“So you’re saying that the eunuch’s spirit possessed you.”
“yes…….”
A minor incident that almost resulted in a neck-twisting during a long-awaited reunion was fortunately resolved after a brief Q&A.
I heard that it was a misunderstanding, and that after breaking up with him, the eunuch’s spirit that had been attached to Bukgungyeon’s body like a parasite had been teaching her, filling in the basics that she had been lacking, and further leading her beyond the peak of maturity to the peak of supremacy.
“I thought I was possessed by a demon again.”
It was something that he himself found very strange, so he could fully understand Cheonhwa’s reaction.
Her rise to fame was amazing, but it felt like she had an alien spirit energy, which made me wonder if she was possessed by a ghost or something.
“That eunuch’s spirit doesn’t look very good. Should I help him attain Buddhahood?”
“No. He is a bit of an odd person, but he helps me a lot. I am receiving a lot of help from him.”
However, it is not a good thing when someone else’s spirit is attached to your body.
The body may become weak due to the evil spirit’s energy, and in the case of a strong spirit, it may try to harm or take over the owner of the body it is attached to, depending on the situation.
Of course, those with strong mental power are less likely to be exposed to such dangers, but we cannot let our guard down.
Cheonhwa suggested that it would be easier to cut off such buds in the first place, but Bukgungyeon gratefully accepted the idea and declined.
She also recognizes that the eunuch’s spirit can be dangerous, but there is nothing that changes or is inconvenient right now, and she has much more to gain from it.
It was easy to reach the peak of a story that seemed like it would be a distant dream.
At least, I have already experienced first-hand that it is the best teacher when it comes to dealing with yin energy, so I would rather hold on to it even if there are minor side effects or risks.
“Hmm. Well, does that matter? If you change your mind, just tell me. It’s not like it’s a big deal to get rid of one of those evil spirits.”
Cheonhwa could guess the intention well enough, so he didn’t insist any longer.
He just glanced at the spirit hanging on her and left a warning message before turning his head away.
– A demon! This body is noble… …?
At that moment, the eunuch’s spirit, who was indignant at Cheonhwa for belittling him so pitifully, met Cheonhwa’s eyes.
He couldn’t hide his embarrassment at the reaction, as if he was seeing himself, as if he was hearing his own voice that only Bukgungyeon could hear.
– Can you hear me?
“No. I can’t hear you, so don’t talk to me. I have no intention of playing with ghosts. Hurray, hurray!”
When Cheonhwa denied the truth, doubt became certainty.
He didn’t want to get too involved with Cheonhwa, who made him like this and whom he didn’t like to see, but at the same time, he also wanted to tease her.
– That’s good. I’ll torment you a lot… … .
Deering-
However, it could only end as an attempt.
The moment he was about to utter a curse, Cheonhwa lightly played the wind chime.
My soul trembled with him.
If you do something wrong, you will be rejected.
I couldn’t just disappear without being able to solve my own problem or even see this child reach the level I had been longing for.
So he kept his mouth shut, and Cheonhwa looked at him again and smiled faintly.
As if to tell me to look at it, as if to tell me to go and try to trouble him again.
It was the moment when A and B became clear.
Also, it was a moment when I could no longer dare to harbor any wrong thoughts toward Cheonhwa or Bukgungyeon.
“It’s a bit quiet now.”
“Please don’t be too pushy. Although my tastes are peculiar, I don’t think my nature is completely wrong.”
“Okay. As long as you don’t bother me.”
Even though Bukgungyeon was the one who defended the eunuch, perhaps because he was his teacher, Cheonhwa could understand that much.
However, one thing caught my attention in her words.
“Wait, what do you mean by taste? That… …isn’t it because it’s a preservation of the original or something? Was it originally like that?”
“Yes. He was born a boy, but he wanted to become a woman. He also wanted to see the end of the Yin Han Qigong that can only be reached by a woman. So, he wanted to achieve it through me. I don’t know if it’s possible because there aren’t enough girls… … .”
I thought that the eunuch’s transformation into a woman was purely a side effect of the Kyuhwabojeon, which was feminization, but it seems that he had different tastes even before that.
I’m afraid to ask whether it’s because he’s a eunuch, or whether he became a eunuch because he was obsessed with his tastes.
That was why Cheonhwa flinched for a moment.
It was more of an instinctive struggle, regardless of the realm.
– Child, have more confidence. You have the most special constitution in the world and you have the best teacher in the world called this body, so you will definitely achieve it. I will make it so.
“What do you mean, the best in the world? You’re a demon.”
– Profit!!
“Anyway, do your best. And you, if you talk nonsense, you know that, right?”
– Huh! Just wait and see. I’ll easily defeat the likes of you!!
The eunuch, who knew or pretended not to know Cheonhwa’s reaction, promised that he would make Bukgungyeon the best female swordsman, no, even the best in the world, but was immediately rebuked by Cheonhwa.
He once again showed his confidence, trembling with fear at the warning that if he ever entertained other thoughts, he would be put into a state of annihilation.
‘I think it’ll be okay for now.’
Cheonhwa felt a little relieved at that sight.
At least for now, it didn’t seem like he had other thoughts.
Also, if he was by your side, you would be able to notice right away whatever he did.
“But Eun-gong. Why have you come to our family? Or… … have you come to fetch me?”
At that time, Bukgungyeon changed the subject, perhaps to lighten the mood between the two.
