Overgeared

"It’s coming from the direction of the Lava Prison.”

The yangbans quickly grasped where the explosion took place. Considering the distance between the royal palace and the Lava Prison here, the yangbans’ hearing was beyond the category of a human.

"I don’t understand why an uproar is happening in the capital. Is there a war?”

“No way.”

The other kingdoms knew that the yangbans were currently staying in Kars. They wouldn’t dare to cause a disturbance. Everybody knew that those who weren’t polite to the yangbans would meet a terrible end.

“I heard that Han Seokbong is locked up in the Lava Prison. It’s likely there’s a group trying to rescue Han Seokbong and causing a disturbance."

“Hoh... They aren’t afraid of us.”

"They’re afraid. But there are people willing to rescue Han Seokbong. The Han Seokbong father and daughter are nobles representing the Cho Kingdom and have many followers.”

"Hrmm, I heard there was a black horse jiangshi at the Lava Prison. Is there anyone in the Cho Kingdom who can face the black horse jiangshi?”

“It’s possible for the Cho King’s 10 Swords.”

“10 Swords? Isn’t the Cho King the one who decided that Han Seokbong would be executed? Does it make sense that one of his confidants would try to rescue Han Seokbong? Ah, don’t tell me?”

“It would fit. The Cho King is famous for his affection for Han Seokbong.”

The reason why the Cho King announced that he would execute Han Seokbong was due to the yangbans. The Cho King actually wanted to save Han Seokbong. It wasn’t strange that he would work to rescue Han Seokbong.

"In the end, the Cho King is behind the group trying to rescue Han Seokbong? Kukuk... The Cho King dares to deceive the yangban?”

Kwaduduk!

One especially luxurious dressed man was excited. The name of the angry man was Garam. He was famous for his strong sense of consciousness. He wouldn’t forgive anyone who damaged the name of the yangbans. All human life other than the yangbans were trivial.

"I will make the Cho King shed tears of blood.”

The two other men paid attention to Garam, who got up to walk out of the room.

"I don’t care what you do, but keep in mind that this isn’t the Hwan Kingdom. We have to keep the dignity of the yangbans in front of the residents.”

"I will take care of it."

The upset Garam immediately headed to the great hall. But the Cho King wasn’t present.

"His Majesty has gone to the execution ground. As you know, it’s Han Seokbong’s execution...”

‘He’s the one pulling the strings of Han Seokbong’s rescue, yet he’s pretending not to know anything?’

A tricky bastard. Garam flew coldly and suddenly stopped in the air. His eyes, which boasted better vision than a hawk, focused on the Lava Prison.

“Isn’t it more exciting if the Han Seokbong rescue plan fails? Kukukuk!”

Pahat!

Garam floated in the ashy sky. He moved his feet lightly and he disappeared without a trace.
