Absolute Regression

Episode 194: Because I chose a handsome face.

“Heeya. “You shouldn’t move yet.”

Mr. Sim held his daughter Hee-ya’s hand.

As Heeya got dressed, her face and entire body were covered in scars. The girl suffered the greatest misfortune in her life. Three days ago, on her way to work, she was brutally assaulted. She was beaten and even raped by a man.

“Mom, you heard it too, right? “He’s going to break free and kill us all?”

The person who committed something that should not have been committed against her was a man named Gongpae, one of the beast gangs that dominated this area. He even committed this evil act in the morning, not at night.

Heeya, devastated, directly reported the incident to the Murim League branch in charge of this place. However, I heard that Gongpae was arrested and released less than three days later. He said that even when he was taken to the branch, he openly shouted that he would not leave Hee-ya and her family alone if they were treated unfairly. The branch released such a person.

“We have to go quickly, Mom.”

Hee-ya woke up unsteadily, then felt dizzy and sat down. There was no part of my body that didn’t hurt.

“Where are you going with your body like this?”

“I have to go. “You’re going to kill us?”

Heeya’s eyes filled with tears. I never dreamed that I would be able to release him so easily. What should we do? What on earth should we do!

Mr. Sim hugged his daughter tightly.

“It’s all because of me. “It’s because of me.”

She lost her husband and raised her siblings on her own. I lived a tough life, but a year ago I had a fall accident and seriously injured my leg.

As she was no longer able to work, her young son, who was only ten years old, began working as a jumsoi worker, and her fifteen-year-old daughter, who had been helping her mother by working at a dry goods store, added the task of washing dishes in the guest house at night.

They are such good children who are trying to earn living expenses and pay for their mother’s medicine. This misfortune befell my daughter.

Tears flowed from Mr. Sim’s eyes. Even though I gritted my teeth to keep from crying in front of my daughter, tears still came out.

Heeya gritted her teeth again and stood up.

“Mom, pack your bags. “I’ll bring mommy’s cart.”

Mr. Sim pulled her hand.

“You can go too. “Take your brother and evacuate first.”

“Mom, I don’t have time for this. “You know that I won’t leave you behind, right?”

“Where are you taking me too? Just avoid yourself for a while. huh?”

Heeya had all kinds of thoughts.

Where can I take my sick mother and younger brother? Or should I just pretend that I was bitten by a mad dog and apologize for my mistake if he comes looking for me? I had no idea which choice was right.

‘Someone tell me what to do! Please help me!’

Fifteen The only place she could cling to was the sky.

At that time, the second child, Seok, opened the door and came in.

“mom! sister!”

Seok was reminded of what was happening.

When Heeya saw her younger brother, she came to her senses. I thought it was right to leave to save my younger brother.

“Pack your bags, Seok.”

“Why the luggage?”

“I’m leaving. “Pack only the essentials.”

“sister! wait for a sec! Listen to me first. I asked an unmanned person for help. He said he would help us.”

Both Sim and Hee-ya were surprised at those words.

“who? “Do you know someone?”

“no. “This is the first person I saw today.”

Heeya sighed when she heard that it was her first time seeing her.

“Seok-ah. Listen carefully to this sister. You shouldn’t ask anyone for something like that. “What are you going to do if that warrior gets killed by the beasts?”

“no. “He was a really scary and strong-looking person.”

Heeya sighed again.

“Then what about him? “Why did you come alone?”

“I told you to go first.”

“He won’t come. I answered like that because I was bothered by the younger you asking. “Hurry up and pack your bags.”

She woke up unsteadily. It was difficult to walk, but I was determined to put my mother in the cart and leave.

I was surprised when she opened the door and went out.

Gongpae entered the yard looking very angry.

Heeya sat down in shock.

Gongpae said coldly.

“How dare you accuse me? “I was held in prison for three days because of four years.”

When I thought about the loss and defeat of the past three days, all I wanted to do was kill myself. In my imagination, I stabbed him to death with a kitchen knife, beat him to death with a hammer, and bit his neck to death. Killed dozens and hundreds of times.

But when I actually saw him again, I was so scared that I couldn’t think of anything. My whole body was shaking and my mind went blank.

Then, Mr. Sim came out of the room, sitting down and dragging his butt.

“Look, I reported it. “If you want to blame, blame me.”

Gongpae snorted.

“What are you complaining about, taking care of your Emina, who is crawling like a bug?”

Hee-ya screamed as if she had a fit when she cursed her mother.

“shut up! Shut up! What are you! Why you! Why you! Aaaaaaa!”

