Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty and Masked Beast Chapter 286 - Attacked by an arrow

Walking out of that room, Lee Soohyun clapped both of her hands together as a wide smile sore on to her face. After that moment with Mihee, she felt extremely invigorated.

"Wow! That was indeed refreshing," Soohyun voiced out.

"Bullying is indeed something you will be finding refreshing," Minhyun commented.

"Hey! Take that back! That is actually offending, and I was simply having fun," Soohyun voiced out while she protruded her bottom lip to form a pout on her face.

"That is—"

Before Han Minhyun could continue, his eyes narrowed when he noticed something, and extending his hand towards Soohyun, he hugged her, making her move away from her current position.

Caught by surprise due to Han Minhyun's actions, a gasp left Soohyun's mouth, and her eyes widened. Her heart beat rapidly within her chest.

When Han Minhyun released her from the hug, she moved away from him and gave him a confused stare. Then, noticing how he was looking at her back, she turned to look at that way.

On the wall, an arrow was attached for a second before it disappeared into thin air. The arrow was bright red in colour, and slight flame could be seen upon his end before it faded into the air.

Realizing that the attack was intended for her, Soohyun felt a shudder go down her back and realized about how serious the situation was for her.

Looking at the other direction, Soohyun looked around to see where the attack came from. A large field laid before her, and there were no signs of anyone else.

Her eyes scanned up the buildings to see whether or not anyone was present, but there were no cases of them being here.

Even though she found herself slightly shaken up at that, she managed to keep her composure and voiced out, "Was that from someone who manipulated fire?"

Nodding his head, Minhyun vocalised, "They seemed to have targeted you this time around, but the intention is unknown. I don't know it is because you're my fated one or something else."

Then, looking at Lee Soohyun with concerned eyes, he questioned, "Are you alright though?"

"Slightly shaken up, but I am fine," Soohyun said, "This is frightening I guess. I would have been dead if it was not for you. Thanks."

Extending his hand towards Soohyun, he pinched on her nose and vocalised, "You don't have to thank me on such small matters. Now, learn to be more cautious. Your life is being targeted, and I would not be beside you all the time to protect you."

"So, I should be keeping senses completely awake twenty-four, seven now. Alright! I will try to do that," Soohyun mumbled to herself.

Although fear bloomed within her, she pressed that down and did not let it affect her. She did not want for it cloud any decisions she makes.

"You are holding up fine, but things will get horrible, remember that." Minhyun voiced out, "Keep silent about this. I will be investigating on my own, and the results might get tampered with if someone gets to know of it.

Since the person succeeded in attacking you and then hiding so quickly, it means he is someone who stays inside the palace and knows the directions well. Our enemy is among us."

"Can't you do this by checking about all of the fire users inside the palace? This was done by someone inside the palace, and if I not wrong, the number of fire users is not that high compared to the other ones. So, it would not be difficult to reach into a conclusion."

"Things are not simple," Minhyun vocalised, "The person would not have that easily exposed his power to us without a purpose. This is too easy, and I am afraid that there is a trap with this."

"Now that I think about it, you are right. It indeed does feel like some kind of trap," Soohyun voiced out, "But of what type?"

"I just hope it is not what I am thinking about," Minhyun muttered— his words reaching Soohyun's ears.

Turning her head, Lee Soohyun stared at Minhyun and gave him a confused stare. Knowing that she wanted an explanation to what he had just mumbled on, Minhyun simply shook his head.

"It's nothing," he said, "Let's get going now."

However, before the two of them were able to go away from there, they heard footsteps heading towards them, and turning their head, they saw some of the guards walking towards them.

When they stopped in front of Han Minhyun, they bowed at him respectfully when their Leader stepped forward and waited for Minhyun to give him the orders.

"Speak up," Minhyun vocalised in a nonchalant tone.

"Master Minhyun, it was reported to us that there was an attack made at here. Are you alright?" the leader of the guards vocalised.

Lee Soohyun could guess how Minhyun had tensed up after hearing those words from the guard and, then, recalled about Minhyun wanted her to keep the entire matter a secret. Now that it would not remain as a secret any longer, Minhyun was probably in a difficult position over it.

"Both of us are fine, but who had reported about it to you?" Minhyun questioned— his voice being grim.

"Master Minhyun, one of the Maids in the mansion had. I will be checking the scene for evidence then, Master Minhyun, if you give me the permission," the Guard vocalised.

Han Minhyun nodded. As much as he did not want the situation before him to be analyzed, he was aware about how it would seem suspicious if he did not allow that.

Lee Soohyun had noticed Han Minhyun's reluctance and wondered about the reason behind it. It was most definitely something else than what she had initially thought about it.

"Under which Leader are you?" Minhyun questioned.

"We are under Leader Taemin, Master Minhyun. Then, we will be proceeding with the investigation," he vocalised before bowing at him.
