Episode 206. Genius (1)

There was a strange atmosphere flowing through the room, as if a storm had just struck.

The Magic Blood War was to be held in two days. As the name suggests, everyone here guessed that quite a bit of blood would be shed there.

Swish-.

Cheon Si-rang turned around as if he had said everything he wanted to say.

Until then, people had been bowing their heads, but when Cheon Si-rang could no longer be seen, they began to raise their heads one by one.

“We will notify you separately about the Magic Blood War later.”

“…….”

“Until then, I hope you all do your best.”

As Cheon Si-rang disappeared, Nakcheonmun began to speak again.

At that moment, a person was walking towards Nakcheonmun Gate.

As if he had discovered Cheon Il-myeong approaching him, Nakcheonmun also remained silent and watched him.

“I have already surpassed a thousand enemy soldiers.”

“…….”

“What happens in that case?”

The standard for passing the third round was one thousand red flags.

However, Cheon Il-myeong already had more enemy weapons than him, so there was no reason for him to participate in the Demon Blood War.

As if he had expected such a question to come up, Nakcheonmun answered the question right away.

“In the case of Confucius Cheon Il Myeong, there is no need to participate in the Demon Blood War.”

“…….”

“You have already been processed as a successful candidate and can participate in the next competition.”

The Magic Blood War was a match to fill in the candidates’ lack of enemy identity.

In the case of Cheon Il Myeong, there was no need to participate in the Magic Blood War because he already had enough enemy weapons.

Passing right from the start. It must have been quite a disappointing situation for the other candidates.

‘One spot is already gone.’

According to Cheon Si-rang, successful applicants will be selected on a first-come, first-served basis.

There are only four empty seats, but one has already disappeared right before my eyes.

This leaves three spots left.

There were already some people who were showing signs of anxiety about that fact.

“I refuse.”

At that moment, unexpected words came out of Cheon Il-myeong’s mouth.

Not only Nakcheonmun, but also other people looked at Cheon Il-myeong with questioning eyes.

“Rejection… What do you mean?”

“I also intend to participate in the Demon Blood War.”

“…Didn’t you just tell me that you already passed?”

“Yeah, I heard.”

As he said that, Cheon Il-myeong turned his head.

Where his dry eyes were directed, the candidates were standing, and Cheon Il-myeong muttered softly while looking at them.

“There is no need to wait until next time.”

“……?”

“The Demon Blood War. Isn’t it a problem that can be solved by killing everyone there?”

It was a very calm tone of voice.

How can you say that you’re going to kill everyone as if it were nothing, like you were breathing?

It was an extremely absurd statement, but no one thought it was absurd because the person who said it was Cheon Il-myeong.

“No.”

“…….”

“It is not your will. Since you have already met the requirements, you cannot participate in the Magic Blood War.”

At that moment, Nakcheonmun’s voice broke the silence flowing in the room.

Soft but firm tone.

Cheon Il-myeong was looking at Nakcheonmun with dry eyes, but he could sense considerable dissatisfaction beyond that.

“…….”

Cheon Il-myeong stares at the Nakcheonmun Gate without saying a word.

Nakcheonmun also did not avoid Cheon Il-myeong’s gaze, and a suffocating tension began to fill the room again.

“…Then I guess there’s no need to stay here anymore.”

At that moment, Cheon Il-myeong quietly muttered and started walking.

Perhaps it was because he had heard something from Cheon Si-rang. Surprisingly, Cheon Il-myeong seemed to have backed down obediently.

Thud- thud-.

The sound of footsteps quietly heard amidst the stillness.

Within a few minutes, Cheon Il-myeong had completely passed through the main gate and gone out of the council.

“…This is the end of the message.”

“…….”

“We will not be accepting any questions regarding the Magic Blood War, so please wait until the announcement is made.”

After saying those words, Nakcheonmun also left the place.

Only then did the air in the intestines become somewhat lighter.

The announcement wasn’t that long, but the people present felt as if hours had passed.

‘Two days later.’

That’s where it starts.

