31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 254)
Cheonju and Chiu suddenly became busy as if a switch had been turned on..
“Unbelievable! Two days later! The banquet is in two days! Why is the schedule so tight... No! Two days is enough!”
Cheonju continued his monologue as if he was talking to God, and Chiu also rested his chin and muttered..
“Two days is not enough for customization... However, you can't wear just anything... ha….”
In fact, Seolhong, the person involved, was just glaring and observing his surroundings. She didn't commit a crime, but she continued to get smaller..
“Mr. Chiu, do you have any useful arguments??”
“Doesn’t the universe know much about this??”
“It was a long time ago so I don't remember much. That day will definitely come someday, but I can't believe I've neglected my practice! I really….”
“I have many servants in the martial arts world, but they are completely ignorant of these events..”
“Ehh… Tsk… Then I have no choice….”
At that time, there was a commotion outside..
“People who had business with Seolhong came to visit. We will serve Seolhong as soon as possible.….”
Heavenly Father got up and ran to the door of his residence..
“What happened… huh?”
She was distracted by three beautiful women standing outside the door. From her movements to the clothes she was wearing, everything was luxurious. She wondered for a moment whether any of the Yonghwas she remembered had a similar face..
“Elder Kwak Seong sent us..”
“…Adult Kwak Seong?”
“Yes, here is the letter.”
gone…
Cheonju, who had been looking at the handwritten letter for a while, ran to Seolhong with a smile on his face. She was overworked to the point where she thought her joints were overworked..
“Seolhong! Seolhong!”
“Why are you like this, Heavenly Father? who came?”
“Please read this. Salvation has arrived!”
“…Salvation?”
Seolhong, who felt suspicious of Cheonju making strange noises, took the letter Cheonju gave him and read it..
- This is Kwak Seong..
“This is a letter from adult Kwak Seong..”
“What an adult! Seolhong is in a much higher position..”
“You know we're not that kind of relationship, God..”
“that… It has to be like that..”
“anyway.”
- …So, I understand the difficulties of the struggle. Now that she has learned that Seolhong has not been able to challenge even one worthy quarrel, Mrs. Kwak cannot pretend not to know. These are the children I have raised and educated since they were young, and they will take good care of Seolhong for the rest of their lives. If you don't like it, please let me know anytime..
“…….”
Since it was a letter with Kwak Seong’s seal, the contents cannot be false..
“It's supply! Supplies arrived from the rear.!”
“Heaven, they are?”
“It was parked in front of the door. Shall I bring it here??”
“Yes, please.”
The women who appeared later were all women who looked older than Seolhong..
They were all impressive women, even if they were not exquisite..
“I'm saying goodbye.”
“This is Cheong-ah.”
“This is Hwia, Seolhong..”
- It's Cerberus!
- Let's go!
I was amazed at how the language of speech was not unified, but since they were all people that Kwak Seong trusted, I refrained from making hasty judgments as much as possible..
Snowfall glanced at them with keen eyes..
‘I learned martial arts.’
He was now able to evaluate others to some extent just by looking at their standing posture, eyes, and body balance..
Chiu also must have felt that they were unusual women, so she made eye contact with Kang Seol and nodded..
“I will do whatever you ask me to do..”
“I've come a long way, so please don't throw me away..”
“Seolhong is very beautiful.!”
Among them, Hwia in particular had a lively voice and personality that embarrassed Seolhong..
“ah… Yes? Thank you. Rather, is it true that Elder Kwak Seong sent you??”
“That's right, the old man apparently sent us to eat fewer mouths. Sobbing… please don't abandon us.”
Hwia pretends to cry for no reason.
“Throwing it away, what... That won't happen.”
Seeing Seolhong in embarrassment, the three women who became her new rivals spoke..
“You are really kind.,”
“What I heard from Kwak Seong was correct..”
“What did adult Kwak Seong say??”
“He asked me to help the kind Seolhong. Obviously, when a difficult moment comes, I have to be by your side and be your ally..”
Seolhong quietly closed his mouth and even closed his eyes..
It was not to heighten one's senses, but to enjoy Kwak Seong's sincerity conveyed through one's heart..
“Kwak Seong is truly a generous person..”
“Is that the old man??”
“Shhh, hwiya. I try not to speak in front of Seolhong..”
“ah! sorry… . Was I shallow??”
Seolhong shook his head..
“no.”
“then… Are you accepting us??”
nod.
“Best wishes in the future.”
“Well, it's us.!”
“i look forward to.”
“Please take care of me.”
Heavenly Father watched quietly and asked them:.
“Have you ever prepared a banquet??”
“I've never organized it before..”
“Subjectivity? That's not it, I'm talking about attendance..”
Hwa-ah, Cheong-ah, and Hwi-ah looked at each other and looked at Cheon-ju strangely..
“Do I need to prepare to attend??”
“then! Clothing or jewelry….”
“Oh, that's what you were talking about.!”
Hwia nodded furiously..
“of course. These are the skills I have learned so far this day. But you're asking about that now.….”
seed profit…
Even though Hwia was full of fun, other maids also had playful smiles on their faces..
“Are you planning to attend the banquet??”
