Chapter 440 – King Yan’s Disciple 4 (17)

I woke up early in the morning, bought two plates full of dumplings and returned to the dry goods store.

Song Yeon-bun, who had been tormented by me all night, was sleeping soundly even though it had been quite some time since the sun rose.

If you open a store, you’ll hear strange noises, so wouldn’t it be better to calm your mind while practicing female craftsmanship in your room?

As the heat increased and the fragrant smell of the dumplings filled the room, Song Yeon-bun, who was sleeping, sniffed and woke up while rubbing her eyes.

“Ah…”

But when she realized that she was still wearing the eyepatch, she lowered her hand.

“Is there a monster over there?”

Songyeon called me carefully, but she didn’t go in the wrong direction, perhaps because of the fragrant dumplings.

“Yes. I bought dumplings again today. Let’s eat them and train as a woman.”

“Yes. Then can I take off the eye patch?”

“Okay.”

Song Yeon, who had removed her blindfold, opened her eyes wide when she saw the pile of dumplings.

“Anyway, I think this is a bit much…”

“I can be away for about two days. I bought it, so I can eat it without going out of the dry goods store in the meantime.”

“Is this… Two days?”

It’s not that long? Well, I thought I could react that way because I was usually alone and felt the warmth of people.

“So, are you worried that I won’t come back?”

“Yes. Because I haven’t learned martial arts properly yet… Youkai said he would allow me to use sword techniques.”

“If you can just use the inner gongsim method I taught you yesterday, you can sufficiently control energy. Don’t you memorize it?”

“I’m memorizing it… But I might memorize it wrong… So you have to come back?”

What should I say? I decided to teach her martial arts as a joke, but it seems like Song Yeon-bun is starting to depend on me quite a bit.

I felt like if I just left like this, I would end my life again because I was abandoned.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to just tell them my identity, but I don’t know if it means relying more on me, so I wasn’t sure right now.

“Yes. Our deal is not over yet.”

I covered Song Yeon-bun’s eyes with my hands and lightly kissed her forehead.

If you haven’t learned martial arts, you won’t be able to see me even if you touch it, but since you accepted my energy and learned female arts, you will see me if you touch me, so I had to be more careful.

‘I didn’t do anything wrong.’

Because I can’t tarnish Master’s reputation.

Although it was already rumored that he was a disciple who was crazy about Giru, his act of abandoning a woman after violating her is a bit difficult to forgive as a latter-day exponent of a political sect.

When I got up and opened the window, Song Yeon-bun said to me.

“Youkai, next time, let’s eat something other than dumplings. No, I’ll make it for you.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

I closed the window and stepped on the wave wheel in the direction of Jeokgye.

But now that I have quite a bit more stamina and mana, is there a way to create a warp gate through Shadow Craft?

The ability to teleport has been added to the Shadow Dive that I can use now, but I cannot jump that long a distance.

It would be nice if I could jump across space from here to home in an instant.

While I was running with that thought in mind, I strangely caught sight of two people going in the direction of Jeokgye.

So I stopped running at full speed and slowly caught up to those two people.

“Brother, I can’t walk all night.”

“What are you going to do when there are monsters living there? Even if you assure me that there are no fighters, I don’t know what will happen.”

“But will they keep their promise? That they will let you eat.”

“You’re a bitch who doesn’t have a father or a mother, so there’s no harm in eating her. You look pretty, right? Even if the Ark eats you, it’ll still be fresh.”

I happened to be talking about a story related to Song Yeon-bun, and the content was very sad.

I kept thinking about whether the corrupt political faction or the sad faction was okay, but when I came to the conclusion, I didn’t like either of them.

I don’t know if the coffin had functioned properly, but since the monster appeared, they are concentrating their efforts to protect the imperial family…

‘The wider empire is also ruled by the Yurisian royal family thanks to the warp gate, so what is natural about this place, which has no wide and fast means of transportation?’

I made two shadow swords and threw them at the calves of the two people.

Sigh! Deep!

I threw it with an appropriate wrist snap to avoid it penetrating, but unfortunately it went through.

It was not possible to completely control the shadow through Dominate Shadow.

“Huh…?”

At that time, the slightly larger man lowered his head as if he felt something strange.

When I stroked the torn bottom hem of my pants and the shin visible through it with my hand, the attached flesh opened up and blood began to pour out.

“Aaaaah!!!”

“What? Whoops? My legs!”

I realized that the strange sensation was pain and screamed, and the man next to me also turned around for some reason and fell down as the flesh on his legs spread.

The two people who were bleeding from their shins quickly tore their pants and started applying pressure to the wounds, so I stood behind them and spoke.

“Go back to the bow room. Next time my sword will pierce will be a little higher up.”

