“Huh? ”

…I raised my upper body straight up.

A familiar yard came into view.

I was looking around blankly, and then I realized the situation and stroked my forehead.

“Was it a dream?…”

When I think about it now, it was the worst dream of all dreams. Who was the most beautiful girl in the province that wouldn’t even appear in a cheap Miyeon poem? From Yeo Il-ye wearing an eye patch to Rider Dang Do-yeon and Iljin Dang So-yeol, it was a total mess.

What kind of frivolous side activity is this in Korean schools where people are so tired of the college entrance exam that they force them to study on their own during physical education class?

Even if it’s a dream, it’s so unrealistic.

“Phew.”

I grumbled and sighed.

It was a dream, but at the last moment, I couldn’t ignore it as a dream.

The situation at the gym in my dream was a realistic expression of the embarrassment I felt yesterday.

Through Ilseong, I learned about Hyeok Kirin’s feelings.

And the fact that I read Hyeok Kirin’s mind will definitely be revealed in today’s Jinbeop practice.

Just as I was able to read Hyuk Kirin’s mind, this concern that is filling my head right now will also become known to others the moment Oh Seong-jin’s thunderous voice unfolds.

So, I guess I’ll have to come to a conclusion one way or another before today’s strategy practice begins.

It was obvious who I needed to go to for that purpose.

A person who created this system and understands all its principles.

It was Seo Mun-yeon.

“Come in.”

Even though it was early in the morning, Seo Mun-yeon was awake. No, Seo Mun-yeon was writing something in calligraphy on a piece of paper without even looking at her, and it looked like she hadn’t slept.

“I came here because I wanted to ask you a few things.”

“Say.”

“When I developed Oh Seong-jin, I felt like I was reading other people’s minds. Will the same situation happen in the future when we unfold the Five Star Jin?”

“If it is severe, it will not decrease.”

I frowned at Seo Mun-yeon’s words.

“Wouldn’t that be a problem?”

“If you think that finding out your true feelings without any pretense is a problem, then it would be a problem. This is truly a novel story. Didn’t you already understand that Ohseongjin can be established because the hearts are connected?”

That was correct.

Ohseongjin is a fighting method based on the premise that the hearts can be connected and control the energy of others.

Even though I was fully aware of the fact, I was speaking harshly.

“Are you afraid? Will all your true intentions be revealed and what will happen as a result? If so, give up now.”

Seo Moon-yeon accurately pinpointed my intentions.

I’m afraid.

Maybe so.

To be honest, Hyuk Kirin’s love affair was beyond embarrassing. If I start practicing Jinbeop like this, the only emotion I will convey to others will be embarrassment.

What would Hyuk Kirin think after receiving such feelings?

I couldn’t shake that thought.

“In the end, Oh Seong-jin is a method that connects the heart and mind. If you can’t handle the conflict of your hearts colliding with each other, you can’t maintain it.”

…a collision.

“If you feel like you can’t handle it, you can always give up.”

Give up.

I shook my head.

“You can’t do that.”

It wasn’t simply because he didn’t want to give up the means to confront the spiritual creatures of the blood religion.

Because my heart was connected, I received such perplexing emotions and was troubled…but those were not the only emotions I received.

I recalled the feelings I received from my companions.

Strong will to achieve Five Stars.

My companions were challenging Oh Seong-jin with as much determination as me… maybe even stronger than me.

I know that kind of will, but can I give up just because I don’t want to convey difficult feelings to Hyeok Kirin?

“…Yes, I guess so.”

In response to my answer, Seo Mun-yeon muttered.

In the end, I guessed that I would come to this conclusion.

“Strike practice will start in the afternoon, so prepare your mind.”

Seo Mun-yeon looked at me intently and said.

“Good luck.”

*** ***

Seo Mun-yeon recalled her first meeting with Zhuge Sheng-chan.

The meeting between the two took place in a new cultural sect.

Seo Mun-yeon was willing to employ any means to ensure the effectiveness of Jinbeop.

And Zhuge Sungchan, who sticks to stable principles while preparing for any emergency.

As soon as the two saw each other face to face, they started fighting.

