A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 172 – Want to Meet My Family
It had been about three more hours that Sung Han waited for the girl next to him to wake up. During that time, he continued to meditate to gather natural air to self-medicate. However, since the beginning of the match his body was already in a state that was not very fresh fit, so that plus the battle that forced him to exert energy, made his wounds open again.
The injury, although not life-threatening, is quite severe as well. During the match against Sung Hwa, there were no external scars except those brutal blows. But the effects of the powerful air shots belonging to Sung Hwa make the inner body is not healthy anymore.
After hours of meditation, his previously pale face turned reddish again. Boyok-boyok on the face had started to fade over time and this time was almost completely gone.
The sun was already on the western horizon when Sung Han finished his meditation. He saw how the sky was reddish orange, a sign that the day would soon be dark.
Just then, he heard the voice of the moaning person next to him. Quickly he turned his head to find Yang Ruan had already blinked his eyes.
"You're sober? Good." Sung Han said after sighing a few times.
Yang Ruan started to open his eyes slowly, he blinked a few times and glanced right and left. Her clear and beautiful eyes suddenly glared and she had already jumped to her feet. Of course this surprised Sung Han who immediately warned him.
"Don't move much first!"
However late, Yang Ruan was already standing up and he staggered before falling to his feet. In front of his eyes were thousands of stars.
"W-what happened? Where's that motherfucker?" he said with a curious tone about the Red Eagles. He felt he had not accepted with all his heart over his defeat.
"He's gone."
"Why did you just leave it?!"
Sung Han revealed an expression that was difficult to decipher.
"Are you not strong? Is beating a girl like that all you can't afford?" Yang Ruan felt hot in his chest. His face reddened in anger, "He will obviously be a threat to us in the future!!"
"That Ruan!!" sung Han's words were firm. He looked down inside, "Let him go..."
Sung Han then stood up and he walked towards the forest speechless. Yang Ruan looked at him with a deep frown and the eyelight implied a huge question mark. Why does the figure of Sung Han who is a young swordsman, show such expression and attitude? What does it mean with a sagging shoulder like a breakup person?
"I'm going to get some food" Sung Han said briefly and briefly had already flashed away from there.
He always thought about Sung Hwa. After learning how the girl was still a descendant of the Sung family that since childhood he thought it was over. How the girl became a descendant of Sung Hwa, the younger brother of Sung Lan who became his ancestor.
Earlier, after saying that he was still a distant cousin, Sung Hwa took his sword and left. When Sung Han asks why not kill him, he is the girl's life-destroyer. Sung Hwa replied.
"From now on, I'll admit it. Already, I'm going."
Of course, speech that is not clear what it means always haunts the mind of Sung Han who is tired of inner birth. His gaze always seemed soft with frowns, until without him knowing it himself, he had caught two fat jungle chickens.
Upon his return to Yang Ruan's place, it turned out that the girl had prepared a bonfire. He sat pensively on the outskirts looking at the fire.
"Without a veil like that, she was beautiful. I didn't realize it at the black chief election meeting!" muttered Sung Han.
Upon Sung Han's arrival, Yang Ruan turned his head and he smiled. "I'm sorry for my attitude, come and let me make a dish out of those two partying roosters" he said, patting the thick grass next to him.
"Tell me what happened. There's gotta be something, right?" Yang Ruan opened his voice when Sung Han was already sitting next to him. His hands were busy flipping the roast chicken.
"The Ruan, actually...."
...****************...
Sung Hwa sat pensively on a large rock. The stone is on the edge of the river, so the atmosphere there is very comfortable and serene. The sound of rustling river water instead of adding noise, but it adds silence around the river.
This girl looked at the moon hanging at a height with a flat face. But if he looks, his eyes seem empty. I don't know what I saw nobody knows.
He sat curled up on the stone, already since this afternoon he had not moved. As if it had become a new sculpture that had not been moss.
Although the outside situation is so quiet, but actually in Sung Hwa, in his heart there is a very noisy noise. Various kinds of questions raged stirring up his chest contents. And he's confused about it.
Sung Hwa sighed a few times, "Why can't I kill him? Isn't that my life's goal?" Sung Hwa stared at his two hands after goal, "What's wrong with me?"
Then he looked back up like this, looking at the dark night sky with moon decorations and some stars that seemed to glow dimly. Sung Hwa's eyes were like those stars, dim and luminous.
He suddenly recalled what he said to Sung Han just before he left.
"From now on, I'll admit it. Already, I'm going."
This is what Sung Hwa said before he left. And he's totally inexhaustible with himself. Although at that time he spoke like that, but actually he did not want to acknowledge it as a whole. The proof until late at night like now, his heart was still hesitating.
He drowned his head in the folds of the hands placed on both knees. There was a sigh several times from his mouth, and his shoulders moved up and down as his breathing moved.
"Huh..seems like, it is like that.." he murmured. "But he killed my whole society...."
The more I thought, Sung Hwa was hesitating. Until he finally got up to his feet with clenched hands, his eyes lit a different spirit fire than before. Even though the fire seemed to look dim once almost invisible. But at least at this moment there was still spirit contained within the look in his eyes.
"A man cannot deny what he has done. I have to admit, I can't turn away!" he said to himself.
Then hesitantly Sung Hwa continued, "If only I was lonely and wanted to meet my family..."
