“… uh, how… .”
I was astonished to see the two mothers and daughters suddenly popping out of the grass .
How did you come? Didn’t you say you two were fighting? Have you ever been reconciled? no way… , Did Kang Su-yeon even let you know ?
Numerous questions flashed through my mind within a few seconds, and I
was quite shocked to see my wife and Soyeon staring at Kang Soo-yeon with their eyes flashing as if they were going to kill them .
that moment .
My wife moved her gaze to me, and sighed in relief as if she had let go of an hour .
“… thank god… .”
I was so moved by her appearance, I got up in a hurry and approached them .
And the moment I carefully opened my mouth while hiding my embarrassment… .
“ Two, how about two people… .”
Warak—
Soyeon suddenly ran up to me and hugged me .
Ugh… .
“… Idiot… ! you were worried… !”
As if she was genuinely worried, she was angry .
“ So, Soyeon-ah… .”
I reflexively shrugged off Soyeon’s touch and rejected it, but she
didn’t care and asked me for my regards .
“… it’s okay? Are you sick anywhere ?”
I feel weird .
The biggest reason why I hid in the mountains in the first place is none other than Soyeon .
But that Soyeon is comforting me… .
I don’t know how to react to this .
Do I have to be furious about not doing this to a subject I forcibly committed, or should I be moved by the fact that they are still thinking of me ?
I feel like my brain is broken .
right then
“… ha .”
Soyeon, who was in her arms, let out a short sigh, hid me behind her back, and started to stare at Kang Soo-yeon .
OK… .
Suck—
My wife, who came close to me, put her hand on me and whispered in a small whisper .
“… Are you okay ?”
A friendly voice that cuts into your ear .
It was a short word, but it was reliable enough to make me want to lean on it involuntarily .
but .
“… .”
I couldn’t lean on my wife too hastily .
A woman who, despite knowing everything, regards her daughter as a competitor .
Could she not have noticed the feelings that Kang Su-yeon had ?
My wife has repeatedly stressed that there should be no secrets between the couple .
But if she was really hiding something… .
I thought my wife would be very disappointed .
“… .”
At the time when I was confronted with Kang Su-yeon, sandwiched between the two of them .
Kang Su-yeon approached them with a natural-looking face and greeted them .
“ It’s a bit sudden, but… . Welcome .”
Then .
“… ha .”
“… Heh .”
The two began to snort and stare at Kang Su-yeon .
An enemy that is clearly felt even when you are not a party to it .
Awakened by that sharp sense, I quickly shook off the touch of the two mothers and daughters, and defended Kang Su-yeon, who had taken care of her with sincerity .
“… The two of you seem to be misunderstanding something… , there’s nothing wrong with St. He is the one who helped me .”
Then Kang Su-yeon gave a faint smile and satisfied eyes, and at the
same time, my wife and So-yeon turned their arrows towards me .
“… you… .”
Soyeon looks at something with dissatisfied eyes .
“… Huh… .”
And the wife who calms her expression and sends her gaze .
Ugh… .
I was slightly nervous at the reaction of the two people who were sharper than I thought, and I swallowed saliva .
“ Wait a minute! Why are you doing this to the tenant? You better do it to me !”
Kang Su-yeon approached me and stood up for me .
Jitter-
The gaze of the three colliding .
“み… .”
Feeling extremely stressed by the bloody hostility that weighed on my skin, I shut my eyes tightly— and intervened between the three of them .
“ Come on, wait !!!”
their pouring eyes .
I exclaimed with earnestness .
“ Everyone, stop… !please… . please… .”
Maybe my earnestness worked, and then they stopped fighting with their gaze away . Unable to endure this suffocating situation, I told them that I needed some time and ran away into the cave
.

Yoo Ji-hwan
while disappearing into the cave .
A heavy life fell between the three remaining people .
“… Kang Soo-yeon… . Do you dare betray me ?”
Jooyeon-hee, taking advantage of her husband’s disappearance, blows away the life she has endured .
After being hit in the back of the head, she wanted to pull out a knife and tear Kang Soo-yeon to pieces, but she could n’t rush, just staring at her as if she wanted to kill her
.
OK… .
Kang Su-yeon, who finally received Yoo Ji-hwan’s protection after careful gaslighting, leisurely shrugged her shoulders and scoffed .
“ Uh, isn’t that a betrayal? I haven’t done anything ‘yet’? I know… , both of them should have done it in moderation. How hard would it have been for our tenant to run away ?”
