Episode 514
Power and Wall (7)
If you say something like this in Baekdo, anyone will take it as a provocation.
In fact, it was actually a provocation. However, provocations that were not provocations by Yeon Ho-jeong were so common in Heukdo that they were as natural as breathing.
The corners of Hwang Seok-tae’s mouth rose slightly. Since he was a person whose expression never changed, that alone seemed to change his impression completely.
“I was curious how the Baekdo Saennim tricked the Vice Lord, but he had a pretty good plan.”
“Am I jealous?”
Hwang Seok-tae’s eyes grew cold.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“They say that if a woman harbors resentment, there will be frost even in the middle of summer. But the resentment of a jealous man is strong enough to melt the snow in the middle of winter.”
“….”
“I’m sick of men’s jealousy. “I recommend that you at least try wagging your tail in front of your owner when you think your partner is disapproving.”
This provocation was so fierce that it could not even be compared to the first provocation. Even the loss rate was enough to make a soft whistle.
However, Hwang Seok-tae’s expression did not change.
“Your snout-teasing skills are at the level of a strong man from Seongcheon.”
“If you mean the same thing, please express that it has many advantages.”
Yeonhojeong was extremely relaxed.
Hwang Seok-tae didn’t like the other person’s leisure.
“You fooled the vice-lord once.”
Hwang Seok-tae remembered. No, all the senior members of the Mukryong Club knew.
Yeon Ho-jeong is the guy who came to Mukryongbu to do some dirty work. In other words, it means that he is an untrustworthy person.
In particular, for Hwang Seok-tae, who had strong loyalty to Yangcheon, the existence of Yeonhojeong was like purulence flowing from a rotten wound.
“It doesn’t matter to me whether the Vice Lord forgives you or not. “I don’t approve of you.”
“do whatever you want. By the way…”
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
“Won’t you accept my spear? Do you really want to evaluate my military power with your subordinates at the forefront?”
“….”
“If not, please bring the weapon pinned over there. “If you don’t want to be embarrassed in front of your subordinates, now is your chance.”
The provocation was going too far.
Tsutsutsu.
Murderous energy gushed out from Hwang Seok-tae’s body.
A strange look appeared in Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.
‘It’s pretty good.’
Although it was an extremely beastly lifestyle, it was also perfectly refined.
You can understand just by looking at life. Hwang Seok-tae is a strong warrior and a capable master. If you know how to refine your life to that level, regardless of the strength or weakness of your force, you will be able to keep your cool in any situation.
To a warrior, coolness is a virtue. Hwang Seok-tae will be strong.
“In my heart, I want to personally destroy your foolish arrogance.”
“Does this mean you won’t fight?”
“Whatever it is, you will be staying with us for a while. My acceptance of you is a different matter. Prove yourself in front of your subordinates.”
Yeon Ho-jeong made a strange expression.
‘He’s a unique guy.’
It was clear that he was a man who strictly managed his subordinates. Rather than a soft and friendly boss, it would be a hard boss who values discipline and ensures that punishment is meted out to others.
In general, such people are weak to provocation and stingy with insults. But Hwang Seok-tae did not do that.
Since we will be staying together, we are told to prove ourselves in front of the people we will be staying with.
It was a difficult thought to make.
“Whatever happens is fine. But one thing is wrong.”
“…?”
“I have no intention of staying and training with you.”
Hwang Seok-tae frowned.
“what?”
“The position I was given was that of a special deputy. It’s a position that seems attractive, but in the end it doesn’t do much. However, one of my few powers is to take charge of your training.”
“What?!”
“For the time being, I will set the training schedule and process for the Yongah Iron Team.”
Hahaha!
A terrifying energy wave emanated from Hwang Seok-tae’s body.
“That’s nonsense.”
It was a voice that was being suppressed. It was a sound so full of anger that it made me feel sad just hearing it.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“Didn’t that white paper guy tell you?”
“I am the leader of the Iron Team. The training of the headquarters is handled by me and the vice leader. “It is my power.”
“So be it. However, as long as you are a specially appointed deputy, your authority is mine.”
Yeon Ho-jeong pointed toward the Mukryongbu with his chin.
