CH 9 attacked

As he hurried his horse to move forward, his spine suddenly became cold. The shame he had to bear was not over yet.

'Damn it… .'

The ridicules of kings and nobles was not the problem. Jangan was crowded with people who had come to watch the wedding procession to see like it was some kind of tragedy .

Do he have to go through them? Just imagining it, the hairs all over his body stood up. Probably they are looking very pityingly that the hero Ja-hyeon is getting married to the ghost princess, unfortunately.

Does he really has to endure that humiliation? Ja-hyeon squinted hid eyes in confusion.

Even though he was in a situation where he was ignored and looked down on by the elites, he was still a nobleman. From birth as his grandfather, the Jaho clan was the country's number one armed clan. His father died very young, and his family power was declining , but this family is a strong family. He is the eldest in this family. He wad proud of himself. He grew up listening their glory until hid ears were worn out. Those words were engraved into the heart of his.

Even among those who said he was arrogant, he never bowed his pride. But now he is forced to receive sympathy from thousands of people... He'd prefer to rather die.

He gripped the reins vigorously.

As the time went he didn't start, he just stands there, and the people standing on the left and right look bewildered.

Either way, he made up his mind. He has been patient enough. He had no intention of putting up with such a shame because of this unwanted wedding.

Ja-hyeon jumped off the horse without hesitation. Then he turned around, leaving them alone in embarrassment.

Likewise, it doesn't matter what the king says or what the people around him are fussing about. He is going to go back his way, but suddenly a sharp scream resounds behind his back.

Surprised, he turned around to see someone drew a sword from the crowd like a swarm of bees and swung it wildly. It wasn't just that. As if they had received an order, men in black sprinted towards the gate, wielding their swords at random direction.

The soldiers saw it and tried to close the gate in a hurry, but they were helpless as the intruder rushed in like a flock of dogs.

A huge crowd rushed into the palace like a flood. In an instant, the palace became an abyss.

“Hey, get rid of the rebels !”

The eunuchs shouted in confusion. The palanquin on which the bride was carried fell over, and the female servants shrieked and scattered all over the place.

Ja-hyeon ran past them and picked up the sword he had been eyeing at once. And without hesitation, he swung it towards the rogues who rushed at him. A man's body is cleanly cut in two piece . Those who saw his terrifying strength retreated from him in astonishment.

“For what purpose did you invade?”

“… ….”

“You're not going to answer this?”

Ja-hyeon narrowed his eyes and looked at them. Ugly Masks, Patchy attire, Only the two eyes protruding from the masked face are strangely shaped. Is it a group of bandits ?

No. What kind of stupid group of bandits has the audacity to invade the palace without fear?

Did someone want to create a havoc ? Who the hell was conspiring? Who was against the king besides himself? He did not know.

There is no way to know how the situation is going because it has nothing to do with politics.

Ja-hyeon, who had been shaking his head here and there, soon stopped thinking.

He rushed towards the bandits and swung his sword relentlessly. Three cuts in one sword strike.

The soldiers also turned green with his terrifying power. Ja-hyeon swung in all directions with a sword soaked in blood.

“Hahh, what are you doing? Draw your swords!! "

"You rouges get down on your knees! Otherwise I'm going to cut you all, so you will lie flat on the floor. Dont even try to run away!"

He talked so ignorantly, but who will listen? those who are afraid to run away?

All down, everyone bows flat, thinking that it is not really a differentiating weapon.

“What are the soldiers doing? Come on, Don't let a single one to escape."

” Now I Don't want to know your purpose ? It doesn’t concern me. I've found a way to get rid of my anger, so let's get it right. "

Ja-hyeon swung his sword wildly with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, the people who rushed out was disgusted. That heinous habit of slicing people and murderous laughing is here again. Is the image of National hero ending today?

“… Instead, I will be called the human butcher Ja-hyeon .”

