I Became a Porter for a Women-Only Party. 114

Chapter 114 – 114 – First Things Bring Danger

Taiga has a great task that must be accomplished. It is a greater and more important cause than not only the Taiga family but also all of the Hanghaeng Valley combined.

The husband, who came from the outside world of Hyanghwagok and Shingyo, seemed to want to prevent mass murder for the sake of his daughters. They don’t understand because they are not Tigris, Taiga, or descendants of a family founded on a mission.

Hwa-ryeon understood that her husband wanted to be a good father. The husband who only made his wife a bad mother didn’t seem obnoxious.

However, if he is not going to help Hwa-ryeon, Hwa-ryeon herself will have to be stricter with her daughters.

We can’t leave impurities in Taiga’s blood. The weak cannot enforce their will against the strong.

If you want to face the weak porter in front of Hwa-ryeon, you will have to prove that you have the strength to break the stubbornness of her mean mother.

Hualien Taiga dressed up for the first time in a long time. The entire Hyanghyang Valley was shocked and opened the way for Hwalyeon.

But not one person got out of the way. An outsider who did not have Tigris’ tail or ears was blocking the entrance to the cliff’s cupola, the only entrance to the Hwanhaeng Valley.

No one could be so rude in front of the owner of Hyanghwagok. Hualien decided to respect that courage.

“Who are you?”

“Your mission.”

Hwa-ryeon took a step back from her.

————

“Long long time ago.”

“···Do you start from there?”

“It will end much shorter than the love story between you and Eshen. You crazy bastard! Why are you talking about having two people at the same time in front of your daughter’s father?”

First. I don’t want to talk about it, but you keep asking me questions. Second. No matter how much I say it, you just understand it like a ghost.

Of course, the biggest problem would be my fault. First, I got down on my knees.

“I am truly sorry.”

“I don’t know what happens to those whom Ishtar pays attention to, so I will tolerate it. At least that’s a moderate thing! Of course, I want to slaughter them, but that’s enough. Once upon a time.”

The reason it is expressed only as a long time ago is because it has become difficult to guess how long it has been. All of the calendars and calendars that remember those times have been destroyed, so none remain.

The absence of records from a certain era means that most of the effort to preserve those records has been spent on keeping them alive. Just like you can’t afford to take care of your property while your house is burning or your ship is sinking.

Someone said that people are punished because they commit too many sins. Some people said it wasn’t our fault and that it just happened because one of the many gods went crazy.

Then, someone stabbed the people who were making such a fuss from behind and killed them, then ran away with everything they had. Just to somehow survive another day.

It was the era of the law of the jungle. It was the era of ricochets. The sky was becoming darker day by day.

Therefore, the stronger the person, the more opportunities there are.

The wealth of kingdoms destroyed by evil spirits rolls in like waves on its own, beauties who are desperate for a living fawn at their feet, and followers begging for protection flock like clouds and bow down.

It was an order that existed even before the birth of ‘Cargon Taiga’, the twentieth son born in the king’s harem.

Kargon, who had closely observed his father’s life of taking what he wanted and killing if he offended him, beat up all his brothers when he turned eighteen. And then he dragged his body, soaked with the nosebleeds of his flesh and blood, all the way to his father’s tent.

Kargon spoke frankly to his father. I’m going crazy with envy.

I guess I should enjoy a luxurious life like you.

Kargon’s father, who had learned the lesson of leaving only obedient children behind, raised a large beheading ax against his son without hesitation. The legendary ax that has drunk the blood of countless opponents, from demons from the Demon World to rival warlords seeking what belongs to his father.

Then he was beaten by Kargon with only his bare fists, and his naked body was crippled and driven out into the wilderness.

“Buying something is fun.”

The wealth, beauty, and followers that once belonged to his father quickly turned away. To the son who is grinning as he sees his father’s buttocks moving away.

A new ‘King’, 18 years old, ascended to the throne. It was Cargon’s heyday.

“If only a bastard like you didn’t suddenly show up.”

“That’s right. I’m sorry.”

And in a few days his reign came to an end. A man who appeared out of nowhere knocked down Kargon.

