Episode 258
“He was a weirdo.”
Gal Won-woong told the story focusing on dissing the master.
It certainly seems that Master has had a personality breakdown since childhood.
It is said that when something goes wrong, Sutli often beats up people, regardless of whether they are executed or priests, and has always been the only child in the world.
So, the only person he hung out with at that time was Gal Won-woong himself.
“But I guess he only acknowledged the elders?”
“Well, that was it. He didn’t even want to admit it to our instructors. I always had doubts about all the teachings, found mistakes, and created something new on my own. And they try to get it confirmed by the instructors. “Even though he was prone to bursting out of laughter, he said it was so much fun.”
“As expected, your qualifications seem to be great.”
“okay. “Since he was a little kid, he has been talking about himself as the greatest talent of all time.”
It’s unfortunate, but it’s something I have no choice but to admit.
Even if compared to a blood demon, I think Master would have the upper hand in terms of flashing genius.
“However, I heard that even after he became the Most High, he had no direct disciples and did not teach within the Protestant Church. Isn’t this also because there are no talented people who can match yours?”
“okay. There might be a reason for that. You probably won’t find a talented person who will be satisfied with you until the day you die. What he wants is probably a similar level of talent as himself, but where can he find it?”
These words suddenly make me feel solemn.
I, who lived an extremely ordinary life, became the successor to the Heavenly Demon. No matter how great it is, it is unrealistic.
“But there’s one interesting thing. Even if he discovers the talent he wants and makes him his disciple, he will not fully pass on his martial arts skills. Until he dies.”
“Why?”
“Because it’s a waste.”
The reason is a bit absurd.
What a waste.
Rather, it would be normal to think that it would be a greater waste for one’s own season to completely disappear from the world.
“Are you just passing on the knowledge you worked so hard to gain just because you are a disciple? “It’s something that can’t happen to his personality.”
Gal Won-woong’s tone is full of confidence.
But it was difficult for me to agree.
Because I have received ample teachings from Master.
“It has already been decades since the interaction between the two elders stopped. “This is a time when Kang and San have changed many times, so wouldn’t he have changed too?”
Muyeongchuhongeom.
This sword technique contains my master’s entire life, and I was taught all the theories of the martial arts sword.
Even though my achievements are limited and there are limits to what I can expand upon, there is nothing I have not learned.
“No, people don’t change. Moreover, if you have a strong ego like that guy, the fundamentals will never change. Moreover, if he has accepted someone as his disciple, the disciple’s qualities must also be a talent given by heaven, so he will definitely not teach everything and leave the most important things to be discovered on your own.”
“You seem confident.”
“But it’s just a meaningless assumption anyway. That guy probably won’t have any disciples until he dies. “I guess I’ll just name a successor before I die.”
“… … okay.”
This martial forest is probably a parallel world to the martial forest I visited in the past.
In the previous martial arts mission, it was announced that I was Master’s disciple.
However, one thing is clear: even in the 38th floor of the martial arts world, Master will not return to martial arts again.
Master is currently on the verge of ascending the tower.
[Remaining time: 40 hours 29 minutes]
In the end, I decided to come out.
Even so, there will be no major repercussions in this world.
There will be no need for me to embrace the Heavenly Demon Church, and I will soon disappear like the wind from this martial arts forest.
The reason for coming out wasn’t anything special.
Since Gal Won-woong will never be able to meet his childhood master again, he just wanted to let him feel his scent through the sword skills his master left behind.
“Actually, I am his disciple.”
“That’s novel bullshit.”
I expected this kind of reaction as expected.
Above all, I am not a member of the Heavenly Demon Church.
In the end, the simplest and most certain way to prove that I am Master’s disciple is the martial arts sword.
Kwakakakang!!
The holy sword Gaia spews out a shower of sword energy with a force that distorts the air, and the place where we stand is filled with Master’s scent.
It is highly likely that Gal Won-woong has never seen the Muyeongchuhongeom in person.
But there was no need to elaborate.
Because his expression said it all right now.
“… … “I can’t believe it.”
Compared to what the Master does directly, it may be the difference between a full moon and a firefly, but it is without a doubt the Master’s signature.
I took a deep breath and faced Galwonwoong again.
“Don’t ask me how we met. “I can’t tell you that.”
“I guess that doesn’t matter anymore.”
Gal Won-woong still shakes his head with an expression of disbelief.
He then gave me a short review.
“It’s beautiful.”
“Of course, Master’s swordsmanship was much more beautiful than this. Even though my sword skills are not good enough to be used with my own hands, I wanted to show them. “What kind of sword techniques did Master invent while you were in the Murim Alliance?”
And he added an important story.
Now Master can no longer be seen anywhere in the world.
And that I can’t become the next Heavenly Demon.
Gal Won-woong’s expression as he listened to me was extremely serious.
He didn’t ask me anything.

Even though this whole situation was full of questions, Gal Won-woong just said thank you.
“I trust you will keep the secret.”
“I understand. “I just have one favor to ask.”
“Please speak.”
“Someday, please complete the martial arts sword. “I’m sure he was looking forward to it and passed it on to you.”
“That’s what I hope for, too.”
“Do you remember what I said earlier? “What he said was that he would never pass on all his feelings.”
“Yes, you definitely said that.”
“You don’t think so, but I’m sure he left something out on purpose. “So that you can find out for yourself.”
“Actually, I’ve never thought about it like that.”
