Absolute Regression - Chapter 311

Episode 311: Now, to my weaknesses.

Did he feel good about what I said?

“Not only should I take care of other students, but I should also take care of this one.”

The leader of Pungcheon snapped his fingers and performed a space-time transformation technique.

When I learned space-time anomaly from him, I said I would have him as my teacher at least here.

“Disciple. “What are you worried about?”

Instead of answering the playful question of the Pungcheon religious leader, I looked around first.

It was the middle of the battlefield, where blood flowed like a stream and corpses were piled up.

“Why on earth did you open a place like this? “Where are we?”

“I think a place like this would suit you.”

I knew it wasn’t just a joke, so I asked him in a calm tone.

“Is this how I feel as the leader sees me?”

He looked at me intently and asked again.

“Isn’t the reason why you become stronger every time I see you is because your mind is always a battlefield?”

This is the kind of person Pungcheon Pyoju is without fun. A person who instinctively smells blood.

“I’m sorry, but this is what’s on my mind.”

This time, I imitated the Pungcheon religious leader and snapped my fingers. He liked to snap his fingers like this when opening the space-time anomaly technique.

Sssssssut!

The place has changed. This time it was a beautiful field with pure white flower petals fluttering in the wind.

“This is how I feel.”

After looking around, the Pungcheon religious leader smiled and asked.

“Aren’t you dreaming of a place like this?”

Without any more refutation, I also smiled slightly.

The leader of Pungcheon said as he picked up the flower petals that had fallen on the floor.

“When you’re here, there are times when you’re confused as to whether this is the real world or whether that’s the real world. Is it because of my desire to be in the space I created? “What about you?”

“Me too. Sometimes you want to forget everything and run away. “It’s so nice when I rest here.”

Sun and sea, sandy beach and comfortable chairs under broad-leafed trees. Perhaps the leader of Pungcheon Church has his own space like me.

“If this place becomes a sanctuary, it will become paradise, and if it becomes a place of refuge, it will become hell. “Both here and the outside world.”

The leader of Pungcheon Church asked, throwing the flower petals in his hand into the air.

“Now, I’ll ask you again. What are you thinking? “What are you trying to find out from behind?”

Concern flashed across his face. I appreciate your concern, but I couldn’t tell you about King Hwan.

“You are a troublemaker. “You even attract people who cast a spell on the Soul Mazon.”

“If anyone hears it, they will think it appeared because of me.”

“If it weren’t for you, wouldn’t you have known about it? In that case, you can say that they are the ones revealed to the world because of you.”

It was sophistry, but it was also true. If it weren’t for me, Hwan Yeo here would have been remembered as just the owner of the flower garden and then disappear.

“Still, since it is related to the blood religion, I will handle this matter.”

He’s trying to protect me. He wants to take responsibility and end this matter that started with a spell of seduction. I was grateful that he cared so much.

“I have something to ask the leader.”

“Something?”

“What are the weaknesses of those who have mastered the art of seduction?”

The leader of Pungcheon looked at me with an absurd expression, asking what kind of question this was.

“Are you telling me to show off my weaknesses now?”

“Wouldn’t it be better to throw away the bad things quickly?”

“Gowol! Look, this person here is the leader of Sujiao whom you respect so much. Did I tell you? “Not just a small religious leader, but a vicious small religious leader.”

Although he was joking like that, the leader of Pungcheon must have realized that the question was meant to find out the flower garden woman’s weaknesses.

“You can leave it to me. “Why are you doing this because you have something to find out about her?”

The leader of Pungcheon walked slowly. I followed him down a path filled with flower petals.

Every time he took a step, Pungcheon Pyoju went back in time and remembered that moment long ago.

“I can’t forget the first time I successfully performed a seonsoul jutsu. Not only me, but anyone who has mastered the art of seophonju would do the same. How amazing would it be when people move according to my will? When you succeed like that a few times, you start to feel afraid. “Just as I control other people’s minds, what if someone stronger than me controls me like this?”

This was the reason why Seo Dae-ryong once said that the Sentai Subsoul Mazon was the scariest among the Mazon. Rather than dying miserably while being manipulated like a jiangshi, it would be better to die cleanly with a sword.

“And do you know what happens after that period passes?”

I just stayed silent and listened to what he said.

“The human heart seems so funny. Seeing how even the most steadfast people end up falling prey to the magic of seduction, I realize that human will is not a big deal. Do you know what happens if you do that?”

