Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 174
Episode 174. Commissioner’s Mission
“Brother So Ju-yeom, I am here.”
It’s still extremely awkward.
I would say it feels like my hands and feet are shriveling.
However, this tradition of sworn brothers is very common in martial arts.
‘If you want to survive, you have to get used to it. ‘What can I do?’
Sojuyeom responded.
“Uh oh. “A younger brother has arrived.”
You repeat something twice.
But as expected, the atmosphere is unusual.
Han Ibi decided to take the initiative and relieve the burden on her heart.
“older brother. Please feel free to tell me. “It’s okay if things don’t work out.”
Sojuyeom said.
“Thank you for saying that. First of all…”
Han Yi-bi swallowed her saliva and looked at So Ju-yeom.
“…Currently, there are no seats left in Cheonseong Palace.”
The sea I expected based on the expression.
Han Ibi gathered her thoughts and said with a smile.
“okay. older brother. “Thank you for your hard work because of me.”
‘Now that things have come to this, I guess I have to find another way.’
At that time, So Ju-yeom said.
“But…”
The two people’s eyes met again.
“…There is space here in Yeohwaru.”
Han Ibi, who did not understand for a moment, blinked for a moment and then spoke.
“yes? “What do you mean?…”
So Ju-yeom said with a rather serious expression.
“Actually, this is a big secret, but since you are my brother and not another person, I will tell you.”
“Thank you for trusting me that way.”
“Our Yeohwaru… as your brother noticed, is actually a member of Cheonseong Palace.”
yes.
I’m sorry, but that’s why I came.
Other than that, isn’t there something more hot and secret?…
But Han Ibi said while pretending to be very surprised.
“I doubted it, but it turned out to be true.”
Sojuyeom said.
“So to speak, Yeohwaru here is actually the living base of Cheonseong Palace.”
“Oh, it turns out that’s how things work.”
Let’s not hesitate and get to the point quickly.
“As the situation is like that… naturally, some of Cheonseong Palace’s disciples will reside here.”
A thought passed through Han Ibi’s head at that time.
‘ah! What Su Ruju is saying now is to ask me to come into Luhwaru. Anyway, if you are recruited to Yeohwaru, you will automatically be admitted to Cheonseonggung. However, it is difficult to complete the mission if you are not at the main base of Cheonseong Palace…’
So Ju-yeom spoke again when Han I-bi remained silent.
“Of course, I have no intention of forcing it.”
Han Ibi thought for a moment and said.
“In that case, there will be almost no need to come and go with people from Cheonseong Palace’s main base.”
Then So Juyeom laughed and said.
“As expected, you are more ambitious than you look. “Are you worried about that?”
Han Ibi said while scratching her head with an embarrassed expression.
“I guess you could say that if you can’t see something, it goes away.”
So Juyeom said with a somewhat playful expression.
“Even if you work within Yeohwaru, you must enter the Cheonseonggung grounds at least once a month to attend meetings.”
Han Ibi’s eyes sparkled.
“Oh, I see.”
“And sometimes, when I’m busy, you’ll have to go on my behalf. Oh, of course, this will only be possible after receiving recognition from Cheonseong Palace. “Because we never let just anyone in.”
There seems to be a little hope.
“yes. I will do my best! By the way… my heart starts pounding just thinking about being able to visit Cheonseong Palace, which I have always kept close to my heart.”
Actually, I feel like I might get caught.
“ha ha ha. You’ll get a lot of attention every time you go in. “The leaders of Cheonseong Palace are all very interested in our Yeohwalu’s performance.”
“I think that’s natural.”
There is no business when it comes to money.
At that time, So Juyeom clapped his hands and said,
“Then Han Brother. Would you accept this brother-in-law’s offer?”
Han Yi-bi slowly walked towards Soju-yeom with a look of concern on her face.
A movement to give an even more dramatic effect.
Han Ibi said with a serious expression.
“great. It’s truly an honor for me. “I will remain here at Yeohwaru and take care of my brother.”
Then So Juyeom nodded and smiled as if he was satisfied.
“ha ha ha. good. “One younger brother will take on the position of ‘Jeong Hoe-soo,’ who has been carrying out this task until now.”
