Saved a Heroine From the Brink of Death

23. The flower language of peonies

#23. Peony flower language

Cynthia bowed her head as soon as she entered her principal’s office.

“Sorry!”

For whatever reason, she didn’t seem to have a good reason for being here.

She’s at the bottom of her ten thousand years, and she couldn’t have looked good in the principal’s eyes… At any rate, in her headmaster’s eyes, something of her own seemed offended.

She doesn’t know what it is….

For that reason, Cynthia immediately bowed her back at 90 degrees and apologized politely.

‘I don’t know what I did wrong… Because there is nothing good I must be wrong… !’

In short.

Since she didn’t do anything right, I thought she must have done something wrong.

It was Cynthia’s way of living.

In normal cases, this was mostly correct, but… I missed out today.

‘…… sh*t?’

The principal was taken aback by Cynthia’s sudden apology.

No, I felt like I was going crazy because I was so flustered.

Her mouth was open and her eyes widened as proof. Cold sweat trickled down his face.

Cynthia couldn’t see it because she hadn’t raised her head yet.

“Principal? What could this be?”

The principal’s assistant, who had recently changed, glared at him and asked.

Her question contained a chilly voice.

At that question, Joo Cheol-myeong felt a chill run down his spine. A sense of fear came over me, fearing that I might end up like the guy who went missing a while ago.

“I, I don’t know. Cadet Cynthia, why are you suddenly doing this? I will raise her head first.”

Principal Joo Cheol-myeong looked at Cynthia and said urgently.

The secretary next to her seemed intent on killing herself.

Every moment is uncomfortable because of this secretary Han Seong-jin attached… Now that I’m beyond uncomfortable, I have to worry about her life.

‘Why are you doing this to me… ! Are you conspiring with Han Seong-jin and trying to kill me? Please raise your head quickly! I called to apologize, but why is he apologizing!’

He wondered if Cynthia was deliberately f*cking him.

At some point, Cynthia raised her head and looked at Joo-cheol Myung with innocent eyes.

Shiny and clean… Innocence oozes out

After seeing that, Joo Cheol-myeong came to a realization.

Ah. That is pure evil

***

I’m f*cking strong.

Wouldn’t it be possible to take a picture of an incompetent person?

Wouldn’t it be better to buy heroes and mercenaries that will become stronger in the future with money, preoccupy Hidden Peace, and deal with the main villains in advance?

… There was a time when I thought

It was when I was immersed in the fact that I was a possessed person.

Age 19 years old.

During my third year of being possessed, I fell ill with secondary illness.

Using the knowledge of the original story, he made contact with the black market, a small number of heroes, and guilds to sell information and make huge amounts of money.

-Khehehehe. f*ck i’m the best If it’s money, it’s a high-level hero, a top-tier hero, and it’s all sh*t.

Since I made some money, I couldn’t see anything.

I had prominent mercenaries as escorts, and I also made connections with politicians.

I was also incompetent.

The last one was the most important.

Why?

Because there is a law that says that even top-notch heroes cannot use violence against civilians.

And at that time, I believed in that law.

Yes. That f*cker believed in the law like an asshole.

In novels, it was followed as if it were an absolute rule.

It’s because it’s high-level, top-class, Nabal, and civilian Houri, because other top-level heroes or the government stepped up.

But… It was possible because it was a novel.

The reality was different.

-Crazy… What is that inspiration?

To be honest, I did not only believe in the law.

That’s why I took a mercenary with me.

I thought that the upper level was of course possible, and that the top level would be able to compete to some extent.

Because he hired the best mercenaries from the black market.

And I received a f*cking true education.

To the top level hero.

– Does this make sense? These are kids who are not pushed even by their superiors… ?

Out of standard.

Out of standard.

Out of standard.

Throughout the battle, only that thought lingered in my head.

The mercenaries, who had shown good battles with advanced heroes, were swept away in an instant.

In less than three minutes, he organized the mercenaries and came to me.

-Oh, don’t come! f*ck! I’m a civilian! If you touch me, you’ll be f*cked too!

– Uh-huh. There’s nothing this damn kid can’t say. Since he’s a little boy, forgive him for a special butt slap.

All the mercenaries were swept away by one top-notch hero, and I was slapped in the cheek with excitement by that hero.

