Chapter Index

    Approximately three months have passed since Namgung Hwaran declared that she was pregnant.

    In the meantime, I continued my life by learning the basics of the monarch sword formation during the day and injecting baby seeds into Namgung Hwari orchids in the evening.

    However, maintaining that kind of life was slowly approaching its limit, and the time to return to reality was approaching.

    This was because Namgung Hwaran, who had been threatening to get pregnant every night, was looking a little gloomy as there was no news from the ship for three months.

    It was only three months before she really decided to become pregnant. However, we had been together for a longer period of time and there was no sign of pregnancy, so it was no wonder she was sullen.

    “I thought it wouldn’t be easy to get pregnant because of my constitution, but the news is still very late. I have to give birth to a child to my father and Gong Sang… ”

    “Don’t worry. You will definitely be able to give birth to a healthy child. Not much time has passed yet.”

    Given the historical background, it was difficult to convince people that it was azoospermia. So, from the husband’s perspective, it was currently best to comfort Namgung Hwaran in that way.

    Still, my father-in-law and I never mistreated her because of the baby. So Namgung Hwaran didn’t look like he was suffering mentally, other than looking a little disappointed.

    Instead, at night, he just tried harder to steal my baby seed.

    ‘Thanks to this, I used to fall asleep because of the pleasure, but now I’m used to it and it’s changed to the point where I collapse from exhaustion.’

    However, even if I got used to it, it was difficult to handle my physical strength. It was fortunate that she was a member of the Namgung family, so she was able to frequently eat healthy diet and herbal medicine. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have felt quite tired just from the couple’s activities.

    And recently, Namgung Hwaran was also diligently training martial arts to increase his physical strength and become healthy. It was to support my physical strength, and also because even if I got pregnant, if the mother’s body was weak, the baby could be at risk.

    The martial arts she learned were among the ice techniques taken from Bingeumgok, the inner gongsim method called Glacier Heart Gyeong (氷河心經) and the hand technique called Bingcheonbaekoksu (氷天白玉手).

    ‘Both martial artists were ice masters of rising rank that are rarely found in the central plains, proving that the rumor that Ice Demon was the illegitimate son of the North Sea Ice Palace was true.’

    Namgung Hwaran’s constitution of Gueumsinmaek and high-level ice skills worked synergistically, so the speed at which Namgung Hwaran learned martial arts was very fast.

    In addition, Namgung Hwa-ran also took the inner tablets of spiritual substances obtained from the Haomun Bonyang branch.

    I don’t know how the expiration date applies to elixirs, but since I obtained an appropriate level of ice power, there was no reason to keep storing it.

    There was an unexpected fact revealed in the process: the inner stone was a precious gem called Sobingjeong (小氷精).

    Ice crystals.

    It is the treasure of the North Sea Ice Palace and the elixir that Bai Qian tried to steal in the original work.

    Compared to the elixirs of the central plains, it can be said that Daehwandan of Shaolin, Jasodan of the Hwasan faction, and Taechungdan of the Shaman faction are of similar status, but for those who have learned the ice ball, it is the ice crystal that has even more value.

    That was the reason why the North Sea Ice Palace treated ice crystals as something of a novelty.

    However, the Naedan we obtained is an elixir that is slightly inferior to the Ice Crystal, and is at the level of a Summoned Dan in Jungwon style.

    At first, I thought it was just an ordinary Naedan.

    I was able to find out the identity of the inner circle only after reading a book written by Baek Geon in Bingeumgok that described the elixir.

    In that book, various elixirs suitable for ice gong experts appeared, and the description of the small ice tablet in it was exactly the same as the internal medicine we obtained.

    According to the explanation, Naedan and small ice crystals eaten by Namgung Hwaran were one of the ingredients of ice crystals.

    ‘They said it was the inner altar of a spirit creature called Han Cheon-jo.’

    Of course, although such information was provided in the book, it did not describe the method and additional materials used to create ice crystals. However, I was only guessing that it was made by adding other precious elixirs to small ice crystals.

    Since it was a story about a mysterious object from the North Sea Ice Palace, the contents of the book could not be blindly trusted, but considering that the location of Naedan and the place where the book was obtained were far away from each other and had no connection at all, it was not completely unreliable.

    ‘At least it’s called a small ice crystal, and it’s an inner layer that’s so effective that it can be assumed to be a material for ice crystals.’