“Is it a banquet??”
“Is it a banquet??”
Heavenly Father nodded..
“Yes. Unfortunately, there are only two black men and an old woman, so they are not of much help, so I am trying to ask for your opinion.….”
“What is the deadline??”
“It's the day after tomorrow. can you do it?”
Guo Sheng's reinforcements, who were suddenly supplied from the rear, nodded at the same time..
“It's enough!”
* * *
Snowfall paid close attention to their every move..
‘I guess only three were dispatched..’
It seemed like they probably had three or more minions under their command. All of their salaries seemed to be taken care of by Kwak Seong..
After a while, the maids lead Seolhong and head somewhere, combining the stories of the minions who asked for information..
“This is a place in Hongyeon that mainly handles event wear for nobles..”
“…You know Hongyeon pretty well.?”
“yes It's the home of my heart!”
“Have you ever been here??”
“It's my first time here!”
“…….”
“But don’t worry, there is a way to know everything, Seolhong..”
“I believe it.”
Hwia lightly advised.
“When entering the door, you must enter with as much confidence as possible. Adult Kwak Seong sometimes kicked in the door..”
“that….”
“I don’t want that far! Come on, let's go in..”
“Now, wait… eww….”
I entered the store with a lot of shyness, like a child trying shopping for the first time..
“welcome.”
A scene reminiscent of a library filled with bookshelves filled with silk. Each person was touching the fabric or trying on the clothes with a polite or classy gesture..
The maids, who are now Seolhong's, changed their mood as soon as they entered the store..
He glanced around with cold eyes and made the clerk approach..
“Are you looking for something??”
“female….”
cook…
“town….”
“yes?”
Hwi-ah stopped Seol-hong from answering by stabbing her in the side..
Hwia said to the clerk with a cold face..
“I need clothes to wear to an important banquet..”
“Is there a form you are looking for??”
“Make it as elegant and luxurious as possible. Minimize decorations as much as possible.”
To create that atmosphere with little decoration, the fabric had to be different..
“Okay, please wait a moment..”
After a while, the clerks place the life-size figures dressed in clothes in front of Seolhong one by one. At first glance, it seemed like many of the clerks were assigned to this place..
“Are there any of these that resonate with you??”
“uh….”
cook…
“town….”
“does not exist.”
“Okay, let me show you the following..”
“You don't need clothes with a dull atmosphere like dark green, so get rid of them and fill them with a different feel..”
“yes.”
Seolhong is crying.
However, everyone waited quietly because they felt it would be right to do as Hwia said..
Among the clothes that appeared soon after, there was one that the maids liked..
“those clothes.”
“You have a great sense of vision..”
“There is no need for honey-coated words. Can I try it on??”
“Oh, those clothes….”
Hwa-ah was quietly listening and frowned..
“It's annoying.”
Her words conveyed a lot of intent in a short period of time, and the atmosphere was quite sharp..
“You can try it on, come this way..”
Seolhong was almost caught by the maids and entered the dressing room. And it wasn't long before she appeared again.
Slurp…
It was a soft blue dress with a tight waist and no eye-catching decorations, but it was the perfect combination with her white skin..
“Oh, isn't it awkward??”
Kang Seol and Qiu looked at each other for a moment and then smiled shallowly..
“Good?”
“great.”
Seolhong said to Hwiah.
“flesh exposed….”
“This is okay since you will be wearing outerwear. And isn't it all about showing off a little bit of your arms??”
“that… Yes, but….”
Hwia told the clerk that she would wear this outfit..
“It's a platinum coin..”
Seolhong was shocked when he heard the price..
“Okay, it's okay. Why is it this expensive?….”
“I'll buy it for you today.”
“…Chiwoo?”
This is the amount that Kang Seol would have paid even if it wasn't Chi Woo, but it was surprising that Chi Woo said he would pay the entire amount for today..
“Yes, because that is the prettiest. Wear that.”
“…thanks.”
- My ㅁㅇㅁㅇ system is powered on.
- Turn it off quickly, it's your half brother..
- Hello world... i failed.
- Oops! It was a friendship.!
After paying for the clothes and receiving an appointment for delivery to my residence, I headed to the next location..
On this day, a large-scale march was held, including the maids of the action group, Cheon-ju, the operational staff, and Chi-woo, the supply officer..
They break through several stores that at first glance appear to only sell expensive items, at breakneck speed..
- The proud mechanized diameter battalion!
- Secretary General Chi shoots.
Seolhong was now Cinderella in a fairy tale..
“Next is Danghye! Of course, at the highest level!”
“With the highest quality!”
I even bought pretty flower shoes to wear at the banquet and moved forward again..
A pumpkin carriage and glass slippers were being made for her..
“Next is trash!”
“Paemul!”
- Ugh… I'm sad and depressed….
- It's a zombie! It's a zombie!
- I'm already irrational!
At first, Seolhong was happy as her appearance gradually changed, but later, she found it difficult to keep up with her changes..
All kinds of pretense were added.
It's not that bad, but rather good pretense.
But not like Seolhong, not like her..
Because he was running around so hard that he was exhausted, Chi-woo also went out and fell asleep in the carriage first..
