Cheonma Wants to Live Quietly

So far, after spending time with the prostitutes he would rest for an hour on his own and left.

But today, something must have gotten into him as he had come here straight after he was done.

Various thoughts went on in her head.

As the silence dragged on, her thoughts became more complicated.

“How’s the investigation going?”

“Sorry? I sent you reports of all the progress we’ve had so far….”

Taesan smirked.

“No, not that. You looked into me. I’m referring to that.”

Mdm Rogue turned pale and her heart started to beat so fast she thought it would burst. Her entire body was covered in cold sweat and goosebumps.

“I…that….”

Taesan raised her hand to silence her.

Mdm Rogue was surprised and kneeled on the floor immediately.

“I…I am so sorry. Please forgive me once!”

As her body was kneeling and begging for forgiveness, her mind couldn’t comprehend why she was doing this.

She was unusually afraid of Taesan.

“That’s enough, get up. I don’t mean to do anything. I simply asked if the investigation was complete.”

Even as she heard those words she could not relax. In fact, she felt tenser.

Normally the powerful ones spoke in such a way before taking you doWN.

Mdm Rogue slowly raised up her body and looked at Taesan.

She needed to check his expression and eyes.

Taesan was more collected and calm than ever.

“Please…give me one minute.”

Mdm Rogue started to move. She took out a document from a secret compartment and politely passed it to Taesan.

Taesan took it expectantly and looked through it briefly.

“You investigated more on the goldenwall clan…than myself?”

“Yes. We were trying to be careful….”

The corner of Taesan’s lips went up.

“You have a good instinct.”

As the atmosphere turned out positive, Mdm Rogue started to relax a little.

Then all of a sudden his expression turned cold.

“So did you find out anything about me?”

Mdm Rogue felt like a puppy in front of a tiger. She felt so small in her own body.

“N, No!”

Even if she did know, she had to reply that she didn’t. And even, in reality, she didn’t have much.

“No? That’s rather disappointing?”

“I only know you have a secret I don’t know about. Besides that, I really know nothing.”

Taesan nodded.

“That’s good for now. Then do you have any information on the single acupuncturist?”

“Yes.”

She had investigated continuously on well-known figures and profiled them constantly. So she had quite a lot of information on the single acupuncturist.

Although most of the gathered information was on his past and whereabouts.

Taesan gestured with a finger asking her to bring it to him, immediately Mdm Rogue brought the information on the single acupuncturist from her secret compartment.

Taesan laughed as he read through the documents.

“What a funny fella”

“There’s a reason why people refer to him as ruthless. He is quite hard to predict.”

“Maybe he just lives and does what he wants?”

Mdm rogue did not reply. That was one way to look at it, but in a warrior, their strength played an important role in their overall skill.

The single acupuncturist’s ruthless and unpredictable behavior was a facade to hide his immense strength.

“Well, I am known to be able to grow guys like this.”

Mdm Rogue sensed that a large storm was coming and shuddered.

“Don’t just stand there and take this.”

Taesan threw a piece of paper.

The paper fluttered and dropped in front of Mdm Rogue.

Perhaps it was coincidence or Taesan had controlled it, she wasn’t sure.

And it wasn’t all that important.

But if it was someone else with more experience and martial skills, standing in her position. They would have been able to sense the difference as Taesan threw the paper.

Because it requires great skill to replicate natural movement in an object.

Mdm Rogue focused on the contents of the paper. She couldn’t keep her eyes away.

Because this was Amyeongbo.

“I’m sure you know that is not all of it?”

Mdm Rogue carefully picked it up from the floor and held it closely. She felt like she had earned the whole world.

Of course, she still had to test this and see if it was authentic, but from her years of experience dealing with information from Haomoon, her instinct told her this was the real deal.

“Thank you.”

“If you’re thankful then continue to do a good job. Or you can use that and become the next Haomoon.”

Mdm Rogue felt her heart rate increase at those words.

“Me…the next head of Haomoon?”

Taesan smirked after seeing her expression and quietly left.

Mdm rogue, unaware that Taesan had already left, was frozen with a blank, no, ambitious thought.

***

The great doctor was seated opposite the head of the dongho foundation.

He had visited him today to discuss future plans.

It was actually not allowed for the secret Cheonma associations to work together like this.

Because it was easier for a bigger group to be found out.

It was best to work together temporarily and maintain their secret.

But this was a peculiar case.

At least that’s what the doctor perceived it to be.

“It is against the rules for us to meet like this. We don’t even know if we are from the same clan to benign with.”

The head of the dongho foundation spoke coldly.

It was 180 degrees different from the way he treated Taesan.

“It’s not a hundred percent non-compliance. This is a very peculiar situation.”

The head of the dongho foundation frowned at the doctor’s sly behavior.

“Hyeon Cheon Jin will be resolved with time. A new majesty will appear.”

“That’s the problem. It will take a long time.”

“Long time? Who says?”

“Who do you think? Our prince of course. He seems to be looking at ten years, minimum.”

“Ten years…..!”

“And that is a minimum so you might want to add on a few years.”

The head of the dongho foundation looked at the doctor.

“How does he know this? I looked into it and he seems to be the second prince of the goldenwall clan…no matter how I search into it he has no connections to the Cheonma clan.”

“Honestly I’m not sure myself. But seeing how he knows more than us….I can guess what his title might be.”

The dongho head looked at him with bright eyes.

“And what is that?”

He believed the doctor as he knew that the doctor had accompanied Taesan for a long time, so assumed he would know his real identity.

Furthermore, his nature of work involved collecting information.

“You are aware that the opening of the Hyeon Cheon Ji means that the current majesty has passed away?”

“Of course. And I assume…that during that process the entire key figures were wiped out. If it’s going to take a long time, it means the damage is extensive.”

“I agree. That’s why our prince is important.”

The dongho head looked at him expectantly.

The doctor was enjoying this look and took his time.

“I think…he’s the hidden son of the majesty who just passed away.”

The dongho head’s eyes widened.

“Is..is that true!”

The doctor put a finger to his lips.

“Shh! Shh! Be quiet. Someone might hear us.”

The dongho head closed his mouth. But he was unable to hide the excitement in his wavering eyes as he looked to the doctor.

“Recently a few flies have been gathering around our prince. So I need your help.”

“How can I help?”

“I need two things.”

“You can tell me.”

“I need your man’s support when the prince is in need of help.”

“That’s a give! If it’s to do with the prince we will not hold back on sharing our resources!”

The dongho head had started to refer to Taesan as the prince as well.

“The second is to find a secret organization.”

“That…sounds more critical.”

It was impossible to predict the future. Taesan would need a strong foundation in order to climb up to a higher position in the future.

“Also, whatever we are doing may not be recognized in the future. I’m sure you already know?”

“Of course.”

This was his back up plan. A form of gamble.

But it was a safe bet. Even if it didn’t work, he had nothing to lose as long as he was careful.

“So please make the necessary preparations.”

“Leave it to me. The business with the Jong clan is finishing up so we have ample time to get ready.”

The doctor formally bowed as a form of sealing their agreement.

“Then I look forward to working with you.”

The dongho head bowed in return and replied.

“Likewise I look forward to working with you.”

There was a hint of ambition in the eyes of both men.
