(Hana POV)
8 days earlier...
————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Me and Anna have been contemplating various things; mainly, how we'd get Min-chul back. Obviously, we could just return to Jinjin and meet him but we don't even know the proper way back. Why would we memorize that?
All of the trails we used are now destroyed by our pillaging and the heavy loads that probably added to the destruction. The marshes and boys are insanely hard to traverse and just the journey would take about 9 days using Anna's speed.
There are no properly made maps that we can rely on and the most important factor hindering us; Dunham. He won't let us out of his sight and it pisses me off.
If already been watched for most of my life by my classmates and peers until Min-chul stopped them. Now that he isn't here, I can't help but feel fear.
That's right. Me; fear. Who would have thought, eh? The independent, powerful girl still is afraid of a little general. God...I need Min-chul again by my side. This world is too corrupt for either of us.
I know I'm probably being paranoid but still...it unsettles me. I need. I need to get rid of him. All of those people who look at me, I need them gone. Their stares are burning me. They are suffocating.
Min-chul left again due to Dunham, his eyes are staring into me, looking at me. STOP LOOKING AT ME! STOP IT!
Why are they looking at me? There isn't anything on my face; Min-chul told me so. There isn't anything wrong with my personality; Min-chul told me so. There isn't anything wrong with ME! NOTHING IS WRONG! I'M PERFECTLY FINE!
So why... why do they stare? Their eyes are disturbing. They are disturbing my entire being and I need them gone. If they won't stop staring, their eyes might have to go. I don't know anymore.
"Hana! Hana! Help me!" (Min-chul)
"Min-chul!"
""Don't try, little girl. Min-chul made a mistake helping you and we are going to show you life without him. We are setting him free of the burden named 'Hana'!!!""
"NOOOO!!!"
'Haaahh...haaahhh..I know what to do now.....I need. Dunham. Gone. I need all of the people with eyes on me, gone'
Honestly, Dunham, his lap dogs named officers and the small minority of soldiers are all staring into me and disrespecting Min-chul's decisions. What a joke.
I know Min-chul won't ever abandon me as long as I'm still useful to him. Despite him being as complex as he is, I know the basics of him; provide something and be provided with his presence.
A fair deal, no?
"Hoy! Hana! Calm down!"
Anna starts shaking my body and smacking my face. I see where she's coming from and I do know her motives. Her mind is a very depraved place; dirty and dank.
She's filthy yet still believes Min-chul is worthless enough to choose. He'd probably rather dating Chung-cha than you, Anna. But she is important for one reason only.
My little scapegoat.
Min-chul knows her mindset and what she's like, I know whats she like and Min-chul doesn't know how deprived of him I am as well. Whenever something happens, it's immediately passed onto Anna's back.
Despite her nature she's no manipulator or psychopath. She's a phony, a fake. She acts tough yet isn't committed to Min-chul, she relies on him for support yet when things go south, she jumps ship.
A fucking ungrateful coward.
Min-chul doesn't know my motives yet but he will soon understand why I do what I do. If he ever discovers it, of course. He trusts me a lot and for that, I can't help but love him even more and more.
"I'm calm, Anna but...do you ever think about why Dunham sent Min-chul away?"
"Why? I think it's because Dunham is a little bitch. He doesn't like the power heroes hold and therefore, wants one of the strongest gone"
'That is plausible but I don't wanna hear "little bitch" coming from your mouth, hypocrite'
Hearing from the horse's mouth, I know basic outline Min-chul was planning; create a rift between us and Dunham and hopefully, Anna or I capitalizes off of that.
"That could be true. Do you see how his men treat him? Don't you think you or someone else would be a better leader?"
"Yeah, of course. It isn't hard to respect your men but he doesn't follow those rules for some reason"
'Great, the seed is planted. Time to water it'
Throughout the week, I started implanting the seed of doubt for Anna. The doubt that Dunham is a good leader but obviously, just like me, no matter how much of a hypocrite she is, she still lives for Min-chul.
