Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 658
[Episode 658] Hands off.
The first time I talked about it was not something like this, but rather a commercial story.
He talked about what he had experienced in the North Sea.
I didn’t spit out anything I couldn’t spit out. Organize what you can say and deliver it to Mo Yong-hee.
Of course, that role was to be played by Yuri, not by me.
Sarak.
Mo Yong-hee reads the organized seochal a few times.
In the room, only the sound of her stroking the book could be heard.
Mo Yong-hee, who has been looking at the book for a long time, says.
“I heard the story well.”
As he spoke, his eyes were still on the book.
“First of all, I regret what happened in the North Sea.”
“Thank you for your words….”
Yuri replies to Mo Yong-hee’s remarks, but I can feel the tension in her voice.
Can not help it.
Mo Yong-hee was a difficult person to deal with in this position.
Took.
Mo Yong-hee, who put down the book she was holding, looks at Yuri.
“Apart from those regrets, there are many things I want to ask the acting royal. May I begin?”
“…yes.”
This was the start.
“Thank you for your understanding. If so, it is part of the contract we made before proceeding with the work.”
voice is lowered At best (?), the intimidation of a guy who was at his peak was no joke.
“The contract said that if the work was done, we would be able to obtain an exclusive contract with the North Sea. Is that contract still valid?”
“…Valid.”
Mo Yong-hee nodded at Yuri’s answer.
“Then the word that the deal will proceed within at least three months after finishing it. Is that still possible?”
‘hmm?’
Hearing what Mo Yong-hee said, he raised his eyes.
‘Have you signed a contract like that?’
I know you got exclusive trading rights, etc. It seemed that he had been holding on tight until the deadline.
The work was done anyway.
Hearing that, Yuri’s expression darkened.
“…There seems to be a problem with that part, so it seems difficult.”
Circulate the transaction within three months. Even if the contract is said to be that way, it is impossible for now.
‘Of course.’
Yes, that’s normal. The war is not over, it is still going on.
Looking at the condition, it won’t be long before I win and organize it.
Even that would take three months.
Afterwards, it will take a year if not until the ice palace is rebuilt, staffed, and stabilized.
Ignore this and start trading in three months? It was nonsense.
“okay.”
Upon hearing the answer, Mo Yong-hee nodded lightly.
Since it was the news he had already heard through the seochal, he would have expected it right away.
“Then, in your opinion, when do you think the deal will be possible?”
“Even if I can’t do it, until this time next year…”
“Please tell me exactly. That is what he said when signing the contract.”
“…”
Except for the hair, they all look similar, but the feel is different.
I could see that Yu-Ri, who was pressed by Mo Yong-Hui-Ah’s spirit, was at a loss.
Yuri must also have a smart side of her own, but she seemed far less than Mo Yong-hee.
“We can do it by next fall.”
changed from summer to fall. It is a reasonable treatment.
but.
“At least a few more months, that’s the situation.”
There was no need to understand it from this side.
“The situation in the North Sea is regrettable, but as a result, the contract was not fulfilled, so I think we should change the ratio rather than cancel the contract. Do you agree?”
Before Yuri could answer anything, a book was already lying on the table.
When did you take it out again?
no in the first place.
‘When did you prepare that?’
As you can see, it wasn’t just prepared. A few days had passed, judging from the condition of the calligraphy writing and the hardening of the ink.
What this means.
‘…Does this mean that it was expected from the time of departure?’
No matter how you look at it, within three months is impossible.
It meant that the expected Mo Yong-hee was already preparing to change the contract.
‘Scary guy.’
Even if no one else knows, you should never get caught by Mo Yong-hee.
Seeing this made me even more convinced.
Of course, changing contracts isn’t that easy, so as the conversation progressed, Yuri seemed to be trying to do something.
but.
“thank you. So let’s end this case like this.”
“…Yes, yes…”
By the time the conversation ended, Yuri was contemplating as if exhausted.
Mo Yong-hee had a neat appearance, no different from the first time.
I get a cold sweat just looking at it from the side.
The way he pushed his opponent with words was to the point of sticking out his tongue without even realizing it.
“I have prepared a place for the princess to stay. The escorts who came with you will also go that way.”
‘Oh yes, there were guys like that.’
Come to think of it, the guys who came as Yuri’s escort seem to have been abandoned here.
