Chapter Index

    The teacher also left so that we could prepare for the martial arts competition, and the three of us were gathered in the common room.

    At first, we were awkward with each other since we had not seen each other for a long time, but we started asking each other questions.

    Again, the awkwardness eased as the story progressed.

    “Seol-yeong said that she received training from a master sent from Bukhae Ice Palace, right?”

    “Yeah.”

    Seol-yeong said, flipping her white hair.

    His hair was a bit long, and above all, his internal energy and yin energy were very stable.

    ‘…and grew up?’

    It is said that he was originally a talented ice sculptor, one of the best in the North Sea Ice Palace, before he suffered from the Nine-Eyed Pulse.

    But since I had cured his pulse the last time I came to the martial arts world, it seemed like his past talent had blossomed again.

    I also grew a lot over the course of a month, but I felt like I couldn’t reach her growth rate.

    Even the teacher said before he left that Seol-yeong might be useful.

    But on the other hand, I was also worried.

    “Are you okay?”

    I had never heard of a relapse, but even so, by the standards of this world, I was still a patient until recently.

    A patient suffering from life-threatening dysphagia.

    I wondered if it was okay for Seol-yeong to practice because her physical strength had declined due to suffering from such an illness for a long time.

    Seol-yeong then covered her mouth and smiled, then looked at me warmly.

    “Seonghan says the same thing as our parents.”

    “Really?”

    I felt a little embarrassed.

    “Okay, do you want to check?”

    “OK?”

    “Yeah, check my danjeon like before.”

    To check the syllable, it is clearㅡ

    You had to put your hands on your stomach or behind your back.

    I started to think seriously.

    “…Hey, I’m here too.”

    A voice that sounded a little bit sad was heard from the side.

    Jeongseon looked at the two of us with a bewildered expression, giving off a strange vibe.

    I smiled awkwardly once again, and Seol-yeong smiled as if she found it amusing and sipped her tea.

    Seol-young’s facial expressions were that varied.

    It seems that the facial expressions that had been frozen have returned to normal thanks to the treatment of the palatine palsy.

    “Where did you practice for a month?”

    “I went back to the house where I used to live.”

    Jeongseon was originally born in Giru.

    It was said that this was the reason why Jeongseon started dressing as a man.

    To protect herself from the bad men who frequent Giru, Jeongseon’s mother made Jeongseon dress up as a man.

    It is said that he continued to dress up as a man when he entered the Muhak Hall.

    “My mother introduced me to a man.”

    Seol-young and I frowned at those words.

    Only then did Jeong-seon realize that there was a slight possibility of misunderstanding, and he hurriedly waved both hands.

    “Ah, no, that’s not the kind of introduction! He introduced me to a martial arts master who would train me.”

    “Ah…”

    “Sorry, we misunderstood.”

    “No, I can’t help it, my mother is Kiru’s Rouge.”

    Because of Jeongseon’s mother’s position, introducing a man may have sounded a little strange.

    In addition, the statement that he had returned to Kiru added to the misunderstanding.

    “You introduced me to a master?”

    “Yeah, he’s a gambling addict, but he used to be a very famous master. He was originally a master of Shaolin Temple.”

    “A master from Shaolin Temple gambles…”

    It was hard to believe, but at the same time, it made sense.

    For the Shaolin masters who lived a life of asceticism, gambling would have been too stimulating a game.

    If you give in to that addiction, you may end up falling deeper than the average person.

    Anyway, it seemed like the gambler master was hired for a lot of money.

    He probably took it as a lesson to get him to gamble more.

    On the one hand, there were doubts about whether such a master could be of any help, but surprisingly, he was said to be a very capable teacher.

    ‘I guess it helped.’

    Strangely enough, I felt the same weight from Jeong Seon as from other masters.

    But there was something unique about it.

    Should I call it internal energy?

    Should I say it is the degree of muscle development?

    “What martial arts did you learn?”

    “Um… I don’t know.”

    “Huh?”

    Jeongseon was seriously worried.

    “The real tension of Shaolin martial arts…?”

    “What is that?”

    I have no idea what it means, but the word itself seems familiar.

    It sounded exactly like a study book for a qualification exam in the modern world.

    One volume is enough, something like that.

    Well, since I had to teach in a short period of one month, I didn’t have time to teach the basics step by step.

    Perhaps that gambler master also took that into consideration and omitted many things when teaching.

    Finally it was my turn.

    “…What’s that guy?”

    Jeongseon asked me with a slightly dissatisfied expression.

    That person, of course, meant Mo Yong-yeon.

    “What does it matter if I dress up as a man or sleep in the same room as Seonghan…”

    “Haha…”

    Our teacher has a very unyielding side.

    ,..or maybe you’re jealous?

    I don’t know.

