Surviving as a Cripple in Murim - Surviving as a Cripple in Murim chapter 64

64 – Death Priest (1)

Soso’s room located in the inn of the drug store in Jeseok-hyeon.

“Huh… heh… Whoa… Soso Eon… Brother….”

“Yes- yes- Soso oppa. ‘Cause it’s okay now Cry.”

There, Seol Wol-hwa, the high-nosed princess of the North Sea Ice Palace, was sobbing in the arms of her cousin, So-so, who had just returned to the inn after hearing the commotion.

“Sniff… I, Bingryong’s younger brother, Seolbong, Seowolhwa… This disgrace….”

In that state, Wol-hwa hugged So-so’s slender waist, buried her face half in her chest, and glared at Man-cheon, the one who made him like this….

Unfortunately, the words did not continue to the end.

“Huh- If you introduce yourself one more time in front of the principal seat, whether it’s a dragon or a bon, I’ll make you yongbongtang next time.”

Jeon Jin’s Secret Secret I was overwhelmed by the eyes of Sima Man-cheon, the ruler who overthrew even the sky where self-esteem had risen to the level of a loser at the end of the century by awakening the ideal ice-breaker.

“Hee, hee… Soso Eon… Brother….”

“Yes- yes- Soso oppa. It’s okay, it’s okay.”

With overwhelming ambition, Wolhwa trembled like a baby seal meeting its natural enemy, a killer whale, and dug into Soso’s arms.

“Gongja Sima, I know you’re joking, but please refrain from using strong words. Wol-hwa is a tender child who is more timid than she looks.”

You can feel the seniority in Soso’s hand gently stroking the white hair of Wolhwa, who flinches and flinches.

Maybe that’s why? Wolhwa, whose mentality has been restored to some extent by the tolerance of older people, once again poked out his head halfway and shouted proudly at me.

“Huh… I! Just snowflakes! I will never forget this humiliation!!”

“It’s Monday… Isn’t this a fight that started when you first insulted a ‘Friend’ Of Sima Gongja?”

A fight at an inn that started over a backroom.

To start with the conclusion, it was fortunate that no one was seriously injured, and thanks to Soso who intervened in the middle, it ended well~ well~.

To be precise, the warriors of the North Sea Ice Palace who were trying to attack me were overpowered by Soso with the Emperor’s Sword, and the fight was forcibly ended.

“Everybody stop fighting. I will not allow any more acts of force.”

Soso, who appeared with cool eyes that seemed to freeze even the moonlight, was indeed the emperor who ruled over everything.

Anyway, thanks to you, one of the two big problems I have to solve now, the confrontation with the guards of the North Sea Ice Palace, has been safely resolved.

… One problem remains.

It was the repair fee for the inn wall that I shattered with an ice-breaker.

‘… The hole was really big.’

As I tried to face reality, I let out a sigh.

“… Yes? Did you get paid for repairs?”

At my bewildered question, the innkeeper smiled happily and nodded his head.

“Yes, an acquaintance of the customer paid for everything. Oh, is there anything else you need? Just say it. We will prepare everything.”

The gentle attitude of the owner of the inn is such that you can never imagine that the business building has been destroyed.

That’s right, a man who introduced himself as an acquaintance of thousands of people.

As one of the three enemies of Murim, he received a large amount of money for repairs from Nameless, who was related to Samabu and the priest of death penalty.

‘Are you saying that I should use that money to get over my inn’s mischief!!’

– To say that, the amount was enough to build a new inn even after fixing the wall, so I had no choice but to pass it.

Rather, it makes me want to break down one or two more walls.

… However, unlike the owner of the inn, who was happy with his thick pockets, Man-cheon was confused by the existence of an unknown acquaintance who suddenly appeared and paid for the repairs.

“Where is the person who paid for the repairs over there… ?”

“He said something was urgent and he paid only for repairs and left.”

You just paid the money and left without saying anything? It’s such a good story. Suspicious

“Then what is your name? What does it look like?”

“That… In fact, he only revealed that he was an acquaintance, so I didn’t hear his name. He was a vaguely lively man with no special features, except for the dark ring around his eyes.”

A man with no special features except for the dark circles under his eyes… I don’t know. He doesn’t have anyone coming to mind.

“Ah, come to think of it… You asked me to tell you this.”

It could have been a clue to guess the identity, so I kept my mouth shut and waited for the next words of the owner of the inn.

“When I use the Cheongeunchu (千斤錘), I say that I put too much energy into it, so I relax a little.”

From noble mtl dot com

“… Yes?”

Cheongeunchu (千斤錘) is a martial art that increases the weight of the body by applying internal energy. As the weight of the body increases, it is natural to give a lot of strength. But what do you mean when you say you lose your strength?

No, more suddenly than that, military training?

Teaching about martial arts is always welcome, but before that, it would be nice if you could reveal your name and introduce yourself.

