Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

100 A Foolish Lady

Soujin looks towards his people who are coming towards him.

"Reporting to general, there are some people in the forest and they have been cleaned out."

"Good work. Rest for tonight."

Soujin eyes swept the forest as he is looking for any clues. He wants to know, what is the purpose of leading them inside their territory? He already keeps some of his soldiers on the way to keep him updated if something were to happen on their way back. Getting trapped inside the enemy territory is not a light thing and he would never want to make such a foolish mistake.

He noticed some movement from the hill quite far from them and he could faintly see the shape of smoke. There are people there and the number is not small. This area is going to be their battlefield tomorrow.

"Moa, you send people down there! Inspect the surrounding and gives me the detail," Soujin eyes keep on staying watching the area. He wants to see, how they could go away from his grasp.

The next day, Jun Min approached the still sitting Soujin. He looks towards the next hill and could faintly see some people there from the dust. But his vision is unclear and he could only make some guesses.

"The enemies are there?"

"Yes, their number is almost on par with us," Soujin answered without looking around. His eyes are watching the movement of the enemies carefully.

"I will look around first."

Soujin nodded his head without looking at the other party. Jun Min returned to his tent and this time, he takes a bath. After wearing the face masks for days, he wants to change it.

"Yamin, look around the area with Yasha. I want you to inspect the whole area and give me a detailed report later."

Although he did say to Soujin that he wants to take a look at the area, he hadn't finished the map he has to make. Because of that, he sends the two of them away first while he is working on the map and strategy based on what he knows so far.

"Yes Young Master."

Jun Min didn't hurry to use his face mask again as her face skin is already too dry from wearing one for a long time. There is no one around here and he needs to review the maps he makes as well as thinking of some strategies. The enemy position is advantageous and they're most likely will turn their tail back again and lured the soldiers even deeper. If that is so, it will be hard to counter attack them.

Picking up his brush, Jun Min started to draw the enemy location and the possible movement on their side. To make them wants to fight back, there must be something they need to do. Probably, slipping inside their ranks and make some killing will do? If it's required, he is quite proficient in doing sneak attack and his body is flexible. Wait… he's a general and it should be the job of an assassin.

Jun Min thinks again, the areas around here are mostly forest with some slightly higher ground which makes hill like the ones they are standing on. Trying to gain advantages from the height in the forest is almost impossible. At most they can only try to do a battle in the forest using a special method. He had soldiers he specifically trained to battle in the forest, but can they compared with the soldiers from here?

"Jun Min? Who are you?"

That voice wakes her up from her trance. Jun Hua hadn't worn her mask and her face is that of a girl. Hearing that voice from behind her, she tried to escape to the side, but he's quicker and captured her hand. Before Jun Hua can evade, she is facing head on with the flawless face of Soujin.

Soujin only wants to take some rest from looking non-stop towards the hill. He would never expect to sense a person inside Jun Min tent when the other person is saying that he's going to look around. When he thinks the other party had returned, the one he saw inside is a girl holding a brush with a map in front of her.

Out of impulse, he needs to know who she is. But upon seeing her face, he's stunned. The clear eyes of this girl are telling him that the person before him is Jun Hua, the sister of Jun Min. What makes it unbelievable is how pretty she is after unveiling herself. With her glossy lips and partially messy hair, it makes her looks even more charming.

"Jun Hua…?"

"General Soujin," Jun Hua wants to cry. She forgot that this person is someone capable to hide his presence so perfectly until she cannot find him unless he comes really close with her. If she knows that this person is going to meet with her, she wouldn't take off that mask no matter how uncomfortable it is.

Now, what is she going to do? How can she explain her existence here? Although this is Jun Min's tent, there is no way a man would normally bring a girl to war. Especially in a case of a rising general like Jun Min, why would he bring his useless sister to the battlefield? Facing the sharp Soujin in front of her, she truly wished to dig a hole and stay there.

"What are you doing here…?" his voice stopped when he noticed the stack of paper on the table. There is some painting equipment on the side and on the table are some neat pictures of the place they have passed on the way. The painting is truly exceptional and the usual maps he used cannot even be compared in the slightest.

Seeing the gaze on Soujin had landed on her painting, Jun Hua feels that she needs to dig the hole even faster. What should she say now?

"Do you paint them?"

"… Yes."

In a single glance, it's clear that the paint hasn't dried yet on some parts which she had just marked. Even if she wants to lie, she needs to make a better lie, so she cannot say that it's not her drawing. Besides, didn't he already see her holding a brush?

"Jun Hua, are you a strategist?"
