Episode 1257. So don’t worry about me being left alone

Namgoongyeon, who was reaching out to Yeonjeokha, who was crying with her head down, stopped.

When we lived together, he was like a younger brother, but now it is no exaggeration to say that he is like a child.

I came here with the hope of spending my last days with him, but when I saw him in his younger years, I felt sorry for him.

Even though Yeon Jeok-ha is her husband who promised to live together for 100 years, I don’t know if it is right to treat him as before, as he is younger than my daughter.

She watched closely the life and death of people around her at Seokgyeongjang.

Sim Tong and Dang Un-mang died from old age, Wol-ah and Geum-ah got married and became independent, and Pung Yeon-cho’s son, who belatedly entered Seokgyeongjang, eventually became the general.

The body has stopped aging – because it has gone through spiritual energy – but the mind is different. She thought of herself as an old woman past her 60th birthday.

In the end, she gently retracted the hand she was about to extend.

Yeon Jeok-ha, who had been silently shedding tears, suddenly raised his head.

“What about Old Man Shim and Old Man Tang?”

“Seven years after you left, both of you passed away from old age. “Old Man Shim died, and the next day, Old Man Tang.”

“If you live today and tomorrow, you live seven more years.”

“Still, I’m glad he passed away after seeing Wol-ah and Geum-ah get married.”

“Are Wol-Ah and Geum-Ah doing well?”

“then. Every holiday, I brought my family to say hello. “Wol-ah gave birth to a son, and Geum-ah gave birth to a daughter.”

“What happened to my other sworn brothers?”

“The son of Fung Daehyeop joined Seokgyeongjang and later became the general manager, and Fung Daehyeop and Tak Daehyeop took over the guesthouse owned by Seokgyeongjang in Hebi. “I was jealous of you and old man Shim running a restaurant.”

“Why don’t you just give it to me?”

“I tried to do that too, but they stubbornly refused, so I gave it to them at half price.”

“What about Chaeyeon and Sobaek?”

“After retiring from the top, I am living well in old age with the money I saved.”

“thank god. “What about the other brothers at Obongsanchae?”

“Seventeen years after you left, there was a large-scale suppression of bandits in Henan Province. Obongsanchae was one of the targets, but while fighting with the punitive army, it was attacked by fire and all… … .”

“… … “Is there no one left alive?”

“I heard that the wind was so strong that even the punitive forces suffered damage.”

“… … .”

I was heartbroken to hear the news of the death of my brothers-in-law who were guarding the living quarters of Yeonjeok.

It was too great a price to pay for not being able to give up his life as a bandit.

For bandits, fighting against punitive forces was a daily routine, but the death of their sworn brothers was confusing.

“I guess the subjugation army wasn’t afraid of Wu Feng and Ten Geul?”

“Because seventeen years have passed. “I don’t even know your name, so how can you possibly know what the Five Bons and Ten Girls are?”

“ha! “Time is scary.”

I shook my head in excitement at the impermanence of passing years.

To be forgotten after only 17 years.

The past days of fierce fighting against the famous and demonic religions are in vain.

Yeon Jeok-ha, who had been reminiscing about the past in a daze, asked as if he remembered it too late.

“really! You said Wol-ah and Geum-ah got married, right? What about Jian? Ji-an must have passed the marriage age as well, but has she gotten married?”

“Jian lost her husband to a stroke two years after she got married… … “I returned to Seokgyeongjang.”

“What about the child? “Do we have grandchildren?”

“no.”

Namgoongyeon shook his head.

In fact, the reason Jian returned to Seokgyeongjang was because he could not leave behind any descendants.

I sighed without making a sound.

Even the sky is indifferent.

What good will it do if you do something nice to yourself, who is running around here and there in order to save the world?

I don’t know why they are so persistent in tormenting Ji-an, who is having a hard time.

‘Fuck! You can’t do this to my family.’

Namgung-yeon continued to speak to Yeon Jeok-ha, who was gritting his teeth and letting go of his anger.

“But Jian said it was good to come home. She said that if she had had children, she would have had to live with her in-laws for the rest of her life, but she is glad that she does not have them. Part of me said it was to comfort me, but on the other hand, I don’t think it was entirely wrong. “I was also glad that Jian was by her side.”

Nam Gung-yeon smiled faintly.

After getting married, I became friends with my daughter.

It was even more so because the two were so similar that they could be considered sisters just by appearance.

“What kind of person was your son-in-law?”

“Do you remember Chaoyang Sangbang in Hefei?”

“yes.”

“My name is Jo Hyeon-deok. I am the third son of Jo Yang Sangbang and Jo Ark. He was a scholar who studied writing with an interest in academics. He followed Ji-an around for three years after seeing her at the market from afar. He is a pure and good person, but his body is a bit weak… … .”

Namgung-yeon finished his sentence with a sad look on his face.

This is because Jo Hyeon-deok was a very good person, except for his weak body.

“Still, I’m glad you were a good person. “Jian wouldn’t have had to suffer while he was still alive.”

“okay. How have you been so far? “Did you find Cheonjama and Jinsa?”

“Yes, Cheonjama was found and dealt with.”

Yeon Jeok-ha told a story about the sun god.

“… … Wizards from another world say that if the dark ether invades the brain, the ego can be divided. “It seemed to me that Cheonjama’s personality was hidden within the body of the sun god.”

“That could be possible.”

“That’s why I’m worried.”

Yeonjeokha glanced at Count Fabian and Larva Omar standing on one side.

“why?”

“Actually, when I was in the North… … .”

He confessed what happened in the process of becoming a demon lord.

