Iron Blood Conquers Expansion 82

Chapter 82 – Chapter 82 Seize the Market-9

Jiha, who changed into a bathrobe, went outside holding Enlil’s waist, who was exhausted and unable to move.
Enlil was breathing low with his eyes down as if he was about to fall asleep.
Iroha, the owner of her house, looked at me in amazement as I went over to the room, supporting her Enlil.

It was a face that said, “What are all these guys?”
Where in the world is that crazy guy who brings a woman to someone’s house he’s seen for the first time today and makes a fool of himself?

“Washed well.”

Jiha smiled contentedly and sat down, taking care not to let Enlil fall.

‘Now, they’ll misjudge that they can use me as a woman.’

She plants false information in Iroha just in case.
The one-eyed elf lying on his side shook the bottle he was holding in his hand.

“Looks like you’re at an age where you’re starving for women.”
“Men are always like that. So what’s the matter?”

Her exhausted Enlil, unable to open her eyes, lay her head against her subterranean chest.
She was slightly dozing.
While stroking Enlil’s head, Jiha spoke again.

“What did you drink?”
“… Hmm?”
“Enlil is too relaxed?”

Enlil is a ferocious beast, a leopard.
And this is an unfamiliar dangerous area, and Iroha’s intentions are also unclear.
Although she is tired of being held by the underground, she is not a woman who will be released.

Jiha glanced at the glass she drank before entering the bathroom.
Iroha’s drink, Jiha, drank only Enlil without touching it.

‘Is there a drug that works for Unique? No, if I generate magic, I can drive it away right away. Enlil did not know that he was drugged. In other words, it is not an ordinary medicine.’

Iroha laughed as she smoked her cigarette.

“They’re a pair that goes well beyond expectations, right? I didn’t know that Miss Enlil would have a man in her heart.”
“Will I slit your throat when you wake up?”

Enlil would not let go if he found out that he played some tricks with alcohol.
It was a warning to behave well, but Iroha took it lightly.

“It was just to relax. I never thought it would work so well with Unique. Maybe it’s because the underground army is next to me?”
“…”

It’s an underground army.
It is very natural for a college professor to call someone below him politely.
Iroha is a beauty in her 20s, but… The Gray Elves were a race that was said to have been destroyed soon after.
In other words, Iroha’s age would be immeasurable.

Iroha looked at Enlil, who leaned her head against her chest in her basement, as if she were an amusing spectacle.

“Women get nervous when they’re next to the man who gave them their heart, but did she treat her warmly while taking a bath?”
“I wonder if you came in naked too.”
“…”

Ji-ha lightly responded to her mischievous teasing.
Iroha’s reaction was a little surprised, but she laughed.

“This, even with such a lover by her side, she flirts with me right away. What a nasty man.”
“Do you have anything to ask of that wicked bastard? What do you want?”

She was a gray elf who lived while hiding the fact that she was staying in Warris.
Iroha dared to go outside and contacted the basement.
There must be a special dragon.

Iroha took her luck away.

“Protect me this way.”
“Isn’t that a skill that needs my protection?”

Iroha in front of her was said to be of normal rank, but she was clearly able to use her magical powers.
She was not an easy opponent.

‘Wordsland thinks rank equals strength. That’s too simplistic…’

Victory depends on circumstances.
Even against opponents that could never be defeated in a head-on collision, Jiha has managed to create victorious situations and achieve victory.
Iroha in front of me could have had lower combat specs than Enlil or other unique ranks.
But this woman, too, was trying to create a situation.
In a sense, the Underground was the most dangerous enemy he had ever faced.

“Protect not me, but the children under me, the guys who make a living by selling their bodies. All of Warris’ Red Light District.”
“…”

As Iroha shook her jangjuk, Jiha thought for a moment at what she said.
She knew there was a window in Warris, but she had never used the basement.
She had no money during her losing streak, and no time after gaining her skills.

“It varies by race and grade, but blue seals generally do not accept prostitution. Conversely, purple is mostly non-criminal. I despise elves in particular.”

Iroha told her about the situation in the back alley.

“Some people pretend not to know, some try to get rid of it, some close their eyes when they receive money. Warris’s entertainment district, where both camps coexist, is more complicated.”
“Why are you picking on me to ask for protection? There must be a lot of people who swallow saliva?”

