Chapter 851 – 842 on the Way Back – Yulkam
After experiencing the trance, Yua’s confidence soared to her head.
That’s because it felt like I had tasted the mystery of the world for a split second. Moreover, as soon as she opened her eyes, the world looked much different.
My strength became a little stronger, and I felt like I could grasp something, like energy.
It’s an event that can shock even adults to the point of changing their thinking, but a 5-year-old experienced something like that? If you have too much confidence, you can develop a sense of pride and arrogance.
However, Hwanin did not allow Yoo Ah to be confident. No, she tore out her self-confidence, which can lead to arrogance, like weeds on her lawn.
How? With one minute of sparring.
Burbubbuk! Boom, boom!
=… Squeak.=
Maybe dad can win too? The infant, who had attacked his father with such arrogance, was thrown around by a strange spear technique that did not seem to be a human skill, and barely made a squeak before fainting.
Ah… Come to think of it, it was thanks to her dad that she experienced a trance…
Because she has that level of skill, she was able to give a mysterious experience to someone like her.
Yua, who came to her senses with a bump the size of a bell on her head, made that decision and turned her gaze not to Seon Hwan-in, but to her pretty sisters.
I don’t know about my father, but to my sisters… !
=What?=
Teuung~!
=Quack!=
Yua, who had attacked Anne with her shaking arrogance, stopped when she saw Anne’s pitiful expression, and was hit directly on the top of her head by a dough rolling pin, causing her to faint.
Kang!
=Kkuek… !=
Isilite, who was suppressing her laughter, was hit on the head with an iron ladle and fainted.
Wooooo… !
=Ha, surrender… ! Hangbook… !=
Ayoung, who looked like she was going to cry, was grabbed by her slippers and struggled until she passed out, foaming at her mouth and even urinating.
After being humiliated by her sexist older sister, Yua was extremely frustrated and squatted in the corner of her living room, sobbing.
‘I am… I’m a fool who knows nothing…’
Even the older sister named Geomhee and the older sister who is a spirit knight can hypnotize themselves into believing that they can do that, and the older sister who is a level 7 magician… She passed out after being strangled by her sister who didn’t even know how to fight.
=Infant? She won’t spar with her sister… ?=
=I’m sorry! I was wrong! Ugh… !=
Yua, who was frustrated, burst into tears at Baek Ryeo-gang’s question.
Baek Ryeo-gang was embarrassed by the sight of the infant crying, and Yu Lepa held back her laughter while looking at the infant.
=I was preparing in case Yua asked to spar with me too, but I was disappointed?=
=Are you my sister? You’re not good at close combat.=
Yurpa, who was shaking several amulets, playfully shrugged his shoulders in response to Ayeong’s question.
=It’s a couplet, right? If they were at the level of girls, they would be no match for them, but if they were at the level of toddlers~ I tried to make them experience a lot of things that they can’t experience normally~.=
=Uuuuu… !=
Finally, Ryuhi, who smiled bitterly as he watched Yua weeping, comforted his son by giving him a warm hug, and Hwanin continued to give advice to Yua, who had finally stopped crying in her mother’s warm embrace.
“Infant.”
=… Yes…=
“If you were me now, you would be one of the three strongest men of your age on the continent. So to speak, that is all.”
Although he largely inherited Hwanin’s martial qualities, he had only been holding a weapon for a little over a year at the age of five, and had not even received systematic training.
If we expand the category to the world of adults, warriors as young as infants are as common as sand on a white sand beach.
“That’s why consistent training and discipline are more important than anything else. If you become as conceited and arrogant as you just did, your efforts will naturally decrease, and your growth will stop, or you will regress.”
=…=
“Do you understand? “Anyone who does not discipline and cultivate himself with humility is only a third-rate person, no matter how strong he is.”
The infant, who was burying her face in her mother’s chest, looked at her patient with puffy eyes, then slowly got up and picked up her spear.
And I slowly did the stabbing, swinging, and slashing that Hwanin had told me to do… But it definitely started to repeat itself.
His ears were a little hot as if he was embarrassed, but his expression no longer showed frustration or gloom. All that is visible is firm resolve and will.
Hwanin watched Yua with a small smile on his face. Until the sun sets.
