A Spy’s Demonic Life - Chapter 7
Only Krnovel
7.
The Demonic Cult’s Wolha Village.
Outside the circular lake in the center, where commercial and residential areas have formed, even at sunset, the area was filled with crowds and glittering glamour no less than that of Beijing.
A majestic bridge curved like a rainbow across the middle of the lake.
On top of that, colorful lanterns shine every ten steps so that it doesn’t get dark.
It makes you wonder if there is a place this well-decorated in Cheonsan.
It was only a few years ago that this place became so prosperous.
It was because of a rumor that suddenly started to spread.
‘A lake in the middle of Wolha Village covered in moonlight, Wolgwangho (月光湖). If you go there on a day when the full moon rises, you will meet your partner.’
A story that doesn’t make sense. A ridiculous tale that is so childish.
However, the spirited followers of the Demonic Cult began to gather at Wolha Village one by one.
And the revival reached its peak when the Chuisanru was built on the wide central remote island where the bridges of the Moonlight Lake converged like a mirage.
From guest houses, to kiosks, to gambling halls. A multi-purpose skyscraper.
The beautiful lantern reached out its hand, telling me to come here, and when I climbed up to the guest house and sat by the window, I could see the moonlight-covered Moonlight Lake at a glance.
At this level, even a relationship that didn’t exist before could be created.
Moreover, Rooju was not an old and boring old man, but a courtesan with peerless beauty named Chwi Hongran.
It got to the point where there were people who waited day and night just to catch a glimpse of Rouge’s face, which occasionally peeked out from the top of the skyscraper.
In this way, the Chuisunru really captured the tastes of the later generations, and thanks to that, it became a must-see attraction for the good-looking men and women of the Demonic Cult.
Of course, to the third princess, Sa Hae-ryeong, who had arrived just a moment ago, all of this was extremely vulgar.
“What the heck, you fat girl. Get out of my way!”
Whoosh! Sahae-ryeong’s head turned sharply. Then, a drunken bastard appeared, holding a gisaeng in his arms, and walking past me.
He used up all his luck in life today.
If this wasn’t the Chuisanru, and if he hadn’t been wearing the human face mask, today would have been the last day of his life.
‘On the other hand, Jang Seo, you are very unlucky today. You are the one who has to feel all these feelings of mine.’
Squeak! She entered the observation deck with silent steps.
Even though it was early evening, the first floor was already full of people. In the center, a large ginkgo tree was in full bloom all the way up to the third floor, which had an open ceiling, and there were seats set up around the round edges of each floor.
‘What a waste of time on such useless things. How pathetic.’
It is impossible for young people of the same age who are chattering away to look this stupid. People who would hardly be able to achieve their goal if they swung their swords one more time at this hour.
When Jeom So-i tried to approach, she silently raised her hand to stop him. Then, she went up to the second floor with an intimidating air.
It’s quieter than downstairs. I heard the news. Jang-seo said he usually stays here.
“hmm?”
Fortunately, it didn’t take long for him to find it. Sa Hae-ryeong raised his eyebrows, then lowered them, then walked back and sat down by the window far away.
A man who drinks alone without any side dishes.
Although he looks young for his age of twenty-eight, his appearance is so plain that if you saw him on the street, you would have passed him by.
Jang Seo, the head of the third division of the counterintelligence unit.
That was it.
‘Who are you waiting for?’
Drinking alone and just slurping. If it was going to be like this, I should have quickly found Jinsan Papa. There’s no way the world could be that peaceful. My eyes narrow in frustration.
“What would you like, sir?”
Jeomsoi approached and asked. Instead of answering, she took out a precious silver coin from her bosom without even looking at him and put it down. Jeomsoi’s eyes widened when she saw this.
Usually, there was only one case like this: a chance to get a few months’ wages for free if you answered correctly.
“Please ask.”
“Since when has the author been doing that?”
Even though no one had said it, Jeomsoi answered right away with a quizzical look.
“Hehe, well. It’s been about ten days.”
“Are you saying you’ve been like that for ten days?”
“Yes. I know him well, as he is staying in the annex operated by our company.”
“Was there a separate building in Chwiseonru? That’s the first time I’ve heard of it.”
“Only the most qualified and distinguished guests of our school can stay on the upper floor of our guesthouse. I’m sure he’s no ordinary person. If you like him, I’ll go and ask him a favor.”
what?
“You really want to die!”
Sahae-ryeong shouted and jumped up. I could feel the immense murderous intent behind his eyes. Isn’t this it? I tried to get one more nyang of silver, but my greed got the better of me. Jeomsoi hurriedly stepped back, feeling sorry while lost in thought.
But this wasn’t a problem that could be resolved at this level. Sa Hae-ryeong kept breathing heavily with a red face.
How dare you see me as someone who associates me with such a rascal? And how dare you call such a pitiful 7th-grade ghost a guest. It has now been revealed that the reputation of the Chuisunru is all in vain.
‘The more I think about it, the worse it feels. I can’t just let it go. I’m going to meet Rouge.’
It was the moment when Sahae-ryeong was about to take a cruel step.
“Young lady… … ?”
A friendly voice came from the side, and dark clouds gathered on my forehead. Nothing was going well.
“under.”
I turned my head with a sigh and saw him looking this way.
‘Jang I-seo.’
You made too much of a fuss. It’s already over. Sigh. She went to the seat opposite Jang Yi-seo with as calm an expression as possible and asked.
“Can I sit down?”
