12. Flying Second Class Warrior (2)
──────────────
-Seonhyeop Siwoo: What do you think about this?
-Seonhyeop Siwoo: Isn’t something strange? Is there a trap in the realm of immortality itself?
-Hwasan Si-woo: Does that mean our world is also in a state of anti-semitism? Jongnam is the best on that side. Honestly, I don’t know if there’s anything so special about the Seonhyeop style being different from ours.
-Hwasan Siwoo: It’s the same as regular martial arts until you reach the peak, but after that it’s called a little differently.
– Seonhyeop Siwoo: That’s because the system is a bit different. The same goes for the rewards that come with the level.
-Hwasan Siu: Ah, lifespan problem? The life expectancy goes up too much there.
– Seonhyeop Siwoo: ㅇㅇ I think that’s the problem.
-Hwasan Siwoo: For that problem, the only way is to consult with SF Siwoo.
-Hwasan Siwoo: In their world, eternal life is the default.

The fact that Seol-yeon stayed as a guest was a great blessing for Ha Ga-pyo-guk. Even considering the disadvantages such as the effort it took to treat him as a guest and the fact that the North Sea Ice Palace was too far away to receive actual help, it was an excellent opportunity to be able to establish a relationship with that level of power.
Moreover, Seol-yeon had her own pride, and she also wanted to impress Si-woo, who may be a immortal. Therefore, rather than being treated indifferently, she wanted to give something of her own back.
In other words, she was able to treat a talented person named Bingseol-yeon without paying much wages and with only a little treatment.
Moreover, she confessed this on the first day she came as her guest.
“The girl is still a second-class warrior, but she has a record of winning against first-class masters.”
Even with elixirs, good weapons, and martial arts power handed down only in the Ice Palace, a martial artist who can compete with a top-notch expert is truly strong. It’s no joke, even if the rest of the country attacked at the same time, the win rate would hardly exceed 30%. In the first place, it makes no sense for that level of talent to exist in just one country.
With someone of that caliber stepping up and leading by example, the operation and growth of Pyoguk gained even more momentum. Even though it may be a bit of an unreasonable plan, it can be solved simply by adding one Bingseolyeon.
The outside was solved so easily, but the problem was inside.
For example, in the case of Ha Yu-ran.
“This trip is of high importance, but the road is difficult and it is difficult to bring many people, so I think I would like to ask a guest.”
“That’s a good idea. But wouldn’t it be too negligent in hospitality to send a guest alone?”
“I think so too. There is also the problem of night watch. However, I can’t think of a suitable person to assist the guest.”
There were times when she thought about obvious answers like this. She was mainly responsible for getting Si-woo and Seol-yeon together.
She couldn’t stand it and when Si-woo told her to use her, she made up various excuses.
“Don’t you have a lot of work to do within your country? “Your insight and wisdom are special, so it would be best for you to stay within the country and help me as much as possible.”
“Isn’t Pyo Guk-ju capable of handling short-term management with me? Of course, the workload will be heavy, but if you think of it as the price you pay for saving manpower and costs and serving guests, it is a very low price.”
“EwwUgh…”
“As the guest’s purpose is myself, there is no better treatment than personally accompanying him. This is true both in terms of coordinating and executing the deeds, and as a warrior who can keep up with a top-notch, high-level warrior. “Can there be a more suitable person?”
Fortunately, Yu-ran is a person whose reason is stronger than emotion, so when Si-woo pushed him with logic, he was quickly persuaded.
However, unlike his usual strict and thorough appearance, it was difficult to say that it was normal for him to be stamped with an expression full of lingering regret.
Then, the day before she left on her journey, she called me into her office and made me work late into the night, but she didn’t seem to be concentrating on her work. As for Si-Woo, she didn’t have any complaints because she thought she would do what needed to be done once the punishment was over anyway.
Moreover, there was another problem. She was Chae Do-hwa, who disrobed as a man and worked as one of the few female secretaries.
She was sad when Si-woo left with Seol-yeon, but her reaction when he returned was especially harsh.
“It’s been so long! “It was really hard while I was waiting, because it felt like every day was like three autumns!”
Saying this, he hugged her tightly, which was somewhat difficult for Si-woo. During her trip, she couldn’t even wash herself properly.
However, regardless of whether Si-woo expressed her disapproval or not, her Dohwa seemed to like it even as he tightened his arms around her and dug in deeply, and as she took a deep breath, she looked up at almost a right angle and smiled brightly.
“I’m so happy that Brother Siu is here!”
“Now, wait a moment. Now that I’m here, I have to organize my luggage, report on my results, check the remaining supplies, and record the documents…”
“I will do that for you, so please stay like this just a little longer.”
Siwoo groaned and groaned, but could not say anything more and stood still like a piece of wood.
In any case, Si-woo is also human, and she misses the warmth and softness of humans when she travels, so she didn’t feel bad. Perhaps her last conscience is not to face each other? Even though she occasionally felt the urge to do so, she still controlled herself as best as she could.
“Ah, if possible, the girl will wash you later, so we can take a bath together…” …”
From Noble mtl dot com
“… “I will do that alone.”
This situation became even worse when the two women and Seol-yeon came face to face.
It wasn’t really any harm or gossip. Neither of them had the personality to do that, and the other person was a guest in the first place.
Instead, they showed strange behavior, such as being strangely wary or showing off their unnatural friendliness. In the process, Ha Yu-ran even stuttered her words. It’s an added bonus that she was so embarrassed that her face turned bright red.
Siwoo wasn’t stupid enough to not know what this trend meant, but it was true that there was no other solution. There may be no problem with the times, and there were many cases where Si-woo just gave up everything and dated several women, but doesn’t anyone look at Si-woo now and his structure seems strange?
