Chapter 27
At the academy where Seoyoon left, Geomseong was left alone and lost in long thoughts.
‘Rebellion...\'
The swordsman laughed at the thought that suddenly came to his mind.
It was also because Seoyoon\'s age was 31. It was not very appropriate to use the word rebellion.
However, to Geomseong, who was looking at 100 now, Seoyoon was just a delicate granddaughter.
A poor child who lost his parents shortly after he was born.
Turbuck.
The swordsman left the academy and headed for his home.
And he immediately looked for Seo Mun-cheol and gave instructions.
“Anyway, I need to find out more about this guy named Seojun Kim.”
“All right.”
Seo Mun-cheol followed the directions of the Sword Master without questioning anything else.
It\'s been decades since I\'ve been with the swordsman. It was because there was always a good reason for the swordsman\'s instructions.
Seo Moon-cheol immediately started investigating Kim Seo-joon.
Of course, it was a difficult task for an individual to do, but the swordsman was not just an individual, but a force forming a family under its name.
In the first place, there were only a few people in Korea who could ignore the name of the Sword Saint, regardless of whether it was a force or not.
Therefore, it was not very difficult to find information about Kim Seo-joon.
However, because of that, Seo Mun-cheol had no choice but to think about whether he should report this or not.
Seo Mun-cheol quickly shook his head.
That was up to the Sword Master to decide, not himself.
“Here is the information about Kim Seo-joon.”
Swordsman confirmed Seo Mun-cheol\'s report.
And what I came to know was…
“Is this the end?”
there was nothing!
Specifically, I could tell two things.
One is that he is a natural awakener, and the other two are that he recently obtained a temporary license.
There were two words, but if it wasn\'t for this, it would have meant that Kim Seo-joon had no information to be recorded.
In a word, it means that he is really a no-nonsense bastard.
However, what the Sword Saint actually saw was absolutely not the case.
To put it a little exaggeratedly, it was not lacking at all even if the name was blown up in the world.
Clearly he\'s hiding something. But I don\'t know what it is.
Something that even the Sword Saint doesn\'t know. Especially the guy who made his granddaughter, Seoyoon, say such a thing.
So the swordsman.
“Why are you standing so far away?”
I decided to find out about the guy named Seojun myself.
Thus began the observation of Geomseong Seo-joon.
Once that first.
“You\'re not going to hit me again!”
He was a really ugly bastard.
Having experienced it yesterday, I can roughly understand that the nature itself is not so bad.
But why?
“Was it not enough that you hit me yesterday?”
The swordsman just didn\'t want to see that bastard.
The swordsman said while suppressing those emotions.
“I didn’t come here for that today. And if anyone sees it, it sounds like I\'m beating people up.”
“You did.”
Seojun confidently answers.
The swordsman had nothing to say.
“Otherwise, why are you here?”
“It is an academy run by Seoyoon. Why can\'t I be a widower?”
“Uh… I see.”
And this time, Seojun had nothing to say.
The academy where the swordsmen of the world visit once in a while.
Seo-jun felt once again how great a person Seo-yoon was.
“There is something I want to ask you. Come and sit down.”
Seojun thought for a moment about what to do, then just walked in front of the swordsman and sat down.
In fact, it was not necessary, but Seo-jun\'s change in perception played a part.
To Seo-joon, if Geomseong was a man who didn\'t care at first, now he was just a grandfather who was worried about his granddaughter in the wrong direction.
Geomseong stares blankly at Seo-joon. Seojun opened his mouth first.
“What is it?”
“Why are you at this academy?”
Sword Master asked directly without any rush.
So, Seo-jun deals with his own relationship with Seo-yoon. And he told me briefly about the first time we met.
There was nothing to hide, and there was no reason to do so.
Of course, he did not say anything about his personal circumstances.
“Is that all?”
“yes.”
“Hmm...”
Geomseong quietly raised his eyes and looked at Seo-jun.
Some stupid looking guy. It didn\'t sound like he was lying.
On the other hand, however, doubts were seldom resolved. No, it only got thicker.
In particular, the words that he entered the academy and did not receive any teaching.
So the Sword Master didn\'t say anything for a long time.
“If you don’t have anything more to say, can I just go?”
“Where are you going?”
“Oh, I\'m not going anywhere, I\'m just going to practice.”
“training?”
The Sword Master momentarily brightened his eyes.
That would be the case, because that was the point the swordsman was most suspicious of.
Moreover, the potential of the guy I saw yesterday that I couldn\'t possibly see as a student.