It was annoying, so I left it, but Mo Yong-hee seemed to have taken it well.
‘…then Yuri should be here until at least next fall.’
As a palace lord, it must have been sent as an evacuation, but in the end, it was no different than a hostage.
I have a reason to hold on until the contract is properly fulfilled.
Accordingly, the palace became the reason to start trading with the upper house as soon as the war ended.
It means that glass is a leash.
Mo Yong-hee smiled and said that.
“…thank you.”
Yuri, who had nothing more to say, nodded tiredly and the conversation ended.
Afterwards, Yuri followed the attendant’s guidance and got up first.
When I saw that, I patted Woohyuk and told him to follow me.
Woo-hyeok follows Yuri without saying anything.
“I will go first.”
Mo Yong-hee pretended not to see Woo-hyeok’s greeting and ignored it.
His attitude was so ferocious that he couldn’t even point it out.
After the two of them left, there was silence in the room for a while.
Around the time when I thought the unit of seconds became almost billions.
“Whoa…”
Mo Yong-hee sighed softly, and the atmosphere relaxed a little.
After slightly loosening her stiff expression, Mo Yong-hee looks at me and asks.
“Have you been well?”
“…depending on?”
“Looking at this, it doesn’t seem like it went well.”
Maybe it’s because what the heck is written in the calligraphy written by the palace owner?
I felt like I was breaking out in a cold sweat.
Maybe my expression was obvious, but Mo Yong-hee looked at me and smiled.
“That’s Okay. Because I knew long ago that Confucius would stay normal wherever he went and not come back.”
“…does it sound like a curse?”
“yes. It’s not a compliment.”
“Uh huh… yes.”
I had to laugh shyly at that.
“Where is Mrs. Mi?”
“Danju said he had a schedule for a few days and was away. Maybe… he’ll be back sometime tomorrow.”
Is it a schedule In terms of timing, it was a time when Mrs. Mi was busy.
‘In a little while, it’ll be non-mujeni.’
When the guild is busy, it’s not when the festival is going on, but right before it.
From now on, contracts and preparations must be made in advance to benefit from the festival, so it was not strange that the solitary owner, Mrs. Mi, was moving.
“And… even if it’s not that, I think you’re a little busy because of the rumors.”
“rumor?”
I asked for a meaningful word.
That’s something I’ve heard before.
During the conversation I had with Beom-dong, I heard about ‘rumors’ coming and going.
“The Lord of Blindness came. I think that was the problem, what happened?”
“Ah…”
I asked, and Mo Yong-hee hesitated for a moment before speaking up.
That’s what I was told.
“A group called the Demonic Cult has recently emerged that is causing a stir in the midfield.”
When I heard the story, I couldn’t help but smile instead of being surprised.
‘Looks like you’re doing well.’
It looks like you’re doing it right.
It must have been a bit fast paced, but it wasn’t bad at all.
“It is said that the order was founded by an unheard-of expert called the Heavenly Demon.
This is also assumed.
Rather, I went around like that to spread rumors, but there was a feeling that it spread later than expected.
yeah it was fine so far
however.
“The true identity of the Heavenly Demon. There are rumors that he is one of the three respected people, Paejon (敗尊).”
‘…what?’
I didn’t expect this.
That doesn’t mean I didn’t plan it.
Where did the rumor come from?
before even thinking about it.
“huh?”
A questioning voice is heard from behind.
“…”
I had to swallow dry saliva, feeling the sudden stare.
‘…I think it must be Jojin?’
It is unconditional.
That man just started to doubt me with words. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately began to doubt me.
That’s too much. It’s true that I did it, but shouldn’t I worry about it?
‘Who the fuck is that?’
Where is the source of that rumor?
At least, it was a rumor that shouldn’t spread ‘yet’.
Who is it?
‘Could it be Pilduma?’
It was the most likely person, but I thought it was not.
He’s not that stupid an old man to spread the word about this.
who would it be
‘I don’t know.’
I don’t know right now. It wasn’t even the time to roll your head.
“Gongja?”
“Pazone… I don’t think that’s possible?”
The first thing to do was pretend not to know.
Mo Yong-hee nods as if agreeing with my answer.
“Yes, I think so too.”
Mo Yong-hee’s gaze goes somewhere.
It was toward Pazon, who was sitting right behind him.
Did you notice that Pazon is here? I don’t think so.
