Chapter 268

‘Oops . ’

Yeowun then became surprised and turned away . He knew that she wouldn’t take off all her clothes with him here, but it still felt embarrassing . As he waited, he felt Mun Ku coming near him .

‘Huh?’

And when Yeowun turned, he froze . Mun Ku was without her skin mask and was standing a foot away from Yeowun . Mun Ku’s beautiful face lit under low candlelight made Yeowun’s heart pound harder than ever .

Mun Ku looked up to Yeowun who was blushing, and her lips were so tempting . Yeowun became embarrassed and stuttered, “W-why did you take off your mask?”

Mun Ku smiled as Yeowun’s embarrassed reaction felt lovely to her . She still had a pure and beautiful smile just like when she showed herself to Yeowun the first time under the moonlight at the academy . She spoke to Yeowun who was watching her with a mesmerized look .

“Do you… like me?” Mun Ku asked with careful, shaking voice . Yeowun felt her nervousness and looked her back into her eyes . Mun Ku then moved her small lips again to ask .

“Or… do you not like me?”

Her eyes showed Yeowun’s reflection . Yeowun became silent for a while at the question, but slowly raised his hand and placed it over her white cheek . Mun Ku shook when she felt his touch .

“Ah…”

Yeowun smiled at Mun Ku, who was shaking like a small bird .

“I like you . ”

“Ah…!”

He had Mun Ku in his mind ever since he saw her back in the academy . But Yeowun had grown without love ever since his mother Lady Hwa passed away, so he wasn’t used to love and affection . Mun Ku smiled at Yeowun who looked embarrassed while he touched Mun Ku’s cheek .

‘Hehe . ’

She then pulled herself up by tiptoe and brought her lips against Yeowun’s lips . Two lips met each other and Yeowun’s eyes grew large . Mun Ku’s soft and sweet scent came into Yeowun’s nose .

‘Ku…’

That’s when Yeowun heard Nano’s voice inside his head .

[User’s heart rate is increasing rapidly . Hormone rate is growing…]

‘Nano, go mute . ’

[Activating silence mode . ]

After a long kiss, Yeowun and Mun Ku let go of each other’s lips . Mun Ku had been holding her breath so she panted .

“Hah…”

Her cheeks were reddened as she stood embarrassed and Yeowun’s heart began to beat harder . Both of them became mesmerized by the sensation of their first kiss . They were never taught how to do so, but they began to kiss again and started touching each other’s cheeks and body . Soon, two of them sat on the bed and began to dive into one another .

About an hour later, Fourth Elder Yang Danwa came out of the dorm room carefully . Hu Bong was inside the room, snoring through his sleep . Yang Danwa held on the fence and looked down . The hall was empty with all of the guests having returned to their rooms . There was only the sound of rainfall outside the building . He had been waiting until all the guests returned to the room .

Yang Danwa quickly jumped off the fence and got down to the first floor . His two feet were so light that they didn’t even make any sound . The skill of superior master level warrior was beyond that of any normal person .

‘Should he be sleeping?’

It was after midnight so it was likely that the old man was asleep . There was no chance that there would be any more guests coming in this late at night with the heavy rain outside . He knew that there was a room for workers to sleep next to the kitchen, so he carefully walked over to it and opened the room door . And…

‘Huh?’

There were two beds, but only one bed had the cooking staff on it . Another bed was empty, with a trace of someone who had gotten up from it recently .

‘Where did he go?’

Yang Danwa used his senses to focus on sensing any human presence nearby . The heavy rainfall was a hindrance, but he felt someone nearby .

‘Barn?’

The person was at the barn . Yang Danwa then quickly moved out of the inn building and went outside . The rain was still heavy with thunder and lightning roaring occasionally . Yang Danwa took steps to avoid getting soaked in rain to run toward the barn . When he got there, he had to hide quickly . He only expected to see the old man, but there was another man there . The old man was talking to a certain man with orange tag in his hand .

‘That is…’

He had heard before coming here that the orange tag was necessary to meet with the Godly Doctor .

‘Is that it?’

The tag looked similar to the one that the special expedition team had taken with them . Yang Danwa decided to he should wait a bit as there was a guest that had come first .

‘Huh?’

Something unexpected happened . The old man used his finger like a sword and quickly penetrated the man’s forehead . The man also hadn’t expected the attack and got killed with his two eyes wide open .

‘How can that be…?’

He thought the man was a normal man, but it seemed like the old man was actually a powerful warrior . And as he was shocked, the old man mumbled something . His lips read this:

“There’s a rat hiding here . ”
