SYM 133

Cheong-un didn’t pull out after ejaculating, remaining still. Thanks to that, Eun-hyeon’s insides were filled with what Cheong-un had released.

Cheong-un’s volume was enormous each time he came, leaving Eun-hyeon feeling bloated.

“Hngh, Cheong-un. This…”

Eun-hyeon subtly tried to wiggle his body to remove Cheong-un’s cock blocking the hole, but Cheong-un firmly grasped Eun-hyeon’s hips.

“Ugh. This…”

“I don’t want to pull out. Master’s insides feel warmer and more comforting today, so I want to stay like this.”

With those words, Cheong-un thrust himself deeper inside.

Cheong-un’s breath made Eun-hyeon’s earlobes burn. He hadn’t expected it to end with just one time, but today he was unusually persistent.

The lovemaking continued relentlessly until Eun-hyeon lost consciousness. When Eun-hyeon opened his eyes, it was almost dusk.

“Have you woken up?”

“Ugh.”

As Eun-hyeon sat up in bed, Cheong-un approached and massaged his shoulders.

“I’m fine.”

Even after such intense lovemaking that would have been unimaginable in the past, he didn’t feel as exhausted anymore.

Just as Eun-hyeon lightly tapped Cheong-un’s hand to signify he was okay, Cheong-un asked, “Master, do you feel a bit better now?”

“Huh?”

Eun-hyeon blinked, wondering what he meant. Cheong-un smiled faintly and sat opposite Eun-hyeon.

“You’ve been in a bad mood lately.”

“……..”

Eun-hyeon bit his lip slightly.

He had tried not to show it, but had he already noticed?

His Sister’s birthday was around this time. As the weather grew hotter, thoughts of his Sister kept surging up.

“I don’t need anything else in this world. Can’t you be satisfied with just me, Master?”

Eun-hyeon was speechless at Cheong-un’s words.

Looking into Cheong-un’s eyes, Eun-hyeon sighed softly.

“Cheong-un. Me too. I only need you too.”

“I know there are things you haven’t told me, Master. Like where you originally came from, and what kind of life you lived there.”

“Cheong-un…”

Cheong-un had learned about Eun-hyeon coming from another world through the Hongbaek Sect incident.

He had many questions, but he decided not to ask until his Master spoke of his own accord.

However, whenever he saw an inexplicable sadness on his Master’s face, anxiety would surge up.

“Master. Whenever you feel ready, please tell me your story.”

“…It’s nothing much. I’m just an ordinary person.”

“I want to hear that ordinary story. You know all of my stories, don’t you?”

At Cheong-un’s words, Eun-hyeon hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth.

“The place I came from was a completely different world from here. It was a world where Martial Arts and such were only found in books.”

Eun-hyeon watched Cheong-un’s expression, wondering how he would react to his words. But seeing Cheong-un’s expression, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

Cheong-un’s eyes were shining as he looked at him, just like when he was a child.

“It’s hard to believe, but in our world, we use tools to fly in the sky and run on the ground instead of Inner energy or Martial Arts. I was a very ordinary kid there, until my parents died in an accident. After that, it was just me and my Sister.”

Sensing that Eun-hyeon’s story would be long, Cheong-un quickly poured tea and offered it to Eun-hyeon.

Eun-hyeon moistened his throat with the tea.

Once he started talking, the words came out easily. Why hadn’t he been able to say this until now?

“While I was living here for the first time, I was unconscious in that world. Everyone said there was no hope and told her to give up, but my Sister didn’t give up and stayed by my side. She even managed to cover the enormous hospital bills. When I found out about that later, I felt so sorry and grateful to my Sister. While my Sister was struggling, I was actually living quite happily here, even though it was tough. I even met you, Cheong-un. That’s why I felt even more sorry to my Sister.”

The more Eun-hyeon told Cheong-un his story, the more he felt a knot in his heart slowly unraveling.

“Your Sister must be a very strong-willed person.”

“Of course, my Sister was my parent, my Sister, and my only family. Until you, Cheong-un, came into my life.”

