Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 117

**Chapter 117: Heart of stone in wooden body (2)**

“I don’t have my badge. Ah, you do have yours?”

“No.”

“Why don’t you have it?”

“He rotted, so I threw it away.”

“……What does that mean?”

Wei Yanho did not offer explanations. After five years in that wet cave, it was inevitable that the wood would rot. But there was no need to reveal his past to explain that.

“Without the badge you can’t pass…”

“Get out of the way.”

Wei Yanho took Seomun Dayeon by the arm and went ahead.

“What?”

The guard looked at him and became angry.

“Even if you had your badge, I can’t let you pass unless you can prove the identity of someone who doesn’t have it.

“Wait a minute.”

Wei Yanho took the guard’s arm.

“This guy?”

It was obvious that he was trying to drag him to a remote place.

“Ahem, if you have anything to say, say it quickly. I’m busy!”

“Yes?”

“This way!”

The guard started taking Wei Yanho.

“Huh?”

The guard took Wei Yanho to a place where no one could see them and extended his hand.

“Ten coins.”

“Ten coins?”

“Give it to me quickly and go! I’m busy!”

“Oh, yes.”

Wei Yanho pulled something out of his clothes and put it in the guard’s hand.

“What is this so heavy…”

The guard closed his mouth when he saw what was in his hand.

The guard’s face began to tremble when he saw the brightly shining little golden dagger.

It can’t be.

It can’t be.

Even if it is, isn’t it too much?

But after checking the design engraved on the dagger, the guard simply smiled.

“Hahahaha, Major.”

“Do I look older than you?”

“Rade is the important thing, isn’t the age you were born at?”

“It’s a good idea, but why would someone with a good idea like that do this?”

“Can I just tell you one thing?”

“Yes.”

The guard smiled and said:

“…forgive me.”

“Tsk.”

Wei Yanho walked out the front door and shook his head.

“I’m becoming a professional.”

Wei Yanho felt both cheerful and guilty after stealing even the emergency money hidden in the guard’s underwear.

While the fact that low-paid low-ranking officials accept bribes is something that has to be tolerated to some extent, it could not be ignored once it had been discovered.

Normally, their property should be confiscated, handed over to the authorities and punished, but since they only took the money they had, it could not be denied that it was a very merciful action.

“What did you do?”

“There are things like that.”

Wei Yanho gestured with his hand.

“Hmm…”

Seomun Dayeon stared at Wei Yanho, who was moving away.

‘Where did this guy come from?’

On second thought, it was very strange.

His abnormal martial ability for his age, his temperament so peculiar that it was surprising that he was not famous, and his ability to subject the guard immediately.

It was strange that someone like that was not known, either for good or for bad.

“What’s your father’s name?”

“Use Wei character, Jeong, and then Han.”

“Hmm, so… Sword of the Righteous Hero?”

“Didn’t I tell you before?”

Seomun Dayeon’s pupils trembled.

Now that she thinks about it, she remembers hearing something like that, but at the time she was surrounded by members of the cult, so she couldn’t pay attention to what Wei Yanho was saying.

“So, mister, you’re from Guangdong’s Wei family?”

“Yes.”

“What about the Demon Expulsor Sword, Wei Sanho?”

“He’s my big brother.”

“Ah…”

Seomun Dayeon looked at Wei Yanho with surprise.

If it weren’t for anything else, I now understood his abnormal martial ability for his age.

It was natural, being Wei Sanho’s brother.

Wei Sanho, who had made a breakthrough that had surprised his companions at the Academy of Martial Arts of the Academy of Agazaped Dragons, had become the best.

He is now known as the son of the Sword of the Righteous Hero, but in ten years, it is said that the Sword of the Righteous Hero will be known as the father of the Demon Expulsor Sword, Wei Sanho. Considering the position of the Sword of the Righteous Hero in the martial world, one could say that it is an unprecedented evaluation.

“Ah, young master, you are the brother of young master Wei.”

“Do you know my brother?”

“We’re partners in the academy.”

“So you’re my big sister?”

Seomun Dayeon gestured with his hand.

“No. The Academy of Martial Arts of the Academy of Agazaped Dragons does not admit students by age order, so even classmates may have different ages.”

“How old are you then?”

“…….”

Even if it were the martial world, asking about the age and name of a woman was rude. But seeing that Wei Yanho had no bad intentions, he replied obediently.

“I’m 20 years old.”

“Then you’re my big sister.”

The veins on Seomun Dayeon’s forehead swelled.

She says I’m 20, but she looks at me like I’m an old spinster!

Of course, according to normal standards, it was not strange that she had two children at that age, but she was a warrior.

In the martial world, it is generally accepted that people get married a little later.

“Didn’t you get married?”

“Why, why, why! Why do you care about my marriage?”

“Because I think you’re old enough.”

“I… I’ll take care of that myself!”

Seomun Dayeon’s face blushed.

Is this man not ashamed?

“Academy of Martial Arts…”

Seomun Dayeon was embarrassed, but Wei Yanho had already lost interest in her.

Now that he thinks about it, if it hadn’t been for that incident, he would have also entered the Academy of Martial Arts of the Academy of Agazaped Dragons.

Now it was a memory, but hearing that name again, he was curious to know what that place was like.

