Absolute Regression Episode 333
Episode 333: When old desires are revealed.
Chwima and Ilhwageomjon arrived at Daechwirim.
“Leave the liquor box here. “I’ll carry it from now on.”
Hearing Chwima’s words, Ilhwa Geomzon continued to walk.
“I’d like to have a drink and then go.”
“When you caught me like that, you were so cold-hearted and just wanted to leave?”
“You found a good drink.”
Of course, that wasn’t the case. He felt that Chuma’s mood had subsided, so he wanted to comfort him. No matter what, I had one friend.
Ilhwa Geomzon spoke to Yeobin, a three-generation drunkard who welcomed them.
“Let’s drink together today.”
“I am okay.”
“That’s because I want to drink.”
Then Yeobin looked at Chuma. Chu Ma took one look at her Ilhwa Geomjon and nodded her head at her female companion.
“Then I’ll bring some snacks.”
Ilhwageomjon and Chwima climbed to Chwimongru first.
“Why are you doing something you’re not used to doing?”
While asking the question, Chuma came up with the answer himself.
There was a secret effort behind the scenes to get Hyeolcheondoma and Ilhwageomzon to reconcile. Thanks to this, many of the old conflicts between the two were resolved.
Ilhwa Geomzon is trying to connect Yeo-bin with himself even though he does not know this fact. Is life really spinning around?
“It’s because I’m tired of just doing what I used to do.”
When Ilhwa Geomzon held out his hand, a bottle of alcohol floated out of the box he had brought and flew towards the pavilion where she was sitting.
“You’re golden. Among all the alcohol, I saw that the most rare and expensive alcohol was selected. Well, since it is the hand of the Geomjon, it is the most precious.”
In the past, I might have been a little offended by that joke.
But I no longer felt angry. Because I was doing my best right now.
Yes, your hands are precious now.
Ilhwa Geomzon poured drinks for Yeobin, who brought snacks.
She politely accepted the drink and emptied the glass. Ilhwa Geomzon saw that her hand holding the glass was trembling with tension.
“Take another drink.”
Ilhwa Geomjon poured another glass, and even poured three glasses.
After drinking three glasses in a row, her hands stopped shaking.
“It seems like only yesterday that you came to Daechwirim. “So many years have already passed.”
“Do you remember that time?”
Ilhwageomjon nodded. I remembered her because she was one of the few among the guests. Of course, that did not mean that Yeobin meant anything to Ilhwa Geomzon’s life. It’s just that Ilhwa Geomzon recently went through a change of heart and she caught her eye.
When life changes, martial arts also changes.
It was the opposite of what the sword dance was saying. As martial arts changed, or more precisely, as her feelings toward martial arts changed, her life changed. In this way, life and martial arts influence each other like the front and back of a coin.
“You were young back then, I was quite young, and your Majon over there was quite cool.”
Chuma laughed quietly. Normally, he would have been making all kinds of jokes, saying that he looks cooler now, and accusing him of having a middle-aged charm. Today’s drink was calm.
Three people drank alcohol. Ilhwa Geomzon did not bring Chuma into the conversation. I just left him drinking alone and had a conversation with Yeo-bin. He asked various questions, but like an experienced swordsman, he did not ask questions that would make Yeobin uncomfortable.
Except for this question.
“Don’t you want to get married?”
Chwima looked at Ilhwa Geomzon with a look in his eyes as if he was asking about something pointless, but Ilhwa Geomzon ignored those gazes and waited for Yeobin’s answer.
“Yes, I have no idea.”
“Why isn’t it there?”
“What man would like a wife who drinks like this every day?”
“Just meet someone who likes drinking together. Aren’t there a lot of men in Daechwirim?”
Yeobin just smiled.
“How is your mazon?”
Then Chuma intervened.
“You’re talking nonsense! Are you drunk?”
Ilhwageomjon said to Chwima.
“Yeah, I’m drunk. Why don’t you get drunk when you drink so much? “If you’re drunk, you should get drunk!”
The gazes of the two people intertwined in midair.
Ilhwa Geomzon said what he had decided to say.
“Do you know why you’re so sulky and angry these days?”
Chuma was furious. Are you pouting? Are you going to say that in front of my subordinates now?
But Ilhwa Geomzon continued what he was saying.
“It’s because I endured it. Please note that I am older. Please note that this is Mazon. What is that guy’s age? What is face? Hey buddy. As you get older, you need to know how to express your desires in a dignified manner. “If you want to stop getting angry and sulking, you have to do that.”
Although he actually failed to reveal his desires in a dignified manner.
That’s why. Why does she have something to say about this? Because when she was lost in her thoughts even for a moment, she was always reminded of her own shameful desires of the past.
“Stop talking nonsense and go. “Stop wasting other people’s precious gifts.”
“no.”
