"I must stay close to the crown prince in the mission to prevent anything bad from happening", Kang Yun said to himself.
Yi San walked out and met Seo Hwa waiting for him under the same tree they stood before. She looks so beautiful like the flower blooming in the sunshine.
"Are you ready now, where is your bodyguard", she asked me as I approached her. I couldn't hear her well all I was looking at his her eyes down to her lips, she was very pretty in her armour. I began to wonder how I fought with her wearing this the first time we met.
"Yi San", she managed to call me out of my imagination. She noticed I was lost in thought.
Her beauty locked up my lips, and I couldn't speak. She moved close to me and kissed me on the lips suddenly.
"why is your face red", she asked me as she blushed.
"No... No.. It's not that... I..i ... Am okay... It's just stress", I stammered.
"I didn't say anything", she touched my lips as she blushed again. I thought I would be less attractive to him since I am pregnant but I think that doesn't work for me.
"where is Kang Yun?" we should be on our way now", she asked me as I cleared my throat.
"he will join us soon, let's wait here", I replied to him as I saw two soldiers bringing the wounded soldier to where we stood.
"he is walking perfectly now", I said as he approached us.
"Good evening my Leader and good evening my prince", he greets us calmly.
"good evening Muk son, are you alright now", she asked with concern as she held his hand.
"I am alright Leader", he replied immediately as he bent his head.
"Are you ready to take us to their hideout?", I asked him.
"Yes, Your Highness and I will fight alongside each side too, I want to pay them back for hurting us", he said and I could feel anger in his words.
Seo Hwa rushed to the bush beside the trees and vomited some things from her mouth. I rushed to her but she told me not to come close.
"I am alright, it's just the food I took", she said immediately.
I didn't remember her eating anything since but I guessed she ate something and that good. She joined us after some minutes.
"no, you will just take us to their hideouts, and we will take it from them, our mission is to rescue everyone, your mission is to just show us the way to them", I cut him in.
"They are strong your Highness and they use a poison powder to weaken their enemies in battle", he added.
"is that what they use on you", I asked gently.
"yes, they didn't give us a chance to fight and poison us immediately, they spread it into their air", he explained more.
"I know about the poison, it's one of the Kim family's mischievous ways, we must wear two tight masks to avoid taking in the poison", Kang Yun speaks from behind. He has been standing there for a minute now.
"We have a strength poison too, we can take that whenever we feel weak", Seo Hwa added.
"Don't worry, we will come home in victory", Seo Hwa promised him.
Kang Yun looked at Seo Hwa in a strange way
When she talked about us taking the strength poison.
"We should go now, you will take him back after he shows us the way", Seo Hwa said facing the other soldiers.
"Ok leader, your wish is our command", they said together as they bowed their head to her.
We begin the mission as we wear our masks and head towards the soldier's barracks, Seo Hwa leads the way and I walk behind us as Kang Yun stays next to Seo Hwa I can hear them speak but I don't know what they are discussing.
"It must be about the mission, I am too sensitive this day," I thought.
"you said we should take the strength portion, and you know you must be careful of anything you take in", Kang Yun said silently to Seo Hwa to avoid the prince hearing.
I didn't think about the possibility of the portion harming me. I guessed it because I am new to this.
"thank you for that, I nearly forgot I was pregnant", she answered him back.
"be careful, so he won't find out about your mistakes", Kang Yun said to her again.
"OK", she answered back as she made another bend and we could see the enemies hiding behind the trees, unknowingly to them, we were behind them now.
"the hideout is there", the wounded soldier pointed at the hut far in the bush, they settled at the end of the hut be careful", he said.
We looked at each other as the mission before us lies in a great difficult place than we imagined.
"take him back now, we will devise another plan to use now", Seo Hwa commands them.
"OK, master", they said and faced the opposite side as they returned to the village.
"what should we do now", I asked them.
"I will fight the soldiers hiding in the bush, you and Seo Hwa can enter the hideout to rescue the soldiers", I suggest.
"No, we will stay together, we will take the soldiers out together silently and enter their hideout silently before they know it", Seo Hwa speaks.
"I think that's the best move, to stay together", Kang Yun affirms Seo Hwa's plan.
We wear our double masks and take out our small knives. We sneak to the soldiers lying in ambush and slaughter them one after the other. We are so skilled that even the next soldiers lying down didn't know we were there.
Kang Yun flew in the air like a feather as he took out the soldiers hiding in the trees. He moved from tree to tree before they could know what hit them, we killed every soldier by the bushes. Now we are faced with the hideout only.
"Are you tired", Kang Yun asked Seo Hwa as she was breathing very fast.
"I am okay, it's because I have not done this in a long time", she answered him.
"A person standing at three paces from here can hear you breathing, they can hear spot you before you attack them now", Kang Yun said to him
"Should we wait for you", I asked her
"No we should proceed now, I am fine", she answered back.
"Let's go", I command Kang Yun.
We entered through the hut and saw two enemies standing and backing the hut, we took them out immediately.
Some enemies in the second hut asked them a question but no one answered, we entered the huts and killed everyone inside until a boy saw us.
He stood there among the bush looking at us
"should we take him out", Kang Yun asked.
"He is just a boy", Seo Hwa replied.
"But he looks like one of them, he might raise an alarm", Kang Yun said again.
I ran to him and made him unconscious by hitting the back of his head and he fell.
We move into the next hut and kill every enemy inside until the boy lying down raises an alarm after releasing the paralytic portion into the air.
"I told you the boy is one of them", Kang Yun said as he covered his nose. We did the same and a few soldiers gathered around us.
The portion started working and Seo Hwa first fell on her knees, we took out the strength portion and drank all of it instantly before they could attack us and we killed them all.
"They are just bandits and not soldiers, this is not the men that attacked our people", Kang Yun managed to say.
Before I could reply to him an arrow flew past and I heard a lot of groans from behind, it hit Seo Hwa on her shoulder. She fell to the ground.
I rushed to her and this time, 12 assassins dressed in black faced us, stretching their sword to kill us.
Kang Yun managed to take one out but he was cut on his leg. This makes him weak the paralytic portion becomes more effective. He fell to the ground too.
"Kill them all", A voice ordered them and they jumped at us ferociously.
