By the time the training was over, dinner preparations were completed.

Did Yohwan show off his skills? Using ingredients purchased from Cheongho, she quickly created delicious dishes that seemed difficult to prepare outdoors.

“Uh… why are you giving me so much?”

“You have to eat a lot to be strong. I saw you training hard earlier. Everyone eat a lot!”

There was no one who did not admire the appetizing appearance and generous portions of the dishes on the plate.

While everyone was surprised, Changju and Yohwan headed towards the Moonlight Team members.

It seems that the Moonlight Team members also drink separately.

Of course, it doesn’t seem like a lot, but I think they are planning to join in and share.

In the end, the only people left in this campfire were me, Chae-jin, and Chae-ryeon.

“I seem to be uncomfortable.”

“I don’t think that’s really the case. ah. How about you two eat separately? Since we haven’t met in a while, I think we have a lot to talk about.”

But Chae-ryeon just smiled.

I don’t think the relationship between the two was particularly bad…

Well, it’s a bit different to say what the outside world says about family relationships.

There are better topics than that.

I asked while eating the dish Yohwan made.

“But where is the secret place you want to go from Munwoljeong, so you want to go all the way to Seomhwachon? ah. Of course, you don’t have to talk about it.”

Things like the location of secret places are mostly treated as confidential. Isn’t it natural? If you do your research and find it, but a strict guy intercepts it, it’s like having your fish stolen by a cat.

This would be especially true since it would be a very important secret destination if Chae-ryeon personally led it all the way to the Moonlight Pavilion at Moonwoljeong.

So, I asked without expecting much, but she answered indifferently.

“It’s a place called Hang-ah’s seat. It’s a little further from Yangwiseong Fortress.”

“The seat of Chang’a. Hang-a… Are you talking about Moongung Hang-a?”

“Oh my? Do you know?”

“I also have ears.”

The secret place known as Chang’e’s place is a secret place that Chang’e of Wolgung left to future generations. Famous for her beauty, as her name suggests, the Moon Fairy, she bestowed a blessing on her secret world.

Those who pass through the secret world will have light in their dignity.

Of course, as evidenced by the Heavenly Moon, the charm increased, albeit slightly, when passing through a secret area.

It was one of the secret places that people visited quite often because if the attractiveness increases, you can gain some benefit when buying things or negotiating.

“Ah. So, all of the Moonlighters who came with us were women.”

“Hehe. yes. That was among the information about the secret scenery remaining in our Munwoljeong Pavilion.”

“I see. So you just want blessings from Chang’e’s secret place? Not interested in compensation?”

“Hmm. According to the records, the only rewards you can get from Chang’e’s secret area are a moonstone and a few accessories left by Chang’e… Honestly, it’s not that much needed.”

If so, this is your chance.

Wolchangseok was needed.

You can make an amulet with the moonstone that Ochil gave you last time, but moonstone is also one of the materials to make an amulet.

While an amulet made of moonstone restores internal energy when the moon is up, an amulet made of moonstone restores stamina when the moon is up.

In that case, it would be beneficial to make it.

“Then can you sell the moonstone to me?”

“Huh? Would you like to make an amulet?”

As expected, it’s Chaeryeon. I know exactly what to use the Moonchang Stone for.

Well, if she was in charge of the Great and Minor Preceptor at Munwoljeong, she would have knowledge about these things.

“That’s right.”

“Good. I’ll just give it to you.”

“No. I will pay the price.”

“No. It’s really okay. what. It’s a bit weird to say he’s a minister.”

Chae-ryeon raised her finger.

“Actually, my father gave me one instruction.”

“What is that?”

“Find out more about the guest. ah. Did you ever feel bad? Then I will apologize on your behalf.”

“What could be bad? But why did your apprentice ask you to get to know me, who is just a guesthouse owner?”

“I’m not sure either? However, his expression seemed a bit serious. But actually, I don’t want to do background investigation or anything like that. Honestly, right? Not even a stranger. We, Moonwoljeong, owe a great debt to the guest.”

Is it because of the mining job?

But that story is already over.

I shook my head, and Chaeryeon smiled.

“That’s why. Can I visit Seomhwachon sometimes?”

Chaeryeon? I looked at her, and she also faced me with her unwavering gaze.

