Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 332

## Chapter 332: The Loafer is Imprisoned (2)

“Haaam.”

Wei Yanho yawned widely.

“Ah, so comfortable.”

Wei Yanho threw himself onto the soft pile of straw on the floor and wriggled around.

*Crack crack*.

The sound of his bones creaking indicated that his back was very comfortable. Wei Yanho stretched his arms, yawned, and lay back on the ground.

“Hey.”

“…Yes.”

“Is there anything refreshing?”

“Would you like some cold tea?”

“That would be great. Please.”

“…Yes.”

Wei Yanho was polite.

The guest hall of the imperial palace was comfortable, but this place was also nice. In fact, this place was more comfortable. The guest hall was more physically comfortable, but it felt uncomfortable because of the excessive treatment.

Besides, he felt the urge to enjoy the moment, as he didn’t know when he would be kicked out.

But here, there was no such urgency.

He could enjoy the moment. And this atmosphere was familiar to him.

The damp walls and moss…

“Horrible.”

It was horrible, but Wei Yanho had spent five years in a worse place.

Although he didn’t want to admit it, he had grown fond of the cave, and this place felt comfortable to him.

Besides, there was plenty of food and drink, what could be better?

“And my master isn’t here.”

Wei Yanho turned over.

‘Master…’

Wei Yanho’s expression changed.

He always felt various emotions when he thought of his master.

Longing.

Annoyance.

And…

‘I miss that old man.’

Wei Yanho stared at the ceiling sadly.

When they were together, Wei Yanho wanted to kill him. He suffered a lot from his violence and cruelty.

But affection turns into fondness, and now that his master had died, Wei Yanho felt his absence.

‘He should have lived longer.’

If he had seen Wei Yanho traveling the martial world, he would have smiled proudly and said, ‘That brat didn’t suffer enough.’

“Maybe it’s better that he died.”

For his own good.

Wei Yanho sighed:

“Foolish master.”

He didn’t even know that he was called the Sword Emperor. If he had known earlier…

“Well, nothing would have changed.”

If he had known, he would have had more trouble, but he didn’t need to tell anyone. He had noticed that his master was very powerful since he appeared in the martial world.

Even the most powerful experts would be defeated by his master.

Even Wei Yanho, who had become powerful by suffering for five years, could only look for ways to suffer less when his master was serious.

The Supreme Sovereign and the Sword Sage would be taught by his master.

‘That’s why he was called the Sword Emperor.’

He heard that his master was the best in the world, but that was wrong.

‘The best, nonsense.’

He was the best in the universe.

They said that the Heavenly Demon was comparable to his master, but that was because the Heavenly Demon hadn’t met his master.

If the Heavenly Demon had met his master, he would have been a heavenly horse, not a heavenly demon. His master would have ridden him.

That’s what someone who didn’t meet his master would think.

It’s not about pride for his master. The more Wei Yanho traveled through the martial world, the more he realized how powerful his master was.

‘He’s not human.’

Even if there were a hundred Wei Yanhos, they would be defeated by his master. His master would even be happy to have so many to beat.

He was the Sword Emperor because he was good despite being a prankster and a bully. If he had been more evil, he would have been the Demon Sword, not the Heavenly Demon.

Those who weren’t beaten by the Sword Emperor compare the Heavenly Demon to his master.

“Then…”

Surpass him?

“You must give me tasks that I can do, master.”

Wei Yanho touched his stomach sadly.

The core inside him was forcing him to become stronger. Although surpassing his master is the greatest achievement of a master… asking his disciple to surpass him is child abuse.

Well, his master was a child abuser.

In that sense…

“Hey?”

“Huh?”

“Isn’t the cold tea here yet?”

“…”

“And I’m hungry because I’m touching my stomach, bring me more food.”

“…Yes.”

The guard was trembling.

‘Does he have a demon in his stomach?’

He had already eaten enough for several people, why does he want more? He has good digestion.

“Can I ask something?”

“Huh?”

“I can ask something.”

“First, bring me the cold tea.”

“…Someone went to get it.”

“Then, ask.”

The guard swallowed and asked:

“I heard you were arrested for treason.”

“Yes, I think so.”

“But you seem very comfortable.”