“I am not the woman I met at Jegalseo-gwan.”
“You remember.”
“I can’t forget a face once I’ve seen it. Especially if it’s a strange face. Could it be that you came to me because you fell in love with me?”
“That mouth still bites.”
Druk. Sa Hae-ryeong frowned and sat down in his chair. Then Jang Yi-seo smiled brightly and said.
“Judging from the texture, it doesn’t seem like you came here because you liked it. What’s going on here?”
“What’s going on? Are you talking to me now?”
“Why? Is it weird?”
Ha. Sa Hae-ryeong wrinkled his nose and secretly picked up the chopsticks that were left unused on the table. Up until now, they were just a means of eating food, but now that he was holding them, they were a secret weapon that would pierce that arrogant tongue.
therefore.
“You’d better watch what you say.”
“Okay.”
“You… … didn’t understand what I was saying at all.”
“It’s an unwritten rule that when a man and a woman meet in Wolha Village, they start by talking. Especially if she’s a woman who came to a strange man’s place without his consent, shouldn’t she be able to tolerate that?”
“Why should I put myself through that?”
“What else can’t you do? Can you be a princess wearing a human face mask?”
She paused for a moment at the unexpected question. But the corners of her mouth quickly rose. You managed to figure it out. There was nothing to hide anyway. She was about to answer yes.
“That’s ridiculous. The noble and noble daughter of the third princess of the world came to Wolha Village to find a partner. And she was so embarrassed that she even wore a mask. Isn’t that ridiculous?”
Hahaha, that’s right. The guests who have been sitting here and there since the moment they arrived are laughing and playing along.
“under?”
Thanks to that, Sa Hae-ryung was so dumbfounded that he was speechless. Could it be that he knew this and was doing it on purpose? His doubts were mixed with his doubts.
But it’s still not surprising.
Jang Yi-seo gulped down the alcohol in one gulp and smiled as he spoke.
“So. What do I do now?”
What are you doing?
“Why are you asking me that?”
“Why?”
Jang Seo slowly opened his penetrating eyes and spoke in a whisper.
“You’re Jinsanpapa. You’re my assistant examiner.”
Boom! Even though he was wearing a face mask, his eyes grew as big as lanterns.
Since when… … How… … . No, what kind of kid is this?
But there is such a guy.
That’s the chapter.
*
Before we knew it, the clouds that had been covering the moon had moved away, and a full moon had appeared on Wolgwangho Lake.
Sa Hae-ryeong shook his head without hiding his surprised expression and said.
“How did you know?”
“I was waiting for you.”
“Jinsanpapa?”
Jang Yi-seo nodded and drank the alcohol he had poured in one gulp.
To be exact, it’s not Jinsanpapa, it’s you. I’ve been waiting for the third princess, Sahaeryung.
Of course, she had no way of knowing that. But his answer was enough to shake her heart.
“Don’t be impatient. I’ll tell you everything.”
Oh. Sahae-ryeong thought, “Oh no.” When fighting with an opponent, composure is the basic rule. For a moment, he became impatient, and this was read. He had made a truly foolish mistake.
‘They call him a mad dog. He’s definitely not a fool.’
As the evaluation changes, the attitude also changes. She raised her gaze, which had been looking down on her. Then Jang Yi-seo told Jeom So-yi to bring new wine and a glass.
“Here it is.”
He poured new wine into a new glass and handed it to her with a smile.
“That’s what I used to do in the counterintelligence unit. Investigating, finding things, questioning people. That’s kind of what it is. But Jinsanpapa… … .”
Jang Yiseo shook his head. He was saying that it was an illusion and a trap.
Sa Hae-ryeong stared blankly at Jang Yi-seo and emptied the drink in front of him.
It was a simple gesture, but it had a big meaning. Because the Three Princesses didn’t accept drinks from just anyone. It was like an announcement that the test was about to begin.
And the first head passed.
The guy moved surprisingly carefully and waited calmly.
I liked it more because it was unexpected.
“Even so, you should have come to me.”
This is the second test.
Jang Yi-seo nodded without objection to her words. Whatever Jin San-papa’s identity, he was the examiner and he was a low-ranking official who had come to take the test. Therefore, as a subordinate, he should have been polite and sought it out first.
Jang Seo-ga stood up politely and took the lottery ticket, saying:
“That’s true. I apologize for being presumptuous.”
This kid. Sa Hae-ryung’s eyes are getting narrower. He looks stubborn, but he is quick to admit it. That means he has a keen eye and determination.
“Follow me.”
At her command, Jang Seo-ga chuckled again and poured her a drink. Then she took a second drink.
I passed this time too.
The conversation between the two people became more serious in both expression and tone.
“Why are you the assistant of the Seven Princes? Do you know what that means?”
“It’s really hard for someone of humble origins to rise to the top. So if there’s an opportunity, I try to tackle anything.”
“That’s an honest but sinister answer.”
“But there’s no such thing as half-heartedness. My motto is to pay for the meal.”
“A third-class ghost is a high-ranking position. It’s a completely different world from where you are now, a mere team leader. What can you do there?”
“Well… … This much should be enough for a year.”
Jang Yi-seo holds up three fingers.
“What do you mean?”
“Three fingers out of seven. I’m sure you’ll be able to fit in there.”
Ha. Haha. Sa Hae-ryung burst into laughter. This is beyond arrogance, it’s madness. Doesn’t it mean that he has the confidence to defeat one of his brothers?
