Chapter 284 – {IF Abduction: Seo Mun-Hyeon’s Negation}
{IF Gaiden: Seo Mun-hyeon’s infidelity}
There was a shame in the foreword.
It was the existence of Seo Mun-cheon, the eldest son.
Born as the eldest son of Seomun Ganghyeok, the head of the Seomun family, he is an incompetent person who has not awakened to any ability.
“I don’t know why the head of household hasn’t sent that guy yet.”
“You’ll get the ability soon? You’re good at telling ridiculous lies to stay attached.”
Even among the warriors of the Seomun family, there were those who secretly mocked Seomuncheon. However, they did not openly look at Seomuncheon.
Among Seomuncheon’s younger siblings, Seomunhyeon didn’t care even if he cursed at him.
He showed the appearance of a kind and kind superior to the soldiers of the Seomun family, but in reality, everyone did not know that he treated Seomunhyeon as a servant of the family.
The reason why the warriors of the Seomun family couldn’t openly disrespect Seomun Cheon was because of his youngest daughter, Seomun Min-hye.
The warriors of the Seomun family couldn’t openly insult Seomun Cheon because of her being fiercely angry with those who insulted him while completely believing the words of her incompetent older brother.
Even so, it was not at the level of giving Seomuncheon equal treatment with Seomunhyeon and Seomunminhye because of Seomunminhye’s notice, and it was just that he did not openly ignore him in front of him.
Seomun Min-hye, who was not even her successor, had a weak voice within the Seomun family, no matter how direct, and Seomun Min-hye was a young girl, only 11 years old at most.
Neither the head of her family nor her successor, she had no authority to issue more than a certain order to the warriors of the Preamble family, and she did not have the power to enforce them.
“Huh, true.”
“What is this?”
The warriors of the Seomun family laughed at the text messages sent to their phones all at once. Saying that there was an important announcement, all the warriors of the Seomun family were ordered to gather in the yard of the Seomun family.
Why can’t everyone gather in the auditorium where up to 1,000 warriors from the Seomun family can gather at once?
“What kind of kid’s joke is this?”
“It’s a real kid’s joke.”
“But I can’t not go.”
It wasn’t because of Minhye Seo’s orders. Seomun Min-hye sent her text message saying that she would give wild ginseng, her elixir, to those who came here and beat her bet, and she sent a picture of wild ginseng.
“You might get the elixir, but you can’t miss it.”
“It’s wild ginseng. It’s a good elixir.”
For the warriors, the elixir was a valuable treasure. It was no different that the elixir was rare even in the huge family of the Seomun family.
Of course, even if it was rare, there were elixirs that would take care of the direct descendants of the Seomun family, and low-grade elixirs were provided to the warriors of the Seomun family, so there were no people who didn’t even know the taste of the elixir.
However, only low-quality elixirs that were as big as wild ginseng could be tasted.
“This is wild ginseng that is above grade level at first glance.”
With Seomun Min-hye’s order combined with the thought that they might be able to obtain wild ginseng, the warriors of the Seomun family quickly gathered at their seats.
And the warriors of the Seomun family tried not to frown as they watched Seomun Cheon, the woman of Minhye Seomun, standing.
‘Why is that incompetent guy here?’
She didn’t like that the incompetent Xu Wenchen was in this position, but she endured it because she was in front of Xu Wen Minhye. If she did something that she openly ignored, she could be bothered by being caught by the preface, Min-hye.
“Minhye, why did you suddenly call me?”
Then, a boy with blue hair came inside. The handsome boy with a soft smile was very similar to Seomuncheon except for the hair color.
It was Seomunhyeon, the second son of the Seomun family and considered the next successor.
He only spoke to Minhye Seomun as if he couldn’t even see Seomuncheon.
“Little brother.”
Seomun Min-hye called Seo Mun-hyeon her little brother. Seo Moon-hyeon looked at Min-hye Seo as if he was saddened by those words.
“Minhye, just call me oppa.”
There was no one among the warriors of the Seomun family who did not know the meaning of the words.
Denying the existence of Seo Wencheon, he said that he was the only brother.
It was that he did not consider Seomun Cheon as his older brother or his brother, and could not acknowledge his existence itself. However, Seo Moon Min-hye smiled and refused.
“Then, isn’t it strange to put only the eldest brother in front? It’s confusing if the eldest brother is just called oppa.”
* * *
At the words of Seo Mun-Hye, Seo Mun-Hyun’s life moved toward me for a moment.
For him, it was something she didn’t like that her precious trophy, her sister Seomun Min-hye, followed me rather than him.
