assisting the vice principal.”
Ilmajo answered.
“All right.”
It was a natural greeting because Ilmajo was the Grand Duke’s maternal residence. The leader looked at Howie, who had assisted him for a long time.
“National sword.”
“Yes, leader.”
“You take charge of Gwangmyeongjwasa. “Now you don’t have to work as my escort or driver.”
The national prosecutor barely answered with a puzzled expression.
“All right.”
I had no choice but to take on the position of left priest since he was the head of a sect with which I could not communicate at all.
But how can people not be surprised? For a long time, the National Sword was supposed to be the eyes and five senses of the religious leader when the religious leader fell asleep, but it was clearly an embarrassing greeting for him to be elevated to the throne for his merits.
The leader looked at the archduke.
“There is no set deadline. “Until I am told otherwise, you will serve as vice president and oversee both the inner and outer parties.”
“All right.”
“Ask a question.”
the archduke asked.
“If you say you are the vice president, you will be responsible for not only internal activities but also external affairs… … .”
“Something outside?”
“For example, the old headquarters, Jinhong Island, and Ming Tian Wei are the same forces.”
“do it yourself.”
“yes.”
The leader looked at the small box on the table and said.
“The name is closed-door training, but there will be many times when you train outside rather than staying at the school. Discuss internal matters with Ilmajo. If you discuss external matters with the National Prosecutor’s Office, there will be no major problems. Especially Ilmajo.”
“Yes, leader.”
“If you make a fuss while handling internal affairs, I will come back and reprimand you.”
Ilmajo bowed his head.
“I will.”
Everyone thought that the leader’s attitude had changed somehow, but no one was able to express that thought out loud.
While everyone was watching, the archduke looked at the religious leader’s white hair.
“Sir, what happened to your hair… … .”
The leader answered briefly.
“It’s turning black from the roots again.”
“Oh, congratulations.”
The Grand Duke, who was licking his lips, eventually asked what he was really curious about.
“Is Hao Wenzhou alive? “It is difficult to trace whether he is dead or alive.”
Only then did the religious leader’s expression change slightly.
“Of course he’s alive.”
The archduke asked with wide eyes.
“Why did you keep me alive? “He is a dangerous person to keep alive.”
“… … .”
The religious leader looked around at the gathered people. The only person who truly knew the results of the Hwasan Non-Geom was the Howie Guk-geom, who had participated as a coachman here.
Suddenly, the leader sighed slightly and rested his chin on his left hand.
“How did you keep him alive? “This is what I want to ask Hao Wenju.”
The question should have been reversed.
Why did Hao Wenzhou spare himself?
The religious leader reported the results.
“I lost at the volcano.”
Ilmajo and the Grand Duke asked back at the same time.
“yes?”
“yes?”
The sect leader confirmed this to the Archduke, who was so embarrassed that he looked around.
“I was defeated by Hao Wenzhou. Who would spare anyone?”
The Grand Duke said with a smile.
“Why do you say that? If you’ve ever played a game of Go in a volcano, I understand. You are stronger than when I last saw you. Of course, it must have been a matter of life or death. “If you don’t feel comfortable telling me why you saved me.”
“Vice leader, stop talking nonsense.”
The religious leader spoke to the National Prosecutor.
“You talk.”
The National Sword spoke to the Grand Duke in a cautious tone.
“Vice leader, the leader has been defeated.”
“Kook escort, don’t lie.”
“no. Of course, no one has seen Bimu. After ascending to a secluded part of the volcano and competing, he came down with Munju. As the vice-religion leader said, the rector came down in a state of heightened state, but it is said that Mun-ju won in the end. Why should I tell you a lie?”
Now, Ilmajo and the Grand Duke just blinked.

The religious leader asked.
“Is that so hard to believe?”
“yes.”
The leader continued speaking while lightly touching his white hair with his fingers.
“Am I the only one who will do it?”
“hmm.”
The Grand Duke looked at his maternal uncle, Ilmajo.
“Woo Sa clearly participated in the first half of the Hwasan study. “You must have checked who was there.”
“yes.”
“In hindsight, it was Usa’s opinion that even if all those gathered at the volcano joined forces, they could not be the leader’s opponents.”
“yes. That’s right.”
“however?”
Ilmajo answered.
“sorry. “It’s hard for me to believe it because I couldn’t see the second half.”
The excited archduke said to the religious leader.
“Master. “Please explain properly.”
“Are you going to explain my defeat in detail with my own words?
The Archduke made eye contact with the religious leader and quickly lowered his head.
“sorry.”
“I understand it’s hard to believe.”
“yes.”
