「𝙃𝙪𝙝.」
I knew it, but it was ridiculous when I actually saw it.
Someone so strong that the current me would be slaughtered with a single swing of their hand.
In fact, it would be right to say that Cheong So-ha now holds my life in her hands.
Clang.
Cheong So-ha was leaning against a tree, holding the Blue-White Sword, a Cheong family heirloom, in one hand with the scabbard still on.
“Every time you lie from now on, you will lose a limb.”
” . . . . . .”
“Do you know about the Ancestor?”
“Yes.”
The man Cheong So-ha is desperately looking for.
I called her here by using the name of 「𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘼𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧」.
As I calmly answered, Cheong So-ha stared at me with her eyes glowing purple. She was using the trait 「𝙀𝙮𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙏𝙧𝙪𝙩𝙝」 to discern truth from falsehood.
” . . . It’s the truth.”
The murderous intent Cheong So-ha had, as if she would cut off my limbs right away, subsided a little.
She seemed to have calmed down to some extent since she had a chance to obtain information about the Ancestor she had longed for.
“Then do you know his whereabouts?”
“I do.”
“Tell me right now.”
“I can’t tell you.”
“Huh?”
Clang.
At my negative answer, Cheong So-ha moved the scabbard slightly.
Swish!
Creak!
Despite that small movement, the two trees behind me were completely cut in half. It was a truly terrifying power.
I quickly added, feeling a sense of urgency.
“He doesn’t want it to be known.”
Of course, he wouldn’t want his whereabouts to be known. If I deceived Cheong So-ha and planted a suggestion deep in her mind like 「𝙃𝙚」 did when she was young.
” . . . . . .Is that the truth?”
Cheong So-ha seemed to have calmed down a lot after confirming that my words were not a lie.
“Then you must have been sent as a proxy.”
“Yes.”
” . . . He must have something in mind. So, what does he want from me?”
This was the important part.
I had to cleverly twist the focus of the conversation so that I wouldn’t get caught by the Eye of Truth trait.
“Do you know Cheong Juhwa, the daughter of Cheong Sa-woon?”
“Cheong Juhwa. . . . . . . I’ve heard of her, the one who caused a commotion before.”
“He’s concerned about that child.”
In fact, it was also true that he was concerned about her.
He tried to plant a suggestion in Cheong Juhwa when she was young, but it backfired and he is now unable to reveal himself because of it.
“Is that so? What is her current situation?”
“She is a student at Cheonghwa Academy. Her position is not good due to the influence of Cheong Haram, who is a year her senior.”
“Ha, that good-for-nothing kid from Cheong Do-yool’s faction.”
Cheong So-ha scoffed and then sighed and said.
“Alright. I’ll take care of that right away. Anything else?”
Yes!
I managed to deceive her somehow.
“No, that’s all.”
“Is that all. . . . . . .”
Cheong So-ha seemed disappointed, but she didn’t seem to be particularly suspicious.
「𝙄𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣 𝙄 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩.」
Normally, this would have been impossible for Cheong So-ha, but when it comes to matters related to 「𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘼𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧」, Cheong So-ha’s rationality and judgment are compromised.
This was because she had been deeply influenced by a suggestion since she was a child.
“I’ll ask you just in case, but why does he want that child to grow?”
Cheong So-ha asked while lost in thought. Of course, the answer I gave was simple.
“I don’t know.”
「𝙃𝙚」 wants Cheong Juhwa to grow?
The question itself was wrong in the first place. 「𝙃𝙚」 doesn’t want Cheong Juhwa to grow. Rather, he must be thinking about how to get rid of the unexpected obstacle that has gotten in the way of his plans.
” . . . . . .”
