Absolute Regression

Episode 295: Can you afford my interest?

Those were the words that Jooyang hated to hear the most.

On the topic of leaving Yeomwangchae.

This is what people usually say when they look down on themselves.

However, even if everyone in the world says that, only one person should not say that. This is the person who came to borrow Yeomwangchae.

“If you have a magician, call me and see?”

Sword dance provoked him once more.

At this moment, Geommugeuk read Zhou Yang’s emotions. This was the emotion revealed in his eyes and expression.

I really just feel like it!

There is definitely a part of the demonic religion that believes in it. Is it Gangseo landowner? Or is it another mine? say! Whom do you believe in?

However, Joo Yang, who had been dealing with all kinds of debtors for a long time, did not take it easy.

He had a firm belief in bullying his opponents.

Are you the leader of the Demonic Cult? What would be the point if we brought in swordsmen and beat up a guy who was spouting such nonsense? It is not violence or intimidation that puts these scoundrels in hell. It presents a frustrating reality in which one has no choice but to work one’s whole life to repay the money.

“Since you have the Master of Demonic Cult as your father, you can show such courage.”

It was a sarcastic remark, but I honestly accepted the sword dance performance.

“You guys have the courage to visit my father.”

“Are you really going to insist until the end that he is the son of the Demon Cult leader?”

“That’s right. I am the leader of the Demonic Church. I made it clear, so don’t talk nonsense later. How could you have believed that? Would you have believed it? I will speak clearly. If it were me, I would have believed it. Because my life is precious.”

Of course, Zhou Yang did not believe it. Because I had already received a message from the investigator there and visited today. This guy was the most shameless person ever, pretending to be the leader of the Demon Cult as his father.

“Alright, our small religious leader.”

“I finally believe it.”

“Starting tomorrow, I will send someone to collect interest every day.”

“everyday? “Aren’t you supposed to get it once a month?”

“The rules have changed.”

Starting tomorrow, this obnoxious bastard’s life will change from shameless to harsh.

“Is it okay to change things like that?”

“If you look at the IOU, it’s written down. “We can change the way we collect interest at will.”

Geommugeuk shook his head after checking the phrase written in small print on the IOU.

“Did you lend money to the ant? “You’re really taking it too far.”

“We follow the established laws. “You should have read it carefully before signing.”

The toxic provisions were truly hidden in an amazing way. This is how these people take advantage of people who don’t have money.

“Your name is Lord Xiaojiao. If you want to pay this much money, won’t you be able to repay it quickly?”

“Are you sure you can afford my interest?”

Then Joo Yang grinned and asked back what that meant.

“Have you ever seen someone who hates money?”

* * *

The next day, while Geommugeuk was eating in his guesthouse, a fierce-looking man approached him with long strides and held out his hand.

“I came to collect interest.”

I looked up and saw that it was the same person who had taken money from Pyeonjung earlier. The same guy who beat his wife and children in front of them and even pointed a dagger at the child’s neck.

Some of the customers eating around them put down their chopsticks, quietly paid their bills, and left. The remaining people looked away without making eye contact. Just by looking at this, I could see what this guy usually does.

“My nickname is crazy dog. Then you will know what to do next. When I walk from a distance, I take out interest in advance. Did you understand?”

This crazy dog, who knows how to torment people and enjoys tormenting people, was a hardship given to him by Jooyang.

Geommugeuk looked up at him and asked.

“But your opponent is a warrior with a sword like this. Aren’t you scared?”

The mad dog was armed with a sword, but he was not a warrior with internal strength.

“why? Are you going to pull out that sword and kill me just because I’m an unmanned person? Kill it! Then that day is the end for you and your family. Do you think our organization will keep you alive? “We start by tearing our families apart.”

Geommugeuk laughed and said, despite his intention to scare people.

“Then we can’t even start.”

The crazy dog frowned. Then his face looked like a really vicious dog.

“They say he’s a delusional person who is the leader of a demonic cult. I guess that’s true.”

The crazy dog threw the bowl of food that Geomugeuk was eating on the floor and broke it. There was a sense of crisis there, as if a fight would break out at any moment.

The owner of the inn and the guests who were watching looked sad. They knew better than anyone else that no matter how kind and sincere a person is, once they are involved in a power station, they can never return to their original life.

Besides, why is a crazy dog in charge? He was so abusive that there was no one in the village who wasn’t beaten by that crazy dog.