If you watch him practice, you\'ll be able to figure out what he\'s hiding.
“Do as you please.”
Geomseong decided to watch Seo-jun practice without asking any other questions.
That\'s the second observation of Geomseong Seo-jun.
“one!”
The guy wasn\'t crazy.
The guy who said he was going to practice got up and started to sit up and get up out of the blue.
I just wanted to do something and looked at it, but he started looking around as if he didn\'t like something.
Then, he dragged the strange metals around Juseomjuseom and attached them to his body.
and.
“two!”
“...”
Yes... Well, it could have been.
The actions he\'s doing now are quite bizarre, but if you only look at it for the purpose of physical training, it\'s not a bad way.
Therefore, the swordsman is insane just because of that. It wasn\'t evaluated.
The decisive reason why Geomseong thought Seo-jun was insane was the action that followed.
that\'s right.
Uhm...
the image of a guy who is blankly standing there without any meaning.
That crazy bastard was just staring at the smartphone screen for some reason.
It\'s just a black screen!
Even hours on end!
In the end, Geomseong, who couldn\'t see it, asked Seo-jun.
“Are you meditating now?”
“......Ah yes? What did you just say?”
It didn\'t change that he was still a bastard who didn\'t want to look at him.
“I asked if you were meditating.”
“Ah… something similar.”
Meanwhile, Seo-jun turns his gaze back to the black screen of his smartphone.
The Sword Master uttered a sound without even realizing it.
“Meditation is definitely a good practice. But isn\'t that too much for now? Keep in mind that meditation is the training of the heart.”
Then Seo-jun turned his gaze to the swordsman again.
And then nodded.
“Ah yes.”
That was it.
He turned his gaze back to his smartphone, as if he had understood what he was saying.
And then again, meow...
“...”
He seemed completely uninterested in what he was saying.
It wasn\'t ‘pretending\' to look like he wasn\'t interested, but he really didn\'t seem interested.
Geomseong felt a little hurt in his pride with an honest feeling.
So, the swordsman really wanted to, so he hinted at it.
“I can teach you some numbers if you want.”
“yes? Sword Master himself?”
For a moment, Seo-jun was surprised and asked back.
That would also be the case because, as far as Seo-jun knew, it was very rare for Geomsung to directly say such a thing.
It is safe to say that it is not uncommon.
However, Seo-joon shook his head resolutely.
“no. Not much teaching... I\'m fine. And the flow keeps getting cut off, so if you have something to say, can you say it later?”
Afterwards, Seo-joon looked at his smartphone with a gesture telling him not to talk to him anymore, and then...
Geomseong was convinced.
this guy
I\'m out of my mind
“Ha grandpa?”
And it was at this time that Seoyoon came to the academy.
Seoyoon looked very surprised at the appearance of the swordsman in the academy.
And once again, I was taken aback by the fact that Geomseong was sticking next to Seo-jun and making a displeased expression.
“Why... why are you here again?”
Seoyoon calmed down her trembling heart and said to the Sword Saint.
That would be the case, too, because if Geomseong wanted to do something to Seo-jun, he was going to actively step forward this time.
That will was the same yesterday or today, but even so, it was not easy to change the image of the grandfather swordsman who had been imprinted on Seoyoon for 31 years.
Whether or not he knew Seoyoon\'s heart, the swordsman approached Seoyoon as if everything went well.
and say
“That guy. I\'m out of my mind.”
“...yes?”
Seoyoon lost her mind at the sudden words of her grandfather.
“Your actions are so suspicious. No, it would be right to see him as strange.”
Geomseong looked at Seo-jun with a strange expression and said.
Seoyoon naturally turned her head following the gaze of the swordsman and could see Seojun staring blankly at the black screen of his smartphone.
And Seoyoon tilted her head.
“What\'s strange?”
He asked the Sword Saint as if what was the problem.
“...?”
Geomseong had no choice but to be quite taken aback by Seoyoon\'s question.
It was a swordsman who couldn\'t remember the last time he was embarrassed, but Seoyoon\'s reaction was enough to embarrass him.
Geomseong looked at Seoyoon in silence.
However, Seoyoon really didn\'t mind, as if she was facing something common.
“Isn’t that strange now?”
“It\'s not much different from usual...”
Seoyoon suddenly said.
“ah. Grandpa might think so. Come to think of it, so did I.”
Then, Seoyoon smiled softly.
