Chapter 43: Let’s Go! (8)
The talisman called upon the White Horse General, who served the supreenerals’ primary roles were to protect Gods, and the White Horse General ranked top a them If Chi-Woo’s aim had been to purify a spirit, there would have been no need for hiht noever, he needed help annihilating vengeful spirits
Heavenly generals came down to the human world from time to time to vanquish evil spirits Of course, it didn’t happen often, and although Chi-Woo had seen his mentor cleanse eneral only once
‘Wow, he’s not someone who comes just because you call him’ Chi-Woo worried whether the White Horse General would accept his request, but thankfully, the general had descended with his troops
“Coain? Oh, when did we meet? Come on, sir Don’t you reed ely as he bowed and clasped his hands at nothing
“Yes, sir I a at that ti in front of him, Chi-Woo conversed like soratitude to you for responding even though I’ve bothered your esteemed self I was in such a desperate situation that I had no choice but to request for your help…”
…No, now that they looked carefully, it see bloodlust that brought goosebuone Instead, they felt reassured and safe like they were protected by an army with an insurmountable nu scent of sandalwood, which on its oas enough to calh neither of theeneral or his men, Chi-Woo saw clearly as before hi on a giant red-crowned crane; and below hi onto their spears while waiting for their general’s orders
“This isn’t your business? Hold on, please Please don’t abandon your faithful servant,” Chi-Woo hurriedly pleaded with the general Although the White Horse General had responded to his call, he planned to return after vanquishi+ng one or two spirits Chi-Woo had predicted this beforehand After all, he had simply burned a talisman that was passed down to him
His mentor was an unworldly person, who dedicated his whole life to using his special ability for others Thus, in recognition of his ood deeds, the Heavens looked upon his es In comparison, Chi-Woo had lived a short life and hadn’t done much for others There was no reason for them to offer him help The White Horse General had probably shown up in consideration of Chi-Woo’smore, which was a eneral leave like this
“Please excuse any offense I ht cause you, sir, but how could you draw such lines? This place is full of lost hu hand” Chi-Woo had to secure the general’s help so the humans here are extremely vile, and it is impossible to communicate with the on? That’s how I aeneral re when a bright idea struck him suddenly
“Look at that, sir!” He yelled and pointed an accusing finger like a child tattle-telling to their parent “They aren’t satisfied with si humans into a pit of pure evil, but went so far as to entertain theeneral’s eyebrow rose slightly when he saw the blood-stained bones and severely wrecked statues
“Those beings deserve to be shredded to a thousand pieces Are you really going to let such foul creatures off the hook?” Chi-Woo licked his lips “I certainly won’t be able to stand by and do nothing Although I have grown up in a different world, this is too serious for ot on one knee and continued, “Yet, I ath to help these people That’s why I implore you, Sir White Horse Heavenly General, please allow us to witness yourthat ca you, sir If you help us this time, I’ll muster all I have to save those who are here and the world at large as you so wish” Without truly realizing what he was saying, Chi-Woo kept blabbering, “With upright thoughts and just behavior, I will save the good lives; and with nity of Gods, and I willfaith”
—…
The general sighed He had planned to not let Chi-Woo borrow his powers no ious acts were committed here for all to see, it didn’t involve Gods that he served, and thus it didn’t matter to him Nevertheless, there was a reason he couldn’t turn down Chi-Woo’s request and return ho behind Chi-Woo that was pressuring hieneral wouldn’t have even come down to the mortal realm in the first place As someone who protected the Jade Emperor, the White Horse General could snort at most Gods’ requests without care Yet, this ti hindering hieneral couldn’t hide his discoot was cold, ‘Stop talking nonsense and do what you are supposed to do’
The general licked his lips It hurt his pride to simply listen to Chi-Woo’s request, but he was hesitant to refuse He had to save face somehow That hen he heard Chi-Woo’s words
—I’ll muster all I have to save this World…
It was nonsensical for the White Horse General to reed to recall otten about Chi-Woo’s existence until now, but he now relances at hieneral first saw Chi-Woo, he was shocked The infinite potential that he had felt frohtened hiht hioosebumps popped up all over his body If only he could awaken this boy’s potential and hteous and just deeds, he couldn’t i works that could be acco of his own volition that he would walk the straight path of justice
—Would you swear it?
“Sorry?”
—Would you swear that there’s not an ounce of lie in your declaration?
“Of course, sir! Of course!” Chi-Woo readily agreed, not realizing as going through the general’s h it didn’t push him to act at once, he now had a reason to help, which was investing in Chi-Woo’s future It was still too early to co worked out…
‘Fufu, how interesting,’ the general thought Unfortunately, things didn’t exactly go according to the White Horse General’s plans
‘Are you trying to take advantage of hih his mind ‘Well…I suppose it will be fine Someone at your level could at least be of soeneral didn’t like Princess Sahee’s arrogant tone It sounded like she was talking to a lower-ranking subordinate
‘You’re not planning tohim one easy favor, are you?’ she asked
The White Horse General hesitated
‘You’re a great general, but you’re sniffing around for goods like soive you one ofshare’
‘darowled ‘You’ve crossed a line!’
‘I’ll say the sa to secretly nibble off this boy, aren’t you?’
‘I don’t understand what you’re saying I have no intention of doing that’
