Once ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍they had all assembled, Patrick opened his mouth with an unusually serious expression.

“I ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍will now relay information that just came in from the Murim Alliance. The Hwangbo Clan of Shandong has declared war on the Jaegal Clan.”

At ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍that, everyone’s expression stirred.

Among ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍them, Jaegal Mun’s face was the most grave.

“The ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍Hwangbo Clan? Why all of a sudden?”

The Hwangbo Clan was not part of the Five Great Families, but it was still a place that claimed to be of the Orthodox Faction.

At least within Shandong, it boasted the second-greatest power after the Jaegal Clan.

For such a place to suddenly declare war on the Jaegal Clan?

Without any reason?

Patrick revealed additional information to the confused Jaegal Mun.

“It seems a new clan head has been inaugurated in the Hwangbo Clan. His name is Hwangbo Wicheon. Does anyone know him?”

“Hwangbo Wicheon?!”

“Surely not that Hwangbo Wicheon?”

Judging by their reactions, it seemed they knew him.

Patrick looked at Jaegal Mun and waited for an answer.

Then….

“He is a figure who was expelled from the Hwangbo Clan 40 years ago. He was the older brother of the current clan head, Hwangbo Yeoryang.”

“He was the older brother but had his position taken by his younger brother.”

“He was the kind of person who deserved it.”

Jaegal Mun briefly explained about Hwangbo Wicheon.

He was the eldest son who had been raised with the full expectations of the Hwangbo Clan, born with outstanding qualities.

However, his personality was violent and arrogant, and he caused trouble here and there from a young age.

Then, around the age of thirty, he caused a major incident.

He had caused a ruckus in a brothel, indiscriminately beating commoners to death for the reason that they didn’t recognize him.

The number of victims was over 100.

It wasn’t an Unorthodox figure, but an Orthodox figure who had caused a bloodbath.

The Hwangbo Clan could no longer protect him and expelled him from the family after crippling his martial arts.

After that, he was never heard from again.

But….

“According to the report, Hwangbo Wicheon defeated the current clan head, Hwangbo Yeoryang, one-on-one and seized the position of clan head.”

“That’s absurd….”

Jaegal Mun couldn’t understand.

Hwangbo Yeoryang, the head of the Hwangbo Clan, was the best fist user in Shandong and a strong man whom even the Jaegal Clan would have difficulty finding someone to defeat in a one-on-one fight.

To say that a man whose martial arts had been crippled had appeared after several decades and defeated such a Hwangbo Yeoryang?

Did that make sense?

“It is something I cannot understand with my common sense.”

“Right. In that case, we’ll have to go and see for ourselves.”

Patrick nodded.

The information Chu Un-hwi had delivered did not provide more detailed circumstances.

There was nothing to do now but go to the scene, grasp the situation, and respond.

“This is the Twin Dragon Squad’s first mission. We will go to Shandong, save the Jaegal Clan, and resolve this dispute.”

As Patrick spoke, all the members of the Twin Dragon Squad placed a fist on one side of their chests and answered powerfully.

“Charge!”

“Charge!”

The members’ faces were a mix of excitement and tension.

Patrick gave them a grin and said.

“Keep your wits about you and follow me. You brats.”

The first deployment of the Twin Dragon Squad was decided.

***

Immediately after ordering the members to prepare for deployment, Patrick first had to organize the sect’s internal affairs.

An enemy could attack again while he was gone this time as well.

‘I thought Oliver and Sanson would be enough, but that wasn’t the case.’

On the continent of Pangemonia, a 7-star knight was considered a national power, but in Jianghu, they weren’t that rare.

“I knew that in my head, but tsk.”

It was a failure brought on by his own carelessness.

If it weren’t for the protection of the World Tree and the chance intervention of the Beggar’s Gang hero, Chu Un-hwi, there would have been casualties in the Twin Dragon Sect.

He could not make such a mistake again.

“The conclusion is that we just need to strengthen our forces more.”

“Yes, Master.”

“Draw the magic circle. I need to summon some people.”

“I understand.”

Until now, he had lived with a generous amount of causality just in case.

But on second thought, that too was a form of carelessness.

‘What’s so special about this causality that I’ve been hoarding it like a treasure? I should just use it.’

He had recently earned a decent amount of causality by catching three of the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor’s disciples.

