Chapter 263 – 264. Get Paid.

“Lie”

Neung So-hwa looked at Seon-woo and opened his mouth briefly.

‘Damn it’

And Sunwoo, who heard her words, spat out curse words inwardly.

Could it be that he saw something he missed!?

“You’re lying.”

Neung So-hwa looked at Seon-wu as if she was cute and continued her words.

“Did you see it?”

Sunwoo continued with a serious expression on his face.

“Of course, the trajectory changed and only cut off the arm.”

Hearing her words, Seonwoo understood.

The fact that she was seeing the whole situation accurately.

And he was astonished.

What kind of eyes do you have that allow you to see so far and in great detail?

There was at least a considerable distance between the place where the arms of the northern members were cut off.

And at that distance, even Seon-woo, who had reached a higher level and had improved eyesight, was so far away that a person looked like a dot.

But how can you see the scene so clearly?

“…”

Hearing her words, Seonwoo was silent.

It was because the embarrassment came when it was discovered that he had lied.

“Did you really think that the original woman couldn’t see it?”

She continued with a slight smile as if the reaction was cute.

“You’re cute.”

“I’m sorry.”

After hearing her words, Seonwoo slightly bowed her head to her.

It was because I thought it was better to just admit it like a man at times like this.

You could have made excuses or made excuses.

However, seeing the mysterious eyes that seemed to see through that essence, I didn’t want to do that.

“You’re quick to admit it. He’s a man indeed.”

After seeing Seonwoo’s apology, Sohwa Neung smiled and continued.

If he possessed that level of force, he would have nothing to say even if he forced himself or made excuses.

In fact, he was the lifesaver of his life.

But he just bowed his head and apologized without any excuse.

To a mere girl who did not know whether she was lowly or precious.

Come to think of it, what moves this man’s head is probably his own beliefs, not high or low status.

How can I not be proud

The trumpeter slowly approached Seonwoo.

Wearing

Then, after placing a hand on Sunwoo’s cheek, he lifted it slowly.

“It’s manly and cool to be quick to admit it, but I don’t like it when you’re willing to bow your head.”

He looked up at Sunwoo’s eyes with mysterious red eyes and continued talking.

“Let them have some more weight.”

After she finished speaking, she slowly removed her hand from Seonwoo’s cheek.

And Seonwoo just stared blankly at her.

When his hand touched his cheek for the first time, Sunwoo’s eyes widened.

It was because I felt an unexpected soft touch and warm body temperature.

And after raising her head, her mysterious eyes, which met, stimulated emotions that resonated deep in her heart.

Pounding pounding

My heart started beating like crazy.

“I will hand over the body of Pi Sang-deuk.”

She looked at her Sunwoo and continued her words.

“But… I promise…”

At her sudden words, Seonwoo hesitated and continued.

“Bonnyeo’s rewards and punishments are accurate. Even if she missed one, how can you make up for all your efforts? You subdued all but one of the magicians. And that effort must be paid for.”

Neung So-hwa looked at Seon-woo and continued her words in a resolute tone.

`Ah..`

And Seonwu, who heard the words of Neungsohwa, exclaimed admiration inwardly.

Because she had the illusion that there was a halo behind her back.

What do you mean by high-pressure and pretty?

It seemed that beauty was not only about appearance.

My heart, which had been beating fast, started beating even faster.

“I’ll put another condition instead.”

“…Tell me.”

Hearing her words, Seonwu replied blankly.

“May I ask where your destination is?”

She looked at Seonwoo with burning, hot eyes and continued talking.

“…It’s the North Sea Ice Palace.”

Sunwoo answered her question without hesitation.

“Then, could you please move with the top?”

“You mean the top?”

“That’s right. The upper ranks are currently suffering significant damage. If other bandits attack in the current situation, they will not be able to withstand it easily.”

She continued with a confident expression.

“That’s why I’m asking for an escort. It can’t be helped if the road diverges, but if the destination is the same, I think it’s a tempting proposal.”

“Hmm.”

Hearing her words, Seonwoo put on a look as if he was worried.

In fact, it was not that difficult to accompany them to the North Sea Ice Palace.

