Absolute Regression - Chapter 279
Only Noblemtl
Episode 279 You don’t know what’s going on in the world.
Ian was wearing a bamboo hat with a cotton thread.
As she came closer, Jin Ha-ryeong’s eyes grew bigger and bigger. She had a slender yet sensual body that was truly hard to find.
Still, there was still room.
Ian walked in front of the two and slowly took off his bamboo ribs.
The moment he saw her face, Jin Ha-ryeong was shocked.
She was confident in her looks. No matter how beautiful she was, she was bound to become ordinary when she was in front of him.
But this opponent is different. The clear and cool facial features, clear eyes, and elastic skin were shining.
It made me wonder if it was really possible to be this attractive and beautiful.
The reason she was more surprised and amazed than ordinary people was because Jin Ha-ryeong knew more about beauty than anyone else.
This is because I have been compared a lot and met many pretty women. So I know. It’s not easy to be that beautiful.
There’s one more thing.
There was something about Ian that made him perfect. That was Ian’s prayer. The prayer was gentle yet powerful. As I was looking at her, I felt like I was seeing a plum blossom blooming on a snowy day.
‘He’s an expert!’
No review index I have ever seen has shown this type of prayer. It was a prayer that overwhelmed not only them but also himself.
‘He’s more expert than me.’
She’s this beautiful, but she’s strong even in martial arts? Surely he doesn’t have a good personality? Your voice must be strange, right? Really, I even had this ridiculous thought.
While I was lost in thought, Ian smiled and greeted me.
“It’s my first time meeting you. “I’m Ian.”
Jade beads rolled on the tray. We don’t know his personality yet, so if we only looked at the external factors, he was perfect.
“This is Jin Ha-ryeong.”
Jin Ha-ryeong’s voice trembled slightly. Earlier, she did not tremble when speaking in front of so many Jisoo, but she was nervous at this moment.
On the other hand, even though Ian was dealing with the Murim Lord’s granddaughter, he was full of confidence in every word he said.
“I heard a lot. It is an honor to meet such a precious person. You are truly beautiful. “I’ve never seen such a beautiful person.”
A word that came to Jin Ha-ryeong’s mind!
‘Who can say that!’
Did you ever think the day would come when you would lose out on your looks?
Her surprised gaze turned to the sword dance. Geommugeuk showed off with an obnoxiously proud expression.
“I am this kind of person.”
Jin Ha-ryeong confirmed it again as if he did not believe it.
“Is she really your girlfriend?”
This time, Ian was surprised to hear the word girlfriend and looked at the sword dance.
“I ignored you and said I didn’t have a girlfriend, so I said I did.”
Jin Ha-ryeong’s heart was pounding like Jin Ha-ryeong’s, and Ian’s heart was pounding like Ian’s.
“So, are you your girlfriend?”
Just as Geomukgeuk was about to say something, Ian answered.
“no.”
That was when Jin Ha-ryeong felt an unexpected sense of relief.
“We are much closer than my girlfriend.”
Jin Ha-ryeong was startled.
It was a short reaction, but Ian could feel it.
‘Jin Soje is in love with you.’
It was a feeling I could feel because we were both women.
She is the granddaughter of the Demonic Cult’s leader and the Murim Lord.
‘The conditions that every man in the world desires must have been the worst conditions for meeting you, Master.’
Ian said with a smile.
“I have taken you as an escort since I was young. “I said this after seeing you for a long time.”
Then Jin Ha-ryeong glanced at the sword dance and said.
“It must have been difficult, serving that person.”
“It wasn’t easy.”
When the two women looked at each other, Geommugeuk smiled and said.
“In the first place, if you have a common enemy, you become friends faster.”
Then Jin Ha-ryeong asked provocatively.
“Are we common enemies?”
“what do you mean?”
Jin Ha-ryeong said to Ian.
“I think if he had considered you as a subordinate, the words ‘girlfriend’ would never have come out of that person’s mouth.”
Ian spoke firmly in response to those words that were thought about for no reason.
“You’re mistaken. To me, you are the precious Lord of Sogyo, and I have never had such feelings in my life.”
Her love for sword dance was deeper than anyone else’s. But she herself was just a bodyguard, and her Sword Mugeuk was the flesh and blood of her Cheonma. She is single and doesn’t even know who her parents are.
“You don’t know what’s going on in the world.”
Jin Ha-ryeong’s words were said to Ian, and perhaps also to himself.
Just as Ian felt Jin Ha-ryeong’s liking for sword dance, Jin Ha-ryeong also felt that Ian liked sword dance.
For a brief moment, a strange current flowed between the two women.
Jin Ha-ryeong said to Geommugeuk.
“Anyway, I’ll cancel for treating you like a braggart.”
