Episode 220. Secret Call (1)

Cheon Myeong-myeong returned to the starting point where all the original candidates had gathered and was receiving treatment.

“Try moving slowly.”

“…….”

“Is there anything that feels uncomfortable?”

After the treatment was over, the doctor asked me this.

Cheon Myeong-myeong slowly moved his left arm and spoke to the doctor with a slight frown.

“It’s a little bitter.”

“There’s nothing we can do about it.”

“…….”

“For the time being, try not to move your left arm. It is okay to lift light objects.”

Light objects… …. That is, it meant that it was impossible to lift the Tao.

The Yeomma Sword was so heavy that even a healthy adult would have difficulty swinging it with one hand.

It seemed that I would have to refrain from using both the sword and the sword at the same time until my left arm was fully recovered.

“…How long exactly is that period of time?”

“Well, it varies from person to person, so it’s hard to say exactly.”

“There will probably be a rough time frame.”

“…It’s the full moon.”

It is not yet known when the next competition will begin.

If it starts within two weeks, does that mean I have to fight while carrying my injuries?

Of course, he was confident that he could fight with one hand, but the fact that he would have to fight that guy in the next match weighed heavily on Cheon Myeong-myeong’s mind.

‘A thousand days.’

Cheon Il-myeong will also participate in the next competition.

Of course, depending on the method, there may not be a direct clash with him, but with the number of people reduced to four, the possibility of fighting Cheon Il-myeong was high.

“…because I felt limited.”

“……?”

“Cheon Il Myeong, I couldn’t defeat that guy with my martial arts.”

A person that even Cheon Hae-gyeong, who had natural talent, could not defeat. That person was Cheon Il-myeong.

If he had not been able to manifest the Sword Power, he might have been defeated by Cheon Hae-gyeong. No, Cheon Myeong-myeong was certain that he would have been defeated.

‘Can the current me defeat Cheon Il Myeong?’

Even though he had manifested his sword, Cheon Myeong-Myeong was not sure about it.

In situations where you can’t use your left hand, victory becomes more uncertain.

Full moon… … No, even if he was given just ten days, he felt like he could go into the next competition in peak physical condition.

“Now that the treatment is finished, let’s move.”

“movement?”

“Yes, there were instructions to bring him here once Confucius’s treatment was finished.”

“…….”

Where are you trying to take yourself?

For a moment, such a question occurred to him, but Cheon Myeong-myeong did not ask and just stood up.

Cheon Myeong-myeong followed the doctor out of the barracks and walked silently, following his guidance.

“……?”

Before I knew it, it had become bright outside.

As he walked along the assemblyman’s path, Cheon Myeong-myeong was able to spot familiar faces in the front.

‘That’s the place.’

The place where the candidates gathered before the start of the Magic Blood War. The place where Cheon Myeong-myeong arrived was that very plain.

As before, the candidates gathered on the plains.

It seems that they have called us back here since all the successful candidates have come out.

Of course, compared to that time, you can see at a glance that the number has decreased significantly.

Swish-.

As soon as he arrived there, Cheon Myeong-myeong tried to find Cheon Yu-su and Cheon Aeng-hwa.

If they survived, they would definitely be here too.

Cheon Myeong-myeong looked away with a slightly anxious heart, but soon heard a voice calling him and a smile of relief appeared on his lips.

“denomination!”

Cheon Yu-su was running towards this place.

Like Cheon Myeong-myeong, he appeared to have been injured, but his injuries appeared to be minor and not life-threatening.

It seemed as if Cheon Aeng Hwa had survived as well, and she was slowly walking towards us from behind Cheon Yu Su.

“You are safe too!”

“Yes, I’m glad that you’re safe, brother.”

“Really… Where the hell have you been until now?”

“It would take a long time to explain.”

It was too complicated to explain here.

When Cheon Myeong-myeong said that, Cheon Yu-su let out a sigh as if lamenting.

“At least you didn’t have to suffer as much as I did.”

“…….”

“It was truly hell. Ominous sounds kept coming from all directions. Even if you ran away, the enemies kept chasing you…….”

