Episode 413
‘That’s fun.’
There have been many tis when I have attended a eting hosted by a leader, but I can definitely say that there has never been a scene as exciting as today.
Elders who are rushing to report my atrocities and demand punishnt.
Even those who had maintained an amicable relationship with all this ti turned their backs on .
‘There are no worker bees running out of the hive.’
It wasn’t the first ti this had happened.
There must have been one or two people who took care of every little thing to keep , a person of interest, in check.
Nevertheless, there is one reason why the appearance of the elders today is clearly different from the past.
‘The composure disappeared from the faces of the elders.’
If it was natural, it was natural.
It’s called fire beauty.
From their point of view, it was a situation where the light was on.
What everyone was worried about finally beca a reality.
It was as bad as it could have been.
The Senate, which was like a sanctuary, was literally devastated by my rampage.
‘I can’t help but feel anxious.’
Until now, the attitude the elders have taken when keeping in check has been consistent.
Don’t try stabbing and if it doesn’t work.
The thod was to only touch the subject without overdoing it and within a range that would not cause harm.
If it were an ordinary martial arts island, it would have lost montum and sank just by that alone.
However, I steadily increased my position and rose to a position where I could put a knife to the neck of the elders.
‘Maybe he ca to his senses.’
When the Gamchalbu (監察部) and the Beopdang (執法堂) were absorbed into the Cheonan Gambu, they would have thought it was soone else’s business.
But now it has reached a point where the elders feel their safety is directly threatened.
He was clearly looking down from the perspective of a superior.
When I ca to my senses, I saw that my eye level was about to reverse.
It was no longer a situation where I could pretend to be polite and look back.
‘Originally, humans are creatures that only beco competitive when their own food is at stake.’
Even if he was an elder of the ng, it was no different.
How long have I been looking forward to this mont?
Finally, today, I was able to stand on the sa stage as the elders.
The day is not far when I will achieve the dream I have had ever since I returned ho.
* * *
“There is a procedure for everything. “What the Cheonan Inspector General did was neither an abuse of authority nor anything more or less than an excess of authority.”
“It is said that one punishnt is a hundred punishnts. “We must punish them clearly and restore order in the Murim Alliance.”
“It would be a good idea to take this ti to clearly address the issues that have been overlooked.”
“I also think the sa. A ball is a ball and a fruit is a fruit.”
“Using the cursed golden technique again! His teacher, Noegukdaeju (雷擊隊主), also hid the fact that he had learned Geumgong! As soon as he secured the object that was the cause of the last battle, he made an arbitrary decision to destroy it!”
The elders’ argunts seed to be getting stronger, and eventually a topic that had not been discussed in the previous eting ca up.
When are you pouring out praise with one mind and one voice in order to drive the Cheonan Gambu to the battlefield?
Now that he was coming forward to bla , I was so shocked that I couldn’t speak.
‘That’s right.’
The interesting thing was that among those who argued that I should be punished, not a single one discussed being relieved of my position.
All I could say was that my qualifications were questionable.
‘They can never kick out.’
As I said before, I was now an indispensable mber of the Murim Alliance.
There was no one who could replace .
‘Even Tosagufeng (兎死狗烹) can only be hunted once the hunting is over.’
With the death of Cheonakgun in the last battle, Master achieved his purpose of joining the alliance.
Nevertheless, the reason he did not resign yet was because he kept his followers and , his disciple, in mind.
To not abandon one’s duty at least until the war is over.
To increase the probability that the only disciple who inherited the martial arts skills of Tianrein would survive the war.
But what if I get kicked out of the club because of this?
Will Master really try to fulfill his duties as a torpedo leader until the end?
‘No way. He will probably give up his position to protest to the upper echelons of the alliance.’
If you thought that the torpedo squad would stop Master, you were mistaken.
Most of the leaders of the torpedo squad were made up of connections that Master had built up in the past.
If they joined in with the Master’s will, they did so, and there was no way anyone could try to dissuade them.
‘No matter how greedy the elders are, they will not be unable to discern even the bare minimum of self-interest. As long as Master Ma is alive, there will be no chance of being overthrown.’
If the elders kick out in the na of condemnation, and even the Thunder King leaves the Murim Alliance because of that.
As a result, if the martial arts faction loses in the war against the Demon Cult.
Where will the arrows of criticism go?
‘The entire martial forest will turn its back on the elders.’
In the end, there was only one response the elders could co up with in the current situation.
They are using this incident as an excuse to put a leash on that will limit my actions.
This was precisely the reason why he was bitterly saying that he would only now correct his mistakes and move on.
“Lord! You must listen carefully to what we say…”
“This is why I declined the position of Lord of the Demon Demons of Destruction.”
Nam Hak-geom (嵐虐劍), who was demanding an answer from Joo Hwa-baek, was cut off.
Namhakgeom’s eyebrows rose sharply.
“Is this sothing that is out of the question? Cheonan Inspector General.”
Was he angry at the rude attitude he had never shown before?
