Episode 61. War of the Guests (2)

The two letters “change” are like bait used by fishermen, and are harsh words for anyone who hears them.

As expected, Seo Jae-oh’s expression changed.

“Change… … .”

When Seo Jae-oh tilted his upper body as if curious, Peng Mu-bin smiled brightly as if he had expected something like that and continued speaking.

“The new candidate for the Sogaju is not a swordsman, but a swordsman.”

“Oh, the swordsman of Pengga. This is truly a breath of fresh air.”

“Master, how about checking out the new wind for yourself?”

“Thank you, nephew. For giving me such good information. I’ll show you around quickly.”

“Then I will introduce you to the youngest at your convenience. Just let me know whenever you want. Private.”

“Then let’s go now.”

“Are you talking about now? It’s already time for you to go to bed?”

Peng Mubin couldn’t control the corners of his lips rising even as he waved his hand.

Seo Jae-oh’s arrogant personality that was fair to everyone would definitely be shit to Han Bin.

Wouldn’t this be a way to vent some of my anger?

Of course, the ultimate goal was to kick Hanbin out of the house.

As expected, Seo Jae-oh heard the answer he had expected.

“Do you think that the four pillars have day and night for unmanned people?”

The title changed from nephew to nephew. Peng Mubin knows that Seo Jae-oh is upset.

He said he was going to have a public relationship.

In fact, the titles of private tutor and private disciple do not really stick in my mouth. His mother, Lady Jeonghwa, was once a lay disciple of the Hwasanpa and entered the school at the same time as the ‘Jeong’ character, so if you were to link them to a private tutor and private disciple, then I had no choice but to follow suit.

Well, he didn’t like it, but Peng Mubin decided to go with his rhythm for now.

“You are right, sir. I will guide you.”

“Hmm, I think it’s a bit too formal to call me elder.”

Contrary to what he said, a smile bloomed on Seo Jae-oh’s face.

Seo Jae-oh stood up from his seat and put a sword with a distinct plum blossom pattern on his waist.

A while later, in front of Hanbin’s residence.

Peng Mubin was at a loss as to what to do in front of Hanbin’s residence, like a puppy that needed to poop.

I was thinking of barging into Hanbin’s room to irritate him, but the problem was that no matter how much I called, there was no answer because there was no one inside.

“Sajil, what is going on? Is this how guests are treated in Pengga?”

Seo Jae-oh, who was insolent, started shooting arrows at Peng Mu-bin.

“Oh, no. I definitely heard that you’ve never been outside of Pangka.”

Peng Mubin emphasized the word ‘clearly’ several times.

“Then where on earth did that guy disappear to? Was there a hole in the Pangga?”

“I’m sorry. I’ll look into it again.”

Peng Mubin slightly lowered his head and nodded to his subordinate. It was a signal to find out Hanbin’s whereabouts.

“hmm.”

Seo Jae-oh coughed in vain, unable to hide his displeased expression.

Even though the moon had risen, Seo Jae-oh and Peng Mu-bin did not know how to leave Han Bin’s quarters.

Not far away at that moment, there were two pairs of eyes looking at them.

* * *

A small bamboo forest a little distance from Hanbin’s residence.

There, Hanbin was eating dried pollack on a bamboo rocking chair.

Hanbin’s gaze, chewing on the dried pollack, was fixed on his own room.

Hanbin, looking at the place, raised the corners of his lips slightly as if he found it amusing.

Then a black shadow appeared.

“My lord, I have brought you the information you instructed.”

“Deputy Chief Sim Mi-ho, you’ve gotten a lot faster.”

“Is this basic? But, my lord… … .”

As Sim Mi-ho trailed off, Han-bin nodded nonchalantly.

“Tell me, Lieutenant Shim.”

“You will give me overtime pay, right?”

“hmm.”

“Master, I have been up all night and day. Look at my face. It’s not like I’m some dried jerky… .”

