Part 15 Immediately, in this place

“for a moment…!”

Namgung Bukwi, the head of the Namgung family, asked Yeon Sohyeon.

“Archangel…! Are you really thinking of accepting your father’s request for a parley…?!”

“Isn’t that okay?”

When Yeon So-hyeon looked at Namgung Buk-wi as if asking something obvious, he suddenly felt breathless.

“… … .”

When he opened his mouth with an expression that seemed like he didn’t know what to say first, Yeon So-hyeon spoke to the Sword King Namgung-je.

“Let’s go.”

“Let’s do that.”

“Wait, wait, wait…! First and foremost…!”

Gaju Namgung Bukwi threw his whole body to block their path.

“The consequences of this fight will have a tremendous impact on both of your reputations…! The one who loses will have to bear that burden forever…!”

That was what was said to Yeon So-hyeon though.

At the same time, it was also an appeal to his father, King Namgung Je.

“Are you two really…! Are you really, mentally prepared to accept the consequences…?!”

“what….”

King Namgung Je shrugged his shoulders and smiled as if nothing had happened.

“Even if this old man loses, wouldn’t you at least give him some leniency, saying that he lost because he was old?”

“father…!”

Namgung Bukwi, the head of the household, became serious at the ridiculous joke that was too absurd compared to the seriousness of the situation.

“If my father is defeated by the Archduke, then from then on, the other supreme beings will naturally avoid any fight or confrontation with the Archduke…!”

Although he may not have been the ‘perfect’ son that the King of Swords had hoped for, he was the head of the Namgung family.

And he knew full well how this would turn out.

“Then, Father will go down in history as the only supreme being defeated by the Archduke…!”

on the other side.

Yeonseonhyeon won against King Namgungje of the Sword and other supreme beings avoided the fight.

In the future, it will surely be called the best sword in the world.

“Despite everyone pointing fingers at you, you avoided a confrontation with the best swordsman in the world, Yeongeomun, and spent all that time sleeping on firewood and tasting gall, was it just for this kind of ending…?!”

Ugh, ugh…!

The shoulders of Namgung Bukwi, the head of the household who had been spouting out words without even breathing, shook.

Buzzing.

He’s nearby, no.

I knew that practically everyone in this stadium was looking this way.

Although.

Because of the air barrier, the conversation here was not spreading outside.

Already, all this attention alone made him feel like vomiting.

“Son… .”

As if it were a long one.

King Namgungje, who placed his hands on his son’s shoulders, met his gaze and opened his mouth.

“Haven’t you heard? It’s not ‘perfect’, it’s ‘completion.’”

King Namgungje of the Sword spoke with a gentle smile that I had never seen before.

“Are you going to stop this father from taking his first step towards perfection?”

“… … !”

Gaju Namgung Bukwi was speechless for a moment, then shook his head.

“Please think of our family…! Please think of the Namgung family, Father…!”

His eyes were twitching slightly.

He put his hand on his father’s hand, grabbed it tightly, and shouted under his breath.

“Really…! Do you really want our family to be remembered as the family that lost to the Sword Family…?!”

and.

Namgung Bukwi knew at that moment what his father would say.

This was because the eyes of my father, King Namgung Je, were so wide that it was impossible to measure their width, and so deep that it was impossible to fathom their depth.

“…from today.”

King Namgung Je of the Sword pulled his son’s shoulder, brought their foreheads together, met his gaze, and spoke to his son.

“Our Namgung Se-ga will also be completed. And the same goes for you, Gaju…!”

“… … !”

To his father, who calls himself Gaju at the end and speaks highly of him.

What more can I say?

With my father’s wrinkled forehead facing me.

And as he felt his father’s body tremble slightly through his forehead and hands, Namgung Bukwi tightly closed his eyes.

And then.

He opened his mouth.

“… Your Highness.”

“Please speak, head of the Namgung family.”

In contrast to his father, the Sword King.

Yeon So-hyeon’s voice was as normal as usual, without any tremor.

The voice was so annoying at that moment that Namgung Bukwi, who was speechless for a moment, barely managed to continue speaking.

“…Please let us hold the match in private.”

He lifted his forehead from his father and pleaded with Yeon So-hyeon.

“At least. At least, could you do that much?”

Yeon So-hyeon immediately shook her head.