‘It must have been because there is a descendant of the rain.’
Xianbi, born in Pazon Biju.
As long as there are blood relatives there, he would not dare to swear.
“…because it’s unlikely that the triad of the right sect, not anyone else, would do that.”
“No way.”
Pazon let out a smirk. It was the first voice I heard when I came here.
“I don’t think that great person would do that…”
In my own words, he is a great person. I somehow managed to put up with the rotting expression on my face.
“Do you know why such rumors spread?”
This is what Pazon asked Mo Yong-hee.
“As for the information, there are rumors that someone spread it.”
Mo Yong-hee’s tone gave off the feeling that it wasn’t like that.
Does that mean that no one spread the information?
So what?
As soon as I had such a question, Mo Yong-hee said,
“…There is information that the martial art he used to kill the shaman faction elder was the Dokmun martial art used by Paegon.”
“…”
“This is not confirmed information, but… They say that they are investigating based on the fact that the Heavenly Demon showed an intimidation equivalent to that of a triad.”
I listened and nodded.
Um, that’s right.
‘It’s because of me. Heh heh fuck.’
It seemed that there was a problem because it was so messy.
It’s something to do with Siri so that I can’t even curse.
I thought Tua Pa Tianmu wouldn’t go unnoticed because he didn’t have much distinctive martial arts from the outside.
‘Someone must have seen it.’
If it was enough to notice this, there were other elders around.
‘I found a trace of something…’
It seemed that he had found something.
‘I’m exhausted.’
I had to worry while hiding my cold sweat.
Is it a problem that information spread like that? That’s not it.
‘What do I know?’
I’m not interested in any of that since I haven’t been caught anyway.
the problem is.
‘It means I shouldn’t get caught by that person.’
At least it was that the culprit shouldn’t find out.
‘My gaze hurts.’
Pajon is already staring at me.
I couldn’t turn my head.
If you turn now, it’s over.
how can i do it I thought about it after shaking my head for a while.
‘It can’t be helped.’
There is nothing you can do about it. I had to resort to last resort.
‘Splatter.’
Let’s run away.
Thinking so, I got up.
“Gongja?”
“Something urgent has happened. See you later.”
“yes? suddenly? ball-!”
Mo Yong-hee is urgently trying to call me.
It was right after it had already disappeared.
“…Huh?”
Mo Yong-hee is embarrassed by the sudden situation.
Are you really going for this? long time no see?
“This person is really…!”
Mo Yong-hee fiercely clenched her fists and gnashed her teeth.
‘We haven’t finished talking yet…!’
In particular, I couldn’t even bring up the story related to the sword stick, but why did it disappear so quickly?
The moment Mo Yong-hee tried to soothe her boiling inside.
“Then I will go first. See you later!”
Dang So-yeol, who was watching from behind, quickly greeted Mo Yong-hee and disappeared.
that was more irritating
“…See you both later, I won’t leave you alone.”
Mo Yong-hee, who thought that she would give a damn if she was caught, managed to catch her breath.
And noticed.
That I am alone with an uncomfortable person in this room now.
“…”
Mo Yong-hee, as if embarrassed by her attitude, corrected her posture.
Then I looked at the young man in front of me.
He is a beautiful woman with dark hair, black eyes and mild-looking features.
‘Two dragons.’
Peason’s bloodline.
Tu-ryong Mystic Jin.
Although they are the same six dragons and three peaks, they have never had a conversation.
I just see him as a close friend because he goes with Yangcheon.
Mo Yong-hee was also a person who was slightly uncomfortable.
‘…a man with a strange atmosphere.’
He doesn’t seem to have put up a wall, but he seems indifferent to others.
The gaze that was not interested in anything made those black eyes even darker.
Her instincts were speaking.
I mean, you shouldn’t just treat the author.
Anxiety for no reason makes Mo Yong-hee hold on to her attitude.
In such discomfort, Mo Yong-hee is watching Tu-ryong.
‘Why aren’t you going?’
For some reason, the two dragons did not leave the room and sat still.
If the party had left, he would have stood up.
Mo Yong-hee has a question about this.
“You know.”
Tu-ryong spoke to Mo Yong-hee and listened.
“Did you say Seolbong?”
“…Yes, that’s right. Tulong Confucius.”
At Mo Yong-hee’s answer, Tu-ryong smiled.