“Then that’s enough. “My trust has been restored.”
Eventually, Geommugeuk revealed the reason for bringing Ian in.
“The reason I brought Ian here wasn’t to make the two of you fight over beauty.”
“then?”
The reason was very unexpected.
“I brought my friend here to introduce you to another friend. “I think you two will get along well.”
The words ‘another friend’ flew into Jin Ha-ryeong’s mind.
‘You really thought of me as a friend.’
I felt a strange feeling, good but also a little sad.
After introducing the two women to each other, Geomugeuk got to the point.
“Where is Daeju Jin?”
“Why brother?”
“Didn’t you call me because of Lord Jin?”
“how did you know?”
Anyway, this guy isn’t surprising anymore.
“Your brother probably asked you to meet him by chance.”
“How did you know that? no way? Are you watching us? “Have you planted people around me?”
It was a funny comment about the sword dance because it wasn’t a joke but a sincerity.
“I really wish there were three works that were that outstanding. “The problem is that people with such outstanding skills don’t do three jobs.”
That means that Geommugeuk found out by guessing. Yes, since he is this kind of person, his brother must have asked for help.
“Do you consider me a friend?”
Geommugeuk nodded.
“Then make me a promise. You can’t harm my brother. If you’re going to do that, just kill me. Understand?”
Sword Dance Geuk said to Ian.
“Did you hear? “If I give the order to kill Master Jin, you can just kill this person here.”
“Isn’t this a harsh order to give after introducing me as a friend?”
Jin Ha-ryeong smiled slightly at Ian’s words.
“Brother is in the guest room at the end of the garden over there. “I am waiting to come out to see you when I send you a message.”
“I’ll go and meet you.”
“Your pride will be hurt.”
“If you had tried to protect your pride, you wouldn’t have called me in the first place. See you later then.”
After finishing speaking, Geommugeuk walked towards the place Jin Ha-ryeong told him about.
There was an awkward silence between them for a moment, just the two of them.
Jin Ha-ryeong asked Ian.
“Would you like to go to the banquet with me?”
If these two beautiful women returned to the banquet hall together, it would be a complete mess.
Ian politely declined.
“Please invite me next time. “I don’t think it’s my place to go today.”
“Okay, see you next time.”
They greeted each other politely and hugged each other.
Jin Ha-ryeong, who was walking a few steps, looked back at Ian.
“Can we see each other again?”
Jin Ha-ryeong felt curious about Ian. She was curious about what kind of woman she was, and she was also curious about how the sword martial arts she knew were different from the sword martial arts she knew. She was even more attracted to Ian because he was beautiful.
“Sure. I will always be with you, Master. “If you want to see me, please find me, Master.”
“Of course.”
Jin Ha-ryeong returned to the banquet hall, and Ian quietly disappeared into the shadows.
* * *
Jinha was waiting in the guest room.
If my younger brother contacts me, I naturally plan to go there and meet Geommugeuk. Because it wasn’t strange for him to participate in the review meeting.
‘This is crazy.’
What will happen if Master finds out? It will probably become an irreparable relationship. What if grandpa knows? I’m sure you’ll be very disappointed. A problem arose and instead of solving it on their own, they brought in Mine. Even though she knew that, she dragged herself into the sword dance. That’s how much she felt a sense of great crisis.
It was right then.
Someone was passing by the window, stopped and looked inside.
The person who made eye contact with Jinha was Geommugeuk.
“Lord Jin! Why are you here? I was attending a meeting invited by your brother. I was looking for where the back room was, but what kind of coincidence is this? “I think we have a fateful relationship.”
Jinha, who was watching the sword dance, soon sighed.
“Stop acting ridiculous and come in.”
Geommugeuk came into the house smiling.
“How did you know?”
“Well, if my younger brother hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have met you here. Aren’t you the kind of person who wanders around without being able to find your place? “It’s not like I’m going to meet someone by chance like this.”
“also! Our Lord Jin, you are smart. “If we want to fight the Murim Alliance later, we’ll have to work really hard.”
“I’m not in the mood to take your jokes right now. So stop it.”
Jinha was worried about how he would look back on this moment in his life. We are at a crossroads, whether it will start with “It was a really stupid choice,” or “If it hadn’t been for that choice, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”
“How did you know I called you?”
“I know how important the Murim Alliance is to you.”
“What do you know about me?”
“Aren’t you the one who gave up Cheonhwamun to become the lord? Just by looking at that fact alone, I can see how much you want to become the Murim Lord.”
Jinha accepted those words in silence.
“Do you mind that you called me? “You don’t have to worry about that.”
Jinha waited for the next words with an expression that asked what he meant.
Then, unexpected words flowed from Geommugeuk.
