Episode 119. It was lost in the guise of
something ordinary .
The moment Han Ibi looks away in embarrassment.
Suddenly, a fan popped out from the space below and grazed the acupuncture point on my wrist.
Han Ibi suddenly lost strength.
At the same time, the Hanzo sword was instantly returned to the man.
It was truly a fleeting moment.
Han Ibi felt cold sweat running down her back.
The man raised the Hanzo sword, held it up to the sunlight, and said.
“and! This is amazing. Because it doesn’t even reflect light at all. What is it made of? “I would say it is truly a treasure disguised as something ordinary.”
At that moment, Han Ibi was quite embarrassed.
So he quickly took out his strange sword and prepared to attack again.
It seemed like the man wasn’t prepared because he was watching Hanzo Sword.
Then Kwak Won-hoe shouted loudly and said:
“for a moment! no!”
Han Yi-bi, however, quickly used the first technique of Zhongli Myeongjeong Sword Technique and extended the knife towards the man’s neck.
The man had not taken his eyes off Hanzo Sword until then.
However….
suddenly he saw Hanzo Sword flying towards him.
Han Ibi was startled and tried to avoid it, but it wasn’t easy.
Just as I was clenching my teeth and trying to endure the pain.
As Hanzo’s sword loses its strength, it flies straight towards Han Yi Fei’s left hand.
Han Ibi felt quite embarrassed as she had received the Hanzo sword without realizing it.
The man said with a smile.
“It was a nice sight. You have a good sword. “The world is truly wide.”
As a result, Han Ibi fell into a state of hesitation, unable to attack or not.
At that time, Kwak Won-hoe spoke to the man.
“How about you go back now? “Didn’t you meet like this, just as you wanted?”
However, the man spoke to Han Ibi as if he could not hear her at all.
“It was you.”
Ebi Han said.
“What do you mean?”
“What happened that day?”
“What happened that day?”
“That commotion that happened in the Qingcheng faction. It’s a shame, but I also ended up getting drunk. ha ha ha. “You could say I was literally stabbed in the back.”
“joy. “If you are referring to the culprit of the commotion, you are mistaken.”
“no. That’s not it. Everyone was talking about a friend named Jong Ri-hyuk… but I instinctively felt that there was someone behind me. That’s why I invited all four of you to come here. “So that my identity will not be suspected.”
‘What is this? I have no idea what’s being said, but the story going on is unusual. I have a feeling we should never get involved.’
Han Ibi said while thinking this.
“At that time, I was also wandering around drunk on drugs and music, so I guess you were mistaken.”
At that time, I heard Kwak Won-hoe yelling.
“How dare you play with your tongue carelessly? It’s you. Just one more time…”
At that time, the man raised his hand again and spoke, covering Kwak Won-hoe’s mouth.
“for a moment. Manager Kwak. “Isn’t it my fault for not introducing it?”
Then, with a smile, he unfolded his fan and began to fan it.
“Let me formally introduce you. “I am King Yeseong.”
Then Han Ibi stopped and said.
“The king… Then the king?”
Then Kwak Won-hoe said with a puzzled expression.
“What nonsense is that? King Yeseong is the fifth prince of the imperial family.”
‘Mr. Lee. How do I know who the Five Emperors are? I come from modern times.’
Kwak Won-hoe shouted loudly again.
“Can’t you hurry up and say hello to King Yeseong?”
‘Anyway, he’s a very high-ranking person… Damn it. When you go to Rome, you have to follow the Roman laws.’
Han Ibi quickly got down on one knee and spoke politely.
“Zhonglimei of Zhongjia meets King Yesheng.”
And after a pause, he added:
“The eyes of the lowly people were so blinded that they did not recognize the prince, and their mistake is so deep and wide that it cannot be described.”
‘Is this a good level of courtesy?…’
Then the man who introduced himself as King Yeseong said.
“good night. “Since I didn’t tell you in advance, I won’t question your rudeness from now on.”
“thank you.”
King Yeseong said.
