Chapter 15: The Lord of the Foreign House

Doo doo doo-.

Inside a running armored carriage.

“Excuse me.”

Since all the windows were covered, the deputy chief engineer was lighting a lamp.

Chiik-.

He lit the last lamp wick with the Samadhi True Fire and hung it on the wall of the carriage.

“hmm….”

The Duke of Sakong asked him while watching his actions.

“Vice President. I’m visiting the top management meeting. Is it okay if I don’t cover my eyes?”

Until just before Yeon So-hyeon arrived.

In order to visit the top management meeting, Sakongja Yeonbi had to follow the organization’s strict security rules.

You had to wear a blindfold, ride a four-person palanquin carried by agency agents, and go through a chaotic process of hiding your destination here and there.

“it’s okay.”

A calm answer from the deputy chief engineer.

“… I see.”

Sakongja decided not to think too deeply about Yeonbi.

Anyway, in the end.

It was much easier than going through all that trouble for security, and it was all thanks to my big brother.

And, if anyone.

If anyone is to receive special treatment in this Luoyang Swordsmanship School, it should naturally be their older brother.

Rather, it is for the four concubines.

This could be considered a satisfactory measure.

“hmm….”

And more than that.

There was something else that was confusing Sakongja Yeonbi’s mind.

He frowned slightly as he read the note he had received from his subordinate before boarding the agency’s carriage.

“The head of the foreign hospital… ”

He clicked his tongue softly.

“Another news related to the foreign capital…?”

“Outer lord, Hakunhyung (???).”

Deputy Chief of Staff Myeong opened his mouth after hearing the muttering soliloquy of Sakongja Yeonbi.

“Originally, the main branch of the family was a force that focused on diplomatic roles with external powers.”

As the deputy director said.

The usual business of the Luoyang Sword Master’s Office is as follows.

Rather than trying to get a bigger advantage by fighting with the other party or negotiating, the role was to maintain smooth external relations.

“As for the head of the household, the head of the household, there was only a difference in authority. Their roles were not very different.”

“It was like that, but then suddenly things changed.”

Tch.

Sakongja Yeonbi clicked her tongue and continued speaking.

“When our Luoyang Sword Family branches and collateral branches spread across the continent were oppressed by the Sixteen Clans, they-.”

The deputy director received the message.

“Right now, we wanted to solve the problem first through the foreign aid centers located in various parts of the Central Plains.”

Again, the four-legged reaper answered the question.

“Using that as an opportunity, the head of the foreign affairs department, Hakunhyung, suddenly rose to the center of a new, huge faction.”

“No matter how opportune the timing, it is truly an amazing feat.”

Deputy Director Myung stroked his scar and licked his lips.

“Who would have thought that the discontented forces stirred up by the heads of the sixteen clans who had visited Luoyang would be absorbed in such a short period of time…?”

His eyes narrowed like blades.

“At a time like this, what does he ultimately want?”

It is natural for those in power to covet power.

But the problem was timing.

At this point, all successors except Yeon So-hyeon have virtually been eliminated.

His actions in absorbing the opposition party were getting on the nerves of the people on the side of Grand Duke Yeon So-hyeon.

“… By any chance, Your Majesty, have you not yet met him in person?”

“It’s a shame, though.”

Sakongja Yeonbi shook her head and said.

“He originally spent more time away from home than at his parents’ house due to the nature of his work, and recently, after returning home.”

Sakongja Yeonbi shrugged her shoulders.

“He kept avoiding meeting me with excuses like his busy schedule. At first, I thought it was normal because he had a lot of work to do… .”

Before I knew it, he.

As he suddenly found himself at the center of enormous power, even that could only be interpreted as intentional.

“…Big brother.”

after.

Sakongja Yeonbi finally let out a short sigh.

He couldn’t help but disturb his older brother, who was meditating with his eyes closed.

“Do you know about the foreigner Hakunhyung?”