[Causality Held: 25,500]

This was enough.

When Persona finished drawing the necessary magic circle, Patrick stepped onto it.

And the command window appeared before his eyes again.

[Summon a random person from the continent of Pangemonia? 9,000 causality will be consumed as compensation.]

“That’s damn expensive.”

But it couldn’t be helped.

Patrick made his decision without hesitation.

“I’ll do it.”

At that, a portal opened in the air, and someone slowly began to emerge from within.

‘Actually, as long as whoever comes out has some combat power, it’s fine.’

Of course, the world was full of untrustworthy people, but hadn’t he already drawn a dud like Oliver?

Sanson and Storm Spear, who were summoned after him, were being utilized as quite useful forces.

So this time, please let it be someone good….

“Uhahaha. Did you call for me? Broth-… Kuwek!”

A huge green giant, halfway out of the gate, took a hit to the jaw and soared spectacularly into the air.

The sight of the massive giant, which seemed to be well over three times the size of a normal adult, flying into the sky was quite a spectacle.

“Damn it, that bastard was still left.”

THUD!

The heavy giant that had flown high into the air came down to the ground.

The fact that it landed on its two feet in the process showed that its resilience had improved quite a bit.

“Uhahaha. Brother. To express your joy at seeing me after a long time like this. As expected, you are fiery.”

“Kuuugh…. So you came?”

What could he do about what had already come out?

Although he was a younger brother whose appearance and personality were all difficult to handle, he couldn’t do anything about the impression he had already made.

Above all….

“Did you evolve again?”

“Yes. The mages called me a General Orc.”

“Hmmmm….”

He had gotten stronger.

The Tutan of the past was only a little stronger than Sanson.

But the current Tutan was….

‘This bastard might be on par with the Imperial Sword Saint.’

It wasn’t just his body that had gotten bigger.

The fighting spirit overflowing from his body was no joke.

Although there were many things that bothered him, in terms of the original goal of gaining strong combat power, it was a perfect score.

“Good. Then let’s continue.”

Looking at the remaining causality, it seemed he could summon at least one more person.

As Patrick stepped onto the magic circle again, the command window appeared once more.

[Summon a random person from the continent of Pangemonia? 12,000 casualties will be consumed as compensation.]

As expected, the amount of causality had risen again.

For a moment, he thought about stopping now, but….

“Damn it, since when did I live thinking about the consequences?”

“I don’t think that’s something to be proud of.”

“I am Patrick Schneider. A man who sees things through to the end once he starts.”

“No matter how I think about it, that doesn’t seem like a good thing.”

“Anyway, let’s go!”

Regardless of what his disciple said from the side, Patrick’s will was firm.

A portal opened in the air once more, and a figure slowly emerged from within.

Judging by the silhouette, it didn’t seem to be an Orc this time.

It was probably a human, and….

“Uh uh… uh…?”

“Finally.”

“……”

“We meet again.”

“Senior honey?”

In any case, she had appeared in this Jianghu.

Isabella Black Schneider.

Another one of Patrick’s wives had appeared.

Isabella, who had fully revealed herself.

She turned her head from side to side, looked around, and said.

“Is this your hometown?”

“That’s… right?”

“You seem to like it?”

“Maybe… so?”

A sense of unease began to creep into Patrick.

And….

“So much so that you’ve been cooped up here for years and have forgotten your family.”

“……”

Ah, I’m screwed.

“Look, Isabella, you know. That’s….”

“I’ll ask you one thing.”

Isabella sent a sharp gaze toward Patrick and said.

“How many more years are you going to be here?”

“……”

“Is there no set time?”

Patrick broke out in a cold sweat.

Yes.

To be honest, it was something to be sorry to his family for.

He had come here because he had lingering attachments to settle and things to do in this world, but on the other hand, he had also enjoyed his time in Jianghu.

It would be a lie to say that he hadn’t enjoyed this life of rebuilding his sect, raising disciples, and roaming Jianghu.

But while Patrick was doing that, his family was waiting for him with anxious hearts on the continent of Pangemonia.

“……”

Isabella’s gaze as she stared at him was stern.

So much so that even the great Patrick found it hard to look away.

“I’m sorry, you’ll have to wait a little longer.”

“……”

“I’m really sorry.”

