Surviving the Romance Fantasy

Therefore, I had no choice but to make a choice with as little risk as possible.

Yes. In order to get Cheong Jin-myeong out of here alive, it was necessary to persuade the two people.

‘Damn… I didn’t know it would end up like this…’

– Get it!

Seol Taepyeong eventually knelt down.

The spirit of putting both arms on the knees, lowering the head, and keeping the back straight was worthy of being called a man of the man.

“Seoul, unmanned…?”

“Taepyeong…?”

“What you two said is so right! However… the man Seol Tae-pyeong… I decided to trust a man named Cheong Jin-myeong…!”

Here, when he suddenly pushed with his spirit, not only the two people but even Cheong Jin-myeong couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

When on earth did you push it that far just because you saw it? Cheong Jin-myeong was so dumbfounded that he could not close his mouth again.

“As I inherited the eye for people from the late Baek Seon, I am confident that Cheong Jin-myeong will choose the right answer at the crossroads of important choices!”

“Well, Taepyeong, how do you know that?!”

“eye! You can tell between men by looking in their eyes! Those clear and bright eyes truly resemble those of Queen Po and Queen Jin!”

The two women, as well as Cheong Jin-myeong, were so dumbfounded that they could only gape.

“Of course, I know the seriousness of the matter… If things go wrong, Seol Taepyeong will sacrifice his life. “I will definitely fulfill that responsibility.”

“Lord, I’m not telling you to die. However, we don’t know what will happen, so how can we release that person?”

“Please trust that Seol Taepyeong here just once…!”

However, there are some things that can be done with just spirit and some that cannot.

“No matter how earnestly you ask for it, Taepyeong…!”

“If you would just turn a blind eye to this one time… this man, Seol Tae-pyeong…! I will do anything! You could say that it has captured my weakness! “I will do anything if you ask me to, so can you please trust my judgment?!”

“No, you suddenly said that…!”

When Seol Taiping shouted that, the two crown princes were momentarily speechless.

‘…anything?’

I will do anything.

If you have the upright character of Seol Tae-pyeong, you can do anything you would never do, as long as it is done once.

At Seol Tae-pyeong’s suggestion that made them unleash their infinite imagination… the two of them couldn’t help but flinch for a moment and tremble at the ends of their sleeves.

In the first place… the 5th rank Tongseokjang is in a position where he has to listen to whatever the Crown Princess gives him a rough order…!

But even that has its limits…! It is clear that there is a royal law and an individual’s ethical upper limit…!

However, if you said anything with your own mouth…

If you say that you can move Seoltaepyeong according to your will, regardless of the rules of the court… regardless of goodness…!

“I get it.”

“Mistress Jin. “Well, think about it before you answer!”

Just like that, Black Moon Captain Cheong Jin-myeong overcomes the crisis.

‘Why is that person called Tongseokjang… why…? What are you predicting…?’

He owed his life to Seol Taepyeong.

Even though it happened right before my eyes, I couldn’t believe it.

“Seol maid. “I’m hungry… I’m so hungry…”

In this way, the day of the great ruler dawns.

Baekdosa Ancheon, who was imprisoned in Taeokcheong, was eating rice balls from Seolran.

When you look at the pure white hair flowing in abundance, it looks like a large dog is eating food.

“Ugh…”

Seolran sat in front of him with her chin resting in deep agony. My only younger brother had been missing for several days, so I couldn’t sleep at night and couldn’t even eat at mealtimes.

“It’s a bit odd for me to say this because you seem so full of worry and worry, but…”

“yes…? Master Daejeon Ahn, why do you wish for so many things…”

“No, but please listen to me just once… Something big is going to happen in the palace right now, so I must get out of this prison… Please help me one more time… I saw you during the Heavenly Dragon Festival. “Please, even out of respect for the past…”

“…”

Seolran took a deep breath and looked at Ancheon’s condition.

He was once a member of the Black Moon Team but then left, and he often came up with strange insights as to whether he possessed some kind of magical power.

“Tongseokjang Seoltaepyeong.”

A familiar name came out of his mouth.

