Episode 199. Flashback (4)

Become a cult leader. The moment he heard those words, So Wol-hyeon became mute and couldn’t say anything.

“…What on earth does that mean?”

“…….”

“It’s a boring prank.”

So Wol-hyeon tried to laugh it off, thinking that it was a joke.

However, So Il-hyun’s expression still showed seriousness, and the moment she saw it, So Wol-hyun knew that what he had just said was not a joke at all.

“…This isn’t a joke?”

“Yes. I am serious.”

“…….”

“I think you are also qualified to be a cult leader.”

Ilwoldan (日月團). That was the name of the organization that could be said to be the origin of Cheonmasingyo.

The beginning was very simple.

So Il-Hyeon and So Wol-Hyeon. In the beginning, there were only two members of the organization.

It gradually grew in size, absorbed all the surrounding powers, and now became the largest power in Xinjiang.

“I was the leader of the Ilwoldan. And that has continued on, and I am still leading the Cheonmasingyo today.”

“…….”

“But I think that even if you had sat there instead of me, the current Cheonmasingyo would still exist.”

That was So Il-Hyeon’s true heart.

Although all the achievements were directed at him because he was the leader, So Wol-Hyeon’s contributions to the Cheonmasingyo were by no means inferior to his own.

However, because he is not noticeable, people around him do not hold So Wol-hyeon in high regard.

Even those within the church who know the truth will recognize that Sowolhyun is an essential figure to the Cheonmasingyo.

“I think your current position is too low compared to your achievements. In fact, I wanted to put you in the vice-chairman position… but then there would be a lot of talk internally.”

So Wol-hyeon was currently the leader of the Wol-gyo-dae.

Of course, the Wolgyo-dae is one of the core forces of the Cheonmasin Church, and the leader of such a place also had a considerable position internally.

However, considering the achievements that So Wol-hyeon has made so far, it could be said that it is an undervalued position.

As I just said, So Il-hyun thought that So Wol-hyun should at least sit in the vice-principal’s seat.

“…….”

Considering that he was an early member of Ilwoldan and his achievements, Sowolhyun should have been appointed vice-chairman.

But there were circumstances there.

The reason why the current Cheonmasingyo has grown so rapidly in power is because it joined hands with a bloodline called the Macheonjok (魔天族).

From that point on, the power of Ilwoldan grew rapidly, and with that momentum, it grew to its current size.

“…I know.”

“…….”

“Cheon Gu-yong, the vice-principal must be in that position.”

That was the reason why So Wol-hyeon could not become the vice-regent.

Cheon Gu-yong was a figure who could be said to be the representative of the Macheon tribe, and since the Cheonmasingyo was established through the union of Ilwoldan and the Macheon tribe, his position had to be guaranteed to a certain extent.

The leader’s position is in Ilwoldan. So, there is only one position left.

That position was the vice-principal. It was the position currently held by Cheon Gu-yong.

“If you were to be placed in the position of Vice-Cult Leader, the Macheon Tribe would not just sit back and watch. They might think that they are being neglected just because you, their younger brother, were appointed Vice-Cult Leader.”

“…….”

“At worst, the Macheon tribe could rebel. That would be a very bad trend for the current Cheonma Sect.”

The Cheonmasingyo sect was just at its starting point.

If things are going smoothly but there is internal division, isn’t the future of the organization obvious?

At least So Il-Hyeon did not want to create any unrest until Cheonmasingyo was completely established as an organization.

“So I thought about it. How can I satisfy the Macheon Tribe while also getting a proper evaluation from the world?”

“…Is that the way to make me a cult leader?”

“Yes. That’s my conclusion.”

The Macheon tribe will not express their discontent if only the position of vice-regent is guaranteed.

Then wouldn’t it be a problem if he just gave up his position as the leader?

So Wol-hyeon was an early member of Ilwoldan, and there were quite a few forces supporting him internally, so there was no major problem with him becoming the leader.

“Of course there will be opposing opinions. But to that extent, we can resolve it.”

“…….”

“What do you think? If it’s okay with you, I…….”

“Japanese eclipse.”

At that time, So Wol-hyeon muttered in a low voice.

The words came clearly to his ears, and So Il-hyun looked at So Wol-hyun silently with slightly widened eyes.

“Have you forgotten? No matter what, we are one.”

“…….”

“My wish from long ago has been for my brother to become the strongest. So it’s right for him to sit in that position, not me.”

“…Wolhyeon.”

Are you really okay with that?

So Il-Hyeon was still concerned about her younger brother, who had been living as her shadow until now.

Even if they were his brothers, he didn’t think he could stand it… So Wol-Hyeon smiled and pretended to be his shadow as if nothing had happened.

“Are you really okay with that?”

A head nodding silently.

So Il-hyeon watched the scene quietly and then opened her mouth.

“i get it.”

“…….”

“thank you.”

There were many emotions mixed in that brief thank you.

So Wol-hyeon smiled faintly as she stood up from her seat, then bowed her head slightly as she returned to her usual expressionless face.

“…….”

Soon, Sowolhyun went out of the tent.

Even though quite some time has passed since then, So Il-Hyeon is still left alone in the tent.

At that time, So Il-Hyeon muttered in a low voice.

“Moon-hyeon……. There is another meaning to the solar eclipse.”

The phenomenon of the moon swallowing the sun. That was the original meaning of a solar eclipse.

* * *

Sowolhyun was still busy treating the injured today.

“…….”

A haggard face and cold sweat running down his forehead.

He had been taking care of the injured for more than three days, sleeping soundly, so it wouldn’t have been strange if he had collapsed from exhaustion right away.

