Chronicles Of The Martial God's Return

Chapter 2

Episode 2

“Hmm...”

Dan Woo-hyeon swallowed his moans as he placed Hwa So-mi, who was sleeping soundly, by the bonfire late at night. When I thought about taking her to live with her, I first needed a place to stay.

That means you have to build a house.

When I thought about building a house, I became a little confused about where to start.

I already had the shape of a house in my head. Since I was young, I thought that I would like to live in a place like this when I settle down.

It was a simple dream I had since childhood.

You build it with your own hands.

Just thinking about it made my heart race.

First, I looked around.

Although it is a house for one adult and two children, the children need space to run around and play, so shouldn’t it be a little wider?

Moreover, since it was in the mountains with few people, there was no need to make it narrow.

Then the first thing to be built was to build a house.

The surrounding area was full of bushes, trees, and rocks. It was also quite a task to remove these one by one.

It will take more than 15 days for dozens of workers to rush in and clear the ground.

Dan Woo-hyeon picked up a sword that had not been taken out until now, wrapped in an old cloth.

I grabbed it and swung it sideways.

Saaagh!

A strange force flew in, and for an instant, the surroundings flashed in a circle.

Suddenly the wind blew and soon calmed down.

Damn it!

The situation that soon unfolded before my eyes was surprising. The trees, which were crowded together, were passed over with their bases cut off.

The rocks were shattered and the rough ground became level.

Wherever the bushes went, they don’t even exist.

In one moment, dozens of workers performed a miracle that could be done by working for more than 15 days in one go.

Cutting down trees, pulverizing rocks, and disappearing bushes with a single sword was never a technique that could be carried out just because one was good at controlling internal forces.

“Mmm!

Hwa So-mi groaned and tried to open her eyes at the sudden loud sound. The sound of numerous trees falling at once was as loud as a thunderstorm.

But I collapsed again and fell asleep.

This is because Dan Woo-hyeon pointed out the blood transfusion.

“It would be better to sleep for a while.”

It was clear that if a scene like this was shown, the gods and all would make a fuss.

In particular, Dan Woo-hyeon hated hearing the word immortal.

“Next, we have to cut down the trees to build the pillars.”

The basis of any house is wood. Since it is a form of building a pillar and a wall on top of it, making wood is a priority.

Chack chack chack-!

As I had pictured in my mind, I aimed the knife at the tree. After simply swinging it a few times, wood suitable for its role began to be created one by one. If the carpenter nearby had seen this scene, a skit would have ensued where he would kneel down and beg to be accepted as his master disciple.

Before we knew it, all the trees had been cut down.

Now that the lumber needed to build the house had been completed, all that was left was to assemble it one by one.

Dan Woo-hyeon moved his body, thinking about the role of the wood he had cut. The pillars were driven into the ground and the building was raised step by step. So many pieces of wood were suddenly turning into one house.

“It’s okay, but it’s a little big...” When I erected the pillar, it was quite big. Even compared to most manors, it was not something to be upset about. If you think about what Kankan divided up, there were quite a lot of rooms.

Well, when I was young, I thought about a house that could accommodate dozens of people, so it was natural that I would do that.

The house itself was too big for two people to live in.

‘Should I cut it off a little?’ But then he shook his head.

The reason was that no matter how big it was, it would be as big as the emperor’s old palace.

Next you have to build a wall. In general, walls are also built by fitting wood together. But all the wood had already been used to build the framework.

It’s not like making wood again, but it’s no fun.

“They say that if you build a house with red clay, it will be very warm!”

Suddenly, the words of a child who was part of the same beggar gang as a child came to mind.

It is said that if you build a wall using red clay, it will block the wind well and keep you quite warm in the winter.

No, there isn’t.

The manor must have a wall.

Moreover, it was written by Dan Woo-hyeon himself. It’s okay if it’s not perfect.

Who is he? Isn’t he someone who was praised as a military god?

He had a personality that required perfection in whatever he did to satisfy his instincts.

Dan Woo-hyeon, who was looking at the cliff, swung his sword armor.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!

A huge sound was heard that shook the heavens and the earth.

Hwa So-mi had a silent, stunned expression. A fence has been created that did not exist until a day ago. It completely surrounded the house and was quite high.

It was so bad that you couldn’t even see the inside from the outside.

When on earth did this come about?

“The fence....”

“It was there originally.”

“yes?”

“It was there originally.”

“I... I didn’t say anything.”

Hwa So-mi laughed awkwardly. I’m not sure if he’s convinced or not, but it looks like he’s just trying to pass it off. But soon, I looked around the house and let out a small sigh.

“Why are you doing that?”

“That’s it, uncle. “Don’t you feel a bit empty?”

There is a small village quite far from Dongdong Lake. The villagers there wandered around and held a rite, which was none other than a rite to ask the old pine tree, who had been protecting the village for a long time, to take good care of them this year.

There is a legend that the old pine was planted by one of the Eight Immortals a long time ago, and it is said to ward off bad luck and help the village develop greatly.

The pine tree was quite large.

It was a tree that had been standing there for over a thousand years, so what can I say about its grandeur? The pine tree was showing its majesty by spreading its huge branches in all directions, as if protecting the village.

Early in the morning, one of the village elders walked toward an old pine tree for a walk. It was his routine since childhood to wish Nosong a good day every morning.

but.

“omg?!”

There wasn’t.

The old pine tree that was supposed to be protecting the spot was nowhere to be seen. There were traces of someone digging around, and not a single stem remained in the dug-up ground.

The old man foamed on the spot

.

* * *

“Wow... wow, it wasn’t there yesterday...”

“There was.”

“...yes.”

After cutting off Hwa So-mi’s words, Dan Woo-hyeon looked around with a satisfied expression.

A large manor was created. Even if you compare it to the manors in Agyang, it will never be inferior.

In the vacant lot, a 1,000-year-old pine tree was showing its majesty with its stems outstretched, and stones with colorful shapes and colors that I didn’t know where they came from were scattered everywhere.

I was finally satisfied now that I had even dug a large pond on one side.

” haha.”

I started laughing without realizing it.

In fact, there is still a lot of work to be done. Not only the beds but also all the furniture that can be used must be made one by one. Moreover, since I can’t starve my child, I have to go fishing.

Now that I have something to do, I feel like my empty mind is being filled.

busy.

How long has it been since you felt this pleasant busyness?

It seems rewarding even if you don’t learn martial arts.

“But...”

“Shh, don’t say anything.”

Dan Woo-hyeon made Hwa So-mi keep her mouth shut.

Every time a sound comes out of this child’s mouth, a scream will surely erupt from somewhere.
