Reaper of the Drifting Moon

Episode 533

Namgungseol’s beautiful army frowned.

“What do you mean?”

“The Great Lord is after them.”

“Are they the lovers I told you to secretly pursue?”

“That’s right.”

“why?”

“yes?”

“There will be no reason. Surely they’re not chasing you without any reason or evidence?”

“We haven’t figured out why yet.”

Namgoong Seol bit his lip gently at the subordinate’s answer.

It was certainly true that the lover whom she had ordered to be watched was suspicious. But even so, attacking them without any evidence could cause serious problems.

Namgungseol approached the window.

The figure of Dochang, shrouded in darkness, came into his eyes.

In the past, even at this time, the street lights came on brightly. However, after the Great War broke out, the streets were deserted and many lights disappeared.

The streets engulfed in darkness made even the hearts of the beholders feel stuffy.

I had to decide now.

Either pull An Ji-san and Seolhwa Swords back, or drive the momentum and catch the two.

Any choice was a burden to her.

If there were no problems with her lover, she too would have to shoulder a huge burden.

It is because there is no way that Namgungwol or thousands of episodes of her wrong choice will be left unattended. Conversely, if you find evidence that the lover you are tracking is really suspicious or related to something else, her ability will be recognized once again.

“Anyway, it’s too late to defeat Seolhwa Swordsman.”

If you order a retreat now, you will lose An Ji-san’s face. Like it or not, he was a man who followed him.

If I didn’t respect the honor of such a man, I could have lost my heart.

Namgungseol gave orders to his subordinates.

“Put in all the rest of the Sulwha Swords. Now that this has happened, we must secure them.”

“All right.”

“Go first. I’ll follow you in a little while.”

“yes!”

The subordinate ran out with an answer.

Namgungseol also prepared.

After changing into a military uniform, I put the sword hanging on the wall around my waist.

“after!”

She sighed for a moment and then went outside.

＊＊＊

“What do you mean by that?”

“Namgoongseol Sojeo’s movements are unusual.”

“Are you my sister?”

Namgoongwol’s expression became serious at the subordinate’s reply.

Namgungseol was like a thorn in the eye.

She did not leave Poyang Lake even after the Gangho War, but instead settled down in Dochang and watched the situation closely.

Namgungwol was well aware of how great Namgungseol’s ambition was.

She was thinking of taking over the union association and handing it over to Lee Geom-han.

Fortunately, her intentions hadn’t worked so far, but she didn’t know what would happen in the future if left unattended. So he sent someone to Namgungseol to monitor his activities.

Thanks to that, I was able to immediately catch Namgungseol camp showing a different movement than usual.

“Have you figured out the cause?”

“I hadn’t figured it out until now. sorry.”

“no.”

Namgungwol shook his head and thought for a moment.

‘Judging by her older sister’s personality, she probably wouldn’t have moved on trivial matters.’

Namgung Wol was the one who knew best how ambitious Namgung Seol was and how tenacious he was.

I don’t know why Namgungseol is moving, but if things go according to her will, an unpredictable situation could have happened.

“Which organization currently has no mission?”

“The Mangeomdae is resting.”

“Tell the Mangeomdaelord. I’m telling you to figure out Dochang’s situation and respond.”

“Is it a response? Sojeo Namgungseol is still your older sister?”

“yes! Respond.”

Namgungwol answered without hesitation.

It is true that Namgungseol was related by blood, but now they were enemies.

Moreover, she intended to dedicate the Union Reunion to her lover Lee Geom-han.

At this point, he had to let her know that he was watching her. Only then will she notice a little bit.

“What level of response is there?”

“I will leave it to the discretion of the Mangeomdaelord.”

“Mmm! All right.”

Subha made a surprised expression.

Mangeomdaeju was famous for being cruel in his hands.

If judged as an enemy, they were feared by using their hands without any mercy.

Leaving it to the discretion of Mangeom Daeju meant, in effect, that he was willing to clash with Namgungseol.

Knowing that Namgungwol’s will was firm, he had to hurry up and convey the order to Mangeomdaeju.

After Namgungwol took a siege, the subordinate hurriedly went outside.

Left alone, Namgungwol opened the window wide and looked out.

A cold wind blew and caressed his face.

“sister!”

＊＊＊

Boom!

“Keck!”

Along with the heavy drinking, one of the soldiers of the Sulwha Sword Corps tumbled across the floor. His side was hollowed out.

Doyeonsan’s blow was devastating.

Three or four ribs were broken, piercing the lungs.

Mu-in could not breathe properly, and his complexion turned white.

“Shit!”

An unmanned colleague came running.

In the meantime, Do Yeon-san and Eun-yo ran out of the street.

He has already defeated dozens of unmanned soldiers. Even so, the momentum of the Sulwha Sword Corps did not diminish at all.

Seolhwa Swordsman rushed at the two as if they were enemies of life and death.

Eun-yo said to Do Yeon-san.

“If you continue like this, you will definitely be caught.”

If he had simply pursued the Seolhwa Sword Belt, it would have been shaken off immediately. However, at some point, other warriors were seen on the streets besides Sulwha Swordsman.

I wasn’t sure which side they were on yet, but I could sense that they were also looking for opportunities.

They didn’t know if their target was themselves or Seolhwa Swordsman. However, they made it more difficult to distinguish between peers.

The situation got entangled like a wild horse.

Resolving this situation was never easy.

