Episode 287: Me, Lim Kkeok-jeong, Song Song-i and Deacon Kim.
However, Lee Jeong-ryong’s eyes were fixed on only one person as he entered the hospital room.
It was Chief Choi.
“You’ve grown a lot.”
….
The moment I heard Lee Jeong-ryong’s first words, I felt as if I had been hit in the back of the head with a sledgehammer.
It was this. It was clear that what Team Manager Choi was hiding was not a simple hierarchical relationship with his boss.
‘As far as I know, Team Leader Choi was in the Ares Guild for about three to four years.’ No matter how little you catch it, you would have met Lee Jeong-ryong in your early to mid-twenties. To say he has grown a lot doesn’t suit him.
That’s what I hear from my parents’ friends or relatives on holiday.
“long time no see. Lee Jeong-ryong, vice guild blind.”
Hard names and tone. Lee Jeong-ryong stared at Team Leader Choi with a red-hot look.
“As the deputy guild leader, you called me grandfather when you were little.”
Grandpa?
This is the second shock. moment? I thought about it, but quickly erased it from my mind.
This is simply a matter of naming. In my young mind, I just called him grandfather, but Lee Jung-ryong would not be Choi’s real grandfather.
‘It seems certain that Team Leader Choi has had a close relationship since he was young.’ Just that he had such a relationship with Lee Jeong-ryong was no longer normal.
In the midst of everyone’s surprise, the only ones who remained calm were Deacon Kim and Team Leader Choi, who responded calmly.
“It was. Twenty years ago.” “Time frightens me. I never thought that a little guy who was so charming would change like this.” “As I went on, I began to see more and more invisible things.” “I received reports that I had resigned last year.
Thinking about it, I haven’t seen your face once since you joined the guild. I felt sorry for myself.” Contrary to the words, it is not a sad expression at all. Team leader Choi answered the same thing.
“I’m going crazy too. I would have been able to see you more often if I hadn’t immediately issued an overseas assignment so that I couldn’t even set foot in the head office.”
“Why, did you not like the overseas branch?”
“I felt I was out of place. That’s all.”
“This is not a place to be… …
“Isn’t that the picture the deputy guild leader wanted?”
“I say? Is it?” Lee Jeong-ryong burst into laughter.
“So you built a new nest? Even by borrowing someone else’s name?”
“I’m sorry to interrupt you while you are talking.”
Butler Kim, who had been silent, suddenly opened his mouth. It’s a calming voice, as usual.
“Bocchan and I are not left.” “No, who is this?” Lee Jeong-ryong intentionally opened his eyes.
It was a completely exaggerated action. If he knew Team Leader Choi, there would be no way he would not know Deacon Kim, who is closest to him.
“Kim Hwa-jong? Fire paper is right, right?”
“It’s been a while. Senior.”
Butler Kim did not refuse Lee Jeong-ryong’s outstretched hand. The two shook hands with even a faint smile.
‘Half words? Senior there?’ Aside from the exact relationship between the two, it seems that they are closer than you think.
“It was good that you came in person. The last time we met… … Was it about 20 years ago?” “Eighteen years to be exact. Eighteen years.” Maybe it’s because of my mood, but it seems that my tongue is straining at certain words.
Looking around, Song Song-i and Lim Kkeok-jeong looked as if they had seen ghosts.
‘Ah, it wasn’t because of my mood.’ You’re more friendly than you think, bitch. my eyes are swollen
Correct. Deacon Kim is not friendly with Lee Jeong-ryong and hates him.
Lee Jeong-ryong said with a smile still on his face.
“You’re Hwajong, while I couldn’t see you, I thought only Shin-soo became clearer, but your guts got thicker too.”
It was a meaningful word. However, Deacon Kim’s eyes did not waver even at his words, which contained subtle pressure.
“When a person has room in their mind, the divine number becomes clearer.”
“spare?”
“I felt relieved when I rescued the young master from the tiger’s mouth. I used to have thick guts.”
“Euhaha! That’s right. Once you made up your mind, you didn’t hesitate. Thanks to that reckless personality, I also saved my life.”
“I remember. Han River.”
“Yes, Han River. The day Mapo Bridge collapsed. Hwajong, you still remember.”
“Every time I have a chance, I think about it and regret it. If I hadn’t saved my senior at that time, things like this wouldn’t have happened.”
Correct again. Deacon Kim doesn’t hate Lee Jeong-ryong.
hate it so much To the point where I’d rather die.
Because he was a wizard, he only didn’t pick up a sword, and his tongue was a blade.
Seok-jun Seok-jun, who had been standing behind Lee Jeong-ryong like a steel tower, took a step forward.
“Watch your mouth.”
“Careful?”
“You are not someone to treat me carelessly.”
Butler Kim looked at Seok-jun Seok-jun with a strange look.
“At first glance, your skills look great, but what’s your name, Hunter?”
