Chapter 0190 – Should I Take You On That Boat Too – Absolute Returns
by GreatBrother(위대한 다오 형제)I hope that this gathering today will be a major turning point in Lee On’s life.
“In that case, father, you can instruct her in a few moves.” I said.
My father looked at me and said, “Now?”
“Is it, like, going to wait until next time?”
Li An quickly said, “No need, Gongzi, I ……”
I interrupted her and said, “To you, this may just be an ordinary party, but to Liam, this is a chance to change his fate.”
Using my voice transmission technique, I said to my father, “At her young age, she has cultivated the Sorrowful Heavenly Sword Technique to the ninth layer, you should know how much effort it takes. She really works hard and is very talented.”
The father was silent for a moment, stood up, and said to Liam, “You come with me.”
Li An followed his father and walked out of the elegant room.
She looked back at me with a few uneasy glances in her eyes.
I smiled and waved her off, signaling that she had nothing to worry about.
I knew that my father would not hurt her, but only point her in the right direction.
I said to the demon of power, “Sorry to interrupt the fun.”
“With you, there are always all sorts of unexpected things.” Quan Demon said.
“That’s the beauty of me.” I said with a smile.
The Power Demon looked at me and said, “I said to that girl before that trust, can hurt, and blind trust, can bring misfortune. Yet I did not say that to you.”
His meaning was obvious:
You trust people so much, aren’t you afraid of being betrayed by them?
“Though I may look, as if I would trust people easily, in reality, I know in my heart.” I said, “I will give each person a different amount of trust depending on them. I think it’s too easy to trust everyone completely, or no one at all. I want to take a harder road, a road of trust and skepticism.”
For the first time, I bared my soul, to the demon of power.
“Do you think that this will be enough to take everyone in?” Demon Quan asked.
“One of these days, I’m going to meet, someone I can’t take in, or, my ship, won’t fit everyone.” I said.
“Why do you want to take everyone in? Your current strength is already enough for you to live freely.” Demon Quan asked.
“Because, I feel that the dam, is about to break.” I said.
The Devil of Power was silent for a moment and asked, “When the levee breaks and floods, is it only the people on your ship that will survive?”
“No, perhaps, the opposite.” I said.
“On the contrary?”
“My boat, which exists to stop the dike from breaking, exists. Perhaps, it is because of getting on my boat that one will die.”
I looked at Chansuhee and said, “So, you don’t have to get on my ship.”
Chansuhee looked at me with determination in her eyes.
‘I’m already on board.’
For once, instead of being emotional, she made a rational choice.
“I’m not getting off the ship, I’m getting on Lord Power Demon’s ship, no, I’m already on the ship.”
“Sister!”
“Who is your senior sister? Gongzi, please respect yourself!”
Cheon Su-hee hastened to disassociate herself from me.
“Good luck, Miss Chien.” I said with a smile.
Cheon So Hee wanted to laugh, but she didn’t dare to laugh in front of the power demon.
The Power Demon looked at me and asked, “Are you going to, let me on your ship?”
In the elegant room, there was silence once again.
Chansuhee looked at me nervously, waiting for my answer.
“I don’t know yet. To be honest, I haven’t really gotten to know you yet, I’ve only seen your fists. All I want now, is to make my fists, as strong as yours.” I said.
Devil Quan was silent as he picked up his wine cup and drank it down.
I also picked up my glass and took a sip of wine.
Chansuhee was careful, too, and took a sip of wine.
Power Demon, you can get on Big Brother’s boat, or, let Big Brother get on your boat. But one day, I will take all of your ships and put them in mine.
My boat, big, big.
After a while, Father and Liam, returned to the elegant room.
On Li An’s face, there were a few shades of excitement, obviously having received guidance from his father.
“Well? Are you satisfied with today’s welcome party?” I asked.
Liam smiled and nodded.
“Father, would you like to, also, join our squad?” I asked.
The crowd was shocked at the words.
Cheon Su-hee was even so scared that she covered her mouth, afraid that she would scream out.
I had expected that my father would say, “Do you think, I am that idle?”
However, he asked, “What’s in it for me if I join you?”
“Of course there are benefits, you’re a Heavenly Demon, of course we have to give you special treatment.” I said.
“What kind of treatment?”
“First of all, you can always let us play with you.”
The Power Demon suddenly interjected, “We?”
“Don’t you want to, Lord Quan Demon, play with Lord Godfather?” I asked with a smile.
The power demon gave me a hard stare.
The father asked again, “What other benefits are there?”
“You can always instruct us to practice.” I said.
“It’s not my favor, it’s yours, isn’t it?” Father said.
“Nowadays, many young people, are not willing to listen to the teachings of their elders, don’t you want to, find an opportunity, to educate them properly?” I said, “You can also tell us stories about the heroic deeds of your youth.”
“My stories are loved by men and women, young and old.” Father said proudly.
Li An and Qian Su Xi, forced themselves to hold back their laughter, they knew that if they laughed out loud, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Also, we can accompany you on your travels, to wherever you want to go.” I said, “At that time, you will be able to get rid of the Heavenly Demon Hall, get rid of Military Master Sima, and get rid of the eunuch’s chair.”
“And?”
“What more do you want? You are asking for too much, aren’t you?”
Father thought for a moment and said, “I also want you to play chess with me and hunt with me.”
Hearing my father’s words, a sudden warmth welled up in my heart.
I know that he is making these demands, not for himself, but for me.
“We agree to all of these conditions you have made, and you can, now, join our squad?” I asked.
My father finished the last of his drink, stood up, and said, “That’s enough for today.”
He comes and goes like a gust of wind.
“We’ll meet again some other time.” Father said to the demon of power.
“I will visit you.” Power Demon said.
We rose and saluted our father.
“Since you’re here, you can buy us a drink.” I said.
The father sniffed and actually paid for the drinks.
Boss Zhao excitedly put the money given by his father, alone.
“It’s a drink on the Sky Demon’s treat, it means a lot.”
Li An and Qian Su Xi, also carefully, held the wine cup in their hands and savored it.
Devil Quan finished his glass of wine, looked at me, and asked, “Do you know why the Godfather came here today?”
