Damned 13th Regression – 203



<Regression number 13 is damn right, episode 203>

The 43rd floor expedition ends.

A small banquet to comfort the warriors even though they were defeated.

All of the warriors of the Western tribe had mesmerized faces.

The beard became droopy and the mouse’s characteristically narrow shoulders looked even narrower.

The chieftain and twelve descendants of the Xi tribe were annihilated in one day.

There are preliminary deficits who were scheduled to inherit the deficit in the future but there are only three or four.

Because they did not assume that they would be killed all at once most of the correspondence law was put into practice.

“There is no separate mourning house.”

Hu Guan took a sip of strong drink.

A low sad song flowed from Seo Jok’s seat.

It was a eulogy for the warriors who were now joined by their heavenly ancestors.

While a funeral song was playing in the West the other side was busy telling a story of a story.

It was the seat of the dog clan that achieved the result of killing the “Ten Dukes.”

The legitimate children of each tribe came to pay their respects to the new wolf head.

He is Gonghyeok a descendant of Wolf Heart Gongcheon.

Everyone was interested in the trustworthy male wolf who killed the demon archduke and guarded the last resort with the dragon god.

‘It stood out even before that. In order to receive blood money he cut off the heads of three Twelve members of the Western tribe in the middle of the conference hall…’

Before that he was a crazy person who went on a rampage without knowing how high the sky was but as things turned out like this he turned into a hero.

Some people doubted whether Wolf Head participated in the extermination of the Western tribe’s legitimate enemies but warriors from the Western and Dog tribes testified that they saw Gonghyeok fighting tens of thousands of human troops at the risk of their own honor.

The record of Tong Tong-gyeong’s report on communication between the Xin Dynasty and the Xian tribe’s legitimate children shows that unless Gonghyeok had two bodies he could not assassinate the Xian legitimate children while dealing with the human army.

‘The conclusion is that there is a high probability that they were killed by humans during the retreat.’

Even so not a single one of the twelve enemies of the West tribe famous for their stealth could escape.

It was a very strange tragedy.

Ki Soo-ah approached Hu Gwan who was scratching his burn scars and taking a sip of alcohol.

Hu Guan asked with a puzzled look.

“hmm? It’s been a long time coming. I need to get more greetings from the tribe’s elders. what’s the matter.”

“Where is the tiger head?”

“Grandpa I’m recuperating after being attacked by a guy who seems to be the Demon King. why?”

“If possible I’d like to see you today. “Can you say hello?”

“Is it urgent? “I couldn’t do it without you to introduce the new wolf head.”

“It’s urgent.”

“If that’s the case. what.”

Hearing Ki Su-ah’s strong tone Hu-gwan drank the rest of his drink and stood up.

Gonghyeok who was talking in a corner did not miss this in his eyes.

Late at night.

Grumbling-

The threshold opened and Gisua entered the tiger-headed quarters.

“Gisua a girl from the dog tribe meets old man Jian.”

“okay. Gisuah. “I feel dishonored for not being able to attend the banquet today.”

Blood was still seeping from Jian’s shoulder as he sat down.

Thanks to this the usually brave old tiger looked even duller.

When Ki Su-ah’s expression hardened Jian chuckled and lifted the bear.

“Don’t worry about it. You are seriously injured too but you are walking around fine. “It’s a shame that I can’t live up to my expectations.”

“no. “Elderly.”

Most types of magic or Noble Phantasm did not work on the self-defense wounds.

There was no doubt that there was a strong curse from the King of Death.

Jian didn’t show it just sighed and rested his chin on his palm.

“So what is the reason you came here? “You must have had a lot to do today.”

“That is….”

Ki Soo-ah sat down and slowly lowered her head.

“I’m sorry old man. “There are many listening ears around.”

“Draw. “That too.”

In self-defense he knocked on the floor twice.

Then the experts waiting near the room took steps.

“Uncle Jian I’m sick so stop smoking.”

“Miss Su-ah alcohol is absolutely prohibited. “I only trust my lady.”

The presence of the masters guarding Jian disappeared and the smoke of the gombangdae swirled around the room.

It was a method of blocking the air and vibrations in the room from the outside to prevent them from escaping.

“No one will listen anymore. “Why don’t you try to speak clearly?”

Ki Soo-ah slowly raised his lowered head.

She made eye contact with Jian with calm eyes.

“Tell me about the legend of the guardian spirit.”

“…Guardian spirit?”

“yes. “Except for the deceased Sobaek I heard that you are the only one who knows the oral tradition of the guardian spirit that is not recorded.”

Jian stroked his chin covered in white fur.

“I see. “Has it already been that long?”

There are not many legends about guardian gods known to the public.

A long time ago a good being who brought rain during a drought helped travelers in crisis and opened enlightenment to practitioners seeking the path of martial arts.

A messenger from God who is vaguely said to appear when disaster strikes the beast people.

There was nothing detailed in the Zodiac Chronicles the records of the patriarchs.

Hoshin who was quietly scratching his chin opened his mouth.

“…This is the story of those who became extinct once upon a time. “What are you doing?”

“Then did it really exist?”

“They too were one race. “Like the Kirin tribe or the Lion tribe which were extinct a thousand years ago… they are just an eliminated tribe.”

Hoshin suddenly stood up.

Not paying attention to Ki Soo-ah’s surprise he pushed the folding screen behind his back and took out the liquor jar that he had secretly hidden.

“The elderly drink….”

Hosin gulped down the liquor bottle with both hands.

Hoshin who wiped the alcohol off his beard with the back of his hand spoke slowly.

“The guardian spirit existed. “Just 100 years ago.”

“What if it was 100 years ago?”

