The place where I opened my eyes after entering Tuseonhyeophaengrok was the residence of the Namgung family in Anhui Province.
“… … .”
I lay still and thought carefully about what happened in the last Tuseonhyuphaengrok.
Finally, when I entered Tuseonhyeophaengrok, I married Namgung Hwaran from the Namgung family and officially became the son-in-law of the Namgung family. Thanks to you, my name has become Namgoong Minho.
After that, in commemoration of the marriage, they went on a trip to visit Zhangjiajie via Dongdong Lake and returned. It was quite a long journey through the center of the midfield.
In the process, after hearing the news of Tuma’s death, he cut down the King’s Army, a group of demons belonging to Suramun who had infiltrated the central plains. Jeong Se-geuk, who led the Tiger King’s army, was also killed by the newly learned method of neutralization.
Jeong Se-geuk was a Majin who newly ascended to the position of lord of Suramun after the death of Tuma.
Thanks to this, Suramun, one of the eight tribes of Demonicism, suffered damage close to Bongmun. It was a natural result that Munju died by my hands twice in a row.
‘If I think about it again now, it is a tremendous achievement for a military officer belonging to a political faction. It seems like aggro has been attracted to the Demonic Cult that much.’
Anyway, as a result, Yeonhwa-ro, who washed his face with gold powder, obtained 『Yeonhwa-ro’s Jagi-rok (雜技錄)』, and received the Seven Stars from a man named Cheongwol, the leader of Nakyeongdae, the successor unit of the Murim League and a Taoist of the Shaman sect.牌) was received.
Next time you have a chance to go out, please be sure to visit the shaman group.
‘There are more things that have been cut in the middle and done here and there, but I think that’s roughly the important things.’
So what I would do from now on was simple.
I am trying my best to train while being wary of any possible moves by the devil.
Seueueuu
I gathered my thoughts and got up from the bed. And I checked my body.
‘It will take a day or so to get used to it.’
I thought as I looked at my limbs, which were noticeably shorter compared to reality. The size of the body, including height, has become much smaller.
In Tuseonhyeophaengrok, I changed my appearance and looked as if I had gone back to anti-Roh.
“Hmm… ”
I took a deep breath.
It felt like I was breathing in clean air for the first time in a very long time, and the silvery scent spread through my nose and throughout my body.
A smile automatically formed on my face.
‘This is healing.’
Unlike in reality, I felt the energy of Mother Nature, which was completely preserved. Compared to reality, the density of energy spread in the air was overwhelming.
Maybe it felt that way because the Namgung family’s manor was surrounded by nature. This was because there were dense forests and even a lake in the immediate vicinity of Namgungse.
‘It’s nature… Is it because of [Yggdrasil’s dew]?’
Clearly, the explanation included something about being loved by nature. So, when you enter Tuseonhyeophaengrok, where the appearance of nature is preserved, you may have felt this fact.
However, the world of Tuseonhyeophaengrok was not so backward in civilization that life was inconvenient. No, if I were an ordinary farmer, there would definitely have been some inconveniences, but I am the son-in-law of the Namgung family.
There was no more difficult work for me to do in this house.
Except for observing the unique constitution of my wife, Namgung Hwaran, I am free to do whatever I do.
Of course, as it is a martial arts Sega, if you don’t train and are seen having too much fun, they may get noticed, but from the beginning, their view of me is that I am a late Jisoo with a promising future who has reached the peak at an incredibly young age. The only person who can give attention is Namgung Myeong, the head of the Namgung family and my father-in-law, or Namgung Hyeon, my teacher.
As I was praising myself and raising my nose, I felt like something was missing. It wasn’t long before I realized what was so empty.
Maria’s voice, which I always heard in my head, disappeared.
‘It’s because Maria didn’t bother.’
In the world where there was little room for Maria to be active, the [multi-purpose nanobot] and [biological computer], which could be considered her main body, were registered as baggage, so it was natural for Maria to be quiet.
I was grateful to have someone to talk to whenever I was bored, but I had no choice because I couldn’t count the mileage I earned if I didn’t add souvenirs to my baggage.
However, you can’t seal your martial arts skills and enter a travel destination with a martial arts background, right?
‘I’m sorry to say this, but in this place where there is no internet or electronic devices, the [Guidebook] function built into the ticket is more useful than Maria.’
