“What Your Excellency Jang meant by ‘becoming friends’… …isn’t he asking you to listen to Changryongdo’s words first?”
“That’s what Rouge thinks too?! As expected, this kid can talk! From the moment I held him, he felt cheap.”
Haha, that’s not what I meant. Hongran laughed in embarrassment and added again.
“They say that the language of swords is made up of dots and lines. Cutting, stabbing. The length of the blade that is created then is their language.”
To be exact, this is what I heard from my father and head of the household, Sword Saint Mo Yong-hak.
“oh……?!”
“So, isn’t listening to Changryongdo’s words like telling us to follow him? If we continue to follow the flow of the blade, we might be able to figure out where it’s headed next.”
“Oh?!”
Mao’s eyes were wide.
That makes perfect sense. No matter how wild you are, if you know how to move in advance, there’s no reason to be foolishly dragged around.
You may be able to hit harder, or you may be able to know this and change direction.
That’s it, you can actually handle this guy.
“It’s just my imperfect opinion.”
“No. It sounds plausible. It’s Rouge Tianzhen?!”
“thank you.”
Mao looked at her again. She seemed humble, but there was more than one thing strange about her.
“Come to think of it, it was when the slaughterhouse guys came in before.”
Aww. Chu Hongran was somewhat surprised by the sudden change of topic.
Did I pretend to know too much? My feet were numb because I had a lot to hide.
“All the guys who went to the Chuiseonru were dead, right? I heard there was even a third-ranking person among them.”
It certainly was.
At the time, everyone was so shocked that they just hushed it up and passed by, but clearly, the third-ranking slaughterhouse master, Seokwol Jinhuabin, was among the corpses. And she was in a gruesome state. She was a famous master that even Mao knew about.
“This is suspicious. If you look closely, it’s not an ordinary rouge, is it?”
Mao frowned and frowned. Qu Honglan swallowed hard with a hardened face and said.
“If it’s not ordinary, then what… … .”
“It must be an unusual rouge.”
“……yes?”
“Why. What.”
Sometimes… … Mao’s simplicity and indifference destroy common sense.
“That’s that. I don’t know much about Rouge. Is her name Chuisunran?”
“This is Hongran.”
“Where is home?”
“Home?”
She blinked in surprise at Mao’s question.
“Why? Surely there isn’t any?”
She smiles bitterly.
It used to be. But it’s not anymore.
A body that cannot go even if it wants to.
Jang-seo always said that he would definitely let her go back, but she had no intention of doing so.
‘Even if I go, they won’t accept me.’
At first, you may truly release your sorrow by feeling the pain of longing.
but.
‘In the Jeongpa clan. And in the Moyong clan that values honor. If the missing youngest daughter had come back after learning magic… … . Then would you accept her?’
No, not at all.
They would definitely think of it as a disgrace to the family, and it was obvious that they would cut off the tendons in his limbs after destroying his danjeon.
And Hongran never wanted that to happen again.
It wasn’t that I was afraid of pain, but I didn’t want to remember the sadness of being abandoned by them.
“But what on earth are you two doing these days?”
When I look at Mao, he asks me a question as if he is no longer interested in what I asked him earlier.
Hongran answered with a comfortable smile.
“Well, I also don’t know where Assistant Jang is going… … .”
“What are you talking about? Who do you think I am? Do you think I don’t know that you two are always together? The seal of the white robe I received from my father. I didn’t intend to use it. That’s why I kept it attached to my room.”
“Did you know… …?”
Hongran was so surprised that she covered her mouth.
“I could hear it all even if I walked just a hundred steps from here.”
It was too noisy. Hongran lowered her head with an embarrassed expression.
“I’m sorry, Your Majesty.”
“What are you sorry about? I won’t know even if you tell me. I think you two would know better. So. Are things going well?”
Hongran was inwardly greatly impressed.
‘You must be relying heavily on your master. Rather, you have the Seven Princes watching out for their assistants. The power dynamics have changed. In just a few months… … .’
“We are looking for suitable candidates.”
“Oh, really? I heard that Samso Palace is openly recruiting.”
“That’s because the Grand Duke stopped it… … .”
“Oh, really?”
“Yes, but I’ll find it somehow.”
“That’s what it should be… … .”
Hmm. Mao looked serious and lost in thought.
There is also this kind of appearance.
From Hongran’s perspective, it was somewhat surprising. She knew that he was changing, but she had seen the mangnani’s appearance longer than anyone else.
“Are you worried?”
“What are you worried about? Just. I don’t know for sure, but anyway, it’s an important opportunity. Raising the bar. Jang Seo and Roo Ju are working hard and stepping up. As for me… … I’m just here chewing on some fruit.”
Mao smiles awkwardly.
“In that sense. I should quickly become friends with this guy. Then Jang Il-seo will probably be surprised, right? Hahahaha!”
Mao jumps up and swings his spear dragon sword around.
‘The master must see this.’
And Chu Hongran looked at him with a bashful smile as if she was proud of him.
It was a time when two people were spending cozy time waiting for one another.
Boom, boom!
“hmm?”
Suddenly, outside, the earth began to shake with a loud roar.
“Where is Jang?”
At that moment, Mao turned around in joy and was about to run away.
Kwaaaaang-!
A loud explosion erupted from the entrance, and a large boulder flew menacingly toward Mao.
“What, what is it!”
Mao was caught off guard by the sudden situation and lost his mind.
“Your Majesty-!”
Just then, Hongran flew in like a ray of light and blocked his path.
Kwaaang!
Soon, a huge cloud of dust and a loud noise covers the entire area.
“Lou, Luju?!”