I screamed louder because I was scared.

“Is this bitch crazy? “You have to get hit to come to your senses.”

As Gongpae was about to hit her, Seok came running out of the room.

“don’t do it! “Don’t touch my sister!”

Seok stood in front of Heeya.

Heeya pulled Seok behind her. After holding on to not get out of the way, the two fell backwards together.

“It’s damned, it’s so damned. What can I do with my life like this? Everyone die by my hands today. “I will bury you in one place.”

The guy pulled out a dagger, as if he really wanted to kill them all. When they saw the blue blade, both Heeya and Seok stiffened.

“Please save me, please save my family!”

It was at that moment when Hee-ya was pleading. A soft word came from behind them.

“Isn’t asking for your life what that guy needs to hear?”

When Gongpae turned around in surprise, he saw Geommugeuk and Gwonma coming inside.

At a glance, Gongpae recognized that the two people were no ordinary warriors. In particular, the moment he saw Gwonma looking at him like he was looking at a bug, all the fur on his body stood up.

Seok shouted in joy.

“Warrior! You’re here! That’s a warrior! “You’re here!”

Mr. Sim and Hee-ya realized that these were the two warriors that Seok-i had mentioned earlier.

Gongpae also noticed that the young guy had invited these warriors.

“It seems like you guys have some misunderstanding. “I like that woman.”

Geommugeuk pretended to hiss at Gongpae’s modification.

“Your chance to speak in this life is over. There’s just one word left. “Even that is not your right.”

Geommugeuk asked Sohee.

“So, do you want an apology before that guy dies?”

Before I die?

Heeya looked at the sword dance with a surprised face. Geommugeuk nodded once.

Heeya shook her head. He was a person who did not like to talk.

“Not even the last bit of bullshit was allowed.”

The moment Gongpae was about to open his mouth to say something.

His blood and demon blood were suppressed by the earth wind of the sword dance. I really didn’t give him a chance to say a word.

Gwonma slowly walked to Heeya.

Gummugeuk guessed what he was going to do and covered Seok’s eyes.

Gwonma stood in front of Heeya. Heeya swallowed her saliva as she looked up at the horse. Truly, this was my first time seeing someone so scary.

“Hold out your fist.”

Surprised, Heeya held out a fist with a trembling hand. Gwonma’s big hand wrapped around the small hand. He then cupped her hand and held it together in front of her.

Very slowly, the two people raised their fists toward the ball.

The moment when the question ‘What is this?’ appeared on Gongpae’s face.

Huaaaaaaaa!

With the ear-piercing sound of the wind!

Puff puff puff! Puff! Puk puk puk! Puffpuffpuffpuffpuff!

Every bone in Gongpae’s body shattered and exploded. Everything from the toes, arms, legs, ribs, spine, shoulder blades, and neck bones was broken and crushed.

‘Aaaaaaaaaaaah!’

It was an excruciating pain I had never experienced in my life. The pain was even greater because my blood pressure was suppressed and I could not scream.

After going through all that pain, his face finally collapsed and collapsed.

All of this was contained in the move that Kwon Ma held out a little while ago, wrapping Hee Ya’s hand.

But that wasn’t the end. Gwonma waved his hand as if he would not allow his body in this house, and the body flew into the air.

Gwonma’s other fist stretched out into the air.

Gurgling! bang!

There was a sound of thunder, as if the sky had punished me.

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

A huge force swept over his body. Like a lie, Gongpae’s body disappeared without a trace in the air.

“iced coffee!”

Heeya couldn’t believe this whole scene. It felt like I was seeing a fantasy.

At that time, Gwonma’s hand clenched her fist once more.

At that moment, Heeya felt it. The fist wrapped around me is saying this.

Live strong in the future.

Heeya looked up at Gwonma. The horse was looking down at her indifferently.

She was no longer afraid of Gwon Ma’s face. It was not a demon, but rather a statue of the Four Heavenly Kings standing at the entrance of a temple. It was like a guardian deity protecting him from evil spirits.

Seok-i did not see the ball turning into dust and disappearing. But I could tell by feeling. That Gongpae is dead.

I could feel Seok’s tears flowing down the palm of my hand.

Geommugeuk took his hand away from his eyes and turned Seok towards him.

“From now on, you just have to live with courage like you did today.”

The courage to walk up to that scary horse and ask for help. If you have that kind of courage, you will definitely be able to live well.

“yes.”

Seok was hugged by Geommugeuk. The child was trembling in his arms, and Geommugeuk slowly stroked the child’s head.

“Please accept my bow.”