I just need to use your name; sorry oppa.
I started alluding to that "if Dunham was gone, Min-chul would be back". And she bought it alright.
On the 8th day, today, I caught her talking to some soldiers and convincing them about the unqualified Dunham and how we should are getting held back and live will be lost.
Hearing her, a powerful and smart hero, they started agreeing with her, gathering their courage and believing they can actually help her lead them to a better future.
One without soldiers being sacrificed for advantages.
In the next hour or so, I caught her preaching and telling various groups of tens of soldiers about how bad of a leader Dunham is. Again, she's a hero and heroes inspire confidence.
They immediately sided with her since they already held those sentiments, they were just too afraid to show them.
'Everything is going as Min-chul planned, hopefully he'll be pleased and reward me with himself'

Hearing the bell ringing, Jeffrey leaves his quarters and enters into his boss' room. He has been doing this for 10 years and he is tired of it already but the pay is too good to leave this dead end.
"Jeffrey. Please update me on the state of Aria"
"Yes sir. From my stay at Destinasia, it seems that Aria's condition has improved greatly. She will be a properly figurehead in a while; shall I buy her another gift?"
"Yes please and Jeffrey...what's Rosé doing?"
"She is...she is acting as usual. Nothing out of the ordinary is seen with her current actions"
After the report is placed onto the desk of the old man, Jeffrey gowns deeply before leaving the room. He loosens his collar and enters into his room. Jeffrey has worked too hard for this point to quit.
He is far too deep in.
After years and years of dedication to his job, he became the absolute right-hand man of his boss. He has not had a spy on his tail for the last 3 years. It just shows how much the old man values Jeffrey's services.
At night, the old man noticed that Jeffrey has a tendency to go out at night and cheat on his wife at the bar. The old man once comforted him but Jeffrey stood firm and the old man finally let it go.
"Hiya, little stud~"
"Hey, Marabelle"
Jeffrey enters into a suite after flashing his V.I.P Card and after he enters Marabelle makes sure that he is ready for her. Jeffrey slowly enters his penis into her already wet pussy.
"Annnghh~~ Jeff! Fuck me harder!"
She starts moaning loudly into his ears, almost blowing his eardrums out. He starts thrusting harder and harder into her slutty pussy and after 5 minutes, he start feeling the pressure in his dick; he's about to blow his load.
"Fuck, Mary. I'm gonna cum!"
"M-me too! Come on! Outside, Jeff!"
Jeffrey knows the procedure after getting familiar with it for about 5 years. Just as his load is about to blow, he perfectly times his pull-out and comes all over her face, painting her white.
"Haaah....haaa... that's was great, Jeffrey. Now, let's get down to business"
"Yeah...I already fed the cow. How is the crow doing?"
"The crow? She's still the same after Bol. At least that's what I heard from the lion"
Jeffrey wipes his sweat off with her lingerie, much to her dismay but she can't do anything. He is wayyyyy too valuable to piss off.
"Is it ready?" (Jeffrey)
"Of course. The crow is about caw in a few dots about the pig. Then, the pig and the l-"
"I don't need to know the details. I already discussed this with the Lion personally. Now, I'll be leaving to get a drink"
Quickly ironing his clothes with some fyr magic, he leaves her with a simple goodbye, to which she chuckles self-depreciating way. She has been sleeping with him for years even when she know she won't be with him; he loves his wife too much.
The original plan was to just meet but she soon took the initiative and led him to bed. Guilty? Sure she feels guilty but for 5 years, she finally slept with the man she has loved for over 6 years now behind her husband's back.
Jeffrey, unaware of her thoughts, returns to have a drink at the bar. The security guards make sure he doesn't have any marks on him that show his recent purchase since it's quite illegal in Gwanya.
'Haahhh...patience is key, Jeffrey. Be patient'