“I’m sorry, but that’s not possible.”

“Why-?!”

“-Isn’t that impossible?”

The answer came from his father, the Sword King.

“No matter how much the Grand Duke wanted to conduct it in secret, deep within the sword family, who would want to miss this opportunity?”

“… … .”

That’s right.

It was just as Father Sword King said.

Even if only masters fight swords, people gather like clouds.

But what if it is the secret of the supreme beings?

The masters within the sword family.

And even if all the outside experts somehow heard the rumor, they would flock in and it would be impossible to control.

Even now, isn’t the system of obeying orders from above problematic due to the series of revelations about the Luoyang Sword?

“…house owner.”

Yeon So-hyeon spoke to Namgung Buk-wi.

“As we increase the level of security, eventually, only the best swordsmen will remain as witnesses of the non-combat.”

And then that happens.

Naturally, from then on, the rumors will spread unilaterally in Yeon So-hyeon’s favor, regardless of the actual outcome.

“Rather. It would be fairer and less of a spectacle if we had a quick fight here and now.”

That part was understandable, so the next move was to be Namgung Bukwi.

“… Then, please avoid life-or-death decisions.”

At those words, Yeon So-hyeon and Geum Wang Namgung Je nodded at the same time.

“That’s right.”

“I don’t want to die here either.”

And before the story gets any longer, the remaining conditions were directly coordinated by Yeon So-hyeon and King Namgung Je.

“What about the weapon?”

“I am originally bare-handed, but Your Majesty the Sword King uses the sword.”

“In exchange for five?”

“How about one breath?”

“Good.”

“great.”

The tuning was over in an instant, which was frustrating.

“… … .”

King Namgung Je nodded briefly to express his gratitude to the head of the household, Namgung Bukwi, who was taking a deep breath while looking up at the sky.

“Thank you, Gaju.”

“… Even if you get hurt badly, drink it.”

at that time.

Yeon So-hyeon shouted out her inner strength toward the stadium.

“Wait a minute, Your Majesty the Sword King and I will borrow this stadium…!”

“… … .”

“… … .”

How completely frozen everyone, including the audience, was at those words.

Yeon So-hyeon’s scream echoed through the stadium several times.

And then, a moment after the echo ended.

Waaaa …

A thunderous roar shook the massive main stadium.

* * *

The boys’ team waiting room.

At first, the children thought it was a natural disaster like an earthquake, but later realized that it was actually a roar.

and.

When a child who had been sticking his head out the window shouted this to the inside.

“The Grand Duke of the Sword Family and the Sword King are going to have a duel…!”

All of them too.

They immediately started running outside, cheering like the crowd.

“Huh…!”

Inside it.

There was also a Wudangpa (武當派) dragon who used his body technique to run on the shoulders of children who filled the corridors for players to enter and leave the stadium.

“Eek… ?!”

There was also An So-so who was quick to jump out in front with the dark incense of Hwasan and was startled when she saw the children rushing in from behind.

“Get out of the way…! I said don’t push me…!”

There was also Hwangbo Seung-hye of the Hwangbo family, who was still wearing tattered and splendid martial arts uniforms, but was still hanging out with the children.

“Euuuuuuuuu… ?!”

“Ewwaaaaaaah… ?!”

and.

When they exited the stadium through the players’ entrance.

Ewwaaa …

already.

I was able to vividly witness the sight of two supreme beings facing each other on the stage.

“…omg?!”

“Are we just going to start like this?! Just like this, all of a sudden?! Without any warning?!”

“Eww…! This is crazy, this is crazy…!”

“This Yongbongjihoe (Dragon and Phoenix Meeting) will remain a legend…!”

The children were shaking their heads at the end of the stage, but the two figures on the stage showed no reaction.

instead.

“Hey, kids.”

A voice that was overtly delinquent, yet deeply creepy, restrained the children.

“I won’t tell you to get out. If you don’t want to die, back away and stick to the wall of the stands.”

One of the children shouted after seeing the figure’s five swords.

“Death-stealing Ghost Sword… ?!”

“A ghost sword that has been stolen?! Really?!”

Even as he shouted that, the children obediently followed his command and lined up in a line along the wall of the stands, sticking close to him.

“Hehehe.”

