Episode 809
A tiger that does not live in a burrow (3)
A look of confusion spread across the faces of the people gathered at the restaurant.
It is said that no matter how ugly a child is, the father will kill the son himself.
It is really difficult to find cases like this even in Heukdo. It was especially difficult to find cases like this because it was a black island that did not strictly follow the law in the first place.
I will kill him because he did not receive forgiveness from Sobuju of the Mukryongbu.
On the surface, it seemed that way. But the reality was completely different.
King Yeon Ho-jeong, the owner of Sobu, was an expert of the world whose military strength reached Seongcheon. If you are determined and use your hands, even Noklim side dish wine won’t be able to last longer than 3 seconds.
Moreover, since he is a person who is favored by Lord Mukryong, there is no point in using unnecessary tricks here.
If you can’t save your son, it’s better to kill him with your own hands and get sympathy.
Furthermore, public opinion toward Yeonhojeong will not improve much. To begin with, Yeon Ho-jeong was not from Heukdo and had only recently become Sobuju.
If you insult the bandit king of Green Forest just because you got a small position, it would be bad for Sobuju himself.
If Sobuju knows this, he can save his son’s life, and if he does not know it, he can kill his son himself to preserve his position.
You have nothing to lose no matter what choice you make. You may lose a son, but if your son is someone who always causes trouble, it might be better to not have him. That was Jo Dong-guk’s judgment.
And there was no way Yeonhojeong of the world could not have read Jo Dong-guk’s intention.
“What a brave move. “I didn’t know you would make such a decision to kill your son yourself.”
“If Lord Sobu doesn’t forgive me, this guy will eventually die. In that case, it would be better to send it to your father.”
Still, humans are humans, so I couldn’t help but feel that my voice was shaking a little.
Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.
“You are truly a great person.”
“….”
“It will be truly reassuring to have someone as resourceful and good at managing things as the head lender in the future of the dark island.”
Jo Dong-guk’s eyes trembled.
“…Thank you for the compliment.”
“But.”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“Even if the laws of the world were strict, how could a father command his son to be killed?”
Flash!
A ray of cool light flashed.
and.
Tuk! Fuwaaaaak!
Jo Pil-do’s head fell and a large amount of fresh blood spurted out.
“omg!”
The faces of the warriors watching turned pale. The same was true for Jo Dong-guk.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his hands. Although Jo Pil-do’s head was blown off with a single blow, his expression did not waver at all.
“In my heart, I wanted to tear him limb from limb and kill him, but after seeing the face of the head lender, I let him go cleanly.”
“…!!”
Jo Dong-guk’s face turned bright red.
Even if it is out of sight, a son is still a son. He went out to kill him himself, but still, his relative’s head was blown off before his eyes.
His son died not even by his own hands, but by the hands of the successor to the Mukryongbu, who came from nowhere. The difference was much bigger than expected.
Grrrr.
Jo Dong-guk’s hand holding the bakdo trembled slightly.
The trachea, which had been writhing unsteadily, became extremely rough. However, seeing that he did not show any intention of living until the end, his patience was at a level that was beyond imagination.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Jo Dong-guk with a cold gaze.
“….”
A breathtaking silence filled the restaurant.
After a while.
“Indeed…”
His throat was a little tight, but Jo Dong-guk took a deep breath to calm himself down.
“I am truly sorry. “I will never forget what happened today for the future of Heukdo.”
It was a strange thing to say.
It can be interpreted to mean that I will never confront you again, and it can also be interpreted to mean that I will not forget today’s humiliation.
Only Jo Dong-guk knows what kind of feelings he had among them.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
Even though the father killed the son in front of his eyes, his smile was bright.
“Let’s work hard for the Black Island from now on.”
Yeon Ho-jeong took control. My head did not bow.
Jo Dong-guk bowed his head and gave power.
“It’s an honor.”
With that greeting, Jo Dong-guk turned around.
“let’s go!”
His voice as he gave orders to Jo Pil-do’s guards was quite harsh.
The big guys looked at Yeon Ho-jeong and followed Jo Dong-guk.
It was then.
“Oh, by the way.”
Jo Dong-guk’s steps stopped.
Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.
“I heard a strange rumor. Can you confirm it, general creditor?”
“…What rumor are you talking about?”
It was at that moment that red flames began to flash in Yeon Ho-jeong’s pupils.
Flash!
In an instant, the whirling fireworks took over the entire restaurant.
“Huh!”
Everyone’s faces turned pale.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s way of living was not simply living for the sake of killing. His life was filled with a mighty majesty that only those who had ruled over all people could dare to display.
Startled, Jo Dong-guk unconsciously turned and raised his sword.
‘…!!’
Jo Dong-guk’s face turned white. Before he knew it, Yeonhojeong had arrived right in front of him.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s left hand grabbed Jo Dong-guk’s sword.
Cheeeeeeeee!
Jo Dong-guk’s blade instantly turned red.
“Ugh!”
Unable to overcome the extreme heat, Jo Dong-guk unconsciously let go of his knife and stumbled. Before he knew it, his palms were covered in ugly burns.
Jo Dong-guk shouted hysterically.
“Sobuju! “What are you doing?”
Cheeeeeeeeeeeee!!
The main firer that reached the highest temperature in an instant.
The bakdo, which had been emitting a reddish glow, gradually changed its shape. The blade began to melt due to the extreme heat.