“… He’s Hakunhyung. He is.”

At that question, Yeon So-hyeon stopped meditating and slowly opened her eyes.

The four officers, Yeon-bi and Myeong, listened intently and focused on Yeon-seon-hyeon.

“He has a timid and weak nature, but he is good at seeing into people’s hearts and forming good relationships, so he was a talented person whom his father highly regarded.”

“…hmm.”

The deputy chief of staff nodded with a quiet voice.

“It matches the information we, the agency, had. He was never classified as dangerous. He never was.”

“It’s the same as the record on the personnel documents. But, that’s it.”

The servant shook his head as if he couldn’t understand.

“Isn’t this completely out of sync with your current course of action…?”

That’s right.

So, the situation in which power was rapidly concentrating on the opposing side, centering on the foreign minister, Hakunhyung, was clearly embarrassing.

“And then… .”

Sakongja Yeonbi said, pressing his temples as if he had a headache.

“You still haven’t clearly stated your ultimate goal, right?”

“That’s right.”

The one who received those sighing words was Deputy Chief of Staff Myeong, who smiled bitterly.

“If you’re talking about the head of an organization called the Foreign Affairs Office, which is usually quite vague, then you could say that it’s very typical of him… .”

“He is using the advantages he has to the limit.”

“Big brother…?”

“My lord…?”

Yeon So-hyeon said with an inscrutable smile.

“He is avoiding extreme claims or slogans, and is starting from the outside and now embracing the chaos in the prosecution. His credibility and position that he has built up over the decades are what makes this possible.”

“… Hmm.”

“Hmm, definitely. Yes.”

Sakongja Yeonbi nodded and agreed with Yeonseonhyeon.

“He’s using that strategy to gather people in an instant. Now, not only the opposition, but even those who have been watching the situation from a distance are hanging around the outside circle.”

at that time.

The deputy chief of staff said carefully.

“then….”

But he opened his mouth with a clear murderous look in his eyes.

“Can we just leave him like this…?”

The discontented forces that had lost their place to go were gathering, and too much power was being concentrated on the outside world.

And it was such a clear red flag.

“Even now, even below the surface, it would be better to start the check-.”

“No. That’s not it.”

Unexpectedly.

The one who opposed the deputy chief’s opinion was Sakongja Yeonbi, who had just been discussing the dangers of foreign capitalism with him.

“Your Majesty…?”

“If we hastily restrain him at a time when the foreign leader has not clearly stated his goals, we will end up narrowing our own position and helping him.”

“… Hmm.”

“It can’t be helped. My older brother has overturned so many things in such a short period of time.”

Radical change is met with equally strong resistance.

Yeon So-hyeon, who had been living in seclusion, made changes that were enough to turn the world upside down in a period of less than a year.

In the meantime, countless resistances followed, and they were all broken or suppressed by force.

“like that.”

The servant continued speaking with an attitude that there was nothing he could do.

“Now that the situation has reached the point where the eldest brother is about to ascend to the position of Sogaju, it is an inevitable side effect that will occur at this point.”

“… Ugh.”

As the words of Sakongja Yeonbi continued, the deputy chief engineer Myeong’s expression became serious and his voice became heavy.

“this….”

He held his head for a while and then let out a deep sigh.

“Is this how it is, surrounded on all sides by Chu?”

The unexpected rise of Hak Woon-hyung, a foreigner, as a hidden talent was also shocking.

But, above all else.

What weighs on his mind is the current situation where he can’t do anything right now.

It was that in itself.

But then.

“Haha…!”

Laughter erupted from the four noblemen.

“Your Majesty…?”

Sakongja Yeonbi waved her hand at Deputy Chief Myung, who was looking at her with a bewildered expression.

“Don’t worry so much…!”

The Sakongja Yeonbi spoke in a light tone as if to reassure.

“It was unexpected that the head of the household, Hak-un-hyung, suddenly appeared and did this, and it gave me a headache, too. But in the big picture, it’s going in the direction that my older brother wanted.”

