Chapter 283
Dok Gohyang thought Jang Mugeuk would be furious, but contrary to his expectations, Jang Mugeuk was unmoved.
�Is that so? Is that your choice? You�re choosing a difficult path. The price won�t be cheap.�
�Taking the easy way out doesn�t mean not paying the price.�
It may seem easier to take the road that others have already cleared, but Pyo-wol knew that comfort also comes at a price.
He had to carve out his own path, no matter how hard it would be.
That�s the only way to avoid having his fate be dictated by others.
That was why he rejected Jang Mugeuk�s proposal.
He was aware that fulfilling Jang Mugeuk�s ambitions would require him to spill a considerable amount of blood, but he was uncertain of the exact number of lives he would have to take.
Of course, he knew that it was his destiny to kill a number of people and that he would kill so many more in the future, but at least that would entirely be of his own will.
He wouldn�t have to be swept away by other people�s wills and end up having countless of people�s blood on his hands.
Jang Mugeuk�s gaze turned to Dok Gohyang.
It was a look asking him if he still wanted to use Pyo-wol as a sword.
Dok Gohyang shrugged.
It was a gesture admitting that his thoughts had been wrong.
There was no way that a man who was unyielding in the face of Jang Mugeuk�s aura would willingly become his sword.
The question now was how to define and establish a relationship with Pyo-wol.
Dok Gohyang�s pride wouldn�t allow him to back down.
He had no choice but to recover his pride by subduing Pyo-wol.
Dok Gohyang�s eyes glimmered with killing intent.
Although Pyo-wol�s martial prowess was extraordinary, he and Jang Mugeuk should be able to subdue him without difficulty. Moreover, right now, Pyo-wol was tired and wounded.
Subduing him would be just as easy as taking candy from a baby.
As soon as Pyo-wol noticed Dok Gohyang�s murderous gaze, he realized that he wouldn�t be getting off easy today.
Pyo-wol gripped the hilt of his dagger tightly and said to Dok Gohyang,
�You said we were friends, but you changed your mind quickly. The heart of a man is as cruel as the sea.�
�Don�t sea breezes have unpredictable moods?�
�I know someone who risked his life to uphold his beliefs, but someone else�s ass is as light as the mountain breeze.�
�Is that someone Jin Geum Woo? I�m sorry to hear about your friend. He wasted his time chasing an illusion that didn�t exist. Look how he got himself killed in vain. That�s why there�s a saying that people should stand in line well, that way, they can make proper judgments.�
