Became the Son-in-Law of the Traitorous Family

9. Don’t Live Downward – 02

– Hey, have you been coming here for a while? What is it, judging from the fact that he came back alive, it seems that the demon who claims to be Illivatus has successfully completed his job?

As soon as I re-entered the white space after a long time, the first thing that greeted me was none other than the disgusting face of the brainchild.

Should I say it’s a face like a missing link in the middle of proof that Darwin’s theory of evolution is indeed scientific, and that apes evolved into humans in the distant past?

‘Or maybe all the ancients 500 years ago looked like that.’

If you are going to fall into a different world, a fantasy world full of dreams and hopes where you can have fun while squealing with beautiful girls is good. Wasn’t it a joke

“That’s right, Master. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Master’s face, so I feel very welcome.”

To tell you the truth, I wasn’t too happy about it. It was all the more so considering the fact that I almost cut off the high pass to the underworld with Ilibatus while using the thunder island that the ghost told me as a special move.

However, if there was no brain island, there was a high probability that it would be I, not Ilibatus, who would be searching for that day, so I decided to show mercy and “Forgive” That nobleman this once.

‘Because… Forgiveness is the only way to break the chain of hatred….’

While I was granting indulgences to that nobleman in my heart, the emperor tilted his head at me and asked me a question.

– By the way, disciple. What does the word come up mean? Could it be that the word was newly invented in the last 500 years I was looking for?

“Well, it’s similar. A word that an old man who suffered a long time ago might not know.”

As a matter of fact, it only hurts my mouth to explain the latest cultural artifacts to a 500-year-old cat. I have been aware of this since a very long time ago.

‘Because even my hyung, who is a few years younger than me, couldn’t understand the social phenomenon of a virtuber at all.’

Hearing that older brother look at me and say, ‘Why are you so passionate about moving pictures?’

If I hadn’t been a wise man with a deep discipline of mind and body, I might have been in the spotlight of the nine o’clock news that day.

“By the way, Master. Actually, I came here because I have something to say to Master. I also have some questions to ask.”

– Are you like that too? Actually, I also had something to say to you.

“Yes?”

It’s not like we’re dating, and I was about to frown at the displeasure that our hearts are connected in a place like this.

Ugh-

“What?”

I opened my eyes wide at the energy concentrated in the right hand of the Thunder Emperor.

I don’t know anything else, but there was no way I wouldn’t know the identity of that energy that was clearly formed on my right hand.

“Strength?”

That was a type of strong qigong created by refining qi.

“How the hell does a dead nobleman use his ki? Did you suck at least some of my vitality through this sword?”

Yes. Ki is the energy that has been converted into the vitality within one’s own body through simbeop (simbeop) of the magical power that drifts in this world.

In other words, the meaning is in line with the saying that ki is only the property of the living, and evil spirits such as thunderbolts can never use ki.

But how on earth is that nobleman using his qi? Couldn’t it be that he really used this sword as a medium to at least use the Great Absorption Method against me?

– That’s what I want to ask you, disciple, what the hell are you doing outside?

After saying that, the Brain Emperor scratched his head at something and made a really annoying expression.

– Hmm, actually, it’s not very unpredictable, but what are you doing to spit it out of my mouth? So hurry up and say something. What the heck was going on outside.

Well, the one and only master begged me to tell him about the heroic story I went through in that way, but there was no reason why I couldn’t listen.

So, after calmly clearing my throat, I began to open my mouth, slowly recalling the horrors of that terrible battle.

“… So that’s it. I put a sword to his neck and said, ‘The laws established by the heavenly spirits are clearly alive in this world, so where are demons and other monsters set up here? Today, on behalf of all living beings on this earth, I will open a slaughter!’ When Kiya said that, the bastard of Illivatus suddenly urinated, threw its head to the ground, and begged me to save it… “

– … Well, so to sum up what you said… After being brutally beaten by an asshole named Illivatus, he managed to survive by beating his brain island, and after that, he obtained a sword?

“… Well, to sum it up, I guess it would be a story like that.”

Pinto was a bit hurt because the guy suddenly cut off his words while I was having fun, but anyway, if I had to summarize my story in three lines, it would be roughly like that, so I nodded my head.

– Hmm, I didn’t ask you out of boredom about what you went through outside. I don’t know anything else, but I decided that it would be helpful for your future training only if you pointed out this.

“What do you mean by that again?”

– Some of my memories that I had forgotten have come back. And the power I can use is very little, but it came into being. Of course, it is limited within this white space.

“Yes?”

– It can never be said to be perfect, but… I mean I remembered something. And I found out. The fact that the memories I’ve lost are far more numerous and vast than I thought. Until now, I was just an empty shell, staying in this space…

“… ?”

I blinked my eyes when I saw that nobleman muttering something incomprehensible.

‘Did that ghost have a hidden background like that?’

Anyway, why does this dog-like game have so many back-and-forth settings that are not even in the setting book?

Some bastard saw this and said it was full of easter eggs and loved it, but in my opinion, that’s just bullsh*t. So much so that something was hidden in the game, and until now, 10 years after it was released, something popping out was just proof that it was an asshole game.

– It’s probably a phenomenon that happened because you obtained the sword from a guy named Illivatus. Just as twins connected from the fetus resonate for each other’s existence, the two swords also resonate with each other and eventually affect me.

“… Resonance.”

As soon as I heard the word resonance of two swords, something came to my mind.

About the unknown power I was able to unleash in the last moment of the battle with Illivatus, the moment I heard both the sword and the sword at the same time.

