To be honest… I didn’t have very high expectations when I asked the question.

That was because I already knew that I had lived a life of greater difficulty than anyone else.

That not everything in this world is so easy.

What if there was a world where you could get an answer back just by asking an abusive question?

Why do the agony and failures that so many people have experienced so far exist?

You don’t have to worry about any problem, just click on it and your problem will be solved immediately.

However, the world, and life, are not as easy as people often mistaken… So, while I was asking questions out of curiosity, I was also trying to come up with a solution in my own way. Geoneul…

‘···Is there a way to solve this?’

Are there even two of them?

Some people may say, ‘What, there are only two?’ in response to the party’s remarks just now, but my thoughts were a bit different.

It struck me as quite significant that there were not one, but two solutions that the party and others had mentioned.

So, without realizing it, I filled my eyes with anticipation… but in my eyes, like a leader who, in his time, has grown a group called Tangga and a company called Sichuan Pharmaceuticals into a great place not only in Asia but also in the world, Was it possible to immediately capture the longing contained within?

Dangdeung cleared his throat slightly, as if the situation of being looked at by a thief who was trying to take the seat next to the daughter he loved so much was… complex and subtle.

Then he opened his mouth with a serious expression.

“Keuhm, the first way is to give up the martial arts skills you have now.”

“It’s a method in principle.”

“Because it is a theoretical method, it is also the most certain solution.”

That was… it was like that.

The problem is that the prohibition that is secretly inserted into martial arts is because if you give up the martial arts that are the basis for it, the prohibition will also lose its power.

“In that sense… I promise you something.”

“If it’s a promise…?”

“If you choose that method, our family will support you both materially and spiritually so that you can return to your original state as quickly as possible.”

This is our sincere support…

It’s definitely not at an average level.

Especially considering that the person who mentioned it was not an ordinary elder, but the current head of the family and the chairman of the Sacheon Group.

If we even took that into consideration, it was safe to suspect that this might be a trap… but it didn’t seem necessary.

That is because this was a proposal that was beneficial to the party and the party.

It looks like he has already made up his mind to some extent to recognize me as his son-in-law…

In that case, wouldn’t it be easier to feel at ease in one way or another to brush off any problems that may lead to trouble in the future as cleanly as possible?

Is that why?

Even though the second method had not even been mentioned yet, the party and others tried to persuade me.

“I understand. It won’t be easy to give up since it’s something you worked so hard to build.”

“Um···.”

“But hasn’t this been a road you’ve already walked down once? You will soon be able to return to your original state.”

It wasn’t an unreasonable statement.

It’s not wrong, but if the problem is that you’re not attracted to it, then it’s probably a problem.

‘Anyway, the Uicheonmu I’m using now is just a copy copied through the app.’

In other words, even if the party was the first solution and followed the suggested method, it could not be a solution in principle.

That’s right… Even if I manipulate the app and remove Uicheonmu from the slot, ‘I’ who exists in the world of Romance of the Three Kingdoms will still be learning Uicheonmu.

Even if it was removed that way, the problem remained.

Although it was thanks to the power of the app, I had now succeeded in coexisting magic and martial arts, which was known to be impossible.

But what if Uicheonmu suddenly disappears here?

And what if a new martial artist takes his place?

There is a high probability that I will follow in the same footsteps as the countless failures that existed before me.

If you’re worried about that part, shouldn’t you just give up on martial arts and go all-in on magic?

‘That’s a bit…’

While learning magic from Helena, I felt something new… but magic wasn’t as easy as I thought.

Should I say that places like the Magic Tower do not select disciples mainly from those who are bright and smart for no reason?

For example, what if magic is a game?

Intelligence that is superior to others is not a recommended specification, but a minimum specification required to run the game.

And… it’s a bit hard to say this with my own mouth, but objectively speaking, I wasn’t that smart.

‘It seems like things are going quite well when it comes to seducing women…’

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve always felt more comfortable using my body than using my head, but I usually don’t feel it.