“Because I am.”

“…”

The guard’s eyes began to tremble:

“You’re comfortable being arrested for treason? If it’s true, you’ll be executed soon. How can you be comfortable?”

“Hahahaha.”

Wei Yanho laughed calmly:

“I don’t die that easily.”

At that moment, he heard a voice:

“Of course not.”

The guard and Wei Yanho turned their heads.

The guard bowed quickly. His face was pale.

‘Nok Gong Gong!’

Nokgi was entering.

Nokgi, Nok Gong Gong. To be exact, he should be called Nok Taegam, the head of Dongchang, also known as East Palace. But most in the imperial palace called him Nok Gong Gong.

The living power of the imperial palace.

Nokgi, who could make birds tremble and destroy mountains with a gesture, appeared in the imperial dungeon.

‘It had never happened.’

Many had been imprisoned in the imperial dungeon, but Nokgi had never visited any of them.

Even the followers and enemies of Nokgi had been there, but he had never come.

That was happening now.

“Greetings to Nok Gong Gong.”

“Leave.”

“But…”

“Are you going to make me repeat it?”

The guard, pale, lowered his head:

“I will immediately.”

Nokgi smiled mysteriously at Wei Yanho after the guard left. They faced each other through the bars. Wei Yanho was still lying on the ground.

“Is there anything bothering you?”

“People are hypocritical.”

“Huh?”

“When you sit, you want to lie down, and when you lie down, you want to sleep. Now that I’ve slept a lot, the bed is uncomfortable. The straw is soft, but rough.”

“Hahahaha! Yes, right. You shouldn’t sleep poorly. I’ll put a comfortable bed in your dungeon. It’s an honor. You’re the first to have a bed here.”

“Hehehe, thank you for your consideration.”

“Do you know who I am?”

“Yes.”

“Who am I?”

“Eunuch King… no, Nok Taegam.”

Eunuch King?

It seemed like he had left something unsaid… Nokgi wondered what it was.

“Yes, you know it well.”

“Yes.”

“Do you have anything to say?”

“No, not really. We don’t know each other well enough to talk.”

“True.”

Nokgi nodded slowly:

“But I know you well. I’ve been following you since you ruined my plan.”

“You have a bad habit. Obsession is not good.”

“Hahahaha, thank you for the advice. You really deserve to be called a hero.”

“Huh?”

“If you escape.”

“……”

“At your age, you will become the most powerful warrior in the world. You will have a lot of honor.”

“I don’t think that will happen.”

“Do you know I’m not joking?”

“…”

Nokgi smiled:

“If you don’t die here, it’s likely to happen. But you are a traitor, and your bright future has disappeared.”

“I won’t die.”

“Hahahaha!”

Nokgi laughed loudly.

It was a loud laugh, but his high-pitched voice was annoying.

“If you trust Yi Wangya, you should wake up.”

Wei Yanho frowned. Nokgi smiled at seeing that:

“Yi Wangya has a lot of influence over His Majesty. But he has no power in this. It’s an assassination. He will have to prove that he is not involved with you. Or he will lose his life.”

Wei Yanho smiled:

“People in the imperial palace think strangely.”

“Huh?”

“I don’t expect anything from him. I don’t expect anything.”

“Then how are you sure you won’t die?”

“I am a warrior of the martial world.”

“Warrior of the martial world?”

Wei Yanho nodded strongly:

“My father said that warriors of the martial world live by loyalty, and that loyalty is beyond the laws of the world. Supreme loyalty is beyond the laws of the world.”

“Oh?”

“So my friends won’t abandon me. They will come to rescue me.”

“As expected.”

Nokgi nodded strongly:

“Those friends are them?”

Nokgi pointed behind him, and Wei Jeonghan and the others entered through the dark hallway.

“Father!”

Wei Yanho jumped up:

“As expected! You’ve come to rescue me!”

Wei Jeonghan replied calmly:

“No. I was also arrested.”

“……”

Wei Yanho looked at Nokgi after seeing that Wei Jeonghan’s hands were tied.

Wei Yanho smiled and asked Nokgi, who was smiling:

“…What should I do to survive, Taegam?”

“Kneel.”

“…”

Wei Yanho knelt.