“Tae, Taepyeong?! It’s my younger brother’s name. “He has gone missing recently…!”

Seolran quickly grabbed the bars and stuck out her face.

Ancheon, who was getting rice paste all over his mouth, sighed in vain and answered.

“He is a person who will achieve great things in the future, but if I don’t act now, he may die. From the looks of it, he seems to have experienced death several times…”

“…yes? W-what are you talking about, Master Ahn?!”

“Yuegui ‘Yaoran (謠爛)’.”

Ilgwi, Wolgwi, Baekgwi.

Ghosts like the hands and feet of a reverse demon who tried to kill them by rewinding time again and again. They were a type of monster that could not be included anywhere, so they were classified as special monsters.

“That beautiful Wolgwi… has sneaked into Cheongdo Palace.”

Was the belief carried through (4)

“Wolgwi Yoran is a ghost that uses the art of deception, and it lives in people’s hearts and manipulates them as if they were its own limbs. It even lives in people’s heads and acts as if it is that person.”

“R-really…? “I always thought that ghosts were strange-looking monsters…”

“These ghosts are called special ghosts, and among them, they are the most troublesome to deal with.”

Seolran first became suspicious after hearing what Baekdosa Ancheon said.

This author, Ancheon, seemed to know a lot, but he always seemed lost somewhere, so it was really difficult to trust him.

It was amazing to see that he looked exactly the same as when we met at the Heavenly Dragon Festival several years ago. Is it true that you are getting older?

“How does Taoist Ahn know that Yuegui will target our Taepyeong…?”

“Listen carefully. Seol’s maid. “This Cheongdo Palace we are in is not the place we know.” “…Yes?”

“After the Heavenly Dragon’s energy faded, the flow of the world changed a lot.”

Ancheon, who was stuffing the food that Seolran had brought her, spoke without even wiping the crumbs from the corners of her mouth.

“If you repeat the flow several times, you will be able to catch the feeling of déjà vu that comes up from time to time. Usually, the closer you are to the power of the Heavenly Dragon, and the more keen you are on your sense of goodness and energy, the sooner you will realize it. Of course, even that would be difficult at a normal level.”

“Well, what do you mean? Master Ahn. “I don’t understand at all.”

Baekdosa Ancheon shook his head, his gray hair flowing, and looked at the sky outside the bars.

With his sharp jawline and masculine physique, he was truly a handsome man. However, despite his dependable appearance, his actions were so unusual that there were many times when I wondered if this person could really be called a guru.

“It’s still just a guess, but I can’t shake the feeling that some gigantic force is twisting the flow and axis of the world. So, I came to Cheongdo Palace, the source of the power of the Heavenly Dragon, to confirm the truth.”

“…So you were caught while secretly dating and are imprisoned in Taeokcheong?”

“…Great intentions and the ability to carry them out are not completely separate. “I didn’t want to be caught like this either.”

“No, we can talk about such broad and grandiose things later… In any case, that special and strange thing called Wolgwi is targeting Taepyeong.”

Seolran was banging on the bars and making a fuss.

My only blood relative had a chronic disease that put his life in danger whenever he got the chance, and because of that, it became a daily routine for him to have trouble sleeping at night.

After gaining some strength, I started to worry less, because the situation in which the ignorantly strong Seol Taepyeong was attacked and killed by someone was not portrayed well.

However, it’s been a while since I started having trouble sleeping at night again due to the news that I was kidnapped by Black Moon.

Worrying about Tae-pyeong whether he wakes up or not has started to interfere with my daily life, and I even thought about asking Commissioner Tae-ok-cheong to go outside the palace to look for Tae-pyeong sooner or later.

In the meantime, hearing such news from Taoist Ahn, who possessed magical powers, made me feel even more confused.

“I don’t know if Tongseokjang Seol Taepyeong himself knows, but I can feel that there is a huge hatred centered on him. “The energy is so powerful that it can sometimes be felt even outside the ecliptic, and all the famous Taoist monks of the Shen Mountain want to confirm its identity.”

