Cheonma Wants to Live Quietly

chapter 34



Perhaps because they knew something was going to happen today, they started to notice things they normally would have missed.

Of course, that applied to everyone except Taesan.

Taesan was his usual self.

As he had already known that the white flower brothel was not an ordinary brothel since his first visit.

Familiar things were caught on Taesan’s radars.

‘So that’s where it was.’

The white flower brothel consisted of three pavilions.

In one of those pavilions, he sensed bad energy that he had several encounters with before.

Taesan was not good at memorizing people’s faces. As he wasn’t interested. But he was sharp at remembering any unique sources or flow of energy.

And he distinctively remembered the common flows found in the Jong Clan warriors.

That energy was gathered in one of the rooms in the pavilion.

“I will escort you to your usual room.”

The room that the prostitute escorted him to was opposite the room where the Jong clan warriors were gathered.

He was able to sense a few strong energies.

To make the fight between them look authentic they would need strong professionals amongst them. It seemed that they had done their homework and sourced the right ones.

They were more skilled than the ones usually stationed here.

And there were more professionals than usual.

“Not bad?”

The prostitute’s eyes widened as she turned around to look at Taesan.

Her face was flushed.

“Are..are you choosing me for today?”

It was a misunderstanding but he couldn’t be bothered to explain so he nodded.

“Sure why not.”

There was a mixed look of happiness and sadness shown on her face.

Even if she were selected today they would not be able to spend the night together. So she was sad and disappointed.

All the other prostitutes who had spent the night with Taesan said that their hearts still leaped whenever Taesan came to visit.

And they all held strong urges to spend another night with him.

They were all disappointed that they couldn’t remember anything from that night besides the feeling that it was good.

That’s why the prostitute that had escorted him had dreamed of spending a night with Taesan.

But what a wasted opportunity it was.

She too wanted to be happy as the others who had been chosen by Taesan before.

Her opportunity had arrived, but why was it today of all days.

“Then…then I’ll call another as well.”

“No need.”

“Oh? Will you be satisfied with just me alone tonight?”

“Yes. So now come and sit down.”

The prostitute happily entered the room and sat gently next to Taesan.

Then Gyeongwan who was standing outside shut the door.

Taesan looked at the girl sitting next to him. The prostitute averted his gaze and turned her face to show him her side profile.

Now that he thought about it there was some time left until the start of their plan. So wouldn’t he be able to squeeze in something before then?

The prostitute held onto such wishful thoughts and looked at Taesan.

“Don’t you think today’s environment is rather noisy?”

“Oh? Well. I’m not too…sure….”

“Listen carefully. Don’t you think there’s a fight going on?”

The prostitute paused and listened to the sounds of her surroundings. Then she faintly heard the sound of a fight.

“Oh? I think you’re right?”

She knew what that sound was. It was the backdrop in the process to make today’s plan a success.

The prostitute sighed. It seemed she wouldn’t be able to achieve her dream after all.

She looked at Taesan with a calm and collected look in her eyes.

This naive and innocent prince was going to be in trouble today.

Taesant smirked at the prostitute who was looking at her.

“Do you want me to pick out your eyes?”

“Sorry?”

The girl thought she had heard him wrongly. Did he really just say that?

“Don’t look at me like that.”

“How..how did I look at you…”

“Do I look like a prey about to be eaten?”

The prostitute closed her mouth. She was confused. This was not the usual Taesan she had heard of.

She quickly tried to grasp the situation and opened her mouth to speak.

“My…my prince what do you mean. I don’t quite understand.”

“I think I have become rather benevolent lately? And I would have just let things go if you looked at me with sympathy but you dare to look down at me?”

The prostitute kneeled and bowed with her head to the floor.

“I swear I never looked at you that way. I swear.”

“Do you swear it on your soul?

“Sorry?”

The prostitute stared blankly for a minute at Taesan.

She had heard the phrase swear it on your life but had never heard someone say swear it on your soul before.

But that was scarier than the former phrase.

Somehow she knew instinctively that it would be dangerous to swear it on her soul.

“Just start what you were planning to do.”

“Sorry.”

Taesan laughed wildly.

“Do you think I came here without a clue of what’s going on?”

The prostitutes’ face turned pale.

***

Gyeongwan stood blocking the door and looked around at his surroundings.

Yoo was standing next to Gyeongwan.

And the doctor was seated a distance away from them.

This was different than the normal situation.

Normally once Taesan entered the room the doctor would disappear only to return near the end.

Gyeongwan didn’t place much thought on the difference today. After all, today was a special day.

Gyeongwan who had been inspecting his surroundings tensely suddenly noticed Yoo.

She was no different from her usual self. But today she felt a little special to him today.

‘Huh! What was I thinking!’

Gyeongwan turned away as his face started to flush.

He had been staring at Yoo when he had intended to inspect the surroundings.

He was nearly caught by Yoo.

But the problem was what came next.

Suddenly he felt lustful. Normally he never dared to even dream about doing something to Yoo, but today he suddenly recalled Mdm Rogue’s suggestion to prepare a separate room for them.

Gyeongwan cautiously turned his gaze to Yoo. Coincidentally Yoo was looking his way and their eyes met.

He was surprised and quickly turned away.