“You should get up.”
“yes. All right.”
Han Ibi straightened her knees and stood up. But his head was still politely bowed.
King Yeseong, who saw this, said:
“Holy shit.”
‘omg! what? Damn it. ‘He’s a prince!’
“Fuck that shitty manners.”
“yes?”
“I am a warrior to the core. You could say he is a strong man wearing the guise of a prince. So, if you do something like that when we are alone, I will never deal with you again. All you have to do is look at me directly and talk to me like before. Do you understand?”
Han Ibi couldn’t figure out what the hell was going on, but she couldn’t help but look into his eyes as she answered.
“yes. All right.”
Only then did King Yesung nod his head and say that he was satisfied.
“good.”
Then he stroked his chin for a moment and said.
“Then I guess I’ll feel like giving a proper answer now. good. “What did you do on Mount Qingcheng that day?”
“I… just helped brother Jong Li-hyuk drive out the evil enemies who attacked the Qingcheng Sect.”
King Yeseong grinned and said.
“You are too humble. In fact, I heard it from Jong Ri-hyuk after that.”
“That’s too much praise.”
“Ha ha ha ha ha.”
King Yeseong suddenly laughed and spoke after a moment.
“I arrived this morning curious about how the salt society was going. “As soon as I arrived, I received a report from Manager Kwak.”
“Brother Kwak… do you mean?”
“okay. “Did you really think it was a coincidence that Director Kwak shared a room with you?”
Tiing!
Han Ibi suddenly felt a tightness in the back of her neck.
So, the person named Kwak Won-hoe… was a spy attached to him by that prince, King Yeseong or something, to keep an eye on him.
iced coffee.
Without even knowing that, I tried my best to be friendly with him as my older brother and younger brother…
so it’s literally a tantrum.
King Yesung’s remarks continued.
“It’s really awesome. Aside from being amazing. They made a huge mess every time they taught. Ha ha ha ha ha.”
“…sorry.”
“No, what do you have to be sorry about? However, the people of the Murim League must have had a hard time trying to settle it.”
“….”
Han Yi-bi thought for a moment and then spoke with difficulty as she parted her lips.
“If I may be presumptuous… I would like to ask you a question.”
“However much.”
“Isn’t it customary for the imperial family to keep their distance from martial arts?”
“I think it would be difficult to do it now because it is complicated. However, if you are asking about the imperial family joining hands with the Murim Alliance, then it is true that I proceeded with it.”
“All right. “But I wonder why you were watching me.”
Then King Yeseong answered with a somewhat unsmiling face.
“I’ll explain that to you when I decide you’re qualified.”
“You mean qualifications? If you have qualifications, what qualifications….”
“First, stick to your education. And be sure to obtain the title of Little Five Demon Dragon.”
“yes?”
Han Ibi looks at King Yesung in surprise.
But he turned his head towards Kwak Won-hoe and said,
“You can withdraw from today.”
Then Kwak Won-hoe was surprised and asked.
“But…”
King Yeseong said.
“Don’t worry, I will take good care of the Murim Alliance.”
Kwak Won-hoe said.
“All right.”
King Yeseong said to Han Ibi.
“What happened today?”
“yes?”
King Yeseong took a step closer and asked the question more clearly.
“What happened today?”
Only then did Han Ibi understand King Yeseong’s intentions and spoke.
“I just did the exercises today. “In this forest.”
Then King Yesung nodded and said with satisfaction.
“Good good. My head is spinning a bit. “Anyway, if our fate connects, we will meet again.”
“I don’t want it either.”
* * *
‘We will never meet again.’
Han Ibi made a promise to herself as she attended training for the first time in a long time.
‘How do you know whether it’s King Yeseong or not?’
A story like this never appeared in the salt sand dream in Han Ibi’s memory.
Even if something was twisted, it was twisted tightly.
You shouldn’t get caught up in this kind of misleading story.
‘I can’t even guess where it started to go wrong. Yeomsajimong is clearly supposed to be Jong Li-hyeok’s battle of revenge for his extinct family…’
After that day, Kwak Won-hoe really disappeared.