“It happened when Seosin Sobaek was an active-duty twelve-year-old and I was taking successor training under my father.”

Ki Su-ah’s hands were shaking.

It must have been about the Hybrid Rebellion 100 years ago.

As a result of the rebellion the Dog tribe suffered the loss of their chieftain and ten of their legitimate children and began to decline.

Hosin looked into the empty liquor bottle and said.

“At that time the chieftains of eight clans including your dog clan died. “The guardian spirit’s pulse was completely cut off and the remaining chieftains were prevented from continuing the oral tradition.”

“then….”

“I shouldn’t have told you this story.”

However Hosin continued calmly.

“But you deserve to hear it. “Because they are descendants of the wolf who fulfilled all responsibilities.”

“Please speak up.”

Ki Soo-ah bowed his head politely.

“If you watch the wolf section of the Chinese zodiac it will appear right? “It’s the story of Gi-tan a knight-errant who repaid the favor of a glass of cold water with his life but lost one of his arms and eyes to the dragon-god.”

“Yes it doesn’t say specifically why there was a fight with the Dragon God but…”

“Anything that was lacking was passed on through word of mouth. A fight between the dragon god Gitan and the dragon god Yahuhon. Why did the wolf tribe become the dog tribe? “Why did the Southern and Northern Dynasties split?”

“Really?”

“This is going to be a long story. Okay let’s start there.”

Hoshin raised his head and looked up at the sky.

However there was no sky only a ceiling with a swaying lantern.

Self-defense reminded me of the stories of my ancestors that had been passed down from generation to generation.

“God created a hundred kinds of beasts. And he revealed that he was looking for the best beast to become his body. “A hundred beasts competed with each other to become the smartest strongest and wisest beast in the world.”

* * *

There was a time of unemployed animals.

Everyone fought to be chosen by God.

What are the qualifications worthy of God?

The Hak clan saw it as courtesy and duty.

Thus the formality of dueling was created and the foundation of society was laid.

The Bear people considered it patience and physicality.

Thus he constantly trained his body and laid the foundation for various training methods.

The turtle tribe wanted to overcome the limitations of their minds and reach God.

Thus martial arts which were merely techniques for killing people were brought to the level of Tao (道).

Years passed and the beasts continued to struggle.

The Kirin people who were said to be the smartest were extinct.

The lion tribe which was said to be the bravest was exterminated.

The whale people who were said to be the wisest were extinct.

There is no word about the disappeared race whether they were caught off guard due to their natural advantage or were kept in check because they were too strong.

They were eliminated.

As hundreds of years passed many tribes perished and some became stronger.

The twelve most promising tribes.

They did their best to be chosen by God.

‘There is not much time left until I am chosen by God.’

Eleven tribes remaining.

In order to eliminate all other tribes each tribe refined itself to the limit.

A time when the clan’s wish to become a race of gods is just around the corner.

I heard God’s voice.

“My race has been decided.”

All the creatures of the grassland bowed down and waited for God’s final revelation.

Among the creatures the most confident were the dragon race and the tiger race.

In their hearts they assumed that they would be chosen by God.

And then I heard a revelation from God.

“A strong and strong tiger. “My brave creature.”

The tiger bowed its head at the glorious revelation of God not knowing what to do.

God cast his light on the tiger tribe.

“Your gaiety and manliness really touched my heart.”

“no. no.”

“But his temper is impatient and when he sees blood he doesn’t know what to do and becomes violent so that’s his flaw.”

The tiger lowered its head.

Eventually the brilliance turned to the dragon tribe.

“Yong. “My wise and benevolent creature.”

The dragon raised its head as if it had been waiting.

“You tried to be closest to me by thoughtfully seeking my will.”

“Yes.”

“I can’t believe you can get this close to me. “Even I was surprised.”

“It’s natural.”

But God’s voice suddenly darkened.

“But when you realized that you were close to my will you committed foolishness. “You have become arrogant and have lost your true intentions.”

The dragon people looked at each other’s faces not knowing what to do.

God continued to convey his will to the creatures of the grassland.

“Even though a hundred beasts had been reduced to this much I could not easily make up my mind. You are all my precious creations and are subject to my will. “Which one of you will I choose?”

A dazzling brilliance descended from the sky and reached the grassland.

“So I chose.”

Everyone raised their heads.

There was a beast I had never seen before with spiritual horns.

It looked like a giraffe a dragon a tiger and a lion.

The spiritual beast came down to earth and uttered its first voice.

“There were parts of you that were outstanding enough for me to admire but there were also parts that were disappointing enough to make me sigh. So the best parts of you were gathered together to create ‘me’.”

The spiritual beast looked down at its creation with benevolent eyes.

“I realized a lot while watching you. From now on I will govern you in my ways. I will give birth to descendants and melt within you and you will be with me and understand the ways of God.”

The creatures on the grassland were silent.

Eventually they worshiped the ‘divine beast’ as their instincts told them to do.

Thus the era of hundreds of beasts ended and the era of divine beasts began.

but.

One dragon wanted to stand up and shout.

‘Oh my God! ‘Why didn’t you choose me!’

‘Don’t you know! ‘I am completely different from other inferior beasts!’

One tiger wanted to stand up and scream.

‘If I fight to the end here I will win!’

‘If you fight until you die! I win everything! I’m the best! ‘Fuck!’

Other animals also suppressed their own cries.

‘We were the most loyal to you!’

‘How much pain our tribe has suffered so far!’

‘How much do we have to do to be chosen by you…’

‘If I won’t be chosen! ‘I would have been better off dead!’

God cannot understand the hearts of creatures.

Creatures cannot understand God’s heart.

Their struggle which has not been fully ignited is not yet over.
