Chapter 75 – Women in World Episode 1
“Uhm…”
I stood up slowly, rubbing my eyes. Where am I. Who am I?
As my dazed mind awoke, the surrounding scenery came into view.
‘This is…’
A gorgeous oriental space that can be seen anywhere in historical dramas.
Round tables lined up in a large hall, and people gathered in groups of twos and threes enjoying drinks and meals.
A space decorated with colorful red silk and stone ornaments that look like Haitai.
This place, overlooking the beautiful lake through the wide open window, looked like an old class inn.
However, there is a difference from the general martial arts world… There seemed to be many female martial artists.
No, if you see someone wearing something like a gi and a sword at their waist, almost all of them are women.
Originally, I thought that the martial arts people had a high male ratio… But the name of this parallel world is Yeoincheonha.
It wasn’t that strange.
I stood on the stair railing and looked at myself.
Because there was no mirror, I couldn’t see her entire appearance, but she seemed to be wearing reasonably neat clothes, and she was holding a tray in one hand.
What a tray. Could it be that I am an employee of this guesthouse… Jeomsoi? This is the first time this situation has happened.
That was when I was looking around and getting information about the new world.
“Hey! Are you out of your mind? Your order has arrived!”
Puck-
With a rough voice coming from somewhere, someone patted my back.
A man with a rugged look. He probably looks like the person in charge or the president of this guesthouse.
After quickly coming to my senses, I bowed my head and apologized.
“S-sorry.”
“Hurry up and take your order!”
“Yes!”
Following the man’s command, I quickly approached the table where the customer raised his hand.
‘Shit. Suddenly I feel sorry for Jeomsoi.’
Well… I would say it’s better than the Demon King’s Castle, where prisoners were dragged by carriages from the beginning, or the cyberpunk worldview, where people wandered around the city like beggars.
The problem is whether I can adapt to this Jeomsoi life.
“I will take your order.”
When we arrived, three female martial artists were sitting at the table.
Even though they were over the top, they all seemed to have great bodies and pretty faces. These are strong sisters who have trained their swords. For some reason, it reminded me of Jooyoung.
One of them waved his hand at me and ordered.
“Give me what I always eat.”
“!”
This is the most difficult order for me. How do I know what I always eat?
I had no choice but to ask them.
“I. I’m not sure what that is. Can you tell me?”
“What? You don’t remember your sisters?”
Shit. Did it end up like this? I scratched my head and made excuses to avoid the situation.
“I’m sorry. I… I hurt my head the day before yesterday, so I don’t remember much.”
“… Your excuse is so lame.”
“It’s true. Please believe me.”
When I put my hands together and prayed, she spoke in a cold voice as if there was nothing she could do.
“… Three bottles of bamboo leaf syrup, fish sauce, and two plates of dumplings.”
“Yes… Yes, I understand.”
I bowed my head and quickly left the table.
What should I do? It seems like they have some kind of ugly streak in them. I can feel the stinging gaze even from afar.
He seemed to be a frequent customer, but he seemed angry when I couldn’t remember him. But what should he do with me? I really don’t know.
‘But… Where is the kitchen? The counter… Where should the order be delivered?’
After receiving my order, I was lost, not knowing where to go.
At that time, my head suddenly started spinning.
‘What.’
I stumbled and leaned against the wall.
A hall crowded with guests chatting and chatting. The decorations inside the hall are insanely gorgeous. The sound of orders ringing loudly here and there.
In this chaos, I felt a little dizzy, as if I was having a panic attack. My hands and feet are getting cold and my whole body is shaking.
“Huh. Huh.”
I don’t feel well… Why is it so cold all of a sudden?
That was when I was standing still and catching my breath.
“Hey. Why are you like this today? Do you want to rummage around?”
The scary voice I heard earlier woke me up, and for a moment my cheeks felt tingly.
I lifted my eyes, holding my hot cheek in a daze.
A man with a grim face was glaring at me with his eyes wide open.
“S-sorry.”
“I picked up something that was starving to death on the street. Damn. Do you want to be killed?”
“…”
A big guy who yells at me in front of me.
But his words did not fall on deaf ears.
Everything except me recedes into the distance, and only my spirit settles downward.
My head feels blank, as if my soul has escaped, and my whole body trembles.
I… Feel sick.
It was then.
“Hey, boss. Just stop there~ I’ll listen to the customers.”
A playful voice came from somewhere, and a warm hand wrapped around my shoulder. I regained my senses in an instant.
The president asked the girl holding my shoulder, slightly calming her anger.
“Seoul… Where have you been?”
“Where are you? I went to the butcher over there. They said they were out of meat. I got a lot of it, so don’t worry.”
“… Tsk. Okay. By the way, take care of the kids below.”
“Yes, yes, don’t worry. I will tie it well.”
The woman called Seoyul placed her hands on both of my shoulders and slowly pushed them in front of me, heading somewhere.
“Shall we go and talk for a moment?”
After leaving the crowded hall, a hallway became a little quieter. It seemed like a path that only employees could use.