“There.”

But before he could ask, Seomun Dayeon pointed to a place.

It was a pretty big mansion.

“That’s the Xinyang branch of the Righteous Martial Alliance.”

“Even an organization like the Righteous Martial Alliance needs branches?”

“Of course. The Righteous Martial Alliance is a mediator. How could they mediate quickly if they were all alone in Luoyang? The principle is that sects handle matters in the branches first.”

“Hmm.”

Wei Yanho nodded as if he understood.

Seomun Dayeon, as if he could finally rest, ran to the branch door with a cheerful expression and called.

“Is anyone there?”

“Wait a minute.”

“Yes?”

Wei Yanho took Seomun Dayeon by the arm and stared inside the branch.

“How many people are inside the branch?”

“Well, at least a hundred, right?”

“There seems to be no one inside.”

“……yes? That’s impossible.”

“Oh, no, there’s a person, he’s dating now.”

“Yes?”

Seomun Dayeon wondered what Wei Yanho was saying, but soon after, he felt a presence from within, and the door opened with a crack.

“What do you need?”

A middle-aged man who appeared at the door asked, and Seomun Dayeon bowed slightly and spoke.

“I am Seomun Dayeon, from the Intelligence Section of the Righteous Martial Alliance of Sungcheon.”

“Oh, yes.”

The man looked at Seomun Dayeon from top to bottom.

“What do you need?”

He didn’t seem to believe her at all, as she hadn’t shown him anything to prove her identity.

“I have captured a member of the demonic cult.”

“Did he say he was a member of the demonic cult?”

“Yes. I captured a member of the demonic cult nearby, but I can’t transport him to the main headquarters alone, so I came to ask the branch for help.”

“Hmm, I understand what you’re saying…”

The man looked at Wei Yanho, Seomun Dayeon and Guo Huan, who was on Seomun Dayeon’s shoulders, with an expression of difficulty and sighed.

“Even if that’s true, I don’t think I can help you now.”

“Yes? Why, isn’t this the place of the Righteous Martial Alliance Xinyang branch?”

“That’s right, but we don’t have personnel now.”

“……don’t they have personnel?”

According to her knowledge, the branch of Xinyang was not small. Although it was near Luoyang, as it was the place that supervised the surroundings, there were always hundreds of people there. It was strange that there was no one there.

“Are you sure you’re from the intelligence section?”

“I lost my badge in the middle of a battle, so I can’t prove it. Can I prove my identity by answering your questions about the Alliance?”

“Good idea.”

After some questions and answers, the man nodded.

“It looks like it is.

“Yes.”

“And this one?”

“He helped me capture the demonic cult member.”

The man looked at Wei Yanho from top to bottom and turned again.

“Come in.”

Upon entering, they saw an empty mansion. Since it was such a large mansion and felt no presence, they felt a little uncomfortable.

“This way.”

The man led them to a guest room.

After sitting in the guest room, the man who brought the tea sat in front of them and showed up.

“I am Gongsonhyeong, in charge of the internal section of the Xinyang branch of the Righteous Martial Alliance of Sungcheon.”

“Ah, you’re Mr. Gongson. I’ve heard a lot about you.”

“Hahahaha, I know I’m not famous enough to be known by the Alliance.”

After exchanging compliments, they could have a proper conversation.

“But where did everyone go?”

“Well, before that…”

Gongsonhyeong suddenly got up, went somewhere, brought a thick iron chain and began to tie Guo Huan. After tying his hands and feet and putting a muzzle on him, he sat again with an expression of relief.

“If he is a member of the demonic cult, this is not enough.”

“Yes.”

“How did you capture a member of the demonic cult? If you are a member of the demonic cult, your martial ability should not be common.”

“It wasn’t me, it was him.”

“He?”

Gongsonhyeong looked back at Wei Yanho carefully, and then looked at Seomun Dayeon with an expression of disbelief.

‘He will not believe it.’

No one would believe that this guy, with a sick chicken face and falling asleep, had defeated a member of the demonic cult.

But that was the truth, what could I do?

“Khm, I see.”

Fortunately, Gongsonhyeong overlooked it thinking, ‘There must be some reason I can’t say.’

Speaking of which, what’s going on so that the branch is empty?

“Didn’t you hear it?”

“Yes?”

“A rumor has spread around here, haven’t you heard it on your way here?”

“I came in a hurry…”

The truth is that she was too embarrassed to look at others, so she could not pay attention to what others said.

“Then it’s understandable that you don’t know, in fact, there’s a strange rumor circulating around here.”

“… yes? A strange rumor.”

“It’s a rather absurd rumor…”

Gongsonhyeong said with a serious expression.

“There is a rumor that a manuscript of the ancestor has been discovered.”

“The ancestor?”

Seomun Dayeon gave a serious expression.

“So you mean that everyone on the branch went to that place just because a manuscript appeared? Members of the Righteous Martial Alliance branch of Sungcheon?”

Though furious, Gongsonhyeong responded with indifference.

“Even if you can’t understand it, you couldn’t be so calm if you knew what manuscript it is.”

“…… Which is it?”

Gongsonhyeong responded brilliantly in the eyes.

“It’s the Sword Emperor manuscript.”
