[237] Hedor (3)
“I overheard the story. “You are a friend of the Lord of the Red Magic Tower, right?”
“That’s right.”
Although his left arm was cut off, Chugeol was cheerful. It’s been a few years since his arm was cut off, so he’s probably gotten used to being a one-armed person.
Chu Geol extended his right hand and asked Lee Seong-min to shake his hand.
“i look forward to. “We haven’t set off to subjugate them yet, so I hope we can become a lot of friends by then.”
“Please take care of me too.”
Since Chwi-geol did not show a sharp attitude, Lee Seong-min also smiled and held hands with Chwi-geol.
After shaking hands, Chugeol passed Lee Seong-min and went downstairs.
Seongmin Lee glanced at the back of the drunk girl going down and went up to his room.
The room was not very spacious but was clean. Since he didn’t have anything to pack, Lee Seong-min stood next to the window and looked down.
The spacious backyard was clearly visible. In the backyard, men wearing military uniforms from the Mo Yong family were swinging their swords in the same motion.
‘You’re a successful candidate.’
If I think about it, I have never had a proper medical examination before. I have heard warnings about the formation method several times.
A warning that no matter how much you are a transcendental master, you will struggle if you go up against an excellent strategy.
Lee Seong-min, who was looking down at Jinbeop, laid down on the bed without observing any more.
Even if his identity was revealed, Lee Seong-min had no intention of colliding with the Mo Yong family.
The most ideal thing is for everything to end without the identity being revealed.
Even if I got caught, I planned to get away without colliding.
Of course, I am not overconfident that everything will work out as expected.
The windows made a rattling sound thanks to the strong snow wind. Amidst all the noise, Lee Seong-min spent time sitting still and meditating.
As the sun was setting, someone knocked on the door. Seongmin Lee opened his closed eyes and stood up.
“yes.”
A boy with a young face stood beyond the open door.
Seongmin Lee felt that the boy’s face was somehow familiar.
“who are you?”
“My name is Mo Yong-chan.”
He is the youngest son of Mo Yong Sega. Seongmin Lee slightly nodded his head and cried.
“What’s going on?”
“It’s almost dinner time, so I came to ask if you’ve eaten.”
“I haven’t done it yet… … ?”
“The head of the house asked if we would like to eat together.”
Lee Seong-min tilted his head at those words. Let’s eat together should be a sign of goodwill.
Inviting someone to a meal when it’s their first meeting… … Does this mean that you want to build closer relationships in the future? How should we accept this?
Seongmin Lee stared at Yongchan Mo’s face.
He personally sent his beloved son.
Lee Seong-min thought for a moment and nodded his head. It would be rude to refuse this blatant favor.
“All right.”
Since there was nothing to prepare, Lee Seong-min closed the door and left. Although Mo Yong-chan has not yet reached the level of Chojeongjeong, his qualifications are outstanding and he will receive full support as a minor member of the Moyong family, so it felt like he would naturally enter Chojeongjeong in his twenties.
‘Mo Yong Seo-jin’s younger brother.’
I don’t have a special impression on Mo Yong Seo-jin. However, because Namgoong Hee-won was in love with Mo Yong Seo-jin. And the whole point is that she was falsely accused.
Mo Yong-chan looked a lot like Mo Yong Seo-jin’s face in his memories.
Moyong Daeun, the owner of the Moyong family, has only two children, Moyong Seojin and Moyongchan.
Now that Mo Yong Seo-jin is dead, all that remains is Mo Yong-chan. The fact that he brought his only son into a potentially dangerous subjugation war means that this subjugation war does not seem that dangerous in the eyes of Moyong Sega.
Mo Yong-chan took Lee Seong-min to a restaurant not far from the inn. Mo Yongchan entered the restaurant and climbed the stairs.
“Didn’t you think it was rude?”
Daeun Mo, who was sitting across the table, stood up and asked. At those words, Lee Seong-min shook his head.
“I never thought about that.”
“Then you are lucky. Hedor. “It’s been a long time since I came to this city, but I always eat at this restaurant every time I come to this city.”
Moyongdaeun said with a kind smile.
“The food tastes pretty good. “My daughter also really liked the food here.”
“… … “It was a sad thing.”
“It’s okay. “It’s been a few years already.”
Daeun Mo Yong said that and shook his head. Even as he said that, he was still wearing black clothes. He wore black clothes like mourning clothes.
