The Destiny of the Undone
chapter 12

Jiwon went to see her father and explained everything. Of course Kyu Hyung can't keep quiet. This concerns the future of an oeradsban. He did not want any greedy people to rule this land. He just wants peace.

"Mother, I'm bringing Junkyu to you." Yunhyeong. His mother put on a worried face. Tae Hee just nodded and immediately ran towards Jisoo's room.

There he finds Jisoo and Jiwon who are already preparing to leave. Tae Hee hugs Jisoo before she leaves. Tae Hee is crying. She was worried about her husband and son as well as these two people. Their goals are different but the risks are the same.

"Don't worry about Junkyu. I'll take care of him. But promise me you'll both be okay." Tae Hee said before letting go of her two adopted children.

Yunhyeong and Kyu Hyung had already left for Gyeonggi. Jisoo and Jiwon followed and moved towards Gwangju.

Not much supplies they brought. There were only fruits and two bottles of drinking water. But of course they will not eat it because there is no time to stop. They must arrive at their destination as soon as possible because if they are a little late, maybe bad things will happen.

Gyeonggi was a little further from the village than from the village to Gwangju. So most likely Jisoo and Jiwon will arrive first. The two of them chose not to stop, continuing on until the sun rose.

"We need to hurry!" Said Jisoo who continued to spur his horse to maximum speed.

"Let's stop for a second, Sooya! At least for a drink!" Shouted Jiwon who was also trying to keep up with the speed of Jisoo's horse.

"No time, Jiwon-ah! We have to get there on time before it's too late!"

"Ck! This woman is stubborn!" Jiwon Mumbled.

Elsewhere, Yunhyeong and Kyu Hyung are also racing their horses. They stopped for a drink and then continued their long journey.

But suddenly Kyu Hyung stops and Yunhyrong forces his horse to stop as well. He was confused as to why his father had stopped suddenly.

"What's up, Abeoji?" Ask Yunhyeong.

"We have to take a shortcut! If we go the usual way, we'll get caught!" He said while checking around.

"They won't know us, Abeoji."

"Believe it or not, their eyes are everywhere. I know actually one of the villagers is a Gyeonggi royal spy."

"What?!"

"Then what should we do?"

"There will soon be a crossing. We take the leftmost route. We're gonna turn a little."

"Well, Abeoji!"

"You can lead, Yunhyeong-ah."

"No. Just you. I don't know the shortcut either."

"alright. We need to hurry!"

Kyu Hyung and Yunhyeong return to race their horses. Jisoo and Jiwon also continued to move without stopping. The atmosphere of the home is also not conducive. Everyone knows about this. Tae Hee continues to calm Junkyu who is crying from waking up and finds Yunhyeong and Jisoo not with her. Junghwan who panicked, now trying to be pacified by Chanwoo. The others sat on the terrace anxiously. Just making up prayers they can do right now.

"Muraz...." Said Junkyu who was still as much as he pleased.

"What's up, baby?" Tae Hee asks who got rid of Junkyu's hair that was splashed on her face.

"Are Appa and Eomma really coming back?"

"Of course, Junkyu-ya... They'll come back and see you. They love you and there's no way they're leaving you." Obviously Tae Hee gave understanding to Junkyu– even though she was not sure either.

"Eommoni, it's better to go back to sleep and take Junkyu to the room. Let us keep watch." Pinta Chanwoo's.

"What's wrong, Channie, I'll be on my guard, too."

"But look at Junkyu. She's tired. He'd better take a break." Chanwoo's still trying. He knew his mother was a bit stubborn. "Not to worry. They're gonna be fine. When they're done, they'll be back, won't they?"

"Hm.. Youre right. Well then I'll take Junkyu to bed. If you need me, wake Eommoni up it's okay."

"Well, Eommoni!"
