Chapter 5 – Episode 5 – Gumiho (1)

“At Namgung Sega, her man also practiced martial arts, so that’s true.”
“What, nonsense nonsense.”
“So, did I really cross Sega’s restraint… I guess this is a big thing.”

The heroine has been making really nonsensical noises. According to the saying, a man is a quiet animal like a ‘woman’, and a woman is active like a ‘man’.

This does not fit the logic of all things. Originally, males are active to go out often to protect their females and children, while females are calm to protect their offspring and nests.

‘It’s a heavenly rule that has been established since time immemorial.’

It’s my opinion, but somehow this heroine has been training hard to become a martial artist, and it seems that she has lost her mind.

So don’t talk nonsense like this. Thinking like that, I think I know a little bit about the principle of this nonsense.

“Hmm, let’s put this down for now.”

Suddenly, the blade of the spear held in the heroine’s hand bent like candy. A dizzying grip that transforms the shape of iron.

Soon, the spear blade is down! The tip broke off with a sound and fell to the floor. The sharp part is lost, so it is no longer functional.

“What!”
“I was able to break even the spearhead. I didn’t because that would cause her shrapnel to bounce up and get stuck in her face. Young master.”

It’s an incredible force. Such strong grip power is too strong to be called a third-rate warrior. Enough, second rate… Among them, it must have been on the pretty strong side.

‘By the way, why are you suddenly saying respectful things to me?’

Why is she the woman who just talked plaintively to me and raped me? She couldn’t understand why she became so ungrateful.

“… It wasn’t a lie to say that Namgung’s family was restrained.”
“What, what?”
“It’s about making a deal with her original daughter.”

The heroine grabbed her spearhead, then she snatched it from me and threw it aside.

It seems that this woman has finally believed the lie I told her earlier that would not work for her.

‘Come to think of it, even when my men were dying, they didn’t come forward.’

He must have felt that my movements were unusual. The Murim family is famous for raising their children as warriors from an early age.

Looking at her unusual posture, this heroine must have mistaken me for being Sega.

“If you forget what I did to you, I will just let go of Young master.”
“What?”
“Oh, I don’t mean to send you away empty-handed. I’ll show you the way to the village. That’s your purpose, isn’t it?”
“… It is, though.”

The heroine whom I mistook for Sega changed her demeanor, to my surprise.

She has to do it. She seems afraid of retaliation herself. Even if they kill me and bury me somewhere, they can quickly find my body and then guess the culprit in an instant.

That’s why the thieves run away even if they hear the shaman of the Murim family.

“So, don’t let Sega know about this.”
“Why should I?”
“Of course, there is a way to break your promise and run to the family. However, if you do, I will kill you.”

In her rather serious eyes, I realized that this woman was not lying, only telling the truth.

The moment I say no here, my neck will no longer be attached to my body.

She said, ‘To not fight is to win. It was very embarrassing and embarrassing what happened to this woman. Let her just pass it on for now.’

Feelings of resentment still surged up so fiercely that I wanted to jump right in and rip off the skin on his face. I don’t want to lose my life because of it. So I nodded lightly here.

“Okay. I will leave this matter to you, so please guide me.”
“You speak well. Well, looking at his expression, I don’t think so. Don’t think too much! Since I also lost two of my men, let’s assume that we both hit each other.”

Yes, yes… Let’s assume you ate one. Actually, the only thing I’ve lost is probably, sympathy. Thinking that way made my heart feel lighter.

“I can’t guide you the way myself because I need to evacuate. If you walk all the way down the stream, you will come across a private house. If you stay overnight there and are properly guided, you will surely come to a large village called Hogwigol.”

Having finished her words, the heroine raised her seat on the rock where she was sitting. Before she knew it, she had all her clothes sorted out.

“Then, I’m going to make you step back. Well, she is enjoying herself very well.”

Aww! The heroine hit my butt very hard with the palm of her hand and then hurriedly ran into the forest. So fast that her speed made her seem faster than a tiger attacking her prey.

“Ugh!”

By the way, real to the end! My, if I become strong again, I will tear that bitch to pieces and throw the gun away.

With such a promise, I put on a lot of clothes. I went downstairs, wiping the bloody knife into the river.

It was noon, when the light of the sun was more annoying today.

***

Hogwigol (狐鬼洞).

It was written like that on a wooden stake in front of the village. If you try to interpret the meaning, it would be about ‘fox ghost village’.

‘It’s a fox ghost. Is it that a ghost is coming out?’

It’s really, really weird to use that as a town name. Bondi, don’t you build it with a more splendid feeling? Whether it’s a flower whether it’s a person of origin.

Anyway, with that in mind, let’s enter the village. Indeed, the size of the town was so large that it was quite noisy.

‘I should be able to make a spear at a blacksmith even if I pay more.’

The atmosphere of the village is bright, it means that the chief official in charge of this village is very stupid. If it were a nobleman like that, there was no way he would let an individual pick up a weapon.

‘Sweet, should I go somewhere else?’

I heard that there are several more villages to walk a little further from here.

However, it is said that the road is difficult and there are many thieves and stray animals.

So I was going to buy food and weapons here and go somewhere else. This is very sad.

‘Let’s look around.’

Of course, this is just my prediction, it’s not like you can’t really save it. After entering the village, he moved to a nearby tavern.

Not only are you hungry. It was because I had to arrange a place to stay for the time being.

‘When I enter a place like this, I don’t know why, but a fight breaks out.’

Thinking of the giant falling on the table, I smiled involuntarily.

I opened the door to the tavern and went in.

‘What?’

Something was strange inside the inn. Should I say that I feel a sense of distance from the place I knew? A bad energy welled up from within, making my body tremble slightly.

For now… It’s not what I went inside, took a seat, and waited for Jeom Soi to arrive.

“Welcome to! Are you alone?”
“… Yeah? Ah yes! Alone. Bring me a plate of spores and some beef noodles. I don’t drink, so please don’t give it to me.”

Something is weird Wasn’t he a man who usually did fortune-telling at an inn? But in this store, a young woman came out and asked the customer what food to order.

‘Looking around now, there’s something strange inside the store…’

And in an tavern with this kind of atmosphere, women from around the world wouldn’t come to visit often. Oddly enough, the inside was filled with things with hair reaching to the waist, let alone men.

It’s really strange. Originally, isn’t it normal for a woman to be stuck in her family? I really…

‘And you dare to glar at me, don’t you? These nasty things…’

Is it because I’m the only man in here? For some reason, all eyes in the store were on me. This meant that I was too weak, so I let out a sigh of relief.

‘If only it was the body of the original principal! I wouldn’t have let these dregs live!’

I realized that I had to become stronger as soon as possible.

“It’s a face I haven’t seen before. Are you from a foreign country?”

Look at this. The stars are coming. As I was sitting on the chair, a strange woman came to the table where I was sitting.

What the hell has happened in the world these days that girls are not chaste and run at it first like this? Don’t you know that when the hen crows, the family is ruined?

“You don’t know…”
“By the way, will the man I’m going to marry now use it even if he wanders the streets carelessly like this? Oh, are you visiting your wife by any chance?”
“…”

What, strange… In my mind, I jump up and check my blood vessels. I want to kill you, but I endured it for a while because I was trying to draw attention.

“Now, if you’re done teasing, you can leave.”
“… Chet! Not fun! Okay. Got it. But that’s it. Wouldn’t it be better to get out of here before nightfall?”
“?”
“Oh, you don’t know. Tonight is the night the fox ghost appears.”

Fox ghost? Come to think of it, the name of the town was like that.

“Tell me about that for a moment.”

Maybe I can get stronger quickly here.
