Chapter Index

    To tell the truth, I didn’t know much about the Three Kingdoms.

    The only books I’ve read about the Three Kingdoms in my life are the comic books on the bookshelf of the barbershop in front of my house.

    Even that wasn’t working properly.

    Rather than being a proper Romance of the Three Kingdoms book, it was closer to a comedy comic with a Romance of the Kingdom flavor added.

    The length of the arms of the character who appears as Yubi is longer than that of a chimpanzee, so much so that he is dragged on the floor.

    And other than that, the only thing I know about Romance of the Three Kingdoms is the memetic information I saw while looking around the community.

    Why aren’t there things like that?

    Things like the story about Guan Yu screaming like a girl, Jo Hong-gam and Jo Hong of The Man in the Golden Helmet, Jjam, the married killer, and Hwa-woong of the Chicken Cutlet.

    Since all the information is fragmented, the method I’ve been using lately when making plans has actually been closer to putting together a puzzle.

    Even this was possible thanks to the assistance of Jojo and Hee Ji-jae, who were both excellent in resourcefulness, and without their help, the plan and everything else would have been impossible.

    Things might have been better if I had been able to use the information about the game that was the basis of this world… but I had erased that from my mind a long time ago.

    First of all, since I played that game a few years ago, I can’t say that the things that remain in my mind are 100% certain, and when I briefly return to reality and keep all the information about the game in my head, I find myself in a world where the game has become reality. Because there was no guarantee that they would be used intact.

    If you just think about the case of Yubi, in the game he was a brown-haired, tolerant character with nunna attributes, but as the game became a reality, didn’t he evolve into a very grotesque being called the Fingering You Elf?

    Even Yubi, who can be said to be a key character, went through a lot of changes, and I couldn’t even dare to predict in what areas there would be variations, so even though I could refer to it, it was close to impossible to trust it directly.

    However, there was one fact that even I could not doubt, and that was the fact that Dong-tak was a man.

    Jang-gak and Dong-tak were the ones who had no answer to the point where even the original production team, who had been called crazy for making female characters, gave up. There’s no way such an ignorant person could be a woman, right?

    A pot-bellied man with a shaggy fur wouldn’t know – the same thought was stuck somewhere in my subconscious, and as such, the plan was also made based on that…

    Dong-tak was a woman.

    ‘Fuck… this is why things got messed up.’

    Hee Ji-jae said that it was a plan that could go wrong even with the slightest variable, but since the plan was made thinking that the woman was a man… it was natural for things to go wrong.

    I laughed for a moment at the reason for my failure, but then I made up my mind.

    From now on, the plan is to refrain from doing things that don’t suit me and to faithfully follow the guidelines given by Jojo and the secretaries.

    And for that to happen, it seems like additional recruitment is needed in the bookkeeping line.

    I wonder if there isn’t even one useful talent…

    It must have been a moment when I was thinking about such things in my mind.

    “Are you listening to me?”

    A voice filled with faint anger flowed into my ears.

    Of course it was Cao Cao’s.

    “Ah… What were you talking about?”

    “There might be a bounty on your head?! Are you not even worried?”

    “Dongtak, wasn’t that just something the woman made up to make you scared?”

    “What…?”

    “For some reason, I think that might be the case.”

    Of course, there is no basis whatsoever.

    There is no basis whatsoever…

    “Aman, you know it too. How much did Dong Tak and his group abuse the position of governor?”

    Although it is said that this was a measure to castrate the political influence of those who are considered key members within the Cheongryu faction, there is a degree in everything.

    And looking at the current situation, Dong-tak and his group had narrowly crossed the line.

    It was a natural result, as the Jasa-sa position and the Prime Minister’s position were being overused as if they were giving away discount coupons.

    “And now, those who have received the position of governor or governor and gone abroad are all members of the hardliners within the Cheongryu faction.”

    Simply put, it means that they are people who do what they do when they have to do it.

    They are people who do not hesitate to even cross the threshold of the imperial palace with a sword if they think it is necessary, so it can be said that their ability to act is certain.

    “But would such people be discouraged because they were pushed out?”

    “···Probably not.”

    “That’s my opinion too. Perhaps that woman, Yuan Shao, would have been sharpening her teeth by now and starting to raise soldiers to attack Dong Zhuo?”

