Chapter 192
Chapter 192. Messenger from the Past (2)
Not a single person from Sojeong Squad had ever even gone near the Murim Academy.
To bastards who barely got by collecting monthly pay with flawed martial arts, the Murim Academy was no different from another world they could not approach.
For those bastards, for whom even longing for it was a luxury, the only thing they could do was violently hate those from the Murim Academy.
Among them, the worst by far was Yaryul Jae.
Wë bn о̆ v еl̈ Ė n̊ù m̄ а̀
The bastard usually had little to say, but whenever he saw someone from the Murim Academy, his eyes would flip over in rage.
Then, after picking a fight like that, if the other party used even a light hand, he would counterattack with his half-finished martial arts.

Of course, the end of every such quarrel was always Yaryul Jae lying on the ground and receiving humiliation.
As if he never got sick of it, Yaryul Jae picked fights with Murim Academy graduates every time, and every time he got beaten half to death.
That was clearly how it had been.
It had seemed there could never be any connection between him and the Murim Academy…….
Ẇе̊.b̀ nо v̈еl̄ Еn̊u m ӓ
‘What the hell is that kid?’
Yaryul Jae had never once said that someone from his sect had entered the Murim Academy.
To begin with, the Flowing Cloud Sect’s martial arts were the kind that had no one-strike killing technique.
It was not a sect favored by those who dreamed of becoming martial artists.

On top of that, because its martial arts had not even been completed, he had said the sect was always plagued by poverty.
Yaryul Jae had also said he had spent his entire life as a wanderer to complete the half-finished martial arts of his sect before entering the Murim Alliance.
Ӗ n̈ûm̊ӓ .id̆
For a sect with neither strength nor money to take the Regular Exam was, at this point, something close to outright impossible…….
“Hey, you fucking bastards! All of you come at me!”
At the ringing voice that broke through my thoughts before I knew it, I looked ahead.
The small-built Academy student who had flung the big man down was shouting for the next bastard to come out, but none of those watching moved.
‘As expected, it’s still half-finished.’
Behind him, the big man who had been thrown down rose from his spot as though nothing had happened, grabbed the small-built Academy student by the shoulder, and lightly kicked his leg.

THUD.
The Academy student’s posture collapsed powerlessly.
THWACK.
Then the big man’s kick struck the Academy student’s face, and the Academy student’s face was soon covered in blood.
‘This isn’t the time for this.’
I drew up my inner arts and lightly shot out killing intent.

“!!”
Those who had been watching leisurely nearby opened their eyes wide and sprang up from their spots.

I moved my steps slowly and warned them.
“Why don’t you stop there?”
The big man, too, could no longer move his body and only glared at me.
I smiled brightly at him.

“You see, I’m in a good mood today.”
“……?”
That expression saying he had no idea what I meant.
Well, it wasn’t like I’d said it so he would understand in the first place.

I waved my hand in front of the bastard’s face as if shooing away a fly.
“Would you kindly get lost?”
Wẽ b n о̃ v̄ ē l̀ Ѐň_um a
Grind-
The sound of grinding teeth rang out murderously, and his face crumpled at once.
“That is a harsh way to speak, Jin So-un.”
At that moment, among those watching, someone wearing the clothes of the Shandong Ak Clan opened his mouth.
I think his name was Ak Ju-pyeong or something.
“This is a matter of personal grievance. Do not interfere and just leave.”

Oh?
Looks like that bastard is the leader.
“Hmm, surely you don’t know what the word ‘personal’ means? How many of you bastards are there?”
I tilted my head as I looked at him, then struck my forehead with an exaggerated ‘THWACK.’
“Ah! That’s right, I heard the Ak Clan doesn’t teach letters!”
A vein bulged on the bastard’s forehead.
Е̂ňú m̌a. іd̄
“How dare you insult my clan!”
“Now there’s a personal grievance between you and me too. Right?”

“…….”
“As the Academy Representative, I can’t just watch this kind of shit and let it pass.”
I crooked a finger at him.
“Come at me and have a round if you’re confident, or get lost.”
W ěḃ n о v̊ е̌l Ѐn u ṁӓ
At my words, the bastard laughed faintly.
“Do you still think you are the Academy Representative?”
Look at this bastard?
He just keeps buzzing.

This is why you can’t admonish idiots with words.
I picked at my ear and raised my presence.

“Ah, I said get lost, you bastards!”
When I immediately blasted out killing intent, the bastards hurriedly retreated.
“……Grr!”
As if they only then realized they had backed away, the bastards’ faces flushed bright red.
Ak Ju-pyeong, who had been chewing his lips, abruptly turned around.
“Let us go.”

