Reaper of the Drifting Moon

Episode 543

The aftermath of the massacre of Unma Dogangseon was great.

It was to the point where the Geumcheonhoe and Eunryeonhoe declared that they would stop fighting for a while and investigate the truth.

Thanks to that, peace came to Poyang Lake, albeit temporarily. However, public sentiment, which had fallen into abyss, was still vicious.

People treated unmanned people as non-existent people, and some inns did not accept unmanned people at all. To that extent, hatred for the unmanned was rampant in the streets.

Of course, he did not openly oppose the unmanned people, but he showed his hostility towards the unmanned people through small rebellion.

The guest cup where Pyowol stayed was the same.

The owner of the inn made the excuse that the room was full and did not accept any more attendants.

As the owner of the inn, he had to take a pretty big loss, but he didn’t seem to have any regrets about his decision.

Fortunately, the owner of the inn did not show hostility to Pyo-wol.

It was because Haomen’s Hong Yuxin guaranteed it.

Gaekjan was one of the places connected to Haomen.

Because he had a long-standing relationship with Hao-wen, he could not refuse Hong Yu-shin’s request.

Thanks to this, Pyo-wol was able to stay comfortably in the inn.

Since the number of guests in the guesthouse has decreased, a lot has been solved in terms of noise.

Pyo-wol sat in a window seat and looked at Poyang Lake.

After the massacre of the Unma Dogangseon, the number of boats on Lake Poyang has definitely decreased.

It was almost invisible except for the fishing boats that had no choice but to come out for fishing.

“Huruk!”

Pyowol brought the teacup to his mouth and drank little by little.

After eating, my mouth felt refreshed.

It was then.

Squeak!

The door to the inn opened and someone came in.

He was a handsome man with his hair tied tightly.

In the hand of a man in his late twenties with a lively expression and a fresh smile, he held a sword that bent in a gentle curve.

The owner of the inn stopped the man in front of him and said.

“Unmanned people are not allowed in our inn. I’m sorry, but please go to another inn.”

“I didn’t come here to stay in an inn. I’ll just talk for a while.”

“But…”

“It will take a while. Nothing to worry about will happen.”

The man calmed the innkeeper and came inside.

The owner of the inn looked at the man’s back, not thinking about what to do.

After looking around the inside of the inn for a while, the man walked straight to Pyowol’s seat.

widely!

He sat across from him without permission from the moon.

“Long time no see.”

Hearing the man’s voice, Pyowol turned and looked at him.

“Lee Geomhan?”

“Nice to meet you!”

The man looking at Pyowol with a fresh smile was Gwangmumun’s Somunju and Jang Moo-geuk’s lifelong adversary Lee Geom-han.

At his appearance, Pyo-wol made an expression of surprise.

As such, the appearance of Lee Geom-han was unexpected.

“Didn’t you leave Poyang Lake?”

“I was going to, but I changed my mind.”

Squeeze!

Lee Geom-han naturally picked up the teapot placed in front of Pyowol and poured it into an empty cup.

Pyo-wol looked at Lee Geom-han without a word.

Lee Geom-han grinned and lifted the teacup.

“Sorry! It’s because I’m thirsty.”

Even though Pyo-wol was staring at him, Lee Geom-han casually drank the tea.

It was as if he had known Pyowol for a long time.

widely!

Finally, after drinking all the tea, Lee Geom-han put the cup down on the table. And he opened his mouth.

“I just want to say I’m sorry.”

“What are you sorry about?”

“The way Searle and her followers attacked your people at will. Their behavior was very rude. She may have done it for me, but I never wanted that.”

“Why are you apologizing for that?”

“Since it was my woman’s fault, I thought it was right for me to apologize. I hope you will accept my apology.”

Lee Geom-han’s attitude was very polite. It was bold nonetheless.

Pyo-wol thought that such an appearance suited the person named Lee Geom-han very well.

“I accept it. But you don’t seem to have come here simply to apologize?”

“You’re also quick-witted.”

Lee Geomhan nodded as if he knew that.

“what’s the matter?”

“I have come to inform you.”

“Notice?”

“From now on, I’m going to take over the federation.”

“Why are you notifying me of that?”

“Because there are many acquaintances of you in the union association.”

“So you’re trying to prevent me from intervening by giving you advance notice.”

“Exactly. As expected, it’s good that you don’t have to explain every word because you’re smart.”

“Why are you trying to get your hands on the federation now? I’ve been watching you all this time.”

“I’m saying this because I’ve watched it enough.”

Squeeze!

Lee Geom-han, perhaps thirsty, poured tea into the cup again.

Pyowol watched his actions without saying a word.

Lee Geom-han, who moistened his mouth with tea, spoke again.

“Answer me honestly. Do you think you can beat the Golden Reunion with all your strength?”

“…”

“Can’t you answer? I tried not to intervene if I could, but I will never be able to defeat Geumcheonhoe in the same way as now. More than anything else, Hoeju’s ability is too much.”

“You mean Dragon?”

The current owner of Eunryeonhoe was Sopaeryong Yonghasang, the owner of small grains in Yongcheongok.

Yong Ha-sang had a very warlike disposition.

Rather than making a plan and proceeding step by step, he had more improvised troops moving according to the situation at the time.

