Chapter 663
“On that day, you guys told me which way I should go.”
The story, which was neither short nor long, ended with a voice that sounded like spitting. I stared at the white statue’s coldly shining eyes in silence.
what do you want to say to him?
well. I do not know.
Dressed in a dazzling white coat
This person standing in front of me is a person who has lived in darkness that I cannot dare to guess.
I fought for a great cause, but was betrayed in the end, and had to lose a child whom I cherished more than my life.
There could be only one reason why he has lived so far.
‘Bok 玄
Baeksang’s words were not wrong. As he lost his one and only child and wandered in pitch-black darkness, the people of Jungwon shone a torch with cold betrayal, and in this way Baeksang found the only way ahead of him.
It is the path of revenge.
He walked the thorny road of pain and anger to this place, and I suddenly remembered someone who existed in my memory from the white statue.
“… … As a chieftain.”
Hearing the muttering that came out reflexively, doubts flashed in Baeksang’s eyes. I licked my lips bitterly and continued.
“It’s nothing, just Ding? Watching God reminds me of someone I used to know.”
“For what reason?”
“He was an asshole like you. He was a puppet controlled by darkness.”
“what?”
“But on the other hand, I could understand it. Because he had a good reason.”
“… … You have been betrayed.”
“Yes. That’s also to blood relatives who have the same blood as you.”
Baeksang, who looked down at me without saying a word, parted his lips.
“How was he?”
“Killed. I myself.”
U ≫≫
“I was the big man in the family, but I couldn’t help it. Everything had already come too far.”
“Do you want to criticize me?”
I chuckled.
blame it What would be the difference if they came and criticized me now?
“Ringal accusations have no effect. I can’t stop that much. That was the biggest reason why the elder died.”
That is the end of the multiple demons.
They go down a road they didn’t want to, and they get lost forever. It is like a moth that rushes after only one torch of revenge.
“After killing the elder, I suddenly had that thought. If it were me and Taewonjinga who lost in that battle… … If he succeeded in revenge, would he finally be happy?”
“that… …
“Probably not. He had lived solely for revenge, but at some point his anger had blunted and he must have harbored guilt as he saw innocent people being sacrificed.”
I continued without waiting for an answer.
“Like you right now.”
U
I calmly stared at the white statue’s distorted face.
“I obviously don’t understand you. I haven’t been through something like you and haven’t been vengeful for decades. But on the other hand, admit it. At least for me, your anger toward the Chinese and the Han Chinese is justified.”
“… … Is it fair?”
Baeksang asked with a hard face. It was probably an unexpected answer even for him, but everything I said earlier was sincere.
Of course, the words that come out of my mouth right now
“Yes. Even if it were me, it would have been the same. No, if I were you, the entire midfield might have already been my enemy.”
I suddenly remembered the day I was heading to the Ares Guild.
I was alone at that time, but there was not an inch of hesitation in the steps I took.
But that choice made me
It wasn’t because he had enough power. It was because he was sincerely angry at Kim Hwa-jong’s death.
That’s how I destroyed the Ares guild.
If it had been Baeksang instead of Jin Taekyung, he would have fought to destroy the central circle.
but… … .
“Is your anger justified for the barbarian people living in this land?”
“… …
“Of course, there are people who understand. But what are the victims who were born in the process of colluding with Amchun? their family? Lovers and friends?”
Baeksang’s entire body trembled. I continued to speak in a calm voice.
“When I first set foot in the barbarians, I heard some news. A Miao village was massacred by a group of Han Chinese. Even the Han people who slaughtered 100 people, regardless of gender and age, ended up thinking of both sides by poison.”
Being locked up alone in a desolate prison also means that you have a lot of time to think.
I’m back from the beginning until now
I was able to point it out and be sure.
“No matter how you think about it, it’s a strange thing. No matter how many battles were fought, not a single one survived among so many people.”
It was a ruse planned from the beginning.
By erasing one village of the Miao people, the whole southern Manchuria was made to boil with hostility towards the Han people.
“That’s not all. There is also an incident with the millennium landlords who suddenly escaped from the poisonous bloody area and this time in the western part. If the Miao village is added, the number of dead is well over 300.”
This is what happened only seven days and nights after I came to Nanmanyasugung.
Compared to the past few decades when Baeksang lived as a vengeful ghost, it was only a handful of time. And even more frightening than that, was what was to come.
In order for him to complete his complete revenge, the war with Jungwon is not a coincidence, it is inevitable.
“why… …

I looked at the white statue with sadness and anger.
“How much more blood are you going to shed in the future, Baeksang?”
slap. slap.
With each step he took, the water that had been stagnant on the floor of the prison for a long time splashed out in all directions.
However, the owner of the walk did not mind that the snow-white hem of the dress was soiled.
No, some thoughts filled my brain
It is correct to say that I did not notice because of this.
slap… … .
The already soaked leather shoes suddenly stopped moving.
