Episode 73

One

Kim Cheol-jin cried for a long time.

Kim Chul-woo stood blankly and stared into the air. A wooden doll can only call the dead, but cannot restore lost memories.

Kim Chul-woo seemed to have forgotten many things. It seemed that he was at the stage of forgetting even his own face and body.

empty eyes. It had no ears and nose, and was small enough to come to Siwoo’s chest, and his hands and feet were stubby.

The overall color of the body was also grayish and cloudy.

However, Cheoljin Kim apologized to him while crying like a child. I’m sorry for being a bad father. I was sorry that I hit you then, that I was sorry that I couldn’t hug you. He repeatedly said he was sorry.

The change happened then.

“ah… Buzz?”

Kim Chul-woo, who had been staring at the empty space like a wooden stone, opened his mouth. Although he was clumsy, he pronounced ‘Father’ clearly.

Just as Siwoo did to Cheoljin, Cheoljin’s apology made a difference.

In fact, he has been dead for more than 20 years, and he has walked the path of oblivion for that amount of time, and he has lingering lingering feelings that he has not forgotten even after walking that distant time.

That regret was his father.

Kim Chul-jin made a strange expression, neither laughing nor crying, nor delighted nor surprised. It’s hard to explain, but the tears flowed.

He put his hand to his face with a trembling hand.

The dead and the living cannot touch each other, but… … I was able to reach it, perhaps because it had changed into an indefinite form.

Cheoljin hugged Cheolwoo. Cheol-woo embraced Cheol-jin with his blunt hands.

“sorry… . Sorry… .”

“ah… Buzz.”

A skinny man and a bodyless dead kneel and embrace each other. The long-standing conflict between the two took place in the gray world of the dead, not in the real world.

It was then.

Kim Cheol-woo’s mutated body was crushed. Kim Chul-jin made a uh-uh-huh and hugged him tighter.

“Oh, no. Now… I just met you… .”

His mutated body shattered, revealing his true form. Eventually, all gray bodies disappeared and Kim Cheol-woo’s true face was revealed.

The memory that Cheoljin Kim filled even filled the empty space in other memories. It made me remember myself.

The appearance of the underworld is modeled after the appearance of the most desired time in the previous life. The standard of ‘Yeom(念)’ is different for each person. It could have been the heyday of your life, or it could have been the most regrettable time.

Kim Chul-woo was a child who looked about 12 years old. No one knows what his salt is. But, maybe it was the happiest time. Siu thought so.

“father. I hated you a lot.”

“Cheolwoo… .”

“I forgave everything. At that time, even my father was desperate.”

The boatman stopped the boat. Two boatmen waited for him on both sides of the river of reincarnation and the river of annihilation.

“I think I have to go now. I’ve been here too long.”

“Keuheuk, uuhueug.”

“Thank you. I loved you. now… … Live comfortably.”

The place he headed toward the river Cheolwoo, who left those words, was the river of reincarnation.

Cheol-jin couldn’t catch Cheol-woo, who was getting farther away. I was just staring at him and seeing him off.

“In the next life… … if we meet again At that time, I will be born as my father’s father.”

“Cheolwoo.”

the ship is leaving

“see you next time. father.”

He waved his hand, saying goodbye, not goodbye.

“See you next… . son.”

Cheoljin had no choice but to say that.

Cheoljin looked at the river where Cheolwoo left for a long time.

Siu stood beside him and said.

“Get up now. Your son is no longer here. Even your son won’t want the Sword Master here any longer.”

After a moment of silence, Cheoljin stood up and faced Siwoo.

And when he got down on his knees, he lowered his head. He raised his hand up to his head with his palm facing the sky.

Originally, there should have been a sword on both palms, but even without a sword, Cheoljin could understand what he was trying to say.

“The first head of the Five Directions and the Head of the Cheonilmun Gate, Cheoljin Kim. I will lay down all those names and offer my sword to you as a swordsman.”

To a swordsman, a sword means everything. To offer one’s sword means to give one’s all.

Also, the sword is just swinging. Regardless of the target, it moves according to the will of the person who picked up the sword. It also means that whatever your will, you will become a sword and follow your orders.

“You don’t have to.”

Siu politely declined his offer. It’s true that he needs an ally, but the kindness close to his loyalty was uncomfortable for him as well.

“At first, it is too burdensome.”

“How can you say that? You made my wish come true. If it had not been for your help, that wish would have remained just a secret wish.”

“I am not saying that I will not accept anything in return. Even if I look like this, I’m a very calculating person, so I’m definitely a person who gets what I get.”

“If so… .”

“Please help me someday when I need it.”

“That alone is not enough.”

“Oh, and don’t look for me. No, even if I say this, I think you’ll try to find it, but if you do find me, don’t come.”

“… … yes. All right.”

Cheoljin felt that Siwoo’s words were strangely light, but he couldn’t show it in front of his benefactor.

“Then, go quickly.”

“I will be waiting for you to come.”

“Yes, please go quickly.”

The way Kim Cheol-jin returned was really simple. As soon as I broke the jewel I took out of my bosom, it disappeared in an instant.

In any case, this will not cause Cheonilmun to collapse. The missing sword master has returned… … . The power of the human side has risen greatly.

“Now I have to go too.”

Siu turned around. Since the purpose was to send Kim Cheol-jin back, there is no reason for him to be in the underworld anymore now that he has returned.

Although there is a hidden quest, it was only a necessary means to enter the underworld. If I had time, I would at least try it, but the long candle was in contact with the floor before I knew it.