“I guess so. Actually, it doesn’t matter if you do a background investigation. Yang Yusheng’s Haomen branch has probably already completed the investigation.”

“Ahaha. Still, it’s a bit unfair for us to ask Hao Moon to do the work.”

“So you’re going to call for opening up?”

“That’s not true. Because I prefer to see and judge with my own eyes. And maybe what your father is curious about is not the past…”

Chae-ryeon briefly made the strange expression she had seen when looking at Chae-jin earlier and groaned.

Anyway, what are you curious about other than the past?

But instead of answering, she just grinned again with her fox-like face.

“Anyway. In that case, please don’t hesitate and make room for me. Of course, I plan on paying for the room too, so don’t worry.”

“As long as you don’t smoke, I’ll smile and show you to a nice room. And I won’t charge you for the room either. Just as Chaega welcomed me as a guest, I will also invite you as a guest.”

Chaeryeon laughed even harder at my words.

After that, nothing special happened while moving. We took the Gwando and arrived at the guesthouse on the scheduled date, and Chae-ryeon’s eyes sparkled as if she was amazed as she looked at the guesthouse.

“Doesn’t it catch your eye?”

“Ahahaha. no. It looks pretty cozy and nice. The facial expressions of Jeomso and the servants also look good. I think I know why my sister likes this place.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. ah. It’s superior. I need some things before we go. Can I buy them here?”

“If you need anything, please choose it.”

Chae-ryeon smiled and went inside. Chae-jin, who was looking at her with concern, was looking at the guest with eyes that were shaking for some reason.

“I really feel like I’m home.”

“Is that so?”

“Hehe. yes. Then I’ll just unpack my luggage.”

“Ah. Before that, please show me Yohwan’s room. Wouldn’t it be okay if it was in the room next to Chae Sojeo?”

“Aha. I understand.”

She smiled brightly and took the awkward Yoohwan up to the guesthouse. Meanwhile, I spoke to Changju.

“The government will provide your home and workplace. I’m going to order someone to call the officers, so please wait.”

“I understand. But it’s a very quiet neighborhood.”

“Do you not like it?”

“Mmm. no. Because I’m the one who fought on the battlefield. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to stay in a place like this sometimes.”

From what you’re saying, it looks like you’ll be living a wandering life again later. But as long as you’re employed by the government, I can’t blame you for that.

How long has it been since I waited outside like that, smoking a cigarette? After Chae-ryeon came out after buying all the goods, and we were drinking tea and talking about the current situation, the servant I sent came with a government official.

“Please tell the mayor that I will come see you in the evening.”

“Oh. The Lord said he wanted to have dinner with me.”

“In that case, I guess I should take care of you. I understand. Please go. Changju. See you next time.”

Changju waves his hand indifferently and walks away. Chaeryeon, who was watching it, smiled.

“Do you get along well with the managers?”

“There is no need for us to get along badly.”

“I see.”

At that time, I saw Chaejin and Yohwan coming down from above. When Chaejin, who had changed into everyday clothes instead of the Moonwoljeong clothes she usually wore, brought Yohwan to me, she called Suksu inside.

“Yes? What’s going on? Nari.”

“This is a master who worked at the imperial palace. Make sure to learn a lot.”

“Ohhh!!”

Sooksu roared. It’s natural. If you are a servant of the imperial palace, you will have a lot to learn. If you learn it properly, you can go to Yangyu Castle and work there instead of Shimhwa Village.

“Oh. Lord, my lord. I’m not saying I’m leaving.”

“Haha. How can you stop someone who wants to go to gain experience and grow further?”

“Owner Nari… I will continue to work here!”

“Okay. I know your heart. Still, try to learn as much as you can. Because I know how hard you’ve worked here so far.”

I patted the shoulder of my servant, who was in tears.

To be honest, I also felt a little sorry for him.

I’ve been working hard all this while, but they’re suddenly downgrading me to assistant hostess.

However, it is fortunate that he seems to be quite satisfied with the current situation.

“Yohwan. Think of me as your disciple and teach me well.”

“Haha. okay. I guess you are ready, right?”

“Yes!”

Yohwan goes inside, taking Suksu with shining eyes. Chae-ryeon, who was watching it, grinned.

“Ah. Now I have to go too. Guest owner. See you next time then.”

“Come anytime.”

“Haha. Thank you for your hospitality. And my sister. Talk to me for a moment. Please at least pick me up outside the village.”

