Absolute Sword Sense

[Side Story Episode 2 Baek Hye-hyang’s Story (2)]

“......Haa.”

Inside the carriage, Baek Hye-hyang rested her chin on the back of her hand and sighed.

Nanmadoje Seogalma, who was sitting across from Baek Hye-hyang, stared at her silently.

Who would have thought she would say that?

‘A drop of blood...'

Didn't that mean that it wouldn't be covered with a single drop of water?

It is the same as saying that we will not make you suffer in the sense that you will not do housework.

However, a situation occurred where it turned into a drop of blood.

‘Hmm.'

At that time, the expression on the face of Ha Seong-woon, the maternal grandfather of the former leader of the Peerless Castle Jinseong Encyclopedia, was not a sight to behold.

The face looked like this, wondering how I should accept this.

It was a statement that could be interpreted in many ways depending on how you heard it.

‘I don't know if I should laugh at this or not....'

As long as it's not the cult leader's business, it's just a feeling of complacency at a drinking party.

However, you should not laugh because the leader spoke in a very serious way.

I didn't know that if I provoked him in a situation where I was already in the worst mood, all the anger might end up on me.

“Cult leader?”

“...Don’t say anything.”

Baek Hye-hyang warned in a low voice.

Seogalma swallowed his saliva at the thick, lifelike voice.

- Wow!

Baek Hye-hyang bit her lip with a bright red face.

Even when I thought about it, what happened earlier was beyond embarrassing and embarrassing.

No matter how urgent it is, I don't know why I said that.

‘shit.'

He is a religious leader in name and identity.

How can you say such a thing to impress your future father-in-law?

“This is why I’m no different from other women.”

‘!?'

Seogalma frowned at Baek Hye-hyang’s words.

If that's what you're worried about, I wanted to say there's absolutely no need to, but I kept my mouth shut.

Because she didn't get permission.

“Three Zones.”

“yes. “Cult leader.”

“Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“........”

How should I answer this?

It was absurd for a moment, but Seogalma held back.

Baek Hye-hyang's current state was not the usual she he knew.

She said in an annoyed voice.

“Since you have taken on the role of eldest son, shouldn’t you come up with a solution?”

‘no?'

I don't know when I became Jangjabang.

Seogalma, who had been silent for a moment, spoke.

“Cult leader.”

“say.”

“Now that it’s like this, how about highlighting another aspect?”

“A different side?”

“Didn’t the cult leader say something just now?”

Baek Hye-hyang narrowed her eyes and wondered what he was talking about.

Seogalma spoke carefully.

“If Nobu sees his daughter-in-law as a father-in-law, I think I will also pay close attention to that aspect.”

“So what does that aspect mean?”

In response to her question, Seogalma spoke meaningfully in a serious voice.

“It’s the feminine side.”

“........”

“How well can she take care of her husband, and so on…”

Baek Hye-hyang’s eyes turned cold as she looked at him.

She completely abandoned her life as a woman in order to revive the blood religion that was on the verge of extinction and to overcome her inferiority complex about her own birth.

However, when I was told to highlight my feminine side, my mood sank to the lowest level.

‘under.'

Is there any reason to do this?

These questions were racing through her mind.

Seogalma, who quickly read Baek Hye-hyang's feelings, quickly changed direction.

“.....You can see the branch, but if the religious leader is not particularly convinced, there is no need to highlight that aspect. Touting other strengths....”

“What strengths?”

“The sect leader is the leader of the Great Blood Cult...”

“For the Lord of the Unmatched Castle, it would be no different from receiving what was passed down to him from his son.”

“Hmm.”

Even though Baek Hye-hyang was unfamiliar with this area, it did not mean she had no insight.

Seogalma, who was silent for a moment, spoke.

“The leader of a certain family has overcome a wall like a religious leader...”

“The person who would become my father-in-law also overcame a wall, and the person who was going to be my husband also overcame a wall.”

“........”

“And it was the same for that year.”

Out of pride, he expressed that he had overcome a wall like this, but strictly speaking, Seolbaek was a step above himself by even overcoming the wall of being a superman.

Therefore, the fact that he was excellent at martial arts was not something to highlight.

Looking at it this way, it actually felt like overcoming walls was a basic requirement in Jin Woon-hwi's family.