    I told the teacher what I learned.

    The art of killing spirits.

    The two people spoke as if they found that a little peculiar.

    “A sword that kills spirits…?”

    “They say that spirits are definitely dangerous…”

    Then, an example of the Sacheondangga naturally emerged.

    Whenever the strongest poisons that the Sacheondang family possesses are selected, the poisons created by spirits always rank high.

    It is said that many of the Tang family’s warriors lost their lives in obtaining the poison.

    Nevertheless, when a poisonous spirit appears, the Sacheondang family will definitely go hunting for it.

    From the inner lining and poison that are no different from elixirs, to the hard outer skin, to the meat.

    All of those things are precious things that cannot be bought with gold.

    “It would be better to keep the name of that swordsmanship hidden.”

    There was even a joke that if someone knew my swordsmanship, they might try to kidnap me.

    It seemed that my swordsmanship was valuable to that extent.

    dripping.

    There was a knock on the door.

    “Going in.”

    The door opened and a familiar voice was heard.

    It was Instructor Cheol-ung.

    The timing was perfect, as it hadn’t been long since Mo Yong-yeon left, and he returned just in time.

    As soon as he entered, he placed a piece of paper on the table.

    The paper had “bracket” written on it.

    “The bracket has changed a bit.”

    “Oh, the number of sects participating in the competition has decreased.”

    “Yeah.”

    The reason for the line was obvious.

    First of all, all the non-academic staff except for us gave up on going, and the Mo Yong family gave up on going.

    The Muhak-gwan must have given up because they were discouraged by the sects and families that had decided to participate.

    Mo Yong-se is going to-

    I had a guess.

    ‘Did I hit you too hard?’

    It seemed like he hadn’t recovered well from the fight a week before the incident.

    Maybe you’ve recovered physically, but you might have suffered great damage to your confidence or mentality.

    “They say that Mo Yong-se was attacked by a strange man.”

    “Mo Yong-se…”

    “I guess he’s not an ordinary villain.”

    The two people were shocked by Cheol-woong’s words.

    I pretended not to know and answered in a nonchalant manner.

    It seemed that Mo Yong-se was embarrassed and decided to hide the truth.

    Well, how can I tell a student in the Humanities Department that all his students have been affected?

    As a result of the shortened bracket, the opponents we will face are-

    “Namgung? Namgung Segara…”

    Namgung Se-ga.

    I think I remember it somehow.

    Wasn’t there something…?

    It felt a little familiar.

    I searched through my memories, but I couldn’t seem to find anything.

    “Please take note everyone.”

    With those words, Cheol-woong left the room again.

    Looked a little busy.

    Is there anything to prepare?

    “If it’s Namgung, will that woman also appear in that Cheonmu Academy?”

    “Yeah. I’ll come out.”

    ‘That woman…?’

    Even while Jeongseon and Seolyeong were talking, it didn’t come to mind.

    dripping.

    And then there was another knock on the door.

    This time, I waited for Instructor Cheol-ung to come in, but the door did not open.

    Eventually, we just looked at each other and then I got up and slowly opened the door.

    As I opened the door, a beautiful woman with white skin and a refreshing blue outfit was looking this way.

    With a faint smile on his lips.

    The gaze that even felt like a slight smile was clearly from someone who knew me.

    “…Gaga♥.”

    “…Ah.”

    It came to mind.

    The voice that seemed to be soaked with honey and the special title that came out.

    My memory was deeply stimulated.

    The woman in front of you is Namgung Yu.

    He was from the Namgung Se-ga family and was one of the most talented people in Cheonmu Academy.

    She was the woman I had taken from Poongun.

    “Oh my…”

    Namgung Yu looked at Seol-yeong and Jeong-seon inside the room, then covered his mouth and laughed.

    Then he put his hand around my waist.

    “Our family is always rude…”

    As soon as he said that, the temperature in the room seemed to drop by a few degrees and a chilly atmosphere flowed.

    Following the teacher, Namgung Yu’s appearance seemed to have made Seol-yeong and Jeong-seon feel uncomfortable.

    …Even if the teacher is like that, the uncomfortable relationship between these three…

    It felt like my past karma was coming back to me.

    “Haha, right, haha…”

    I reacted awkwardly, took Namgung Yu’s hand, and went outside.

    At least it seemed better than talking in that space.

    In the process, I had to suddenly grab Namgung Yu’s wrist and drag him along.

    Namgung Yu did not feel offended by the sudden touch.

    Instead, she whispered to me with a gentle smile.

    “Gaga…♥ You’re so proactive…♥”

    It was definitely not an ordinary character.

    “Namgung Yoo…?”

    “Yes.”

    I called the person’s name one last time to confirm, wondering if I had misunderstood him.

    Namgung Yu nodded and answered brightly.