However, since we had no choice but to acknowledge each other’s skills while working together, we naturally became interested in each other’s methods.

So, step by step, the distance became closer and eventually they became lovers.

The two married with everyone’s blessing, and Seo Mun-yeon became Seong-chan’s wife and lived in the Jegal family.

It would have been nice if everything had gone smoothly and we could have lived our lives for a hundred years, but where in life could things go that easily?

It was inevitable that conflict would arise between the Jinbeopsa of the Zhuge Dynasty, who could be said to be right among the right, and Seo Mun-yeon, who chose the left.

Seo Mun-yeon and Zhuge Sung-chan, a young and passionate Jinbeopsa couple, tried to resolve such conflicts with success.

Let’s create an absolute truth that even the Zhuge Dynasty’s true believers can’t resist without acknowledging Seo Wen-yeon’s left path.

So the two people came together and continued to research.

The more it happened, the more the two realized one fact.

Two people who can be said to be polar opposites. Because of their different polarities, they were attracted to each other and became lovers, but the two still do not fully understand each other.

I also realized that it would take a long time for Zhuge Shengchan to fully understand Xu Wenyan’s left way and for Xu Wenyan to fully understand Zhuge Shengchan’s right way.

Therefore, Seo Mun-yeon created a technique.

Tongsimsul (

通心術).

A technique to connect each other’s hearts.

Although the two people knew well that alcohol, which connects one’s heart to another, was close to taboo, they were confident that they could handle Tongsimjutsu.

Although we did not fully understand each other’s tactics.

Because I thought I completely understood that feeling.

Zhuge Sungchan, a master of Udo’s Jinbeop. And Seo Mun-yeon, who mastered the left-hand path.

Wouldn’t it be possible to draw a completely flawless strategy by treating the principles of left and right in the minds of two people as one?

As a married couple and as Jinbeop masters at the same time, the two casted a spell with the expectation that they could leave a great mark on the history of Jinbeop.

‘And…it ended up like this.’

Seo Wen-yeon and Zhuge Sheng-chan broke up.

All that was left was an irreparable wound…and the knowledge of Zhuge Sungchan’s true law that remained in his head.

Seo Mun-yeon looked at Ho Cheon-an and his group, who were still holding Oh Seong-jin’s momentum with a throbbing heart.

‘Will they be able to overcome it?’

Seo Mun-yeon smiled self-deprecatingly.

What right do you have to have such expectations from a subject who passed on the true method in hopes of splitting up the party rather than recklessly confronting the blood cult?

“Let’s get started.”

Seo Mun-yeon controlled his mind like that and swung the gakmun sword. The energy emitted from the Gagmun Sword interferes with the formation, breaking the balance of the five energies and directing them to the center of the brain energy.

thunder.

The moment the thundering sound unfolded, Hyeok Kirin’s expression changed.

‘You got caught.’

Hyeok Kirin’s heart became dizzy. Ho Cheon-an received the love that Hyeok Kirin harbored. Because the difficulty and embarrassment that Ho Cheon-an felt was conveyed.

Hyeok Gi-rin accepted Ho Cheon-an’s feelings one by one.

The wish that Hyeok Kirin, who had been going back and forth between two social statuses and causing conflict with Yoo Jeong, would truly be happy.

The surprise I felt when I showed up with the Red Ghost Army.

The urge to pat the top of my head during my special gambling training.

And even though he has a more complex personal history than anyone else, he is even grateful that he is working hard in his Jinbeop training.

Hyuk Kirin felt sad amidst the desperately conveyed emotions.

Numerous emotions conveyed by Ho Cheon-an.

Most of those feelings were positive, but there was no ‘compassion’ anywhere.

“Ilseong.”

The flow of the lineup has changed. Hyeok Kirin calmed down as he felt the energy within the formation, which had been tense as if it could explode at any moment, subsiding calmly.

Ho Cheon-an’s heart had no affection for Hyuk Kirin anywhere.

Hyeok Gi-rin, who confirmed that feeling, was hurt.

Because there was no love for Hyuk Kirin in Ho Cheon-an’s heart.