“Oh, come to think of it, I’ve only heard your name the whole time and haven’t seen you once. “But where has he gone?”
“He told me to return to Cheonseong Palace. “I haven’t been able to handle things properly lately.”
“Ah yes. Blessings to Cheonseonggung….”
Then a thought suddenly occurred to me.
‘what! Then there was a seat at Cheonseong Palace, right? Yikes…’
Just like that, Han Ibi looked at So Joo-yeom’s shamelessly smiling face.
Then, a clear and beautiful sound suddenly resonated in my ears.
Tiriring.
[Main Quest Occurrence: Gain the trust of the Cheongseong Palace headquarters through the successful operation of Yehwaru.]
[Reward 1: Strength +20, Strength +15, Agility +10, Wisdom +20, Charisma +25]
[Reward 2: Cheonseong Palace monthly meeting Access permission to attend is granted.]
[Reward 3: There is an unknown reward.]
Huh? What is this?…
Let’s talk in numbers. Please with numbers.
What kind of mission is this?
It was then.
Tiring.
[Advice: Yeohwaru’s customer attraction and sales performance, as well as its competitive advantage over neighboring Giru, can directly lead to the trust of Cheonseonggung leadership.] * * * The official title given to Han Ibi is the director of
Yeohwaru
. ).
‘I’m a commissioner…’
It was a title that made me think I had to be a civil servant.
It’s because he has to comprehensively manage the main hall, which can be said to be the symbol of Yeohwaru… Anyway, according to
So Ju-yeom, the position of the head of Yeohwaru is actually the same as that of the heads of clans within Cheonseong Palace. .
So, quite high status.
However, it is obvious that he will not be treated properly.
Independent units are usually treated poorly…
Moreover, the position of chief has quite a lot of work to do.
First, he had to manage the troublesome ronin guarding Giru.
Since it was alcohol-related, accidents were bound to happen every day.
In addition, he had to help the courtesan, who could be said to be the leader of the courtesans, and take care of the other courtesans.
And most importantly, sales.
Giru does not belong to Luju, but belongs to Cheonseonggung.
Therefore, all of my income had to be paid to Cheonseonggung, except for my monthly salary and the cost of food materials.
Cheonseong Palace operated a total of three towers around the Silk Road, and they always suffered from fierce, invisible competition.
That’s not all.
Not only the food ingredients, but also the purchase of alcohol and the duties of procuring courtesans…
After hearing the explanation, Han Ibi was almost sighing.
The title of ‘Chief Commissioner’, which had a superficial appearance, was in fact similar to Lu Zhu’s chief of staff.
‘Could it be that he’s trying to pamper himself with the excuse of being his sworn brother?’
Although she was worried for a moment, Han Ibi thought that she had at least a clue to enter Cheonseong Palace, so she decided to forget everything and sleep to her heart’s content.
There was no longer any need to sleep in the guest room.
I inherited the chief’s only quarters.
The belongings of Jeong Hoe-soo, the former commissioner, were quickly cleaned out.
It wasn’t as fancy as other guests’ rooms, but it was spacious and clean.
This is pretty good.
He covered himself with a nice-smelling blanket and fell asleep peacefully for the first time in a long time.
And the sound of breathing…
The sound of breathing fills the room.
Deep and regular breathing.
Han Ibi was proof that I had reached the level of a master.
And this means that the five senses have become extremely developed and sensitive.
Is it because of that?
Han Ibi’s eyes opened brightly.
Blades pouring down in an instant.
Just as a sharp blade shining in the moonlight was about to split Han Ibi’s head.
There was nothing more to think about.
He lifted the sword into two fingers and placed the blade between his fingers.
The thing in front of me is a mysterious black masked person.
The eyes looking through the hole were full of confusion.
It was then.
Tiriring.
[Surprise quest occurs: Defeat the invaders of Yeohwaru.]
[Reward: Strength +10, Strength +10, Dexterity +15, Wisdom +10, Charisma +5, Reputation +20]
At that moment, the masked man used his strength to pull out the sword stuck between Han Ibi’s fingers. gave it
But the sword did not move.