And that night. After the sun set, a welcoming feast was held with all the village people gathered.
Originally, it was thought that only one bottle of alcohol would be enough for the villagers to eat their fill, but with Hwanin’s suggestion, the size was greatly increased.
Enough meat that everyone can eat until they are full. And enough alcohol to get you drunk.
Several pigs, sheep, chickens, etc. Were caught, and Hwanin paid a high price for the livestock.
That wasn’t enough, so she opened the coffin of treasure and took out a large amount of demonic beast meat, and Anne also took out most of the alcohol she had saved to drink lightly.
That alone is enough for 500 people to eat until they are full.
Of course, the village people prepared the food for the feast with bright faces.
“Although the village has grown, there is less of a feeling that people are better off than before.”
=I think it’s the difference between a place with a labyrinth nearby and a place without. At least if it’s close to a city, it will serve as a passageway… This is the limit of a village with no labyrinth and no special products…=
“…”
Even if the village had grade 4 and 3 warriors, grade 5 holy magicians, and grade 3 mystics, the village was not wealthy.
As Ryuhi said, there is nothing that can serve as a growth engine.
The Roatings Jungle is close enough for livestock farming, so there is a high possibility that livestock will be taken over, and the land is barren for farming, making large-scale cultivation impossible.
Even if you force it, all you can do is invite a monster or demon.
If we wanted to build a fishing ground, it would be impossible in Olzot because there are more monsters and beasts than other lakes.
Fortunately, Yua has been steadily traveling outside the village to secure meat, but to put it another way, the story is that Yua alone can roughly hunt for meat in the vicinity.
Thanks to this, no one was starving, but no one ate three meals a day.
Usually, I eat a full breakfast, eat a moderate lunch, and eat fruit or something left over from breakfast for dinner.
It is not for nothing that villagers or villagers who have awakened their profession advance to the city.
There is a reason for the above, but it is also because if you stay in a village or village, they will somehow put you undercover and prevent you from leaving.
Ryuhi and her sisters are in a similar situation.
Immediately after awakening, I formed a party and went to fight to stabilize the surroundings, but after the surroundings became stabilized, I left the village less often.
Because Ryuhi is a valuable holy magician to the village, the level 3 warrior is a blacksmith, the level 3 mystic is lacking in combat ability, and the level 4 warrior is the village’s vigilante captain.
As a result, smiles did not leave the faces of the village residents at the fact that they were able to eat their fill of alcohol and meat for the first time in a long time while the banquet was being prepared, and as night fell and a large wood fire was lit in the middle of the village, the atmosphere became even brighter than when Hwanin first came to Yulkam. It heated up greatly.
People dancing with excitement. People playing musical instruments. People singing.
“…”
Hwanin looked at the villagers laughing and chatting and the lovers playing in the gap, then quietly drank his drink.
This banquet was a kind of apology offered by Hwanin to the village people.
When Yua grows up a little and becomes as tall as an adult, she will go on a trip, and Ryuhi and her three sisters will also go on that trip.
No, Hwanin wrote a hand to follow.
‘In a few years, Yua will go on a trip… ‘Aren’t you anxious about a seven- or eight-year-old traveling alone?’
‘No matter how smart and clear-headed Yooa is, he is still young. There are a lot of bad guys in the world who try to take advantage of young or immature children…’
‘Hmm. If it were her, she would give Yua a great treasure as a gift before she left. Wouldn’t it be dangerous for a child to walk around alone with such treasure?’
… In this way, the infant’s need for a guardian on her journey was encouraged.
Looking at the thoughtful faces of the women among the village people, it is clear that such encouragement has exceeded its goal.
If four people, including Yu, leave Yulkam, Yulkam will return to the small, poor village it was before. If you are unlucky, like Linden Village, the village itself may be attacked by monsters and erased.
Therefore, this banquet was Hwanin’s apology to the village people.
The next day after the banquet late at night. Yulkam had a pretty unpleasant guest.
=Keuhum! Hello! Is there anything!=
=… What is this pig-like voice?=
Anne, who was watching Huini and Ennel’s training in the backyard, frowned at the unpleasant voice she had never encountered while traveling, a voice full of fat on the vocal cords.
