28. Reunion, Reunion.

Having received a report that Seo-hyun was rampaging, the Princess gathered her knights and sent someone to Yu-eun before departing.

It was meant to tell him that someone who claimed to be his maid was causing a ruckus in the city, and he should do something about it.

 

 

And that person was now delivering the current situation in front of Yu-eun and the women.

 

 

 

 

 

“Eum….”

 

 

Yu-eun groaned.

If Seo-hyun was rampaging in the city, he wouldn’t have the face to see the Princess.

 

Sora, who was covering her fair skin with a towel, approached Yu-eun as he pondered what to do.

 

 

“I was going to talk about it someday anyway… I think that person needs to be controlled. She was a complete mess even in modern times.”

“Didn’t you say she turned China upside down?”

“Technically, it was the People’s Liberation Army. Well, it’s the same thing.”

 

In addition, Seo-hyun was the one who forcibly entered a city full of civilians, made them sign an inhumane agreement, and took away a large number of beautiful women.

 

“But didn’t you throw a rock at a nuclear reactor, *nuna*?”

“…That was because the situation led to it, and… I cleaned up the mess pretty well afterwards.”

 

 

Yu-eun nodded.

He wasn’t planning on saying anything about it anyway.

 

 

The important thing right now was Im Seo-hyun.

She had an extremely excessive sense of loyalty, so if he took his eyes off her for a moment, she would start causing trouble indiscriminately.

 

 

Even when he was around, Seo-hyun had achieved quite a few accomplishments(?), and that was even in the modern era, where she was somewhat aware of the ‘media’ and created such a spectacle.

 

 

But this place was so backward that you had to send messages in person or by horse to report any incidents, let alone the media. No one knew how far her limits would be unleashed.

 

 

 

 

“The number of victims has already been reported to exceed 100, and considering the time it took me to run here, the number of victims will have increased even more. Please take action quickly.”

 

The woman who came as a messenger to Yu-eun said with a calm face.

 

“But you’re very calm in this situation.”

“A knight must not show emotion.”

“…Is that so? It’s a bit different from the knights I know. Anyway, since something happened, I have to go.”

“Thank you. I will take care of the horses.”

“Are you going too?”

“I have to go too.”

 

Yu-eun thought for a moment and nodded.

Since he knew almost nothing about the geography here, he needed the help of someone who was familiar with the roads.

 

 

“What are you going to do?”

As he was putting on some clothes, Yuna approached him this time.

She had just come out of the bathroom, looked around the messy room, and heard about the situation from Sora.

 

 

“Well, I have to go and stop her and bring her back.”

“If it’s that serious, the Princesses might have gone to the scene too. What if they say they’ll punish her on their own since she’s a criminal?”

“Hey. That can’t happen. She’s my person.”

 

 

Hearing his firm answer, she nodded and started putting on her clothes while wiping her still wet body.

 

 

Soon, Sonya came out of the bathroom, heard about the situation, and put on her clothes, saying, ‘Then I’ll go too.’

 

 

 

 

 

It took about 15 minutes for the group to finish preparing.

It would have taken much longer if the women had put on makeup, but it wasn’t a situation where they could do that.

 

 

“…Let’s go.”

But even that seemed late from the knight’s point of view.

She frowned slightly and got on her horse.

 

 

“Oh right, you said you were preparing a horse. Are you going to ride a horse?”

“…How else am I supposed to go?”

“I’ll hug you.”

“Yes?”

 

 

At the same time as her question, Yu-eun took her off the horse and put her on his shoulder.

 

 

“Kyaak! Wh-what are you doing…!”

“This is faster. Aheuk! Take good care of this place.”

 

He waved his hand at her, who was showing her middle finger with a sullen look, and immediately kicked off.

Then, the scenery changed rapidly in an instant, and when he came to his senses, he was above the clouds.

 

 

“Hiiiik??!”

“How can a knight be so scared with just this much? Come back to that calm feeling from before.”

“Wa…wawawawak.”

“Point me in the right direction, quickly.”

 

The knight pointed to one side with a trembling hand.

Indeed. The mansion yard in the distance was all painted with blood.

 

 

“…The Princess is there too?”

 

 

Just as Yuna said, the Princess and her knights were also in the yard. They all had grim expressions on their faces and were pointing their swords at Seo-hyun on the other side.

 

 

“Oh. This is a bit dangerous.”

 

 

Seo-hyun, who had unconditional loyalty to Yu-eun and even forced it on others,

and Lyudmila, who extremely hated Yu-eun and had clear beliefs of her own, so she didn’t listen to others.

 

 

If these two completely incompatible women met, something might go wrong.

 

 

“Let’s go quickly.”

 

Leaving those words behind, Yu-eun kicked off into the air first.

Breaking through several kilometers per second with the sound of a missile being fired.

His two legs were planted between Seo-hyun and the Princess, who were confronting each other.

“Freeze!!!!”

 

 

Seo-hyun, who had painted the yard with blood, was about to enter the mansion when she heard a sharp voice from behind.

 

 

“….”

 

 

Turning around, the main character was the red-haired Princess, Lyudmila.

She walked closer, revealing a hostility that she had never shown before.

 

 

“What on earth is going on here?”

 

She frowned deeply and looked around, building up her anger.

