Absolute Regression

The 149th exam continues.

“Elder!”

When I saw the Hyeolcheon chopping block, I jumped up and shouted with joy. Have I ever been this happy about him since I met him?

I pulled out the Annihilation Blade, which was half stuck in the Blood Heaven Cutting Blade that had fallen to the floor.

“Why is someone who is old enough to persecute their juniors?”

Hyeolcheondoma scolded him sternly.

Then, instead of answering, a blood clot flew out.

Boom!

Hyeolcheondoma struck a blow and resolved the bloodshed. The Hyeolcheon chopping block was not pushed back at all due to internal strength. In particular, Hyeolcheon Doma, who had been training hard in martial arts recently, was sharper than ever.

Hyeolcheon Doma shouted in anger.

“You ugly old man! “Do you want to die?”

The Great Blade of Destruction swung wildly.

Fuaaaaaa!

The sword wind emitted from the sword tore through space and flew away.

Yang Che-ki did not dodge, but threw out his double sword and unleashed his strength.

Kwaaaaang!

The two people were pushed backwards with an ear-piercing explosion. The number who took a step back was the same. The power of Hyecheon Doma was so profound that it was not at all inferior to Yang Cheo-gi.

I immediately joined the fight. It would be a big deal if Hyeolcheondoma got hurt while fighting alone.

Clap la la la rock.

As he exercised the Seventh Style of the Flying Sword Technique, Yucheon-sik, the black magic sword split into twelve sword energies floating in the air. Even though he didn’t have much strength left, he deliberately showed off his strength and caused as many divisions as possible.

Seeing me trying to join the fight, Yang Cheo-gi decided that the situation was unfavorable, so he quickly kicked himself and disappeared from there.

“Don’t chase after me.”

I was worried that Hyeolcheondoma would chase after him, but he didn’t move.

“Even the phlegm won’t go away. A little while ago, I thought my arm was going to fall off while I was talking about work. “He is as strong as he is ugly.”

“Compared to that guy, you are a very handsome man!”

“No problem.”

“Elder!”

I tried to run up and hug him, but Hyeolcheondoma stepped on his steps and avoided him.

“disgusting.”

“How did you get here?”

“By chance while passing by.”

Could that be possible? Hyeolcheondoma was worried about me and was watching my movements.

“thank you. “If it weren’t for you, we would have died here.”

It wasn’t just Gongchisa. If he hadn’t come, I really wouldn’t know what the outcome of the fight would have been.

Extreme Soma slumped down in his seat. There was blood all over the mask, and there were wounds and blood all over the body.

“Elder, please stand guard for a moment.”

“Okay then.”

I placed my hand on Extreme Soma’s back and injected a ray of internal power into it. Slowly, I took care of his blood vessels, boosted his energy, and healed his internal injuries. As pure inner energy comforted his body, Extreme Soma immediately opened his eyes. Fortunately, the internal injuries were not that deep.

“Fortunately, the. “Because the internal injuries are not that deep.”

Extreme Soma looked at me. I can’t forget. The look in his eyes when he foresaw the end was full of regret.

We forget easily. That powerful moment that would change me and my life. After that time, we cannot live like that moment.

But I won’t do that. I don’t need anything else in my relationship with him now. All you have to do is not forget the regret of that moment when you foresaw death.

Extreme Soma, what about you? Do you feel the same way as me?

Extreme Soma just laughed. For the first time, I laughed with all my emotions. I laughed too.

okay. Drinking with Chuma and laughing with Soma. Then that’s it.

Next, Extreme Demon Soma expressed his gratitude to Blood Heavenly Demon. I bowed my head slightly without saying a word.

Hyeolcheondoma was also greeted with a simple nod of his head.

I took the opportunity and grabbed the blood chopping block.

“Elder! “I missed you.”

“Why are you doing this because it’s disgusting?”

I shook myself off like a child and fell as if running away. But how could I not know? It feels really good that he saved me too.

I spoke honestly as I retrieved the iron dagger that had fallen next to the body of the iron breaker.

“This fight was pretty tough.”

As he watched this, Hyeolcheondoma spoke to me.

“Did I tell you? “You are waking up the martial arts.”

“Where should I go and learn a lullaby?”

“Then, in the process of learning that, even those who don’t need to wake up will wake up.”

I spoke with confidence in response to Hyecheon Doma’s joke.

“Anyway, this is what happened. Tell everyone to wake up. Instead of waking up late and talking in your sleep, tell everyone to wake up later. Instead…”

I said after making eye contact with the two people.

