The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 346

“Yes?”

At Jinmu’s sudden declaration, a panicked voice bursts out in the Daejeon Pavilion.

Hwangsin and the children had faces that did not understand the situation itself, and the heads of the Demonic Sect, including Il-il Goechung, couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

“Do Dongcheon Lord. That’s not going to happen.”

In response to Il-il’s question, Jinmu sips tea with a nonchalant expression.

“what?”

“What? What kind of nonsense are you talking about asking for a ranking match in the current situation?”

“….”

Request a ranking match to Neung Seo-hyeon in Sadongcheonju.

There is nothing wrong with that in itself.

rank war? can apply Because Jinmu is capable enough.

But timing is an issue.

Ranking matches were permitted only twice a year.

It was customary to hold a ranking match on a set day and notify everyone to get notarized, and there was no case of a ranking match taking place on any other day.

“…Dongcheon Lord, this is impossible. Even if it is unavoidable for Dongcheonju to change, it is necessary to obtain approval from the head of the church. If you ignore this, Cheonsan…”

“I forgot that bastard already.”

Jinmu, who snorted and cut off some of his words, looked at the crowd.

“Did you guys forget what I was about to do?”

“…”

“As I said before, I am a person who wants to fight on an equal footing with Bukri Docheon. You said you don’t need ashes.”

yes it was

It’s not that I don’t know that this nobleman is such a person.

“However, there are laws that must be obeyed.”

The law says the same thing. are you jeongpa?

“If you try to destroy the system that has supported the Demonic Cult, the entire heavenly mountain will move.”

As if sympathizing with Il-il’s heavy voice, the pest nodded with a serious expression from the side.

Jinmu looked at the two for a while and then smiled.

“They? Maybe you can’t move?”

“…yes?”

“You did that before. If you don’t get official permission from Bukri Docheon, Cheonsan will move.”

“Yeah.”

“So did you move?”

“….”

“Did that bastard Cheonsan or the religious leader ever contact you?”

“No, that’s…”

“That’s it.”

“but.”

“What do you keep doing? You have to run when you start. But because of this, but because of that. If you start chasing everything, there is no end. Don’t talk nonsense, just trust me and follow me because I made the decision.”

“…”

Despite Jinmu’s decision, the faces of Il-il and the pest were full of displeasure.

Really, how far do I have to make them understand this…

“Tsk tsk, anyway, Suhara doesn’t even know the owner’s personality properly.”

“Personality?”

“Why does North Lidocheon seem to be standing still?”

“….”

“It is true that Bukridocheon is concerned about the power of the Twelve Dongcheons uniting. If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have put my servants in Dongcheonju. But worry and fear are different things.”

“….”

“People like us are usually similar.”

I can’t understand what Jinmu is saying.

someone like us? What kind of person is that?

“I’m waiting.”

Wait… wait? what?

Il-il, the pest, and even the emperor and the children looked at Jinmu’s eyes with a curious look.

to wonder

But you won’t know even if I explain more than that.

I can’t understand the feeling of people who have never done anything but look up to you, looking down from above.

The sense of futility and loss when you realize that there is no one to deal with anymore.

When you realize that you can win no matter who you fight, you lose interest in the fight itself. You will lose the power to fight fiercely for a higher level.

For that reason, those who have climbed to that position seek vicarious satisfaction.

Watching other people’s fights.

They deliberately engage in fights and find fun in them.

It’s a bad habit, but it’s the best way to overcome endless boredom and boredom.

But even that is only for a moment.

You have to be able to fit it somehow.

More than anything else, he desperately needs someone who will end his life when he is at least free to move before he gets older and preserves his position.

I found out after coming to the Demonic Cult.

It has been three years since Bukri Docheon, who cried out for the conquest of the central plains, withdrew from the front lines and lived in seclusion.

It was the time when Four Emperor Hyukryunmu Gang himself died.

With the death of his nemesis, all the pleasure he had felt was gone.

You probably haven’t had an appetite for a while. Now I’ll just have to wait for the day I die.

Midfield conquest? under the magical world?

It’s not long before I die. sick and helpless.

Well, the political faction members train younger students in preparation for the future, but it was far from Bukri Docheon or themselves.

It looks like it will die of old age right away, so what do you mean by doing good things to others?

In the meantime, he appeared.

A young guy with good guts who suddenly appears and makes his concerns visible and challenges the seat of power. You must have heard that you are strong in the middle of it, so you must be jumping up and down with joy by now.

So wait. Embracing joy, not fear.

“God? Explain something…”

“….”

As Jinmu remained silent, the pest carefully asked.

Even if I tell you, small puppies like you won’t understand?

“Anyway, Heavenly Mountain doesn’t move.”

“…”

“So, send a letter to Seohyun Neung.”

While doubts were added to Jinmu’s expression, which had no way of knowing his intentions, Il-il opened his mouth heavily.

“…great. Even if Cheonsan doesn’t move, what if Neungseohyun doesn’t accept it?”

“Maybe.”

“…”

Jinmu nodded and smiled sinisterly.