The leader of Pungcheon stopped for a moment and looked at me.

“People look funny.”

Was he ashamed of himself for doing that? The gaze that had been directed at me turned towards the mountains in the distance outside the road.

“If people look funny, the world will eventually look funny too.”

“How did you overcome it?”

“Overcome? “I couldn’t do it.”

The leader of Pungcheon expressed his honest feelings.

“That changes when you become an expert? That’s like an unfounded assumption that you will become wiser when you grow older. “A wise young man becomes a wise old man.”

For the first time since we met, the leader of the Pungcheon Church sighed for the first time.

“It would be different for you. Even if you have mastered the art of seophonju instead of seophonjutsu, you will not look down on others. However, ordinary people like us are different. Stealing someone else’s mind always comes with a price.”

Perhaps he is confessing that he was like that when he shackled Gowol.

I know. They told me I couldn’t overcome it, but I already did. When Go Yue was freed from his shackles, he began to see people differently than before.

“Somewhere in that woman’s heart, there must be arrogance, conceit, and emptiness. She will make fun of her heart, she will make fun of people, she will make fun of the world. “There must be a black hole somewhere in her heart.”

A black hole in my heart.

I know what that means. Because there was such a hole in my heart in my life before returning. A hole so deep that nothing can fill it.

At that time, the leader of Pungcheon suddenly spoke.

“Thank you.”

He credited me with starting to fill that hole.

“If it weren’t for you, I would still be in the Pungcheon Bridge’s main battle. He must have lived like that, looking at the same old object every day and keeping Gowol tied up for fear of losing it. At that time, I thought I had an easier life than anyone else in the world, but it was never an easy life. “If I think about it now, I was the one wearing the shackles.”

Pure white flower petals poured down on us from the ususu tree.

“How is it? “Did it help you?”

How should I thank him for sharing my weaknesses?

Yes, this one word will give you the answer.

“Yes, Master.”

As if he had never been serious, the leader of Pungcheon laughed and spoke loudly.

“It’s been a while since I’ve been here, so should I stay a little longer and then leave?”

After waiting for a while, I came out to enjoy the feeling of becoming a master today. It was spring inside, but winter was coming outside.

* * *

We entered the Demon Dragon Garden, where demonic forces reside.

Demon soldiers passing by recognized me and greeted me politely.

These are big guys I haven’t seen in a long time.

The demon armies were not the demon armies of the past. There was moderation and spirit in his eyes and movements.

It’s all thanks to this man.

“I heard that you came back, Master Xiao.”

Demon Lord Jangho welcomed me with a dignified appearance. It is said that people change depending on their position, and the Jangho of the past had a completely different feel from the person he is now. Now he suits the Demon Lord better than anyone else.

“I came because I wanted to see Lord Jang.”

“I should have come to see you first, I’m sorry.”

“A busy person doesn’t need to do that. “Someone with leisure time like me should come.”

Jangho laughed. Because he knows very well how busy I am. Even if I want to say hello, I can’t see it.

Anyway, seeing the creepy scar on his face made me feel so happy, I thought it was my first time seeing him in a long time.

“Whats up?”

“I haven’t changed. Rather, this warrior and Seo Gak-ju are so busy that they can’t even go out for drinks.”

“Originally, lazy people pretend to be busy.”

Jangho laughed again. Like Seo Dae-ryong, he also probably rarely smiles while with his subordinates. Because both organizations absolutely needed the authority of their heads. Yes, smile comfortably like that even when you are with me.

The same goes for Gwonma and Jangho. When these usually blunt men smile like this, it makes me feel better.

“You kept my faith.”

“What do you mean?”

“I told you that, right? “I will be the best demon lord among all demon lords of all time.”

“That is an overstatement.”

This is not excessive praise. Because I’ve already heard that.

My words seem to remind Jangho of the past.

“I haven’t achieved my wish yet.”

“What kind of wind?”

“I told you this when you put me in the position of Demon Lord. I want to become a person like the former Sogyoju. I want to become that kind of person who feels like we can accomplish any difficult task if we are together. “My wish did not come true.”

“Hasn’t that already been achieved?”

I spoke to him with a strange look on his face.

“I came to you because something difficult happened, right? “I need your help.”

Jangho’s expression brightened. Saying that he needs your help will probably make him feel better than any other compliment.

