The day began to change night, slowly the sun changed into moon. Some roads started to be deserted as all were walking on the main road. But it did not make Hagi feel afraid, in contrast to Aunt Ma who had since embraced his arm.
After speaking at length with Young Ae's mistress, Aunt Ma finally obtained a medicine that could make the wounds on Hagi's face disappear even though it might take a little longer. Hagi who initially thought negatively about the brothel that belonged to Aunt Ma's best friend changed her mind when her so beautiful and friendly owner was willing to happily give her medicine.
Not to mention the giseng that was there all treated Hagi kindly, when aunt Ma said that Hagi was his adopted son.
"Since when has eomma been friends with Lady Young ae?" Hagi tried to melt the gripping atmosphere that Aunt Ma felt. Aunt Ma still looked to her right and left and then looked at Hagi.
"We knew each other since childhood, but Young ae was lucky to be liked by a minister from the Noron side from childhood. Be him as he is now." Hagi nodded in understanding.
Several times Hagi seemed to hold back his laughter every time there was a sound that made Aunt Ma afraid, whereas yesterday the time on the journey from Jeju to Hanyang Aunt Ma was not this scared.
"What's the eomma that scared?" Curious Hagi started asking.
"In Hanyang many people are starving because of the higher taxes, if they see someone from the upper middle class without an escort they can recklessly rob us. What else we just got out of Madam Young ae's brothel, people must think we're from the middle class." Hagi smiled then nodded in understanding.
"Eomma take it easy, I'll take care of the eomma. Eomma can't forget that I'm going to be Park's bodyguard?" Aunt Ma seemed to think and then started to sigh a little calmly.
"Ah, eomma forgot. But we'd better go home now you're gone too long." Hagi nodded obediently and remained silent as aunt Ma started to pull her hand and speed up their steps.
But the uproar in front made Aunt Ma instantly pull Hagi into hiding.
"What's eomma?" Aunt Ma looked at Hagi anxiously then pointed at someone ahead.
Hagi's gaze was immediately fixed on someone who was now being guarded by some of his personal guards, some were already lying on the ground because they were attacked by 3 people who used black veils.
"Eomma knew that guy?" Hagi asked as Ma's aunt grew more anxious when again someone was uprooted by the black veiled people.
"Eomma had seen the man who was being guarded by his bodyguard at the residence of Minister Kim, he seemed to be an important person. We can't just shut up, that guy's in danger." Hagi nodded then looked back to the front, seeing from their sword playing techniques, these people were definitely not ordinary people, They had abilities.
"Eomma put it this way, eomma's coming home now asking people for help at the Park minister's residence. I'm here to do everything I can to help them." Aunt Ma nodded in disapproval.
"Anni, this is too dangerous. We go home now and ask for help." Hagi slashed his breath slowly.
"If I don't help him now, that person could die eomma. Besides I'm not a weak yeoja eomma remind." Aunt Ma seemed hesitant but looked back at the person in front of her.
"Well eomma go, eomma will ask for help to come as soon as possible." Aunt Ma immediately ran away from Hagi. Then Hagi started to advance when all the guards had fallen leaving Namja who now looked scared unable to fight back.
"Yes!!! Is that the attitude of a sword fighter? To corner someone who obviously can't fight." Hagi's words successfully made the three black veiled people turn to him, Hagi already held the sword of one of the fallen guards and stood before the namja.
Although Hagi did not know whether or not his hands could move freely, he should at least try to help the person in front of him.
Without the cue Hagi began to attack first, as expected these three people did have the ability to play swords, but when compared to Hagi, the people before him were nothing. It was proven that the three appeared to be cornered when Hagi managed to injure their hands and feet.
"You'd better leave before I kill you." Without much thought his three instantly turned around and left just like that. For a moment Hagi grimaced softly as blood flowed through the sword he was wearing, as if yesterday's wounds that had not dried were opened again.
Hagi slowly approached the person who still looked frightened and walked backwards as Hagi approached.
"Don't be afraid, I helped you, sir. I'm a waitress from the Park residence sir." The namja began to breathe a sigh of relief and then nodded in understanding.
"really? Thank goodness then. But your hands are hurt are you okay?" The namja looked at Hagi's still bleeding hand anxiously.
"I'm fine, sir. If I may know where you're going now?"
"I was on my way to the residence of Minister Kim, not expecting to be attacked in the middle of a road like this." Hagi nodded in understanding then looked at the guards who were still lying on the ground.
"We can't wait for help here for too long, I'd better take you to Kim's current residence. I was afraid that the people had come again with more numbers, after all the guards only fainted, no one was seriously injured." Namja was understanding. Then looked at Hagi watching.
"All right, we're leaving now." Hagi started walking first followed by the name earlier.
Several times Hagi stared left and right and then looked behind him, making sure no one was following them.
"Chogi, may I ask you something?" The namja asked making Hagi pause for a while then nodded slowly.
"Yes please sir."
