Chapter 18: The Order of Teachings

“Ah, ahhh…?”

Empress Min could not understand at first what had happened to her.

But soon.

“Deep within this palace, there are beasts and beasts that I must teach a sharp lesson to, swarming about.”

As soon as he recognized Yeon So-hyeon’s voice ringing in his ear, flames rose up from the very bottom of his dantian.

It was anger.

“Gaaaamhiiiiiii-!”

How dare you lay a hand on me, the mother and empress of this Central Plains country.

It was something that couldn’t happen.

It was something that should not have happened.

“Yeonsohyun, you today-!”

Before her rage could explode out of her throat and eyes-.

Oh my god!

“evil?!”

It felt like the other cheek had burst open before the anger could even explode.

This time, all of my stats were pulled up to the max.

Far from avoiding it, I couldn’t even see Yeon So-hyeon’s hand moving or feel anything.

Thud-!

This time, I felt blood pouring out from inside and outside my lips and nose, as if my nose had burst.

Thud thud thud-!

The sight of blood dripping down the gorgeous white silk robe was enough to make Empress Min’s eyes widen.

“What, this is-?!”

While she was holding her cheek and not being able to find the right words to say, Yeon So-hyeon’s soft voice was heard.

“Even though this great teacher is personally teaching you, you are still bad-tempered.”

“…profit?!”

Those words, which sounded almost like mockery, were enough to stimulate the rage that had been raging inside her.

“Isn’t there anyone here…?!”

She shouted, looking outside with half-rolled eyes, splattering blood and spit.

“The Empress is under attack…! This Empress is under attack within the palace of this Central Kingdom…!”

How loud that voice was.

Pusss-.

Dust rose and fell from the main beams that had previously looked completely clean, and the emperor, who had no internal energy, had to quickly cover his ears.

and.

The reaction was immediate.

Boom!

The door flew open as if it was going to burst open, and one of the royal warriors rushed in.

“Huh, Your Highness?!”

He was the warrior who informed the Empress of the location where the Emperor would meet with Yeon So-hyeon and guided her there.

“W, what the hell is going on-?!”

He too, like the empress from before, had a hard time understanding the situation.

Empress Min sat on the floor, her cheeks ruptured and blood pouring out of her nose.

The emperor stood with his ears covered, and Yeon So-hyeon had her arms folded with a calm expression.

It was only natural that he couldn’t grasp the situation right away.

“Can’t you tell just by looking at it?!”

The empress pointed to Yeon So-hyeon, cursing with a bloodshot look on her face.

“That bastard attacked me! That bastard Yeonga attacked me, the empress of this country!”

“…that?!”

Crunch.

The imperial warrior could not hide his embarrassment and grabbed the sword hanging from his waist.

At that moment, the young emperor’s mouth opened.

“Go away.”

“Your Majesty…?”

Despite the emperor’s order to step down, the imperial warrior could not let go of the hand holding the sword hilt.

“Didn’t I tell you to step back?!”

By all means.

Even from the emperor’s mouth a roar burst out.

But then.

“What’s going on?!”

Woof woof.

The imperial warriors who had received an urgent call came running from the other side.

“Hey! What are the royal guards doing?!”

Woof woof.

On the other side, the guards who had been keeping their distance came running in shock at the sight of the imperial warriors running towards them.

“… … ?!”

“… … ?!”

Those who had rushed in, like the unmanned people before them, doubted their own eyes at the sight that unfolded.

“What are you guys just staring blankly at?!”

The empress shouted at them.

“That bastard is trying to hurt me…!”

Her eyes were half-rolled, giving her the look of a madman.

The words that came out were not words that came out in a sane manner.

“That guy is trying to kill me! Take that bastard out right now! No! Execute him! I mean execute him right now!”

Whatever it was.

It seemed an undeniable fact that Yeon So-hyeon had touched the empress’s body.

“… Prince Yeon.”

The imperial warrior holding the sword hilt slowly gestured toward Yeon So-hyeon.

“Get away from Her Highness the Empress. Now.”

“Can’t you hear what Jim is saying?!”

At that moment, a roar burst out from the emperor’s mouth once again.

“Didn’t I tell you to all step back immediately?!”

Empress Min also shouted like crazy.

“I said, bring that guy out and kill him right now…!”

“… … .”

The imperial guard’s mind became confused.

The emperor orders him to step down, and the empress orders him to drag Yeon So-hyeon out and kill him.

However, his worries did not last long.

“…first.”

He stepped forward, holding the hilt of his sword, and said.

“To protect the safety of His Majesty the Emperor and Empress, until the situation stabilizes. For now, Prince Yeon, you will be with us-.”

“What are you talking about…?!”

at that time.

The commander of the 1st Brigade of the Guards stepped forward and shouted.

“Didn’t you just hear His Majesty personally telling you to step down?!”

As the commander stepped forward, all the imperial warriors instinctively grabbed their sword hilts.

Clank, clank…!

Then, reflexively, the guardsmen grabbed their sword hilts.

“… … .”

“… … .”

A situation that could explode at any moment.

“… This is ridiculous.”

The imperial guard lowered his posture slightly and spoke in a low voice.

“You guys from the Jaygwan Guards Brigade, who are just a bunch of rags. How dare you get involved in royal affairs without even knowing your place?”

“… … .”

As the commander of the 2nd Brigade of the Royal Guards remained silent, the Imperial Guardsman bared his teeth in a snarl.

“So you guys have finally lost your temper because Admiral Lee Yeom-ik has taken over the position?”

If it were original.

It was impossible for the guards to block the actions of the imperial warriors who had power behind them.

“What are you talking about…?”

