chapter 2

Min-soo shared his story, and Jin-ha listened intently, his eyes filled with compassion and understanding. As they spoke, Min-soo felt a sense of comfort and trust wash over him, and he began to open up to Jin-ha.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, Jin-ha raised his hand, and tiny fireflies danced around him, illuminating the path ahead. Min-soo's eyes widened in wonder, and he reached out a hand, mesmerized by the sparkling lights.

Jin-ha smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "These fireflies will light our way to your village."

As they walked, Min-soo couldn't help but steal glances at Jin-ha, who seemed to glow with an otherworldly aura. Their eyes met, and Min-soo felt a flutter in his chest. He quickly looked away, his cheeks warming with a blush.

Jin-ha's gaze lingered on Min-soo's face, his eyes filled with admiration and a hint of something more. He seemed to enjoy Min-soo's company, and the young man's innocence was endearing.

The fireflies continued to dance around them, casting a magical glow over the landscape. Min-soo felt as though he was walking in a dream, with Jin-ha by his side.

As they approached the village, Min-soo's thoughts turned to the cruel minister and the plan to get rid of him. Jin-ha's presence seemed to give him courage, and he felt a sense of hope he hadn't felt in a long time.

Min-soo's eyes widened in shock as the soldiers fell to the ground, unconscious. He stumbled backward, his mind racing with questions. "What...what happened?" he stuttered, his voice shaking.

Jin-ha's calm voice reassured him. "Don't worry, young one. They're just unconscious. My presence can be...overwhelming to mortals."

Min-soo's gaze darted between Jin-ha and the fallen soldiers, his face pale. "But...but how will we get past them?" he asked, still trying to process what had just happened.

Jin-ha smiled and stepped forward, his eyes gleaming with a hint of mischief. "Leave that to me."

With a wave of his hand, the gates creaked open, and the unconscious soldiers were lifted off the ground, gently placed to the side. Min-soo's eyes followed the scene, amazed by Jin-ha's powers.

As they entered the village, Min-soo felt a sense of trepidation. What would they find inside? Would they be able to confront the cruel minister?

Jin-ha's presence seemed to fill the air with an aura of power and confidence. Min-soo felt a sense of reassurance, knowing that he wasn't alone in this quest.

As I lead Jin-ha towards the cruel minister's mansion, the night seems to grow darker, the village streets emptier. I can feel Jin-ha's presence beside me, a reassuring calm amidst the tension. When we reach the mansion, the soldiers in the watchtowers alert the ones below, and they approach us with caution.

But before they can even ask us any questions, they fall to their knees, bowing in front of Jin-ha. I watch in amazement as the tower guards shoot arrows towards us, only to have them turn to ashes before they can reach us. The guards on the towers fall unconscious, and I feel a mix of awe and fear.
