Surviving the Romance Fantasy

It is only a story circulating among the high-ranking officials of the main palace that the people under the seal are blind to success.

Wasn’t he the man who stayed away from the Palace of the Baekseon Palace, except for the occasional sword fight with the Ingwibi? How could he know Deokbi’s true intentions and temperament with just that much?

Seol Tae-pyeong had been alone with Ha Deok-bi only twice. It was a time when they were performing skits in the tearoom of Baekho Palace, saying, “I fell for Deokbi Ha.”

The man who knelt down and vomited out his thoughts looked so frivolous.

However, in the midst of all that, did the man keep his eyes on Ha Deok-bi and try to find out what he was thinking?

“Deokbi Ha is leading the work, and the truth cannot be so obvious. As far as I know, Deokbi Ha will make you more careful in whatever he does.”

“A truly bizarre person. How many times are you sure you’ve seen me?”

Seol Tae-pyeong thought as he made his way across the backyard.

It is not difficult to draw a future in which Deokbi Ha-wol would have fallen disastrously in the love story of Cheonryong. The fact that he was a character who appeared to be like that in the first place was too obvious.

However, I had doubts about the method.

How could the owner of the Palace of the White Tiger fall so easily? A careful person who does not easily show his tail no matter what tricks he uses.

Every story requires some degree of plausibility. And when we think of the narrative methodology for the disastrous fall of Deokbi Howell, there were few possibilities that came to mind.

“Are you caught up in an internal hierarchy battle under the seal?”

When Seol Tae-pyeong accurately hit the blind spot, Ha Deok-bi swallowed her breath.

I thought he was just a warrior who knew how to handle a sword. However, I only looked at the work going on in fragments, but I accurately point out the core.

“You…”

“Then let me tell you the good news. Ingwibi, who almost fell for the trick, is aware of the current situation. You have just gone to see the deputy general to discuss the situation.”

“…”

“Once you escape and save your life, things might get better.”

The person who thought he was a messenger who had come to slit his head, rather poured out hopeful stories.

Gwibi In, the victim of the trick, is clearly aware of the situation. Ha Deok-bi did not have this kind of good news.

“Until you understand the situation correctly and move properly, you must not be caught.”

“…The nobles of the main palace came out to catch me.”

From noble mtl dot com

“…Are you talking about a nobleman?”

It was the name of the detached unit under the direct control of the emperor.

Its movements are like beasts hiding in the darkness of the night, moving secretly but also powerful.

Upon hearing the name, Seol Tae-pyeong frowned. The demons were definitely troublesome opponents.

One person’s strength may not reach Seol Tae-pyeong, but it is difficult to handle if several people strategically rush into the siege while unfolding the battle.

Its quality is completely different from the Byeoldongdae led by Mi-rae. The position of detached unit under the direct control of the emperor was not something that anyone could ascend.

“At this speed… I’ll be caught soon… I intend to drag me before the Emperor and clear all my sins before things get more complicated…”

“Whose idea was that?”

“…Heavy-sense Ha Chae-rim.”

She was the one who was at the top of the sealing family.

Seol Tae-pyeong also knew the name. It was the name of the 4th wife of Emperor Unseong, who resided in the main palace.

“No matter how displeased the Queen Consort may be, if there is no evidence, nothing can be said. It is an undeniable fact that the sachet went into the palace of the emperor as a gift from the palace of the white tiger.”

“…”

“If the junguibi persists in digging into that point and drives me, there is no logic that can be refuted from my point of view.”

Deokbi Ha spoke with a bitter smile.

“Would you still support me?”

“I don’t think it’s too complicated. I just want to ask.”

Seol Tae-pyeong spoke with a serious face.

What do other things mean? There is only one thing that Seol Tae-pyeong is curious about.

“Is that what Deokbi Ha did?”

We clearly know what kind of person Deokbi Howeol is.

He is a snob who can do anything with an eye for power. He’s never a good person.

If left alone, it will become a mudfish that disturbs the concubine and further confuses the palace.

He’s not a benevolent and kind person to the extent that he deserves to help.

However, that is the story of the love story of the heavenly dragon.

Even if they are exactly the same person, did the present Ha Deok-bi commit a sin?

