Were ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍these truly the disciples of prestigious orthodox sects and the members of the very first armed force formed in the Murim Alliance?

It ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍was a truly tragic and cruel sight.

Patrick, ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍who had created this scene, had a truly refreshed expression on his face after stretching his body for the first time in a while.

“Kuuuh…. ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍Brings back memories. Back when I was doing well, I used to beat up members of the Nine Sects One Gang and the Five Great Families without discrimination.”

Just ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍hearing the words, it sounded like an achievement that a great figure of the Unorthodox Alliance would accomplish.

“They’re still a bit under-ripe, but it’s not bad to have old memories resurface after a long time.”

What was even more terrifying was that his words did not seem like a bluff.

Because….

‘How does he know the characteristics of our sect so accurately?’

‘This is impossible.’

During their sparring with Patrick, if they showed even the slightest immaturity, it was immediately pointed out, and that part was attacked.

Frustratingly, the advice was so accurate that there was no room for rebuttal.

This was advice that would be absolutely impossible for someone who wasn’t quite familiar with the martial arts of the Nine Sects and the Five Great Families.

Looking at the results alone, there was no better opponent for a guided sparring session.

He possessed overwhelming martial prowess and accurately pointed out their deficiencies.

Aside from the accompanying physical pain, this would undoubtedly be helpful to them.

But then….

“Elione.”

“Yes, honey.”

Patrick called out to Elione, who had been watching quietly from the side.

And what he said was….

“Heal these kids for me.”

“Alright.”

He asked for the squad members to be healed.

The exhausted members forced themselves up and let out sighs of relief.

‘Thank goodness. At least he’s healing us.’

‘We’re saved. I thought that with his dog-mess-like personality, he wouldn’t provide treatment because he’d be stingy with the medicine money….’

The squad members who thought this sighed in relief.

But on the other hand….

“I… I will receive treatment from the Sect Master.”

“Lady, I’m fine. I said I’m fine.”

“Uwaaaah. I don’t want to. I don’t want treatment!”

The reaction of the Twin Dragon Sect disciples was quite different.

What was this?

Why were they reacting so horribly when offered treatment?

To the questioning squad members, Elione approached and said.

“A pretty young lady’s skin is bruised. I’ll heal it right away.”

“Pardon? What do you… Huk?!”

A faint green light emanated from Elione’s hand, and that light seeped into the injured area of Emei White Phoenix, Im Yeon-hwa.

Then, surprisingly, the bruise on her skin began to fade, and the pain started to disappear.

It was a healing art using spirit arts.

It was a skill that only a very few elves who received the protection of the World Tree could use.

In that it used divine power for healing, it was not so different from the healing magic of priests who used holy power.

Especially in Elione’s case, she was an elf who received very special treatment from the World Tree, and her healing power was strong enough to rival that of a high-ranking priest.

As a result….

“My… my arm.”

“My leg….”

“No way.”

All the squad members’ injuries were healed.

Their depleted internal energy couldn’t be helped, but the external and internal injuries on their bodies were cleanly healed.

“Wh-… what on earth is this?”

To Jaegal Mun, who asked with a dumbfounded expression, Elione rested her chin on her finger and said.

“Hmm. To put it in the terms here, it’s our family’s secret art? A secret technique? Something like that.”

“Th-… this is unbelievable….”

Jaegal Mun was horrified.

A medical art that could heal an opponent’s injuries in an instant.

No, this was a secret art that should be called a medical martial art rather than a medical art.

If the entire Jianghu knew that such a secret art existed, everyone would covet her.

‘No, come to think of it, when she sparred with us, she used a mysterious secret art that controlled the wind and archery skills that had reached a divine level. If you add that martial prowess to it….’

The value of the woman named Elione was not lacking even when compared to a walking mountain of gold….

SMACK!

“Aack! Why did you hit me?”

“This bastard. How dare you covet the Captain’s woman? Huh?”

“Wh-… when did I?”

“Did you or did you not think it would be good to gently coax her and take her to the Jaegal Clan?”

“……”

SMACK!

“Aack!”

He had forgotten.

That this beautiful and wonderful treasure already had an owner.

A very ferocious owner at that.

“Ugh….”

After all the treatment was finished, Elione asked.

“Is there anyone else who is hurt?”

There was no way there was.

Everyone’s injuries had been cleanly healed.

“Honey, they’re all fixed.”

“Yeah, good job. That’s my wife.”

Patrick hugged Elione and kissed her on the cheek, saying.

