Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 468
Only Noblemtl
468. Do you know who I am? (2)
Seolhwa had a puzzled expression on her face, and Cheonghwa had her eyes wide open in surprise.
Hanbin looked back and forth between Seolhwa and Cheonghwa, then turned his gaze to Sogun.
Hanbin seemed to know why Seolhwa and Cheonghwa had such expressions.
The appearance of the girl dressed as a woman was like that of a heavenly girl.
The round eyes, nose, mouth and facial features were not like those of a boy.
A truly perfect disguise!
Hanbin patted Seolhwa and Cheonghwa on the shoulders.
“Good work. Your disguise skills have really improved. Let’s take a closer look. To disguise yourself to this extent, you must have used at least a partial disguise… … .”
Hanbin’s voice trailed off slightly.
The garb that Hanbin spoke of was a disguise tool made by thinly processing animal skin and attaching it to the skin.
While a face mask covers the entire face, a cap is used to partially cover the face to give it a three-dimensional effect.
Hanbin looked at Sogun’s face intently.
And then he burst out in admiration.
“Your skills are truly perfect! No matter how much I think about it, I can’t see any trace of Gapi.”
“… … .”
But Seolhwa and Cheonghwa remained silent.
It was said that Sulwha would jump for joy when receiving such praise.
Well, it was natural for So-gun to be so upset.
Who would be happy if you made a man dress up as a woman?
Hanbin stroked Seolhwa and Cheonghwa as if he was feeling good.
For a moment, Hanbin narrowed his eyes.
No response even when I stroke his head?
Hanbin tilted his head and looked at Sogun again.
At this point, there was no need to worry about being caught at Yulim Seowon.
In addition, with this level of disguise, no one could know So-gun’s true identity.
It was as if Hanbin’s plan was working out perfectly.
Hanbin smiled brightly and grabbed Sogun’s cheek.
I caught him because he was cute, but I had to check the sturdiness of this disguise one last time.
Hanbin said with a big smile.
“Now you have the air of a girl. I’ll give you a perfect score for this.”
For a moment, So-gun’s eyebrows twitched.
The little boy frowned as if he couldn’t stand it anymore and opened his mouth.
“What are you doing now? Do you know who I am?”
The little lord could not hold back any longer and threw the magic energy contained in the demon spirit body into the lion’s back.
In an instant, So-gun’s eyes widened.
First of all, I was surprised by my own irrational behavior.
But what was more important was that the magic did not respond at all.
This was something he never imagined.
When the full moon rose, it felt like not a single bit of the magic energy I had collected was left.
What was even stranger was that even though he had lost his magic, his memories remained.
Not all of the memories, but the ones I found a few days ago were still there.
The little prince didn’t understand the current situation.
At that moment, Hanbin narrowed his eyes and asked.
“So, who are you?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize… … .”
The little prince turned his head slightly.
In times like this, retreat was the best option.
The little prince still did not know the identity of his opponent.
The two maids, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa, only called each other ‘Your Majesty’ and never mentioned each other’s names.
It was not something I could ask about.
If someone asks you, “Who are you?” just because you asked for nothing, you’ll only be in trouble.
It was when the little boy was confused.
Seol-hwa interjected in a low voice.
“Master, it’s not that we disguised ourselves well.”
“This is perfect, but you’re saying it’s not good? It’s not good to be too humble.”
“No, Sogun is originally a girl.”
“What? So… … .”
Hanbin doubted his ears.
Seeing Hanbin’s flustered appearance, Cheonghwa also spoke cautiously.
“Sister Seolhwa is right. Sogun was originally a girl. We were mistaken.”
“With that dirty look, covered in blood, and short hair… … Honestly, I couldn’t help but be mistaken. It seemed like a girl disguised as a boy.”
After finishing speaking, Seolhwa pointed to Sogun.
The little boy is avoiding eye contact like a criminal.
At that time, Hanbin said nonchalantly.
“That’s good.”
“yes?”
As Seolhwa opened her eyes wide, Hanbin waved his hand.
“I was going to take her away disguised as a girl anyway, but it would have been better if she had actually been a girl. They say heaven helps those who help themselves… … . There’s nothing wrong with old sayings.”
“Oh, Your Majesty, you didn’t help me with this yourself.”
“Let’s just say that’s okay and let’s go eat something delicious.”
Hanbin pointed outside.
For a moment, Seol-hwa’s eyes lit up.
“I know where they make the best sweets around here.”
“Yeah. I think it would be good to rest today.”
As Hanbin nodded, Cheonghwa came closer to him.
“There is a rice cake shop that I have been looking into, Your Majesty.”
“Okay, I understand. What about So-gun?”
Hanbin looked at Sogun.
But the little prince couldn’t say anything.
It’s not that I’m trying to hide it, but I just can’t think of what I like.
“… … .”
Hanbin said, looking at Sogun who was just standing there blankly.
“If you don’t know what you like, just try everything. Why worry so much?”
“Oh, that’s true too.”
The little prince answered reluctantly.
But So-gun’s eyes were full of doubt.
The group’s attitude was very strange after their identities were revealed.
Wouldn’t it be normal to ask in detail about someone’s story and origins?
But these people were worrying about what to eat without any concern.
The maids called Seolhwa and Cheonghwa were also strange.
Even after finding out that she was a girl, he didn’t seem surprised and silently dressed her up.
Of course, I came out and looked surprised, but before that, I hadn’t even shown any sign of being surprised.
No matter how you look at it, this was no ordinary group.
