Who threatened to call me Cheonmahara with a knife? Episode 68

First Test (3)

Somewhere on Taecheonbong where the first test is being held.

puck.

“Ugh… .”

Looking down at the fallen Guan Dao who had been hit by the demon blood of his own method, Dokgo Pae spoke with a pitiful expression.

“Tsk. You idiots.”

Next to the fallen pipe, another pipe was also fallen.

Despite being divided into groups by sign, they were moving alone.

The reason was simple. They split into two groups to quickly collect the tokens.

The problem was that, unlike the Ichimoku no Cho, they didn’t move just the two of them as bait, but really only the two of them moved.

While the two were moving like that, they encountered Dokgo’s group and were subdued.

Meanwhile, the three officials in the same group as Dokgo-pae were looking at Dokgo-pae with bewildered expressions.

‘I had the same thought.’

‘How can you be so shameless!’

In fact, when I first heard the rules, Dokgo-pae made the same argument. No, it was even worse than them.

Let’s split into four groups right now and quickly collect the tokens.

‘I must definitely get a higher score than Prince Pal!’

In Dokgo’s mind, the only thought was to defeat Ilmok.

Fortunately for them, Dokgo’s rampage was stopped by the other members of the group.

– Move separately. What do you plan to do if you meet the youngest prince’s group?’

– Huh! Didn’t you say that fighting is prohibited anyway? I would like to defeat the youngest prince through a head-on confrontation, but if that’s the rule, wouldn’t it be best to move first?

Dokgo-pae thought.

This test is good for him. It’s his first day at the Magic Hall. At least he won the light combat.

However, due to the subsequent criticism from his teammates, Dokgo-pae had no choice but to withdraw his thoughts.

– It’s not a rule to prohibit fighting, but to not cause serious injuries. It means that subduing is possible. Even if you’re a Dokgo Guan Dao, can you take on the entire group that the youngest prince belongs to by yourself?

– … Ahem. Ma, I don’t know if it’s just one of the youngest princes, but if the four of them ‘fatally’ attack together, it won’t be easy.

Because of his pride, he was a stubborn man who couldn’t bring himself to say that he lost to the youngest prince.

In any case, thanks to the wisdom of his crew, the Dokgo faction did not commit the folly of taking individual action.

“These guys had two tokens.”

“Hahaha! It seems like the speed was still fast because the two of you moved separately!”

After searching the bodies of the two subdued men, their faces brightened when they found two wooden plaques.

They were the only ones who had found one sign as the four of them were moving together.

Just after finishing organizing the loot, Dokgo-pae shouted.

“Then let’s move on to the next location!”

The three remaining members let out a faint sigh at the sight of Dokgo-pae leading the way, shouting as if he were the leader.

“Haa. I got the wrong one.”

“I don’t understand why you’ve been leading the way since earlier when you can’t even read the map properly.”

“That’s why you kept getting lost and couldn’t find anything else.”

In fact, one of the main reasons they were late in collecting the tokens was because of Dokgo-pae’s bad temper.

Dokgo-pae, who was only focused on martial arts, did not stand out much in Instructor Eun-ryeo’s class.

I learned the Dokdo Act to some extent, but it had some flaws.

But strangely, I was so confident that I kept taking the lead and ended up going down a strange path.

“Well, I’m satisfied with just being given the role of leader, so just watch.”

When Guan Dao, who had insisted that Dokgopae go together, said so, the other two nodded.

Although he has a self-righteous tendency, he tends to understand if you coax him nicely.

Honestly, it was easier to organize opinions if there was a leader like that than if there was no leader at all.

When opinions differed, there had to be someone who pushed hard for anything to be done.

After that, they continued their journey under the leadership of Dokgopae.

Dokgo-pae took the lead, and whenever they seemed to be taking the wrong path, the three of them would try to calm them down and change their path.

However, as if quite some time had passed, there were no signs left even when we arrived at the new location.

“Tsk. Let’s move on to the next location!”

