Childhood Friend of the Zenith Chapter 3

The one that rips through the air and appears and discharges monsters is called Magic Gate (魔境門).

How frightening it is to produce countless monsters that are more ferocious than beasts and lust only for slaughter.
At the time when the first magic gates were discovered, this must have been a disaster, and it must have been like a glimpse of the end of mankind.

Fortunately, within a short period of time, it was discovered that the monsters were weak against the bets of the warriors.
Thanks to this, the warriors joined forces and began to fend off the disaster.

As the years passed, the number of demons decreased, and people found stability, but unfortunately, they could not completely close the gates.

The magic gates were still being opened in various places in the midfield.
In the centuries to come, the representative job of the many swordsmen of the Segawa sect spread across the Central Plains was to manage this magical gate.

The same goes for the swordsmanship of the Gu family.
That is why Kuga is called the guardian of Shanxi.

The magic gate closes when a certain number of monsters are discharged.
The problem is that the demons that come out through the magic gate are not meek ones.

The ferocious monster not only turns the surroundings into a wasteland, but also eats up all living creatures it sees.
If there was even a village nearby, you wouldn’t dare to imagine the number of casualties.

Now, many years have passed since the magic gate appeared, and the education and system to close the gate has been put in place, so the risk is relatively low.

Once per season.

There are times when a door that is much larger than the normal magic gate opens.

The gate that emits bigger and stronger monsters than normal monsters was called Jinma Gyeongmun (眞魔境門).
The reason that Gaju, the center of the Gu family, moved directly was there.

The return ceremony of Gaju, who came to the end of the Bonmun Gate, which started at sunset, was quite modest.

It was the ironic rule of California that I didn’t want to because I thought I was doing what I should have done.

Of course, as it is a place where all the blood relatives in the current district gather, it was far from the basic simplicity, but… For me, it was a time when I did not know whether the rice went to the nose or the mouth.
While the quiet atmosphere continued, it was Gu Cheol-woon who spoke up for the first time.

He said, “I heard that there is an achievement of martial arts.”

It was uttered while eating. I didn’t mean to look at anyone.

Goo Hee-bi, the eldest of Gaju’s four children, was recognized for her high talent earlier and joined the Gu family’s sword squad and went to work. Her youngest child was currently absent from Sega.
‘Cause I wouldn’t be dead

There was only one left.

“Yes, I got a small realization and joined Samsung a few days ago.”

Gu Yeon-seo answered with a confident smile. It was a completely different expression from the look on my face before.

“You’re fast for your age, it’s good to see you. to go further.”
“thank you. father.”

While Gu Yeon-seo turned her head again, my eyes met.
His face was crumpled in an instant, as if he had seen something he couldn’t see from his bright smile.

‘It’s like looking at a real bug.’

Gu Yeon-seo is now fifteen. Gu’s inner-gong-sim method was particularly slow to achieve, but at that age, Samsung did a great job.
It was the part where Gu Yeon-seo’s talent and effort stood out.

It’s great, but because of the uncomfortable atmosphere, I felt like I was really embarrassed by my bloated stomach.
The inside pocket was full of digestive aids that I had brought during the day.

Guess I’ll have to eat it after I’m done.

The fortunate thing is that I can eat foods that I couldn’t eat well because I was rolling like crazy in my previous life.
I picked up a shiny dumpling from among the many dishes that broke my upper leg.

“Third.”

…even though I didn’t eat it.

“Yes.”

I put the dumplings that I had picked up in a more or less place.
Unlike when he praised Gu Yeon-seo earlier, Gu Cheol-woon was looking at me.

Is it simply a coincidence?

“I heard you went out on the streets.”
“Yes?”

that shit? Are you talking about the first day of returning?
I hesitated not knowing what I was talking about, but as if waiting for my answer, Gu Cheol-woon just looked at me without saying a word.

“Yeah, I’ve been out for a while.”

He didn’t seem to have done much of a problem, he replied lightly.
If it had to be a problem, it would be that I met Wi Seol-ah, but this would be my own problem.

“Well.”

What?

Afterwards, Gu Cheol-woon didn’t say much, but he seemed to have something to say. He didn’t bother to ask.
Why are you there?

I remember that I wasn’t the type to worry like that.
In the end, Gu Cheol-woon did not speak to me.

Shortly thereafter, the difficult mealtime was over.
I tried to eat something, but my appetite dropped by the subtle gaze.
Gu Cheol-woon left first, and Gu Yeon-seo stared at me for a long time and left.

I put down my chopsticks while thinking about whether I should try the rest of the dumplings again.
That’s how the family meal we’ve had in years has come to an end.

I didn’t want anything I ate to be on the inside, so I quickly sprinkled the digestive powder with warm water and drank it.
So you think it’s a little better?

Can I go and lie down today?

‘Ah… . I told you to come to my room later.’

I remembered the words that told me to come to the escort room during the day. What was it called for?

What have I been doing around this time? It was difficult to guess what it was because it wasn’t the first time I had been called to the house in an accident.
Just eat your heart out and go. It must be the shit I packed up anyway.

That moment when I got my heart ready.

“young master. He said, ‘You don’t have to come to the courthouse’.”

said the user.
In the end, I had no choice but to remain alone at the table, looking at the leftover dumplings with a confused expression.

what really… ?

**************

In my previous life, I longed for ‘freedom’.
I wanted to live a life that contained my will in every action, rather than a life in which I did not have any will.

At that time, even if I lived as a damned demon, I was definitely right that I chose to extend my life.
Had I known that my life would be so full of regrets, I would have taken my life without hesitation on the spot.

