Is it because there was a lot to do? Sayun was quite happy, and Hongryeon also enjoyed the festival to the fullest.

Me too. I enjoyed it in my own way.

“Mister!! Eat this!”

“Oh my. I think this will suit you well.”

While being led around by Hongryeon and Sayoon, they try on various things and eat them.

After enjoying the festival until late at night, I was sitting at a stall drinking with Hongryeon when I saw Sayun starting to doze off.

“You look tired.”

“That’s right.”

No matter how strong his internal skills were, Sayoon seemed quite calm as he returned to the familiar Island Hwaseong and with Hongryeon, a trustworthy expert, by his side.

I poured the last of my drink into my mouth after seeing Sayoon swaying next to Hongryeon, leaning on her.

“Let’s go back soon.”

“Hehe. is it so. ruler. Sayoon. Let’s wake up.”

“Ugh… yes…”

Sayoon said in a sleepy voice. Is there still some alcohol left in me?

” Drive away the intoxication with inner energy.”

“No. Is that really necessary? Because it’s important to sleep well…”

I held out my hand to Sayoon. Hongryeon, who was lightly carrying her limp body on her back, looked at me as if she was worried.

“Are you okay?”

“It’s okay.”

I stood up, carrying Sayun on my back. It’s like a feather! It wasn’t that heavy, but I didn’t think it was that heavy.

Since I have been training steadily and taking health-boosting medicine, carrying a girl and going home is not an easy task.

“Uuuu…”

Even though Sayoon was chomping at the bit, he seemed quite comfortable riding on my back. He hugged my neck tightly with both arms and began to faintly talk in his sleep.

“Uncle… Ugh…”

“This guy…”

“Haha. Don’t criticize me too much. Because I’m really fine.”

Is it just okay?

Because I, and we, felt nothing but satisfaction from helping Sayun.

“Still, Sayun looks very comfortable.”

In the end, Hongryeon, who was unable to wake Sayun, slightly pouted her lips, but there was warmth in her gaze.

“Because he always missed you.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. You don’t know, do you? Hehehe.”

Hongryeon slowly stroked Sayun’s gray hair and walked one step ahead. She, who had been walking playfully holding her back, turned slightly.

“I always slept holding the letters you sent me, and whenever I had free time, I read those letters and laughed happily.”

“I see.”

“Perhaps you are the person that Sayoon admires.”

“It’s longing. I thought the person Sayun admired was either Sword Saint or you.”

“Hehe. Of course it is. But I think those feelings and my feelings toward you are a little different.”

“Different? Which part?”

“It’s a bit difficult to explain. You know that Sayoon is an orphan, right? That’s why she was quite jealous of her family.”

Hongryeon grinned and poked Sayun on the cheek. He frowns slightly, probably because he’s tickled, and begins to bite his mouth.

Perhaps because it was cute, Hongryeon burst into laughter.

“Anyway, I think Sayoon was able to come this far because of you. No.”

The hand that was touching Sayun’s cheek moved to my cheek. The soft hand that was poking and caressing my cheek moved from my cheek to my chin, from my chin to my neck, and went further down to gently rest on my chest.

“It’s not just Sayun. Me, Master, and other sisters. I think I was able to come this far because of you.”

“This is too much praise.”

“Oh my? I actually think it’s not enough. It’s not just because of the Sanghyeolblood Order… but because we can only think about martial arts because of the reassurance of having an uncle like us behind us, and the stability of having a great sponsor like Yuwol supporting us.”

“If you say that, I have nothing to say. Thank you to the fullest.”

“Ahaha! It will happen. iced coffee. As a great disciple of Hong Seong-moon, how should I repay this favor?”

Hongryeon came closer to me, tiptoed up, and gently placed her lips on my cheek.

I heard a clicking sound and felt something soft touch my cheek.

“After all, you have no choice but to repay with your body, right?”

This is truly an ambiguous expression.

Use your body, that is, martial arts, to repay.

Or pay it the other way.

I looked at Hongryeon and she licked her lips once and stepped back.

“Of course, I want to pay it back now, but…”

Before I knew it, I arrived near the back garden and saw Geomseong and Chaejin standing at the entrance of the back garden. Hongryeon, seeing their eyes turned in this direction, smiled seductively again and blinked one eye.

“Because those two can’t just be alone. Are you looking forward to it? ah. And.”

Hongryeon quietly approached me and whispered in my ear again.

“If you can’t stand it, it’s okay to say it secretly. Because you are welcome anytime.”

I calmly looked at Hongryeon, who spoke seductive words in a sweet voice.

“Well… if you’re going to be embarrassed, why don’t you refrain from saying such things?”

Although she spoke in a confident and seductive way, Hongryeon’s face was bright red. Just like her hair. Hongryeon, whose ears and neck were red, slightly shook her eyes at my words, but she was truly proud.

“Ah, aren’t you embarrassed?! You’re so confident?!”

“Keuhum. Anyway, I understand. If I feel like I can’t stand it, I’ll tell you.”

Hongryeon grinned as if she was finally satisfied, and I nodded to her.

“Why is Sayun being carried on her back?”

“He seemed tired.”

“Well. It was enough to relieve my tension.”

Geomseong and Chaejin, who were watching me and Hongryeon talking, approached. She looked at Hongryeon blankly, then pointed at Sayun and asked, and Hongryeon responded indifferently.

“Then Sayun…”

“Ah. I’ll take you with me. Chaejin. You can help too.”

Hongryeon lightly lifted the packages in her hands. Since Hongryeon has to return to Hongseongmun anyway, this means that he will also take them with him.

Chaejin came out and looked at Sayun for a moment, then leisurely put Sayun on her back.

