#Call me hyung
Jegal So-mi answered with a sigh.
“There was a survivor among Wang Ye’s entourage. So even before I arrived, rumors about the Neungga-gyeong had spread like wildfire.”
Jang Yi-seo’s eyes sparkled.
Their original purpose was not the Neungga-gyeong, but the chaos caused by the Neungga-gyeong.
Although it is not certain, there is a possibility that he was intentionally kept alive.
“And this Yongmohwa… … I came here to find out too.”
Jegal So-mi awkwardly smiles as she glances at the painting on the table.
I never dreamed that I would see you again like this.
‘Especially because they are so different.’
As I glanced at the book, I saw a face that seemed to be not much older than me.
I was embarrassed so I couldn’t watch it properly, but the more I watched it, the better it seemed.
He opened his mouth slightly with a red face for no reason.
“It’s much better now than before… … .”
“They’ll think I’m dead. That’s why I’m wearing this disguise.”
“Yes? Yes! That’s right!”
What the heck, all of a sudden?
“Did you have something to say?”
“No! There isn’t!”
This guy’s mouth is the enemy. Jegal So-mi lowered his head in embarrassment. Jang Yi-seo continued to speak seriously without paying any attention.
“Anyway, only you two and those guys know this.”
“Then again, there must be a blood cult behind it… … .”
Jang Seo nodded.
“It’s clear that something is being planned in Cheonghae.”
“You really don’t give me any time to rest.”
“Didn’t the Murim Alliance come out to investigate?”
“It is like that externally, but I understand that a temporary headquarters has been established in Sacheon Branch.”
Of course. It can’t just be. Just in case, they’re setting up shop just to the south and waiting.
“Then what about Shaolin? I heard they were going to take care of this.”
“That’s true, but in reality, Shin Seung is moving alone. If there were many people moving, it would only increase the confusion and it would not look good… … .”
As expected, he is a big adult. It is a thoughtful decision. That is why I am more worried.
“Then do you know where it is now?”
“I heard you are in Seomse.”
If you are in Seomseo, there is a volcanic crater.
A sigh of relief was let out. So, at least Shinseung is safe.
Then, all we have to do is quickly find the blood cult and eliminate them.
“Is it possible that the Blood Cult is after Shaolin?”
“It’s the most promising for now. It’s the place that will react the most when the Neungga-gyeong appears.”
Jegal So-mi seemed to be thinking for a moment, then said with shining eyes.
“There is an information dealer in Cheonghae who deals with rock carvings. Cheongha-ru (靑河樓). It looks like an ordinary tower, but he is well-versed in the things that happen here. I will also look into it to see if anyone from Shaolin has ever been here.”
“I would appreciate it if you could do that. But be careful. You never know where the Blood Cult might be hiding.”
“Yes, I will.”
Jegal So-mi smiled brightly and nodded.

Jang Yishu came out of Jegal Somi’s room, pulled up his mask, and took a shallow breath.
It was nice that we decided what to do and ended the conversation, but thinking back, too much time had passed.
‘Mao would think it’s strange.’
I started to worry too late. But the moment I got down to the first floor, I realized that it was a needless worry.
“You’re here? Hehehehe!”
“Are you here… … .”
Before we knew it, there were about a dozen bottles of alcohol scattered from the table to the floor, and the two boys’ faces were as red as carrots.
‘You two have drunk all of this so far?’
I’m so speechless. No, but do you have money?
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to drink this much… … .”
“No, that’s fine. Just sit down.”
When Seon-yu tried to stand up in embarrassment, he shook his head and pushed down his shoulder. Soon, when he approached the drunken Mao, he opened his eyes and said.
“Oh, where have you been and now you’re back? Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you?! This guy called Hyung. He’s really into it. This is a challenge for the subject and object!”
Are you saying this knowing what your brother means?
“You’re very drunk. Get up and go to bed.”
“No. I’m going to drink all night! Hey, you punk. You know what? What kind of person is this guy called Hyung?”
What am I? Jang Seo-ga narrowed his eyes, and Seon-yu raised his eyebrows as if he was interested.
“The guy who originally sent an assassin to kill me… … Ugh!”
“What a crazy guy!” he said firmly to Seon-yu, covering Mao’s mouth.
“That has never happened.”
“Let go! You bastard who sent assassins to kill all my friends… … Ugh!”
Don’t shake your pupils. That has never happened before.
“I say again, it’s not me.”
“……yes.”
What should I do with this cool atmosphere?
“Uhehehe! But that son of a bitch isn’t my brother anymore. I completely destroyed him. Now my brother is… … That’s him. My real brother. My family that I won’t abandon.”
Mao glances at Zhang Yishu with renewed pride in his eyes.
At this, Seon-yu felt envious. And Jang-seo felt sorry for Seon-yu when he saw her like that.
There were three people in the same space, but strangely heading in different directions.
“Ha, that feels good. Hehe.”
Boom! Mao, who was chatting excitedly, hits his head and faints.
An awkward silence flowed, and Seonyu smiled awkwardly and said.
“I guess my brother really likes Daehyeop.”
“I see… … .”
“Yes. Then you two go in and rest comfortably.”
Seonyu smiled affectionately and got up to take the lottery ticket.