However, as a result of not doing so, I had no choice but to live a life that I could not even do as I wanted.

how much regret
And how much did you realize?

Those days when I foolishly tried to become a star without acknowledging my talent and making no effort.
The days when I tried to express my incompetence to others with arrogance and anger.

By the time you realize that nothing more than that hides the obscenity, you’ve come too far.
So, even more so, the opportunity that I had been waiting for so long came along, so I had to seize it.

I had to live a life that was definitely different from my previous life.
No, I wanted to live differently.

was that so The first thought I had after waking up after returning.

Can you kill the angel? it was

It was too vain to see by myself.

He killed all the three gods who dared to be in the sky.
How can I kill the monster that burned down two of the old file rooms alone?

In an instant it was the wind.
After all, Cheonma will die by Wiseol-ah in the future, and Makyo will also disappear shortly thereafter.
I just wanted to live a flat, slightly affluent life, just this much.

However, in the not-too-distant future, it will be unavoidable to eventually become involved with the magic religion.
Even if they say that he is a child who is half-sent because of stupidity, the bloodline of the Gu family is the bloodline of the Gu family.

Because they did that to me in the past.

Will he dare to avoid the hand of the magician that even the four generations could not stand upright?
Would it be okay if I gave up Sega and ran away? Maybe it’ll be fine if you hide in the mountains so far that the magicians can’t reach you… … .

“…you bastard, even after coming this far, he’s thinking of escaping.”

My teeth tremble at the thought that came to my mind.

I wanted to slap him on the cheek, but I couldn’t move because I was afraid my posture would change.
I tried to ignore the frightened lever and erased the floating thoughts from my mind.

How long has it been since you made up your mind to live an upright life in a different form from the past, and have you already started thinking about throwing it away?
He wrinkled his lips and bit his heart.

I don’t know how much time has passed, but it must have been midnight (23:00 to 1 o’clock).

In the center of the living room, cross your legs and take a deep breath. Exhale the air that fills the lungs again.
There was a slight bet on the breath he exhaled again.

‘It’s just a little bit of shit… .’

A small hole in the side of the danjeon that I finally found while searching for the inside of my body like a mouse.
My older sister joined Samsung at such a young age, so it can’t be compared more than this.

To put it bluntly, it means that you didn’t put as much effort into it.
There wasn’t much he could do right away with the strength that was barely catching on.

‘It’s a lot smaller than I expected, but there’s nothing I can’t do.’

There wasn’t much that could be done, but nothing at all.

The heart method passed down to the Gu family’s blood relatives, Guyeomhwaryungong (俱炎火輪功), is based on chemistry.
It is similar to sammaejinhwa (三昧神火), which uses its enormous inner strength to light a fire, but the essence is different.

Slowly and firmly, the deep method built up in the body will blossom when the time is right.
The red and fluttering bet of Guyeomhwaryungong, who succeeded in flowering through long training, resembles the shape of a blazing fire.

For example, Gu Cheol-woon’s nickname is Hohyeop, which is like a tiger moving violently with a flickering flame wrapped around his body.
Gu Yeon-seo, which will later be called Hong Yeom Sword, is also called so because the bet of Gu Yeom Hwa Ryun Gong surrounded by a sword resembles a flame.

I too, at least, the inner pore in my body was definitely a guyeomhwaryungong.
When you reach the four stars, even a small amount of red bet can be emitted, and when you reach the seven stars, you will be able to wear it all over your body.

Right now, I’m at least one kind.
Compared to Gu Yeon-seo and Goo Cheol-woon, who would have reached Chilseong if he couldn’t, he was not very good-looking.

The reason I’m fooling around in the moonlight like this is because I’m young.
It was to gather the energy that would have spread throughout the body before it was too late to rise to the right based on this.

He must have left behind all his greed for martial arts in his previous life.
It was necessary to develop strength in order to live.

He didn’t want to imagine the life he lived as a demon, but ironically, he was writing the realization of nothingness he had gained at that time.

the problem is.

“…if I try more, I’ll get to the real goal.”

He cherished and sparingly used his little inner skills to scan every nook and cranny of the blood vessels in his body, bringing the inner skills that were just before disappearing.
It wasn’t easy.

Although it is necessary to concentrate on writing, it was very difficult to use such a small amount of inner gong like this.
Since I had been using my senses delicately for a long time, my back was already wet with cold sweat.

It’s great to have come this far, but if you try to do something more with this kind of strength, it’s very easy to get caught up in the coin.

“…after.”

After the arduous schedule, he exhaled.
After he sighed, a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

It was a pity that I couldn’t do more, but it wasn’t that there was no harvest.

“not bad.”

The slightly increased internal air and the slight heat felt directly in the body were telling.
This was proof that Guyeomhwaryungong had ascended to the opposite sex.

It was because I had more energy than I expected because I had not been able to properly practice shimbeop.

“I wonder if it is true that it was thanks to incompetence.”

Time had passed since I first started practicing mindfulness, but thanks to the success in reaching the opposite sex, I felt refreshed.

“If we solve them one by one like this, anything will happen.”

I couldn’t wash off my sweaty body, so I finished washing my face and changed clothes and lay down on the bed.
I thought it wasn’t a bad start.

‘Let’s go like this… .’

One by one, but not slowly.
You will persevere and you will get through it eventually.

It was a life different from the previous life, only for that.

‘So that there is no needless influence on the future by fooling around uncontrollably.’

Let’s live quietly. until everything is resolved.
At least until the death of Chunma, I intend to keep my mouth shut and live.

At this time, I was determined to do so.

I did… .
