THE NOVEL'S EXTRA

C129. Funeral (3)

I opened my eyes to a white ceiling.

My mind felt hazy and my vision was foggy.

Was I dreaming? Or did I wake up from a dream?

The boundary between reality and dreams was ambiguous.

However, the smell of cigarette smoke on my body woke up me to the truth. The painful reality that I hoped wasn’t true flooded into my mind.

I couldn’t deny reality no matter how much I wanted to.

“Hng.”

Chae Nayun sniffled. Letting out a sigh, she looked outside the window. Perhaps because she let out her pent up feelings, the current of emotions that seemed to be eating away at her disappeared, leaving behind calmness.

“You’re up?”

At that moment, a soft voice rang out. Chae Nayun turned to the direction of the voice.

“...Master?”

Yoo Sihyuk’s calm eyes were looking down at her. Chae Nayun stared at him with widened eyes.

Yoo Sihyuk sighed.

“Haa.... You can come back to the mountain whenever you want. For now, take your time and rest.”

Yoo Sihyuk rarely let go of disciples he accepted. Chae Nayun and Chae Jinyoon were two of the few disciples he acknowledged.

“Ah....”

Unaccustomed to Yoo Sihyuk’s kindness, Chae Nayun only stared at him blankly.

“What, got a problem?”

“...No, not at all.”

Chae Nayun quickly shook her head.

“Good, then­—”

“Actually...”

Chae Nayun cut Yoo Sihyuk off and raised her upper body. Seeing the black mourning clothes she was wearing, she felt her heart throb, but she didn’t want to waste any more time lying around.

“Once the burial ends, I’ll go back up right away.”

She clenched her fists.

Strong determination and conviction rose up from her heart.

Yoo Sihyuk shook his head with a concerned expression.

“No, you shouldn’t push yourself...”

“I heard he was murdered.”

Chae Nayun clenched her teeth.

Her father didn’t explain much, only that an unknown assailant attacked Chae Jinyoon.

“...I was told so as well.”

Chae Jinyoon was one of Yoo Sihyuk’s beloved disciples. The chilling rage he felt was noticeable even by Chae Nayun.

“...Don’t think about taking the matter into your hands, Master.”

Chae Nayun looked down at her small and calloused hands.

Finally, she found something she had to do with her hands.

Furthermore, it was something only she had the right to accomplish.