“If in doubt, go directly to Buju and check.”
Hwang Seok-tae’s cheeks trembled.
No matter how untrustworthy he may be, at least he won’t lie about this. It was a question of intelligence before character. There is no way the vice-owner would trust someone who lies if he is immediately found out.
But I couldn’t believe it. No, I didn’t want to believe it.
“A guy who doesn’t know anything about the Iron Team is in charge of training? Do you think it makes sense?”
“So I have to show you.”
“…?!”
“I will prove my power to you. “You must prove to me the power of the Iron Team.”
“…this guy.”
I almost had a seizure for a moment. Hwang Seok-tae was truly angry.
And it was Yeon Ho-jeong’s prayer that prevented his explosion.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face suddenly changed to an expressionless face, and an unusual prayer began to flow from his body.
Whoa!
If Hwang Seok-tae’s prayer was a cold wave, Yeon Ho-jeong’s prayer was a red-hot steel.
That fearsome prayer soon became a majesty that overwhelmed his son-in-law and began to bind Hwang Seok-tae.
‘…!!’
Hwang Seok-tae’s expression suddenly changed.
I can understand just by praying. This guy in front of me is a real powerhouse. Even the level of simple martial arts was far beyond him.
I knew the opponent was strong, but I didn’t expect it to be this strong. I thought it was a reputation mixed with the bravado of Baekdo Sannim who like to exaggerate things.
But no. Yeon Ho-jeong’s prayer, which I saw before my eyes, was so powerful that I thought the rumors had been reduced.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled coldly.
“It’s an order from above. Resistance is death.”
“….”
“If you want to stop it at the risk of death, run to Buju right now.”
Hwang Seok-tae’s eyes wavered.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked towards the east.
“By the way, I heard that the Iron Team has a thousand members, but did they only invite about a hundred people?”
There was a group of people running from afar, kicking up dust.
More than a hundred horseback horses that shake the earth. Even from a distance, I could feel the powerful divine power of the horse spurring the ground.
‘That’s amazing.’
Looking at the Yonga Iron Foundation, I can’t help but compare it to Tangma County, among those in Uijeong County.
‘At least when it comes to supplies, the Iron Knights win by a landslide.’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
It was visible from afar. The members are wearing horse armor as well as light armor.
If the armor is heavy, no matter how good the horse is, it cannot run at that speed. In other words, it is an alloy made from high-strength iron as light as possible.
Although Tangma Army’s alloy was excellent, it was nothing compared to theirs. The vitality of the horses was different.
After a while.
Heeheeheehee!
The horseman who was running from the front grabbed the reins. The horse let out a terrifying roar and raised its front paws high.
Faba Park!
With exquisite horsemanship like ghosts, they all stopped speaking and simultaneously came down to the ground and bowed their heads.
“The Iron Team meets Lord Dan!”
“See you Lord Dan!”
There is surprising spirit in the resounding voice.
Hwang Seok-tae nodded.
“I had a hard time coming.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Hwang Seok-tae.
Hwang Seok-tae must have regained his composure and spoke in a blunt voice.
“Other units left for training two days away from here. “The only unit training nearby is the Cheolgi Unit.”
“I see.”
Yeon Ho-jeong was honestly impressed.
“That’s amazing. “I was properly trained.”
Even though I was receiving an order to return while I was training for a while, I did not waver in my prayers. On the contrary, perhaps because they were undergoing sharp training, the energy waves coming out as one were surprisingly ferocious.
Hwang Seok-tae said.
“One province.”
“Yes, Danju.”
“Check the powerlessness of interest. If necessary, the entire community can step forward.”
Ildaeju bowed his head.
“I follow your orders.”
No one wonders who Yeon Ho-jeong is or why he gives such orders.
Orders given are obeyed immediately. It was a real military unit that lived and died by orders, which was different from the free-spirited army of death.
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“This is what happens in the end.”
Hwang Seok-tae’s eyes grew cold.
“Of the ten units of the Iron Guard, one unit boasts the most aggressive force. Of course, it is considered the best in the Mukryongbu.”
“Okay, I see you.”
