Chapter 31
Eumhu, who had dumped Yang-hwi and Jegal Seol-ha at the entrance of the Five Trials of True Sound located beneath the cliff, returned to the Hugok Inn.
The total time that had elapsed was merely a quarter of a quarter of a period.
Considering that the distance between the two points was a half-day journey for an ordinary person, it was truly an astonishing Lightness Technique.
“Eumhu, what of Yang-hwi and Seol-ha…?”
When Jegal Seon, who was still standing there awkwardly, asked, Eumhu replied nonchalantly.
“They have entered the Five Trials of True Sound. Assuming they emerge safely, it will take at least a month, so you should return to your quarters.”
“I cannot do that. I will remain here at the Hugok Inn until the children come out. But…”
Jegal Seon, who had been shaking his head with a stiff expression, let his words trail off.
“You said ‘assuming they emerge safely,’ does that mean it is very dangerous?”
After hearing that their lives could be at risk due to inadequate safety measures, he could not help but worry as a father.
“Hm. The probability of dying without passing the first trial is about half. It is the trial that requires the most precautions, yet it is in a state where no measures have been taken at all.”
Jegal Seon turned pale. No, it went beyond that; rage began to fill his face.
Jegal Seon had words rising to his throat to demand why she had dumped Seol-ha in such a place, but he could not bring himself to utter them.