… I wondered if my father had hired martial arts masters to follow me behind my back, but I couldn’t find an answer because it was only speculation.

I really don’t understand English.

I sighed and stepped over the hole through which the cool breeze blew in, staring at the wall that had been completely shattered in silence.

… Still, I was really grateful that they paid for the repairs.

***

Seven years ago, the rising sun and the most beautiful moon existed in Moorim.

Baro- The young head of the Namgung family, the princess of the Namgungseon and the North Sea Ice Palace, and the snowy moon and Soso’s parents he loved and respected the most in the world.

Namgoongseon made time to play with her cute daughter despite her busyness with her housekeeper, and Seol Wolha also happily talked about Soso’s favorite knights and heroic tales every evening.

That’s why Soso didn’t care at all even if others whispered behind her back that she was the seed of her treachery, and even if she wore men’s clothes instead of the cute clothes she wanted to wear.

I had no doubt that when I opened my eyes in the morning, my happy daily life with my loving parents by my side would continue like the morning sun rising.

… However, Soso’s happiness was torn apart by a monster that appeared one day.

Murim Samjeok (武林三賊) – Three exploits who play with the law and order of Murim and threaten them.

Palcheok Nogoe (八尺老怪), Pleasant Demon (快刀亂麻), Invincible (無籍無敵).

I don’t know who is the strongest among the three enemies of Murim. However, if you were to choose the most dangerous one, of course they were invincible.

Unlike the Eight Cheok Nogoe, which only steals martial arts without killing people, and the Pleasant Thief, which only kills Murim people who quarrel with it, the invincible was a killer.

He will kill anyone if he pays a reasonable price.

It is a word used by killers, but invincibility is different. Really kill anyone

Even if it’s the imperial family, the head of the old school, or the head of the family, they will kill you as long as you pay the price.

A monster over ten feet tall, covered in black fur, and breathing fire from its eyes and mouth.

… It’s bullsh*t.

Invincible is a man with a vague impression with an ordinary physique that can be found everywhere. If there is a characteristic, it is that the black rings (dark circles) are deeply engraved around the eyes.

The man came suddenly like a natural disaster, like death.

“I… I’m sorry for the suddenness, but Crown Prince Namgung needs to lure the family head, so I’ll kidnap him.”

Soso, who turned 12 this year, couldn’t say anything to the killer who reached out to him in front of the corpses of the bodyguards whose upper body was blown off and turned into minced meat.

“… Dad is the strongest Moorim. You will never lose to someone like that He will surely rescue me.”

It wasn’t until a long time after he was kidnapped that Soso didn’t tie himself up and said, swallowing tears, to the killer who just left him alone next to him.

However, despite the courageous cry, Salsu only nodded his head and showed a weak smile.

“… I hope so. Killing my parents in front of my kids is kind of like that, too.”

Namgoongseon and Seolwolha came to the place of abduction to save Soso, refusing to dissuade them from the fact that their beloved child was kidnapped.

A winter evening with a beautiful moon rising.

The first thing that Soso saw was the scene where the invincible arm swayed like a gigantic demon dragon and smashed the king’s sword to pieces.

The second thing he saw was his mother’s abdomen being pierced by a red fist stained with blood as she intervened to protect his father.

… Soso couldn’t do anything.

She looked around with blank eyes, but like the story her mother used to read to her before going to bed, a hero appeared, defeated the villain, and saved Soso and her parents.

Even when he cut off his father’s head as a trophy, Soso could do nothing.

Even though I showed my back very calmly. He couldn’t do anything

“I… It would be painful to wait while looking at my parents’ dead bodies, but Namgung’s warriors will soon flock to this place. Please wait here.”

Invincible and invincible finished with those words and slowly drifted away while being hit by the snow that started to scatter little by little.

Soso still couldn’t do anything.

She’s like that. She was a worthless bastard who wanted to kill herself because she was weak and unhelpful.

Soso slowly opened his eyes and got up from the bed.

While she was putting Wol-hwa, who was exhausted from crying, on the bed to sleep, she seemed to have fallen asleep as well.

“Haa… ha….”

Chills linger from the inside of her body, probably because of the nightmare she had in a long time.

Her breathing is difficult.

As a child, when she woke up from a nightmare, her mother or her father would gently hug her and pat her back.

… However, there were no parents to pat him on the back.

It is unknown whether it was another faction within Crown Prince Namgung or the imperial family that requested the assassination of Invincible.

Anyway, I died because of a child who should not have been born with a cursed fate.

I was murdered in vain.

“… ….”

So Soso unconsciously staggered out of the room looking for Mancheon.

As I stood on the railing on the second floor, I saw the back of Mancheon standing on the first floor of the inn.

Unlike a cowardly coward like yourself….

No matter who the opponent is or how many they fight against without running away, instilling a sense of security in the viewer-

It was the back of a real hero.
