Learn Martial Arts

Evening hours. Most of the food that went up to the table in the memory of Baek Hyun was delivery food. Or ramen. Sometimes, when Seo Ming came to visit, handmade dishes went up.

“Oh, my God.”

Baek Hyun mutters when he sees the food set on the table. It was an imaginary visual.It wasn't a bad word. Baek Hyun turns his head and looks at Sarah. Sarah, turning her arms behind her back and loosening the knot on the apron, raises her head to the gaze of Whitehorn.

“What do you see? ”

“Didn't you deliver it? ”

Sarah's face cools when she asks. Baek Hyun added with a cold chopstick.

“No, that's how great I am. ”

“Why don't you say something to eat? ”

“I heard you eat good food with your eyes and nose before you eat it with your mouth...”

He sniffs his nose and smells like garbage. There was no blemish in the smell. Sarah snorts with excitement as she looks at the shivering eyes of Baek Hyun. She didn't lift her tee down, but there was a sober smile.

“Don't you eat? ”

“I'll eat well. ”

Did Sarah really make this? Restrictions filled with dining tables. Various meals, including snacks and beef. Koreans are everyday dishes, but that doesn't mean they can't be underestimated. I used to eat it a lot, so it's hard to think it's delicious. The first place where the chopsticks were headed was the soybean drowning.

It was delicious.

I had no texture, no taste, no wooden place. What a delicious seafood you can't make! I can't believe Baek Hyun stares at Sarah. Sitting across the street, Sarah smiles and looks at Baek Hyun. Sarah's nostrils seem a little higher than before.

The food was brilliant without anything to eat. Although it was subtly felt that Sarah, who had an awkward-looking relationship with the Koreans, made an appetite, didn't it just taste good? Sarah smiles at the winner as she picks up the dishes and empties the dishes.

“Do you think you've been doing nothing for a year? ”

There were a variety of reasons for cooking as a hobby. The reason I started was because of the advice of the colony. When Baek Hyun comes back later, why don't you feed him yourself? It was harsh, and it was fun to do it. There were other pleasures and rewards than when I learned nothing. Especially now. Sarah's unrelenting appetite made her feel rewarded to cook as a hobby for a year.

After three meals of air, I finished my meal. There was not one of the dishes that was full at the table. Sarah smiles with a satisfactory expression.

“Was it delicious?”

“I thought I'd go to a restaurant and eat. ”

“Tell me if you want something to eat. I'll do it.”

The moment I tried to answer that, I heard a voice in my head.

“What's going on? ”

“The colony must be back. ”

I also told Sarah about Arachne's communication function. But the voice that was heard in his head was not the voice of the colony. Baek Hyun released the Arachne on his left wrist and gave it to Sarah.

[Do you hear me?]

It was the voice of Chanak. Baek Hyeon replied in antioch.

“Yes, I can hear you. ”

[I heard he's dead, but he's alive.]

“It's true you were dead. I've been to hell.”

[... hell? Have you ever met a demon or a demon king?]

But as a black magician, Shanak asked about it with a surprised voice. Baek Hyun recalled Jeruol and the Demon King of the Dance. Is Jeruol alive? I don't know about the Demon King of Dance, but I don't think the spirit that took away the door of Yungyun will forgive Jeruol.

“I met him. Why? ”

[You know the legendary musician Robert Johnson, right?]

“Who is that? ”

[It's an old musician. The man who sold his soul to the devil who met him at the crossroads. You've met a demon or a demon king, so you have to be a musician...]

Chanak's voice was cut off, full of passion.

[She's still an idiot.]

It was the voice of a sewing doll. You can hear Shanak grumbling around his voice. Baek Hyun leans back while smiling.

“How are you? ”

[Except for the trouble with that fool, I was fine. What else do you mean, you're here?]

“I don't think it's good to go there. You can think of a sightseeing trip. ”

[It's just the same forest everywhere I look, but there's no tourism. When did you get back?]

“How many hours ago? ”

[I gave you a hable, but I didn't think that hable would even handle a causal storm. What else do you mean, you met the Demon King and the Devil? Are you just kidding?]

“No, it's real. ”

Baek Hyun told me about what happened in the commandment. As Sarah already said, she didn't show much interest. The dining table where the cutlery was spread out turned into a clean bird. Not having to do household chores, such as dishes or cleaning, was one of the many advantages of being perforated.

[You don't go through a normal thing no matter how you die.]

“It's not normal to die. ”

[Everyone dies. It's normal.]

The sewing doll smiled and said, No. Are you the nightmare maker?

[I never thought I'd hear of you as the Demon King of Dance. It's a very famous name for creatures who know about machetes.]

