Chapter: 437
“Haha, of course. I respect her decision.”
They were trying to get away from the situation by giving decision to someone else. But the elders did not give up easily. Ja Kinkeng spoke.
“Good! Then why don’t we call Elder Mun’s granddaughter here to meet our Prince Chun? Then we will see the decision.”
Ja Kinkeng thought the situation was going to turn the tides toward them with this. It was likely that no woman would outright refuse to marry the son of the Lord.
‘You are digging your own trap, 8th Elder. Crown Prince.’
And to those elders, someone walked up. It was Mun Ku, who had been sitting next to Chun Yeowun.
“Mun... Ku?”
‘Why is he coming out?’
When Mun Ku got up, Chun Mukeum became surprised. He had contacted Mun Ku to bring him into his fold multiple times back at the Demonic Academy, so Mukeum knew Mun Ku very well.
“Mun Ku, why are you... Huh?”
That’s when Mun Ku grabbed the bottom of her chin and pulled. Everyone became shocked at the skin that was pulled off.
“S-skin?!”
“I-Is that the skin mask!?”
Yeowun’s members who did not know Mun Ku’s true identity, including two elders and Chun Mukeum all gasped in shock.
“What...!”
“How can this be!”
Smooth white face with shiny eyes. Small pinkish lips with crescent eyes. Her beautiful face was revealed. Mun Ku, now fully ripe in her age, had grown into a beautiful woman. Mun Ku bowed toward two elders and Chun Mukeum.
“Greetings, Elders and Prince. I am the granddaughter of Elder Mun Yun, Mun Ku.”
It was just a simple action of taking off the mask, but the effect was enough to shock everyone at the guesthouse. Even Bakgi, who was almost emotionless, became shocked and was dumbfounded. Hu Bong’s mouth was open large in his shock.
‘Am-am I dreaming?’
Of course, he wasn’t. Hu Bong then thought of many events in the past where he stripped naked and walked proudly in front of Mun Ku and all other events. Hu Bong became pale.
‘Nooooooooooo!’
Hu Bong covered his face and looked away. Chun Mukeum was also shocked by the unexpected identity of Mun Ku.
‘So, he was actually ‘she’?’
He didn’t imagine a stupid face hiding such beautiful woman underneath the mask. Mun Ku’s beauty even made him become astonished. But the problem of this event was elsewhere.
‘God dammit!’
Chun Mukeum had tried hard to have other members from the high-ranking clans join him just like other princes. Chun Mukeum did not act aggressively like Chun Yuchan from the Blade clan, but he was arrogant in his nature so he even threatened Mun Ku to join him once.
‘Well, if you are so persistent on not joining me... I promise you that if I become Crown Prince, I will remove the name of Demon Dragon Clan from the face of the cult. If you don’t care about that, then keep on with your neutral stance.’
Chun Mukeum said that and just proposed to the person whom he threatened in such a way. He couldn’t even look at Mun Ku from embarrassment.
‘Skin Mask...’