Zhang Yi also nodded with effort. He would like to talk more, but… …. Looking at Mao, it was not the right situation.
The moment he was about to walk with Mao on his back.
From behind, the sound of Seonyu alone filling a glass with alcohol could be heard.
It means that I can’t stay in the same room as Jegal So-mi, so I will stay here alone.
Eventually, the steps came to a halt and a shallow sigh was let out.
Then he turned around and said.
“Do you want to go to sleep?”
*
‘What on earth am I doing?’
Seonyu, who had followed her into the room without thinking, stood frozen like a statue and frowned.
I followed him as if I was possessed by the words telling me to go to sleep, but no matter how much I thought about it, this was not it.
‘I was given the mission to protect Lady Jegal. But I ended up following someone I don’t even know.’
I feel a sense of guilt. Honestly, I don’t even know why I came here. I just felt like I had to. Strangely enough, I feel like I have to follow everything.
He was originally an ugly duckling known among the Hwasan faction’s disciples for not listening to his superiors.
Why does my heart feel so shaky?
I was about to speak up when I realized that this wasn’t true.
“Use this bed.”
Jang Seo-ga said, nodding to one of the two bedrooms.
The other one is already lying down with Mao, so that’s all that’s left.
“Then, Your Majesty… … .”
“I can’t sleep.”
Jang Seo laughs and takes off his mask.
‘brother……?!’
At that moment, Seonyu saw his face for the first time and the image of her brother came to mind.
I’m not sure, but I somehow want to see more and feel attached to it.
While I was lost in thought, Jang Yi-seo left the room and called Jegal So-mi to talk to her, then came back and said.
“I told you in advance, young lady, so you wouldn’t worry.”
“No, not like that… … .”
“I’m telling you to take it easy.”
Suddenly I feel like a child. But strangely, I don’t feel any rejection.
Seonyu followed Jang Yiseo with a helpless expression.
Then, I suppressed my rapidly beating heart and looked at him clearly.
Because we were separated when I was so young, the thought of seeing my brother’s face was almost an illusion.
But somehow, I felt like if I met my brother now, he would look exactly like that.
“It’s nice to see the close friendship.”
“Is that so?”
Then Jang-i sat down at the table and smiled.
My relationship with Mao was so complicated that it was hard to define. But now I can’t deny it. We have become really close.
“You… … .”
“Oh, my name is Seonyu. Just call me Seonyu.”
“Yeah. Seonyu, I think you have siblings too.”
Jang Il-seo approached and sat down across from Seon-yu and asked her a question. Although he looked calm on the outside, he was actually very nervous inside while asking her the question.
How did you live? How hard was it? Who helped you? And who were you close to?
There were so many things I wanted to know, but it felt quite strange to ask the questions I hadn’t been able to ask for over a decade.
“You are good… people.”
“That’s fortunate.”
“yes?”
“Ah, originally, the more successful someone is, the more people there are who are jealous and envious.”
Jang I-seo smiled brightly. Seon-yu, who realized belatedly that he was telling her that she was great, let out an awkward laugh.
“Then, Your Majesty… … .”
“Call me hyung.”
“Is that okay?”
When Jang I-seo smiled happily, Seon-yu also nodded with a smile on her face.
“Yes, hyung… … . So, hyung, that guy is your only brother?”
“There’s one more.”
“I can see from your smiling face that you care a lot.”
“Yes. No matter where I am, I always think of you. I feel sorry for you when you are so far away. I just hope you are doing well. Yes.”
Jang Yi-seo’s words touched my heart deeply. They felt even greater because we shared the same feelings.
I didn’t resent my brother for leaving for me; I felt sorry, grateful, and just hoped he would stay healthy.
“You are a good older brother.”
“Not at all. It’s just my heart. I haven’t been able to visit you for a long time because I was busy. So I made you go through a hard time alone. I’m always sorry about that.”
“Then why don’t you tell me now?”
“That’s what it should be. It’s not easy.”
“Why?”
Jang Seo smiled silently. Although he didn’t know what was hidden behind his smile, Seon Yu hoped that his feelings right now would reach Awoo.
I, too, was always curious about what my missing brother was thinking and how he was living.
“When we meet again, please tell me that you missed me. Then I think I’ll understand.”
“……okay.”
Jang Yiseo nodded with a hushed voice. Seon Yu forced a smile and spoke in the awkward atmosphere.
“Still, you are a good older brother. You think of your younger brothers like this.”
“He’s not a good guy. You saw him earlier. He knocked him out.”
“haha.”
A hearty laugh escaped my lips without me knowing. I’m not the type to laugh this loudly, no matter who I’m with. I was the one who laughed and was surprised.
‘A person I’m strangely drawn to.’
In the warm atmosphere, Jang-i patted Seon-yu on the shoulder and said.
“It’s late. You must be tired. Get some rest.”
“What about your brother?”
“I told you, I can’t sleep.”
Is that true? Jang Seo, who was sitting cross-legged by the window and meditating, looked at me with a sense of apology.
Seonyu felt grateful for his consideration once again, politely accepted the lottery ticket, and headed to bed.
And the chapter is… … .
‘I’m sorry, Yuna. I missed you.’
I sincerely apologized.
He promised that he would definitely return once he finished all the missions.
It was a sad night when the hearts of the two brothers were close but could not reach each other.
