**Chapter 417: The Loafer Infiltrates (2)**

Uil looked at Wei Yanho with bewildered eyes.

Why is he asking that?

Could it be…?

No, it can’t be.

Wei Yanho has no reason to be kind to him. According to the rules of the martial world, Wei Yanho could kill him without Uil being able to protest.

But, instead of killing him, he wants to rescue the hostages?

That’s not kindness, it’s naivety.

Wei Yanho, according to Uil, was someone very calculating. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have earned so much money in such a short time since his reappearance.

Why is he saying that?

«Lord?»

«Lord nothing, stop wasting time and tell me what you want to say.»

Wei Yanho waved his hand:

«Where are the hostages?»

«……»

«Won’t you answer?»

«Lord.»

Uil wanted to organize her thoughts:

«Why do you want to help me?»

«I didn’t ask that.»

«I can’t say it without knowing that.»

«Why?»

«If I say where the hostages are, I will betray my clan. Then, the lives of the hostages will be in danger. I can’t say it without being sure.»

Wei Yanho rubbed the back of his neck.

The person in front of him wasn’t someone who checked a bridge before crossing it, but someone who would build a new bridge if there was a bridge.

«I just want to do it.»

«Lord.»

«Things don’t always have a logical reason. Simply our situations coincide, let’s say…»

Wei Yanho grimaced:

«I’m annoyed and irritated. There are no more reasons. If that doesn’t convince you, there’s no choice but to hand you over to the Tang family.»

«……»

Uil bit her lip.

Can I trust him?

«…Can I ask you one last question?»

«Yes, yes, ask me whatever you want. I’ll answer you until the sun comes up.»

As if he had already given up on sleeping, Wei Yanho rolled around on the bed.

«I won’t ask why you want to help me.»

«I already told you, I didn’t ask that. How are you listening to the answers?»

«Lord.»

Wei Yanho looked at the ceiling:

‘Aish, there’s no one normal.’

He thought that perhaps the world is a place where abnormal people live normally. Everyone seems abnormal, but somehow they function.

«Why did you forgive me?»

«Huh?»

«I still don’t understand. You have no reason to forgive me. If you feel uncomfortable killing me, why not hand me over to the Tang family?»

«True.»

«Then why did you forgive me?»

«Does that matter?»

«Yes, it’s important to me.»

Uil looked at Wei Yanho with firm eyes.

It might be insignificant. But it was the most important thing for Uil. To reveal the location of the hostages, she must reveal that she is a spy for the Jegal family. Her brother was in the Jegal family.

If Wei Yanho isn’t a fool, he’ll guess everything upon knowing the location of the hostages. And Wei Yanho wasn’t a fool.

By revealing the location of the hostages, Uil will reveal everything. How can she do it without being sure of the other?

«It’s not that I have a great reason.»

Wei Yanho scratched his head:

«It may not be important to you, but it’s important to me. I know, Lord. It is absurd that you are asked that question. I am so sorry. But understand my situation. It’s better that I commit suicide before my brother suffers.»

Uil knelt down and bowed.

«Kgh…»

Wei Yanho recoiled.

Wei Yanho had never been treated with respect. Others treated him with disdain. Even after reaching that level of martial skill, it didn’t change.

Those who disliked Wei Yanho also treated him that way.

They didn’t like him because he was unpredictable and powerful, not because they treated him with respect as they do now.

Although some bowed before him, they were all…

Wei Yanho sighed and said:

«I feel uncomfortable killing women.»

«…Huh?»

«Don’t misunderstand me. I’m not saying that men can die and women can’t in the martial world. I have no mercy on my enemies. But… I feel uncomfortable if I don’t consider them enemies.»

«…»

«It’s not my fault. It’s an education problem. People learn from their environment, and parents have the greatest influence.»

«R…right.»

