“…I don’t know who the deceased is, but we are warriors of the Hwaryongmun, a subfamily sect of the Great Hwasan sect. If the deceased is not the evil Madou of Sima Oedo, please let us go and resolve the misunderstanding… ”

    “From now on, I will positively consider sparing the lives of those who open their mouths first. I don’t know how many people I will save. So as soon as possible… ”

    “Okay, I’ll speak first! Daehyup!”

    “I probably know more than that guy! Please listen to me first, Daehyeop!!”

    While the guy named Galeunggeom was talking nonsense, his quick-witted subordinates all raised their voices to prove their usefulness.

    I didn’t particularly protest by killing anyone, but it’s nice to see people doing as they’re told a little faster because it makes them feel at ease.

    I nominated the person who spoke the fastest.

    “You.”

    “Kwak Yong-pal! 32 years old! Hwaryongmun second-class unmanned! I live with a rabbit-like wife, fox-like children, and old parents! I dare to hope for mercy like the great river’s Hahae… !”

    “……”

    In the past, I felt that Chinese kids were strangely talkative, and it’s the same here. Let’s quickly hang up and listen to the conversation before the useless TMI becomes too long.

    “There’s no need for it, just briefly talk about Hwaryongmun and its relationship with the Hwasan faction. Very honest and explicit.”

    “…Yes? Hwaryongmun is a branch of the Hwasan faction. ”

    “Not something superficial like that. Is Hwaryongmun 300 nyang of gold through Hwacheon Sangdan? He said he owed that much. Please briefly talk about that.”

    “Gasp! How could that… !”

    When the story of the volcanic faction comes up, the guys who were wondering why the volcanic faction is suddenly coming up look shocked as soon as the story of Hwacheon Sangdan and debt comes up.

    When I said it smelled like something, it seemed like there was something smelly.

    “You don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to. There are many people to listen to anyway… ”

    “Now, please wait a moment, Daehyeop! Let me tell you!”

    “It’s okay, it’s okay. If there is nothing special, you can listen to it from other people. There is no need to suffer from a sore mouth.”

    “I will tell you all the information that people behind you will never hear! Even though he looks like this, he is a guy who listens a lot!”

    “Kwak Yongpaaaal—!”

    “There’s nothing you can do! If you are dissatisfied, Pyodu should have won! I want to live!”

    “Qu… !”

    The windbreaker, whose entire body is tied up, screams and tries to scold Kwak Yong-pal, but when I look at it again, it closes its mouth and lowers its eyes.

    Kwak Yong-pal became elated and began listing information, and I listened carefully to his story.

    “Well, where should I start… From what you’re saying, it seems like you know that the volcanic wave is not a good situation, so I’ll leave that aside! Anyway, the distribution is currently the same between Jang Mun-in and Hwaryongmun’s Lord Moon, and these two people are somewhat close friends. so… ”

    Even though there was a lot to say, the explanation by this person, Kwak Yong-pal, was valuable information that allowed me to concisely explain the key content and draw the composition well.

    After he finished speaking, I organized the important information and summarized the current situation as if talking to myself.

    “So, Hwacheon Sangdan was created by Hwasan Jang to steal Hwasan’s wealth from Hwaryongmun Munju. So, even though Hwacheon Sangdan and Hwaryongmun were living without Hwasanpa, they helped the growth of Hwacheon Sangdan and Hwaryongmun, but what comes back to Hwacheonpa is that there is no soup.”

    “That’s right, Daehyeop! And when the Hwacheon Sangdan committed illegal acts, the Hwacheon Sect became their backs and put a stop to it. Right now, the main goal of this business is actually to manufacture and bring back medicine using poppy seeds… ”

    “and Kwak Yongpal! This bastard really!!”

    Storm Sword’s face turned pale, as if he had never thought he would say this.

    The unexpected information made my mind a little more confused.

    ‘drug? These guys are really diverse.’

    If it’s a volcano, isn’t that kind of a nice person? Then, shouldn’t the franchises, the Sok family faction, or the Hwaryong clan below that also be on the good side?

    And in this world, is it okay for drugs to be distributed to these kids? Looking at the reaction, I don’t think so…

    When I heard that Hwaryongmun, a political sect, was doing something that most black guilds in reality would do, my eyebrows naturally furrowed.

    “Cherry genus? Wasn’t that illegal in the country?”

    “That’s right. However, if you use the official inviolability policy, you can easily bring in cherry blossoms without the official’s attention. They may be Sapas who do a lot of dirty work or those from the Demonic Cult who rebelled against the imperial family, but they do not touch Hwaryongmun, which is a political faction, or Hwacheon Sangdan, which has Hwasan faction as its background.”

    “Using that to tame the residents of Hwaeum County?”

    “Ma, that’s right! As expected, the Daehyup can see the thoughts of people like us at a glance!”

    no. I just thought about it because it reminded me of when I was young and attending the academy, I heard that awakened criminals used drugs to rule the area.

    Kwak Yong-pal continued to reveal many things. It seems that he wasn’t lying when he said that he had a lot to say in his own words.

    After hearing everything, I could only come to one conclusion.

    ‘These bastards are determined to rob the volcanic wave somehow. ‘Everything is small or big.’

    It wasn’t just Hwaryongmun Gate. It seems that all the factions in Shaanxi are plotting to divide the territory of the existing Huashan faction.