Knights, soldiers, and even unrelated servants were all tragically dead, and the surviving female knight and maid were clinging to each other, having tearful sex.

 

Blood was flowing from their lower bodies, making it impossible to watch.

 

 

“Veronica, take care of those people.”

“Yes.”

 

Veronica, who also had a hardened face, immediately set out, separated the two women, and protected the woman who had been dragged here and beaten up, bringing a total of three people to where the knights were.

 

 

Seo-hyun, who had been watching quietly, turned her body completely towards the Princess.

 

 

“Aren’t you Princess-nim? What brings you here?”

“What brings me here? Can you say that after seeing this sight? I heard you clashed with the security forces and soldiers even before coming here?”

 

 

Questions fired along with anger.

Seo-hyun nodded, saying, “Ah~.”

 

 

“I couldn’t help it.”

“You…couldn’t help it?”

 

Seo-hyun shrugged her shoulders with an expression that seemed to say, ‘Why are you making such a fuss over such a trivial matter?’

 

 

“They were blocking me from carrying out justice. Of course, I know that they were doing their job. But originally, when enforcing justice, there are innocent victims and evil victims. You should know that if you’re a knight, right?”

 

Ulkeok.

 

 

Lyudmila, Veronica, and the knights here almost drew their swords and rushed at her in an instant.

Seo-hyun’s words were stimulating them to that extent.

 

 

Still, they suppressed their anger as much as possible because she was Yu-eun’s person.

 

 

“The inn…? What about the massacre there? Did those people block you too?”

“Ah, that.”

 

 

Seo-hyun raised her hand and pointed to a woman.

It was one of the women Veronica had protected earlier.

 

 

“That bitch didn’t understand the situation and didn’t cooperate, so I needed to fix that.”

“So you indiscriminately killed the people at the inn?”

“That’s right. But don’t worry. There were no beautiful women, and they were all unnecessary people anyway.”

 

 

Kkadeuk.

 

 

Lyudmila gritted her teeth.

What kind of human is this? Unnecessary?

After killing so many people, she says, ‘Don’t worry, they were all unnecessary people.’

 

 

“Okay…then just one more thing…the people in this yard…did you kill these people because they were unnecessary too?”

 

Even as the anger of the knights, including over a hundred people, was clearly conveyed, Seo-hyun leisurely looked around.

 

 

“They were unnecessary, but…they committed a greater crime than that. I couldn’t let them live.”

“A greater crime?”

“Ah. I have something to say to Princess-nim about this.”

“?”

“I think I told you to manage the nobles well, but something happened in half a day? What are you going to do?”

“…What is this crazy bitch saying.”

 

 

Veronica, who couldn’t stand it any longer, exploded with anger and drew her sword.

The sword she originally used had broken when she faced Seo-hyun earlier, so it was a new sword.

 

 

“Even if you’re Yu-eun-gong’s person, I can’t forgive you anymore!!”

“Forgive…?”

 

 

Seo-hyun turned her head and looked at Veronica.

 

“What are you going to do if you don’t forgive me?”

 

And provocation.

It was a tone that could only explode with annoyance and anger upon hearing it.

It felt like she was saying, ‘What are you going to do about it?’

 

 

Veronica was about to rush at her immediately.

If the Princess hadn’t stopped her.

 

 

“Step back, Veronica.”

“Princess-nim!”

“Now.”

“Keuek….”

 

Veronica stepped back, biting her lip tightly in anger.

Even so, she glared at Seo-hyun as if she would kill her.

 

 

“What exactly are you?”

 

 

The Princess took a few steps forward.

Each time, the knights moved their feet, emitting tension and anger.

 

 

“What’s with all the fuss here? Even your master wasn’t this bad.”

“You’re not asking?”

 

Completely irrelevant.

She’s not even listening to the Princess’s words.

 

 

“What?”

“Why I’m here.”

“Ha….”

 

She’s truly an amazing human being.

 

 

Seo-hyun continued, shifting her gaze here and there as if she didn’t care about her expression.

 

 

“The group trying to defy Master-nim, and the humans helping that group…it’s a truly disgusting sight. I can’t stand it. Those things. If they had pretty faces, I could overlook it as a beauty’s tantrum and later train them, but these things aren’t even that. So I have no choice but to kill them all, right? Those nobles inside too.”

 

 

Each word she said provoked anger.

Eventually, the Princess, who had been holding back as much as possible, exploded.

 

 

Ssaak!

 

 

“You’re really going wild. Does Yu-eun that bastard know? That you’re running around like this.”

 

The sound of the slap echoed through the yard.

 

 

Seo-hyun stroked the cheek she had been hit on and looked at the Princess.

Unlike the somewhat gentle and friendly(?) expression she had been maintaining until now, her face was cold and emotionless.

 

 

“Two slaps…I warned you earlier, right? The only reason you haven’t been hit by me is because you’re a candidate to be Master-nim’s wife.”

“Shut up, you goddamn biㅡ,”

“You shouldn’t tell me to shut up. You’re happy when I’m talking. Not talking means you’re getting hit.”

 

Veronica and the knights drew their swords and surrounded her at the sight of Seo-hyun revealing her true nature and growling.

 

 

 

 

 

A moment of crisis.

In that tense situation, something suddenly cut through the air and crashed between the two women.
