Who threatened to call me Cheonmahara with a knife? Episode 52

Base (2)

After hearing the general situation regarding Ilmok’s escort from Eunwigak Iljojang.

“Hmm.”

Cheonma, who seemed lost in thought, stroked his beard and asked.

“Do you know the reason why Jin Ha-yeon’s achievements have increased?”

In response to that question, Eunwigak Iljojang, who was wearing a tight black nightgown, told about the scene he saw that night.

After hearing the explanation from the leader, Cheonma said with a gentle smile.

“Hahaha. You’re still young.”

It must have been a truly horrifying incident for Guyangmun and Jin Hayeon, but for Cheonma, who was already over a hundred years old, it was a cute story to hear. It was like watching his young grandchildren do their best.

“Hayeon’s achievements are rising rapidly, so expectations are high.”

At Cheonma’s words, Iljojang responded with a gentle smile, different from his usual reserved attitude.

“It seems like she could become the child who will most closely assist her lord in the future.”

Eunwigak (Hidden Guard Pavilion).

As an institution to train the guardians of the Heavenly Horse, the Eunwigakju had to always be by the Heavenly Horse’s side to serve him.

And in order to train the escorts of the Heavenly Demon, most of the new recruits are assigned to become servants or maids of the Heavenly Demon or key figures of the sect to gain experience after learning the dirty work of maids or maids.

Jin Ha-yeon also became a subject of controversy through such a process, and as the second-ranking official of the Magic Hall, she was a talent that was expected of her in the Eunwi Pavilion.

This was also due to the characteristics of the silver lining.

It was a very wonderful job as it was the job of serving the Heavenly Horse up close, but the problem was that he also had to take care of the chores assigned to the maids and servants.

The best of the demonic cult’s best gathered from the Magic Hall, preferred work in the armed forces, the guardians’ quarters, and the courts of justice over such difficult tasks.

Every year, one or two students from the Magic Academy were assigned to the Silver Pavilion, but there were countless cases where students from the bottom of the twenty graduating class were the ones who came.

In other words, a child who was already expected to achieve greatly improved in achievement thanks to Ichimoku’s help. Even though it was not Ichimoku’s help.

However, for some reason, Cheonma shook his head at the words of the leader.

“Hahaha. It’s been a long time since I’ve been over a hundred years old. Perhaps by the time that child reaches your level, he’ll be serving the next Heavenly Horse, not me.”

“Your words are absolutely unjust. We will serve you with all our heart.”

“Hahaha. No matter how hard a human tries, how can they go against the will of heaven?”

“Punish us for our shortcomings.”

Cheonma said with a look of regret on his face as he saw Il Jo-jang prostrating himself and asking for forgiveness.

“Okay, then go back to Ilmok. Something might happen while you’re away.”

At Cheonma’s stern command, she hesitated for a moment, then showed extreme courtesy and disappeared into the darkness.

“A thousand years. A thousand years. A thousand years.”

Cheonma, who had been praying for his own longevity and looking at the empty spot left by the disappeared Iljojang, soon turned his gaze and opened the window to look at the brightly shining moon.

“Still, thanks to that kid, I’ve reached the point where I look forward to the next day.”

Most of the things that people would experience were the same as those that happened to Cheonma. Every day was just a continuation of the same thing.

However, the appearance of Ichimoku brought some change to the boring days.

As I thought about the child’s rapid growth and the new religion that was gradually changing because of the child, I began to look forward to the next day.

“How long has it been since I felt this way?”

It was just a shame that the day of departure was slowly approaching.

* * *

The next day.

After finishing breakfast, Ilmok prepared himself and headed somewhere with Jin Ha-yeon and Guyang-mun.

It was a familiar road to Ilmok. It was the road from Pungamjeon to Uibang.

But I wasn’t headed to the doctor.

A manor house located near a medical clinic.

At the entrance to the manor, which was originally used for other purposes, there was a signboard that I had never seen before.

