◈ Episode 75 So, you should have behaved well. (2)
The day after Kim Joo-hyuk f*cked Seol Yeon-hwa.
The media was in an uproar.
[The head of the Snow family loses all power to the Constellation and is confirmed to be excommunicated]
[‘The King of the Deep in the Snow’ received the punishment it deserved.]
[Seol Yeon-hwa, what on earth did you do to the constellation to cause such hatred?]
[Snow family official: “We don’t want any more controversy than this.”]
[Is Kim Joo-hyuk behind the Seol family? As of yesterday, a scene of Kim Joo-hyuk entering the funeral was captured -]
That’s because the Xue family was not only the first family of China, but also the family that managed the White Lotus Society, one of the three major academies in the world.
Those words proved that the power of the Seol family was at a very high level.
Therefore, for the media, the fact that the head of the Seol family was excommunicated overnight was bound to become a huge issue, regardless of the perspective from which the situation was viewed.
And overnight, Seolga became the local drum of the media and was being beaten excitedly.
“under.”
Yan Lang burst into laughter after hearing Kim Joo-hyuk tell a story about Snowy Flower.
“… … So, the reason why you looked at me with such disgust and said shit the whole time… … “You said it was to protect your position?”
“that’s right.”
“f*ck… … .”
Yan Lang frowned at Kim Joo-hyuk’s words.
And, to be honest, I really regretted asking Kim Joo-hyuk about Seol Yeon-hwa.
‘… … ‘Don’t ask.’
Yan Lang suddenly thought of the past with such thoughts.
There was a time when people who praised him as a genius started looking at him with a subtle gaze.
Just thinking about it felt like shit.
At least in Yan Lang’s memory, they changed their attitude toward Yan Lang in a short period of time, less than a few days.
As if he had been wearing a mask all this time.
It was the same for my two older sisters who had been practicing the same way all along.
Even his parents, who showed him the path and told him to run towards it, were the same.
‘monster.’
Yan Lang still remembered those words from back then.
No, it wasn’t something I remembered.
It was like a trauma, deeply embedded somewhere in Yan Lang’s mind.
As if it would never go away right before she died.
However, even with such trauma, Yan Lang is really funny, but what if? I had this thought.
Okay, maybe, just maybe, there was some other reason why he treated me like that. Ridiculous expectations.
Of course, the expectations were not great.
Because she knew that that expectation was just a facade created to escape the sudden change in the family members without her knowledge.
But even so, the truth Kim Joo-hyuk told her was shocking to her.
No, it was beyond shocking and absurd.
The fact that her parents had kicked her out for something like that shook her head.
however-
“thank you.”
“what?”
“You did it, right? “She took that woman down from her position as matriarch.”
“Well, right?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s light answer.
-That’s why Yanrang was able to let go of his regrets.
Because I heard about that from Kim Joo-hyuk.
Because she realized that her parents would not hesitate to put her aside for their daughter’s position, she was able to shake off all her lingering feelings about her family.
Because she wasn’t good enough or kind enough to forgive the family that abandoned her and become friends with them again.
‘no.’
What would have happened if Yan Lang had found out about this on his own?
What if a situation arises where you have to forgive the head of the family?
… … Maybe, just maybe, she had forgiven her matriarch.
He clearly thought she was disgusting, but on the other hand, he may have compromised by saying that he had no choice.
She had been at the White Lotus Palace for several years and had learned how dull and shitty feeling loneliness was.
But not now.
“… … “Thank you for pestering me instead.”
Because Kim Joo-hyuk is next to her now.
Yan Lang knew Kim Joo-hyuk well, but at the same time, she had the thought that she did not know him well.
That’s because I was with him for close to two months, but that period of time could be said to be short.
However, even so, there was only one thing that Yan Lang could be sure of about Kim Joo-hyuk.
‘Kim Joo-hyuk is different.’
okay.
Kim Joo-hyuk was different.
Kim Joo-hyuk was different from anyone she had ever met.
It was different from the family members who wore masks and faced each other.
She was different from her two older sisters who were jealous of her and spread bad rumors about her.
He was also different from his parents who had left trauma on him.

Yes, everything was different.
She had never seen Kim Joo-hyuk wearing a pretentious mask in front of anyone.
She had never once seen Kim Joo-hyuk swearing at someone behind their back or being jealous.
More than anything, she realized through this incident that Kim Joo-hyuk is not a person who puts others down for his own sake like his parents.
That’s why Yan Lang was able to trust Kim Joo-hyuk.
“Didn’t I do it for you? “I just did it because I wanted to kill myself.”
What Kim Joo-hyuk said was not a lie.
He was really anxious to destroy Seol Yeon-hwa.
Because what she did was considered disgusting enough by Kim Joo-hyuk’s standards.
Of course, it wasn’t that he didn’t think about Yan Lang at all, but it was only a secondary benefit, and he didn’t do it for her.
“Anyway, thank you.”
“There’s no need to say thank you and not accept it.”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s answer.
At that, Yan Lang smiled faintly and looked at Kim Joo-hyuk.
‘… … ‘What is this sweet expression?’
Kim Joo-hyuk made a strange expression as he saw Yan Lang making an expression that did not suit him, but he soon continued his morning training with her.

