Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 395
Mi Hyo-ran liked to dream.
Unlike now, when many things have changed and become a mess, the world seen in dreams used to reflect the bright and splendid days.
Of course, the nightmares I often have are painful and painful to the point of death, but even so, the dreams still reflect the happiest days.
Also, on the one hand, I felt that the dream was sad.
Because the dreams that show only the happiest moments that you won’t be able to experience now make you feel empty after waking up.
It was like that even now.
Mi Hyo-ran knew that she was dreaming. can’t know
It would only be in a dream to see a friend you can no longer see standing in front of you so clearly.
– It’s a flower, a flower!
-Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! It’s a bee!
-Hyoran! Biyeon runs away!
-Chunhee! put that down!
…
Actually, I don’t think it’s a scene I really want to see. Mi Hyo-ran suddenly comes to such a realization.
Still, he did not avert his gaze.
-What is Hyo?
In a situation close to chaos. The white-haired woman approaches me with a smile.
It was always a great smile.
Even Mi Hyo-ran, who was considered to be cold or even cold-hearted, felt that something frozen had melted a little when she faced that child’s smile.
He’s such a charming kid.
Maybe that’s why the man smiled at her as well.
-Hyoran! These are flowers!
Anyone can see how they can smile so happily while pushing something that is not an ordinary flower. Although it was not easy to understand Mi Hyo-ran’s personality.
Mi Hyo-ran first received the flowers she gave her.
Looking at it, someone expresses disgust.
– Misoser! That’s poison! Throw it away!
It was a cold-looking beauty with black hair and wearing a light blue uniform.
Even though it has a cold impression as if it will be frosted. The character is, on the contrary, a fiery woman.
Baekbong, Moyong and Biyeon. It was a woman called that.
At Mo Yong Bi-yeon’s words, the white-haired woman whirls around and changes direction. It was in the direction of Mo Yong Bi-yeon. Mo Yong Bi-yeon, who confirmed that, screamed and started to run away.
– He must be crazy! no! Leave the bee behind and come!
– It’s a flower!
– Because I know, don’t come!
Seeing that, Mi Hyo-ran smiled while covering her face with a fan.
It was like a trivial play, but on the one hand, it made me feel stable.
Thinking so, Mi Hyo-ran looked at her hand.
In her hand was an unknown white flower. The white-haired woman gave it to her, and Mo Yong Bi-yeon was said to be poisonous and to throw it away.
Mi Hyo-ran was well aware that this flower was not poisonous. He was sure that that child would never give him a flower like that.
Carefully put the flower in your bosom and think.
– I’ll have to find out the name of the flower later.
Maybe it’s because I like flowers so much?
If the time is right, the thought of raising it later crossed my mind.
After that, Mihyoran gazed at the scene unfolding in front of her with calm eyes.
A cloudless sky and a vast forest. A rare butterfly and the sound of grass insects in the forest.
Would people believe that the now seemingly peaceful scene is called the ‘Magic Scenery’?
It can’t be.
It wasn’t anything else, it was because Mihyoran couldn’t believe it herself.
Is this the demonic realm that so many feared?
Even though I wonder how I came to such a place. Contrary to her situation, she wasn’t too worried.
It was then.
Was it because I was young or because I didn’t care about anything when I was with them?
In the eyes of Mihyoran now, it must have been closer to the latter.
no matter what happens If you’re with them, you’ll be fine.
It was a time when he was engulfed in such immature romance that completely contradicted his personality. Funny enough, I missed that time and dreamed of it so much.
That’s why you feel sad.
It was all the more sad because I knew it was a sight I would never see again.
Mi Hyo-ran now knows that too.
That the present moment you are experiencing is a dream.
That’s why I’m trying to put a little more in my eyes.
Because it will be a bit of a pleasure to live in the future.
Mi Hyo-ran suddenly saw a white-haired woman who had been chasing Mo Yong Bi-yeon for a long time, approaching Mi Hyo-ran.
– Hyoran.
She calls Mi Hyo-ran.
Along with the flowing white hair, her purple eyes that were close to pink were like jewels.
-happy?
Mi Hyo-ran is taken aback by the woman’s words. The reflection of his own face in her eyes looked quite surprised.
-What…
-Hyoran is happy. Is Hyoran happy?
Can I hear this because it’s a dream?
By the time Mi Hyo-ran had a strange feeling, she realized that she couldn’t come up with any answer.
say you’re happy
At least he could say no, but on the contrary, it was not easy for Mi Hyo-ran to think of what happiness was.
what is happiness
I wonder if I’m hearing these words even in my dreams because I often think of them lately.
And that, of course, to his friends.
Mi Hyo-ran did not come up with an answer. After a moment of thought, he spoke to her.
– I’m trying to be happy.
And he asks the opposite of the spiral.
– Were you happy?
At Mihyoran’s words, she laughed. No answer came.