"Where did you learn to play the sword? You can even defeat those who attack my bodyguards easily. They are all my best people. But I could see your swordplay was far above my guards" Hagi seemed to think but started to walk again more slowly now.
"I learned from my father master, not to mention I also have some teachers in the field of swords." The namja frowned.
"You said you're a waitress for Secretary Park, right? But can you have some teachers playing the sword?" Hagi looked confusedly smiling.
"That's because I was a traveling merchant with my father's master, so I have a teacher in some area that I visited." Hagi sighed softly when he found out he was lying, but there was no way he could tell the truth.
"What's your name?" Hagi turned back around then bowed deeply.
"My name is Hagi sir." The namja nodded slowly.
"Sorry if your own sassy what's your name?" For a moment, he seemed nervous and confused.
"My name. My name hmmm you can just call my marg. Lee call me Mr. Lee." Hagi raised his Eyebrow but he seemed to be unconcerned and then just nodded in understanding.
After a short conversation, Hagi and Mr. Lee finally reached the residence of Minister Kim, Hagi just drove up to the gate and he had to go back to the place. Eommanya must have been anxious if she wasn't there.
"Sir Lee sorry I can only get here to drop you off." The namja nodded then looked at the slightly dried up blood on Hagi's hand.
"Yes, once again thank you for saving my life, I'll send you a gift through Secretary Park. You go home and treat your wounds, you can take the sword just in case." Hagi nodded then master Lee walked into the house. When the gate was about to close, Hagi held back the door and looked at the waiter who was staring at him asking.
"May I ask you something ajjusi?"
"Yes please."
"Is Mr Kim Kyuhyun well?" For a moment the namja frowned suspiciously.
"Who are you?why do you want to know?"
"Uncle forgot me? I came with Ma's aunt and uncle last night." The uncle immediately nodded when he remembered who Hagi was.
"Ah yes I remember, you are the one who brought the news about master Kim Kyuhyun right? From the waitress of Ms Park's family?" Hagi smiled then nodded small.
"Ah he is still sick, but it is better now, the healer said the first aid given was very helpful to Mr. Kim Kyuhyun." Hagi breathed a sigh of relief. Somehow he always remembered the name he helped.
"Thank God, then I'm leaving now Uncle." Hagi just left without waiting for the continuation of the words from the servant. Hagi had already guessed what the uncle was going to say, seeing Hagi's hand that was still bleeding. But he had to leave right now, he couldn't possibly make anyone else worry about him.
"It's because of the beard and the mustache that I don't know that person." Hagi tried to guess what kind of face the person had if without a beard and mustache, while Hagi gasped when he got a picture of who he had just helped if that person was in the future.
"Guabe!!! I deserve to know him. But he was so different in the past." Hagi shook his head in disbelief as he recalled the comparison of Mr. Lee's nature in the future and in the past. Once again Hagi meets a person similar to someone he knows in the future.
Hagi's guess turned out to be true, some people are now checking the guards of Mr. Lee, there is also officer Park jung so. Aunt Ma immediately ran towards Hagi then stared worriedly at Hagi's bloodied hands.
"You okay? Why are your hands bleeding? Are you hurt?" Hagi smiled then hugged my dear aunt Ma.
"I'm fine eomma, it's just yesterday's wound that's back open." Aunt Ma seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, she was already anxious once Hagi was not found earlier.
Jung So yelled quite loudly after Park's family bodyguard whispered something to Jung so. With a little running Jung so approached towards Hagi.
"I heard you helped the man these people were protecting from Aunt Ma, now where is that man?" Jung So looks panicked when asking, because Hagi did come alone sari end of the road earlier.
"What do you mean, Mr Lee?" Jung Soo frowned confusedly but then she looked nervous.
"Y, ye. Where is he now?"
"I was afraid to wait too long here, so I decided to take him to Kim's house." Jung So breathed a sigh of relief, like taking off a heavy weight on his shoulder.
"good. You made the right decision. You better get home here let me take care of that." Jung Soo again approached the guards and also some soldiers from the government who came to follow. Before leaving Hagi had given the sword of one of the guards he had borrowed to Jung so. After that Aunt Ma immediately let Hagi go from there. Hagi should be back on the line.

The night seemed to change quickly to the morning, the cold began to get into the bone even though the sun slightly warmed the body making Hagi open his eyes slowly from his sleep. Aunt Ma stared anxiously, a cloth to compress the fever still lingering on her forehead.
"You awake? Thank goodness you had a fever and were unconscious last night. You're making us anxious, son." Aunt Ma tries to help Hagi to sit down when Hagi tries to get up.
"You'd better go back to sleep after you take your medicine." Hagi just smiled feeling guilty, ever since meeting this married couple, he had always troubled the two.
"Sorry eomma." Aunt Ma shook her head and hugged Hagi dearly.
"It's okay, son." Hagi hugged aunt Ma dear she was back to miss her mother at home.