Baeksang, a middle-aged man crossing the prison cell alone, suddenly looked over his shoulder.
It’s dark, cold, and desolate.
Just like the road you’ve been walking on. And like the road that a person trapped on the other side has to walk forward.
However, he and Jin Tae-gyeong will not be able to walk the same path as him.
Only two days left until the public execution.
Unlike Baeksang, who has been walking for decades, the road left for Jin Taekyung was too short and clear.
‘It’s as if it’s already over. He can’t get out.’
We already know the extent of Jin Tae-gyeong’s inaction.
A transcendent master who stands out even in the middle court, where all kinds of prestigious schools are scattered.
Although Baeksang didn’t do his best either, he instinctively noticed the moment they exchanged numbers a few days ago.
half as many as yourself. No, maybe one level higher.
Jin Tae-gyeong was a monster beyond imagination. However, if his gong power is prohibited and he is restrained by a heavy iron ball, he will not be able to survive even if his teacher, the King of Fire, arrives.
What’s more, there was a greater restraint than an iron ball.
‘The Han Chinese under his command.’
Jin Tae-gyeong cares for his people. That is why, instead of running away, she chose to surrender herself and be imprisoned.
really stupid.
The biggest weakness of that monstrous young man Baeksang looked at was humaneness.
More than anything else, what makes a Murim person less like a Murim person.
but… … Above all, to make people human.
And that day when the snowy mountains were stained with blood. It was what Baeksang desperately wanted from his ally.
‘Come to think of it. At that time, Whia was also like me.’
Baeksang looked at the sky with empty eyes. A person’s face passes by in the air where only darkness exists.
From a baby to a boy, from a boy to a young man.
His one and only child, who was more upright than anyone else and shone as brightly as the name Hui.
And the smiling face of that child you will never see again.
Guguk.
Unknowingly, the clenched fist. As the neatly arranged nails dig into the flesh, blood flows out.
thumping
The white statue’s gaze turned to the feet. I could see drops of red blood spreading over the stagnant water.
The small ripples that occur every time that happened drew a person’s face.
‘How much more blood are you going to shed in the future, Baeksang?’
Jin Tae-gyeong’s last words that keep ringing in my ears. But Baeksang’s answer was the same then and now.
‘I have already crossed the river. A river you can never return to.’
It was a long time ago that he crossed the river.
Baeksang, who was driven half mad by despair and anger, met an unidentified beautiful woman one day and received an offer that was more alluring than her appearance. No, an offer he could not refuse.
‘Choose. If you do, it will surely come true
Baeksang did not hesitate.
Having a goal in life, he willingly took the woman’s outstretched hand, and he has never regretted that decision.
No, I shouldn’t regret it.
‘But why… …
Now that the fruits of the past decades are right in front of you, why are you shaking?
Baeksang swallowed the voice that was trying to leak out and gnashed his teeth. And he looked at his already soiled leather shoes and the hem of his clothes, which could no longer be called white, and repeated.
‘two days later. everything is over everything.’
At the feet of the white statue, droplets of blood spread over the stagnant water.
It had already been soiled for a long time and was slowly turning red with blood.
Just like the road he’s been on so far. Like a road to walk forward.
slap
The white shark that trampled on the puddle stopped
I started to move my steps.
In a quiet space where no one speaks, listening to Jin Tae-gyeong’s voice that still echoes in my ears.
* * *
Baeksang left, and I was left alone again.
The whole body, which was restrained by a chain pulled taut and an iron ball, was becoming stiff.
Ugh shit.’
After Baeksang had left, it was a bit easier.
I wonder if I should have begged to be saved, but I have no regrets. I’ve had enough to say
Even if he begged for his life uglyly, there was nothing left.
Baeksang is a person who has lived his life looking only at revenge. Just because I beg, there’s no such thing as a woman who watched a human documentary and shed tears.
Of course, even so, I have no intention of being dragged out two days later and dying quietly.
‘You’re crazy. I have to live somehow.’
It is true that he acknowledged the white statue’s anger.
But that doesn’t make me worthy of dying from him. From my point of view, both the general and Baeksang were just assholes with a story.
And I thought to somehow stop that new asshole I met after visiting a foreign country far away.
‘But how do I get out?’
My throat burns from talking a lot and thinking a lot.
Just as I was swallowing dry saliva, something cold from above touched the top of my head.
Took
“uh?”
It is water. Although it may be musty and tasteless, water is important. It seemed that the ceiling opened even more when the white statue smashed the surroundings.
‘This is helpful.’
I muttered in my heart, and tilted my head toward the ceiling.
And the next moment, the crack in the ceiling
Between the birds, someone’s eyes and eyes met unexpectedly.
Big, transparent eyes like those of a calf.
“… … Why are you there?”
The owner of the eye replied.
“Taesan. I’m hungry. I was imprisoned for eating too much.”
“ah. ,,
then admit it
