episode_0225

I looked around the messy office. There were parts of the building that were destroyed due to the fight between Sayoon and the girl, but the guest room downstairs didn’t look all that healthy either.

“Hmm… Hmm…”

And what was most heartbreaking was that Sayun kept crying.

While stroking her head, I glanced toward the safe. The safe I bought last time was broken, and the things inside were scattered everywhere.

Even though I said yes, Sayoon still looked confused.

Faces filled with tears, questions, joy, and confusion.

I stroked Sayoon’s head.

It’s okay to come this far and say no.

And now that we’ve caught all five of the Iron Blood Order’s masters, there’s no need to hide anything.

So I said yes, and Sayoon had no intention of leaving me.

“Uncle… Ugh… Uncle…”

Not knowing what to say, Sayun hugged me tightly and cried sadly.

I patted her on the back.

“It’s okay. are you okay. Because it’s all over now.”

“Woooo… Black. Mister… Mister…!”

Sayoon said softly while rubbing her face against my chest.

“I really… missed you…”

“…What are you doing?”

I raised my head at the voice I heard at that time. It was Chaejin.

Me sitting on the floor.

Sayoon hugs me from above and has no intention of letting go.

and.

The body next to him.

Chaejin looked at us with a confused expression and shook his head.

“Phew. First of all, Sayoon. I don’t know what happened, but I got away from Yuwol…”

“Ugh…”

Sayoon held my clothes tightly and did not let me go. That was when Chaejin smiled brightly at her and tried to give strength to her hand.

“Ah, lady!!”

Yuan and Yang Juhui came up here and were shocked to see the girl wearing red clothes. Yuan, who was looking at the girl’s corpse with Sayun’s sword stuck in it, looked in my direction and asked.

“Do, how on earth did this happen?!”

“Um…”

I looked at her and said.

“The story will be long.”

In my now chaotic office, I calmly explained. The young lady from the enemy family was a subordinate of the Iron Blood Emperor.

The Iron Blood Emperor even took on the role of attracting Sayun’s attention in order to attack me.

The expressions on the two’s faces hardened as they heard everything.

“…No way our enemy…”

“Well. But as far as I know, the price itself is not the problem. And that girl… I don’t even know if she’s real or not.”

“…That’s our lady.”

“Then I guess I’ll have to research the rest. How did he end up joining hands with the Iron Blood Emperor? Are there any other collaborators? Of course, we can’t say that you are not the target of this.”

It must have been quite a shock to learn that the young lady they had been serving until now was a member of the Iron Blood Legion, which was trying to put the world in danger.

While I was watching them sitting helplessly, speechless, I looked outside.

From afar, I could see warriors from the Murim Alliance running towards me. It looks like you’ve killed Gui Yeonsan’s subordinates.

I watched them and sighed.

“Anyway, everything is over. By the way, the outside is…”

It was then. The sky, which had been dyed black, can be seen gradually disappearing. It was proof that Dool had been caught.

I said after watching it.

“Looks like it’s over there too.”

“Teacher Yu!!”

The warriors of the Murim Alliance come up from below. They looked at the half-destroyed office in confusion and asked me.

“How on earth did this happen?”

I can’t believe I have to tell the same story twice.

But since you’re probably curious, I can’t help but explain the situation.

I explained it to them, and they nodded with sad faces and headed towards the Murim Alliance with the members of the enemy family.

Whether they knew it or not, we have to investigate.

Perhaps Jeokga will also become a target of investigation by the Murim Alliance.

But, well, that part is none of my part-time business.

What’s important is that we captured all of the Iron Blood Order.

Of course, when you catch the Iron Bloods, you say, ‘Wow! ‘It’s over now!’ It couldn’t be said.

It was true that, in addition to the Iron Bloods, the enemies of other main characters were trying to put the empire in crisis.

Also, demons remain, and they have not completely disappeared.

But that wasn’t a problem.

Because I put the most important things away.

I saw them running from afar.

They were Hongseongmundo. Although they were clearly injured or exhausted, they were full of hope.

okay. It’s hope.

Now that they have defeated Hong Seong-moon’s greatest enemy, the Iron Blood Order, all that is left for them is hope to face the future.

I looked at Sayoon, who was holding onto the hem of my clothes tightly and had no intention of letting go.

“It seems like there are so many things you want to ask me.”

Nod.

Sayoon, who didn’t cry like before, but couldn’t even look at me properly, nodded with a red face, hesitated and spoke softly.

“There are so many.”

“I guess so. But let’s leave that aside. I don’t even feel like I’ve figured out what to say.”

“No…”

“I will not run away or hide. And I’ll answer all your questions. Wouldn’t it be better to remain calm though? Because you don’t want to get excited and make mistakes.”

Sayoon hesitated and nodded slightly. It seemed like she knew she was pretty excited too.