“That’s my wife. Whose wife could be this pretty and capable?”

“It’s because you hit them well in a way that maximized their pain without causing serious injuries.”

“That’s my specialty.”

“You’re really amazing.”

Their conversation was truly….

It was a scene that naturally brought the phrase ‘a husband and wife in perfect harmony’ to mind.

But then….

“Alright, shall we continue?”

It was a single phrase sufficient to freeze everyone.

The disciples of the Twin Dragon Sect scrunched up their faces as if they had known this would happen.

And the Twin Dragon Squad members….

“Continue… you say?”

“No way? He’s going to do that again?”

“Uh…. uh uh….”

Only then did they realize.

Why the disciples of the Twin Dragon Sect had resisted receiving this treatment so vehemently.

“If your bodies are healed, we should do it again. Shouldn’t we?”

Watching Patrick swing his twin swords, still in their scabbards, the Twin Dragon Squad members unconsciously flinched and stepped back.

“W-… wait a moment. Captain.”

“We have almost no internal energy left right now.”

“Let’s at least regulate our qi… no, let’s just rest for now and do it tomorrow… Kugh!”

It was a strike from Patrick that came like lightning.

Peng Mu-seong barely managed to block it.

“Ugh… uuuugh….”

Peng Mu-seong used all his strength, holding his saber with both hands.

Patrick pressed down on him with the sword in one hand and said.

“Tomorrow? Tomorrooow?”

“Ugh… wait… a moment. My bones…. My wrist bones….”

“Of course we’ll do it tomorrow too. But you see. Before that, shouldn’t we fill today’s quota?”

“It’ll… it’ll break. It’s break….”

“It’s fine. You saw how capable my wife is, didn’t you?”

“…Ah.”

That’s right.

She can fix it.

Unfortunately, she can fix it.

To the crestfallen Peng Mu-seong, Patrick grinned and said.

“You can break it as much as you want.”

“Ha… haha. Still, surely you don’t actually intend to break it….”

SNAP!

“Aaaack!”

A man who does what he says.

That was Patrick Sky Schneider.

***

He beat them up and healed them….

Then beat them up and healed them again….

Again, and again, he beat them up and healed them….

“This is hell.”

“Damn it, who was it? Who brought this upon us?”

“Which bastard…. Hey! Jaegal!”

As they rolled around in hell, they finally remembered who had created this hell.

It was all brought upon them by that fool from the Jaegal Clan.

Moyong Hye shot up, grabbed Jaegal Mun by the collar, and shook him violently.

“You bastard?! Why did you run your mouth and make us experience this living hell too? Why? Whyyy?!”

“No, I didn’t expect this either….”

“The son of the Jaegal Clan didn’t expect it? Does that even make sense? Is your head just for decoration?!”

Watching Moyong Hye grab Jaegal Mun by the collar and shake him, Patrick shook his head.

“Wow, since when did the Moyong Clan’s family customs change like that?”

Elione, who was next to him, asked.

“Are they not normally like that?”

“Originally, the Moyong Clan’s custom is to raise their daughters preciously, doting on them. So for daughters of a martial family, many of them were modest and virtuous ladies.”

“Then why is that young lady like that?”

“I wonder?”

Patrick tilted his head.

He then spoke to Moyong Hye, who was grabbing Jaegal Mun by the collar and choking him.

“Hey, little Moyong kid.”

“What! ……sir.”

Their gazes met sharply.

Patrick spoke first.

“Hey!”

“…Whaddaya want?”

“Where’s yer mother from?”

“The Hebei Peng Clan, why?”

“Ah….”

The mystery was solved.

Right.

Her mother was from the Peng Clan.

No wonder the son of the Peng Clan over there had been subtly watching.

They were probably cousins of some sort.

Anyway….

“You play along well.”

“Thank you.”

“You’ve got a temper too.”

“A bit of a temper is a basic quality for a daughter of a martial family.”

Oh, he kind of liked this girl.

“Hmm…. To keep that Yul fellow in line, it would be good if she had that much of a temper.”

“Oh? Really? Did I just score some points?”

Moyong Hye said with a bright smile.

Meanwhile, Jaegal Mun, still in her grasp, was gagging, but no one paid him any mind.

“Traditionally, the wife of the grand disciple of the Twin Dragon Sect has to have quite a temper.”

“Oh, really?”

“That’s right. But you’re very proactive. Do you like that Yul fellow that much?”

