16 – Episode 16 Weight

1.

“……Yes?”

Confused, Eunho asks again, and Hosohyeon swallows a gasp.

Did she overdo it? Normally, there are many cases where people come wanting to become her disciple, but it’s rare for someone to ask her to let them become a disciple…

“Ahem. I am Mangju Hoso-hyeon.”

“Yes… Yes?”

Eunho speaks with trembling words. Was she really Mangju? She was considering it.

“Gongja’s sword doesn’t hold anything, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a beautiful sword. If I can put something in that sword… I want to try.”

Eunho thought about it.

Honestly, the training just now was good. She could understand what was lacking and what needed improvement.

But somehow… it feels like crossing a river that should not be crossed…

“Hmm…”

“I can be the apprentice of the master…”

“Ah..Grandmother.”

“Go!!!”

-Boom!

A piercing sound, which seemed like it should not come from a human body, came out of the master’s head.

“Ow ow…oh my…are you a martial artist?”

“Master. What are you doing here?”

“I was asking the person who has the potential to be an apprentice to come in…”

“Go!!!”

“Ugh..!”

“Huh. Just wait and see our grandson’s color change. I was going to teach everything when the time comes..!”

“Grandson? This guy?”

.

.

.

“Then~ let the martial arts competition… begin!!!”

-Boom! Bang!

Wiso-hyun was being intimidated by the senior martial artist Yoo Adokzon.

“Se..senior. Please stop being angry…”

“Ugh, just get lost already?!”

“Yes…”

It was a competition they unexpectedly saw near grandmother’s vicinity. In modern terms, it was like a VIP seat with a very good view.

Strictly speaking.. they say it was good.

You have to see it.

He could feel the weight of the master hitting his forehead, and he could compare it to a football field, but there was no way he could sense the entire ritual ground, even with all his energy and concentration.

I probably need to be at least at the level of a high 5th dan, both in martial arts and external force, to be able to do that.

Sounds of powerful energy were coming from the left direction of grandmother.

“I…I see the Three Masters!!”

Thud! Sounds of the other officials in the VIP seats taking control were heard.

Grandmother grumbled as if she were upset.

“Those damn bastards didn’t do a thing when I came.”

“Hey, Jang Myung-soon. Looks like you haven’t conceded yet… Isn’t it time we see the end between us?”

The grandmother, dressed in a Zen-like blue and crimson robe, was naturally more elegant than our grandmother, but according to the younger one, she was one of the taller women.

“Don’t talk nonsense about our relationship. It’s not like she chased me away as if I were dead. I wanted her to come find me so I could hit her.”

“Well… let’s settle this here and now.”

Upon hearing Ji-jon’s words, Wi So-hyun and Geom-jon Gu Yeong-hwang intervened.

“Please hold back today…”

“What about Hong-cho? You said meeting her was enjoyable. Making such a fuss about finding her. Are you two dating? Hong-cho gave up her life for you.”

“Don’t call my resolution third-rate love!! This is a competition!”

“You’re all getting old… and still quite lively.”

Finally, Cheon-jon Cheon-shin.

Unlike their biting relationship with each other, she despised Heaven’s Horse.

“Use that energy to protect it this time. The Devil’s Sect is coming for sure.”

“Did you get any information?”

“I found traces of the Devil’s Sect nearby.”

“Damn it. I came here to get information on the Devil’s Sect. As I mentioned before…”

“Are you talking about Mo Yong-se? (Referring to the Devil’s Sect Leader)”

Wi So-hyun whispered softly. Jang Myung-soon nodded.

“I’ve brought some material.”

While Jang Myung-soon was scanning through the material, the competition began.

“Eun-ho, do you have anything to watch? Let’s go sightseeing with Grandma.”

“We should cheer for Yeon-ha-nim and Ya-hwa too. And obviously, for Cheol-hoon.”

“Ah, come on.”

Jang Myung-soon sighed in regret. She felt uneasy being in a place where something unpredictable could happen at any moment.

“If only I were alone… It would have been different.”

*Knock.*

“Oh no, Grandma! I’m not a kid anymore!”

Jang Myung-soon, who roughly stroked Eun-ho’s hair, also stopped looking at the material and began to focus on the match.

As many masters from the continent came for the competition, the format of the martial arts was chaotic.

No matter how spacious it was, they divided into several groups and performed martial arts one group at a time.

The martial arts competition offers three prizes for one who satisfies all four categories: the internal martial art, external martial art, martial art of body generation, and battle art.

Yeong-ha and Baek Ya-hwa easily passed the preliminary and first rounds of the competition.

Regardless, making it through the first and second rounds was indeed a way of screening participants.

I concentrated on the match, listening to my grandmother’s intense commentary.

Of course, it was hard to see directly because the arena was too wide and there were many disruptive elements such as shouting and the like.

“Ah, what’s this? Sons who have been cured of internal injuries are fighting. If you win, I will break your legs!”

2.

“…………..”

“Hmm, it seems like even Nam Kyoong-se-ga’s troublemaker suffered from internal injuries.”

“A troublemaker of Nam Kyoong-ga’s? Well, it’s been a month since he left home, so it’s about time for that rumor to spread.”

“Perhaps Yeong-ha-nim has an affection for Eun-ho?”

“…….It’s hard to deny. He seems to have fluttered after seeing his face. It hurts a little, but…”

Baek Cheol-hoon said somewhat annoyed.

“Is there something wrong with Eun-ho?”

“Absolutely not. It’s just…”

He looked at Eun-ho, who was cheering in the opposite direction.

