◈ Episode 174. Did you say it was a buff? (One)
“… … “What does that mean?”
Inside the room made of ebony, the sword lord sighed inwardly and succinctly explained to the labyrinth lord one more time the situation he had just seen in secret.
“Mugwang, you got caught by the Irregular?”
“I don’t believe it either, but it seems that way given the circumstances.”
At Geomju’s next words, Labyrinth Ju kept her mouth shut.
A long silence.
However, even in this uncomfortable silence, the Sword Lord seemed to strangely understand the Lord of the Labyrinth’s feelings this time.
This is because the being sent down to understand the Irregular’s power suddenly became attached to the Irregular who needed to be dealt with.
“… … .”
How long did the silence last?
“… … “Is it real?”
“That’s right.”
The Geomungju answers the Labyrinth Ju who asks again as if he doesn’t understand.
“Tsk.”
A clicking sound was heard from the Labyrinth Master’s mouth.
A voice that can be heard with a hint of annoyance.
However, Migungju soon sighed softly and seemed to be organizing her thoughts. She remained silent for a while and then spoke about how she had organized her thoughts.
“Did you find out why Moo Gwang was attached to him?”
“I’m sorry, but I couldn’t figure it out at all. However, when I looked at it through Bian, there was no connection whatsoever between irregular and matte.”
“… … There was no connection whatsoever, but suddenly Moo Gwang attached to him… … la.”
Migungju talks a lot as if she is thinking about something.
“Then, in the end, we were unable to confirm the Maverick’s power.”
“yes. This time, because Moo-gwang suddenly killed all the names that went down together… … .”
“I can’t help it. “Tell the founder to send the ‘dragon’.”
“… … All right.”
“and.”
“yes.”
Migungju slowly moved her face, which was not visible due to the blinds, and then.
“This time, send down a lot of names.”
“If you say a lot… … ?”
“half.”
“… … yes?”
“Send half down.”
That’s what he said.
####
Training room in the late afternoon.
“In short, is this all you can say?”
“That’s right. “That’s all I can tell you.”
Kim Joo-hyuk called out Moo-gwang, who had been eating alone without stopping since the morning, and asked him about something he had not asked about yesterday.
“hmm.”
I was able to get some information from Moo-gwang.
Of course, most of the information Moogwang had was not useful in the current situation.
The information he immediately told Kim Joo-hyuk was about the Lord of the Labyrinth and the five subordinates under him.
“The Labyrinth Lord and the Five Lords… … .”
“yes. The five major provinces include Geomju, Changju, Gwalju, Changju, and Doju.”
“You said they were stronger than you, right?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Moo-gwang shook his head.
“no.”
“… … “So he’s weaker than you?”
“Not even that.”
“… … ??”
“They cannot defeat me with pure martial arts. However, they have improved their abilities with some sneaky tricks.”
“… … A mean catch?”
“Yes, they each gave their original names to the Lord of the Labyrinth, and were given other names that the Lord of the Labyrinth had in return.”
“… … “Is that possible?”
Kim Joo-hyuk frowned slightly and asked, and Moo-gwang nodded.
“Of course, it is impossible because such a ‘concept’ is not allowed within this labyrinth, but the labyrinth lords outside the labyrinth have the ability to make it possible.”
“Then who will win if those guys and I fight?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Moo-gwang looked directly into Kim Joo-hyuk’s eyes and answered as if there was no need to say anything.
“I think Musin will win.”
“okay?”
“Yes, I think Musin will definitely win.”
“… … objectively?”
“Looking at it objectively, I think Musin will win.”
Matt answers with his eyes shining brightly, which doesn’t match his appearance.

Kim Joo-hyuk frowned slightly at the sight of Moo-gwang, who didn’t look objective at all.
“No, what do you think if you ask really objectively?”
“When viewed objectively.”
“When you saw it?”
“There is no way God of War can lose!”
“… … .”
Hey, was this character originally like this? Kim Joo-hyuk looked at Moo-gwang with a strange expression, showing his fanatical faith that was too much for him.
“… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk responded with a small sigh at the matte look in his eyes, which seemed to be filled with an unwavering bright light.
“Then, aside from the five major states, what about the Labyrinth State?”
“If it’s Lord Labyrinth and Lord Martial… … .”
He lowered his head for a moment, as if he was thinking about Kim Joo-hyuk’s answer, and then answered.
“I don’t think there’s any way for God of War to lose.”
“… … “Is that a concept?”
“… … “What is the concept?”
Matt asks.
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at Moo-gwang with an expression as if he was seeing something pitiful.
“… … “It lives up to its name.”
After muttering that, he waved his hand and told me to go practice.
Because it seemed difficult to get an objective answer.
Well, actually, there was nothing particularly bad about Kim Joo-hyuk as long as Moo-gwang became the team’s main force right now, including the fact that Oh Dae-ju was there.
Anyway, as time passed, Kim Joo-hyuk would need more power.
Moo-gwang, who was looking at Kim Joo-hyuk, who was thinking like that and waving his hands, bowed his head once and stood up.
