“Then I’ll go.”

“Me too.”

“Both of you go in carefully.”

I sent Seolyoung and Jeongseon away from the door.

Seolyoung’s face was still as white as a winter snowflake, but her cheeks were stained red and she looked different than before.

This action seemed to be of great help to the oral syllable system.

[4 months remaining]

Because the remaining deadline has increased.

Thinking about it again sent shivers down my spine.

The remaining period has increased, meaning that if two months have passed without treatment today.

Because Seolyoung’s oral syllables got worse, something serious might have happened.

As I was thinking that, I suddenly felt eyes on me and turned my head.

“Heh.”

Someone covered their mouth and hid behind a wall.

However, although the body was hidden, it was not possible to hide the flowing hair.

“…”

Just the hair was enough to find out who the hidden person was.

Because I have strong feelings.

[Castle: Sadist, possessive, desire for destruction, bold and active man]

“Aha…”

Just by looking at it, I could tell it was Namgoong Yu.

I don’t know how you ended up here at this hour, but hiding like that means you saw something, right?

Actually, it didn’t matter if I ignored him, but I was curious about his reaction, so I slowly approached Namgoong Yu, who was hiding behind the wall.

He must have sensed that it was coming towards him, and he heard a loud intake of breath, and then he suddenly jumped out.

“Don’t come near!”

“…”

The face looked as if it were a criminal.

Namgoong Yu’s cheeks were red, and he was poised as if he was going to attack at any moment.

It was quite threatening.

Internal energy crept up onto my tightly clenched fist.

I felt like my body wouldn’t recover if I got hit by that fist.

“Calm down, what’s wrong?”

“Two men and one woman, how could that?”

Namgung Yu kept his mouth shut as if he couldn’t even contain his words.

Even his ears were red.

“I think you are mistaken. It was simply treatment.”

“Lie. I already heard it all.”

“Did you hear that?”

“Are you asking me to at least imitate that sound?”

Namgung Yu glared at me with murderous eyes.

I guess I heard it right.

Yes, I admit it.

It sounded a bit malevolent to call it treatment.

It wasn’t a lie that I had been treated, but Namgung Yu didn’t seem to have any intention of believing me.

So, I went forward with confidence.

“So? What’s the problem?”

“That’s why… An unmarried man and woman do such an impure thing… And there are two men…”

“You didn’t break the law, did you?”

“…Yes, but…”

When he came forward confidently, he was unable to respond and muttered in a hushed voice.

Even the fists that contained energy were losing strength.

Because I haven’t committed any crime.

Probably not?

To be honest, I didn’t even know the laws of the martial arts world.

However, judging from Namgoong Yu’s reaction, fortunately, it did not seem to be illegal.

“Did you say you decided to marry Poongwoon just with a hug?”

“It’s not just about hugs! The process of reaching a hug…”

Namgung Yu said, waving his hands as if he was aggrieved.

“It seems like you don’t really want wind luck?”

“…”

Namgung Yu was speechless at my words that seemed to pierce a painful spot.

Then, Namgung Yu, who was thinking about it, slowly opened his mouth.

“Someone must have bewitched me.”

Bewitched.

Now that I think about it, Poongwoon is in a state of confusion.

In fact, Seolyoung is not even paying attention.

“Do you know who this is?”

Namgung Yu asked a question to me, who was attending the same martial arts academy.

“Why are you asking me that?”

“Somehow I feel like I know.”

Did you say that women’s instincts are scary?

Namgung Yu was looking right at me with his shining eyes.

However, it was necessary to correct Namgoong Yu’s misconception.

“It may not be what you think.”

“What does it mean?”

“It’s not that someone is possessed, it’s just that Poongwoon may have someone else in mind instead of you.”

“That means Poongwoon has someone in mind right now?”

“…right.”

It wasn’t anything to hide.

Namgung Yu is the leader of the Cheonmuhakkan, but there were few people in the Inmuhakkan who did not know that Feng Woon had feelings for Seolyeong.

In the first place, the reason he said he would learn martial arts from Cheol-woong was because Seol-yeong was learning.

“Who is that?”

Namgoong Yu came closer, putting his face in his face.

I hesitated and then made a suggestion.

“I’ll let you know if you beat us in the match tomorrow.”

“…Then what if we lose?”

Namgung Yu was quick to notice.

“Then why don’t you just hug me?”

“Ha!”

When Namgoong Yu sarcastically criticized me, he must have been angry, so he shouted loudly and glared at me.

“Good! Let’s do it! If I lose, I’ll give you a hug or something more.”

Gritting his teeth, Namgung Yu turned back.

“Instead, if you win, Gaga will have to give up his right cheek with the woman he likes.”

“…Okay.”

It seemed like the provocation worked well.

I was confident that our Muhakkwan would win.

Above all, there is Pungwoon who discovered the inner altar of spirit creatures and the tomb of the Sword King.

However, I also had that thought.

‘Is it okay to attack Namgung Yu?’

I remembered the expression Namgung Yu made while looking at Pung Woon.

