In the middle of the night.

The black cat started climbing up the guesthouse without making any noise.

4th floor.

Yoo Yu-yeon’s personal space.

The door was already open, as if waiting for someone to visit, and with a gentle gesture from the black cat, the door slid open without any noise.

“Are you here?”

The black cat nodded silently and closed the door.

“They didn’t talk about you. Isn’t the loyalty surprisingly deep?”

“Hmph, that damn bastard.”

Yu Yu-yeon was irritated.

“You really don’t know what’s going on. They suddenly started using the word ‘motivation’ and established a culture of being a jockey… Even on days when Yeo Il-ye appeared, they went to the gambling house and wasted money.”

“The flag bearer culture is a discrimination method used in the military. Could it be that he was a soldier?”

“That may be so, but he especially shows a strange hostility towards stories about the military.”

Yu Yu-yeon looked at the black cat. It had been a while since I had done business with him, but he was not a very trustworthy person. His face is covered with black spirit qigong, and he doesn’t even reveal his name.

The fact that Ho Cheon-an refused for as many as five days is understandably suspicious.

There was nothing I liked about it, including its unrealistic beauty that made me wonder how a body like that could even exist in the eyes of a woman. Even though her breasts are that big, her waist is really only a handful. How can you have a body like that when your pelvis is as big as mine?

“Ho Cheon-an is really a strange guy. Even though he clearly knows that he is a second-class warrior and only shows a pitiful side to the world, wouldn’t it be possible for him to be aware of my enlightenment if he is really that guy? Because this is a guy that makes you think.”

If I were to ask you if it can really give you enlightenment, would you give me an answer?

The black cat was truly worried.

It wasn’t just a lie that I wanted to become the best Sichuan ronin.

If you become a representative of the Sichuan people, you will be able to collect as much fascinating information as you like.

Deceiving people was an everyday occurrence for the black cat that he could not even feel any remorse.

However, Ho Cheon-an had a feeling in his heart that he should not be deceived.

Is it because Ho Cheon-an is seriously dealing with Black Cat?

‘I don’t think it’s just that, though.’

“Don’t forget my goal. If you show signs of neglecting what you promised, it will be over.”

“Keep in mind.”

The black cat smiled and held out his hand.

handshake.

Yoo Yu-yeon frowned and held his hand.

“Hehe.”

When work resumed, brokers flocked in like dogs.

“Ho Ronin!”

“Ho is safe!”

“This matter is really urgent!”

Gaaaargh. Guwaak. I lost my mind due to the crowd of people.

Anyway, after clearing out the miscellaneous requests today, there are four requests left that are worth doing. I wrote down a simple summary of today’s request, like in the quest window.

[Tell the secret message to the Gongmyeong faction]

[Risk level: low]

[Difficulty: Low]

[Eradication of blackness in Gyeongsu Market]

[Risk: Medium]

[Difficulty: Medium]

[Finding Maryeongcho in the black market]

[Risk level: low]

[Difficulty: High]

[Recovery of the missing snow cat]

[Risk level: high]

[Difficulty: High]

“Now, among the requests I can do today, these are the ones worth doing. Do you have any questions?”

“If it’s a snow cat, isn’t it a cat? Since you are looking for a cat in Sichuan Province, why is the risk high, even if it is difficult?”

“There is a strange rich man in Sacheon who insists that tigers are cats.”

In fact, the only request worth doing was eradicating the black sword from Gyeongsu Market. If you want to do the rest of the requests, there’s nothing you can’t do, but you still have to show some consideration for newcomers. Just as the rule for warriors is to catch slimes first.

And…well, I guess I have to face reality.

This morning, Black Cat and I agreed on the details. First of all, the commission money is for a black cat that I will sell. Instead, I decided to mainly accept requests that would allow me to gain experience with black cats. Additionally, it is a condition of active cooperation if something happens that can help Black Cat gain a reputation as a ronin.

If the cooperation was long-term or major enough to interfere with my livelihood, we agreed to mutually agree on compensation.

As it happened, the request for Gyeongsu Market was arranged by that well-fed broker. I really didn’t like the grinning, but I decided to do it anyway, so I had no choice.

“What kind of place is Gyeongsu Market?”

“Well, it’s just a common market.”

