Episode 45. Shadow Warrior (4)

The warrior handed the woman a jug of water containing nerve poison, saying:

“Would you like a glass?”

“No, it’s okay.”

The woman who waved her hand drank the water in the bucket.

Gulp.

The neurotoxin entered the woman’s body through the esophagus.

The boy’s face was crumpled.

“How much is that!”

At the child’s words, Musa took a coin out of his bosom and placed it on the table.

“This is the price of water.”

“ah.”

The boy looked into the kitchen with a crumpled expression and put his thumb down.

The kitchen lady, who had received the signal, picked up the lantern.

Phishing!

A poisonous needle came out of the long pole and struck the warrior.

Sigh.

In an absurd situation that occurred in an instant, a woman in white clothes drew her sword.

Sling.

However, the black color stopped halfway through.

dump.

The woman in white robes was also poisoned by the nerve toxin.

The boy shook his hands and spat on the floor.

“Ugh, things are getting complicated today.”

Just then a woman came out of the kitchen.

“Well, I guess it’s just some extra income.”

“Then, should we start by looking at the side income?”

The boy smiled brightly and picked up the kitchen knife he had thrown across the kitchen.

Hanbin, who was listening to their conversation from the main beam, held his head.

The real reason things got messed up was because it was Hanbin.

The woman in white attire who had just collapsed was none other than Musoyul of the Musi Sword Family.

The fact that he came here with Musa made it clear that he had business to attend to.

Now was the perfect time for misunderstandings.

But I couldn’t just watch it like that.

While Hanbin was sighing from above, the boy strode towards Musoyul.

Then the woman said.

“I’ll cut this guy.”

The woman who killed him pointed to Imoo-myeong.

“Do as you wish.”

The grinning boy raised the kitchen knife high and then brought it down.

Whoosh!

Musoyul’s neck was on the verge of being cut off.

The boy tilted his head.

It was clear that he had struck with a kitchen knife, but the target’s neck was intact. In addition, it felt a bit hollow.

The boy looked down.

“oh!”

The boy screamed.

On the floor lay the wrist of a boy clutching a kitchen knife.

Hanbin used the ‘Immediate Strike’ technique from the Yongrin Sword Technique.

The lightning-quick and overlapping techniques were so fast that Salsu didn’t even realize his own hand was falling off.

Hanbin subdued the blood of the boy who was writhing in pain.

dump!

With the boy down, Hanbin’s next target was the woman who killed him.

Hanbin’s new body, which had suddenly disappeared from its seat, appeared behind the woman.

puck!

Hanbin subdued the woman’s demon blood.

dump!

The woman fell down like a reed.

“phew.”

Hanbin wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Now, all that was left to do was to take Imoo-myeong and disappear from here. The rest of the matter would be resolved naturally if reported to the Mu clan.

The true identity of the killer will also be revealed at the Musi Sword Inspection.

“Lee Moo-myeong, come to your senses.”

“… … .”

Imoo-myeong didn’t respond at all.

Hanbin had no choice but to support Imoo-myeong.

Hanbin, who was about to leave the inn, opened his eyes wide.

Because a completely unimaginable sight unfolded before my eyes.

The area in front of the tavern was filled with warriors in white uniforms.

It was a spectacular sight to see at least a hundred warriors, all wearing the same white uniform, lined up under the moonlight.

Of course, this was when it had nothing to do with Hanbin.

One of the warriors came out and asked me.

“What on earth did my lord do?”

As the warrior nodded, another warrior ran inside.

The warrior who ran inside shouted.

“Miss Musoyul has collapsed!”

“what?”

The warrior glared at him with a sinister glare.

It looks like they suspect Hanbin is the culprit.

Then one of the warriors shouted.

“The author is Peng Hanbin, the third son of the Habuk Peng family!”

The warrior leading his horse approached with brisk strides.

“Everyone, surround the author.”

Hanbin could tell that they were targeting him. Hanbin shouted.

“Why are you looking for my lord? I am Imoo-myeong, the bodyguard of the Duke of Sa.”

At those words, the Baekgeomdae warriors tilted their heads and looked at Lee Mu-myeong, who was being supported by Han Bin.

Someone shouted.

“The author is right. The one who lost his mind is the Four Great Princes, Peng Hanbin.”

At those words, Hanbin smiled invisibly.

Actually, I felt a little sorry for Imoo-myeong.

At the same time, I felt grateful.

In a way, the current situation was Imoo-myeong’s first mission as a shadow warrior.

Of course, it was only Hanbin’s idea.

The siege is closing in.

Hanbin shouted.

“First, let’s secure the assassin inside. My lord, I, and the warriors inside have all been attacked by the assassin.”

“Our warriors are organizing the inside, so hand over the four princes.”

The warrior who came right up to Hanbin’s nose aimed his sword.

“phew.”

Hanbin sighed and handed over Lee Mu-myeong, who they mistook as him.

The warrior who received the title tilted his head and asked.

“What did you say your name was?”

“In the martial arts world, it is called the ‘Jeongseokgeom’.”

“hmm.”

The warrior swallowed his breath and aimed his sword again.

“If he’s the ultimate swordsman, he’s not the type to easily defeat the Four Princes. Catch him too!”

At the words of the warrior ahead, the remaining warriors surrounded Hanbin.

Sreung!

Hanbin also pulled out Wol-ah.

It was the prelude to the hundred-on-one duel that later shook up the Gangbuk martial arts world.

visor!

visor!

Hanbin blocked the sword, and Wol-ah blocked the sword of Baekgeomdae.

If I continued to avoid it, I had no chance of winning.

Swish.