The guard commander’s eyebrows twitched.

“We only follow His Majesty the Emperor’s orders…!”

“under…!”

The imperial guard laughed.

“If that’s the case, protecting the safety of the royal family is our top priority.”

“that-?!”

Chaang, chaang!

As the royal guards drew their swords all at once, the guards had no choice but to take a hasty step back.

“Unmanned field… ?!”

The commander of the guard protested strongly.

“In the presence of His Majesty the Emperor, you draw your sword?! What on earth are you doing…?!”

but.

Even he who had climbed over the wall had no choice but to retreat with his subordinates in order to avoid being isolated alone.

“What are you doing…?”

Sigh.

Watching the scene with ridicule, the imperial officer said:

“Aren’t I currently on a mission to maintain order in the imperial court?”

“What is that…?!”

at that time.

Hahaha!

The laughter rang like thunder in everyone’s ears.

“… Huh!”

“… Hmm!”

The imperial warrior general and the commander of the royal guards, both of whom were masters who had climbed over the wall, were so shocked that they took a step back.

Others could only sway like waves.

“This is truly absurd.”

The owner of laughter, Yeon So-hyeon.

He spoke while looking down at the royal guard from a position where he was carrying his bags behind his back.

“The palace has rotted to the very core, and now even bandits who do not follow His Majesty the Emperor’s orders are running wild with swords in their hands!”

“What…?!”

All at once.

The imperial guard’s face distorted, turning red with shame and anger.

“What are you guys doing?!”

Empress Min cried out while sitting on the floor.

“The author of the Imperial Military General! Are you afraid of that guy who is only in his teens?!”

It was a remark that mercilessly scratched the pride of the imperial military commander.

“… Prince Yeon.”

The imperial warrior finally showed his patience, approached Yeon So-hyeon, holding the hilt of his sword, and spoke.

“I have heard that you have served well on the battlefield and are an excellent warrior, but-.”

“Up to there.”

Towering.

At Yeon So-hyeon’s words, the royal guard stopped walking without realizing it.

And Yeon So-hyeon’s soft warning sound was heard in everyone’s ears.

“With a sword in your hand, or more than that. If you come near His Majesty the Emperor, you will die.”

“under…!”

The imperial guard laughed in vain, boiling with anger and annoyance.

“This little brat, let’s see, let’s see…!”

No matter how angry I get.

He was well aware of Yeon So-hyeon’s reputation.

There is also a rumor that Yeon So-hyeon is a warrior who has reached such an overwhelming level that he is called a divine being.

I heard it so loud that my ears started to hurt.

So he didn’t let his guard down.

Far from letting our guard down.

At this moment, I was walking with my senses more alert than anyone else in this place.

I took a big step forward.

“No matter how great you are-.”

however.

His own voice sounded strange.

“Run, even if you say you’re excellent?”

Something was bothering me.

Is your vision shaking or moving away?

“Coolook…!”

Why is something hot rising from my mouth instead of my voice?

Is the only sound coming from the neck?

“Ugh…!”

Why the world is turned upside down.

He didn’t know until the last moment.

* * *

“… … .”

“… … .”

It’s as if time has stopped.

Everyone watched with their eyes wide open, forgetting to breathe.

Bam!

The head of the imperial warrior fell to the floor-.

Degurrurur-.

He rolled over, receiving everyone’s attention, and reached the Empress’s feet.

“talent…?!”

The Empress saw hot blood splattering on her face and all over her body and screamed as if she was about to faint.

“Kkiyaaaaaaaaaaah?!”

And with her scream, the body of the imperial warrior collapsed.

thud…!

“Kkiyaak?! Kkiyaaaaaaaah?!”

The head of the imperial guard that Empress Min kicked out in a panic while struggling, rolling on the floor with blood spurting out.

“… … ?!”

“… … ?!”

But even to that extent.

The imperial warriors simply froze in the same position they had been in when they drew their swords.

They didn’t dare roll their eyes, and they couldn’t even see the scar left all the way to the sky after blowing off the head of the imperial warrior.

‘Th-that’s…?!’

At least.

The commander of the guards who had been pushed back was able to clearly see the action from a distance.

‘Is that the god from the rumors…!’

Rather, that is why.

He too, did not dare to even breathe.

‘There was no exaggeration in the rumors…! There was no exaggeration in the rumors…!’

The rumor that Prince Yeon So-hyeon of the Luoyang Sword School had already reached a level of martial arts that could be called supreme was completely true.

“What are you guys doing?”

“… … ?!”

That’s why he.

When Yeon So-hyeon’s voice reached the guards, they felt as if the hair on their entire bodies stood on end.

“His Majesty the Emperor’s Grand Historian commands.”

The voice was neither shouting nor imbued with any special power.

“The guards are to immediately detain those traitors who dared to disobey His Majesty the Emperor’s orders, and control the surrounding area.”

But the commander of the guard immediately.

I had to follow that order.

“Hey, the guards, arrest the imperial soldiers…!”

The sound of the imperial warriors’ swords hitting the ground echoed loudly.

resistance?

That was impossible.

Although Yeon So-hyeon committed the absurd act of decapitating the royal guard in the middle of the palace.

Only later powers can take issue with that.

They were not mere drones who could lose their heads at any moment.

“Control the perimeter…! Call for reinforcements and control the entire perimeter…!”

Yeon So-hyeon turned around, leaving the guard commander running around shouting.

“… … !”

Empress Min, who was at the end of his gaze, seemed startled and seemed to be having a match.

“You kept me waiting.”

Looking at her like that, Yeon So-hyeon said with a smile.

“There is someone who needs to be taught immediately, so your turn has been delayed for a moment.”