“Ahh! Okay! I’ll go back to the players’ room!”

“Please save me! I’m going back!”

I thought it was enough of a warning to the two people, so I added another word.

“I’m not afraid of King Yeom, I just plan to stay quiet and leave.”

Even though I’m saying this, it seems like something big is happening, and since I have so much power, I decided to think that something like this would happen.

I was thinking of going home because they were looking for me, but since the problem has been resolved, wouldn’t it be okay to go back?

I was about to go back to the village, but decided to go home as I had originally intended.

*

When I arrived at Mr. Han’s manor in Jeokgye, I could see the corpses of ant monsters piled up.

The dried corpse of the ant was compressed in its own way, and it seemed like Mr. Han could make quite a profit if he sold it.

‘It seems my father was good at negotiating.’

If there was a problem with the transaction when I returned, I didn’t know where the force aimed at the monster would end up, so I had to do it like a sword.

The female servants deliberately walked away from the ant’s corpse, and the male servants knocked on the ant’s shell as they passed.

“Wow. How on earth did the youngest master do this…”

“So, you are a disciple of the elder King Yeom. It’s not a dragon given to a later rider, it’s a white flame, right?”

“That’s right. I can’t leave it as a later index.”

I felt proud that my helplessness had become their pride.

(Shahemoth, not yet?)

I called Shahemos just in case, but he did not answer my call.

Even though I said I would go outside with Kaena and immediately go to training, I still have to show my face to my parents…

With that in mind, I quietly looked around the manor and left.

‘Let’s go back now.’

***

At the base of Hangzhou, the gate of the Galaxy Sword and the ark of the bow met.

Even after meeting, the two could not easily open their mouths, and they were very afraid that the mysterious master might have followed them.

An absolute expert who can create strength out of thin air, an absolute expert who can cut walls like tofu, I don’t know why that expert is in the village they manage.

The two men emptied their glasses in silence for a long time.

The first to open his mouth was Moonju of the Galaxy Sword, whose face was red.

“Why… Why is it our village?”

“I don’t know either!”

Ark in the bow room also screamed under the influence of alcohol.

Fortunately, no one was surprised because she did not bring in her courtesan to talk quietly.

“You didn’t call it, and I didn’t call it either. Where did that expert come from, and what should he do?”

“You said you’d be quiet and leave, so you should just let the kids do their thing and crawl. Don’t do something stupid like contacting Baek Yeom again.”

“Haa… I’m writing my life.”

The two men emptied their glasses again until they passed out from intoxication.

***

“You’re doing well now.”

“It’s thanks to the youkai’s help.”

Even though Song Yeon-bun learned the female technique, she was unable to use the sword technique right away.

In the case of Seche, who learned female skills and was able to use sword techniques, she had the skills of a B-class mercenary, but Song Yeon was just an ordinary village woman.

Still, he told me that his body felt lighter because he had developed inner energy.

‘Since you are being held by me every night, the amount of inner energy itself is growing very quickly.’

She continued to use the black and white double wheel, yin and yang, and handed over her inner energy, and the effect was amazing.

By pouring semen containing yang energy on the courtesans, the yin and yang were in harmony, making them more beautiful and healthy. Since Song Yeon had mastered her internal energy technique, the effect was much better.

‘If you think about it, being a female protagonist is not appropriate in the current situation.’

Yeo-Gong is a martial artist who grows based on the Yin energy that a woman possesses, and I thought that achieving harmony between Yin and Yang every night like I did could be poisonous to her growth.

However, it was also unfortunate that I couldn’t tell you about the Namwon Gong (man’s original skill) or the Yeonyeom Shin Gong (連炎神功) that I knew.

The Naegongsim method known at the Global Academy was very difficult to learn, so it was difficult for me to pass it on.

‘I think it would be a good idea to leave it to an appropriate clan. Is 18 a little old?’

“Youkai? Are you there?”

“Okay. I was thinking about it for a moment.”

“Thank goodness. I thought you went somewhere.”

“I can only see myself blurry. Starting tomorrow, let’s learn swordsmanship and hone our inner strength.”

“But is the three-jae method really enough?”

“The Samjae Sword Technique containing sword energy is enough to protect the body.”

After hearing what I said, Song Yeon-bun nodded.

How will Song Yeon-bun use the power that is too much for a woman who runs a dry goods store, and the power that is insufficient to go to martial arts?

Just when I thought I wanted to see that, I heard a welcome voice.

(Master.)

(Shahemoth? Are you able to talk to me first? Is it because you just woke up?)

(I think it’s because I just woke up. But who is she? A concubine?)

(Something like disciple?)

(Really? Hehe. Master, you will be surprised when you see the new skills I have learned.)

I am very excited to see what Shahemos has learned after waking up after almost a week.
