Absolute Regression

Episode 119 Enjoy, Ian!

“Can you feel those gazes?”

Ian and I were at the guesthouse. People were sitting around her. The seats on the other side were empty, but people were sitting on our side.

Everyone quietly shifted their seats to see her face from a little closer.

I whispered to Ian.

“The guy on the left looked at you six times, and the guy on the right pretended not to look and looked at you seven times. The guy next to him is openly losing his mind. Oh stop looking! Take the saucer next to you! Oh my. “It must hurt.”

At that time, a customer came in. The man who was looking around to see where to sit opened his eyes wide and looked at Ian. He walked towards her as if he were fascinated and fell over the table.

No one paid any attention to him, and the man who fell also jumped up. Then I sat down in a place where I could see Ian clearly. The man sitting next to him didn’t realize that his glass was overflowing as he was pouring his drink.

“How do you feel?”

“Is it good?”

“You like it? “Aren’t you embarrassed?”

“You may have made me sit here without a mask on to make fun of me because I was embarrassed, but the operation failed. “I love it so much.”

“It’s unexpected?”

“Did I tell you that I have several hidden tails? “You can act as embarrassed as you want, but you can also just enjoy the stares.”

Ian smiled slightly at the onlookers. Exclamations erupted here and there.

she whispered.

“And I saw the guy on the left eight times, not six.”

I like Ian like this. She is flexible. I know how to show my intelligence and I also know how to hide it.

She has always lived proudly even though she suffered from the side effects of full-body petrification throughout her life. There are scars and there is also pride.

“Well, since we’ve had enough in this guesthouse, let’s go buy some cotton yarn.”

“Cotton yarn?”

“You can’t go around wearing a mask, right? “Wear that mask whenever you need it, and wear cotton thread on regular days.”

“I tried to do that too. “The money is tight.”

“Buy it with your own money!”

“Ang, please buy it!”

A few people fell down when she said, and some people grabbed their bags when she said, “Please buy me something.”

As she and I got up, disappointment and sighing swept through us. Eyes of envy and jealousy flew towards me. Among them, there was also a look of reprimand for buying cotton yarn.

I left the guesthouse with her and walked together. A white mask hung from her waist.

“In the future, there will be people who blatantly covet your beauty. There must be all kinds of guys. There will be people who try to get it through force, and there will also be people who try to get it through drugs. “There will be all kinds of people.”

I admit it. Whether it was my intention or unconsciousness, I postponed her sin poison purification technique for this reason. Because I don’t like worrying.

But that doesn’t mean I’m not worried about her now that I’ve given her the poison purification technique. I will let go of my worries in another way.

“You must have the strength to protect yourself from such things. “I plan to raise you with the skills to face off against the Mazons.”

I was already thinking about that when I performed the poison purification technique on her.

Ian was not shy for no reason. Because I was taught the Bicheon Sword Technique, not just any other martial art, but also had the natural goal of surpassing the Majon.

“I will try harder so as not to cause you worry.”

“Don’t do it anymore. Even now, there is a lot of effort.”

She smiled, and the heart of the old bachelor clerk at the fruit shop who was mesmerized only fluttered.

I stopped at a fabric store and bought her a bamboo rib with cotton thread. It had the advantage of being able to completely cover her face, but when she tried using bamboo lipstick, she rejected it.

“This is so uncomfortable. First of all, the field of view is too narrow, so I think it would be very vulnerable to surprise attack. “I need to become a more expert to be able to use it.”

“Then let’s just buy cotton yarn first.”

I bought him a cotton thread that covers under his eyes like a mask.

The cotton thread alone couldn’t hide her beauty, but it was still a little better.

“If I make a tattoo later, it will make the mask really cool.”

When I thought of her wearing a mask with a unique ghost pattern, it seemed really mysterious and cool. I don’t think Cheongmyeon would be able to bear it if he saw that, right?

She stopped wherever she could see her reflection.

I haven’t expressed it all, but how good do you feel right now?

Enjoy, Ian!

“Where are we going now?”

“Would you like to climb a mountain?”

“Sanyo?”

“Now that I feel lighter, let’s go climbing a mountain.” Now run.”

After running for a long time to Gyeonggong, we arrived at the foot of a strangely shaped cliff.

“Tread where I step!”

She couldn’t say a single word as she followed me up the cliff. This was her first time climbing such a steep cliff.

