It was a body never meant to live freely in the first place. The imugi rejected him and raised Seonwol-do. Moonlight reflected off the blade and pierced the eyes. “Sometimes, you need to know when to accept fate.” He muttered and cast a cold look at Seolyeong. “No matter how much favor the Wonsi Cheonjon shows you, to desire more than fate allows is arrogance. You monster.” Seonwol-do trembled with rage at the insult. Arrogance, what nonsense. The sword considered its master’s choice…- 253.5 K • Completed
Hayeon opened and closed her hand. Qi cracked in the air. Her clear blue eyes reflected the full moon. The gaze of the heavens met the gaze of the divine beast. The girl’s eyes were calm, as if she were saying to the heavens, that she would be the one to step onto the stair and enter their embrace. Seolyeong wanted to speak, but his body was too broken to make a sound. He tried to push himself up from the ground, but Hayeon stopped him. “If you use more Qi, your meridians will be…- 253.5 K • Completed
The strongest man of his time had survived. After the divine light faded, Yeonhu Mountain returned to its usual stillness. The only difference was the camellias swaying in the breeze along the path, each blooming in its own aloof posture. As if trapped in a dream, the people of Yurigung wandered through the sea of flowers. Only by afternoon did they return to themselves. None of them would know that Sahyeol Amje had escaped the serpent’s nest and finally found freedom. Tang Yujae still looked dazed…- 253.5 K • Completed
Only recently did the ruler of Jungwon understand why he had felt neither thrill nor satisfaction when trampling over the martial world. A sense of peace he had never found even after piling mountains of corpses was now flooding his life. The hollow space inside him, once like an empty shell, now bore the footprints of his reckless bride. Following those tracks, he would always find the face of his smiling wife turned back toward him. It felt like all the senses he had long forgotten were returning to…- 253.5 K • Completed
The balance of power between the two friends had completely reversed. Day after day, Choseon wept over Yuwon. With the woman who had felt like the last ray of hope in Yeonhu Mountain now gone, he no longer felt any reason to remain. But since his friend’s wedding was soon, Choseon resolved to hold out a little longer. Without his experienced help, Seolyeong seemed unlikely to manage the preparations properly. “You blind bastard. You really think jadeite suits you better than white jade?” But no…- 253.5 K • Completed
In the end, Choseon accepted Seolyeong’s request. Standing beside the Mad Bride, he took his steps in rhythm with the lively music played by the musicians. The boisterous sound filled Sipman Daesan, especially Yeonhu Mountain where the Yurigung stood. The spirited sound of the guzheng roused excitement, and the sect members carrying the red palanquin all began to chant in unison. “Ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand years more!” “Idiots. If you’re going to chant, you might…- 253.5 K • Completed
Yudit, who had led them to the table, pulled the bell cord to have tea brought in. Seeing the three of them looking around the cluttered room, he gave an awkward smile. “The room’s a bit messy, isn’t it? Should we go outside for drinks?” “No, we’re the ones who should apologize for visiting when you’re probably so busy…” “It’s all right. I actually wanted to see the three of you before I left. Thank you for coming to me first like this.” They were the ones he had brought…- 396.9 K • Completed
After her emotional farewell with Yudit, Yvonne eventually hurried off, leaving Yudit alone. Or rather, not quite alone. “Well then, now that everyone’s gone, how about we say goodbye too, Luka?” At Yudit’s words, the curtain by the window gave a noticeable flutter. A pair of feet fidgeted beneath it, then the curtain was drawn back and Luka stepped out. His face was soaked, as if he’d been crying. Yudit knelt down and gently wiped Luka’s tear-streaked face. “I wanted us to say…- 396.9 K • Completed
When Haeri declared before everyone that he would take responsibility and live with Jeong Mok no matter what, the frozen atmosphere melted in an instant. The Hyeonsan family, who had looked stern at the thought of their carefully raised child being devoured by a scoundrel unwilling to take responsibility, loosened their hard expressions in satisfaction. The Chairwoman, laying down the weapon in her heart, said that such a joyful day could not go without a drink. The Professor then mentioned a…- 265.9 K • Completed
Even after hearing the answer he wanted, Jeong Mok’s expression hardly relaxed. ‘Is that really his true heart?’ It was obvious, Haeri was playing up his pitiful side, exaggerating weakness, while at the same time trying to get through the moment with little displays of cuteness. Haeri himself seemed to think he was giving a method performance, or else had resigned himself to all-or-nothing, for he kept trying to soothe Jeong Mok’s anger with cuteness. He didn’t truly feel he had done…- 265.9 K • Completed
