It’s been a year since my children, who won’t hurt if you put them in their eyes, came into the world.
Even if I could explain every single thing that happened during that year, there would be no end to it.
In the middle of a meeting, everyone suddenly cried for their mother, so everyone held the meeting while holding the child. There was also an incident where Shinseung, the Murim leader, came to visit and fell asleep in his arms while offering a prayer of blessing, causing him to postpone his schedule.
There were also people trying to kidnap children.
However, after finding out about this in advance from fellow students around me, I beat them all up, and in return, I even told the emperor the location of a good secret area.
It was a year in which a lot happened.
And among the many things, one thing that could be considered special was added.
“You said it?”
“Hmm. That’s it.”
It was a few days after the children’s first birthday party. Nam Gwan-ju, who had not come even though he was invited to the first birthday party, saying he had work to do, came with a special gift.
“This?”
What was in his hand was a triangular container. When I look inside, it looks like there’s a mirror…
“It’s a kaleidoscope.”
“So?”
“You can use this to go to another world… but once you go back and forth, it disappears.”
“How much did it cost to make one of these?”
“I heard it a lot. Mass production will probably be difficult. Not only the mirror but also other items cost quite a bit… and the amulets and relics used are also considerable.”
I spent a lot of money just to catch the Demon Beast King. I looked at Nam Chae-hyun and he shrugged his shoulders.
“Of course, I took the test.”
“How was it?”
“It was successful. And we went and caught the Demon Beast King.”
uh? really? When I was surprised, Nam Chae-hyun grinned and showed me a cane.
I know this too. It is one of the pieces of equipment that can be obtained during the Demon King event and can inflict greater damage when attacking monsters or beasts with the Demon Beast Slayer Staff.
I used it a lot when I was making anglers.
“Anyway, we have completed our revenge and achieved our goal.”
“I see.”
“Of course, if you ask me to make this again, I can make it for you. It may cost some material and time. Because only I know the production method perfectly.”
“So does that mean the production method will not be leaked?”
“Well… that’s what you mean, right? And who else would be worthy of spending this much money and effort to pass up? If you had that much power and money, you could probably live here.”
I couldn’t help but chuckle at his words. Because there are some things in the world that cannot be solved with money and power alone.
“How should I use this?”
“Are you planning on writing this to your wife? It will react to her blood.”
I saw a kaleidoscope.
There were three holes on the outside where blood could drip.
“One is her, one is her companion, and one is the person who lives here. Through that, you will be able to return.”
“Hmm…”
“Do you need any more explanation? If you want, I’ll go with you…”
“There’s no need to do that. Stability will be reliable.”
“Haha. Just trust me. If you go and don’t come back, I’ll be dead. And because many people have already tried it.”
I nodded towards the confident man.
It’s definitely trustworthy in the field of Taoism.
In the evening, I called my family. Big Sayun, who was staring at the kaleidoscope that Nam Chae-hyun gave her, sighed softly.
“Because of me…”
“Don’t you want to show that you’re living well?”
“But…”
“Don’t think about the cost. And just by working at the guesthouse, you are helping me a lot, so don’t think about that. Because it becomes a popular attraction, there is a lot of money to be made.”
There is no need to eat shaved ice only in summer. Shaved ice to eat after taking a deep bath in hot water.
Everyone likes a cool drink or alcohol after enjoying a steam room.
Big Sayun thought for a moment and then raised his head. The place where her gaze was directed was Geomseong and Hongryeon. The women holding the children smiled at that gaze.
“I don’t think it’s a bad idea to go back and forth.”
“Yes. So that those in other worlds can feel safe. Show me that you are living well.”
“…Yes. Thank you.”
“What is gratitude?”
Geomseong stroked Big Sayun’s head, and Big Sayun smiled softly at his touch.
It was decided to use the blood of the Sword Saint for the purpose of returning. A drop of her blood, a drop of my blood, and a drop of Big Sayun’s blood.
Big Sayun looked at the kaleidoscope and smiled bitterly.
“I wanted to meet Sayoon…”
“There’s nothing I can do because I’m in the Murim Alliance now.”
“Why not bring a gift?”
Seeing Hongryeon’s smile, Sayoon shrugged his shoulders and injected energy into the kaleidoscope.
Light flashes around. What unfolded at the same time was a familiar sight to me and to her.
The ruined Hongseongmun Gate and the burial mound at its center.