It seemed like a gentle smile, but I felt an unknown reluctance.
In the midst of such reluctance, Tu-ryong said something unexpected to Mo Yong-hee.
“Looks like he likes to trade. Would you like to make a deal with me? I will give you something not bad as a reward.”
“…What kind of deal do you mean all of a sudden? If it’s about the words just now…”
“Oh, that’s not true. It’s obvious anyway, so I’ll have to figure it out on my own.”
“yes?”
Are you saying this isn’t a question about paison?
So what are you going to trade for?
“I’m asking because Sojeo seems to be a trustworthy person. I just want you to get me one piece of information.”
“…Information?”
“It’s nothing.”
The expression on the expression of Tu-ryong, who had been spitting out the words, changed.
“I would like to ask for some information about the King of Flames.”
It seemed like he was still smiling.
Tu-ryong was just smiling.
Seeing that, Mo Yong-hee had to feel chills.
********************
It came out as if running away from the top.
I increased my speed and increased the distance, but my gaze was slightly looking back.
‘…why won’t you follow me?’
I thought that he would follow me right away and grab me by the nape of my neck, but contrary to my expectations, Pajon did not follow me.
that was more scary
It’s like seeing you later.
‘I’m sick.’
I never thought that such a rumor would spread.
It hurt a little bit.
“…tsk.”
He clicked his tongue and shook his head.
oh i don’t know If you get caught, you have to pretend otherwise. Is there anything special?
‘I said no, but what am I going to do?’
I decided to go simple. It’s a so-called double cut.
Or it could have been to run away for days.
It will be more difficult when we meet later.
Tuk-tuk.
I brushed off the dust that had come out in a hurry.
“Hmm.”
Shaking off the dust, I looked around and saw that there were a lot of people.
It must be because of the many people who arrived as the festival period was approaching.
Even among the crowds, it was found that the proportion of unmanned people increased significantly.
‘The level is also high.’
Not only first-class, but also the occasional peak-level uninhabited.
Most of them are probably those who came for the non-muje.
‘Looks like you’re very interested in this non-moving festival.’
It must be so.
This is because it is the first non-untitled festival in a few years, and the products caught are unusual.
‘There may be famous swords or elixirs.’
The most important thing here is nothing else.
‘Resurrection of the Shinryudae.’
A group of masters who represented the Moorim Alliance and a unit under the direct command of the leader.
It was the Sinryongdae, and the unit that disappeared for a while because of an incident talked about resurrection with the Bimuje.
Along with the meaning of rebuilding the symbolism, it is an honor to be able to share the beginning.
If you are a nobleman who dies and lives for fame, you will inevitably be greedy.
And that was an important part for me too.
The most important part of the ‘plan’ for the future.
I had to use that Shinryongdae somehow.
‘There’s less than a month until the festival, so let’s get ready soon.’
It pissed me off having to move as soon as I arrived, but it wasn’t the time to hesitate.
So, first of all, I’m going to check what I’ve left. The moment I wanted to visit Pilduma again.
Took-!
“Wow!”
Someone bumped into me and I fell.
When I looked up, it was a woman.
Naturally, I didn’t reach out my hand to lift him up, I just looked at him.
Afterwards, the woman raised her fallen body and hurriedly bowed her head to me.
“sorry. The girl couldn’t see straight ahead. Are there any injuries?”
When you lower your head, you can feel the incense filling the tip of your nose.
I felt it and wrinkled my nose.
It was an awful smell. It’s a scent I don’t like very much.
At the same time, the woman’s face was visible through the veil.
Seeing that, my eyebrows move slightly.
‘haha.’
I smiled when I checked.
It was a familiar face.
The woman was quite off-white.
If Wiseol-ah or Namgung-bia are the faces that people would stare at for a hundred out of a hundred, then ninety out of a hundred would look at them.
The mature atmosphere and strange eyes were impressive, and the voluptuous body and body line were prominent, but it was a look that would burn men’s hearts no matter who saw it.
‘Look at this?’
All the women around me are superior, so I can’t see that level of beauty.
The reason for the surprise was not different.
‘He’s still quick to act. Send that bitch right away.’
The woman’s nickname is Bihyeonhwa.
She was a member of the Murimmaeng investigation team and a woman famous for stealing information using beauty circles.
that is.
In Murimmaeng, it also means a girl sent by Beom-dong.