“What do you think of seeds? ”

Did you say that you met him?.. Hmm, it's too early, but it's not unlikely. No, I think it's a good chance. Thinking about the nature of the drink.]

“So?”

[Pure Saint wasn't a black wizard. It wasn't the Demons, it wasn't related to the Drinks. That's when I saw her myself. So... there's no way that Pure Saint came from a drink.]

But now Pure Saint is associated with Masin. If so, it is likely that the Black Rose Queen had the seed of Machin, as Azine said, and that Pure Saint thought he had taken him.

[Have you met Serras?]

“I'm going to go a little later. ”

I have entrusted the soul of the Thousand Wands, and I wanted to apologize personally for postponing this appointment.

[Imagine the worst, was that... azine? It's rare to have such an unknown existence. Anyway, he's right. Drinks are meant to receive the whole world rather than the source of chaos itself.]

“The rapids are all hoping for a source of chaos. I guess they're not the shooters. ”

[It's a power you don't need. In fact, Abyss' creeds want the source of chaos, because they all lack something and have a longing that will never be fulfilled. But there's nothing like it. A dizzy craving can be accomplished with their strength. And... the source of chaos is dangerous enough for the elite. From their point of view, there's more to lose than they get.]

The decision maker of the nightmare said so and was silent for a moment.

[... Susie doesn't fit. In exchange for this world... it's too cheap for a demon to help. Anything else?]

“What do you have? ”

[I think the demon may be poisoned... well, Abyss?]

“Abyss?”

[It's a story of when you can get it. If Abyss is a demon, he should be poisoned. It's wider than Earth. Two worlds will be rewarded in return for a little help. That's enough to drink.]

If that's the case, it hurts. The nightmare maker murmured.

[Think about it. You and Azine took the Mirror of Shin from the commandment, didn't they? That too, in front of what the drink sees. Of course, from your point of view, I only heard the words of desperation to return to this world, but I don't know. Do you think that's how you drink it? From Marcin's point of view, you've become the forerunner of the siege and snatched away the door of the Shin Gyeonggi that Marcin had.]

“... would you say? ”

[In Marcin's view, it would be easier and more convenient to retaliate against you than to retaliate against him, right? Previously, Drinks would have helped Pure St. with some kind of investment concept, but now it's even more personal than you.]

I had a full dinner and felt good, but I felt like my stomach was getting dirty because I was listening to the nightmare maker. Baek Hyun touches his chest with a low cough.

“No wonder the drink is so narrow. ”

[You have a pride problem, right? Well, you don't have to worry about it right now. I don't know what Marcin means or what Pure Saint means, but seeing what Pure Saint has done so far... "Yet" doesn't reveal his ambition explicitly. Are we aiming for a decisive moment?]

“Not that story. What about the Amazon side? I heard your followers are over there too. ”

[Oh, where'd you hear that? That's classified. Shanak only heard about it when he got to the Amazon.]

The Nightmare Decider smiles.

[Nothing has been identified yet. This jungle is so wide and hard, it's filled with monsters.]

“What about exploratory magic?”

[I tried. It didn't work? It's obvious that my level of navigational magic doesn't work.]

Alcohol law.

“Reverse puncture?”

[Exactly. He may not be here himself, but he's doing something on Amazon. And to Matador. And then we have a slight contour. You said, 'The wanderer of the world is dead. ’]

Baek Hyun nods. According to Afras' records, the wanderer, the world eater, and Chimai were swallowed up by chaos and completely lost themselves. In other words, there is only flesh left. It is like dead.

[But the power of the follower must have been conferred by the wanderer of the legacy. But the wanderer of the world is dead... and so is the bloody lion. In that fight, the blood must have vanished. But Matador still has power.]

“Is that possible? ”

[Originally impossible. But in these exceptional cases, it's not possible.]

The nightmare maker pauses.

[Hendred's not dead, is he?]

“Probably, yes. ”

[Hendred's power was to eat something and add to himself. Hundred... ate the wanderer of the world. And they took away the blood of the deceased that should have been given to you.]

“... wait. So you're saying Matador and his followers are the same? ”

[They have the same rapidity. If Hendred really ate the wanderer of the world, and was drunk to the rapids of the blood... this also hurts a lot. When the Necromancers first came to Abyss, Huntdred wasn't that great. Rather on a weak axis. The same goes for the wanderer of the legacy.]

But not now. Hundred ate the wanderer of the legacy and drank as a fisherman to the rapids of the blood. It was originally not great, but it swallowed two kidneys. Moreover, Abyss' blood was the supreme replacement among the gods.

[It's gonna be hard to deal with. A man of varying abilities has gained the power of a wanderer and a bloodhound. I don't know why I'm still stuck with the counter-piercing, even though I have enough power.]

The nightmare maker muttered and laughed.