“So, you’ve collected a thousand enemy badges?”

“Enemy defeat? No way.”

It seemed that Cheon Yu-su was not one of the two remaining successful candidates.

Since he had not hoped to pass in the first place, Cheon Myeong-myeong was satisfied with the fact that Cheon Yu-su had survived well on his own.

“denomination.”

At that time, Cheon Aeng-hwa also came near.

“What was the result?”

As soon as he got closer, Cheon Aeng-hwa asked him that first.

Although he seemed a bit cold, if Cheon Myeong-myeong had asked the question first, it seemed like he would have asked Cheon Aeng-hwa first whether she had passed.

“I finally passed.”

“You were the last one to pass.”

“What about you, sister?”

At that question, Cheon Aeng-hwa smiled slightly, raising the corners of her lips.

Even before hearing the answer, Cheon Myeong-myeong could already tell whether Cheon Yeong-hwa would pass or fail just by looking at her expression.

“I passed too.”

“…….”

“I tried to join you and fight as much as possible, but the situation wasn’t favorable for that.”

“Well done. That was the right decision.”

If she had prioritized joining, Cheon Aeng-hwa might not have passed.

To begin with, Cheon Myeong-myeong was in a completely different region from the candidates.

Since joining was nearly impossible, Cheon Myeong-myeong quickly submitted his application to confirm his acceptance early.

“Do you know who the other one is?”

There were a total of four successful candidates.

Cheon Myeong-myeong and Cheon Aeng-hwa. And even Cheon Il-myeong, who passed the exam early.

Aside from those three, there was one more person left, so Cheon Myeong-Myeong asked Cheon Aeng-Hwa that question.

“Well, maybe it’s him?”

“…….”

“But I’ve been looking for you since a while ago, but I can’t see you. Are you still on your way here?”

“Is that person talking about Cheon Hae-gyeong?”

“that’s right.”

Cheon Aeng-hwa naturally thought the other person was Cheon Hae-gyeong.

As if he had known this would happen, Cheon Myeong-myeong spoke in a calm tone.

“It’s not a thousand-year-old mirror.”

“What? No?”

“yes.”

“…How can you be so sure?”

“…….”

“Wait a minute… You, really?”

As if she had noticed something from Cheon Myeong-myeong’s tone and expression, Cheon Aeng-hwa’s eyes widened in disbelief.

There was only one reason why Cheon Myeong-myeong could be so sure.

“You are the Heavenly Mirror…….”

That was when.

Cheon Aeng-hwa swallowed her words and looked in that direction, feeling a heavy energy coming from somewhere.

“……!”

Cheon Si-rang. He was walking towards me.

At the sudden appearance of the cult leader, Cheon Aeng-hwa hurriedly knelt down, and soon the others noticed Cheon Si-rang’s presence and lowered their postures all at once.

chuck-.

After a while, Cheon Si-rang stopped in his tracks and looked at the candidates silently.

Among them, it seemed like everyone was looking at Cheon Myeong-myeong, but Cheon Si-rang immediately turned his gaze away and opened his mouth.

“Fifteen.”

“……?”

“The number of deaths resulting from this competition.”

Cheon Si-rang suddenly announced the number of deaths that occurred in the Magic Blood War.

‘There are quite a few dead.’

As soon as I got here, I knew that the number of candidates had decreased significantly.

Were all those who weren’t here dead?

More than half of the people died, but Cheon Myeong-myeong, like Cheon Si-rang, just thought about it calmly.

“At least those who survived there and are here now have proven their strength to some extent.”

“…….”

“Therefore, we will not impose sanctions even on candidates who do not pass.”

It was quite an unexpected statement.

I thought that, like before, the losers would be mercilessly killed or their danjeon destroyed, but this time it seemed like they were going to leave the losers alone.

“Good!”

At that moment, a voice full of joy was heard from somewhere.

Everyone’s eyes turned to the direction where the voice had just come from, and there, Cheon Yu-su was standing up, clenching his fist.

‘this…….’

It seemed like he couldn’t contain his joy and got up from his seat without realizing it.