The gatekeeper, Talmyeonggwigeom, laughed as he took his eyes off the children, folded his arms, and looked up at the stage.

“This is it. I was dissatisfied with my master’s useless guarding, but now I get to see a precious weapon that I will never see again. I am very lucky.”

“It’s the same.”

And then, ta-tat.

There was a sound of light footsteps landing, and someone was standing next to the Demon Sword.

“… Volcanic Sword Dragon.”

The eyes of the Talmyeonggwigeom narrowed as he recognized the volcanic sword dragon Gam Woo-hyeon.

“Isn’t the area near the stage off-limits to anyone other than staff?”

“Ah, then that….”

Volcanic Sword Dragon Gam Woo-Hyeon said, shaking the pass around his neck.

“I’m in charge of guiding the children of our Volcano faction who are competing today.”

“A guide…?”

Sigh.

The Demon Sword with the name Talmyung smiled twistedly.

“The world’s greatest swordsman is now a leader of children. He was cut off from being a disciple of the head family and is now treated like leftover rice?”

“What are you talking about?”

It was a word that could be painful, but Volcanic Sword Dragon didn’t care.

“If I could see this kind of nonsense, I would change poopy diapers for the rest of my life.”

“… … .”

Instead of answering, the Demon Sword shrugged his shoulders in agreement.

Maybe later.

When they heard the news of this secret war, there were countless masters in Luoyang who would strike the ground in despair.

Here, this raindrop like this.

They could see it right in front of their noses, and it was as if they were enjoying the best luck as a warrior.

“By the way… .”

The Demon Sword turned its gaze and looked at the audience.

“Get out of the way! Get out of the way!”

“How much does it cost?! How much do you want me to pay to get in?!”

“Do you know who I am?! Do you think you’ll be okay after doing this?!”

How quickly the rumor spread.

A scuffle broke out between the crowd trying to enter late and the soldiers trying to stop them for their safety.

Even.

Some of the nearby masters even climbed up the outer wall of the stadium and confronted the warriors of the Luoyang Swordsmanship School stationed on the roof.

“Hey, Volcanic Sword Dragon. It looks like your Volcanic Sect master is up there too.”

“… I don’t know. Don’t make eye contact.”

The Demon Sword laughed out loud.

“Ha, I don’t know if we can even get started properly in this mess. What if something like a riot breaks out and the event is halted?”

“Oh my god, crazy…?!”

Volcanic Sword Dragon Gam Woo-Hyeon immediately made an impression.

“Stop talking nonsense…!”

“No, that’s true.”

Chaang! Chang!

The demon swordsman pointed to the sight of people pulling out their weapons here and there and starting to confront each other, as if he was watching them.

“Haa…, My lord too. And what on earth is that Sword King Yeong-gaeng-tang going to do in this mess-.”

and.

That moment.

The demon swordsman shut his mouth due to the terrible sense of discomfort that was coming over his body.

And then he realized.

“… … .”

“… … .”

The crowds that were causing a commotion at the stadium entrances and exits.

There were also masters who climbed up the outer wall, drew their weapons, and confronted the warriors.

Even.

The entire crowd that filled the stands.

At that moment, it was as if time had stopped and silence had fallen.

and.

“… … .”

The gaze of the Demon Swordsman turned to the two figures on the stage who were the ones responsible for causing the silence.

‘…crazy.’

King Namgungje and Yeonsuhyeon.

Those two people are just.

They pulled each other up and made the entire stadium cower just by showing off their momentum.

“I, I will now explain the rules of the martial arts… .”

The presenter who had been waiting came up trembling and opened his mouth.

Although he was also a famous man with a reputation for being unmanned, he felt all too vividly that he was nothing more than a newborn baby in front of these two people.

“The fight will end the moment both of you take a breath, and if you get hurt, it will end at that moment. Do you both agree?”

Under the incredible pressure of the two unmanned forces, he could not even try to put a single ounce of inner energy into his voice, but everyone in the stadium that had fallen into deep silence could clearly hear his voice.

of course.

“… … .”

“… … .”

There was no answer from either person.

Both, now.

It is bringing out the extreme concentration.

“…then.”

The host, who took the silence as consent, took out a gold coin with trembling hands.

and.

In the eyes of everyone.

Teeing-!

With a clear sound, the gold coins spun and floated into the air.
