Chapter 170 – 170. Black Market Full Course

Purple neon. Moderate humidity and the subtle scent of incense.

The flesh of a human being hugging himself warmly. Breath. And…

“Ayla. Woke up?”

“Ugh.. Yeah..”

At Ayla’s call, Ayla tossed and turned her body. She stretched her body like a cat in Jo Joon’s arms. Soon, her joints clattered and her magical energy spread throughout her body.

She said that for her part she had turned off her power for the first time in a very long time, so it was good to say that she had been asleep for the first time in years. Especially, the fact that she could wake up in the arms of a person she liked made Ayla feel very good and refreshing.

Originally, she was the one who morbidly hated falling asleep, but she even thought that she could fall asleep any time as long as she was in Jo Jun’s arms. Then Cheshire came over and pressed Ayla’s forehead with her index finger, who was struggling to wake her up.

“Ummm..”

“Ayla. Wake up.”

“Huh? Ah…”

Ayla immediately opened her eyes. She glanced at Cheshire, who was wearing a neon mask.

“It’s been a while, Ayla.”

“Right. Long time no see, Cheshire. But why are you always wearing a neon mask?”

Ayla, who came to her senses, exchanged her greetings with Cheshire, who was looking down at her. She was a no-brainer, just like the people she had met yesterday. However, the gap between the greetings was unimaginably long.

Ayla hasn’t been to the black market in a while, and Cheshire hasn’t been looking for her Ayla either. Either way, the two got along very well. Cheshire loved her Ayla and Ayla felt sorry for her Cheshire.

“By the way… Why is this button undone?”

“Uh? Ah. Could it have come loose after taking it out of the bag?”

“Um.. Is that so?”

Ayla got the feeling that her clothes were a bit disheveled, but she didn’t really care. She must have messed up her clothes on the way, and she shrugged it off.

Jo Joon, who had taken Ayla’s clothes off and rubbed her breasts, let out a sigh, thinking that Ayla was relieved when Ayla passed over her. She was afraid that if Ayla had noticed that she had been nearly raped while she was sleeping… She was afraid that she would distance herself from her.

“Judging by the fact that Cheshire is there, it seems that he has safely entered the black market. This is… Your base in Cheshire, right?”

“That’s right. I came to fix the laser concentrator the other day.”

“Right. Has she been better than that?”

Cheshire and Ayla chatted for a while. In the meantime, Jo Jun, who was ready to go out, put the goggles back on Han A-ram and asked for trust.

“Never eat what a drug dealer gives you.”

“Okay. It’s already the third. She’s not even a mother. Stop it.”

“No, really. Never eat it If you eat it, you die.”

“No, I understand.”

Aim wanted to leave Han Ah-ram at Cheshire’s base. However, if he was going to leave it because he was afraid of the black market, he shouldn’t have brought him to the black market in the first place.

The black market is a place you have to pass through to get to the basement level. If you’re mentally ill enough to survive the black market, it’s far better not to take her to the basement.

Jo Joon knows that, so he can’t leave Han Ah-ram even though he is worried about it. He observed Han Ah-ram’s condition in the black market, and if he wanted to get rid of it, he had to let him go before 4 hours had passed.

“And slave traders are crazy perverts, so just talk to them and chew them. Ignore everything and stick right behind me. Got it? It is unconditional.”

“Okay. Okay did you understand Stop nagging.”

“Whew… Why am I so worried about you?”

“Don’t worry. I’m not doing anything weird.”

“That’s not it, Aram. It’s just… It’s just too dangerous here. It’s a place where defensive driving is not allowed.. This is..”

As Cho Joon said, the black market is a place where lives are lost due to a little carelessness. Even aiming could have been in danger if it hadn’t been for nothing since the guide, Cheshire, followed.

Han Ah-ram seemed to be listening, but in fact, she was memorizing what Jo Joon said like crazy. He didn’t miss a single note and he memorized it completely. In a sense, this is a team game. If he makes a strange mistake, his entire team will suffer.

This is Han Ah-ram, who was a comprehensive game broadcaster before the end of the world. She even participated in a few game competitions with 5-in-queues. That’s why she knew very well how much she would have to worry if her little mistake ruined her game.

Fortunately, she is a strong type in real life. Therefore, she would never make a mistake in what Jo Jun had told her.

By that time, Ayla, who had finished talking with Cheshire about her current situation, took out a hood that covered her face in darkness from a vintage bag she had brought and explained her plan to her party.