But it was a cautious voice, as if secretly expecting something.
“What, you say something? I have something to tell your father.”
“My father?”
At those words, Bukgungyeon’s cheeks slightly turned red.
Because it was rare for that to happen due to the delay in the ice age, Cheonhwa was wondering if something was wrong or if the eunuch was up to something, when a voice from outside the door was heard.
“Miss, dinner is ready.”
I came to pick them up.
It was to give them time to briefly resolve their misunderstandings and share a long-awaited reunion, but it was also to allow them to utilize their free time until a meal with the head of the household could be arranged, so the two got up and started moving right away.
The dining table that had arrived that way was filled with the elders of the family, including the head of the household, and Bukgungyeon’s older brothers.
Bukgungyeon is the only daughter of a noble family, but all her cousins, who occupy positions in government and martial arts circles, have gathered together.
The attack on the family was stopped by Bukgungyeon, who had just finished closing the palace, but everyone had rushed to the scene at the news that the family had been attacked, and that was why they were still staying.
They looked at Cheonhwa with complicated eyes.
The expressions contained within were diverse, including gratitude, caution, and observation.
Of course, that doesn’t mean that he was a timid person.
“May I ask why you have come to visit me so suddenly? If you had told me in advance, I would have treated you more warmly.”
It started with a simple chat.
The atmosphere became quite relaxed as the stories about trivial stories and raids, as well as the meeting with Bukgungyeon and the treatment, which I’m sure you’ve already heard, were told.
However, since we can’t keep filling up on such stories forever, when we were almost done eating, Bukgung Se-ga-ju brought up the main topic.
I wonder why Cheonhwa suddenly visited them.
In that case, there is no reason to go around and around and waste time.
It may be a bit overwhelming to have so many people, but maybe it would be better to get the answer in a place where everyone is present.
“I came here to ask you a favor.”
That’s why Cheonhwa continued to speak seriously.
He also took out the gift certificate he had received a long time ago and made it so they couldn’t refuse it.
I plan to make one request, staking all my debts on them.
“Please tell me.”
Then, Bukgung Se-ga-ju also pulled his body forward with an extremely serious expression.
It was a posture of listening, and a look of being prepared for something.
It was not only him, but also everyone gathered here, including Bukgungyeon, who shared the same attitude.
“Please give me the Asura statue.”
“Father. Am I okay…?”
“Okay. If it’s your honor, my daughter… … .”
Soon, Cheonhwa’s lips trembled, and Bukgungyeon and Bukgungseaga spoke as if they had been waiting for it.
“yes?”
“yes?”
“Huh? Eun-gong, what did you just say… … .”
However, before I could finish speaking, I felt something strange and made a blank expression.
Because what they expected and what Cheonhwa said were completely different.
The faces of the two people who realized the situation belatedly turned red with embarrassment.
There was a moment of awkward silence, but as expected from someone leading a large family, Bukgung Se-ga was the first to come to his senses and speak.
“How did you know about that thing?”
“I just happened to find out. I already have a few.”
However, like the previous ones, it was difficult to give a quick answer.
Because they had the item, but it wasn’t something they could dispose of as they wished.
So I first asked where the information came from, and then I checked to see if they really knew what it was.
Cheonhwa had no particular reason to hide it, so she answered properly, and Bukgung Sega thought about it for a long time.
In principle, it is impossible.
Although it was entrusted to them, it was agreed that the various martial arts figures would share it and keep it safe.
I’ve already heard that Surochae and Nokrim have already released it, but that is not something to be taken into consideration.
Because I never expected trust from thieves in the first place.
However, the reason we entrust it to them is because we trust in their power and greed.
The belief that I won’t give up what’s mine easily.
And their firmness that no power in the martial arts world can easily touch.
However, since they did not think it would last forever, it is neither to be blamed nor unexpected that they gave up the Asura statue so easily.
But he was different.
It is an item that is entrusted to only a select few in the political world, and since there is trust between them, it is not easy to decide to hand it over to one’s own hands, even if it is taken away.
“Okay, I’ll give it to you.”
But, circumstances were circumstances.
Because of that Asura statue, we were attacked by the Demonic Cult.
This time, thanks to Bukgungyeon’s efforts, they were able to repel them without much damage, but if they prepare better and attack while Bukgungyeon is away, there is no guarantee that they will be able to stop them then either.
It could have been a catastrophe that resulted in annihilation.
It may have been different in the past, but the current Bukgung family is in a state of great decline in many ways.
As a head of a household and not a member of the ruling party, I had to prevent something like that.
Even if his own faith and reputation fell to the ground, he had a duty to protect his family and his descendants.
In that sense, I hesitated to put that huge burden on my benefactor, Cheonhwa, but I consoled myself that it would be okay since it was what he wanted, and chose to turn away.
“But, it’s difficult now.”
“Why?”
“Because that item isn’t here right now.”
“Have you hidden it? Where is it? If you tell me, I will go and find it myself.”
But even if I wanted to give it, it’s impossible right now.
Even as he said that, Bukgung Se-ga’s expression was not very good.
He slowly looked at Cheonhwa and Bukgungyeon with a serious expression, then pursed his lips as if he had made up his mind and gave his answer.
“This is the North Sea Ice Palace.”
The Bukhae Ice Palace is one of the three external palaces and one of the main characters of the external bloodshed that occurred about twenty years ago.
There was a statue of Asura of Bukgung Sega there.
