Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 40 The brain is to commit to a task first and then move on (4)

“….”

“….”

“Hey.”

“….”

“hey!”

“My ears hurt.”

“What are you doing here?”

“What do you mean?”

“You said you wouldn’t care whether you turn yourself in or not.”

“I did.”

“You said you would just bury me for throwing a punch at that time.”

“It was like that.”

“But why are you making this mess and making people suffer?”

“Just like that.”

Xu Liang was shocked.

“Is this your choice?”

“So I sit like this.”

“There are some really stupid choices. If you didn’t want to live like that, why didn’t you tell me then? “I could have picked it all off myself.”

“It’s my choice.”

This doesn’t allow conversation.

Seo-ryang and Wi Hong-ryeon are left alone in the cell. Xiliang’s outfit was the same as usual, but Wei Honglian was different.

She was wearing a prison uniform. My wrists and ankles are tied to handcuffs made of gold sea steel, so I cannot even use my skills. My lips were turning blue because of the chill in the cell.

Still, seeing as he continued to say harsh things to Seoryang, it certainly seemed like he wasn’t going crazy because of the magic trick.

Should I feel fortunate that they are at least treated with respect?

“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand. Did you turn yourself in because you had a fight with the Three Dukes? As soon as I hear you admit the truth, everything flies away. “You don’t lose your job, you lose your life.”

“If you want, you can.”

“Wow, this is my first time seeing such a crazy bitch.”

“…I’m not crazy.”

“If you’re not crazy, then who is?”

Wei Hongryun, who had been glaring at Seoliang, turned his head. The swelling had gone down a lot, but the colorful face was still quite funny.

“Attempted murder of the Three Confucius and lese majeste. In some cases, lese majeste may go unpunished, but attempted murder is trivial. “Don’t you know?”

“I know.”

Seoliang, who was looking at her blankly, suddenly nodded.

Wei Hongryun’s face became more serious, and a strange tension appeared on her face.

“Enough with the puns, tell me what’s on your mind.”

“….”

“Why are you doing this?”

“There is no such thing.”

“there is.”

“Because there isn’t one.”

“If you look at it without prejudice, everyone ends up there. “You, me, and the members of the Penal Court who arrested you are all the same.”

Wei Hongryun’s eyes wavered.

From the mouth of a person chosen by God, they are all the same. Although it was a bit unexpected, it was quite a shocking statement.

“Aren’t you an irresponsible person? From the looks of it, the crew seems to be following you well, but why don’t you just leave them alone and suddenly detonate a bomb?”

“….”

“What is the reason?”

“Even if there is a reason, you have no obligation to tell Confucius.”

“there is.”

“Why? “I also have my own free will, right?”

It was really crazy.

Just as Wei Hongryun was surprised by Seo-ryang, Seo-ryang was also surprised by her. To be precise, I was surprised by her thoughts.

Having lived in the Church of the Heavenly Demon since I was young, I can think quite clearly on the topic.

‘I’m not even that excited.’

Xu Liang opened his mouth.

“Because you tripped me up.”

“I didn’t trip and fall. “I was just telling the truth.”

As expected, he is resolute. It seemed that her strong character would not change until she died.

But Seo-ryang realized that her eyes were not as hard as before.

“Is it because of the fourth?”

“…!”

“Are you not going to tell me that you took money to keep your promise to that guy?”

“….”

“Well, since your crew is also involved, it won’t be easy for you to open your mouth.”

Wei Hongryun’s eyes became cold.

Seoliang tilted his head.

“What I’m curious about is why you risked yourself and embroidered… Ah!”

A moment of enlightenment.

Xiliang looked at Wei Honglian with strange eyes. Wei Hongryun, who met those gazes, naturally couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“….”

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“You don’t even say why, so should I say it’s me?”

“….”

“새끼 의리 있는 미친년 정도로만 봤는데 나름 대가리 굴릴 줄도 안다 이거냐?”

“….”

Seo-ryang, who was quietly looking at her, pulled the string on the ceiling.