“Please fight with me from now on.”

The Hyeolcheondoma that had been staring at me for a moment turned around and walked away, and the Extremely Evil Soma followed behind.

“You’re doing this again, you’re doing this again.”

I walked after them and got out of there.

* * *

Sima Ming, who held the emergency edict in his hand, held it with his hand. The fact that he walked faster than other times showed that what he brought with him was important.

Even while looking at the urgency, Geom Woojin, the Heavenly Demon, was as calm as usual.

Sima Ming arrived at the end of the red carpet and quickly delivered the news.

“This time, during the course of his mission, Gongja Lee clashed with the villains of Akingok.”

“A wicked song?”

“They are Geungnak Yo-hee, the Three Princes of Blood, Lord Yeomrasin, and Hyeolrangdo.”

“There are people who are quite capable.”

“It’s not just them. “Even monsters and iron slayers have appeared.”

When the names of the two people were mentioned, Geom Woojin was startled. The first four were not easy people, and the last two people were definitely not people to take lightly.

“They clashed with Lee Gongja and Extreme Evil Soma.”

“Was there even an evil soma?”

“yes. It seems like Extreme Soma is also involved in this matter.”

“so?”

After a while, Sima Ming reported.

“Li Gongzi and Extreme Evil Soma killed them all.”

“Even if the first four were okay, the last two wouldn’t have been easy.”

“It is said that Extreme Soma suffered internal injuries in the process. Fortunately, it is said that it is not a deep internal injury.”

“What about Mugeuk?”

“it’s okay.”

“The two of you killed the monster and the iron breaker?”

Unlike the calm Geom Woo-jin, Grand Warlord Sima Myeong was slightly reminded.

“Actually, I was very surprised when I saw the charter. A while ago, Lee Gongja and Extreme Evil Soma combined to kill the Sword Emperor, but at that time, there was only one opponent. “On the other hand, this time there were a lot of enemies so it wouldn’t have been easy.”

If there hadn’t been a dance with the sword dance at the Pungryu bar the other day, Geom Woo-jin would have been equally surprised. Geom Woojin was already surprised that day.

“Who is behind this?”

“The actual mastermind was Cheon Myeong-hoe, and those who took the lead in carrying out the work were Yang Cheo-gi and the evil Gok-ju.”

“Mrs. Yang? “The Yang wife from Baekmyeonmun?”

Geom Woojin knew about him.

“yes. “It seems like he committed this act because of his support from Extreme Soma.”

“You mobilized people who were too grandiose to say that?”

“According to Gongja Lee’s report, it is said that Lord Cheonmyeonghoe captured the evil people Gokju and Yang Cheogi. However, it seems that while recruiting Yang Cheo-gi, he secretly offered her the position of Wicked Gokju.”

“Why did you do that? From the point of view of Cheonmyeonghoeju, Wicked Gokju would be more useful in many ways than Yang Cheogi.”

“I think he definitely has an ulterior motive.”

“Please find out.”

“yes! “The Cheonmyeonghoe were more troublesome than we thought.”

Until now, I had only known the Cheonmyeonghoe as a group of people who sought unfair profits by pretending to be the Cheonmashinsyo. But now I see that it is a much bigger and stronger organization than that.

“What are you going to do? It may be difficult for a scientist to deal with. “Why don’t you just invite me in?”

But Geom Woojin shook his head.

“That mission was chosen by the child himself, wasn’t it? Then you have to endure it. Instead, they turned a blind eye to the Mazon intervention this time. And please increase the one-time support provided to our school to three.”

“All right.”

Since it was originally a mission that had to be done alone, the Mazons should not have intervened like this.

However, since a special situation has unfolded beyond the test, the difficulty level is adjusted accordingly.

“We will focus our information network and keep an eye on Cheonmyeonghoe.”

Geom Woojin nodded and said.

“Tell the second child that the test continues.”

* * *

We stayed in our school’s safe house, not far from the Yellow River Guest House where the fight took place.

I rested for a few days to recover my energy and heal my wounds. We cooked a proper meal, had a healthy breakfast, and got plenty of rest.

And today, a letter arrived from Cheonmajeon telling us to continue with the mission.

I thought he was my father too. Because he was the one who sent a message saying he was going to fight against the Murim Alliance and sent a reply telling him to fight well.

That night, as I was walking through the garden of the safe house, enjoying the quiet moonlight, I saw Hyeolcheon Doma practicing martial arts in the yard in the corner.

“Do you practice here too?”

“Is training a joke? “Choose a location.”

