Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 158

#158. How do you like this?

* * *

As if I had a headache, I pressed my fingers to my temples and stayed silent for a while.

Limon quietly opened his mouth.

“In short, I was also selected as the White Dragon Princess’ sire?”

“yes.”

“…Should I call that an honor?”

“Isn’t that up to you to accept?”

Li Qingyu smiled bitterly.

Yuna-kyung also opened her beak as if she was dumbfounded.

[To think that even one of the richest sisters in the world was not enough, so only two of them proposed. I didn’t know that the team leader was such a devilish man.]

“Who are you kidding now?”

Limon frowned.

Then he asked Li Qingyu as if questioning him.

“No, why the hell did he want to marry me? I’ve never even met him.”

“That point. Listening to the circumstances, it seems like you haven’t met at all.”

“What do you mean?”

Limon put on a puzzled expression.

And the circumstances revealed by Ainsha.

In other words, I went to the music challenge filming set in secret and heard that a dark-haired young man helped me, and I opened my mouth.

“…Are you saying it was the White Dragon Princess who helped me back then?”

“You didn’t notice at all?”

“Would you have helped if you noticed? I would have let it go even if it had been a bullet instead of a camera!”

[Eh anyway, isn’t that a bit harsh?]

“What’s so bad? If he gets even one wound from being hit by it, I will hold the jang in my hand.”

Even if he was an unmanned member of the Seven Dragons, he would have been able to block or avoid it on his own.

What about the White Dragon Princess?

You don’t even have to say anything.

Although they look like delicate girls on the outside, the seven princesses are the strongest masters of the Seven Dragons. Because they were different from humans from birth.

“Damn it, something kept getting stuck…!”

Limon finally realized.

The awkwardness he felt at the time.

That it was because of Ainsha.

He subconsciously felt a sense of incongruity in her attitude as she calmly watched the camera fly away from her tight-fitting outfit.

At the time, I was just in a panic and thought it was something like that and passed it on.

But that was an illusion.

She must have been calm because she really didn’t feel any danger.

[So, in the end, did you say that you fell in love at first sight because the team leader saved Princess Baekryong?]

“Ignoring whether it was actually dangerous or not, if you go through something like that at the first meeting, it’s usually good to have a good feeling.”

[That’s such a great coincidence.]

Yuna-kyung was confused.

Unless you secretly came to the set.

Unless there is an unexpected accident.

And if Limon wasn’t there at the moment.

It was because it was absurd that something that should have ended with just one incident turned out like this.

It was for this reason that Limon sneered at Yuna-kyung’s words.

“Coincidentally, do you think there is something like that in the things the White Dragon clan does?”

[What do you mean by that?]

“It means fools must have been fooled again.”

[Yes?]

Whether Yuna-kyung is bewildered or not.

Limon didn’t care.

He just asked Li Qingyu, frowning.

“What are you going to do now?”

“Well, to be honest, I’m stumped.”

Even Li Qingyu, who always smiled at most things, expressed his embarrassment honestly this time.

“Although Ainsha has a bit of an eccentric temperament, I didn’t know that she would propose to someone she had only met once.”

“I know the princess who proposed to me as soon as I saw her?”

“Coming to think of it, I don’t think it’s unusual.”

“That is a very persuasive statement.”

Li Mon makes a puzzled expression when he sees Li Ching-yu, who had proposed to him as soon as they first met.

she asked him seriously.

“By the way, I have a question for you to check your swordsman.”

“What do you mean?”

“Are you really unwilling to accept Ainsha’s marriage proposal?”

“…Do you think that’s a question a bride-to-be would ask a groom-to-be?”

“I am still a bride-to-be.”

Li Qingyu pointed out calmly.

I made a marriage contract, but that’s all in the end.

As long as he is not yet married, Limon has the option of canceling his engagement and choosing Ainsha.

“Besides, you promised to marry me before, didn’t you? You can make another woman if you want.”

From the beginning, their marriage was only a means of alliance.

So, if you can maintain an alliance, there is no need to forcefully maintain an arranged marriage with yourself.

Take a moment to look at Li Qingyu as he speaks with a calm face.

Limon sighed.

And snapped my fingers

Fuck!

“…???”

“Princess, haven’t you forgotten something important?”

Maybe it was because I was surprised by a sudden hit on the forehead.

To Li Qingyu, who opened her eyes wide, Limon said coldly.

“I risked my sword and swore I would never abandon you. But now, if I break off the engagement, will I be the sword master? You bastard master.”

“But…”

“Above all, I already warned you.”

It was as if Li Qingyu, who was about to object, blocked his mouth.

Limon said it clearly, looking straight at her with golden eyes.

“You are already mine.”

He said he would no longer hand over what he had in his hands to others.

So she has no freedom to run away.

Li Mon, who made Li Qingyu’s pupils shake with his relentless rants, laughed maliciously.

“Besides, the White Dragon Princess proposed to me because of my false identity. If she knew my identity, would she try to marry me?”

“…It’s exactly as you said.”

Limon casually says what kind of a guy is marrying someone who will run away to the end of the world if he sees his bare face.

Let’s stare blankly at him for a moment.

Li Qingyu eventually smiled and nodded.