    Perhaps because of his position as the heir to the prestigious Won family, did he even imagine that Won So, who always tries to act elegantly, is just grinding his teeth without any sense of humor?

    For the first time, a smile spread across JoJo’s face, who had never once thought he would relax while running all the way from Luoyang to here.

    It was definitely a smile, although it quickly dissipated like a mirage.

    “Anyway, that’s what I saw. He must have tricked you into leaving Luoyang on his own because he thought his life could be in danger if he abused his position as governor any longer.”

    “Are you sure?”

    “Is that so? No, I haven’t committed any crime, so what kind of bounty is it?”

    This is what he assured while pounding his chest in front of Jojo.

    [In the name of the Great Emperor, we promise to reward anyone who catches and transports a person who falls under the above offense to Luoyangㅡ]

    Wasn’t it Gura?!

    When I heard Jojo say that there might be a bounty on my head, I snorted inwardly.

    That’s because compared to the real-life Republic of Korea, where CCTV and black boxes are everywhere, the whole world here in the Han Dynasty is like a lawless zone.

    So even if you put a bounty on my head, how effective would it be?

    That’s what I thought.

    To sum it up, it was a huge mistake.

    Even though there were no CCTVs or black boxes, there were humanoid CCTVs everywhere.

    Those CCTV cameras are red-eyed at the thought of taking the bounty.

    Still, if I had to point out one thing that was fortunate, it would be that the montage creation techniques in this world are far behind compared to those in reality.

    Thanks to this, it was much easier than I thought to shake off the suspicious gaze.

    They dabbed some dirt on my face and changed my clothes into old, tattered clothes that I had found at a nearby private house instead of the clothes I was already wearing, so I thought it was a completely different person.

    However, the problem was Jojo… This was because the guys who put the bounty on me were unnecessarily meticulous and wrote down in detail Jojo’s appearance.

    However, it was impossible to apply the method I used to Jojo.

    That’s because, unlike me, who had the ordinary status of black hair and black eyes, Jojo had unusual eyes.

    Should I say that, like me, he doesn’t have the looks that can be solved by getting some dirt on his face?

    That would be the case as long as you don’t wear colored contact lenses or anything like that.

    Should I stop by reality for a moment and get some colored contact lenses? ?

    As I was scratching under my chin and thinking, JoJo came up with a plan.

    Since I have to take care of the horses anyway, I thought, why not disguise myself as a young lady who is on a cruise and a servant who serves her?

    It’s quite common for girls from famous families to cover their faces with something like cotton thread, so if they disguise themselves like that, fewer people will be suspicious even if they are covering their faces.

    “Amman looks like a suspicious person just by looking at him… Aren’t you just creating more suspicion for no reason?”

    “No? Don’t you trust me?”

    “Ehyo, okay, let’s give it a try. If things seem strange, you can take advantage of the opportunity and jump out.”

    It was something I only tried once with the mindset that I had to make the most of it.

    Surprisingly, it worked.

    That too, very well.

    When purchasing a carriage following Jojo’s advice, was it effective to purchase one with little decoration but high-quality wood?

    Even if you sit on the coach seat and make a loud coughing noise a few times, you will get a free pass for most inspections.

    If you think that’s not enough, ‘I dare you to know who the person here is…’ I was able to overcome it by adding a topping called ‘.

    Was it because of this that I was able to penetrate a place that I had originally had to avoid?

    The destination, Chohyeon, was quickly approaching.

    As a result, I began to worry about things that I had not paid attention to before due to lack of excitement.

    For example, the safety of Heejijae, who would have remained there even after we escaped Luoyang.

    “···You must have escaped well, right?”

    “Don’t worry. Because he will definitely be waiting for us at Chohyeon.”

    It was something I couldn’t help because Dong-tak pointed me out and mentioned it, but when I think back on it, maybe I was being too indifferent to her.

    I didn’t notice because I was trying to comfort Jojo, who was worried.

    That someone is watching us.

    And… even if it was only for a moment, the price of letting down one’s guard was painful.

    “No, I heard the writing clearly~!”

    “Really?”

    “Yes, that woman called that man ‘Suhyeon’~ I’m sure~”

    “That’s right…”