Who in the world has the right to punish people for their sins by presuming future sins that never happen?

Future things are just future things. What Seol Tae-pyeong was looking at was Ha Deok-bi.

“…”

“…Ha, Deokbi, is that what you did?”

So, Seol Tae-pyeong’s question was so natural and reasonable.

However, Deokbi Ha had to be speechless for a while after receiving that obvious and reasonable question.

It was because no one had asked Ha Deok-bi that question.

In the Qingdao Palace, where intrigue, trickery, and secret struggles were rampant, there were many cases in which a heart attack was soon confirmed.

It is because those who are hardened as their wick is hardened do not easily give physical evidence.

“…”

Deokbi Ha barely took a difficult step and spoke in a stilling voice.

“I… didn’t…”

“Yes, isn’t that the most important thing?”

When it comes to judging everything, Seol Tae-pyeong doesn’t try to think too complicatedly.

They say they didn’t. And even as Seol Tae-pyeong thought, it seems that Ha Deok-bi did not do it.

What do you need a reason that is more complicated than that for the reason for moving?

At Seol Tae-pyeong’s absurdly cool attitude, Ha Deok-bi couldn’t help but open her eyes wide.

“You… you live according to your convictions to the extent of being cool.”

I’ve already looked enough into the person named Seol Tae-pyeong.

He saved Jin Suk-bi, crossed swords with In-gwi-bi, and blocked the road in front of Byeoldongdae for Po Hyeon-bi.

If there’s one thing I think is right, it’s a guy who goes straight without covering the front or back.

Even if sometimes my life is at stake, if I think it’s right, I’ll do it.

The reason Baekseon Lee Cheol-woon brought Seol Tae-pyeong into the palace was because he caught the boy’s temperament.

If you are simply a good swordsman, it is widely spread. However, Seol Tae-pyeong was a person who lived his life in his own way.

‘It’s stupid.’

Deokbi Ha thought so. Life is something you have to live with a little more cunning and cowardly.

There were many moments where I had to live that way even if I didn’t want to. Especially since I was born as a daughter of Haga, the seal.

However, Deokbi Ha could not deny such a man.

That’s why… In a way, it was obvious.

– Tuuk!

– Cheek!

“Ha Duckbi.”

“Cheheheuk, heouk…”

I run through the backyard, and then I lose all strength in my legs.

Ha Deok-bi dropped to the floor and exhaled dry breath several times.

“Ha Duckbi. It might be better to lift it up.”

“I envy you.”

“…yes?”

Deokbi Ha lifted his head with difficulty and looked at Seol Tae-pyeong’s face.

Seeing him sincerely worrying about Ha Deok-bi, he seems to be standing on the opposite side of himself.

“He said he was jealous of you.”

“Suddenly it…”

Is it because his life is at stake?

Or is it because the end to come someday has finally arrived?

Oddly, emotions surged up, and Deokbi Ha made a decision that he would never normally make.

“I’ll just leave you here. Just report to the queen that what I did was right.”

“yes?”

“There is no way that the junguibi would have been able to work like this without any preparation. If the situation has become this far, taking my side is rather poisonous to you. It will be the same for the queen.”

Ha Deok-bi spoke with her trembling arms tight.

“If you are obsessed with throwing away cards, you cannot win in a big game. Keep that in mind.”

“…”

“No matter what, I am the owner of the Palace of the White Tiger. If the Crown Princess from the Sealing House is dethroned for committing infidelity, no matter how powerful the Sealing House may be, there will be no damage. For Jeong Seon-in, this is a great opportunity.”

Paradoxically, this tactic concocted by Ha Chae-rim, the heavy queen, is an act of undermining the authority of the sealing family.

However, nonetheless, the heavy rain wanted to keep its place.

Everyone is the same. My lifespan was more important than the prestige of my family.

If he could become a person with an irreplaceable position within the seal, he must have thought that it would be okay if the large painting was slightly torn.

“I said I was jealous of you. You are… a man who sticks to his convictions to the end, even in the face of any great ordeal.”

“…”

“That is a choice you can make because you are strong.”

At those words, Seol Tae-pyeong was speechless.

