Chapter: 330
Mun Ku’s eye enlarged. Nhu Yayen, who should have been only an advisor, stood in his place and created blue force qi over his hand to block Yeowun’s attack. Yeowun smiled and spoke to Nhu Yayen.
“Will you still say you are not Huan Yi?”
“...This is unexpected.”
Huan Yi the Thousand Faces’s test. It was test that was actually set up to be almost impossible. No one other than the Lord has seen Huan Yi’s real face. Not even Mun Ku, daughter of Huan Yi’s friend had saw Huan Yi’s real voice or face. It was impossible to find out the real answer when they didn’t even know what the answer was. Huan Yi had weird personality. The reason of the first test was to have Yeowun become surprised and look at his reaction to it, not to make him find the answer. He was going to be satisfied if Yeowun calmly tried to find the answer. But he didn’t expect Yeowun will really find him.
“How did you know?”
When Nhu Yayen revealed his power, the entire air around the courtyard was filled with strong power that pressed down. Even Mun Ku, super master level warrior had shivered from the energy. It seems the internal energy had dark energy that made it feel creepy.
“You wouldn’t say you just picked one, wouldn’t you?”
“It was telepathic message.”
“Telepathic message?”
Yeowun remembered while ago. When he first saw Nhu Yayen, he didn’t even think he was Huan Yi, as Nhu Yayen hid his energy perfectly. His feminine action also played a part too. But when Yeowun saw seven Huan Yi up on the table, he felt something was strange. Huan Yi, who had been talking naturally, began to speak with some time after being questioned, after Mun Ku introduced herself.
‘Why is he doing that?’
Yeowun who thought it was weird, then noticed Mun Ku’s neck shaking faintly when she sent telepathic message to him. Yeowun then changed the subject quickly so that fake Huan Yi cannot react. And as expected, the Huan Yi that spoke with him took some time to answer.
‘No one... is shaking on their neck.’
Yeowun who thought if his guess was wrong, thought maybe it was possible to send telepathic message even without shaking the neck and asked Nano.
‘Nano, can you find out how the sound is made, when Mun Ku sent me that telepathic message? On how it works?’
He only asked just in case, but unexpected answer came back.
[It is possible. Detected different frequency of vibration. Adjusting it to make user able to hear it.]
With Nano’s word ending, Yeowun had weird faint whistling sound coming through his ear, and heard something he had not heard until now.
[I’ve been treating you as such from the beginning.]
When the voice heard, the Huan Yi on the table spoke the same thing.
“I’ve been treating you as such from the beginning.”
‘Oh!’
Someone was talking in telepathic message and Huan Yi was just copying it through his mouth.
[Didn’t you know? Elders are allowed to test the person if he is worthy to receive the medal of allegiance.]
“Didn’t you know? Elders are allowed to test the person if he is worthy to receive the medal of allegiance.”
He now knew why none of seven Huan Yi’s neck was shaking. It was because none of them were sending telepathic message. The message was clearly coming from the back, at the entrance of the guesthouse.
‘Wow... so I can tap into telepathic messages!’
It was more shocking that Nano can hear other people’s telepathic message. But Yeowun couldn’t explain that Nano’s ability made him tap into telepathic message, and he didn’t need to reveal this either.
“You have been taking time to answer ever since Mun Ku introduced. I thought someone might be sending telepathic message then.”
“?!”
