Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 302

Chapter 302: The Lazy One is Captured (2)

*Kuuung!*

Foam came out of Daehogun’s mouth, who was on the ground.

Those who saw his trembling legs felt sorry for him.

Even Jin Soah, who had been the most affected by Daehogun, couldn’t hide her compassion.

“Uh… Lord Wei.”

“What an insignificant bandit!”

“……Lord Wei?”

“Huh? Yes, watch. I’m going to crush him…”

Crush him more?

He was already so crushed that they feared his identity would become unrecognizable.

“Calm down!”

“Aaaaaah!”

Daehogun screamed in pain.

“Did something break?”

“It seems so.”

“We can’t call him Daehogun anymore. Should we call him Daehohu (Great Lady Tiger)?”

Jin Soah was disgusted to see them so calm. Even though they were warriors, how could they be so indifferent to seeing someone suffer so much?

“Enough! You’ll kill him!”

Wei Yanho tilted his head at Jin Soah’s shout.

“Shouldn’t he die?”

“Of course not!”

“Isn’t it good to kill a bandit?”

“…Huh?”

Thinking about it, yes.

Especially if it was the leader of Daehochae, who had done many bad things.

“But since I’m a doctor, I can’t watch someone die.”

“Soah!”

Jin Yeran looked at Jin Soah with admiration. When had her brother become such a confident doctor?

Jin Yeran was thrilled to see that her decision to let Jin Soah leave hadn’t been a mistake.

“What?”

But it didn’t work on Wei Yanho.

Wei Yanho scratched his ear and said:

“I understand what you’re saying. You don’t want us to hit him anymore, right?”

“Yes!”

Jin Soah said confidently.

“But I don’t have to listen to you just because you don’t want me to hit him.”

“…Huh?”

Confusion appeared on Jin Soah’s face.

“Are you angry because I was hit?”

“Yes.”

“But I don’t want you to hit him.”

Wei Yanho frowned.

“What are you saying?”

Wei Yanho explained, seeing Jin Soah confused:

“I’m angry because you were hit, but I hit them because I’m angry.”

“…R… right.”

“So I hit them until I calm down. What do you care?”

“I… is that so?”

He began to feel confusion about right and wrong.

At that moment, Daehogun raised his hand.

“Wow! You’re strong. Do you practice external martial arts?”

“I have something to say!”

Daehogun stood up and said confidently:

“Please forgive me!”

“Bah!”

Wei Yanho threw his shoe. Daehogun, who rolled on the ground, crawled towards Wei Yanho and clung to his legs.

“I didn’t know! It was my subordinates!”

“Superiors are responsible for the actions of subordinates.”

“Lord! If my subordinates did something wrong, why am I responsible?”

“Tsk tsk tsk.”

Wei Yanho clicked his tongue.

“What do superiors do? Do they stay Lazy and not take responsibility? Superiors are responsible, therefore…”

“Wait!”

Daehogun shined his eyes.

“Did you say superiors are responsible?”

“Huh?”

“Then I’m not responsible! King Nokrim is above me!”

“…”

Everyone’s eyes trembled.

Daehogun retracted upon seeing those cold looks.

‘What did I say?’

Selling out your boss to survive isn’t something that looks good. Even the Demon Cult wouldn’t do it.

“That member of the dark martial arts…”

“It’s a despicable action.”

“He has no excuses.”

“We can leave him to King Nokrim. Why get our hands dirty?”

Not only Wei Yanho’s group, but others were also looking at Daehogun coldly.

‘No.’

Daehogun, realizing that he had made things worse by speaking, looked at Wei Yanho with trembling eyes.

But Wei Yanho nodded.

“That makes sense!”

“What?”

“What?”

Although the group was surprised, Wei Yanho nodded seriously.

“If superiors are responsible, we must go all the way.”

“Brat, does that mean if an official does something wrong, it’s the emperor’s fault?”

“Yes.”

