Mr. Ahn showed all the dishes and silverware. Eun Ha found them too delicate and expensive to put in use. Some of them were definitely antique pieces! Mr. Ahn also ended up telling, because of the young fairy's insistence, that the Master used only a portion of the big house and lived there for a long, long time. After that he closed himself up like a shell and revealed nothing more, keeping only his smile matching his slitlike eyes. Eun Ha doubted that he could even see anything with those slits covered by drooping eyelids.
Eun Ha left him in the kitchen, and tried to return by herself to where Hunter Shin was, with her mind full of new questions.
Attracted by a room not yet explored, the stylist strayed from the path and came across a reading room with a fireplace and exquisite decor. Above the fireplace was a framed painting on silk, actually a Joseon-style portrait, of considerable size.
Eun Ha blinked. Was that "THE" Hunter Shin? Totally Joseon style?
