◈ Episode 276 New Method (1)
About three hours later.
“… … “This is what happened.”
“… … .”
As soon as Baekho, who had been chatting alone for a total of eight hours, finished talking, Kim Joo-hyuk sighed and ran his hand down his face.
‘too long… … .’
In fact, after a little over five hours, Kim Joo-hyuk seriously considered stopping Baekho.
However, the reason he could not stop Baekho’s conversation was because his expression looked so earnest.
Thanks to this, Kim Joo-hyuk could not stop talking about Baekho and listened to his entire story for eight hours.
Thanks to this, Kim Joo-hyuk opened his mouth as he felt his mind being soaked in fatigue.
“… … okay. “It must have been difficult.”
“Yes, it was very difficult.”
His voice came out low, as if he was lamenting.
Kim Joo-hyuk came to his senses for a moment and opened his mouth.
“But the bottom line is that they’re fighting because they both like you, right?”
I barely listened to it in the second half, but… … No, he listened to Baekho while thinking about something completely different, but he already had enough knowledge about the relationship between Baekho and the two women.
That’s because even if you didn’t pay attention to the second half, you already heard about the relationship between Baekho and the two women in the beginning.
“therefore… … “Did you say one is a Suzaku and the other is a Phoenix?”
“right.”
“And Suzaku is similar to your fiancée from before… … “Something like that?”
“okay.”
“And did the phoenix know you?”
“We were a little friendly. In any case, there aren’t many Shinsu.”
In response to Baekho’s continued words, Kim Joo-hyuk nodded and spoke with a “hmm” voice.
“Those two fight because they want you… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk muttered that and wondered what kind of comfort and advice he should give him, but quickly shook his head.
No matter how much I thought about it, I had never encountered a situation like that before.
So, after thinking for a while, Kim Joo-hyuk just tapped Baekho on the shoulder.
“cheer up.”
The consolation ended with those few words.
I’ll say it again, since Kim Joo-hyuk has never experienced this situation before, I couldn’t really comfort him.
Tuk-tuk-
With that in mind, Baekho tapped Baekho’s shoulder for a moment, then Baekho sighed and opened his mouth, looking at Kim Joo-hyuk with a somewhat wistful expression.
“Yes, it comforts me a little to hear that.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, I shouldn’t have to suffer like this when you are there too.”
“… … what?”
“What?”
“No, I shouldn’t have to suffer like this when you’re here too…” … “What does that mean?”
Kim Joo-hyuk asks with a puzzled expression.
Baekho looked at him with a slightly dazed expression and then opened his mouth.
“… … “Didn’t you get your name back?”
“Of course you got it back, right?”
“Then what do you remember?”
“Your memories haven’t all come back yet?”
At Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, Baekho had a blank expression for a moment, but then his eyes widened as if he had just figured it out, and then he nodded to himself.
“Well… … .”
Soon, I mumbled those words and looked at Kim Joo-hyuk.
“???”
Kim Joo-hyuk looks puzzled by Baekho’s sudden change in attitude.
Baekho looked like he understood everything and patted Kim Joo-hyuk on the shoulder and spoke.
“This can be happen.”
“How could that be?”
“cheer up.”
“???”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who was looking at Baekho with a strange expression when he suddenly said something incomprehensible, frowned and opened his mouth to ask what on earth he was talking about.
“It would be better to recall that memory rather than say it myself.”
Kim Joo-hyuk looked like he couldn’t understand Baekho’s words, but then he waved his hands off as if he was satisfied and opened his mouth.
“So, until now, I’ve only heard about the hardships you’ve endured, so I couldn’t ask you, but have you found all your memories?”
“If you’re talking about me, most of my memories have been recovered.”
Baekho responds like that to Kim Joo-hyuk.
“Then I guess you found all the memories you were curious about? Starting with why you became a member of the Labyrinth Lord. “Tell me something about that.”
Kim Joo-hyuk continued, and Baekho nodded.
“I was already going to tell you that story.”
He soon said that and handed over to Kim Joo-hyuk the information he remembered after finding his memories.
Kim Joo-hyuk listened to the story for a while and soon came to a conclusion.
“To put it in a nutshell, you also deliberately came to the Labyrinth Lord, hiding most of your name, so that you could meet me first?”
“yes.”

“The reason is?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, Baekho looked up and pointed at Kim Joo-hyuk.
“Your body now.”
“… … flesh?”
“Yes, I confirmed that your soul was already in this labyrinth, but there was no body that could accept your soul.”
“… … So you came in in the flesh?”
Baekho nodded at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
“To be exact, I brought in one of the fragments you left behind when you died.”
Afterwards, Baekho told Kim Joo-hyuk how the fragments he brought with him were made into Kim Joo-hyuk’s body.
“Well, if you just think about it, the fragment you brought naturally became a body in the labyrinth, and I naturally took over the body, right?”
“Yes, that’s why you didn’t reincarnate.”