The more I think about it, the more my appetite becomes bitter… but what can I do? That’s reality.

But unless you’re trying to seduce a woman, do you go all-in on magic with a brain that doesn’t work well?

I know I’m saying this now, but Helena is basic magic, and just learning the things listed was enough to make my head overheat and feel like it was going to explode.

At least I was able to endure it because I was interested in magic itself. Otherwise, I would have gotten rid of the secret tutoring of the blue-haired, big-breasted beauty wizard and all that a long time ago.

“Um···.”

The more I think about it, the more it doesn’t matter.

That was probably the reason why I let out a sigh, but when they saw my reaction, did they interpret it as because I had a lingering attachment to martial arts?

“The second method will be more difficult than the first. In addition… it is also an uncertain method in many ways.”

“What kind of method…?”

“Do you know how to create resistance to poison in children who are new to poison in our party?”

It may be obvious, but how would I know such a thing?

If that is a vision of its own, it could be called a vision.

Fortunately, the party and others didn’t ask me that question because they were expecting an answer.

His voice immediately followed, as if he was wary of the silence being longer than necessary.

“It makes you take the poison gradually, starting with the weakest.”

“Is it still okay?”

Regardless of whether it is diluted or not, in the end, poison is poison.

“There’s no way it’s okay. Even if the effect is weak, poison is poison. In fact, it is said that in the days when the family’s skills were relatively less mature, there was a time when a weak child tried to force himself into poison, but was unable to get rid of the poison and lost his life.”

“···It’s a pity.”

“Yes, it’s a shame. Especially if it is a family with precious hands like ours.”

Then wouldn’t it be okay to just not poison the kids?

I almost said that, but I endured it with superhuman patience.

No matter what group you are in, each group has its own circumstances.

Nowadays, the Tang family is enjoying a time near its heyday, so there are relatively many options, but in the past, it may have been a matter of the family’s survival.

“So… Our ancestors came up with a new way to take it. That’s like taking two poisons at once.”

What…?!

They suddenly cast a double poison event here…?

What is the party price of the past…?

It must have been a moment when I was inwardly astonished by the party’s actions that went beyond common sense in many ways.

As if my inner thoughts were showing on my face, a wry smile appeared on the face of Dandeung who was looking at me.

“Don’t look at me like I’m a monster. At the level of technology at the time, there was no other method that was as reasonable and safe as that.”

safety···?

“For example, suppose there is a poison that stops the heart and a poison that accelerates blood flow and makes the heart beat faster.”

“Is there a poison that makes your heart beat faster?”

“Yes. It seems like a weak drug, but it is often used. Well, it’s safe to say that unless you drink it by the bucketful, it’s unlikely to cause any harm to your life, so it’s a bit ambiguous to call it a proper poison.”

“···Aha.”

Anyway, so?

“What do you think will happen if you take those two poisons at the same time?”

“Of course…”

of course···?

“The correct answer is, nothing happens.”

“Indeed…this is literally Admiral Lee.”

“Well… if someone who is not an expert in poison tries to do it in a foolish way, it’s a good thing to risk their life, but that’s the way it is for now.”

After hearing that, I felt like I finally understood something.

This is roughly what the second method that party members are talking about is.

“You are saying that just as you control poison with poison, you control martial arts with martial arts.”

“That makes sense. If you learn a martial art whose nature is the opposite of the martial art you are learning now and use that energy to suppress your existing inner strength, the power of the forbidden will naturally weaken as well.”

“Is it okay?”

“Considering that the martial art you learned is a martial art, it is quite pure and stable, so in theory, I don’t think there will be any problem…”

If you look at the fact that you don’t finish your sentence and blurt out the end of your sentence, it means that a theory is just a theory.

Thanks to this, it must have been a moment when I couldn’t make a decision.

I thought I heard footsteps with a sense of urgency coming from beyond the hospital room door.

Drurrr!

Someone fell and ran into the hospital room.
