The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 96

A long silence ensued.

Gwimo leaned back on the chair and looked at Jinmu with a glass of wine.

“Kuh ha ha ha ha!”

“…”

Jinmu frowned at the sight of his mother smiling so loudly that the inside of the inn reverberated.

“What is it? notice? you? to me?”

“…”

“I told you to step down from the takeover? A snoring man who is only 10,000 years old…”

After laughing for a long time and stopping, what came back was a bleak sense of pressure.

Black eyes like an abyss.

It was as if the sky was looking down on him.

Faced with her eyes that seemed like his soul would be sucked in just by looking at them, Jinmu bit his teeth.

Was it like this?

I realized the power of harmony and thought that I was on an equal footing, but it was still a long way off. Seeing his mother’s true intentions in her eyes, Jinmu felt heavy and stuffy as if a thousand-year-old stone had been placed on his chest.

It wasn’t because there was a difference in strength.

If it had been before, the moment that gaze was directed at him, his whole body would have been shattered like powder and scattered in the air.

It is the unique spirit of the gwimo that makes the chest feel stuffy.

Aren’t emperors like that? It fills up the space just by existing, so it makes the other person bow their head.

Also, the old man is like that. The experience accumulated over many years melts into the body, and it has an atmosphere that makes the opponent feel intimidated with just a glance without knowing it.

It is for this reason that young warriors who are full of blood, like a lively jumping fish, lose their lives to experienced masters without being able to demonstrate their skills. Because I was intimidated and couldn’t exert my own strength.

It was Jinmu that came close to the truth in the beginning, but how could it surpass the power of time that Gwimo had?

Not only has it been only 10,000 years since he became a sage, but it hasn’t been long since he realized that he was the son of Mago and started using the power of harmony.

As she said… it was a snoring. Unable to distinguish between heaven and earth, they believe only in their strength and run amok.

But Jinmu knew. That you should be more relaxed at times like this.

The moment you show that you have shrunk, the beast will aim for the scruff of your neck with its sharp teeth. That’s why you need to relax and face your opponent with a calm mind.

Also, what is needed to make such a resolution is bravado!

“Whoa…”

“…?”

Jinmu let go of his clenched teeth, let out a deep sigh and buried himself in the chair. In the same posture as Gwimo, he pressed his body against the backrest and brought it so that the back of his head was tightly attached.

After that, I slowly crossed my legs and

put my hands on my knees.

“indeed.”

“….”

“I guess you didn’t put your age in the back hole?”

“what?”

“I mean, even in this yard, you can afford it.”

At Jinmu’s words, the tip of his mother’s nose twitched.

“But in the meantime, do you have all sorts of thoughts in your head?”

“…”

“What about the color of your eyes? What powers did that guy have? Can we win if we fight? Could it be that life is going to end like this?”

“This bastard…”

“Of course it must be. Because I don’t know. How was the beginning and how was Margot… I’ve never heard of it, or even if I heard it, I wouldn’t understand. is not it?”

Gwimo’s eyes tremble at Jinmu’s words.

…also.

I only poked it once, but it seems to have been properly caught.

Originally, the eyes are the windows of the heart, so the seven emotions of joy, anger, pleasure, anger, and desire are contained in them and the character is revealed as it is.

Some people train thoroughly to not even look at them, but how easy is that? No matter how much you try to hide it, it will be revealed in the middle of the day.

This is especially the case when the opponent, whom he considered insignificant as now, has grown enough to threaten him. Because my self-esteem would have been greatly hurt.

Now, since you’ve taken the initiative in the conversation, shall we try to be more relaxed?

“Actually, it doesn’t matter if we fight right now. You can never beat me.”

“what?”

“Did you tell me where the yin and yang power you inherited came from?”

“….”

“Harmony.”

This is what Jinmu realized, the power of the beginning.

In fact, your mother already knew. That I couldn’t define his power even though I kept looking.

What do you mean?

Jinmu was now expressing a strange presence.

It seemed to be holding something huge, and it seemed futile as if it were useless.

Even though it was right in front of my eyes, I couldn’t see it properly.

A being that cannot be measured. That was the case with Jinmu now.

This did not give me any confidence.

It wasn’t a question of winning or losing, but I didn’t even think that I could fight. Should I say it feels like facing an illusion?

“Negative Limits Positive Limits.”

“…”

“You think what you have is the strongest. However, it is only a mere imitation of one side of the origin. It boasts as if it holds the world in its hands, but it is an imitation and a mere imitation.”

Grinding my teeth until my ears made a noise, I glared at Jinmu.

“You seem so angry. But don’t. I am not young, but I have to save it to chew, bite, taste, and enjoy it.”

“…”

The mother’s lips began to tremble as if her anger had soared to the top of her head when she was treated like an old man.

As planned.

Aren’t you the one to step down with words in the first place?

You will probably fight soon.

Jinmu had to defeat her, and he had to prepare for victory.

Jipiji (知彼知己). once you need to know

What kind of powers she has and how to respond.

So it’s good to scrape it to the deepest part and put the medicine on it. As soon as the fight starts, make her take out everything and attack.

“He’s very arrogant.”

“Because it is worth doing.”

“…”

“So choose. I will give you just one chance.”

“opportunity?”