Sex becomes money.
Prostitutes were an old profession on Earth.
Wordsland is no different.
The era of female superiority was created hundreds of years ago, after the Millennium War ended.

Before then, there were people who made money by selling their bodies, and they still exist.

‘And flies are always attracted to businesses that make money.’

It is common for those who say they use their fists to extort money in the name of protection money.
We also have to stab the public authorities with money.

“Because the real power of Waris is women.”

Iroha’s answer was unexpected.
Iroha pointed at Enlil, who had fallen asleep leaning on the shoulder of the basement, with a bamboo stick.

“Do you think she cares about the lives that live in this ugly, dirty place? It is nothing more than unpleasant, filthy dust.”
“…”

Enlil is a good response.
If she had brought Leticia with her, she would have turned it all over in disgust.
Iroha smiled coldly.

“The age of women over men? Unique, did the world get better because all the legends were women? Powerless women have always been trampled on, and still are. There are many women who have to sell themselves today because they don’t have the money to survive tomorrow.”

Iroha put her bottle down and shook her head.

“Life above the clouds has no interest in those who can only live by drinking muddy water on the ground. It’s good if you don’t try to burn down the whole place.”

She shook her head in the basement at her words, which were quite experienced.

“It is an emotional theory. It’s not like the two camps were so hard on their ears. If you put money first, there must be someone you can talk to, right?”
“It had to be. But she thought it was better to line up with you for now.”
“…”

She had looked into the underground and made a decision.

“What will I get if I keep this place?”
“I’ll give you money and information.”

Iroha said coldly.

“I’ll give you 20% of the profits. And we will find out and provide you with the information you want as much as possible.”
“Is it an intelligence group…”

The basement was lost in thought for a moment.
She saw it on the way, but Waris’ window was quite large.
There would be thousands of women selling their bodies, and the pinnacle of those women was the Gray Elves right in front of us.

“With that advance payment, I’ll tell you who the Blue Seal’s Unique, who is said to arrive soon, is and what his purpose is.”
“…”

He knows what even Enlil does not know.
If it were true, Iroha’s information network was very good.

“40% of profits.”
“… You’re too strong. Are you so desperate for money?”

Iroha shook his head.

“Twenty-five pennies, it’s not my greed, the kids have to eat too.”
“You said it was Munjeon City? 30%.”

After saying that, Jiha stared at Iroha.

“He approached me and made this offer. In other words, there are some tricky issues that you’ve been having trouble dealing with lately, right?”
“… Alright, 30%.”

When Iroha accepted, Jiha sang for joy inside.
Money in the future is important, but taking the initiative was more important now.

Iroha had gathered information and approached the underground, but this was the first time he had met him face-to-face.
At first glance, it is different from what you thought when you come into contact with it yourself.
Iroha had no choice but to concede while talking directly with the underground.
The basement was driven out of my mind.

“And an additional condition, don’t pay me for my kids to use it.”
“That’s not allowed.”

Iroha shook his head with a straight face.

“It’s not about money, the service won’t work, no woman likes free customers. Men will not be satisfied, and women will be quite unpleasant. Then discord will surely arise.”
“…”

It made sense.
Iroha said.

“The usage cost could have been calculated later and added separately to the bonus, but I can’t agree with a free one.”
“Okay, but tell me to treat the kids under me especially well.”

The commons must have accumulated various desires.
I needed to loosen up moderately.
Iroha shook the jangjuk.

“Even if you don’t say anything, you will be fine. Because women have no choice but to take care of a man who protects them.”

Subtly subtly, it was assumed that the basement was protecting Changgwan.
Underground was already half-hearted, so she didn’t bother to say anything.

“So what’s wrong with coming to see me?”
“Recently, gnolls from outside the country are rapidly expanding their influence in the back streets.”

The gnolls were a race with hyena heads.
The reason why they are called proper nouns, unlike other beasts, is because they have different families.

Prisoners exist as male and female.
For example, the male figure with a cat’s head and tail, and a body covered with fur.
There was a female form with the exact same appearance as a human, but with cat ears on her head and a cat tail near her buttocks.

