Surviving the Romance Fantasy

For Seoltaepyeong, the sword zone that cuts down any expert or monster, the only choice is to move forward.

– Ta-da-da-da-da-dak!

‘Die… Really dying… !’

Seol Taepyeong was currently running amok, feeling the fear of death.

The maids passing by looked dumbfounded as they saw Seol Taepyeong running out across the harem.

The brave military officer who cut off Ilgwi Pyeongyang’s head ran away with eyes full of fear.

Even the maids were terrified as to what had happened.

In this way, Seol Taepyeong worked hard to reach the middle gate, but the maids of Jujak Palace were already stationed around him.

“… “Huh.”

“I was waiting. Seol unmanned. “Eat it as Suzakgung.”

“It looks like something big is happening in the active room. “As the owner of the active room, I think I should go quickly.”

“Still, let’s go see your wife for a little while. “The queen herself gave this order.”

The royal family is ranked first in royal protocol.

However, no matter how much she is the crown princess of a country, there is no such thing as telling a general-level official what to do. The hierarchy of protocol does not symbolize all power.

Should I say it is the relationship between the company commander and the sergeant major?

Obviously, in the hierarchy of protocols, even if the owner of the four major palaces is ahead, they respect each other and do not go so far as to try to bind the other with orders.

However, if Queen In had decided to tie up Seol Taepyeong, we cannot shake our heads at that order. It becomes a challenge to the hierarchy of Cheongdo Palace.

You wouldn’t know it when the two of you are alone, but if you blatantly ignore the Queen Mother’s orders in a place where there are so many eyes and ears to hear, it could lead to big trouble.

Seol Taepyeong swallowed dry saliva for a moment, then nodded as he looked at the condition of the maids gathered around him.

As I headed toward the palace, I saw another opportunity and had no choice but to take advantage of the opportunity and run away while no one was watching.

It was then.

“Before that, I think you should stop by the White Tiger Palace first. “Let’s head to Suzaku Palace after that.”

There was a person coming in from the other side of the middle gate, carrying various items.

It was Yerim, the head maid of Baekho Palace, arranging her maid’s uniform with her pure white hair flowing down.

“yes? But Lady In… .”

“It seems like there’s a problem with the ghost-blocking amulet in the White Tiger Palace… I need someone to take care of me urgently. General Vice-General also holds the position of internal inspector, and he inspected the interior several times while working at Baekseon Palace, so I think he will be able to review it quickly. “It won’t take long.”

‘Is there suddenly a rope of salvation here?’

Seol Taepyeong thought so, then quickly shook his head.

The situation could not have been much different at the White Tiger Palace. Now, the most important priority is to escape from the concubine.

In the worst, worst case scenario, would it be right to overturn the palace hierarchy and everything else and run away? That too is an act of risking one’s life. It seemed right to wait and see the situation for now.

“Your Majesty’s calling may have great meaning, but the problem with the White Tiger Palace’s ghost-catching amulet is directly related to your safety. This is especially true when times are noisy due to special reasons, such as recently. so… “I would like you to give in for a moment at the Suzaku Palace.”

Although it is important for a queen to discuss personal matters, it cannot take priority over public security duties within the palace.

If such a justification is brought up, no matter how much the maid represents the will of the Prince’s palace, she will not be able to raise her voice.

“then… “When the work is finished, please come to Suzaku Palace.”

In the end, I had no choice but to take a step back from the palace.

Following behind the head maid Yerim of the Baekho Palace, Seol Taepyeong was spinning her head like crazy again.

Although he was able to avoid being captured by the maids and heading to the Suzaku Palace, there was no guarantee that he would be safe even though it was the White Tiger Palace.

At this point, when it is almost certain that all the crown princesses have been attacked by the White Ghost, entering the White Tiger Palace is in fact an act of suicide.

However, White Tiger Palace is relatively located on the outskirts of the concubine. Once you get there, if you time it right and cut down a few walls, you can go out to the main palace.

Once you leave the harem, you can run straight to the active room, so as soon as you enter the courtyard of the White Tiger Palace, you can use the bathroom as an excuse to run away.

The plan is perfect.