Hee-ya tried to bow to Gwon-ma. But an invisible force prevented her from bowing.

“There is no need for that.”

“Please accept my bow. “That’s all I can give you.”

“I was just doing your sister a favor.”

With those words, Gwonma turned his back and looked up at the sky.

Heeya looked at Seok. Seok ran and hugged his sister.

“sister.”

“Seok-ah.”

This time, Seok, who was in his sister’s arms, looked at Kwon Ma. Although he felt the gaze of a child admiring, respecting, and thanking him, Gwonma just turned his back and looked up at the sky.

Mr. Sim expressed his gratitude with tears.

“Thank you, I will never forget this favor even if I die.”

Geommugeuk spoke to Mr. Sim and Heeya.

“I know you belong to a gang. “We will take care of everything, so don’t worry in the future.”

And that wasn’t the only good fortune given to this family.

Gwon Ma, who must have felt that he would continue to extend the favor he had already shown, approached Mr. Sim and suddenly asked.

“Since when?”

“yes?”

“The legs. “Since when have you been sick?”

“Oh, it’s been about a year.”

“Can I take a look?”

Heeya spoke quickly instead of her, who was dumbfounded.

“please!”

Gwonma looked at Mr. Sim’s legs.

“Even if it hurts, just be patient.”

Before she could say anything.

fillet. Pop. Tdu-duk-duk.

I could hear the sound of bones coming together. Mr. Sim screamed as his long-hardened bones moved. But the pain didn’t last long. The horseman had a better understanding of human bones and muscles than the horseman.

After a while, surprising words flowed from the horse’s mouth.

“If you heal for a while, you will be able to get up and walk again.”

Mr. Sim was so shocked that he couldn’t keep his mouth shut, while Hee-ya and Seok-i cheered.

“Thank you, Eunkong.”

“thank you. thank you.”

The three people were so moved that they hugged each other and cried.

Lastly, Geommugeuk gave Heeya an envelope. What was inside was enough money to open a small store and support a family of three.

Heeya was surprised and asked with a trembling voice.

“Why are you giving me this?”

“I’m not giving it to you. “This is the money you will get from that gang, so don’t feel pressured and take it.”

How could this money, Gongpai’s death, heal her wounds?

This incident will hurt her and haunt her for the rest of her life. You will have nightmares and your distrust of men will be great.

But there was only so much that sword dance drama could do. Please overcome it well and live the rest of your life well.

“Why are you giving us this great favor?”

Heeya felt like she was receiving all the blessings she had never received in her life all at once. I was wondering if this was okay.

Geommugeuk looked at Gwonma and said.

“My younger brother chose the handsome face over there.”

* * *

After leaving Mr. Sim’s residence, we headed straight to the Beast Sect.

If you don’t handle everything neatly until the end, Seok’s family will end up in trouble.

Before I went, I looked into the Fauvists and found out that they were people who had done all kinds of bad things. They scare and threaten residents, take their money, beat them, and kill them. They were truly black people who ruled like kings in this area.

Even if these bastards were just that kind of bastards, the bigger problem was the Murim League branch that aided and abetted it.

“The fighting technique you used earlier was really cool.”

In fact, it was a too noble fist to be used on an insignificant person like Gongpae.

Nevertheless, it was because of Seok that Gwon Ma killed him directly. Since Seok asked Gwon Ma for help, he killed him himself. Live with pride in having saved your family with your own choices.

But what impressed me more was the sight of Heeya holding her hand and blowing the guy away. I believe that the girl will live well thanks to the hand Gwon Ma held. When I’m having a hard time, I remember those big, thick hands.

“I respect you.”

“Whenever you open your mouth, you are flattering.”

“I’m serious, Master.”

Although he subtly called him Master, he was still ironclad.

“It was a good attempt, Lee Gongja.”

That’s how we arrived at the manor where the Fauvists lived.

The guy who was guarding the gate was so shocked at the sight of the horse that he was giving his name, he closed the door and ran inside.

“emergency! emergency!”

Gwonma said self-deprecatingly while listening to the guy’s yelling.

“Did you see it? “My face alone is enough to cause an emergency.”

If it were Seo Dae-ryong, I would have made fun of him for three days, but I don’t plan on making Gwonma feel intimidated by the one face he has with me.

“I saw it. “The longing eyes that girl looked up at Madame Kwon earlier.”

Was it because those words made him feel better?

When Kwon Ma placed his palm on the gate, there was a loud bang and the heavy gate was torn apart like a piece of paper and flew away.

Gwonma went inside first. Looking from behind, the large entrance looked crowded due to Gwonma’s huge back.