Only when she reached the top did she breathe a sigh of relief.

“Honestly, I was really scared coming up.”

Although her swordsmanship was at a high level, Gyeonggong’s skills did not reach that level.

“If you fall, you’ll die, right?”

“You have to die to become a master. “With your swordsmanship skills, you shouldn’t die.”

“What should I do if I fall?”

“I need to stay alert and somehow slow down my falling speed.”

Of course, in my case, I would use my strength and get off lightly when I almost reached the bottom, but with Ian’s skills, it would be impossible. Although it will consume a lot of internal energy, you must fall from above while reducing your speed as much as possible.

“As you know, it is difficult to survive just by being good at swordsmanship. “You have to be good at guard, have a lot of courage, have good judgment, and you have to be good at seeing people.”

“ah! “It was warm inside the greenhouse.”

She was joking that she was comfortable with me and under the protection of our school, but I don’t think so.

She has never been in a greenhouse. Because of the emotional wounds caused by the side effects of martial arts, I couldn’t sleep well even though he was escorting me. Where can you find a greenhouse that is so difficult? After I returned, she couldn’t sleep well even though she was training.

“Is it spring outside the greenhouse? “Is it winter?”

“It’s never been spring in Gangho.”

“Like this scary cliff.”

She looked down the cliff. I whispered in her ear.

“Do you remember what I said earlier? “What to do when you fall.”

“Of course. “Be alert and slow down your falling speed.”

“That’s it then.”

The next moment I pushed her down the cliff.

“Aaaahhh!”

She fell with a desperate scream.

I jumped down after her.

I thought he was going to fall in a mess, but Ian was struggling, trying to somehow maintain his balance and slow down.

However, because I had no experience yet, I was using too much strength in my body and was wasting my energy needlessly.

I instantly increased my speed and hugged her in the air.

Only then did Ian, who was held by me, feel relieved.

“Hang on to me.”

“yes.”

And I showed her how to slow down by using her feet and arms. Even though he was holding her, his speed suddenly slowed down.

Ian clung to me and watched without missing a single movement.

As I fell, I flew towards the cliff. There was a small cave in the middle of the cliff.

As soon as he got down there, Ian finally shouted.

“I really thought I was going to die!”

“lie. “You believed I would save you, right?”

“Of course, but. But I was really surprised. “I fell faster than I expected, so I lost my balance.”

“If you keep falling, you will get used to it and gradually regain your balance.”

“yes. “I remember well what you did.”

“Then that’s it.”

“But I didn’t know there was a cave in a place like this.”

“Remember the location and avoid here if you are chased out of this area.”

“How did you know about this place?”

“Is this cave the only thing I know?”

“sure. So I’m not going to ask anymore. But why did you come here?”

“From now on, I will conquer your Im Dok Yang line.”

At first, she just blinked because she said it without even setting the mood to say something important. Then, my eyes gradually widened and I was surprised, but the final size of this surprise was bigger than when I was told that I would perform a poison purification technique. Rather, it was something I had already predicted, but it was something I had never even thought of right now.

Im Dok-yangmaek Tatong.

Although it is something that must be done to become a true expert, it is the greatest skill that only a very small number of martial artists can experience.

This process was very dangerous and difficult, so there were more than one person who died trying to rashly pursue the Im Dok Yang line. In addition, there were cases where the person performing the stroke also died from regurgitation of energy and blood.

There is no need to go far into examples. We, who are the blood relatives of the Heavenly Demon, passed the Imdogyang lineage when we were young, and I still vividly remember how much my older brother scared me when I was doing it. My brother may have hoped that I would fall into Juhwa Ilma because I couldn’t overcome my fear, but I succeeded in successfully defeating Im Dok Yang Mac.

In any case, the Tatong of Imdok Yangmaek should never be done or accepted carelessly. That is why the veteran members of the prestigious clan take risks and do it only for the orthodox successors of the clan.

“Are you really trying to beat me to the Im Dok Yang vein?”

“huh.”

“Why on earth are you so nice to me… Oh, that’s why you told me not to ask. “It’s a question we’ll have to ask again soon.”

When I finished the poison purification technique, I told her not to ask questions.

“It’s a gift. A gift to celebrate your new life.”

Ian couldn’t say anything.

Tears welled up in her eyes again.

“I’m a person who hates crying, but you keep making me cry.”