“…Huh?”

Wei Yanho nodded confidently.

“Of course, it’s the fault of whoever couldn’t control their subordinates. You shouldn’t be in a position of power if you’re not prepared to take responsibility. You must take responsibility for your subordinates’ mistakes. That’s what it means to be in a position of power!”

Wei Jeonghan hesitated at Wei Yanho’s confident gaze.

“So you’ll also take responsibility if you’re in a position of power?”

“What a silly question!”

Wei Yanho frowned.

“That’s why I’m unemployed!”

“…It’s admirable.”

“Taking responsibility is taking a position. You shouldn’t take a position if you don’t want to take responsibility…”

“Damn it!”

Wei Jeonghan threw his shoe, but Wei Yanho dodged it, and Daehogun was hit.

“We came to see King Nokrim, so we’ll see him.”

Wei Jeonghan nodded without saying anything.

He didn’t know why things were happening like this…

‘Anyway, that guy will only cause problems. It’s better to achieve the goal quickly.’

It was good that things were progressing quickly.

“Where is King Nokrim?”

Daehogun looked at Wei Jeonghan in disbelief.

Why were these guys changing their minds so quickly?

“Do you want to keep getting beaten?”

“There!”

He didn’t need to think. Daehogun pointed to the main house. Wei Yanho nodded.

“Guide me.”

“Yes!”

Daehogun stood up, not showing his pain. He feared Wei Yanho would do something if he showed his pain.

“…But.”

“Huh?”

“King Nokrim isn’t feeling well, so…”

Daehogun’s eyes were full of anxiety. A normal person wouldn’t hit someone with too much internal energy, but Wei Yanho was different.

There was no telling what he would do.

“Don’t worry. I’ll avoid it.”

“Lord Wei!”

Daehogun was about to cry.

Wei Jeonghan, who was known as Nokrim’s enemy, was now protecting him from Wei Yanho.

It was touching.

‘As expected of the Sword of the Righteous Hero.’

Daehogun thought his nickname wasn’t in vain.

“This way.”

When they started walking towards the main house, Wei Yanho’s group followed them, and the bandits made way.

Their eyes were full of fear.

‘Ugh.’

He was about to cry.

Having been beaten in front of everyone, how could he maintain his authority?

‘If it weren’t for that guy…’

Daehogun decided to find the person who suggested healing King Nokrim and feed him to the tigers.

Daehogun arrived at the deepest room of the main house and coughed.

“Once again, King Nokrim isn’t feeling well…”

“You talk a lot.”

“…….”

“There are doctors and experts here, and they know more than you. Open the door.”

Why is he saying that?

He has no common sense!

Although he wanted to say something, he couldn’t. Daehogun closed his eyes and opened the door.

Wei Yanho and his group entered. He didn’t know why so many had to enter, but he couldn’t say anything for fear of being beaten.

“Eh…”

Wei Yanho tilted his head as he entered.

The room wasn’t luxurious. How luxurious can a bandit’s room be? It seemed like they had tried to decorate it…

“As expected of a bandit.”

“…I agree.”

It would have been better if it had been simple, but it looked vulgar due to its pretense.

The highlight of the pretense was the bed.

A man was lying on a large bed adorned with golden silk with embroidery. Wei Yanho touched his chin in disgust.

“Where is King Nokrim?”

“There…”

“That person?”

“……Yes.”

“That person?”

“…….”

Daehogun went silent, and Wei Yanho tilted his head, not understanding.

“That old man is King Nokrim?”

Wei Yanho pointed at the bed with irritation, and Daehogun could only smile.

An emaciated old man was lying on the bed. His sunken eyes and the freckles on his face showed his condition.

It was hard to imagine that he was King Nokrim.

Wei Yanho asked seriously:

Shouldn’t we look for a funeral home instead of a doctor?

“You damn brat!”

Wei Jeonghan hit Wei Yanho’s head.
