Chapter 365: Shadow Cast By The Wind (8)
All of the palaces in the Pung Empire were named after legendary beast or heroes from myths and legends.
For instance, the Iron Queen Palace was named after the wife of the Iron General 'Cheolyata,' a statue mocked by everyone for not moving.
However, after her diligent care, the statue miraculously turned into a real person. This palace was known as the residence for queens or princesses.
Of course, Jeliel knew nothing about such stories. She merely assumed this was a lavish palace meant to host distinguished guests.
"I'm Pung Harang, the youngest son of the Pung family."
When she first saw the boy, who looked like a human block of muscle, her first impression was that everything about him was rigid—his expression, his muscles.
"Hmph! I'm..."
"Shh, senior. Introductions later."
Then, when she saw the boy named Deok Cheol-Gwang behind him, huffing like a bull, she slightly adjusted her initial impression.
'...His muscles look even more rigid.'
As someone like Jeliel, who maintained just enough fitness to avoid collapsing while sitting at her desk, people who overtrained their muscles like that only seemed foolish to her.