“Looking at the current situation, Seohyun Neung is very quick to judge the situation. I would never step out unless the conditions were favorable.”

“you’re right.”

“But I will have no choice but to step out.”

“yes?”

“…”

Something keeps coming and going.

You said you wouldn’t go out, but you said you had no choice but to go out.

“What the hell?”

Jinmu stood up from his seat without answering the question and shouted loudly.

“Send letters and prepare drums! I will beat the drum and go as slowly as possible. Towards Sadongcheon so that everyone can hear it!”

“I obey your orders!”

When discussing the campaign, even if there are conflicting opinions, when an order is given, they repeat it with one voice.

Even if it is the road to death.

I had to trust him because I had watched Jinmu somehow turn his words into reality, and above all, I knew that if I didn’t follow him… I knew that merciless beatings would follow.

After everyone left, Jinmu called Hwangsin.

“When you send a letter to Neungseo-hyeon, the emperor, send a letter to the rest of the Twelve East Cosmos. I’m fighting with Neungseo-hyeon on the strength of each other.”

“By risking your forces… you mean?”

“okay. Then everyone will come to see you, so Neung Seo-hyeon won’t be able to stop coming out.”

“Then why don’t you tell anyone else?”

“…will you listen to me? It’s dangerous, so I’ll start with the opposite.”

No wonder.

I don’t know about the pest, but Il-il will run wild, saying that he can’t even get a knife in his throat.

Anyway, this is the problem with a guy whose loyalty has become excessive. Deni Won keeps trying to speak directly. You say the right things, but you can’t beat them.

“What are you doing? Do you have a lot of time?”

When Hwangshin didn’t move, Jinmu glared at him slightly and added an evil remark.

“…All right.”

The Emperor lowered his head as always.

I don’t know what’s going on, but even if things went wrong and I died next to him, that was also something to look forward to.

Even the emperor and the children had left, and Jinmu, resting his chin on the place where only Wooyangjin remained, smiled sinisterly.

Seohyeon Neung.

An iron woman who confidently competed among the men and rose to the Dongcheonju with a single golden arrow.

It touches that confidence and pride that will surely overflow.

If you don’t appear in the yard where other Dongcheonju are watching, it’s obvious that you will be pointed at as a coward.

I have no choice but to run because of face rather than pride.

What about the other Dongcheonju?

You may have laughed at the absurdity only when you announced your intention to challenge the seat of power, but you can’t help but feel threatened when you see Neungseo-hyeon and Sadongcheon, which are ranked twelfth in the hierarchy, collapse.

Then you will have to choose. Will they unite against Jinmu or climb Cheonsan holding Jinmu’s hand?

That way, you don’t have to go around annoyingly occupying this place.

No matter how much I do, to learn such an amazing strategy from a child.

When I thought about it, I wondered if he was doing well when he said he would challenge the big village leader?

“Yangjin.”

“yes?”

“I need to meet them then.”

“…?”

In any case, it would take a day or two to prepare for the departure.

I should give the child who gave me a big realization, at least a lifetime purchase ticket.

* * *

Food is good.

Letters prepared at the center of the Hocheon branch flew to various parts of Xinjiang.

Each of the burly fighters changed direction and stared at the flying globes, then took off their tops to reveal their brown muscles.

“Two!”

His firm determination was contained in the saliva he spat out in the palm of his hand, and the three-cheok-long drumstick with cloth tightly bundled at the end of the birch wood was vigorously swung along with the movement of his muscles.

Wow!

A tough drum made of taut cowhide is struck by a drumstick and resonates, making the mountains and streams resonate.

Whoa!

Taking over the sound of the drums, the leading warriors blew long horns cut from buffalo horns, and the following warriors raised their spears and swords in unison.

Steps toward the battlefield to attack the Sadongcheon Hyeoncheon branch.

“Six Dongcheon! Let’s go!”

When Il-il and the puppet announce the march, the spirit of the unmanned soldiers who step out in unison shakes the ground.

But it wasn’t fast.

The horses slowly trampled the ground, and the soldiers advancing after them were slow and solemn, like a royal procession.

As if they were announcing their advance to the mountains and rivers and making known to all people, they walked slowly to the sound of drums and horns.

“The emperor.”

“yes!”

Hwangshin responded politely to Jinmu’s low call.

“You don’t have to be fast. Get enough rest and get moving. Tell them to rest every ten miles and organize camp every hundred miles.”

“….”

“And give them enough wine and meat to hold a party every night. Do you know what I mean? I’m going as slow as possible If you’re bored, tell him to take a look at mountains and streams.”

“All right.”

The Hwangshin, who answered, turned around and gave the order to Il-il and the puppets following.

Jinmu laughed in satisfaction.

A road of about four hundred li to the Hyeoncheon branch.

They inform Sadongcheon of their advance with the sound of a drum and wait for the Twelve Dongcheonju, who received the message, to come running out of curiosity.

To show them who you are.

In this way, Jinmu left the Hocheon branch and moved towards the Hyeoncheon branch, where Sadongcheon’s headquarters held out, at a very slow pace.
