“He was so beautiful! I was so mesmerized I thought my heart would stop!”
At least his face was. Remembering that beautiful face, Sohwa’s cheeks flushed involuntarily.
“More beautiful than me?”
“If you look at his face, there’s no other beauty like....”
“MORE beautiful than ME?”
Her shoulders were turned sharply. When she finally looked at Dohwi, she bit her lip at his intense gaze directed at her.
“That fairy... no, that immortal was beautiful and graceful, and you are handsome and....”
“Ah, so you saw an immortal who was more beautiful than me. That’s why my fox is so happy, I see....”
Dohwi’s lips curled up as if he was pleased, but it wasn’t a smile.
He pointed his chin towards the peak beyond them.
“Is that where you saw the immortal?”
“Y-Yes, that’s right....”
Dohwi smiled at Sohwa, who still didn’t know what to do.
“That’s the Imoogi you’re so afraid of, Sohwa.”
“What?”
