Side Story Episode 141. Shadow of the Giant (8)
Shock!
The members who finished the battle neatly with the last sword immediately reorganized their ranks.
“Whew. Phew.”
“Gasp!”
The roughness of exhaled breathing differed depending on the individual level.
What is important is that everyone at Gwangmadae had a hard time. It was inevitable that he would limit his breathing to the extreme and then pull out his power moment by moment and release a powerful force.
It was a practice not much different from swinging a sword underwater. Even those with deep inner strength could not help but breathe heavily.
Meanwhile, Hwang Moo-seok was fine. There was no disruption in breathing at all.
Doheon nodded and said.
“It was very good. “I can see my skills improving every day.”
Although he was not stingy with praise, Doheon was the type of person who spoke without hesitation if something was wrong.
Such a great master speaks as clearly as nails. A look of pride appeared on the faces of the crew.
“Thank you for your hard work. Everyone disperse.”
“Jonmyeong!”
This is the official work of Gwangmadae.
The moment they felt freed from official duties, the members sat down or bent down and took a deep breath. Even though they are experts in neigong and do not lose their breathing unless they are seriously injured, the fact that they do this means that their physical expenditure was so great that it was comparable to that of internal injuries.
Do-heon turned his gaze to Lee Cheon-sang.
“Shall we go in?”
“yes.”
It was then.
“My lord.”
Doheon turned his head.
It was Hwang Moo-seok.
“What’s going on?”
“I want to dance.”
An unexpected look appeared on Doheon’s face.
That wasn’t all. Unlike the crew, the team members, who were quite conscious, also looked at Hwang Moo-seok with an expression of surprise.
“You mean me?”
“no.”
Hwang Moo-seok pointed to Lee Cheon-sang with his hand.
“I want to dance with that guy.”
“… … !”
Doheon’s eyes deepened.
Hwang Moo-seok looked at Lee Cheon-sang and opened his mouth.
“I heard what you said. It was my fault for not concentrating properly and wasting precious training time. I should have focused more on training. But whatever the reason, I heard that there are many people who are stubborn.”
“… … .”
“It was a statement that did not require much thought, but the intention behind it was clear that there were many wrong people.”
It’s unreasonable.
Doheon understood immediately. There was no need for Hwang Moo-seok to say what he said now, and whatever he said in the future would be nothing more than nonsense.
Hwang Moo-seok’s eyes burned red.
“I don’t know what the intention is, but it is the law that you have to be light in your mouth and heavy in your actions. I don’t know your intentions, but if your eyes are that sharp, your martial arts skills should be excellent as well. Let everyone here know that your words are true… … .”
“First.”
Do-heon’s heavy voice cut off Hwang Moo-seok.
“First apologize for your harsh words.”
“yes?”
“This guy is an acquaintance of mine, but at the same time, he is a member of the Yasha Spirit and at the same time, he is in a position close to the Vice Spiritual Lord under the Lord Blood Demon.”
“… … !”
“The Yasha Commandery lives in the outer castle, but since it was created as a unit directly under the leader, its status is no less than that of the New Education University. “Each state is at the level of commander or higher and shares the work of vice-reigning state with other states, so there is no difference between me and you in terms of position.”
Hwang Moo-seok’s face hardened.
Doheon’s eyes became sharp.
“You’re being rude to an acquaintance of a great master. It’s okay if you have a private relationship, but you probably don’t know that such words are insulting to a demon in a similar position to you.”
Even though it was not mixed with any profanity, it was a sharp rebuke that could be called fatal.
Hwang Moo-seok saw Lee Cheon-sang as an ordinary person from a year ago, when Daeju cared about him. So he naturally made such a mistake.
Hwang Moo-seok bowed his head.
“sorry. I made a mistake.”
“Are you going to apologize to me?”
Hwang Moo-seok’s eyes wavered.
Gently gritting his teeth, he took a stab at Lee Cheon-sang.
“I was in the middle of finishing my training, so I got hot-tempered and started talking without hesitation. “I apologize for that.”
“I understand.”
Lee Cheon-sang received Hwang Moo-seok’s apology with a simple answer.
In fact, Hwang Moo-seok didn’t even like that. He spoke long-windedly and seemed to be in a bad mood.
Just as Hwang Moo-seok was about to open his mouth again.
“second.”
Doheon’s voice became more severe.
“If the first point is in the public sector, the second point is in the private sector.”
“… … “I will listen carefully.”

“You may not like people. You can’t be flexible with everyone. “I don’t know why, but I don’t think I need to know.”
When he said he didn’t know why, he was referring to Hwang Moo-seok’s extreme anger and jealousy toward Lee Cheon-sang.
In fact, Doheon did not know. He was also lying when he said he didn’t need to know.
Hwang Moo-seok was jealous of Lee Cheon-sang.
My first emotion probably wasn’t jealousy. I was worried and wary. Furthermore, there must have been some discomfort caused by Lee Cheon-sang’s unique indifferent words and actions.
However, the sight of Do-heon taking care of various things for Lee Cheon-sang ignited Hwang Moo-seok’s jealousy.
Someone says She said that if a woman harbors resentment, she will have frost even in May.
But it is no different for men.
Rather, in some areas, a man’s jealousy and resentment easily exceed that of a woman. Especially when they are linked with absolute trust in a harsh world, the repercussions are beyond imagination.
Hwang Moo-seok was such a case.
Doheon didn’t know at first either. Although he sometimes makes mistakes, he has a deep sense of comradeship, is devoted to the Gwangmadae, and has great trust in Hwang Moo-seok, who risks his life for any mission.
But now I know.
