Chapter 95. Maksu’s Appearance (2/2)
It could only emerge after an accumulation of a lot of experience and knowledge.
Un Hui suddenly felt that Cho Ryu Hyang was a person who had surpassed human limits.
“This is the most important part that would allow us to secure our position; thus, I’m going to need a lot of help.”
Un Hui quickly came back to his senses and spoke.
“Your servant shall carry out your commands faithfully.”
Cho Ryu Hyang scratched his cheeks.
“This isn’t a command; it’s a request. You really need to recover faster now. It’s about time our enemies make their move.”
Un Hui became more serious.
The heir was right.
Things were going to get dangerous from now on.
They did a lot of things in Sichuan already. Information about them must have leaked out during that time.
“…….I will try to recover as much as possible by tomorrow.”
Cho Ryu Hyang nodded.
“I will be waiting.”
Cho Ryu Hyang exited the room, so that Un Hui could rest more comfortably.
Although he was able to see No Jin Nyung make fun of Un Hui behind his back, he ignored it.
How long did he walk?
He was able to see someone run towards him.
When Cho Ryu Hyang saw this person, his heart instantly tightened.
‘Again……’
His heart was beating faster.
Cho Ryu Hyang looked at Gongson Ahri with a complicated face.
“Hello!”
“…….”
Cho Ryu Hyang was only able to nod.
He was able to feel his face get hotter.
‘The conditions are getting worse by the day.’
Cho Ryu Hyang wasn’t able to understand.
Why did he become like this in front of Gongson Ahri?
He didn’t do anything wrong, nor he was hiding anything from her.
But he became extremely nervous in front of her.
His mouth dried out, and his muscles tightened.
It was as if he was in front of his teacher, Gongson Chun Gi.
‘I don’t get it…….’
Gongson Ahri was not his teacher.
He could understand when it came to his teacher since his teacher was quite special, but why Gongson Ahri?
‘Just why?’
As Cho Ryu Hyang contemplated on this, Gongson Ahri opened her mouth.
“Did Maksu come here?”
Maksu?
What about him?
Cho Ryu Hyang became a little confused, but he didn’t show it.
“He didn’t.”
“Ah….. what do I do?”
Gongson Ahri was unable to say anything and could only become agitated.
At the point where Cho Ryu Hyang had calmed a bit, Gongson Ahri spoke.
“It looks like our Maksu has run away.”
The word ‘our’ concerned Cho Ryu Hyang a little, but he decided to act calmly.
“He’ll come back whenever. You don’t have to worry about him.”
Maksu wasn’t something one could worry about.
That thing only harmed. It wasn’t something that could be harmed.
“But he hasn’t come back for 10 days.”
“10 days?”
“Yes…….”
Cho Ryu Hyang began to think.
Ten days was a long time.
The reason why he put the rabbit next to Gongson Ahri was partly because she wanted it, but mostly because Cho Ryu Hyang wanted the thing away from him.
But……
‘That guy said himself that being away from me was not good for him.’
He didn’t know how exactly ‘far’ this distance was, but he was sure that it would be better for the rabbit to be close to him.
Being away for so long definitely meant that the rabbit was trying to do something.
‘How annoying.’
It was still unclear whether the rabbit was a friend or a foe.
Because of that, Cho Ryu Hyang tried to distance him from the thing as much as possible.
The actions of now must mean that the rabbit was his foe.
‘This is bad.’
Since he had struck a deal with Maksu, he had some trust in him.
But if Maksu comes out to be like this, there will be no way to stop him.
The deal with him would end when Cho Ryu Hyang dies.
In other words, it would be fine for Maksu to bring Cho Ryu Hyang to danger.
Cho Ryu Hyang smiled when he thought of that.
It was useless.
It was inefficient to think of misfortunes that didn’t had even happened.
This was not how Cho Ryu Hyang worked.
“Let’s wait.”
“Will he come back?”
When Gongson Ahri asked this with a worried tone, Cho Ryu Hyang nodded.
“Yes. He’ll definitely be back.”
Right.
After all, he had something Maksu desperately needed.
But the time when Maksu came back was a little faster than what Cho Ryu Hyang had expected.
The rabbit came back that following night.
In a completely different form than Cho Ryu Hyang had expected…….