In the first place, the destination was the same, and the road to go was in one direction anyway.
Besides, isn’t there a good reward, the corpse of superficial gain?

She thought it wouldn’t be bad.

“And if you accompany me at the top, I will pay you a lot of money.”

Then she made an offer Jacaranda couldn’t refuse.

“What!?”

“Why not!?”

“No sozer, what are you talking about!”

At that time, the merchants who had been listening to her silently shouted in a huff.

How could a woman who was not an acting manager decide such a thing at will?

“Isn’t it a merchant to pay the price that’s worth it?”

Jacaranda looked at the merchants and continued.

“Isn’t the price the corpse of the superficial gain!”

“You’re saying strange things. Pi Sang-deuk’s corpse is definitely the price I’m passing on to the author, so why are you trying to bury you too?”

Jacaranda tilted her head and continued.

“It’s not a world where everyone lives together! How can you be so selfish!”

“No matter how moral it is!”

The merchants spat out words as if they were unfair.

“You’re saying something funny.”

Jasmine looked at them and smiled coldly.

“Did you guys try to sell her original daughter out of concern for her morality?”

“That… That’s… For everyone… To live.”

“…With the thought of sacrificing a cow…For the sake of…”

At her question, the merchants hesitantly continued talking.

“It’s ugly. How can a man have such a long tongue?”

Jacaranda looked at them with her scornful gaze and opened her mouth.

“What do you mean she’s talking about something that’s already been done!”

Then a merchant raised her voice and spoke to her.

It is true that he tried to sell her out, but how could she bring up what had happened to her?

Shouldn’t we let the past go and live in the present?

“It’s not over. The anger and betrayal I felt at that time are still alive deep in my heart, so who’s to say it’s over!”

Jacaranda looked at her funeral with her cold eyes and shouted at her.

And the merchant, frightened by her majestic work, shrank from her.
It is because an unapproachable majesty began to emanate from her body.
“If you want to be protected, pay the price. The corpse of the deceased is the price that I and my escort pay to the author, so don’t take your eyes off it.”

Jacaranda shouted declaringly, looking around at her merchants.

“…”

“…”

“…”

And the merchants, overwhelmed by her majesty, were speechless.

“I also “

Then Sunwoo, who had been listening to her, opened her mouth.

“I agree with her. If you want protection, pay the price.”

Sunwoo continued with a small smile on his lips.

“How much will you give me?”

And the merchants who heard Seonwoo’s words became contemplative.

***********

Merchants became speculative.

It was because I had no idea how much I would have to pay for it.

“Uh…That…However…How long have you been thinking about it?”

At that time, she continued talking while looking at Seon-woo through acting chief Seok-gyu.

“How long can you do it?”

“…Then…That…The market price of Nangin Market…”

“It’s disappointing. I’m just comparing myself to a ronin.”

Seonwu looked at Seokgyu, who was about to hit her with the wholesale price, and continued.

In Nangin Market, even those who were treated as a special class were only at the peak level.

But how can you treat yourself like them?

“…”

Seok-gyu listened to Seon-woo’s words and just looked at him in silence.

Now I had to save money somehow.

They were the ones with half of the top manpower blown away.

Even the consolation money and compensation for the dead will go out enormously.

In addition, escorts had to be recruited again in the North Sea.

With the power left now, it would have been enough to become prey for the magicians.

“I…If that’s the case…Can I accompany you until I return to midfield?”

“It’s impossible. Accompany you to the North Sea Ice Palace.”

In response to their question, Seonwoo answered firmly.

In the first place, the reason why I allowed them to accompany me now was only in the same direction.

If the direction had been different, they would not have allowed them to accompany them, even if they handed over the corpse of Pi Sang-deuk.

Hearing Seonwoo’s words, Seok-gyu, the acting chief, became tearful.

It was because I felt like I was running out of money.

This was the case with others as well.

They all bowed their heads and sighed.

Doo doo doo

It was then.

The sound of horse hooves began to be heard not far away.

The merchants were startled and flinched.

Could it be that the bandits have come back?

It was because I was afraid.

They quickly turned their gaze to the source of the sound.

And they could see

A procession of countless wagons.