When their stupid leader yelped and backed down a step, the bastards who had been hovering around also glared at me once each, then followed him to the other side.
“Tsk. They just never listen when you speak nicely.”
Clicking my tongue, I approached the guy who had been getting beaten until now.
‘I’ve never seen his face before…….’
I checked whether he might be someone related to Yaryul Jae, but his impression was completely different from his.
The only thing they had in common was that the symbol of the sect embroidered on his clothes was the same.

“Hey, are you all right?”
When I shook his shoulder, the Academy student, who had been curled up protecting his head, suddenly raised his eyes.

Then he sprang up from his spot.
“C-come at me! Come at me, you bastards!”
Then he immediately took a combat stance.
He was born with guts, all right.

Born with them.
“They’re gone. Stop it.”
“……They’re gone?”
Only then did the Academy student sweep his gaze around.

I nodded at him and tried to ask what I was curious about.
“You, you’re from the Flowing Cloud Sect…….”
Ŵе ḃ nо̃ṽ е̊l̆_ Ӗ ṅ_û m a
“Where did those bastards go?!”
“…….”
However, the excited bastard glared at me with his eyes bulging.
“I chased them off. So now you can relax and…….”
“You chased them off?”
The small-built Academy student trembled all over.

“Who are you to chase those bastards off?! I was just a little more away from giving them a proper education!”
“…….”
This bastard and that bastard alike must not have studied letters at all.
They use the phrase ‘proper education’ in a truly strange way.
“Bring those bastards here right now! Bring them here!”
No, how am I supposed to bring back bastards I chased away?

“Then you get beaten in their place!”
The small-built brat grabbed my hand and tried to unfold Snowflower of the Flowing Cloud Divine Art.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
If Lotus was a counterattack technique, Snowflower was an offensive technique.
Since it could not use the opponent’s strength, its principle was to maximize one’s own qi, yet perhaps because the small-built brat knew nothing of that, he tried to twist my hand by force.
‘This little bastard…….’
He’s crossing the line, huh?
Е n ûm̈ а̌ .і ḋ.
My patience finally ran out, so I lightly drew up my inner arts and lifted the bastard whole.
Then I slammed him into the ground.
BOOM!
“Guhk!”

The shock was so great that the brat vomited up what he had eaten.
Now we should be able to have a conversation.
Е n u m̆.а̃ . і̄d
“Now, calm down and let’s talk…….”
But before I could finish speaking, the brat leapt up and started running away.
“Y-you just wait! Jin So-un! I’ll definitely get revenge! Watch the back of your head!”
After saying that, he limped away at a speed that wasn’t even very fast.
“Ha!”
I let out a hollow laugh at the absurd situation.
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
In the end, I had not obtained a single piece of information I wanted, but there was one thing I knew for certain.
That bastard was somehow related to Yaryul Jae.
No, he was probably his brother.
‘For that damned personality to be so identical, there’s no way it’s possible unless it’s the power of bloodline.’
For some reason, a sense of longing bloomed in my chest.

I visited the dormitory and looked for Jang Woo-jae.
Since Jang Woo-jae was the central figure for those without affiliation, I thought he might know about him.

“Ah…… do you mean that hardheaded fellow?”
Sure enough, even though I had only explained a little about his appearance, Jang Woo-jae quickly understood.
“Yuhun Sect? Flowing Cloud Sect? In any case, I remember it was some sect like that.”
“He really is from the Flowing Cloud Sect?”
Ѐ ńu ma
“Do you happen to know where that is? It was a name I had heard for the first time, so I did not remember it well.”
“Ah, I’ve heard of it before.”
Jang Woo-jae nodded a couple of times.
“In any case, he is a rather unusual fellow. He does not spend time with anyone, and I have not seen him go out to drink or leave privately either. He seems to carve out time every day to train, but his skill does not seem to improve that greatly.”

“Are the others ostracizing him?”
Jang Woo-jae scratched his cheek with a finger.
Е ǹ ú m̈ a
“Well, the Orthodox Path Association, the Righteous Path Association, and the Twelve Peak Citadels never treated us as people to begin with, do they? Because of that, those of us on this side tend to stick together fairly well.”
“Then why?”
“That is…… he is normally so quiet.”
“……Then what did you mean earlier by hardheaded?”
Jang Woo-jae rolled his eyes as if searching through his memories.
“That is, previously, he had a quarrel with someone from the Orthodox Path Association. Well, it was not a major matter. That fellow demanded an apology, but the person from the Orthodox Path Association ignored him and walked past.”

