Chapter 100. Theoretical Formation
ED: Chrysanthemum
Sunwu Cho Rin decided to head out for once.
She separated herself from her guards and went outside secretly.
She was being extremely cautious of any followers.
After walking in circles for quite some time, she entered a teahouse and immediately began to swear.
“Hey, you dogshit! Are you crazy? How dare an ugly person like you request an emergency meeting? Do you think I’m your lover or something? Is that how it is?”
“Ha, haha, sorry, little family head. The higher-ups wanted to get this done as fast as possible. I’m actually under a lot of stress as well. Please understand with your merciful self.”
In the teahouse, a man in a worker’s clothes was profusely asking for forgiveness.
Sunwu Cho Rin looked at the man with slitted eyes for a moment, then she smirked.
“Did my father tell you to flatter me like that?”
“…….Yes. He told me or you’d beat me to death otherwise.”
“He’s right about that.”
The man, whose name was Sunwu Se Ok, was the leader of the Sunwu Family’s darkness, the Earth Dragon Brigade.
That man that was looking at Sunwu Cho Rin was being extremely polite.
Their class was different.
Although they both used the last name of Sunwu, Sunwu Cho Rin was a direct descendent while Sunwu Se Ok was from a branch family.
The four families of the church separated ranks according to blood.
Sunwu Cho Rin leaned back on her chair and spoke.
“There is a harmonious expert near the heir.”
“Yes. I heard there were two, but one of them is severely injured, so why not attack now?”
Suwnu Cho Rin made a strange face.
“I had thought that it would be alright to attack as well…… but there’s something that bugs me a little. Let’s wait for now.”
Sunwu Se Ok frowned.
“Apologies, but may I know what is that thing that bugs you so much? It would help us a great deal.”
“Do you really want to know?”
“Yes.”
“Do you really have to hear it?”
“Is it something private?”
“No, not really.”
“Then tell us.”
Sunwu Cho Rin looked at Sunwu Se Ok with a discontent face.
But not even her could do anything to Sunwu Se Ok.
Not only was he her cousin, but he was also one of the strongest experts in the family.
‘He’s a man, as well.’
It was infuriating, but a woman could not become the family patriarch.
Just because Sunwu Se Ok was a man, he was higher than her in terms of becoming the next heir.
He was smart as well.
Although he was handling the shadowy matters in the family. Once everything sorts itself out, he would be qualified to fight for the position of the heir.
Of course, his chance of succeeding would be extremely small.
After thinking for a bit, Sunwu Cho Rin opened her mouth with an annoyed face.
“It’s intuition.”
“……What?”
What did he hear just now?
Sunwu Se Ok wasn’t sure if he heard right.
“It’s a woman’s intuition. The heir definitely is hiding something.”
“……A woman’s intuition?”
“Yes.”
Sunwu Se Ok looked at his beautiful mistress with an astounded face.
What the woman was saying was ridiculous.
Did she expect him to just wait, because of her intuition?
Did she really expect him to give up a perfect time to strike the heir?
There was no way he would do that.
Sunwu Se Ok sighed and opened his mouth.
“The people from the main house have moved, and it looks like people from the other families are coming as well. There’s no way we can just wait without being given a proper reason.”
Sunwu Cho Rin’s eyes narrowed.
At the same time, a cruel smile floated up her face.
“It’s not my fault if you all die, ok?”
“…….Right, right, of course.”
When Sunwu Se Ok answered her with a bitter face, Sunwu Cho Rin’s smile just kept getting bigger.
“Do what you want, then. It doesn’t matter to me what you do, but one thing is for sure. If you go by yourselves, you will fail, and there will be no second chance. The heir is quite smart, you see. At least a hundred times smarter than you.”
“…….”
Sunwu Se Ok’s eyebrows bunched up together.
He was conflicted.
He wanted to proceed with the plan after taking into account all the variables that might affect him.
However it wasn’t like he could wait to find the variables just because of Sunwu Cho Rin.
‘What to do…….’
As Sunwu Se Ok became more and more troubled, Sunwu Cho Rin became troubled as well.
‘Why do I feel so cautious of the heir?’
Like Sunwu Se Ok said, it was a good time to attack the heir.
But she hesitated.
Why?
Was it because of Cho Ryu Hyang is tactical genius?
Sunwu Cho Rin shook her head.
‘There’s definitely something else.’
Right.
There was something ’special’ that Cho Ryu Hyang had.
They couldn’t just attack because he seemed weak.
‘We’ll see what he has in time.’
Sunwu Cho Rin took a look at Sunwu Se Ok and smirked.
This guy definitely wouldn’t make his move especially when he became suspicious of something.
Of course, he was thinking carefully to himself now, but in the end, he wouldn’t do anything.
He was overly cautious when it came to things like this.
But even if the four families do not move, there were countless places that sought the death of Cho Ryu Hyang.
This was especially true, now that the four families went out to bait out these groups.