In this central area, the market is a very simple concept. Merchants refer to people who have the rights to a store, or land, and do business on it. Those who do not have a store are not called merchants. So, this means that street vendors are not merchants.

A market is a place where street vendors gather. However, just as there is a way for street food to flow, people native to Sichuan Province have their own area, even if they are street vendors. Therefore, the market is a place where new merchants or wandering merchants who live in Sichuan Province but have no commercial foundation, and those who came to the city to sell agricultural products or home appliances and crafts, do business.

Therefore, the market is bound to seem like a bonanza to those who are ripping off money. Since they are outsiders or have no base in Sichuan Province, there is no way back. It’s a very confusing place, so it’s easy to get out.

“So, these guys called Heukdo keep popping up again and again.”

“I see….”

The black cat raised his eyebrows as if something was not clear. Isn’t the head a bit messy? He seemed to sense that something was strange. But the black cat didn’t ask questions and I didn’t answer.

“The gaze…is harsh.”

“Well, that’s right.”

Gaze is violence.

When you become a Sichuan ronin, you can feel it keenly. I just wore black lips, but the way everyone in Sichuan looked at me changed. People who look at people with disgust, as if they are filth, and give them a look of disgust. I knew it through game knowledge, but experiencing it again was a completely different problem.

But it is up to you to overcome it.

“What you have to do today is simple.”

“What is it?”

“He just watches from behind and quietly disappears when I give him a hand signal.”

“….What?”

“If you can’t quietly disappear, it doesn’t matter if you just run away.”

I could see the black cat looking puzzled, but I ignored it and walked towards the alley. I plan to kill time in this alley until my target, the Black Island guys, show up.

“Please explain. Aren’t you just going to kill time until those black people show up anyway?”

“Just go see the sights today. If this can be solved with just an explanation, why would preference be given to those with experience? First, take a look and decide if you want to do it or not.”

A dissatisfied black cat crossed his arms and leaned against the wall. I also took out [Gyeongshin Martial Arts-7] that I had in my pocket and started reading.

I think it’s been about 2 hours or so.

It seemed as if black thieves were slowly gathering towards their target.

There is a muscular leader who wants to express his delinquency by tearing his sleeves from his shoulders, and three ordinary henchmen who try to give off a sinister appearance. He straightened his shoulders so much that it almost reminded me of the picture of a newbie walking around with his arms spread out on his third day at the gym.

It seems like they are the ones causing a mess in the market these days, and it is clear that people around them are avoiding them.

“Is it them?”

Before I knew it, a black cat was right next to me. An indescribably pleasant scent tickled my nose. Please turn on your blinkers and come in. It makes my heart flutter when you look at me like that.

Nadae subdued Sogi, who was trying to take over the brain by making a fuss about the heart and the green light, and then turned his attention back to the black swordsmen. When I saw the dirty men, my heart and Sojung immediately became quiet.

“What did I say earlier?”

“I told them to just look around.”

“Okay, if you think things are going to get a little bigger, really run away.”

“Okay, so please show me a demonstration, senior.”

“Okay, pay attention.”

When I ran out onto the main street of the market, people were shocked.

“Black lips!”

“Sacheon Ronin!”

I pretended not to see and quickly looked around. apologize? no. Because if it falls, it gets damaged. grain? Oh, if this falls, when are you going to pick it up and filter out the dirt? pass. The cotton cloth is perfect, but the cotton cloth is not visible…

I saw a basket full of chestnuts. Yes, this is a passing grade.

Today’s acceptance necklace is a chestnut basket!

Please rush forward with your right foot and welcome the successful candidate!

My right foot, drawing an exciting trajectory, kicked the chestnut basket.

Nights scattering in all directions.

“Good luck!”

“Oh my!”

“That damn bastard!”

“Disturbing.”

After making a very charismatic appeal, ‘I am a Sichuan, a villain who mercilessly kicks a chestnut basket if it gets caught on my foot while walking down the street,’ I looked towards the black people who were looking in my direction.

Those guys who glare in my direction.

Today’s work was very easy.

The fact that the Black Islanders were not afraid when they saw the Black Lip was proof that they were just one-day puppies who had never met a Sichuan ronin on the bottom of the Sichuan River.

“Hehe.”

How should I put soybean paste on those one-day puppies so that they can be praised for doing a good job by the black cat?