“R-really…? Ha, but… the deceased Baekseon and Princess Cheondo didn’t seem to notice that kind of thing…”

“It has become stronger in recent years, so it may not have been considered a big deal at the time. But… recently, it’s becoming even stronger.”

Master Ahn tilted his head and spoke with a serious expression.

“It’s as if I have incurred the hatred of some great being.”

“Uh, a huge being…?”

“It’s a story about ghosts who feed on people’s fears… and the king of the ghosts who has ruled over them since the beginning.”

The scale of the story suddenly grew, making it difficult for Seolran to follow the flow.

Still, I tried my best to listen and focus on the voice of Baekdosa Ancheon. She was always a serious girl when it came to matters that involved the life of her younger brother, Seol Tae-pyeong.

“Right now, I haven’t even decided on a name for that ghost, but if you go to Seonsan and train for a long time, there are times when you can feel its energy sleeping under the Cheongdo Palace. “It is a lumpy and weak energy, so it would normally be difficult to catch.”

“R-really…?”

“Probably, the person who was a royal servant here before I came to Cheongdo Palace knew about this and managed it by attaching various amulets to the concubine.”

The late Baekseon Lee Cheol-un put a lot of effort into managing the Jinbeop in the Four Great Palaces to the extent that it seems strange.

There was a high possibility that he, too, was to some extent aware of some gigantic ghost sleeping beneath the ground of Cheonryongchae.

“…a reverse ghost.”

Seolran answered Ancheon’s words in a quiet voice.

“…”

“Taepyeong once said something like that in his sleep.”

“…If you said it yourself, it means a lot.”

Baekdosa Ancheon quietly closed his eyes.

The great spirit of hatred rising around Cheongdo Palace used to follow the movements of a man named Tongseokjang.

A ghost from the beginning who opposes the ghosts who cause chaos in the world.

If there is someone who can embrace such enormous hatred of evil, what is the reason?

This may be because the reversed return is a person who feels threatened.

“…What on earth is Taepyeong fighting?”

“…”

“I and Taepyeong have been almost inseparable since childhood. Master Ahn. “There were many hardships in Taepyeong’s life, but he did not live a life worthy of hostility from something so distant and great.”

Even though it may be miserable and miserable, I will live as a man.

That was what Tongseokjang Seol Taepyeong used to say.

“There may have been something that the Seol maid didn’t know.”

“…Or, what happened during my two years of suppressing demons in the North? It is said that he killed many ghosts, so is it worth avenging him…”

“I have no choice but to ask Daein Seol himself for the exact reason. “It seems that the Seol maid was hiding something out of fear that she might be in danger if she saw something she didn’t know about…”

“Taepyeong…! If you have a hard time, tell this sister everything…! really…!”

Seolran held back tears and just pushed the open bars.

Baekdosa Ancheon sighed heavily as he saw that, then quickly returned to the topic.

“Perhaps the Wolgui Yoran is a special spirit wielded by the reverse demon.”

“Special… I mean special…”

“Ilgui, Wolgui, Baekgui. There are only three special spirits whose names have been passed down among Taoists. And… if Yuegui Yoran has decided to kill Seol Daein, the problem becomes complicated.”

Ancheon organized the story as best as possible so that Seolran would not be confused.

“The Wolgwi Yoran lives on the person it wants to kill who cherishes it the most.”

“…”

“And, probably, the person that Grand Master Seol values most in this Cheongdo Palace is… Maid Seol, who is his one and only blood relative.”

A goosebump ran down Seolran’s back.

Of the three special ghosts controlled by the evil spirits, Wolgwi is said to be the most vicious.

If Wolgwi had decided to kill Seol Taepyeong, the first person he would possess would be Seolran.

“Master Ahn.”

Seolran spoke in a lower voice.

Baekdosa Ancheon, who was listening intently to the story through the bars, nodded.

“I still have the Jangrim Black Pearl that Taoist An gave me during the Heavenly Dragon Festival.”

“Did you still keep it…?”

“It was a treasure that was said to protect me from all kinds of enchantment, right? “As long as I hold this in my heart, no matter how much I try to make a fuss, you can’t lift a finger against me, right?”