Hanbin’s sword dug into Baekgeomdae’s weak spot during his swordsmanship.

Papak!

Blood splattered in the moonlit courtyard for a moment.

Hanbin’s attack showed the basics of fighting.

What is an effective way to subdue an enemy in a one-on-many fight?

The best way is to subdue the leader.

So then, what if the leader loses his mind like this?

It is like attacking the weak and putting a burden on them.

“Put the youngest behind and reinforce the examination!”

Another warrior was dropped in to protect the injured.

Swish!

The number of warriors reduced by one swing of Hanbin’s sword was two.

The Baekgeomdae warriors clicked their tongues at the sight of Hanbin slipping away like a loach.

This was not strong, but weak.

Hanbin’s attacks, which dug into my weaknesses to the point of being annoying, were more annoying than scary.

Hanbin also became increasingly anxious. This was because he only had five of the Yongrin Sword Technique’s powers left.

At that moment, Hanbin’s eyes widened.

Some of the Baekgeomdae warriors were shown to have dots indicating their fate.

Although it was a life-or-death situation, I couldn’t miss the opportunity to obtain the seal.

Hanbin’s sword extended towards Baekgeomdae Musa, no, towards Gugyeol.

Whoosh!

[Check the seal with the dragon’s eyes.]

[You have obtained the basic version of the Yongrin Sword Technique.]

[Basic]

[Speed, speed, speed, speed, speed … … ]

[Body, body, body, body, body, body]

[Power, Power, Power, Power, Power, Power]

[merit, merit, merit, merit, merit… … ]

[Back. Back, Back]

… …

Now there are three blessings.

It felt like the bleeding from the wounds from the current battle had stopped.

When Hanbin, who had been defensive, suddenly became aggressive, the Baekgeomdae warriors were also confused.

Then the leader of the warriors shouted.

“Unleash the Thousand-Bend Sword.”

At the same time, the warriors’ movements changed.

Sasa sak!

This is the highest level of examination of Baekgeomdae.

One sword contains ten changes. That is, a hundred swords represent a thousand changes.

Their swords changed from being as gorgeous as flowers to being as fierce as wolves.

This involved not only a change in movement, but also a change in speed.

Hanbin had no intention of winning this fight.

Fight a hundred men and win?

That would be a thing of the distant future.

It was when their swords were surrounding Hanbin layer by layer.

Suddenly a sharp scream was heard from somewhere.

“Baekgeomdae, stop moving!”

At that shout, the Baekgeomdae’s swords that were closing in on Hanbin stopped.

Then the Baekgeomdae split into two.

A man in white robes walked slowly through the gaps.

Judging from the shape of his uniform, he was clearly a member of the Mu clan.

Hanbin tilted his head as the man approached.

Because the face looked familiar.

“ah!”

Hanbin let out a gasp. This was because he realized the man’s identity. Hanbin’s face gradually darkened.

Because the man walking towards her right now was none other than Musoui.

Hanbin paid attention to his footsteps.

Wushu’s steps were refined. It was clear that Wushu had risen to a higher level.

Thud thud.

The Musowi who came in front of Hanbin suddenly dove deep into the water.

Hanbin narrowed his eyes at the unexpected action.

Musowi spoke with a serious expression, not caring about Hanbin’s expression.

“Thank you, Eun-gong.”

“… … .”

Hanbin racked his brain at the sudden words. However, finding the right answer was not important right now.

Hanbin said as if he had made up his mind.

“You have to listen to the story little by little and start by cleaning up the mess inside.”

Hanbin and Musowi went inside.

A boy was found with his wrists cut off while being subdued by a demon.

The Musoyul party was already seated on chairs by the warriors who entered first.

Hanbin approached the boy.

Then he took out the dagger on his ankle and held it up to the boy’s face.

The surprised Musowi asked.

“Eun-gong, what on earth are you doing… … .”

Musowi was speechless. When Hanbin peeled off the boy’s face with a dagger, another face appeared in its place.

Anyone who looked at him would have thought he was at least in his forties.

The mouths of the Musowi and Baekgeomdae members, who had caught a glimpse of the situation, opened wide.

* * *

The next morning.

The place where Hanbin woke up was the Mu clan’s house.

Since it involved the precious jewel of the Mu clan, Mu So-yul, they couldn’t just let Han Bin and Lee Mu-myeong go.

Instead, Hanbin woke up in a room more splendid than Habukpangga’s residence.

The maid heard Hanbin’s rustling sound and came in cautiously.

“Your Majesty, I have prepared the clothes for you here. And I will guide you to the main hall. The master of the house has instructed you to come in if you cough.”

“Okay, I got it. Where is my group?”

It was Lee Mu-myeong who was talking.

The maid answered.

“He’s still sleeping. Our doctor said he’s been prescribed some medication, so he’ll be up by lunchtime.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Hanbin didn’t ask any more questions and just put on the clothes he had prepared.

Hanbin smiled leisurely after getting dressed. This was because the Musi Swordsman had prepared clothes that were identical to the red uniform he had worn before.

It must have taken an entire night of sewing to prepare such an identical outfit.

This was evidence of the favor they felt for Hanbin.

Hanbin, fully dressed, sat across from Musuhui of the Musi Sword Family in the Gajujeon Hall.

“I’m sorry for preparing tea before meal.”

“it’s okay.”

Hanbin lifted the teacup and savored the scent of the tea.

As soon as he moistened his lips with tea, Gaju Musuhui got to the point.

“The ones you caught yesterday were the assassins of Salgui Valley. They bit the poison and committed suicide, but I found their mark on their backs.”

“okay.”

Hanbin answered absentmindedly.
