Chapter 36 (1/2)

The owner of the white petal brothel was calm and collected.

Taesan walked forward and sat in front of Mdm Rogue.

The doctor hurriedly followed Taesan’s lead and sat next to him.

“Don’t even think about coming up with an excuse along the lines that the brothel had nothing to do with this incident.”

Mdm Rogue shook her head in reply.

“Of course not. I too value my life.”

“Is that so? Then let me ask you a few questions.”

“Sure.”

“Why are you so confident?”

Mdm rogue laughed. It was laughter mixed with a hint of wickedness.

“You asked for my body. So I assumed that meant you wouldn’t kill me.”

“I may not kill you. But what if I can make you beg to be killed?”

Mdm Rogue’s smile did not disappear even after Taesan replied menacingly.

Either she had someone who she could rely on or she couldn’t read the situation. If it wasn’t that then she must enjoy pain.

“Fine, that’s not all that important. Next question.”

Mdm Rogue looked amused as she looked at Taesan. Her reaction showed that she was definitely not an ordinary person.

“I asked those guys who attacked us today but they wouldn’t give me an answer. Who’s backing you guys up.”

“Cheon Geum Ryeon.”

Mdm Rogue replied without a minute of hesitation.

Taesan shook his head to her reply.

“No, that I already know. What I want to know is who’s backing Cheon Geum Ryeon.”

Taesan’s eyes flashed.

“I feel like you might know?”

“I don’t know the exact name myself. But I do know the person who frequents Cheon Geum Ryeon.”

Taesan gestured by moving his chin and encouraging her to continue.

“It’s Bong Moo Ok.”

“Bong Moo Ok?”

It was the first time Taesan had heard such a name so he looked towards the doctor.

Assuming he would know since he has been around a lot.

As expected, at the mention of Bong Moo Ok the doctor asked using his title name.

“The dark moon sword?”

“That’s correct.”

Taesan asked.

“Is he famous?”

The doctor looked at Taesan in disbelief.

“Of course he is famous. He single-handedly killed the blood sworn evil prince.

Honestly, he didn’t know who the blood sworn pack were and who this blood sworn evil prince was.

“If it’s another blood sworn pack isn’t it just some kind of a bandit? I’m guessing the bloody evil prince is the head of the bandit. So he got famous for wiping out a pack of bandits?”

“What do you mean just a bandit. The blood group were the strongest of the 100 professionals of that time. And the blood group were not just any pack of bandits.”

“Is that so?”

Taesan was still not interested.

No matter what, a bandit was just a bandit. Adding on about the 100 professionals was probably his way of indirectly telling him that he was far from becoming one of the 100 professionals.

There was no way Cheonma could possibly be interested in someone like him. The same goes for the one that killed him.

But the doctor was not done with his explanation.

“But from what I know, the dark moon sword is already dead.”

Taesan finally showed interest in the word dead.

“Dead? Are you sure?”

“Well, I didn’t see it with my two eyes….but there were several people who witnessed his death.”

“They witnessed his death?”

Taesan turned back to look at Mdm Rogue.

“He’s dead?”

“No. I am certain that he is Bong Moo Ok the dark moon sword.”

“Do you swear upon your soul?”

“I swear.”

Taesan nodded. If she was that confident it was probably the right guy.

“Did the dead guy resurrect himself?”

Taesan asked and looked to the doctor.

“Well…maybe he made it look like he was dying. But the one that killed him was the bloody evil prince’s own brother, Manchu from the red lightning pack. “

“Then that red lightning Manchu guy must have been from his weirdly named pack.”

The doctor tilted his head questioningly.

“But…something is fishy. The red lightning pack are stronger than the blood sworn pack but their differences are not that much.”

“What if there’s another possibility?”

“Another possibility you say…..”

“A zombie.”

The doctor scoffed.

“No way, it’s not easy to make a zombie you know? And for it to move to and fro to Cheon Geum Ryeon it must be able to move not like one, only a real live zombie would be able to do that. Which is….”

The doctor came to a stop and did not finish the rest of his sentence.

What he was about to say didn’t make any sense.

“Things are becoming a hassle.”

Initially, he thought that things would be resolved once he settled the Jong clan and Cheon Geum Ryeon.

But those guys were merely pawns of the game.

Everything would be resolved once he finished off those moving the pawns, but he did not know who they were yet.

If things continued on like this, wiping out Cheon Geum Ryeon would not solve the problem.

Because then, the hidden players will not stand back and watch after their plans are ruined.

“No. From the looks of it, they seem very cautious…maybe they will hide away completely after this.”

Taesan mumbled to himself before he looked at Mdm Rogue.

“Well then, don’t you think it’s about time you repay your sins?”

No matter how hard she tried it was difficult to stay indifferent.

Mdm Rogue looked slightly nervous.

“From today you are a spy.”

“What?”

“From today onwards, gather all the information on the organization supporting Cheon Geum Ryeon to the best of your abilities and deliver it to me.”

Mdm Rogue was unable to reply.

Taesan was not bothered to hear a reply and continued speaking.

“I don’t need information I can gather outside. Those can be done by my subordinates. You bring the information from the inside.”

Taesan finished his sentence and stared at Mdm Rogue.

Mdm Rogue replied calmly.

“There is a limit to my information.”

She paused and collected her thoughts before continuing.

“I won’t be able to find out critical information. Since they never reveal themselves.”

Taesan smirked.

“What are you talking about? You’re hired by Cheon Geum Ryeon, right? You’re not on their side are you?”

“What do you mean….”

“You found out that the dark moon sword is the one behind Cheon Geum Ryeon on your own, right? Those at Cheon Geum Ryeon aren’t aware that you know this, do they?”

Mdm Rogue looked flabbergasted.

“I’m sure you’ve consistently gathered information on your own ever since you were hired by Cheon Geum Ryeon. Right?”

“I don’t understand why you are saying all this.”

Taesan nodded his head.

“You’re a good actor. As expected of a Haomoon.”

The doctor’s eyes became round at the mention of Haomoon.
