Possessing Nothing

[282] Strait of Black Dragon (4)

“Hey."

Beyond the sound of the campfire burning, you hear the voice of the Black Dragon Cove. Lee Sung-min, who was meditating with his diaphragm, opened his eyes slightly. Behind the flames sits the Black Dragon Cove.

“…… do you know my name? ”

“I know a star called the Black Dragon Cove. ”

“His name is Legon. ”

I thought it was unnatural. Three days have passed since the Black Dragon Coven joined the party.

I heard that the chase started, but the chasers were incredibly slow.

Meanwhile, the Samaritan wagon ran relentlessly toward the north, leaving a tremendous distance between the chasers.

After three days, the Black Dragon Cow did not speak to anyone. I didn't sleep, I didn't eat.

Scarlet talks a few times, but he doesn't answer. Even the tetrarch didn't ask the Black Dragon Cow about anything anymore.

For the Black Dragon Coven, three days were silent. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and spoke his name.

Scarlet, who was writing a book on such actions, raised his head and Yehwa, who was looking after the fire, looked up. The posture was that the Masked Master was not interested.

“It was my mother who named me. You don't think that's a last name? I only changed the spelling of the dragon. I can't help it. My mother was illiterate. ”

The voice of the Black Dragon Cove speaking about him was grave.

“Mother was the daughter of a woodcutter. Lived deep in a mountain forest. Father...... The encounter with the dragon was a coincidence, and there was no romance like that from the old stories. I happened to notice that my mother's appearance was a dragon's taste... That was the end of it. Everything I was born into was a coincidence. ”

Lee Sung-min untied his crown and faced the Black Dragon Cove. I didn't know why he suddenly started talking like this, but I didn't think the Black Dragon Cow was lying.

“My mother made the face of the dreaming girl when she talked about the dragon, the father. It was nothing you wouldn't understand. The illiterate woodcutter's daughter met the dragon and gave birth to the dragon's child. Moreover, the dragon with the polymorph had a superior appearance than any man her mother had ever seen, so the woodcutter's daughter must have felt like a dream of playing with fire that night. ”

“…… So? ”

“That's how I was born. When I was a child, I was filled with revolt against the dragon father. My mother began to die of the sequelae of giving birth to a creature she shouldn't have, and my grandfather, the woodcutter, blamed me. The villagers regarded my existence as a curse rather than a blessing. For me, my father, the dragon, was the one who gave it all up. ”

It was a depressing past. I didn't expect to hear it suddenly, so I had no choice but to think about the look on Lee's face.

Scarlet covers the booklet in peace. Yehwa swallows the embarrassment and adds firewood to the campfire.

“Dragons are called magical manipulations. I couldn't use words that were only available to dragons. Mixed doesn't make it superior. I was incapable of magic. You can't use words, you can handle Mana, but you can't use magic. Human blood and dragon blood mixed badly. ”

“Is that why you're a trained artisan? ”

“There was also refusal. I hated dragons, so I didn't want to use magic. Fortunately...... the shaman was a perfect match for me. My body was not only as strong as the dragons, but also some of the dragons' superiority over Mana remained. ”

“You don't seem to like dragons very much. Why did you want to move to a dragon dimension? ”

“Because I was lonely. ”

The Black Dragon Cove replies.

“As a demigod, I belong nowhere. That's why I wanted to meet the dragon. I didn't know if they would accept me, but I... wanted to meet a dragon. And my father.”

The Black Dragon Cove giggles.

“I thought a lot for three days. I don't like my father very much. I hated him when I was a kid. But over the centuries, I've thought about wanting to meet. Knowing he was dead... I was angry. When I learned that the barding you wore was made of the material of my father's corpse, I hated you. ”

“Of course.”

“I'm quitting. ”

A black dragon's nest crashes over your head.

“Like I said, I was an unhappy father. A father I'd never seen before. I know you didn't kill my father. So...... I won't hate you. Telling you my past, telling you my name, was to organize my feelings in my own way. Because you said we could be friends. ”

I didn't think much of it.

“What I did as a Muslim swordsman put you in trouble. Do I have to apologize…… for that? I don't know about this. Most of my actions were in accordance with extraterrestrial decrees. ”

“…… No. There's no need to apologize. ”

Lee hesitated for a moment and shook his head. It was because I had no idea that the Black Dragon Cow would get rid of everything in this way.

Of course, I wasn't sure that the attitude of the Black Dragon Cow was true, but the honest story of the Black Dragon Cow was enough to confuse the rational people.

[I see you're not feeling too confident. Or is it the situation?]

The presence of the tetrarch suppresses the Black Dragon Cow. I accompanied them, but I had no choice but to keep an eye on the privatist.

His attitudes and stories may also be to conscious the tetrarch and to clear his boundaries.

“I don't know how long I'll be accompanying you, but I'm asking you nicely. ”

The Black Dragon Cow said that first. Lee Sung-min raised his hands and stretched them out, looking at his jealous hands.

Holding hands, the Black Dragon Cove grins. Lee Sung-min thought the smile was suspicious, but he was silent because he was not in the position to chase after the Black Dragon Strait.

The journey to the north was long. The group knew very well that the chase of the Muslims was a show.

They may not have been able to confirm the death of the Black Dragon Cow, but they can't leave the owner and his group who turned the blind blind into shrubs.