But now I thought I had no choice but to be buried here.
The little prince had no choice now.
Hanbin quietly looked at the little boy.
The magic of So-gun was suppressed by Han-bin.
This was similar to a method of acupuncture. In some ways, it was closer to poisoning with acid than acupuncture.
The technique Hanbin used was the ink-and-black technique, which corresponds to the golden technique of the Yongrin Sword Technique.
Geunmukjaheuk was able to plant Hanbin’s thoughts in his head.
A way to ban just one person through that spell.
Geunmukjaheuk had previously used it on Ami Baekseon Jeongsogun. However, Hanbin later took back the Gugyeol from Ami Baekseon, so he was able to use the Geumjebeop again.
The secret that Hanbin had planted in Sogun was ‘heart.’
It was an attribute required when using the Sim Jinryongpahongeom.
Since it is a herb that best contains Yongrin’s energy, it enters Sogun and properly blocks the magic energy.
The little prince was banned from using magic without even knowing what was going on.
If you are going to take along a small army that holds the key to the Jeongma War, it would be right to prepare at least this much.
* * *
After a while.
Hanbin and his party stood at the bottom of the eight-story pavilion.
In the middle of it there was a large signboard.
Manhyanggak (Pavilion of Full Incense).
Hanbin asked while looking at the story.
“This is the place you were talking about?”
“Yes, that’s right. They say this place makes the most delicious sweets in Gunja-hyeon.”
As Seolhwa spoke confidently, Cheonghwa also joined in.
“That’s right. The rice cake shop I saw is also here.”
When Cheonghwa pointed to Manhyanggak, the little prince next to her tilted his head.
Hanbin smiled at that sight and continued speaking.
“I think both Seolhwa and Cheonghwa’s words are correct. Manhyanggak is a famous place in Gunjahyeon. Manhyang is a name given to it because it is said to have the fragrance of all over the central plains… … .”
Hanbin continued his explanation about Manhyanggak with a big smile.
Hanbin had always wanted to come here in his past life.
The restaurant I had only heard about through information was Manhyanggak.
Gunjahyeon was a place where Confucian scholars from all over the Central Plains flocked.
For that reason, Manhyanggak has recreated all the famous foods from all over Central Plains.
Its taste is just as good as that of the famous local restaurants, so it was bound to be famous.
Just like the candy that the story talks about.
All the rice cakes that Cheonghwa mentioned could be tasted at Manhyanggak.
The problem started from then.
Hanbin’s explanation didn’t end even after a moment had passed.
Seolhwa puffed out her cheeks and waited for Hanbin to finish his explanation.
I glanced to the side and saw people starting to gather.
People passing by stopped and looked this way, then they all said something.
I couldn’t hear it, but judging by the expression on her face, it seemed like she was the one here.
Some people spent a considerable amount of time listening to Hanbin’s explanation.
That was when.
I heard a growling sound coming from next to me and looked to see Cheonghwa touching her stomach.
The little prince was completely out of his mind.
Seeing that, Seolhwa seemed determined and shouted.
“Master, we are hungry!”
“Okay, but since I started, I have to finish it.”
“It’s almost over, right?”
“It’s just the beginning, Seolhwa.”
“omg.”
As Seolhwa let out a scream, Hanbin smiled and continued speaking.
“Let’s go up now. I’ve checked everything that needs to be checked.”
“Huh, what did you check?”
“that…….”
“It’s a secret, right?”
Seolhwa followed Hanbin with a smile.
As Hanbin entered Manhyanggak, a stray dog quickly ran over to him.
Jeomsoi was wearing a hat with letters written on it.
Seventy-two (Seventy-two Lee).
The seventy in front is Jeomsoi’s unique number, and the number written behind it is Jeomsoi’s last name.
This was a unique feature of Manhyangru.
The vendors at Manhyangru here receive their share of the sales according to their income.
Thanks to this, they are evaluated as the friendliest in the entire Central Plains.
Of course, this evaluation was limited to customers who spent a lot of money.
Jeomsoi’s waist was bent like a scythe.
“Come on in. Where should I take you? Manhyanggak is from the first floor to the eighth floor… … .”
Hanbin showed his palm.
“Enough with the explanation, take your time looking around and then decide.”
At that sight, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa looked at each other.
Who has ever explained something so clearly that it hurts your ears?
But the person himself makes a stern expression as if he finds it annoying!
When Seolhwa turns her head, even Sogun nods.
Then Jeomsoi continued speaking cautiously.
“At our Manhyanggak, the prices are different for each floor, so first listen to the explanation… … .”
“Even though I explained it, let’s go up slowly for now. Don’t worry, you won’t have to come back down.”
Hanbin patted Jeomsoi on the shoulder with a kind face.
A bright smile appears on Jeomsoi’s lips at that moment.
Seolhwa clicked her tongue at that smile.
That was a real sales smile.
Hanbin began to slowly climb up each floor, guided by Jeomsoi.
Hanbin glanced over and nodded to Jeomsoi.
It was a signal to go up one more level.
By the time I got there, I was already on the sixth floor.
At this point, Jeomsoi couldn’t help but feel anxious.
That’s understandable, as the prices at Manhyanggak increase with each floor you go up.
But the food didn’t come out differently.
The quality is the same, but the price goes up.
The only difference was that there were more types of food you could order, and because it was expensive, it was easier to get a seat.
The higher the price, the higher the sales, but whether customers could afford the price was another matter.
Hanbin glanced at the sixth floor and nodded again.
“Let’s take a look at the next floor too.”
