Episode 105 One who looks into the heart of God (5)
Hu Yao-seong’s words ca to mind.
– Even if I don’t have to tell you, I’m sure the leader will know everything, right?
– There’s no way the leader doesn’t know what I know, right?
Yes.
The reason Ho Yo-seong is so great – or dangerous – is because his personal ability and power are enormous.
He was a genius with outstanding insight and at the sa ti a general military commander with power over all people.
And the person who walked in a place that was one level higher than Hoyoseong was none other than Lee Cheon-sang.
Not only is the position of the religious leader, the most powerful person in Protestantism, higher, but his personal abilities are also incomparable. If Ho Yo-seong is the eye of Shingyo, Lee Cheon-sang is Shingyo itself.
There is no way that Lee Cheon-sang, who knew full well who the real culprit who murdered the seven believers two years ago was, did not know about Seo-ryang’s expulsion.
Then why didn’t he reprimand Seo Liang?
– It may or may not be true. I can’t even see what the leader is thinking about and how he moves.
Seo-ryang secretly rubbed his sweaty palm on Lee Cheon-sang’s thigh. My throat tightened and my back beca wet.
Yes, I knew. I vaguely knew about it through conversations with Ho Yo-seong. But hearing the story in front of my eyes felt different.
If I wanted to punish her for that, I would have called her sooner. Of course, it’s not like they’re trying to catch you now.
…I know, but why are you so anxious?
Lee Cheon-sang continued indifferently.
“These herbs were not collected to make elixirs.”
Oh yes.
“These are focused on eliminating, stealing, and killing any elent. “It is of little use in making elixirs that require amplification of dicinal power.”
“….”
“But to , he is as useful as Ji Kang-hyeon, whom I received as a disciple.”
Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.
He said that Ji Kang-hyeon was needed for the Heavenly Demon Church. And like Ji Kang-hyeon, he said that those herbs were useful for him.
Thinking of oneself as the Heavenly Demon Church itself. It could be said to be the confidence of a religious leader, but Seoryang felt a strange sense of discomfort.
‘Wait a minute, didn’t you say Ji Kang-hyun was an ingredient?’
ingredient.
It wasn’t a taphor or anything. I could literally feel Lee Cheon-sang’s sincerity in using Ji Kang-hyeon as his material.
“What do you an it’s useful?”
“We will experint on him with these herbs.”
“Experint…?”
“Yes.”
Unique indifferent eyes. In those eyes, Seoryang read the cruelty of a demon god that was far from human common sense.
“The concentration of true energy, the level of clarity of consciousness, and the threshold of desire. After taking all that into account, we will destroy his humanity.”
“…!”
“The probability of success cannot be calculated. Of course, it won’t be an easy task, and he will most likely end up as a ruined person.”
Dehumanize? Nine tis out of ten, you’re going to end up in ruins? What kind of creepy thing is this again?
A faint smile appeared on Lee Cheon-sang’s lips.
“If it fails, it will be discarded.”
Xiliang felt chills.
You an disposal? Lee Cheon-sang was now saying that he would conduct a human experint that had no chance of success.
I didn’t want to ask what the reason was. It didn’t seem like they would tell .
There was sothing else I was really curious about.
“Did you say from the beginning that you would accept as a disciple for that purpose?”
“Because the Demon Sword matriarch wanted it.”
“…!”
“If I hadn’t been asked to take my child as my disciple, I would have experinted on my own body. However, if he is a felon who deserves punishnt, there would be no harm in using him as an experint material.”
“What are you going to do when the experint is over?”
“We will only know when the ti cos. “But I don’t think the cooked fish will be able to swim in the sea again.”
Xu Liang’s eyes wavered.
I don’t know how terrible the experint was. However, I would rather have my head cut off with a single knife than beco soone’s experint material and cry out in despair.
Anyone would do that.
I don’t know if he will be punished appropriately for the cri he committed, but it is clear that it will at least be a terrible end.
‘It’s sothing a person shouldn’t do.’
Yes. This is inhumane.
But…
“I hope you fail if possible.”
A cruel look of death flashed in Seo-ryang’s eyes.
“That’s also very miserable.”
Seven Protestant believers were killed?
That alone is a serious cri that would be worth beating to death. But it’s not just that.
He must have put countless civilians in hell by now. The vivid life that appears in the corner of the eye proves it.
Even if all the cris were revealed and he was imprisoned in a penal court, he would have been sentenced to death or life imprisonnt at best.