It’s good to talk.

I stroked her head. As the cozy, warm hair wrapped around her fingers, Sayun gently closed her eyes.

As I smiled at her, who happily accepted my touch, I heard an urgent voice from behind.

“…No. How did this happen?”

“What’s going on?!”

It seems that Geomseong and Hongryeon were confused by the fact that they had a good fight outside and when they came back, the guesthouse was completely smashed.

I looked at them and started the same story again.

Although I had to do it three times, it wasn’t particularly burdensome.

“…so.”

Geomsung looked at me with a slight frown.

“You did this because you expected that the Iron Blood Agent would target you?”

“Yes.”

“How can you be so reckless?!”

Geomseong looked quite angry. But sometimes you have to do something reckless.

“If that person tried to kidnap you without using the Sleeping Soul Dharma technique…”

“Because there is a fire department. Also, it would have been difficult to get me out of here with the level of the Iron Blood Agent. And…”

I spoke leisurely to Geomseong and Hongryeon, who were giggling.

“It worked out well, right?”

“That’s the result theory.”

“The result is important.”

“Even though the guest cup was smashed like this as a result?”

All you have to do is rebuild the guesthouse. It’s not that I don’t have money.

“No, not that kind of problem… Phew. That’s it. I’m just happy that you’re safe. really. Do you know how surprised I was when I saw the condition of the guesthouse from afar?”

Geomseong gently held my hand. Then he looked at me with moist eyes and smiled slightly.

“But don’t worry, that won’t happen from now on. I am there.”

“…That teacher? Let go and talk, right?”

“That’s right.”

Geomseong frowned slightly when he heard the voices of the two people behind him. But he just slowly let go.

“Then, let’s talk again once things are somewhat resolved.”

“Hmm. Let’s do that. By the way, you must have worked hard. Why don’t you go back and rest instead of staying here?”

Like the Sword Saint, Hongryeon must also be quite tired. It would be better to take a break and then continue with the next story.

They both stared at me and then stood up. And I called Sayun, who had no intention of leaving my side.

“Let’s sleep. You too, come here.”

“Okay. Because I need some rest in June too.”

“…Yes.”

Only after talking to Geomseong and Hongryeon did Sayun finally let me go.

But her eyes were still fixed on me.

“We can see each other again, right? Yes?”

“Of course.”

By any chance, should I run away? It seemed like he was worried that he might disappear. Sayoon kept glancing at me and left, and I sat on the long chair in the office and asked the question.

“…So. What do you plan to do now?”

well…

for now.

“Shouldn’t we make the guest cup again from the beginning?”

-thud!!

The eaves of the second floor, which were tilted, fall down. I glanced in that direction and scratched my cheek.

“Since Sojeo Chae has no place to stay, she returns to Munwoljeong…”

“Why is there no place to stay?”

Chaejin took a step closer to me.

Then he gently grabs my hand and slowly brings it towards his face.

She put my hand to her cheek and slowly rubbed it, smiling as if she were melting.

“By your side is where I belong.”

“Uh. Um.”

“…and I have something to say.”

“But there is no place to stay.”

“There is sponsorship, right? support. We can stay there together for a while.”

The patrons staying in Jeokga were destroyed here and there by Gwi Yeonsan’s attack, but the remaining patrons were unharmed as they had not suffered any major attacks.

She said, clasping her hand with mine.

“Because we will continue to be together from now on.”

As she said, the office was moved to sponsorship. After moving all the intact items and paying compensation to the guests staying at the guesthouse, it was decided to temporarily suspend the guesthouse’s operations.

The servants and Jeomsoyi who worked in the guesthouse were disappointed, but how can they do business now that all this has happened?

I gave long-term vacation leave to only a few people who would stay with the sponsor. Of course, with pay.

“Do you have a lot of money?”

Yohwan said it as if it was absurd, but what could he do? These are the kids who have worked hard with me so far, so I can’t just throw them away.

And they are the ones who will have to work again when the guest cup is rebuilt.

“Then I’ll use that room.”

There were a total of three rooms in the back garden. When Yohwan entered one of them, I headed to the garden.

Should we first think about what we need to do?

As I was sitting on a bench in the garden, thinking about what to do next, I tried to turn my head when I felt a sign of presence behind me.

But before that, long arms hug me from behind.

A nice scent that stimulates your nose.

It was Chaejin.

“What are you thinking like that?”

If it had a tail, it would be swaying gently. Chaejin smiled kindly, put her head on my shoulder, and asked in her characteristic bright tone.

“Well. What should I do next?”

“Things to do in the future…”

Chaejin thought for a moment, brought her face close enough to feel his breath, and then asked.

“…Like marriage?”

I glanced at her. I thought as I faced the anticipation in those eyes.

There is that too.