Geomsung did not understand Seoyoon\'s words, so he slightly frowned, but Seoyoon approached Seojun, leaving Geomseong behind.
“Seojun. I\'m here.”
“......Ah, Mr. Seoyoon. When did you come?”
Then he suddenly came to his senses and greeted Seoyoon.
But somehow... The atmosphere was quite different from when he had just spoken to her.
“Just now. Are you really okay with your body?”
“yes. sure. Take a look. Are you all right?”
“Really… you always say that. Why don\'t you go to the hospital anyway?”
“I know you’re fine, but what are you going to do? Watching Seo
-jun speak with a grin, Seo-yoon\'s inexplicably complex and subtle emotions welled up.
“I\'ll say it again, I\'m really... sorry.”
“What do you have to be sorry for, Seoyoon?”
“But…”
“If so, would you pay for the hospital bill? I didn\'t go to the hospital, but the expenses...”
“Would you like to?”
Seo-joon hurriedly waved his hand at Seo-yoon, who was really thinking of giving it.
“No no. It was a joke. what is the hospital bill? it\'s okay.”
“yes? But to pass it like this…”
“Then think of it as the price you gave me for this expensive weapon. You bought me this, but how much will the hospital bill be?”
Meanwhile, Seojun and Seoyoon talk about this and that.
Looking at the two of them from a distance.
“...”
Only then did he realize that he was clearly an uninvited guest.
“I didn\'t mean to give it like this...”
“So be careful. You don\'t know when or how I\'ll eat Seoyoon.”
“ha ha ha. Will that happen again?”
A smile did not leave Seoyoon\'s face, wondering why she was so happy.
Are conversations with him so enjoyable?
However, to the swordsman\'s ears, it was nothing but meaningless content.
Then all of a sudden
Swordsman could recall that he had never seen Seoyoon smile like that.
I couldn\'t remember exactly when.
Seoyoon\'s face that Geomsung had seen so far was either expressionless or gloomy enough to be thought of as cold.
Sword Saint suddenly realized that he had never seen such a lively expression.
“Then, continue your training. I\'ll take a look to see if there\'s a good dungeon.”
“yes. Thank you always, Mr. Seoyoon.”
Maybe that\'s why the swordsman didn\'t like seeing the two of them like that.
To be precise, I didn\'t like the way Seoyoon made that kind of expression to that stupid bastard.
To be honest, I didn\'t want to see that bastard who was laughing and chatting with Seo-yoon.
So, the last and conclusion of the Geomseong\'s observation of Seo-jun.
That guy dared seoyun...
It was just then.
jump.
Suddenly the academy door opened and someone came inside.
He was none other than a one-armed old man, Seo Moon-cheol.
At his sudden appearance, Seojun and Seoyoon\'s eyes also turned to him.
And Seoyoon was slightly surprised.
However, Seo Moon-cheol did not even look at Seo-yoon and headed straight for the swordsman.
“What\'s going on?”
In fact, the swordsman hadn\'t informed anyone that he was coming to Seoyoon\'s academy.
It was because if it became known that he was going in and out of this place, nothing would be good for Seoyoon.
Nevertheless, the swordsman informed only Seo Mun-cheol of the fact, which proved that the swordsman trusted Seo Moon-cheol that much.
“I have come to tell you something urgently.”
Geomseong nodded, and Seo Moon-cheol continued his speech.
“The Jinrihoe has contacted me saying they want to meet Sword Saint.”
“The Jinrihoe bastards?”
Seomuncheol nodded, and the Sword Saint continued as if he had nothing to worry about.
“No work. If you have something to do, tell him to come in person.”
Then, the Sword Saint turned his head as if he was not interested.
For some reason, it was a story that did not fit the current situation, but the swordsman was not an existence that could be seen.
“That\'s...”
Even though it was the determined words of the Sword Master, Seo Mun-cheol did not back down.
Normally, he would nod his head once and leave, but this time it was not the case.
Mooncheol Seo said.
“Sir Calia himself requested it.”
“what? Calia, that bitch herself?”
At the surprised swordsman\'s reaction, Seo Muncheol nodded softly.
“You mean Calia is in Korea right now?”
“It seems so.”
“Hmm...”
The Sword Saint pondered over the word Calia.
However, Seo Moon-cheol\'s words were not over yet.
“And Lord Moon. Lord Calia added one request at the same time.”
“Speak.”
Then, Seo Mun-cheol said with an expression that he didn\'t even know.
“If someone named Kim Seo-joon can come with me, I want to see him too. That’s what I asked for.”
