GMLS Ch 9
It was already well known that the Emperor's condition was not good. However, by taking all sorts of precious and rare medicines and keeping the top ten physicians in the country by his side, he was barely prolonging a life that should have ended. He had already lived for too long. With his weakened body, it would not be strange if his life ended tomorrow. Currently, there were a total of three princes residing in the Imperial Palace, aside from the Crown Prince. The 2nd Prince Simuk, the 3rd Prince…-

I waited for the 5th Prince to wet his throat and then asked. “Your Highness, there is something I would like to ask.” “What is it?” “After overlooking your impudence until now, there seems to be no end to it. Do you truly wish to be punished?” “If you do not wish to answer, I will not ask again.” He paused. The empty teacup hit the table with a sharp, irritated thak. I remained silent. A long while later, he spoke as if sighing. “It is Muryun…-

The coughing had certainly subsided. Now, it was just the occasional habitual clearing of his throat. It really was because of me. Reproaching myself, I resolved to speak less from now on, but then the 5th Prince spoke to me. “Did you suddenly become a mute who’s eaten honey?” “Pardon?” “You were chattering away just fine until now, so why the sudden change of heart?” Is that strange? I tilted my head, then thought it might be. The psychology of a tavern keeper who becomes…-

The place we arrived at was the garden where I did my morning training, and it was also the spot where the window of the 5th Prince's quarters was visible. The 5th Prince, standing in a secluded spot, turned to look at me. “What in the world are you trying to do?” “Pardon?” “It seems you won't understand unless I say it directly, so I'll just ask you outright. What is your purpose for approaching me? For what reason have you appointed yourself as my Captain of the Guard?” “Did I…-

I moved the side dishes onto the table one by one. I set down the spoon and chopsticks neatly as well. After finishing, I naturally stood in attendance beside him. The 5th Prince let out a ‘Heh-’ sound, as if in disbelief. It was the first time I had heard his voice since coming here. It, too, was no different from my memory. ‘After you finish the rice gruel, you must take your medicine.’ ‘If you eat well, I will give you a yakgwa. Or do you prefer yeot?’ ‘That’s right. There you…-

GMLS Ch 4
Yeo Yullyeong led me to the marketplace. After walking for some time, he stopped at a place where a group of ruffians was gathered. Don't tell me he's going to throw me into that pack of ruffians. Even if I were thrown in with both hands tied, that lot wouldn't even be a proper post-meal workout. As I narrowed my eyes, Yeo Yullyeong gestured towards the ruffians with his chin. “Look closely.” As he said, I looked closely. They were beating someone to death. It was a young boy, still of a…-

‘Is it really because of those ten days?’ Ten days, five years ago. The Yihwa of that time was truly nothing more than a handful. When he was first taken out of the mother-of-pearl box, it wouldn't have been strange if he had died right then and there. In fact, the physician who first examined his condition shook his head. It was Muryun who had saved him, feeding him rice gruel every hour, wrapping him tightly in a cotton quilt, and massaging his limbs. Color returned to his cheeks, which had…-

Turning back, Yihwa’s eyes caught sight of the dazed faces. Utterly pathetic. This wasn't a war, but a ‘test.’ A race to see who could reach the Sky Monument first. In that sense, the 3rd Prince was a failure from the start. His foolishness was astonishing. With more people, movement naturally slows down. What more was there to say about him preparing cargo wagons? The 3rd Prince should have caught on when he saw that the 2nd Prince, whose faction was large and solid, had only thirty…-

GMLS Ch 16
The 3rd Prince’s group had the most people. A rough count came to a hundred. The 2nd Prince had about a third of that, around thirty men. The aura of each and every one of them was extraordinary. Moreover, the horses they brought were all worthy of being called fine steeds. A small elite force with mobility; it wasn't a bad choice. A murmur arose from one side, and the widely deployed group parted to both sides. It was a completely different reaction from when they had just stared blankly at the…-

Wi Junghyuk did not answer. To be precise, he was so shocked that he was at a loss for words. “Do you know what you are saying right now?” “They are words from my own mouth. Of course, I would know. How embarrassing to be such a doting father.” “Shangshuling!” “Yes, Captain of the Imperial Guard.” Wi Junghyuk seriously wondered if this man was trying to assassinate him by raising his blood pressure. That was how absurd Yeo Yullyeong’s request was. Finally, his head…-