“Yes chance. Originally, I came with the intention of wiping out the boundaries, but I feel sorry for you, who doesn’t know anything.”

“…”

“If you withdraw from the human world right now and accept my condition, I’ll just go back.”

Jinmu deliberately provoked the ear hair by making an expression that was unmatched in spite of.

Kwaaaak.

“…!”

Gwimo’s hands on the table were clasped tightly, and the air began to vibrate finely as if in response to her anger. It finally started to boil like water in a pot.

It was time for Jinmu, who felt that the heavy pressure was pressing down on his whole body and thought that an attack would begin soon, unknowingly preparing to escape.

By the way… Huh?

“Crazy.”

“…”

Suddenly, the ghost smiled and the pressure disappeared without a trace.

“Did you mean to shake me up to make a children’s song and make me mess around? You seem like a shallow guy.”

“…”

“I can’t believe I’m just going to fall for that number. But I also know why you are making such shallow tricks.”

“…”

“They must have wanted to see flaws in me. While I’m mad and running amok like a mad boar.”

Jinmu clicked his tongue as if he was going to die in regret at the appearance of his mother, who had regained her cool in an instant.

“Stupid bastard. Who do you think I am in front of you?”

“…”

Damn, it’s not easy.

Before the fight, I put the medicine up close and tried to look for loopholes, but I didn’t expect that even a wolf would quickly regain its composure.

But it’s already gone.

The lid was opened before boiling, but didn’t you see the intense heat that passed through the mother’s eyes?

While Governor Yi Wang posted the medicine…

“I! Ear…”

“A greedy old woman.”

“….”

He probably wanted to say, ‘It’s a ghost!’

When he even pointed his finger and cut off the words, the noble mother’s mouth hung open and hardened like a stone.

“Who do you see? it looks like that in my eyes A bad-tempered fucking old woman who is not satisfied with the world, and intends to attack and devour the human world with the intention of eating even the liver of a flea.”

“….”

“It’s like being scolded when you’re all old and lost, what kind of greed is that? When you’re old enough, you’ll retire to the back room and don’t think about doing tricks while changing the poop diapers of the young demons… It’s a waste to be called a tsk tsk gwimo.”

“…”

Words of contempt poured out of Jinmu’s mouth at random.

Just blankly… Gwimo’s unfocused eyes, which were staring at Jinmu, flared up again.

Deed deed deed.

The entire space vibrates as if collapsing.

Jinmu smiled brightly as he saw the face color of Gwimo, who was holding the table with both hands, changed from colorful to bloody.

done.

The water in the pot started to boil again. hotter than before.

“This… damn son of a bitch!”

“…”

“I will kill you!”

Kwaaang!

Gwimo, whose eyes had completely gone, overturned the table, and a huge amount of demonic energy gushed out of her body.

* * *

After the door to the space where Jinmu and Gwimo were located was closed, Yeoui and Geumhon, who had treated Bukridocheon, waited with bated breath, tense.

Due to Sunjo’s disappearance, the palace was collapsing, but it did not pose a threat to them. Because they had enough strength to keep a piece of land on their feet.

However, because the space was separated at some point, I couldn’t even feel Jinmu’s presence, so I was worried because I couldn’t tell if he was alive or dead.

“Is it taking too long?”

“Um…”

“You’re not dead already, are you?”

“no way? If that was the case, wouldn’t your mother have already appeared?”

“…Damn it, I’m sorry. I wish I could just die.”

“yes?”

Geum-hon blinked at the sight of the woman who was sincerely regretting her self-talk.

“what?”

“No, because the subject was omitted… the meaning is a bit ambiguous.”

“….”

“So the target that has to die is…”

“Of course! deaf.”

“Isn’t that right?”

“cancer! my dear, my dear. What are you thinking about so deeply?”

“….”

No matter how much Yeoui tried to pretend, it was the same thing that trust could not be lost.

And in fact, he himself… Because he had a wish that the target of death would be someone other than his mother.

Just a little dusty?

Then, when he was startled and denied to himself that it was not him, he saw a strange sight.

“uh? That’s…”

“Huh?”

What she saw as she turned her head to where Geumhon was looking was a haze.

Due to the scorching heat…

“The ground… Eh! hot!”

The woman who had been staring blankly jumped up in surprise at the warmth she felt on the soles of her feet.

The same was true of Geumhon and Bukri Docheon. No matter who said it first, he jumped up.

Chi profit.

The ground is boiling. Not just a part of it, but the entire wide womb was emitting heat.

“What is this?”

“Hmm, the air is too hot?”

“I know?”

The moment I felt the air so warm that it was difficult to breathe, the snow in North Lidocheon became the size of a lantern.

“Avoid the blood…”

“Huh?”

“what?”

A face of astonishment.

The appearance of Bukridocheon, which began to tremble like an aspen tree, was starkly different from before.

Chills in this heat?

However, the golden marriage and the woman soon realized.

The fact that what was in Bukri Docheon’s eyes was extreme fear.

“What a pair! Get away, you bastards!”

“…!”

The two of them, who had been staring blankly at the back of Bukridocheon as they rushed out of the womb, screaming as if throwing up, started running without saying who was first.

Woozijik! Kwaaaaaang!

Suddenly, cracks like threads appeared in the air, and the space was shattered like a field of ice hit by a stone.