«My father was always scolded, mistreated, and kicked by my mother, what could a child learn? If they had left me with my master since I was little, I would be a man now. But unfortunately, I was born into the Wei Family of Guangdong, and that’s why I’m afraid of women. Even my brother is afraid of women. So it’s not my fault.»

Uil looked at Wei Yanho without being able to say anything.

Wei Yanho must know that she is a woman. Since he can detect her presence, he must have noticed her physical characteristics.

But, he won’t kill her because she’s a woman.

What kind of romantic story is this? In the martial world, where knives and poison abound, what importance does gender have?

«Of course, if you had attacked me, I would be thinking about how to get rid of your corpse. But since you calmly came down… yes, why did you come down?»

«Did I do something wrong?»

«If we analyze it?»

«S…sorry.»

She didn’t know why, but Uil apologized first.

«Does it make sense?»

«Huh?»

Wei Yanho looked at Uil and said:

«Sorry, but I’m busy…»

Wei Yanho trailed off.

Uil couldn’t speak either and lowered her gaze. An awkward silence filled the air.

«Khm! I’m not busy, but I have a lot of things to do. I don’t want to discuss this anymore, so let’s decide quickly.»

Wei Yanho summarized the situation:

«Either we go together to rescue your brother, or you leave. I don’t care what happens to you. I don’t want to get involved, so I’ll scream if you don’t decide.»

Wei Yanho covered his chest with his hands and squirmed.

Seeing that flirtatious pose, Uil clenched her fist involuntarily.

«What will you do?»

Uil looked at Wei Yanho.

Can I trust him?

Wei Yanho was unpredictable. The information they had collected was useless. Not even Sinsugisa could judge him based solely on his behavior.

Then, she must trust her heart.

Can I trust him?

«…I don’t know.»

Uil couldn’t be sure until the end.

«That’s okay. Leave.»

«But…»

Uil looked at Wei Yanho and said:

«You’re right. I can’t do anything now that I’m here. Even if I die completing my mission, I don’t think they’ll take care of my brother. He will have the same fate.»

Uil grabbed her thigh.

Perhaps this is the most important moment of her life.

«Help me, Lord.»

Wei Yanho looked at Uil with a serious expression:

«If you rescue my brother, I’ll tell you everything I know. And I will serve you all my life.»

«I don’t need that.»

«Yesterday, you asked me to bring you food.»

«…I guess I do need that.»

Wei Yanho was very practical.

A servant?

Using her stealth skills to follow Wei Yanho and run errands at the speed of light?

‘That’s a dream!’

Wei Yanho regained his energy. He could live comfortably in exchange for a little work, who would refuse that? Wei Yanho, who found unexpected motivation, jumped up.

«Well, okay. Let’s stretch a bit. Where is he?»

Uil hesitated before speaking:

«…Lord.»

«Aish! Stop calling me Lord!»

Uil bit her lip. Although she had made a decision, acting on it was different.

Uil hesitated and reached out to grab her mask.

«Huh?»

Then, she slowly took off the mask and left it to her side. Her long hair, which was under the mask, fell over her shoulders.

Wei Yanho inhaled:

«Why are you taking off your mask?»

«Showing my face means I will reveal everything. I won’t hesitate anymore.»

Uil knelt down again and said:

«Help me, Lord. Please.»

«Okay.»

Wei Yanho got up and pulled up his pants:

«I don’t want to waste time, tell me where he is.»

Uil raised her head and looked at Wei Yanho:

«I come from the Jegal Family.»

«Huh?»

Wei Yanho tilted his head:

«Jegal Family?»

«Yes. Didn’t you know?»

«No.»

«……»

«……»

What is true and what is false in this person?

Before Uil became confused, Wei Yanho smiled and said:

«Well, it doesn’t matter. I thought you were from the Righteous Heavenly Alliance.»

«Ah…»

«Well…»

Wei Yanho turned his neck:

«Will I do what I want?»

The loafer, full of energy after resting, began to cause trouble.