[There were too many words. He must have kept me waiting too long by the side.]

[Yes. The monarch has a lot to say.]

I hear a grumbling voice. Baek Hyun, who was leaning backwards squeaking the chair, immediately set up the chair in shock at the voice of the West Colony.

“Colonel!”

[Heads ringing] Can you keep your voice down?]

“I've seen it in a year. What are you doing so badly? ”

[Why, when I'm back from the dead, should I cry and give you a welcome?]

The voice of the colony was mixed with laughter, even though he said it in silence. Baek Hyun smiled face to face and said:

“You're a reservist? ”

And I laughed and I said,

Honestly, I couldn't smile. Being an Apostle of Tempest is because I like it in many ways. The colonists laughed as if they knew how to ask that question.

[Uh, no problem. Don't worry, man.]

“Really?”

I like what Valencia said. I don't even know if Tempest is right. When asked what that means, Valencia still said something unknown.

[I'm better than I used to be. I didn't know why you were doing this to me then, but I know it now.]

“What do you mean? ”

[I met Tempest.]

Seong-colony said it's not algebraic.

[The process of meeting is a lot of dicks, and it's hard. He shoots for a long time, so he tells me where he is, if he can't stand it.]

“What did you do when you met him? ”

[Well, we talked about it. I don't want to tell you much, so don't ask me.]

“Can't you tell me? ”

[No, it's not a very interesting story. Anyway... talk about staying, being a reservist.]

“... is that the end? ”

[I don't want to tell you any more.]

It was a decisive attitude, unlike Seo Min-kik. Still, I thought it was a good thing my voice sounded different than usual.

[Hyun.]

That's good. I was going to celebrate, but Seo Min-sik called Baek Hyun first.

“Why?"

[Are you and I friends?]

It was a sudden question, a question I didn't have to ask. Baek Hyun frowned and laughed ridiculously.

“So what if you and I aren't friends? ”

[Yes, a friend. That's right.]

Seo Min-kyung laughed and laughed, as if he could match Baek Hyun's laugh.

“How many years have you and I known? 20 years? It's nice to meet you at the orphanage...”

[That's right. Come to think of it, you really know it for a long time. But that's, why, meeting you at the orphanage for more than 20 years, wanting you back when you were a botanical man, and that bastard is a clone. Isn't it?]

“Have you been drinking? What do you keep saying? Is that the colony, or is it someone else? ”

[I'm Seo Min Colony, right?]

It's sudden again. The voice of Seocolony, which had just been laughing before, was completely dry.

“... a colony. ”

Baek Hyun also took the laughter out of his voice.

[That's it. Because you said you were a Seo Ming.]

“What? Are you sick? ”

[Maybe it's late puberty. Or a middle ear disease? Who am I... something like that.]

“Is that all? ”

[All of it. Oh, right. Hyun.]

I heard Seo Min-sik swallow my breath.

[You are the source of chaos, do you want it?]

Baek Hyun didn't answer right away.

How do we know about the source of chaos? That was an unquestionable question. Seo Ming said he met Tempest in person. If Tempest had told me about Abyss and chaos, there is nothing strange about the source of chaos.

“... I never thought I'd want it. ”

[I wanted to have that.]

“Because Tempest wants it? ”

[I don't have it, but I want it too.]

How should we accept that?

[For Tempest, too. But it's also for me. If... if. If I tell you to help me with that, Are you going to help me?]

“... why don't you teach me why you want to have it? ”

[Yes.]

“Why?"

[In case you despise me.]

Sarah's shoulder twitches as she hears the story. She stares at Baek Hyun without even knowing herself. Baek Hyun suddenly touched Sarah's eyes and asked her lips.

What's wrong?

Sarah crosses her head.

“Why do they despise you? ”

[If it's your personality I know, I don't think it's a contempt. But... you don't know. You don't know, but there are secrets that people can't even tell. When I was a kid, I would cry in front of school, "If it was a ballpoint pen or some bad food, it wasn't iron at the time." That's not enough.]

“What is it?”

[I said no talking, right? Answer me first. Will you help me?]

“No, don't help me. ”

[Why?]

“Because you might be a dick. ”

I watched the black rose queen die. I saw Chimairana, who had been swallowed up by chaos and left only flesh, and a healed spirit.

Baek Hyun didn't want to lose Seolmin.

[That's it.]

Seo Ming laughed. Even if I said, I was refused a favor. His voice did not contain any coldness. It sounded rather patronizing.

[Thank you for your concern.]

“I don't intend to despise you no matter what you do. ”

[I know, motherfucker. See you later.]

“Hey, wait a minute...”

Baek Hyun hurriedly tried to catch Seo Ming, but he couldn't hear his voice anymore.
