Chapter 281

Episode 280:

Honam martial arts competition hosted by Geumwangbu.

Ronin, who wanted to make a name for himself, and martial people, who wanted to make a name for themselves, were gathered together and moving toward business.

Since there were only about 15 days left until the competition, so many people were staying in the business that the place was crowded.

“It’s amazing...”

Looking at it, Namgung Sohye stuck out her tongue.

It is not uncommon to see martial arts people gathered together, but this time the scale is different.

Since it was hosted by the King’s Department and the prize money was considerable, more people showed up.

There was literally no room for business.

“It’s natural since many things happened at the same time.”

A situation where many martial people gathered in Akyang to capture Mo Yonghyeokmun.

In the end, it was a waste of money, but since the people quickly moved to the business, it was natural that there were many people.

Even if you look here, there are people, and if you look there, there are people.

Even the police officers were on guard in all directions in order to control the countless number of Murim people gathered, so I wondered if this would be suitable for the term ‘people in the mountains and people in the sea’.

“But there are more than I thought.”

“Why are we in a place like that?”

Namgung Sohye looked around with a dissatisfied gaze and frowned.

I came to the business in a situation where I needed to smoke a little more. Of course, taking a day off doesn’t mean anything will happen, but seeing so many people there made me worry whether I could really win.

Moreover, Dan Woo-hyeon is confident that Namgoong So-hye will win.

I’m already getting goosebumps at what sound I’ll hear if I pour cold water on it.

“It’s not bad to be crowded.”

Dan Woo-hyeon smiled as he heard the street stalls and the sound of firecrackers everywhere.

There was a time when many martial arts people gathered near Agyang, but the atmosphere was not as friendly as today.

I don’t feel alive and there is no tingling sensation at all.

The people here seemed to be completely enjoying the festival atmosphere.

“Why on earth are we here?!”

However, Namgung So-hye was so dissatisfied that she raised her voice and scolded Dan Woo-hyeon.

At that moment, people’s attention was focused.

Even though she wasn’t, there were many people who stared at her because of her appearance, but when she raised her jade-like voice, all eyes naturally fell on her.

Some of them recognized Namgung Sohye.

“Who is that person? Namgung Sohye...!”

“Really. So does that mean the Namgung family will also participate in this competition?” There was a commotion everywhere.

Even those who did not recognize Namgung Sohye at first agreed and gave wary looks when her name was mentioned. If she participated in the competition, it was obvious that she would be the favorite to win.

With so many people’s attention focused on her at once, Namgung Sohye lowered her head and held the hem of her skirt as if she were embarrassed.

“never mind. “I came here to take a leisurely look around.”

“so why...?”

Namgung So-hye, who made the sound of ants crawling, muttered.

His face was full of dissatisfaction.

“A lot of people usually flock to places like this.”

“yes?”

Namgung Sohye frowned at the unfamiliar words.

Meanwhile, Dan Woo-hyeon took something out of his arms. I looked around at a few books and then looked at one place.

Dan Woo-hyeon, who had been watching for a while to see what was so strange, nodded and put the paper in his hand into his arms.

“This way.”

Soon, he led Namgung Sohye and headed towards a place.

Namgung So-hye, who was being dragged away, could not help but feel embarrassed, but her face blushed unconsciously at the warmth she felt from the hand she was holding.

It seemed like this whole situation wasn’t so unpleasant.

Soon, Dan Woo-hyeon stopped.

Then I looked to one side.

“Do you see over there?”

“Are you talking about the guy with the bushy beard?”

“Okay, I guess I found out.”

Dan Woohyun smiled with a satisfied expression.

I was filled with a sense of pride, as if I really enjoyed the growth of the students I was teaching.

But on the other hand, Namgung Sohye felt anxious.

It was quite amusing to see her feeling so wronged.

“But I’m not sure what it meant.” She wiped away the cold sweat and glanced at Dan Woo-hyeon.

His actions have some meaning.

He wouldn’t have done

something like this just to make money .

Killing two birds with one stone (—石三鳥)

Because it was Danwoohyeon that was moving and aiming for something.

“It didn’t have any particular meaning...?”

“Eh?!”

Namgung So-hye was startled and looked at Dan Woo-hyeon.

So does this really mean that they did it for the bounty?

I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t even say the right words.

“If you really want to give it meaning... of course. “I thought that practical training was better than just concentrating on training.”

“Ugh... I’m not sure.”

Dan Woohyun chuckled.

Each criminal has different characteristics.

Some were good at running or hiding, and some were good at shooting or swinging swords.

There were also those who often dug traps.

This work focused on gaining diverse experiences while dealing with such people.

“As you can see, many people will participate in this competition. “There are people who are not just good at wielding a sword, but there are also people who use their brains.”

“Oh, I think I know roughly, so don’t tell me.”

Namgung Sohye waved her hand and frowned.

I know it’s not a grand reason, but it’s definitely gained experience. Because I had to use my brain to catch them and figure them out.

It’s not a bad experience, but...

‘Why do I feel cheated?’ Namgung Sohye bit her lip. Zhuge Yan’s words came to mind.

They use their talents and Woohyun takes care of the money.

I thought that the current situation was a perfect fit for that.

“Oh my, who is this? “Are you Namgoong Sohye?”

Namgung So-hye, who was walking down the street like that, frowned and turned her gaze back without realizing it when she heard a familiar voice.

There, the people I saw last time are gathered together.

There were some aspects that I was not familiar with, but even with a quick look, I could tell that they were late-stage indexes.

He stopped walking and looked at them with a bright smile.

“See you again?”

For a moment, it felt like the surroundings became brighter.

Hwang Bo-young frowned.

The place where I was hit last time seemed to tingle the moment I saw Namgung So-hye’s face.

However, I fought back without showing any signs of anger as much as possible.

“That’s true. I never thought I would see it in a place like this... I thought it would be stuck in a corner of the village of Agyang...”

“Me too. ” “I thought you wouldn’t talk to me if you got hit like that, but you’re so brave.”

A spark flew between Hwang Bo-young and Namgoong So-hye.

As a strange current of air flowed that seemed as if they would collide at any moment, the later indexes, who had relatively low levels of inaction, broke into a cold sweat and retreated without realizing it.

“Does coming to a place like this mean you’ll participate too?”

“Participate... you too?”

Namgung So-hye understood Hwang Bo-young’s words immediately.

No doubt, most of the late exponents present here seemed to be participating in the martial arts competition.

Namgung So-hye clenched her fists with a grin on her lips without realizing it.

“I didn’t mean to do that, but if you guys go out, I think you should think positively...?”

“joy!”

He spoke slightly sarcastically and turned his back.

There was no point in mixing words any more.

I didn’t want to waste time because it would stick to me so persistently.

Several men let out a sigh of regret as they watched Namgung So-hye walking away, but the sharp gazes of Hwang Bo-young and Jin Yeon-hwa made me hold my breath without realizing it.

However, Tang Mun-hye was not watching Namgung So-hye, but Dan Woo-hyeon next to her.

With an expression that makes it impossible to tell what he is thinking.