His opponent’s weapon was a greatsword, but he did not even draw the sword out of its hilt. In reality, he was no different from being beaten with a stick.

Kargon, who had been beaten without any excuse, first glanced around at his shocked lover and subjects. Next, he wiped the nosebleed from his face.

Then he quickly sat up and did something unthinkable for a man born strong.

Shameful begging.

“Damn it, look.”

“What?”

“It’s only been 5 days since I kicked out my hateful father. My damned father was the king for over 20 years, but I’ve only been able to do it for 5 days. I haven’t even enjoyed anything properly yet. If you’re going to take my throne, you can come back in about a month. It’s okay.”

“Didn’t you enjoy it enough? I heard from your subordinates that you spent two days eating and three days playing with your lovers.”

“That’s right. That’s why I lost because my stomach was bloated and my legs were shaking. If we fight again when I’m fine, I’ll never know.”

Kar Gon held out his hand to calm the anxious lovers. And he added as if he remembered something.

“And two days and three days? Two plus four is six. I told you I’ve been king for five days, you idiot.”

The other person just laughed. Kar Gon hastily threw up his hand.

“Cancel you idiot. Anyway, I lost, so I have no say in what I lose, but at least don’t touch my girls over there-“

“If you thought I was going to kick you out and take what’s yours, you were dead wrong.”

The opponent, who was about the same eye level as Kargon, a considerable giant, sat down face to face with Kargon, who was kneeling in exhaustion.

“First, let’s start with the full name. I am Edin. I am Edin the ‘Hero’. And I want you, Cargon Taiga.”

The Cargon group all took a deep breath. The one who was most frightened was Kargon.

“When you live in difficult times, you are bound to meet all kinds of crazy people, but I never thought that I would end up getting stabbed in the back.”

“···No. No. It’s not like that-“

“Better kill me!”

Edin, who was fiddling with the handle of his great sword, seemed to be contemplating for a moment whether he would really do it or not. And he spoke in a tone that was straining his patience.

“That’s not to say, I need a colleague to help me with my future work.”

“Yes, if you want to engage in sodomy, of course you have to find a man to help you-“

The swordsman, who could not bear it anymore, pulled out his great sword and plunged it into the ground.

Although Kargon was a fool, he was not a fool to the point of throwing away his life. Kargon looked down at the eerily sharp black blade and decided to listen to his opponent for now.

“What happened?”

“It’s very, very rough and hard work.”

“Speaking of difficulties for a noble family. How hard can that be?”

“Sometimes it will be cold like Antarctica, and sometimes it will be hot like a volcanic cave. Every day is a fight and a wandering, so there will be no time to rest. You will be hungry, you will be thirsty, you will walk to distant and unfamiliar places and lose your direction, and you will never try. “Monsters will target us, and the plague spread by the devil will peel off our skin.”

“Damn, that’s amazing. Why would you do something like that? Will you get some incredible treasure? Did the most beautiful woman ask you to marry her if you did that?”

“No way. It will be difficult to return to your lover and men. You will more than likely die on the way. And even if you go through all the dangers and finally make it, no one will thank you. There will be no joy or glory. “I wouldn’t even know what happened, let alone give you a penny because you’re amazing.”

“···Are you crazy? Then why do you do such a thing?”

“Someone has to do it.”

Edin smiled, a smile that was about a sheet of paper removed from a maniac.

“Because that’s what a hero is.”

To Cargon, who had lived a life of strong self-respect, Edin’s story sounded very unfamiliar. It left a deep impression on Cargon Taiga.

“Why do you have to come to me and ask me to do that crazy thing with you?”

“Because you are much better than the previous Tiger King you kicked out. Not only because you are better at fighting, but also because of your character as a person.”

“But why do I have to follow that crazy behavior?”

“Just follow it and don’t think about it. Then you might find out.”

“What if you don’t like it?”

“Hey. I won, and anyway, the rules of this world are that you have to do as the strong guy says.”

“Damn it, you have to tell me what you’re going to do next so I can follow it or not!”

“Getting rid of the rules of this world where you have to do as the powerful man says.”

Cargon blinked blankly. He thought the other person was truly crazy.