“For now, I will move separately. There is a merchant you must meet in the black market.”

Ayla already had a history of wandering around the black market alone several times. To her, her black market is just her back alley, which is a bit dangerous. That’s why she was able to get around without any problems without the help of her guide, Cheshire.

Above all, the ‘fence’ she was about to meet was a very sensitive person, so it was clear that she wouldn’t reveal herself if there were others in the party, other than Cheshire or Ayla, who were familiar faces.

“Then let’s break up after leaving this room… Jun, where are you planning to go?”

“Uh… First, let’s go meet the poacher, Cheshire.”

“Okay. Then everyone catch me.”

Cheshire held hands with Ah-ram, a first-time black marketer, and Jo-jun, a major customer. Ayla put her hand on Cheshire’s shoulder appropriately and they moved from the base to the food alley of the black market.

******

The four people arrived at the food alley. Aram felt a little less upset in his stomach, probably because it was his second move. There was no problem with Jo Joon because she had moved around a lot, and Ayla was a doll who didn’t know the feeling of being bloated in the first place, so there was no problem.

“Then, let’s move separately from here.”

“Yes, see you later at the central square.”

“Okay, meet me in the main square.”

As it was, Ayla hid herself. Ayla, who had already visited the black market several times, skillfully moved to another location. She’ll probably go see the fence somewhere in the main square.

Fences sometimes bring in very unusual treasures, so she needed to see them.

“Then let’s move too.”

Han Ah-ram, who was wearing a gas mask, did not know what to say to Cheshire’s lively words. It was because, to her eyes, more than half of the food alley looked mosaic-processed.

If she hadn’t worn the perception-impairing goggles, just looking at the food alley would have made her feel nauseous and dizzy. Han Ah-ram didn’t bother to show it, but she got a little scared.

– Aaaaa!!!! Don’t do it!!! Don’t do it!!! Don’t do it!!!

-Kuaaaaa!!!!! Stop!!!!! Stop taking it off!!!!! No!! Don’t cut it!!!!!!

-Kiaaaaa!!!!! Mom!!!! Mom!!!! It hurts!!! Stop it!!!

“Fuck…”

Han Ah-ram was stunned by the sound of screams coming from the alley to her left. She couldn’t understand Manma’s language like Jo Joon, so she didn’t know what their screams meant, but she could feel that something absurd was happening.

Above all, the smell of blood is pouring out like crazy. It was as if she was cutting and slicing people alive.

She instinctively realized. Her left side is dangerous. Beyond imagination.

“How is it… Can you hold on?”

“Eh.. But you, you said you used to go around places like this alone…?”

“Huh. Only once, but A moment before meeting Cheshire.”

“Crazy…”

Han Ah-ram finally realized that the man she loved was, in a sense, far out of the human category. Usually she is just a bit cruel, but she has an image of taking good care of her people…

It was quite amazing to see the high-ranking people without any filter and not suffer any mental damage, or to stand there as if nothing had happened even though dozens of people were screaming to the point of being uncomfortable to hear right now in the alley on the left.

Then Cheshire told Jo Jun.

“The one on the right is dessert and the one on the left is Japanese food.”

“Eclipse? Oh. Let’s go for dessert.”

At Cheshire’s words, Jo Jun dropped the crane and said to go to the right. Jo Joon thought that there were no normal people running a Japanese restaurant on the black market.

When it comes to Japanese food, it’s sushi.. Sushi is a recipe for removing flesh while it’s still alive.

As Jo Joon thought, in the alley on the left, slaughter and processing were proceeding in perfect order in various ways. The screams Han Ah-ram heard were the desperate agony of those who were dying alive.

In particular, from the perspective of the Yi people, Japanese cuisine for humans is ‘cutting flesh alive. Eat it raw’ was a very important point, so I was doing it without adding or subtracting. Even in the thought that ‘solar food has a lot of decorations’, all sorts of bizarre decorations unique to the Yi people were lined up.

No matter how much it was aimed at, it was unreasonable to accept the art of the Yi people with sober mind.

“Okay then…”

Jo Joon stood in the middle and held Cheshire and Han Ah-ram’s hands. Han Ah-ram felt like going crazy at the sound of something being crushed and ground from all directions. So I grabbed Joon’s hand even tighter. It was because he recognized the fact that if he let go of Jo Jun’s hand, he would die.