However, plans are always perfect. Until you get hit.

“Oh, the deputy general heard it.”

Surprisingly, Ha Deokbi revealed his face as soon as he entered the entrance to the Baekho Palace courtyard. There is no time to run away or sleep.

Deokbi Howol usually doesn’t go out of the White Tiger Palace, but today she was outside the yard, looking up at the branches of the plum tree.

Why today? Why did they summon Seol Taepyeong now under the pretext of using the White Tiger Palace’s ghost-catching talisman?

Seol Taepyeong, whose mind was already strained to its limit, slowly took a step back, shedding a cold sweat.

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen Seol’s face. But… “Your complexion doesn’t look very good.”

“Ha, ha Deokbi. Well, I thought that was… .”

“Coincidentally, I was summoned at a time when I was not feeling well. However, this was also an urgent matter, so please understand.”

A little worry appears on Ha Deok-bi’s face as he says that. However, he was not a person who could express that openly.

From her point of view, since Seol Taepyeong’s complexion was not good, the biggest consideration was to let him rest quickly.

“I heard that the activation room is busy, so after checking the amulet, grab a cup of tea and go right away. Since it is an amulet that was placed by Baekseon, it would be most efficient for you to examine it yourself.”

Saying so, Ha Deok-bi dragged her maids across the yard to take care of her business.

He Debi, the owner of White Tiger Palace, was busy. In fact, since he also had to play the influential role of the sealer, there were many tasks that had to be taken care of every day.

Of course, Deputy General Seol Tae-pyeong was a person of note, but even so, if the inside of Seal Haga was not examined, the guests and guests would be lost.

Seol Taepyeong’s eyes widened as he saw Deokbi Ha heading to the palace, thinking about his own business.

‘… !’

Ha Deokbi is fine.

Ha Deokbi… I haven’t been defeated by a hundred ghosts yet… !

“Please help me, Deokbi Ha.”

Seol Taepyeong, who quickly finished inspecting the amulet inside Baekho Palace, entered the tea room.

And he said this while sitting on the opposite side of the aisle and lowering his head.

Ha Deok-bi, who was examining the ledger of the sealed Ha family, was surprised to see Seol Tae-pyeong like that, slightly widening his eyebrows.

“… Lunar New Year unmanned?”

“The owners of the other palaces are in a strange condition right now. “If this continues, I will be dead.”

Ha Deok-bi suddenly changed his complexion and put down his brush when he saw Seol Tae-pyeong saying that.

For a moment, you suspect that they are using some kind of trick to lure you out. Since I was a person whose doubts had become a habit, I couldn’t help it.

However, if you step back and think about it, Seol Taepyeong was not a person who stabbed others in such a mean way.

Although there are times when they fight or exchange stories in a calculated manner, they are not the type of people who openly use tricks like this.

“W-what did you mean… ?”

“Currently, among the owners of the Four Great Palaces, Ha Deok-bi is the only one who remains sane.”

“Wouldn’t you like me to understand if you explained it in detail?”

“That is… .”

Seol Taepyeong hesitated, lowered his gaze, and spoke with difficulty.

“If you see it for yourself… You will know… .”

Ha Deok-bi brushed away her flowing hair once.

I’m not sure what Daejojeol Seol Taepyeong is talking about, but looking at his condition and expression, he looks very desperate.

‘… .’

Ha Deok-bi is an opportunist. And if they can get power and authority in their hands, they are the ones who will use any means possible.

‘This… ‘This is an opportunity to take advantage of Deputy General Seol Taepyeong’s weakness.’

Negotiation can only be done when both parties are equal.

I don’t know why, but it seems that Vice General Seol Taepyeong’s life is in danger. In this situation, Deokbi Ha can take the lead.

A genius opportunity to take advantage of Deputy General Seol Tae-pyeong, who could not see a single weakness no matter how hard he washed his eyes and searched… !

If you think about it, now might not be the time to look at Sealing Hagar’s ledger.

It may be that luck and timing coincided, and Emperor Cheon gave Xia Debi the opportunity to capture General Bu.

Deokbi Ha closed the ledger and pushed it aside, then cleared his throat with a sigh.

