7 – Not Namgung, Just Yeonha

1.

“Uh… um…”

– Eunho, do you like her?

– No? I just have a good impression.

– What’s wrong with you… I told you not to wag your tail.

What is this… Warm. A tired body relaxed softly.

– hehehe. Still, it’s admirable that you tried to protect her.

– Women are flies.

– Then am I poop?

– Epidemics. Men don’t babble like that. Always gracefully, elegantly!

Sweeak. Brushing the hair pleasantly. It was as soft as a baby’s hand.

“Hey, look at this girl struggling. Get up! “Rang an earth-shattering roar.”

“Ugh..!”

“Grandma. Why did you wake me up like that?”

“Oh, look, isn’t she awake? Fighting all the way here was wrong. Now kneel down and apologize to me for hitting someone.”

“Eunho..! Are you okay!”

The situation was not understandable. Where is my mother?

What the hell happened?

Eunho said awkwardly,

“This is my only family, my grandmother. Her name is Jang Myungsoon.”

“……..”

Fragile? Didn’t you mention that Grandma was frail when you talked about her last time?

Where?

Nam Gung-yeon was trembling uncontrollably as she looked at the towering figure of her grandmother. Is she really a human?

2.

I explained the situation to Yeon-ha and had her stay at home for a while.

It was for treatment.

Since I even sacrificed a month’s worth of life for myself, I subtly observed Yeon-ha’s reaction.

Yeon-ha, too, asked me while being cautious.

Why is Yeon-ha being cautious? I thought.

“What happened to Mother?”

Even if I hate her or draw my sword against her, it seems that I can’t help but worry about her.

Since I couldn’t see ahead, I asked Grandma about the situation.

“I didn’t kill her. Although looking at one action alone would be enough to do so. She knows the Dragon Spirit Sword, after all. If I kill her, the old lady will nag at me.”

From what I heard, it seemed that she severely injured the head of the Nam Gung family and left him lying there. They must have had a separate conversation with Nam Gung Se-ga, so he might be receiving treatment.

Perhaps Nam Gung Se-ga will cause quite a stir for a while.

Although I feel sorry for Yeon-ha, since Nam Gung Se-ga still doesn’t have a supernova, there is only one strong person among the Nam Gung family. He suffered a major injury.

He will be wavering for a while since the leader’s injury leads to a decrease in power.

We spent time together watching the evening sunset of Mount Taebaek.

I couldn’t see, but I could feel the intensity of the sunlight.

Yeon-ha was the first to speak.

“I’m sorry.”

“…Why?”

“Because I couldn’t protect you.”

I strongly denied those words.

“No. It’s not true. You’re the first person I’ve seen who sacrificed their life for someone else, other than Grandma.”

“………”

“It’s me who should apologize. Using your life as collateral is a great burden on your body…”

No. No. That’s how Nam Gung-yeon thought.

I could have protected her a little longer. No, I wanted to protect her.

Not as the grandmother of Eun-ho, an ultimate expert, but because I wanted to protect her myself. To confidently rescue her from a mother figure who was like a demon, not just as a time buyer.

“I wanted that kind of story.”

“I wanted to save you.”

At those self-reproaching words, I wandered my arms, looking for Yeon-ha.

Soft hair felt in the dark sight.

“I’ve already been saved.”

“What are you going to do from now on?”

“Me? Um… Grandma said that since her hiding place had been found, she’s going to move to another place.”

“Is that so…”

When I tried to stop stroking her head, Yeon-ha grabbed my hand firmly and said, “I…I…”

Me? Yeon-ha, who hesitated, said.

“Can I also go with you?”

……. I was silent.

Is it okay to go together? It would be nice to be with Yeon-ha. But… can I really not participate in the main story?

I don’t stubbornly refuse to participate. It’s just that there are conditions.

The Mumin Realm. The Five Prestigious Families became the Four Prestigious Families due to the Ma-Gyo.

Although it is written that it is the Four Prestigious Families in the Setting House, the reality is that it is the Four Prestigious Families. It was definitely not a mistake in the process.

In short, my knowledge of this world that I know is now uncertain, so it can be dangerous to intervene in the main story without consideration.

Isn’t there such a saying? If you just stay still, half of it is gone.

Right now, my desire to quietly become a herbalist and my desire to see the heroines of the main story are divided into two.

“I guess… it’s not possible after all.”

With Yeon-ha accepting my silence as a refusal, she seemed to be leaving her seat, so I took her hand.

“Let’s go together. But… is it okay for Namgung-saga?”

Since the head of the family sustained a serious injury, the only successor to hold it was Namgung Yeon-ha. Regardless of the level of martial arts, she was the eldest daughter.

“I have no choice but to appoint a proxy… I’ll be back in a moment.”

3.

“Did you say her name was Namgung Yeon-ha”

“… Right. Daehyeop.”

“Who is Daehyeop? Ee, tsk.”

Looking at her grandson, who was looking at the sunset alone, Jang Myeong-soon said,

“You like our Eun-ho.”

“… I’m not sure yet. However, I want to grow the seed of this tingling heart.”

“Ridiculous. Even though you don’t like it, you’re going to follow and pay for your meals?”

“Of course, I will cover the expenses other than meals.”

“That’s a problem, but there are countless other problems.”