Sim Mi-ho kept complaining about her work. Her complaints were not false. After completing the wolf subjugation mission, Sim Mi-ho was assigned to watch over Madam Jeong-hwa’s surroundings.

It is true that I stayed up three days and nights with my eyes wide open.

Thanks to that, he knew in advance that Peng Mubin and Seo Jaeoh would barge in on Hanbin.

Maybe if you were at your residence?

I might have been in trouble.

Hanbin said with a meaningful smile while looking at Sim Miho.

“Don’t worry, Chief Sim has a lot of money.”

“Where do I get my money?”

“There’s money I left for you, Vice President Shim. Use it as you see fit.”

“omg!”

Sim Mi-ho opened her eyes wide in surprise.

“Why are you so surprised? Deputy Chief Sim.”

“Well, the amount you just mentioned is too much.”

“What kind of money is that? It’s money that was ripped off from children’s noses.”

“You entrusted me with the money that would come in from Hwangbo Se-ga and the money that would come in from Baekdo-mun in Shandong. It’s over two hundred nyang in silver coins… … . Now that I think about it, you said it was money that you had borrowed, right? Are you saying that the money that comes in from Hwangbo Se-ga was money that you had borrowed?”

“Hey, why are you so surprised? Is this the first or second time I’ve said something nonsensical? By the way, show me what you’ve researched.”

“Oh, here it is, my lord.”

Sim Mi-ho handed over the letter more politely than ever.

Hanbin’s expression changed from moment to moment as he read the letter.

The temple now recorded in detail information about Seo Jae-oh. He was a plum blossom inspector of the Hwasan faction, and his distribution was high for his age, with a ‘Jeong’ character distribution.

His father was the commander of the Xi’an Manjin Battlefield.

Although he was trusted by the elders of the Hwasan faction, he was actually just a money man.

They say that Mrs. Jeonghwa caught that line.

Because I was in a hurry, I seemed to have mistaken the poop for soybean paste.

The most important thing is that the name Seo Jae-oh did not exist in Hanbin’s memory.

What about the story that Seo Jae-oh, who is currently a plum blossom inspector, has no memories of his past life?

This is an award that will lead to an early death.

After reading all the information related to Seo Jae-oh and Madam Jeong-hwa, Han-bin raised the corners of his lips and handed the letter back to Sim Mi-ho.

“Deputy Chief Sim will take care of burning this.”

“Why are you like that?”

“I’m not at the level to burn a temple with Samadhi yet.”

“No, that’s not it. I was just wondering if you didn’t like the information.”

“This much information is great, I like it. Keep it.”

“But why are you telling me to burn it? Just keep it and take it out when you need it.”

“Oh, that’s true… … .”

Hanbin trailed off. This was because he discovered a different side of himself from his past life during his conversation with Sim Miho.

The letter delivered by Sim Mi-ho was relatively detailed.

But, remembering such a vast amount of information in one go felt like discovering a new ability.

Was the upper body open? Hanbin unconsciously touched his head.

Sim Mi-ho asked at that sight.

“Is something wrong?”

“No, it’s okay. If you have any dried radish greens, leave them.”

“This is the last one.”

Sim Mi-ho took out the dried radish greens that contained the extreme cold from her bosom.

Hanbin looked at his own quarters as if he was watching a Peking opera.

The conclusion was simple: there was no need to confront them.

Hanbin, who had made up his mind, looked at Sim Miho.

“Tomorrow, I will be admitted to the prison again.”

“Yes? What do you mean? I said I would stay here for about a month, my lord.”

“Plans have changed.”

“Is it because of him?”

Sim Mi-ho pointed to Seo Jae-oh, who was far away.

“… … .”

Hanbin just smiled silently. This meant he agreed. Sim Miho said, getting angry.

“I would rather kill the guest from the Volcano faction, my lord.”

“Deputy Chief Sim?”

“Yes, my lord.”

“Is Deputy Chief Shim’s escort or a lifeguard? What if he tells you to kill the Hwasan faction? How many times have I told you to pay attention to your relationship with the other factions?”