“I am Seok-jun Seok-jun, who is in charge of protecting the deputy guild leader.”
“is it so. Seok-jun Seok-jun, team leader.”
Deacon Kim’s unique low-pitched voice followed softly.
“If you’ve said everything, shut your mouth and stay behind. This is no place for you or the like to intervene.” u!n Seok-jun Seok-jun’s normally expressionless face hardened.
Just as the veins stood out on his forehead, Lee Jeong-ryong burst out laughing and pushed Seok-jun back.
“I thought I might have become more docile with age… … That temperament is still there. Yes, this is Kim Hwa-jong.” “If I’m to blame for having a bad temper, I’ll have to give up a few moves to my seniors, shouldn’t I?” Team leader Choi also added a word in a cool voice.
“Enough of this pointless conversation and get to the point.”
How many people in Korea, no, in the whole world, can say this to Lee Cheong-ryong?
At the stormy conversation, Lim Kkeok-jeong and Song-i Song opened their mouths.
In particular, Deacon Kim’s appearance, when I watched him rolling Sangdong Guild leader Lim Chun-soo like a dog a few months ago, was surprising even to me.
‘What the hell happened.’ Team leader Choi as well as butler Kim. Even if it is different compared to the usual appearance, it is very different.

“One is young and impatient, and the other has not yet abandoned his youthful personality. Well, it wouldn’t be bad to get to the point. Although I feel sorry for being invited first.”
“Did you just say invite?”
“You are mistaken. None of us would invite the deputy guild leader.”
“Think about it. There must be at least one?”
Lee Jeong-ryong, who had been looking at the two as if he was having fun, suddenly turned his head to me.
“That friend.”
In an instant, silence fell.
In the midst of people’s gazes, I was lost in thought for a moment before carefully opening my mouth.
“What kind of bullshit is that?”
As soon as the meal was over, Seok-jun Seok-jun growled in a low voice. If Lee Jeong-ryong hadn’t shook his head, he would have run at him like a hunting dog.
Lee Jeong-ryong, who stopped Seok-jun Seok-jun, spoke to me.
“You didn’t do that. Come and apologize to the victim.” “ah.” I definitely said that to Park Ji-hoon and Park Tae-seop.
“You look like you really didn’t know you were coming.”
“Honestly, yes. What kind of trick are you trying to find here?”
“You have a tendency to spit out your words, so since you responded to the invitation, shouldn’t you start by saying thank you?”
thank you?
I laughed out loud. The back talk was so absurd that I didn’t even feel it was worth replying to.
“Even if your mouth is crooked, you speak straight. It was a request, not an invitation. Demand an apology.”
“No. If it wasn’t for my will to come here, could you or the Peace Guild have moved me even one step?”
“that… …
“Didn’t you think so too? I really didn’t expect you to come.”
It felt like being covered in cold water. I was speechless and choked.
Everything he said was true.
Even though he cried out for anger and revenge in his heart, he did not expect Lee Jeong-ryong to come. In the meantime, his head coolly compromised with reality.
“Demands are the right of the strong. Words spoken by the weak to the strong can never become demands. Everything is a request and an invitation.” ji.” u ? r)
“That’s why I’ve been invited. No matter what weaknesses you hold onto and shake, that fact doesn’t change. Because I am Lee Jeong-ryong. Because I am the Ares Guild, and the Ares Guild is me.” Peace Guild members, including me, were at a loss for words at the calm but powerful voice.
I know at least one. The reason Lee Jeong-ryong came here is not an apology.
Imprinting the vast difference in power, he smiled contentedly and continued.
“And you shouldn’t do this to a guest visiting the hospital. Especially to the guests who brought gifts for patients. Isn’t that so, Team Leader Seok 7 “That’s right. Deputy guild leader.” Seok-jun Seok-jun answered like a robot and knocked on the door. A hunter from the security team who was waiting outside came in and put the thing in his hand on the table.
A vase of hundreds of flowers. and one envelope.
“Consolation money. If the amount is insufficient, feel free to tell me.”
My gaze was fixed on the flower. It was beautiful and white. I don’t usually like flowers, but I didn’t hate them either.
However, it was the first time in my life that I felt dirty when I saw the flowers I received as a gift.
‘The gift of hospitality is a lily.’ Forgotten anger slowly creeps up.
I murmured, rubbing the back of my stiff neck.
“Have you seen this dog-like old man??… Even Seok-Jun Seok-Jun did not hold back this time. His fist, which rushed in with a scream, struck my lower jaw with dazzling speed.
Puck!
Blood spurted out with an eerie sound.
I frowned and slowly turned my tilted head. I could feel the sticky, salty taste of blood in my mouth.
shit. You bit your tongue.”
Seo Seok-jun widened his eyes. He alternately looked at his fist and at me with disbelief in his eyes.
“how?”
“I am a bit strong. I drank a lot of milk since I was little.”