‘...I'm embarrassed.'

When I thought about Seogalma, it was absolutely absurd.

It feels like all power is concentrated in one family, to the point where it seems unfair.

In any case, as Baek Hye-hyang said, the things she recommended would become basic knowledge rather than specific advantages.

“I’m disappointed. “Jangja’s room.”

I wanted to say it earlier, but I don't remember specifically calling myself Jang-bang.

This is so embarrassing.

But you can't just tell your religious leader to give up and take the third position.

Her face was the face of the blood religion.

“I thought it would be helpful because I had a daughter-in-law, even though I had some experience and was the wife of a student, but it doesn’t really help, does it?”

“Hmm.”

When he saw her looking at him with a disappointed face, he too felt strangely upset.

“......All right. “I will make sure that Nobu is recognized as the leader of the sect.”

“Don’t just talk, come up with a concrete plan.....”

“If you want to get a plan, please completely follow Nobu’s suggestions.”

“totally?”

“It’s meaningless if you don’t completely trust and follow Nobu. “If you act unexpectedly like this time, it will have no effect.”

“Don’t do anything unexpected...?”

“That's right.”

One of Baek Hye-hyang’s eyebrows rose at Seo Galma’s voice filled with determination.

I could see the will, but what was this annoying feeling?

Something feels uncomfortable.

But no suitable solution came to mind.

“Then will you completely follow Nobu?”

“Can you show clear results?”

“I will show it to you. If we can’t do that, Nobu will take responsibility for this situation and step down...”

“There’s no point in stepping down, you’ll have to be prepared.”

Seogalma swallowed dry saliva at her words.

The card has already been thrown.

Now I had to somehow grant her wish.

* * *

Inside the matchless carriage following the carriage procession of the blood religion.

Jin Seong-baek, the lord of the peerless castle and Jin Woon-hwi's father, is continuously stroking his beard and moaning.

“Hmm.”

Ha Seong-woon, Jin Woon-hwi's maternal grandfather, spoke to him.

“You seem to be worried. son-in-law.”

“I’m embarrassed.”

I meant it sincerely.

Ha Sung-woon nodded as if he understood him.

He too was very surprised.

It was not just anyone else, but the head of a blood religion at the time who very confidently asked for her to become his daughter-in-law.

“Wow.”

Jin Woon-hwi already had a fiancee.

And she also had a child.

Of course, as there is a saying, “three wives and four concubines,” it is not a fault to have multiple wives.

It might have been natural for Unhwi, who had the best reputation in the world.

However, because Sima Ying, who was to be the daughter-in-law, was a woman named Sima Chae, who had a reputation as one of the five great evildoers, everyone thought it was a coincidence.

“The leader of a blood religion...”

She is a woman with such great notoriety that she has “blood” added to her nickname.

Since a woman like that likes Unhwi, I don't know if I should like this.

I thought the son-in-law would probably feel the same way.

“Have you decided what to do?”

First, I asked the blood cult leader for some time to think.

I'm embarrassed because it happened so suddenly.

Jin Seong-baek took a deep breath and said in response to a question from his father-in-law, Ha Seong-woon.

“……Honestly, I don’t know. As the religious leader said, if he likes Unhwi, as a father, I don't really want to object, but...”

It's not the kind of daughter-in-law that a father-in-law would feel affection for.

The scent of blood dominates the entire body, and ‘I am a warrior in heaven.' Because she was showing off this kind of energy, I wondered if she would be able to support her son well as a wife.

“I know what you’re thinking.”

“yes?”

“Your eyes are full of life in nature.”

“.......”

“It was like a sharply forged sword. “You shouldn’t judge people based on their physiognomy, but first of all, their eyes are fierce.”

“Hmm.”

It was an undeniable fact.

‘Look at your eyes...'

But that doesn't mean that the head of the blood religion is inferior to other beauties.

It was just very sharp overall.

I didn't even know it felt that way because it wasn't something special.

“But a woman like that may actually be warmer on the inside than she appears on the outside. “Your mother-in-law was not without that aspect, either.”

“You mean your mother-in-law?”

At that moment, the face of his deceased mother-in-law appeared in Jin Seong-baek's mind.

He certainly had a sharp mind.

I can't forget his face when he came to ask for permission to marry Ha-ryeong.

