Chapter: 795

Ran-yeong spoke in a serious voice.

She had spent two hundred years in the Imperial Palace’s underground.

Waiting a little longer wouldn’t bother her.

“Great. Then there’s something that, Great Elder has to do.”

“Me?”

Chun Yeowun told her what he’d been thinking of.

After hearing the entire plan, her pale face brightened, as if she’d regained some of her long lost vigor.

“I have received the command! I shall follow the order!”

“Nice. Then, I guess I need to leave the Imperial Palace now.”

It was already the end of the celebration.

Before dawn, there was something he had to do before leaving the Imperial Palace.

As he turned around to leave, Ran-yeong suddenly called for him.

“W-wait a minute! Lord!”

“Hmm?”

“...hm, uhm, there are some extra clothes in the chamber for both of you, please wear them before heading out.”

“!?”

Right!

They hadn’t noticed it, but Yeowun’s clothes had been burned by the black flames whilst he’d been in the pond, Chun Yeowun was nothing but naked.

No matter how fast he moved, going around the Imperial Palace naked, would still be embarrassing.

As morning came, chaos reigned in a certain place inside the Imperial Palace

The corpses of the East Spear’s members and the court ladies, who were considered to be the Imperial palace’s Guardians, had been found in the Guest House, where the East Spear warriors rested.

They had been found early in the morning, and the bad news made everyone within the palace upset.

The Imperial Palace hadn’t discovered the incident earlier because the Guards who were supposed to be on duty had already been eliminated.

“This is terrible!”

An Imperial Guard, Lieutenant Lee-am, shook his head.

He’d gotten an emergency alert from the council, and upon arriving, the sight of terribly mutilated corpses and the smell of blood welcomed him.

‘Such a massacre happened here and no one knew anything about it?’

What he was witnessing was so weird and illogical that it was hard to believe.

The intruders had even made sure to kill those who’d been on watch duty. That’s maybe why no one heard about it.

‘Did they really block all the noise that would be made from such a large massacre?...No, I must have lost my mind!’