And within a few years, Cargon revised his assessment. Edin Eyennad was the greatest human being in the world.

He was a man who stood against all forms of evil that kill people. It was the light of order shining in the midst of hell, where civilization was collapsing and ghosts were rampant. He was the great warrior of our world, acting on behalf of the light and love of the gods who were thought to have abandoned the earth.

What Edin said was half right. Sometimes it was as cold as Antarctica, other times it was as hot as a volcanic cave, and time passed without a moment’s notice due to fighting and wandering every day.

Needless to say, there was a struggle. Demons created by the hands of the ‘Demon God’ and all kinds of evil things that were not creatures of this world blocked their path.

And the other half is wrong. He became the richest man in the world, as all the remaining countries fell and he became the owner of the only kingdom. In the only flower garden in the world that he protected, a fairy woman who received a flower crown as a gift from Edin cried out of simple joy and accepted her marriage proposal.

People in all the provinces he visited and cast out demons were grateful to him. Even those who were once kings, lords, or rich people did not hesitate to serve him as their savior. Everyone praised Edin’s noble intentions and courage, and placed him on the throne, the highest honor.

Everyone became aware of his feat. In these difficult days, such great hope is bound to spread quickly.

The gods also gave Edin’s loyal friend Kargon the power and blessing to fight evil. With the words that the whole world would call him a ‘fighter’.

The warrior Edin, the fighter Kargon. Wizard ‘Evenna’, blacksmith ‘Rezandartam’, swordsman ‘Yazin’, healer ‘Invictiana’. And numerous other colleagues, helpers and followers.

They all followed Edin’s lead and had their sights set on one noble goal.

The cause of achieving order and peace in this world from the ‘demons’.

Cargon felt fortunate to have laid down the throne.

Compared to the honor of going on a crazy journey with such a great friend, the free and carefree life of the Tiger King was too childish.

———–

The first warrior. And the first suitable candidates. And the first party.

It is an incredible story that is not told anywhere and will captivate the souls of children as young as five.

Of course, even as a 24-year-old child, I was equally intrigued.

“Is that Cargon Taiga the ancestor of today’s Taiga family?”

“Yes. My wife, Hwa-ryeon, is the ancestor of that great fighter, ‘the first comrade of the first hero.'”

When I shook my head in disbelief, one of the masked cult leader’s guards looked at me and nodded. As if they were defending it by saying it was real.

The leader, who was about to continue his explanation, paused for a moment. And he looked back for a moment.

“You are very expressive of your emotions today, even in the guest room.”

“···I apologize.”

“Anyway.”

While the masked black robes were looking at each other, the leader was shaking a little as if he was uncomfortable with his tied body.

“The story of the first Hero, of course, will not be unfamiliar to you.”

“I’ve heard about it a few times in fairy tales and songs, but I’ve never heard it in such detail. Things like the name of the hero or the composition of his comrades.”

“If you ask officials of the Armattam Empire or nobles of Summeriris, rather than officials of the Compatible Valley, you might hear a different story about the first warrior party. For example, Kargon was left out and an ancestor from an unexpected noble family was put in his place. “Some people’s nationality is secretly changed to that of their own country.”

The leader sighed through his nose.

“If you even asked the dead Barbo Lindborg, he would probably have said that he was the first warrior. The story is so varied.”

“···Who died…?”

“Barbo Lindborg. Died by the hands of Gunther Waldenhardt. Gunther even resurrected Adamantone Sunstorm with the life he extracted from him, if that terrible thing can be called a resurrection.”

“···Who lived there···?”

“I’ll explain later. If I continue what I was saying, the story I’m telling you from now on may not be the complete truth. It relies heavily on the information written in Kargon’s handwritten biography handed down to the head of Hwanhwagok.”

As I was shocked and panicked, the religious leader told me an even more embarrassing story.

“So there may be a deeper story behind Edin’s betrayal.”

“The first hero…What? Betrayal?”

“From now on, this is a secret story that will not be told anywhere, whether in Armatam or Summeriris. It is a dishonorable and profane story that has no benefit whatsoever from being known to the world. Even I will tell you that I have never told you such a story if you ask me a second time later. That’s it. Do you understand?”