“Then I’m going.”
Chu Ma, who went down Chu Meng Lu with a bottle of alcohol in his hand, launched a boat on the lake alone.
The two women looked at Chuma’s boat slowly drifting toward the moon’s shadow reflected on the water.
“Actually, that was what I said to you. “I know that even if I say this, he won’t listen.”
Yeobin looked at her with a surprised face.
“If you endure it again and again. “You’ll get upset at first, and then you’ll get angry.”
Because she knew very well what it meant, Yeobin could not answer at all.
“Are you scared? “Are you afraid that if this continues, the life you watch from the side will disappear?”
Still she didn’t say anything.
“If so, don’t be afraid. I wish I had watched this much. It’s a regret and a habit. “Let that life go.”
Silence fell on both Chumong Tower and the lake.
How much time has passed? A cool breeze blew from somewhere. As a result, Ilhwa Geomzon sobered up and came to his senses.
Am I in a position to give advice to anyone? How do you know so much about Yeobin?
Even though I went out for the sake of the two of them, I felt like I had gone too far. Should I say that I don’t remember because the alcohol was so strong?
“I said this when I was drunk, so don’t think too much about it.”
When Ilhwa Geomjon was about to get up, Yeobin finally opened her mouth.
“Geomjon saw it correctly. I am already upset and angry. “It’s been years since I’ve been angry.”
She was the first to reveal her true feelings. She didn’t notice that she was angry because she always had a polite attitude.
“Seeing you shaking like this even now, I guess I’m afraid that even this angry life will disappear.”
Yeo-bin’s eyes were trembling as she revealed her true feelings to someone for the first time.
Ilhwa Geomzon had nothing more to say. So I filled her glass with the best courage I could give to my guests.
“Try to be a real drunkard today.”
After saying that, he jumped away. She crossed the lake with such splendor and grace that it was almost impossible to say she was drunk.
When I got down to the lakeside and looked back, I saw Yeobin carrying a bottle of alcohol and flying to Chuma’s boat on the lake.
A smile appeared on Ilhwa Geomzon’s lips.
I was jealous of her youth, of being able to commit something even if she regretted it.
But it’s okay. From now on, I plan to live by expressing my desires.
Instead, in a noble and dignified way.
* * *
I arrived at Donggwonmun Gate with my brother.
He was a familiar face to everyone passing by because he had once trained from White Fist to Black Fist.
The way they looked at me and their attitude towards me was completely different between then and now.
I entered the inner hospital receiving a polite greeting from the Tekkens.
In the training hall in Naewon, Gwonma was training black fists.
He directly instructed only the training of the Black Fist, and Cheon So-hee was in charge of training the remaining Tekken.
“Master! “I’m back.”
“Are you here?”
It’s so nice to see Gwonma’s scary face after a long time.
While Gwonma greeted me bluntly, my brother greeted me with gentle eyes.
“Are you here? Archduke. “Put the heavy stuff down here.”
It wasn’t for me to just wait and see.
“The box I’m carrying is heavier! Do you discriminate against people?”
The reason for the discrimination was quickly revealed.
“I heard it many times from Kwak Bang-ju. “It is said that the Grand Duke went through a lot of trouble making the gauntlets.”
“It was definitely my job to do. “Today, the gauntlet was completed and brought to me.”
Geommuyang opened the box and showed the gauntlet.
In the meantime, Sohee Cheon, who had missed the opportunity to say hello and just bowed her head, came to me and whispered hello.
“I’m glad you came back safely, Master Xiao.”
“When we’re alone, call it a death sentence.”
Cheon So-hee is not with us now, right? He looked at Gwonma and his older brother with these eyes.
I told them again to listen. It was a cry disguised as a whisper.
“I’m fortunate to have such a kind sister under my cruel master.”
Gwonma looked at me and said.
“The more affectionate you are, the shorter your sister-in-law’s lifespan will be.”
“That’s not possible. Sweet Samae is cancelled! Samae, it’s Bijeong Gangho!”
Those watching smiled. Everyone knew my personality well, so the atmosphere was good.
The knight lifted his gauntlet and examined it.
“You put a thin metal net in your palm.”
“you’re right. It is light yet strong. “Cheolbang’s technology was concentrated in that area.”
Gwon Ma handed the gauntlet to Cheon So-hee.
Cheon So-hee personally tested the power of the gauntlet.
“First of all, the fit is very good.”
She ordered Tekken to bring the sword.
“Push out with all your might!”
Tekken, who had brought the sword, lashed out with force, and she blocked it with her palm.
Although it was quite powerful, the palm was still intact.
The black powers who were watching were amazed.
Gwonma nodded with satisfaction.
“That’s a wonderful gauntlet. “You worked hard.”
“Currently, 50 people can use it, but within a few months, we will produce and send the number of all Dongken Gate Tekkens.”
