Chapter 231
Heavenly Realm
The next day, I had a sparring session with the Sword Demon again. Although I didn’t know when I would have to fight Jin So-cheong, I couldn’t just skip my daily training routine. Once the sparring was over and I had caught my breath, the Sword Demon said,
“Your daughter wants to talk to you.”
“……”
“Don’t get all rattled. I don’t think it’s about a betrothal or anything.”
“My apologies.”
I realized my emotions had gotten the better of me. I tried to act nonchalant, but clearly, I wasn’t very good at hiding my feelings yet.
After finishing my training a little earlier, I headed to Seo Mun-hye’s room. Unlike before, she wasn’t dressed in court attire but was wearing a snug martial outfit, complete with a gyeon tied around her head. It was a warrior’s outfit, signaling that she was prepared for battle. The moment she saw me, she greeted me.
“You’re here, Protector.”
