Chapter 205
Episode 204
A few days later, Dan Woo-hyeon, who was staying in Sichuan Province, got on a carriage and started moving again. Since it was a long distance, I tried to rest briefly and move around, but my weakness hindered me and I wasted two more days.
Tap, tap, tap.
Jang Sam-tae, who was sitting in the coach seat, turned his head. I looked at the sight of Dan Woo-hyeon sitting in the coachman’s seat rather than in the carriage with quite amazement.
I said I wanted to get some air, but I’ve already been sitting for an hour, so haven’t I gotten enough air?
It was very uncomfortable for us to sit together, so I wanted them to stop going in now.
Jang Sam-tae touched his slightly raised hair and sighed.
“Now that I think about it, Lord Jang.”
“What?”
“What was that?” I asked what I was most curious about.
Dan Woo-hyeon seemed to be in a really bad mood, so I couldn’t bear to ask him a question. After stuffing the map I brought with me, I never took it out.
Is it somehow related to Dan Woo-hyeon’s past?
“Nothing to know. “It’s not a good thing to know.”
“haha! Then you don’t have to know. Cancer! “Isn’t there so much in the world that you don’t need to know?”
Jang Sam-tae smiled and rode the horse.
This is what Dan Woohyun said, not anyone else.
It must have something to do with something that Jang Sam-tae can’t handle. If so, you shouldn’t be curious, and you shouldn’t get deeply involved either.
“Now that I think about it, who on earth is that kid? “He appears to be a child from a fairly well-known family… but he seems to be fearless and walks around alone.”
“There is still a long way to go. The shadows lurking around the child were over twenty. “All of them are top-notch and top experts.”
“Eh?”
To Jang Sam-tae, who was still weak at reading emotions, it seemed like nothing more than a child walking around alone.
I occasionally felt strange signs, but I never thought they were human. Jang Sam-tae smiled awkwardly and cleared his throat.
“Was…were those people hiding? Anyway, in that case, she comes from a really great family….”
“She is the biological daughter of Wangya of Honam.”
“Eh?!”
My pupils got even bigger than when I was startled just a moment ago.
I looked at Dan Woo-hyeon as if I couldn’t believe it. But isn’t this person the kind of person who would tell lies?
“Ho… what if she is the true daughter of the King of Honam…?”
Jang Sam-tae stammered.
A voice was heard from behind.
“She is the daughter of King Yeongchin. That means a monarch. Moreover, King Ya of Honam is the younger brother of the current emperor and we have a very close relationship, so his power must be very strong.”
Jang Sam-tae rolled his head.
“So you’re saying that Jiyak is the monarch that even the emperor stops pampering!?”
Jang Sam-tae was embarrassed and looked at Namgung So-hye. I thought that even if I asked Dan Woo-hyeon, he wouldn’t know. Nam Gung So-hye nodded briefly.
“Yes, the monarch is probably right. I saw it at first glance the last time I went to Wangbu. “I was quite embarrassed.”
Namgung Sohye smiled as she recalled the time she went to Honam Wangbu the other day. I can still see the sight of him begging me never to tell Somi.
“I… I can’t believe I knew someone like that…”
Jang Sam-tae swallowed dryly.
There were many times when I walked Somi to school or when she went to meet her friends in Agyang.
There were more than a few times when I yelled at Jiyak or was rude to him.
Jang Sam-tae gently stroked his neck.
They were checking to see if the neck was attached properly.
While thinking about that, I quickly realized, “Ah!” and let out a short exclamation.
‘Yes, yes, Wangya is the leader? There’s someone worse than him next to me…’
No matter how much I thought about it, I was more afraid of Dan Woo-hyeon next to me than the royal family.
Because the fist is closer than the law.
Furthermore, Dan Woo-hyeon was a ghost who seemed like he would trample on and chew him up without even paying attention to him because he was a member of the royal family.
puck!
“Aiko-!”
“Look ahead. “Isn’t the carriage shaking?”
“But that doesn’t mean hitting him…”
Jang Sam-tae was overcome with pain, and he held his head and shed tears. I don’t think he hit me simply because he wasn’t looking ahead. Convinced that he had probably read my mind, I stopped all thoughts.
In times like this, it was better to just remain thoughtless.
“By the way, it’s really noisy.” Namgung Sohye lifted her small lips and sighed. The Cheondohoe and the Murimmaeng are splitting up, and the entire Central Plains is in a state of turmoil.
Although these two organizations do not directly clash, their followers are making every effort to make themselves known.
For Namgung So-hye, who had only seen the peaceful martial arts forest not long ago, it was something that was somewhat unaccustomable to her.
“Moorim is inherently noisy. “That way you get the taste of swinging a knife.”
“Is that so?”
“okay. “If only it were in the past.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled and closed his eyes.