I knew.
That she won’t give me an answer.
After all, this world was just a memory that Mi Hyo-ran wanted to see.
The white-haired woman says to Mi Hyo-ran, who was trying to put the world in her eyes once again, erasing the regret.
– It’s not Hyoran’s fault. So you can be happy.
-…!
Mi Hyo-ran hardens at the woman’s words.
It was because I felt something strange to be a dream.
The moment Mi Hyo-ran looked at the woman with trembling eyes and was about to reach out.
[Danju.]
A voice from afar invaded Mihyoran’s ears.
That moment.
Mi Hyo-ran had no choice but to wake up from her dream.
******************
When Mi Hyo-ran opened her eyes. The dark ceiling greeted her first.
It seems that the night has not passed yet. Mi Hyo-ran confirmed this and slowly got up.
“…”
Even though she had just woken up, Mi Hyo-ran’s eyes were clear. It is a look that comes from her will to always be calm as much as the appearance.
The inside should be chaotic, but the outside should be sharp.
It was one of the iron rules of Danju who led the guild.
Mi Hyo-ran stood up and shook her head slightly to organize her thoughts.
‘…What kind of dream was it?’
I must have dreamed of something. I couldn’t remember. It seemed like it was an important dream, but…
Knowing or not knowing, it reminded me of regret, but Mi Hyo-ran tried to forget it and looked to the side.
“What is going on?”
Beside him, a man in black and a mask was kneeling on one knee, facing Mi Hyo-ran.
It was Mujin, her escort.
“…a guest has come.”
“this time?”
“yes.”
Mi Hyo-ran frowned at Mu-jin’s answer.
The fact that a guest came at such a late hour means that he visited rudely without contacting us.
Such people were one of the types of people Mi Hyo-ran, who values planning, hated the most.
Even so, the reason Mi Hyo-ran didn’t get angry was because of Mu-jin, who woke herself up despite knowing everything.
If they knew it was rude, Mujin would have taken care of it.
If he bothered to wake her up and call her a guest, it meant that he was an important guest to Mi Hyo-ran.
Knowing that, she doesn’t even speak anymore.
“Where are the guests?”
“…waiting outside.”
At Mujin’s words, Mihyoran nodded and walked outside.
After grooming himself, he had to check who the visitor was.
‘Who is it.’
A person who can come to you at this time.
A few popped into my head, but among them, there was no one that Mujin wouldn’t stop.
Knowing that, Mi Hyo-ran had no choice but to question.
Who the hell came to you?
profit.
came out the door
The first thing I saw was a lake. A small lake in the residence that was separately supported by the inn.
The lake reflects the full moon rising in the sky.
It’s a very nice scenery. It was a thought that Mi Hyo-ran came up with.
It was only after seeing that point that Mihyoran could see that not only herself, but another person was looking at the lake.
“…ah?”
As soon as he confirmed it, Mi Hyo-ran showed a reaction.
It was hidden in the shadows, but Mi Hyo-ran could tell.
That is her identity.
“Ahaha.”
The person who noticed that Mi Hyo-ran recognized him laughed.
Her characteristic cheerful and high laugh.
“how?”
Having heard that far, Mi Hyo-ran was even more convinced.
That this person is the woman he knows.
Hearing Mi Hyo-ran’s voice, which is unusually flustered, the opponent begins to approach me, scratching my cheek as if embarrassed.
The shadow that covered the figure is erased and the identity of the person is revealed.
It was a woman in a light blue uniform with black hair that was still flowing.
Unlike Mi Hyo-ran, who is an ordinary person, because she was born as a warrior, she does not seem to have aged much.
That’s envy as a woman and at the same time.
He was in the shape of that time, which made Mi Hyo-ran think of the nostalgic days.
“Misoser.”
“…”
Mi Hyo-ran’s pupils tremble at the title she hadn’t heard in at least ten years.
“long time no see.”
Mi Hyo-ran’s shoulders stiffened at the words of the awkward greeting.
Looking at Mi Hyo-ran like that, the woman was clearly nervous.
A blood relative of the Moyong family, a rival and close friend who looked at the same man in the past.
It was the white lotus sword Moyong Biyeon.
Mo Yong Bi-yeon looks at Mi Hyo-ran, who is hardened, and starts talking.
“Can we talk?”
A kind of trembling voice.
Mihyoran looked at her and didn’t say anything, but nodded her head slightly.
So the two entered the dorm.
******************
“I’m sorry.”
An apple that I heard while eating rice in the morning.
I took a handful of dumplings and looked at the man handing me an apple.
A woman with black short hair that reaches her shoulders in a black uniform stands out.
It was Paeng Ah-hee.
“Ahhh?”
“…Sorry for interrupting your eating. Will you eat everything and tell me…?”
After that, I chewed on what was in my mouth and then I asked her again.
“What is he saying now. Why are you suddenly apologizing?”
