Chapter 101 (1/2)
Jeok Gyeol-myung headed to the golden house whilst harboring a happy heart. Today was the day he promised with Cheon Chushinui.
Today, he decided to meet the quarrel of Byeok Tae-san called Chae-wol. And then, he would take that person as his disciple.
Jeok Gyeol-myung didn’t even think that Chae-wol would turn down her own offer. No matter how much he had received favor from Byeok Tae-san, it was the same no matter how Chae-wol tried to keep her loyalty.
It was common sense that if she wanted to repay Byeok Tae-san for her favor, it was far better for her to become Heukryeon’s disciple, who was a powerful person. It would take some time, but one would become much stronger and gain power.
In addition to this, depending on how Chae-wol behaved, she could have wielded greater power. Whether thinking about the present or the future, it was in the interest of everyone to accept her own proposal.
And so, Chae-wol was not a worry. The thing that Jeok Gyeol-myung was most worried about was Byeok Tae-san. It was difficult if Tae-san told Chae-wol separately in order to prevent her from leaving. She didn’t know for sure as she hadn’t figured out her inclinations yet, but looking at her back-and-forth mood, it was probably going to be very difficult if Byeok Tae-san were to interfere in that way.
‘I should have blocked it in advance…’
Jeok-gyeol frowned at her. He should have dealt with this the last time he met Byeok Tae-san.
However, the atmosphere of the day made it impossible. Jeok Gyeol-myung still wondered why they did that on that day. He still thought that there was a hidden master behind this situation, so he had been snooping around, but he hadn’t really come up with anything.
All he could find out was that Byeok Tae-san had some connections with the Nangin market and that he was acquainted with some of the infinite black swordsmen. In addition, that was no surprise at all. When it came to Confucius, who had some money, it was common to draw a line to a group of nerds and black swords and used money to play them around.
As she thought about this and that, she arrived at the gold closet, and she was able to meet the governor of the gold closet, who had come out ahead of time.
“It is an honor to meet you. I am Gamujin.” The general greeted politely and guided the name of Jeokgyeol inside.
“I heard that you are not seeing our Confucius today.”
At the commander’s words, Jeok Gyeol-myung nodded. “It happened. Today, I’m going to meet only one quarrel between God and Confucius, and I plan on going back right away. I just happened to be busy….”
“Oh, you are. He is also a master of black lily. Here it is.” Jeok Gyeol-myung followed the commander-in-chief with a shaky expression on his face.
Actually, he also wanted to meet Byeok Tae-san today. To be honest, wouldn’t it be much easier to take Chae-wol by meeting Byeok Tae-san and building a discussion board?
However, the meeting was canceled because Byeok Tae-san said no because he was busy. It was really annoying, but strangely, he didn’t feel bad about it.
This was also a bit strange, but when he heard that he could not meet Byeok Tae-san, he was honestly a little more comfortable.
‘Am I uncomfortable with Byeok Tae-san? Why?’
He couldn’t help but think of this. Soon, he had arrived at the waiting room.
“You can go inside. He is waiting.”
At this, Jeok Gyeol-myung simply apologized and went into the waiting room. She had a momentary eye-brightening experience.
‘You’re pretty, you’re really pretty.’
There were several people in the waiting room. Still, his gaze turned only to Chae-wol.
‘How come you just look prettier than then?’
That was how he felt. Chae-wol was far beautiful now than when he first saw her.
“Sit down over here for now.”
Hearing the words of Cheon Chushinui, he immediately came to his senses and sat down at the place he recommended. It was a seat facing Chae-wol, Cheon Chushinui, and Ilchimkai. Chae-wol was sitting in the middle, and Cheon Chushinui and Ilchimkai were placed on either side of her.
After she sat down like that, she was able to turn her gaze to the back of the three of them. Cheon Kyung-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon were standing behind them.
At this, Jeok Gyeol-myeong’s expression darkened.
‘Look at this?’
Jeok Gyeol-myung was obviously far below the skills of the likes of Cheon Kyung-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon. However, he was by no means easy going.
At this, Gyeol-myung tried to recall information about the people around him.
‘Chun Kyung-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon. Were they these outstanding people?’
He decided that if he ever returned, he would have to start researching more about Tae-san and his lackeys, even if he had to start from the very beginning. And the one-shot monster sitting in front of him was not at a satisfactory level.
In fact, a lot of information about the Japanese invasion had been collected from the Heukryeon dimension for a very long time. This was because information about outstanding lawmakers was really important from the point of view of the armed forces.
However, the Invasion of Invasion was also very different from what Heukryeon investigated.
‘Breathtaking.’
The process of doing so would never be smooth.
Suddenly, this place became a little burdensome. If something happened and a fight broke out, it could be a bit difficult.
“Come on, the seat is reserved. So now, say what you want to say.” Cheon Chushinui said this with a smile.
Jeok Gyeol-myung tried to stay calm as he looked at Chae-wol. And when he looked into Chae-wol’s eyes, he thought that things would not go well today.
‘Ha, I can’t force this.’
However, he had already checked the faces of those who came here today and folded them neatly.
“Did you come out and hear what I was going to say?”
“Yes. I heard about it.”
“You came out with a decision to say no.”
“You’re right.”
“Is it because of Confucius Pi?”
“Partly, yes.”
“Then I’ll have to walk the other half.”
It was like asking what the other half was. Instead of answering verbally, Chae-wol looked around slowly. Ilchimkai and Cheon Chushinui were sitting nearby, Cheon Kyung-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon behind, and other people who were not here but somewhere in the golden house.
At this, Jeok Gyeol-myeong smirked. “You don’t even let a needle go through.”
Jeok Gyeol-myung stared at Chae-wol with a firm expression on his face. “The future of you and the people around you is at stake. If you make such a sentimental decision, you will surely regret it later.”
At this, Chae-wol replied calmly, “It’s not just an emotional decision.”