“I sent my cheers to the opposite side of here, the guardian who is my teacher and mother(?) told me to. And when she mentioned that, Eun-ho sent cheers to this side and seemed a little embarrassed.”

“My mother married my father just by seeing his face. He treated her well, not as a concubine, but as a wife. Maybe that’s why I hoped to be attracted to a man’s heart rather than his face. Of course, Eun-ho’s heart is clearer and purer than any lake. However…”

“Heh, something special. You wanted something more like a fairy tale.”

Baek Cheol-hoon muttered with a shiny bald head reflecting in the sunlight.

“Something more fateful, something that draws each other towards each other.”

“Right. The current situation… I’m just being drawn to Eun-ho. More than anything. The time is… too short. The time we spent together is too short… That gap in time is the problem.”

“I didn’t know that Nam Kyoong-ga’s next head would like fairy tales that boys would like.”

“I didn’t know that. But…”

Nam Kyoong Yeon-ha’s golden eyes. The black pupils shone sharply.

“I think this will be the same starting point for Eun-ho and me.”

“Oh?”

“Winning here. If Eun-ho acknowledges me, he… might see me as a woman. Maybe… I will be able to see every aspect of Eun-ho that I wanted. So…”

– Scrreech…

“You have to go down here.”

I gave him a cold, meaningful look.

The NaeHo sword was a famous sword, although different from the one referred to as the Mother of Dragons, it was still considered a powerful sword.

“I am sorry, but I have also received a great favor from Eun-ho…”

Baek Cheon-hun was considered the most exceptional disciple among the three major disciples of Sorimsa.

Huwoowooong.

The name of the spear, which was now turning threateningly, was Baekma Spear.

“I have to show my achievements to my friend.”

Paang!!!

As the firecracker announcing the match exploded, Namgung Yeon-ha flew up like a flash.

“Derived from Changgung Mu Ae Swordsmanship.”

Kwa-rung!!

“Brain Lightened Heavenly Swordsmanship.”

Heup..!!

DaeAng-!

?!

Yeon-ha doubted the sound she had heard at that moment. The sound of a bell?

But she wasn’t mistaken, Baek Cheon-hun, who swung the Baekma spear to protect himself, his body was thrown away with the ringing of the bell when the Brain Light was bounced off.

“Diamond Thunderbolt Divine Art.”

Not wanting to approach directly, Yeon-ha backed up and shot a sword beam.

“Wings of Chang Kung!”

Lightning struck, but when she saw Baek Cheon-hun blocking it with just one hand without even using the spear, Yeon-ha felt despair.

But then she remembered what Master Jang had told her.

“It’s not enough just to shoot sword beams. You need to keep watching even if the sword bears out of sight, like a child.”

Like… even sharper than Wings of Chang Kung!

“Haaat…!!”

Kwa-rung!!

“No matter how many times…!”

Kaga-gagk!!

“Ugh!”

Even if the sword is out of sight of the sword god, there is still a need to watch it to some extent. If you focus only on that, you will become an adult who relies only on your parents and slumps away.

At a suitable distance.

“I want to have a close combat with me…?!”

Thunder echoed through the training ground. Chang, known as the invincible.

However, even from that Chang, he could see himself being surpassed in swordsmanship.

After deflecting an attack coming from the upper left shoulder, he smoothly stepped on the lower part of Chang’s body and knocked him down. However, Nam Gung-yeon,

*Whirrr.* Like a skillful kumiho, she just took a backflip and resumed her stance.

“Uohhhhh!!!”

Baek Cheol-hoon’s muscles surged with strength and power. Concentrating the energy in his right arm, he performed the optimal thrust.

*Thwack!*

The audience roared.

“Ugh… huff..”

“I… got you.”

“Blocking a spear coming at close range…!”

“They both have tremendous strength…!”

Picking up a spear flying at close range with bare hands, Yeon Han prepared for the next attack.

It seemed like it was the real deal from now on.

“Hoo….”

Baek Cheol-hoon took a deep breath. They both had a moment to catch their breath.

They circled each other in a wager.

Yeon Han moved swiftly, while Baek Cheol-hoon was heavy.

Shall we give it a try…?

Yeon Han focused her clear Qi, especially on her head.

It was an area she had to experience someday.

This opportunity, she would reach it.

“Just by looking at someone’s face and falling for them… I think it’s okay. Even the time spent together is considered okay at least.”

“…..?”

Was it an extension of the previous conversation?

“For some reason?”

“If time is limited, there will be many things I want to do together in the future. And clearly, the face is a factor that separates people. If here, they only look at the inner self and ignore the outward appearance, in the end, they will only see half of a person, won’t they?”

“………”

“There is weight in time. Even if it is a short period, if there is a heavy burden within it. The weight of the problem you, Nam Gung-yeon-ha, are contemplating may not be that heavy after all.”

“…….Weight…aha…”

“Preparations are complete. It was enjoyable during our brief conversation.”

It seemed like my heart became a bit lighter.

Because I had been thinking about it all along.

What is different between Paengya Painting Studio and me? Paengya Painting Studio lasts for two weeks, while I have about a month left.

To think that I could fall so deeply in love in such a short time… When I look back on it later, I doubt if this love was actually something light.

I worry if it is not a weak flame that can be easily extinguished by a trivial matter.

It seems like anxiety.

“This time will be different.”

“The same goes for me.”

“The ‘Jin Jiwang Sword Formation.'”

“The ‘Geumgang Bokma Gwon.'”

The Brain and the Monk exchanged powerful energy, facing each other.
