Fabre in Sacheon’s Tang

The place where Cho dragged me was the spot where I used to train my mind.

It was an open space beneath a massive zelkova tree, with a few rocks scattered around. Nearby, the tree that Sister Seol had once cut down with her Blood-Soaked Greenwood Saber now lay on its side, withering away.

As I got closer, still bound by Cho, I heard an angry voice.

— Tssrrr!

Looking down at the sound, I saw Bini rushing out from under the large tree, her expression brimming with fury as if demanding to know why I was only arriving now.

The moment I landed next to Cho and Bini, sharp words struck me.

— Tssr! "Sister, well done!"

— Tssrrr! "Dad, why are you so late!?"

Cho, who had dragged me here, greeted me with great enthusiasm, while Bini, with a sharp tone, scolded me for taking too long.

"I-I was delayed because Uncle Gyu-seong came by..."

— Tssrrt! "Liar! You were hesitating because of Hyang!"

I tried to use Brother Gyu-seong as an excuse, but Bini instantly called me out on my lie, snapping at me.
