[Storybook] Tale of Bihyung

Black Spirit

Objective
Chapter 7: Behind the Mask

As the traveler and Dolswe NPC Knowledge prepared to embark on their journey, the healer approached them with a letter to the Ministry of Culture requesting more staff. Taking up the healer's request, the traveler and Dolswe set off towards the Ministry. Upon arrival, they stumbled upon a scene shrouded in suspicion. There, they witnessed Minister Kim Geumryun burning a letter.

"...offered Cheoyong's mask to the Great Tree of Goddess Samsin NPC Knowledge and held a ritual."

The rest of the message was charred beyond recognition. However, the sight of Kim Geumryun incinerating such a document could not be ignored. Determined to uncover the truth, the traveler and Dolswe decided to shadow him. Their pursuit led them to a shocking revelation.

"Heh. Hehehe. Muhahaha! Not only do we spread the disease, but we also release the cure to win people's favor... Brilliant!"

Egads! Bihyung NPC Knowledge was not merely a healer. He first sowed the seeds of illness, only to cure them and gain the people's trust! This was all to rally those who opposed the Crown Prince's ascension. With newfound determination, the traveler and Dolswe gathered clues from Bihyung's abode and sought counsel from Hong Gildong. If anyone knew the depths of Bihyung's machinations, it would be his former mentor.