“I guess it’s thanks to your concern. “Thank you.”
Gwonma expressed his sincere gratitude, and Geommuyang smiled with satisfaction as the past effort was relieved.
While Sohee Cheon was handing out gauntlets to the black armourers, we walked around the inner circle together.
Gwonma talked more with Geommuyang than with me. From the story related to the production of this Gwon-gap to the kind of support that Dong-gwon-mun needs. We talked about many things related to work.
I felt it clearly as we walked together in silence. As expected, my brother is better at these things. It was a moment when I realized once again that someone must be meticulous and thorough in order to achieve the right results.
It was when we said goodbye and turned around that Gwonma sent a message.
-Good return.
-I’ll stop by again later.
This one word of Master’s hospitality for me was enough. Because it felt better than welcoming people by setting off hundreds of firecrackers.
I spoke to Geommuyang at the entrance of Donggwonmun Gate.
“hungry. Let’s eat together.”
“Since when did we eat together?”
“This time, when I went outside, I thought of my father and brother a lot.”
After a moment, Geommuyang spoke.
“Let’s have dinner with my father soon.”
I could tell. This is the answer to my words to take care of my father. The intention was to do it together.
“My brother buys the food.”
“hate. “You, the rich one, buy it.”
Surprisingly, my brother is getting better.
But you must not let down your guard. This is when mistakes between people occur. Because I commit it when things are just starting to get better. In times like these, you have to open your eyes even more and look at the other person.
I stood for a moment and looked at my brother’s back, then turned to the other side. The place I was heading to was Namdojong.
Hyeolcheondoma was in his residence.
“I’m back, old man.”
“Get over your travel fatigue, why did you come here?”
“Seeing the elderly is relaxing. “But why are you organizing books?”
He left out the collection of poetry and literary works and replaced them with military service books.
“These are the top grades I saw when I was young. “I want to be able to read Daeryong.”
“Everyone is overflowing with love for their students.”
“everyone?”
Originally, it was said about the head of Pungcheon Church.
“It means that I am also loved by Madam Gwon.”
“Good luck. “I’m lucky if I don’t get beaten up.”
“Can you help me clean up?”
“It’s all done.”
I squatted down and looked through the books that Hyeolcheondoma had piled up.
“There are a lot of books I haven’t seen before. “Please lend it to me.”
“Do you have time to read books?”
“Even if you don’t have it, you have to pay.”
As I was flipping through the books, Hyeolcheon Doma asked while organizing the bookshelf.
“Were they the same guys from the Murim Alliance?”
He was with Hyeolcheon Doma when he captured Baekcheon-gyeong of the Murim Alliance.
“Yes, I think we are on the same side.”
“There are no windy days in this damn Wulin.”
Hyeolcheondoma did not ask any more questions about him and chose a few books for him.
“I’ll lend it to you again when I finish reading it.”
“I’ll stop by again.”
I returned to my residence with the book lent me by Hyeolcheon Doma at my side.
Jeokyeon, who was waiting, held out a bottle of alcohol.
“what’s this?”
“It’s a gift.”
“gift?”
“When buying a gift for Mr. Chuma, we saved up our money and bought a bottle.”
Looking at it, it was one of the more expensive alcoholic drinks given to Chuma as a gift. When I bought it, it seems like the escorts also bought a separate bottle without me knowing.
“Where do you have your money?”
“You may not know who we are, but we are like the guards of the small sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Church. “I get a lot of money.”
It was a self-deprecating joke from the enemy. They probably feel like they are being protected rather than protecting me.
“Thank you for the gift. “Eat sparingly.”
“Then I will leave.”
Just like that, the enemy disappeared, and I washed myself and changed into new clothes.
Instead of turning off the lights and lying down in bed, I took a book and a drink.
Just right.
I opened my own space with space-time transformation.
Clear sea, white sandy beach, blue sky, broad-leafed trees, and comfortable chairs underneath.
“You guys, I missed you!”
I lay down in a comfortable chair.
“Ah, good.”
What a feeling of happiness here! The Pungcheon Sect leader says he must be wary of people who have mastered illusions falling into his own world, but he cannot give up this space.
When I look back on my past life, the most important and necessary thing as I got older was my own space and my own time.
At least here, I was able to forget about everything else in the world and quietly enjoy my own rest.
Today we added one more thing to the sanctuary.
A small chair appeared next to my chair.
A big box was placed on top of it.
“How do you feel? Do you like it?”
He was smiling brightly as if the flight path was good.
I lay down on a chair, sipped a drink, and read a book. All I could hear was the sound of the wind, the cries of seagulls, and the sound of pages turning. Even if she were given all of Wulin, she wouldn’t trade it for this moment.
The first day of school, which was busier since I came back, passed like this.
