Chapter 1000
Chapter 1000
The myth of Gaecheon refers to the period before and after the Hojok became a mythical being.
Before Gaecheon (開天) and the Heavenly God descended, the Hojok of this period had not yet become the Jinjok.
Even so, even before becoming the Jinjok, they were still different from humans, so it seems difficult to see descendants.
‘Jinjok, no, do prospective Jinjok think differently from humans?’
However, the wedding between Jeokho and Ungnyeo took place after the Heavenly God descended, and the preparations seemed too thorough.
Yeom Jun-yeol hesitated for a moment before answering right away and opened his mouth.
“I don’t really know the secret.”
“But there must be something. They just weren’t born, right?”
From Yeom Jun-yeol’s perspective, when he came to his senses, he was already born, so he didn’t know how to explain it.
Jeokho was persistent.
The other raiders who had been wary of the visit of the Hojok now just watched the situation as if they were watching Geumchanwangchan make a fuss.
Yeom Junyeol was a little embarrassed, but since he had experience dealing with all sorts of nagging elders of the Yongjok and the crazy people of Class 0, he handled it well.
“I heard that your parents always got along well. I also heard that other people were considerate so that the two of you could spend a long time together.”
“Well, my lover and I are very close. However, instead of helping, all sorts of trash people gather around us and get in the way. I have to make them considerate.”
Around this time, the Hojok was teasing the Jeokho and the Woongjok was trying to separate the two.
But was consideration something you had to create yourself?
It seemed like Jeokho could receive consideration whenever he wanted.
Yeom Junyeol responded to Jeokho’s urging and bragged about his parents and family.
If Yongjok, whose eyes were wide open, had seen it, he would have been moved at first, asking what Jeokho was talking about to Ae.
“I understand that you need to spend more time with Jeongin. Then I will go meet my love, so goodbye. Okay.”
Jeokho, who had attained enlightenment, turned his back without any regrets and disappeared.
Whether Jeongin had missed him in the meantime, his hurried departure towards Ungnyeo looked like a red lightning bolt.
Although he didn’t say a word of thanks, he was grateful that the crazy tiger that Hojok had released had quietly disappeared.
“I... ... Jinjok has finally left.”
Dokgo Mi-ro swallowed his words and barely finished the sentence.
He seemed to have been going to use modifiers like strange, crazy, and crazy, but it seemed that the King held himself back because he thought he was an idol trainee.@@@@
I wondered how Jeokho would react if he found out that he was the father of the homeroom teacher in the next class.
‘But what I should be curious about now is something else.’
Jeokho’s love ended with him being tied up in a red frame.
This simulation was a perfect opportunity to find out what happened during that process.
‘But it’s hard to find out about Jeokho and Ungnyeo right now. If I’m not careful, I could turn both Hojok and Ungjok into enemies. I also have to clear the other world simulator.’
I thought of a way to safely complete this match and ask Hwang Jiho to activate the other world simulator again to investigate, but that seemed difficult.
The reason the relic-type other world simulator could implement such an old land’s memory was because of fate and intellect.
I don’t know about intellect, but I can’t control fate with my own power, so I didn’t know when this opportunity would come.
And that wasn’t the only problem.
“Let’s set a night watch. Seunghyun, who worked hard using insight skills during the day, get some rest.”
While Yeom Jun-yeol explained the order of night watch considering the condition of the raiders, a corner of my head felt cold.
The place prepared by the clan had no countermeasures for the supernatural forces like the Eun Gwang-go dormitory or the tiger mansion.
If I fall asleep now, other raiders might be affected by the nightmare.
Especially Yeom Jun-yeol, who was a descendant, might have his true name swallowed by the nightmare.
‘This otherworldly attack will be long. How long can I endure without falling asleep?’
Thinking of Maeng Hyo-don, who suffered from nightmares, I thought I could endure it.
However, if I forcibly endured without falling asleep, my supernatural forces or stamina would decrease and I would become a burden in battle, so I didn’t know if it would be okay.
“Hey, Vice-Chief. What are you doing without sleeping?”
When I was lying down with my eyes closed in case I fell asleep, Dokgo Mi-ro spoke to me in a small voice.