Since the name of the Pyo-guk signboard needs to be changed to Cheonga-pyoguk, there will be rumors that the female Pyo-sa are Si-woo’s mistresses or playthings, so if they start dating seriously, the appearance from the outside will be undesirable in many ways.
However, even though Si-woo tried to lead in his own way, his true nature was not hidden, so Seol-yeon watched from the side and muttered a few words quietly.
“It is said that Shinseon is extremely revealing to women, and it is indeed true to the rumor.” ＜Br＞
“… “Is that sarcastic?”
“No way.”
Si-woo touched his forehead as he saw Seol-yeon speaking in a tone that did not contain any sincerity.
Despite being expressionless and cold, she seemed to have a hint of mischief, and enjoyed slandering Si-woo by listening to various rumors about her.
In a way, she also had a very strong heart. If Si-Woo is truly a immortal, she could have her head blown off in a moment of change of mind, but she offers it with such audacity.
I couldn’t tell if it was because Si-woo’s personality seemed really good or because the idea that Si-woo was a immortal was fading away. Siwoo still thought it was the latter, and she thought that this was a process in which her illusions were gradually being corrected.
Without knowing that an incident that would put a wedge in that illusion would soon occur.
*
It had already been a month since Bingseolyeon stayed as a guest. Yu-ran secretly called Si-woo, and she told him her itinerary.
“They say they want to transport a very valuable item from Jinju this time.”
“If it is very valuable, how much is it?”
“I had to risk my fortune to win the order.”
“Huh…”
Ha Gapyo-guk was credited with finding the former heir who fled during the Taesan incident, and has established a fairly close relationship with the Jinju Eon family.
And the fruit of that relationship came today. At the moment when the greatest power is at hand.
“Then again, it would be better for you and me to go alone.”
It may have been a small act, but in this important act, the third-rate warriors were actually a hindrance. The enemy who tries to steal this much of the target must be a first-class expert or someone close to it, and a third-rate warrior is not the least bit effective against such a person.
On the contrary, they only increase their workload by setting different watch times and adjusting food rations every day, and they can’t keep up with Seol-yeon and Si-woo’s speed, so it’s hard to tell whether this is a sign or a sign.
Also, there is no way to say that there will be enemies outside to steal the goods in the first place. In the end, life is just a mayfly. In every country, there were soldiers who, blinded by the wealth in front of them, betrayed their country, stole the goods, and ran away. Even though Yu-ran and Si-woo were good at filtering out such people because of their keen sense, they were not in a position to trust them with peace of mind.
Therefore, it was a reasonable plan for Si-woo and the guest to go alone, but Yu-ran furrowed his brow as if something did not suit him.
“Are you two going alone again? …”
Si-Woo smiled with a look in his eyes that said, “I have no other thoughts,” But Yu-Ran’s gaze became sharper. A long-term journey together, just the two of you, belonging to the North Sea Ice Palace, where customs and customs are much more open than those of the Central Plains? In Yuran’s opinion, it was more difficult to prevent something from happening. After all, isn’t she a pretty man and a good woman?
However, it was true that she had no choice but to send, so Yu-ran finished her meaningless musings, sighed, and handed over one of her maps.
“Yes, she knows how to do that and she has planned the route in advance. “This is the route we have planned to transport her in the safest way, so please familiarize yourself with it in advance and travel without any injuries or fights.”
Upon hearing those words, Siwoo felt something strange and looked down at the map.
It was indeed a route where there would be no battle. Even in the Taehang Mountains, the road passes only areas that are not green forests. In return, they had to climb up and down cliffs and cross mountains, but it was not difficult for Seol-yeon and Si-woo.
Siwoo asked after fully reading and interpreting his map.
“I understood everything. But the green forest“Is there any reason to avoid it?”
Pyo Guk’s biggest enemy is Nokrim, but that’s only when the client is ordinary. It is already famous that Noklim is in collusion with several families, and the Taehang Mountains in particular are the front yard of Jinju House. Therefore, if you have the name of Jinju Eonga, there is no need to avoid the area of green forest.
This was also done in most large countries. By borrowing the power of the Sega through bribes and personal connections, they can freely cross the territory of the green forest. It’s literally an escort service.
But Yuran shook his head.
“That is only possible when transporting specialty products or luxury items. In the end, Nokrim are thugs who enrich themselves by extorting other people’s wealth. “Can you completely trust them when there is a treasure in front of you that is prized even by a prominent family?”
“… Okay. Understand.”
“Okay. Moreover, not all the green forests in the Taehang Mountains belong to the Jinju Eon family, and it is especially unacceptable to fight with such people. “No matter what kind of greenery you have, you won’t even notice it for a second, but isn’t it the duty of serving guests to make them fight and kill?”
Si-Woo’s quick explanation and serious attitude were not for someone who takes things lightly, so Si-Woo suppressed the slight suspicion he was about to have.
I wondered if they had deliberately chosen only this type of terrain so that there would be no time to think about anything else, but when I think about it from the beginning, Yuran was not the type of person to mess around in this area.
When Siwoo was convinced, Yuran puffed out his cheeks and got upset for no reason.
“If you’re with a pretty woman, you can overcome difficult terrain with joy, right? “This trip will be treated as a vacation, and you will be asked to work immediately upon your return, so please understand.”
Even if he said that, Siwoo knew that organizational rules were strict, so he just laughed it off.
I wasn’t particularly worried. From the beginning, isn’t there a snow performance that rivals that of a top-notch expert? Playing with cheats and thinking about losing is something only a fool would do.
However, Yu-ran and Si-woo could not guess.
There are many people in the green forest who have learned martial arts and can climb over cliffs.
The fact that it is not a green forest area is not simply due to the rough road.