Yeon Ho-jeong clenched his fist.
Tuk! thud! Chi-ik!
The torn bakdo, as soft as mud, fell to the ground, emitting thick smoke.
Yeon Ho-jeong opened his hand again. Then, part of the blade held in his hand dripped down like highly viscous mud.
Shock appeared on Jo Dong-guk’s face.
He has mastered such incredible martial arts skills that he can melt a hard-forged blade like mud.
It was truly a force that gave goosebumps. It was literally crazy to respond to someone with such power.
“I heard that some of the leaders of Green Forest go to villages where taxes are paid and repeatedly hunt people and rape women for fun.”
“…!!”
“Even though I was a bandit, don’t you think I’ve crossed the line?”
“So Sobuju!”
Whoa whoa!
Jo Dong-guk’s face turned red.
“Kuweeeek!”
Jo Dong-guk, who was hit in the solar plexus by a bullet-like angle, collapsed on the spot and vomited blood.
What was shocking was the fact that he failed to react at all. A person of Jo Dong-guk’s level would have had the ability to reflexively withdraw his hand as soon as he received a blow, but he fell down in the same posture as he was hit.
This was because the powerful experience contained in Yeon Ho-jeong’s feet had a strong impact on his Danjeon and nerves.
“Is dignity a big deal?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes looking down at Jo Dong-guk changed.
And the way he speaks.
“A person’s dignity is revealed only when there are minimum behavioral patterns and rules that a person must follow.”
“Oops!”
“It’s not about petty power and position!”
The entire restaurant trembled at Yeon Ho-jeong’s words.
“For those who live without despising the minimum that must be maintained, dignity opens that solid door.”
“…!”
“But what about you guys?”
Cheeeeeek!
A bloody black-gray haze rose from Yeon Ho-jeong’s body.
“As a minimum token of your sincerity in protecting the village, you have received taxes from them. “It is easy to predict that it is a violent and one-sided relationship, but if it was a contract, I should have been satisfied with it.”
“Wow! Cough!”
“If a dog that protects a flock of sheep suddenly starts eating the sheep like a wolf, how can it be called a guard dog?”
Jo Dong-guk gritted his teeth.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s life pouring down from above was real. He was truly ready to kill himself.
“Aaaah!”
Jo Dong-guk makes a surprise attack with his fists while shouting blood-soaked words.
Pow!
His surprise attack failed so vainly. The fist was caught in Yeon Ho-jeong’s hand.
The veins on the back of Yeon Ho-jeong’s hand bulged.
Quad deuk!
“Aaaah!”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s feet moved.
Whoa!
Jo Dong-guk, who was hit with a dart, could not even scream.
Pussssss!
Jo Dong-guk’s skin lost its elasticity in an instant.
The dantian was broken, and the internal energy I had accumulated so far began to drain away at an alarming rate. The powerful penetrator shattered his body in one blow.
Those who saw the scene were so shocked that they felt like they were going out of their minds.
The status of Homa Jo Dong-guk, the head of Green Forest in Heukdo, was truly enormous. Excluding a few people, such as Lord Mukryong, they can be said to have the highest level of hierarchy.
However, a person with such a high rank lost his power so vainly. It was a shocking sight.
“A group is just a group. There is no distinction between black and white. “The point of view is different and the way of life is different, but is it worth living like a beast if you call it black and like a hypocrite if you call it white?”
“….”
“The reason you have a harpoon in my hand right now is not because I did anything wrong. You destroyed the reputation of the Black Sword. “He was so busy that he couldn’t even take care of his children, and when he got tired of trampling on the beautiful girls he kidnapped from all over the country, he killed them and buried them?”
Jo Dong-guk, who had lost his energy, looked shocked.
Even in the green forest, only a few people knew about it. Yeon Ho-jeong knows that.
“Cough! “Please don’t frame me!”
Although he had lost his energy, there was urgency in his voice.
“What on earth evidence…!”
“There is a lot of evidence. “I also have it, and before it was delivered to me, it also went to the Vice Lord.”
“…!!”
Yes.
If there is one thing that gives blackness an edge over whiteness, it is information power.
Of course, if it encompasses the entire midfield, it would be a hundred years old. However, in the area to which it belongs, the information power of the black sword surpasses the white sword.
“How long did you think you could fool me?”
“Even if that’s the case, Sobuju has no right to get involved in what happens in my territory!”
Quack!
“Aaaah!”
Jo Dong-guk, with both legs broken, rolled on the floor.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face distorted.
“The sound of a dog barking comes from its pierced snout.”
“Ugh!”
“What authority do you have to do such dirty things? “If you’ve lived like that, you shouldn’t feel wronged even if you’re criticized by the lowest person in the world.”
“If you kill me, the entire green forest will turn around!”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“do not worry. “He is a very greedy but sane person who is looking for your position. If you look for him, one will come out.”
Despair appeared on Jo Dong-guk’s face.
“Both the father and the son are equally trash.”
“Save me…!”
Quack!
Yeon Ho-jeong’s foot crushed Jo Dong-guk’s head.
“…!”
A terrible silence surrounded the restaurant.
Yeon Ho-jeong said while looking around.
“I don’t want you to live a righteous life. I am busy with my own life, so is there any need to help others? “We are not such saints or saints.”
“….”
“There is no need to live like a chivalrous member of the Baekdo political faction. But at least live like a human being. The black path I pursue begins right there.”
