Trash of the Count's Family

Ko Seh Bum, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance.

He was the adopted son of the former Alliance leader and was said to have talents for martial arts that only appears once every five hundred years.

He had two subordinates.

They were the two people who helped him the most to become the alliance leader.

One of them was Zhuge Mi Ryeo.

“It’s been a while, Elder Ho-nim.”

Zhuge Mi Ryeo gently alighted to the ground like a fairy from the sky and smiled elegantly.

– Young master-nim, she is the one who is currently responsible for all of the Martial Arts Alliance’s strategies. Apparently even the Alliance leader needs her permission to move a large number of troops.

Cale listened to Chief Eunuch Wi’s information as he watched the gate to the Martial Arts Alliance castle open.

– That is Zhuge Mi Ryeo’s top assistant, Zhuge Eun So. She is Zhuge Mi Ryeo’s disciple and is accepted as the future Chief Advisor.

“It has been so long, Elder Ho-nim.”

Zhuge Eun So smiled brightly and bowed respectfully.

Chief Advisor Zhuge Mi Ryeo. Zhuge Eun So, who was standing slightly behind her.

– …They are called Big Ghost and Little Ghost.

Cale looked at the two people after hearing what Chief Eunuch Wi finally said after a while of hesitation.

Zhuge Mi Ryeo…

She was over fifty years old and had been by Ko Seh Bum’s side since they were younger. She was giving off the aura of someone who had been through numerous battlefields.

As for Zhuge Eun So…

She seemed to be in her mid to late twenties and gave off a cute aura while her eyes showed brilliance.

“It is an honor to meet you like this, young master Kim-nim.”

Zhuge Mi Ryeo showed respect to Cale at that moment.

‘As expected of the advisor!’

Chief Eunuch Wi was amazed by her action.

The Chief Advisor was said to have meaning behind even the smallest actions she took.

‘It has not even been an hour since we came to Wuhan.’

Cale’s group had openly entered Wuhan with Elder Ho, the rising stars, and the members of the Martial Arts Alliance.

They then headed immediately for the Martial Arts Alliance.

Basically, it meant that the Chief Advisor figured out their location and came out to greet them like this in less than an hour.

‘Furthermore, the amount of respect the Chief Advisor showed the young master-nim right now is excessive for a normal young master!’

However, it was not formal enough to address a member of the Imperial family.

This meant that she knew he was a member of the Imperial family but that he wanted to hide his identity. As a result, she was only greeting him with this level of formality.

‘They say that you need to be careful around Zhuge Mi Ryeo because her words and actions are hiding daggers.’

Chief Eunuch Wi gulped.

‘This won’t be easy.’

One way to suppress the opponent was through force and spirit, but Zhuge Mi Ryeo’s methods were just as ferocious as a battlefield.

‘It looks like I will need to step in.’

It was highly likely that an esteemed individual like young master Kim Hae-il would not be good at a battle of words.

That was why it would be better for him to step in as someone who has fought battles with this blade called words in the Imperial Palace.

“It is my honor as well to meet such an esteemed individual in person.”

Zhuge Eun So greeted with respect as well and the Chief Advisor smiled gently while speaking to Cale.

“The Alliance leader-nim is waiting for you, sir.”

The person the Alliance leader was waiting for…

The moment the Chief Advisor said those words, the guards at the gate as well as everybody around them flinched and observed Cale.

Everybody even quieted their breathing.

‘It is time for me to step in.’

Chief Eunuch Wi took a step forward. He and Elder Ho exchanged glances at that moment as well.

– Elder Ho-nim, this is not the time for us to have a battle of spirit. You know that, right?

– Ahem. Of course!

Elder Ho peeked at young master Kim while responding to Chief Eunuch Wi’s sound transmission.

Young master Kim was just standing there smiling. Elder Ho got the chills even more after seeing that.

He wanted to immediately tell Zhuge Mi Ryeo something.

‘Chief Advisor! This is not the time to have a battle of spirit with young master Kim!’

The way she used her martial arts to climb over the castle wall to how Zhuge Mi Ryeo brought her disciple, Zhuge Eun So and even mentioned the Martial Arts Alliance leader, she looked ready to fight young master Kim to gather information.

‘It is understandable.’

He could understand her train of thought.

‘She doesn’t know anything.’