From the direction of the room door Uncle Ma entered carrying a bowl of porridge and also a bowl of medicine, making Hagi even more unpleasant.
"Eat and then take this medicine so you'll get well soon." This time Uncle Ma stroked Hagi's head dearly.
"Thank you aboeji." Hagi held back his tears as the attention of his two foster parents exceeded what he had thought.
Last night after returning home from where she was helping Mr. Lee, Hagi immediately collapsed due to a fever caused by a wound that reopened. Aunt Ma could not sleep looking at Hagi's pale, sweaty face. Minister Park, who knows that her trusted servant's foster son is back, is credited with saving an important person by quickly calling a healer and providing the best treatment for Hagia.
"Mentri Park said if you're cured come to her room. There's something he wants to say." Hagi simply nodded obediently then went back to lying down after finishing eating and taking the medicine. His head still feels dizzy.
Hagi was sitting on the porch of the house, his finger was badly injured as it was forced to continue pulling arrows. Several times Hagi took a weak breath and began to blow his fingers that felt sore.
A hand pulled her wrist, quickly Hagi pulled back her hand it was reflexive because the person beside her was a stranger but the person beside her again pulled her wrist.
The guy was ready with the P3K box and then started treating Hagi's finger, he was very serious about treating Hagi's wounds and the opportunity was to use Hagi to stare at the handsome namja beside him.
"Are you a doctor? You're very skilled." Hagi started talking making the handsome namja beside him slightly jerked but resumed his activities.
"No. But I do it often." The namja answered Hagi's question, making Hagi just nod in understanding. Then looked back at the handsome namja beside him.
"You're handsome." For a moment the two were stunned for different reasons. Hagi was surprised that he could quite plainly praise the person beside him, while the namja beside him was stunned because this was the first time Hagi praised him.
Slowly the namja looked at Hagi and then peeked at Hagi's fingers with an affectionate look, until for a moment Hagi held her breath because she was treated with such sweetness and intimacy.
"My name is Kyuhyun I'm a friend of your brother's. Don't forget that." Hagi could only freeze when the namja who claimed to be named Kyuhyun reached out to stroke her cheek.
"I won't forget." Kyuhyun smiled and hugged Hagi tightly.
"Please keep on remembering me, you're frustrating me." Hagi frowned confusedly but he did not ask and only returned Kyuhyun's embrace which he somehow did not refuse. Hagi was not someone who was easily familiar with strangers.
"Yes..I will remember you and hold Kyuhyun_ssi."
Hagi woke up from his sleep, looking at the window that had indicated daylight. She had a good dream, meeting someone from the future. A namja who treated her with sweetness, but when trying to remember her face Hagi head back hurt.
"So it really happened or was it just my dream?" Hagi muttered softly trying to remember when he really could not remember anything. But his dream was really a good dream.
"It's probably because I've missed my house like that." Hagi tried to get up and stretch his stiff joints.
"I think I'm sleeping too much." Hagi started walking out of the room, his stomach was very hungry. He had wanted to go to the kitchen but the commotion in the front yard provoked his curiosity.
Hagi saw a yeoja from the noble class who was now hugging Ma's aunt and Cha's aunt, Hagi could not see his face because the yeoja was on his back. But Hagi was surprised not to play when aunt Ma waved her hand at Hagi and it provoked the yeoja to glance at her.
Hagi's common sense was probably disappearing when Hagi quickly hugged the yeoja tightly.
"I miss you." Hagi's action suddenly made everyone surprised, especially the person who is now in his arms.
"Yeah!!! You're crazy, let go of me, who you are." Yeoja was struggling strongly inside Hagi's arms, as if realizing something Hagi took off his embrace. Just then also a powerful slap shot across his cheek.
"Basar namja is brash, who are you to hold me." Hagi held his hot cheek and knelt before the yeoja.
"Sorry young lady, I think young lady is my friend." Yeoja seemed to be holding back her anger.
"But you can't be as reckless as before, and again you're hugging me. I already have a potential fiancee, how about someone report to my potential fiance." Hagi looked at Aunt Ma asking for help, then quickly aunt Ma approached.
"I'm sorry young lady, she doesn't know who Miss is, and female Hagi isn't male." Yeoja was surprised then looked at Hagi while looking down.
"really? Yak, but why is he wearing men's clothes? You're making people misunderstand. Stand up, I'm sorry I slapped you." The Yeoja was now helping Hagi up, her voice turning soft like never before.
"Next time you have to keep your attitude, I don't know how similar I am to your friend, but you can't just call me." Hagi nodded obediently then looked back at Yeoja who was now smiling at him wistfully.
"Hagi this is our young lady, Park Hyun noodles. You can call her Miss Hyun she just came home from the next village." Hagi bit his lips between happy and sad.
"I'm Hagi Miss, sorry for my stupidity earlier." Hagi lowered his head, while Hyunmie patted Hagi slowly on the shoulder.
"It's okay, I'm sorry I slapped you." Hagi nodded back then looked at the girl before him longing.
