Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 428

## Chapter 428: The Lazy Bum is Strange (3)

Wei Jeonghan realized that people can criticize with their eyes.

Otherwise, he couldn’t explain the looks he was getting.

“No, that’s not it…”

He understood that he should explain, but what could he say?

Since Tang Cheongun realized that he couldn’t speak, he spoke instead:

“…Did you say that?”

“N… no, it was a misunderstanding. I mean…”

Wei Jeonghan desperately began searching for an excuse.

“Why did you say that? Don’t you know your son? Haven’t you learned anything after going through all that?”

Yes, I learned.

A lot.

But this situation is different…

When Wei Jeonghan hesitated, Tang Cheongun clicked his tongue:

“Probably the Master of Divine Abilities asked you to put on a show of strength.”

“……”

“And that guy is perfect for that. If you leave him alone, he’ll stay in his room doing nothing, so you let him cause trouble.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Don’t apologize. Since you both have your own goals. But…”

Tang Cheongun turned his neck:

“You like to beat around the bush. If you wanted that, you should have asked Wei Yanho to help you. Who knows Wei Yanho’s power better than I do? Help me recover my power. Then, I will consider the words of the Righteous Martial Alliance first.”

“Yes, leader. If I had known that you thought that way of Wei Yanho, I wouldn’t have done this.”

‘This guy, he shouldn’t say that.’

Although he said it politely, that means that if he had known that Tang Cheongun feared Wei Yanho, he would have taken another path.

‘Like father, like son.’

Tang Cheongun planned to fully cooperate with the Righteous Martial Alliance if things went well. He didn’t want the Master of Divine Abilities to send the Weis again.

Just seeing them made him feel like his life was shortening.

“Yes, that’s right…”

Tang Cheongun tilted his head:

“But I still don’t understand. Why did it have to be the Jegal family? He could have caused trouble within the Tang family. I don’t think that guy would have stayed still.”

“…It seems you don’t look at my son favorably.”

“Remember what you told your son. I understand that only you can scold your son, but your son is no longer under your control. It’s time to let him go.”

“Do you want me to let him be humiliated?”

“Khm, can it be said like that?”

Tang Cheongun avoided the topic.

Wei Jeonghan was frustrated, but he couldn’t get angry with Tang Cheongun. They were of different ranks.

Wei Jeonghan can talk to Tang Cheongun as an equal thanks to his son.

“So, you don’t know the reason either.”

“Yes. No one knows what that guy is thinking. There are two people who understand him, but one seems to be dead, and the other…”

Wei Jeonghan sighed:

“If Wei Sanho were here, I wouldn’t be so frustrated.”

“Cheer up.”

“Yes, I must cheer up.”

Wei Jeonghan shook his head:

“No matter how much you analyze Wei Yanho, you won’t find the answer. He is very quiet, and he won’t talk even if you put a knife to his neck.”

“Isn’t there anyone who dares to put a knife to his neck?”

“Perhaps.”

Wei Jeonghan smiled and said:

“What is the Jegal family’s reaction?”

“…That’s the problem.”

“Huh?”

Tang Cheongun sighed deeply. When Wei Yanho is involved, something is always wrong.

“If a stranger broke in and caused trouble, they should be looking for him, but there is no reaction.”

“You said there’s no reaction?”

“Yes. I don’t know everything that’s going on there, so there might be something they’re planning. But it doesn’t seem like they’re doing anything. Normally, they would ask for help, but there are no signs.”

That was strange.

The problem was big, but there were no consequences. That was strange.

“If it were another clan, we could torture some of their members to get information, but the Jegal family is very mysterious, and they will never reveal important information.”

“So, we don’t know anything for sure.”

“That’s right.”

Jangil, who had been observing the situation, said:

“Can I ask a question?”

“You’re a fool. What?”

“I can’t find the topic of this conversation. What are you talking about?”

“Huh?”

“Is it so important that Wei Yanho caused trouble? Doesn’t it always happen?”

“Tsk tsk.”

Irritation appeared on Tang Cheongun’s face. Jangil shuddered at Tang Cheongun’s gaze.