Stabbing myself with a dagger to drive away the master’s trick, pulling out a sword in front of a noble lady, and blocking the detached unit.

All of that was possible because Seol Tae-pyeong was strong enough to possess the qualities of a swordsman.

“However, there are far too many people in the world who aren’t that strong.”

“Ha Duckbi.”

“I am not as strong as you. Maybe, I don’t even know if I wanted to be someone like you.”

As if vomiting, Deokbi Ha confessed. His voice was trembling.

The reason why everyone in the world couldn’t carry out my beliefs to the end was simpler than I thought. because it is weak

In order for the weak to survive, sometimes they had to close their eyes.

I had to turn a blind eye to injustice, reach out to cowardly measures, and sometimes walk in the opposite direction of conscience.

Deokbi Ha, who was born as a daughter of a sealing family, has always been chased. Life was a struggle.

In order to survive, you must do whatever it takes. If you do not suspect, you will be poisoned. If you can’t prove it, you’re thrown out.

It is the privilege of the strong to be able to discuss romance and carry out their beliefs.

The only thing that a person who barely survives day by day can discuss is reality.

By the time the girl, who hadn’t even reached adulthood, had grown up, she was already covered in a lot of disgusting filth.

So many people turn a blind eye to injustice and become people who discuss reality. As usual, everyone does.

Standing in front of Seol Tae-pyeong made me feel especially ashamed. Even so, envying the man… was a creature that could not be helped.

It’s too naive to be jealous, and too miserable to be qualified. It was just that feeling.

“I can’t shake off the demons anyway. So… at this point…”

“Ha Duckbi.”

However, Seol Tae-pyeong cut off Ha Deok-bi.

“Don’t say anything strange and get up quickly. I have an idea.”

In the first place, for a man named Seol Tae-pyeong, throwing away Ha Deok-bi was not even an option.

No matter what Deokbi Ha said, it was not that important to Seol Tae-pyeong.

“No matter what, survival comes first. Do you understand?”

It was a man named Seol Tae-pyeong.

*

Unbaek, leader of nobles.

Even that name was a pseudonym. Because the face is wrapped in a black cotton cloth, no one has ever seen the face beneath it.

Her name is not even listed in the personal register of the main palace.

He was known only as a direct military attache to the emperor, and as one who commanded the demons.

It wasn’t until 10 minutes after the fire started that he appeared at the Baekho Palace with a few more members of the Demon Guard.

The response speed was so unbelievable that even Ha Chae-rim, who was resting near the middle gate of Baekho Palace, was taken aback.

“I heard about the situation. It is fortunate that he did not appear to have been seriously injured.”

“But… our Hawol…”

“Deokbi Ha will take responsibility for our nobles and arrest them. Demons have already spread around the concubines. There are also sentries in the enemy palace, so you won’t be able to get far.”

voice is hoarse Judging from his sturdy build, he seemed to be a man of quite an old age.

The gwisudae members who followed him were also thoroughly wrapped in cotton cloth. Since it was important for the returnees not to reveal their identities, no one was able to identify them.

The nobles who were put into the Palace of the White Tiger reached nearly thirty. In addition to the 10 people Joong-bi brought, he brought about 20 more. In fact, it was as if most of the nobles had been put in.

There was no waste in the movements of the nobles who spread all over the White Tiger Palace.

There was no need to enter the burning White Tiger Palace. Anyway, the purpose of Deokbi Hawol must be to get out of this concubine.

In that case, all you have to do is occupy the middle gate that leads out of Baekho Palace. Because the body of a woman would not be able to cross the wall of the concubine.

It’s embarrassing that things have become bigger than expected, but Unbaek spoke clearly.

“I don’t have much time. Soon, soldiers from the main palace will come to the concubine to extinguish the fire. When the crowd grows like that, it becomes more difficult to find Deokbi Ha.”

“then…”

Before the heavy rain could say anything, one of the noblemen next to him raised his voice.

“They say they found Deokbi Ha on the other side of the Jungmun!”

“The situation will be sorted out sooner than I thought. After you wrap up and bring him back, let’s go to the main palace.”

“Huh, but…”

The relatively young-looking gwisu spoke with a trembling voice.

