He didn't know how long he had slept. He had been working overtime at his unit, too tired, and fell asleep. When he opened his eyes again, he had become another person. A middle school student named Shen Ye. In his perception, this middle school student must have died from a high fever. He had taken his place. He should have told the student's parents about this. But— He had already arrived in this world and become this middle school student named Shen Ye. If he caused a…-

Lee Gwang had everyone’s love all to himself. Geoseon and Gwanggaek openly declared their intention to take him as their successor, and whenever they had time, Han U-gyeong and Sword Emperor’s Son taught him basic sword techniques. I joined the trend as well. I passed on Chatterbox Uncle’s Nine-Ring Sabre Art to Lee Gwang. It wasn’t a unilateral decision. Beforehand, I discussed with Jin Sowol whether he was qualified to become the Guardian of Hakrim, and we agreed that he met the two…-

When I opened my eyes, everyone was staring only at me. It seemed they’d been waiting for me to finish circulating my energy. I was grateful for their consideration. “How are you feeling?” Geoseon asked on everyone’s behalf. “Perfectly fine.” “Big talk, you brat. Do you even have the strength to deal with those nasty things?” Only then did I realize I was still holding Iron Rod and Jade Flute in my hands, the weapons I’d drawn when we first entered the passage. For…

They say a single moment feels like three autumns; even a quarter of that felt absurdly long. Being carried like a bundle of baggage in Gwanggaek’s arms, I passed through a tunnel that seemed to have no end at all, and could only conclude that Shin Pilju, who’d built this secret passage, had definitely been out of his mind. According to what Jin Sowol had told me, the original purpose of this passage was as an escape route for “Lady Buyong” in case of emergency. But no matter how many…

Once they heard why I was urging them on, Geoseon and Gwanggaek squeezed out even the last scraps of their strength and ran. The two old men covered the three-thousand-li stretch from Poun Mountain to Jin Sowol’s manor in just under thirteen hours. By the time we arrived, they were on the verge of collapse. When we reached the manor, it was that deep pre-dawn hour when all things sleep, but Jin Sowol was awake as always. Even though my wounds had healed quite a bit on the way, when she saw the…

My vision went black, but instead of weakly accepting my end, I decided to struggle to the bitter last moment. If I was going, I was taking at least one of them with me. Riding the force of Lord of Life-and-Death’s palm like propulsion, I descended toward the ground and twisted my body. Purple Lightning Sword Lord, who had been chasing me, did not immediately strike. Instead, he landed seven or eight zhang in front of me. Before his feet even touched the ground, we had already exchanged…

The distance between me and Pasan Fist Ghost was no more than five or six zhang. Purple Lightning Sword Lord was only seven or eight zhang behind him. Now well within both their ranges, I took drastic action. While still flying forward, I used Turn to twist my body midair, then unleashed Thunderclap upon Thunderclap at Pasan Fist Ghost, pouring in nearly my full strength. This counterattack absolutely had to land. If it failed, I had no follow-up. My primary goal was, of course, to knock…

In truth, that roar wasn’t just to fire myself up or show off. My bellow was a kind of camouflage, meant to hide the weakness of the trump card I was about to play. After I jumped out the window and gauged the auras of the people surrounding me, I instantly realized that fighting here would be suicide. I hadn’t yet figured out they were all members of the Seven Evils, but my instincts knew it was a force I absolutely could not handle. So escape was unavoidable. The problem was that they…

Bongpyeong was three thousand li away, but I covered the distance in a straight line without getting lost once. It wasn’t my first time on these roads. Bongpyeong, just two to three hundred li east of Seyeon—where I had practically wiped out the Inudang the previous day—was a large city of two hundred thousand. While preparing for that operation, with Jin Sowol’s help I had researched not only the route to Seyeon in detail, but the surrounding geography as well. True to its name, “Field…