[Hey, chicken couples over there? It’s nice to flirt, but should I finish talking about what

I was talking about?]

“We just talked about what we needed to do?”

[Yes, you would.]

Yuna-kyung grumbled with a sad expression as she looked at the two of them.

Did that point work?

Or maybe it’s because of Limon’s night.

Li Qingyu began to seek alternatives in earnest.

“Anyway, I can’t help it if the swordsman doesn’t have the heart to accept this marriage proposal. Let’s try to solve it in the best possible way.”

“How do you mean?”

The condition suggested by Ainsha is to cooperate with the marriage with Limon.

But how could he disregard the condition and resolve the situation in a good way to win the cooperation of the White Dragon clan?

Limon asked, puzzled.

Li Qingyu smiled at him and replied.

“What if you get divorced after you get married?”

“…What’s up?”

“Ainsha’s only request is to cooperate with the marriage contract. I think you can get married first, get divorced, and then remarry me again.”

“Do you want to start a war with the White Dragon Clan?”

“If you don’t like this method, how about Operation Pillar West?”

“Pillars… what?”

“The swordsmith is enchanting Ainsha and making her cooperate. Of course you don’t think you’re going to get married. Is it a method that works surprisingly well?”

“…”

As if he had been waiting for this moment, Limon stiffened with a bizarre face after hearing all the bizarre plans that Li Qingyu laid out.

On his behalf, Yuna-kyung asked shyly.

[…Princess sister, do you have any grudge against Princess White Dragon?]

“Among other princesses, is Ainsha my favorite?”

[That means I like you as a friend, right? You don’t like it in the sense that it’s easy to eat, or

it’s easy, right ?]

[Why do you neither affirm nor deny!?]

In the end, Li Mon and Yu Na-kyung rejected the best plan, and after thinking for a while, Li Qing-yu proposed a more appropriate compromise.

“Then how about this method?”

* * *

While Limon was struggling to solve such an unexpected problem, the popularity of the music challenge was growing.

That’s for two reasons.

The first is that Limon’s performances are completely free and open to the public.

The second reason was that there was a bounty on the song.

“Level Skill Age Occupation Nationality!”

“An event that goes without saying!”

“Anyone can take a video singing along to the assignment song and send it to me!”

“If you just send us the video, we will randomly select 100 people and give you a prize of 10 million won.”

“And the ten people who sing the best songs will be given a chance to participate in the finals with a maximum prize of 100 billion won in addition to the basic prize money of 100 million won.”

“Challenge together!”

“Music~ Challenge!”

In fact, it was a method that Kim Seung-jun came up with after being cornered.

Existing contestants all resigned, and the existence of the program is unclear due to a broadcast accident.

In order to rectify the situation somehow, he tried to make a breakthrough with the bounty.

After all, it was simple money, but the bounty strategy unexpectedly had a big impact.

because of money.

just out of curiosity.

I made a bet with my friend.

Or by coming or pride.

Or bewitched by its melodies and songs.

This is because countless people of all ages and genders have challenged the Ghost Song for their own reasons.

As a result, there was no one who could sing a ghost song.

Most of them were so engrossed in the fantastic performance that they couldn’t even open their mouths, and those who barely sang ended up feeling a sense of shame and shut their mouths on the way.

However, as the number of failures increased, the number of challengers increased, and a vicious circle was created in which the ghost song also spread.

Challenging a ghost song has become a kind of trend.

Naturally, the starting point, the Music Challenge, also became famous and was considered a hit program that would shake up the broadcasting world.

But light casts shadows.

The more popular the music challenge became, the more disadvantaged people naturally appeared.

“I beg your pardon?”

“No, what is that…!”

“Branch manager, branch manager?!”

click.

Moon Chun-yeop was devastated.

He spared no effort to form a bond with the branch manager of the Midas Guild.

And because he actually made use of that network, he was able to work as a powerful member of the WIM Guild.

But at this moment.

That string was broken in vain.

Just because you have an uncomfortable relationship with the guys who made the music challenge or whatever!

“Oops XX!”

Wow Jangchang!

Mun Chun-yeop threw away his smartphone.

No matter how much a song on a broadcast program became a bit famous, it doesn’t make sense for the Midas branch manager to throw himself out.

It means that there is definitely someone who has been playing nightly behind the scenes. And

there was no way he didn’t know

who the culprit was, as he was a powerful figure in WIM.

“Guild leader, bitch! How dare you join hands with those bastards and feed me?”

Moon Chun-yeop was furious.

To Yeon-hwa, who hijacked her personal connections.

To Seungjun Kim, who made this program.

And to Limon, who beat himself up and left no hands on him until he got to this point.

If Claire hadn’t taken care and called a healer, he would still be groping around in the hospital.

“Let’s see, you bastards!”

Moon Cheon-yeop looked through his business card book with an angry expression.

The network he had made using Claire wasn’t limited to Midas.

There were fans of Claire not only in the political and business circles and various guilds, but also in dangerous places unknown to the outside world.

the most dangerous of them all.

As he took out the business card of an organization that was double hidden in the deepest part of the card book, his eyes flashed.

“I’ll make you regret that you dare touch me!”
