Absolute Regression

In the 34th episode, rather than dealing with a single tiger,

a blood-cheon sword entered the battle of heaven.

He walked slowly along the bloody path and stopped at the edge of the carpet.

“how are you?”

Hyeolcheon Doma politely greeted Geom Woojin.

“Thanks to you, I had a good time. “How was it for you?”

“Thanks to you, I’ve been a little busy these days.”

Geom Woojin smiled slightly.

“The kid has a big head, so I can’t do what I want.”

“ha ha ha. “Has there ever been something you couldn’t do?”

“Isn’t it true that children are beings arranged by heaven to show us that life does not go as we wish? “You should find out when you have children.”

“My child might be growing up somewhere.”

Geom Woojin laughed. He was softer and friendlier than when he was playing sword dance. If you had seen the sword dance, you would definitely have said, ‘Smile brightly at your child like this!’

After briefly exchanging greetings, Hyeolcheondoma hinted at sword dance.

“It may not work out the way the leader wants, but these days, this Confucius is standing out on campus.”

“Isn’t this your work?”

In fact, it’s safe to say that’s the case, because sword dance became popular after being intertwined with Hyeolcheon Doma.

“This Confucius is the work of the religious leader. “It was only this time that I realized it was such a wonderful piece of work.”

Geom Woojin did not deny it. Because believing that one exists behind one’s son’s activities is not a bad thing in any sense.

“You’re still immature.”

“I sometimes think back to when I was Confucius’ age. “If this Confucius becomes immature now, I will have to call him a scoundrel.”

“You overestimate immaturity.”

“It’s an overestimation. The leader did it first.”

This was something he said about entrusting the Hwangcheongakju to Geommugeuk. Whatever the reason, it was an unconventional greeting.

“That’s why I’m telling you, I want to make this Confucius a better work.”

“If you come forward, it could be said to be a blessing in disguise for the second guy.”

“That is an overstatement.”

“Just figure it out.”

“thank you.”

At the end of the story, the purpose of Hyeolcheondoma’s visit was carefully revealed.

“Would you please properly push for what has already been allowed?”

“What does it mean?”

“Please let me proceed with this Demon Lord’s matter as I wish.”

It was a request to make Jangho the demon lord as recommended.

There was silence for a moment. The two looked at each other without any emotional ups and downs. The first person to break the silence was Geom Woojin.

“The Demon Lord matter is difficult.”

“This matter is also what this Confucius wants.”

“As you said, the second child has been pushed far enough. “You have to think first.”

“There is one thing I felt while raising my students. When you push someone, you have to make sure to push just one person. “I’m getting a lot of criticism because I can’t do that.”

“I’ll be fine. Unlike you who are generous, I kill anyone who insults me.”

The eyes of the two people were intertwined in the air. They spend years together where they can tell the other person’s intentions just by looking at their eyes. The longer the time passes, the more awkward the silence of this moment becomes.

“Is there anything more to say?”

Hyeolcheondoma no longer stubbornly obeyed Cheonma’s order to banish guests. This is because I know very well that I am not a person who easily changes my decision once I make it. Another method was needed.

“See you next time.”

“That’s right.”

The Hyeolcheon Doma turned around and came out. His expression remained frozen as he walked down the bloody road.

‘What kind of belated weighing is this? If you push it once, you have to push it all the way. ‘Tsk!’

“The sect leader was thinking more about the archduke than about you.”

As soon as Hyeolcheondoma saw me, he started to drive a wedge between my father and me.

“It seemed like you thought of the Archduke as your successor.”

When you have a weakness, you attack the other person first. This old man’s political skills are truly disgusting.

“I think we had a bad meeting.”

“What does it mean?”

“If I fall behind my older brother, even if I were an elder, he would have to make up for what I am lacking…”

“Does this mean I am not good enough?”

“It means it’s somewhat disappointing.”

Instead of getting angry, Hyeolcheondoma comforted me.

“Look at this Confucius. “It was impossible to establish Jangho as the demon lord in the first place.”

“Have you given up already?”

“There is no need to cling to something that doesn’t work.”

“Are you so proud of yourself when you can’t even achieve this?”

“This much? Poser?”

He began to treat the furious Hyeolcheon Doma even more.

“It was an old man who offered to become my mentor.”

“You were the one who begged me to do something that couldn’t be done like a child.”

“Then you should have refused then. I shouldn’t have recommended Jangho the next day. “Didn’t you do it just in case?”

I drew a long line under the feet of Hyeolcheon Doma.

“You said that before. This is how the leader thinks about the elderly. I believed in this line…”

I drew the line again, less than halfway.

“Isn’t this where the actual line between you and your father lies?”

Hyeolcheondoma could not refute. What would have happened if I hadn’t gone to my father and asked him specifically? Did his father actually listen to Hyeolcheondoma’s request?

“If my father refused, I should have asked more. “If it were me, I would definitely do it.”

“Then give it a try.”

“yes?”

“Didn’t you mock me for not being able to do even this much? Then you can do it easily.”

“What would you do if I asked your father to do it for you and make it happen easily?”

“You can try it. “Maybe it will backfire?”

Since he rejected his own request, he seemed convinced that his son’s request would never be granted. In times like these, it seems that Hyeolcheondoma knows his father well.

“Are you saying we want to make a bet?”

“bet? It’s good. Let’s do it. If you can’t do it, then from then on, stop talking and be my water. “No more snacking.”