At Patrick’s apology, Isabella let out a deep sigh and said.

“It’s not like you’d listen even if I told you to.”

“……”

“So I’ll help you. I’ve been preparing for this day, so I’ll help you with all my strength.”

“…Sorry.”

What could Patrick say?

He was just grateful and sorry to her for understanding him.

***

There were some twists and turns, but Patrick had gained two more powerful allies.

Tutan was a given, and Isabella was also a considerable force.

Her swordsmanship, by Jianghu standards, was somewhere between first-rate and peak.

However, she had been training as a Magic Swordsman at the Tower of Truth for the past few years.

And she had talent in that area.

By the time Patrick left the Schneider Duchy, she had already received and was handling two Soul Weapons.

Considering the versatility of a Magic Swordsman, her power was not to be judged purely by her martial prowess alone.

Having gained such powerful allies, Patrick first introduced the two to everyone.

“Bong-gong’s sworn brother and wife?”

“That’s right.”

“These people?”

Mun Yul’s mouth fell open.

Of course, he already knew that the Bong-gong was a royal from a distant foreign land.

He had doubted it, but on second thought, with that temper, if he wasn’t of high birth, where would he have met and married a peerless beauty like Lady Elione?

So he had no choice but to believe it.

But….

“This person is also your wife?”

Ebony-black hair and fair skin.

In some ways, she resembled his senior sister, but she was a beauty with a much colder impression.

She had almost no expression and didn’t even glance their way.

“I just arrived today. My name is Isabella.”

“Yes. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I am Mun Yul, the grand disciple of the Twin Dragon Sect.”

“……”

Isabella glanced at Mun Yul, then simply ignored him and turned her head away.

‘What’s this? Am I disliked or something?’

Just then, a spirited voice interjected.

“Hahaha. Brother. Is this the child you are raising?”

“…Uh. Look.”

“He’s small in stature, but he’s solid, which is good. Let’s have a bout later.”

Watching the boisterously speaking Tutan, Mun Yul’s mouth hung open.

Yes.

In fact, this person(?) was more surprising than the new Lady next to him.

A massive body that was easily more than three times the size of a normal person.

Green skin covering his entire body.

Sharp, protruding canines.

Yellow eyes.

No matter how you looked at it, this was not the appearance of a human.

At first, he had wondered if he was some kind of monster.

Not only Mun Yul, but the others watching from behind were also having similar thoughts, unable to take their eyes off Tutan.

Just then….

“His name is Tutan. And he’s not the kind of monster you’re thinking of, so don’t worry.”

At Patrick’s words, Go Seok-hyeon cautiously spoke.

“Bong-gong. Then, as for your sworn brother… why is his appearance like that?”

At Go Seok-hyeon’s words, Patrick puffed out his chest proudly and said.

“It’s a side effect of Qi Deviation.”

“…Pardon?”

“He didn’t originally look like this, but due to the nature of the martial art he practices, his body is gradually changing.”

“Aaaah….”

“As a result, he has become what he is now.”

“I-… I see.”

If that was the case, it was understandable.

Or rather, even if it wasn’t, what could they do?

He was saying it like that.

Besides….

“Oh? Tutan, you came too?”

“Ooh, Sanson, great human warrior. Have you been well?”

“Hey. This green-green fellow has come.”

“Uhaha. Have you been well? Knight A.”

“I told you not to call me that!”

Seeing him acting friendly with the Bong-gong’s existing comrades, they had no choice but to believe him.

Seeing Go Seok-hyeon nod in understanding, though still with some doubt, Patrick nodded.

‘Well, it’s not a complete lie.’

Tutan, a servant of Kalaron, evolves as he accumulates power.

It was true that he wasn’t as ridiculously large at first as he was now.

So it wasn’t a complete lie.

‘Hmm, self-justification complete. Case closed, bang bang bang!’

[Oh, you swindler.]

Ah, let’s just move on nicely, Master.

In any case, his forces were replenished.

Now it was really time to set out on the mission.

“Tutan, while I’m gone, protect this place with Sanson and Oliver.”

“Understood, Brother.”

Tutan, who pounded his chest and made a promise, was quite reliable.

And actually, he wanted to leave Isabella here too, but….

“Are you going with me?”

“I will.”

Even Patrick couldn’t bring himself to leave her here and go.