“… What ?”
Min So-yeon glared at Kang Su-yeon as if she was dissatisfied, and Kang
Soo-yeon stimulated the mother and daughter with a smile, wondering if it was this time .
“ I say this when the opportunity comes… , I don’t think our tenant is a man who can handle it alone. Even if you didn’t try to take over in the first place, it wouldn’t happen, right? How great it is to share with everyone !”
“… A dog year… .”
Jooyeon-hee quietly grinds her teeth, deeply regretting not killing before .
Meanwhile, Min So-yeon responded to the word to share and gave a soft warning .
“… Jihwan was originally my man. Don’t touch me .”
Then, Kang Su-yeon shook her head as if she liked it , and said ,
“ What… , Anyway, it’s late today, are you all going to sleep? My room is a bit spacious, shall we all sleep together ?”
Naturally, he led the atmosphere and continued the next operation .
by name… , ‘Operation for the inauguration of the wife’ .
Of course .
“… I hate it .”
“… turn it off .”
Both mother and daughter had no intention of accepting it .

Same time .
At the headquarters of the Old Church… .
Loud roar—
High-ranking executives gathered and had an emergency meeting about the ‘The Handmaiden’ who suddenly disappeared .
“ When is the lady coming ?”
“ There have been no instructions for a few days now… .”
“ I don’t know if something happened or not .”
“ Sup… , be careful .”
How long has it been since they continued their hopeless wait ?
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Quietly –One side of the conference hall began to open .
and… . Tto-
Gak- To-
Gak- The
clear sound of shoes echoing in the conference hall .
Those who thought that the ‘handmaiden’ had finally appeared, held their breath and quickly shook their heads, and the owner of the toga-to-to –
gak-
shoes crossed the conference hall and sat at the top .
“… .”
Her pink hair was slightly exposed between the white clothes and the veil she wore .
‘ Lady’ spoke softly, looking around at the people gathered in the conference hall .
“ Raise your head… .”
Then the people slowly raised their heads and looked at the woman sitting at the top with careful eyes .
“… .”
The executives gathered at the conference hall were people who had frequent contact with craft papers .
However… .
Not a single person doubted the identity of the ‘The Handmaiden’, and everyone had their loyal eyes waiting for the ‘Girl”s instructions as if it was natural .
And after a while .
‘ Lady’ said solemnly to them .
“ The oracle has come down… .”
that moment .
Loud wobbles —The former
church officials began to respond that they did not understand .
“… trust ?”
“ It’s a trust… , what the… .”
The Old Church is a pseudo-religion .
Unlike the believers, the executives knew exactly that fact, and they believed in the power and power of the Old Church rather than faith .
But now you’re an oracle ?
“… .”
People looked at ‘The Handmaiden’ and waited for the next word, and
she began to spread the darkness without hesitation to strengthen her words .
Smully…
“… hey, what is this… !”
“ Oh, lady, what the hell is this… ?”
Confused people .
They were embarrassed to look at the thick darkness on the floor, and the
‘ lady’ started to ‘persuade’ the executives regardless of their reaction .
“ God has spoken… . The time of judgment has come… . You said you must save me… .”
‘ Relief’ .
It is the doctrine of the Old Church, and it is a word with a double meaning .
On the surface, it is used to mean helping people in misery or suffering, but… .
“… In accordance with the will of heaven, we must ‘exterminate’ every single pest that disturbs society… .”
It also contains the meaning of catching and eliminating parasites and pests .
Loud roar —The
executives internally protested .
At the most, the old school had been raised in the sun, because there was no reason to cause a coup d’etat .
No matter what the will of Heaven or what, I thought it was an unnecessary act .
However… .
Among the disgruntled people, not a single one expressed their dissatisfaction . The
darkness that had spread on the floor rose to the waist ,
and the power contained within it had a different level of strength than the ‘The Handmaiden’ had seen before .
“ Bah, I will definitely do it… !”
“ Mi, believe me! I’m sure you can do it !”
Little by little, people watched their eyes and carefully expressed their will of agreement, and with a loud roar—in the end
,
everyone expressed their intention to obey the will of heaven .
Then .
Smully…
The darkness that had submerged even the lower body began to gradually disappear , and Hyesun Gong ,
‘ Lady’, gave a cold warning with a satisfied smile .
“… Everyone, be careful not to become a ‘pest’… .”
A blatant warning that you will not forgive if you betray .
