A Spy’s Demonic Life - Chapter 9

9.

The Sahae Spirits have no hope in this war of succession… … .

“Why?”

“For now, it may seem like the Gwangryong Party Leader is supporting the previous leader, Narak Bojo, but that won’t last long. The Grand Duke and the Duke of Yi will be the first to try to bring her down.”

Hmm. A shallow breath was let out. Even in the Murong family, Chu Honglan was a woman who had been known since childhood for her outstanding intelligence. There was a very high possibility that her words would soon become reality.

Besides, Jang Seo also had the same thought. At most, it would be half a year. The first successor to fall within that time would be Sa Hae Ryeong.

‘But that’s until I step forward. Until the Seven Princes are established, Sahaeryung must serve as a shield.’

There are more than one or two things to do. Each and every one of them is extremely difficult. Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s impossible.

“What happened to that guy?”

When Jang Yiseo changed the subject and asked about that guy, Chu Hongran quietly turned her head out the window.

The curtain was hung low so that it was hard to see, but when I pulled it back slightly, I could clearly see the guy not too far away.

“What are you looking at? Do you want to die? Hahahaha!”

A hopeless rascal who gets drunk late at night and starts a fight like a brat.

“Mao… … .”

The corners of Jang Yi-seo’s mouth went up.

Yes, that’s right. Mao the Seven Princes.

The reason Jang I-seo stayed at this Chwiseonru for over ten days was not just because he was waiting for Jinsan Papa.

Chook. Jang Seo-ga, who had put up the curtain again, lifted the empty glass on the table. Then Chu Hong-ran politely filled the glass and said.

“Although he is a Seven Prince, he is a bad person who usually hangs out with troublemakers. The sacred relic of the leader who allowed all entry and exit within the Demonic Cult was returned, and support was also cut off. Eating and drinking at the Chuseonru is allowed… … . The damage to the Juru is not insignificant.”

“Just keep accepting it for now. I’ll accept it all eventually.”

“Yes. I will report in detail about the Seven Princes soon.”

“Believe me.”

Jang Yiseo snickered and turned his head out the window. Chu Hongran lowered her head to hide her slurred mouth. She was curious. Why had he been so interested in Chilgongja for the past few days?

Of course, there were many other things I was curious about.

Although they are followers, they call the Cheonmasin Church a devil’s cult, and they call the leaders and sub-leaders by names that should not even be mentioned.

As expected, it was a promise between the two that they would never ask about Jang Seo. And even that was to protect him from danger that could come at any time.

That’s why Chu Hongran always waited. Until he spoke.

“I’ll be joining that guy as his assistant soon.”

As if he had read her mind, his mouth opened wide. Chu Hongran raised her head and was unable to hide her joy.

“Is that possible?”

When Hongran asked with a childlike smile, Jang Il-seo also smiled and answered.

“Three days later. I’ll be going in.”

Wow. Hongran let out a genuine exclamation. How on earth did he manage to enter Chilsogung? I’ve been watching him for a long time, but he really is someone whose end is unknown. Perhaps, in addition to Chwiseonru, the seeds he has sown have spread to various places.

“Of course, before that. I should at least say hello.”

Jang Yi-seo’s eyes sparkled.

Now it’s a one-on-one showdown with Mao.

– The Seven Palaces of the Demonic Cult’s Wolha Village.

A dense bamboo forest appears when you pass Hongye Bridge to the south from Chwiseonru. And deep within it, a small but not too big manor stands alone.

It was a forbidden area that no one could enter, and it was the Seven Little Palaces where the Seven Princes, Mao, resided.

It was called a palace, but there were fewer guests than ants, and the only people who came and went were servants sent by the Four Sea Spirits who came to clean the place occasionally.

It was natural.

Why would a loser be a loser?

The middle-aged messenger who came to deliver the message of the Three Princesses today really did not want to come here.

“Say it again.”

I guess it’s time for the terms and conditions now.

Just looking at his appearance, he has a tall and manly appearance that makes you think of a prince from a noble family.

What about his build? He is tall enough to be strong, and has strong, mountain-like shoulders.

Red hair like a lotus flower that reveals the heavy gaze and forehead is a bonus.

In short, Honam is an area that is not lacking anywhere.

“Who is coming?”

However, he threw away his manners and left the guest standing outside, kicked open the sliding door, and lay down in the hallway to greet him.

He was truly the arrogant one. He was the Seven Princes Mao.

“So, this is a message from the Third Princess telling me that the assistant will arrive in two days, so please welcome him warmly. Yes… … .”

The lion muttered with a frightened expression on his face and his neck curled into a turtle shape. Then Mao suddenly got up and rushed towards him.

“Ugh!”

The startled lion stretched its neck, and Mao wrapped his arms around it, squeezing its head tightly into his armpit and shouting.

“What, assistant? Say it again.”

“Ugh, no, over there… … The third princess will be accompanied by an assistant… … Ugh.”

“That doesn’t make sense. You want me to be your assistant? And it’s not just anyone else, it’s you, my older sister? Hahaha!”

“W-W-W-W-W! Breath! Ugh!”

Pak! Mao pushed the lion and wadangtang! It escaped for a long time and rolled around in a corner. It didn’t even have any internal energy, but it had incredible strength. The lion let out a groan. Then.

“In place.”

Mao went back up to the floor with an indifferent expression, sat down cross-legged, and gave an order. At this, the lion, with a sad expression on his face, ran to his previous seat and stood at attention.

“Okay. What’s your name?”

When Mao asked indifferently, the lion answered hurriedly, sweating profusely.

“Jang Il-seo. Yes, my name is Jang Il-seo.”