Doo doo doo

Rattle rattle

How long has it been like that

Numerous wagons came to the top of the procession.

Rattle

And in the carriage at the front of them, the door opened and a middle-aged man appeared.

“Oh!”

And after seeing the middle-aged man, acting chief Seok-gyu stood out.

Because it was a familiar face.

“Fortune Dojo!”

The acting chief, Seok-gyu, greeted him with a bright face.

It was because the first sword of Qingseong, with whom he had been friends to some extent, had appeared.

“No, isn’t it the Seokhaengsu at the top of the North Gate?”

Hearing his cry, the fortune teller asked in surprise.

The upper part of the North Gate was a place where the Cheongseong faction readily lent money when they were struggling with debt.

And even after paying off all the debts under the pretext of their friendship, they were still maintaining good mutual exchanges.

Naturally, Seok-gyu and Unjeok-ja, acting chief of the North Gate, were also not without friends.

It was because they were similar in age, and they had something in common in that they each held important positions in the munpa and the upper ranks.

The lucky loser was surprised.

It was because he suddenly saw the figure of Seok-gyu, the acting chief at the top of the North Gate.

“What happened?”

The fortune teller asked him as if he didn’t know why.

And Seok-gyu, who heard his question, began to speak out about everything that had happened so far with a sad expression on his face.

The fortune teller quietly listened to his story.

**********

“That’s right, I think Zhang Daehyup saved you guys.”

The lucky man who had been listening to him shook his head and continued.

“Is that person’s last name Jang?”

After listening to the fortune teller, Seok-gyu asked a question.

It was because I was curious about that young man.

“The person who saved you is said to have been Daehyeop Jang Seon-wu. He is the disciple of the King Dok.”

After hearing his words, the fortune teller gave a short explanation about Seonwoo.

“Are you talking about the head of the Tang family, Dokwang!?”

Hearing his words, Seok-gyu widened his eyes in surprise.

Who is the poison king?

Isn’t he one of the absolute midfielders rumored to have reached the present?

A disciple of such a poisonous king

How can I not be surprised

“That’s right.”

At Seok-gyu’s question, the lucky man shook his head.

“Huh.”

Hearing the definite answer from the fortune teller, Seok-gyu let out a laugh.

If you’re a disciple of the poison king, aren’t you a member of the political faction?

But how could a man named Dong Liang of the political faction ask for money?

Soon, Seok-gyu shook his head left and right.

King Dok might have taught martial arts well, but he didn’t seem to have taught me how to negotiate.

‘Inseong can’t keep up with martial arts!’

He chewed Seonwoo inwardly and looked at the lucky man with his eyes shining.

“Why did you come to the North Sea?”

“The disciples went missing and came to find them.”

In response to his question, the fortune teller answered calmly.

It was because I thought it was nothing to hide.

“Then, why is Jang Dae-hyeop?”

He asked him curiously.

“It wasn’t just Qingcheng that the disciples were missing. The disciples of Danga and Ami were also missing.”

“Ah”

Hearing his words, Seok-gyu let out a sigh of regret.

And he understood at once.

The fact that they are a search party dispatched from Cheongseong, Tangga, and Army.

And Seok-gyu, recognizing that fact, smiled inwardly.

It was because he had the idea that he could be escorted to the North Sea without paying a high price.

Obviously, the leader of the search party would be Unjeokja, the first swordsman in Cheongseong.

And Qingseong and Beijing Sangdan had a considerable friendship.

If you ask him to accompany you to the North Sea Ice Palace, he will not refuse.

“The safety of the upper Beijing is threatened by the raids of the Unjeok Dojo and Majeok Corps. May I ask you to accompany me to the North Sea Ice Palace?”

The acting chief, Seok-gyu, made the most pitiful expression and asked him in a earnest voice.

He was sure

It means that the lucky ones will help them.

“Consult with Jang Dae-hyup about that.”

“Yeah?!”

But his confidence was miserably misplaced.

Because he got a completely unexpected answer.

“The head of the search party is Jang Dae-hyeop. So shouldn’t we discuss it with him?”

Acting manager Seok-gyu made a more confused expression at the words of the fortune-teller.
