Passion Translation "Fanfictions"

Vol 3 - Chapter 14: Protect

Jeong Taeui has never seen anyone call out Ilay's full name. The names that are often assigned to this maniac must be 'Riegrow' or 'Rick'. Of course, his full name is no secret, but perhaps because the names that appeared after became better known, no one calls him IIay now. And even the more someone who knew and knew him well, the more they didn't dare to call that name.

But thinking about it, Jeong Taeui felt that it was okay to call him "Ilay".

However, except for himself, Taeui has never heard the name Ilay from anyone else's mouth. No, actually there was one time, that was on the first day Ilay was appointed as an officer of the Asia branch, he was called by the governor by his full name "Ilay Riegrow" during the inauguration ceremony in Governor's Office. But that was also the only time ever.

Jeong Taeui bent down to look at the South American-looking man.

This man didn't know Ilay. He must have judged based on his personal characteristics, but he had certainly never met Ilay in person before.

"Dare to attack someone you don't know and who has no grudge against you with such a sharp knife is off-limits, what if the person he met today is an innocent person."

Jeong Taeui clicked his tongue and muttered. His voice was so low that he thought Ilay wouldn't hear it because he was standing quite far away, but Ilay turned around and asked:

"Are you talking about me?"

...... Ears are like dogs. < +1 Nickname >

"Do you think anyone else besides you in the world could be stabbed to death by a stranger without any grudge?"

Jeong Taeui muttered bitterly. Ilay just smiled faintly. And then he whispered incomprehensibly in a vague tone.

"Let's see, there must still be so many people.... But after all, it is rare for anyone to use such a blatant and childish attack. What did this groundhead think when he chose such a stupid method?"

Jeong Taeui turned his suspicious eyes to Ilay, who spoke calmly and casually, as if things like this could be resolved quickly in the blink of an eye.

"Tell me, if you use such a stupid attack, is there any way to succeed?"

"There are certainly many ways, but at this point..."

"At this point...."

Jeong Taeui seriously thought for a moment about the importance of choosing the 'time' in taking revenge.

"Maybe you shouldn't attack an enemy in the winter, but you should target him in the summer. This will make it easier to leave wounds on the opponent's body, and also reduce the danger to yourself," Jeong Taeui said.

"Everywhere became chaotic as the day to decide the governor's position approached. Last night there was a bean-brained guy who called me in the middle of the night just to bribe me with money."

If anyone had heard what IIay had said now, he would have thought he was a gentleman with no material or honor. Damn you diamond spoon thing!

Jeong Taeui remained focused on listening to IIay even though his thoughts were filled with sprawling thoughts. It seemed that his pensive face was a little bewildered. Ilay took a few steps ahead, but then he stopped because he didn't hear Taeui's footsteps following him, then turned to tilt his head to look directly at Taeui's lifeless face now.

"What's with that expression?"

"The closer we get to deciding the vacant governorship, the more uproar. Didn't you say that all of this happened because of fighting for that seat?"