Mental strength declines in real time. Han Ah-ram tried to look forward as much as possible, but he still caught his eye. Horrible sights.

Like the big face squeezing pus out of its own face and splattering it. However, those pus screaming and calling someone sadly.

Although he couldn’t grasp the meaning of those screams… Han Ah-ram thought it was fortunate that he couldn’t grasp the meaning. If she had grasped the meaning, she would have felt even more uncomfortable.

“Aram. Are you okay?”

“Huh. I can stand it… These goggles.. The performance is really good. Woo-wook..”

“Uh.. Yes.. That’s good. There is a store if you go a little further.”

“Huh. I… I’m fine.”

Actually, nothing was fine. Han Ah-ram felt hell in the mosaic-processed landscape. She’s crazy here. Cheshire and Jo Joon were strange people walking around this crazy place.

Above all, it smells so awful.

A unique fragrance that goes beyond rotten smell. It stimulates the senses and drives people crazy. Even though she was defending her vision with goggles, there was no way to do anything about her sense of smell and hearing, and various sensory information coming in real time made her suffer.

-Foohwaak!!

“Ugh.. Fuck..”

At that time, something spewed out of the store next to Han Ah-ram. The red liquid that spewed out before Jo Joon went crazy and splashed on Han Ah-ram’s face and smeared it on his goggles.

It was sticky blood. It was fishy jam. It was the donut that spewed it out.

In Han Ah-ram’s eyes, it looked like a donut. The goggles for cognitive impairment expressed ‘it’ as a donut to protect Han Ah-ram’s spirit. Mosaic donuts.

“Ugh… The smell…”

Han Ah-ram didn’t know how to react to the smell of her blood and the sour scent of grapefruit that drenched her nose, so she stopped in a daze.

“Ah… That bastard…”

Jo Jun spat out her curse and sent Aram behind him as if protecting him.

Cheshire took her towel from her bag and handed it to Han Ah-ram to wipe it off, then grabbed Jo Joon’s shoulder and pushed him behind her.

Soon the owner of the shop where she had made the mistake walked out, twitching at her face covered in tentacles and tiny infant arms. He started talking to Cheshire, talking in a voice that Han Ah-ram couldn’t understand.

It was disgusting to hear that voice, so Han Ah-ram felt nauseated. Still, she couldn’t throw up on the street, so she snorted and wiped the jam or blood or whatever liquid from her face.

At that time, the voices of Cheshire and the strangely mosaic shop owner gradually rose, and soon Cheshire took something out of his bag.

It was an unusual looking pistol.

“Now, hold on Cheshire.”

“Jun, let go. I’m going to kill this chew. I have to show you who you dare to shout at.”

Han Ah-ram had no idea what the hell was going on.

Suddenly, the donuts (?) On display in the store came to life and spurted out jam (blood)… And he was hit with the blood. Raised and fought.

And now Cheshire put a gun to the head of the Lee tribe, who was believed to be the shop owner. Han Ah-ram felt the presence of the vigilantes approaching from behind him. She was worried that things would get bigger.

-Bang!!!

-Pujak!!

Then a gunshot rang out. As Han Ah-ram looked back at the approaching person behind her, Cheshire pulled the trigger on her gun. The owner of the store, whose head had been blown off, fell to his death.

“Uh.. Uh uh… Can I do that?”

“Oh, it’s okay. That kid got into a fight first. Ji neglected to take care of things… They told me to pay money for damaging the product.”

Jo Joon casually said that there was no problem. Han Ah-ram could only nod her head. Cheshire, who lives here, knows better than she, a newbie who doesn’t know anything, and she said aim is fine, so it must be okay.

“And Cheshire has immunity. Even if you kill a bastard like that, how can the vigilantes not do it?”

“Uh.. Woah.. Cheshire unnie.. So cool..”

Only then did Han Ah-ram feel a little relieved by Aim Joon’s additional explanation. Cheshire’s powers and rights were beyond imagination.

“Well, there was a bit of a fuss. Let’s go again.”

“Yes.”

“Uh.. Yes..”

Soon they went back to the poacher’s shop. Han Ah-ram seemed to be getting used to it. I finally got a sense of what the black market was doing.

This place is just crazy.

Han Ah-ram vigorously followed Jo Joon, leaving behind the sight of other Yi tribes approaching and dismembering the body of the fallen Yi tribe.
