Possessing Nothing

Waving candles.

The blade across from him had a thin smile on his wrinkled face. Lee Sung-min stared at the sword with a tense face. The power to sit was the sword, and the power to talk was the sword.

However, the sword line only looked at Lee Sung-min's face without saying anything for a long time.

“How a thousand died. Can you tell me? ”

At the end of the silence, the blade's mouth opens.

Lee Seong-min swallowed a little breath. The memory was clear, so there was no problem in answering.

But there were challenges. It still troubles me to think about the memories of that time.

“Are you in pain?”

“…… No, thanks. ”

In response to the question of the sword line, Lee Sung-min exhaled and replied. There was no reason to lie, so Lee told all about what happened in the northern snow.

He did not only speak of the death of the tetrarch. She also told me about the future she saw and hoped would be the reason for going north.

The long story is over. The blade line listens to everything in a blameless posture during the story.

As he pondered the story that ended with the death of the tetrarch, the sword line closed its eyes.

“It must have been a faint line. ”

The sword line mutters in a small voice.

“Fairy tales…… contours……? ”

“In other words, it's refreshing. Attractive...... I never thought a thousand people with the star Mahjong would go first, even though the old man hasn't arrived yet. If what you're saying is true, then 1,000 was really the worst in the world. ”

I did not envy the voice of the sword saying that.

“No, it's not a folk lighthouse. Well, technically, it's not fresh. Even so, I must admire how far a thousand people have come. ”

After praising the shamanism with a smile, the sword line raised its gaze and looked up at the ceiling.

“Do you resent the godlessness? ”

“What answer do you expect from me? ”

“That's the obvious answer. And an honest answer without a lie. ”

“I resent it.”

“Of course you are. ”

Lee Sung-min's answer made me smile.

“But in the end, I want the same thing. Neither you, nor the godless. Your wish is to stop the end. ”

“Did you hear that from the Wizard's Guild Master? ”

“It was an interesting story. ”

The blade nods.

“The heavens and the earth are contradictory in their very existence. They're aiming to create a world for humanity, and they're working to stop the end of everything. On that subject, they move according to the will of the Spirit, not their own. ”

“…… The Spirit is suspicious. ”

“That's right."

Sungmin also agreed with Sungmin. No matter how much I thought about it, the spiritual will and the commandments that descended on the heavens and the earth were questionable, and there was often a contradiction between them. I can never know the true meaning of the Spirit. Moreover, I still don't understand why the spirit went out and tried to kill the tetrarch himself.

“Atheism is a puppet. ”

The sword line mutters.

“Until now, the spirits who are pouring out heavenly bodies to prevent the end of the world are acting for the end. Atheism seems to think that its own actions prevent the end of the world and save the world. ”

“The sword. What do you want? ”

“If the end is of an unstoppable nature, we must stop it.... but the old man can't leave Wudang. ”

Lee Sung-min's eyebrows twitched due to the murmur of the blade line.

“What does that even mean? ”

“Every coin mouth.”

Don't wear a coin. I didn't think you'd hear that from the sword's mouth. The sword line continued to look at the surprised Lee Sung-min.

“Too much greed. I tried to go too far, but I wasn't prepared. The coin horse destroyed the old man's armor and replaced the old man's body with a body that was alive but cannot be alive. ”

“What nonsense.... ”

“It's not a lie. ”

The sword lines run across your head.

“Sweetheart, the old man was on the high ground, and he slipped and fell through the coin mouth. It is only in Wudang that the old man is able to maintain a land that meets the stars of the sword. If we go outside this mountain, the old man will die from vomiting blood without even ten steps. ”

“…… like……. ”

“Why do you think the old man didn't go to Wudang for a long time? ”

Sungmin did not answer the question of the sword, smiling.

“With this body, the old man cannot go out on his own. That's why I focused on raising my pupil. Qingming...... He is a child with more talents than anyone the old man has ever seen. It's impossible for a child weaker than you to stop the apocalypse. ”

It was frustrating. Seong-min clenched his fist.

What the tetrarch hoped for was a swordsmanship collaboration? At the very least, the idea that the sword line would be this helpless would not have been prepared.

“Are you disappointed in your old lady? ”

“…… a little. ”

“Turn it off! You didn't think the shaman's sword was a broken old man who couldn't even get far. A thousand would have done the same. ”

“Yes.”

“But you can kill. ”

The sword line smiled and said.

Shit.

Lee Seong-min's expression was stiff as she looked at her spine. As he tries to get up, the blade opens his mouth.

“Don't move. ”

The blade does not draw. The sword meant nothing to him.

Even after the coin horse, your body is broken and you cannot leave this mountain. The sword line within this mountain was of the highest quality, skilled enough to be called the sword line.

“From the moment you entered this mountain, you have been in the streets of the old man. If the old man were willing, your neck would have fallen hundreds of times already. ”

“Are you going to kill me? ”

“A disciple of a thousand. Questions about the death of a thousand people. That's why I called you here to speak with you in person. And now I have a decision to make. ”

“Don't kill me, will you? ”

“How many people want to die in this world? That's why we're here to stop the apocalypse. I don't want to die unconditionally. ”

“I want to stop the apocalypse. ”

“Can you be sure that you are not the end? ”

The sword line asked about him.