The gates of life should be open by now. Even if the candle goes out, the door to life won’t close, but it will speed up the loss of memories.

Even if it is a spiritual body, the world of the dead is colored by that world. This second is the standard. The countdown to the death of the spirit body.

Besides, the more retrograde the path of oblivion is, the faster you lose your memories… . Better to hurry before the candle goes out.

“let’s go. Siwoo Lee. let’s go.”

He walked backwards, repeating his name.

In the middle, I saw arrows and letters that were marked on the way.

‘➔ Just go, damn it. Don’t think!➔’

Siwoo moved straight along the arrow.

At first, I laughed at the message, which contained the will to go back, but from a certain point on, I just followed the arrow.

I just walked without thinking.

However, if you are walking. Looking at the dead who are going in the opposite direction to her, questions naturally arose.

“Why am I going backwards?”

As he tilted his head, an arrow came out, but his nod became more frequent and eventually stopped.

And suddenly, it seemed that only he was going backwards, so he turned around and stopped.

“Where is this?”

Only thick gray smoke was rising from the blackened wick.

“What is this again?”

I looked alternately at the wall wood and the candlestick that Siu was holding.

Chaeng-Gran-

He threw the wall wood and the candlestick on the floor.

“Where is this?”

And he moved his steps following the dead.

tried to move

His body stiffened. Then he grabbed his head and knelt down.

“Heuk.”

The moaning of pain was cut short in an instant. He shook his head and stood up from his seat.

he looked back

WoW, who had disappeared before anyone knew it, was there.

Wow was on his knees and prostrate.

Siwoo, who was looking down at Wow, gestured lightly.

The earth rose and turned into the shape of a throne.

Siwoo sat down and crossed his legs.

His eyes subtly changed.

Soon after, he wore Siwoo’s shell and opened his mouth.

“It’s been a while.”

WoW was still prostrate.

“It’s been 20 years since I’ve been in this child’s body.”

Siu, no. Wearing Siu’s mask, it looked down at Wow and said. The dead who were moving their steps could not pass in front of him and piled up one after another.

However, he twisted his face toward WoW without even paying attention to the dead.

At first glance, the expression seemed angry, but when I heard it, I could tell that it was close to dissatisfaction.

“Guy Guy. Was it a request to call out this body at will and ask it to protect the son of a b*tch? In exchange for a precious life, it’s only to save a lump of blood. Humans can never understand.”

Even at his reprimand, Wow did not budge. He clicked his tongue at that immovable posture.

He frowned as if he didn’t like it.

“And your son is a coward. Do you know that it is not your son who is using this body right now?”

Wow flinched, but did not raise his head.

His eyes widened.

“Hey, do you mean you knew? Wasn’t it nice though?”

Wow nodded. Still didn’t raise his head.

“how. Shall I call my son? Not the one occupying your son’s body right now, but your real son.”

Only then did Wow slowly raise his head.

Wow looked up at him and shook his head slowly. Seeing that, he clicked his tongue again.

“Tsk tsk, there’s no difference between a bastard and a mother being cowards.”

Wow, bowing his head again as if he was sorry.

“That’s no fun. I have to go now.”

It was time for him to rise from his throne and step past the wow. Wow caught him by the ankles.

“Do you have anything to say?”

Wow nodded and started writing on the floor.

-Sorry. love you.

-sorry. thank you

half words and respect. This is a message to both of them. It was not written who the two men were, but he seemed to understand exactly what was being said to him.

“joy. What’s the use of saying thank you now?”

He responded nonchalantly and moved on. Wow looked at his back like that. How far did he walk like that? He said without looking back.

“Your son must have seen the writing you wrote on the floor.”

Wow’s head fell down little by little.

“So, you too, follow that ugly bastard. Aren’t they waiting for you over there?”

He raised his arm and pointed to the river of reincarnation.

Wow turned his head in that direction. A ferryboat was motionless in the far distance beyond the swaying river of reincarnation.

On the left side of the ferry, a boatman could be seen, and on the right side, the figure of a boy. The boy was waving to Wow. Wow flinched, but in the end couldn’t shake his hand.

“Go. That ugly bastard would have forgiven you long ago. It seems like he didn’t even think that he died because of you in the first place.”

Wow shuddered and shook his head. It looked like he was crying, but he still didn’t look back.

“From one to ten, I don’t like anything, I’m an ugly guy, but I think he thinks of you very well.”

Shaaa-

The rivers roar and make noise. When he heard it, he suddenly spat it out.

“It was nice to meet you after a long time. daughter.”

After saying that, he moved on.

He walked the path of oblivion.

Retrograde speeds up the speed of oblivion, but that didn’t seem to work for him.

The dead moved past him and he continued to advance.

Every once in a while ‘➔ just go, f*ck. Don’t think about it!

“This guy is really stupid too.”

Then ‘➔ Just go, f*ck. Don’t think!➔’ and found another article.

“This… … .”

When Wow first met Siwoo Lee. It was scribbled on the floor to tell the title of wealth.

The text that Wow read his name was written in English.

WOW.

It was less wow looking at Lee Si-woo. He read it as ‘wow’, but in fact, you had to read it from the wow position to read it straight.

“Ah, a coward.”

The Demon King, who was going backwards on the path of oblivion, was able to see it straight.

MOM.

“I just want you to say that you are the mother.”

It was then.

When the air split, ‘darkness’ came out. The darkness instantly engulfed the area and filled the surroundings with darkness.

Soon, two blue wisps of fire appeared in front of him.

he said with a smile.

“Yeah, it’s been a while for you too.”