Inside the retreat of Ilkyo.
“so-“
The masked man is in a hideaway decorated like a cafe.
“First of all, as a result of the investigation, it is determined that there are a total of four groups of people who have had an affair with Kim Joo-hyuk so far.”
[Tugui nods his head as if asking him to speak.]
He was continuing his report.
“First of all, among the group of evildoers, there are single believers and first-class believers. Among them, Ilshinja seems to have sent separate personnel to assassinate Kim Joo-hyuk.”
The masked man continued talking as he flipped through the paper.
“Also, among the families, it is understood that they have ties to the Ventrick family and the Seol family. In the case of the Ventrick family, I do not know why, but they joined hands with Kim Joo-hyuk, and in the case of the Seol family, the incident occurred only recently, so it is not expected in the future. “I guess we’ll have to wait and see.”
[Tugui looks at you as if that is the end.]
“First of all, based on what we’ve investigated so far… … “After additional investigation, it appears that Baekjang is targeting Kim Joo-hyuk.”
Baekjang (禦葬).
They were a new group that had recently formed among evildoers, and the masked man knew that the leader was a contractor who had previously been quite famous in the contracting industry.
And maybe that’s why they’re targeting Kim Joo-hyuk.
‘Raise the name value… … is it.’
Just to raise the name value.
Without having to think about it too complicatedly, that alone was enough of a reason for them to deal with Kim Joo-hyuk.
If it weren’t for that, there’s no way they would spread the rumor like this that a new evil group called Baekjang is targeting Kim Joo-hyuk.
‘Certainly, it’s attractive.’
For villains, Kim Joo-hyuk was quite attractive prey.
In particular, it was an attractive prey to increase the value of one’s name.
His reputation was extremely high, befitting his age and status as a student.
[Tugwi asks if there are only two confirmed locations.]
While the masked man was thinking, he nodded and responded to the notification window that popped up.
“yes. First of all, the only ones that have confirmed that they have lost with Kim Joo-hyuk right now are the evil groups ‘Ilryujong’ and ‘Ilshinja.’”
The notification window didn’t appear as if he was thinking about his answer for a moment.
The masked man did not ask a question and waited for Tugui to open his mouth.
[Tugui tells you to gather all the people.]
Soon, the masked man nodded as if he understood what he said and answered politely.
“All right. “Then, can I refer to the call as ‘mission’?”
A man asks about the contents of a call that Tugui personally arranged at some point.
To that, Tugui.
[Tugwi twitches the corner of his mouth and tells him to convey the call as ‘kill.’]
I showed that notification window to the masked man.

“Uggggukgeuk-!”
Now, evening is slowly coming to the training room.
There, Soyeon Yoo was doing the bench press, putting all her strength into it.
Choi A-rin was helping her with the bench press at her bedside.
“… … .”
With a strange feeling, I looked at Kim Joo-hyuk and Yan Lang who were continuing their training.
No, to be precise, he was not looking at Kim Joo-hyuk, but at Yan Lang.
If you ask why, Choi Arin actually didn’t know.
However, one thing was certain: strangely enough, Choi Arin felt that something had changed as soon as she entered the training room today.
Of course, no matter how you look at it, Kim Joo-hyuk didn’t really change.
Kim Joo-hyuk is the same as always.
In short, it was Yan Lang who seemed to have changed strangely.
“… … .”
“ugh… … Tiring… … uh… … .”
Of course, if asked how exactly Yan Lang had changed, Choi A-lin could not give a proper answer.
On the outside, Yan Lang was no different from usual.
When Kim Joo-hyuk asks her to do ridiculous training, she pants and curses at him while doing it.
Then, after getting hit, he gets even more angry, and when Kim Joo-hyuk asks him if he won’t do it, he grits his teeth and continues training.
Yes, it looked the same.
however.
“Oh, Lin!? a little… … Hold me… … !!”
Sigh-
It was really a minor difference, but today, the corners of Yan Lang’s mouth were strangely raised, whether when he was angry or when he cursed.
Very minor change.
Even if you look closely, you can see that Yan Lang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but Arin Choi sensitively caught it.
“Yaaah! Choi Arin!!”
“Oh sorry.”
Choi A-rin holds the baton together as if she has finally realized Yoo So-yeon’s screams.
However, as Choi A-rin was holding the bar like that, the strangely raised corners of Yan Lang’s mouth still appeared in her mind.
When Choi A-rin was looking at Yan Lang with a subtle expression.
“Hehe… … Let me die… … .”
“Yes~ I will never die~”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who had completed today’s training with Yan Lang, soon began to prepare to go home to train his magic power.
“Nice to meet you, Kim Joo-hyuk.”
After saying hello to the kids, Kim Joo-hyuk came out of the training center and headed toward the dormitory.
“… … “What are you?”
“I came from the ‘Market.’”
I was able to meet a man.