“Is your Sister married?”

“Yes. She met a man as good as she is.”

“Then does Master have a niece or nephew?”

“Yes. Her name is Haneul, and she’s as fast as a flying squirrel. Her stamina is so good that all the adults were exhausted and collapsed, but she was still asking to play more.”

“Oh my. If I were there, I would have played with her as much as she wanted. Since she’s young, I could even give her a cleansing of marrow and tendons…”

Eun-hyeon burst into laughter at the mention of cleansing of marrow and tendons.

“I told you, there’s no Martial Arts where I live. Cleansing of marrow and tendons for Haneul? How much stronger would she become then? It’s scary just thinking about it.”

“From what you’ve told me, Master, it seems that the world you were in didn’t need to cultivate Martial Arts. There were means to fly in the sky and run on the ground without having to train. There was no need to protect oneself like in the Martial World.”

“…I’ve never thought of it that way, but that could be true.”

“But that doesn’t mean Martial Arts wouldn’t be powerful. If you gave your niece a cleansing of marrow and tendons and taught her Martial Arts, wouldn’t she become someone that no one in a world without Martial Arts could defeat?”

“That’s possible…”

“Good. If I ever meet your niece, I will personally give her a cleansing of marrow and tendons. She’s your niece, so she can’t go around getting beaten up.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Eun-hyeon burst into laughter.

Even after hearing his unbelievable story, he was talking about giving Haneul a cleansing of marrow and tendons as if it were nothing.

“…Well, if we live long enough, there might be a day when we meet again.”

He said the words, but he himself didn’t believe them.

His heart felt heavy. But he didn’t want to show tears in front of Cheong-un. Just as Eun-hyeon controlled his emotions and bit his lip tightly, Cheong-un said, “Master. If you don’t give up, you will definitely meet them again. Just like I was able to meet you again.”

Cheong-un placed something in Eun-hyeon’s hand.

When Eun-hyeon opened his hand, it was a small necklace made of carved jade.

“This is…”

“Do you remember? You bought this for me a long time ago.”

“Ah, yes. I remember now. He was a particularly eloquent merchant.”

Eun-hyeon recalled the memory and looked at the jade necklace in his hand.

The round jade necklace wasn’t even a high-quality item. He never thought Cheong-un would have kept it until now.

“Do you remember what you told me when you gave me this? I was having nightmares all the time, so you put this around my neck and said it would eat away the nightmares and grant wishes.”

“…Did I say that?”

He didn’t remember saying those words, but he remembered the day he bought the necklace.

Cheong-un, who usually didn’t show interest in anything, kept glancing at the necklaces being sold in the market that day.

It was the first thing the child had ever shown interest in, so he thought he should buy it even if the merchant overcharged him.

“Master. This necklace has granted my wish, so now it’s your turn.”

“…My turn?”

“It will eat away your anxieties and nightmares and grant your wishes. Here, put it around your neck.”

Eun-hyeon couldn’t help but laugh as he watched Cheong-un put the necklace around his neck himself.

Eun-hyeon touched the jade around his neck with his hand. It felt strange to wear the necklace that still held Cheong-un’s warmth.

“Master, but no matter how much you want to see your family, you can’t go alone.”

“Huh?”

“I will follow you wherever you go.”

“…Even though I can’t use Martial Arts there, and everything is different from what you know? You’d still give up everything here and come with me?”

At Eun-hyeon’s words, Cheong-un chuckled.

“You still don’t know this disciple very well, Master. All I need is you, Master. Nothing I’ve achieved here can replace you.”

“…The Demonic Sect members who worship you like a god would be sad to hear that.”

Something tickled in his heart at the Heavenly Demon’s words, who said he could abandon the Demonic Sect at any time.

“Okay. When I make a wish, I’ll wish for that. If I go, I’ll wish to go with you, Cheong-un.”

“Perfect.”

Cheong-un smiled and kissed Eun-hyeon’s forehead.

That night, Eun-hyeon didn’t take off the jade necklace Cheong-un had given him until he fell asleep in Cheong-un’s arms.
