5 – Episode 5 Cross-dressing Girl.

1.

Namgung-sega who is both the head of the family and the Dragon Sword. Namgung-sa-ya.

Whenever she comes down to the village, the bachelors in the village never leave their homes.

If there’s someone I like, I take them with my strength— that’s the method of Namgoong Saya. Completely different from Seondae’s method. Sometimes clear like a sky without a single cloud, sometimes wild like angry lightning. When sad, like deep, heavy clouds. On the other hand, Namgoong Saya is different. She didn’t perceive nature as a father embracing the sky, but as an emperor. A tyrant, at that. She is not satisfied with the title of Sword of Naulim. She will certainly acquire the title of Heavenly Monarch. She was already past her prime, but she thought firmly. The high, tall Taebaek mountain. Namgoong Saya spread a blanket, playing with the swallows. “Bring them both,” she said. “Step by step. …?” I heard footsteps. Is someone outside? The logs are crackling. “Yeon-ha?” “Hm…” “Who is it?” “Thunk!” Someone gripped my neck. “What the…?” “Wow, you’re really beautiful. Are you a real fairy?” “Thump!” Unlike the invisible sight, my senses felt all around me. I tried to use force to remove the hand from my neck, but it was useless. The arm was strong enough to hold me. “Hey, hey, hey. You know what happens if you touch the man of Saya-nim first.” “Kimi-sanggung. Kimi-sanggung. (unclear)” “I don’t know, damn it.” Intrusion? But what does the name Saya… Namgoong Saya? Isn’t that the name of the Sword of Naulim?

“Haa… haa… I didn’t intend for this to happen… You make me want to devour you even if it means risking my life.”

The feeling of someone invisible choking my neck was a tremendous terror. It was even scarier knowing that there was no escape, and struggling was futile.

*Gasping.*

I pressed three key points on my body.

I pressed the acupoint to control blood flow and alleviate pain, and barely managed to press the acupoint related to heightened senses.

Lastly, I had to press the area between my throat and chest to instantly make my body stronger, but Muloe-bae, who sensed suspicion, climbed up on me.

“Look at this guy. What is he doing?”

“Oh…ugh…!”

“Eunho!”

“You son of a…!”

*Squelch…! Pfft!*

Namyung Yeonha pushed away the woman who was on top of me and seemed to have defeated the one who wanted to harm me.

*Cough…! Cough!*

She raised me up with trembling hands.

“What… what is this…”

“Ugh…”

“Are you alright? What’s up with those b*tches?!”

I grabbed Yeonha’s trembling shoulders like a cherry blossom tree shaking in the wind.

And then, I smiled.

“There’s no need to be so afraid.”

“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry… I didn’t mean to interrupt your firewood gathering.”

After that, a sigh mixed with anger came from Yeonha’s mouth.

“These trash-like women… How dare they think they can touch my benefactor?!”

Yeonha gripped the woman who tried to intimidate me by her collar. I could sense it as I pressed the acupoint.

“If only I can sacrifice my life, I’ll tell you everything!”

However, the fact that the disguised woman took pity and reluctantly spoke made Namyung Yeonha hurt.

“Mother. You really…”

“P-Please save me!”

*Woosh…!*

I was a bit surprised. I didn’t expect to kill her right here…

I wonder if it’s because I can’t see. Though the putrid smell made me a little queasy, I managed to endure it.

She said to me in a trembling voice.

“We… we need to run away.”

“What?”

“M.. My mother… Namgung Sage is after the Brain Dragon Sword.”

Throughout the past week, I felt something during my conversations with her.

She took pride in being Namgung Sage, but there was one person she feared greatly: her adoptive mother, Namgung Sa-ya.

Although she seemed reluctant to admit it to herself, it showed.

The companion I was originally supposed to meet turned out to be a pitiful young woman who had died as an unfortunate victim of acupuncture points manipulation. She appeared fragile, even while gazing at the setting sun in a way that could make one feel sorry for her.

“Young Lady.”

Hence, I gently caressed her cheeks.

“Huh?”

“What will you do, Young Lady? Your acupuncture points manipulation has already been treated. There’s also a way for you to quietly regain your strength by going back to your mother.”

As I lightly patted her head, it felt like a nod from her two hands.

“Mother doesn’t let go of anyone she sets her eyes on.”

“I’m fine. There’s a solution.”

“……..”

Even though I couldn’t see, I could sense it. Despite having met for only a week, it seemed that the young lady had developed affection for me, feeling extremely sad.

I felt the ground with my hand, grasping the sword brought by Mu-Roi Bae.

“Young Lady, you go down first.”

“A.. And Father too.”

“What?”

“Father… He said everything is fine and went back.”

…?

“Father… Above all else, he was a warm-hearted person. Just like you, sir.”

“………”

“Please… Save him alive.”

I opened up the young lady’s delusion by firmly holding her cheeks.

“Young Lady.”

“…..”

“I’m not your father, Young Lady.”

She bowed her head deeply. So that’s it. He must have saved her from dying as a wanderer or as a pawn in her mother’s engagement party. Or perhaps, she projected herself onto her father in some way.