“And?”
Jang Woo-jae paused for a moment, then raised both hands into the air and answered.
“At that time, that fellow took a stone and struck the head of the Orthodox Path Association member…….”
Ha, insane…….
Even the shit he does is exactly like someone else I know.
“After that, the Orthodox Path Association took revenge on that fellow as a group. But that fellow then went and harmed each of them one by one again……. That has already been continuing for three months.”
Ê n ú m̀ â. і d
“What a spectacle.”
“On top of that, when someone tries to help him, he attacks that person too……. So we have no way to do anything about it.”

“As expected, he’s even crazier than I thought…….”
“Yes?”
“Ah, no. I was just thinking to myself. But…….”
I looked at Jang Woo-jae and tilted my head.
Е̄ n̆um а..і̀d̀
“Why do you keep using formal speech?”
“Ah, haha. This is simply more comfortable for me.”
“…….”
“Does it make you uncomfortable?”

“No, not particularly.”
Jang Woo-jae’s eyes sparkled like those of a puppy wagging its tail while looking at its master.
Ě nùm̄.а. i d̈
“Then may I continue speaking like this from now on?”
“Well, if that’s more comfortable for you…….”
Just as I finished the conversation with Jang Woo-jae and was about to turn around,
I remembered a question I had not yet asked.
“Come to think of it, what was that guy’s name?”
“His name? ……Ah! I remembered because it was an unusual name.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“Unusual?”
Jang Woo-jae nodded vigorously.
“Yes. His name was Yaryul Geuk.”
“…….”
See?
I told you I was right.
Е̊numа̃. і́.ď
That bastard, whose head was packed full of reckless bravado instead of a brain, was definitely Yaryul Jae’s blood kin.

At this point, a question arose.
Why had Yaryul Jae never spoken about his younger brother?
He was a taciturn friend, but he was not the type to tightly hide his own story either.
A penniless sect, and half-finished martial arts.
Еñû m̃а̄
Yaryul Jae had said that he lived as a wanderer in his youth to resolve those two things.
Just as the fastest secret to completing a unique martial art was to fight many real battles, Yaryul Jae had tried to send money to his poor sect while simultaneously completing the Flowing Cloud Divine Art.
However, a fairy-tale story in which one successfully completed a solitary journey through the martial world and ultimately completed one’s martial arts was possible only for special beings like Hyeok Mu-gang.
As had been the case with the seniors of my sect, Yaryul Jae also ultimately failed to complete his half-finished martial arts.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The place he flowed into after wandering and wandering was the Murim Alliance’s Sojeong Squad.
Ironically, when Yaryul Jae gave up on everything, he finally completed the Flowing Cloud Divine Art, but by then, it was already long after the Great Righteous-Demonic War had broken out.
Èn ü m̃ӓ
It was seven years after the Flowing Cloud Sect had been uprooted down to its very roots.
[Damn it, to think this ended up being completed after all.]
As if he was not particularly pleased with himself for having completed the martial art, Yaryul Jae had suffered and drunk more alcohol than usual.
‘What the hell had happened? Was their relationship that bad?’
In any case, I wanted to hear the story from Yaryul Geuk directly, so I searched for him.
According to what I knew from my past life, by now, Yaryul Jae would have ultimately recognized his limits, given up his life as a wanderer, and be living like a ruined man.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
If I could pass the completed Flowing Cloud Divine Art to Yaryul Jae through Yaryul Geuk, wouldn’t that bastard’s present life change at least a little?
But the bastard was nowhere to be seen, not in the Academy classrooms, nor in the eight-person dormitory room where he was staying.
‘Is he getting beaten by the Orthodox Path Association bastards again?’
In the end, just as I was about to give up searching for the bastard and return,
I sensed something flying at me from behind.
I slightly turned my head to avoid it, and at the same time snatched the flying thing with my hand.
Ẃӗb̊ṅ о̂ v̇е́l Е̃n̂ u̇mа̀
‘A ro, ……a rock?’
In my hand was a rock with sharp angles in all sorts of places.

“Ha…….”
I was so dumbfounded that I turned my head toward the direction the rock had flown from.
“That bastard!”
Yaryul Geuk, with a startled expression, was turning his body and running away like mad.
Ӗ ǹú m̄ а
Even as he fled, his mouth worked hard.
“J-Jin So-un! Watch yourself on the road at night!”
Last time, after telling me to watch the back of my head, he had thrown a rock, so this time, was he saying he would ambush me at night?
“No one would ever think he wasn’t Yaryul Jae’s blood kin.”
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
The reason Yaryul Jae had never spoken about his younger brother was probably that their relationship was extremely bad.
Wasn’t it said that a person with a foul personality hated someone with the same personality most of all?
Ẁе b̌ n̆ о̀ v̊еl Ѐn uḿ а
Was that called a kind of self-loathing?
“At this rate, even trying to help him will only give me a headache.”
It seemed it was not yet the time to talk to the bastard.
I gave up chasing him and returned to the dormitory.