“This, a strange soldier is guarding the middle gate… They say they missed Deokbi Ha.”

“…what?”

A group of warriors called Gwisu shared its history with Qingdao.

They didn’t go out in the sun, but they always acted as the emperor’s blade under the water and took pride in fulfilling their duties.

Each person’s armed strength is comparable to that of the high-ranking military officers of the enemy palace, but when more than a certain number gathered and started to use the jinbeop, it was difficult even for general-level warriors.

The only enemy that more than 10 nobles could not subdue was Deputy General Jeong Seo-tae, who took the position of general with pure force.

When Baekwoon, the leader of the demons, arrived at the middle gate of the backyard, dozens of demons were already lying down.

Burning White Tiger Palace.

A deep night when everywhere is dyed red. The sound of cracking beams makes the scene even more bloody.

In front of the heat, I see the eyes of a man standing in front of the middle gate. Those eyes were like those of a beast.

Unbaek, who led twenty members of the gwisu with agile movements and settled in the backyard, trembled at the tip of his eyes.

——The man blocking the road doesn’t even hold a real sword.

The warriors of the Red Palace were standing firmly in front of the middle gate, holding the wooden swords used for practice sparring in reverse.

He was wearing a military uniform, which is common everywhere, but had a black cotton cloth wrapped around his face.

I took a cotton cloth from one of the demons I had defeated and wrapped it around my face.

The flames that had moved were causing a haze all over the area. The heat was so hot that sweat was pouring out of it, but the ghost crew couldn’t even care.

The intent to kill rises from the eyes of the man guarding the middle gate.

If you do not be shy, you will die.

“For now, increase your distance and spread your tactics to find out his condition—”

Before Unbaek could finish his words, the man’s eyes met.

Then the man kicked the floor. No, only the result of kicking the floor remained.

The man’s body flew like the wind and was already out of sight. Only the dust after the floor was kicked in is rising in vain.

– Whiik!

“Gagging!”

The man who had already flinched past the members of the demons had burrowed into the arms of the narrator at the rear.

As it was, he took the elbow of the fortune teller’s stomach and pressed it down, then grabbed one arm and threw it to the floor while wrapping it around. The sorcerer let out a dry breath and then lost consciousness.

Seonsulsa was a person who conducted pilotage to form the true law of nobles. If you were to fight many-on-one, he was the first troublesome person to subdue.

The man seemed to know that.

‘…Moves fast!’

Unbaek quickly drew his sword and shouted to form a formation. It was clear that the opponent was a master who had reached a considerable level.

Before he could even give that order, the man quickly wrapped his feet around the two archers right next to him and struck them in the back of the neck with a wooden sword.

After the sorcerer, hit the archers who attack from a long distance.

The series of processes are very natural. He was a guy who sensed how to destroy opponents who were strategically attacking in groups.

‘No matter how much, you’re going to subdue it in one blow? Is it the general level of the main palace?’

‘However, a person of that level should be on the list of high-ranking officials of the main palace…! It doesn’t even look like it’s that old because it’s small…!’

Unbaek quickly took out a few copies of memorized words and threw them at him. First of all, it was necessary to press down that swift movement.

The man who swung and twisted his body to beat the memorized words quickly moved backwards once more.

– Roaring! Blasphemy!

Leaving behind the blazing White Tiger Palace, the man straightened his posture by shaking off the tip of his wooden sword.

Twenty-one people, including Unbaek, were put in, and three of them were already subdued in a short time.

The remaining number was eighteen.

The odds of winning decrease when the nobles begin to refine their jinbeop properly. who knows that

So the man tried to make a quick decision. In other words, time was on the side of the nobles.

“Unfold your eyesight! Concentrate on blocking his movements!”

Unbaek, the leader of the nobles, pulled out the Taeseong sword that was bestowed directly by the emperor.

It was a treasured sword that was only allowed for first-class military officers.

The demons spread out all over the courtyard and begin to form besiegers.

In the meantime, the man who had been lowering his head for a moment raised his head in a flash, fixing his grip on the wooden sword.

In an instant, Unbaek met the man’s eyes.

His eyes were… like a wild beast searching for food.

– ‘Let’s survive.’

Seol Tae-pyeong just said that.