Jang Myeong-soon said, standing up. Nam Goong-yeon-ha gulped, swallowing his saliva with a daunting height of 3 meters and 25 centimeters.

“Other… What problem are you referring to?”

“Does Eun-ho know that you are following him? Why?”

“Because Eun-ho’s heart is weak. Women like pampered men, especially the handsome ones, but that’s not the case. Don’t make a mistake.”

“Donk donk.” A huge finger pressed Nam Goong-yeon-ha’s chest and warned him.

“You will be dead if you touch Eun-ho. I’m serious.”

“…Gulp.”

After the warning, Jang Myeong-soon sighed.

“It’s my fault. Eun-ho doesn’t care about the girls.”

“… What do you mean?”

Staring at Nam Goong-yeon-ha, who wanted to hear about Eun-ho despite just receiving a warning, Jang Myeong-soon licked her tongue.

“Women are insects. They get caught up in sweet things, so I kill every insect that comes near. That’s why women don’t scare me. I don’t know how many times our handsome Eun-ho almost got robbed.”

Jang Myeong-soon also agreed that her grandson was too open.

He wasn’t afraid of women and often showed his captivating smile.

Women with their brains in their wombs only think about eating him up when they see it.

“I don’t care if you like our Eun-ho or not. However, if Eun-ho genuinely doesn’t like someone, and they get his consent to take advantage of his weak heart, I will kill that person, no matter who it is.”

Jang Myeong-soon said as she packed her bags.

“Don’t disappoint me, me, and Eun-ho.”

“I will keep it in mind.”

Jang Myeong-soon vaguely knew that this conversation would have to be had not only by Nam Goong-yeon-ha, but also by many other women in the future.

“Is Namgung Yeonha starting her activities again?”

“Ack! Namgung Yeon-ha!”

“What is it?”

“It’s not ‘what,’ it’s ‘where have you been all this time?'”

Namgung Yeon-ha’s glare frightened the servant, but he continued.

“My lord was gravely injured and collapsed! The servants are terrified and the great grandmother arrived, ordering the guards with a command from the Murim Association!”

The Murim Association’s command. Although it was unclear what it was, it was evident that it was a powerful document, as even influential figures within the Namgung clan dared not meddle with it lightly.

“No need to be guarded. Everything’s out in the open now,” she explained, leaving out any crucial or vulgar details.

“You tried to rob the man known as a sage but were bested by a master of the Murim Association. Use the family’s name to enforce the decree and prevent any future constraints from other families,” she explained.

“My lord fell, so naturally, Namgung Yeon-ha…”

Nodding, Yeon-ha spoke.

“I will leave the leadership of the family to the elders.”

“Yes? But the elders…”

“It’s understandable. The discord between my mother and them. But that’s why they need to be asked. Mother’s method of governing the people is not good no matter how much they try to say so. The elders who served her since grandmother’s time are more fitting.”

“But Namgung Yeon-ha, are you okay? You’ve been so eager to work as the lord.”

“I have a new goal now,” she said, a conversation that should have been had with the elder, not a servant.

On the way to the guest room to find the elder, a fierce-faced man was there.

“Ugh…”

“You have a week, no, three days.”

Pang O-chun, the youngest son of the Pang family, had a similar charm to Rai-jin.

“It’s being said that the lord was bewitched by a sage and even betrayed his own mother!”

Did he incite the servants?

“Pang O-chun…”

“This is not polite. Are you disrespecting the fact that the Pang family, the weakest power now, is being ignored?!”

“I’m not ignoring it. I just…”

Pang O-chun glared at Namgung Yeon-ha.

“I look forward to how much the power of the Namgung clan will waver.”

Openly hostile words towards Namgoongsae. However, Namgoongyeon couldn’t say anything.

It is true that there are unfavorable rumors surrounding Paeng Ochun.

However, even if we don’t exclude those rumors, it is true that something was violated from this side.

“The martial arts tournament. Will you come?”

“………”

“You must come. My lord will not stand still.”

“I’m sorry.”

“You don’t need to force an apology to relieve guilt.”

She choked. Pointing at Namgoongyeon with her finger, she said,

“The Paeng clan will be hostile towards Namgoongsae. It’s no use regretting later. The expansion of Paeng’s power in this tournament will be tremendous.”

Misunderstandings should definitely be cleared up, said Namgoongyeon.

“The reason I want to break off the engagement is simple. It is because I want to leave Namgoongsae.”

“…That’s a lie.”

“We haven’t even properly looked at each other’s faces. I’m not asking for understanding. This is a notification and consideration. I will just become ‘Yeonha’, not Namgoongyeon. The engagement you desire is nothing more than a marriage with a commoner who has nothing to offer.”

“So, you considerate leaving first with an engagement that brings no benefit?”

Namgoongyeon closed her eyes for a moment. And stood up as if ready.

Paeng Ochun didn’t care and sneered.

“This is the first time I’ve been humiliated like this. It’s like saying my engagement will ultimately fail. It will make me regret what I said about becoming a commoner in front of me.”

“A goal has appeared.”

“…?”

“I have a goal that I want to follow endlessly, regardless of warm bedding or delicious high-class food.”

Even if it becomes a moth rushing into the flames.

“You won’t regret it.”

In fact, she never thought she could defeat Paengya in Paengga’s Paengya formation. She quietly decided to add the fact that she felt even more relieved.
