episode_0009

Should I say it’s true, or should I say it’s natural?

I knew from the past that Hongryeon was a member of the same company as me.

The original arm is bent inwards. In that case, what I should do is stand on Hongryeon’s side.

“Then is that why you came to see me?”

Nod. As soon as Hongryeon, who had been hesitant, nodded, Chaejin’s sharp eyes fell on me.

“What does this man have? No way, I will attract a man from Hongseongmun. It’s not like that, right?”

“Ummmm…”

Hongryeon couldn’t say anything. And then, he blushes slightly and hesitates.

“Well… it’s a bit awkward to say it here…”

And then I take a quick glance at Chaejin.

Hmm… I can roughly understand why. After calling Hongryeon, I whispered in her ear so softly that Chaejin couldn’t hear.

“Are you here to ask for a credit?”

“Ugh.”

I flinch, and my shoulders, which were always proudly straight, tremble. haha. Well, I guess so.

Because Hong Seong-moon’s maintenance expenses are made up of Hongryeon’s activities.

Therefore, if she needs to find the elixir and break through the secret world, she will need someone to fill the void.

But what if there are no requests given to other disciples right now?

Since there are so many mouths and there is nothing to give, it would be natural for Hongryeon, who is in need right now, to find the nearest me.

According to Hong Seong-mun’s policy, he will not open his hands to his disciples’ families or other clans.

“…It’s very embarrassing to say.”

Hongryeon lowered her head with a red face, and I patted her shoulder.

“We are not strangers. I can do that much.”

“What?!”

We are Sayundan!

People running for one goal!

If that’s the case, what can’t you do for that kind of trauma?

In fact, I would like to just give it as a gift, but that is Hong Seong-moon’s policy, but it is no different from trampling on Hongryun’s pride.

So it would be better to do it on credit here.

We are Nami!

“As I said before, you are also my child.”

“…Uh. Um.”

“It wouldn’t be a bad thing to lean on an adult sometimes. Even more so if that person is someone you recognize.”

“Did I… admit it?”

Did you forget?

I shrugged my shoulders at her, who looked quite embarrassed.

“You didn’t say I was a good person.”

Surprisingly, the eyes that Hongryeon is so confident in focus on me.

As I always say, I look up to the sky and live without a single bit of shame.

Even if you looked at it that way, nothing would change.

“…That’s right. You were a good person. I acknowledged it.”

And silence again. What comes out afterward is a deep sigh.

“In that case. Can I look forward to it a little?”

“Of course. But this is a loan, so make sure to repay it.”

“What! what! What? What are you two whispering about?! Are you two really dating?!”

That local broadcast is noisy. Ignoring Chaejin, who was shouting angrily next to me and widening her eyes, I turned to face Hongryeon, who was looking up at me with wide eyes.

“…Is it really okay?”

“Of course!”

If the reason you want to make a puncture is to strengthen Sayun, then what can I not do for you!

Hongryeon finally breathed a sigh of relief at my firmness.

And instead of his face being stiff like before, he looked up at me with a quite relaxed expression and blinked one eye slightly.

“Hmm… I won’t forget this favor. And of course, we will also make thorough calculations. However, if it is a personal request, I can accommodate it…”

“I have no intention of using Hong Seongmun, Geomseong, or any of your sisters, so don’t worry.”

If there is a guy like that in the first place, I plan to kill him first.

“As expected, my eyes were not wrong. You are a good person.”

To state the obvious.

There are no bad people among Sayundan.

I smiled at Hongryeon, and she also smiled at me.

“Ah. And, can we have that meal we talked about before tomorrow? I’m planning on feeding the kids well then…”

“It doesn’t matter.”

“Aaagh! Why are you both ignoring what I say!!”

That’s because there’s no need to listen to bad kids!!

Hongryeon, who had finished her business, left without hesitation, and Chaejin, who remained, only stamped her feet and tried to move as if she were going to leave.

However, right now there is only one guesthouse in Seomhwachon.

Since she would have to stay overnight if she left here, she grumbled and went into the guesthouse.

“Give me a room.”

“Eunja, I’ll be fine.”

Without saying a word, she placed the eunja on my hand. And as I was going up the stairs, I stopped.

“You. What is your relationship with Hong Seong-moon?”

What’s going on…

It’s a hard question.

Personally, I say we should cherish and maintain Hong Seong-moon, but I am not sure what they will think of me.

That’s why I didn’t answer, and she glared at me with a sullen look on her face and climbed up roughly.

“Are you okay?”

Chaejin is also a famous expert in Moorim. Some Jeomsoi approached me with concern, perhaps because they seemed to be on bad terms with the expert, but there was no particular problem.

Even if you get angry, what else can you do but kill me?

Moreover, since she is also a member of a political faction, she would not attack her so carelessly.

When I returned to the room, a postal messenger was waiting for me. He bowed as always, and what he held out was a letter.

Oh… did you send it this time too?

I smiled and opened the book.

I think I know a little bit about what it feels like to grow each day.

At Hongseongmun, every morning, in addition to basic physical training, we go for a run up Hongseongsan Mountain. At that time, I broke my record for the first time. Of course, it’s still the same as last place.