Thinking I was about to be kicked out, I instinctively felt that I didn’t have to get my hands dirty, so I didn’t touch it, but if the right opportunity presented itself, I’d gladly accept the opportunity to hurt, if not kill, with great pleasure.
‘I’ll have to step in at this point.’
I didn’t even have to drag it out too long. I thought so and said to Seo Moon-hyeon.
“Hey, Seo Moon-hyun.”
I didn’t call him by his first name, I called him by his last name. I knew better than Seo Mun-hyeon that Seo Moon-hyeon didn’t really love anyone, he only loved himself.
And when I called his name, Seo Mun-hyeon turned to me and crumpled his face for a moment.
The fact that he had an older brother was something he didn’t like.
Because he feels that he is a stain on himself, who should be the perfect successor to the Seomun family.
That’s why Seo Mun-hyeon wanted me to be kicked out of the family.
That way, he was able to neatly package himself as the successor.
‘Either I ran away on my own, or my family couldn’t handle it and kicked me out because I was too bad.
And if it wasn’t a threat, they would deny their existence and treat them as if they didn’t exist…
‘If only I had been a Magical Awakener.’
If I had not been incompetent, but had been a Magical Awakener despite my lack of skills, Seo Moon-hyeon would have definitely tried to kill me.
And after killing him, he would pretend to have killed the villain by conspiring with him, and he would be immersed in his own appearance of defeating the villain.
‘While defending the real villains.’
Kang Mi-hyun, the real villain, the leader of the thieves and the true heroine of the original work. For that year, he was absorbed in beautifying while doing all sorts of forced washing, and even to the victims who were hurt by Kang Mi-hyun, he was accused of being a villain, saying that he could not understand the sad circumstances of Mi-hyun Kang.
“Why?”
Seo Moon-hyun never called me hyung until the end. For him, I was nothing more than an obstacle that must be removed.
Preface Min-hye seemed to feel that as well, so she glared at Seo Mun-hyeon, but she didn’t step forward because she knew I was going to step out.
“Should I call you brother?”
On the contrary, I asked Seo Moon-hyeon to correct it with a relaxed smile.
“?!”
Seo Moon-hyun was a little embarrassed. It was because I never once asked him to call me brother, and I avoided him whenever possible.
‘There’s no reason to avoid it anymore.’
Before that, she could be killed by Seo Moon-hyeon, so she had to lower her body and wait for her to gain strength. But now that he had the strength, there was no reason to fear him.
Because Seo Moon-hyun could never kill me.
“What are you talking about?”
“You’re incompetent, so tell the young master to call you older brother?”
It was a small whisper, but it was all in my ears. Preface Minhye must have heard that too, and she glared at the warriors of the Preamble family, but they were confident.
It wasn’t that Seomun Min-hye didn’t care about her gaze, but she considered that she was right in her line of Seomun-hyeon, the successor of the Seomun family line higher than her.
‘Although I boarded the wrong boat.’
He would soon realize that Seomunhyeon was a rotten ship about to sink.
“Why don’t you call me brother?”
And I asked Seo Mun-hyeon to call me older brother again.
Seo Moon-hyeon crinkled his face at those words.
* * *
Seo Mun-hyeon was dumbfounded at the request of Seo Mun-cheon, who called himself his brother.
To call yourself, a perfect hero with no flaws, your older brother!
Even though he couldn’t call him older brother, Seo Moon-hyeon couldn’t immediately find a reason to rationalize it, so he was silent for a while.
His head turned quickly.
‘Yes, Seomuncheon is not my older brother! My brother died doing crazy things, and over there is a doppelganger impersonating his brother! It’s clear!’
After putting it together like that, Seo Mun-hyeon, who recognized it as the truth, drew his sword.
“Shut up, you monster! I’ll kill you right here!”
Pulling out his sword, Seo Mun-hyeon decided to kill Seo Moon-cheon, who dared to make an unreasonable request to call him older brother, the successor of the Seo-mun family and the apex of the next-generation hero who would become a perfect hero.
Seo Mun-hyeon, who even infused his sword with magical power, raised his murderous intent, and thrust his sword straight into Seo Mun-cheon’s heart without hesitation.
“Huh?”
Even the warriors of the Seomun family were a little taken aback by the sudden seriousness of the situation, but Seomunhyeon had no doubt that they would praise him for killing Seomuncheon sooner or later and praise him for being truly heroic.
Seomun Min-hye, who was tricked by that monster and did not follow her one and only brother, would also be a good sister who listens to her.
The moment Seomunhyeon’s sword was about to reach the heart of Seomuncheon, something invisible blocked it.