Cheon Myeong-Myeong also tried to leave early to devise a plan for the Magic Blood War.

“A thousand years of destiny.”

Then someone called Cheon Myeong Myeong.

It was not the voice of Cheon Aeng-hwa or Cheon Yu-su.

Cheon Myeong-myeong stopped walking and looked in that direction at the voice of a rather unfamiliar man.

‘That guy… … .’

A man was looking this way with a smiling face.

The voice sounded quite unfamiliar, but Cheon Myeong-myeong knew who it was as soon as he saw the face.

Second in line, Cheon Hae-kyung.

Aside from Cheon Il-myeong, he was probably the closest person to the small sect leader. Cheon Il-myeong immediately looked at him with a wary look at his sudden approach.

“Don’t look at me like that.”

“…….”

“Is this your first time having a conversation like this?”

“I would never have spoken to someone ranked 100th.”

Cheon Hae-gyeong spoke to him in a very friendly manner, but Cheon Myeong-myeong’s response was extremely curt.

After all, isn’t the opponent someone you’ll have to fight in two days?

Even without that, I didn’t have any particularly good feelings towards the Magical Ten Family, so I couldn’t give a good answer.

“I didn’t mean to discriminate in any way. I’m sorry if I made you feel that way.”

“……?”

“I guess I was careless.”

It was a completely unexpected answer.

Instead of getting angry, he apologized instead.

Cheon Myeong-myeong thought that he would draw his sword because he had spoken rudely to him, but instead, he spoke to him in such a way that he tilted his head inwardly.

‘Is it acting?’

Of course, Cheon Myeong-myeong did not think that was Cheon Hae-gyeong’s real appearance.

I guess he’s just hiding his true nature now.

As if trying to take off his mask, Cheon Myeong-myeong opened his mouth in a very provocative tone.

“I’m busy, you know. I’d like you to just tell me what’s going on.”

“I was careless again.”

“…….”

“I was just curious. Why did Cheon Il-myeong just put his sword away and pass by?”

Cheon Hae-gyeong still had a smiling face.

At that moment, the eyes that had been smiling faintly opened slightly.

“If it’s okay with you, I’d like to have a fight.”

“……?”

“Oh, of course I won’t be a scapegoat. The main event is in two days.”

“Does that mean… you want to practice martial arts with me?”

“yes.”

It was an unexpected offer.

He never thought that Cheon Hae-gyeong would offer him a secret weapon.

Of course, it was just a practice match, but no matter how much it was practice, it was inevitable that he would be quite cautious about doing a match at this point.

“…….”

The Battle of Magic Blood. There is a good chance that you will fight Cheon Hae-gyeong there.

Considering that, revealing your power may not be a good thing, but if you think about it differently, isn’t it the same for the other person?

Since Cheon Il-myeong is not participating in the Magic Blood War, the most difficult opponent is likely to be Cheon Hae-gyeong, so if you have some idea of ​​his power, you may be able to turn the battle to your advantage later on.

“…good night.”

Let’s see in advance if you can smile like that even when fighting.

When Cheon Myeong-myeong answered like that, Cheon Hae-gyeong smiled quietly.

* * *

The two left the council and moved to the training ground.

They were facing each other from a little distance away, and then Cheon Hae-kyung’s gaze turned to the side.

“For practice, would it be better to use a wooden sword rather than a real sword?”

“No, let’s do it with a real sword.”

“……?”

“Wouldn’t that be a better way to test each other’s skills?”

Anyway, the reason why they were fighting each other now was decided.

In a magic blood battle, isn’t it the purpose of a secret battle to figure out whether the opponent will become one’s rival?

If that’s the case, then your skills will be much better demonstrated with the weapon you normally use rather than a wooden sword.

“…Okay. I’ll follow your advice.”

Cheon Hae-gyeong also smiled and nodded immediately.

But as if there was still something bothering him, Cheon Hae-gyeong looked somewhere again.

“Did I bother you?”

When Cheon Hae-gyeong met her eyes, Cheon Aeng-hwa asked calmly.