I wasn’t sure if she was reminiscing about the past or simply closing her eyes, but Namgung Sohye shrugged her shoulders without saying anything more.
A thin wind blew inside the carriage, which was running strong.
“Whoa… I’m finally gone.” Jiyak looked at the carriage disappearing into the distance and let out a small sigh.
It was very sad to let Somi go, but that child has his own journey.
I felt sad that I wanted to follow along, but I couldn’t.
At the very least, if Dan Woo-hyeon and his father had been close, they would have been able to talk to each other somehow, but for the past two days, the two have not even seen each other face to face.
It’s because her father is too busy.
“What on earth was that?” He walked back towards the king at a brisk pace and opened his mouth. It was quite strange to see someone talking to me even though they weren’t around.
But a human voice rang out in the empty space.
-I don’t know, but… it seems to be related to a person named Dan Woo-hyeon.
“Somi’s father?”
Jiyak remembered Dan Woo-hyeon and swallowed a groan.
It was very unfair that the map was taken away, but when I saw his expression, I couldn’t help but give it to him.
Anyone else would have scolded her for what she was talking about, but for Dan Woo-hyeon, So-mi’s father, it was impossible.
In fact, to Jiyak, he was a scarier person than his father or uncle.
“What on earth is this person doing?” I fell into deep thought.
I already knew that he was not Dan So-mi’s biological father. I heard it from Somi, but I had already researched it before.
It was amazing to see the royal family using the land as if it were their own, and the public order in Akyang had improved greatly since Dan Woo-hyeon appeared.
Of course, she wasn’t the one who did the research when she was young.
Her father did the research and heard the results.
“Are you scared?”
-…If you ask me that, I have no choice but to say that I am scared and afraid.
“Is it that much?”
Jiyak knew very well how great the person who was speaking was.
A former commander of the Geumuiwiwi, who is called the best expert of the imperial family and once led the Jinuiwiwi.
That’s pretty much the end of explaining how great his skills are.
-He saw right through our existence from the moment we first met. Sometimes I look around and make eye contact… it feels like my soul is escaping.
“Is that so?” Jiyak swallowed dry saliva and nodded.
Actually, it looked really scary.
I organized the thoughts that came into my head one by one. In the end, I threw away the secret of the map without being able to solve it, but meeting Somi was truly a stroke of luck.
Jiyak opened the front door of the royal palace and entered.
She took a step, caught her breath, and turned her head.
flinch-!
There was a boy standing there, confused.
“It looks like you slept very comfortably. My face is shiny. “Did you rest well?”
“Oh, no, that’s it…” The boy trembled and took a step back. The son of Wang Ya, who rules Sacheon Province.
However, because he was less powerful than Jiyak’s father and was not a full brother but a half-brother of the current emperor, he could not dare to criticize Jiyak.
Jiyak, or rather Jujiyak, approached with a grin on his face.
“Do you want to hit my head first?”
“Yes, yes!”
The boy cried and hit his head on the bare floor.
Ju Ji-yak gracefully climbed onto the boy’s back and sighed.
“It should be a good trip…”
“Off…”
It didn’t seem like the man’s pained moans could even be heard.
“This… really…”
There were two monks looking at the burning scenery.
They banged on the wooden table, frowned, lamented, and sighed.
The smell of burning human flesh was so strong that it came with the wind.
“Great Kunlun…”
The one burning is none other than the Kunlun faction.
They are one of the pillars of the Gupa Ilbang and have reigned as the guardians of Cheonghae for a long time.
It was a strong pillar of the political faction that blocked the Magyo Bridge to the west, blocked the outside world to the south, and kept Podalap Palace in check to the north.
I couldn’t believe that such a Kunlun faction was on fire.
The two monks lamented and looked at the sky.
When so many people disappear into ashes, why does the sky not shed a single tear?
clattering-!
The burning palace of the Kunlun faction collapsed.
The fire raged even more fiercely, and the blowing wind fanned it further.
It seemed like a fire demon had stuck to me and would never go out.
“Who on earth did this?”
“Kunlun is like a symbol of Qinghai… This place collapsed. Two monks looked to the west at the same time.
At the end of my gaze, the invisible image of Cheonsanma Bridge was drawn. Is this Kunlun disaster a declaration of war that they will step forward to the Central Plains?
If not that, is there something else?
The monks, who could not find any traces, had headaches.
“Maybe it’s the work of a vampire god demon who has been running rampant recently.”
The two people’s eyes narrowed when they heard the words “Vampire God Demon.”
How long was the journey from Podalap Palace to Cheonghae? It was all to capture that vampire god demon.
However, nothing can be gained from Kunlun, which is on fire.
Even if the flames were extinguished, I didn’t think there would be anything left that could be a clue.
The two monks bowed their heads and chanted.
All they could do now was simply pray for the souls of the dead.