“I heard that during the training of demonic forces, there is also training against hexes and illusions.”

“Yes, we do special training to prepare for Sapa experts.”

“Even seophonjutsu?”

“There is a special group made up of people who are naturally mentally strong.”

“Let them support me.”

Joy flashed across Jangho’s face. He hasn’t done anything with me lately, but finally there’s something that can help.

“When do you need it?”

“Right Now.”

After a while, he came out with about twenty demon soldiers, including Jang Ho.

I could feel the enemy soldiers and escorts waiting outside getting nervous. The mobilization of demonic forces meant that something dangerous was going on in earnest.

* * *

Hwan Yeo could not leave the garden.

This was due to Sogyoju’s threat that if he left before the investigation was completed, he would be tracked down by disguising the entire central committee.

More than anything else, it was something he shouldn’t have revealed to the world.

But that doesn’t mean we can’t be held captive like this when we don’t know when the investigation will end.

At that time, a man pulling a cart entered the garden. He was a man who came to deliver seedlings and flower pots. He put down the flower pot from the cart and sent a message to Hwanyeo.

―Here’s a report. The leader of the Pungcheon cult has returned to the headquarters of the Demonic Cult.

At that moment, Hwanyeo’s expression became serious. The absent leader of Pungcheon Church came back at this moment?

‘no way?’

Did he notice that the Yin-Yang Reverse Soul Jutsu was performed on the Sub-Soul Mazon? If you are a Poongcheon sect leader, you may notice that you have been caught in the yin-yang reverse spirit technique. No, I probably brought him in in the first place because I noticed something.

-I think you should leave.

Despite her worries, she remained calm.

-Don’t make a fuss.

-sorry.

After thinking for a moment, she gave an order.

– Put the blood spirits on standby and tell the ghost that there may be a guest.

The man was startled, but quickly answered politely.

-All right.

The man who received the order left the garden again, pulling the cart.

It was just when Hwan-yeo was about to pick up and carry the flower pot that had been delivered.

The tree-shaped wind chime hanging under the eaves made a sound.

Hwan-yeo took the flower pot from the cart and headed toward the back of the flower garden.

The moment she turned the corner, her figure disappeared in an instant.

Wooooow.

She was walking to a place where she heard a soft sound. The surrounding walls were writhing as if they were alive, with disgusting protrusions sticking out. It felt like I was walking through the belly of a monster.

When she entered this place, her appearance also changed. Her lips turned bright red and her eyes were horribly slit.

That wasn’t the only thing that changed. The flower in the flower pot I was holding in my hand had suddenly turned into a man-eating plant that eats insects. Judging from its eerie aura, it’s probably not just insects that it eats.

As she passed through a complicated maze-like passage, she came into a small space.

When I entered the eerie atmosphere, the wall in front began to wriggle and protrude.

Jjiiiiiiig.

A man showed his face. It was a bizarre sight, as if his face was trying to protrude through a transparent membrane. The natural voice was also strange.

“They wonder why you don’t come back.”

This is a message from my younger brother.

“Tell them they can’t go back yet.”

“You might wonder why.”

“later. “Tell them I’ll tell you later.”

“I’m worried… … .”

Before she could finish her message, she waved her hand.

The wall became taut, as if throwing the man away, and the protruding face disappeared.

She lay down as if she had thrown herself backwards.

The floor bulged out and wrapped around her like a comfortable bed.

This was her favorite place and the only place she could relax.

She closed her eyes for a moment and thought about how to handle this. The problem was Sogyoju. The fact that she couldn’t read what he was thinking provoked her.

Jjiiiiiiig.

A face pushed out from the wall again. A face trying to break through the membrane.

-I said I would take care of it.

The next moment, she was startled. It was not the face of the subordinate in charge of connecting with her younger brother. The face that was pushing against her membrane looked familiar.

Pugh!

The membrane was torn open and someone thrust in his face. Surprisingly, he was a sword dancer. When his eyes met, Geom Mugeuk grinned and said.

“Was there a wicked person among those who liked flowers?”

At that moment, Hwanyeo opened her eyes.

It was a dream.

I fell asleep for a moment and had a dream during that time. This was the first time I had a dream where I was aware of someone.

At that time, I heard someone looking for me in the flower garden outside.

“Owner! “Is the owner here?”

It was the voice of the main character in a nightmare.
