Chapter 129: Oedangrim
Dang Yeo-eun instinctively forced herself to hold back the urge to draw her sword and quietly observed him.
The man before her had a peculiar appearance.
He clearly looked like an old man, yet his taut, crimson skin, small stature, and mischievous smile gave him the air of a child.
Dang Yeo-eun bowed respectfully once more and asked him.
“Please forgive this young girl for her lack of knowledge and not knowing your honorable name. If it’s not too much trouble, might I ask your name, Senior?”
The childlike old man with the red face replied with a playful smile.
“What do you mean, honorifics?! Just call me ‘Older Brother’!”
“…Huh?!”
When Dang Yeo-eun looked at him in confusion at his demand, the old man spoke again.
“I said call me ‘brother’! Now, I’ll take you to Brother Yang!”
Dang Yeo-eun was instantly thrown into confusion, unsure how to respond.
She couldn’t tell if he was serious or joking.
No, even if he was serious, how could she possibly call such an old man “brother”?
It was something she simply couldn’t bring herself to do.
Dang Yeo-eun ultimately couldn’t comply with her demand and clasped her hands again, saying,
“How could a young and inadequate junior like me dare to speak so rudely to a senior like you? Please take back those words.”
The old man’s playful expression vanished.
Then, with a look of genuine annoyance, she began to threaten Dang Yeo-eun.
