Chapter 279
Upon seeing Kotaro frozen, Seol scanned at everyone with a cold, expressionless face.
The chilling gaze made the transferees uneasy, but there was someone even more disturbed than them.
'My body…'
It was Kotaro—whose body had frozen in place with his hand on the hilt of his sword while standing before Seol.
Kotaro believed that there wasn't anyone in Seong Jo who could stop him. Most of the Central Army that had been sent here had been swept away, and among the transferees, no one could oppose him.
'Just now… someone was glaring at me.'
Although he clashed with the soldiers and acted aggressively, he hadn't planned to escalate things further–of course, water had already spilled, so he was prepared to display some of his power.
That's why he placed his hand on the hilt of his sword. However, he never imagined that he wouldn't be able to draw the sword within.
That was because Seol had placed his hand on the sword hilt and blocked his stance.