It is better to suffer miserably in endless despair. That was Seo-ryang’s idea.
And Lee Cheon-sang thought while looking at such generosity.
‘We’re getting closer.’
When I brought my third child to Panmajeong, all I could feel was death.
The guy instinctively understood the concept of death.
Lee Cheon-sang, who has been digging into demons for decades and has now even begun to break away from the concept of demons, never thought that such a thing could exist in reality.
But it’s different now.
The guy who used to walk only in death was now slowly getting closer to being a demon.
It doesn’t matter why he was angry. The important thing is that this guy has beco more cruel and rough than before.
In this way, as you gradually beco closer to the devil, the reason will no longer matter. It will beco cruel, rough, and evil for no reason.
If he doesn’t reach the realm of extre magic before then… this guy will just be a common demon who is just strong.
Xiliang sighed.
“No matter what, if it was going to turn out like this, I guess I was being rude for no reason.”
Lee Cheon-sang knew the real culprit and even had plans to deal with him. In the end, he went out in vain and ended up suffering physically.
“Not like that.”
“yes?”
“I do not receive interference from flesh and blood in dealing with my students. But didn’t the Demon Sword Family realize this situation thanks to you coming forward?”
“…?”
“Even if I committed a mortal sin, I can’t help but feel resentnt towards the cult leader who ruined my family.”
“…!”
“Because you ca forward, as a result, the Demon Sword Head stopped being dissatisfied with . There is a big difference in whether you know it in advance or not, and whether you admit it yourself or not.”
“…okay.”
“Therefore, the Demon Sword Head should be grateful to you.”
thanks?
“Thanks to that, we were able to maintain the family’s legacy.”
Seo-ryang’s eyes widened.
Maintain the family na? What does this an again?
Lee Cheon-sang said after emptying his glass.
“I will give you an order soon. “I think you guys are so hungry that you go outside to get so fresh air without even looking at them, so I think it’s the perfect way to clear your nose.”
Seo-ryang cleared his throat without realizing it. I’m grateful that I just passed it on, but I didn’t think it was necessary to say sothing like that.
By the way, is it a na?
“Just so you know.”
“Oh yeah.”
“Just go out and see.”
Seoryang bows his head and leaves Daejeon.
Out of curiosity, he turned around.
“Um…the leader.”
“….”
“Can I ask you one more question?”
“I allow it.”
Xu Liang’s face beca blurred.
“Then, do you know why Ji Yeong-hyeon, the third son, beca like that?”
“Know.”
I knew it would happen.
“Imnse internal power was sealed. “My martial arts skills were insignificant.”
“I guess so.”
“Even though I was fine during the day, I lost my temper at night. “Why on earth is that guy…?”
Lee Cheon-sang spoke clearly.
“You don’t need to know that much.”
Seo-ryang, embarrassed, bowed his head again.
“See you later.”
thud.
And just like that, the gates of Daejeon closed.
Lee Cheon-sang, who was filling his glass alone, took out a gold bag from his pocket.
“It’s called the Avatar Jewel… Is it still in Gangho?”
There was a hint of interest in his eyes.
“I found sothing interesting.”
This is one of the items posted by the convoy minen with their reports. At the ti, everything deed useful at the raid site was collected.
The collected items also included blood and toenails of bloodworms. Also in his hand was the gold bag that Jeong Il-ryong had given to Oh Gyeong-hwa, the leader of the Iron Widan, in exchange for obtaining the Avatar Jewel.
“In many ways, I see the third benefit.”
The Avatar Gem plays the role of absorption when the right circumstances are created.
It’s not about sucking away your energy. It steals and absorbs a person’s life spirit.
If the Fire God Jewel had not fallen into his hands, he would have tried to get it into his hands as well.
Ji Young-hyeon, who learned the mutated absorption magic technique through Ji Kang-hyeon’s trick, would have been unable to live a normal life in the future.
That was the reason why Ji Young-hyeon aid for the Mukwanggeom. He approached in order to suck out the extre demon energy that was sleeping in the demonic bottle of heaven.
Of course, if he had absorbed the demonic energy of the Ink King Sword, his body would have exploded and he would have died.
‘I will make my blood relatives’ skills my own… I was too greedy.’
The reason Ji Kang-hyeon had Ji Young-hyeon learn the suction magic technique on his behalf was because he knew the side effects.