“It’s nothing to cry about.”

“That’s right, I’m happy. “I’m so happy that I feel like I’m flying.”

“Now then, shall we begin? “I’ll leave you with the last word in case anything goes wrong.”

“Please tell this to our master. “I’m sorry for not being able to serve you until the end.”

“I will scold you, master. “Because I’m monopolizing you too much.”

“It won’t be easy to scold you. “You’re getting stronger every day.”

I ended up laughing at her words.

“Now, let’s start with breakfast.”

She sat cross-legged and practiced meditation. When I reached the top of my head, I injected powerful energy into her back.

I slowly moved my inner energy along her blood vessels.

“You don’t have to answer me from now on. No matter what happens, you must not stop screaming or crying. “You can’t lose your mind.”

While she was calming down and controlling her mind, the speed of my internal power moving along my blood vessels became faster and faster.

The Immaek starts from the lips, goes down the chest and abdomen, and reaches the perineum acupoint, and the dokmaek starts from the periem acupoint, goes up along the tailbone and spine, passes through the Baekhoehyeol, and continues to the lips. At this time, the most important moment is when the Baekhoehyeol is pierced, but the moment the Baekhoehyeol located on the top of the head goes wrong, you become a person or lose your life.

I knew very well that it was best to get it done in an instant rather than taking time. My pure and deep inner energy boldly pushed her blood vessels.

There was nothing to worry about. It was a stroke made by me, not by anyone else.

Seungjang Yeomcheon Seongi Okdang Jungwan… He literally pierced the blood vessels with such force. As if all kinds of trash were washed away by heavy rain, the waste that was blocking the blood vessels began to break through.

Ian had a hard time with unfamiliar pain, but she was accustomed to enduring pain.

I was so bold that I wondered if I could penetrate this deep. If you hesitate, accidents will happen. If it doesn’t break through the first time, turn around and come back again and again. Then we hit it hard.

Yanggwan Yeongdo Shinju Amun Noeho Hujeong. In this way, he penetrated all the other blood vessels and reached an important milestone.

‘Trust me Ian.’

‘I believe it.’

‘Now!’

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa! Boom!

Even the most difficult Baekhoehyeol was pierced, and all the remaining blood vessels were pierced, and her Imdokyang vein was penetrated.

A smile was on Ian’s lips as he slowly fell to the side.

‘Well done Ian.’

Ian woke up after sleeping for half a day.

“young master? “What happened?”

“Now, try a lucky breakfast.”

Ian sat down with a nervous expression and started eating breakfast. After completing one week, her expression brightened.

“It’s different. It’s completely different from before. “My energy has become much more pure, and my energy moves without hesitation.”

“Congratulations Ian.”

I used my inner strength to stop Ian from standing up and bowing to me.

“I told you this before, right? “I did it to pamper you, so there’s no need to be thankful.”

“How much are you going to pamper me? “I am so thankful that I can say that I have helped Moorim become one.”

“Let’s start with Moorim Iltong after eating. “Are you hungry?”

“To the point where I went to search through the Murimmaeng kitchen.”

She shouted as she stood in front of the cave.

“I’ve beaten the Im Dok-yang vein… ahhh!”

I pushed Ian again from behind. Seeing her fall with less trouble than before, I jumped off the cliff too.

After one hour, Ian and I ate again at a guesthouse on the street.

We ordered all kinds of delicious things and ate them together. I didn’t care what other guests looked like.

“It is very delicious.”

“Let’s go around and eat all the famous dishes that Jungwon is famous for.”

“And what if I get fat again?”

“Even if you wanted to, you wouldn’t be able to. “If I go back to the main school, I will have to go through training hell until I achieve greatness in the Bicheon Sword Technique.”

“Oh, let’s never go back!”

Even though she was saying something she had no intention of saying, she was so happy at this moment.

At that time, a young man walked towards us, weaving his way through the crowd.

He looked quite tall and was wearing expensive and flashy clothes, and behind him were four soldiers who appeared to be escort soldiers.

Ian whispered as if reciting a spell.

“Don’t come, don’t come. “Let’s just eat comfortably.”

Looking at her like that, I smiled.

These are things you will experience countless times in the future. Now how do you deal with it?

The man came in front of Ian and spoke politely with a confident face.

“So, may I treat you to a drink?”

Okay, Ian. This is the start.
