Possessing Nothing

[272] Abel (4)

I'm not embarrassed. The extraterrestrial ceiling has been blatantly aiming for Ji Ho-yeon. They didn't know what they were after, but it was definitely connected to W. Hoenn's purpose.

“In fact, the script didn't want anything to do with her, nor did it want to disturb the heavenly heavens. ”

It must have been true. Had the tetrarch in the first place intended to disturb the expanse, he would never have kept Wijihoen away from him.

But what the tetrarch did was a thorough bystander and grazing.

Even in Legro Forest. In fact, Wijiho-yeon could leave the forest at any time if she wanted to. The reason she didn't leave was simply because she stayed in the forest.

“I don't know what the purpose is. I didn't think it had anything to do with what they were doing. At that point, I didn't want to leave the forest, and I didn't care what the thousands of thousands of them were trying to do. ”

“Not anymore? ”

“Haven't you chosen? ”

Seong-min immediately answered the question, and Seong-min was speechless. After a brief silence, Seong-min grumbled with a sigh.

“I don't know why you said that to me. ”

“Just as I said. We respect Osla's word. You have some respect. I respect your choice. ”

“That's it? ”

“No, that's not it. ”

The tetrarch chuckles.

“The chapter needed a…… I mean… trigger. What should the locus do? As I said, it's unpleasant that the script is an end, but that doesn't mean it has to act. ”

That said, Lee Sung-min felt like he had seen a side of privatism that he had never known until now.

At the same time, he was a little unreasonable. The owner who had seen Lee Seong-min until now was arrogant and self-centered.

Don't you think it's inconsistent that he wants to be inspired by others?

“There's a limit to what the script wants to do. ”

In Lee Sung-min's question, the tetrarch did not have any long concerns, but immediately answered.

“What the script wants to do is practice without balls. In fact, if you think about it, there's very little that I want to do other than that. ”

The tetrarch said so, and looked into the eyes of Lee Sung-min.

“You know that. ”

“…… what? ”

“Denir's ordeal is cruel. The spirit world that begins and reaches through trials. There is only me in the white world. prolonged time, long time that must be forced to endure. No matter how obsessed you are, it's not easy to spend that long time. Naturally...... I'm losing my mind. They think and think desperately to capture the madness. I'm afraid of forgetting things, thinking about how to catch myself. ”

I know. So did Lee Sung-min. However, in the case of Lee Sung-min, there were several special cases.

Denire, the one who put him through that, was horrified. Lee Sung-min's mind has collapsed in Denir's psyche several times.

However, the collapsed spirit naturally recovered over time, which allowed Lee Sung-min to endure a long time of 2100 years.

But not others. Envirus, Samaritan, and Pacifier.

“All I ever wanted was a free man. I just thought it would be the lowest. Most of the other winds are blurred. It is still not that different. I was concerned about the private stockpile where the main course was, but that... wasn't hard work either. That's how your priest flashed. ”

Sung-min chewed his lower lip well.

I smile and think of the white sogo that said I would eradicate evil without any worries.

Saxony said it himself. I only have my wife. It means that she is aware of her own twist.

I can't help but know. For a long time, a thousand years, the Saxogo was only for that. Although the time in reality is fleeting, it is a long and long time that she has spent in the spiritual world. Her existing personality is clouded, and the broken conclusions that have been examined for a long time have become a belief to support her.

“Poor thing.”

The tetrarch chuckled.

“This wind cannot be fulfilled. It's impossible to eradicate evil. Absolute righteousness doesn't exist in this world. Making yourself a benchmark of justice is just proof of the madman. ”

It reminds me of the first Baxogo I met on Mt. Mesh. With a faint smile on her face, I told her I was a good person. Is goodness justice?

I didn't know Lee Sung-min. It was because he had never cared much about good and evil in his life.

“Do you know the location of W. Hoenn? ”

After postponing the thought of Saxony for a moment, Lee Sung-min asked about Wei Ji Ho-yeon. Beyond the eyeholes of the mask, the mistress frowns.

“How do you know the script? ”

“Then how do you find her? ”

“If you ask for information, you'll find eyewitness information from somewhere. But it's annoying to wait around until then. ”

The tetrarch mutters and grabs his chin.

“Let's just go for a walk. ”

“…… Yes? ”

“Blindness. I don't know where the superstition is, but the Black Dragon Cove is connected to the heavens and the earth. If we arrest him and interrogate him, we can learn more about the superstitions and the heavenly bodies. ”

“…… No, I mean. How do you meet the Black Dragon Coven? ”

“What are you thinking about? We'll just have to find him. ”

“You mean you'll see him when you find him? ”

“What if I say I don't want to see you? Do you think two Transcendent Coriander could stop them? ”

“…… Why two? ”

When I became a normal person, the shaman raised his hand. Lee Sung-min blinked his head and retreated.

The tetrarch sighs deeply, lowering his hand down again.