“yes…?”

The deputy director’s eyes widened.

“Your Majesty, is this the direction you wanted?”

The answer to that question came not from Sa-gong-ja Yeon-bi, but from Yeon-seon-hyeon herself.

“okay.”

Dark room.

What was reflected along Yeon So-hyeon’s eyes was a fiercely vivid blue murderous aura.

Creepy.

“… … !”

Goosebumps ran down the spine of the deputy director, who had been part of an organization called the Agency and had experienced all kinds of battles in the deepest darkness of the sword.

Even though it wasn’t directly in Yeon So-hyeon’s sight.

“They say new wine must be put into new wineskins… ”

“… … .”

Gulp.

The voice of Yeon So-hyeon was heard by Deputy Chief of Staff Myeong, who had barely swallowed his saliva.

“Isn’t it impossible to put stale liquor in a new bottle that you’ve worked so hard to prepare?”

In his words:

Hua-ah, and so on.

I could smell the strong smell of blood.

* * *

“…so.”

His own father.

When the head of the household, Namgung Bukwi, heard the speculation of the King of Swords, Namgung Je, he covered his forehead and asked.

“The bottom line is, right now. All of this that is happening in the swordsmanship department. Yeon So-Hyeon, isn’t that what he wants?”

“okay.”

At King Namgung Je’s short answer, the head of the household, Namgung Bukwi, sighed.

“That’s possible, considering Yeon So-hyeon’s actions so far. It’s possible. No.”

He shook his head and rephrased his words.

“Even if that’s true, then.”

“… … .”

Silently.

Namgung Buk-wi, the head of the household, asked Namgung Je, the King of Swords, who was looking at him from the opposite side of the shaking carriage.

“That is, until the very end. Doesn’t that only have meaning when Yeon So-hyeon’s victory is certain?”

“yes.”

at that time.

With a squeak, the carriage of Namgung Se-ga they were riding began to slow down.

We have reached our destination.

“So, I came here to personally check again?”

As the carriage door was politely opened by his subordinates, King Namgungje stood up from his seat and spoke.

“Outer lord. To see if he has a chance or not.”

“… Phew.”

Every single word my father, the Sword King, said was something I could not help but accept.

Gaju Namgung Bukwi stood up from his seat with a deep sigh.

‘Right now, at this moment… .’

As long as I live, never.

Enormous interests that seemed impossible to obtain would have been on the move through transactions.

And, even at this time.

There will be people lining up all over the Central Plains to try to stop Yeon So-hyeon.

“… … .”

He shook his head, trying to shake off such thoughts, and opened his mouth.

“By the way… .”

Gaju Namgungbukwi raised his head and looked at the place they had arrived at and said.

“This is the famous Elder’s Hall of the Luoyang Sword Family…”

The Great Hall of the Presbyterian Church.

The towering pavilion blocked the dazzling autumn sunlight, exuding an awe-inspiring sense of grandeur with its massive size.

It’s been ten years since the world’s best sword fell.

Even though the Luoyang Sword Society is experiencing numerous internal problems, it is a presbyterian church with not a single dull corner.

That appearance seemed to show off the power of the best family in the world to the father and son of the Namgung family.

[…Why.]

Gaju Namgung Bukwi, conscious of the figures from the outer circle approaching, asked in a close-range tone.

[The head of the household is not the head of the household, but rather the elders’ house. Why did he insist on meeting his father there?]

Even.

Even the vice-chairman of the elders’ house, called Elder Ham, was not from the most enthusiastic Yeon So-hyeon faction.

[Still, isn’t the Elder House leader neutral?]

[But, Father-.]

[And, above all else.]

King Namgung Je of the Sword carried a backpack on his back and made a meaningful expression.

[Now, it looks like the head of the household, Hakunhyung, is about to make his move in earnest.]

“… … !”