However, there was determination in the heart that Ho Cheon-an sent.

I don’t know how to deal with the feelings I received from Hyeok Kirin.

I am determined to never treat that feeling lightly or ignore it.

‘Then I will wait.’

Hyeok Kirin answered like that.

“Bingseong.”

The lineup changed once again.

Hyeok Kirin looked at the black cat with a nervous feeling. A black cat, Hocheonan’s lover. What kind of feelings does such a black cat harbor between Hyeok Kirin and Ho Cheon An?

Even if they decided to cooperate, wouldn’t they get angry at the emotional exchange between Ho Cheon-an and Hyuk Kirin?

Hyuk Kirin, who was thinking like that, couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the emotions flowing into the black cat.

“Foot.”

Because Black Cat’s feelings of being very angry at Ho Cheon-an’s lack of sense were conveyed without filtering.

The complex emotions that follow are conveyed.

A feeling of concern for Hyeok Kirin. And the feeling of jealousy at the same time. Even worries about the future.

An indescribably complex mind mixed with positivity and negativity.

Hyeok Kirin accepted Heukmyo’s complex feelings as they were.

“Black Star.”

Hyeok Kirin smiled bitterly as the rumors of Dokgo conflict flowed through his mind.

Because Dokgo Yi-seol did not try to hide his feelings at all, stronger emotions penetrated Hyuk Kirin’s heart than anyone else’s.

Obsession with Hocheonan.

Hyeok Kirin smiled bitterly as he felt the emotions of Dokgo Iseol, who endured the pain of changing himself and did not hide his desire to win Hocheonan’s heart.

Dokgo Iseol is burning his heart to win Hocheon-an at any cost.

However, behind it all, Ho Cheon-an’s weak side was revealed, as he did not want to do anything that would make him sad, and at the same time, he did not want to be abandoned.

It was impossible to hate him comfortably.

“Daesung.”

Hyeok Kirin gasped at the final change in formation.

Yeo Il-ye, Ho Cheon-an’s lover and his priest.

Black cat. Dang Do-yeon. Party fever. The Dok-Go theory. Although it could not be said that any one of them had a deep relationship, it was nothing compared to the relationship with Yeo Il-ye.

From fortune-telling, to studying with fellow students, sometimes confronting them, sometimes admonishing them, we have come to where we are now.

A priest and a priest who have feelings for the same person.

Such a situation made Hyuk Kirin feel reassured, embarrassed, and also sorry.

That’s why Hyuk Kirin was extremely curious about Yeo Il-ye’s true intentions.

‘What kind of intentions does the priest have?’

It was when Hyuk Kirin was thinking about this while feeling the energy of the changing strategy.

Suddenly, the flow of the battle stopped.

The flow of energy, which had been communicating more smoothly than ever before, was suddenly cut off, and in an instant, the energy of the true law was scattered in all directions.

The energy of Jinbeop, which had reached its peak, was released, and an internal wind enveloped the entire group.

The eyes of the group were gathered in one place as they adjusted their hair and the hems of their clothes swaying in the wind.

Yeo-il-ye.

This was because Yeo Il-ye stopped the flow of internal energy and stopped the formation.

“Ah…”

Yeo Il-ye, who received the gaze of the group, stepped back with a pale face. Looking at that, the companions were able to intuit Yeo Il-ye’s feelings even though they did not connect with her heart.

It is said that Yeo Il-ye dispersed the flow of Jinbeop without even realizing it.

…and I was able to guess the reason right away.

Because I didn’t want my true feelings to be revealed.

“Well, I…”

Yeo Il-ye looked at her companions with eyes filled with confusion.

Yeo Il-ye’s shoulders trembled as she met Hyeok Gi-rin’s gaze.

“I’m sorry..”

What does it mean to be sorry? Yeo Il-ye ran away, leaving behind an apology that even Yeo Il-ye herself probably didn’t know exactly what it meant.

The group all looked in the direction where Yeo Il-ye ran away with eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

Seo Mun-yeon turned to look at the group and thought.

As always.

Problems tend to arise in unexpected places.