If it wasn’t a waste of the unknown power that pierced through Ilibatus’ causal reversal and made it possible to strike him, that would be a lie, so since then, whenever I have a chance, I use both the sword and the sword at the same time, I tried to recreate the feeling of the day, but in the end, all of them failed.

As if the power I used that day… As if it was a mirage that was allowed to me because it was such a moment.

“Hey… Come to think of it, this happened to me… “

When I explained to the Emperor about the strange sensation that day, he also frowned and looked at me without saying anything.

– To be honest… I also don’t know exactly why that happened. But it’s not entirely inconceivable.

“What is that?”

– This time, my memory came back a bit and this is a fact I learned. Like the Unrequited Sword, Karshdel was one of the swords I used in my lifetime.

“… Yes?”

When I made a ridiculous expression, the brainchild sighed and collapsed into the seat.

– I finally remembered it. Just like the Unrequited Sword, the Sakyo Sword is also one of the swords I used in my lifetime. In the past, the country was a weapon symbolizing a warrior, and at the same time a sword symbolizing my authority.

I never imagined that a sword with such a meaning would be held in the hands of a demon at the very least, the Thunder Emperor smiled bitterly.

– In that sense, disciple, there is something I want to advise you.

“What do you mean?”

– Find the swords I used in my life. According to the memories I recall, there were 7 swords in total that I left behind in the human world. If I collect all those swords, my memory might come back completely.

I made a sullen expression as if it was a real annoyance to the Brain Emperor, who seemed confident that if all his memories were to come back, there might be a decisive change.

“Okay. If I have time, I’ll try to find it slowly. What.”

But unlike the answer, I had no intention of finding the sword that nobleman used in his lifetime.

Does it make sense to search all over the world for swords that may be scattered anywhere in the world, rather than looking for a piece of the orb of a dead soul?

Furthermore, decisively, that nobleman was a ghost. In other words, even if I went through hardships to clear the quest and find the sword, there would be no reward to hand to me.

‘This is the worst quest since Elder Stan’s Earth Defense Corps quest.’

I came to the final conclusion that there was no need to go to such trouble for a ghost suffering from dementia, although it might be a ghost after a beautiful girl who lost her memory.

“Well, by the way, the bastard Ilibatus I said I caught earlier. I guess you were a little acquainted with the master in the past?”

– Are you familiar? I? I don’t think there would have been any meeting between the demons and me, right? It would be understandable if the visible jokjok were f*cking defeated.

Even if they didn’t have to put on a sagittarius like that, it seemed that they weren’t that close to each other when they heard Illivatus talk.

“It’s not a big deal, the bastard called the master a god of war. I didn’t know this, but I guess you played a little among the demons in the past?”

In fact, even if I didn’t have to ask such a question, I could understand a little why the Emperor of Thunder hid the nickname of a godless horse from me.

No matter how much I think about the title of ‘God of War’… No, it’s a special nickname that’s f*cking second grade.’

At the time of the storm, such a nickname might look cool, but when you get a little older, it’s most likely that you feel embarrassed about it.

I don’t know why the Emperor of Thunder also hid the alias of God of War in front of me, but I have a reasonable suspicion that it was because I had to go through such a time of self-reflection.

Because I had the confidence to strangle that person without the slightest hesitation if someone I knew online pretended to know me and said, ‘Hello, my Lucid Dungko.’

As soon as I didn’t say anything by activating my warm empathy and consideration for others, the face of the brainchild changed a little strangely.

– Musinma… Ignorant?

“Why are you babbling all of a sudden? Do you remember anything?”

Respect for all the medical workers who care for the elderly with dementia is growing rapidly, but the brainchild looks at me with a somewhat confused expression.

– I don’t know about anything else, and hearing the nickname Musinma, I think I remembered something.

“Yes? What is it That I remembered that.”

– One of the seven swords I said… He is probably currently in the imperial palace. I remember somehow. The fact that in the past, I left the sword in the deepest part of the imperial palace to use for something.

“… Deep in the imperial palace? Knife?”

I had more experience going in and out of the imperial palace than my own, but I don’t understand something about the words of the Thunder Emperor.

Okay. If it’s a secret place in the imperial palace, I’m proud to say that I probably know more than the emperor himself, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a sword stuck in such a secret space…

‘Ah.’

For a moment, something passed through my mind. Could it be that Master is telling me about “That place” Right now?

“… Hmm. This is a bit difficult.”

It is true that I had to stop by the imperial palace anyway to resolve the issues related to Seina and Yurika, as well as to deal with the Grand Duchess issue, but entering ‘that place’ was not planned yet.

In order to enter the place and take the hidden peace sleeping in the imperial palace, considerable preparation was required.

Even by the standards of the original work, the main character barely dared to enter until about the latter half of the main story, so it would be almost impossible for me to enter there and acquire the sword.

After completing my calculations, I scratched my head and sighed toward the brain.

“Ehh, by the way, is there anything useful about swordsmanship among the returned memories? To be honest, the skills Master taught me were all skills with missing screws one by one. Please teach me something a little more ordinary.”

When I said that, the Thunder Emperor just shrugged his shoulders and said this.

– Okay. I think I’ve come back to remembering how to use the two swords. Do you want to learn the dazzling dual wielding swordsmanship from me?

“… No. I’m a bit unwilling to do something about the dual wield style.”

I had no choice but to use dual swords when fighting Illivatus last time, but personally, I don’t like dual swords.

No matter how old I am, using the Starburst stream will do fatal damage to my social prestige and face.
