37.
Seol Mujin spoke to end this situation.
“Ryeoseon, we have things to do.”
Seol Ryeoseon said.
“Got it.”
Hwangbo Ryeoseon said.
“What kind of work are we doing?”
Sang Chiyeon asked.
“What’s this about having work to do with our Young Lady?”
Seol Mujin awkwardly pointed at Seol Ryeoseon.
“My sister’s name is also Ryeoseon. Seol Ryeoseon.”
Sang Chiyeon nodded his head.
“So that’s why you dislike our Young Lady.”
Hwangbo Ryeoseon asked Sang Chiyeon.
“Is having the same name a reason to dislike someone?”
“I heard there are women who hate each other just for wearing the same clothes.”
“Women, really.”
You’re women too though.
Hwangbo Ryeoseon stood up and said to Seol Mujin.
“Whether it’s a favor or a grudge, it must be repaid, so tell me if you want anything.”
“It’s fine.”
“I’m not fine. Like constipated poop that won’t come out.”
“Pfft!”
Seol Mantong burst into laughter.
“I like that Young Lady!”
Hwangbo Ryeoseon left Seol Mujin with the words ‘Think about what you want’ and disappeared.
Shortly after, Yeon Gok came saying the patient had disappeared, and after hearing they had been here, he grumbled and went back.
And so the time that Bae Hyeonjin had invited them arrived.
Yeon Gok, who returned after finishing treatment, looked like a cow being dragged to the slaughterhouse.
“There’s really no danger at all, right?”
“Don’t you trust us?”
At Seol Mantong’s question, Yeon Gok waved his hands dismissively.
“How could that be? I’m just a little worried.”
The most dangerous thing for Yeon Gok was upsetting the Triplets.
Seol Mujin said.
“I was going to just give the Family Head’s wife medicine and leave, but I should be there too.”
The Triplets felt a pang of guilt.
“Why? There’s nothing for you to do even if you’re there, big brother.”
“Still, I can’t just leave you guys in a dangerous place.”
“What’s there to be dangerous about?”
Seol Changho said.
“Then how about keeping watch outside?”
“It seems like you keep trying to send me out of the room. What are you scheming?”
“Sche… scheming? What do you mean. There’s nothing like that.”
“I’m the top detective of Jinan Government Office.”
“I said there’s nothing.”
The Triplets showed no signs of backing down.
“Fine. I’ll keep watch outside.”
Believing that while the Triplets might cause minor trouble, they wouldn’t make wrong decisions, Seol Mujin obediently withdrew.
Due to the assassination attempt, security at the Hwangbo Family Estate was tight.
Even so, there were no warriors stopping Seol Mujin’s group.
When they got close to Bae Hyeonjin’s Quarters, the Triplets disappeared with Yeon Gok.
A maid was waiting for Seol Mujin.
Following the maid, Seol Mujin calmed his mind.
Dropping a pill into someone else’s tea wouldn’t be difficult.
Even when he didn’t know martial arts, he could do it easily, so now he could do it as comfortably as breathing.
Upon entering the room, a subtle fragrance different from tea scent stimulated his sense of smell.
He remembered encountering this type of scent at Yeonji-ru.
It was a type of aphrodisiac that stimulated men, but this was much more intense than what he had experienced then.
Bae Hyeonjin, sitting in a chair, greeted Seol Mujin with a smiling face.
“Thank you for accepting my invitation.”
“Thank you for inviting me.”
“Please sit.”
Seol Mujin took his seat in the chair across from where Bae Hyeonjin pointed.
Bae Hyeonjin’s hands pouring tea were white and her nails were red, creating a strange contrast.
“The tea has a nice fragrance. Let me pour it for you.”
Not wanting to face Bae Hyeonjin for long, Seol Mujin put the drug in the first cup.
The drug mixed in the warm water disappeared without a trace like snow falling into a hot spring.
Bae Hyeonjin, who only moistened her lips with tea, asked.
“Do you like alcohol, Detective Seol?”
The first topic is alcohol?
“I don’t particularly enjoy it.”
He only occasionally had a cup of the Baekgokju that Seol Mantong made.
“I have some very precious Nü’er Hong Wine. Since you saved our children, I should naturally repay you.”
The value of Hwangbo Hyeonguk and Hwangbo Ryeoseon’s lives is just alcohol?
“If there’s an opportunity.”
Since there wouldn’t be a chance to drink together, he answered that way.
