Absolute Regression

Episode 193 Scary but handsome.

Gwonma and I were standing on a cliff where a waterfall falls.

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

The huge spray of water created by the waterfall refreshed the hearts of those who saw it.

“Now, you must never use your inner skills.”

“You, don’t break your promise.”

What we wanted to do was jump from a high place. Well, there was nothing in particular to bet on. It’s truly a battle of pride.

When I was young, I saw girls looking up from down there… and now they were playing that dangerous prank with a horse in the middle of Mt.

“Your thin body might shatter if it hits a rock.”

“Madam Kwon’s big body will hit the rock twice as hard.”

The determination to never lose was expressed in the gazes they looked at each other.

We jumped at the same time.

How could I be scared or heartbroken if I jumped without using my strength? Still, I deliberately shouted coolly.

“Wow!”

with a plop!

Gwonma’s new form entered the water first, splashing a huge splash of water.

Immediately, the horse stuck its head out of the water.

At that time, I was floating on water. He used his inner strength before falling into the water. He crouched down in front of the horse that stuck his head out and spoke sarcastically.

“I lost.”

The horse was dumbfounded for a moment at the playful expression on my face, but then laughed so loudly that echoes echoed through the valley.

Okay, I hope it’s funny.

I also jumped into the water.

I woke up to the ice-cold water.

While I was swimming in the water, the horse climbed up to the wide rock on the other side of the water.

Jumping off a waterfall without strength.

Have you ever tried it even once in your life? No, I probably never even thought about it.

“The water is really clear.”

After swimming for a while, I climbed up to the rock where the horse was.

I could have used my own power to generate heat to dry my clothes, but I took them off and hung them on the rock.

“I’m going to lie down for a bit.”

And then I lay down and looked up at the sky.

“Madam Kwon, please lie down too.”

“It’s okay.”

“How long has it been since you laid down in front of people?”

“I don’t even remember.”

“So, even at times like this, lie down.”

The horse sat down despite my recommendation.

We looked up at the sky in silence for a moment.

To relieve the fatigue accumulated in him, it would not be enough to go all the way across the midfield. So, I plan to keep moving away from the church.

“Let’s go.”

“Let’s stay a little longer.”

Gwonma looked anxious and anxious. I understood him. His life at school was busy all day long. They teach everything from white books to black books! If you think about it, it really wasn’t an easy life.

Gwonma, who had been sitting like that for a while, suddenly stood up.

I quickly stopped him, who couldn’t hold back his frustration and tried to use martial arts.

“You’ve been punching like that your whole life. “Just be patient this time.”

“I can’t stand it because my body feels so stiff and stiff just sitting there.”

“Now, please sit down.”

I sat him down again. He wasn’t easily adapting to this bullshit.

“you’re right. It’s harder for people to stay still. But they say that being blank like this is good for your mental health.”

“Where did you hear that?”

“I picked it up somewhere.”

The sky was blue beyond the horse that looked down at me.

“Master Kwon, look at the clouds flowing behind me.”

Gwonma turned his head and looked up at the sky. As he looked at the clouds, I felt stray thoughts enter his eyes.

“Don’t worry, subordinates.”

The horse looked at me with an expression as if he knew what I was thinking.

“Everyone is probably shouting hurray right now. Tell your subordinates to relax and joke around a bit. The leader is a fool, and the subordinates are also a fool. “How good is it?”

“Then the organization will fail.”

“What if I mess up a bit?”

For a moment, Gwonma was shocked.

“What if I fail? “You’ve never thought about that, right?”

“of course.”

“If you fail, there are other mazons, right? If you fail, you have a father, right? What if I hear some swear words? “What if my pride gets hurt?”

The corner of Gwonma’s mouth curled up slightly. “What do you know?” seemed like a sneer, and somehow a refreshing laugh.

“Just forget everything. Forget all the colored knuckleheads.”

How long had it been like that?

The horse relaxed its posture comfortably. The body was slightly laid down with both arms supported behind the back. Although I didn’t lie down until the end, I still felt a little more comfortable than at the beginning.

We stared blankly at the sky until our clothes dried.

* * *

I came down the mountain and walked along the path.

“Aren’t you going to go to Gyeonggong?”

“The scenery is nice, but just walk to the end of this road.”

