The Regressed Young Master’s Guide to Living on Easy Mode

Chapter 106 : Feeling the Waves (13)

The men under the Blood-Faced Demon point to an island.

"Is this the place?"

The men under him all nod their heads.

As I got off on the island, I felt a stinging gaze from behind. When I looked back, the people I had rescued from the previous island were looking at me with fearful eyes.

"Huh?"

I tilted my head slightly, then nodded in understanding.

I went back up to the ship and tied the men under the Blood-Faced Demon to the ship's mast. And I said to the Rakshasa Divine Maiden.

"Keep an eye on the kids so they don't do anything foolish."

"Shall I kill them?"

"Hmm... as you wish."

It seems the kid still hasn't gotten over this 'shall I kill them' disease. Perhaps this is the Rakshasa Divine Maiden's identity, so I decided to stop caring.

Above all, if they become useless, it's none of my business whether they die or are killed.

And the Rakshasa Divine Maiden no longer hid her appearance from me.

"Can I really do as I please?"

Although we hadn't exchanged many words since we reunited, she felt more proactive than before. I didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing yet.

Still, it was commendable that she was trying to do something on her own. Later, I'll have to catch the guys related to the Black Heaven on the island and throw them to her to kill to her heart's content.

Next to her, I could see the kid's eyes sparkling. The kid was asking the Rakshasa Divine Maiden various things.

"Noona! If these uncles do something bad, can I just pluck out their eyeballs?"

"If you just pluck out their eyeballs, they'll just become blind, but if you poke them, you can kill them while giving them more pain."

"Wow! Awesome! Is there anything else?"

"If there's anything else you want to know, I can also teach you 666 ways to kill a person painfully."

"Tell me!"

As a former Young Lord of the Heavenly Demon Cult, it's always satisfying to see a sprout growing into a fine talent of the demonic path.

Yes. Usually, one has to start killing from a young age to get used to it.

Later, when I meet the Demonic Brain, I'll have to subtly ask if this kid can be transferred to the Little Demon Academy.

I can't miss out on such a talent.

On the other hand, Namgung Mu-gwang was showing a blatant dislike for the men under the Blood-Faced Demon. And he was looking after the convenience of the people rescued from the island.

As expected, he was doing the petty act of a member of the Orthodox Faction, a master of politics.

I do all the physical work, and he just blabbers on, and later, he'll take all the thanks and gratitude.

As expected of an Orthodox Faction bastard.

To calm my mind, I looked at the kid again. And at the rather profound conversation, I called back my conscience that had gone out for a bit.

"Do you see this tendon?"

"Ung!"

"This is called the Achilles tendon. It's fun to play tag after cutting this."

"Ung, ung!"

Early education is important, but too early an education can ruin a demonic path prodigy.

Yes. 10 years old was a bit much. Just in case his mind completely snaps and he becomes like Soma.

I called the kid.

"Kid, you come with me."

"Okay!"

For now, I decided to take the kid with me.

It must be my illusion that the Rakshasa Divine Maiden seemed disappointed for some reason.

Come to think of it, the Rakshasa Divine Maiden is from the orthodox Orthodox Faction. And she is the direct disciple of the highest-ranking and former Martial Alliance Leader.

Yes. The Rakshasa Divine Maiden is the best pawn of the Orthodox Faction!

For the time being, I'll have to take charge of the education of the demonic path prodigy, the kid.

'Just now, the Rakshasa Divine Maiden might have seen the kid's prodigy-like qualities and had a scheme to destroy his mind at an early age!'

Indeed, a high-level self-sacrificing plan that she carries out even at her own expense!

As expected, since there are two Orthodox Faction guys, the atmosphere is too murky.

I already miss it. The time when I was in the Heavenly Demon Cult!

And so, while I was looking around the island with the kid, I encountered an unexpected situation.

The enemy... was not. There were a few, but they were at a level that could be easily suppressed. In the process, the kid's eyes were naturally covered.

What surprised me were the captured people. To be more precise, it was their reaction.

"Young Lord!"

Seeing the kid, all the people knelt on one knee and paid their respects.