“exactly. If so, I am truly fortunate.”

Seolran spoke with an anxious expression.

“If I keep that Jangrim Black Pearl well, I won’t be harmed by Wolgui… but then Wolgui will go to someone else, not me, right?”

“exactly.”

“So who should we turn to?”

“Perhaps… After the Seol maid, there is a high possibility that it will go to the person whom the Great Seol cherishes the most.”

…

Among the people at Cheongdo Palace, the person Seol Tae-pyeong considers most important is his maid Seol-ran.

However, if he can’t touch the maid Seol-ran… then who does Wolgui Yo-ran turn to?

*

‘The time has come to subdue Wolgui.’

Princess Ahyeon of Cheondo sat in Cheonokjeong and monologued.

The three special demons that gave him the most trouble before killing Yeokdeungwi. Ilgwi, Wolgwi, Baekgwi.

Among them, there is nothing better than this if you can get rid of Wolgwi quickly.

‘If you just keep an eye on Ha Deok-bi’s condition, nothing will get worse. All you have to do is carefully monitor the situation at the White Tiger Palace.’

Every time Yuegui Yaoran turned back time, the person he devoured in the palace changed.

Sometimes he clings to Queen In, and sometimes he clings to Queen Po. No matter who he was attached to, Seol Taepyeong somehow found out what was strange and successfully exterminated Wolgwi.

However, it was different when he caught up with Duckby Howell.

If Wolgui clings to Ha Deok-bi, who is good at scheming, he becomes a much more difficult opponent than the other two.

‘Okay… there are two purposes. Grab Wolgui and take out Cheong Jinmyeong.’

Princess Ahyeon was the one who laughed heartily in front of Seol Taepyeong…

When I sit alone in Cheonokjeong and gather my thoughts, I don’t even shed a single smile.

‘I hope Taepyeong never encounters Wolgwi… but that won’t be easy…’

As it was getting dark, the courtyard of Cheonryongchae was filled with only the sound of the waterfall falling.

There was something that Princess Ahyeon did not tell Seol Taepyeong.

When I look up at the sky in a dark yard, the terrible image of Wolgwi sometimes comes to mind.

A catastrophe so great that it threatens to devour even the Heavenly Dragon.

A monster that takes control of the ecliptic, corrupts humans into ghosts with its blood, and absorbs any power it finds.

He rewinded time again and again, trying again and again to kill the monster… but the movements he took were different each time, as if he wanted to seize even the power of the heavenly dragon.

Dozens of repetitions left a feeling of déjà vu even for the monster.

As a person with powerful energy continues to be influenced by the power of the Heavenly Dragon, one or two people appear who notice the strangeness of the repeated time…

The reverse demon noticed that Princess Ahyeon was sharpening the blade again and again to kill him.

Therefore, Yeokdeunggwi also developed and developed again to exhaust Princess Ahyeon’s power and kill her.

In order to somehow overturn even the flow of time and devour the ecliptic by twisting the neck of the Heavenly Dragon… I tried to break this stagnant point of time that was repeating itself forever.

Fearing that it was a monster that had swallowed up the entire ecliptic, it attempted to overcome the reversal of time by even wielding the power of the Heavenly Dragon.

The results of that effort are three special qualities.

Ilgwi, Wolgwi, Baekgwi.

Those three special spirits are many powerful figures that Yeokdeunggwi has encountered throughout his long life.

Among them, the people who had succeeded in being corrupted into ghosts were re-embodied using their own power.

From Noble mtl dot com

At first, they were insignificant ghosts… but as time was repeatedly reversed by the power of the Heavenly Dragon, the powers of those special ghosts became more special. He had no choice but to do so.

In the repeating timeline, the characters that Yeok-dung-gwi held in his hands also changed.

Princess Ahyeon still clearly remembered the time when she was suppressing the current Wolgui.

Burning Imperial Palace Garden.

A monster that killed the entire group of Blackwoldae that were running away and stood on the bloody path, twisting its body grotesquely.

Wolgui yoran.