He was the first person in my life who made me feel nervous.

Jin Seongbaek said with a faint smile.

“......That’s definitely true.”

However, after going through it, I realized that there was no one who cared for me as much as he did.

Jin Seong-baek looked at his father-in-law, Ha Seong-woon.

It seems to make all your concerns disappear.

“After listening to what my father-in-law said, I think you shouldn’t judge based only on what you hear and what you see.”

“It’s all like that. “If you judged people based on their physiognomy, how could the old man have accepted you as his son-in-law?”

“yes?”

“I wondered if someone as blunt as you would make my daughter happy.”

“.......I’m sorry.”

When Ha-ryeong was suddenly mentioned, Jin Seong-baek’s face became gloomy.

It was something I said with good intentions, but I felt like it didn't make her happy in the end.

As if by mistake, Ha Sung-woon changed the topic.

“But Unhwi doesn’t look like you.”

“What do you mean by that?”

Ha Sung-woon smiled brightly and said to the puzzled man.

“It was the same because you liked my daughter single-mindedly, but I liked you the most when I saw that you were so blunt that women did not follow you.”

“........”

Jin Seong-baek’s brows furrowed at his father-in-law’s true intentions.

Either way, Ha Sung-woon said he was reminded of the past.

“It was in my time. The women of countless sects of the peerless sect were completely taken aback by the reputation of the Sky Moon Swordsman. “Yeonseo came to me several canteens a day.”

I was bragging, forgetting that I had even talked about my mother-in-law just a moment ago.

Jin Seong-baek, who was listening to this in silence, spoke quietly.

“......I also received a couple of love letters even after I got married.”

“what?”

Jin Seong-baek kept his mouth shut as his father-in-law's face stiffened in an instant.

I fell for his boast and inadvertently ended up telling my wife something she didn't know about.

* * *

About half a day has passed since we traveled north.

Soon, I saw a luxurious guesthouse with several houses connected to a small lake.

Originally, it was a place with many customers, but the signs posted around it made people who were coming and going turn away.

The sign said that the guesthouse had been rented out for two days.

A procession of matchless carriages entered the large garden yard of such a guesthouse.

The carriage door opened and Jin Seong-baek and Ha Seong-woon got out.

“The leader of the blood cult must be very generous to rent an entire place like this in the meantime.”

“okay.”

He said he was looking for a suitable place to have a conversation and found a rather luxurious place.

I had sensed that the religious cult had disappeared from the sight of the procession ahead, but I could already feel it inside the guesthouse.

‘Did you come and prepare in advance?'

All you had to do was send someone underneath, but I thought it was surprising to see the leader move directly.

I thought maybe I was too worried, as my father-in-law said.

The attention to detail wasn't bad.

‘hmm.'

Once you have a conversation, you will be able to find out more about what kind of person he is.

Guided by the members of the Blood Religion who had been waiting in advance, we passed through the main building of the guesthouse and headed towards the back garden where there was a small lake.

There was a large, handsome pavilion there.

As if there was a banquet, numerous guests were cooking in front of the pavilion and musicians were playing softly.

“Hehehe. “You are so meticulous.”

As if this wasn't bad enough, Ha Sung-woon smiled broadly.

As I was walking towards the pavilion, I felt someone who I thought was Baek Hye-hyang approaching.

At this, Jin Seongbaek turned his head towards that place.

‘!!!'

Jin Seong-baek turned his head and his eyes widened.

“Why but? “Sa...”

Ha Seong-woon’s eyes widened as he turned his head towards where his son-in-law was looking.

There, I saw Baek Hye-hyang dressed in elegant yet beautiful palace attire.

She always wore simple, light clothing that was almost like military uniform, but now she had her hair down and even put on makeup.

An exclamation naturally flowed from the mouths of the two people.

Huh.

I thought it would be beautiful if decorated, but I didn't know it would be to this extent.

Baek Hye-hyang is smiling awkwardly at these two people with a flushed face.

A sound came into her ears.

[The corner of the mouth shakes. Cult leader. You should smile naturally. Your eyes should look slightly downward to make your eyes look neat.]

-Ugh!

At the sound of Seogalma, Baek Hye-hyang tried to calm down her rising irritation and embarrassment.
