...The Legend Of Crazy Demon's...
.......
.......
.......
The calm dawn.
I was awakened by the sound of crows and birds chirping.
I woke up in a familiar place.
Is this my old room?. Wait, am I dreaming?. I tried to blink my eyes many times but what I saw remained the same.
This is my bathroom right behind my family's restaurant. The Mioshan restaurant is the name, a restaurant that has been passed down for 3 generations.
"But. Why am I here?"
Suddenly I remembered the words of the mysterious old Grandfather.
'This is your last chance, this is the best thing I can do and the best gift you can receive.'
Wait, does he mean last chance and the best gift is sending me back to the past!?
"Huh? Wait, I'm really back in time?"
Come to think of it, my body condition is also much better.
I only realized one thing, my left hand that was previously cut off I could feel again. However, it seemed like the wound on my face did not disappear, I felt a sting as if someone had just punched me.
When I opened the room door to find out what had happened, I was greeted by the sight of Mioshan's very messy restaurant.
Considering the old Grandfather's words and where I am now, then the current 'present' is definitely my 'past.
I was so confused that I did not realize that the current situation was a calamity or a blessing.
"But what the hell is this?"
Why is this restaurant so messy.
I tried to get out of the restaurant when I opened the door. I watched the beautiful scenery, saw the Sun begin to appear on the ridge. I stared at this scene until the rising sun began to spread its light vaguely into the restaurant.
It's been a long time since I've felt this peace.
But it was a little disappointing.
Why should it be at this point in the past?
I couldn't find my parents at home then, nor in his room.
Wouldn't it be nice to go back in time and see my parents again.
My mood became a little bad when I remembered my father's death from a mysterious illness, and after 4 months my mother followed him due to excessive depression.
There was nothing I could do to overcome this sudden emotional turmoil.
While looking at the scene outside the restaurant for a long time, my right eye throbbed.
It feels like bruising.
I immediately checked it in the mirror, after seeing the mirror I saw a scene that was quite surprising. The scar I had gotten on the face during the Demon Sect's chase had disappeared from my face, However, my right eye was bruised and bluish, and my lips were torn as if I had just been punched.
'When was I beaten like this?'
the face I see today is my face when I was about 18-20 years old.
In the past I was beaten up a lot, it made me so confused what happened that caused my right eye to hurt. The moment I saw the reflection of my face in the mirror after a while, the memories of the past came back.
The place I am standing right now is Namgong prefecture, There are no sects or prominent noble families residing in this place, but this is a place where Orthodox and Unorthodox factions clash with each other.
By the time I started to be known by the nickname Crazy Demon, this place had sunk into ruin.
Looking at the atmosphere that was still very quiet, and also still very early this morning, I thought people were still asleep, therefore I shouted.
"I have returned! Goddamnit!"
But a man in one of the houses near my restaurant shouted in reply.
"Shut up! You crazy bastard! If you are drunk, go home. Ugh, fuck."
"You awake? Go back to sleep."
•••
Am I lucky that I fought with the demon sect or met the mysterious old Grandfather?
It was probably a combination of luck and not letting the Demon Sect do what they wanted as they pleased anymore.
i smile.
"It's good to be back."
I imagined how strong I could increase this time, as I returned to the past with my memories of being a Crazy Demon. I could learn martial arts a few years sooner.
Before I became Crazy Demon I was always ignored, humiliated, bullied and beaten because I was just a servant.
But now it won't happen again.
After all, this servant once grew into a man who dared to wreak havoc in the Murim Alliance and the Demon Sect.
I decided to take a walk around Namgong Prefecture to refresh my memory.
The forgotten memories slowly returned each time my eyes were fixed on various parts of the familiar path.
Dirty alley, fishy smell from the fish shop, close the cauldron in front of the dumpling restaurant, dumpling,
The usual sights and smells of the streets continue to bring back to the memories of the past. Same with the emotions that come back.
While walking around the alley, I often licked and bit my lips for smelling the delicious aroma of the food stall.
But right now I don't have any money.
I may be a young food shop owner, but I have to live a life like a beggar to make ends meet. Because ever since my parents died, the income from our family food stall has dwindled.
•••
Shit, I now remember why I got a cut on my face right now.
A customer once asked me what I would do with all my hard work.
Hearing that question I kept me quiet for a while.
I worked desperately because I was an orphan, if I didn't work hard, how could I survive, I thought at the time.
I only answered jokingly at that moment.
I said, the reason I worked hard was because I wanted to save money to listen to Yuan Li's music game from the Ninshan brothel.
I swear, it was a joke.
As I expected, people laughed, but the answer I made jokingly started to spread.
But the rumors are getting more and more absurd. The phrase "I want to listen to a music game" suddenly changed to "I want to sleep with Yuan Li."
Isn't that annoying?
These rumors spread like wildfire throughout Namgong Prefecture, but no one else mentioned it as a joke.
'I heard he saved up all his money to fuck Yuan Li'
'Really pervert. No wonder he saved so carefully.'
'Junk.'
'But the man must know his place. Although Yuan Li lived in a brothel, she was not a prostitute'
Thinking about it still pisses me off.
"Gosh, it's just a joke, you bastard. Ughhhh..."
Isn't that a silly and interesting story?
The words I said jokingly as the reason I worked hard spread throughout Namgong Prefecture and suddenly became the top topic of conversation.
I stopped for a while at the Ninshan brothel, which was filled with various lanterns of different colors.
Memories of the past filled my mind like the light of that lantern.
After hearing the rumor that an errand boy wanted to fuck Yuan Li, the guard of the Ninshan brothel came to the tavern to make fun of me, but because my expression was so stiff, I was suddenly hit in the face and kicked by them.
Maybe the reason is not just that
They might be angry that I thought of Yuan Li as a prostitute.
Judging from the condition of my face, it happened just a few days ago.
It happened for so long, so I don't want to think about it, but since I'm now back in time, I have no choice but to continue pondering about it.
Back then, my face hardened as they brought Yuan Li to insult me on purpose.
How can I express the frustration and shame of that moment?
It didn't matter to them whether it was a joke or the truth.
They were just not happy that a servant was looking at the most beautiful woman in the Ninshan brothel.
It was the first time I saw Yuan Li
She was extremely beautiful, but there was nothing more embarrassing than seeing the face of a woman filled with anger and humiliation.
As I remember this emotion, I start to smile.
Since they humiliated me in front of the crowd, pocket would visit the Ninshan brothel at night when it was most crowded.
I had to turn that 'rumor' back into a 'joke.'
I looked at the Ninshan brothel for a long time and turned around when a man was speaking to me.
"Do you want to burn down Ninshan's brothel, to avenge you? "
