Cheonma wants to live quietly - Chapter 1

Translator: Novelmultiverse| Editor: Beetlesme

Weak, trashy body.

When Cheonma turned to face the horrific image he had created himself, he saw nothing but dead bodies and blood.

The setting was appropriate for his passing because all of his previous lives involved blood and death. So, other than here, where else would be a better spot to pass away?

“I need to leave; it’s time.”

Cheonma was aware that he would pass away shortly due to a side consequence of the magical spell he had to learn on his own that expanded his soul.

Cheonma had learned a magical spell. He could build a body that was more powerful than anybody else’s, but the body would explode because Cheonma couldn’t manage the power that the Magical Spell absorbed, and he would die.

Every Cheonma had faith in their ability to go beyond such challenges.

He shared the same sentiments with others, but neither they nor the current him were able to triumph over them.

Booom!!

The lower abdomen erupted with a powerful force. By drawing strength from the body, that power was passing through it and giving it a powerful force.

The consciousness grew hazy; it was a power beyond the capacity of humanity.

It seemed to be tearing one’s spirit apart. It was evident that one’s soul would be destroyed because the power was amassed through absorbing the souls of others. 

A black chain that appeared to be made of shadow rose from the earth at the instant of death.

Cheonma’s body was bound with many shackles.

“Do you intend to drag me to hell?”

He was able to enter hell freely because it was Cheonma.

“Who dares to drag me to hell?”

Cheonma tore the shadow chain that was constricting his body by radiating powerful energy throughout his body

“Grrrr!”

Shatter!

The shadow chain was yanked away as Cheonma pulled it, making a loud noise in the process.

A black shadow was what was at the end of the chain.

If there was a death angel, it most likely resembled that.

“Hahaha! With my own two feet, I’m going to hell! Whether it is sulfur flame or hell, I don’t care!”

Cheonma’s physique erupted in strength. He then exterminated the death angels that had been around him.

Cheonma’s soul was then split into fragments and separated as a result. Cheonma’s body was in excruciating pain at that very moment.

Cheonma caught a glimpse of wisdom at the very end of the agony.

“That wasn’t it, I see.” The magical spell to amplify souls wasn’t only a spell to steal someone’s soul!

He discovered a hint on how to correctly obtain the magical spell for soul enlargement, but it was already too late.

Cheonma’s state of consciousness becomes hazy.

“I want to lead a different life in my next life,Quiet and tranquil.”

After considerable contemplation, Cheonma’s soul vanished.

* * * * * * * * * * * *

“Prince! You are back here. The food is prepared.”

Cheonma was sitting on a pond, gazing at his reflection in the water.

He had previously been performing this for ten days.

The realization didn’t take long to come to. Not even a day was needed to complete it.

He was the one who created a world rife with violence and terror.

Perhaps he had to endure countless episodes of brutality and cruelty before creating such chaos.

He had become weary of assessing, adapting to, and overcoming the circumstance for this reason.

Cheonma, however, could not tolerate such a situation.

Cheonma observed himself in the water’s mirror.

He wasn’t even twenty, was he? There was a visage there that did not even quite resemble a man.

“Is that me?”

I was certain that I had passed away, yet when I awoke, my face looked just like this.

“Your food is growing cold, my Prince. You must act quickly.”

Additionally, the servant who was sitting next to me and was moving with short steps startled me up.

He intended to execute the slave who dared to address their master in such a manner, but he was unable to do so.

“I do have a weak, terrible body.”

The servant talked fast as Cheonma muttered.

“Dear Prince! Avoid saying that! You’ll feel better now. Soon, the best medical professional will arrive. Have you heard of the Godly Physician? This time, he’ll be coming here.”

Cheonma guffawed.

“Where will an unidentified doctor treat me?”

“Your Prince. You cannot speak in that manner. I’ve told you several times. To have a positive experience, you must be optimistic and kind.”

Cheonma chuckled before walking away.

“I hope you use similar language in 20 years again.”

“Gosh, are you going to keep acting that way?”

Cheonma didn’t respond and instead began to move.

 * * * *

Cheonma studied the owner of this body for the past 10 days.

Taesan Byeok was the name of the owner. He was a member of Muhan’s elite Golden Clan, a well-known trading clan.

His older brother, who was the leader of the Top Golden Clan, was an orphan.

Taesan’s body was also very delicate.

He had an erratic heartbeat, and it seemed that no physician had ever discovered a treatment for it.

Cheonma was able to precisely recall the characteristics of this body, nevertheless.

It couldn’t gain Magical Skills because of its erratic heartbeat.

The sole option was a magical skill that raised the soul, and that was it.

Cheonma kept repeating his name, Taesan Byeok, as he moved.

He has always felt that the name fits him well ever since he first heard it.

It appeared as though he had always gone by that name.

He tried to recall his real name because of this, but strangely enough, he was unsuccessful.

