    Yoo EunLib was considered to be the ‘best of his time’. That was how great of a warrior he was.

    He showed remarkable skill at a young age. People said that he had managed to defeat his master less than a year after he began to learn the ways of the sword. The rumors were true.

    Because he came from a good family, his parents had wanted him to become a government official, but because of his outstanding skills as a swordsman, they had no choice but to watch as their son walked the path of a warrior. It was a bit of a disappointment for his parents, but they managed to see their son excel as a warrior and make a name for himself before they passed away, so they were still quite blessed.

    At the age of seventeen, Yoo EunLib passed the exam to become a military officer. Not long after he began his military post, he brought honor to his family in a war. During times of peace, he trained the other soldiers. Currently, he was one of the guards that protected the king as well as one of the instructors for the new recruits.

    Even though ten men would have had a hard time handling all of his duties, EunLib knew his calling was to be a soldier, so he had no complaints. If there was one thing he did want, it was to exchange swords with the other great warriors of the world. But that was it.

    Although his parents had now passed away, his family was a prestigious family that went back several generations. Once he found a suitable man from a good family to marry his sister, a huge burden would be lifted off his shoulders.

    「Please come home early today.」

    He had received a message from home while he was in the training grounds, so he was hurriedly walking back home.

    He had never received that kind of message before, so he was worried that something had happened.

    ‘Just what could have happened?’

    ‘Should I take a few months off…’

    A few weeks ago, as he was leaving his house, his wife had asked him, ‘Why are you always so busy?’

    She was probably lonely.

    Her husband was always running around outside, so she must have been very disappointed even if she didn’t show it.

    It might also be his fault that they hadn’t conceived a child yet.

    As he mulled over his thoughts, he finally exited the main street of the capital and began to head for the suburbs. He suddenly stopped in his tracks.

    It wasn’t because he had realized that he’d forgotten something back at the training grounds. It wasn’t because he had forgotten to do something either.

    He stopped because a few men were blocking his way.

    “Do you have business with me?”

    Yoo EunLib looked at the men who were in his way.

    The men were holding swords and axes in their hands.

    These men were holding these weapons in the streets in the middle of the day.

    Yoo EunLib smiled bitterly.

    This was because he didn’t have his sword with him.

    He didn’t always have his sword on his waist.

    Especially not in the middle of the day in broad daylight. Yoo EunLib believed that only thugs walked around in the daytime with their swords on their hips.

    So he didn’t have his sword with him now.

    “Haa…”

    EunLib lightly clenched his fist.

    His master had always told him that the basis of martial arts was the fist. However, being exceptionally skilled with the sword, if EunLib had a weakness, it would be fighting with his fist.

    Fighting with his bare hands didn’t even add up to half his skills with the sword. Because of that, everyone around him had always said, ‘If you didn’t have your sword, you’d be dead by now.’

    Therefore, he was currently in a tough situation.

    The blade of a sword struck down right in front of his eyes. EunLib stepped back and fell down.

    He quickly stood up and held out his fists.

    If these men were novices, EunLib would have been able to overpower them without his sword. However, they seemed to be the type of men who did this often.

    Their skills were exceptionally good.

    If he was unlucky, he might even get hurt. But he needed to return home, so he didn’t have that luxury.

    “What the?!”

    EunLib stumbled.

    He had managed to avoid the flying axe that was headed straight for his head, but a sword had suddenly been thrust to his side. As he dodged it, EunLib became disoriented and lost his balance.

    As EunLib fell, a man drew back his axe, aiming for EunLib’s chest.

    As he watched the axe come towards him, EunLib thought, ‘If I don’t get home in time, I’ll get in big trouble.’

    The man’s voice was low and grave.

    “If it’s alright with you, my house is nearby. Why don’t we go to my home and treat your wound?”

    The man didn’t seem willing, but EunLib completely ignored him and began to walk.

    “Here, once we turn here, we’ll be almost there. It’s not that far. The sun will set soon, so you should stay for dinner as well.”

    Seeing how EunLib wasn’t willing to let him leave right away, the man sighed as he was dragged by the hand.

    He had never expected to be dragged away like this when he decided to help a passerby who had found some trouble.

    ‘Well, I’ll just get my wound treated…’

    Dinner sounded too intimidating. He would only get his wounds treated and leave. Either way, he needed to get it treated, so it didn’t matter where he did it.

    Not noticing what was going on, EunLib stood between the two, his booming laughter echoing through the yard. When he introduced SeoYoon to her, EunSeo didn’t say anything.

    Before she could ask why this man was entering her home with her brother, her heart began to race inside her chest.

    As he left the mountain that night, her face kept popping into his head.

    Still, he knew that he shouldn’t have a woman dwell in his heart at this time. Therefore, he decided to forget her.

    He wasn’t in any position to be courting a woman right now.

    Even as he told this to himself over and over again, he couldn’t help but remember her face whenever he went to sleep at night.