“Aren’t you the heir yet? If the successor had called the successor, that could definitely be a problem. But now, the Demon Demon Lord has called his younger friend. “I didn’t call you because I wanted help, but because I had something to investigate.”
“Then, aren’t you the one who came because I was called by the leader of the Murim Alliance, who is not even the heir? “The Demonic Cult’s small sect leader.”
“I’m fine. “Because I am a big-hearted person.”
“You’re so good at saying that with your own mouth.”
“If I don’t tell you, you won’t know that I have such a big barrel, right? “I’m worried about the world’s attention when I shouldn’t have to worry about it.”
“Really, you…” … .”
“He’s a person who knows how to brag about himself and insult others at the same time.”
How can you deal with sword dance with words? In the end, Ha-gun Jin shook his head with an expression that said he couldn’t stop him.
Geommugeuk stood up, poured tea from the kettle on the table in the corner, and asked.
“Why did you call me?”
When Jinha was about to answer, he hesitated. Do I really need to talk about Master? A story about Master, not anyone else.
Geommugeuk brought two cups of tea. The appearance was so natural that it seemed as if a sword dance performance was welcoming Jinha.
“Let me guess why you called me.”
Geommugeuk looked down at the teacup for a moment and suddenly spoke.
“You are afraid that you will kill him with your own hands.”
“!”
At that moment, Jinha opened his eyes wide.
“You called me because you couldn’t bear to kill me. “To use it as your sword.”
It was an unexpected statement, but at the same time, it hit the nail on the head.
Jin Ha-gun admitted that deep in his heart, he remembered what Geommugeuk had said. He eventually says that he doesn’t know whether he should kill Sabu. Once that premonition came to mind, it never left my mind.
“Why didn’t you tell the leader about such an important matter?”
Jin Ha-gun felt that it was time to reveal everything due to Geommugeuk’s serious gaze.
“Because you won’t believe it. Even if you believe me, I thought he would find out first while handling this matter. “There will be many people within the group who will serve as his eyes and ears.”
“Who is that person?”
Jinha finally revealed his existence.
“My master.”
It was the first time I learned of the existence of the master in the sword dance.
“Did you have a master?”
“You won’t know because it’s not known to the outside world. “Master absolutely hated being known to the world.”
One thing was certain. When the Murim leader was defeated by Hwamugi and the Murim leader and all his blood relatives died, his master was not among the victims. At least he wasn’t the one who died protecting his student.
“I found out through this incident. “Our master is strange.”
“That’s right. Masters are always strange. “Because my master is trying to collapse the cliff with his fist.”
I don’t know if the sword dance’s words were a joke or serious, but that’s really how I felt.
“I’d rather have a strange master like that.”
“How was it strange? “Tell me in detail.”
“There is no solid evidence. It’s just a feeling. And yet I called you… … “I might actually be the strange one.”
“It’s not that you’re weird, it’s that you’re so smart.”
Jinha raised his head at Geommugeuk’s words.
“What do you mean?”
“This incident was definitely strange to me. “It was strange that Lord Cheonhwamun asked for help from you in the first place.”
“Isn’t it possible that our master was close friends with Lord Cheonhwamun?”
“Then would you like to ask me a question? “Did your master mention revenge?”
Jinha’s heart sank for a moment. He was so focused on his master’s discomfort that he missed that point.
Jinha shook his head. That wasn’t the only thing that was missing.
“Did you mourn the death of Cheonhwamunju? “Did you ask who killed him?”
There was no mourning, no asking who killed. Why didn’t I think of this? It was really a very basic idea. Suddenly, what Geomugeuk said came to mind.
―What I’m saying is that because he’s a close person, I don’t see him anymore.
When something happens, countless past memories and relationships with him tend to come to mind first, rather than such objective judgments.
“So what did your master say?”
“I said let’s take back Cheonhwamun Gate. “Tell me to find a way.”
“Why did Cheonhwamunju ask your master for help when it was only like this? What kind of relationship are they? Isn’t it strange if you look at it objectively? The master of the Murim Lord’s grandson has an incomprehensible relationship with Lord Cheonhwamun of the Heavenly Demon Church? Your instincts worked well. “The choice to call me was also very good.”
The barrage of praise for the sword dance continued.
“So I look forward to the time when you become the leader. “I want to be with a wise person like you.”
The sword dance was constantly stimulating me. Well, since he was a person who shook people up like this, he must have been the first thing that came to mind in times of crisis. He must have come to me in my dreams and given me faith.
Jinha no longer hesitated or hesitated.
“What should I do now?”
Until the end, sword dance was the spokesperson in Jinhagun’s heart.
“They tried to play with you, so shouldn’t you be a dangerous toy?”
