Challenge!

When it became night time, Taesan went to the brothel again.

Gyeongwan, who appeared to be more relaxed during the day, followed him closely.

Of course, nobody knew if Gyeongwan’s face looked relaxed or not. We just believe so because Soso said it.

Somehow, Gyeongwan’s personality appeared to be stronger.

Now, he looked like a proper guard.

“Are you heading to the brothel again today?”

As Gyeongwan asked the question, Taesan nodded.

“Sure. I think I can challenge now…”

The word challenge made Gyeongwan’s eyes wander.

The two people arrived at the brothel.

Taesan went inside.

A lady found him and screamed excitedly.

“The prince is here!”

The ladies inside came out.

Also, there were some ladies who were serving other customers.

Ladies lined hallways. They were consistently expressing their excitement to Taesan by looking at him.

They were talking with their eyes: Please choose me today.

It was a phenomenon that Taesan made after 10 days.

Taesan thought it was a good phenomenon and looked at ladies.

But the lady he was looking for wasn’t there.

“Not here.”

Hwaryeong, who was serving him, commented, “Is there any lady you are looking for?”

Hwaryeong asked with a desperate look while wanting him to choose her again.

Taesan nodded without hesitating.

Hwaryeong laughed, “Most of the ladies in this brothel are here. If they are not here, they do not meet your standards…..”

Taesan laughed.

“Who dares to make a standard for me?”

“Ah……!”

At that moment, Hwaryeong made a noise due to the charisma that she couldn’t adjust to.

So far, she looked at Taesan lustfully at night time but what just happened shook her.

Taesan was good-looking, and it was hard to peel one’s eyes away.

However, he was pretty, thus making him look less manly. Still, it didn’t mean he was feminine.

He was a man with a mysterious beauty.

Still, Taesan’s manliness captured Hwaryeong’s eyes just now.

“Go and bring the rest.”

Hwaryeong unconsciously nodded and shot a look at the other ladies.

The ladies felt the same as Hwaryeong and scattered around to find the ladies who were not here.

So three additional ladies showed up.

Taesan cracked a smile.

‘Found her.”

It was a lady he’d seen on the first day.

The reason he didn’t choose her from the beginning was because he was accumulating his abilities.

He went to a girl who was standing on the left.

“What is your name?”

“Danyoung.”

Taesan gave a satisfied smile as he looked at the lady named Danyoung.

The ladies who saw such a face had the same emotions.

It was strange.

Nobody thought Danyoung was pretty.

It wasn’t an issue of being pretty or not pretty. She had a dark facial expression, so no one ever wanted to come close to her.

The problem was that even that facial expression was a result of her trying to look bright.

‘The prince has a unique preference.’

That was the thought the ladies had constantly inside their heads.

“I think I will only need you today.”

It would be too much to even handle one.

Taesan viewed Danyoung as a lady who was full of darkness.

Darkness with an unclean spirit was in her body as if she experienced hardship from a young age.

Also, since the body follows the spirit, the person’s aura and appearance also were dark.

Perhaps, if he touched this girl’s spirit on the first day, it would’ve been risky even if Taesan had reached a high achievement in the Magical Spell in increasing Spirit.

First of all, he wasn’t feeling well.

Now, it was worth the try.

He was able to connect major heartbeats during the last ten days.

Now, it was time to fix the real major heartbeat.

By any means, it was an important challenge.

‘This one has more than 10 people combined.’

Taesan thought like that and gradually went up.

He went in by going through the power of the soundproof wall which subtly surrounded the room.

At that moment, he felt that something was off.

‘Huh, these guys.’

Even after losing his martial ability as Cheonma and being less sensible, he was still a Cheonma.

It wasn’t easy to secretly deceive Cheonma’s sensibility.

In order to do so, the person should be at least 100 in rank in the martial world for their talent.

Anyway, Taesan detected a sound that showed that someone was hiding without breathing.

The person’s hiding ability was quite good, but their martial ability was a bit lacking. Of course, the sense wasn’t perfect, so there was probably some margin of error.

The problem was that although his skill wasn’t too good, it was stronger than Taesan’s.

Even if Taesan used all of his energy, if the hidden sound stabbed him with a knife, everything would be over.

He thought about leaving the room with Danyoung, but he decided to postpone it as he thought it wouldn’t work.

Still, he didn’t plan on showing what happened in the room.

Taesan sat down.

Danyoung gently sat next to Taesan and poured the alcohol.

“I don’t need to drink. I don’t feel well, so if I drink it, I will faint. You can drink as much as you want.”

‘I’m fine.”

Danyoung also had a dark voice.

She seemed like she had submerged into darkness.

Perhaps, there were people who were attracted to Danyoung. Also, there was a high possibility that such people weren’t ordinary.

‘If you experience such a thing, you will become darker.’

Taesan told Danyoung, ‘Go out and tell my guard to come here.’

‘Yes, will do.’

Danyoung stood up quietly and went outside. After a while, Danyoung and Gyeongwan came together.

“Did you call me?”

Taesan nodded and put out a hand.