“See you tomorrow then~!”

“I will come down around evening.”

The three leave, leaving only Geomseong behind. I glanced at Geomsung, and she avoided my gaze.

“It wasn’t like that. Chae, I didn’t ask Chaejin to tell you that I would be with you today and tomorrow. And…”

“I didn’t say anything.”

“……..”

I looked at Geomseong and her face quickly turned into an expressionless face.

But I couldn’t hide my red ears.

The next day came. The festival ended yesterday, but that didn’t mean the number of people decreased.

Especially since the guesthouse was open from today, there were quite a lot of people around the guesthouse.

“I get to eat your master’s cooking again!”

“Anyway, the guest room has become wider and more luxurious.”

“Isn’t this the same as the main building of Cheonghoeru?”

I thought about that and made it big. I’m buying other people’s land around here as much as I can on my land.

I thought it might be too big to build, but since it is the only guesthouse in Seomhwaseong Fortress, I thought it should be at least as big as this.

“But the device for the hot spring is…”

“Ah. There it is. Even so, Chaejin and I put in some effort yesterday.”

As soon as I arrived, I was busy meeting Seongju and enjoying the festival, so I couldn’t see him, so I thought I would take this opportunity to see him, so I left the command to Yohwan and headed to the back of the guest house.

There were several layers of barriers behind the guesthouse. Because it is such an important place.

The Sword Master took me through the living gate and let me into the barrier, and pointed to the red orb in the center.

“They said I need to put some energy into it. The redder it is, the better it is, so I told you to check it by looking at it.”

“It’s okay now. How effective is that?”

“About a month?”

Experts at the level of Geomseong and Chaejin infuse their skills and spend a month. It would definitely be difficult to handle if it weren’t for those three.

“We look forward to your continued support.”

“Hmm. Don’t worry.”

She spoke confidently and muttered in a low voice.

“As a hostess, it is a natural thing to do.”

If you’re going to say something like that, I wish you were a little more confident. I smiled at her as she wiggled her fingers and spoke with a red face.

“Why are you smiling?”

“I laughed because it was cute. ruler. Then we go out too. It’s been a while since I tried Yohwan’s cuisine and had to check the room…”

Also, I have to move my luggage back from the sponsorship there.

Thanks to the busy work of the servants, me, and Geomseong, the move was easily completed.

After re-decorating the office on the fourth floor of the guest house and sitting down, I asked about the connection.

“By the way, are you going out together today?”

“You promised, so you should do it, right?”

Seeing that there were many customers, Geomseong said with concern. But that only lasts for a moment. When I spoke with a smile, her expression noticeably brightened.

“Guest guest!!”

If it hadn’t been for Jeom Soi, who suddenly opened the door and came in, that expression would have stayed that way.

I saw Jeomsoy, and he came up in a hurry, out of breath, and spoke in a tone full of embarrassment.

“So, a guest has arrived!”

It’s something special when guests come. Just as relief appeared on Geomseong’s face, he told a story that surprised even me.

“The head of the Namgung family has arrived!”

uh?

Namgung-cheon, the king of thunder and swords?

Why that guy?

One of the ten great powers in the world, such as Geomseong.

I was taken aback when I heard that Namgung Cheon, the king of thunder and swords and the head of the Namgung family, had come.

“Ah.”

Now that I think about it, the guy said he wanted to take a look.

I gently held Geomseong’s hand.

“It won’t be a big deal, so don’t worry. Since this is a sudden visit, I hope you will understand for at least a day.”

“…Is that really what that old man is like?”

I went downstairs, soothing the Sword Saint.

There were many people in the guest room on the first floor, but everyone was silent and staring to one side.

A large old man to whom the term “Seonpungdogol” aptly fits.

The one I saw in the bright moon of heaven.

It was Namgung Cheon, the head of the Namgung family and the actual owner.

“Hmm… Nice to meet you. It’s called Namgungcheon.”

“Nice to meet you. It’s June.”

I greeted his greeting with a light greeting. Nangong Cheon twitched his pure white eyebrows and briefly glanced at the Sword Saint standing behind me, then returned them to me.

“Can you sell your time to me today?”

Namgungcheon’s voice was hard and full of solemnity.

I said with a smile, as if my voice contained the power of an emperor who would not tolerate rejection.

“I am truly sorry to the person who came a long way to visit me. I can’t do it today because I have a prior appointment.”

Whether it’s the power of a king or refusing to take no for an answer. I can’t change my schedule at will.

“This is a promise that must take priority over Namgungcheon?”

The old man, Namgungcheon, looked at me as if I was dumbfounded.

“Who is this promise?”

I held out the Sword Saint that was hiding behind me, and as he stared at her, he spoke calmly.

“Go quickly. If that little thing goes crazy, I’ll be in trouble too.”

“Ah. Yes.”

I went outside with Geomseong. Then he looked at her and asked.

“Apprentice… Let’s say that to my father-in-law. It doesn’t seem like the relationship between Hong Seong-moon and the Namgung family is that bad… What on earth did you do to that person?”

Geomseong quietly avoided my gaze.

“Well, at that time I was a bit hot-headed and couldn’t see my surroundings…”

“Hmm… Well, as long as you don’t kill someone from the Namgung family, that’s fine.”

“……”

“….You didn’t kill him, right?”

“Oh, I didn’t kill him. Just a little. I just hit him a few times.”

“…That’s okay.”

About one or two people…

“…And I hit a lot of people… Don’t look at me like that…”

Well, it could be because it is ‘common sense’ for martial people to fight if they are in trouble.

I looked at Geomseong, who was looking at me with concern, and held her hand, and only then did she smile as if relieved.
