Episode 167

84. Appointed a representative – 1

After everyone had finished eating a satisfying dinner, Lee Han brought out dessert.

Everyone looked interested at the neat dessert they had learned to make at Sailor’s Mansion.

“Do they eat this kind of food outside the forest?”

“Yeah. Isn’t it delicious?”

“I like sweet things. Lee Han. What did you say this was?”

“Pumpkin mousse cake. Why? Do you like it?”

“I really like it.”

Tai Lung was holding a pumpkin mousse cake in both hands and was eating it absentmindedly.

Raul and Chiara, sitting next to him, were completely absorbed in the fire berry pie.

“Honey! This is so delicious!”

“That’s what I mean! Lee Han. It seems like your skills have improved?”

Ha-yan was sipping whiskey in silence and eating a little bit of cheese, ham, and sliced ​​moonlight tomatoes sprinkled with sugar.

That doesn’t mean he wasn’t satisfied.

Because he was satisfied too.

The only one who wasn’t eating anything was Seolhwa.

He just kept his mouth shut as if he was thinking about something and sipped makgeolli.

“Is there nothing that suits your taste?”

“… … That’s not it. Phew. Lee Han.”

“Please speak.”

“You can speak comfortably.”

“Yeah. Is there something you want to do with me?”

The eyes of those who are crazy about sweet desserts are riveted.

“Let’s have a go.”

The cabin family’s expressions became awkward.

Lee Han smiled brightly at them as they were contemplating whether or not they should come forward.

“I hate fighting. But you don’t get it, do you?”

“Yeah. I heard from those guys earlier. You said you wanted to be the representative of Daesurim, right?”

“okay.”

“I have no intention of denying that the witch is the master of the Great Forest. And I also know that the witch acknowledges you. However, that doesn’t mean I can tolerate you just standing above me.”

Seolhwa glanced at the representatives of each region.

Tai Lung became comrades with Yi Han by fighting together in the west.

Raoul became friends with Lee Han, who helped him resolve the crisis in the South.

White decided to acknowledge Lee Han, who was recognized by the witch for following the witch.

But he was different.

“I don’t like humans that much.”

“I know.”

“So let’s go purely. Purely. It doesn’t matter who is above, you or me. In the great forest where our people live, strength is the most important thing.”

“Huh? It’s not the West. It’s only the ignorant Eastern guys who call themselves leaders just because they’re strong.”

“The North is different. In the North, the wise lead everyone.”

“The South. It’s not like you can become a chieftain just by being strong. You have to have the ability to embrace everyone.”

“Poem, be quiet!”

As the representatives of each region spoke, Seol-hwa blushed and shouted.

The tail of the story stood up straight because he didn’t like what they said.

“So?! What are you going to do?!”

“It’s true that I want to be the representative, and if the way to convince you is to show force… … .”

Instead of taking the Holy Sword out of its scabbard, Lee Han tied the scabbard and hilt together with a string.

There was no need to use the blade at the level of a duel.

“Are you okay?”

Instead of answering, Lee Han walked out.

As he sat down in the wide open space that could be called the yard of the cabin, Seolhwa faced him with light steps and pulled out her sharp nails.

“It might hurt quite a bit.”

“Don’t worry. I’m practicing healing arts these days.”

In addition to using divine power to heal plants, he also healed animals.

Of course, the effect is still minimal, but if necessary, you can use the medicine that the dragon has prepared.

“You’re so confident.”

“How do you decide victory or defeat?”

“The one who surrenders or becomes incapacitated is the loser.”

“Hmm. Okay.”

As Lee Han nodded, Seolhwa took a stance.

It is a monster much smaller than the ones he catches leisurely in the forest.

Even if he could create something greater than the grace that God created, his power would not be as great as his own.

It was the moment when I was thinking like that and was about to run towards him.

“… … !!”

instinct.

The sharp instinct of the Suin tribe cried out.

You can’t go in.

I can’t run towards that man who hasn’t even drawn his sword.

My instincts were desperately screaming at me not to think lightly and rush in.

‘how……?’

Just standing there.

He just stands there with his sword slung over his shoulder.

But there are no gaps.

I had the feeling that no matter which direction I ran, my attacks would be blocked.

Seolhwa knew.

What is this idea?

‘Ugh… … !!’

horror.

Yeah, it was scary.

That horrible, terrifying feeling of helplessness that I had never felt before except when I was very young.

It was coming to my body.

“Fuck!!”

It was unacceptable to say that.

He is a strong person.

Suin is a proud dog who lives independently, unlike his ancestors who bowed their heads to humans.

So, you shouldn’t be afraid.

-Seeeeeek!!

Seolhwa’s arm moved with the sound of cutting through the wind.

Just before a large fist hits Lee Han’s face.

-Paaaak!!

“Ugh!!”

The sword, which had moved without even knowing when, mercilessly struck Seolhwa’s head.

It was at that moment that Seol-hwa, barely able to suppress her screams from the pain that felt like her head was being split open, was about to continue her attack.

-Pfft!!

The outstretched leg kicked Seolhwa in the chest.

Before I could even find my stance, I staggered.

-Bam! Bam! Bam! Papababak!!

The attacks were coming at a rate so fast that I couldn’t even see them properly.

Some are blocked, but some are stuck in the body.

Seolhwa couldn’t come to her senses due to the pain of digging into her thick hide that could withstand even the attacks of monsters.

‘What is this… … .’

The opponent is human.

A human being weaker than the Suin tribe.