“···I won’t go around making noise.”

“Good. In the end, they defeated the great evil called ‘Demon God’, who brought chaos to their era. Climbing up its spine and stabbing its head high enough to reach the sky, it stabbed deeply with the warrior’s sword forged by the blacksmith dragon Rezandartam. But Edin did not return. While the kingdom and the people were in sorrow, those close to him who traveled with him did their best to ignore the question of what happened to him. They decided to keep quiet about what happened. Like.”

The leader’s voice became lower and lower.

“A few years later, the tragedy of the kingdom doubled. This was because the rightful king who would protect them disappeared, and a great evil replaced the demon god appeared again.”

“Devil···?”

“That’s right. The person who called himself the Demon King because he inherited the Demon Dynasty but was not a god tried to overthrow the kingdom by infusing evil energy into the land and using demons to destroy the castle walls. However, in this part, Cargon Taiga threatened his children and Gasol. “I left a secret accusation in the records that were passed down.”

“No way.”

“The king of evil is Edin. He has returned to destroy what he has built. And since we have no way to do anything about him, our descendants will-“

“-In the end, we will inevitably meet him. The greatest person of our generation. And the person who has become the sin left behind by our generation. He was struggling not to show us those few lines. In the end, it came into our hands.”

Only at the moment when the cult leader’s face became thoughtful did I vaguely remember that something was wrong.

And the moment the blood spattered on the leader’s face, I looked to the side, thinking that something was seriously wrong.

Two of Blackbok’s bodyguards fell and lost their heads. When the body hit the bottom of the carriage and made a loud noise, the horses whined in surprise.

The culprit who exploded his colleague’s skull was the bodyguard in question who was strangely expressive of emotions.

··· I glanced at the cult leader’s arms tied to his chair. Did you say it is a knot that will never be undone?

While the cult leader struggled to wiggle his body free, the bastard leisurely took off his blood-splattered mask.

The face I never wanted to see appeared again. He spoke in a very different voice from when he apologized a moment ago.

“And you’ve already met him.”

“Case···?”

“Run out of the carriage, Tannhäuser-Bantay!”

It’s a full name I haven’t heard in a long time. Not only Sister and Thena, but also my neighbors and co-workers never called me by that old-fashioned name. Looks like you did a thorough background check…

The reason why I have strange thoughts is probably because of the panic that fills my brain.

Of course, the delay in reaction was not only due to fear and embarrassment. My hesitation deepened because I was worried about the religious leader. Rather than running away alone, I felt like I should at least untie that knot so I wouldn’t feel sorry to Eshen’s father.

But soon I decided that I didn’t know who I was worried about. The leader of the new religion jumped up on the chair and kicked the crazy bald bastard in the chest like an acrobat.

The eerie sound of bones breaking and muscles collapsing. Gunter was thrown into the back seat of the carriage with his eyes wide open.

The moment the carriage tilted as if it was going to overturn, I threw myself through the fluttering open door.

He rolled several times in pain and got up, just as he was about to shout for help to a guest about 300 meters away.

I hear a whistle. A spicy sensation spreads next to my ear. I looked back, filled with an unbearable sense of crisis.

The religious leader’s carriage, which was as big as most houses, was still shaking from the fierce battle. However, the coachman was sitting quite leisurely in his seat, as if he had no intention of running away.

And it was too big. The coachman showed me a rock that she was rolling between her fingers, and she flicked it with her fingers and shot it at me.

A sharp sensation spread next to her ear again. The tip of her ear was torn and blood flowed down her cheek.

The coachman, whose face was familiar to her, looked at me intently and said.

“I won’t kill you.”

“Why are you doing this to us?”

“If you follow me quietly.”

“Why are you doing this to us and me?”

“That’s what I’m saying. I don’t think you look bad…”

The coachman sighed at my question and took a deep breath from the antique-shaped cigarette pipe. Then he coughed displeasedly and blew out smoke.

I didn’t know what was inside, but it didn’t seem familiar. Maybe it’s not his.

By the time the shaking of the carriage had stopped, the driver, who had blown all the smoke out of his mouth, finally answered.

“Most of the other ‘me’s won’t be able to forgive you.”