Everything from the past was still fresh in his memory, but he couldn’t recall what his name was.

“The last time someone had to call my name was a while ago.”

Actually, he didn’t even need to hear his name. While his opponents referred to him as Cheonma and referred to him as the Almighty, subordinates addressed him as Lord or Master.

How on earth could he have forgotten his name, though? 

Whatever the case, this time something that appeared unthinkable actually occurred. He believed Taesan Byeok to be his original name for this reason.

Does my name really matter at this point?

The fact that I am alive and will die again if I continue in this manner is what matters.

“So I should recover for the time being,”

The Magical Spell of Increasing the Soul was a solution for this.

By briefly fusing his erratic heartbeats with spiritual power, he was able to cast magical spells.

The heartbeat will naturally link when repeated.

“There should be a spirit for that.”

The best spirit comes from a living person.

He had previously exploited a spirit by extracting it from a victim of recent violence, but after experiencing enlightenment while dying, he realized that he shouldn’t do so.

“Let’s go the simple route.”

Cheonma would use a more effective approach if his body were stronger, but he was unable to do so at the moment.

“I want to take a walk today, soso.”

“Really? To where?”

You’re not required to know. Bring me a servant to serve as my guide rather than you.

Soso responded with a cheery smile.

“I am well-versed. Where are you heading, exactly? You can assume there is nowhere to go.

Soso made no effort to mention that I wanted to eat and sample the flavors.

Soso gazed at Taesan Byeok while grinning broadly.

Taesan Byeok retorted while grinning.

“What? You appear unconcerned. Then get ready because we are going to a classy brothel.”

The eyes of Soso grew like glass.

“What? In a brothel?”

She now understood why Taesan Byeok requested that she bring a servant to help him.

“Ah, if not for you, then… Ah! There is a security who will follow you outside so you two can proceed.”

She spoke to him as Soso scowled.

You have never been there, Prince.

“You can come with me if you don’t like it.”

“I won’t do that! Gosh! I’ll inform Yeon, your fiance, of this.”

“Sure, whatever.”

Taesan Byeon’s fiancé, Harin Yeon, was the Yeon referenced by Soso.

Although it was reported that they were engaged at the start of the year, Cheonma felt he was just somewhat interested. The only thing he knew was that the person who owned this body was likewise frigid and cynical about the fiancée, albeit he hadn’t yet seen her face.

She was the most attractive woman in Muhan, according to Soso, but Cheonma couldn’t rely on that information.

It was quite unusual to obtain evidence when a woman claimed another woman was attractive.

Soso had mournful eyes as she regarded Taesan Byeok.

“My Prince. Be kind to yourself. Can you at least hold out hope until God’s physician thoroughly examines your body?”

With wonderful eyes, Cheonma or Taesan Byeok turned to face Soso.

Soso’s behavior and words could be seen as genuine.

He had encountered several foes that had a split personalities. He had grown weary of determining someone’s sincerity by their words and deeds because of this.

One could not trick Cheonma’s intuition.

“This is a fortunate thing. It’s irritating.”

Taesan Byeok laughed as he moved quickly.

Taesan Byeok was prepared to leave when the sun was beginning to set.

Taesan Byeok’s clothes were adjusted by Soso. Her face showed a range of feelings.

“Aren’t my outfits too formal to visit brothel?”

“In no way. Only if you demonstrate that you have a lot of money when you visit these establishments will you be treated favorably.”

“You speak about it as though you were there.”

“Do I need to go there to find out this information? I’ve heard many tales about the location.”

Anyhow, where is the guard that will soon arrive?

“He will arrive on schedule. Other than serving as your guard, he exclusively trains himself.”

A warrior from the Black Dragon Group named Gyeongwan Cheon was in charge of watching over Taesan Byeok.

Only when the Top Golden Clan was in jeopardy did the Black Dragon Group come into being.

They only ever trained.

The only Black Dragon Group member in charge of Taesan Byeok’s security was Gyeongwan Cheon.

In the Top Golden Clan, there were additional warrior organizations like the Black Dragon Group.

Of course, they lacked the abilities of other warriors from powerful families, but they were stronger than others.

“He must be present.”

Taesan Byeok remarked, and Soso made a sinister grimace. She was taken aback when she heard the horse sound, though.

“My Prince, you may leave at this time.”

Soso’s eyes widened in surprise as they met Taesan Byeok’s.

“How did you learn about it? “

Taesan Byeok laughed and opened the door instead of responding to Soso.

“If there is a powerful spirit present, how can you not know it?”

Gyeongwan Cheon was outdoors when Taesan Byeok cast a glance his way.

He was a man with a sword-like edge.

He was so full of spirit. He appeared so keen that he gave off the impression that he would chop off anything.

“It’s pretty good,”

Curiosity crept up into Taesan Byeok’s mind.