From the perspective of the masked person, it was like going crazy and jumping around.
He pulled the sword, increasing his strength even more desperately.
It was then.
Han Ibi suddenly lost her strength.
The man lost his balance and tilted backwards.
Han Ibi takes advantage of that opportunity and instantly raises her upper body and pushes away the blade.
Then, the pulling force of the masked person and the pushing force of Han Ibi with her fingers were added.
The blade accelerates and bounces like a dart.
Phew.
With an eerie sound, the masked man’s sword split his chest.
Warm blood burst out like a fountain.
Han Ibi said with an expression of regret.
“Oh. “This is a newly cleaned room…”
I saw the masked person walking backwards helplessly.
Han Yi-bi quickly approached him and took off his mask.
“Yes? “It’s my first time seeing this face.”
The face of a man who seemed lost in embarrassment as well as extreme pain.
Han Ibi said to him.
“hey. “What on earth are you doing?”
But there is no way to answer.
Han Ibi clicked her tongue and muttered.
“Tsk tsk tsk. Oh no… it’s a failure in power control. “I should have checked the back of the boat.”
As the man sprawled on the floor began to breathe,
Han Ibi suddenly had a thought.
‘huh? Isn’t this enough to defeat it? Why can’t I hear the tirring sound effect?’
He looked puzzled and checked the sudden mission again.
[Surprise Quest Occurs: Repel the invaders of Yeohwaru.]
For a moment, Ibi was just startled.
Apparently the system used the plural ‘intruders’ rather than ‘intruder’.
“So Luju!”
Han Yi-bi hurriedly got up and started running toward Su Ju-yan’s sleeping quarters.
Thank goodness it wasn’t that far away.
Thanks to Gyeong-gong, Han I-bi arrived in front of the bedroom in an instant.
The door was closed.
‘Was it unfortunate?’
Still, I have no choice but to check.
He flung open the door and went inside.
Then, black shadows filled the bedroom.
A total of four masked people were there.
Sojuyeom has already woken up.
He was calmly watching the masked men pointing their swords at him.
He said to Han Ibi.
“Uh oh. “A younger brother has arrived.”
Han Ibi answered.
“That’s right. older brother.”
As soon as she finishes speaking, Han I-bi steps on the Bagua and runs away in an instant.
The masked man behind him noticed and brandished a huge sword.
However, Han Yi-fee stepped on the counter and shook her body slightly to avoid it…
and then grabbed the man by the collar and slammed his head into the wall.
thud.
With a loud noise, the man’s mask became stained with blood.
Then, the two masked people rushed at Han Ibi at the same time.
One sword and one ax split the space.
However, Han Ibi’s body movements were completely out of nowhere…
Instead of avoiding the attack, she was rushing towards them quickly.
So the two masked people couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
And…
the chin.
Surprisingly, the arms of the two people holding the weapons were grabbed by Han Ibi at the same time.
Tdu-duk!
“Ahh!”
“Ugh!”
Screams erupting at the same time.
Yes.
Han Ibi quickly twisted her hands and broke their wrists.
But it didn’t end there.
The moment he quickly passes between the two masked people.
The blades of both Han Ibi’s hands instantly hit the uvula of the two people.
So I can’t even scream.
Tears poured out of the eyes of both people due to the excruciating pain…
but there was nothing they could do but fall to the floor and cry.
At that time, Han Ibi discovered it.
So Ju-yeom said that there was a blue blade in front of So Ju-yeom’s collar….
So Ju-yeom said.
“Hoesu… did you really have to do this?”
Then the masked man’s eyes began to fluctuate violently.
he muttered.
“No… how…”
So Ju-yeom said with a grin.
“It’s not easy to fix bad hair. “If you decided to sneak in, shouldn’t you have hidden your weapons?”
Yes.
A red dragon decoration adorns the handle.
At that moment, Jeong Hoe-soo, the masked man and former head of Yeohwaru, suddenly became angry.
“You’re like this every day. We’ll see if you can flutter like that in hell!”
At the same time, Jeong Hoe-soo’s sword plunged straight into the nape of So Ju-yeom’s neck.
