Chapter 61
“……Kill your breath and stick to the wall.”
Kang-seok briefly marveled at the uncanny abilities displayed by the man known as Black Ho. He’d whisper that someone was approaching, and then dissolve into a cold chill, stunning the nations without even realizing it.
“I’ve only stunned them for a moment, let’s pick up the pace again.”
“……Yes, my lord.”
To Zhong Wenyin, who was displaying his extraordinary abilities, the word “lord” that was only reserved for the narrators came out naturally.
“You two, please concentrate. We don’t have much time.”
Black Ho was right, and Chun Shik and Kang Seok needed to ratchet up the tension. They had come all this way to represent the village.
“Yes! Don’t worry, my lord. Chun Shik, are you sure this is the right place?”
“……Father, isn’t my memory remarkable? I saw a large group of nations traveling to the ice cave when I was here the other day.”
He was one of the men who ran the most errands for the Nara. A renowned hunter in the North Sea, Kang Seok and his son Chun Shik were renowned for the tributes they brought with them based on the quality of their game, which allowed them to travel in and out of the citadel of the Ice Palace more often than others.
He had brought them with him because he thought they would be able to figure it out in less time, eliminating unnecessary places and spaces. As they started walking once more, Kang-seok spoke softly.
“……Who is that young man, or rather, who is he, by the way?”
