“Well, there at that time. I thought I should show my strength.”

Hesitatingly, Geomseong began to talk. It was a random story, and nothing special.

“Owoldang kept trying to bring in Hong Seong-moon, harassing and provoking Ryeon and trying to get her involved in the fight against Sapa.”

Of course, if forces like the Demonic Cult come in, ‘I will kill that guy and I will kill you!’ Although we cooperate in this way.

The Murim Alliance and the Four Heukryeons could generally be said to have a hostile relationship.

Therefore, it was not strange for the Murim Alliance to have strong warriors or sects within the alliance participate in the battle against the Four Black Dragons.

However, the problem was that the Ohwoldang kept sending Hongryeon into rough terrain, especially where there were factions that were at odds with the Ohwoldang.

Not all political factions get along well with each other. There were many cases of hostility between each other based on their own interests or their own ideologies.

In Cheonsangmyeongwol, Hongseongmun is a sect that went extinct during the reign of Seojang. As such, it is difficult to confirm the particularly hostile relationship between the factions, but as the process progresses, it can be seen that Hongseongmun was ignored by Geomhongak.

Therefore, Owoldang, built by Geomhongak’s lay disciple, must have thought similarly.

“Geonhongak was a Taoist sect, right?”

“Hmm. exactly. It seemed like they didn’t like the fact that I was given the title of Sword Saint.”

As can be seen from the name of the sect, Geomhongak is a sect that values putting one’s soul into the sword. In other words, it could be said to be a strong sword wave.

But at Hongseongmun. And since he earned the title of Sword Saint from a sect that didn’t just use swords, that must have been heartbreaking.

In particular, it must have been more annoying because the power of the sect itself was greatly reduced due to what happened at Hongseongmun.

“So, while touching Ryeon, I sparred with him and hoped to get the Sword Saint’s star title…”

“So you came forward?”

“Mmm. That’s right.”

Originally, such a provocation could have been either snorted or Hong Seong-moon could have requested mediation by saying he would withdraw from the Murim Alliance.

However, Geomseong did not tolerate it, and attacked the Murim Alliance and devastated Owoldang.

“And then the footnote of Sword Soul Pavilion came…”

“What happened?”

“You won.”

Geomseong responded casually and I was impressed.

As far as I know, the footnote of the Sword Soul Pavilion is someone who has trained only with the sword for decades.

I can’t believe I beat someone like that. It’s not normal either.

As I admired it, Geomseong looked at me slightly and seemed a little flattered.

“I won without difficulty.”

“That’s amazing.”

Praise can make even a whale dance, but it seems like it could make a sword saint dance too. She trembled slightly and was happy, then opened her mouth.

“Hehehe. It’s okay if I don’t praise you that much.”

“I see.”

“…….”

When I stopped praising, Geomseong looked at me blankly.

I pretended not to, but I guess it was nice to be praised.

“Well. I’m at the level of a sword master… Na Yerin. That would mean nothing to you. It’s really amazing.”

“Hu, huhuhu.”

Finally, as if she was somewhat satisfied, she nodded.

“Anyway, we won then, and we decided not to fight with Hong Seong-moon anymore at Geomhongak.”

I nodded and the smug Geomseong sighed softly.

“Of course, many places were damaged in the process, so we had some trouble raising the cost of repairs…”

“…Ah.”

“….ugh. But the Murim Alliance said it would be resolved…”

“I see. Well done.”

Geomseong opened his eyes and looked at me.

“Really? But I heard you hate fighting…”

“But when we fight, we have to fight.”

This is especially true when it comes to catching those who tried to use Hong Seong-moon.

“Why don’t you just put an end to the Sword Soul angle?”

“I tried to do that, but there was a lot of dissuasion from those around me… and it didn’t seem like footnotes from Sword Soul Pavilion would attack me anymore.”

If the Sword Master had judged it that way, it would have been so.

In fact, even in the bright moon of heaven, Sword Soul Pavilion generally showed a favorable attitude, except when Sayun visited.

Of course, he was openly wary when Sayoon visited him.

It seemed like they were afraid of Hongseong Shingong itself.

“At that time, I achieved victory and obtained the Twilight Sword, the treasure of the Sword Soul Temple.”

“Oh… where is that?”

“It’s in Hong Seong-moon’s warehouse. ah. Do you want to see it?”

In Bright Moon of Heaven, the Dusk Sword is an item used during events related to the Sword Spirit Hall. If you give it to me, you can get the Sword Soul Sword from the Sword Soul Pavilion as well as an elixir.

But that was when Hong Seong-moon disappeared… Is that still possible?

I thought for a moment and shook my head.

Well, it’s probably not urgent right now, so let’s think about it later.

“Anyway, well done. And?”

“That, and…”

Geomseong hesitated and told me what he had done. The number of times she personally stepped forward was so small that she could count them on one hand.

