Invincible Teacher

Chapter 116: Chapter 115

When Kang Hyuk went back into Chewsung Manor, Ji Myung was looking at the jug as if it was treasure.

“Drink, drink. Should I scoop it up with my hands? Should I scoop it up with a bowl? Should I use a jar? No! I don’t think it’s a bad idea to drink it all!”

Kang Hyuk sighed at the sight.

‘I told her to bring it, but…’

There was no warrior on duty right now. It was because he was hiding somewhere so that he would not get caught and get beaten for nothing. Kang Hyuk approached Ji Myung, stretched out his hand, and slapped Ji Myung on the back of the head.

“Ahhh! Who the heck is…”

“It’s your Big Brother.”

“Ugh…Big Brother…….”

Ji Myung flinched, but in the midst of it, he held the jug tightly.

“P-please don’t break the booze!”

“Why do you think I’m going to destroy the liquor?”

“You did it before! Was it about thirty years ago? I even tried to drink the remains from the ground, but you’ve burned it all up… Damn it!”

Kang Hyuk hit Ji Myung in the back of the head again.

“You fool! You were drunk and became a dog, throwing up inside the Quickstorm Regiment dormitory, peeing, and letting hell break loose.”

Kang Hyuk’s words made Ji Myung blush.

“Umm- what happened in the past is in the past.”

“You’re ashamed too, aren’t you?”

“…”

“Then, drink that liquor, only one bottle a day.”

“What? Only a bottle?”

“Do you not like it? I can always discard everything for you.”

When asked by Kang Hyuk, Ji Myung shook his head and nodded repeatedly.

“Oh no! No! I’ll do it!”

Kang Hyuk smiled inwardly. Ji Myung was as easy to handle as it was simple. An 80-year-old man, but he acted like a child.

“If you drink more than that…”

Kang Hyuk took the Attendance Book out of his arms and turned it around.

“I think you know.”

Ji Myung swallowed his saliva and unknowingly memorized the disfavor.

“Amidabuddha…”

Of course, he knew.

Kang Hyuk’s Attendance Book, which beat the Gladiator Ring Owner in Hakyung Town’s Gladiator Ring. At that time, the Attendance Book was so powerful that it was not thought to be a mere attendance book, and Ji Myung, who was watching it, was able to relive the horror that had been heavily beaten by Kang Hyuk in the past.

“Huh? Teacher’s here!”

Just then, Ha Goyun came to them. Sweat on her forehead, and seeing her coming from the yard, she seemed to have finished training. It was a little late to learn martial arts, but not completely late. Ji Myung could fill it up as much. If Ha Goyun were to grow up like this, it was clear that she would be an excellent student when she entered Hwachun Academy.

Most of all, she was very intelligent, as if she looked a lot like her grandfather.

“When did you come, Teacher?”

“I just got here.”

“What about Aerin?”

“She’s in the Academy. Why? Do you miss her?”

When asked by Kang Hyuk, she nodded.

“I’ll bring her here next time.”

Ha Goyun grinned at the remark.

“Thank you!”

“Okay. Go wash up and change your clothes. You’ll catch a cold if you stay wet.”

“Yes.”

Ha Goyun then ran to the bathroom as Ji Myung smiled and looked at Ha Goyun. The smile on his face was what was commonly called a father’s smile.

‘No. Should I call it a grandpa’s smile?’

The smile gave Kang Hyuk a light smile.

‘But was Ji Myung able to smile like that?’

After thinking for a while, Kang Hyuk grinned.

‘I’m glad to hear that. Something made him smile like that before he got any older.’

Ji Myung turned his head and looked at Kang Hyuk with a soft look.

“What?”

When Kang Hyuk asked at the gaze, Ji Myung rubbed his bald head and said, “It’s new.”

“New? What do you mean?”

“The face of you. When I first saw you in the old days, it was that face. No…is it younger now?”

“So what do you want to say?”

Ji Myung rubbed his face against Kang Hyuk’s rebuttal.

“But I’m all wrinkled.”

“Are you jealous?”

“Yes, I envy you.”

“Then you should also do Age Restoration.”

“If anyone can do that, why would Age Restoration be a fantasy?”

“Well… that’s true.”

Kang Hyuk nodded.

“Also, I have a question.”

“What is it?”

“When Goyun was kidnapped…if it was back in the day, you would have killed her on the spot. Why did you let her turn a new leaf?”

“What do you mean?”

At Kang Hyuk’s reply, Ji Myung patted his chest as if he was frustrated.

“I mean…why are you acting as a Teacher but not as a Former Clan Leader when you can go big with Age Restoration, and why don’t you come forward in front of everyone else to have them show respect to you?”

Kang Hyuk smiled at the question. He had been asked the same question by Mujin before. His thoughts have not changed since then, so repeating what he said to Mujin was the answer.

But Ji Myung was not Mujin. As he told Mujin, he wouldn’t understand even if he told him a hundred times.

“Our days have already passed.”

“What?”

“No matter how young I look now, my thoughts are old ideas, and my knowledge is old knowledge as well. My thoughts and knowledge may help future generations, but that’s it. Building the future is the mission of the future generations. Didn’t we already build our time and passed it on to our future generations? Then, don’t you think it’s time to stop and take a backseat?”

“…what are you saying?”
