Ch. 1 Sold them
Jimin Park
Are you sure about this? What if he doesn't live here anymore.
Jung Ho Seok
We just gotta try. I want the informations he has.
Jimin Park
*Sigh* Alright, fine.
Jung Ho Seok
.... *Knocks*
Lady
*Opens the door* ? Hello? Can I help you?
Jung Ho Seok
Yeah, uhm. Is Jeon Sikseon here? Do you happen to know him?
Jung Ho Seok
We're his distant relatives. My mother told me that he could help me find my father.
Lady
Uhm, well, if we're talking about the same Jeon Sikseon, he died long ago. He didn't live here, though. You can try that house over there. His nephew lives there.
Jung Ho Seok
? *Looks at the house* Ah, you mean that....
Lady
Creepy house? Yes. It is.
Jimin Park
His nephew lives there? Please tell me at least one of you saw him?
Lady
Yeah, once. He's a young man who goes into the forest to collect firewood and hunt wild animals.
Jung Ho Seok
Ah, pardon me, but do you Know his name?
Lady
No. Not really. We all know him but we have no idea about his name or where he came from. Mr. Jeon just brought him home one day.
Jimin Park
That's not relieving to hear, is it?
Jung Ho Seok
.... Thank you for your help, miss.
Jimin Park
Hoseok, I don't think I'll be going there with you.
Jung Ho Seok
Come on. You're a fire Elementalist. Ghosts are your least problems.
Jimin Park
I know that. But I just feel like there aren't just ghosts here!
Jung Ho Seok
Don't be such a pu**y. Come on!
Jung Ho Seok
... *Knock* Hello? Anybody here?
Jimin Park
See, nobody's here. Let's go back, how about that?
Jung Ho Seok
*Ignores Jimin's warning and continues to call for someone*
Jimin Park
*Startled* AAAAAHH! GHOOSST!
Jung Ho Seok
*Also startled(By Jimin)* Ah... Y-You're...
Jungkook Jeon
Ah, sorry. *puts down the firewood* How do I owe you?
Jimin Park
Uh, Nope. I'm going.
Jung Ho Seok
*Pulls Jimin back* Uhm, I'm Ho Seok. An Imperial Knight sent personally by her majesty. I just have an important question to ask you.
Jungkook Jeon
? What is it?
Jung Ho Seok
.... Do you know where Kim Songtae is?
Jimin Park
Kim Songtae, the Prince Regent!
Jungkook Jeon
Ahh- ..... No. Never heard of that.
Jung Ho Seok
M. Did you uncle not mention anything to you?
Jungkook Jeon
Do you mean Uncle Jeon? Nope. That old man never tells me what he does. He just orders me around like a servant.
Jimin Park
Man... Well, another dead end. Come on, Hoseok.
Jung Ho Seok
Did he perhaps leave anything behind when he passed away?
Jungkook Jeon
Hmm. No. Not that I remember. His woodcrafts perhaps? But what's up with it?
Jung Ho Seok
Could you show me those woodcrafts?
Jungkook Jeon
Oh, I sold them.
Jungkook Jeon
Yeah. That old man had no money when he died so I sold his crafts to buy food, or else am I suppose to guard them?
Jung Ho Seok
I-... Well....