The azaleas and the water lilies stand naturally over there as if they had always been there.

Originally, there were cases where spectators were present during the match, but this was only with the permission of the person involved.

Cheon Hae-gyeong had never once given Cheon Aeng-hwa permission to watch the fight, so honestly, even if she got angry in this situation, Cheon Aeng-hwa had nothing to say.

“Usually, you would have to ask permission before watching.”

However, Cheon Hae-gyeong did not get angry and still kept smiling.

At this point, it would have been natural for her to leave, but Cheon Aeng-hwa did not leave, even grabbing Cheon Yu-su’s arm as he tried to leave.

“Where are you going?”

“Ha, but you just told me to leave…….”

“I told you to ask permission, I didn’t tell you to leave.”

“Then go watch it by yourself. Why do I keep…….”

When Cheon Aeng-hwa looked at him, Cheon Yu-su had no choice but to swallow his words and stop in his tracks again.

After confirming that, Cheon Aeng-hwa looked at Cheon Hae-gyeong with a smiling face again.

“I forgot. Would it be okay if I watched for a bit, Brother?”

It was a rather shameless attitude, but Cheon Aeng-hwa wanted to watch Bi-mu even at this cost.

‘This is an opportunity to test Cheon Hae-gyeong’s skills.’

The higher the ranking, the more the candidates tended to keep their abilities to themselves.

Especially Cheon Il-myeong and Cheon Hae-gyeong. It can be said that the skills of these two people are almost unknown.

Since Cheon Aeng-hwa didn’t have a good grasp of the two people’s abilities, she didn’t want to miss this unexpected opportunity.

Swish-.

At Cheon Aeng-hwa’s question, Cheon Hae-gyeong looked straight at Cheon Myeong-myeong.

“What do you want to do?”

“…….”

“As long as you’re okay with it, I don’t mind letting you watch.”

“Then I will allow it.”

Anyway, Cheon Myeong-myeong was in a position where it didn’t really matter if he showed his skills in front of those two people.

When Cheon Myeong-myeong answered like that, Cheon Hae-gyeong immediately looked at Cheon Aeng-hwa and said.

“Okay. I will allow it.”

“Thank you, brother.”

Cheon Aeng-hwa seemed delighted at being allowed to watch, and without realizing it, her words came out in a coquettish tone.

Cheon Yu-su stares blankly at the sight.

Soon, Cheon Yu-su hurriedly turned his gaze away as Cheon Aeng-hwa looked at him with her usual expression.

“Shall we decide not to use each other’s swords?”

“Or so you say.”

“Are you ready?”

In response to that question, Cheon Myeong-myeong drew his sword without saying a word.

Cheon Hae-gyeong quietly let out a laugh and grabbed the sword on his waist with his left hand.

‘…He’s not rushing in.’

The fight began, but the two still stood in place.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that a fight didn’t start.

A war of exploration, looking at each other. The two continued to stare at each other like wild beasts waiting for an opportunity.

“…….”

It seemed that Cheon Hae-gyeong had no intention of attacking first.

Seeing that sight of him not even drawing his sword, Cheon Myeong-myeong was the first to kick the ground and move.

Pot-.

A movement that faces the sky straight ahead.

Since the purpose was to observe what kind of moves the opponent would make, Cheon Myeong-myeong did not mix in any unconventional moves.

‘what?’

As the distance grew closer, Cheon Myeong-myeong couldn’t help but have such doubts in his heart.

Cheon Hae-kyung still hasn’t drawn his sword.

Although he considered watching the situation for a moment, Cheon Myeong-myeong swung his sword without hesitation.

visor-!

At that moment, Cheon Myeong-myeong’s sword strike was blocked with a loud noise.

It was expected that Cheon Hae-gyeong would counterattack his attack, but Cheon Myeong-myeong’s eyes widened slightly as he confirmed the number of times his sword had been deflected.

‘This is… … .’

Cheon Hae-gyeong’s sword that had just blocked his own sword strike… … It felt like I had definitely seen it somewhere before.