‘The day is short.’
The sun was already setting.
Like a father who came out to help his daughter with shopping, I sat outside the two-story store and watched the sunset..
I felt a presence behind my back..
“Is it hard??”
Kang Seol’s gaze turned towards the direction from which the voice was heard..
Seolhong was standing awkwardly, adjusting his hair like a wild beast’s mane..
Her cheeks were unnaturally stained red and her lips were exaggeratedly lively, as if she had touched up her makeup while she was leaving..
“Even if it's hard, please be patient, I'm not used to it either..”
The two sat on chairs and enjoyed the scenery..
Luxurious carriages wandered around the streets under the setting sun. Seolhong opened his mouth..
“Long ago, long ago, I really hated being born in the Dragon Palace..”
“Why did you do that??”
“If I hadn't been born in the Dragon Palace, I don't think I would have felt contempt among the nobles..”
“…….”
“It's a complaint of being full. But back then, that was my whole world..”
Wasn't the reason Seolhong grew up early because he had to survive alone?.
“At this time, carriages carrying nobles and dragons often travel around the city..”
“Where is everything going??”
“Where do you think you're headed??”
Kang Seol saw Seol Hong smiling and answered..
“It's a banquet..”
“Even when the moon rises at night, laughter leaks out of the carriage. I sat on an inconspicuous hill near the Dragon Palace and watched the carriages. Then, I used to get scolded by Heaven, but….”
Old memories were filled with regret..
“At that time, I mainly had clumsy delusions about whether I would one day be able to ride a carriage like that and mingle with other people, and whether that day would ever come..”
“It's not a delusion.”
Kang Seol looked into Seol Hong’s eyes..
“Lately I've been dreaming.”
“Are you talking about a dream??”
“Yes, it's all thanks to you. It feels like walking on clouds. I'm out of breath because the height is too much for my abilities. People's cheers and hospitality shake me.”
“This is the result that Seolhong achieved thanks to his hard work..”
“i haven't yet….”
“Enjoy the banquet, you have a lot on your mind..”
Smiling Seolhong and Snowfall.
“Don't laugh at my awkward appearance, there's a first time for everyone..”
“For Seolhong, the beginning was just a little late. It's nothing to be ashamed of.”
“…I will try my best.”
Snowfall looked down on the city again.
The night view of Hongyeon slowly revealed itself..
“I will support you.”
Soon, Cheong-ah and Hwi-ah found them..
“You were hiding here.!”
“Come here quickly!”
* * *
On the day of the banquet.
Everyone was wearing colorful red robes and appearing at the entrance of the large palace. This was not a dragon palace, but a private residence..
I profit…
A large man and a woman got off the antique carriage. Je-gak and Yu-gyeong, looking at the geohan and the woman, each spoke..
“Shinyo….”
“I'll put it next to you..”
“Yes, if I leave it alone, it is a troublesome entity that will block my path..”
Haaam…
Jangdu yawned and looked around..
“Shinyo has arrived!”
“Shinyo, here it is.!”
It was the same for people to consider Jangdoo, Shinyo, and banquets a nuisance. If it had not been for the requests of all parties, I would not have attended..
“Are you here yet??”
“Jangdu, look carefully with those big eyes..”
“Shinyo, don’t your eyes have the same size? And just because you have big eyes doesn't mean you have a big field of vision..”
“That makes sense..”
“What should I do with those people who bother me??”
“Leave it alone. Sometimes you need something like this.”
“Do you hate banquets??”
“I used to like it. Although I hate it now. She was led around by her mother until she got sick of it. She took the time to say hello to strangers over 100 times.….”
“It was useless..”
Shinyo shook his head at Jangdu’s words..
“Not like that. Just once, at a banquet, I met someone who could help me in life..”
“ah! I think I know who it is.”
“Yes, you are my teacher.”
Shinyo's martial arts was second to none among the dragon paintings..
“Your mother succeeded..”
“Okay, so I can't really criticize it..”
“however… It seems like all the dragon flowers that were locked up in the palace have come pouring out..”
“…I see I can see quite a lot of Yonghwa in my eyes too. This is the first banquet of this scale in several years..”
“It looks like Taeyul won't be participating.?”
“Maybe you weren't invited. Whenever Taeyul appears, he becomes the main character..”
Crack, thump, thump.…
At that time, a carriage pulled by a black horse arrived at the banquet hall..
“That's a good horse, whose carriage is it??”
Just as Shinyo said, the black horse's body was shiny and its mane flowed beautifully..
The carriage was also enough to capture the attention of the people gathered here..
“It's stylish without being excessive. It looks much better than the idiots drunk on glamour..”
“Same idea. I'm curious about the owner..”
“If you're a person who doesn't have as much as you think, I think you'll be a little disappointed..”
I didn't know that the eyes of Hongyeon's influential figures, including Yonghwa, who were invited to various banquets, would take their eyes off the carriage that had just arrived..
“Who is it?”
“Why aren't you getting off??”
and then.
Meeeee profit…
The door of the pumpkin carriage was opened..
Shinyo's pupils shook..
“new year… red?”
