Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Like so, Dorian was off to the Gia estate.

But in the meantime, a certain grumpy man had long arrived at his family's main estate, wanting nothing more than to chew the heads off several others.

.

--3 hours ago--

.

"Welcome back, Old head."

"Welcome, Old head."

"Welcome..."

"Welcome..."

"Bah! Welcome, yourself!!!"

The old man was so furious that he completely disregarded everyone's greetings.

How?...

How can they treat him like this? Is it that they're looking down on him, or are they just trying to anger him to death?

Bloody bastards!!

The short old man whipped his can around maniacally, like a ninja ready for war.

What a firecracker.

The many guards inwardly thought with helpless expressions on their faces.

Sigh...

Even as the old man grew, he had always been very hot-tempered.

One might think age would slow him down. But that would be wrong.

And the person who inherited his firecracker personality was also the young master, the future head of their clan/family.

"How dare those bastards? How dare they do much on my site and still refuse to give me a sound explanation? Outrageous! Just who do they think they are?"

In a grand hall, the many guards in black suits surrounded the old man, listening to him kick and make a fuss.

One moment he would sit, and another, he would stand and wave his cane around maniacally.

Such a habit was so common whenever the old man was around that now, several minds were coming in with soft futons to place on the floors.

"You! You!... I'm not a baby that I would fall at every turn!"

"Yes, yes, yes... Old head." The head maid and all the other maids replied while still placing the futons with calm expressions.

"..."

The old man felt aggrieved, feeling bullied in his own home.

(:T^T:)

.

"You!... Forget it! Call that traitorous grandson of mine now!!!"

Traitor... Traitor... How dare he side with outsiders?

The old man finally sat, crossing his arms against his chest while keeping his feet apart and tapping them impatiently.

"Useless grandson! Worthless boy! Stupid Ghu bastard! Despicable Ghu tigress!... Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!!" He mumbled and grumbled, waiting for his 'favorite' grandson to descend.

Well!

The boy had better speak up about the matters that day, or... or... The idiot won't be his favorite anymore!

Hmph!!

Old Bho twisted his mouth to heaven while inwardly thinking of all the arrogant words he would spew onto Bho Jin if the boy didn't clarify things.

And sure enough. The ancients were right.

While in wait and making imaginative plans, time sure does go fast.

In no time, the one he had been waiting for finally descended.

"Grandpa! When did you get back? Aren't you scheduled to return in another 2 weeks? How was your trip? Why didn't you inform me to pick you up at the airport?" f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

Bho Jin's warm eyes melted a great deal of rage Old Bho had pent up inside.

(^π^)

As expected of his most dotted grandson.

The joy on the boy's face wasn't fake. Bho Jin truly loved his grandfather, worrying about him at every turn like an old mother.

The old man's face instantly grew softer when he saw Bho Jin.

But recalling his purpose for coming back early, he still kept his face tight and angry.

"Don't Grandpa me! I don't dare to answer such words from a traitor like you!!!!"

"..."

.

Traitor?

Blink. Blink.

Bho Jin felt it hard to keep up with his Grandfather.

In what way had he become a traitor? Wasn't he already good to his grandpa?

Or wait!

... Could it be that old age is catching the old man, making him speak gibberish?

Bah!!!

If the old man knew what his precious grandson thought, he would no doubt take his can and smack the fool in the head several times over.

Who is old and confused?

(*π*)

"Grandpa, forgive this grandson of yours for being too stupid to comprehend your words. But what are you talking about?"

Old Bho gritted his teeth. "What am I talking about? You ask me what I'm talking about?... Good, good, good stupid, treacherous grandson. Can it be you've forgotten what happened at our Bho Firefly House Of Rocks & Crystals?"

Very slowly, Old Bho stood from his seat, pointing his cane at Bho Jin arrogantly.

"You dear boy, you have guts!! You not only sat there and watched those Ghus close down the site for a few hours, but you also dared to hide the truth about what actually went down from me??"

Bam!!

Old Bho smacked his cane hard on the ground with a powerful force that almost broke the cane apart.

Bubuum. Bubuum.~

Bho Jin's heart thumped loudly.

Sure enough, his grandfather was still as powerful as he used to be when he was young.

Growing up in the main house, he had witnessed his grandfather's display of strength over the years.

Old Bho's face turned an interesting shade of red when building his rage inwardly.

The more he spoke and complained, the angrier he grew.

.

One has to know even after that day, the Ghus had never told him the real truth about the matter.

The excuses they gave were indeed believable. But knowing the Ghu couple personally, he felt they were covering up the real truth of the matter.

His instincts even to this day, told him he was right.

What's more, the Ghus had suddenly stopped taking his calls, as though they were the highest people in the world.

And even when they finally did pick up his call, it was as though they were calling from outer space because ether location was untraceable.

Yes! That's right.

To investigate what happened on his site, he did send a few of his men to try finding out what the Ghus had been up to.

However, who would've known they were on the moon in an untraceable place?

At first he was so worried for safety because no matter how much he cursed at them, they were still his friends.

But after worry came anger.

He also felt they should be alright wherever they were. Moreover, his hunch told him their current non-traceability should have something to do with what took place in his Bho Site.

Additionally, because the place belonged to his family, wasn't it his responsibility to know precisely what hidden dangers had visited the site in advance?

Of course, his grandson wasn't meaning things easier for him seeing as he kept bringing things over every time they spoke on the phone.

Thus, with all the weirdness going on, old Bho stopped his plans short, coming straight home to investigate things for himself.

.

Bho Jin looked at his grandfather, knowing eventually, he wouldn't be able to keep the truth away from him.

He and old Bho have always been close.

So he honestly wanted to tell the truth.

But the question now would be whether his grandfather would believe it or not.

Even if it were him and someone told him there was a big supernatural battle that took place, he... He would quickly call a doctor to have the person's brain checked!

So you see... It's not that he didn't want to say, but the truth was far more fantasy-like than the lie he and the Ghus conjured up.

"Grandpa..." Bho Jin was helpless. "I... I..."

Ring!!~

The phone rang loudly. And Bho Jin inwardly sighed with relief.

Saved by the bell.

Old Bho squinted his eyes, suspiciously staring at Bho Jin while taking the phone from the guard's hand.

"Old head... It's Capkah!"

"Hmmm..." Old Bho nodded, waiting for the guard to step.

"It better be good."

[Old head. It's more than good. The Ghus are finally back on the map! And from the looks of it, they're headed for the Gia residence] The deep voice on the other end told.

At least they're fine and alive.

That was Old Bho's first reaction, followed by wonder.

'Gia residence?...'

He stared at the ground, with no one knowing what he thought.

"Put a hold on all lookouts. Since they've resurfaced and are well, there's no need for anything else. Resume your previous tasks."

[Understood, old head.]

Tut...

The phone call ended.

But Old Bho was still staring at the floor, with no one knowing what he thought.

Things were getting more and more strange.

But as a good friend, how can he not crash their little party at the Gia residence?

.

Old Bho tapped his cane on the ground lightly as though running several schemes in his mind.

Everyone only stood still, too familiar with the old man's moods.

Now, he looked nothing like his earlier firecracker self.

Now, he was calm, which can only mean one thing.

"Get the cars ready. And boy, you're coming with me."

Bho Jin was taken aback, looking at his Grandfather's mischievous look.

He has plans of his own. But with Old Bho in this state, how dare he say anything contrary?

He had a bad feeling about this.

Gulp.

He parched his throat, helplessly opening his mouth. "Grandpa... Where are we headed?"

Old Bho stopped dead in his tracks.

Where?

"To storm the Gia residence, of course!!"

"..."