“If you struggle to get out, you will fall into a deep swamp.”

“So what?”

“I think it would be better to hide in the depths of the window.”

“You want to hide in the middle of enemy lines?”

“If it’s this much of a commotion, there’s a good chance that Haomen also grasped the situation.”

“hmm!”

“If it’s Dae-joo Hong, he’ll soon notice that we’re in danger and call his brother.”

“So you want to hide until help comes?”

“huh!”

“okay! Let’s do it. Where should I hide?”

“We have to find places they don’t expect at all.”

“Is there such a place?”

“I have a place in mind, but the question is whether I can get there.”

Sulwha swords and unidentified warriors were scattered all over the streets. It was impossible to move stealthily away from their eyes.

Even at this moment, unmanned people were being deployed all over the streets.

“There.”

At that time, the Sulwha Sword Corps soldier who found the two of them shouted loudly.

Another boring chase began.

＊＊＊

Pyo-wol sat on the bed and looked out the window.

A bright moon was visible through the wide open window.

It was a full moon.

The reddish full moon made the viewer immersed in a strange feeling.

Pyowol was no exception.

He stared at the red moon as if he were mesmerized.

Then, a white hand appeared from behind his back and gently hugged his waist.

“What are you looking at?”

The woman whispering behind her back with a languid voice was Hong Ye-seol.

Pyowol silently pointed at the red moon. Hong Ye-seol also looked out the window with a smile on his face.

It was then.

Squeak!

Something came through the window and approached Pyowol.

Even if it wasn’t so, the red body shone more dazzlingly in the moonlight.

It was Gwiah who approached Pyowol as if he was slipping.

Meanwhile, the ear grew bigger.

It is much longer and the circumference is noticeably larger.

The biggest change of all was the two horns on its head.

The bigger and more splendid horns were so beautiful that they seemed to steal the hearts of the beholders.

“ah!”

Hong Ye-seol was also stunned and looked at Guia.

A creature called a snake has been an object of hatred and fear since ancient times.

A smooth torso without a single leg, inorganic eyes that do not contain any emotions, and a red tongue that flicks incessantly.

There was nothing that didn’t make people hate it.

Because of that, people instinctively fear snakes and distanced themselves from them. That was the reaction of the common people.

However, Hong Ye-seol was far from an ordinary person.

She had nerves and sensibilities different from those of ordinary people.

The moment he saw Guia, Hong Ye-seol fell in love.

It was the first time to see such a beautiful and ecstatic creature.

Hong Ye-seol held out his pure white hand to Gwi-ah without realizing it. However, Guia indifferently passed her hand and climbed Pyowol’s arm.

“Oh, how beautiful!”

Hong Ye-seol burst into exclamation at the sight of Gwi-ah gliding up on Pyo-wol’s arm.

Hong Ye-seol asked Pyo-wol.

“What is this child?”

“Gear!”

“It is a fitting name. It fits really well. May I touch it?”

Pyowol nodded, and Hong Ye-seol carefully reached out his hand again. Guia did not avoid Hong Ye-seol’s touch this time.

A light of joy appeared on Hong Ye-seol’s face as he touched the red scales of Guia. The contrasting sensations, soft and hard, shuddered her.

It was the first time I felt this way.

Hong Ye-seol asked.

“When did you meet this child? Since when have you been taking him?”

This was not the first time she had seen Guia. But at that time, it was Pyowol’s time to treat his injuries, so he couldn’t ask properly.

Only a few people knew that Pyo-Wol was taking Gwi-A with him. Hong Ye-seol is now included in it.

That also meant that Hong Ye-seol was included as one of the people Pyo-wol could trust.

In fact, after Baek Gwi-ryunju was taken away by Pyo-wol, Hong Ye-seol fell more deeply into him.

Now, life without the epitaph was unthinkable.

“It’s been quite a while since I took Guia with me.”

“But why didn’t I know?”

“As you can see, it’s a spirit creature.”

“Youngmul definitely seems like that. It’s like seeing a little dragon. If I grow up like this, will I become a dragon?”

“well!”

Pyolwol clouded the end of his speech.

He didn’t know if Guia would really ascend to heaven as a dragon.

After absorbing the spirit of the dragon dragon, Guia continued to change.

It was not even clear where this change would end.

It could just be stagnant in this state, or it could really shed its stance and be reborn as a completely new being.

Either way, there was no room for Pyowol to intervene, and he didn’t want to.

Just like himself, Gwia was also a living being with an ego, and his future was determined by himself.

Even if Gwi-ah became a completely different creature and left his side, Pyo-wol did not regret it at all.

Squeak!

Gwia used Pyowol’s fingers as a playground, and Hong Ye-seol was mesmerized by Gwia’s appearance.

Under the crimson moonlight, Guia’s red body shone even more magically.

It was then.

A cautious voice came from outside.

“Excellence!”

The owner of the voice was Salno.

“come in!”

“yes!”

After Pyowol’s permission was granted, Salno opened the door and entered.

Even seeing Pyo-wol and Hong Ye-seol in the same bed, Salno was not surprised or taken aback.

Pyowol asked.

“What is going on?”

“It seems that there is a problem with the children who went outside.”

“What about arithmetic?”

“Yes! We are still not coming back.”

“These are not children who will be late for no reason.”

The moon woke up from the bed.

Salno asked with a slightly surprised expression.

“Do you want to move yourself?”

Pyowol nodded his head without saying a word.