Dokgo-pae clicked his tongue as if he was disappointed, and for a moment, he quickly sorted out the situation and moved on.

“!!!”

They could spot another group beyond the bushes.

But, it was different from before.

Because they were people who gathered together and moved together.

In addition to that.

“Tsk. A surprise attack would be difficult.”

Unfortunately, the other side also discovered them.

Naturally, a tense atmosphere developed between them.

The moment even one person behaves strangely, it feels like a battle will break out.

One of the innkeepers from the other side also stepped forward confidently.

The woman who came forward with a confident and proud gait and expression was none other than Bang Mi-hwa.

Dokgo-pae also knew of her existence. They were originally from the same class, and there were only ten members in the class, but that wasn’t the reason they knew about her.

‘A woman who hangs around the youngest prince.’

The only thing that remained in my memory was that Dokgo-pae was hanging around Ichimoku, which was of interest to him.

However, the words that came out of her mouth were beyond Dokgo-pae’s expectations.

“Since it is fate that we met like this, how about forming a temporary alliance?”

“Temporary alliance?”

“Because we have the Palgongja group, the strongest candidate for victory.”

Dokgo and his men could understand what she meant.

After organizing the first group of people, they started competing among themselves.

However, Dokgo-pae couldn’t believe her words.

“Huh. How can I believe what you say when you’ve been stuck with the youngest prince for the past month?”

“Because both I and the youngest prince know how to distinguish between public and private matters.”

Bang Mi-hwa was certain that Ichimoku’s feelings toward her would not change with just this little trick.

Bang Mi-hwa truly believed so, but the problem was Dokgo-pae.

He said with a wicked smile.

“Hmph. Such petty methods do not suit me, the eldest grandson of the Great Dogokose family. I will subdue you here and now, take away the tokens, and take the youngest prince’s token through a head-on fight!”

As soon as Dokgo-pae finished his provocative words, both sides drew their weapons without saying who would go first, and a naturally tense atmosphere was created.

“You must be so foolish to choose punishment.”

Bang Mi-hwa, who pulled out a fan with a proud expression, secretly covered the left side of her lower face with the fan, making her confident right side stand out.

From some point on, she began to believe that the right side of her face was her real face.

Because only the more beautiful, more perfect self was the real self.

Of course, Dokgo-pae, who had no interest in her whatsoever, planned to swing his sword and attack her.

If only I hadn’t heard the assistant’s voice from behind.

“Dokgo Jojang. Wasn’t Jojang’s goal the youngest prince? Fighting them here now is a bad idea.”

Dokgo-pae stopped swinging his sword and focused on the official’s words.

Until now, he had just been called a ‘coach’, but this time he was called a ‘coach’.

“Why?”

When the opponent called him a leader, Dokgo-pae naturally treated him with contempt.

“If we fight them for no reason, we might get injured on our side. Also, if Captain Dokgo injures them, he might not be able to compete with the youngest Confucius and might be eliminated or have problems.”

At that seemingly reasonable point, Dokgo-pae clicked his tongue and took back his sword.

“Tsk. I’ll deal with you guys after you fight the youngest prince.”

As if he had done all he could, Dokgo-pae confidently turned his back and walked in the opposite direction.

Dokgo’s crew members also started to follow him, and Bang Mi-hwa and her crew members watched them leave with their backs turned.

“Mi-hwa. Wouldn’t it be better to launch a surprise attack now?”

At her close friend Ha-young’s suggestion, Bang Mi-hwa shook her head with a haughty expression.

“If we fight with them for no reason, we’ll be the only ones who suffer.”

“Still, wouldn’t it be more advantageous to deal with them than with the youngest prince?”

“There’s no way Dokgo Guan-do can beat the youngest Confucius anyway. If he drops out on his own, our ranking will go up.”

“But what if we get hit by the youngest prince?”

“If that’s the case, don’t worry, I have a plan in mind.”

At her confident friend’s answer, Ha-young nodded with an expression that said, ‘As expected.’

“… … .”