If someone saw it, it would seem as if the kid were the last remaining descendant of some sect.

"Shin Dokgo-rang and 10 others greet the Young Lord!"

"Who are you?"

"Y-Young Lord! Don't you remember us?"

The kid hides behind my leg.

I would have done the same. Not pretty noonas, but uncles who clearly smell of sweat suddenly kneeling before you.

For now, as the spokesperson for the demonic path prodigy, the kid who will lead the future Heavenly Demon Cult, I asked them.

"Who are you to pretend to know our kid?"

Then, the man who had introduced himself as Dokgo-rang opened his mouth.

"I was an elder of the Hainan Sect. Now, my dantian is broken and I'm an ordinary person. And all the people here were disciples of the Hainan Sect."

"Were?"

"Yes. We were suddenly attacked by unknown assailants one day. The Hainan Sect lost its master that day and was occupied by the enemy. When I regained consciousness, I was here, living a life no different from a slave. I thought everything was over..."

Suddenly, the old man started to cry. Then the people behind him also started to cry, with tears and snot running down their faces.

I was about to tell them to turn around and cry, but their situation was so pitiful that I held it in just this once. If a similar situation were to happen next time, I was prepared to boldly say, 'Turn around and cry.'

"Mister."

At the voice from below, I looked down, and the kid was looking up at me.

'As expected of a future demonic path prodigy! You felt the same way as me!'

I understand. The way of the demonic path is not to cry, but to take revenge somehow. In that sense, the Hainan Sword Demon before my regression had enough qualities of the demonic path.

Wait a minute, Hainan Sword Demon? Hainan Sect? There's a strange resemblance. Nah! It can't be.

There's no way the outstanding demonic path prodigy, the kid, has any connection with the Hainan Sect.

But the kid's gaze is strange.

The kid is not just slave number 1 for my honey-sucking life in the future! He is a demonic path prodigy who will lead the Heavenly Demon Cult!

I can't lose him here!

The kid opened his mouth. Gulp. I opened my ears with a nervous heart.

"It's dirty."

"Dirty?"

"Yeah! Tears, snot, it's dirty! I want to just smash their faces!"

Phew. That's a relief. I thought the kid was the son of the dead sect master. Haha! They must have mistaken the kid for someone else.

"To be honest, I feel the same way, but their situation is pitiful, so let's just bear with it this once."

"Yeah! Okay!"

A short while later, after hearing all the stories of these uncles, I had no choice but to admit it.

"So, the kid is the young master of the Hainan Sect?"

"Not just the young master! He is the only remaining direct descendant!"

That's right. The kid's annihilation of the Hainan Sect in the past was revenge.

But why now?

"Kid, don't you remember anything?"

"Hainan Sect..."

"Yes! Do you remember anything?"

Just then.

"Wait, even though I'm like this now, I was a pretty well-known doctor in Hainan!"

"That's right! That person is the most skilled doctor in the Hainan Sect!"

A series of certifications from several uncles followed. It seemed that what he said was true. The old man who was a doctor approached the kid and took his pulse. A short while later, the doctor said.

"It seems he received a great shock to his Baihui acupoint recently. It seems that has caused a loss of memory."

"As expected, he must have received a great shock when those bastards invaded!"

"Damn bastards, after the sect master, even the young lord!"

"Ah... God. Why are you so cruel to our Hainan!"

Sting.

As soon as I heard the doctor's words, I felt a very small pain in my chest. Of course, it was so faint that if I didn't pay attention, it would be like a passing ant's bite, but still.

A shock to the Baihui.

And it was recent.

There was one thing that came to mind.

Come to think of it, when I first met him, the kid's gaze seemed to hold a great deal of resentment.

I had thought that the young kid's eyes were annoyingly sharp.

"Ahem! Is the memory loss certain?"

"That's right. I'm certain, with all my conscience as a doctor!"

"I-I see."

"Do you have any idea?"

I looked at the distant mountain for no reason, kicked the innocent ground with my foot, and answered.

"No?"

"Hmm?"