“Master Xiao. “What are you going to do now?”

“Whatever. You should be punished for breaking Su Jiaozhu’s rice bowl. Now, if you give a signal, the Mazons will appear out there.”

Not only the crazy dog but also everyone in the guest room were shocked at the word ‘Mazon.’ There was a primal fear that the word ‘mazon’ gave me.

“Look over there, not there.”

The crazy dog also turned its gaze to where the sword dance was heading. The guests also looked in that direction.

“One, two….”

Geommugeuk counted the numbers and tried to send a signal. Then the crazy dog became nervous for a moment. Surely it won’t really show up?

At that time, there was tension as if someone would appear.

“three!”

But no one showed up. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the sword dance.

“Do you believe that? “Will the noble mazons come to deal with people like you?”

The crazy dog, who was relaxed, was dumbfounded. The fact that he was nervous even for a moment made him angry. Just as he was about to swear, Geommugeuk took out money from his pocket.

“Here we are!”

The polite attitude made the mad dog lose his temper. But for some reason, I felt like I was being caught up in the other person.

You bastard, you were captured by me.

“It will happen a long time ago. “You don’t know that this young bastard is afraid of money.”

Sword Dancer dropped the coin onto his palm.

I thought the coin fell lightly.

Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Boom!

The moment the coin fell into my palm, it was so heavy that I couldn’t hold it. The coin crushed his hand and fell to the ground.

“Aaaah!”

The crazy dog’s hand bones were shattered and crushed by the impact.

He lifted the coin with his other hand and tried to put it away, but the coin did not budge.

“It hurts, it hurts! Someone please clean this up! Argh!”

My hands hurt so much. The weight got heavier and heavier, and it felt like it was going to burn a hole in my palm.

“There is still interest left. “Give me your other hand.”

The crazy dog lay down and looked up at the sword dance. At that moment he knew. The coin couldn’t have been this heavy, so the sword dance had to go to some lengths.

The crazy dog said in a trembling voice.

“Help me.”

The dog that was so fierce just now has become a dog that looks like it might shed tears at any moment.

“no! He said he would go to my father if I didn’t pay the interest. receive.”

The crazy dog tried to run away, but its body couldn’t move because of the hand holding the coin.

An unknown force forced his other hand forward.

“Ugh! “Please save me!”

“What are you talking about? “They say take interest.”

I lightly placed the coin in my other hand.

Whoa!

Boom!

This time, my hand fell to the floor, unable to withstand the weight of the coin. An even louder scream came from the mad dog’s mouth.

The crazy dog was lying flat on its face, as if bowing, with both palms pressed to the ground. Those watching looked at each other. Unconcealable joy flashed across their faces. He was truly a very mischievous person.

“Ugh. so painful.”

Geommugeuk used his screams as snacks to drink.

“Yes, you should know that money is scary.”

* * *

Joo Yang, who heard the news, rushed to the guest house with swordsmen.

I expected that they would be obedient and not pay the money, but I did not expect that they would run into trouble from the first interest.

“If we come here to get two coins, aren’t you at a loss?”

Pretending not to have heard what Geomukgeuk said, Joo Yang woke up the crazy dog who had fallen unconscious on the floor and kicked him with his foot.

“What’re you doing?”

When he came to his senses, the coin in his palm had become lighter.

“Ugh. “My hands hurt so much.”

Jooyang looked at the crazy dog’s hand. The bones in both hands were crushed, making it impossible for him to live normally.

“Please treat my hand first.”

“Wrong. “I will have to live with a disability for the rest of my life.”

Then the crazy dog screamed.

Joo Yang slapped the crazy dog on the cheek without mercy.

“Wake! What happened? Was it stoned? Or were you trampled under foot?”

“The coin was so heavy I couldn’t lift it.”

“What is he saying now? “Did you dream?”

I couldn’t understand at all that the coin had become heavier if it had just been beaten.

Zhou Yang glared at Sword Dance.

“What trick have you done?”

“A trick? I only gave it because I came here to collect interest. “Then he rolled around on the floor by himself and started screaming in pain.”

There, the sword dance performance went one step further.

“Are you also making threats of blackmail? Are you trying to extort money by doing something like this? How much will you raise from 100 nyang this time?”

Jooyang calmly asked the inn owner and Jeomsoi what happened. Then he did exactly what Geommugeuk said.