It was just a slap on the butt, but each time it hit me, it hurt as if I had been kicked.

I didn’t know the shame, and I felt like I was going to be left behind.

-Leave this! Inspirational!

-That’s true. This is the first time I’ve seen a guy so stubborn.

The old superlative hero let me go.

When he let me go, I smiled and told him.

-Khehehehe. No matter how inspired you are, the law is a little scary, right?

– Law? Would that be scary at my age? And the reason I let you go is to take you and educate you. That’s why the young guy already has a temper.

– Huh?

Suddenly, the old woman disappeared in front of my eyes and my body floated.

– You’ve been kidnapped.

After that, I learned manners from that old hero.

Then, I learned about life.

“That was already 8 years ago.”

I drank the orange juice with a smile.

It was my favorite drink.

“Yes… It’s been 8 years already. It’s been a long time.”

The old man looked up at the sky and said. The talking old man’s hair was white, and there were age spots on his face.

His name is Cheon Mu-bong.

A superhuman who did not appear in the original work.

For me… He is a grateful person in many ways.

“The weather is cold. Please go inside.”

“All right. Correct me yet. And isn’t it spring now? Let’s go flower viewing.”

His garden was full of flowers.

Bamboo, Forsythia, Camellia, Plum blossom, Cornus officinalis.

Several flowers came together to create a splendid spectacle.

“The day Sungjin brought you was also a spring day like this. I’m asking you now, but did you hate it because some crazy old lady suddenly brought you here?”

It seems to be true that when you grow old, you live with memories.

Seeing that she brought up a lot of old stories like this….

“Yes. To be honest, every night I wanted to jump over the wall and run away like a chimney.”

“It wasn’t like a chimney, but it didn’t escape. I still remember the knocking on the locked door all night.”

“Khehehehe. Does anyone who knows that ask me if I didn’t like it?”

“I just asked once.”

I put on a playful expression, then opened my mouth again.

“It’s farming. To be honest, I didn’t hate it.”

Thanks to Cheon Mu-bong, I learned manners and learned life.

I knew how to live my life and how to treat people.

Through that learning, I was able to achieve success in the United States.

If I hadn’t had him in my life, I’d probably be living on a roadside somewhere in America, or buried somewhere in the ground.

“I’m glad that’s the case.”

His eyes turned to one place.

It was a place where peonies were planted. It was still only half bloomed. Nevertheless, a splendid color was seen.

“Let me ask you one thing. Why do you live as if someone is chasing you, even though you have accumulated so much wealth?”

Like being chased… Maybe it looks like that.

No, actually, I’ve been in a hurry lately.

“There are still mountains to climb.”

The incident in the original story. Villains who are stronger than superlative heroes.

We must prepare for them to appear someday.

To do that, we need Cynthia.

“I see. Take it.”

Mu-bong Cheon handed me something.

It was a long wooden ship.

“I heard you are raising a little girl recently.”

“No, it’s a little bit strange when you say it’s a girl… I don’t even have much of an age difference….”

As expected, the information network is not ordinary as it is about Cheonmubong.

Anyway, I know manners because of this nobleman… As a result, my self-confidence also decreased.

“Anyway, the mountain you have to climb must have something to do with that child. Give it to the child.”

You knew everything from the beginning and sang this inspiration.

After all, the wisdom of the elderly cannot be ignored.

I was handed over the wooden box.

The wooden box itself was heavy, so even taking it over was difficult.

“Tsk tsk. Get some strength Don’t complain all the time that you don’t even have magic, do some strength training.”

“… Yes.”

I opened the wooden box while listening to Cheon Mu-bong’s scolding.

“This is….”

Inside the wooden box was a slenderly curved weapon.

“A bow?”

Right away, it was a bow.

Cynthia’s main weapon.

… You really knew all about this inspiration and called me.

‘Anyway, I sang what I knew… This bow looks really good. At this level. It’s something I can’t get.’

The weapon Cheon Mu-bong gave me was not something that could be obtained with money. I had a windfall

Of course, not me, but Cynthia. I’ll have to think about how to give it later.

“Ah, indeed. Sungjin. Do you know what the flower language of peonies is?”

“Wealth, splendor. Isn’t it?”

“There is one more thing besides that. It’s called a happy marriage. Heh heh heh.”

What are you talking about this inspiration.

It’s not like that.