Perhaps Ji Kang-hyeon has been constantly managing Ji Young-hyeon.
He must have exquisitely manipulated and exploited Ji Young-hyeon’s desire to lose her senses and suck up the inner strength of others.
That was the reason why Ji Young-hyeon had an accident on her first day at school. The person who could suppress Ji Yeong-hyeon’s desires was not by his side because he was at the Demon God Palace.
“It will be an unforgettable annihilation ceremony for the head of the Demon Sword Family.”
You will have to think about what to do with your third son as well as your eldest son.
* * *
“So it is.”
“….”
“….”
Gogu and Soyeonsim said nothing.
Seoliang quenched his appetite. It’s a sowhat bland ending, having filtered out what needs to be filtered out, but what can you do? This is the board that Lee Cheon-sang belongs to and not anyone else.
Since Lee Cheon-sang said he would do it, the two people could not see the guy’s hands being handcuffed. It will be regrettable in many ways.
Soyeonsim sighed.
“I’m glad I did.”
“….”
“I don’t know how the leader will deal with the real culprit… but yeah. “This might be better.”
It seed like he really wanted to believe it.
Gogu shook his head.
“What Wonju So said is correct. “If the religious leader said he would do it, the real culprit would be in a lot of pain.”
“yes?”
“I am not trying to guess the intentions of my God, but when you reward or punish soone, you do not say that you will do this or that.”
“…!”
“The religious leader said he would handle it himself. I dare to guess that the real culprit will struggle in a place worse than hell. “Neither dead nor alive.”
Not only Su Yeonsim but also Seo Liang felt a shiver run down their spines.
No one else but Gogu, the leader of the Penal Law Party, says that. It felt real.
“Then what will Ji Young-hyeon do?”
“You didn’t say anything about it. “I think they’ll probably just leave us to handle it ourselves.”
“okay.”
Soyeonsim sighed. The screening seed complicated.
“I guess I’m just like everyone else in the end. “The one who committed the cri is my older brother, but my younger brother, Ji Young-hyeon, doesn’t look good either.”
“I understand.”
“If we do that, what happens to Ji Young-hyeon?”
Xiliang scratched his head.
“Perhaps the Demon Swordsman will ask you to be released?”
“I guess so.”
Gogu said.
“Although not as much as my brother, he is also guilty. “Because they attacked Protestant believers.”
“You man, that was a trap investigation.”
“That too. But who knows what he might do again if we let him go?”
“Then catch it then. Why would the Penal Code Hall be the Penal Code Hall?”
“Do you want to discuss the aning of the party’s existence? I’m sorry, but I am the head of the criminal code and the main person of this school. “We cannot let go of soone who will clearly cause harm to our school if left behind, even though we know that he will do so.”
Xiliang sighed. If you look at various logics, there will be no end to it.
‘Well, since he is detained in the penal court, there is no need for to say this or that.’
Then Gogu spoke.
“But even if you don’t need to catch him, the Demon Sword matriarch won’t ask for your third son.”
“huh? why? “They’ve condemned the first child to hell, so wouldn’t they try to take the third child with them?”
“The Demon Sword matriarch mismanaged her children. And the leader knows that.
“The Demon Swordsman cannot choose anything that could be considered an unreasonable request from this side.”
Gogu’s eyes lit up.
“You don’t want to see your family ruined because of your son.”
“….”
“He has already abandoned his eldest son. I made the decision not as a father, but as the head of the Demon Sword family. “The second choice will be easier.”
“…Right.”
“Of course, my heart will be broken that much.”
This is an extrely heartless statent. But it was also reality.
Seo-ryang thought for a mont and then stood up.
“Anyway, take care of what to do with him. “I think it’s right for to just leave.”
Gogu took control.
“Regardless of the outco, I am indebted to the Three Dukes. “I will not forget this debt.”
“Sniff, that’s it.”
Sowonju also bowed his head.
“Thank you for your hard work. I will visit you once a day.”
“I would appreciate it if you could bring a good drink.”
“Of course.”
Seo-ryang caught a glimpse of the two people and left the criminal court.
Ma Dong-pil, who had been waiting outside, hurriedly approached.
“Are you here?”
“Uh huh.”
“Did you finish well?”
“It’s a bit sloppy, but well…”
Seoryang sighed softly and grinned.
“There are two days left for the Pasun Festival, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Okay then…”
He clenched his fists.
“Let’s enjoy the remaining two days to the fullest!”