“When I gave him a coin, he rolled around on the floor and said it hurt.”

It wasn’t just one or two people who saw it.

Jooyang could tell that Geommugeuk had done something with the coins. This is the first time I’ve ever heard of a coin becoming heavy and preventing it from moving.

“Are you doing this because you know who we are?”

As Jooyang improved his voice, the sword dance imitated him.

“So do you know who I am?”

But then he said it jokingly.

“Oh, you know right? “He is the leader of the Demonic Cult.”

Jooyang frowned. I thought he was a delusional crazy person.

‘This guy is capable of something, right?’

As the knifemen were taking out the crazy dog, they picked up Geommugeuk that had fallen on the floor.

“You have to take interest.”

Geommugeuk held out the two coins that the crazy dog had spilled.

Because Zhou Yang had heard something, he did not dare to extend his hand.

“This is the one you like so much, right? “You’re not going to take it?”

There were many eyes watching around. If things continue like this, the prestige of the power station will fall significantly. In particular, the head of the power station was someone who thought that if he looked foolish to the debtor, this business would be over. It is obvious that a thunderbolt of fire will fall on you.

Jooyang gave a glance to the knifeman next to him. The person who was pointed out stepped forward with a shocked expression.

“Here you go!”

The exact moment when Geommugeuk dropped the coin.

Whoa!

Boom!

His hands also fell to the floor. This time too, it could not withstand the weight of the coin.

“Aaaahhh!”

The swordsman screamed in pain as his bones were crushed. Another knifeman rushed in and tried to lift the coin. But the coin did not move.

When Zhou Yang saw this in person, he was shocked. It was my first time seeing a scene like this in my life. It was not a simple maneuver.

‘You were an expert!’

The swordsmen all drew their swords. It wasn’t an attempt to avenge his colleague, but he pulled it out reflexively out of fear.

Zhou Yang raised his hand to stop them. If the opponent is such an expert, there is no way that the swordsmen of the Tongjeonso can defeat him.

Geomgeuk held out the remaining coins to him.

“If you came here to collect interest, why are you taking out the sword when you should get the money?”

Joo Yang asked with a trembling voice.

“What is your purpose in approaching us?”

There is no way a master like this would have borrowed money from them because he did not have ten nyang.

“Purpose? I just borrowed money because I needed it, right? You were the one who increased the money to 100 nyang, and you were the one who said you would collect interest every day, right? “If you hadn’t changed the rules, we wouldn’t have met today.”

Zhou Yang could not refute. Clearly, it was he who created this situation.

“Here, take the interest.”

Geommugeuk held out the remaining coins.

The knifeman who had previously received the coin had his hands on the floor and was screaming that he was going to die, so no one dared to come forward and receive the money.

Zhou Yang looked at the knifemen, but no one came forward. Everyone avoided his gaze.

Jooyang eventually fell and handed the knife over to the screaming swordsman.

“That person has agreed to receive it, so give it to that person.”

“Let’s do that.”

Geommugeuk walked away with long strides.

“Ugh! please! no!”

The coin fell and the other hand was crushed. He was screaming and then fainted. Everyone was frightened by that hesitation and ruthlessness.

“How can you, who go around with knives and extorting money, know? “The money I earn through working is so heavy.”

Zhou Yang had a intuition that even if something went wrong, it was very wrong.

But this wasn’t the end. Geommugeuk lifted the coin in his palm.

“They say no one hates money, so why don’t they want to take money?”

Geommugeuk held out the coin in front of Jooyang again.

“I have to take interest.”

The moment Joo Yang made eye contact with the sword dance, goosebumps appeared all over his body. I’ve dealt with all kinds of guys so far, but this is the first time I’ve been this scared.

“Hold out your hand.”

The attitude toward sword dance is completely different from what it used to be.

Zhou Yang did not dare to disobey. The fear that he would die if he refused dominated him.

Jooyang’s hand stretched out trembled.

The coin fell into Zhou Yang’s hand. Zhou Yang closed his eyes tightly, but fortunately they were not heavy this time.

Jooyang opened her eyes and spoke urgently.

“I will not receive interest or principal. Let’s assume it’s all paid off.”

As he hurriedly turned around, Geommugeuk spoke coldly behind him.

“Anyone wants.”

When Zhou Yang turned around, Geommugeuk placed two new coins on the table.

“Come back tomorrow to collect the interest. If you don’t come, I’ll come find you.”