Looking back, they say that human growth is like bamboo after the rain, often growing suddenly.

The uncle said, ah. The letter you sent was well received. My benefactor told me to call you uncle, so I decided to use the title uncle.

Sister Yu-hee looked at the letter you sent her and said, ‘But wouldn’t it be better if you were a man?’ Although you said that. Still, I couldn’t ignore the title that my benefactor personally chose.

anyway. I think I was able to realize one thing after serving sweets to my sister-in-law with the eunja sent by my uncle.

Hongseong Shingong, Hongseongmun’s new technique, is a malefic star. In other words, it means a red star.

It’s that big, powerful, and ferocious.

Nevertheless, it is said that the evil spirit symbolizes sacrifice by burning oneself to protect others.

Therefore, getting rid of what was yours and sharing it with others was like a realization.

Is it because of that realization? The Ambassador taught me how to eat herbivores even though I still lacked a lot.

Of course, he said that he would teach me because I need to be able to protect myself.

At the same time, the training of other sister-in-laws was further strengthened.

Is that why? Even now, as I write this letter, my hands are shaking. Of course, this applies not only to me but also to other sisters-in-law.

For the sake of my other sisters-in-law who were having a hard time, I tried to buy sweets again with the money my uncle sent me.

But Ambassador Hongryeon told me to save the money.

The reason I have a hard time learning a new herbal medicine is because I don’t have enough stamina, and to increase my stamina, I need to get an elixir, but it’s said that elixirs can’t be obtained with just one or two silver coins.

However, I wonder if I can use the grace you gave me just for me.

But, it should be so.

I need to become a little stronger.

I heard it’s quite chaotic outside these days. I hope that the red star will bless you.

Thinking of you as a friend in the moonlight.

From Hong Seong-moon’s disciple Sayun.

P.s.

Lately, a shadow has been cast over the Ambassador’s smile. The Ambassador, who is always strong and dependable on everyone, are you having a hard time? What on earth is going on?

I hope that there will be someone with whom the Ambassador can talk openly like this.

A person like you who extended a hand to me when I was nothing!!

This is the reason why the cute round font is shaking a little. Well, even though it is the easiest method in the second half of Hongseong Shingo, it is a bit like forcing one to learn it, so it is bound to be difficult.

Even more so if she lacks strength.

As expected, what is urgent for Sayun right now is internal skills.

I tapped the writing pad and thought about it, then nodded, immediately picked up the brush, and quickly wrote down.

It was about time to prepare for lunch the next day.

Normally, workers preparing for an early lunch would have come into the guest house and asked for drinks and noodles, but today’s first customer was different.

What came in was a beautiful woman wearing an old but clean Hongseongmun uniform.

“I… Hello…”

As she came in hesitantly with a puzzled look on her face, Jeomsoy approached her.

“You came from Hongseongmun. Please come this way. Reserved seats are available.”

I heard Hongryeon’s story yesterday and told it to Jeomsoi. Is that why? The hesitant woman’s expression brightened slightly.

“But is it really okay?”

“It’s okay.”

“Oh. Do you want to be the guest?”

Smiling awkwardly, the woman grabbed me.

“This is Ryu Hyeon, Hong Seong-moon’s disciple. Instead of Grand Master Hongryeon, I brought my disciples.”

“Hmm? Nakilgeom?”

“Ambassador: He said he couldn’t come today because he had something to do…. me… and.”

She sighed softly. And the disciples who followed behind. After glancing at the lively sisters without realizing it, he muttered in a low tone, looking very embarrassed.

“Trauma…”

“Ah. Don’t worry about that part.”

“Thank you so much! How should I repay this favor…”

“That part was resolved by Nakilgeom. There is no need for you to worry, Mr. Ryu.”

When I spoke clearly, she was embarrassed but expressed her gratitude again.

Meanwhile, girls as beautiful as flowers enter the reservation room. After they went in, Ryu Hyun also went in, and I shouted towards the kitchen.

“Bring out the dishes you prepared!!”

“Yes!!”

A shout of Gisen is heard coming from inside, and after a while, the Jeomsoi enter the reservation room carrying dishes. First a simple porridge, then Jisamseon, a dish made with stir-fried eggplants and vegetables, a dish that boosts energy during the Moon Festival.

In addition, cheers and admiration were heard every time other dishes entered the reservation room.

Thinking that one of them belongs to Sayoon makes me feel very proud!

By the time the meal, which continued with loud, raucous, happy laughter, had come to an end.

The door opened with a squeak, and Hong Seong-moon’s disciples came out looking quite satisfied.

And among them, I found Sayun holding hands with a girl named Yoo-hee whom I saw last time, with a happy, melting eye smile.

You look happy.

Without any worries or shadows, it just shines like light.

At that time, my eyes and Sayun’s eyes met. When she recognized me, she slightly widened her eyes and tilted her head.

But my gaze did not change, and she smiled softly at me again and slightly lowered her head.

iced coffee.

It’s sweet…

It’s so sweet…

okay. I, we wanted to see this…

Now I am satisfied and have attained Buddhahood….

………

Now that I think about it, it’s not enough.

Give me more!!
