Pieces (2)
What the hell is he talking about?
I couldnt understand.
What did he even mean when he said that the Blood Demon is dreaming of resurrection?
Sois the Blood Demon alive or not?
I didnt know what kind of an individual the Blood Demon was nor did I know his martial level, but as far as I knew, it was impossible for a human to live hundreds of years even if they had reached an extremely high martial realm.
It was possible for one to become young again, but still there was a limit to that.
Also by looking at the fact that so many martial masters chose to keep their elderly appearance, it seemed that choosing to regain your youth probably makes you lose more than you gain.
This made even more sense as the process of changing ones appearance to a younger one, didnt necessarily mean that they would live longer.
And more than anything,
I didnt know anything about the Blood Demon.
That was the biggest problem.
I had never heard about the Blood Demon in my past life.
And judging by how he said the word resurrection, that would mean that the Blood Demon wasnt alive right now.
I was basically forced to learn about the Blood Disaster that had happened generations ago because of how big of an incident it was, but I never once heard anything about the Blood Demon resurrecting in the future.
So does that mean even if it had dreamt of resurrection, its something that will happen much later in the future?
Then is that something I dont have to care about?
[Resurrection]
Elder Shins voice trembled from shock.
[How? I heard its breath stop, so how can it even think about resurrecting?]
It was contradictory.
The Light of Might said that the Blood Demon had stopped breathing at their last battle, but now hes saying that it was dreaming of resurrection.
[Shincheol.]
The Light of Might, Cheolyoung, spoke.
[The Blood Demon wasnt something that could be killed.]
[What?]
[Although you may not remember because you have lost your memories.]
[Cheolyoung, will you really continue to say incomprehensible things?]
My dantian suddenly flinched, it felt like something huge was moving inside my body.
This was Elder Shins existence.
And just by feeling the presence that moved along with Elder Shins emotions, I was truly able to know how strong Elder Shin was.
So Id really prefer it if you go easy on my body.
Thanks to him, I felt like I was going to die trying to endure it.
I was feeling glad that Elder Shin had come back, but this was rather hard to endure.
Ignoring Elder Shins frustration, Cheolyoung continued.
[My response to you will remain the same, Shincheol.]ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels
[Cheolyoung!]
[I have many things I want to say, but Im unable to do so.]
[]
Grrr.
A dragon let out a breath inside of my dantian.
I assumed that meant he was about to explode any moment now.
In the midst of trying to calm down the energy inside me with my Qi, I was able to realize that Elder Shin had been keeping the Taoist Qi and other energies inside of me, in control for this whole time.
I might be a little thankful for that.
At first, I had thought that it was just him paying rent for living inside my body, but I didnt understand how hard it was, so he deserved my gratitude.
[You are not able to tell me anything, you say huh? Are you being serious right now!]
The fishs movement slowly weakened.
His whiskers lost strength and his scales seemed to have lost its colors a bit.
No elegance could be felt from it, compared to the first time I had seen the fish.
[Shincheol.]
[Speak.]
[This is the decision we made.]
[We? Did you just say we?]
[Yes, we.]
Judging by Cheolyoungs words,
I would assume that we meant the Five Masters.
The masters that protected the world by stopping the Blood Demon.
[Its something you had also agreed upon.]
Elder Shin was stunned for a moment Cheolyoungs words.
[I agreed to it, you say?]
[You did. This was even something you were more adamant about than the others.]
Elder Shin, after a brief moment of silence, spoke with a faint voice.
[I I dont remember anything.]
[Yes, which is more so the reason why I cant say anything.]
Cheolyoung didnt press on Elder Shin any further after hearing his response.
However, he asked something different.
And that question was aimed towards me.
[Child.]
Huh? Yes.
I was surprised because he had suddenly called me.
[I apologize. I thought you were that old idiot just by seeing your martial realm.]
The apology felt quite late, but I nodded anyway.
No problem. It was completely understandable.
I had spoken informally to Cheolyoung earlier, but I now had to show respect.
[Im thankful that you say that, but child, if Im not mistaken, you seem to be used to this kind of situation.]
The fact that everything around me had stopped, and the fact that a fish was speaking.
And even the fact that the fish was the great hero of Shaolin, the Light of Might.
[Child, are you Shincheols student?]
I couldnt easily answer Cheolyoungs question.
It was really hard for me to say that I wasnt.
There were definitely many things I had learnt from Elder Shin and those were things that I couldnt have easily gotten without him.
However, it felt a bit lacking for me to be called his student just because of that.
[Stop talking nonsense Cheolyoung.]
So Elder Shin responded in my place.
[I dont take any students. Thats the promise I made.]
[Your dogshit stubbornness remained the same as ever, even after death huh.]
[Dogshit!! Do you think that youre any different?]
[Everyone under the name of Shaolin, are my children.]
[You speak as if I have turned against Mount Hua or something.]
Why are these two old men fighting all of sudden?
Just earlier, they were talking about a heavy topic, but now they are fighting as if they were children.
[Anyway.]
[What do you mean anyway you baldhead.]
[It seems like this childs talent has reached the skys limit. Hmm It doesnt seem like you went through the process of changing your age, but for a child to overcome the wall at such a young age. This is just like]
Cheolyoung dimmed his words at the end.
I was just about to get curious about what he was going to say too.
[Were you going to say that hes just like Il-Cheon?]
Elder Shin spoke in the place of Cheolyoung.
Cheolyoung then let out a bitter laughter after hearing him.
[You really had to fill in the blanks when I was just trying to pretend that I never said a thing.]
[Its obvious since the only one that could be compared to him, is that bastard.]
The Iron Fist had that great of a talent?
I wasnt trying to say that I was great, because it was a special case for me to be this way.
But for someone to reach the level I was at, at the same age was impossible unless they also went through a regression like I did.
Unless its someone like the Dragon Warrior.
He too, was a special case, one different from mine.
As I was having miscellaneous thoughts
-You dont need to think too hard about it. Its obvious that he is mistaken.
I suddenly heard Elder Shins voice.
However, it somehow felt a bit different.
Almost as if his voice sounds a little different?
-That old bastard cant hear us right now.
As I became confused as to what was going on, Elder Shin explained it to me.
You knew how to do something like this?
-Well, its not that hard.
It does sound hard, though.
But, what did you mean by that hes mistaken?
-Well, how would he not be, when the situation is so different from what it is supposed to look like.
What?
My eyes widened at Elder Shins words.
What did you just say?
I couldnt help but ask him again.
Because it made no sense at all.
It was something that I couldnt believe,
But Elder Shin still gave me the same response.
-That Il-Cheon bastard, he, like you, had traveled through time.