At Baekho’s words, Kim Joo-hyuk nodded as if he understood how things were going.
“… … for a moment.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Then that voice… … “Who on earth is this?”
Soon Kim Joo-hyuk thought about the voice.
The voice that had told his disciples and guides in advance that he would be reincarnated.
“… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk remained silent and began to think about the voice for a while, but soon realized that no particular answer was coming, so he ended his thinking about the voice by sighing and shaking his head.
####
Exactly one day after dealing with both the dwarves and the fish king species.
The moment when Kim Joo-hyuk was about to go up to the labyrinth, leaving the white tiger behind, saying that he would rest further below and escape from the troubles for a few days.
“Why aren’t you coming up?”
“Didn’t you say it would come up later?”
“Uh, uh… … that is.”
With really good timing, I was able to see Suzaku and Phoenix coming down from the labyrinth and talking(?) with the white tiger.
“No, I’m late because I have a lot to talk about. Rather, how did you guys get down…? … ?”
“He… … No, I told the guide and he sent me down.”
“But are you staying here like this, making me wait?”
“So, I have a lot to talk about… … .”
“You look relaxed despite the amount of people there.”
“… … .”
“Well, but it’s okay. “I like you like that~”
It’s hell. The phoenix looks at the white tiger with an expression such as, “The phoenix smiles and then talks.”
“This bitch is really… … .”
Suzaku immediately frowned and looked at the phoenix, but she smiled at the white tiger as if she didn’t even see Suzaku’s gaze in the first place.
“I-I don’t care either! “You don’t have to come up.”
Although Suzaku was irritated, he immediately looked at Baekho and spoke.
It was Baekho who looked much more at ease.
“Because I can stay here too.”
“… … what?”
Looking at Baekho, whose face soon hardened again, Kim Joo-hyuk shook his head in silence and came up into the labyrinth.
As soon as he came up to the labyrinth, Kim Joo-hyuk could see Jong Ri-kwon and the guide sitting in the office and diligently writing something on paper.
“What are you doing?”
“huh? “You came up quickly?”
A guide to answer Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
She waited until Kim Joo-hyuk sat down before opening her mouth.
“As expected, good timing.”
“Saying the timing is good means you have something new to say, right?”
The guide nodded as if Kim Joo-hyuk’s words were correct.
“First of all, I have to sort out the current situation, and I got new information from the dwarf and King Gwangmokcheon.”
She said that and then began to briefly summarize the current situation.
The first is a story about a black dream.
“It is said that Heukmong will return to Goesan as soon as the war is over and will not appear again until his disciples completely regain their memories.”
The second is a story about monsters.
“First, I established a communication network for the monsters and sent them back to Cheonaksan Mountain. I thought it would be a bit difficult to get them to settle down here right now.”
And the third was a story about King Gwangmokcheon and the dwarf.
“There was no information obtained from King Gwangmokcheon, but there was information obtained from the dwarf.”
“I managed to figure it out.”
“I gave you some help.”
At Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, Zhong Li-kwon, who had been quietly listening to the story next to him, opened his mouth, and the guide nodded and spoke.
“Certainly Zhong Liquan’s help was a lot.”
“What information was it?”
“Information on why the dwarf brought such a large army to attack you.”
Kim Joo-hyuk seemed to think for a moment after hearing what the guide said.
“… … “Didn’t we fight because we were enemies?”
“If they hadn’t been sealed, I wouldn’t have considered this information at all. “But not now, right?”
“… … “You said your strength is weakened right now because of the seal, right?”
The guide nodded at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
“That’s right. In the case of Mandala and Sanjeo, there was a causal relationship, and in the case of the dwarves, there was a causal relationship that all the labyrinth masters they had worked on died, but it is strange that they would do something like this just because of that.”
“… … “It’s a little strange that you chose now, unless you’re definitely short on time.”
“So I did some research. And as a result, I learned that the dwarves want your body.”
“… … “My body?”
The guide nodded to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
“Yes, your body.”
“… … “What are you going to do with my body?”
“Manifestation.”
“If it is the incarnation… … .”
The guide nodded and spoke at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
“Yes, the dwarves tried to use your body as an incarnation of themselves. “In order to unseal it a little faster than the original seal.”
“… … Why on earth? Anyway, if what you say is true, it won’t be long before the seal is released, right?”
The guide nodded to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
“That’s right, it won’t be long until they are unsealed. But the problem is that I haven’t been able to figure out why the dwarf tried to make you appear in the flesh.”
“You didn’t find out?”
“He committed suicide just as he was about to find out.”
Kim Joo-hyuk made a tsk-tsk look at Zong Li-kwon’s words, but the guide looked at his expression and smiled.
“There’s no need to make that face. In the end, we benefited from the moment we figured out what they were trying to do.”
“… … ?”
Kim Joo-hyuk has a questioning expression. His facial expression is a guide.
“Maybe if everything goes as I think, we can end this situation a little faster.”
I said those words.