“Obviously loaded with mana… … If it was a type of martial arts, I wouldn’t be able to stand like I am now.
Of course, if that was the case, I wouldn’t have been hit on purpose.
I grinned at the guy.
“You should have done your best. So that I can finish it in one shot.”
Shhh!
“Suck!”
Seok-Jun Seok-Jun took a short breath and reached out to sever my arm. Fast enough to be incomparable to a normal A-class hunter.
His hand bends like a hook and snatches my wrist.
‘This looks like a real golden arrow.’ Recalling the surprise he felt when dealing with Jihoon Park, he gently twisted his wrist.
I gently rolled up the wrist of the guy who scratched the air, and at the same time as I clamped the jade, I slammed the guy’s foot down with all my strength.
Quadduk!
“Kuh! ,,The weight of the thousand pounds pressed Seok-jun’s instep and drove it deep into the hard concrete. He groaned in pain and raised his arm to cover his face.
however… … .
“Will that work?”
One thing is for sure. I ‘didn’t’ avoid it, but Seok-jun Seok-jun avoided ‘can’t’.
Kwajik!
The fist, which was inserted precisely in the center of the face, broke the nose bone at once and sank the philtrum.
White teeth protruded along with blood from its gaping snout.
thump, thump.
“Where is the Sibeol bastard?”
M ≫ Something that happened in an instant. Everyone in the room was surprised, but one person’s reaction in particular stood out.
“You bastard… … His voice, which had always been relaxed, trembled. There was a ripple in Lee Jeong-ryong’s eyes.
I quickly hit the line before things exploded.
“I tell you, it was self-defense.”
However, the words heard the next moment were of a kind that could not be predicted or guessed at all.
“What is your relationship with your brother?”
“yes? who?”
“The one who taught you that.”
“If it is… … Eyes flashed open. This old man, are you talking about martial arts?
But Lee Jeong-ryong didn’t listen to me anymore. He stared at Team Leader Choi with calm eyes.
“Has Soyoung had another man?”
I don’t know who the name Soyoung means.
However, that name seems to have been an injustice that should not be touched by anyone.
Team leader Choi clenched his fists, and blue flames welled up in Deacon Kim’s eyes.
“Senior, do you want to die?”
“Answer me.”
“this guy! Lee Blue Dragon!”
hurry.”
It was then that Team Leader Choi’s tightly closed lips opened.
“You know better than me. What kind of relationship they were with.” “Then that guy…
“You must have already researched Mr. Jin Tae-kyung.” “You mean all of that is true?” “It is as you know. There is no lie.” Lee Jung-ryong’s eyes trembled.
He looked back and forth between me and Team Leader Choi before slowly turning around. As if the door had been opened, the footsteps came to a halt. A single word was thrown out.
“I will send someone soon. When the negotiations are over, hand over those holding you back.”
clap. Security team Hunter, with Seok-jun Seok-jun on his back, was the last to close the door. It feels like a storm has hit.
I asked Choi, who was silently looking at the tightly closed door.
“Who is Soyoung?”
“She is my mother.”
“… … yes?”
“My mother, who gave birth to me and raised me. She already died a long time ago.”
Unbeknownst to me, my mouth fell open.
Jungryong Lee. I saw this crazy old man. Asking her child if her dead mother cheated on her while she was alive.
“crazy. Why… … Oh no. It’s okay if you don’t answer.”
“It seems that Lee Jeong-ryong, the assistant guild leader, was quite shocked. I didn’t know you would ask such a direct question.”
It’s shocking and nabal. I hurriedly waved my hand.
“Hey, manager, it’s really okay, you don’t have to listen.” “Sometimes I think about it, what if my mother had been born as someone other than Cheon Tae-min’s daughter.” “Okay, so stop… … In an instant, the body stood still.
‘What now?’ Compared to her immobilized body, her head was repeating three letters faster than ever.
Cheon Tae-min. Cheon Tae-min. Taemin Cheon… … .
“Did you just say Taemin Cheon?” “If my pronunciation is not wrong, then you must have heard it right.” “Could it be… the Cheon Taemin I know?” “yes.” Manager Choi nodded and continued.
W That’s my maternal grandfather.” In an instant, her eyes widened and her legs staggered.
‘Cheon Tae-min. Cheon Tae-min.’ At one time, I had doubts about the identity of Team Leader Choi.
A man in his 20s whom an A-class magician, a hidden hero of the cataclysm, calls a master of seemingly endless wealth.
now i get it How were those things possible?
It was because his maternal grandfather was Cheon Tae-min.
‘The Great Eung-eung created by mankind. The best hunter in the world… … Among the words that modify Cheon Tae-min, the title ‘Ares Guild Master’ is only a small piece.
The name of the largest piece is an immortal achievement that no one can achieve.
‘The one who killed the demon king. Slayer.’
The grandson of Tian Tae-min is standing in front of me.