[Jeongsimwon (Jeongsimwon)]

A hospital that purifies the mind.

The Ilmok called this place a mental hospital, but they couldn’t bring themselves to officially put that name on display.

And the person who welcomed Ilmok upon his arrival at Jeongsimwon was an old man whom Ilmok had met several times.

“I am meeting the magic doctor.”

He was the head of the medical clinic at the headquarters of the Cheonmasingyo sect, and he was the old man who examined and treated Ilmok several times when he was taken to the medical clinic.

And the demon answered with a playful smile and excessive courtesy at Ichimoku’s greeting.

“I am the one who meets the Lord of the Heart.”

At the devil’s greeting, Ichimoku smiled awkwardly.

“Jeongsimwonju? That’s ridiculous. Don’t you have to enter the Magic Hall in a few months anyway?”

“Hahaha. Well then, I guess you could call it a temporary Jeongsimwonju.”

Ilmok laughed bitterly at the successive magic tricks.

I thought of her as an old lady with a playful side that was not typical of a member of the National Assembly.

It seemed tiring to be swayed by that old man’s tricks, so Ilmok changed the subject.

“But, did the old man of the devil also move the enemy to Jeongsimwon?”

“Hehehe. How could I not be interested in researching new treatments as a member of the National Assembly? So, from now on, please call me Vice-Chairman. Acting Chief.”

“Ha. I will be leaving in a few months, so Elder Ma will take charge of Wonju. I will be content to be the temporary vice-principal.”

“Hahaha. Are you sure you want to do that?”

Ma-ui burst into a playful laugh and said, pointing to one side of the pavilion.

“Oh, come to your senses. I’m really sorry for keeping you up and talking. When you get older, you forget things, so please understand.”

Immediately after entering the room, I took out the booklet I had brought in advance and placed it on the table.

“This is a summary of my thoughts on the operation of Jeongsimwon last night.”

Immediately after being given a new job by Cheonma.

Ilmok, who returned to Pungamjeon, couldn’t sleep. Thanks to the side effects of the damned Talhonmujeonggeom.

It wasn’t like that, I couldn’t sleep until I finished writing the [mental ward plan] after staying up all night.

The only fortunate thing was that I had already had two conversations with Cheonma and most of the big picture had been laid out.

If I had to do it all from the beginning, it would have been a chore even if I stayed up all night.

“Hehehe. Just like I heard, you’re quite meticulous, temporary vice-chairman. Since you come here so often, I was actually a little worried.”

“Well, it wasn’t my mistake that I got carried away, right?”

“That’s true. Hehehe.”

We exchanged light banter and took a moment to read the booklet Ilmok had given us.

Suddenly, the playfulness disappeared from the magician’s eyes.

‘… It’s worse than I heard.’

It wasn’t a haphazardly written down plan; it was really organized systematically.

Ways to obtain medical books from various places such as the Central Plains and Saewai, ways to study those books, and ways for patients and doctors to experiment on them.

A system for training new members to work in the Jeongsimwon.

Above all, the items related to conducting consultations and keeping records after consultations were organized in great detail.

It was a system of such a level that it was hard to believe that it was created by a fifteen-year-old kid.

It could be said that it was thanks to the side effects of that damn magic.

As soon as Ma-ui, who had been reading the book with his mouth shut, checked the last page and closed the book, Il-mok opened his mouth.

“Getting medical books and training doctors not only requires help from other places, but also takes a long time. So, it seems like it would be better to first sort out the consultation side of things.”

“As for the first two matters, the Heavenly Demon has also given instructions to other angles and circles to prepare, so it would be right to proceed with the consultation work first as the Vice-Minister said.”

The magician agreed with Ilmok’s words and asked.

“Then, as the vice-chairman said, should we proceed by first gathering cases?”

“In order to deal with new patients, shouldn’t we start by collecting and classifying cases to create treatments first?”

“That’s true.”

Even from the member’s perspective, it made perfect sense.

