[Itās been a while]. Itās been so long that I thought I forgot your voice. I heard that youāre going to another continent, but I think it is very rude that you have not contacted your loverā¦]
As soon as my name was called, a voice pressing me immediately came in and plugged me in. But this isnāt the first time heās talked to Jang Ye-ri. When she came to spend time with her village, she had had several correspondences with Mev and Lavia.
[Hmmā¦Hmm⦠Didnāt we talk about it once before?].
[Yes, we talked]. With your lovely Fairy and her daughter. If I donāt contact you first, will you not contact me for the rest of your life? I thought he was an indifferent man, but you are so indifferent. Itās so⦠Youāre saying that you donāt take care of the fish you caught. ]
I didnāt have much to say. This is because everything Jang Ye-ri said was true.
[Yes, go ahead and tell me your business]. My indifferent and lovely you. Didnāt you call me because you needed something else anyway? You are always like this. You always call me when you need me. Iām always sad about this side⦠Sometimes itās very sad. ]
If you come under pressure this way, you have nothing to say. Jang Ye-ri always shows a confident and independent appearance, but sometimes she gets me in trouble this way. Since she is the type who unexpectedly wants to be loved, it would not be bad to make a little cringe at her hands and feet.
[In fact, in todayās case, I called you because I had a business, but I didnāt forget you. I just couldnāt contact you because I was busy with work, so I hope youāll be patient. I also feel good to hear your beautiful voice. ]
[ ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦. ]
[Youāre always talkingā¦]⦠But I donāt feel bad. ]
Fortunately, I felt a little relieved. Anyway, I thought I could see Lee Wan-Yongās face in a little while because I had to go straight to the eastern city with Choi Eun-Joo.
[Itās not just words]. Iāll visit you there myself today. ]
There was also a voice that seemed overly excited. I felt very good, so my mood got better as well. In fact, the purpose was to pick up Lee Wan-Yong, but I thought it wouldnāt be bad to spend a little time while I was there.
[I will be preparing, dear. Since itās been a long time since Iāve come to the castle, Geukjin will treat you well. Hahaha⦠Only good things happen these days.]
I feel pretty up. It was a little burdensome for her to be overly hospitable, but seeing how much she liked Jang Ye-ri, she thought that she would have to go to the East a lot in the future. The earlier the schedule is, the better, so it would not be bad to take Baek A-yeon and have a meeting with Lee Wan-Yong, so he immediately called Baek A-Yeon and Choi Eun-Joo.
[Then Iāll go right away]. ]
[Hold on. Oh⦠Never mind. Your mind may change. I have something else to do, so I donāt think itās a bad idea to come to the city for now. Iāll prepare a room, so Lee Wan-Yong will guide you to spend a little time there. ]
After waiting a little longer, Choi Eun-Joo and Baek A-Yeon began to visit the room together. Standing in the room with a look of high expectation, the two quietly began to open their mouths.
āHoney, what brings youā¦ā
I opened my mouth looking at the two as it was good to pull out the iron horns.
āIāll stay in the eastern city for about a day. Letās get ready right away and then. Baek A-Yeon told Jeong Ha-yeon and Hakajin about this so that she could come back here. ā
Seeing Baek A-Yeon, who has already become more and more polite after the evolution, I felt that Baek A-Yeon definitely thought of me as a god. Choi Eun-jooās condition is no different than usual. Recently, when I was consulting about Elisha and Choi Eun-Joo, I was relieved because I had definitely said that what I had planted was in place, but personally, in my opinion, she wanted to believe me as her ex-husband, so she locked herself up.
Anyway, the two of them quickly went out and began to pack, but there was not much to take, but I felt uneasy to see Choi Eun-Joo taking my luggage together.
āWhere exactly are we going?ā
āItās the castle of the eastern metropolis of Garia.ā
The spell kicked in and the space started tearing apart and I stepped into it. An astonishing ability at all times. As far as I know, he is the only person on the continent with the ability to move space. It was very reassuring to have such a talented person under me. I looked at Choi Eun-Joo without realizing it, and she smiled brightly, and I was able to move to Garia, a large city in the east, holding Baek A-Yeon and Choi Eun-jooās hands.
Lee Wan-Yong was just biting his teeth with his fingernails. Because it didnāt feel like living these days. Itās not bad to work in the East. Rather, the workload was much lower than when I was on my brotherās land, and life was very comfortable.
I could eat a meal made by a top chef, and I could collect quite a lot of gold coins, so I sometimes went out of the city and splurged on money, but that was not the problem.
āWhat? Is there something on my face? ā
āOh, no, itās not.ā
It was because of Choi Seul-ki in front of his eyes. In fact, the conclusion of the alliance was completed that day, except for detailed provisions. Although various related miscellaneous tasks remained, it was not enough for a person in a position such as Choi Seul-ki in the north to handle them himself.