After a while, the door to the cell opened and a criminal court member came in.

“Did you call me, Prince?”

“Release this bitch.”

“yes?”

“Please release me.”

The embarrassed party member hardened his expression but spoke as politely as possible.

“A clear accusation of attempted murder and lese majeste….”

“For the first time in a while, I personally gave a lesson to the person I like. “The reason this bitch’s face got caked is because I couldn’t control my strength.”

“…yes?”

“Do you really think this bitch was trying to kill me? No matter how crazy it is, this bitch is also a cultist. Are you trying to murder the cult leader’s disciple? Does it make sense from common sense?”

“That’s true.”

“Is that what you think?”

“Of course it is. If we look at the circumstances of the Hana incident and the remarks of witnesses such as Jamiruzhu…”

At that moment, Seo-ryang’s expression distorted.

The change was truly surprisingly fast and natural. Even Wei Honglian flinched, so it was natural for the party member’s face to turn pale.

“Should I even meet them face to face?”

“….”

“Why are you doing this when you say you are not a party? “Have you ever been swindled out of money by this bitch?”

“Is that possible?”

“Then what? “Do you really not trust what I say?”

“no! Absolutely nothing like that…!”

“Am I funny?”

It only took one sip of tea for the proud party member’s eyes to turn into the eyes of a rotten fish. Even Wei Honglian felt pity for the party member for a moment.

After the revitalization, it is evaluated as being considerably softer than before, but Samgongja is still Samgongja. Where will the personality that was called the greatest tyrant go?

Just as the party member was about to open his trembling lips, Xu Liang stood up.

“Then, at least call the head of the criminal law department. “I will tell the head of the family directly.”

“…!”

“Can I go out through that door? Did you go out and go to the left?”

The party member lowered his head in response to a threat that was scarier than the threat to kill you.

“no! “We will exonerate Wei Hongryeon, the Great Lord of Gwangma!”

Seo-ryang, who was glaring at the party member with axe-eyes, immediately relaxed his eyes.

“Sniff, you’re a little excited.”

“….”

“I’m sorry. “Once I turn a corner, I tend to get a little crazy.”

“I’m sorry!”

“That bastard’s apology is nothing… Well, if we meet on the way forward, let’s say hello.”

“Glory comes!”

Xi Liang glanced down at Wei Honglian.

“Do you like alcohol?”

“….”

“I think I like it. Come over and have a drink when you have time. “It’s going to be a hassle for our maid, so I’ll make the snacks myself.”

Seo-ryang left without listening to her answer. The party member hurried out after him.

She was left alone, looking at the door with complicated eyes, then closed her eyes.

“Why on earth is Gwangma Daeju like that?”

“Did this crazy bitch do something crazy?”

“…Of course that could happen.”

Wi Hong-ryeon, whom Ma Dong-pil saw, was so crazy that it would be a waste to even call him crazy. No matter how much the Three Dukes tried to touch him, he couldn’t just leave if he was a Protestant.

“Was there something they were aiming for?”

“I guess I was bored.”

Ma Dong-pil glanced at Seoryang.

Seoriang asked while scratching Geumho’s chin.

“What is that irreverent look?”

“Oh no!”

“Are you curious?”

“yes?”

“Are you curious why that bitch went to the penal court and surrendered herself?”

“As expected, there was a reason.”

“of course. Is it possible that he got the title of Gwangma Daeju through mahjong? “If you don’t know how to turn your head, no matter how strong you are, you can’t become the head of a group.”

“That’s true, but… then why did the Great Lord surrender himself?”

“Why do I have to do that to survive?”

“yes?!”

You embroidered yourself to survive? Does that make sense?

“why? “You don’t hang out with that bitch?”

“…Honestly, yes.”

“This is not a situation where you can hang out and sleep around and argue. “That year, I made a bet of my own.”

“What do you mean by that?”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“What could he have done?”

“yes?”

“The fact that I took money from the fourth was revealed to me. A promise is a promise, so I can’t blow it like I said. I think they distributed it evenly to the crew, but I don’t think we can get them involved as well. “Given her personality, she would have bitten her tongue.”

