Although it is said that craftsmen do not care about the equipment, it is still better to show off your skills if you have good equipment.

So, of course, I wanted to give the Sword Saint good equipment as a gift.

However, the great sword that Geomseong uses now is called Changseonggeom, which is a great sword with cloud iron in it.

In other words, that was also a fairly good weapon.

“Master, you have a spear sword.”

Hongryeon also knew this, so she told the Sword Saint.

“That. Still…”

“I have something in mind that would be suitable for the Sword Saint.”

“Huh? Uh, what?”

Geomseong wants to hand over Jangmun-in’s position to Hongryeon.

If that happens, it would be difficult for her to wear things like Seongun-gap or Hong Seong-moon long print costumes.

Therefore, she needs to find something that can support her in a different direction than the sword.

in other words. clothes.

There was no problem as I knew where the materials to make precious clothes suitable for a sword saint were located and who could make them.

So I explained the situation, and Geomseong smiled brightly, his previous self completely gone.

“Hehe, hehe. Thank you. But isn’t it difficult to get it?”

“It won’t be easy.”

“I’ll be prepared! The two of us will go later…”

“Five people must go there.”

“Oh.”

Geomseong, who was feeling regretful, gently nodded. ruler. Then you are ready…

“Why?”

I tilted my head as Sayoon stared at me. She seemed surprised and embarrassed by my reaction.

“Uh. No.”

“Sayun. I also have some equipment I want to give you. I’ll give it to you later, so look forward to it.”

“Huh? Isn’t that why you saw it?! And I’m fine! Because I also have this sword…”

The sword is pretty, but since it’s a pretty one-tool, it would be better to get a proper weapon.

Coincidentally, you can get that material at the Dragon Temple, and other materials can be obtained not far from Island Hwaseong, so I’ll have to go there sometime later.

“So? How do I enter the Dragon Temple?”

Chae-ryeon seemed to be more interested in being able to enter the dragon temple, which she had only known about in legend. She asked urgingly, and I pointed to the map of Cheongho hanging on the wall.

“You have to go through all the shrines of the temple that the dragon’s subordinate built in Cheongho. We have to open a path through there…”

“Do you do it?”

“Let’s move at night.”

“Why is it night?”

“Moonlight is needed to activate that shrine. According to records, there are five shrines in total…”

“There are quite a few shrines honoring dragons in Cheongho…”

“Among them, you must choose only the real ones in order.”

Chae-ryeon listened to my story while writing in her notebook, as if it were fascinating, and I explained it to the best of my ability.

“Wow. That’s amazing… I never thought there would be such a secret in Cheongho. It is not even conveyed to Munwoljeong…”

“Sometimes it is dark under the lamp.”

***

I wanted to talk more, but the apprentice took Yoo-wol away for a drink.

There are few people who can drink like that with their father, the Doge.

Anyway, the Doge is an exciting but scary person and cannot be considered a good person.

Some people trembled in fear of making mistakes while drunk, and many people avoided drinking with him altogether.

That is why the Doge always drank alone.

But something like that. No, a person has appeared who has a stronger spirit, is not afraid of himself, has everything to say, and knows a lot.

So, it would be natural for the apprentice to cherish Yuwol as a drinking buddy.

“That’s probably why my father likes the guest.”

“That’s what it is…”

“Your attitude does not change no matter who you deal with.”

Hearing Chaeryeon’s words, Geomseong looked at the ceiling. Well, that’s right.

Although there may be differences in speaking style, Yuwol has always been like that.

If it is an enemy, exclude it.

If you are an ally, treat them politely, but without making them feel distant or servile.

His attitude had never changed as far as she knew.

“It’s definitely something great. Because it’s not about martial arts, it’s about being strong as a person.”

If such a person had learned martial arts from a young age, it would not be impossible for him to reach the level of a superhuman.

That was very disappointing.

But what can I do? No matter how superhuman you are, you cannot turn back time.

In that case, all you have to do is fill in what he is lacking.

Isn’t that what being a couple is all about?

‘Do you think so…’

Hongryeon looked at Geomseong and Chaejin. superman. These people are one step outside the human realm.

There were three people like that, but instead of feeling burdened, Yuwol tried to embrace them all.

Rather, even that might not be enough to match his strength. It almost makes me think.

“By the way, when is the wedding?”

When Chaeryeon asked, the three remained silent. I made a promise to get married. But there was no word on when it would be done.

“Joe, it will be soon, right? No worries at all. Tea, I can hold it in.”

“Because I received a ring… Because I trust him! Try to stay quiet! So, little brother. Don’t worry.”

“Hmm. There is no problem, so don’t worry.”

…Isn’t this dangerous?

The eyes of the three that appeared at that moment were like hungry beasts facing their prey, but Chaeryeon couldn’t bring herself to say those words and just swallowed them.

It was a deep night with the moon high when Yuwol, who had been taken prisoner by his apprentice, came out. Yuwol, who came into the room under the bitterly cold moonlight, looked at the people meditating in the lotus position and spoke.

“Let’s go.”

“Are you okay?”

It’s already June and I’ve been drinking with my apprentice for several hours.

If she drank that much, it would have been difficult, but Yuwol’s face turned slightly red and didn’t seem to have changed much.

“What about your father?”

“You’re drunk and sleeping.”

Chaeryeon was impressed. oh my god. Beating your father with alcohol.

