Chapter 182: To Hanjung
A few days later.
I came to the Seongju Hall to go through the formalities.
”…Therefore, I entrust the defense of Hanjung to the Jeonwang Gate.”
Clap clap clap clap.
As I accepted the golden token—a sort of certificate—the clan heads seated with me applauded.
‘Why is that guy acting like that?’
The Red Dragon Clan Head even had tears welling up.
For someone known as the Crimson Blood Reaper, regarded as the incarnation of terror, to be like that… it just didn’t fit his image.
Probably, his age is causing female hormones to be secreted.
Zing.
Meanwhile, the expressions of the White Dragon Sect Leader and the Silver Dragon Sect Leader were utterly cold.
The relationship with the Silver Dragon Sect hadn’t been bad, but it seemed this competition had completely soured it.
‘That Silver Dragon Spear fellow was actually quite decent…’
After living in the martial world for over twenty years, I’ve come to realize one thing.
You can’t have everything.
I had to think of it as gaining Han Jung at the cost of losing my relationship with the Silver Dragon Sect.
As for the White Dragon Sect… well, they were bastards from the start, so there was nothing to be done.
Anyway, that’s not what’s important right now.
“Congratulations.”
“Thank you.”
“I’d like to talk after this is over… Would you have time?”
“Any time is fine.”
There were still final practical matters to discuss, after all.
A short while later.
After the event, I followed Mun Sang to his office.