“If you do that, you can even avoid embroidery at all….”

“What if you don’t do it? How do I keep Jamiruju and Jeomsoy’s mouths shut? Should we just kill them all and get rid of them?”

“…ah!”

“Okay, let’s just say it ends there. But she couldn’t help but think of one threat.”

“A threat?”

“fourth.”

At that moment, Ma Dong-pil’s eyes widened.

“She knows that my relationship with the Fourth is not good. Of course, if it gets known that we had contact in Jamiru, what good will it do her?”

“…!”

“Being imprisoned in the penal court itself is the best choice for that bitch. “You can’t touch the fourth, and there’s nothing for the crew to avoid.”

“But what about the attempted murder and lese majeste against Confucius…?”

“That’s not why you called me.”

“Are you saying she knew Confucius would come out like this?”

“Is that possible?”

“Are you saying you risked your life when you didn’t even know how Confucius would come out?”

“uh.”

“Why such a reckless move….”

“That’s how she’s lived her life until now.”

“…!”

“I feel like every day is my last.”

“Still, it was too much of a gamble. “Isn’t this purely up to luck?”

“Why is it gambling? “Isn’t it a win worth winning?”

“What do you mean by the main shrine…?”

“Anyway, you protected the babies, right?”

Ma Dong-pil exclaimed.

Xu Liang chuckled. The more I thought about it, the more I laughed.

“독특하지만 그래도 지 새끼들은 끔찍하게 챙기는 년이야. “It may seem like there is no solution on the outside, but it doesn’t mean you wear your hair for fashion.”

“….”

“Well, as you said, it’s quite extreme.”

Ma Dong-pil looked at Seoryang with admiring eyes.

“You are amazing.”

“Eh? what?”

“It’s easy to hear, but I don’t think it was easy to actually figure it out.”

No matter how close we became, it was not an easy thing to say to the Three Dukes. This meant that Ma Dong-pil’s surprise was great.

Xu Liang shrugged his shoulders.

“I was lucky. “I know people who are different in gender and age, but have lived roughly similar lives.”

“yes? “Who is that?”

“You and me.”

“…!”

“It only makes you look like a person with common sense, but once you open your eyes, you jump in without hesitation, just like that girl and us.”

Seoliang took his hand off Geumho’s chin. Before I knew it, I was fast asleep.

“In the end, all people are similar.”

Ma Dong-pil’s eyes wavered.

Although he is younger than me, there are times when I get the same feeling from Confucius as Noh Kang-ho. It’s been a while since I even thought about doing it because it was so natural.

But now it was different again. It wasn’t just that Kang-ho had a lot of experience, but the person himself seemed deep. You feel like a mature adult with insight.

‘As expected…’

The religious leader is worthy of having him as a disciple.

Ma Dong-pil was moved beyond admiration.

At that time, Seo-ryang smiled wickedly.

“Giggles. “Since I saved her life, I’ll have to tell her to buy me a drink.”

“…?”

“I have to completely throw away my salary. Realize clearly how scary the world is, bitch.”

Ma Dong-pil lowered his head. No one will know what he is thinking.

“Keuuuuu! Anyway, today finally passes like this.”

“Oh yeah.”

“You too, go over and sleep. “You must have been tired.”

“I will come back tomorrow morning.”

“What are you here for? “Enjoy your little vacation.”

“But…”

That was then.

Xu Liang raised his hand.

“Dongpil.”

“Yes, Confucius.”

“Cherry blossoms are sleeping. “Go to the kitchen and prepare a glass.”

“Ah, do you plan on drinking medicinal wine and going to sleep?”

“What about medicinal liquor?”

Xu Liang stood up.

He looked at the front door beyond the window.

After a while.

Bang! Bang!

Seo-ryang shouted.

“The door is breaking, you bitch!”

He walked away grumbling and opened the front door.

Beyond the open gate, Wei Hongryeon was standing carrying a large bundle.
