47.

 

No matter how skilled in Hwa Gyeong they are, those who remain in the early stages don’t have perfect protective energy.

 

The energy that wraps around the entire body to make a warrior impervious to ten thousand blades can only be barely completed at the late stage of Hwa Gyeong.

 

The man’s body, injected with deadly poison through his cervical vertebrae, swelled up in an instant. The blood vessels throughout his body turned purple and became grotesquely bulging. His eyes became bloodshot.

 

“These damn brats!”

 

He must have already been struggling to detoxify the poison fog from the very beginning.

 

Naturally, his speed and strength had to be lower than usual. Filled with rage, he shouted in a booming voice.

 

“I’ll definitely kill you!”

 

“Lady Peng!”

 

Dangsoso’s scream burst out.

 

For someone who never raised her voice normally, this was quite rare. I widened my eyes seeing the blade approaching while I was lying down empty-handed. I had one spare dagger in my bosom.

 

The calculation was made in an instant.

 

Flesh-cutting bone-breaking.

 

Give up bone to take flesh.

 

“Kuk!”

 

I extended my left arm wrapped in layers upon layers of energy barriers. Though I had stacked dozens of layers, it wasn’t enough to match a blade wrapped in strong energy. The blade pierced through my forearm beyond the instantly shattered energy barriers.

 

At the same time, I thrust a dagger condensed with demonic energy into the careless man’s heart.

 

“Huh…!”

 

It wouldn’t go in easily.

 

In that instant, cold sweat flowed down my back profusely. My left forearm hurt as if being burned by fire. I panted and somehow, to the very end, pushed the dagger toward his beating heart.

 

Then at some moment, lightning-like electricity flowed through the opened gap.

 

“Kuh, huk! This, Ma, Makyō…!”

 

He who had been resisting by moving the muscles near his heart suddenly writhed and died. I turned the dagger stuck in his heart once and pulled it out, then stuck my hand inside.

 

His heart was completely shattered, turned into electric barbecue. Since some Sapa warriors occasionally revive and cause trouble, I crushed his heart with my hand filled with demonic energy and cut his throat as well.

 

Then if I smash his head…

 

“Ah.”

 

Crack.

 

Dangsoso, who understood my thoughts, stepped on and split the skull of the dead man. All that remained was facial skin that could identify him.

 

I raised my right hand and gave Dangsoso a thumbs up.

 

“As expected, my companion Gangsi! -Ugh.”

 

My upper arm was grabbed in an instant.

 

The cut was clearly much lower, but my head spun from just a slight shock. As I groaned, Dangsoso muttered with a completely hardened face.

 

“Don’t, move.”

 

Her tone was much colder than usual.

 

Not knowing what to do, she fumbled for a moment then soon rolled up my sleeve.

 

“Wow. This robe is tough.”

 

I was somewhat impressed.

 

If it had been ordinary clothes, they would have become rags long ago, but the blue robe Ju Sohui gave me was mysteriously only bloodstained but not greatly damaged.

 

“If it had been other clothes, you would have become a one-armed swordsman.”

 

“Hik.”

 

That’s really scary.

 

I grabbed Dangsoso’s sleeve with my intact right arm and whined.

 

“Soso, I’m really scared. You can fix my arm, right? Huhuhu.”

 

“You could have used a slightly safer method. If you had dodged once more and waited for an opportunity-”

 

“Huh? What are you talking about?”

 

Dangsoso, whose words were cut off, makes eye contact with me.

 

“Then I couldn’t kill him for sure, right?”

 

Even if poisoned, there’s a vast wall between Hwa Gyeong who can use sword energy and Chojejung.

 

The initial poison fog.

 

Dangsoso’s poison needle.

 

My dagger.

 

If even one of the three surprise attacks had failed, it would have been me whose heart burst and neck was cut.

 

“Having my forearm cut off is better than dying!”

 

It wasn’t even completely cut off.

 

It was only half cut, right?

 

A completely lucky situation.

 

“…”

 

Dangsoso looked at me with a somewhat stunned expression. I don’t really know why she’s making that face.

 

As I tilted my head, suddenly a fist was placed on top of my head.

 

“? What are you doing?”

 

“I want to hit you.”

 

“What! I’m a patient!”

 

“That’s why I’m holding back.”

 

Having said that, Dangsoso stared down at me for a while, then soon picked up the corpse and roughly moved it aside.

 

There was no need to carefully conceal it.

 

This is the front yard of Huashan.

 

If the sect leader of Huashan Sect knows Ju Sohui, he wouldn’t hold me, her certain daughter, responsible.

 

Especially if the opponent was some Sapa scum rather than an Orthodox Faction hero.

