Episode 961
Flames covering the sky (1)
“…!”
The young man’s eyes became strange as he heard the emperor’s words.
No emotional disturbance was seen. Rather, he seemed to have a little interest in the emperor’s words.
On the other hand, the discipline of the 1,000 troops excluding him changed drastically.
Whoa!
Intense heat spreading in all directions.
The dust on the floor scattered in a circle. The sight of blowing away dust with just air waves without even touching it seemed very mysterious and dangerous.
Meanwhile, smiles spread across the faces of the military officers camped within the walls and gates.
The emperor, who had never seen his face in person, came directly to the march of an invader whose military prowess was god-like, and spoke as if admonishing them.
This situation was very refreshing to them. A strong confidence builds in me that I can win any battle with the emperor.
“Welcome.”
The young man smiled.
The bright blue eyes and shadowy eyelids that are deep beneath the eyebrows overwhelm the viewer.
“It was worth crossing that long road. “I heard that people become addicted to luxury and pleasure, avoid romantic relationships, corrupt their natural talents, and become exhausted both physically and mentally. But seeing and hearing in person is so different.”
The emperor looked at the young man in silence for a moment.
How much time has passed?
“I have one question.”
The young man tilted his head at the emperor’s words.
“Any questions?”
“Are you the one who sent Chief Inspector Wooheon?”
Qu Jing glanced at the emperor.
That treacherous traitor who would have no problem even if he were torn to death was from the Shinhwa Church. Of course, it was a three piece sent directly by the head of the Shinhwa cult, so why are you asking such a question?
Surprisingly, the young man’s answer was completely different from what Gok-gyeong expected.
“Who is Taegam Wooheon?”
The emperor’s eyes deepened.
“I’m not the one you sent. “As expected.”
Gok-gyeong was inwardly surprised.
‘You expected it?’
It was to overthrow the emperor of the world.
No matter how great the Shinhwa Cult is, there is no way that such a decision would not have been made by the cult leader. Even if the decision had been made from below, reports on it would have been constantly received.
However, the young man who was expected to be the head of the Shinhwa cult did not know who Taegam Woo-heon was, and the emperor expected that the person who sent Sejak was not the head of the Shinhwa cult.
‘how?’
The young man seemed to have the same doubts.
“How did you expect that?”
“Do you want to talk? Or do you want a fight?”
“….”
“If you wanted to talk, like I said, all you had to do was send a letter.”
fight.
It may be a flashy word, but hearing the word ‘fight’ come out of the emperor’s mouth somehow made the current situation feel very trivial.
The young man chuckled.
“Should we stop with the useless conversation and get to the point?”
“The idea is to make your course of action clear. “Like you said, didn’t you come a long way?”
“That is correct.”
“I heard you wanted to see me. “The fact that he came to me in person instead of sending me a letter or something, and found me first without any engagement, seems like he has something to say after seeing me in person.”
“….”
“Is what Jim said right?”
The young man, who was looking up at the emperor, slowly closed his eyes.
A young man who closed his eyes in silence. There was no answer, but the emperor could tell that he was gathering his thoughts.
After a while.
“Go back.”
At the young man’s words, the thousand believers lined up opened a path to the left and right and fought with all their might.
Very natural appearances. The reverence is clearly evident. It was as if he was dealing with God, not the head of a religion.
The believers who showed their respect with all their might stood up and retired in a polite manner.
‘That’s incredible.’
Geum Heon-tae’s face hardened slightly.
‘They are properly trained. They are not stupid people who are obsessed with cults. Before they were fanatics, they were obviously elites who were thoroughly trained to rival the imperial army.’
The 1,000 troops fell back by as many as a hundred pieces in just a moment.
The men holding palanquins and the warriors holding flags remained the same, but it was difficult to say that their will to fight was still alive.
The young man looked at the emperor and said.
“Come down.”
Geum Heon-tae’s face distorted.
“That brute!”
It was then.
Flash!
A ray of light seemed to flash from the young man’s fingers, and before he knew it, a small hole had opened in the castle wall.
Clap. thud!
Geum Heon-tae’s eyes wavered.
A small ray of light passed by, and his waistband came loose and fell to the floor. Naturally, the general’s sword that was hanging on the waist belt also rolled around on the floor.
It was a fearsome martial art.
Exactly, only the straps of Geum Heon-tae’s belt were erased. And Geumheontae only became aware of the enemy’s attack at the moment when the hot and cool light penetrated the castle wall and erased the straps of his belt.
‘Unbelievable.’
Martial arts beyond imagination.
It was a light move, but it was a martial arts attack that uprooted the will to fight back.
If that light had flown to his chest or forehead, Geum Heon-tae would have died that way. It is said that a master who is evaluated as having martial skills higher than that of a master of the old school could die without even lifting a finger.
Phew!
The blowing wind feels particularly cold.
The young man did not even look at Geum Heon-tae. It was a long way away, but everyone could see it.
“Come down.”
The young man repeated the same words once more.
The emperor, who had been looking at the young man for a while, smiled and said.
“Please bring a soft chair in front of the author’s ten chapters.”
“your majesty!”
Geum Heon-tae knelt down.
“No, that’s not true! “The leader of the cult is a man of amazing martial arts, and could easily end up in Your Majesty’s body…!”
Gok-gyeong interrupted Geum Heon-tae.
“Defense captain.”
“…?!”
“Are you planning to reject His Majesty’s command?”