Of course, I can understand why you’re happy, but it’s hard to be happy openly when Cheon Si-rang is still right in front of you.

Now, Cheon Yu-su seemed to realize his mistake and hurriedly knelt down with a bewildered look on his face.

‘What happens?’

Even if Cheon Yu-su acted rashly, surely that wouldn’t change anything?

No, I thought that it could definitely be possible for Cheon Si-rang.

Cheon Yu-su’s body was trembling with fear, and soon Cheon Si-rang’s voice was heard from the front.

“Are you that happy?”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”

“No, it’s something to be happy about.”

“……?”

“But for now, please refrain from doing so.”

At those words, Cheon Yu-su looked at Cheon Si-rang with blank eyes.

As if he understood what Cheon Si-rang meant, Cheon Yu-su immediately lowered his head.

“thank you!”

It seemed like Cheon Si-rang just let Cheon Yu-su’s mistake slide.

Everyone was secretly surprised by his unusually generous attitude.

“A Thousand Cherry Blossoms.”

“yes.”

“Cheon Tae-bong.”

“Yes, Master!”

At that time, Cheon Si-rang called the name.

The people whose names were called stood up, and Cheon Myeong-myeong could immediately tell who the people Cheon Si-rang had just called were.

‘Is that guy another successful candidate?’

Cheon Myeong-myeong, still on his knees, glanced at the large man who had just gotten up from his seat.

4th in the series. Cheon Taebong.

The man with the heavy horizontal bar next to him, which was as big as his body, was the only other successful candidate.

Cheon Myeong-myeong checked his face as if trying to remember him, and soon got up from his seat when he heard a voice calling him.

“A thousand years of destiny.”

“…yes.”

Three people stand up from their seats when Cheon Si-rang calls their names.

Excluding Cheon Il-myeong, who is not here now, these people will compete with each other for the position of the leader of the small sect in the next competition.

There was already a strange atmosphere flowing between the three of them, as if a war of nerves was underway.

“The three people whose names I just called are the ones who passed this competition.”

“…….”

“Not only did they survive the fierce battle, but they also proved their own strength.”

Now the end was really in sight.

There are three here and a thousand people. Now there are only four candidates left.

Among them, only one can become the leader of the cult.

It hasn’t been decided yet who it will be, but the outlines seem to have been revealed to some extent.

“The next competition will be held on the Celestial Stage.”

“……!”

“The new leader of this sect is born in front of thousands of followers.”

At that moment, people’s eyes widened in surprise.

The Heavenly Stage. It was the largest stage in the Magic Church.

Of course, it was not open during normal times, but was a special place that was only open during special events.

As a follower of the Magical Church, fighting there is an honor that can be said to be the pride of a lifetime.

Performing a martial arts game in front of thousands of people was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

‘… fight there.’

That would be tantamount to proving one’s strength in front of the followers of the Magic Church.

For Cheon Myeong-myeong, it was also an opportunity to shake off the name Baek Gong-ja that had been attached to his name like a label.

Even if you are not from the Magical Hundred School, if you prove your strength there, everyone will have no choice but to acknowledge you as a cult leader.

closely-.

Thinking about it, Cheon Myeong-myeong unconsciously felt his hands tighten.

He never thought that Cheon Si-rang would give him such a good opportunity.

If you defeat Cheon Il-myeong on the spot, even if he is Cheon Si-rang, he will have no choice but to acknowledge you as the leader of the cult.

-Come to Peach Blossom Spring.

At that moment, a voice rang in Cheon Myeong-myeong’s head.

Cheon Myeong-Myeong realized that it was a telegram and looked at the person who had just sent the telegram to him.

Whoosh-.

However, Cheon Si-rang was already walking away, his back turned to me.

‘…Come to Peach Blossom Land?’

Does that mean you have something to say to him there?

If it had been normal, he would have sent someone else to call him, but he couldn’t understand why he had to call him over the phone right after the competition was over.

“…….”

A long-awaited private meeting with Cheon Si-rang.

At this point, with only four candidates left, Cheon Myeong-myeong had no idea what Cheon Si-rang would say to him.
