Unlike the opulent exterior of the palace, the Heavenly Demon’s personal quarters were refined. However, that didn’t mean they were simple or plain. The Thousand Mountains Palace was a culmination of his aesthetic sense.

However, if Suyeon became a Solar Person, he would need the help of a Lunar Person, and the Heavenly Demon was already concerned about which Lunar Person would become Suyeon’s partner.

Perhaps it was due to Sa Chwiheon’s life, a life where he didn’t need to be concerned with others’ opinions.

Furthermore, with his hasty and straightforward nature, he preferred asking directly rather than trying to read between the lines, and he was a man of action, not contemplation.