“ Bir-yeong what are you doing blankly! Come on help here! ”

Ja-hyeon, who saw him, shouted fiercely. Without any hesitation , Bir-yeong muttered "yeah, yeah", and drew out his sword.

The soldiers who were horribly panicked started attacking the invaders following him.

Not long after, the situation turned around.

As Ja-hyeon was running and killing wildly, the momentum of the invading men was broken, and the soldiers were exalted.

The rebels also notice that the situation is going unfavorably, so they starts climb up the wall to escape.

Then the soldiers fired arrows towards the intruders . Some were hit and fell, and some climbed to the end and jumped out of the castle.

One of them flipped over the fire beacon just before he ran to the other side. The embers poured out from there spewed out in all directions, and the palace was engulfed in flames in an instant. The fire quickly spread everywhere.

“What are you doing! Come on, don’t run, put out the fire!”

Seeing the slaves roaming around, the vigil shouted. The slaves hurriedly broke the water bottle and poured water over the fire. The soldiers also hurriedly scooped up the pond water and carried it.

the rebels, who did not miss the gap and could not escape, open the gates and run away. Ja-hyeon hurriedly followed after him. But they are already scattered. To makeup matters worse, fires were also rising on the road and in the marketplace. They ran away and set fires everywhere.

'… It Isn't time to chase! '

First of all, you have to evolve. He put down his sword and spoke to the people who were in turmoil.

“What are you doing without put out the fire! Scoop water from the well and carry it!”

Hearing that tiger-like voice, the people who were wandering around come to their senses.

He ordered the soldiers who followed him to put out the fire, then drew water from a nearby well and sprinkled it all over his body. Then he broke through the thick smoke and took the initiative to put out the fire. People gathered in the field immediately followed him and scooped up water wherever the found.

There was a fire everywhere . Among the people there were shamans who used water and wind to help evolve.

A while ago, it was reported that a group of Southern exorcist came into Hui-ran-yeon, and it seems that there were few casualties thanks to them.

' If it's luck, it's bad luck.'

'It must be bad luck for this to happen... The damage won't be too great, I must have done a lot of good work, if that's all I'm going to be lucky.'

After a secret laugh, Ja-hyeon ordered the soldiers not to leave a single ember to prevent the fire from spreading.

Thanks to the help of the exorcist , it did not take long to suppress all the fire sources. He missed out on the traitors, but it doesn't matter to him whether the palace becomes a wasteland in the first place.

After checking that the situation was roughly settled, he went to the well to wash his soot-stained face. He pours water on his head and shake off his dripping hair, but a busy soldier approached him and asks carefully.

" General…"

" Now what we should do?”

He is not even a military commander, so why are they asking him? He narrowed his eyes in irritation, but remembered that he had been giving orders to this and that in the first place, so he shut his mouth.

" General?"

“… Anyway, burn the corpses and imprison anyone who is still alive.”

"all right!"

The soldiers take his words as if he was a commander and went to the other soldiers. The self-esteem that had been tattered by that sullen attitude was restored a little.

'Okay. I am never the object of sympathy. An object of awe.'

As he turned around with a triumphant smile on his face, Bir-yeong came and patted him on the shoulder saying that he had worked hard.

“By the way, what the hell is this all of a sudden… .”

“Anyway, how are you? I was about to run out of patience... I was lucky."

“It’s really my… What kind of luck is this. Why is this on the day of marriage ? It’s not a stupid thing to say.”

"Huh. It’s better this way than wearing sloppy clothes.”

Bir-yeong smiled, saying, "I think that side suits you better."

Despite the sarcastic remarks, Ja-hyeon didn't even open an eye.

“Even though it evolved quickly… It will take quite some time to repair the damage.”

“The outside is rather nice. The palace banquet hall has become a pile of charcoal. You should have seen King Ga-ryun become very contemplative....”

Suddenly, Bir-yeong stopped talking and pointed to the crowd.

“Hey, isn’t that your bride?”
