Chapter: 102

This was his biggest question here.

“...That is an excellent question.”

“I need to trust you if I am to take you in.”

Yumpa then scratched his head.

“I’ll tell you the truth. No offense, but I actually offered the same thing to the princes of the Wise and Sword Clans.”

He sighed as he said that, which meant that he had been turned down.

“Were you refused?”

“They were already full. They already have skilled warriors serving them. No spots left for me.”

“What about the other four groups?”

It was too quick to give up after meeting just two groups. Yumpa shook his head.

“Yeah... but I thought all the princes from the six clans would be the same.”

“So, I was the second choice?”

Yumpa smiled, “Yeah. And we walk the same path of the blade, don’t we?”

“...Oh?”

Yeowun looked at him weirdly. Yumpa then smiled awkwardly as he continued, “I’m not just asking you to take me in. You can just consider it as using me until you pass the third test.”

It was now up to Chun Yeowun. Yumpa even bowed politely.

“Will you take me in, Prince?”

Chun Yeowun smiled softly. Yumpa thought he had been accepted, so he went down on his knees to show his thanks.

“Thank you for...”

“I refuse.”

“Huh?”

Yeowun spoke to him again.

“I said, I refuse.”

“B-but why?!”

“That’s for you to think about.”

Chun Yeowun turned his back to him. His eyes were cold when he turned.

‘Nano, deactivate facial expression analysis.’

[Deactivating.]

It was one of Nano’s abilities that allowed him to see if the person was lying or not.

‘...He’s suspicious.’