Since my regression, I've had a series of bad encounters with doctors.

"Pupil dilation, suddenly faster breathing, your face is a little redder than before, and why are you suddenly touching your nose with your left hand?"

"I-I said no."

"You're even stuttering?"

"Hey! I said no!"

The doctor, who had been suspecting me, took the kid's pulse again. And the doctor's eyes widened, and he fell backwards in surprise.

"This can't be!"

Damn it! Am I caught?

At that reaction, I felt a sting for no reason, and the people around me all focused on the doctor.

"What else is wrong?"

"Does the young lord have a serious illness?"

"H-how did you know!"

"Healed!"

"Healed?"

"What?"

"Old geezer! Speak properly!"

It seemed I wasn't the only one who was frustrated with the doctor.

Yes! Just add the subject and object properly! So, am I caught or not?

"The illness is healed, I say!"

"Are you talking about the blocked meridians?"

"Wasn't the blocked meridians an incurable disease?"

"I heard that in the martial world, only the Yak-seon or the Demonic Doctor can cure blocked meridians."

"That blocked meridians is healed, I say! You idiots! This is a miracle!"

Wow! Our doctor is so cool...

"Huh?"

"Is that true?"

"That's right! Heaven has helped us! A miracle has happened, I say!"

People started crying again. And the kid said.

"The blocked meridians uncle fixed it."

At that moment, the gazes of these people looking at me changed.

Just as they had done to the kid earlier, no! More than that, they bent both knees and prostrated themselves on the floor, almost as if they were bowing, and said to me.

"We greet our benefactor!"

"We greet our benefactor!"

Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting! Sting!

Conscience! Get a grip!

Sting...

"Hahaha. Everyone, please get up. I just helped someone in difficulty. And coming to rescue you is also an extension of that."

"Indeed! At first, I thought you were some rude bastard, but you were a great hero! I have opened my eyes today!"

"You are the savior of the Hainan Sect!"

"To think there was still such a hero in the Orthodox Faction! This is a great fortune for the Orthodox Faction!"

"Haha!"

I couldn't help but let out an awkward laugh.

Memory loss is better than dying from blocked meridians. Yeah. What's good is good.

Kid, you think so too, right?

Instead of living a life of revenge as the young lord of a ruined sect, isn't it more joyful to grow up as a demonic path prodigy of the number one sect in the world, the Heavenly Demon Cult, and become a fine demonic path executive?

"Mister! This grandpa keeps fiddling with my hand, can I just smash his face once?"

"Originally, in the martial world, you shouldn't hit old people, women, or children."

"Why?"

"The weaker they look, the more they have to hide. So you have to be careful."

"Yeah! Okay!"

By the way, the Hainan Sect was attacked...

It seems I have one more thing to do.

While disrupting the work of the Black Heaven guys, while dragging in the Sword Empress, I'll also have to take revenge for the kid in advance.

Later, when the kid's memory returns, he might say he wants to leave the demonic path and go to the Orthodox Faction for revenge, and then I'll have no justification to stop him.

Looking back at my past life, when the kid's memory returned, he would definitely take revenge no matter what.

Yes, I've decided. Where can I find such a fine slave... no, a demonic path prodigy!

I said to them.

"That revenge! I will help you!"

"Thank you, great hero! If there's anything we can do to help, we will do our best!"

"I will never forget this grace for the rest of my life! As long as I live, I will dedicate this one life to the great hero!"

"From today, if the great hero says something, I will follow it at least once!"

"Me too!"

I don't really want your help.

Just then, the old doctor said.

"I, too, have received a grace, so I will at least take your pulse to see if you have any injuries."

"Yes. Okay."

I had been feeling nauseous ever since I fought the Blood-Faced Demon, so I readily gave him my wrist. A short while later, the old doctor's eyes became even wider than before. I suddenly became anxious and asked.

"W-why? Is it my internal injuries!"

The old doctor said.

"This is the request of my lifetime! If it's not too much of an imposition, may I perform an autopsy! An autopsy just once?"

Well, of course.

I was now used to it and answered.

"No, you can't."