“What if I make it?”

“I’ll give you what you want.”

“Whatever you want?”

“Is there anything you want?”

After thinking for a while, I told him.

“Please get me the elixir. At least it’s a better elixir than Demon Jeongdan.”

For a moment, Hyeolcheon Doma was startled. I know exactly the nature of this surprise.

“Are you saying that you know how difficult it is to obtain a better elixir than Demon Spirit Dan?”

“No, it will be a condition. “Now that we’ve decided to join the same boat, isn’t my becoming stronger the same as you becoming stronger?”

There was a reason why I asked for an elixir from Hyeolcheondoma.

Because I knew he had the elixir.

He has the rare elixir Heavenly God Dan, which can give him more power than the Demon Spirit Dan.

In the past, Hyeolcheon Doma joined hands with his older brother and presented the Heavenly God Altar. It was also revealed at that time that he had been storing the Heavenly God’s Goddess without taking it for a long time.

The purpose of inducing betting was precisely because of this extraordinary shrine.

“I can’t turn Jang Hao into a demon lord, and I can’t even save him an elixir. I don’t know why I have to join hands with the old man.”

“Okay, if you make Jang Ho the Demon Lord, I will get you my elixir.”

“You promise.”

I pulled out the dark magic sword and held it out in front of me. The Blood Heavenly Sword struck my sword with its immortal sword.

Jang!

This clear sound was our promise. This promise made in German has a much more powerful binding effect than words.

As always, the blood-cheon-doma leapt up and disappeared into the distance.

If he wins the bet, he will keep his promise. Because the Heavenly God Altar was something he had prepared for his successor.

As long as you can take the Demonic Spirit Dan that you took earlier and the Heavenly God Dan, you will never lose in a fight with Mazon due to lack of internal strength.

And I knew how to win this bet.

The place I visited was the office of Grand Commander Sima Ming.

Tongcheongak, where he stays, serves as the head of the school. All information about Moorim is gathered and classified here. Among them, very little information was passed down to his father through Sima Ming.

I don’t know, but I probably account for a significant portion of the information being passed down from Tongcheongak to Cheonmajeon these days.

A strict security was spread from the entrance to Tongtian Pavilion to Sima Ming’s office, and it was even worse than the Tianma Hall. This meant that Tongcheongak played an important role in the school, and since it was a place where intelligent soldiers gathered, it had to be protected more thoroughly.

When I entered the general military office, Sima Ming was working among a pile of documents. There were so many documents piled up on the desk that they almost covered his face.

It might seem like giving a few words of advice from your father’s side would be enough, but in reality, the job of a general military officer is fighting with documents. He spends his days reading and re-reading hundreds of letters from all over the Central Plains every day, and distinguishing between information that needs to be discarded and information that needs to be saved.

Because I know this well, even if I do Hwangcheon Gakju, I cannot do Tongcheon Gakju.

Sima Ming got up from his desk and greeted me warmly.

“What’s going on? Now, please sit down here.”

I sat across from him at the table. Soon after, as if he had been waiting, the attendant brought tea.

“I don’t know if it will suit you. “There is only one type of car here.”

“It smells very good.”

As I took a sip of tea, I looked around. As a place where the best minds of our school work, there were all kinds of books piled up everywhere.

“I heard that these days, when our school’s warriors gather together, they all talk about Hwangcheongak.”

“Aren’t you busy swearing?”

“It can’t be. “I heard it was full of praise.”

I know better the public opinion about Hwangcheongak. Just as there were those who were enthusiastic about the fair enforcement of the law, there were also those who opposed it.

You may feel unreasonable because you have lived your life to the fullest. What if I get caught too? This must be a worry. Discipline must be established before this atmosphere expands.

“But what’s going on?”

“I have something to ask you, soldier.”

“You can do it.”

“What do you think about Jangho?”

“I think he’s a good drone. “He is a person who will lead the Demon Army brilliantly.”

Sima Ming probably already knows. That I am behind this recommendation. That I am trying to place Jangho in the position of Demon Lord.

“Then what are the chances that Jang Hao will become Demon Lord?”

“To be honest, it’s not even enough to do the job.”

“Even if Thomas recommended Jangho?”

“The recommendation was rejected by the religious leader.”

That’s probably why the figure of 100% work came out. The original answer was that it was impossible, but out of courtesy, it was decided to do the work.

“What if your father changes his mind?”

“Then of course it is possible. But it won’t be easy. As you know, the leader is not one to change a decision once made without any justification.”

“I know that very well.”

It was a decision made at my request in the first place. I have no intention of asking my father to change his decision again without justification.

We need to give you a reason to change your decision. This is what I prepared.

“How about this? “What if I receive a recommendation from another Mazon following the Blood Heaven Chopping?”

“Two Magons recommending one person at the same time? It’s unprecedented… but if that happens, there’s a good chance that Jangho can become a demon lord. Because the religious leader also has a reason to change his mind. But is it possible?”

In a situation where Hyeolcheondoma stepped forward, it was not at all easy to get other mazons to come forward and recommend Jangho.

“You should give it a try. “Isn’t it sometimes easier to deal with two tigers at the same time than with one tiger?”

“I think it will be more difficult.”

So, this prerequisite must exist. At the same time, to prevent the unfortunate event of having a limb ripped off.

“What if those two tigers are really at odds with each other?”
