Chapter 155
The Martial King, a truly ignorant fool
“May I enter?”
“Yeah.”
Baekyak entered Danwooseong’s room. Having returned to the Galaxy Alliance, Danwooseong had sent Samaa Gyeok and Ju Jaryang back home and ensured Lee Ja-eon’s safe return before lying down on his bed. He had stayed awake for two full days. If it had been just running, he might have endured it, but the fierce battle with Geumgeom Il-ya in between had left him thoroughly exhausted.
Baekyak approached Dan Wooseong, who lay like a patient, and touched his forehead with her hand.
“Why are you running such a high fever?”
“It rained a lot.”
“You could have avoided it.”
“The Grand Master of the Ten Thousand Horses Palace wouldn’t let us avoid it. We got drenched together for quite a while.”
Baekyak chilled her own hand before pressing it against Danwooseong’s forehead and asked.
“Did you kill him?”
“Yeah.”
Suddenly feeling a cool sensation on his head, Dan Wooseong opened his eyes wide and replied.
“Ah, it feels nice and cool, but kinda scary.”
Baekyak smiled and said.
“Bear with it. Until the fever breaks. Oh, while you were away, I met Princess Manma on my dawn walk.”
“Did you kill her?”
“No. She escaped well. Judging by her instant speed, she seemed faster than me or my brother. Of course, the difference probably isn’t that great.”
“What did she say?”
“Other masters were reporting that they were interested in the ice palace. The moment he saw me, he declared he would make me his primary wife. He didn’t seem like an ordinary madman.”