Just because his eyes had met Yoo he felt more lustful than before.

That was when Gyeonwasn realized he felt different than his usual self.

He then hurriedly looked to the doctor.

The doctor had a meaningful smile on his face.

This must be the side effect that he had mentioned earlier.

‘How is this a small side effect!’

Gyoeongwan shouted inside his head.

Gyeongwasn who was struggling between his lust and consciousness noticed the sudden change in atmosphere and gained his senses.

His overpowering lust disappeared immediately. In its place, he was filled with adrenaline to fight.

This too was an unfamiliar feeling.

At that moment, he saw a bunch of people walking up the stairs at the end of the corridor.

They then started to walk towards Yoo and himself.

There were a total of 20 people, and their eyes glanced Yoo up and down as they passed by.

Gyeongwan was covered in cold sweat as he fought the rush of adrenaline that provoked his urge to fight and kill.

The group of people opened the door where the Jong clan were gathered.

“Here you are.”

What came next was a typical scenario.

A fight over the scenario where one of them had picked the girl the other wanted when they had chosen her first.

And after a series of ego stabbing comments, a physical fight broke loose.

Crash!

With a loud explosive sound, the furniture and decorations started to break around them.

The broken pieces reached as far as where Gyoengwan and Yoo were standing, while the two of them watched on calmly.

Those from the surrounding rooms peeped out curiously.

The people who had started fighting inside the room were soon out on the corridor and the fight started to build up.

Naturally, the Jong warriors and the white flower brothel warriors tried to come closer to Gyeongwan and Yoo.

And naturally started to attack Gyeongwan and Yoo.

Had the two not been aware of today’s plan they would have been taken by surprise.

But the two were ready and in position.

Clang clangggg!

The two yielded their swords and defended all attacks.

Everyone seemed surprised.

They were much more skilled than they had anticipated.

They had expected it to be an easy fight.

They thought they could easily surpass Gyeongwan and Yoo and break into the room they were guarding and beat Taesan.

But their first move had already gone wrong.

The two were too strong to use their planned coincidence as an excuse to take them out.

Suddenly the Jong warriors and the white flower brothel warriors had a 180-degree change of behavior.

They started to attack Gyoengwan and Yoo together as though they were on the same side.

Their synergy was off, but they were highly skilled so didn’t interfere with one another’s attacks.

Gyeongwan and Yoo’s eyes were full of determination as they fought back their attacks.

The Jong warriors were definitely more skilled than the white flower brothel warriors. But it was easier to fight the Jong clans for them.

As the two grew in strength, their ability to attack their weakness had grown as well.

At this point, the attackers were taken aback.

But nobody expected today to be a failure.

As there were still those remaining that had not stepped in yet.

Moonkwang who had been taking things lightly started to put more force into his attacks.

And the professionals from the white flower brothel increased their attacks as well.

Gyeongwasn and Yoo hesitated momentarily.

Their original plan had been to block the rest while letting the professionals pass them and enter the room.

But seeing their skills they were concerned whether Taesan would be able to defeat them on his own.

Then the same thought occurred to the two of them.

‘Who’s worrying who. There’s no need to worry for Taesan.’

Moonkwang came straight at Gyeongwan, while the three professionals from the brothel came at Yoo.

Gyeongwan stepped to the side and swung his sword.

Crash!

The immense power in Moonkwang’s sword pushed Gyoengwan far aside.

And just like that, the Moonkwang was about to break open the door.

But the door opened up on its own. in such a timely manner.

And Moonkwang entered the room.

At the same time, those that had been attacking Yoo followed Moonkwang into the room.

And with that, the door closed shut again.

Neither Gyeongwan nor Yoo had the intention to stop them from entering the room.

The two glared at their opponents in front of the closed door.

Now, this was their real fight.

The first to move was Gyeongwan.

Gyeongwan had been struggling to fight his adrenaline.

So he let loose and swung his sword at his opponents.

Claaaang!

The surrounding was filled with clash of energy and fire sparks.

While Gyeongwan attacked in a rough vigorous manner Yoo started her smooth and graceful attacks

Swoosh!

The two had practiced and fought each other to their core, every single day.

Meaning to say, they were most familiar with each other.

They knew one another weak spots, strong points, and habits so their synergy level was optimal.

They moved as if they had become one.

The longer they continued to fight, the more they felt a peculiar sense of familiarity and homeliness.

In comparison, the jong warriors and the warriors from the brothel were not working hand in hand.

Using that as an opportunity, Gyeonwasn and Yoo attacked continuously.

The more they fought, and the more intense their fight became, the more they became one with each other.

***

Moonkwang and the professionals from the white flowers brothel looked for Taesan as soon as they entered the room.

Taesan was seated in a relaxed position and looking at them.

Just then the door of the room closed shut.

The person who had closed the door was the prostitute who had been in the room with Taesan.

She was shaking in fear.

Although they were not sure what had happened in the room, one thing was certain.

“Hmm. Have you been hiding yourself the entire time?”

Moonkwang glared at Taesan with a look of disbelief.

Taesan slowly stood up from where he was seated.

The four who were watching him suddenly felt a strong pressure pushing their whole body down.

Taesan’s words settled heavily on top of that pressure.

“Jong clan loser step aside. I have something to discuss with the rest of them.”