That life was thicker than the life sent to me.

Even though things went as well as I had hoped, I felt uneasy when I thought back to that time.

Even if I win, I really should think about just hugging.

***

“Wow!”

“Come on, let’s eat sugar!”

“Let’s wait in line!”

“Ugh…”

My eyes were forced open by the sound coming from outside the window.

Even though I’m not a very good sleeper, I just couldn’t get through it and sleep.

To find out what the sound was, I staggered to the window and opened it…

In one night, the front of the dormitory became a marketplace.

“…It was Cheonmuhakgwan until yesterday.”

Was he sleepwalking?

Did he move to a lodging near the marketplace while he was sleeping?

However, looking at the inside of the room and the structures outside, it was clear that this was Cheonmuhakwan’s lodgings.

There was indeed a marketplace created within Cheonmuhakgwan.

It was bustling with people and even merchants.

The sight was so amazing that I lost all sleep.

I rested my chin on the window and watched the scene in a daze.

Perhaps because they had gathered to watch the dance, there were many people talking loudly throughout the market about today’s dance.

“Wouldn’t Cheonmu Hakkwan win with 5 consecutive wins?”

“Hey, this guy. Still, isn’t there some luck at the Inmuhak Hall? He is the second great disciple of the Hwasan Sect and is from the Cheonmuhakkwan, so he will get the first win.”

“I see. But did you hear that story? I’m talking about Pungwoon’s impure sexual intercourse. Actually, I heard that hugs are everything?”

“Haha, is it really necessary to get kicked out with just a hug?”

“There are also rumors that he ran away on his own…”

As expected, it seemed like he didn’t care about anyone else except Poongun, who was from Cheonmuhakgwan.

I thought at least Namgunghyuk of the Namgung family or the construction of the Bukhae Ice Palace would be mentioned.

Since they were people who lived around Cheonmuhakgwan, their pride seemed quite great.

Let alone defeat, they did not expect even a single loss, except for Poongwoon, who was also from Cheonmuhakgwan.

Somehow, my will to fight was aroused.

smart.

Someone knocked on the door, so I went out and found Cheolwoong standing in front of the door.

“Let’s get ready soon.”

“Yes.”

All the other cadets had already woken up, and the remaining 4 cadets were gathered behind Cheolwoong’s back, probably because I was the last in line.

I got dressed and followed Cheolwoong outside.

“Hey, over there…”

“That’s right…”

“Are you the opponent of this dance?”

As we left the hotel, many people in the market looked at us.

Some people glared at us with hostility, while others looked at us as if they felt sorry for us.

There were very few favorable views.

There are at least some favorable views.

“Let’s go backwards…”

There were only a few people who bet a lot of money on the match.

But we didn’t care and walked confidently.

not bad.

Well, they weren’t the type of people to be shocked by something like this.

“I will change those gazes after the dance is over. And when this meeting is overㅡ”

“Please, be quiet.”

He also silenced Namgoong Hyuk, who was trying to foreshadow his defeat.

It was true that it was a little uncomfortable to receive so much attention, but there were also good things about it.

Even though the market place was full of people, the road in front of us was clear thanks to people avoiding us.

Thanks to this, I was able to reach the non-military location on foot without stopping.

“Wow…”

“It’s different.”

Exclamations of exclamation came out between us.

It was fundamentally different from the vacant lot in our Muhak Hall.

As I followed Cheolwoong into a building, there was an amphitheater reminiscent of the Colosseum.

There were circular stands around the stadium, and in the center was a huge non-stage.

There were already many people in the audience looking at the off-stage with food in one hand, and on the other side of the off-stage, I could see the Cheonmu Hakkwan contestants I had seen yesterday.

“The order is Namgunghyuk, Jeongseon, Seolyeong, and… Pungun and Seonghan.”

“Yes.”

“Am I the last?”

“Yes.”

I was a little embarrassed that I was the last one and not Poongwoon, but there was a reason why Cheolwoong arranged it like this.

“They probably know as much about wind and cloud as we do.”

As Pungwoon was at the Cheonmuhakkwan, they also had a good understanding of the martial arts and strength that Pungwoon used.

Cheolwoong thought that since the only thing they were wary of was wind and cloud, they must have prepared in many ways.

There it is.

The martial arts of the Hwasan faction were so famous that I thought there would be no major difficulties in preparing for them.

‘Maybe I won’t take my turn.’

My thoughts were a little different.

If we had been able to prepare, the name of the volcano wave would not have been this high.

There seemed to be no one who could defeat Pungwoon, who had absorbed two kiyeon through the martial arts of the Volcanic Wave.

“Now, were both Muhakkwans present?”

A man came up to the off-stage and asked the instructors on both sides, and Cheolwoong and the instructors at Cheonmuhak Hall nodded.

As soon as they received the signal that both sides had arrived, the man looked at the audience from the center of the off-stage and shouted in a loud voice.

“Then let’s start dancing!”

As the man shouted, the audience followed suit and let out a huge roar.

My heart began to beat faster as I heard a loud roar that I had never heard in my life.
