Episode 94: The World’s Famous Iron Man (2)
Now all that was left was to negotiate the price.
Yu Seol asked with a nervous expression.
“how much is this?”
“I can’t ask for anything more than having the opportunity to produce a new recruit. However, according to the rules of the Iron House, you cannot avoid receiving compensation, so please set the value yourself.”
The idea was to pay as much as you want to give.
What is the importance of wealth to an old man who has not much ti left to live?
It was simply because the principle of neutrality maintained by the iron head would be broken if compensation was not received.
“Then can I just give you one nyang?”
Cheolwoonbi, the matriarch of Cheolwoongbang.
As the greatest master in the central region nodded without hesitation, Yu Seol looked at his grandfather with excitent. It was to send a ssage.
– We got it!
– guy. These are items that will now beco family heirlooms, but isn’t the value being underestimated too much? If the heirloom made by lting down the Fire Dragon Spear were worth a single coin, our ancestors would co out of their graves.
-Grandpa, you don’t have any money.
You even know the circumstances of your own pockets. His sharp eyesight was unusual.
However, Yu Jin-san did not co here without any thought.
– I don’t have it, but you have a valuable treasure.
– My treasure…?
When the grandfather nodded, Yu Seol’s expression beca gloomy.
Yamyeongju, a gift from Shaolin Temple.
This gem, which shines brighter the darker it is, was dozens of tis more expensive than gold of the sa size.
– I’ll get you sothing better later. Just calculate it with that.
– Hmph…
Yuseol’s hand trembled as he rummaged around in my arms and escaped. It would be a waste to spit out his treasure, Yamyeongju.
But there was no other way.
“…I’ll give you this.”
Yamyeongju was worth enough to purchase dozens of expensive Iron Guard weapons.
As expected, Cheolwoonbi seed satisfied. This was due to the fact that his skills, not his values, were recognized.
“I will risk my life to create the masterpiece of a lifeti, so please trust and leave it to .”
He could feel his heart pounding at the superhuman sensation of the rumor.
My heart was pounding uncontrollably.
He imdiately started preparing for work, as if he didn’t want to waste any ti.
Even his solemnity was visible in his back as he headed toward the furnace, clutching the Fire Dragon God Spear.
And the remaining craftsn looked at each other with a mixture of pride and worry.
“Uncle, this is the first ti I’ve seen my grandfather on fire like that.”
“It has to be that way. Even if you die now, you will have no regrets.”
“But is it okay to blindly lt Jin-gyu’s spear? Do you know who these kids are?…”
“Since when did our iron head pick out custors and receive requests? “I just want to respect my father’s decision.”
And it was the principle of the head of the iron family not to ask about the client’s history.
Since they do not know the information that the head of the family received from Yu Jin-san, they are worried about what might happen.
But all it took was a little worry. The reason their reaction was calm was because they had a part of faith.
This is because Iron House, which regularly presented weapons to the country, had a strong background as a bureaucrat.
At that ti, Cheolwoong’s gaze turned to Yuseol again.
“This is the first ti I’ve seen my father on fire like that. “If you wait a little longer, a very nice window will be completed.”
“Wow… I can’t wait to see you. “How long do I have to wait?”
Cheolwoong answered with a voice full of pride.
“In this world, my father is called by the stage na ‘God Hand.’ It ans you have the hand of God. “I have never failed to refine it so far, so it will probably be completed within ten days.”
In order to create a luxury product, the process of lting and remanufacturing must be repeated countless tis until the slting is successful. This is because even small errors are not tolerated.
The period that Cheolwoong predicted was short enough to be close to a miracle.
However, when a child waits for a gift, one day is like a year.
“Ten days…”
Yu Seol didn’t know. If he, who has the hands of God, can achieve it in 10 days, it would take an ordinary craftsman decades to achieve it.
And Cheolwoong interpreted Yuseol’s mutterings with a different aning.
“Yes, it only takes ten days. This is possible because he can make quite a few luxury items in half a day. “Anyway, it would be better to stay here and wait until the window is completed.”
How could I spend 10 boring days in such a remote place?
However, it is impossible to leave the heirloom and leave the place.
Yuseol, who received information from Mt. Yujin, reluctantly nodded.
“…all right.”
One of the craftsn took the lead and showed the children where to stay.
“Follow this way. “It won’t be inconvenient to stay for a few days.”
Perhaps because it was a family with specialized skills, the structure of the manor was a bit different from that of the Murim family.
There were no large, grand buildings, but small, neatly built pavilions were clustered together.
At that ti, the hill of Yujin Mountain, which I was slowly walking behind, turned to the left.
This is because he felt soone’s gaze staring at him.
“…?”
A girl with her hair in two pigtails was sticking out her face through the slightly open door of a small building
on the left .
The child who was looking at Mt. Eugene blushed when their eyes t and quickly hid.
bang-!
‘He’s a funny guy.’
The father-in-law who was leading the way laughed at the sight.
“She is brother Cheolwoong’s daughter. “You better be careful because you’re a troublemaker and no one can stop you.”
At that mont, Jinsan Yu told a joke to his granddaughter walking next to him.
– Just like you.
– no. I don’t cause trouble.
– When you were a baby. I don’t think I rember peeing on my grandfather’s back and crying for food.
– I never did that!