“While competing on the volcano, Munju’s level reached Hwaan Geumjeong and he lost.”
“Is there a state called Hwaan Geumjeong in Gangho?”
“No way. It’s just that while competing with me, I reached the ultimate state and that manifested as Hwaan Geumjeong. If you look at it from a hundred-way perspective, it’s the level of a martial god, and if you look at it from a magical perspective, it’s the level of a demon god, so there will be no rivals during Moonju’s lifetime.”
“hmm.”
“Having no enemies means that even if the old headquarter does its best to unite with us, the result will be the same, so don’t do anything unnecessary. “Keep in mind the lions on the left and right.”
“All right.”
The Grand Duke said in a bitter tone.
“I should have killed him when I saw him at the Blood Night Palace.”
“Are you saying it’s my fault?”
The Archduke fell silent.
The leader said.
“Defeat is defeat, but in the end, it was Moonju who helped me overcome my current limitations. “Even if Cheonak and Shingae joined forces, they couldn’t accomplish this.”
The Archduke and Ilmajo looked worried, wondering what this meant. But the leader did not bother to explain.
“The two men who were not afraid of me while I was driving Gangho were Cheonak and Shingae. Hao Wenju was added in Blood Night Palace. Moreover, his skills at that time were far below the level of Cheonak and Shingae.”
“Was there sufficient justification for keeping him alive simply because he was not afraid of the cult leader?”
The cult leader laughed.
“By my standards, these three are the strongest people in the world. Below him, the Sword Demon and the Blood Demon were independent men. “The rest are people who can’t even overcome their own fears, so what do you expect from them?”
“I had several opportunities to kill you, but don’t you regret it?”
The leader closed his eyes for a moment.
“… … .”
What the sect leader was trying to explain was that people like Cheonak, Shingae, and Lee Jaha would eventually become stronger, but when he heard the same question from the Archduke, he seemed to not understand it at all.
In that case, it was not the leader but the Archduke who was obsessed with the word defeat.
The sect leader was inspired by Samjae and thought that if the Grand Duke trained deeply, he would one day rise to the level of Samjae and compete with the world’s masters.
A person who makes no effort to distinguish between life and death, and who only wishes to become stronger even when faced with death… … .
This was the moment when I confirmed that the only people of that level were the cult leader himself, Cheonak, Shingae, Lee Jaha, and Geomma, so I couldn’t help but be deeply disappointed.
The leader opened his eyes.
“Of course, I didn’t expect Lee Ja-ha to easily overcome me. In fact, even after defeat, it was difficult to find out the cause. “There were variables.”
“What is it?”
“Singae is a man with no desire for fame or material desires. If he had conveyed all of his inner strength to Hao Wen-ju like the beggars of openness did, he would have been worthy of being my opponent in Huashan. However, the inner strength of Shingae, whom I met later, was also fine.”
“then… … .”
“Wenju rose from the bottom alone and reached the level of a martial god. A man like that would have saved his life twelve times over. “I’m not a religious believer, but how can I kill someone like this in a world full of bugs?”
“… … .”
The religious leader said while looking around at the people gathered.
“So, Elder Heo must have also been defeated by Munju. “I also believed that if I gave it time, it would at least be at the level of Cheonak or Shingae.”
“Did you not expect that Hao Wenju would even surpass the leader of the cult?”
“It is difficult. If I were God, I would have guessed this. “I probably didn’t expect it myself.”
“What I want to say is, why did you give me so much time?”
“Why do you think I shouldn’t give you my time?”
The leader asked back.
The religious leader, who had treated people fairly until now, gave time to the Four Heavenly Kings, his sons, the old left and right lions, as well as Lee Ja-ha. There is no other reason. This is because he has been practicing martial arts longer than these people.
It wasn’t fair when they fought.
The leader, feeling that his words were not making any sense, lowered his gaze and looked at the assistant leader.
The Archduke said while looking at the box on the table.
“What I don’t understand is that Munju is also someone who has stepped into the magic world, so why is the outcome not life or death?”
The son could not bear to ask his father why he came back alive, but the meaning was vaguely conveyed.
The leader spoke calmly because he knew what he meant.
“We saved each other’s lives a lot. “Munju, you took care to save your brothers.”
“Yes, of course.”
“I didn’t touch Ilyanghyeon in my reply, so Munju ended up pushing Hwasan’s fight into chaos.”
“He’s not the kind of father who would fight.”
The cult leader sighed.
“They even prevented my suicide.”
“Is there a reason?”
The leader answered his son’s question with half of his emotions gone in a dejected tone.
“It seems like he thought the succession structure was not stable.”
“Why is Hao Wenju worried about that?”