Geum Heon-tae looked up at Gok-gyeong in surprise.
Gok-gyeong spoke in a cold voice.
“The enemy is in front of you. “Don’t you dare damage the majesty of His Majesty the Emperor.”
“Gog Escort!”
“I will be by your Majesty’s side.”
As the leader of the imperial palace guard, this was something that should never be tolerated.
but.
“…I follow your orders.”
If the emperor says he will do it, he must do it.
Of course, there are moments when the name is ignored. That is the case now.
However, after seeing the emperor’s eyes, Geum Heon-tae could not dare to say no.
After a while.
Sararak.
The soldiers lined up inside the broken castle gate turned left and right.
Although it was not the size of an emperor, a rather large and ornate chair was placed in front of the young man.
The emperor trotted over and sat down comfortably in a chair. And Gokgyeong was founded right after the emperor.
The young man said with a smile.
“The distribution is amazing.”
“If you want to be the master of a country, this level of distribution is a basic skill.”
“Even if I become a fool who lies down without even looking at his place to die?”
“Did you call me to the place of death?”
The young man who was looking at the emperor with a smile suddenly looked at Gokjing.
Gok-gyeong had his back turned and was looking at the young man with transparent eyes.
There is no blinking of an eye or change in facial expression. However, the morale that permeated his entire body was sharply forged to the point where he could react at any moment.
Admiration appeared on the young man’s face.
“What a great warrior logo. Although he may not be as good as the vice-president of the main school, he will be able to compete well with the head of the school. “There were indeed people in the imperial palace.”
From the young man’s point of view, it was a compliment, but from Gok-gyeong’s point of view, it could have been an insult.
However, Gok-gyeong’s expression still did not change. My mind wasn’t disturbed at all.
The young man looked at the emperor again and said:
“There is no way a warrior like that could have been raised in the imperial palace. Was he a strong warrior?”
The emperor’s eyes deepened.
When you become Shinhwa Cyoju, you have to be very good at midfield situations.
Moreover, if Gok-gyeong is a master who cannot guarantee victory, it will not be that difficult to read the opponent’s energy and identify his identity.
However, the opponent did not even know the identity of Gok-gyeong.
the emperor asked.
“There is nothing to confirm, but are you the leader of the Shinhwa cult?”
The young man nodded.
“It’s called Gicheonwoong (起天雄). “I am the one who rules the mythological religion of our time.”
“My surname is Yu (劉) and my surname is Heum (欽).”
“Yuhm.”
“The emperor of the contemporary empire is a burden.”
You don’t have to straighten your back and have a dignified posture or lower your voice.
The presence of an emperor who proudly spoke his name and claimed to be the master of a nation even in the face of a rare monster that could kill him right in front of his eyes was no less than that of Ki Cheon-woong.
A look of admiration appeared on Ki Cheon-woong’s face.
“amazing. “What is this intimidation when you have the body of an ordinary person who hasn’t even learned a single martial art?”
“….”
“It is said that losers of the times are born. It is a spirit worthy of claiming to be the master of a vast continent. “I have never seen anyone like you anywhere.”
Saewoesamgyo.
Among them, a rare compliment comes from the mouth of the Shinhwa cult leader in charge.
Even in the eyes of a giant who could rise to the pinnacle of the world through martial arts alone, the emperor’s appearance certainly seemed different.
“But isn’t that too careless?”
It was then.
thud! thud! thud! thud!
The huge stone wall in the center of the castle wall fell back and a black gun barrel appeared in front of it.
The number was fifty. Fifty pieces of artillery were aimed at the Xinhua Church’s troops, who had retreated to less than a hundred yards.
“Ever since I was young, I was interested in many different fields, so I tried my hand at various things before going astray. Among them, administration was the first and military was the second.”
“….”
“Those artillery pieces are new type artillery pieces created through collaboration between Jim and some of the greatest masters of all time. “I finished it just three months ago.”
“It’s artillery… it’s coming out bloody.”
“It is a monster that has four times the power of existing artillery and can even fire repeatedly. “You wouldn’t know it if a master like you were nearby, but since they are so far away, who can stop them?”
Gi Cheon-woong said with a mocking smile.
“In terms of fire power, there was no organization that could compare to our school even in the world of the time and all over the world. “If you put your mind to it, you won’t even be able to use them.”
“why? “Do you want to give it a try?”
“….”
“If you called me to make such a trivial provocation, it would be truly unpleasant. “If it were only that size, I wouldn’t have even walked there.”
Ki Cheonwoong’s face hardened slightly.
The Emperor tapped the armrest with his fingers.
“After this time, if you ever lose the dignity of facing your burden, the hardships of coming a long way will be paid in blood, so do not disturb your dignity with useless nonsense.”
“….”
“Say. “How did you ask to see Jim in person?”
“It had to be that way.”
A smile appeared on Ki Cheonwoong’s face again.
It was not an expression of a certain degree of playfulness, intended to test the other person.
It was only now that he fully understood the majesty and high dignity of the emperor. Ki Cheon-woong’s smile was a smile that came from the heart.
“I need to see and confirm what kind of person you are before I can respond and see if it would be okay for our school to advance to the central region.”
The emperor’s eyes widened slightly.
“You’re advancing to the midfield?”
“That’s right.”
Gi Cheon-woong slowly emptied the glass in his hand and then spoke.
“If you, the emperor, recognize us, it will be much easier to advance into the central plains.”