Mo Yong-chan sat next to Mo Yong-daeun, and Lee Seong-min sat across from him as Moyong Dae-un recommended.
“thank you for the invitation.”
“You can even call it an invitation.”
Mo Yong Dae-un laughed heartily at Lee Seong-min’s words.
“I simply called you because I needed a companion.”
I don’t think it means it literally. As for companions, wouldn’t there be plenty of them, even excluding Lee Seong-min?
Seongmin Lee looked around. The warriors of the Moyong family were eating. The other warriors of the Murim Alliance, including Chwigeol, are nowhere to be seen.
‘What do you want?’
The food came out. It wasn’t fancy, but it was neat food. The meal has begun. Although he called because he needed a companion, Mo Yong Dae-un did not talk to Lee Seong-min while eating.
“This is it.”
During the meal, Daeun Moyong burst out laughing.
“Now that I think about it, I didn’t even ask your name.”
“My name is Lee Min-cheol.”

Seongmin Lee said the pseudonym he had thought of in advance. At those words, Daeun Mo Yong was silent for a moment. It seemed like he was thinking about the name Lee Min-cheol.
“This is a name I’ve never heard before.”
“Because I didn’t do anything that would cause rumors.”
“If you were a master of that level of skill, it would have been impossible not to spread rumors, right?”
“I didn’t have great talent, so I spent most of my time training in martial arts. “Then, by chance, I met Scarlett and we became friends.”
“The talent is not great… … To be honest, I don’t really believe that. “How old are you?”
“I’m twenty-seven now.”
“If you have become a top expert at that age, you are definitely not lacking in talent. “Aren’t there a lot of people who can’t reach the peak even if they train their martial arts all their lives?”
Moyongdaeun laughed and said.
“I’ll be honest. “I am very interested in you, and I am also greedy.”
“greed… … “You mean?”
“If I… … If only I had another daughter. “So much so that she let me marry you.”
Lee Seong-min was worried about what expression to make at those words.
“But unfortunately I don’t have a daughter. “There is only one son left.”
“… … hmm. “I have no intention of getting married yet.”
Wijihoyeon will try to kill you.
“That means you are a greedy talent. Since I don’t have a clan to belong to, I become even more greedy. There are quite a few extreme experts in this world, but isn’t that enough to be ignored? “Especially since you’re still in your twenties, the possibilities are endless.”
“Thank you for your high opinion.”
“I’m just telling the truth. That’s why I’m greedy. “Do you have any intention of becoming a gourmet of the Mo Yong family?”
Daeun Moyong asked vaguely. At those words, Lee Seong-min hesitated for a moment and then shook his head.
“I have no intention of settling down somewhere yet.”
“It’s a shame… … I’m so sorry. If you change your mind, please visit Moyong’s family. “I will treat you with the best treatment.”
Daeun Moyong was sincere when he said that.
“Or, even though they are not my blood, there are many girls with the Moyong clan within the Moyong family. “There are many children with outstanding looks.”
“it’s okay.”
“haha! Isn’t this rejection too harsh? Still, let me at least say something. “You never know, there might be one among the children of the Mo Yong family who might sympathize with you.”
“… … “If I get a chance later, I will visit Moyong’s family.”
Since it seemed unlikely that Grandmaster Moyong would change his stance if things continued like this, Seongmin Lee took a step back and accepted Grandmaster Moyong’s words.
Then Moyongdaeun smiled joyfully.
After finishing the meal, Lee Seong-min left the restaurant with Mo Yong-chan.
He said there was no need to take him because there was an inn right across the street, but Mo Yong Dae-un sent his son to see Lee Seong-min off.
In its own way, it may be an attempt to explicitly express favor and friendship.
“You don’t have to think deeply about the matriarch’s words.”
When we left the restaurant, Mo Yong-chan said. Seongmin Lee smiled bitterly and nodded his head.
“You enjoy practical jokes.”
“You probably didn’t say it as a joke, but… … The head of the family has changed a lot since my sister’s death. “He always wears black clothes and has a forced smile.”
Because he was his biological father before he was the head of the family, Mo Yongchan had a bitter expression.
It was an expression that was not very suitable for someone at the age of fifteen.
“Gongzi Mo Yong, why did you come here?”
“yes?”
When asked about something he was curious about, Mo Yong-chan opened his eyes and looked at Lee Seong-min.
“This subjugation war. I heard that it might be quite dangerous… … .”
