Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter

Episode 392: Bond of Friendship (1)

Two martial arts experts with different personalities were sitting in the shade of a tree, holding hands.

They were Namgung Cheolhu, the third prince of the Namgung family, and King Munjong, a representative master of the Sa sect.

The two were close together, but they turned their heads away as if they didn’t want to see each other.

“….”

Surprisingly, the two didn’t say a word to each other for half a day.

They are acting like they are trying to see who will win.

Who would have guessed that Hoeju would tie the wrists of two enemies?

But you can’t sit like this for ten days.

“…I have a place I need to go to for a while.”

The first to speak in silence was Namgung Cheolhu.

King Munjong responded indifferently without even looking at her.

“You said so. But I will be here.”

After he finished speaking, he looked away and did not move.

What kind of pun is this again? It probably means that they will not cooperate.

Namgung Cheolhu questioned, gently lifting his wrists that were tied together with a string.

“How can you move by yourself?”

“What do I know? “You have to figure that out yourself.”

We had no choice but to move together wherever we went.

If you were clumsy in untying the string or using a trick, the owner would have noticed.

Namgung Cheolhu asked, suppressing his boiling anger.

“Are you confident you won’t regret it?”

King Munjong snorted and responded as if he would never cooperate.

“What kind of regret is regret?”

“her. Are you going to come out like that? Anyway, I understand.”

A strong venom appeared in Namgung Cheolhu’s eyes.

The two sat cross-legged with their wrists touching each other and did not move.

It’s not about making fortune-telling.

Because we couldn’t trust each other, we couldn’t sleep comfortably.

The boring time continued to pass, and the two of them didn’t even move until the sunset.

Only when the moonlight shone brightly did King Munjong begin to clear his throat.

“Hmm! “Where is the place you said you wanted to visit earlier?”

“I didn’t say no. “Don’t mind other people’s business.”

After hesitating for a moment, Munjong spoke in a more subdued voice.

“Still, we are the heads of the same Cheonyuhoe, so I will yield once.”

Namgung Cheolhu glanced at King Munjong with a puzzled look.

No matter how much I thought about it, there was no way he would give in willingly.

When I looked closely, I saw that he was watching the moonlight and watching his appetite.

And from that look, I vaguely figured out the reason.

‘Now that I think about it, this guy was addicted to alcohol from his childhood. ‘It’s like that too.’

The saying that King Munjong was a lover was famous in Anhui Province.

Seeing the beautiful moonlight outdoors for a long time made me want to drink.

“You don’t have to give in. “Because I don’t need it.”

“Wow. The guy’s speed is really slow. “Are all political faction members like that?”

Namgung Cheolhu could not bear it anymore and narrowed his eyes.

“What did you just say!? How dare the despicable Safain…”

But King Munjong was not angry.

I just cut him off with the expression of an impatient puppy.

“Okay, just stand up quickly. “What will the Lord think if he sees us doing this?”

As he pulled the string tied around his wrist, Namgung Cheolhu had no choice but to stand up hesitantly.

“Huh!? Don’t pull. “If this breaks, it’s the end for both of us.”

“Then please quickly tell me the direction. “Where should I go?”

Namgung Cheolhu sighed with an absurd expression on his face.

“This is going to be crazy. “Are you really trying to give in because of Lord Hoe?”

“I didn’t say so. Instead, let’s stop by a guesthouse on the way. “You need to fill your stomach.”

“If you want to drink, just say so.”

After discovering what was going on, Munjong scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

“A drink as an accompaniment is okay, right? Instead, I will buy it. How do you feel?”

Namgung Cheol-hu thought for a moment and then answered indifferently.

“You said so.”

* * *

Cheonyuhoe’s government office, which boasted a magnificent appearance, was where the leaders were now gathered.

This was because it was a day to hold a meeting with an important agenda.

Yu Seol, who was sitting at the head of the table, looked around the audience and burst out laughing.

‘I knew I would do that.’

It was because of the sight of King Munjong and King Namgung sitting together on one side.

Five days later, they were still holding hands.

A few days ago, they were upset because they couldn’t catch each other, but now the atmosphere was quite different.