“You’re a fool. The leader of the Beggar Sect must be worried.”

“The leader is worried, but what don’t I know?”

“Hey, fool.”

“Yes.”

“Experts are not fools.”

“…Huh?”

“That’s right. It’s something that can be known through experience. There are no foolish experts in the martial world. They are all incredibly intelligent.”

“No, that…”

“It’s natural. At first, martial arts are learned with the body, but then with the mind. At first, physical strength is important, but intelligence is more important as you level up. Those with strength but little intelligence cannot advance. In other words, those who are considered great masters have incredible intelligence.”

“I understand.”

“What do you think of Wei Yanho?”

“E… then…”

Jangil fell silent.

If he says Wei Yanho is a fool, he will be criticized, and if he says he is intelligent, it will feel strange.

“He must be intelligent. More than we think.”

“Logic and the situation say so, but I don’t want to admit it.”

“It doesn’t matter whether you admit it or not. The important thing is that it’s true. Wei Yanho is lazy. Incredibly lazy. But that lazy bum moved to eliminate the Jegal family.”

“Isn’t it just speculation? We can accept that he simply wanted to do it.”

“…That’s right.”

“…”

A cold air ran through the room again.

“Khm! Anyway!”

Tang Cheongun summarized the situation:

“It doesn’t seem like he acted without thinking, so we must observe the situation.”

‘How did I get involved so naturally?’

Jangil smiled unconsciously.

It was surprising.

As a human, he had to get involved in Wei Yanho’s matter, but what is this naturalness?

If he had known Tang Cheongun a year ago, Jangil wouldn’t have dared to talk to him. Although their ranks are different, he never thought he could talk to the members of the Righteous Heavenly Alliance.

The Demon Cult was not the only thing that united the martial world.

***

So Ryeo-gun looked at her sister with dazed eyes.

‘Sister.’

She closed and opened her eyes several times, but her sister was still there. Although it had happened before, she always disappeared when she closed and opened her eyes…

So Ryeo-gun reached out and grabbed the collar of her sister’s clothes. It was a careful touch, not daring to touch her body.

Uil turned her head and smiled:

“What’s wrong, Ryeo-gun? Are you hungry?”

She shakes her head.

So Ryeo-gun squeezed the collar of her clothes.

‘It’s not a dream.’

Her sister is in front of her.

Her eyes became moist.

After being taken hostage by the Jegal family, she also received rigorous training to become a spy.

The reason why she was able to endure that training was the hope of reuniting with her sister. And that dream came true.

“Ryeo-gun.”

“Yes, sister.”

“It seems that the lord will wake up soon, why don’t you go get a water jug? We must fill it.”

“Yes.”

So Ryeo-gun nodded and turned around.

She didn’t want to be separated from her sister, but she knew she had to help her. So Ryeo-gun carefully opened the door and quickly entered.

The room was luxurious.

It was a luxurious guest room of the Tang family, so it was natural that it was luxurious. In that luxurious room, there was a large worm on the bed.

‘My savior!’

So Ryeo-gun looked at the worm on the bed and bowed.

She also knew it.

Her sister had saved her, but she was only able to do so thanks to him. If this man had not faced the Jegal family, So Ryeo-gun would never have reunited with her sister.

‘I must thank him.’

She must return the favor. So Ryeo-gun approached the water jug that was in front of the bed.

So Ryeo-gun, who was about to take the water jug, stopped and looked at Wei Yanho on the bed.

He is an amazing person.

He seems to be the same age as her sister, how can he face the terrifying Jegal family alone?

So Ryeo-gun looked at Wei Yanho as if she were looking at a strange creature. But Wei Yanho didn’t seem to feel anything, and didn’t move.

‘The water jug.’

So Ryeo-gun remembered why she had entered and took the water jug. Then, she turned to leave.

At that moment, she heard a sleepy voice behind her:

“E… that… give me water.”

So Ryeo-gun was surprised and turned her head. Wei Yanho, who had woken up, was looking at her and reaching out his hand.