The old Taoist scolded in a low voice.
The other elders all glared at with stern expressions.
I realized what my actions ant.
Let alone actual power, in terms of nominal status, the elders were higher than .
That is why, until now, we have not interrupted the elders’ comnts during etings.
Because it was necessary to show respect for their status.
‘But from now on there is no need for that.’
There was no point in lowering oneself so that the other person would not be wary.
The hostility of the elders towards has already reached its peak.
“Do you rember what I said at the last eting when I declined the position of Demon Lord?”
“……?”
“Cheonan Inspection Departnt is basically an internal inspection organization. “If I, the head of the organization, kept wandering around, who would protect the rules of the Murim League?”
“What do you want to say?”
“Unfortunately, what we had feared beca a reality. While I was away, the Youngseong Dojo set its sights on the princess of the Beast Palace.”
“Are you talking about the incident where the princess was attacked?”
“That’s right.”
“I can’t help but admire your boldness in making speculations at official etings. “Isn’t there any evidence anywhere that the culprit who instigated the attack was Youngseong Dojo?”
“Did you just say it was speculation?”
I stiffened my expression coldly and let out a terrifying energy.
The air inside the conference room suddenly beca heavy.
Namhakgeom’s face suddenly turned white as he was hit by energy from the front.
“What are we going to do now?”
“We are just about to leave! “You’re trying to suppress your opponent by force during a eting hosted by the leader!”
“stop!”
Teuong!
Hwabaek Joo hit the table loudly.
The energy that the elders and I had been emitting toward each other was washed away by the waves that spread out from the palm of our hands.
As if he had been waiting, Commander-in-Chief Zhuge Huan cald the commotion.
So ti passes.
I raised my hand to gain the right to speak, placed my clasped hands on the table, and spoke.
“Everyone here knows this. “If sothing goes wrong with the princess’s health, her relationship with the Beast Palace will be strained.”
“…….”
“I can assure you that the repercussions will never stop at breaking the non-aggression pact.”
“Are you going to make say the sa thing over and over again? There is no evidence that the Youngseong Dojo instigated the attack…”
“You would rather cover the sky with your palm. How long are you going to keep ignoring the evidence and ignoring it? In the worst case, we may have had to deal with the enemy behind the scenes before the war against the Demonic Cult was even concluded.”
I knew it myself.
That what I am saying now is nothing but nonsense.
No matter what justification I gave, I could not justify the fact that I had arrested Elder Maeng without any evidence.
But the deterrence of those in power was bound to work in the end.
Isn’t everything like that in the world?
“The day I returned to Maeng after completing my mission, Wu Musa strongly protested to . “What general in the world would be able to go into battle and fight with peace of mind while the safety of his family is threatened?”
“…….”
“There are many people who are angry other than Warrior Wu. So people go to the battlefield and fight, risking their lives, while others do things that endanger the entire Baekdo martial arts forest. “I wonder how much of a sense of disappointnt those who contributed to this fight must have felt.”
“I sympathize and agree with what Director Cheonan said.”
It was Hwaseongdo who suddenly intervened and gave strength to my words.
Unpleasant gazes fell on her.
“The second question is whether the Youngseong Dojo actually instigated the attack. I would like to ask you at the risk of being rude. “What on earth did you guys here do while we were away?”
“Are you questioning us now?”
It was delivered in a tily manner.
It was worth visiting her in advance and asking for a favor.
The main unit headed to the battlefield together with Cheonangambu and was a unit that made enormous sacrifices during the battle.
As such, the weight attached to her words was bound to be special.
“While the main force of Cheonan Gambu was all rushed to the battlefield, they failed to properly protect the princess, an important person. I will make a hundred concessions and say that it is possible. “If it is the work of an insider rather than an outsider, it is true that it is difficult to prevent it no matter how thoroughly you prepare.”
Several elders cleared their throats with uncomfortable expressions.
I couldn’t help but feel reassured by her deliberately using the word ‘insider’ with emphasis.
“The problem is reactive. “There is nothing we can do about the incident that has already occurred, but wouldn’t it have been possible to clean it up?”
“…….”
“Increase the princess’s escort, uncover the identity of the attackers, find out who was behind them, and punish them. Standard and reliable response. “Why didn’t you do what you should have done?”
I whistled to myself.
From the looks of it, Hwaseongdo also seed to have made up his mind and sharpened his sword.
If you think about it, she was one of the people who would have been most enraged by the atrocities committed by the Youngseong Dojo.
Because the Suzaku unit led by her suffered the most damage in the last battle, next to the Changgung sword unit of the Namgung family.
‘He says what I need just when I need it.’
Because it was the words of Jujakdaeju, not anyone else, he was able to silence all the elders.
If I had said the sa thing, the focus of the story would have been lost.
I raised my hand again to get the floor and spoke.
“I will tell you clearly right here.”
“…….”
“Cheonan Inspector General is an organization designed to act in tis like this in the first place. “Whether the target is a common believer or an elder, anyone who commits a mistake is simply a sinner.”