After drinking about half a cup of tea, Bae Hyeonjin fanned herself with her hand.
“Isn’t the room a bit hot?”
As she said this, she removed her outer garment.
Her white skin and smooth shoulder line didn’t belong to a forty-year-old.
Seol Mujin wasn’t particularly hot, but he couldn’t tell if Bae Hyeonjin removing her clothes claiming it was hot was to seduce him or due to the drug’s effects.
Something instinctive surged within Seol Mujin.
A male’s instinct.
It was definitely because of Bae Hyeonjin’s alluring aura and the fragrance spreading throughout the room.
He tried to dispel it with internal energy, but seeing no reaction at all, it wasn’t something that could be handled with internal energy.
Bae Hyeonjin, who was smiling at Seol Mujin with her eyes, showed no signs of collapsing.
“From what I hear, your martial arts are quite strong. What school are you from?”
Seol Mujin almost told her the truth.
Barely managing to close his mouth, he felt something was strange.
His breathing became rapid and Bae Hyeonjin began to blur.
‘Drugs!’
Just as he had put drugs in Bae Hyeonjin’s tea, there was no law saying she couldn’t do the same.
Seol Mujin tried to stand but felt the world spinning and collapsed onto the table.
Bae Hyeonjin’s voice reached him as if heard from underwater.
“It took quite a while. I thought the drug was defective.”
She approached Seol Mujin as his consciousness faded and stroked his face.
“It’s a shame since handsome men like this are rare.”
“Why…?”
Seol Mujin barely managed to ask that single word.
“It’s your fault for interfering in Hwangbo Family affairs. You were caught trying to assault me. How dare you try to assault the family head’s wife within the Hwangbo Family Estate. What do you think the consequences will be? Not only you, but the physician who came with you won’t escape death either.”
Just then, the window slid open smoothly and the triplets entered the room.
“This woman has concocted quite a devious scheme?”
Bae Hyeonjin turned around, startled by Seol Ryeoseon’s words.
“Who are you?”
“How dare you drug our older brother? You won’t die peacefully.”
“Oh my!”
Yeon Gok, who was climbing through the window, misplaced his arm and fell roughly.
Swoosh—!
A teacup flew toward Seol Ryeoseon while Yeon Gok was complaining about his aching back.
“Huh?”
Seol Ryeoseon caught the teacup flying toward her face.
“What? Didn’t you say you don’t know martial arts?”
Yeon Gok said while rubbing his aching back.
“No wonder the drug’s effects were slow.”
Bae Hyeonjin’s head snapped backward as she was picking up another teacup, then she collapsed like a dead tree.
Seol Changho frowned and covered his nose.
“Ugh, what is this vulgar smell?”
“Sniff sniff! It seems like aphrodisiac and sleeping drug are mixed together? It would be better to keep the windows open.”
There was no real problem since they could block the sound from leaving the room with internal energy.
When they had infiltrated, they observed that the security was also lax.
Since Bae Hyeonjin seemed to have blocked the guards’ access as well, there was no one to see through the windows either.
Yeon Gok, who had examined Seol Mujin’s condition, spoke.
“He’s just unconscious, so he’ll wake up in about an hour.”
“That’s actually better. Yeon Gok. Give me that.”
Just as Yeon Gok reached into the bag he had brought, the door suddenly creaked open.
No matter how distracted they had been, how could they not notice someone getting this close!
The woman who appeared to be in her late twenties also stopped abruptly upon seeing the scene inside the room.
A single name came from Seol Changho’s mouth.
“Illusion Enchantress.”
Seol Ryeoseon first looked at the woman’s legs.
A wooden carving was slightly visible beneath her skirt.
The Illusion Enchantress’s brow furrowed.
“Who are you?”
An ordinary maid would have screamed first, but seeing such a reaction, she was definitely the Illusion Enchantress.
Even if the opponent was the Illusion Enchantress, there was no way to prove that to others.
In other words, if a fight broke out here and caused a commotion, they would be the ones at a disadvantage.
Even if they blocked sound with internal energy, they couldn’t help walls breaking from the impact of battle.
Seol Changho’s hand reached Bae Hyeonjin’s neck.
“Shh! A loud noise might kill this woman.”
The Illusion Enchantress’s gaze moved busily.
Seol Mujin and Bae Hyeonjin were unconscious, and there were seven-year-old triplets with a physician who had come to treat poisoning.
No matter how clever she was, she couldn’t grasp this bizarre situation just by looking.