“Jang I-su… … . It’s the first time I’m hearing about it.”

“It’s not Jang Isu, it’s Jang Iseop.”

“What should I do? Where is your family?”

This dog… … .

“He is a commoner from the suburbs.”

“Commoners? Hahaha! Are you citizens of heaven?”

“It’s not that cloth… … .”

“Are you stupid? I’m joking. Even a commoner would have an inheritance, right?”

“Isn’t it property? I’m not here to die, so an inheritance is a bit… … .”

When Mao glared at him fiercely, the lion quickly apologized and lowered its head. Mao snorted and asked again.

“Even if it’s a thousand things, there must be a position. Not just anyone can be an assistant. What? Can you be the head of the clan?”

The lion tilted his head and answered cautiously.

“Not to the level of the head of the household, but a bit lower.”

“What? Unfair?”

“Not quite the vice-principal, but a little bit lower than that… … .”

“What? Hahaha! It’s going downhill endlessly, just like me. What, Daeju?”

“Not to the point of Daeju… … .”

“What… … . Could it be the deputy commander?”

“Not to the extent of a vice-principal.”

“Hey, you little punk! What’s lower than that!”

“I’m the leader. The third division chief of the counterintelligence unit.”

Aaaah! Mao’s scream burst out, and wow! Even the wardrobe fell down. The lion covered his ears and shut his eyes tightly.

How much time has passed like that?

Mao, who was very angry, barely exhaled and said.

“But since it’s the guy my older sister sent me, I should at least accept it, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. That seems right.”

“Yes. Yes. That’s right. You have a point. Yes. I’ll take it for now… … I’ll strip you of everything you own and kick you out naked.”

“Huh? Isn’t that stealing?”

“What does it matter? He’s my assistant. Then everything he has is mine. Right?”

Yeah, that’s right, you little shit.

The lion nodded his head repeatedly, as if he was in a daze. He was not good at communicating. The shortcut to longevity was to agree with others and then disappear.

Mao also waved his hand, as if he was satisfied with the answer. He was telling them to get out of here.

The lion slowly backed away, as if he might change his mind. And then he was about to turn around.

Mao said, staring blankly at the ceiling.

“Tell your sister I said thank you.”

“Yes? Yes.”

“And leave it behind.”

“What… … .”

“The pocket inside your clothes. Leave it behind.”

Oh, crazy. The lion put his hand into his pocket with an embarrassed expression. Then he took out his pocket and took out a couple of coins and asked.

“how much…….”

“Do you want to take your clothes off?”

“no…….”

The lion put down the pouch with his shaking hands and turned around to run away from the bamboo grove.

He’s even crazier than I’ve ever heard.

One thing I really don’t understand is how a crazy guy like that would kill people without permission. If that’s the case…

The trembling lion’s eyes quickly become cold as it leaves the forest.

“You would have died by my hands a long time ago.”

Whoosh! The lion skinned my face.

It’s a face mask.

It was even more elaborate than what the Three Princesses had written.

It is rare to find someone in the Demonic Cult who can create a work of this caliber.

No, that’s all.

“Dare to take my money in pairs!”

Jang Seo, a spy of the Murim Alliance who lives and dies for money.

No, it was Jang Seo who was to become the assistant.

He came here earlier, disguised as a lion.

“Yeah. I didn’t think it would be easy for you.”

The mission given to him from the rock carving was not to be his assistant, but to make him a cult leader.

But there’s no hope for such a rotten, mentally ill bastard.

So there is only one way left.

“You should get some education from your brother.”

Shh. The corners of Jang Yi-seo’s mouth went up wickedly.

Mao, the devil’s scoundrel and the Seven Princes.

Jang Seo, the best agent of the Murim Alliance’s rock carvings.

The two men’s murderous cohabitation began now.

* * *

– Rock carving of the Hubei branch of the Murim Alliance.

Jegal So-mi was sitting in a small, dark room, taking out the letters that were piled up in a sack one by one and looking through them.

Not only was the content diverse, but the methods of expression were also diverse.

From Braille to letters that can only be seen after dissolving ink powder, all of these were secret messages sent by agents of the rock carvings from various places.

Of course, this wasn’t sent directly. It arrived after going through numerous processes.

‘No, but why won’t you turn on the light? My eyes are killing me.’

Jegal So-mi closed his eyes tightly and then opened them, letting out a deep sigh. Even though he had mastered martial arts and could read this much, he didn’t have even one of those common night magic spells. His welfare was in shambles.

Moreover, why do they keep telling me to wear a mask?

“It’s stuffy.”

I don’t know if there were other people inside, but the only ones allowed to enter the main camp were her and her grandfather, Zhuge Liang.

It’s crazy how they take off their masks and hold hands when going home like this.

“Should I just change jobs? If I keep doing this, won’t my path to marriage be blocked?”

It’s a reasonable thought. Moreover, I was starting to get tired of this. It’s not like this is new news.

“hmm?”

It was then that she tilted her head as she was reading the Braille on the secret letter with her hands without thinking.

Then, with a startled expression on his face, he took off his mask and carefully traced the Braille with both hands again.

It was just two words that shocked her.

【Entering the palace.】

It’s number 103. It was a letter he had sent after a very long time since he had been assigned a mission.

“Entering the palace? Are you saying you really entered the Chilso Palace? Already?”

It was shocking. How long had it been since they sent out the mission, and they had already entered the small palace that was designated as a forbidden area?

Thump thump. My heart, which had been lying still from boredom, started beating faster.

“What? You’re not really trying to make the Seven Princes into a cult leader, are you? Hey, no way. Is that possible?”

His mission, which he had thought would be absolutely impossible even after sending him on his mission… … began to move little by little.