“I have the martial arts to protect myself.”
Mo Yong-chan answered Lee Seong-min’s words with a straight face. It seemed like I misunderstood what Seongmin Lee said.
Although he was considered mature for his age, the way he built up his pride right away made him feel like he was 15. Seongmin Lee shook his head.
“I’m not saying that Confucius Mo Yong’s skills are lacking. However, it might be dangerous. There was also a tragedy during the reign of Mo Yong-seo-jin and Zhuge Confucius.”
“… … But that doesn’t mean the ghost is here, does it? “If Guichang appears in front of me, I will kill him.”
[I guess so.]
Heoju chuckled.
“And this subjugation battle won’t be that dangerous. Since there are so many people gathered, it would be easy to kill a warlock.”
“… … Is that so?”
As Mo Yong-chan added, Lee Seong-min nodded his head slightly. They are looking down on Kim Jong-hyun.
Well, it might just look funny. The forces gathered for subjugation are five, including the magic corps, the Murim Alliance, the Moyong family, the church, and mercenaries.
Hundreds of people have already gathered in this village to catch Kim Jong-hyun.
The distance from the restaurant to the inn is short. That short distance. Before arriving at the inn, Lee Seong-min stopped walking.
Mo Yong-chan looked at Lee Seong-min, who suddenly stopped walking, with a puzzled look on his face. Seongmin Lee stared into the dark alley without saying anything.
“What’s going on?”
Mo Yongchan asked, tilting his head. Seongmin Lee said while staring at the alley.
“It’s not like we’re having such a big story. Why are you eavesdropping?”
At those words, a coughing sound was heard from across the alley. It was a woman’s voice.
The one who walked out of the darkness was Dang Ah-hee, dressed in tight black clothes.
Dokjeop, the daughter of the Tang family head. Mo Yong-chan looked at Dang A-hee with a surprised expression. This is because, with his skills, he could not figure out that Dang Ah-hee was hiding.
“I just went out for a walk at night.”
“You take a walk at night in a strange way. “Why don’t you say that you were practicing the art of stealth?”
“He was also practicing stealth techniques.”
Dang Ah-hee said with a shameless smile in response to Lee Seong-min’s mocking words. Mo Yongchan looked at me with a straight face and took a step forward.
“Why were you eavesdropping?”
“It wasn’t something you could say you overheard, right? And what did she overhear when she spoke clearly?”
“that… … .”
“I guess Mo Yong-se’s business is over?”
Dang Ah-hee took her gaze away from Mo Yong-chan and looked at Lee Seong-min. She smiled seductively and glanced at Lee Sung-min.
“It looks like you’ve already eaten, and in fact, I’ve already eaten too. Because the night air is nice… … .”
Snowflakes were mixed with the chilly northern wind.
“how is it? At least have a drink. “I happen to have some good alcohol.”
“ah.”
A good drink was something that came to mind. In the past, when I was collecting Heoju’s treasures, I remembered that I had packed a gourd that was said to produce infinite amounts of America. When he remembered that, Heoju burst into a fit and cried out.
[That’s right, gourd! You bastard, why don’t you ever use that?!]
‘You didn’t have time to drink.’
[Alcohol is something you drink even when you have free time, you bastard!]
‘Do I have to get that kind of criticism just because I didn’t drink?’
[Shut up and try that drink tonight. Let me taste some alcohol too!]
Seongmin Lee shook his head, ignoring Heoju’s voice fluttering in his head.
“I have no desire to drink alcohol.”
“oh… … “I guess you don’t enjoy drinking that much, do you?”
“yes.”
Why is there a needless iron wall? Dang Ah-hee frowned and looked at Lee Seong-min.
“But how about having a drink? “It’s our first time meeting, so let’s be friendly.”
“I don’t like to become friends over alcohol.”
“Since you’re saying this, why don’t you just hang out?”
“sorry.”
Seongmin Lee shook his head and refused. At those words, Dang Ah-hee’s shoulders trembled.
“… … “Then let’s have some tea.”
“I’m not thirsty… … .”
“You’re not saying that because you don’t know what I want to say, are you?”
“I know. “Aren’t you saying you want to become friends with me?”
“I know, but why are you doing this?”
“I don’t know why you want to be friends with me.”
“Because I’m interested.”
“To me? Or that I am an unaffiliated expert?”
When Lee Seong-min asked with a smile, Dang A-hee was speechless.