‘Divide into the side effects of each magic skill, consult with those who have learned the magic skill, and leave a record… .’

Ma-ui was lost in thought as he recalled the contents of the booklet that Ilmok had handed him.

In fact, there were many records of the side effects of magic.

If there had been no record in the first place, it would not have been known what side effects each magic had.

However, the problem was that the records on the side effects of magic were also in disarray.

In addition, only the ‘side effects’ were known. There were almost no records of how the unmanned people dealt with the side effects, how they overcame them, or when they failed to overcome them and fell into a state of obsession.

This was because most of the martial artists who had mastered magic, instead of leaving records, simply passed on their experiences through ‘words’ to disciples or family members who had mastered the same magic.

The reason was simple.

The reason I suffered from the side effects of magic was because it was an ’embarrassing experience’. It was something that could not be easily conveyed to others.

“I could probably gather and organize the records that were divided into two groups, but I’m not sure if the church members will actively participate in the consultation.”

It was a matter of having to bring up embarrassing memories. If they distorted or hid their memories because they were embarrassed, it could lead to a bigger accident later on.

Regarding such worries of the devil, Ichimoku responded as if it was nothing.

“If you borrow the Master’s halo, that’s it. How could you disobey the stern command of the Heavenly Demon? Also, if you, along with your disciples, take the lead, it will be difficult to refuse the ‘counseling’ itself.”

They were selling the name of the great leader without any care.

Since he had passed the work on to me, it seemed only natural that he should lend me his name.

“And as the number of unmanned subjects participating in counseling increases, the number of control groups also increases, making it easier to filter out those who participated in counseling under false pretenses.”

“Hmm. I guess you’re saying not to completely trust what the people you consult with say.”

“Most of them suffer from the side effects of magic. Apart from shame, there will be those who believe it to be true and discuss lies.”

“That also makes sense.”

“Lastly and most important, the attitude of the members of the National Assembly is important.”

“… … ?”

The magician had an expression that said he didn’t understand at first glance.

“This is a counseling session that exposes the shortcomings. You should never give off an atmosphere that seems like an ‘interrogation’ or an atmosphere that makes you feel sorry for the other person. Also, you should not give off an atmosphere that is too sympathetic or excessively agree with and sympathize with the other person. It is best to just listen to the other person in a gentle manner and draw out their inner feelings.”

“… It seems easy, but it’s not an easy condition.”

“Yes. And most importantly, confidentiality. If the rumors about the corruption you revealed spread, who would come here for consultation?”

‘With the stern command of the Heavenly Demon, no doctor would do such a foolish thing.’

Lago Ma-ui wanted to answer, but the expression on Ichimoku’s face as he looked at him was quite serious.

“… I will make sure to pay special attention.”

“I will only trust you, my lord.”

Ma Yi, who had been swept up in the atmosphere of the young youngest Confucius for a while, soon came to his senses and said.

“Well, first, I should hear the story of the Viceroy. According to Cheonma, he helped raise the status of the Grand Duke, the Third Duke, and most recently, a concubine named Hayeon.”

In response to Ma-ui’s question, Ichimoku recalled the conversation he had with the three of them in as much detail as he could.

And Ma-ui took Ichimoku’s story seriously and wrote it down carefully.

“Other than these three, what about the vice-principal? I heard that his achievements have been rising rapidly recently. Is there no problem?”

“… … .”

After thinking for a moment, Ilmok calmed down and spoke frankly about the side effects he had been suffering from recently.

‘I never thought that in my life, I would receive psychiatric counseling, something I have never experienced even in modern times.’

Of course, I couldn’t tell all my feelings truthfully.

Because you will be filled with insults towards the Heavenly Demon who taught you the Talhonmujeonggeom and anger towards the false fanatics.

Even though this was a mental ward, it was a mental ward belonging to the ‘Cheonma Shingyo’.

The moment you curse Cheonma or Cheonma Shingyo, it was obvious that your balls would be cut off.
