Chapter 100
The rest were dressed beautifully as well, but in a similar fashion, serving as guards. They didn't need to choose something dazzling, but something that allowed them to relax slightly and facilitated their movement during combat.
"This city is truly beautiful, yet it's a bit..." Seoul was beautiful, but in this era, it was very primitive, especially since the Nobles in this Realm, like vampires, were sucking the blood of the Joseon Realm, leading to a halt in civilization's progress not only in Joseon but everywhere else.
Perhaps, if KE hadn't arrived on time, a group of people would have started to destroy civilization, as happens everywhere.
"But the good thing is, King Seong-gye and Queen Mei-hua are very kind," Raizel and the rest nodded. After half an hour of walking and turning, they learned that there were two factions fighting: the royal family faction, which is all about the people, and the human Nobles faction, who want to make everyone their slaves.
Just like my previous world! KE shook his head and sighed but lifted his head high and continued to search for information.
It's not the right time for that yet. In two weeks, I'll return home and start making more plans.
While KE was thinking, they entered a cafe exclusive to Nobles and merchants. There were many women and men sitting, enjoying tea, food, and wine under the moonlight.
The place was noisy, but everything quieted down as soon as KE and his guards entered.
Let's not talk about KE's beauty; it alone would require ten chapters to explain. The beauty of Raizel, Tao, Takeo, Regis, M-21, and Raven was fantastic.
As for Raven, who was disfigured due to many experiments when he was with the Union, his original appearance was restored through the purification of Etheora within his body, which did many chemical adjustments to his body and healed everything.
His appearance now was like a fierce fighting general filled with wisdom, with sharp eyes and a naturally large body, making his charm and charisma increase.
A young servant, eight or nine years old, quickly approached KE because he felt that the red-haired boy was the leader, given the noble aura emanating from him. "Onii-chan, would you like to reserve a table or a private room?"
KE looked at him and smiled slightly at the boy in front of him. "Young man, helping your parents with this job is very good. You're better than thousands of men who just leech off their parents' money. By the way, since you mentioned it, I want to book a private room."
Many men and boys felt ashamed by KE's words, which were like a slap to their faces, making many noble and high-background girls laugh and throw many looks at KE.
The private room was just a beautiful place filled with flowers that light up at night and flowing water. Still, it wasn't private because everyone could see or even hear them but couldn't enter because it was forbidden. These places were always filled with human Nobles and royal family members.
Curiosity already filled their eyes, as the old sages said, curiosity kills the cat, and all the great background and noble girls were cats ready to be tamed by a man with manners and a masculine aura that made them feel safe and comfortable behind his back.

KE ruffled the long hair of the young, no, the little man, and nodded secretly, appreciating his hard work.
The little man refused to let anyone ruffle his hair, but since this elder brother in front of him was beautiful and kind, he would allow it... just this once.
"Onii-chan, this is the table for seven people. Take your time ordering anything, and I'll come quickly." KE threw a Nyang coin (the currency of the Joseon Realm) at him. The little man's eyes shone, and he smiled gratefully before leaving.
A single Nyang coin could easily support a whole family for two months. This was just KE's gift to the little man in appreciation of his actions.
When they arrived at the place and spread the mats on the ground to sit, KE, looking at the menu in his hand, turned to Raizel and the others. "Let's choose something to eat and drink, even though it's not important for us because we don't need food to be satisfied, but let's try." The rest nodded as well, and after a while, the young man returned.
"Onii-chan, what have you chosen? If you don't know what to choose, I can tell you that our grilled chicken, cooked by my mother, is the best." KE and the others chuckled a bit, attracting a little attention.
While KE was shaking his head slightly, thinking that one grilled chicken would not be enough to satisfy them, he threw five Nyang coins at the young man and said, "Since it's our first time in Seoul, we want everything on the menu, including your oldest wine. Take these two more coins as a thank you, young man."
The young man's eyes sparkled when he saw KE wink at him, making him blush. "Onii-chan, don't call me young man; I am a girl." KE froze, making the princesses around him look at him because his expression was adorable.
The little girl puffed her cheeks like a cute squirrel. "Mooo, Onii-chan, you, sigh, if you don't learn how to talk to women, you'll be alone." A spiritual arrow hit KE's heart, depleting half of his HP.
Raizel and the other men laughed for the first time, feeling that watching KE, who is always unshakable even in front of Alaya and Gaya, showing these expressions was the best moment of their lives.
They felt that KE had changed a lot, becoming more open and showing his true personality, no longer confining himself. [It seems we'll have many such moments. We need to learn how to contain our laughter well. He's our emperor; we must maintain a bit of dignity pfffff].
When Takeo sent a mental message, he couldn't help but laugh because he saw Tao laughing, and so did many princesses from different realms.
KE looked around and felt embarrassed for the first time. He coughed twice to slightly change the subject, but he looked at the little girl with a bit of anger in his eyes, though they also held great unseen pleasure. Even Raizel didn't notice it. "Tell me, little girl, what is your name?"
Haneulbi smiled gracefully and said in her soft, beautiful voice, "My name is Haneulbi, Jung Haneulbi, Onii-chan." KE calmed his wayward mind, afraid that the FBI might knock on his door at any moment.
KE smiled at her, covering his lascivious thoughts with positive ones. "Haneulbi, Rain from Heaven, hoho, it's a very beautiful name. Now go quickly, or your parents will be angry at you for leaving the client without food."
Haneulbi shivered when she remembered her father punishing her for cleaning the house instead of the maid. "Thank you, Onii-chan, for reminding me. I'll go now; wait a bit, I'll bring you the food." She left quickly without noticing that she forgot to ask for KE's name.
Well, it doesn't matter. I'll tell her when we leave. We might not meet again for months, maybe years. KE shook his head slightly and sighed. This is the life of an emperor: work, work, and more work. The slightest mistake could affect millions of innocent people.
Therefore, an emperor must be perfect, and KE's goal is beyond perfection.
"By the way, Raizel, I sensed a strong aura in Seoul. Do you think it might be Frankenstein?" Raizel tilted his head to the side and drank tea while the eyes of Tao, Takeo, Regis, Raven, and M-21 became sharp.
They knew from Raizel that he had a servant named Frankenstein.
There were many legends about Frankenstein, the most famous being the mad scientist who sold his soul to the devil or the person who became immortal by erasing his emotions, etc.
But this legend was different. Frankenstein despised the Nobles and sympathized with humans.
He fought himself, refusing to harm humans. He was different from the current Union, led by the late hero Dr. Crumbel, who, although he died a good death at the hands of KE, 😂.