“The Vice Lord’s orders are absolute. But we have our own way.”
thud!
Hwang Seok-tae hit the floor with his foot.
Teeeeee!
One of the many long spears that were stuck in the distance flew out and was caught in Hwang Seok-tae’s hand.
He threw the spear at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong lightly picked up the spear and swung it gently.
‘It’s a good window.’
Although it was not at the level of being called a new weapon, it was clear that it was the work of a master. Good steel was used, the strength and elasticity were appropriate, and the balance was also very good.
“Forget Baekdo’s ways. The secret dance of the black sword ignores life and death. “If you don’t attack with the intent to kill, you will die.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“I like it.”
“Then…”
“I understand what you are saying is that it doesn’t matter if all your subordinates die from my spear.”
Hwang Seok-tae’s eyes sparkled.
But his voice was still hard and controlled.
“Those who do not know the weight of victory cannot join the Iron Team. From the moment I and they were together, everyone put their lives on the line.”
“good.”
Buuuuung! Buuuuung!
Yeon Ho-jeong grabbed the middle of the spear and turned it sharply, aiming the spear at the entire village.
Tsutsutsutsu.
Ildaeju lowered his posture and held the spear with both hands.
Pae-yul and Kang-ryang retreated to one side. The match has already begun.
The atmosphere was heightened.
A coldly burning feast of life. The energy of Yeonga Shindan was swirling at the tip of Yeonhojeong’s spear.
How much time has passed like that?
Pop. Pop.
Sweat fell from Ildaeju’s forehead and soaked the floor.
Hwang Seok-tae’s eyebrows twitched.
‘what?’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s life was definitely amazing. However, the area around the area was not weak enough to be scared of living like this.
‘Are you sweating?’
That wasn’t all.
Slurp.
My hands are sweating as I hold the window bar tightly, so I hold it again and again.
It was a look I had never seen before from a regular person. He was the most skilled fighter among the Iron Knights.
Hwang Seok-tae turned his gaze to Yeon Ho-jeong.
‘What are you doing…?’
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong laughed.
“I changed my mind.”
The atmosphere, which was about to get heated up, suddenly became cold.
“Prove your strength against a single unit… this is not it.”
“What do you want to say?”
“That Daju b*stard has already realized my powerlessness. “And their subordinates.”
Hwang Seok-tae turned his head.
Yeon Ho-jeong was right. Before we knew it, more than a hundred horses were retreating back little by little without even being able to trot. He was overwhelmed by Yeonhojeong’s speculation.
‘what?!’
Hwang Seok-tae couldn’t understand.
Are you saying that he was putting pressure on all of them without even feeling it? How on earth?!
Yeon Ho-jeong lowered the window.
“I have proven my strength, now I will see the strength of your Iron Team.”
I want to see the power of the Iron Team, not the Iron Team.
Hwang Seok-tae’s face distorted.
“What bullshit…!”
It was then.
Quaaaang!
With a huge explosion of alcohol, Yeon Ho-jeong rushed towards Hwang Seok-tae.
Hwang Seok-tae’s eyes widened as if they were torn.
‘this!’
He quickly pulled out a saber from his belt.
but.
‘…?!’
The long spear that was fired wriggled like a snake in an instant and went over the blade of the saber.
Fuuuuuuu!
Balgyeong Hwang Seok-tae, who exploded at the tip of his spear, unknowingly missed the sword.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s posture lowered.
Bye!
Hwang Seok-tae’s face distorted. At that moment, my legs lost strength and I fell to my knees.
The moment when you quickly stand up and try to respond to the attack.
Burbubbubbuk!
I don’t even know how or what I got hit with.
Hwang Seok-tae almost screamed without even realizing it. After receiving a blow to his entire upper body, his body automatically slumped forward.
and.
chuck!
The cold spear blade touched the nape of Hwang Seok-tae’s neck as he slumped forward.
Yeon Ho-jeong said to Ildaeju.
“I will give you twenty-four hours. Call all the remaining troops and gather them together.”
In an instant, the position changed.
From now on, it was Yeonhojeong’s turn to see the power of the Iron Team.