They are weaker humans than the Suin tribe, who were gifted with a strong body and strength by the gods.

however.

But why is it like this?

“Eww!!”

Seolhwa, who had stepped back with a roar, quickly charged forward.

I can’t admit it.

He has no intention of submitting to humans.

“Take it!!”

Attack, attack, and attack again.

As Lee Han, who had been blocking the light-like attack, was pushed back, the corners of Seol-hwa’s mouth went up.

Yeah. This is it. This is it.

This is the power of the Suin tribe.

Seol-hwa’s confidence began to rise as she watched him barely block the attack, pushed back by his own strength.

“Let’s end it with this!!”

Use a strong technique to knock it down in one shot.

Seolhwa gathered all her strength and stepped back, then used her leaping power to rush at him.

-Paaaaaaah!!

And then I lost consciousness with immense pain.

‘They say he’s the representative of the East, but he’s no ordinary person.’

At this level, it is similar to Shredder or slightly stronger.

If I had fought calmly, it would have been more difficult to deal with him, but I was too excited to show my opening.

“The counter went in well. That guy. He was so excited.”

Hongryeon, who was watching while eating strawberry cake, blurted out a word.

There was no denying her words that she was the strongest here.

“If I had fought more calmly, I could have fought better.”

“Because I was losing the fight. I was intimidated when I saw the field that Lee Han made earlier.”

“It was the same when I drank makgeolli. I felt strangely concerned about Lee Han.”

While everyone was talking, Lee Han approached Seol Hwa.

I felt sorry for no reason when I saw him lying there with his eyes rolled back and his tongue sticking out.

“Explanation. Bring me some recovery potions.”

“Okay, I got it.”

After talking about the medicine that Yong and Letish had made and left behind last time, Illumination and Tree went into the cabin.

In the meantime, Lee Han used his divine powers to heal Seol Hwa.

“omg!!”

Thanks to the healing effect of the divine power, Seolhwa suddenly got up.

And then I looked around blankly and ended up lowering my head.

Lost.

I ended up losing.

“It would have been a close fight if it weren’t for the last attack.”

“… … It’s true that I lost.”

The grass was so dead that its ears were drooping and its tail was tucked between its legs.

The atmosphere was heavy for no reason. Lee Han looked at Seol-hwa and patted her shoulder.

“You counted too.”

“… … .”

“I would like to ask you to guard my field if possible.”

Seolhwa didn’t say anything to his words. She just stared blankly at Leehan.

“Lee Han. I brought you a potion.”

Lee Han placed the potion that the explanation had brought into Seolhwa’s hand.

Seolhwa, who was blankly staring at it, didn’t say anything.

“… … You are the winner. So you can do whatever you want.”

After finishing speaking, Seolhwa ran into the forest.

It was an acceptance of defeat and recognition of Lee Han as the representative of Daesurim.

As Seol-hwa ran away, Tai-rung put his arm around Lee-han.

“Then this is the end of the meeting.”

Tai Lung, Hayan, Raul, and even Seolhwa.

Everyone in the East, West, South, and North of Daesurim recognized Lee Han as their representative.

In that case, there is no need to hold a meeting.

“Then let’s have a drink!”

No one refused his cries full of joy.

Even though several days had passed since she returned from the central region, Seolhwa could not shake off her gloomy expression.

Lost.

I lost.

In retrospect, the last attack was a huge mistake that only a beginner would make.

How dare you make such a big attack when your opponent is not clearly weaker than you and you don’t have the upper hand.

It would be stranger if you didn’t get hit on the counter.

“Wow!!”

“Honey sweet potatoes!!”

It was when I was sighing heavily, blaming myself for my defeat.

A loud cheer was heard from outside the cave.

“What’s all this noise?”

“Captain! Look at this! The dogs from the central region brought it!”

Seolhwa tilted her head as the dog following her shouted.

In the center of the village were large pockets.

It was filled with sweet potatoes, sweet radishes, and other crops.

“……what’s this?”

“You said it was sent by a human named Lee Han from the central region?”

“What? Lee Han? Why him?”

“I asked you to convey this as well.”

Seol-hwa opened the paper given to her by her subordinate and bowed her head.

[It’s nothing special, but I hope you eat this and feel better. I said that you become friends while fighting. Come visit me whenever you feel better.]

It was a short piece of writing, but I couldn’t bear to look at it.

It wasn’t just a defeat by force.

“Captain. When are you going to the central region again?”

Seol-hwa, who was watching her subordinates cheering while looking at the crops, smiled bitterly.

“… … I’m thinking of going today.”

The moment my heart felt like it, I moved.

Seol-hwa ran quickly and arrived near the hut in the middle of the country, where she found Lee-han working in the field wearing a straw hat.

A man with such great strength was moving about in the sweltering heat, sweating profusely.

“……hey.”

“Oh. You’re here?”

The same indifferent expression as when we first met.

There was no sign of being happy, but Seol-hwa felt more comfortable because of that.

“… … You said you wanted to ask me to guard the field.”

“Yeah. I’m going to grow the elixir again later. I’d like to ask you a favor then.”

Seolhwa sighed as if the ground was collapsing.

Could it be because I feel that someone as strong as me, someone who can realize God’s grace with his own hands, is being acknowledged?

My heart started pounding for no reason.

“I’ll do it.”

“Thank you.”

“it’s okay.”

Seol-hwa, who was laughing, tapped Lee-han on the shoulder.

“We’re friends.”