    Indeed, the effect was so real that Namgung Hwaran, who ate Naedan and practiced Binggong, was able to rise to the top level in an instant. This was thanks to the excellent synergy between the effect of Naedan and the newly learned ice ball.

    ‘Anyway, I plan to go out into the real world and treat my azoospermia before I come back to Tuseonhyuphaengrok. Namgung Hwaran’s worries will soon be resolved.’

    Once I got pregnant, I didn’t have to worry about the rest.

    I was confident that I had enough energy to get pregnant, and if I used nanobots, I could care for the fetus so that it could grow healthily.

    Fortunately, I was able to complete everything I set out to do over the past three months.

    I learned the basics so that I could continue training in the Emperor Sword style on my own, and I learned a lot of small Neigongsim techniques and registered them as souvenirs.

    It was time to return to reality.

    ***

    [‘Tusunhyeophaengrok’ stops the world.]

    [Settlement of travel compensation.]

    [Basic compensation: 1400 mileage]

    [Achievements achieved: Leading role in taking over the dark poetry, hater of the Sect, supreme master, acquisition of friendly forces, ascension to the Lord of Harmony, metamorphosis of Hwan-gols, killing of Palma x2, extinction of Demonic Clan tribe x2, change of character’s fate x5, picking of beehives, birth of phantom thief, Soga State appointment, … … .]

    [Additional achievements: [Extrasensory perception – high-speed thinking], [Multi-purpose nanobot – entity name Maria], [Biological computer], [System – Tower transferor] Baggage registration]

    [Medium compensation: 116,400 mileage]

    [Interim evaluation: The tester succeeded in hiding his identity by annihilating the tribe of the Demonic Cult. However, the Demonic Church has suffered too much damage and is preparing its next move to find the evil beast. The tester thought that the wounded beast would be careful in its movements, but the beast chose to jump out of the cave it was in and kill the hunter who struck the spear.]

    When I returned to reality, I gaped when I saw the intermediate reward.

    Perhaps because he had surpassed two levels and caused great damage to the Demonic Cult, he had become a mileage rich person in an instant.

    Of course, there was something written in the mid-term evaluation that seemed to warn against the actions of the Demonic Cult, but I wasn’t particularly worried.

    That’s right, the Demonic Cult was now in a situation no different from having one of its arms cut off.

    ‘What can the Demon Cult do?’

    If he was clumsy, he could sneak into Cheonsan with the key and kill the remaining masters.

    Even if that wasn’t the case, the current reality of the Demonic Cult was that if you messed with political faction forces wrongly, you could face a big disaster. At least, it was clear that Namgung Hwa-ran would have enough time to give birth to children and take care of herself after returning to Tuseonhyeophaengrok.

    After worrying about the future, I checked the list of souvenirs.

    [souvenir]

    -[Extrasensory perception – high-speed thinking]

    -[Telos – Ignis]

    -[Martial arts – Thunder Emperor God Attack, Changgung Great Extension Attack, Heavenly Palace Fire Wall Attack, Thunder Strike, Heavenly Wind Mind Technique, … see more.]

    -[Multi-purpose nanobot – entity name Maria] (100%)

    -[Biological Computer]

    -[System – Tower Transferor]

    -[Dew of Yggdrasil]

    Nothing else has changed, but a more button has been added to the martial arts section. When I clicked on it, the names of the newly initiated martial artists were displayed.

    열양기공 계열의 열화연무(烈火燃舞), 자양신공(紫陽神功), 번양공(燔陽功), 일양번천신공(一陽翻天神功), 적양신공(赤陽神功), 멸양기공(滅陽氣功). Yin-han Qigong series of Glacier Heart Sutra, Cold Heart Gong, Cold and Snowy Gong, etc…

    Although the achievements were all at an entry level, not even close to being able to practice martial arts, it was a list that made one’s stomach full just by looking at it. In the first place, my purpose was not to learn these and use them as martial arts, but simply to register them as baggage. If it was registered only as a souvenir, it would be of no use.

    Perhaps thanks to my constitution, I was able to get into Yeolyang Qigong by memorizing the nine points and concentrating a little. Thanks to this, I was able to register so many deep attacks while focusing on learning the Emperor Sword form.

    And while I was smiling happily, there was a voice that I had been hearing from before.

    -master? Why aren’t you saying anything? What does it mean to come back and see you?