“But I’m sure he left a clue. It was like that to me when I was young. Even though he said he taught me everything, there was definitely something wrong with it. Think carefully. “Where is it?”
Galwonwoong spoke decisively.
Considering his position, it would be a statement that could not be made without a certain degree of confidence.
“Thank you, old man. “I will think about it carefully.”
After that, I couldn’t help but think deeper.

[Remaining time: 16 hours 21 minutes]
In the end, what will come will come.
The warriors of the Murim Alliance, who were chasing us with all their might, found this safe house.
Gal Won-woong sent Jeon Seo-gu to the Heavenly Demon Church to request reinforcements, but there was still no news, and in the end, the three of us had to fight a decisive battle.
it’s a shame. I was hoping to find it a little later.
‘The survival probability for the second quest is 55 percent.’
Of course, it will be much lower than that now.
The 55% chance would be based on having a limb cut off and being tortured in a prison cell.
Our current situation requires us to make a final stand here in the safe house, and it will not be easy to exhaust all the remaining time on the quest.
“Are you still thinking about that?”
“That’s right. “Elderly.”
day. I spent a full 24 hours just thinking about the martial arts sword.
The ‘Tree of Wisdom’ growing in the garden on the 33rd floor is in full operation.
The deeper I think with the buff of wisdom, the more confident I become in what Gal Won-woong said.
It feels like there is a foreign object stuck in the eosinga that penetrates the beginning and end of the Muyeongchuhongeom.
You have to find that point.
According to Gal Won-woong’s words, the clue to solving it must also be secretly hidden in the teacher’s teachings.
“Then think about it a little more. Even though the Murim League found this safe house, it will take some more time to free Ki Mun-jin.”
“In your opinion, how long do you think it will take?”
If it is Galwonwoong, it is possible to predict to some extent.
He was once an elder of the Murim Alliance, so the level of the pursuit team would be within his expected range.
“As you know, the group of people in this safe house is not of the highest rank. Considering the level of Murimmaeng, you can solve it in about three hours (six hours).”
It’s not good news.
If this calculation is correct, you would have to survive approximately 10 hours without dying to clear the quest.
“But there is a way to buy a little more time. “I go directly into Kimunjin and defend it.”
“You mean the old man?”
“Ki Moon-jin’s illusions will protect me, so don’t worry too much. “If the situation becomes dangerous, we will return to the safe house.”
Following Gal Won-woong’s words, Chae Yi-seol came forward.
“I will help you too. Elderly! “I felt uncomfortable because I was the only one doing nothing, like a burden!”
In fact, Chae Yi-seol was blaming herself when she shouldn’t have.
Even though I was the one who dragged her into escaping, and I was the one who knocked her out right before escaping.
“I’m sorry, but there is only one guardian who can enter this kimunjin. “I will be able to defend it longer if I go rather than my wife and children.”
Of course, Gal Won-woong is at a much higher level than Chae Yi-seol.
But my thoughts were a little different.
“Elder, will you give Mr. Lee Seol one chance?”
According to my calculations, Chae Yi-seol would be a much better card.
* * *
“Kaaeang!!”
Kangsoo screamed and threatened the warriors who entered the camp.
The mysterious harmony created by this Ki Mun-jin turned the road to the safe house into a narrow, single-track passage.
It’s a situation where you can’t take a single step without defeating Kansu.
Joint construction is not easy due to space constraints.
“There is a monster ahead!!”
“Does this type of kimunjin exist?”
Of course, there is no Ki Moon-jin who creates monsters.
Kansu is not an illusion.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Kangsoo’s exclusive skill ‘Fist of Wind’ made the warriors of the Murim Alliance even more embarrassed.
The force fired without hesitation violently attacked the warriors in front, stopping the pursuit team’s advance.
“Kaaeang!”
Kansu’s cries once again echoed loudly in the crowd.
“I’ll try to break through that monster!”
The one who came to the front was Meng Hao-yeon, a new warrior of the Murim Alliance.
A person from the Cheongseong Swordsman School who is already on the verge of becoming a master at the age of just a few years.
he thought.
A monster like this created by an illusion would be cut in half by his sword.
Amid everyone’s expectations, he drew his sword.
Da da da da!
Then, he blocked the wind blow from Kansu with his sword and began to charge.
Ssssshsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ours!
The exhortation that Kansu gave became more and more intense.
‘weird!’
The appearance of a monster that is too realistic for an illusion.
Although Meng Haoyeon felt something strange, he did not slow down his attack.
‘It’s difficult to be deceived by illusions!’
Now that he could no longer block the incoming energy with just his sword, he had no choice but to receive many of them with his whole body.
The pain was overwhelming, but I had to endure it.
We are now very close to that illusion, and the Cheongseong Sword will soon cut that monster in two.
Thinking like that, I stretched out my sword.
At that moment, the new form of the monster moved at an incredibly fast speed.
And then, in the blink of an eye, I saw something coming right in front of me.
It’s that monster’s fist.
It’s so fast that I can’t react.
There was nothing I could do other than believe that this fist was only an illusion and that, unlike the fists I had fired so far, it would not cause any damage.
Whoa whoa!
However, that unfounded belief was immediately shattered.
“good job! “It’s Kansu!”
Chae Yi-seol, who was guarding Kansu’s back, cheered.
“Don’t worry, fight! “If you get hurt, I will treat you right away.”
Her goal is to take as much time as possible.
I was confident to some extent.
In the garden, crops that would replenish mana were waiting to be harvested.