“Haa. Haa.”
Once I got out of the busy place and became quiet, I felt a little more at ease.
Seoyul stopped me in her hallway, and she squatted down in front of me and made eye contact with her.
“Are you okay? It doesn’t hurt?”
She asked, caressing my red, swollen cheeks. I caught my eye on a woman named Seoyul squatting in front of me.
Sparkling red eyes. She has a playful but cute face. Brown pigtails tied down with a red ribbon. She is also called Ohsage.
A girl with a cheerful and bright personality. She also seemed to belong to the guesthouse here, and she seemed to be a higher manager than me. Even the boss can’t mess with her.
“Yes. Yes.”
I answered while quietly avoiding Seoyul’s gaze.
Her thighs were visible through her slightly open clothes when she was squatting.
But… It looks like there’s something between her legs… Or something like a dagger in her pocket.
Even while I was thinking dirty thoughts and being rude, Seoyul comforted me.
“Don’t worry too much about getting slapped. It hasn’t been a day or two since the boss hit me like hell. But what happened?”
“That. That.”
I briefly explained the current situation. About the series of events I just experienced and the loss of memory.
In times like this, it’s better to just tell the truth. If you try to trick her and lie, you’ll get caught.
Also, I think this older sister, Seoyul, will listen to my honest words.
After hearing my explanation, Seoyul narrowed her eyes and asked.
“… You’re not faking it, are you?”
“Oh, no. It’s true. I don’t think I’m feeling well.”
“Okay. Just go in and rest for today. I’ll come find you after work.”
“Yes. Thank you, Seoyul.”
“Do you know where the room is?”
“I don’t know.”
“I need to guide you. Follow me.”
“Thank you.”
I followed her and arrived at a shabby, narrow room. It seemed like a place where Jeomsoys rested.
“I’m resting here, okay?”
“Yes.”
Click-
Seoyul left, and I lay down on the hard bed.
It’s not because of my mood, I really don’t feel well and feel dizzy.
I suddenly fell into the martial world and got into such trouble.
As if the pain wasn’t enough, I was even slapped in the face by the ugly boss. If it were his original body, that guy would have been cut for 1 second, but he got beaten up by that guy. Rather than being sick, I was angry at my own helplessness.
But what can you do? Right now, my powerlessness in this body is close to zero. It can only be used to seduce women.
‘It’s dangerous.’
It’s not like any other place, but Moorim is a world of the fittest.
It is a painful place for powerless civilians like me. In the end, the only way to survive here is to attract a strong woman and receive her protection.
‘But… I’m not sure if things will work out that easily.’
It was all coincidence that I received Erzsebet’s favor in the Demon King’s Castle and that I was protected in the lab as a research subject in Cyberpunk.
There was no case where I worked hard or proved my abilities. I just went with the flow, and somehow it worked out.
‘Should I just relax?’
Well, should I die? Anyway, thanks to the app and its characteristics, I am protected by a function that reverses summoning when my life is threatened.
You may suffer humiliation, shame, and pain, but you will never die.
What if you don’t die? I don’t think it will matter since I’m going back to my original body in the real world anyway.
So I squatted down on an unfamiliar bed and closed my eyes, thinking about various things.
I was anxious, and my mind was complicated, but as I closed my eyes and breathed slowly, peace came little by little.
As I was lying in bed, I suddenly fell into sleep.
*
How much time has passed?
While I was sleepy and dazed, someone opened the door and came in.
I woke up rubbing my eyes.
“Sister. Are you here?”
It seemed like Seoyul came after finishing work.
However, it was not she who came to my room.
“Is it this kid?”
Instead of the soft and cheerful voice from before, a sharp, cold voice that seemed to drip cold.
“Yes, Lord Ryeon.”
I slowly raised my head and identified the owner of the voice. A woman wearing a pure white robe. Because she was wearing a veil on her face, her appearance was not clearly visible, but just looking at her silhouette, she looked beautiful.
Chuck-
She lifted my chin with something that looked like a fan in her hand.
“Ugh.”
A woman who used her fan to turn my face back and forth and to look at my face.
She then quickly grabbed my wrist and grabbed her pulse.
Exciting-
A pure white hand, as beautiful as chalcedony, examined my acupuncture points for a moment, then let go of her hand again.
“Indeed. It’s the ultimate negative.”
When the woman at the palace made a gesture, the guard warrior standing next to her took out a purse from her arms.
Jiggle-
Courtesy boss… The grim-looking man who slapped me took the heavy bag and bowed to the woman.
“Thank you, thank you.”
“Let’s keep this matter secret until the grave.”
“Is there any question, Lord Ryeon? Hehe.”
“!”
Looking at the situation, it seemed like that damn bastard had sold me out.
“Take care of it.”
“Yes, Lord Ryeon.”
“Uh. Uh!”
Before I could respond, the guard wrapped me in a blanket, lifted me up on his shoulder, and headed somewhere.
Yes. I… Was kidnapped again.
