Like the moonlight in the night sky, the impression was not just cool but piercingly cold.
The intimidating atmosphere, overpowering with just a gaze.
And the blade pointed at Yeon Woo’s neck.
The same air that was there when they first met lingered between Yeon Woo and Geon.
Geon, with a voice as icy as his expression, said,
“No need to go far. I’ll cut you down right here.”
“Wait, just a moment! I’m not deserting!”
Yeon Woo exclaimed desperately, just as Geon was about to exert force on the hilt of his sword.
She couldn’t die so pointlessly after making it this far.
She had to clear up the misunderstanding quickly, considering her life was at stake.

“I am Hong Yeon Woo, a new trainee! I was looking for a merchant around here!”
“A merchant?”
Geon frowned, and Yeon Woo’s voice trailed off weakly.
“Yes. For tonight’s initiation ceremony, I need to buy meat and alcohol, and I heard there’s a merchant at the north gate…”
The custom of initiation ceremonies, usually reserved for officials in high positions, was not a practice found in the Kwangho Army.
But with the recent influx of trainees, it seemed that the earlier soldiers were throwing their weight around.
Geon murmured quietly, just out of Yeon Woo’s earshot.
“So, there are ones holding initiation ceremonies.”
The blade withdrew from Yeon Woo’s neck, returning to its sheath.
Freed from the threat, Yeon Woo, worried Geon might recognize her disguised face, quickly covered it with her sleeve.

Her action to cover her face, especially in the darkness, ironically drew Geon’s attention.
“Lower your arm and show your face.”
“I can’t!”
Yeon Woo covered her face desperately against Geon’s command. They had met before, and there was a risk that he might recognize her face.
If she was not careful, she could be exposed as a woman on her very first day of enlistment.
But Yeon Woo’s struggle to conceal her identity was short-lived.
“If you won’t show your face, I’ll have to cut your throat.”
Chilled by Geon’s warning, Yeon Woo’s body twitched.
This man was capable enough to cut her down.
He wouldn’t remember her from one meeting, would he?

Moreover, Geon was seriously injured at the time, so his judgment might have been impaired.
Holding onto a slender hope that Geon wouldn’t remember her correctly, Yeon Woo slowly lowered her hand that had been covering her face.
The darkness still hid her face, so Geon couldn’t see it properly.
“Step forward.”
At Geon’s command, Yeon Woo took a few steps forward.
As the moonlight scattered the darkness, Yeon Woo’s face gradually became visible.
Her face, reflected in the halo of the moon, was pale and small.
Clearly supposed to be a man, but her eyes were captivating.
Yeon Woo’s large eyes seemed to contain the stars of the night sky, creating a mesmerizing universe.
Her cherry-red lips, glossy enough to be mistaken for a woman’s, shone brightly.

Her slender face was beautifully shaped, and her skin was smooth like porcelain.
Moreover, although they were supposed to be strangers, there was a strangely familiar air about this strikingly beautiful soldier.
Geon looked at Yeon Woo questioningly and asked,
“Have we met somewhere before?”
“No way! I’ve never seen you, even in my dreams!”
Yeon Woo hastily shook her head in panic, but Geon’s doubt remained unresolved.
Then Yeon Woo carefully opened her lips to speak.
“Excuse me… while we’re on the subject, do you happen to know where the merchant is? I can’t seem to find them anywhere…”
Yeon Woo naturally shifted the topic to divert Geon’s attention.
Despite her efforts, she couldn’t find the merchant, which was indeed the case.
Much time had already passed, and further delay meant she would be late for the initiation ceremony.

However, the situation didn’t seem to go as Yeon Woo hoped.
“There’s no merchant here.”
“Why not?”
“This is the West Gate.”
“Oh…!”
It seemed Yeon Woo had lost her way in the dark and unfamiliar camp, ending up at the wrong gate.
At the West Gate, finding a merchant was unlikely.
“What should I do now! The initiation ceremony is about to start…”
In her urgency, Yeon Woo paced back and forth.
Geon, watching her, felt puzzled.

It was unusual. Normally, he wouldn’t bother with a trainee who lost their way, but the one in front of him somehow captured his attention.
He felt a sense of unease, as if missing something important.
“Follow me. The North Gate is this way.”
Geon said indifferently and turned his body around.
He was already heading towards the North Gate, near the barracks, after his training.
Deciding to take Yeon Woo along, he thought it practical.
“Thank you!”
Yeon Woo bowed gratefully towards Geon’s broad back.
His unexpected kindness made her rethink her impression of him.
As Yeon Woo followed, her gaze shifted to his lean waist.

The scar she had treated was still visible.
For a regular person, it would have been a grave injury requiring long recovery, but he was moving around fine.
Moreover, Geon’s body had more scars, not fitting the image of a nobleman’s son.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