At Hanbin’s scolding, Simmiho raised her head and looked up at the sky. There was nothing wrong with what her lord Hanbin said.

However, did Hanbin strengthen his relationship with other sects? Shim Miho could bet a hundred nyang that it was absolutely not true.

It was only recently that the pockets of the sects and families belonging to the Justice Alliance were completely emptied.

However, Hanbin was thinking completely differently.

The problem wasn’t the guests of the Volcano faction.

In Hanbin’s view, it was highly likely that Madam Jeonghwa would bring another guest. Given Madam Jeonghwa’s personality, she would likely seek to increase her power by reaching out to the Hanam political family.

Hanbin walked out of Habukpangga’s front door like lightning.

A guard warrior from Habukpengga gave a prize to Hanbin while holding a sword.

“Your Majesty, have a safe trip.”

“Hmm, okay. I’m doing well.”

“Thank you. I hope you will achieve great results in this training. I hope that your future will be filled with boundless luck.”

The escort kept bowing his head. As expected, money has amazing power.

Until recently, the guard had been looking down on Hanbin. However, thanks to Sim Miho’s slight oiling, the guard began flattering him as if he had been covered in honey.

“Okay, thank you.”

“But, Confucius.”

The security guard whispered quietly as if conveying a secret.

“Why are you doing that?”

“The Hwasanpa nobleman is waiting up ahead.”

I think he was talking about Seo Jae-oh. I thought his only flaw was that he was arrogant, but he was also persistent.

It was like a child begging to be bought a toy.

“Okay, I understand. Thanks again.”

After finishing speaking, Hanbin glanced behind him. His eyes met with Sim Miho’s and she slipped a few coins into the guard’s pocket.

“Oh my, thank you. Your Majesty, your Majesty, may you live long and prosper.”

He smiled so brightly that flowers bloomed on the guard’s bushy beard.

Rattling.

The gate opened and Hanbin came out of Habukpangga. As the guard had warned, Seo Jae-oh and Peng Mu-bin were waiting there.

As Hanbin walked forward, staggering forward as if he didn’t see them, Peng Mubin came running towards him urgently.

Peng Mubin, who was blocking Hanbin, said.

“Youngest, where are you going in such a hurry?”

“… … .”

Hanbin looked at Pang Mubin in silence. It was because he didn’t like the way Pang Mubin treated him like this.

Until recently, it was Peng Mubin who had been leading the plot to poison himself and the Tiger Clan.

It was a relationship where it wouldn’t have been strange if they pointed knives at each other’s throats at any time, even if they just didn’t act.

Moreover, since it was a time for self-reflection, Peng Mubin’s actions seemed reckless.

Paeng Mu-bin continued speaking, not paying attention to Han Bin’s indifferent expression.

“I came to introduce the youngest to the great swordsman of the Hwasan faction.”

As soon as Peng Mubin finished speaking, Seo Jae-oh of the Hwasan faction stepped forward as if he had kept his promise.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Jeong Myeong, the plum blossom inspector of the Hwasan faction.”

“Ah, you are the great swordsman Seo Jae-oh of the Man-geum Battlefield.”

Hanbin politely accepted the offer. However, Jeongmyeong Seo Jae-oh, the plum blossom inspector of the Hwasan faction, glared at Hanbin with narrowed eyes.

It was a kind of provocation to call him Seo Jae-oh of the Man-geum battlefield instead of the Hwasan faction’s Jeongmyeong.

Seo Jae-oh continued speaking.

“The reason I came to see you is… … .”

“Just a moment, Master Seo Jae-oh. I have a busy place to go, so I will greet you separately later.”

“Oh, you’re a little impatient. I’d like to teach you the Hwasan Sword myself, but this opportunity won’t come often.”

After finishing speaking, Seo Jae-oh slightly raised the corners of his lips. His eyes seemed to be hoping for something while satisfying his curiosity.