That's how the pursuers were organized. To restore the dignity of the fallen Muslims. Yeah, in a big way.

But he was so blind to it. that the power of the blind cannot defeat the private stockman alone.

That's why the pursuit of the chase is late. It was not only the pride of the sectarian Muslims that the grove was broken, but also their common sense that they were abducted by the Black Dragon Cove.

One master…… smashed the true code of the Hundred.

“Perhaps the blade moves. ”

It's still a long way north of Travia. Throughout the journey, the Black Dragon Cow acted vigorously, proving that he had cleared his mind. He didn't even ask, but voluntarily gave his opinion.

“I was a blind man, but I would never do anything for a blind man. Most of it was extraterrestrial. ”

“So you were a scarecrow. ”

“Yes. It didn't really suit me to lead the blind. For them, I was a hybrid of dragons, not humans, and I'm no different from any of my other sworn candidates. I was good with no balls. ”

Lee Sung-min remembered what happened in Shaolin. At that time, the non-immortal ambassador was recommended for the Muslim position.

Of course, the immortal ambassador refused him. If you measure the level of non-performance-free metabolism...... it should not be compared to the Black Dragon Strait.

However, being the best adult in Shaolin and the most prestigious master was suitable for the position of the oath, aside from the announcement of the independence.

“The existence of the sword line was difficult for me, the blind man, and for the crown jeweler. I told you not to provoke atheism. ”

“But the sword line might move? ”

“The sword line is...... because it's unmanned, after all. You've done too much. Your actions have torn and trampled the pride of a sectarian, not blind. ”

“You mean the sword may be out there to help him recover? ”

Lee Sung-min recalled the sword's winning sword. It was an unstoppable statue of the Black Swordsmanship that was shot fiercely from beyond the distant streets. Black Dragon Cow nodded at Lee Sung-min's question.

“Most likely. Even if he's holed up, he's definitely in Wudang. ”

“It doesn't matter.”

The tetrarch looked comfortable. It was a long journey, but he was looking out the window relaxed as if he were coming out for a drink in the neighborhood.

“When I thought about beating you, beating you blind. He had already anticipated that it could be frictionless with the blade. If I was afraid of the sword line, I wouldn't have done it. ”

“Are you confident? ”

“You have to try something to know. The current agenda precedes fear. ”

“Are you not afraid of death? ”

The Black Dragon Cow looks ridiculous and asks. The question was right for the tetrarch. He chuckles.

“Isn't that the difference between fast and late? Rather than die helplessly whilst waiting, it is much more pleasant for the throne to choose and enjoy. ”

The Black Dragon Cove could not understand the word of a quadriplegic. The tetrarch himself did not want to understand the Black Dragon Cove.

The tetrarch, looking at the black dragon cove looking at himself with a dazed face, looks out the window.

The sun was setting. When the sun went down, stopping the wagon was one of the rules set for this long journey.

There was no need to rush it, but it was due to a private order to enjoy the long journey as if it were a journey.

“A pupil.”

“Yes, Master. ”

“How are you feeling? ”

The voice of the tetrarch who asked me that was very sweet. Beyond the mask, you see a gentle smile on the owner's face.

Lee Sung-min felt his back cold.

Lee was not in a bad state. Since the battle with Chang, the tetrarch has been taking care of Lee's bloodline every day, and thanks to him, his stacked strength disappeared completely.

But I haven't boosted my record since the fight. It was because he was wearing a mask, following the word of the tetrarch.

“…… Not bad. ”

“Not bad. It's gonna be great.”

The tetrarch is dying. The wagon suddenly stops.

The tetrarch sent a message to the painting of the horse rack. The tetrarch raised his finger and pointed to Lee Sung-min and the Black Dragon Cove.

“It's time for a camping trip. It's been a long time since I've seen you without a job. ”

“…… Yes? ”

That said, Lee Sung-min's eyes opened wide.

“I haven't moved properly for a long time, but I'm sure my body hasn't hardened. ”

“Are you okay? ”

The rush of force was already in the past, but it was the scourge who warned him not to take off his mask and not to use a shaman.

Although several months had passed since then, he still could not completely trust his body.

“You can't leave me alone forever, can you? ”

“But…"

“There's no need to be afraid. And, for the rest of your life, the throne can't cover for you. ”

I can't replace you.

Lee Sung-min's words were blocked.

[It needs to be prepared.]

In Lee Sung-min's head, a voice of carelessness rang.

[As you travel with the tetrarch, you are able to do things on behalf of the tetrarch that you cannot do on your own. But you can't always ask for the help of a quadriplegic.]

‘I know. ’

He was also becoming aware of it. He had no intention of relying on the tetrarch.

If he does not have the power to solve the problem himself, he will become helpless at the crucial moment and do nothing.

[The tetrarch must know him. I can't help you forever.]

‘Maybe he's just being grumpy. ’

[I don't think so. I don't know what you think of him, but as your teacher, he's been doing things like a teacher. It's the same now.]

That said, Lee Sung-min smiled bitterly. Lee Sung-min also knew. That the master secretly takes care of himself as a disciple.

[Maybe you can feel it for sure.]

I was a little curious about what Heju assured me. Lee Sung-min did not ask about him, but grabbed the mask on his face with his hands.

…… gripping jobs.

The moment I took off my mask.

There was an electrical current in Lee's blood.