 

Wow! Orthodox mom is the best!

 

Long live connection culture!

 

“Give me your arm.”

 

“Huhu, Soso. It hurts.”

 

“…”

 

Dangsoso silently took out wound medicine and gave first aid while listening to my constant whining.

 

I was impressed by her skilled touch.

 

“Where did you learn this? You don’t need to learn it since you’re a Gangsi, right?”

 

“Yes, I don’t need it.”

 

“Hyuk!”

 

Craaack.

 

A scream came out naturally as pressure was applied to my already trembling forearm.

 

…Of course, stopping the bleeding is essential before dying from excessive blood loss!

 

Unable to move the arm being treated, I could only stomp my innocent legs.

 

“You’re being restless.”

 

“That’s too much!”

 

Eventually, with even my thighs suppressed by Dangsoso’s foot, I could only twitch earnestly. No, this, it hurts so much that my waist keeps jerking.

 

If someone asks why I’m making such a fuss over a cut arm in front of a corpse, I’d have nothing to say.

 

“Next time.”

 

As I was sneakily watching her reaction, Dangsoso said with cold eyes.

 

“Just use me.”

 

“Huh? For what?”

 

“I can regenerate even if broken, and I don’t feel pain either.”

 

Rustle.

 

Cold and delicate hands firmly fixed my arm along with a splint.

 

She tied the knots tightly so they wouldn’t come loose and held my arm.

 

“It’s called substituting plum for peach.”

 

What came out of her mouth was exactly the same thought I had just moments ago.

 

Substituting plum for peach.

 

Meaning the plum tree falls in place of the peach tree, it’s the eleventh stratagem of the thirty-six stratagems of war, using small losses to aim for great victory.

 

“Fighting inevitably involves losses, so it’s right to accept partial losses and take overall benefits.”

 

“…”

 

“Isn’t it more reasonable for me, who’s dead, to get damaged rather than Lady Peng, who’s alive, getting hurt?”

 

I looked at Dangsoso while lost in deep thought.

 

She had her usual indifferent expression as if it was nothing special. Her sharply raised eye corners blinked with a somewhat cold look.

 

We stared at each other like that for a moment.

 

“That makes sense too!”

 

I smiled brightly.

 

“Let’s do it that way from now on.”

 

“Yes.”

 

Dangsoso also returned a faint smile.

 

It was a barely visible, subtle smile, but considering her usual expression, it was quite a significant change.

 

I took this opportunity to make a suggestion.

 

“But Soso.”

 

“Yes.”

 

“How about you start speaking more casually to me? Instead of Lady Peng, try calling me something more affectionate like ‘sister~’. Hm? Hm?”

 

Though Mom and I were a perfect family, an only child girl naturally has fantasies about having sisters.

 

My eyes sparkled at the thought of having a cute younger sister through this opportunity.

 

However.

 

“I don’t want to.”

 

“Whiiine.”

 

“No. Please don’t make me.”

 

What came back was a cold rejection.

 

I don’t want to. No. Please don’t make me.

 

Looking at Dangsoso who had taken a step back with those familiar words I found in my memory, I clicked my tongue.

 

“Meanie.”

 

Someday I’ll make Dangsoso call me sister.

 

Definitely.

 

* * *

 

The next day.

 

“Owwwwww.”

 

I faced a painful and difficult morning.

 

Having used up a lot of my internal energy last night, plus my wound area seemed infected, my whole body was burning with fever.

 

“Huh? It’s Mom. Mom.”

 

In the midst of my pain, Mom’s face was floating around on the ceiling.

 

As I looked up at the sky and smiled weakly, a cold hand touched my forehead.

 

“Mommy, it’s been so long. Hehe…”

 

Some people say it’s pathetic to call for Mom at this age, but that’s not true.

 

Even twenty-nine-year-olds need their mom.

 

Even twenty-nine-year-olds miss their mom when they’re sick in a foreign place!

 

And right now I’m seventeen anyway!

 

“Peng— you can’t sleep—————.”

 

After hearing something like a hallucination, I repeatedly lost consciousness and woke up.

 

When I finally came to my senses, I was in some room.

 

The air was definitely warm and the blanket was thick, but I felt like I was holding a cool ice pack. Thanks to that, my fever had completely subsided and my whole body felt refreshed.

 

“Mmm.”

 

As I groaned and stirred, I saw my companion Gangsi’s face.

 

“Soso?”

 

“Ah.”

 

Dangsoso, hearing me call her name, let out a low exclamation.

 

“It took two weeks.”

 

“Huh?”

 

“You woke up after two weeks.”