Just hearing her voice gave me the impression that she was a greedy and corrupt nobleman, which she hated the most.
Enel, who had been practicing her swordsmanship that Isil Rite had taught her, sighed and lowered her sword.
=Ah… That nobleman is here again…=
= Noble family? Is that fat pig a nobleman?=
Anne, who was hiding behind the house without showing herself, looked towards her front door and saw what looked like a real boar standing there with silk wrapped around her body, showing off.
My eyebrows naturally furrow. With five layers of fat under the chin folded like that, the pig I ate yesterday must have gained less weight than that guy.
=Yes. He comes every two or three months and tries to take Ryuhi’s older sister away. They do this to us too, and it really annoys me. =
Although her personality has become more refined as she gets older, Ini, who is still simple and shy, shows her wolf fangs and growls. Enel then stops Ini and pleads with Anne to be careful of what she says.
At that moment, the door opened and Ryuhi appeared and spoke in a quiet voice.
=Ryuhi, the village chief of Yulkam, sends greetings to the Don Salo clan.=
=Oh, Miss Ryuhi! Even today, her beauty is unrivaled! It’s as elegant and beautiful as Allzot’s forget-me-nots!=
=I don’t know what to do with praise…=
=Uh-huh-huh. It’s a compliment~ As I always say, this body is just putting the truth into words! Yes, today I really want to hear the answer to the recommendation I made earlier. What do you think? Have you made a decision?=
Anne frowns slightly and mutters to herself as she tries to welcome Ryuhi as her concubine.
=That’s not good…=
After watching Yua’s early morning training, the master followed Yua on her morning hunt.
It’s a good thing he was away and didn’t see that, but on the other hand, if he came back at the right time and saw that…
‘… What happens?’
You have to have experienced something like molestation at some point to know! When I think about it, I don’t think I’ve ever had that kind of unpleasant experience while traveling with the master.
Is it because the governor cares?
Still, she is not the kind of person who would be quiet after seeing the woman who gave birth to her son being harassed by such a bastard.
Fortunately, Hwan-yeon was harassed by the spirit last night and is still sleeping comfortably…
Anne thought for a moment and was startled when she felt Isil Litte’s presence in her house heading toward the doorway with an evil aura.
Since you’re not even showing your aura, it’s 100% going to be a hassle! He might really cut them into pieces!
Anne realizes that she has to step up here, and she appears in the scene where the piglet is trying to reach for Maak Ryuhi’s wrist.
Spreading the aura of a 7th grade spirit knight.
=… Hey, you bastard. What are you doing right now? =
Don, who was trying to grab Ryuhi’s delicate wrist when he heard her bloody voice, turned his eyes towards him and his eyes widened.
The same was true for Don = Salo’s second and third level escorts.
It’s an aura where light particles float around and spread brilliant light, and if it’s that dense… Level 7 rare job?
Why is a person like that in a corner like this?
Hiss — Anne took out the Hammer of Punishment from her space bag, filled the head of her hammer with her phase power, and slammed the hammer, which had turned into a beacon of light, onto the ground —! She snapped and growled again.
=Are you ignoring what I say now?=
It was only a light photo, but Don felt the vibration spreading beneath his feet. = Salo became thoughtful and threw up his hand.
=Ah, ah, no! Ignore it!=
A Fleur woman. Her height, flowing silver hair, and even her appearance are nothing short of noble. Moreover, if the concentration of the aura seems to be sufficient for level 7… It could be a nobleman from Marianol!
It was the moment when Don=Salo guessed Anne’s identity in an instant.
Dalkak—
The door to the village chief’s house opened, and Isilite, radiating a cold energy as if forming thin ice, appeared, drawing the jet-black magic sword Dubril.
Anne broke into a cold sweat.
Why are you so angry?
There is no way they would get into trouble because of such a noble person. In a few days, I will be visiting Nionebres.
However, if trouble breaks out with the nobles here, it is the villagers of Yulkam who suffer.
Isn’t it possible for that guy to come and cause trouble after they leave to get revenge?
‘… No, but why is he living like that!’
It’s like encountering an enemy!
… Uh? Enemy? Wait a minute, Iseul was with Luke. And she was originally active in the northern part of the country, but she moved to the central area and tried to steal, but was caught by the governor…
What was the reason for moving to the central region?