It was clear that both of their hatred for the other had abated to some extent.

At that time, Eunhwarin, who was next to me, whispered softly and asked.

“Is there anything fun happening?”

“No, Commander-in-Chief. “Let’s get started.”

She, who was standing still, cleared her throat and began to get to the point.

“Hmm! Today marks one month since the last convocation. “The Lord of the Association has given us a chance against unfriendly forces, and now the grace period has arrived.”

They were asked to sign a pledge not to engage in hostile acts against Cheonyuhoe.

The plan was to announce the results and decide on disposition right here and now.

Yu Seol said quietly with his clasped fingers.

“Please tell me the results quickly.”

Eunhwarin slightly lowered her head and began to explain what had been going on.

“Unfortunately, not a single force responded to the pledge we requested. Rather, they were gathering together in the Murim Alliance and gathering strength.”

The crowd began to stir at the unexpected result.

The majority thought they would bend their heads, but the result was something they could not have imagined.

Someone from Sapa couldn’t resist and asked a question from the audience.

“So you’re saying you want to give it a try with us without even knowing the topic?”

“They will probably try to avoid direct competition. “They will take advantage of the loopholes we have when fighting foreign enemies.”

What if the remnants of the Murim Alliance attack from behind while Cheon Yuhoe is fighting Cheonchuk? Just imagining it made me feel like something unpleasant would happen.

“Would a Murimmaeng do such a crazy thing?”

“It is impossible to say for sure. “They consider our Cheonyuhoe their greatest enemy, so if the opportunity comes, they will not miss it.”

The Shaolin Temple was the only force in the Murim Alliance that was wary of the Heavenly Axis, and the rest were the Murim Lords.

However, the Shaolin monk converted to Cheonyuhoe and the leader died. In addition, the Changryongdae, which had been communicating with the leader, had already turned their backs on him.

Therefore, there was a high possibility that the current Murim Alliance would take Cheonchuk lightly.

At that time, Yu Seol, who was quietly listening, snorted and muttered.

“This is absurd.”

“Now that the situation is like this, we must first destroy them, even if it means using force.”

The elders of Cheonyuhoe all seemed to agree.

“That is a reasonable statement.”

“I kicked away the hand extended by the Most High, so it is not without cause.”

“Amitabha Buddha. “If the situation is like that, it can’t be helped.”

Everyone focused their attention on Hoeju.

The mood was to make a decision quickly.

Jinsan Yu, who was sitting nearby, just watched and kept his mouth shut.

‘This is an issue that must be dealt with before sending Jeon Seo-gu to the Asura Church. Seol will know this, so he will make a good decision.’

No matter what the conclusion was, I planned to respect my granddaughter’s decision.

Amidst silence in the hall.

Yu Seol, who was hugging each other at the head of the table, narrowed his eyes and said.

“I have to attack the Murim Alliance. Right Now.”

Now all that remained was how large the attack would be.

“Well thought out. “We need to show overwhelming force, so please take all the Guidudae and Hwaryongdae with you.”

The Guidudae was a unit under Huaiju’s direct command, and the Hwaryongdae was also an elite unit made up of the strongest members of the Cheonyuhoe.

It seemed like these alone would be enough, but Jang Moon-in of the independent faction offered additional opinions.

“Elders, please give us some strength. Then it will be easy to organize.”

It refers to Gwangneungjinin, the highest-ranking member of the Shaman faction, and Jeonghye, the head of Shaolin Temple.

There was no way Gwangneung could refuse Jang Mun-in’s request, and Jeong Hye also expressed her intention to accept by putting both hands together.

There was no need to look at the results if two world-class experts who had reached the present level were together.

It is certain that Cheon Yuhoe’s unilateral punishment will occur.

Everyone seemed to agree with this opinion, but Hoeju’s thoughts were different.

“You can’t do that. “What will the martial arts community think of our Cheon Yu-hoe if we cowardly stampede and beat him?”

Everyone reacted in surprise to a single word of speculation.

Some lowered their faces as if they were embarrassed, while others put their hands together as if they were respecting them.

“As expected, Lord Hoeju, distribution is great.”