And Mao, who barely escaped the threat, looked at the woman standing in front of him and was startled.
Long red fingernails and fluttering pure white hair.
And the bloodshot eyes turned bloodshot.
She was no ordinary rouge.
‘It was a witch hag!’
It’s just a side effect of magic.
“Be careful… … please.”
Mao finally came to his senses after hearing Honglan’s difficult words.
The flying boulder was dealt with by Rouge’s swing, but this was only the beginning.
Kwung! Boom!
Once again the earth shook with a loud noise, and the shadow of a huge man appeared through the rising dust.
A rude intruder who breaks down a door that is still under construction and comes in.
“… … Wow, Wang Woo?!”
His name is Wang Woo.
The assistant of the Princess of Wukong who leads the way to the Giant.
And the girl who comes in with a big smile and quick steps from behind the settled dust is… … .
“This is Chilsogung.”
It was the laughing magic wheel, the female princess of the Five Kingdoms, Maeng Won-won.
She came to Chilsogung.
“Mao, long time no see.”
The Seven Princes’ Assistant, Jang Seo.
To meet him right away.
“Why on earth are you here… … .”
“You. I should call you big sister.”
“What kind of older sister is that to someone like you?”
“If you don’t like it, you can step down from your position as the Seven Princes.”
Maeng Won-won smiled brightly and looked around Chilso Palace. Then he looked at the white-haired witch, Chui Hong-ran, standing in front of him and asked.
“Oh my, is that Jang Seo? It’s a woman, not a man?”
That’s not true. But whatever the truth is, it doesn’t really matter anymore.
“But. Your eyes… … why are they open like that?”
Because Maeng Won-won was very upset by the vicious murderous intent that Chu Hong-ran was giving off.
It wasn’t intended.
The Baekbaekhyeol magic technique that Hongran had mastered was originally like that.
Once you open it, you can’t go back to the way it was before a certain amount of time has passed, and your mind will be filled with murderous intent.
It’s the same now.
“Wang Woo.”
The problem is that Maeng Won-won is not a great person who would just sit by and let this kind of rudeness pass.
At her call, the giant Wang Woo stepped forward with a heavy thud.
“Hey, hey! What is it? What are you trying to do now!”
Mao, startled, steps back and shouts. But it’s already too late.
Wheaaaaaaaaa!
Without a moment’s hesitation, Wang Woo launched his huge fist at Hong Lan.
It’s incredibly fast, despite its appearance!
‘Even if Rouge is a witch, she can’t avoid this!’
The moment Mao was about to run out in desperation.
Crunch!
“hmm!”
An unexpected result unfolded.
A white-haired witch was climbing onto Wang Woo’s outstretched wrist like a cat, and blood was dripping down his arm.
Not only did he avoid the blow, he also cut it three times with his long, red nails.
“You, are you pretty good?”
At this, Meng Yuanyuan’s mouth went up wide. However, Mao knew. It wasn’t because he was happy, but because it was a signal that he would definitely kill the opponent.
‘I have to stop it. If that crazy bitch ever goes crazy… … .’
To those who don’t know her well, Meng Yuanyuan may seem innocent and naive. But no way. In Mao’s eyes, she was the most evil woman who suited the devil.
A devil who tears people’s livers and gallbladders apart without a care in the world with clear eyes!
“What are you guys doing! Stop it now… … !”
The moment Mao steps in to mediate.
Whoosh! A round wheel with a saw blade attached to it spun furiously and shot past him next to his neck. Then it spun around and landed back in its master’s hand.
Remnant moon wheel.
This is the divine substance that Maeng Won-won received from the cult leader!
“Maoya. If you move… … your head will fall off next time?”
Parrr. I, I, I’m a crazy bitch!
“Are you out of your mind?!”
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill him. I’ll just cut off his arms and legs.”
That’s it! Mao’s teeth were chattering.
And in the meantime, the fierce battle between Wang Woo and Qu Honglan began again.
“Kuaaaah!”
Wang Woo let out a roar and swung his fists in earnest. He was much faster and stronger than before.
Boom! Kwaang! Boom bang bang!
Even though it was just a matter of striking the ground, it felt like those long, large arms were swinging at me like pillars.
Of course, she wasn’t the only one who suffered.
Crunch!
“Kuaaaah!”
As if he had really become a devil, he confronted Wang Woo without taking a single step, scattering afterimages.
No, at this level, she’s definitely one step ahead.
So it was natural that Meng Yuanyuan and Mao were surprised when they saw this.
‘What’s that guy? What is he? I never heard of a kid like that!’
‘The witch hag is… … strong!’
This was a completely different case from when he had to deal with the 3rd ranked Saekwol in the slaughterhouse hierarchy.
That’s a given.
The position of assistant is a third-grade position, higher than that of the grand lord.
In other words, there is no one who is not a monster.
To put it more simply, the 100th rank in the official ranking of the Demonic Cult, Ilbaekmaseong (一百魔星), is the basic!
“Kuaaaaaaah!”
Wang Woo, who had been pushed back to the limit, finally let out a roar of pain.
There are already hundreds of red lines engraved all over his body.
“Rouge, you’re amazing!”
At this, Mao clenched his fist and sensed victory.
One, that’s just his own opinion.
“Haha, do you really think Wang Woo will lose?”
“What are you talking about? Anyone can see that I’m losing.”
“Look carefully.”
Maeng Won-won declared with a confident nasal voice.
Mao frowned and looked ahead.
‘What the… … The witch hag is panting.’
That’s right.
It was clearly Hong Ran who had been continuously attacking, but it was she, not Wang Woo, who was exhausted.