In addition, I also sealed [Extrasensory Perception – High-Speed Thinking], a souvenir that has always served as a comforting meal to me.
The agility stat that increases reaction speed was much higher than before, and thanks to the martial arts and combat methods used, there was no longer a need to slow down the perceived time every time a battle like before.
It is said that he has become strong enough that he no longer needs to use tricks.
Seueueuu
A white, soft hand stretched out from the bed where I got up. Those arms, which felt somewhat cool, wrapped around my waist.
“Minho, are you awake?”
“Dutch.”
The identity of the owner of the arm was none other than my wife, Namgung Hwaran.
Her silver hair due to her constitution was disheveled on the bed, and the sight was very attractive.
I turned my body from where I was sitting on the bed and fell into Namgung Hwaran’s arms. My wife’s cool embrace and touch gave me a satisfaction that I could never tire of. I feel like I could be held in his arms all day.
On the contrary, Namgung Hwaran hugged me, the warm human hearth, and smiled with satisfaction.
Half a year passed like that.
Whick! Swish!
A training hall that can only be used by the direct descendants of the Namgung family.
For the past six months, I have been coming here almost every day to train my martial arts skills.
Unlike other training centers that were just well-packed dirt, this was a high-quality training center with smooth and hard bluestone.
What is the material of the wooden sword wielded there?
The wooden sword I was holding in my hand was different from ordinary wooden swords, it was a black wooden sword.
The identity of this luxurious wood with a subtle, deep luster is ebony. It was an excellent wood that was not only luxurious in appearance, but its strength was comparable to that of a considerable rock.
The luxury wooden sword that didn’t leave a single scratch even when I hit straw straw scarecrows or logs during training was the wooden sword I used for training.
‘Maybe you can break a flimsy weapon made of miscellaneous metal by just swinging it?’
The ebony tree originally existed in reality, but it felt like its properties had been buffed, perhaps because it was a martial arts world.
If I had to compare it, I could say that I was training in a state-of-the-art gym equipped with luxury equipment, from machines to mats.
Thanks to sleeping in good places, eating good food, and practicing in good places for the past half year, my martial arts level has improved considerably.
I haven’t reached the peak level yet, so it’s still at the peak level, but I guess I can say that I’ve reached a slightly more mature level.
Swish! Whick!
As a swordsman myself, there were times when I was impressed by the swordsmanship that came out much more naturally than before.
Of course, no matter how good the training facilities were, they were not better than reality. There is no cool air conditioner and no music to cheer you up during the difficult training.
But I had Namgung Hwari.
“Up! Take a break and do it!”
“Madam.”
Namgung Hwaran called me from a corner of the training hall, a place reserved for rest.
As I approached her, she handed me ice-cold water.
“Here, it’s cooled water.”
“Thank you.”
It wasn’t just martial arts that changed over the course of half a year. The names Namgung Hwaran and I called each other also changed.
Originally, we got married, but because I was my wife’s brother-in-law and because of our age difference, we were comfortable talking to each other. This is because he did not particularly like to ask his wife to speak respectfully.
However, it wasn’t a problem during the honeymoon, but after returning from the trip, it became a problem when I was with adults at Sega.
My father-in-law, Namgoongmu, saw that we were calling each other comfortably and grabbed the back of our necks and forcibly taught us etiquette. Thanks to this, we became able to respect each other like this unless we were alone together.
‘There are definitely a lot of questions whether it’s because it’s a martial arts world.’
It was annoying, but I still felt like I was in a martial arts world, so I was doing as I was told. Should I say it feels like role-playing? This wasn’t a big problem because it didn’t weaken our love for each other.
While I was resting with Hwaran for a while, a person came running in from the entrance of the training ground.
It was Baek Geon, a priest who also had Elder Namgung-hyeon as his teacher.
Although he had the elder as his teacher, Baek Geon was not permitted to train in this training hall. He was not a direct descendant of the Namgung family, nor was he a son-in-law like me. That meant that I came here not to practice, but to find people.
Sure enough, Baek Geon, who was turning his head, saw me and came running. He first showed courtesy to Namgung Hwaran and spoke to me.
“Minho’s death penalty!”
“Oh? I am here.”
“Do you know it as Heuksi (black city)?”