“I seem like your father, don’t I? Let me tell you how you look, Young Lady.”

He spoke while stroking the young lady’s hair.

“You are a bird with broken wings. A bird that cannot fly in the vast sky.”

“… Bird?”

“Now that I’ve fixed your wings, go ahead and fly. Rather than the Imperial Swordsmanship, like Nammungsa Ya’s swordsmanship that presses others and stands up, the Changgung Hwafongjo Swordsmanship would suit a Young Lady like you better.”

What expression is the young lady making right now?

One thing’s for sure. The young lady from the ‘Setting Description’ meets to fix her damaged health and practice late in the day.

The swordsmanship she shared with her was not the Noryong swordsmanship derived from the Imperial Swordsmanship but a transformed Changgung Hwafongjo swordsmanship called Changgunghwafongjogeombeop.

“I’ll take my leave.”

It’s time to go slowly. Otherwise, we’ll be surrounded by the whole mountain.

“……. .”

Although there was a pitiful look behind me, I ran.

I pressed the blood of paralysis and the blood of energy properly.

And for the battle, I pressed the blood of physical ability increase.

Tap! Thump!

Energy exists everywhere. Like atoms. I have come down the mountain step by step, sensing the form of energy.

Sarak!

Someone in the bushes seemed to be preparing an attack. The hidden muscles were taut. Even if they tried to hide their breathing, they stood out more.

I closed my eyes. There was no reason to see anyway.

Pong!

I felt a sharp toxic sting coming towards me.

“Where?”

Kang!

“What..!”

I wandered back and forth between the branches of trees quickly, coming down from the mountain.

“Chase after them!”

A case with so many remnants that cannot be fully detected by the sense.

– Clang!!

It detected the obstacles using the energy contained in the sound like a bat.

“Haa… Haa…”

My body is easily exhausted. It’s because I didn’t train my outer energy.

Even though the energy is overflowing in my body, there is a limit to how much strength I can pull out using reinforced blood.

And…

“Darn.”

‘I’m being lured.’

If it were in a visible state, I wouldn’t have known. But in a state that feels like radar, I can sense the enemy’s blatant movements.

If I keep going like this, I will be driven towards the direction of the brain dragon sword.

In that case…!

“What!”

“I’ll just make a way through!”

I penetrate the most vulnerable point of the encirclement.

An encounter between life and my sword took place.

– Chyaaeng! Chaeng!

“Huug… Huk…”

My breathing is too laborious. But there’s nothing I can do about it.

I just feel like my lungs want oxygen. The lack of oxygen doesn’t make me feel painful.

I lower my body and simultaneously perform a rotational cut.

After bending the enemy’s thigh, I flee again. The encirclement has been broken, but my stamina has decreased significantly.

However, somehow it seemed like I could escape.

That’s when.

– Puk!

“Ugh…?!”

My body suddenly lost its strength and fell from the tree.

The stinging blood must still have some duration, right?

“Indeed… as beautiful as one would call a sage..”

“Haa… Ha..”

“Martial arts skills to some extent, and I heard that you even cured my daughter’s condition.”

Someone ruffled my hair with rough hands. It was an embrace that exuded a strong tobacco scent.

“You are…”

“They call me Namgungsa, the mother of Namgyung Yeonha.”

Damn it… Am I caught? This is unfortunate…

“First, rest. You will have a lot to do in the future, hehehehe.”

Namgungsa sees men as tools. Implements for planting seeds in her own field.

Handy sons who scratch pleasant spots.

If there were to be a slightly different man, it would be someone like Laijin from a distant land.

I felt displeased when the target escaped from my grasp.

How dare they run away freely on someone else’s territory?

He thought he should reflect on himself by receiving his own cruel tastes with his body.

However, there was something I felt the moment I saw his face.

Curiosity. Love. Excitement.

I had never seen such porcelain-like skin on a man before. Watching him run with closed eyes, it seemed as if he were blind, and his hair was as white as snow.

I had an overwhelming desire to defile him.

The urge to make him mine flooded my mind.

She, who regarded men only as tools. As she watched Laijin mistakenly believe that he could control her from behind, she saw a man with true beauty.

Of course, if Eunho himself were able to see, he would not only be horrified, but his appearance would be so grotesque that it would cause seizures.

Saya, who clung to Eunho, went to the mat where the parasite women were playing.

There were also young ones there.

“……!”

Yeonha felt as if her heart was collapsing.

Her beloved father, tainted by magic, was killed by her mother with a sword.

And now. It was Eunho.

“No…”

Trembling like a quaking aspen as he looked at his menacing mother.

“Doesn’t your sister have a fiancé? Share her with your mother. Look at this man, I will not let you marry him.”

Clang… His hand tightened around the sword.

“Oh… you want to take on a match just like that. Since I’m in a good mood today, I’ll oblige.”

Please… Despite not truly being fervently devoted to any god, as much as Lord Namgung Yeonha, I prayed to God this time.

Help me to bring down my mother, to save Eunho…

The battle for pride as a daughter-in-law had begun.