As expected, he seems to be itching.

“Wouldn’t it be better to go to your destination and rest?”

When I hear things like this, I keep thinking of myself before my regression.

I was like this when I was looking for Dafa materials. First of all, I ran to my destination no matter what. Walking was unthinkable.

“Walking is so good for people.”

“It’s good to be blank and take a walk. “What’s so bad about it?”

“There are a lot of bad things. Coming out to fool around and worrying about work. In fact, the other person is not even thinking about me, but I am the only one thinking about him. Even when you go out to play, you think about collapsing the cliff. “There are a lot.”

He asked after a moment.

“Did my life seem that bad?”

“yes.”

In response without hesitation, Gwonma stopped walking and looked at me.

“It wasn’t because it was bad that it looked bad, but because it was so perfect that it looked bad.”

A slight feeling of relief crossed his face.

“I understand what you’re worried about, but I’m not someone who breaks down easily.”

“Is that true?”

“what?”

“Are you really someone who doesn’t break down easily? How do you know? “I hope you never break down.”

The horse gave no answer.

“When I look at my father’s royal tablet, the image of Madam Gwon standing and looking at her subordinates comes to mind. “You both feel trapped there.”

“!”

Gwonma, you have come this far with your unwavering steadfastness, so shouldn’t you take a break now?

He didn’t say anything. We walked for a while in silence.

I asked Gwonma at the end of the trail.

“Is there anything you want to try?”

Gwonma couldn’t find an answer easily and asked me back.

“What about you?”

“I’m working on it right now.”

A faint smile appeared on the horse’s lips. People keep saying that Ian and Cheon So-hee are scary when I see them, but I’m not scared of Kwon Ma’s face. Actually, it wasn’t scary from the beginning.

“Then I’ll leave it to you.”

“Now then, let’s go eat something delicious first. “Isn’t it true that you can’t miss food when traveling?”

I ran out first and my horse ran with me. The horse began to run ahead, pouring out the speed it had been holding back the whole time.

* * *

“Here we go. “A restaurant with 200 years of tradition!”

The place we arrived at was a place called Songmyeonggwan that sold alcohol and food. It was so popular that customers were lining up.

“How did you know about this place?”

“Is that all I know? “The representative dish here is Kwon Ma’s favorite bamboo shoot dish.”

“How do you know that?”

“Don’t look at me like that. I didn’t look into it to poison Madam Kwon’s food. “He will be my future teacher, so I need to know that.”

A man standing in line in front of us glanced over and was startled when he saw the horse. The man said, trembling.

“Would you like me to give it to you?”

“It’s okay.”

The man turned his head in response to the horse’s answer and never looked back again.

I smiled and asked Gwonma.

“You’ve never stood in line to buy food in your life, right?”

I asked again when I saw the horse’s expression asking if it would be possible.

“Isn’t it fun?”

Gwonma looked around. New people lining up behind people in line, people walking up and down the street, and hawkers soliciting customers.

“It’s not bad.”

Songmyeongkwan is a very large restaurant with more than ten people in Jeomsoi alone, so the line went down quickly.

When it was our turn, we sat down. We ordered a few dishes and drinks.

“Why are you ordering so much?”

“It’s been a while since I’ve been here, so I have to eat everything before I go.”

The drink came out first and was poured for Gwonma, but Gwonma’s disapproving gaze was directed at the warriors passing by outside on the street, swearing among themselves.

I reached out and blocked his view.

“We are fooling around! That’s a rock. That’s a chair. Do you understand?”

“Okay.”

Gwonma poured me a drink and said,

“At your age, it would be difficult to hold back your enthusiasm if you were a martial arts expert.”

“So you’re not playing with the Mazon people? “To avoid unnecessary accidents.”

“There may be different reasons for hanging out with us, but it’s a good thing that we don’t get in trouble.”

“oh! “This is the first compliment that Madam Kwon has ever given me.”

I raised my glass and toasted him.

After a while, the food came out. Kwon Ma was surprised when he tried a piece of his favorite bamboo shoot dish.

“It’s really delicious.”

“There’s a reason there’s a line at every house.”

My eyes turned to the kitchen.

“How is it? Should we kidnap Suksoo and take him to the main school?”

“You’re saying things you don’t mean.”