“I am the owner of the White Tiger Palace. “No matter how urgent your situation is, there’s nothing wrong with telling me to do this or that—”

Ha Deok-bi was about to start crying in earnest, but instead looked at Seol Tae-pyeong’s face again.

The sight of him sweating profusely made him look like he had been on the verge of death.

The courageous general who never once trembled in front of Ilgwi Pyeongyang looked so perplexed.

Is the situation much more serious than expected?

However, isn’t that all Seol Taepyeong’s situation?

In any case, since this advantageous situation has been created, it is right for Ha Deok-bi to make the most of this situational advantage.

This is a chance for a genius to step on the ropes and raise his own value. Throwing away a fully prepared dinner table is something a tactician would never do.

However, Seol Tae-pyeong’s expression looks very perplexed-

“… .”

Ha Deok-bi paused for a moment and swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.

Grab hold of Seol Taepyeong, who is cornered, and swing him around.

Use your cooperation as a weapon and use your tongue to get something from him.

That is the way of sealing.

“… .”

“… .”

“… So, what can I do?”

Deokbi Ha bit his lower lip and sighed.

Although it is important to weigh the interests of others, it seemed better to extend a hand to Seol Taepyeong’s unstable situation.

This is also sowing seeds for future recovery.

Ha Deok-bi listened to Seol Tae-pyeong’s story without even realizing that such thoughts were self-justification.

“If my prediction is correct… Sooner or later, the White Ghost will appear.”

The fact that Ha Deokbi was still intact meant that Baekgwi was still wandering around the concubine.

then… Ha Deokbi was the most important key to bringing out the White Ghosts.

Lee Ryeong, the head maid, entered Cheonokjeong accompanied by Seolran.

This is because he thought that if he performed a magic trick using the clear water of the Cheonokjeong, he would be able to remove the delusion spell that was disturbing the heart of the Princess Cheondo.

Of course, it takes quite some time. If I wanted to return Princess Cheondo to her original state as quickly as possible, I had to work hard from now on.

“Pour fresh water into the canteen. “I will inform Taoist Ahn of the main palace of the situation and ask him to prepare a medicinal bath to drive away the delusion of Princess Cheondo.”

“Yes, Chief Maid.”

Seolran followed with a canteen and quickly scooped up Cheonokjeong’s fresh water.

Originally, the number of people allowed to enter the Heavenly Okjeong was extremely limited.

Even if she was a high-ranking maid, she was not allowed to enter Cheonokjeong, the most mysterious place in Cheonryongchae, unless it was an emergency like this.

Therefore, it was not the beginning of Cheonokjeong, but it was my first time entering this deep place, and it was also my first time seeing the waterfall of Cheonokjeong, which I had only heard about, flowing.

Of course, because the situation is so urgent, there is no time to observe the inside.

After carrying the fresh water with the head maid, Yi-ryeong, I just looked up at the large waterfall for a moment.

“Seol maid. “There is no time, so come to your senses!”

A bluish light appears in Seolran’s eyes for a moment as she looks up at the waterfall while holding a water bottle, and then disappears.

It happened so quickly that the head maid could not even notice the strange feeling.

Surviving on Ropan Episode 117

just(1)

A yogi whose body is full of rotten flesh and evil spirits.

Veins are sticking out around the corners of the eyes, where only the whites remain, and the once pretty appearance has suddenly become grotesque.

There was a time when the whole world bowed its head and looked up to her.

The person who sacrificed himself for the world was abandoned like a devoted partner.

The rampant ghosts continued to cover the outskirts of the imperial capital even when the Princess of Cheondo changed, but those who drove out Princess Ahyeon did not think much about it.

It would be nice if I could blame the miserable reality on someone else. If that is the will of the people, Princess Ahyeon also decided not to live for the world any longer.

No, rather, he wanted revenge on the world.

* * *

* * *

What if it means a reverse demon that will devour the world? In Princess Ahyeon’s eyes, this world is not worth protecting.

Ungrateful things. Those who are foolish and ignorant.

A world full of such idiots will only produce unhappy and sad people. It is clear that it would look much more beautiful in the eyes of the Emperor if it burned away.