“After that, should I say that when I get angry, the top starts spinning? Anyway, I had to kill them all to get rid of my anger. It is said that at that time, the eyes also turn red like a demon. “Even if they don’t say anything, they are probably worried about that too.”

“Even when you were at Gangho, you did whatever you felt like.”

Namgung-yeon pretended that it was no big deal.

Considering that the sun god’s ego was torn apart by the dark ether, it was actually a serious matter.

However, she was wise and focused on allaying Yeon Jeok-ha’s anxiety.

This is because nothing consumes more mental energy than doubt and anxiety.

“It’s a little different than back then. When I was in Gangho, if I killed someone, my heart felt heavy all day, but now I don’t feel anything. “They say it’s okay because he’s a bad guy who deserves to die.”

“Maybe it’s because you’re not from this world. If you keep a psychological distance from it, the shock can be less. “Wasn’t it similar when you were in Guju?”

Yeon Jeok-ha, who was thinking deeply, said with an ambiguous expression.

“I do not know. Because I can’t remember the feelings at that time… … .”

“are you okay. It’ll turn out okay. “God doesn’t give you anything you can’t handle.”

“I won’t go crazy like the sun god, right?”

“No problem. you are a lover Look back at what you’ve done so far. No matter how strong the dark ether is, it can’t do anything to you.”

“Do you trust me?”

“of course.”

Only then did Yeon Jeok-ha’s frozen expression relax.

To him who believed in Namgung-yeon more than himself, her words were more than comfort.

“But how should I introduce you to those people? Shastra Parakti? Or my wife?”

“Before that, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“You must know how I came to this world.”

“Didn’t you come here because you asked the wise woman of Gucheon?”

“Do you remember what Gucheonhyeonnyeo said about looking like me?”

“yes.”

“It may sound strange, but maybe I am the reincarnation of the wise woman of the nine heavens. No, maybe I, in another world, attained enlightenment and became a wise woman of nine heavens. The important thing is that I am a wise woman of nine heavens. Do you understand what I mean?”

Contrary to Namgung-yeon’s worries, Yeon-jeok-ha accepted it obediently.

Absolute trust in her also played a role, but honestly, looking at Gucheon Hyeonnyeo and Namgung Yeon, who looked strangely similar, there was no room for doubt.

“And the being that the wise woman of the nine heavens attained through enlightenment is Shastra Parakti. So, I, the Nine Heavenly Sages, and Shastra Parakti are essentially the same. Do you understand?”

“You are Shastra Parakti?”

“Sometimes it’s true, sometimes it’s not. If you dig into the root, it’s the same, but now I’m Seok Kyeong-jang’s Namgung-yeon. Anyway, the reason I was able to come to this world is because I, the Nine Heavenly Sage, and Shastra Parakti are essentially the same. There was a being in the old memories of Shastra Parakti. That’s why I was able to incarnate in this world.”

“Then what do you say to those people?”

“It is called Shastra Parakti. “I have seen the image of Shastra Parakti incarnate, so I will not believe it even if it is not said.”

“Then what about me? “If you become Shastra Parakti, you won’t be able to be with me, right?”

“are you okay. It seems that the gods of this world happen to fall in love with humans. “They won’t think it’s strange if we go together.”

“ah! is it so? “Then it’ll be okay.”

Yeon Jeok-ha, who was smiling brightly, tilted his head for some reason.

“however… … “How long?”

“huh?”

“If I deal with Geumsa, I will go back to being a strongman. But what about you? What will happen to you when that time comes? “You’re not planning on being left alone in this world without me, right?”

Yeon Jeok-ha looked at Nangong-yeon with a worried face.

This is because he could neither take her with him nor leave her behind when he returned.

Namgung-yeon was a little embarrassed when Yeon Jeok-ha asked that question from the beginning.

“… … .”

When Namgung-yeon hesitated, he brainstormed hard to find a solution.

“Don’t you think it would be okay to just live here with your sister?”

“If you want me and Jian’s fate to be like it is now, that’s okay. “If you don’t go back, Jian and I will live waiting for you, who never comes back.”

“When I go back, what about you? Are you telling me to leave you here alone? Then I will live the rest of my life suffering from the pain of abandoning my sister. “Do you want me to live like that?”

Nam Gung-yeon sighed lightly.

He felt like if he didn’t tell him the whole truth, he and his life would be quite twisted.

“Jeokhaya.”

“No matter what you say, it’s the same. “I never leave you alone.”

“It won’t be long before I forget who I was and start living as a god.”

“What do you mean?”

“The person I am now is just a part of the distant past that Shastra Parakti has forgotten. Now I am pushing Shastra Parakti with my own will… … . Soon we will return to Shastra Parakti.”

“W-what do you mean? “You are returning to Shastra Parakti?”

“I am temporarily borrowing the time of the incarnated Shastra Parakti. That was the promise between me, the Nine Heavenly Sage, and Shastra Parakti.”

“You are saying that you borrowed the incarnated body of Shastra Parakti for a short time?”

“that’s right. And it won’t be that long. One year at most? Afterwards, I will melt into the memories of Shastra Parakti.”

“Your sister is disappearing from the world?”

“I thought a year with you was more valuable than decades spent alone.”

“I, I, don’t know what you’re talking about. Even if you become Shastra Parakti, you will remember me. “They said it was the past.”

“For Shastra Parakti, you will be one of countless relationships that have passed by. Since I am a god who lives forever, my time with you will only be a moment. Do you want to live as an apostle next to Shastra Parakti?”

Yeonjeokha did not reply.

However, Namgoongyeon would have known what his answer was.

“So don’t worry about me being left alone.”