Yu Seol pursed his lips and vehently denied it.
The smile never left Yu Jin-san’s face, as if he was having a lot of fun teasing his granddaughter.
After laughing quietly for a while, he cald down and asked.
– Why don’t you just beco friends with that guy?
– No, I don’t need friends.
– why? It’s fun to hang out with your peers.
– I will only play with my grandpa.
– Still, it’s reassuring to have at least one friend with whom you can share your joys and sorrows.
Yu Jin-san looked like he couldn’t understand his granddaughter’s unwillingness to listen.
However, it was impossible to force soone to make friends.
After a while, we arrived at our destination and the craftsman who guided us opened the door.
Although it was only a cozy room, it seed to be sufficient for two children.
“Stay here. “I’ll tell my aunts, so if you need anything, co to the pavilion you see over there.”
“Thank you.”
When the person in charge of guidance disappeared, Yoo Seol looked around in the distance and asked.
“Can I go sowhere?”
Are you saying that you are suddenly going sowhere alone?
A look of puzzlent appeared on Jin-san Yu’s face.
“suddenly?”
“I want to train…”
It was as expected. Since I haven’t been able to properly practice for a while, I can’t help but feel itchy.
There was a sparsely populated adow and a flat mountain not far away, so there would be ample space for training.
It seed more aningful than waiting for the window to be completed here.
“Instead, you should not go far away and do it in a place where no one is watching.”
“okay. “I will learn the Hundred Steps Divine Fist and show it to my grandfather.”
Yu Jin-san asked, pretending to be surprised.
“Are you really going to test your power on again?”
“Hi-Hi.”
Seeing that he didn’t say no made him nervous, but the grandfather wanted his only granddaughter to look pretty no matter what she did.
Jin-san Yu, who was stroking the child’s head, was shocked.
Because soone was peeking from behind again.
“…?”
It was the kid from a little while ago.
He hid behind the pavilion and watched, but when his eyes t, he quickly hid.
I felt uncomfortable, but there was no reason to worry about the child.
He waved his hand at the grandfather as if he wasn’t really interested in the rumors.
“I’ll co back then.”
“OK. “If you get hungry while training, co back right away.”
“huh!”
Yu Seol seed to be in a hurry and quickly disappeared.
The small shadow that flew like a bird over the roof of the pavilion suddenly disappeared from sight.
Yu Jin-san, who was left alone, went into the room and lay down.
He clasped his hands behind his head and thought for a mont.
‘It’s a hundred treasures divine power… It would be useful if you learn it.’
I had already taught my granddaughter all of the family’s martial arts skills, but there was nothing suitable in martial arts.
Most of the fighting techniques were learned on one’s own through sparring with Hohyeon’s warriors, but
it would be of great help if one learned the Baekbo Shinken, which could be used both at close range and at a long distance.
I wanted to follow along and learn it myself, but soone had to stay and watch the process of making heirlooms.
‘It’s not easy to just wait like this.’
Is it because I am alone for a long ti? Ti seed to stop and boredom increased.
He, who had been lying down silently, got up from his seat.
His steps were heading back to the blacksmith shop. The idea was to relieve boredom by providing so eye candy.
bang-! bang-! Tatang-!
Even though the sun was slowly setting, the loud noise continued.
If I got too close, I could be disturbed, so I sat down sowhere far away.
‘Is this what the famous people look like? ‘All of them are amazing.’
The tools they held seed to have souls in them.
It was when I was just staring at it without thinking.
Soone ca and sat down next to Jin-san Yu.
It was the girl with her hair split into two pigtails.
“what is your na?”
At most, the child appeared to be around the age of my granddaughter.
A guy like Tottori speaks informally from the first ti he ets .
This would have been sothing I couldn’t have even dread of before the anti-romanization process.
“mountain.”
“San? My na is Aryeon. Cheol Aryeon. “I’m eight years old. How old are you?”
It is impossible to explain it in detail to a child who does not know what anti-rohwandong is.
Yu Jin-san looked sowhere else and muttered as if he was annoyed.
“I don’t know exactly because I forgot about it at so point. “It’s probably about ten tis more than you.”
“Fuhi! fun.”
Aryeon thought it was a joke and giggled as if it was funny.
Seeing that, Yu Jin-san sighed and waved his hands.
“Grandpa, I’m not old enough to play gas with you. “Go away and play.”
At that mont, Aryeon clutched her stomach and burst into laughter.
“Fuhihi. you are really funny “Where are you from?”
“I ca from a very far away place.”
“But who is that guy from earlier?”
“….”
It felt like I was being interrogated.
Why on earth are you bothering so much when I don’t even know you in person?
At that ti, Aryeon put her hand on his shoulder and urged him.
“Say it quickly. That girl who looked pretty earlier is your sister, right? yes?”
“You don’t have to know.”
“Then maybe…?”
Eugene San looked around.
I’m thinking about running away before it gets even more annoying.
But even if I left this place, I had no place to go.
As Aryeon continued to shake his shoulders, he reluctantly answered.
“Think what you want.”
“I knew it.”
“what…?”
Aryeon stood up from her seat and placed both hands on her waist.
After glaring at him for a long ti, he turned his head and walked away.
Yu Jin-san shook his head as he watched the child retreat as if he was upset.
“What a strange guy.”