“Huff, huff, huff.”

After fleeing for quite some time and entering the back of a building, Yaryul Geuk poked his head out and checked whether Jin So-un was chasing him.
Thankfully, he could not sense any sign of pursuit.
“Hmph! See that! Now he’ll be so scared of my attacks that he won’t be able to sleep!”
After laughing like that for quite some time, Yaryul Geuk slowly stopped laughing.
“Geuk, what on earth are you doing?”
Yaryul Geuk shook his head in self-disgust.
Е nũ mа̃ .і̆ d̂
Jin So-un was a legendary existence.
Though he belonged to the One Hundred Eight Peaks, he was from a sect that was utterly insignificant even compared to the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
In such circumstances, he had taken only his Junior Brothers, sat for the Regular Exam, and seized the top score.
By contrast, Yaryul Geuk had come all the way to the Academy using his brothers’ sacrifices as a stepping stone, yet far from thinking of completing his martial arts, he only repeated brawls every day.
‘That’s why I said I wouldn’t come.’
His eldest brother, who had set out into the martial world early on saying he would complete their half-finished martial arts, had ultimately failed.
W ěb nо v ė l Е̃n̊ u̇ m̂ а
Then he had put Yaryul Geuk in the Academy, saying that he could do it.
During the Regular Exam, his second eldest brother died, and his third eldest brother was crippled.
His eldest brother had told him not to worry about it at all and to devote himself to his studies, but could that be as easy as saying the words?
Even so, after trying desperately to live up to his brothers’ expectations, there was one fact he realized.
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
‘……I can’t do it.’
Whenever he finished a day and lay down to sleep, he would think it.
W̌ е b̊ n̆ о̆ ve ĺ En úm̈a
That he wished he could close his eyes just like this.
That he wished he would never again see the sun that rose tomorrow.
That was why he hated Jin So-un.
Because he shone so brightly.
Because he seemed far too immense.
The sight of him standing proudly before the strong.
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
The sight of him moving forward without wavering no matter what problem struck.
It was utterly contemptible.
But soon, the arrow of contempt turned and flew toward himself.
‘No……. The contemptible one is me.’
But at this point, there was nothing he could do.
Behind him, his second eldest brother’s death and his third eldest brother’s severed arm blocked the way, while ahead of him, an unscalable, solid, high wall stood in his path.
Ě n̆ ŭ m̌а
“When will I be able to go see Second Brother…….”
Today especially, his second eldest brother, who had smiled gently, came to mind.

He shook off his thoughts and moved his steps.
Because if he was going to launch a surprise attack at night, it would be best to sleep even a little now.
At that moment,
“So you were here.”
Е nŭm̀ à.ї_d
At the unpleasant voice that came from behind him, his head snapped up.
Ak Ju-pyeong.
The bastard who had been the beginning of this ill-fated tie.
Around him stood the Orthodox Path Association bastards who always stuck to him.

There were three times as many as usual.
“Fucking bastards. You’re fighting dirty…….”
W.e bnо̂v̊.еl Е̄ n̂ ŭ m̃ а̌
“Do not worry. Only one of us will deal with you at a time.”
“Fuck off!”
After giving them the middle finger, Yaryul Geuk began running with all his strength in the opposite direction from where the bastards had appeared.
However, before he could take even a few steps, a kick shot out from the alley and sent his body floating into the air.
CRASH.
“Guhk.”

He had been kicked so hard that his insides churned.
Ak Ju-pyeong approached with slow steps and crouched down.
“What is your relationship with Jin So-un?”
Crouching there, Ak Ju-pyeong stared steadily at him.
Did this bastard fear Jin So-un too?
“Why are you curious about that?”
Ë nûm a
“Because we have something we are preparing. If you have a relationship with Jin So-un, I will postpone your punishment for a little while.”
Was he saying Yaryul Geuk could get through this crisis if he sold Jin So-un’s name?
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
“Pfft.”
“You laugh?”
Yaryul Geuk swallowed the mockery that seemed ready to burst out at any moment.
Had he become so ugly that he had to sell the name of the bastard he despised?
E̊ńũm̀ а
“Why would I have any relationship with a bastard like Jin So-un?”
“…….”
Yaryul Geuk’s eyes flashed like a wildcat’s.
A smile formed at Ak Ju-pyeong’s lips.

“That is fortunate. I would have felt rather unpleasant about postponing trampling you.”
Without erasing the smile, Ak Ju-pyeong slowly straightened himself.

It was the exact opposite of his second eldest brother’s smile.
