Episode #92. new challenge.
Youin hardened his face slightly.
Because she realized why she didn’t ask Limon for help.
“Princess, those words…”
“As a princess of the Black Dragon Clan, these are not words to say.”
Li Qingyu laughed quietly.
If it’s just for the Black Dragon clan, it’s enough to just ask Limon to defeat the beast.
In that case, he would be able to take care of the safety and profit of the clan, as well as strengthen Li Qingyu’s own position.
“But as a soon-to-be-married swordswoman, it’s a natural question.”
But what about Limon’s point of view?
It’s better to be on the sidelines.
As it is, even if Wang Feng solves the evil beasts, he can leave the Shanghai royal family in debt.
If things go wrong and Limon has no choice but to step in, he could benefit even more.
“Youin, which do you think I should give priority to, the position of a princess or the position of a bride?”
Loyalty of the Black Dragon Clan.
Limon’s trust.
If you put those two incompatible things on a scale and have to pick just one, which one would be wise to get?
For a while, look at Li Qingyu, who asked calmly, with a strange face.
Youin smiled bitterly.
“Of course, the swordsmith’s trust.”
“That answer is a bit unexpected. Of course I thought you had to get both.”
To Li Qingyu, who was looking at him with eyes that seemed really unexpected, Youin answered calmly.
“If you chase two rabbits, you won’t catch even one, and you can’t compare a dragonfly that travels 90,000 li with 10,000 sparrows.”
“You are wise.”
Was it a fairly satisfactory answer?
Li Qingyu smiled and opened his mouth quietly as he picked up the papers again.
“Anyway, I can’t wait to continue to lose money like this, so I guess I need to take action.”
A phone call came to Li Qingyu while he was pondering how to stop the beast.
The moment I heard that bell.
Li Qingyu, who had completely forgotten about her earlier worries, answered the phone with a smile on her face.
“Did you call because you wanted to hear the voice of the lovely bride-to-be, Swordsman?”
“I’m sorry. I would have been very happy.”
“So what are you doing?”
“yes yes. …yes?”
“Is that really possible?”
“It can’t be. I was just so surprised that I casually asked.”
“Okay then I’ll prepare it right away.”
After the call, Li Qingyu smiled bitterly.
Then, I turned to Youin, who had taken a step back to avoid interrupting the conversation.
“No action needed.”
* * *
“Is the princess here?”
“Sorry for being late. You waited a long time, right?”
“…isn’t that what you’re talking about after less than 10 minutes of calling?”
“Because time away from my beloved Nanggun-nim always feels like three half-naked autumns.”
“Isn’t it the original one of the four and three chu?”
“It is a lack of love.”
“…if I’m overflowing with love, I’ll become a mummy alive.”
Looking at Li Qingyu, who smiles but is not obstructed in answering, he shakes his head excitedly once.
Limon asked casually.
“Did you bring what you asked for?”
“yes.”
Youin nodded coolly and beckoned. Dozens of maids and housemen who had entered with boxes quietly put the boxes down and left.
“As requested by the swordsmith, these are items of the ‘that line’ that can be obtained generally.”
“Hmm, there are more than I thought.”
“I think it’s because the items of different specifications, even in the same series, were imported redundantly.”
“okay?”
“If you think there are too many, I’ll try to narrow down some more.”
“No. It would have been difficult to get all this in such a short period of time, but there is no need to deliberately guess.”
Limon checked the contents of the box and nodded in satisfaction.
Although Youin said that most of the items were duplicates, the fact that he had obtained so many types in such a short period of time was more than expected.
Seeing Li Mon like that, Li Qingyu tilted his head.
“Then why did you ask me to prepare?”
“Hmm, did you call me when I was busy?”
“no. All I have left is time. I just think it could have been done if you had Chao ask you to do this.”
Youin, who had been helping Li Qingyu with the paperwork until just a moment ago, was deeply impressed.
To say such an obvious lie without disturbing her complexion even once is our princess!
Are you not aware of such a situation?
Or are you ignoring it even though you know it?
Limon calmly opened his mouth.
“That stupid fool is wandering around like crazy, saying he’s reviewing your affiliates’ security system. Aren’t you bothered to call me and make me work?”
“It is as you say. Talent must be used in the right place.”
“Yes, you know something.”
[…No, I think that’s a completely wrong use of the word ‘right place’?]
Which of the right places falls under the crazy act of having the chairman run errands because it’s annoying to call a secretary who has been out of the office?
You-in made a strange expression, and Yuna-kyung openly begged for a joke.
However, Li Qingyu didn’t care about the two people’s eyes at all.
He just made an interesting face.
“How do you plan to use this to find the beasts?”
“It’s not that great. I was just taking your advice into consideration.”
“yes? Any advice from me?”
Li Qingyu tilted his head.
Although she was clever, she couldn’t remember what Limon was referring to.
Limon, who put her in trouble, lifted a box.
clattering!
The moment the box was turned over.
All sorts of things spilled out of it, including decks of playing cards, pencils, dice, roulettes, darts, lot boxes, and pirate near misses.
It was truly a pile of junk.