Dokgo Mi-ro was still armed.
It was still a long way to go until it was Dokgo Mi-ro’s turn to be on night watch, but it seems he didn’t think well from the beginning.
“If you can’t sleep, let’s go scout together.”
“At this hour?”
“I have really good night vision. And the reason I was chosen as a raider in the first place was to play the role of a scout.”
"If there's a battle, I'll take charge of the front line."
The tyrant seemed to be filled with the desire to prove his skills.
It was good that Dokgo Mi-ro was full of enthusiasm, but he wanted to avoid battle if possible.
"The enemy might just be making noise to lure someone out. In that case, even if we win the battle, it won't mean much, so let's avoid it."
"I know. But still, prepare to fight."
The sound was heard from the foot of Cheoniksan Mountain.
Although it was part of Cheoniksan Mountain, it was quite far from the center of the sacred territory, so it didn't seem like the clan was watching from here.
The only sign was someone at the center of the sound.
The closer we got to the sound of the song, the thicker the bushes became, preventing the moonlight from penetrating, making visibility poor.
“The same verse is being repeated. It seems like they’re repeating the same song multiple times.”
Dokgo Mi-ro had memorized the song and was recording it on his device after listening to it.
Kwon Rena was also good at listening to Kwon Je-in’s performance once and was able to copy the sheet music, and Dokgo Mi-ro seemed to be no different.
Rustle.
We approached without making any noise, but at some point the song suddenly stopped.
It was possible that the other side’s detection ability was higher than expected, so they noticed our presence, but it was also possible that they just finished what they had to do and disappeared.
When we arrived at our destination, there was no one there.
“If I had known this would happen, I should have come a little faster.”
Dokgo Mi-ro clicked his tongue and regretted it, but it was useless.
It wasn’t.
It was covered with grass so it wasn’t visible, but something was carved on the ground.
I felt a faint trace of power from the pattern drawn on the ground.
I said while taking a picture of the pattern with my device.
“This is a symbol of a shaman who received the power of the gods.”
“Were there shamans on the noble side?”
“There must have been. There aren’t many, but there are still records.”
It’s hardly mentioned in the curriculum covering the Gaecheon myth, but it was certain that there were.
There aren’t many records, so opinions differ on whether shamans existed, but since the tigers that lived at that time said there were shamans, it’s not wrong.
Then was that a song sung by a shaman just now?
‘But wouldn’t it be hard for a shaman to be out at this hour? A shaman wouldn’t have much fighting power, so the nobles wouldn’t allow her to go out.’
Then if there wasn’t a shaman, I couldn’t know what there was.
Some time had passed since then, but there had been no progress in the search.
The situation of the Chinese and Japanese teams had not yet been determined, and there had been no attack by the newcomers or assassination of the Ung tribe leader.
In the meantime, the sky had gradually become darker.
“The evil darkness was about to fall, but nothing had happened.”
“Could it be that the attack and assassination occurred at the same time as the darkness?”
“There must have been some time difference... ... .”
The atmosphere was dark as we exchanged opinions.
This must have been the first time they had experienced such a long otherworldly conquest, and they seemed exhausted because there was no clue to the conquest.
After organizing my thoughts, I opened my mouth with difficulty.
“There are two possibilities that come to mind right away. The first is that the Chinese and Japanese teams were involved. They may be fighting in the wrong direction due to their lack of knowledge about the Gaecheon myth.”
“That’s possible, but the story of Baekho cutting through the darkness is very famous. Both teams must have studied the attack on the key figures of the clan. Even if they didn’t study, they must have read the Korean myths that they had saved on their devices in advance.”
Park Seung-hyun’s rebuttal made sense.
I also thought that was right.
The second possibility was much better than being true, but it didn’t seem likely.
“I think so too. The second possibility is probably closer to the truth.”
“What possibility?”
Yeom Jun-yeol asked, even though he must have already guessed halfway.
Yeom Jun-yeol also seemed reluctant to believe that this possibility was true.
“If the boss enemy prevented the assassination and distorted the memories of the land.”
If my thoughts were true, then the target was set.
We must find and eliminate someone who is trying to protect the newcomer and the leader of the Ung clan.