However, only male gnolls existed.
They had to obtain offspring from women of other races, which inevitably led to friction between the races.
In addition, their disposition was tyrannical, and there was almost no tribe that liked them.
Even so, the reason why gnolls did not go extinct was because they were physically superior and had pack behavior.

“Since they are a violent race, they cause a lot of trouble at Changgwan. Even after the usage time has passed, they push themselves, beat women, and beat up pimps who try to stop them.”
“What about the constables?”
“There is not much real power, and the leader of the gnolls knows how to use his brain quite a bit. He paid a bribe to get his subordinate out, and then he harmed the store he reported to.”
“They are troublesome guys.”

After saying that, Jiha stared at Iroha.
As if Iroha had finished his explanation, he silently burned the jangjuk.
The one-eyed elf with gray skin as smooth as marble sat with one leg up and quietly smoked a cigarette.

“Why don’t you come out?”

It was a problem that Iroha could directly step forward and use his hand.
It’s clear that this woman isn’t of normal rank, and that she’s hiding her skills.

“It’s going to be more of a problem if you go out.”
“…”

Iroha also hid her true identity.
No one would have imagined that the gray elves, already known to be extinct, were living such a shabby life in the depths of a brothel.

“Why do you trust me?”

A frown passed over Iroha’s face.
It was the first time I heard about the underground gray elf today, but this was very valuable information.
The underground could have handed over the information to someone who might be looking for elves, dark elves, or gray elves.
The mere fact that Iroha showed herself was at her own peril.

‘That’s why they investigated me closely and approached me…’

The basement fully grasped the situation.
Iroha replied calmly.

“I don’t trust you. I believe that the one who was trampled at the bottom is fighting to change the world.”
“…”
“I heard the story of the elves, the death of Common. That treatment touched my heart.”

Devan’s death.
Knowing that, Iroha made up her mind.

“I don’t know if the world you will create will be better than it is now, but I don’t think it will get any worse.”
“Okay?”
“In addition, I like her skills in roasting and boiling Miss Enlil, who is known for being ferocious and poisonous.”

Enlil was now dozing on the breast of the Underworld.
Iroha smiled coldly, shaking her long porridge.
As the smoke dissipated in the silence, her subterranean nodded her head.

“Okay, tell me.”

I will contract So, it was a request to say the name of Unique who was coming to Blue Seal.
Iroha looked out of her open window without opening her mouth.

“There is a problem.”

Her underground ears couldn’t hear it, but the elf’s hearing seemed to catch the abnormality.
Jiha took care not to wake Enlil, who was soundly asleep, and then got up and went to her window.
At the end of her winding alley, a street lit up with red lights, her gray haired hyena head was beating someone.
The others around them just watched, unable to intervene.

“That’s play.”
“There are other gangs around. Can you handle it now?”

When Iroha asked coolly, Jiha laughed.
It wasn’t a big deal for her, but she had to do one more duke.

“Come to think of it, I forgot to add one more condition, I’ll have any of these street girls if I want to.”
“It is free. No woman would refuse a man if she paid, and no woman would reject a man who would protect her even if she did not pay.”

Jiha looked back at Iroha’s answer and asked.

“Are you included in it?”
“…”

The one-eyed elf had a dazed face for a moment, then shed a wry smile.

“You nasty horny man. Do you have a craving for such a strange woman?”
“The more women, the better.”

We put a wedge in the information that was spilled to induce misjudgment.
Women who sell their bodies tend to have a preconceived notion that men can manipulate their bodies as long as they allow them anyway.
There was a high possibility that the leader, Iroha, would not deviate from this category either.

Most men protest and try to prove that they are not like wolves who only want their bodies.
Conversely, Jiha is trying to trick Iroha by pretending to be such a common idiot.
I can’t completely trust this woman,
If you make them misunderstand that you have the weakness of the underground, you will be able to use it well in case of emergency.

“Because it’s unexpected… Could you give me some time?”

Iroha answered vaguely, but she didn’t mind Jiha.
The answer is probably good. The purpose is to make him mistaken for an idiot obsessed with women.

“Don’t make me wait long.”

Jiha said that and threw herself out the window.

It was time to lighten up and prove it.
The owner of this street has changed.