The students were told that they had returned under orders from the imperial family.
As I entered Hyeonseogak with Hyeon Gil Son-rok and others, familiar faces caught my eye.
Looking at their expressions, it seemed like they were looking at some kind of monster.
Han Ibi sat down as if nothing had happened, but for some reason she felt a stinging sensation in the back of her head.
Only Wen Wenbi and Wang Qinglin greeted him warmly, pretending to know him.
At that time, Wang Qinglin said with a puzzled expression.
“You said you received treatment, but it looks like you got a lot of sunburn.”
“Oh, that’s it… ahaha. Well, I heard that walking is good for your health. Yikes! “Chief, you’re coming in.”
The content of the training was related to ‘light attack’ among the martial arts of the Demonic Cult, and Gyodu was a person whom Han Ibi was familiar with.
It was ‘Maeng Gap-son’ who tested the light attack of Han Ibi and his party at the Murimmaeng castle tower.
* * *
As expected, it was an incredibly boring education.
After all, how could you not feel frustrated when learning how to run with your own eyes?
Taking advantage of the break, Han Yi-bi approached Jong Ri-hyuk.
It was directed at his half-brother, who had never visited him while he was sick.
Of course, we weren’t close before that, but…
“Brother. I’m here.”
Jong Li-hyuk spoke without taking his eyes off his book.
“How are you feeling?”
“I recovered.”
“Thank goodness.”
That was it.
I looked at So Eun-ri, but she was just concentrating on her studies.
Han Ibi gave up saying hello and returned to her seat.
‘Eng. They seem like cold-hearted people…’
In fact, not only them but most of the other people were focused on studying.
It seemed like everyone was so intent on obtaining the title of ‘Little Five Dragon’.
And looking at her achievements so far, Han Ibi was a threatening competitor who achieved excellent results.
‘Well… it’s the same everywhere people live. ‘Let me be patient… I am generous… I am generous…’
On the other hand, there was also an understandable side.
Because I know that the final exam to select the Little Five Dragons is just around the corner.
At the end of the last training, Heo Son-dam appeared at the church.
“ruler. everyone. I had a really hard time studying. All formal training courses have now ended.”
At that time, light murmurs and tension filled Hyeonseogak.
Heo Son-dam’s explanation continued.
“Exactly one week from now, the final selection test for the Little Five Dragons will be held.”
At that time, Guk In-rang of the Jeomchang faction raised his hand and asked.
“How will the final exam be conducted?”
Hersondam said.
“Of course… it will be reflected by adding up the scores obtained in each field. Especially among them… “The final selection test will have a very important aspect.”
This time, Wang Qinglin raised his hand and asked.
“How does the final exam work?”
Then Heo Son-dam spoke slowly.
“Detailed information will be announced at the test center in a week, so please wait a little while.”
* * *
‘A ship… This isn’t even the sea, what’s going on…’
That’s right.
Han Ibi and the students were now sharing three boats.
There was a lake named Dongrae Lake (東來湖) near Hyeonseogak.
The origin of the name was unknown, but its size was so enormous that it was difficult to tell whether it was a sea or a lake.
Han Ibi thought.
‘Shit. I thought a lake like an ocean like this only existed in that damned tidal wave, but something like that actually exists… As expected, the scale of the continent is on a different level.’
At that time, I heard Yeo Nan-ju’s voice next to me.
“Oh my goodness. “It’s a really beautiful lake, isn’t it?”
Of course, the target is Jong Ri-hyuk next to him.
But as expected, he was extremely blunt.
“Not bad.”
Yeo Nan-ju was ranked last in almost all education.
Perhaps because of that, there seemed to be no burden at all.
However, most of the students seemed very nervous.
Needless to say, the reason is to win the title of ‘So Five Dragons’, which everyone is aiming for.
At that moment, the hands of the Hwasan faction disciple who was serving as a boatman carrying Han Ibi and her group became busy.
