Daeho Village

Tonight the Crown Prince looks very restless, I don't know what is bothering him that he can't sleep. He decided to leave his residence for a walk.

"I don't need to be escorted by many people, I want to calm down," said the Crown Prince to the eunuch.

"Where are you going on a night like this, Your Majesty?" asked the eunuch anxiously.

"I just wanted to go to the lake for a bit," replied the Crown Prince.

"Let Kang uk accompany you," begged the eunuch to the Crown Prince.

Kang Uk is the new bodyguard of the Crown Prince who was chosen directly from the King. Crown Prince then walked away, eunuch pushed Kang Uk to follow Crown Prince. He walked towards the lake, then the Crown Prince sat on the grass near the lake.

"Are you happy with your current job?" asked the Crown Prince to Kang Uk.

"Of course, Your Majesty," replied Kang Uk.

"Why do you want to work like this? Isn't this a dangerous job, at any time your life could be lost," said the Crown Prince.

"Every decision that a person has made means he has to accept all the consequences," replied Kang Uk.

"Are you willing to give your life for me?" asked the Crown Prince.

"Of course Your Majesty, from now onwards I will take care of Your Majesty and my life now is only to serve Your Majesty," replied Kang Uk.

"Ah right to serve me," murmured the Crown Prince with a smile looking up at the sky.

The Crown Prince lay down on the grass near the lake, he closed his eyes for a moment. He saw the face of his dead mother, he missed his mother very much. He feels that in this world no one understands his feelings except his mother.

He opened his eyes, and looked at the palm of his hand that appeared a lump of water.

"Only I inherit mother's power," murmured the Crown Prince.

Eun Ha is contemplating what she will do to defeat the intruder. There is only one intruder in front of him, but Eun Ha can't beat him easily even though he is proficient with the sword, of course his opponent is not comparable because the intruder is proficient in magic.

"It seems that all these intruders have all been equipped with magic," Eun Ha muttered.

Eun Ha thinks hard, she can't just rely on her sword skills, she has to play cunning if her opponent is stronger than her. Eun Ha looked at the intruder, she saw that one of the intruder's clothes was lifted and Eun Ha saw that there was a rope tied around the intruder's waist. Eun Ha had an idea, she took her sword back and ran towards the intruder, but the intruder swung his sword at Eun Ha and again Eun Ha was thrown, but this time she didn't fall, she could control her body and landed on the ground safely.

In attacking the intruder first, he toyed with the intruder's strength with his agility. Then he grabbed the intruder's shoulder and he managed to cut the rope around the intruder's waist with his sword.

"Ah!" shouted Eun Ha, covering her face.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" shouted the intruder.

Turns out it was a trouser strap, because Eun Ha cut the rope, the intruder's pants slipped and made the intruder run into the bushes in shame. Eun Ha is surprised by what she saw earlier.

"Ah it's okay Eun Ha, that's a good idea, it's okay," Eun Ha mumbled to calm herself down.

Then Eun Ha ran into the village, the situation inside was very chaotic, the intruder shot an arrow whose tip was given a fire, it set one of the residents' houses on fire, but not only one arrow they shot but many and made quite a fire big.

Eun Ha is confused which way to go, because she doesn't know the face of the Daeho Village leader.

He asked the Village office to the residents there, but they were busy saving themselves.

"Hey, where is the village office located?" Eun Ha asked one of the residents there.

"It's in the middle of the village, that way," replied the person indicating the direction.

"Thank you, you better run to the forest over there and go to the city," Eun Ha said then she ran in the direction the person pointed.

He was confused which direction he should follow, suddenly a fire arrow came aiming at him. Eun Ha is surprised that someone is pulling her hand, she is very shocked because she almost lost her life because of the fire arrow.

"Why are you running there, it's dangerous," the man said to Eun Ha.

"There's something I need to find, let me go," said Eun Ha, pulling her hand and running through the village.

The man is confused and annoyed with Eun Ha, but he runs to follow Eun Ha. Finally Eun Ha finds the Daeho Village office and seeing part of the office on fire, she runs into the office.

"Has he gone mad," said the man not believing what Eun Ha was doing, but he still followed Eun Ha to go inside.

Eun Ha rummages through the office, but there's absolutely no one inside. He checked the Daeho Village chief's desk, he found a letter. Then he opened the letter.

"I WILL NOT ACCEPT THAT OFFER AT ANYTIME,"

Eun Ha saves the letter then she goes out of the office, she stops for a moment then looks back. He saw that the man was still following him.

"Don't follow me anymore," Eun Ha said and then left the man.

"Hey wait!" call the man to Eun Ha.

Eun Ha walks looking for the village head, she walks around the village alone, the fire gets bigger making Eun Ha short of breath and coughs. Suddenly there was one of the residents' houses that collapsed in the fire, because the house in the village was made of flammable materials, the road that Eun Ha was going to take was blocked by the ruins of the house, Eun Ha looked for another way. Suddenly Eun Ha is confronted by three men, it seems they are the intruder.

"Why don't you give me a way to go home?" Eun Ha muttered while coughing.

"Looks like you're looking for something, want us to help?" said one of the people to Eun Ha.

"Looks like I went the wrong way, I'm sorry uncle," Eun Ha said with a sweet smile.

"Hahaha wrong way? hey where are you from? who gave that task to you huh!" said one of the intruders.

"I'm just going home, look at that, it's my family's house uncle, I'm very sad why people have the heart to do this," said Eun Ha starting her drama, suddenly a man came.

"You know me?" said a man appeared, and it turned out to be the person who Eun Ha cut his pants strap.

Eun Ha walks in the opposite direction of the intruder, but Eun Ha is blocked again. Eun Ha was surrounded, they all took out their swords and drew their swords at Eun Ha.