“How can you understand each and every one of them? ”

“Just in case. ”

“Are you saying that you, as a disciple, will not go? ”

“So...... what the teacher said. Me and the teacher, we go to the Muslim blind. Grab hold of the neck of the Beastly Black Dragon Cow and ask him about the crown... ”

“I intend to. ”

“What are you going to do about the backhaul? ”

“That depends on how they do it. ”

The tetrarch said it wasn't bulky, but it wasn't so light to say.

Suppressing the Black Dragon Cove may be easy for a rational person, but it shouldn't be that difficult if the tetrarch runs out on his own.

And then what?

“I'm not afraid to walk into a fight. Maybe this will lead to a sword inspection... Hmm. I'll think about it then. ”

“Isn't that a little out of control? ”

“Then, do you have a reasonable solution? There's an apocalypse coming, and what do we have to do to fight it? ”

“Why don't you go see Osla? ”

“I don't know. I doubt I'll ever see you again. Osla asked me to leave the forest, so the throne is here. If she doesn't want to meet us, no matter what it takes, it's impossible for us to get into the woods with our legs. Rather than that, it is easier and faster to hit a Black Dragon Cow with a clear location. ”

“… OK. ”

Eventually, he had to nod his head.

It wasn't like he was going into the limelight right away, so Seong-min broke up with the owner and went to the place of Baek Sogo.

We had drinks and talked a lot until the morning sun came up. Then, Seong-min realized how much distortion the Saxogo had.

I don't empathize with the beliefs of the White Sogo. It is absurd to eradicate evil.

I know, but for a thousand years, it was only in the spirit world that it was natural to go mad that the belief of the Baeksugo had endured it.

Denying a distorted belief face-to-face was not something that a rational person could do.

It will not be easily denied, and if denial of belief is gained by the White Sogo.

What will happen to her?

[You're scared after all.]

Heju is dead.

[You are afraid that your sorcerer will fail even more than now. I'm also afraid you'll deny her beliefs and be hated by her.]

Lee Seong-min chewed his lower lip.

[Or you're wishing you hadn't. To let your sorcerer realize for himself. How absurd your beliefs are, and how distorted your ideals are. But do you think realizing yourself will stop your madman?]

‘You'll be devastated.’

[You know better. Admit what you have to admit. There are no more priests you remember. All that remains now is a madman who has been thinking alone for a thousand years to come to his own conclusion and mistaken it for an absolute answer.]

“Then I must stop the Sage. ”

Seong-min spit it out.

“I... don't know. Justice is such a sweet thing to say. ”

[What about hypocrisy and malice?]

“Don't ask me. ”

Lee Seong-min spits it out. He stands in front of a visit to Baek Sogo. After clearing her throat, Lee Sung-min knocked on the door.

But I didn't hear an answer inside. I knocked again, but there was no response. No, I knew the truth. Lee Seong-min slowly opened the door.

The room was empty. Like it's been empty from the start. The bed was neatly laid out, and there were no traces of anyone using the room.

Lee walked slowly into the room. Lee looked around the room.

There was a letter on the desk. Lee Sung-min picked up the letter. The food was dry a long time ago. I guess they broke up in the morning and left right away. Lee Sung-min read the letter.

In a bold sentence, there was anxiety and fear. White Sogo, Sasha. I knew it well. That someone else said it wasn't right. Bigoted and selfish. It's a girl. Self-advised, he was well aware of all the blame.

I had no choice but to know. Even if it's unsettling, it's because it's been carrying the bago.

- I'm sorry I didn't get to say hi, Priest. I wanted to stay with the priest a little longer. Actually, I'm scared. I can't help it. I'm a human being.

It's been a thousand years, long and lonely. I guess the thoughts and concerns that I've been trying not to go crazy have driven me crazy. Maybe I'm not right. I know it's selfish. What the owner said. What the priest didn't tell me. I'm aware of that.

But you know what, priest? I've thought about it for 1,000 years, and I've come to my own conclusion. I mean, I... Even if I know I'm not right, I have to act on my own to answer for sure. Evil eradication. Funny thing, but I really want to act on it.

I'm scared, but I have to be. Sometimes I hear voices in my head. Every time I hear it, I realize it. I'm really freaking out.

You said you were going to Wudang. I don't know if I can get the answers I want there. Still... I'm going to try. I've never been to Wudang. Actually, I wanted to go with the priest. Priest, you know what? How beautiful Wudang Mountain is. When winter comes and spring comes, Wudang Mountain is said to be bursting with bright yellow curry and biting with golden light. I wish I could go with a priest someday.

I'm fine, Priest. Fear, anxiety... But... I still believe in myself. So I need you to trust me, too.

We'll see each other again.

The letter ended suddenly like that. The writing in the letter was worse than the line that Baek Sogo used to write with a branch on the mountain. Lee stood there for a long time, even though he had read all the letters.

Aren't you coming to get me?]

Heju asked. Lee folded the letter and put it in his chest.

“…… Sager told you. Trust me."

[You want to trust a madman?]

“Trust me."

Seong-min nodded his head.

“Because Sager believes in himself. ”

Still, I wish I could say goodbye.

Lee Sung-min thought, touching the bracelet on his wrist.