“Well, it’s not that I like him…. Yes. He’s not bad.”

Moyong Hye answered evasively with a reddened face.

It seemed she didn’t completely dislike him.

“Kuh… krrrrk….”

And Jaegal Mun fainted.

Meanwhile, Patrick understood her situation.

Her feelings for Mun Yul were one thing, but this marriage proposal was probably even more desperate for her because of her own circumstances.

‘She’s probably being pushed into an unwanted marriage. Anyway, the fate of a prestigious family’s daughter is not easy.’

As was the case with most daughters of prestigious families, they were often used as a means of political strategy.

In the case of the Moyong Clan, she would probably be married off as a daughter-in-law to the family of a local official or a high-ranking bureaucrat in Liaodong, their base.

But with that temper, could she really handle that?

‘Not a chance. Goodness…. The more I look at her, the more similarities I see.’

It was the same with the Radiant Dragon Great Master’s wife, Dang Suryeon.

As a daughter of the main family line, she was supposed to marry into a prominent family of the Sichuan Tang Clan, but she caused a scene at every marriage proposal that came her way.

As a result, she was treated as a nuisance by her family.

‘She even beat up the prefect’s son to the brink of death, right? Well, he was a guy who deserved to be beaten to death.’

Because she was like that, the Sichuan Tang Clan did not strongly oppose it when the Radiant Dragon Great Master announced he would take her as his wife.

Seeing Moyong Hye’s spirited appearance somehow reminded him of her from the past.

Patrick approached and patted Moyong Hye’s head, saying.

“Do your best. At least I won’t oppose it.”

“Really? Then….”

Moyong Hye brought her mouth to Patrick’s ear and whispered in a small voice.

“Can I knock him down?”

“I permit it.”

“Roger that.”

At that moment.

Mun Yul, who was training alone far away, was said to have felt a shiver run down his entire body.

***

About half a month.

It was a short time, but the Twin Dragon Squad members were being thoroughly tempered and strengthened by Patrick.

Mun Yul had adapted well to the changes in his body due to the Twin Dragons Heaven and Earth Primordial Heart Law.

And while Namgung Jin still seemed to need more time, he appeared to have found the starting point for creating his own Emperor Sword Form.

While Patrick was steadily strengthening his forces in this way….

“Evil-Breaking Swordsman! Is the Evil-Breaking Swordsman inside?!”

A familiar voice was heard visiting the Twin Dragon Sect.

Patrick, who spotted the guest, said.

“You are…. a beggar?”

For a moment, the beggar who heard this was choked up.

“I am Mad Dog Beggar Chu Un-hwi of the Beggar’s Gang!”

Chu Un-hwi.

The benefactor who had saved the Twin Dragon Sect before and the Successor Beggar of the Beggar’s Gang.

He had left busily after confirming that Gansu Province had stabilized.

Judging by the dozens of carrier pigeons he had received before leaving, something quite urgent must have happened.

And now he had returned to the Twin Dragon Sect.

“So what’s the matter? Beggar.”

“I said my name is Chu Un-hwi.”

“Ah, you are a beggar, right? Can’t I even call a beggar a beggar?”

“Well, you’re not wrong. But still, you should call a person by their name.”

It was a very reasonable and natural request.

But the problem was that his opponent was not the kind of person to accept such a natural request.

“Why do you have to be so picky about everything? Huh?”

“……”

“You can just live life roughly.”

“……”

If you’re going to live life so roughly, you be the beggar.

To Chu Un-hwi’s gaze, Patrick said with a face of steel.

“What? Did I say something wrong?”

“If I call you a personality-shattered dog mess, would that be wrong?”

“Uh….”

“Then since that’s the truth, is it okay if I call you that?”

“That’s uh uh….”

He was at a loss for words.

Because somehow, it strangely made sense.

‘This bastard, a beggar daring to use logic. As if he’s from the Tower of Truth….’

In the midst of all this, Patrick couldn’t deny that he was a dog mess.

And the flow of the conversation was also strangely familiar.

“More importantly, this is urgent.”

“Hmm? What’s going on all of a sudden?”

“I’ve brought an official order from the Alliance, so check it.”

Patrick took the note that Chu Un-hwi pulled from his robes and checked it.

And then….

“Is this for real?”

“It is. We must move as quickly as possible.”

“I suppose we must.”

Patrick spoke to Sanghun, who was next to him.

“Summon all the Twin Dragon Squad members at once.”

“Yes, Bong-gong.”