Ability and genius did not necessarily go together. Moreover, a person’s personality can change significantly depending on the situation.
Doheon felt sorry for that. But that regret didn’t stop him from saying what he had to say.
“If you are a warrior before you are a demon, there is no need for excuses or modifiers. “You overlooked it.”
“… … ?”
“Do I need a reason? If you want to do it, just say you want to do it confidently and that’s it. “Isn’t it okay to put indiscriminate words that disrupt the game in the clashing blades?”
Hwang Moo-seok felt his face getting hot.
In order to challenge Lee Cheon-sang to a fight, he tried to arouse his opponent with nonsensical words.
If it’s an enemy, that’s okay. It was a speech that would be laughed at even by enemies, but if it were the enemy, it was okay.
But Lee Cheon-sang is not the enemy.
He was a fellow demon and a member of the Protestant church. If you want to fight, just say let’s fight and it will be okay. Why did they say this and that so much?
“Of course, the person receiving the request can refuse. But that is just a natural right.”
It was Do Heon-sik’s scolding, asking why he was being so childish.
Hwang Moo-seok bowed his head again.
“sorry. “It’s my fault.”
That was the end.
Do not add detailed explanations.
Do-heon took care of Hwang Moo-seok in front of everyone. There are too many times to count when I make a mistake and get away with it. There are no members who will look down on their superiors for making mistakes, but I still thought it would be good to give them some consideration in that regard.
But this time I can’t just ignore it. We must not overlook this, not because of the crew, but because of Hwang Moo-seok himself.
You must clearly realize your mistake and show that you acknowledge it maturely.
To sit as an adjutant at Gwangma University or New Education University, you have to be different from others. That much has to be done.
Doheon nodded.
Hwang Moo-seok looked at Lee Cheon-sang.
The light of anger and jealousy that filled his eyes did not disappear, but at least his determination as a warrior remained alive.
“Hwang Moo-seok, the adjutant of the Gwangmadae, asks for a favor from Lee Cheon-sang, the head of the Yasha Commander.”
Lee Cheon-sang, who was quietly looking at Hwang Moo-seok, spoke calmly.
“How do you dance?”
Hwang Moo-seok frowned.
“Is there a separate form for the dance?”
There is something called formality in the political affairs of the political faction. However, there is no formality in the martial arts dance of the Demonic Dancers.
You can keep an eye out for a surprise attack, but if it overheats, you may end up bleeding. So, fights don’t happen carelessly, but once they happen, you have to mobilize everything you have.
“It’s a formal dance, I understand.”
Why?
The indifferent voice actually made the leaders behind Hwang Moo-seok startle.
Having no formality means that you can use any means, but Lee Cheon-sang’s words strangely sounded like he was saying that it was okay to die.
Lee Cheon-sang asked Do-heon.
“I will rent a training hall.”
Doheon nodded.
“Everyone, please vacate the training ground. “We will proceed with the meeting between Gwangmadae Adjutant Hwang Moo-seok and Yasha Commander Ilgak Lee Cheon-sang.”
The crew members who were panting and the crew members who were controlling their internal energy looked at the two people in surprise.
But even for a moment.
In an instant, the training ground became clean. Although they may feel like they are dying of exhaustion, they cannot miss seeing the dance of a master who is stronger than them.
Lee Cheon-sang came up to the training hall.
At that moment, Hwang Moo-seok could only see Lee Cheon-sang. He did not feel Doheon’s presence, the rustling of the crew, or the blowing wind.
Hwang Moo-seok is strongly focused.
Lee Cheon-sang, who was quietly looking at Hwang Moo-seok, twirled his wrists and lowered his posture.
Hwang Moo-seok frowned.
“Aren’t you going to pull out your sword?”
“When the time comes to pull it out, I will pull it out.”
For those who heard it, it was truly an insult to their pride.
Hwang Moo-seok’s face turned red. I really wanted to throw out a bunch of curse words because of my temperament.
Hwang Moo-seok, controlling his trembling heart, aimed his sword at Lee Cheon-sang.
“You will regret it.”
The tone of speech inevitably changed. Lee Cheon-sang tilted his head slightly, then kicked the ground.
Paaaaang!
Hwang Moo-seok’s eyes widened.
In an instant, it comes into the realm of the sword. The more expert a weapon is, the wider the radius of its influence is, but considering the distance between the two, it was indeed a new method that was as fast as the wind.
‘urg!’
Hwang Moo-seok quickly swung his sword.
It was not a newly honed method. It was the existing sword method of Gwangmadae, the Chamyeong sword method, that had become familiar to the body.
Chamyeongdo was a series of sharp swords worthy of its name of cutting shadows, but it was not limited to simple sword swords, but was capable of breaking the enemy’s morale with a single sword by instilling extreme force and destructive power.
Even though it was a sudden attack, the master’s work was a threat in itself.
Flash!
A flash of lightning cut off the end of Lee Cheon-sang’s sleeve.
Hwang Moo-seok’s eyes shook as if there had been an earthquake.
It was a momentary reaction, but he swung towards the point where Lee Cheon-sang entered. Even if it wasn’t a serious injury, it would have been normal to have cuts or poor posture.
‘Heocho?!’
Lee Cheon-sang did not intend to jump into his arms and decide the winner right away.
Coming into his arms is itself a waste. He was aiming for the opportunity right before the opponent swung his sword and used a second strike.
Lee Cheon-sang’s fist hit Hwang Moo-seok’s chest.
puck!
Hwang Moo-seok’s body flew through the air and fell to the bottom of the training ground.
“… … !!”
Shock appeared on the crew members’ faces.
Lee Cheon-sang shook his hands and said.
“There will be no internal injuries.”
