After Quitting Being Your Rival (2)

(3rd person pov)

The sight of Lisa so easily subduing the multitude of assassins in the capital left a strong impression on many.

Of course, Lisa couldn’t see the reaction, because she was surrounded by her family who had just run to her.

“Are you hurt anywhere? What the hell is this with these horrendous things!”

“What is this, Lisa?! You can be rest assured now. Because we are here.”

Sunmi, Sandara, and Jinyong screamed as they hugged Lisa incessantly.

“You must have been savagely cutting down on the ugliness.”

Jimin, unable to intervene, took a step back and said cheerfully. Even so, he was smiling as if he was genuinely happy for Lisa.

“They can be arrested without a single sword by the knights.”

He cleverly mobilized the knights to arrest every assassin.

Like a competent lieutenant, he quickly knew what he was doing.

“One of these will open up about who’s behind it.”

And shortly thereafter, someone arrived. It was Taehyung.

Taehyung also did not come with Bogum’s party.

As soon as he heard that Lisa had departed, he immediately followed her footsteps and rode on his horse alone.

“Lisa!”

Of course, it was all over when he arrived. The Knights of Kim had already captured the assassins and carried them away.

“Hah…”

Taehyung calmed his heart as he saw Lisa smiling in the arms of her family safely.

And he decided not to talk about the fact that he was so worried that his whole body was burning since he heard that she had followed a suspicious girl.

“It’s a big deal.”

But he mumbled quietly to himself.

“If I don’t have her right in front of my eyes, even for a moment, I’m going to go crazy…”

Jimin approached him, who had just arrived in the capital and had his gaze fixed on Lisa.

“Taehyung, you have returned safely.”

Come to think of it, no one talked to Taehyung.

From his family to the crowd, they had lost interest in Taehyung’s arrival, and were preoccupied with Lisa, who had just knocked out over 50 assassins in an instant.

“When I look back, there is something I really want to ask.”

Jimin asked cautiously.

“Do you know what my favorite food is?”

“…Salad?”

“Ah, seeing that you don’t know, you are sane. Sorry. I asked this question because I wanted to make sure that you weren’t completely crazy and fell for  my sister.”

Jimin, too, seemed more curious about his mental state rather than interested in Taehyung’s return.

“For reference, I like seafood. Especially crustaceans.”

And on that day, the capital’s gambling house was completely turned upside down.

Lisa’s dividend, which was almost nonexistent in the upcoming friendly match between Taehyung and her, began to rise.