“When I see older people these days, I often think that becoming a mazon is not a joke.”

“Don’t lie. “They look at us funny.”

“You misunderstand!”

To be honest, when I first decided to take over the Mazons, I looked at them with disdain. But as I got closer to them, I gave up that thought a long time ago. These people are not easy at all.

That’s probably why Yang Cheo-gi didn’t become a majon.

Apart from his martial arts skills, there is nothing definitive about him becoming a mazon. Should I say it’s not attractive? Should I say I have no feelings? Should I say that the class is not good? There is something missing about him.

“I guess I didn’t know that Majon was scary because I only saw the drunkards I met these days.”

“You shouldn’t look down on that drunkard either.”

“Why are you worrying about me so much these days?”

“You don’t look worried? Whenever I get a chance, I fall into danger like this. I guess I’ll have to take the money out and buy some other clothing. “What about the speed attack group?”

“I took it.”

I didn’t say that I was fed extreme soma. If I had done that for no reason, my old man could have been fussing all night and not being able to sleep.

It was then.

“I ate that.”

When I turned around, I saw Extreme Soma walking out into the garden.

“Thanks to you, I survived.”

Then he bowed his head slightly. Seeing that polite attitude, the Hyeolcheondoma only glanced at me once and did not say anything to offend the extremely evil Soma.

“I hope you’re safe.”

How urgent would it have been to eat it all and fight? Why doesn’t the Blood Heavenly Demon know that? He would curse behind his back, calling him a conniving bastard, but he still acknowledged Extreme Soma’s skills.

“I’ll pay you back next time.”

“Before that, I need to clean the blood off that mask.”

“I plan to use it as is until this work is finished.”

I felt that I was slightly reminded of Extreme Soma. It wasn’t just a feeling of anger. For the first time in a long time, it was closer to the excitement I felt while fighting a life-or-death battle.

It was the same for me too. In the last fight, I experienced that my sword swing speed became faster. This was done out of desperation to save the evil Soma, but I had already exceeded the limit of what I could do. That’s important. That the limit has been broken. Since the Bicheon Sword Technique has already reached the Twelve Masters, this improvement is probably related to my overall martial arts level.

“I had a few rough times, but honestly, it felt amazing.”

Even the evil soma inside the mask looked like he agreed with what I said.

Even Blood Heavenly Chopping Demon nodded.

“Everyone goes crazy from the taste.”

It seems that Hyeolcheon Doma’s blood began to boil as he exchanged daily notes with Yang Cheo-gi.

“First of all, we have to catch Yang Yang.”

Not only did Mrs. Yang try to kill us, but she also tried to drive the disciples of Baekmyeonmun, the extremely evil soma recluse, to death. Extreme Soma will continue to target me in the future, so I have to deal with it as a top priority.

“Besides, he would have met the Cheonmyeonghoe’s lord in person, so it will be helpful in finding the Cheonmyeonghoe’s lord.”

Then Hyeolcheondoma asked.

“Do you know where that guy named Yang Cheo-gi is?”

“He must have been hiding in a bad song. Since the people we took there are dead, we have to report it, and it is also the safest place. Also, Yang Cheo-gi is aiming for the position of Wicked Gokju, so he must have gone back there.”

“I will help you.”

When Hyeolcheondoma said he would help, Extremely Evil Soma said something unexpected.

“I know a lot about bad songs.”

After a moment, he added:

“I was there once too.”

I asked in surprise.

“When were you there?”

“I was young. The master sent me there, telling me to cultivate evil intentions. “After three years, he came to get me.”

“What if he died there?”

“Then he must have found another disciple.”

“Did Soma survive the evil valley at such a young age?”

Extreme Soma nodded.

“After all, Akingok is also a place where people live. If there are masters like monsters, there are also people who don’t know martial arts at all. There are even people who are not from Akingok and take goods and do business there. Because there are a lot of leftovers. However, you should not let down your guard. “If you go in without any information, there is no place as scary as Akingok.”

I gave them both the contents of the letter sent from our school.

“I received a call from our school today. The mission to eliminate the Lord Cheonmyeonghoe is still valid, and support has been strengthened by allowing you to receive help from the main school three times instead. I would like to use one of them this time. The three of us can handle it, but the evil Gokju may step forward in the process. There is no need to take unnecessary risks. You are only using one opportunity anyway.”

He spoke vigorously with the spirit of pushing out all the bad songs if he had to.

“Let’s call Ilhwa Geomzon and Daechwima and go catch Yang Cheogi.”