The religious leader looked at the Archduke.
“I wasn’t worried about you. “You weren’t worried about me.”
“then… … .”
“He worked hard to become a martial god, but he must have been worried that he would get angry at your foolish moves and turn into a demon god. Ilmajo and the National Sword… … .”
“Yes, leader.”
“Please take this into consideration and advise the vice-president.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Lee Ja-ha is the type of person who chooses the survival of his allies and accepts the existence of Gyo as is. I’m not the type of person to just uproot myself just because I think differently. You three should not mess with Lee Ja-ha through despicable tactics, but instead develop your skills to deal with Lee Ja-ha first. “That is my wish.”
“yes.”
“If you touch it, even the old headquarters will be engulfed in fire. It is true that I have given time to Ijaha, but thanks to that, Ijaha is giving time to you. This is because even though he has attained the status of a martial god, he is not the type of person who would necessarily teach religion. “Think carefully about what you have lost and what you have gained.”
The Archduke pointed to the box on the table.
“If you give me the chance, I will prepare in earnest.”
The religious leader ordered the left and right messengers.
“You stay out.”
“Yes, leader.”
The sect leader remained with the Archduke and stared at the box in question. Because he was a son who still had a lot to teach, the leader was patient again and opened his mouth.
“Vice-priest.”
“yes.”
“Unstable drugs may be effective, but they also have significant side effects.”
“I know.”
“When did the old headquarters tell you to take it?”
“It contains a phrase from the old headquarters that tells you to prepare and take it when a crisis arises in which the Jeongsama can unite and destroy the religion.”
“Is now the time?”
“Not really, but in order to defeat Hao Wenju… … .”
The leader said as he felt his hair turning white again.
“Son.”
“yes.”
“At your level, even if you take this, you won’t be able to defeat Hao Wenzhou. And the assistant leader is not the leader. “When I finish closing the temple, Ilmajo, Gukgeom, and you will all work together to decide on the next religious leader.”
“yes?”
“why.”
“no.”
“My brothers were born as the son of a cult leader and were unable to become the cult leader. You are no exception. The newly appointed left and right messengers are in charge of important responsibilities in the cult, so do not assassinate them. Use your skills to suppress them and prove it. Get out.”
“All right.”
As the Archduke recklessly reached for the box containing the Heavenly Jade, the religious leader spoke.
“Leave it.”
“Yes, then let’s go out.”
The leader, left alone, recalled the last dance that took place in the volcano. Why did he survive with the shame of such defeat? It was because of the believers that he survived and returned to church without having to give up his life.
Among those believers were sons.
However, the son’s attitude only reflected the perception that he was a defeated father.
A situation that makes you laugh.
As the leader was left alone, he thought of heavenly evil to calm his mind. As he remembered his intense and pure desire for martial arts, a smile slowly appeared on his lips.
I thought of Shingae. A person who seems to be looking at an old ancestor who is the furthest away from himself. I couldn’t help but snort when I remembered Shin-gae’s bright smile when I went to tell him the news of his retirement.
Next, the Sword Demon, who he thought was the man most similar to him, came to mind.
Between loyalty and independence, pride and fear, I thought of a blood demon with half a head.
And I thought for a long time about Hao Wen-ju, who could erase all of this existence.
Truly a madman.
I thought he was the biggest lunatic of all time.
When I thought of the enemies in my life, my complicated mind calmed down again.
“after… … .”
How much stronger can you become in this closed tube training?
With my arms folded, I planned in advance the mental and physical training I would need to do during the closing training.
If the results are good, we will compete with Hao Wen-ju again.
I decided that if I wasn’t performing well, I should take a long break.
After organizing his thoughts, the leader took the box on the table and headed to the sponsorship.
The religious leader who opened the box in the back garden glared at Cheonok. He first erased all his worries and concerns about his religion, disapproved of his subordinates, and even erased the few remaining concerns about his son.
I looked at Cheonok, thinking only of Hao Wenju, the most powerful enemy of my life. The more he thought about it, the less he could clearly figure out how he had defeated him and why. If you think deeply about something that is difficult to find out, you will fall into a state of confusion, so you put that curiosity aside in an instant.
Suddenly, I injected true energy into the box I was holding in my right hand, and the heavenly jade that emerged from the box turned into a small smoke and then turned into dust and disappeared.
The religious leader, who felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort, looked around and glared at the sky again.
Was it a mistake?
For an extremely brief moment, I felt as if my entire existence was disappearing. She felt so faint that she took a deep breath to regain her composure.
The religious leader erased all his thoughts like that.
Just like I once did, I became a warrior again.