So, let’s all escape from the shackles of this meaningless life.

Let’s admit our ignorance and give up a life filled with pain.

Let’s roughly leave the future world to the coming evil spirit, and throw away everything in life that has no meaning or value.

Just like that, Ahyeon, a white spirit swayed by vanity and madness, passes through the corridors of the White Tiger Palace.

♪ ♬ ♩

I was humming a song that I had hardly ever sung during my time as Princess of Cheondo.

Shaking off the feathers of Cheonryongchae’s gorgeous and antique court uniform, he trudges across the crowd of maids.

The maids of the White Tiger Palace do not even try to stop the monster. Just by making eye contact, my entire body stops moving due to the magic that surrounds me.

The last special ghost of the reverse ghost, Baekgwi Ahyeon.

Princess Ahyeon in the first episode.

From Noble mtl dot com

The ghost of the past, who had even accepted the spirit of reverse return, was inheriting all the abilities of the prime ministers of the four palaces in their prime.

In numerous episodes, the owners of each palace had their peak moments where they showed off their abilities to the best of their ability.

All of that power was engraved in the eyes of the demon. And, by gathering all the memories from that time, he was able to create the greatest masterpiece that the monster had ever created, Hundred Ghosts.

The martial arts and delusion techniques practiced by Jin Suk-bi in his prime, the falling flower sword, Jeokseon sword, archery and horsemanship practiced by Queen Jin in his prime, the perfect memory ability in the Hoyeonbobeop shown by Po Hyeon-bi in his prime, and the mental pain possessed by Ha Deok-bi in his prime. Even the alcohol of (心洞).

Since he is even dealing with the energy of the Heavenly Dragon, which is said to be allowed only to the owner of the Heavenly Dragon Hall, there is no guarantee that he will be able to demonstrate his power in front of him even if he brings in a line of famous Taoists.

A level of sensual arts that can only be reached if one is filled with the power of a ghost. The level was already at a level where even famous Taoists like the late Baekseon Lee Cheol-un could not guarantee superiority.

If a Taoist master who had been twisted by the spirit of a ghost appeared, would this be what it would look like?

– Woe!

The collar of White Ghost’s sleeve fluttered once.

With a single wave of the hand, the maids guarding the White Tiger Palace all lost consciousness and fell down.

– Thump, thump, thump.

Deokbi Howol was sitting alone in one corner of the tea room at Baekho Palace.

Yerim, the loyal head maid, was also sent away. I just look at the steam rising from the teacup on the small table.

The sun is slowly setting.

After swallowing that monologue once, he flicked his fingertips and lit the lantern.

– Boom, boom, boom.

The sound of footsteps approaching from the hallway outside the tea room was getting louder.

– Grumble

Eventually, when the door to the tea room opened, there was a strange-looking monster standing there.

In the hallway behind it, many maids were lying unconscious.

“Seol Mu-in headed to Baekho Palace. There seemed to be a problem with the demon-blocking amulet blocking the area near the White Tiger Palace, so it seemed more urgent to check it.”

“… .”

Queen In, who was waiting for Seol Taepyeong at the entrance to the palace, had a very dark expression on her face.

The face that always looked noble and elegant was full of anxiety. The look of worry filled heart was very different from usual.

“my… “I have to go see the Lunar New Year in person.”

“Your Majesty… .”

Ahyeon, a white spirit, was a ghost who could take people’s perceptions into his hands and manipulate them as he pleased.

Even with a decent amount of mental strength, it was difficult to easily resist that delusion technique.

In the end, without even remembering that he was attacked by a white ghost… Queen In had to endure the ever-growing anxiety in her heart.

The magic of the White Ghost penetrates into people’s unstable hearts.

Desire for exclusivity, guilt, anxiety, uncertainty, self-denial, fear, etc… He grabs hold of the negative emotions that eat away at people’s hearts and shakes them to his will.

Once I was in its clutches, there was no way to resist. In the end, as he plays with the will of the white ghosts, he gradually loses his self-control and has no choice but to move based on his instincts.

It’s not just Ingwibi who falls into that trap.