Still, So Wol-hyeon maintained her wits and placed needles on the injured person’s body. When she had placed the last needle, she finally wiped the sweat from her forehead and sighed.

“Your Majesty.”

“…….”

“Leave the cleanup to me and get some rest.”

At that moment, the man next to her immediately spoke to So Wol-hyeon.

“No, it’s okay. I’ll continue right away.”

“There is not much time left until the coronation. But you cannot go in that state, right?”

“Ah… Is it today?”

I was so focused on treatment that I forgot about that fact.

As if he had realized belatedly that today was the coronation, So Wol-hyeon glanced at his own condition.

“…….”

Even though his face was haggard, his clothes were quite dirty.

When treating patients, it was common to find blood on my clothes.

The clothes that So Wol-hyeon was currently wearing were also stained with blood all over, and it seemed like she wouldn’t be able to attend the coronation ceremony in this condition.

“You can just change your clothes later.”

The coronation ceremony was scheduled to begin at around 5 o’clock.

Since it was still dawn and the sun had not yet risen, So Wol-hyeon tried to take care of the injured a little more.

however.

“No.”

“…….”

“The Lord is the face of our Wolgyodae. So, you must go in good health.”

The man immediately stopped So Wol-hyeon.

Since he knew that So Wol-hyeon would act like that, the man tried to force So Wol-hyeon to stand up.

“Go, wash up and get some sleep.”

“I’m fine…….”

“We can’t do that! Isn’t that all?”

At that moment, voices supporting the man’s words could be heard one after another from those around him.

“Leave this to us!”

“That’s right. Our Lord is so handsome. He should show his handsome face to people.”

“Please go. We can’t rest because of you, my lord.”

The team members knew very well how much Sowolhyun usually worked hard to help the injured.

A person who works harder than Daewon. Sowolhyun was that kind of person.

Although he was not particularly good at speaking or had the ability to lead others, the fact that he quietly did his own work could be said to be So Wol-hyeon’s strong point.

All the members of the Wolgyodae sincerely followed and respected So Wol-hyeon.

“Did you hear that?”

“…….”

“Get ready quickly.”

“…I don’t know who the main character of the Wolgyodae is.”

Although he said that, So Wol-hyeon didn’t seem to dislike the situation that much.

So Wol-hyeon burst into laughter without realizing it, and soon got up from her seat as if she had no choice.

* * *

At dawn, Sowol-hyeon was sitting there, looking ready.

Clean clothes and neat hair. So Wol-hyeon looked so neat that it felt like she had changed.

‘I thought the coronation ceremony was held in Cheonsan?’

That was the headquarters of the Cheonmasin religion.

Although I haven’t been to the scene myself because I was busy taking care of the injured, I think I’ve heard that a funeral parlor was being prepared there.

“…….”

So Wol-hyeon checked her appearance one last time through the mirror.

Although he spoke to his subordinates in that manner, it was only natural that So Wol-hyeon would want to attend the coronation ceremony in a neat and tidy manner.

Today is the day his older brother becomes the leader of the Cheonmasin Church.

Because it was both her brother’s wish and her own, So Wol-hyeon also sincerely wanted to celebrate that moment.

‘This day has really come.’

The promise that brothers made when they were young. So Wol-hyeon was simply overwhelmed with emotion at the fact that it had become a reality after so long.

I wonder if my brother feels the same way?

Once the coronation ceremony was over, I wanted to have a quiet conversation with my brother.

Of course, both of them are busy, so they don’t have time to look at the night sky and talk like they used to, but they still wanted to talk about their memories, even if it was briefly.

‘Let’s get going.’

Sowolhyeon was currently treating the injured at a temporary shelter located a short distance from Cheonsan.

Although they had a place to stay in Cheonsan, they were staying there until all the injured were treated.

Of course, I planned to return here right away after the coronation ceremony was over.

“Your Majesty.”

That was when.

Just as they were about to leave the barracks, a voice calling Sowolhyun was heard from the entrance.

“…Who is it?”

In response to that question, a man came in from outside.

The man bowed his head politely toward So Wol-hyeon, then immediately opened his mouth.

“I am a member of the daily training unit, Doiyeon.”

“One shift…….”

“I came to escort you to the restaurant.”

The daily shift was the direct command of the cult leader.

Does that mean that So Il-Hyeon sent someone for herself?

He even sent someone just in case he was late for the coronation ceremony. He really was a flawless person.

Thud- thud-.

After a while, So Wol-hyeon got on the carriage that had been prepared.

“If you don’t mind, please have some.”

“……?”

“This is the tea prepared by the cult leader.”

“The leader is giving me tea?”

“Yes, it’s a tea that helps you sleep well, so you can sleep comfortably until we arrive.”

I never thought you would prepare something like this.

He had heard that So Il-hyeon had prepared it for him, and since he was sleep-deprived, So Wol-hyeon accepted the tea and drank it without much suspicion.

“Then I will make you feel comfortable.”

Doyeon took the empty glass and closed the door.

Soon, the carriage began to move slowly with a groan, and So Wol-hyeon immediately felt her eyelids grow heavy.

‘… It works well.’

Could it be the effects of the tea I just drank? Or is it the fatigue that has built up over time coming all at once?

Although she didn’t know which of the two was making her eyelids feel so heavy, So Wol-hyeon closed her eyes, surrendering herself to the falling sleep.

Dalgrak- Dalgrak-.

The quiet sound of a carriage moving could be heard.

And So Wol-hyeon is asleep inside with her eyes closed.

How much time had passed like that? Suddenly, the carriage stopped in its tracks.

“Traitor So Wol-hyeon, show yourself!”

A sharp voice was heard from outside. So Wol-hyeon opened her eyes with a frown at the noise that woke her from her long-awaited sleep.