    -When Maehwageomseon was Ilseon, the chief of the Ten Lords of Unae, there were no stupid people who messed with the Hwasan Wave. However, after he passed away and some time passed, the Jongnam faction next door began to expand. Due to the Great War, Hwasan, which had no masters, could not stop this. As Jongnam began to expand his territory without hesitation, other military firefighters under him also expanded their territory. From close by, our Hwaryongmun, the clan clan of Hwasan, to the Sapa guys from far away.

    Although Kwak Yong-pal’s words were abbreviated to simply saying that the territory had been expanded, it feels like the conflicts of interest within it are clearly visible.

    ‘Right now, if you look at what the large guilds are doing behind the scenes in our country… ‘It’s obvious.’

    The Korean guild that Kim Hee-jin is in is one of the top three guilds in Korea, but it is famous for doing strange things behind the scenes. The other two large guilds aren’t that bad either, but I know they’re not that clean or anything like that.

    It is completely understandable that the Master feels disillusioned and does not belong anywhere, focusing only on dealing with the dungeon gate alone.

    Perhaps, we can think of this social situation, which is eating away at the volcanic wave, as the collapse of one of our country’s large guilds and the other guilds swallowing it up.

    ‘And in this situation, there is bound to be a traitor inside who cooperates with the outside. It’s also in a great location.’

    While I was thinking about it, a gnome who was wary of the surroundings spoke to me.

    “northwestward. 2KM. 30 people. Humans. Approaching.”

    While I was ordering to suppress the bandits earlier, I intentionally let one go to lure them here, and it seems that it finally paid off.

    “Everyone, prepare for battle.”

    “Yes? What do you mean by that, Daehyeop? We are the only ones here… ”

    Hwang Woong next to me looked puzzled, but his body was automatically following my words. It seems that the previous training was quite effective.

    His doubts were soon answered when the flying warriors of Hwaryongmun appeared.

    Rumble!

    Dozens of warriors come out of the forest, and a guy with a strange headband on his head takes the lead and threatens us.

    “Yes, these guys–! How dare you mess with the warriors of Hwaryongmun! You must be prepared!”

    “Rumor Lord! It’s here! Here–!!”

    The tied up flurry sword’s complexion brightens and it screams loudly.

    The guy named Somoonju, who heard this guy’s voice, glanced at me, frowned, and started reprimanding Galpungum.

    “…I was attacked by a guy who was at most a first-class beginner? Are you trying to play a joke with me now? Now, I have brought Elder Geum to protect this business, but what is this?”

    “Hexa, it’s hex! I don’t know what method he used, but this person used hexes to subdue me!”

    What the hell.

    Earlier, he said that I was some kind of deceased person or something, but when reinforcements showed up, look at how he disparaged me and called me a witchcraft. Did you hit it too cleanly? I think they should have caused him a little more pain to make him come to his senses.

    But that wasn’t something to worry about now.

    “I am sorry about this, Elder Geum. It seems that our leader was careless and made a mistake. I’ll take care of it soon… ”

    “rumor stock. Step away.”

    “…Yes? Aren’t they just a bunch of bandits? And at best, they are just beggars who have only the faintest hint of 10 years worth of effort… ”

    “If the world had progressed only through public power, the Heavenly Demon would have ruled the world during the Great Demon War. In times like this, there are things that are even more scary because you don’t know.”

    The one-eyed spearman glares at me sharply and pushes back the guy who looks like a small master or something.

    From my only eye, a hotter glow than the eyes of other people flows out, and that light shines sharply on every move of my body.

    “Contractor. He has a stronger energy than you. It felt like I was seeing a human girl I had met for the first time. Of course, I feel like that’s just a side note.”

    As Undine said, the one-eyed spearman’s power was felt to be similar to that of an evolved spirit.

    But there was something more threatening about him than that.

    ‘The smell of blood.’

    Of course, this does not mean that the fishy iron smell of blood itself can be felt.

    However, the unique eyes and posture of a person who killed many people gave me the illusion that my five senses were being stimulated without my knowledge.

    “Upset! It feels similar to magic! It’s not overt, but there’s something sticky about it. No, in some ways, it’s an unpleasant energy that’s stickier than magical power!”

    “That’s right, master! be careful. “The human theme has a very ominous energy!”

    Did Shriel and Ifrit feel the same way as me? The spirits were also warning in unison about the danger of the enemy in front of them.

    The spearman looked at me for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth as if amused.

    “You’re a quick-witted guy. I don’t really hate guys like you or anything, but you’re out of luck. Think of it all as fate.”

    “Why are you acting like you already won? Did he sell one of his eyes with his proud tongue? I don’t know why it’s so long.”

    “Inom–!”

    Somoonju hears my sarcasm and raises her voice next to me. The spearman, who heard what I said, quietly smiled even brighter.

    “How dare the elder of the Hwaryongmun, Ghost Chang (幽霊槍) Geum Ju-Hoon Daehyeop, mock the wounds of Glory that he suffered while defeating the descendants of the Demonic Demon. You are, after all, a squire of the evil Sima Yuedo! I, Baek Do-hyeon, the small master of Hwaryongmun, will punish you!”

    None of the cries of the rumor mills or anything that were talking back and forth reached my ears.

    Crash…

    Concentrate on one movement of the spearman, who raises the tip of the spear little by little.

    I can see the other person’s eyes clearly capturing the image of me raising my sword in the center of their pupils.

    The moment when the tips of each other’s spears and swords meet in a straight line.

    Kwaaaang—!

    Chaaeaeang—!

    A silent fight began as sword strikes and spear strikes began targeting each other, not knowing who started first.