Of course, the two officers from the second division who were waiting behind and listening to the conversation just had anxious expressions on their faces.

* * *

A while after meeting Bang Mi-hwa’s group.

“Tch. It’s not here either.”

Dokgo-pae, who had arrived at another location following the map, clicked his tongue and muttered.

At that moment, the official who was acting as the group’s keeper opened his mouth.

“It seems like all the tokens have already been recovered, Commander. From now on, it will be a fight to take back the tokens that each person has obtained.”

“Hmm. That’s a good thing. Rather than looking for such trivial signs, fighting is more my style. Hahaha.”

Even at the sight of Dokgo-pae laughing ignorantly, the official barely maintained a smiling expression as he spoke.

“In that sense, how about we start preparing a meal now?”

“Food? What does that mean?”

“I trust the leader, but wouldn’t it be dangerous to meet the youngest lord on an empty stomach?”

“Hoo.”

“Also, the only one who can deal with the youngest prince is the captain, so in the end, it will be a showdown between the captain and the youngest prince.”

“Oh my!”

In the end, Dokgo-pae, who was persuaded by the official’s words, decided to eat lunch.

“If you do that, come find something to eat right now!”

As the leader, he was a loner who felt it was unnecessary for him to take on such chores.

Following Dokgo-pae’s instructions, we search the forest for food.

“ha.”

The official who was performing the role of a messenger. Gwak-sul sighed faintly.

In fact, he had no intention of letting Dokgo-pae face off against Ilmok. Given their past actions, it was predictable that Dokgo-pae would lose outright.

‘… Since Dokgo Guan-do doesn’t have the talent to read traces anyway, the best way would be to trick him and have him clash with another group.’

Kwak-sul still felt regretful that he could not accept Bang Mi-hwa’s proposal. However, it was difficult to put back in the water that Dokgo-pae had already spilled.

After gathering his thoughts about what to do next, he wandered around the mountains for a while, looking for something to eat.

And by the time Kwak-sul and the other two had finished hunting and gathering, half an hour had passed.

Unlike the Jeonghyeon in Ilmokjo, none of them had ever hunted or gathered.

Thanks to my martial arts skills, I was able to move faster than most animals, and I had learned basic tracking techniques, so I was able to successfully hunt them down, and I was able to finish them off in half an hour.

By the time we had prepared the food, lit the fire, slaughtered the animals, and finished preparing the meal, it was well past two o’clock when the exams began.

“Hahaha. Just like Guo Guan Du said, it was a good thing that you prepared your meal in advance.”

Not only was Dokgo-pae talking like that, but the other three were now completely empty stomachs.

“Listen.”

The moment Dokgo-pae, who had now become completely accustomed to his role as the leader, naturally gave orders and brought the freshly grilled meat, which gave off a strong odor, to his mouth.

Rustle.

Beyond the bushes, a man and a woman could be seen running towards me.

“What the hell.”

“Fuck.”

“You must have gone crazy wanting to die.”

While the two assistants and Dokgo-pae each frowned, took their hands off the meat, and grabbed their weapons.

“Something is strange!”

Kwak-sul shouted as he saw the man and woman running towards him.

“There are four of us, so isn’t it strange that only two of us are rushing in!?”

The moment when everyone felt puzzled by Kwak Sul’s reasonable point.

Pot!

Suddenly, a tree appeared from between the nearby bushes and rushed towards Dokgo-pae.

The moment when everyone’s eyes were focused on the youngest prince who suddenly appeared.

visor!

“Ugh… .”

An arrow flew in without warning, and one of the officials was hit by a blood clot and fell down.

visor!

Only then did Dokgo-pae, whose sword and weapon had clashed with Ilmok’s, shout with an evil expression on his face.

“These bastards are just as vile!!”

Bang Mi-hwa, who tried to capture Il-mok as an ally, or Il-mok, who surprised him while he was eating.

To Dokgo-pae, they were all the same bastards.

Of course, Ichimoku, who had no idea about the affair involving Bang Mi-hwa, simply swung his sword with a look of absurdity.