Because of that, the damage to the Union Association was growing exponentially.

Namgungwol and Juseolpung stepped forward to put the brakes on Yong Ha-sang’s arbitrariness, but it was not enough.

“If we leave him alone, the union association will collapse sooner or later.”

“Do you think it will be different if you become a Hoeju?”

“It will be different.”

“how?”

“You’ll know when you see it.”

Lee Geom-han answered with a confident expression.

“hmm!”

“Does it look terrifying?”

“It’s the word I hate the most. You will find out if you wait.”

“is it? Still, I can’t help it. Because I haven’t shown you anything yet.”

“I wish you good luck.”

“I’ll take that as a sign of not interfering.”

“Think whatever you want.”

“I know you’ll say no, but I want to ask you one last question.”

“I refuse in advance.”

“You know what I’m going to say?”

“It’s obvious. You’re probably asking me to be with you or help you.”

“As expected…”

Lee Geom-han couldn’t hide his admiration at Pyo-wol’s nonchalant reply.

It seemed like he was just spitting it out casually, but there was a bone hidden in Pyowol’s words. He also knew exactly who he was.

There weren’t that many in Gangho who had such good eyesight and quick brain rotation. So I felt more regretful.

It was because it wouldn’t be that difficult to get through the troubled times if only Pyo-wol was with him.

However, Lee Geom-han completely discarded the lingering feelings.

In the first place, Pyo-wol was not a person who matched himself. And he wasn’t the one to be under others.

It was clear that even if I had him under my command, I would not be able to use it properly.

Above all, they already had experience in clashes.

Back then, he thought he had the advantage, but now he didn’t know what would happen if they clashed.

I still haven’t turned Pyowol into an enemy. So he came directly.

To hear a word from Pyowol that he would not intervene.

Lee Geom-han threw away his last lingering feelings and stood up.

“I’ll just go and see. See you later.”

Lee Geom-han took a fist and walked out of the inn.

He felt Pyowol’s cold gaze on the back of his head, but Lee Geomhan did not look back.

When I came out, I saw Namgung Seol and Seolhwa Swordsman soldiers waiting.

The Seolhwa Swordsman was ready to jump into the inn at any moment.

Lee Geom-han looked at Seolhwa Swordsman with cold eyes.

He was well aware of the fact that they followed his lover, Namgungseol, but he only looked pitiful in his eyes.

Lee Geom-han’s gaze turned to Namgung Seol. Then, Namgungseol spoke in a low voice.

“Did you meet him?”

“hmm!”

“What about the story?”

“Good.”

“Is he still inside?”

“What are you thinking?”

“He is too dangerous.”

“so?”

“We have to get rid of it right now.”

In Namgungseol’s eyes, there was a deep life.

Lee Geomhan sighed.

“phew! We barely negotiated, so now we can attack?”

“He was all over the place.”

“so?”

“Are you asking because you don’t know? All of Salmun’s assassins obey his orders. Have you thought about how big of a threat that could be?”

“I know.”

“Black man!”

Namgungseol raised his voice. However, there was no change in Lee Geum-han’s expression.

he said calmly.

“You have already failed once.”

“It was different then and now. He’s alone now. There are enough possibilities. If you don’t want to help, back off. I won’t put any pressure on your prestige.”

“It’s not like that.”

“sure?”

“It means it will fail again.”

“Because it’s different from back then.”

“Nothing different. If you go inside now, you will all die.”

“Black man!”

“He is not the man he used to be. Now I can’t be sure I’ll be able to subdue him. So I negotiated with him. I don’t know?”

“You mean… that much?”

Namgungseol looked at Lee Geomhan with an expression of disbelief.

Lee Geomhan nodded with a firm expression.

“I saw it with my own eyes.”

“How could that be…”

“Three days of bereavement are remarkable. Pyowol is such an existence. Don’t bring your anger on yourself by hastily touching it.”

“Mmm!”

Namgungseol unknowingly let out a quiet voice. It was such a big shock.

She had never seen Lee Geom-han so highly regard his opponent. Even Zhang Wu-geuk, who everyone said was his opponent of a lifetime, was not given such a generous evaluation.

“So you’re going to leave him alone? You’ll definitely come back someday, right?”

“That’s something to think about when you go there. What we need to worry about now is taking over the union association.”

“Are you determined?”

Suddenly, Namgungseol’s eyes sparkled.

I had told Geomhan Lee countless times that I had to obtain the Unryeonhoe. But each time, Lee Geom-han replied that it was not the time yet. For the first time, he agreed with her opinion.

“Now we must begin.”

“What are you going to do? How about I go ahead and lay the plate?”

“no! You don’t have to.”

“But…”

“It’s only going to backfire if you overdo it with this kind of thing. Better to break through head-on.”

“Breaking through the front? Are you serious?”

“When did you see me lie? I’m serious.”

“Mmm!”

“Do you trust me?”

“sure.”

“Then trust me and follow me until the end. I’ll show you. my real strength.”

“all right.”

Namgungseol nodded.

The man who does not move easily, but once he does, causes storms and thunderbolts.

Falling in love with him, she became his woman and decided to live for him.

There was only one thing she could do at this moment when the storm named Lee Geom-han was about to start moving again.

just quietly follow him.

The rest will be taken care of by Lee Geum-han.