=With money. The father of Don Saloman, a first-class noble from the northern small town of Angelfeld, and the head of the large village of Saulo. Right?=
=Uh… Well, that’s true… Who is this lady… ?=
Noble family… Father? Direct descendants of the noble family… ?
… That pig is that bastard!
When Anne realized why Isilite was killing her, she panicked and quickly threw her body away, blocking Isilite’s path.
=Anne, get out of the way.=
=Hold on, hold on! If you cut them into pieces now, it will become a huge nuisance to the master! After the master comes back, get permission and do it! Huh?!=
=…=
Isilite, who was trying to push Anne out of her way, suddenly stopped.
It is thanks to the magic sentence that has a special effect on Isilite, her hwanin, ‘It annoys the hwanin.’
When Isilite’s life faltered, Anne shouted at her house.
=Bell! Oh, my! Come down and take some dew with you!=
=Yes? What happened… Huh?=
=… ?=
Baek Ryeo-gang and A-yeong, who were resting in a room on the second floor, popped their heads out to see what was going on when Anne called, and then her eyes widened.
Why is Lee Seul so angry?
=Hurry!=
=Uh, yes!=
=Yes, yes… !=
Anne, who had let Isilite in after making a bit of a fuss, closed her door and let out a small sigh.
When she looks behind her, the face of a puzzled pig catches her eye.
Of course… Ugh. At least I, the conscience of the group, should step forward…
=Ryuhi, you are in too.=
=Yes? Ha, but Anne…=
=It’s okay. Do you trust me?=
=Yes…=
Anne, who had let Ryuhi into her house, sighed again and treated the Pope privately for a moment in her Holy Knight’s cloak and passage. Then, she took out the white badge of Holy Knight she had received from her bag and placed it on one of her shoulders.
She said.
=With money. You know your sins, right?=
=… Now, wait! Wait for a sec! Sir Anne seems to have misunderstood something, but with this money, I swear by the sign of the Land God Church that I have never committed any illegal acts against the chief of Yulkam, nor have I forced anyone to do anything!=
=Noisy!=
Wow!!
=Hi!?=
With Anne’s angry cry, the (hammer) of heaven strikes the ground again, and the earth bursts out like an explosion, striking Don=Salo and the guards.
Money = Salo rolling down a shallow slope, screaming, screaming, screaming, as if it had been hit by a tsunami of earth.
Anne, who deliberately pushed Don = Salo away from her village chief’s house to avoid provoking Lee Seul, struggled as she walked towards it.
How should I package that, so the master will be less angry? …
At that time, Hwanyeon in human form flies by like a ghost and asks from her side.
“Anne, why is that pig putting in so much effort?”
=Huh? Did you wake up?=
“I woke up to the sound of you hitting the ground. So what’s going on?”
Anne strokes her eyebrows and explains to Hwan-yeon that she missed the beginning of the incident because she was sleeping.
= He’s trying to molest Ryuhi and make her his concubine, and it seems like she’s the same nobleman who tried to subdue Iseul-i in the past. =
“Ah… Really? “If Hwanin returns, they are dead.”
=No, it would be difficult if I died. Either die or get hurt here. A small northern city would immediately send an army to try to push out Yulkam?=
“Then just blow up that small town too.”
=Hey…=
As Anne frowned, Hwanyeon giggled.
“It’s just a joke, I called Hwanin, so he’ll be back in a bit. So wouldn’t it be better to catch them before they run away?”
At her point, she turned her head and, sure enough, saw a pig covered in dirt and running away.
That white, pink, light, and unpleasant carriage over there must be that pig.
=Inhale!=
—Kwakwang!!
Anne, holding the (hammer) of punishment and jumping up like a bullet on her earth, falls on her carriage and breaks her into pieces.
Anne, who was surprised by the impact and consoled the horse that was jumping up and down, let out a low growl, releasing her anger like a wave at the piglet, who was sitting down as if her legs had given out.
=If I run away this time, I will fall on top of you. If you don’t want to die, stay quiet. Do you understand?=
Money flowing in and out of breath = Salo nodded her head urgently, feeling her pants getting wet.