“You said it yourself. The spirit declared that the tetrarch is the axis of the apocalypse. ”

“You're the one who said the spirit was suspicious. ”

“That's right. I doubt that the work of the spiritual mind is being cast like a puppet." Kim Jong-hyun was unable to fully awaken as the Demon King because of the interference of the heavens and earth, and Kim Jong-hyeon became one of the disasters for the end. That's what you said, too. ”

“Then why……. ”

“Think about it. ”

The blade line's eyes narrow.

“A spirit that gives orders to the heavens and the earth. You've been in touch, too. ”

Lee Sung-min's words were blocked. Ah, he remembers a long time ago.

Shaolin, yeah, Shaolin.

Immortal Ambassador, the previous master. A long time ago. A long time ago. It's a memory before it entered the spirit world, so it goes back a thousand years.

Then, in the first encounter with the Immortal Ambassador. The spirit in the body of the Immortal Ambassador said. Head north. You'll meet the nobles there.

“If the spirit wishes to end the world with a thousand thousand heavens, my child, Who are you?”

Lee Sung-min's eyes shook greatly. He swallows a dry saliva, anxiety rising.

“Haven't you also come into contact with the Spirit and moved according to the will of the Spirit? Abel tells me what you are. The existence of you was responsible for bringing an end to it. You were able to bring about the end, even if you were still alive. Then why would a spirit come into contact with you and force your actions? ”

There are no accidents in the world.

“You might as well be the Apocalypse. ”

Lee Sung-min is silent. The sword's words can't always be false. There was no way I could deny it.

“Is that why you're going to kill me? ”

“You said it was a fundamental reason. If we can stop it, we must stop the apocalypse. Luckily...... you're in the old lady's street. Into the streets so easy to cut you down. ”

“…… I'm not sure. I'm not sure I'm the end of the world. ”

“Then what are you? ”

“I am me. ”

Lee Sung-min replied while sharpening his teeth.

“Even though I moved to stop the end of the world, it was the same with superstition that I played the puppet of the spirit. Is it different because it's you? ”

“Swordstroke. You don't know for sure yourself. ”

Lee Seong-min was annoyed. He no longer spears to the sword.

“They threaten me for a fundamental reason, but they're not sure if they can really kill me. ”

“Turn it off! Yes, you're right. I honestly don't know. The old man doesn't know what the spirit wants. I may act for the end of the world, but I don't know the true nature of the spirit. Perhaps the will of the Spirit or the acts of godlessness are also meant to prevent the true end. ”

“You want to avoid the responsibility of choice. ”

Lee Seong-min jumped up and down like that.

“If you think it's right to kill me, just kill me. But you're not sure whether to kill me or not. I don't know what you want or want with this meaningless conversation. ”

“You're stabbing me where it hurts. ”

The blade smiles. I lost my grip.

“I wanted to know about you. Sweetheart, you are a disciple of the Crown Princess and a nobleman. I'm trying to stop the apocalypse, but I'm feeling anxious that you might be the apocalypse. It is decided. The old man will not kill you here. I don't know what the elderly man's actions will do. ”

Sungmin stared at the blade without answering. The old man continued to speak with the full gaze of Lee Sung-min's enemies.

“I know your existence is special. You may be the end of your contact with the spirits, but you may be the exception. It's... difficult... to attract. It's very difficult. Trying to figure out what's going on with non-human beings is very difficult. ”

“Just like you do what you want to do. ”

Lee Seong-min silenced her anger and opened her mouth.

“I'm just trying to do what I want to do. If you try to stop me, I will do everything in my power to escape your confinement. ”

“Can the old man really escape from trying to kill you? ”

“Don't make fun of me. ”

Lee Sung-min's golden eyes flashed.

Due to the uproar of emotion, the internal air and force shifted, and the current of purple was fractured from the shoulders of Lee.

The essence of the Black Spear acquired by inheriting the power of quadrupletism was naturally operated.

“I'm not sure I can kill you on this mountain. But I'm sure you won't die by your sword. Also, before you kill me, you may kill more than half of the pagan masters you don't know. ”

You smile at the harsh words of the sword.

“Are you threatening an old man? ”

“Wouldn't it be a good thing if one of you didn't die? ”

“Enough. The old man won't kill you. The old man's life is not foolish, but the life of an innocent progeny is worth more than the old man's. ”

“…… Why are the geographies of Shaolin and the Sworddragons of the Southern Palace here? ”

“Because I wanted to keep the possibilities. ”

The blade grins.

“I wanted to leave the apocalypse and give a path forward to a generation of possibilities. ”

“…… even if things were different? ”

“They were both talented and unfortunate enough to reason with it. Fireyoung knew him very well. That's why I left the two with the old man. ”

“If the Immortal Ambassador sent them, they may as well be here by the will of the Spirit. ”

“The same reason I didn't kill you. ”

The blade closed both eyes.

“I don't want to crush the possibilities. ”

The muttering silently depressed Lee Sung-min. I opened my eyes slightly when the sword line was closing.

“You've handled a thousand men without balls well. ”

“... because you've been given a lot. ”

Lee Seong-min mumbled and turned. I have nothing more to say to the sword. I wanted to send my regards to Geography and Namgongheewan, but I didn't think it was necessary.

Qadang!

When Seong-min tries to leave the conduit. The door that was closed opened wide.

Abel, who was running in, looked surprised at Lee Sung-min. I wasn't in a position to say hello. Abel hurries out.

“Something happened. ”

A sword line rises from behind your back.