So were the other boxes.
There are only differences in size, shape and material, but most of them were similar.
“Let’s see what’s suitable… is this enough?”
With all ten boxes turned upside down like that, it took a while to rummage through a corner of the practice room without paying attention to the contents.
Looks like you finally found what you were looking for.
Limon returned with something out and handed it out right away.
“Take it.”
“yes.”
[…Yes?]
Li Qingyu with a smile, Youin with a mysterious expression, and Yunakyung with a dumb face.
What Limon gave you.
In other words, Yuna-kyung, who took the thin stick used to strike the triangle in her beak, blinked her eyes and then asked.
[manager? Why would you give me this?]
“Why would you give me the triangle pole? Give it a shot.”
[…putting aside why you should do that, there’s no triangle here?]
“There are a lot of things to knock on instead.”
Yuna-kyung saw the objects Limon pointed at and opened her beak.
[Wait. So, do you think we’ll start pounding all these junk things with this?]
“Yes, it doesn’t matter if you just ignore things like order and rhythm. Instead, just tap everything evenly at least once.”
[Why?!]
“That way, we can know the beasts’ next target.”
[What kind of logic is that to go to a temple and donate money to ask for an answer to this year’s college entrance exam?!]
“That was a fraudulent incident by a player with the Prediction skill, wasn’t it? Thanks to that, there were over 100 students with perfect scores for the CSAT that year alone, maybe?”
[It was 307 to be exact. No, that’s not important right now anyway?]
Yuna-kyung jumped up and down.
Limon is doing something bizarre, because even as a familiar girl, she couldn’t readily accept such an eccentricity.
Ting- Ting-ding.
“Can I do this?”
“Come on, you hit it well.”
“I am also a foster family member. I know how to do basic shiseo gold coins.”
One problem.
Unlike Yuna-kyung, there was a girl who started tapping junk without hesitation.
Are you excited to hear the compliment?
Li Qingyu lightly taps on miscellaneous things as if he were playing in sync with the rhythm.
Tang Tang.
“I’ve played drums a few times before, but this is a bit awkward.”
“There is no need to try to make a good sound. Rather, the messier it is, the better.”
Is it because of extreme loyalty?
In spite of her old age and neat suit, Yo-in, who was sitting cross-legged on the floor, followed Li Qing-yu and started pounding junk.
“What are you doing? You’re not going to hit me too soon.”
[…Ah! Now I don’t even know!]
Crack! jjaejaejae.
I lost my sense of humor and even looked at the two for a while.
After hearing Limon’s urging, Yuna-kyung ended up biting on the stick with her beak and started running wild.
‘Hmm.’
Li Qingyu, who makes quite plausible sounds while knocking on miscellaneous things to see if it is an empty word to say that he has learned Shiseo Gold Coin.
Like a master of the Seven Dragons, Yo Woo-in has a rough sound, but still sounds a heavy rhythm in line with Li Qing-yu as much as possible.
Yuna-kyung makes a very shattering sound, either because she doesn’t understand it or because it’s hard to hit something with her beak in her mouth.
Take a moment to watch them closely.
Limon muttered to himself.
‘It’s a mess.’
If Yuna-gyeong had heard it, it was something she would have spit out and ran wild, saying, “Isn’t this what the team leader ordered me to do?”
‘I thought it would cause dissonance if I knocked on it all at once, but that princess is so talented, it’s a problem.’
The mess Dan Limon was talking about didn’t mean the noise of the mess.
To put it bluntly, it was rather the opposite.
“It doesn’t matter.”
For a while, I was immersed in my thoughts.
Limon shook his head lightly.
Then, he opened the box in the back of the practice room, grabbed the dark violin inside, and continued talking quietly.
“Because I can fill in what’s lacking with this.”
snug fit.
The moment you hold the violin.
A body naturally positioned to play by means of a curse.
Like an arrow measured by a string pulled tight, Limon thought as he stood still, on the verge of spitting out the performance.
‘Honestly, I don’t have myself.’
When predicting the movement of the pleural fluid.
Limon was confident.
As a sword master himself, there was no way that the predictions that applied the swordsmanship of the yam dragon slaughter sword, which could pierce the principles of the universe, were wrong.
But this time?
I wasn’t sure, and I doubted myself whether this method would work.
‘I can’t help it, but I have no choice but to try it.’
Nonetheless, Limon eventually took up the violin.
It wasn’t just because of a sense of crisis that he didn’t know how big the damage from the beasts would be if he didn’t do anything about it.
A small realization gained while playing Jung-gu Heating to Yujin’s messy song.
It was because I was interested in a ‘possibility’ I found in it.
Of course it’s just a possibility.
It’s closer to a delusion than an idea.
Hundred upon hundred will end in failure.
Even trying feels like a stupid waste of time.
‘Originally, the more reckless the challenge, the more fun it is.’
However, rather than being hesitant by the burden of failure, Limon willingly pulled the bow, feeling motivated by the challenge itself.
The moment the performance started.
Gee-ee-!
All the possibilities of the world in the form of sound exploded from the deep-dark violin.