“I’m so ashamed that I’ve forgotten the pride of being a warrior for so long.”

“I respect you, Lord Hoe. “If you come back, who will you take with you?”

Yoo Seol had already chosen someone to accompany him.

He extended his index and middle fingers forward and pointed to a corner.

“I will only take the two heads of the clan sitting over there.”

Namgung Cheolhu and King Munjong, who were sitting silently in the corner holding hands, were startled.

“Yes?”

“Are you talking about us?”

There was no doubt that both of them were absolute masters who had achieved Hwagyeong.

Although they were in a position where they could reign as losers in one region, their power was not enough to defeat the Murim Alliance alone.

No, that was tantamount to suicide.

“that’s right. “The three of us will attack.”

Eun Hwa-rin, who was next to him, urgently tried to stop him with a surprised expression.

“Please think again. “No matter how much our leader has died and our strength has diminished, the Murim Alliance is a powerful alliance.”

She wasn’t the only one surprised.

Some people in the audience urgently began to dissuade the rumor.

“Hoe Lord!”

“There will be at least a few thousand people gathered.”

“It’s not a place that can be done with just three people.”

“I would rather go with the elders.”

Yoo Seol raised one hand and silenced everyone.

“I already made my decision, so you all know that.”

When the situation reached this point, everyone focused their attention on Elder Yang Goe.

They hope that Yujin Mountain, the closest to Hoeju, will stop them.

But for some reason, he too reacted indifferently.

‘No matter how reckless our Seol is, he must have calculated everything in his own way. ‘Nothing like cancer.’

It was clear that this decision was not made without any thought. That’s why I planned to trust my granddaughter and send her wearing giraffe gloves.

* * *

I couldn’t waste too much time destroying the Murim Alliance.

We need to quickly organize this and prepare for war against the Asura Church.

Yu Seol took the two clan heads and moved straight toward the Murim Alliance.

After traveling for half a day, we arrived at an unknown village.

“Hey, Lord Hoe. Now, can you please let me solve this?”

Namgung Cheolhu and King Munjong were holding out their tied wrists to each other.

Yu Seol said firmly as if he was not interested.

“No. “I’m sure I said ten days, right?”

King Munjong responded with a tearful expression.

“How can you fight in this condition? “The opponent is the Murim Alliance.”

“Hmm~ Think of the two of you as one body and fight.”

The two heads of families just sighed.

Isn’t this a place where all the power of the famous martial arts families, as well as the famous political factions, including the Hwasan faction and the Cheongseong faction, gathered together?

The two felt as if they were going to die.

Unable to bear it anymore, Namgung Cheolhu asked with anxious eyes.

“Hey, Lord Hoe. But what kind of operation are you planning? “You three won’t just attack us blindly, right?”

Yu Seol made no reply. Just looking into the distance.

When Namgung Cheolhu became anxious and tried to ask the question again, King Munjong, who was next to him, stopped him.

“The Lord has his own thoughts, so don’t bother him too much. “If you don’t go crazy, will you attack the Murim Alliance without any preparation?”

“Isn’t it okay to ask? And I warn you, don’t tell me to do this or that.”

“warning? Who knows what to be afraid of?”

“No, you want to try it with me now!?”

Even though the two were making peace, they kept fighting whenever they got the chance.

Yu Seol, who had been watching quietly, narrowed her eyebrows and shouted.

“I want my legs tied too!?”

“….”

The two, who were trying to devour each other, quickly became silent, like mutes who had just eaten honey.

Now, Yooseol pointed somewhere with a satisfied expression.

“I’m going to rest there today.”

The place that Yooseol pointed to was a pavilion with a signboard saying “Eunhwa Gaekjan.”

As I got closer, Jeomsoi, who was at the entrance, folded his hands and bowed.

“Come on! “Our Eunhwa Gaekjan offers the best food and comfortable rooms.”

“I’ll eat first. And please take only two rooms.”

Jeomsoi glanced at the hands of King Munjong and Namgung Cheolhu, who were touching each other, and smiled awkwardly.

“Ahhh! Okay, then I’ll just reserve two rooms.”