Suddenly, he came to me in the morning and asked why he was like this. Paeng Ah-hee avoids my gaze and says,
“I heard that you and the head of the family had some business.”
“ah.”
Are you talking about yesterday?
Apparently, he was referring to the friction he had with Paeng Gaju on the streets of Hanam last night…
I had to tilt my head as I heard the reason.
“Isn’t that what happened to me?”
If there was a job, it was with Gu Yeon-seo. If an accident had occurred, it would have occurred with the white lotus sword.
It wasn’t much of a problem for me, though.
Despite my words, Paeng Ah-hee just continued talking with a bad expression.
“I also apologized to the old Soju… Sorry.”
It seems that he went to Gu Yeon-seo as well.
Is Paeng Ah-hee cleaning up the shit that her father, Dowang, has done? just look at this
‘He seems to be fine… I don’t know why he’s like that.’
It was a strange thing to see that the Dowang’s temper was like that, but his children were fine.
Paeng Ah-hee was the closest to the normal category to me.
Paeng Woo-jin… First of all, he was never normal, but at least he wasn’t a bad-tempered person like Dowang.
Remembering that, I said to Paeng Ah-hee.
“Again, you don’t have to apologize to me.”
“…huh.”
Despite my words, Paeng Ah-hee’s expression still didn’t look good, but what can I do?
“Originally…not like that. It’s just that your condition hasn’t gotten better lately.”
Paeng Ah-hee spits out the words as if making excuses behind her back.
I also sympathized with her words.
As far as I can remember, it was around the time when the rumors of Guga and Paengga’s breakup came up. If the Dowang had had that temper, it would have been a mess, but it went well.
It seems that there has been some problem lately.
‘I’m not really curious about that.’
It was about the family over there, so I didn’t care.
At best, it should be enough to pay attention so that there is no more friction.
‘I think I’ll be a bit annoyed if I get involved next time too.’
As someone who has met many of those types of people.
I knew very well that I would not be able to tolerate my temper for long. If I continue to get involved with the Dowang, I will bite him without even realizing it.
No matter how much it was, it was obvious that if the four generations ran into the family head, it would be a bit difficult.
If you can’t stand it, it’s best to avoid it.
In that sense, from my point of view, it was safe to say that the Dowang was shit.
Poop is dirty, so I avoid it.
“Never mind. Eat some rice.”
“…”
“Just by looking at you, you starved.”
“Even if you don’t eat rice…”
“Then go hook. Sit down and eat quickly.”
These are words from the heart. Because I didn’t fill my stomach properly. I’ve seen too many guys that pile up and get hooked.
It would be stupid to starve when you can eat.
Even at my words, Paeng Ah-hee is hesitant, so Dang So-yeol and Wi Seol-ah pull her to sit down.
By the way, Namgoongbia was still sleeping in the room.
It was a time when Mo Yong-hee had not yet appeared.
‘I need to see him soon.’
It was time to blow some heat into Mo Yong-hee. Mo Yong-hee would know better, so wouldn’t it come on her own?
…if it doesn’t come.
‘Should I go find it?’
I honestly didn’t want to. Even looking at it, it was obvious that the Baekcheon Sword Master would be attached next to Mo Yong-hee.
When I think of that, a sigh comes out of my mouth.
‘Why are all these guys fucking with me?’
For some reason, all the noblemen, the heads of the four generations of families, were impatient because they couldn’t eat me.
Namgung-jin now has a different meaning, but Baekcheon Sword Master was really impatient because he couldn’t eat me. The Dowang’s eyes looking at me were very serious.
in that sense.
‘At least the poison king…’
Wouldn’t he be a relatively good person?
When I think about it that way, the sugar fever looks a little different.
It’s because her eyes and taste are a little weird, but the rest of it belongs to the normal category like Paeng Ah-hee.
The moment I was about to nod my head thinking about that. Dang Soyeol looked at me and opened his mouth, as if he had noticed that I was thinking of him.
“Ah, the old Confucius.”
“…uh huh?”
As if a thief tripped at my feet, I looked at it startled.
Dang So-yeol smiles softly. It was his usual expression.
“I have something to tell you about the trip to Sichuan this time.”
Oh, is it because of Sacheon? I’m glad.
It was time to slow down. The moment I tried to answer with that in mind.
“Because of that, my father wants to see Confucius once. Do you have time today?”
“…”
Dang So-yeol’s words forced me to shut my mouth. The father she was talking about was a single king.
…The poison king wants to meet me?
In the middle of an unknown creepy feeling.
Dang So-yeol went on.
“They said they would prepare the meals on our side! They said they would find a delicious place!”
“…Ah…”
The king of poison prepares the food for me to eat.
Obviously, nothing strange was said.
It’s because of the nickname he has, for some reason, I feel a sense of insecurity creeping in.
must be an illusion
I absolutely had to.
