Chapter 17 – Chapter 4 (2)

As if besieging me from all sides, the ronin are coming.
At this time, if you stay still, you will be surrounded and fists and feet will come flying from all sides.

After quickly checking the surroundings, I checked the direction of the corner where the pillars supporting the building were located.

Then he headed quickly in that direction.

Haha! I’ll break a limb!”

Nangin Hana, who I thought was a kid, swung her fists at the thought of getting her 2 hermits as I approached her.

Say it straight-forward.

“Slow.”
“Uh?”

Shaking my upper body, I dodged his fist and then hit him in the face with a counter punch.

Kwajik!

“Keukhak!”

I feel the bones of my nose crushing.
I grabbed the arm of the rongin who was bleeding from his nose and tossed it forcefully toward my back.

“Ugh!?”
“This bastard!”

Some of the ronin who were just coming in line, almost to the level of ragtag people, were slowed down by the ronin I threw.

“You’ve got some talent!”

Nangin Hana, who dodged to the side, quickly swung her arms and attacked repeatedly.

But this too is slow.
Shall I tear it up with a heukrang ticket?
No, the characteristics of the Heilang Fist are too strong.
Who can find out Let’s hide our martial arts here.

I slashed his wrists with both arms and thrust his fist into his stomach.

“Kuhh!?”

The blow to the abdomen collapses the upper body.
Having learned kickboxing, I grabbed him by the back of his neck and, doing neck wrestling (Muay Thai technique of holding the back of his neck), put my knee in his face.

Kwajak!

“Aww!”

This time, the sound and feeling of the nose bones being crushed were transmitted through the knee.
I moved towards the pillar I had my eye on while kicking the guy’s body with my feet.

Pillars and walls block my left and right, so the ronin have no way to attack except from behind and in front of me.

Also, since the place is small, no matter how many there are, 2-3 people are the limit.

“This bastard!”
“Kill it, kid!”

The ronin also took out their weapons, whether they felt such a geographical disadvantage or were excited to see the blood of the ronin I attacked.

“Okay! I’m more comfortable this way too!”

I, who had prepared the most usable sword among the members of the Suzakudan, also pulled out my sword.

Well, if you come, come. I’ll stab anyone in the stomach and use it as a shield.

“Stop!”

At that time, the receptionist who had put the coins down shouted again.

“Everybody stop!”
“What? But this guy…!”
“I’ll share it with each of you, so it’s enough now. And treat them with this money.”

The receptionist handed out hermits according to the number of people, and the ronin also received them and went outside grumbling, probably thinking that risking their lives for just two hermits was too much.

Like that, the ronin left the building and only me and the receptionist remained.

“He’s good at fighting.”

The receptionist opened his mouth to me.

“Check your surroundings and find a place that is at least advantageous to you, and your skills are good. You have experience in combat.”

Huh. I have a bad temper, so when I make enemies, that happens.
Let’s just think about the word.

Apparently, I took a step back because I didn’t want to make things bigger, but if I go strong here, the opponent won’t think about backing down any more.

The opponent gave up one step, but as a civilized person, I should also adjust to it, right?

“Since we’ve had enemies since long ago. Anyway, now you’ve gone through the declaration ceremony to become a ronin?”
“Yeah. I don’t want to make things bigger either. Name.”

Hmm, now you’re in receptionist mode.

“Jincheon.”
“The airless level.”
“I don’t know because I don’t have anyone to compare it to.”

This is no joke.

To be honest, if you say 1 Gabja, you know that it is the inner strength when you have accumulated 60 years of fortune by fortune-telling twice a day.

“I’m guessing it’s roughly second-class. Samun.”
“None.”
“Is this something I don’t want to reveal?”
“No no, no?”
“I see. Among those who want to become ronin, there are many who have a bad back.”
“Hey? We’re talking, right? There’s no such thing.”

No, why is the nobleman who was good at understanding the language keep doing this?

“The punches and knee kicks you showed earlier were not just fights at a glance, but natural techniques. It’s not easy to learn martial arts that feel clean and natural.”

Anyone can join for a monthly registration fee of 130,000 won.

I learned to learn well, but as I unintentionally sharpened and polished it in practice, it seems that this receptionist is mistaken that he has a well-known disciple.

No matter how much I say, I don’t want to understand, so let’s give up.

Like that, the receptionist scratched something with a brush and handed me a wooden plaque.

“It’s a low-level ronin hand. Skill is important for a ronin, but trust is also important. I don’t know how strong you are, but the client won’t choose a ronin without trust.”

The receptionist knew that I was a beginner, so he gave me an additional explanation.

