Episode 87
“Hmph....”
That afternoon.
Dansomi sat down on the veranda and cried.
You’re throwing up all the porridge you worked so hard to make.
The person who ate it even fainted.
Since my eyes were turned enough to reveal the whites of my eyes, people looked at me as if the food had been poisoned.
Young Dansomi felt like her heart was being torn apart.
“But Somi, it’s okay....”
Yes, it’s okay.
It really doesn’t matter.
Then why did you throw up?
Because it wasn’t that tasty.
Do you have to stoop to this level to use it?
If you can’t make food, you can help with something else.
Taking care of a patient is something that can be easily done.
Dansomi stood up without giving in.
At that moment, I could see people trembling here and there.
On one side, Jang Sam-tae turned his head, Kwon Moo-jin hurriedly ran to the dance floor, and Dan Woo-hyeon was leisurely drinking and looking at the sky.
Then what about Namgungcheon?
I can’t see where it went.
Dansomi slowly stood up, patted the dust off her clothes, and headed toward the annex again. I opened the large door, went inside, and headed to the living quarters where Apostle Crane was.
‘It’s spacious!’
I’ve felt this for a long time, but this manor is really spacious.
Adults may not know this, but it was wide enough to be difficult for Dansomi.
Even so, he is shorter and dwarfed than other children. No matter where I went, I didn’t look like I was eight years old, and most people saw me as being five years old.
So this manor was too large for this little child to live in.
Still, I walked briskly.
Before we knew it, we had arrived in front of the Sadohak room.
There was still no sound inside. You can only eat one food and pass out? I seem to have aged in a strange way.
Dansomi carefully opened the door.
With a ‘squeak’ sound, the interior scenery was slightly revealed.
I saw Sadohak lying neatly on the bed. It seemed like he was breathing, but he still showed no signs of waking up.
‘good!’
Dansomi carefully went inside. Because in order to take care of a patient, you have to be next to the patient. Moreover, since I had experience taking care of both Kwon Moo-jin and Namgung-cheon, I felt like I could do it with ease.
I crept closer like a cat, pulled a chair, placed it in front of the bed, and sat down. As I was looking at this person breathing quietly, I felt somewhat scared.
‘He has a lot of beard.’
Yes, because of the beard.
The bushy beard covering his face was quite matted, as if it had not been trimmed. It would look pretty straight without that, but I wondered why it wasn’t shaved.
Of course, Namgoongcheon also has a beard.
However, because it was well-groomed and did not grow out like a bandit, Namgung Cheon’s beard gave off the appearance of a immortal.
“Uhm-.”
Dansomi swallowed a small moan and looked around.
Is there anything I can do to trim this beard? I think if you clean it up, it will wake up and be quite grateful.
With that thought in mind, I looked around.
At that moment, something caught my eye.
It was a small dagger.
I had never seen anything like this at home, so I thought it might belong to this middle-aged man. Dansomi stretched out her hand and held it.
It was my first time holding a real sword, so the feel of it was very unfamiliar.
Although it was small, I felt like I could feel its weight.
He carefully pulled it out and started shaving his beard.
“ah...?”
But the weather was strangely sunny.
It was nothing more than taking it, but rather than trimming it, the beard was cut off in chunks. Eventually, the ratio between left and right became inconsistent. Dan So-mi, who was in a cold sweat, cut off the left side this time.
I felt like I had to make it at least a little similar.
What on earth happened while I was lying down to make my beard disappear?
Could it be that the porridge the boy gave him contained an unknown poison, and that’s why his beard was cut off in chunks?
“Now... are you going to get cut off?”
Sadohak, who had been thinking that far, looked at the mirror again. When I looked at the side of the missing beard, it looked as if it had been cut with something sharp.
He frowned and looked away. A dagger was visible there.
When I held it in my hand and pulled out the blade, there were only a few hairs left, but there were definitely hairs that were presumed to be whiskers.
If so, it means that someone eventually cut off his beard.
Pap deuk-!
“Which one! “How dare you touch my body!”
Namgungcheon turned his head to look at it.
There was one person who could roughly guess.
He was a person who came out of the annex just before going to the street with Dan Woo-hyeon, and since he was moving in a hurry, it looked like he might have hit hard even if something happened.
I never thought it would be the correct answer.
“Take it easy. “Otherwise, it was an unattractive beard, so maybe I should just shave it all off now?”
“Is this guy kidding me? “How much effort have I put into growing this beard, and why are you saying such nonsense?”
“Hehe, well, it’s just a beard, so why are you so angry?”
“Then let’s cut off your beard right now.”
My short temper hasn’t changed. Sadohak, who was furious, quickly grabbed his sword and swung it sharply. A sharp sword that seemed as if it would cut Nam Gung-cheon’s beard in half was extended.
But Namgung-cheon said ‘Kang!’ It was blocked with a sound.
Before I knew it, Namgung-cheon was also holding a sword and he hesitated to step back while blocking the flying sword. The difference in strength is because my strength has not yet fully returned.
“How can you stop it?”
“Hehe- look. “What are you going to do with a helpless old man?”
“I’m trying to shave off your beard!” Nangong Cheon took a step back and laughed awkwardly.
But that guy is serious now.
‘This is so... I’m in trouble.’
Dan Woo-hyeon’s absence was a very unfortunate situation.
Now all I can do is do my best to run away.
“Dansomi was speechless as she stared straight ahead. No, I had no idea what to say first.
The moment I arrived at the manor, I couldn’t believe the sight I saw before my eyes.
“Why did it become like that?”
The manor was devastated as if it had been hit by a cannonball. It was broken and damaged here and there, and the fence was also broken down.
It was hard to believe that it was accomplished by human power, but even now, as I look at the situation unfolding before my eyes, there is no doubt that this was human power.
The loud, earth-shattering sound continued and showed no signs of stopping.
Inside the manor, Jang Sam-tae and Kwon Moo-jin could be seen in desperate condition running away, and the outbuilding on one side had already collapsed, leaving only the remains.
Even the angle I saw didn’t make sense. I was wondering how if I hit it, it would break like that.
“You bastard! “You can’t come here!”
“Mmm... make it stop! “It wasn’t Nobu’s doing!”
The commotion still hasn’t gone away.
Sadohak’s ability to pursue and ruthlessly use his sword energy could be said to be amazing, but Namgungcheon, who had not yet fully recovered from his inner strength, was managing to escape the situation.
Since you are a strong opponent who has been fighting against you for a long time, does this mean you have an idea of your opponent’s skill level?
Of course, that wasn’t a bad thing to say.
While Dan So-mi was looking at it with a blank expression, Dan Woo-hyeon, sighing slightly, hurriedly entered the manor.
I climbed over the broken wall, went inside, and stared at Sadohak’s moving face.
That moment.
Creepy-!
It was as if everything in the manor had sunk. Not only the wind, but even the air.
Even the two people who were running and chasing noticed this and stopped all their actions.
All eyes turned towards Dan Woo-hyeon.
“Now... Lord Jang-! Hehehe... please... please save me.”
Jang Sam-tae ran fearlessly and clung to Dan Woo-hyeon. This was because the situation taking place in this manor was unusual.
I could have gotten caught up and almost lost my life.
“What is this?”
Dan Woo-hyeon’s voice spread earnestly with Jang Sam-tae beside him, crying and clinging to him.
It penetrated everyone’s ears, like the words of an evil spirit that devours even people’s hearts.