“Why are you so certain? “If you take me, I will go.”

An unexpected word came out of the horse’s mouth as he stared at me for a moment.

“I heard your mage is a mage who doesn’t break bars’ tables?”

I was surprised. I didn’t know that Gwonma knew that.

“How did you know?”

“I also have ears to hear.”

This is why what I said to my brother was correct. Even if they don’t seem to be watching, all the Mazons are watching.

“Yes, so if others are lining up, we should also wait in line to eat. If Suksoo is kidnapped, we have to go rescue him. “This is my magic.”

The horse looked at me intently. How will my magic be received by him?

Gwonma, who was wondering whether to say something or not, focused on eating again.

As I was drinking, one of the two women sitting next to me spoke to me.

“Is this your first time here?”

“Yes, this is my first trip.”

“Then there are some places you must visit.”

“Could you please join us and tell us in detail?”

The women glanced at the horse and then happily joined them.

I cooked a new dish for them.

I can feel the horse’s surprise. This process of them naturally joining together seems to be a refreshing shock to him.

A woman you meet for the first time talks to you first and joins you?

So he was wary of women. I narrowed my eyes to see if they were trying to do something, but the women were just young kids who liked to have fun.

The reason we even had them sit together was because of the horse riding.

He was a gwonma who lived single his whole life. Nothing related to the woman was recorded. Maybe he gave up on love life in the first place because of his appearance?

So, I am trying to give Gwonma an experience that he has never had before.

I drank alcohol and talked about various things with the women. I made them laugh with funny stories. Gwonma, who was wary at first, later enjoyed the event with an interesting look in his eyes.

Sometimes, I asked the Gwonma what the Gwonma could give a better answer to. For example, something like this.

“Please tell these young people the story of how you broke through the Murim Alliance’s Cheonnajimang when you were young.”

Of course, the women did not believe it and laughed. Because it went beyond the bravado of men who usually tremble at a drinking party. At that time, the horse looked at me and asked with his eyes. Are you sure? I smiled and shook my head. No, I don’t trust anyone.

After having fun for about half an hour, the women got up first.

That was even more surprising to Gwonma. Are you just going to leave it like that? No plans to meet again next time?

After the women left, Gwonma asked.

“Did you, by any chance, send a message to those women to give them money separately? Or did he threaten to kill me if I didn’t join him? Or were they women targeting our warbag?”

Anyway, I never thought I would think like this.

“Otherwise, there’s no way the women would ask to join us, right?”

“That’s because of me.”

“I understand that. “One of them was staring at your face the whole time.”

“you’re right. That’s why I asked to join us.”

“Even though I’m next to you?”

“I guess you didn’t join us because you were scared when you saw Madam Kwon’s face?”

Gwonma nodded.

“Madam Kwon doesn’t know two things. “Kids these days get along and play comfortably even with strangers.”

“Then what kind of trouble are you going to get yourself into?”

“You’re not afraid of things these days.”

“Not you?”

“Including me. “I’m not afraid either, right?”

“It’s too much to have without it. And what is the second?”

“It is true that Madam Kwon looks scary, but she does not have an ugly face. “He’s rather handsome.”

Gwonma was surprised. It was the most surprised reaction since meeting me. This was probably the first time in my life I had heard that he was handsome.

“Even if you flatter me, please flatter me in a way that I can accept.”

“I’m good at flattery, but what you said right now is not flattery. To women, Madam Kwon’s face may seem attractive. “I can feel reassured that no matter what happens, they will protect me.”

He added to Gwonma, who didn’t know what to say.

“Today’s conclusion. “Mr. Kwon is scary, but he has a handsome face!”

After emptying his glass, Gwonma came to a conclusion.

“You are crazy.”

“In the end, I heard that from Madam Kwon too!”

At that time, a young Jeomsoy walked towards us. Was he only ten years old? My eyes were swollen from crying so much.

“I’ve been watching since a while ago. For some reason, I thought it would be okay to ask Daehyeop for a favor.”

The child begged the horse.

“Please help me.”

From the tears in the child’s eyes, I could feel the weight of pain that even adults could not bear.

I gently stroked the child’s head and spoke to the horse.

“And not only is he handsome, but in the eyes of an innocent child, he also has a face that looks like he will help you if you ask for it.”