Even though it was in the same state as last time, the older Sayun paid it no heed and calmly approached and opened the bag he had brought.
Alcohol and a box of sugar.
Aside from that, she piled up the items needed for the ancestral rite, lit the candle, and while she prayed, I stepped back and watched her.
How long has he been guarding this place alone?
As I was looking around Hongseongmun Gate, which was exposed with a flashy red lantern, I looked to one corner.
There were weapons that appeared to have been used by the great Sayun.
Taewon sword, Yangyu sword, Changji sword.
And so on.
…How come they only used such trash?
For now, just use something good.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“No, that one.”
“Ah.”
A blush appeared on Big Sayun’s face. She knows it too. The weapons over there are not very good weapons.
“…I couldn’t help it.”
In Heavenly Moon, good weapons include ability and ability, but you should also consider whether or not they can be repaired.
It’s natural. Equipment with special abilities can be repaired using special methods.
Therefore, the value of equipment with indestructible or repairable options was bound to be much higher than other equipment, and a poor person could not buy it.
“Because I needed a lot of money to get revenge… all the good weapons were already destroyed.”
“Then what are the things gathered over there?”
“I saved it to sell later.”
She scratched her cheek in shame and sighed softly.
“Then what is that?”
“Ah.”
When he pointed to the great sword stuck in the rock, the older Sayun let out a sigh. Then he stared at it with sad eyes and calmly approached it.
-What the heck…
I slowly grabbed the great sword stuck in the rock and lifted it up.
It was a sword I knew.
“bloody. It must be a sword that Noya just made.”
That’s the equipment you can get when you fail the Barracks’ Treasured Sword event. Bogum failed. Of course, it’s not a bad thing just because it’s a failure, but…
“…Do you know?”
“Because I know almost everything about you. However… it wasn’t completed.”
Nod.
Big Sayun stared at the great sword in silence. And he muttered softly in a depressed voice.
“Yes. As you said, it wasn’t completed in the end.”
I couldn’t find some ingredients.
However, the situation was urgent and I had to use it right away, so I asked Noya to quickly ask for it, and in the end, this sword was not completed.
“… Was I in too much of a hurry?”
“But you couldn’t fight without this sword, right?”
“Yes.”
Big Sayun spoke firmly and nodded.
okay. It would have been inevitable.
If she were back then, she wouldn’t have been able to wait for the sword to be completed like waiting for an old man to sharpen a bat.
Also, Noya probably couldn’t help it.
This world is a place where time itself is human life. Therefore, he would have put in the maximum amount of effort while spending the minimum amount of time, and in the end, he would have had no choice but to be satisfied with this level.
“Didn’t you just ask Noya to make it again?”
“I wanted to do that, but… Noya was attacked by the Demonic Cult while I was fighting the Iron Bloods and was no longer able to hold the hammer, so I tried to leave it to his disciple, but…”
“But?”
“He said he couldn’t touch the sound of iron because he couldn’t hear it. Other blacksmiths said they had no intention of tampering with other people’s masterpieces…”
Big Sayun looked at the great sword with regret. It looks good on the outside, but in the end, it is an unfinished sword, so it is being sheathed here.
“How about taking it?”
“Yes? But.”
“Now there is just Noya.”
“It might be a nuisance to that person…”
“I think the old man would actually like it.”
As far as I know, he hasn’t heard the sound of iron yet.
If the story of Heavenly Moon goes by, you will hear the sound of iron while facing all kinds of hardships and adversity, but I think you may not have heard the sound of iron since you settled in Seomhwachon and lived peacefully since then.
Maybe, after seeing that unfinished sword, I will gain enlightenment and hear the sound of iron.
I held out my hand to the older Sayun, and after hesitating, she took up her sword.
“I understand.”
“Now. Well, that’s it. Have you finished saying hello?”
“Um… Yes. Now all I have to do is say goodbye.”
I headed to the burial mound with her smiling. I can no longer see them because there is no Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara, but I will be able to meet them again in the world where I belong.
I prayed with Big Sayun and held hands.
” Let’s go. The kids will be waiting.”
“Smiling has become more natural.”
“Hehe…”
She smiled while holding Noya’s treasured sword in her hand, then tiptoed slightly and kissed me on the lips, then blinked one eye.
“Because of you.”
“……”
“Because it’s thanks to you…”
Come on. She hugged me and pressed her face against her chest and spoke in a low tone.
“Please don’t miss it for the rest of your life.”
I responded to her comment by hugging her.