“ah.”
Soon, as if something came to mind, he let out an exclamation and opened his mouth.
“By the way, I am truly sorry, but may I ask you a question, Mr. Musin?”
“question?”
“yes.”
“What?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s answer, Moo-gwang seemed to be deciding what to say for a moment before replying.
“Was the martial arts you have now the martial arts you learned on your own?”
“… … “Who are you saying you learned it from?”
“yes.”
“no.”
Kim Joo-hyuk immediately answered Moo-gwang’s question.
In the first place, whether 300 years ago or now, he gave his own teachings, and he never actually received teachings from anyone.
‘Well, in the old days, I learned the Tonap method because of my magic power.’
Aside from that, he has never learned proper martial arts from anyone.
No, to be exact, it’s not that I didn’t learn, it’s that I didn’t learn.
The world 300 years ago was a world where force made money, and Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been fighting between humans and monsters since he had nothing at the time, could not even think of learning martial arts.
His childhood was so impoverished that it could be simply defined as ‘horrible.’
“But why do you ask that?”
Kim Joo-hyuk reminisces about the past and asks questions.
Moo-gwang spoke straight away.
“This story may be a bit rude, but I told you because I thought that God of War’s martial arts is not the type of martial arts that can come out of this labyrinth.”
“What type of martial arts cannot be produced here?”
“… … This is a little difficult to explain. It’s as if the radish you have right now is outside-”
Moo-gwang shows disapproval at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words and cuts him off.
He seemed to be thinking about how to explain this for a while, but then spoke with a resigned expression.
“I don’t think I can explain this part properly, so let me think of a more analogy.”
“… … Well, okay then.”
Moo-gwang immediately bows his head in response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s answer and goes back to do the training that Kim Joo-hyuk ordered him to do a little while ago.
‘A different kind of martial arts… … .’
Looking at him like that, Kim Joo-hyuk briefly thought about what he said.
Scribble.
He immediately erased that thought with a shake of his head.
Because that wasn’t what was important to Kim Joo-hyuk.
Therefore, Kim Joo-hyuk, after organizing the information he heard from Moo-gwang in his head again, changed the topic to the story he heard from Choi A-rin and Yan Lang this morning.
‘I practice better because people are around me…’ … la.’
In fact, when Kim Joo-hyuk first heard that, he tried to pass it off as a joke.
That’s because in the first place, he didn’t think that it made sense to train well just because someone was next to you.
‘Well, I don’t know if it’s a situation where I personally guide each person.’
Based on what Choi A-rin and Yan Lang said, I thought it was nonsense to say that training would go well just by being around them, so I tried to ignore it.
‘… … ‘Adelia Bentrick, Black Cat, and even Logan said that?’
The reason Kim Joo-hyuk couldn’t pass off Choi Ah-rin and Yan Lang’s words as a joke was that Adelia Bentrick and Black Cat, and even Logan, who Kim Joo-hyuk called after hearing those words, said similar, though not identical, words.
‘… … Is there such a case?’
Four people may be a small number in some ways, but in other ways it is not an entirely small number, so Kim Joo-hyuk continued to think with a slightly strange expression.
“also… … “It doesn’t make any sense.”
No matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t make any sense.
In the first place, training is not something that can be done automatically like a game just by sitting next to you and not doing anything, but something that you have to put in the effort yourself.
Nor did I suddenly gain enlightenment just because someone else stayed still.
Training is only meaningful if you experience it yourself.
‘But all four of you said you felt it… … Is there really a little bit of something?’
How long has it been since Kim Joo-hyuk thought about what he heard earlier?
hook-!
Kim Joo-hyuk realized that the scene of the training room he had been looking at was enveloped in pure white light, and he turned around and opened his mouth before all the light disappeared.
“hi.”
“… … “I guess I’m completely used to it now.”
As soon as the white light disappears, what you see is an old shack and a guide sitting inside it.
The guide said that while looking at Kim Joo-hyuk, who was greeting him even before the summons was over.
Kim Joo-hyuk sat in front of the guide and opened his mouth as if he was now used to it.
“So, what happens this time?”
“It has something to say, but actually, I sang it because I wanted to know what the bottom line was. As I said last time, I can’t properly understand the situation below.”
Guide’s words.
Kim Joo-hyuk shrugged his shoulders and began to briefly talk about the situation so far.
“… … “Mu-Gwang, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, has become your disciple?”
“Rather than being a disciple, is it just a matter of observing the training?”
“… … Really?”
“Well, it just so happened.”
The guide looks at Kim Joo-hyuk with a bewildered expression as he speaks as if it is no big deal.
How long has it been since Kim Joo-hyuk told the story below?
“Oh, now that I think about it, I have something to ask you.”
“What?”
“There are people who say that their training goes well even when I’m around them. Do you know anything about that?”
“… … what?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, the guide opened his eyes wide and asked.
“… … “Why are you so excited?”
“Tell me about that in a little detail.”
As the guide continued, Kim Joo-hyuk tilted his head and began to open his mouth.