“Huh? okay. okay. Guest owner. I’ll be back.”

After the two of them left the guest house, it became a little quieter.

ruler. Then, should I try to do some of the overdue work?

When I returned to my room, I looked at what had happened while I was away.

There are no special problems.

So, shall we start with the last one?

After working like that for a while, I looked up to take a break. There was a knock on the window.

When I opened it, it was a mail door.

“I came a few days ago, but since you were away, I came again.”

“Hmm. I went out for a moment.”

What Post Office Mundo gave him with a nod was four letters.

One is the management statement of my buildings and land in another city.

And the other two are Cheonghoe Sangdan.

One last thing…

“Oh.”

It was sent by Sayun.

The first thing I did was grab the letter Sayun sent me and sit down on the chair.

ruler. What’s in it this time?

***

Chae-ryun’s thoughts when she first saw that scene were questionable.

What did I just see?

What happened next was astonishment.

A person who was called a ghost by Moon Woljeong’s foreign students and taught them mercilessly would teach them so kindly? No, apart from that, why are you so surprised that I only touched you a little?

The last one was laughter.

and. I can’t believe I got to see this amazing and fun sight alone.

I want to show it to my father and mother.

Although there were many other complex emotions mixed in, the ending was pure laughter.

Honestly, it’s fun.

A scene I thought I would never see in my life unfolds before my eyes, but does it make sense if it’s not fun?

How hard was it to hold back laughter at that time?

Anyway, after that, Chae-ryeon looked into the person who made her sister like that and was able to come to a conclusion.

Not a bad person.

This was the judgment she made about Yuwol as a result of her observations after their first meeting in Cheongho.

He treats people seriously and hates being pressured by his position.

He was also a person who knew righteousness and duty, and when he focused on one goal, he worked sincerely and steadily to achieve it.

If you look at the way they treat the guest clerk, the host, and the employees of the company, it seems like they have a lot of integrity.

So, it could be said that he was a good enough person.

‘And… my sister may be a fool, but she’s not the type of person to be swayed by bad people…’

Also, my sister was changed.

That alone was enough to say he was great.

As expected, Chaejin always pursued only extreme pleasure.

He believed that nothingness was something he had to find alone, and that through this he would overcome everything.

The joy is playing solo.

That’s why Chaejin, who pursues pleasure, was able to grow faster than others.

But what about Doon?

Dun is slow.

Therefore, although it was slow to carry a lot of things around, it was able to take bigger and more things with it.

The two are opposites, and it was never easy to have both at the same time.

Chae-jin was accustomed to leading alone and going alone, so Chae-ryeon thought that she would pursue only pleasure throughout her life.

But she knew Dun and got Moonlight Island?

It’s obviously because she realized that she had to slow down to take care of other things.

Chae-ryeon was convinced that what Chae-jin was trying to take was June.

Otherwise, there is no way Chaejin would have made that kind of expression while secretly spying on Yuwol during the training, or even during the training.

Oh my god. Oh my god.

So how can you stay still?

“What are you talking about?”

Chae-ryeon, who was continuing her thoughts as she led her out to the entrance of the village, looked up when she heard Chae-jin’s voice.

She nodded towards her older sister, who was looking at her with a sullen expression.

okay. Miu or Gou are my older sisters, so I have to help them.

Of course it’s not free.

I planned to visit often and see this interesting sight.

“Sister.”

“Hmm?”

“Just trust me.”

“…What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

‘You can fool other people’s eyes, but you can’t fool your own eyes.’

After learning martial arts, Chaejin was a wall for her and a goal to overcome. Therefore, Chae-ryun, who had always observed Chae-jin, could already tell what kind of feelings she had.

That’s why Chae-ryun thought to her with a triumphant look on her face.

Let’s give my sister one of the traces of Chang’e that can be found in this secret area.

After all, aren’t men fascinated by pretty women?

Just like it appears in the romance novels I’ve read countless times.

Love is something to conquer.

In the process, there are very few weapons that are as good as their beauty.

Therefore, Chae-ryeon pledged to do her best to help her sister, who neither knows how to decorate nor has ever decorated herself.

Of course, to be honest, I couldn’t deny the desire in my heart that if I didn’t interfere with such fun things, then why should I interfere, but I decided to ignore it for now.