It was all about receiving the goods or goods that I was supposed to receive or organizing some documents, but it was naturally uncomfortable to see that I was here. Perhaps I will never leave this place until I check all the people named Kim Tae-sung in the east. That was why Lee Wan-Yong is working desperately now.
Because I thought she would disappear if I checked. Jang Ye-riās father, Jang Ki-young, made the management of the city a mess, so the proper management system was not established, so the time with this woman was getting longer. In fact, even though I could work alone, it was ridiculous to come here to cheer for me.
āDamn it⦠damn, itās⦠This is what the city looks like because a punk like Jang Ki-young was beating the king. The victory of the great Bloods is as planned. It was a mistake to choose the East from the beginning. ā
In the first place, the East did not recognize its ability. It was encouraging to be able to work in such an important position as I just lived my life as a slave merchant, but I refused to work with this woman.
It is natural that the nightmare-like memory still does not disappear, and every time I see Choi Seul-Kiās face, I felt numb and cold sweats, so I had no choice but to look at him like a rat in front of a snake.
āMr. Wan-Yong is really competent. I understand why the Queen of the East cares about Mr. Wan-Yong. Iām embarrassed, but it hasnāt been long since the resident registration system was established in the North⦠I didnāt expect you to do it this fast. Iād like to offer you an eastward scout sometime. Ha haā
āIām not going, you crazy girl. Iāll never go. I wonāt go even if you give me hundreds of millions. Iām not going.ā
I think itās even more creepy to see your smile smiling as if you donāt know anything. Lee Wan-yong quickly lowered his gaze after swearing once inside.
āItās an honor. āMr. Choi Seul-Ki.ā
ā You donāt have to keep being polite even though youāre old. Just call me Seul-Ki comfortably. ā
I almost spat out a curse word without realizing it. It wasnāt that I didnāt think that what happened at that time was a dream, but Lee Wan-Yong, who was quick to sense it, never thought it was a dream. Because it felt so vivid. Perhaps it is related to inherent capabilities. Thatās why Lee Wan-Yong doesnāt want to look into Choi Seul-Kiās eyes.
This is because I thought that the exercise of ability was to make eye contact.
āJust in case⦠Do you feel uncomfortable with me? ā
āItās uncomfortable. Yeah, itās uncomfortable. ā
The words inside and outside were completely different.
āNo, itās not. Itās not uncomfortable. But Iām more comfortable with honorifics. ā
Thatās when I thought I couldnāt hold out here any longer. The door opened and Park Han-chul appeared.
āExcuse me, Choi Seul-Ki. ā
ā Lee Wan-Yong. The Queen is calling. ā
There was no choice but to feel good inside. He didnāt usually sing it often, but Lee Wan-Yong seemed to have some business, so he jumped out of his seat and opened his mouth.
āAh! All right. Iāll be right there. Excuse me, Choi Seul-Ki.ā
I thought I could take a breather. With Choi Seul-Ki with a strange expression on his face, Lee Wan-Yong quickly began to head to the place where Queen Jang Ye-ri was in the east. Jang Ye-ri deliberately avoids herself after secretly mentioning that she wants to return to her brotherās land. This time, as soon as I entered Jang Ye-riās office, I decided, and what I could see was Jang Ye-ri surrounded by the servants of the castle.
āMy queen, I heard you called me.ā
Starting with the maid who does the hair and the women who do the makeup, the busy movement of clothes and underwear was like a battlefield. Her nanny, who had been told that she had raised Jang Ye-ri for a very long time, was also looking at Jang Ye-ri with a very serious look, and I felt an unusual energy.
āOh my! The queen is so pretty. ā
ā This nanny is very happy. You look good with that hairstyle, too. ā
ā Hmm⦠Thank you for the compliment. Nanny, but I donāt want to see a broken horn. ā
ā Heāll probably love that, too.ā
ā Thatās right, my queen is so beautiful. ā
ā Hmm⦠Iām very relieved that you feel that way, too. Iām glad youāre here⦠ā
Meaningless conversation, but I had no choice but to notice it right away. It was natural to see Jang Ye-ri looking like that.
āāFan ID,ā said! ā
Since you said you got a person who can move space, you must be coming to the castle. Or Jang Ye-ri thought she could go to the newly acquired East continent. Lee Wan-Yong tried to hide his smile of joy and opened his mouth again.
āJang Ye-ri! Iā¦I heard you sang it. ā
āAh⦠Yes, thatās what happened. My father said he was coming, so you should take him to the room first. Itās going to take a little more time over here, so Iām not sure, but maybe itās something you need to do, so youād better get ready to leave. What happened to the job you left? ā
ā Oh⦠Oh! Yes, Iām almost wrapping up. ā
ā Then thereās no problem. Maybe heāll come into the conference room. ā
Jang Ye-riās voice sounded like an angel.