The Illusion Enchantress who had entered the room closed the door.
Her action of closing the door was unexpected.
She also seemed to not want sound to escape outside.
“Child, how do you know me?”
As Seol Mantong stealthily moved to block the Illusion Enchantress’s escape route, she spoke.
“Whether it’s a door or wall, it’s all the same if I want to break through.”
Her gaze settled on Seol Changho.
“I ask again. How do you know me?”
Seol Changho’s finger pointed at the Illusion Enchantress’s wooden carving.
“Because I’m the one who gave you that wooden carving as a gift.”
Seol Ryeoseon whispered.
“Is it okay to say that?”
The Illusion Enchantress’s expression twisted.
“What nonsense are you spouting? I made this myself… Wait.”
She stared intently at the triplets and shook her head from side to side.
“No, that can’t be.”
“It could be possible though?”
“Kids. Have you at least heard the name Demonic Sect?”
Seol Mantong spoke firmly.
“It’s Bright Cult.”
The Illusion Enchantress’s face twisted slightly.
“What do you mean Bright Cult. What about the Demonic Sect’s Samtaesang?”
Seol Changho pointed to himself, Seol Ryeoseon, and Seol Mantong in turn.
“Blue, Red, White.”
As the startled Illusion Enchantress stepped back, Seol Changho spoke.
“Your legs were cut by my flying sword. You can consider it an honor. You’re the first and last person to survive under my flying sword.”
“That can’t be… how… Rejuvenation Technique?”
When there was no answer, the Illusion Enchantress continued.
“But how did you become such young children… Rejuvenation Technique is supposed to return you to youth…”
Seol Changho cut off the Illusion Enchantress’s words.
“Have you ever seen a martial artist who used Rejuvenation Technique even once?”
“Well, no. But are you really the Demonic Sect’s Samtaesang?”
Yeon Gok said, “I can vouch for that.”
“Who…?”
“Hmph! I am Yeon Gok, commonly called the greatest under heaven.”
“Yeon Gok… the Black Robe of the Demonic Sect?”
“Damn! The label of Demonic Sect’s Black Robe just won’t come off.”
The Illusion Enchantress still shook her head with an expression of disbelief.
“The Samtaesang using Rejuvenation Technique is one thing, but even if that’s true, why are you at the Hwangbo Family Estate?”
“To tell that whole story would take three nights, and rather than talking about us, I’d like to hear your story. It’s strange for both us and you to be at the Hwangbo Family Estate.”
“Before that, let me ask one thing. Are you still the Demonic Sect’s Samtaesang?”
In their hearts, Bright Cult was still their home.
But if they were to speak of reality.
“Not anymore.”
“You’re not the Cult Leader’s dogs anymore?”
Seol Ryeoseon growled.
“We’re nobody’s dogs. Especially not the Cult Leader’s. That bastard will die someday with his heart ripped out by my hand.”
“Hearing you say that makes me even more curious about why you’re here.”
“You talk first.”
The Illusion Enchantress, who had been staring intently at the Samtaesang as if trying to discern the truth from their expressions, let out a deep sigh.
“I’m not here because I want to be either.”
“Doesn’t seem like it? You’re dreaming of a comeback by taking control of the Hwangbo Family Estate.”
“I don’t know how much you know, but that’s how it looks on the surface. You think I’m controlling the family head’s wife?”
“You’re planning to make the eldest son the family head and take control of the Hwangbo Family Estate.”
“It’s quite a plausible picture, except for the fact that I’m poisoned by love bugs.”
“What? You’re saying you’ve been poisoned?”
The Illusion Enchantress’s gaze fell upon Bae Hyeonjin.
“I’m not controlling that bitch—she’s been slowly devouring everything I have. Half of the Internal Energy I’ve accumulated over my lifetime has already been transferred to her.”
Now he could finally understand why Bae Hyeonjin had learned Martial Arts.
Seol Changho said.
“That doesn’t make sense. How could someone like Bae Hyeonjin poison you?”
“She’s not the one who poisoned me.”
“Then who did?”
“I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?”
“After being kidnapped, when I came to my senses, I had become a piece on someone’s chess board.”
“You’re just a piece that knows nothing?”
“All I know is that someone is trying to devour the Hwangbo Family.”
The Illusion Enchantress’s gaze toward Bae Hyeonjin was filled with resentment.
“Because of this damn Love Bug, I can neither kill her nor escape.”
