Episode 415: The Great Assassin is a Dog (1)
After returning from his mission, Yoo Seol was eating a snack in Hoeju’s office.
It was an office, but all I did was formally stay there for a short time a day, such as taking a nap or reading.
This was possible because the administration of Cheonyuhoe was delegated to the general.
“This is delicious.”
In his hand was an uneaten mooncake.
The table was also full of various snacks, including milk, and books were piled up on one side.
Yu Seol, who had gained wealth, was very satisfied with his current life. Because I could do anything I wanted.
I was able to engage in my favorite sparring with the renowned martial arts masters, and even if I went out to the market and played to my heart’s content, my funds never dried up.
Where is that? A variety of snacks were always prepared when entering the office.
Everything was really perfect. Except for one thing.
Yu Seol suddenly burst into tears while eating a snack.
“Hmph.”
Because I suddenly wanted to see my grandfather.
I was very curious about where and what I was doing now.
‘Grandpa, I’m sure you’re eating well, right? ‘They should at least give me more pocket money.’
I felt sorry because I was eating delicious food alone.
But that doesn’t mean you can starve.
I was sipping milk with a gloomy face.
Suddenly, the door to the office burst open and someone burst into the office as if being chased.
“Sashimi Lord!!”
Her face turned pale, and as soon as she came in, she closed the door from the inside.
bang-!
“What’s wrong, head of the family?”
She was Yeon Yeon-hee, Eun Hwa-rin’s right hand woman.
He was also a man of great resourcefulness, enough to alleviate much of the work of the Commander-in-Chief.
“I thought my heart was going to drop when I came in. Why on earth would you leave that horrible thing outside?...”
“You mean it’s horrible? “How cute is our Darong~”
Sangun brought from Taesan was standing in front of Yoo Seol’s office.
Like a dog guarding the house.
However, ever since he showed me the wooden board that Geomhu gave him, he has never shown any aggressive tendencies.
Although he was obedient and obedient like a gentle sheep, people who saw him as he walked around couldn’t help but feel chills in his stomach.
“How long are you going to keep me tied up in front of the door?”
Yu Seol shrugged his shoulders and joked.
“After the inspection, I want you to take care of it until my sister comes back. “There’s nothing we can do about it.”
“Then you can tie it up in the backyard. I know everything too. “They intentionally tied it up in front of the office so that the Commander-in-Chief couldn’t come.”
Yeon-hee Yeon knew exactly why.
There was no way Yoo Seol would be pleased with the general who came and bothered her whenever he got the chance.
Because she was extremely afraid of Darong, she tied him up in front of the door.
In fact, since then, the Governor-General has not visited Hoeju’s office even once.
Yoo Seol, who found out his true intentions, was shocked and changed the topic.
“But what brings the head of the family here?”
“The Commander-in-Chief has a matter to discuss, so he asks me to come.”
I guess I never dared to come here.
And if Yeon-hee Yeon came here in person, it must have been important.
Even if it was annoying, it didn’t seem like a situation where I would insist on not going.
“all right. “I’ll go right away.”
Yeon-hee Yeon-hee moved behind Yu-seol and gently grabbed him by the collar.
It was probably because the mountain army in front of the door was so scary.
Sigh-!
When the door opened and Yu Seol was revealed, the huge tiger that had been crouching and not moving jumped up.
“It’s your job to protect the emperor, right? Then, we must include the Baeksang Protector in case the assassins come.”
“Are you Lord Wen of the Black Cat Sect? “If it’s him, then you can rest assured.”
Eunhwarin had also heard about his reputation. His experience and ability as a shooter are truly legendary.
However, Yu Seol’s feelings of uneasiness did not go away.
It is true that White Shark’s defense skills were excellent, but there were limits depending on the number and skills of the enemies.
“But if you have the ability to attack the imperial family, you will never be able to stop it alone. “It would be a good idea for Elder Gwangneung to go with us.”
Gwangneung Jinin, the highest elder of the Shaman faction.
He was an expert in Hyeon-gyeong who had mastered the Taegeuk Heart Sword along with Jang Sam-bong’s sacred item, the Heavenly Sword.
In terms of swordsmanship alone, he was the best in the martial arts world.
Because he was such a great person, he was appointed as an elder of Cheonyuhoe along with Jeonghye, head of Shaolin Temple.
“That makes sense. “Anything else?”
“Combat power can be doubled when allies who work well together work together. “How about asking the elder to choose for himself?”
You will know best who has the best hands and feet.
Eunhwarin also agreed with Yuseol’s opinion.
“That would be a good idea. “I will tell you to bring some of the heads of the clan with you.”
“yes. The remaining forces will stand by here and provide support where needed. “You never know where enemies might suddenly appear.”
At that moment, a look of puzzlement appeared on Eunhwarin’s face.
“I think the same thing. But something is a little strange.”
“What?”
“I mean, Lord Hoe. “I think you’ve changed a lot.”
Yoo Seol realized what she meant and said with a grin.
“Hi-Hi. I read a lot of books these days. “I’ve already memorized everything the Commander-in-Chief lent me.”
Recently, I have developed a keen interest in reading, so I often read it in my office.
Most of them were military methods books such as Sun Tzu’s Art of War, Wu Tzu’s Six Paths of War, and Three Strategies.
But what really surprised Eunhwarin was that she had memorized the entire contents of the book. And that was in just a few days.
This was possible because he was born with the constitution of a seonumji body that never forgets what he has seen.
“Oh my god.... If Lord Hoe goes to the civil service examination, the chief will be in trouble.”
“But I’m not interested in government office. “I don’t want to be someone’s subordinate.”
It was something I said as a joke even though I knew from the beginning that he wasn’t interested.
As the words came out, Eunhwarin answered with a faint smile.
“If you put your mind to it, you will rise to the highest rank, whether you are a civil servant or a military officer. “All the officials of the country will look up to you.”
“Yes, you are the emperor’s subordinate. “There is only one person in the world who can command me.”
Eun Hwa-rin also knew who that person was. Eugene San, the one and only family member who took care of me throughout my life. But he was not here, and now no one could control Hoiju.
“How could I not know? By the way, how will you take care of the Lord Hoe’s personal affairs? From now on, we will have to strengthen the guard...”
If they were targeting Yin Kai, the supreme figure of the martial arts world, in Cheonchuk, they would not send quite a few experts.
So now it was a situation where we had to prepare for anything.
However, Yoo Seol’s reaction was calm.
“I already brought you here some time ago. “My bodyguard.”
I can’t believe I’ve already found a bodyguard. Who on earth are you talking about?
After pondering for a moment, Eunhwarin asked if anything was possible.
“Are you sure you mean that hideous-looking monster?”
When she called Sangun a monster, Yuseol went wild and questioned him.
“What does that mean? “How cute and kind is our Darong!?”
Eunhwarin could not understand at all.
I was so scared just by looking at it that I couldn’t even dare to go to Hoeju’s office.
“What on earth are you talking about that’s cute?... “I have never seen such a vicious-looking beast before.”
I just couldn’t pass it up this time.
Yu Seol grabbed her wrist and pulled her gently.
“all right. From now on, I will prove how kind our Darong is. “He probably really likes the governor.”
“What!? What I just said is canceled!”
Her face turned pale and she hurriedly gathered her words, but her body was already heading towards Hoeju’s office.