“You are a wooden plaque. Above that, there are bronze, silver, black, and gold plaques. As I said before, skill is important, but it is also important to succeed in the quest and gain credit. Depending on how successful the quest is, you can go up, so know that.”

Well, this is the same as the wind cloud setting.
After a pause, he hit the head first before I could ask any questions.

“As for the recruitment of requests, a piece of paper is attached to the notice board outside. The recruitment method, conditions, location, content, etc. Are all written there. You can report the request you want to me. When you solve the request, you will receive a resolution token from the client and tell me We will pay you when you come.”

I just talked about everything that was necessary.
But should I ask you a question?

“What if the client hid or concealed the contents of the request?”
“If the content of the request and the work you are doing are different, you can return right away. After hearing the detailed explanation, we will investigate. Instead, if you run away without permission, we will punish you.”

But what if the client commits murder?
What if the client openly planned and covered up the truth?
I had doubts about it, but if I said it this way, there would be no limit.

If it was a fantasy world, it would have been solved with a magical greening magic item.

Since it is the world of Moorim without magic, this part is inconvenient.

To be honest, the system is full of holes, but it can’t be helped without some modern stuff or magic, right?

In addition, even in modern times when the system is perfect, since it is a job that people do after all, there are punctures here and there.

“Oh, just one last question.”
“What.”
“Where are the sunspots?”

Black spot.
As Moorim’s black market, it is a place that sells martial arts, internal martial arts, weapons, and elixirs.

Of course, the price is extremely high, so I wanted to know about it first.

“If you build up a reputation, they will come in contact with you.”
“I’ll have to save some money in the meantime. Thank you.”

Was it not a relationship system, but a skill system?
I put the wooden plaque in my bosom, waved at the receptionist, and went outside.

Come see live.

The ronin outside must have heard all the circumstances from before, and as soon as I came out, they spread their energy and tried to press me.

They thought that they couldn’t survive on this floor if they were overpowered by Shinpin, who had just become a ronin.

Hee hee~”

But what?
Come on? If you dare, attack. I’ll deal with you anytime.

Thinking so, I went to the bulletin board, ignoring the ronin who rolled their eyes.

There, he was able to confirm various types of requests.
Escorting a specific person, guarding a specific area, running errands, etc.

I don’t see assassination or anything like that.
Well, for those things, the client will find the ronin himself and recruit him quietly.

Now, what kind of quests should we take to gain practical experience?
To be honest, I don’t know how far my power goes.

Even though I fought with Seol-Lin and sparred several times, isn’t it a little hard to judge my skills by looking at her alone?

Anyway, I confirmed that there was a request like this, so let’s go get ready.

The preparations are to purchase trauma medicine such as gold spears, emergency tools such as bandages, and to check the geography of Jangan and its surroundings.

I don’t even know the geography here, but wouldn’t it be a bit difficult to work as a ronin?

If you don’t have money, there will be problems, but you won’t have to suffer with money for a while since you got a bundle of hermits and a few pennies from the corpses of the members of the Jujak Corps and the corpse of Chwihwaeumryeong.

Thinking so, I wandered around Janganseong with the feeling that I was going to and from a tourist spot while feeling half-traveled.

There is also a luxurious Giru like a huge castle, and you can see the mansions of the rich and warriors in expensive costumes.

Shops and stalls selling various products from the West Station are lined up, and in the dark alleys, people who insist strongly with their faces saying ‘I’m a black snipe’ are giggling.

I also checked the branches of the Jeongmu Maeng, a political faction alliance with military officers learning martial arts, and the Sahyeol Alliance, a Sapa alliance.

Blacksmiths, lodgings, restaurants, etc., Which conduct commercial activities targeting unmanned people, are also included in the eye.

And other than that, private houses and ordinary people, who accounted for the majority, were bound to stand out the most.

‘This seasoning is too lacking in depth. It feels like I finished the seasoning and poured water. The grilled meat is too messy.’

My mouth was bored while wandering around, so I bought a grilled skewer from a food stall and grumbled inwardly, thinking that it would be better to make it myself.

“By the way, people are rare at the end of the corner of the wall. I don’t see any soldiers.”

The farther away from the gate of the castle wall, the more we headed towards the outskirts, the more gloomy the atmosphere began.

There are no people in sight, and most of the buildings have been demolished, so the lungs are full of atmosphere.

Woong woong woong-

That’s why, when an unspecified number of people hum, you can’t stop listening even if you don’t want to.

‘What? Can you hear the voices of boys in a place where there are few people like this?’

The atmosphere is an obnoxious buzz.
When you hear someone’s presence in a place where there are no people, of course you become curious.

I slowed my pace and moved towards the direction where the muttering voice came from.
