A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 180 – Tracks
"So where are you looking for someone? Does it have anything to do with that group heading north?" ask the white eyes.
Sung Han lowered his stiffened and slightly pale face. Unmistakably, it must be Kay Su Tek who had somehow inherited the Moon Eclipse Sword. And who had no power from where, seemed to have awakened the curse. They have to kill each other!
Is the curse real? Until now Sung Han had always been doubtful of the truth of the curse. He considers it mere superstition. But gradually, and to this day, he seems to have begun to believe. Ever since the day that she almost clashed with Kay Su Tek at the new chairman's election venue, she has believed in the curse. He and Kay Su Tek will kill each other! But as much as possible he wants to prevent.
Seeing the silent Sung Han, these three people became astonished and confused. The brewpub closest to Sung Han touched the young man's shoulder and shook it.
"Buddy..."
Sung Han gasped in shock and realized. He then remembered that he was currently looking for information. And he was even daydreaming. He shook his head several times to cast out unpleasant shadows. After that, he answered the white-eyed question.
"Yes, I'm looking for someone. And I'm sure it's true that he's in that entourage."
The three frowned, "You're so sure. So who is that person exactly?" the hag asked.
Instead of answering, Sung Han got up from his seat. He shook his head, "I'm sorry I couldn't tell anyone about this. Thank you for your time and forgive my carelessness if it interferes with your leisure time. I'll go first."
After taking his leave Sung Han immediately went on his way. This time he knew which way to go, which was north. To the Golden Goa whose horror and awesomeness he had even heard since he was a child.
Recalling that story, a little bit of horror was also his heart. But he was forced to keep stepping to meet Kay Su Tek. Restraining him from acting any further, and stopping his foolish act of leading the heretics.
He hurriedly walked out of the village was watched by some citizens who were looking tensely. Understand this because yesterday this village has the arrival of a group of heretical warriors. Of course they thought Sung Han belonged to their group.
Sung Han did not care about that and continued to step wide out of the village. But just coming out, there was a noise from the direction of the village followed by terrible screams.
Sung Han frowned, he stopped his steps and looked back attentively. After a long time of observation, it seemed that the voices came from where he had been conversing with the three middle-aged people! Sung Han's eyes widened, then as fast as lightning his body darted through the roofs of the houses to reach the place earlier.
Upon arriving there he stood with a pale face, his eyes widened as if he could come out at any time.
"When was this done? Who did it?" he muttered that he did not get an answer because the question was directed to himself.
From the top of the roof of the house that is the place of his footing at this time, can be seen clearly by the crowd of people who shrouded one three corpses. The three corpses belonged to none other than the three people who had spoken to him!
The citizens shrouded and panicked, but no one dared to come near out of fear.
The condition of the bodies is terrible and appalling. Their heads were detached with bodies torn apart. I don't know who did that. What is clear, must be a shrewd man who was able to kill the three warriors in a crowded place.
"It must be the young man who killed them!! I saw that he was talking to the three of them!" exclaims a man of fifty years. With a radiant face and a trembling voice he shouted so.
Sung Han held back his anger, why had he always been a scapegoat? But he felt astonished and a little relieved when there was a young man defending him.
"Not him!! From the beginning until he left I saw from inside my stall. And the young man is gone! The one who killed him was a black shadow!"
"Black heaven?!"
"Western light?!"
Sung Han was concerned, but his attention was immediately drawn to the killer. The black shadow he said, and he was sure it was definitely not a demon, but rather a clever man who had the science of lightening a great body. As well as intelligence that is not nuts so it is able to kill three people in an instant.
Sung Han scanned around to look for the killer, it must not have gone far, he thought. But after some time he swept his gaze, did not see the figure of the "black shadow" at all. Finally he took a breath and chose to continue the journey. But this time it was obviously more careful because it was possible that a black shadow had already lurked him from the beginning to the end. And maybe the next target is himself.
...****************...
In a moment, Sung Han was able to calm his heart about the event. His mind refocused on looking for Kay Su Tek.
He ran straight north, though he did not know exactly where the legendary Golden Goa was. Let it be near there he'll ask people. Her thought.
When he arrived at a small forest covered with tall trees but few branches, Sung Han slowed down. In addition to saving energy, also to enjoy the surrounding scenery is quite beautiful with sparkling white stones exposed to sunlight.
But suddenly he stopped and his body was instantly silent like a statue. No wriggling at all except the fluttering of hair and the tip of the robe. His eyes were looking down.
Until long he stood up with that strange attitude, there was a quarter of an hour and during that time he did not move at all at the tip of a finger.
Suddenly, a human voice sounded.
"Indeed admirable, a very alert young figure. It's just a small mistake you're able to feel and you're ready. Great..great...."
The voice was raspy wet and according to Sung Han's estimation, the owner of the voice was a grandfather. He widened his eyes and secretly the profound energy was already flowing throughout the body. Ready to face all possibilities.
There was only silence back, and Sung Han remained lowered. This time longer, about half an hour after the voice sounded, Sung Han still did not make a move.
However, suddenly Sung Han's hands clenched and he had already put the horses together. This movement was so fast that it was even faster than the blink of an eye. His clenched right hand was placed on the right side of his face.
"Hmm.." he snorted and coincided with that.
"Desss!!"
There was a foot that hit very hard on Sung Han's right arm. But amazingly, this young man's body did not move and was still firmly standing on the ground. The dark assailant widened his eyes.
Sung Han did not counterattack, he just looked with a sharp glare piercing towards the pair of old eyes. The old man trembled slightly and he immediately jumped far away with Sung Han's hand used as a pedestal.
After salting twice in the air, he landed four spears away from Sung Han. Looking at it with sharp eyes.
"Hemm.you're too careless old man. The little twigs you accidentally stepped on were enough to tickle my ears." Sung Han said still in his horses. Then he said again after putting the horses on the attack. "Who are you?"
The grandfather who was none other than the Black Swallow Bird smiled. Inwardly he had to acknowledge Sung Han's superiority and he was in awe.
"People call me, Black Swallow Bird. I came to talk to you, just think of that one kick as a sign of friendship."