But all of those things were fought because they were worth fighting for, and the sword was drawn because it was worth pulling out.

“Well done.”

“Hehehe. Thank you for your understanding.”

Geomseong smiled brightly and leaned his head on my shoulder. As I was looking at her, I confirmed that all connections had been made and stood up.

“Now it’s time to get to work.”

“Hmm… I see. Let’s go.”

“Uh. You can just rest here. Or you could at least talk to Yohwan. At the moment, Yohwan is making a new dessert.”

It was a warm day and I wanted to try making new snacks, so I applied. Geomseong’s eyes sparkled at my words, then he shook his head in surprise.

“Well, can’t I just stay by your side?”

It won’t work, though.

Still, if you’re a swordsman who likes sweet things, wouldn’t it be better to help Yohwan?

“Then let’s do it like this. I will ask Yohwan to call me when it is completed. I have to taste it anyway. How about eating it together?”

“That’s good!”

Geomseong was visibly pleased and held my arm tightly.

I was working in my office for a while when Jeomsoy called me. When I went down, there was a cyst coming out.

“Hmm. Since I have Geomseong, it’s easier to taste various things.”

“Hehe.”

Geomseong looked at me with a proud expression. what? Are you asking me to praise you?

“I am always grateful and depend on you.”

“I, too, am grateful and dependent on you.”

“Why don’t you say thank you later and try it?”

What Yohwan presented was a large, puffy soufflé pancake topped with a lot of cream.

Actually, it doesn’t exist in the bright moon of heaven, but I talked to Yohwan and asked if she could make it, and she found the ingredients and succeeded.

“We’re here~!”

At that time, I heard a sound from the backyard. It was Hongryeon and Sayun. Is the patrol over? Hongryeon, who came into the guesthouse, looked at Geomseong and me, kept her mouth shut for a moment, and then gently approached me.

“Oh my? What is this?”

Hongryeon’s voluptuous breasts pressed against my arm. She asked me with a smile, whether I knew it or not, and I pointed to Yohwan.

“This is a new snack made by Yohwan. I made it to serve it when I ordered a more expensive dish, but since Geomseong has a great taste, I asked him to taste it.”

“Wow… really? But it seems like it might be a bit difficult to sell this?”

“Hmm. I guess so.”

Because you eat it while it’s warm.

When I nodded, Hongryeon kept her mouth shut for a moment and then leaned closer to me.

“Can you teach me how to make it?”

Hongryeon came so close to me that it was no exaggeration to say that her body was completely pressed against me and whispered in my ear.

and.

“Ryo, Ryeon?! Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable to stick together like that?!”

Geomseong spoke in a visibly trembling voice. In response to her scream-like dissuasion, Hongryeon smiled and gently fell.

“Can you teach me how to make it? Anyway, Hongryeon, you know quite a lot, right?”

This is Hongryeon, who often came to Yohwan to learn how to cook. Of course, I also learned how to make cookies.

Of course, there were more cases of snacks being bought here rather than making them yourself.

“Hehe. I think the sisters will like it.”

Meanwhile, Yohwan, who had gone inside, came out holding other glasses. It seems like they also made it for Hongryeon and Sayun.

“You made it quickly?”

“I made enough ingredients.”

Once I was seated like that, I sat down. And when Hongryeon naturally tried to sit next to me, Geomseong extended his hand towards her.

“Come here. Ryeon.”

“Master. Would you like me to sit next to you?”

“Ugh. of course. Yuni sits next to the guest.”

“Yes!”

Sayoon sat next to me. And after taking a bite, his eyes lit up.

“Wow! Wow!”

“Is it delicious?”

“Yes! It’s so great!!”

I’m glad you like it. I saw Nangeomseong and Hongryeon and they both tried it and found it to be quite delicious.

“Sweet and soft.”

“Is this imperial cuisine?”

“No. I just made it as the owner told me.”

Yohwan praised me, not including his own skills, but my advice wasn’t the only thing he had to offer in making this.

Since it’s about as good as it gets, it could have been made excellently even if there were some changes to the recipe.

I shook my head, and Yohwan chuckled.

“Anyway, I think this could be modified a bit more. I think you can make it a little sweeter by using a thousand plum blossoms.”

“Oh. Then, I’ll get you some thousand-day plum blossoms!”

When Sa-yoon brightly said that he could collect thousands of plum blossoms while training, Yo-hwan nodded.

“Then please do me a favor. But aren’t you busy practicing?”

“That’s okay! And if this sells well, it’s good for the guest, right?”

“Okay. Sayoon. It’s okay to focus too much on that, but do it whenever you have time. I will help you too.”

“Hmm. After all, you are my disciple. I will help you too.”

When Hongryeon and Geomseong also gave their permission, Sayun became more motivated, and there was no reason to stop her, so I just nodded.

“Okay. Please do me a favor.”