“Hehehe. Well done.”

Geomseong was quite proud. When she patted his shoulder, Yuwol grinned and pointed at the map.

“The first place we have to go is Gwiwol Shrine in the southern part of Cheongho, so let’s go from there.”

“I understand. mister. Do you have anything to prepare?”

“Get ready.”

He calmly accepted the gaze looking at him and nodded.

“There will be a fight, so just prepare for it.”

Still, I thought it might be dangerous since it was inside Cheongho Lake, but preparations were thorough as people who took Yuwol’s safety seriously gathered together.

Actually, I wanted to leave Yoo-wol here and take Chae-ryeon with her, but he keeps saying that he has to go, so what can I do?

It was only after dressing him in the armor he had received from Moonwoljeong that Geomseong spoke seriously.

“Now. Let’s go.”

Not much was said as we left Munwoljeong and moved to the southern part of Cheongho Lake.

I just move around while maintaining a slight sense of tension, thinking that an attack might come at any moment.

When they arrived at their destination, Chaeryeon opened her mouth.

“This is the place? Wow.”

The place we arrived at was a fairly well-known place in Cheongho. It is known as a shrine to worship a dragon, so it is a place that people traveling to Cheongho stop by at least once.

I never thought a place like that would be the place to go to the Dragon Temple.

No one so far. No, Chae-ryeon was quite embarrassed that even she, who was very interested in secret places, did not notice.

“There is no need to be ashamed of what you don’t know.”

“Hehe. Because you know a lot of things.”

When Sayun, who was standing next to Yuwol, looked proud, Chaeryeon poked her in the side.

“Don’t you like it so much?”

“Ouch…”

“Let’s sleep. Enough joking. I’ll start from now on.”

Yuwol took out the Taegeukbu from her arms. Take it politely to the shrine and light a candle.

While the soft light was spreading around, he touched various parts of the shrine and injected energy into the Taegeukbu.

When all preparations were completed, Yuwol placed the Taegeukbu in front of the candle-lit table.

“Now is the start.”

The air changes.

The women, centered around Yuwol, noticed at the same time.

The moment Taegeukbu was placed here, the atmosphere around the shrine completely changed.

The chilly but cool night air completely disappears, and a sticky, unpleasant air begins to settle in.

-Kyaaa!!

What resonates with it is a terrible resonance.

While Chae-ryeon flinched, Geomsung, Hong-ryeon, and Sayun raised the Hongseong Shingong.

“In the past, the dragon ascended countless ears and passed that power on to his followers. Those who followed the dragon ascended their ears to the heavens for the dragon’s rest and used the gained power as qualification to go to the dragon’s temple.”

Yuwol, whose expression did not change even as the sound echoed here and there, pointed into the sky.

“The ghosts gathered together and became one guardian.”

Something whitish was coming down from the sky.

It was a terrible energy of death that anyone alive would definitely avoid.

“…Ahh.”

Even Chae-ryeon was overwhelmed when she saw it. Yuwol, seeing her face turn white, spoke calmly.

“It won’t be easy to deal with Gwi with Moon Woljeong’s martial arts skills. So Chaeryeon. You step aside. The rest is at Hongseongmun…”

“Ay! How can you do that?!”

Chaejin, the master of Moonwoljeong, was not afraid. I just put my strength into Tao.

-Aaaa!!

Was it because he thought he was resisting himself?

The giant ear roared again and rushed towards Yuwol, and Geomseong snorted.

“Who dare you attack!!”

With her cries.

The first trial to enter the Dragon Temple has begun.

The ordeal itself didn’t take long. Because Hongseong Shingong itself is good for dealing with ears.

There are two superhumans and one expert.

There was even a superhuman who could handle strong energy, so catching a giant ear was nothing at best.

“Phew. Is it over now?”

“This is over. ruler. Then let’s move on.”

There are a total of four remaining trials. Take care of everything today and go straight to the Dragon Temple.

Yuwol’s ears disappeared, and she picked up a small tile she had dropped and put it in her bosom.

“Where next?”

“North of Cheongho.”

“It’s a bit far. I guess I should use light attack…”

As Chae-ryeon muttered, Geomsung, Hong-ryeon, and Chae-jin’s eyes flashed.

Even if they say that, what about June?

His only weakness is that he is weak in martial arts.

Of course, you can’t use light attack enough to follow them.

In other words, someone has to carry it or carry it on its back.

“Rock, paper, scissors!!”

“Rock, paper, scissors!!”

“Rock, paper, scissors!!”

“Oh my god!”

Chaeryeon was impressed. While playing rock, paper, scissors, you quickly change hands after seeing what your opponent is doing.

As a result, it was not easy to come to a conclusion.

“Is it true that rock, paper, scissors does that…?”

Chae-ryeon muttered as if she was tired, and Sayun, who was watching, raised her hand.

“Don’t do that, just do it in order!”

“Numbers, in order?”

There are four remaining trials.

Then, even if you take turns doing it once, there will still be one left over.

Who does it once?

“Then what about the rest?”

“Uh… wouldn’t it be okay for me or Chae-ryeon to do that?”

The three looked at each other at Sayoon’s fair offer.

If we continue like this, there will be no end.

Maybe that would be better.

“That’s it, now. June. Please hold my neck.”

Grinning, Geomseong hugged Yuwol with a smile that was clearly overflowing with happiness and joy.
