Chapter 59

Jun was startled. He glanced between Jung-Hee's face and her stretched out hand in disbelief. However, he recovered very quickly from this shock and briskly shook hands with her. 

Upon releasing Jung-Hee's warm hand, another person stepped forward as well.

"Thank you." Hyun said. One could feel the genuine feelings of gratitude in his low tone.

Then Hyun stretched out his arms. He presented Jun with the sword in the most respectful manner possible, with two hands and a slight bow of the head. Jun was startled for the second time that night by this strange couple. 

But even as he appreciated the gesture, the man shook his head, speaking resolutely.
