Chapter Index

    *** ***

    The past of the black cat that I know is very fragmentary.

    His father passed away at a young age and he grew up with his mother. And my mother runs a dry goods store.

    And because he couldn’t handle the problems arising from the increasing number of Taeeumgi every day, he ended up running away from home.

    So, he traveled around the world alone and created Wolbokdang to solve his problems and protect his body.

    That was about it.

    So, when I heard that Black Cat’s hometown was Agyang, Honam, I thought it was a little surprising.

    This is because Akyang was one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world.

    And when I arrived at Akyang and saw the Soga Clothing Store, I was twice surprised by the fact that the Soga Clothing Store was so huge that it could not even be compared to the small dry goods stores that would normally be found in any village or city.

    Considering the scale alone, it should be called Sossi Sanghoe rather than Soga Clothing Store.

    What does the name ‘Yeonhwa’ mean?

    The origin of the name Yeonhwa in this martial arts painting is safe peace or normality. In other words, it is a name that reflects the parents’ wish that their child will only go halfway or lead a normal life rather than a life of ups and downs.

    Therefore, the name Yeonhwa is also the most widely used name for women. That’s why Black Cat’s real name and Moyong Yeonhwa’s name overlap.

    Since I heard that Heukmyo’s real name was Yeonhwa and that he was unable to control the commotion that occurred as he grew up, I believed that the Soga Clothing Store would be a small shopping center that pursued a smooth life, hoping to only go halfway, but the reality was not as I expected. To be honest, I was a little embarrassed because it was a completely different giant fabric store.

    With that sentiment in mind, I observed the Soga Pomok branch for a while. When he realized that the black cat wasn’t getting out of the carriage, he jumped off the driver’s seat and opened the carriage door.

    Was he even in control of his mind?

    The black cat was staring at the dry goods store through the window of the high-speed carriage.

    “…I’m back.”

    “Okay.”

    I felt the desperate emotions contained in Black Cat’s one word, so I held onto Black Cat’s hand. The black cat seemed to be having a hard time controlling her emotions, but as soon as she held her hand, it tightened to the point that it hurt, but she just decided to endure it in silence.

    The black cat has lived a life completely distanced from its original family.

    This was proof that he valued his mother that much.

    As a black cat, didn’t he have any desire to return to his hometown and meet his mother?

    Nevertheless, the fact that he held on and kept his distance so much may have been a reflection of how strong his desire to prevent accidents caused by lunar delay from reaching his mother was so strong.

    So you must be afraid.

    By visiting the Soga Clothing Store and meeting her mother again, isn’t the current peace broken and all kinds of commotion happening again like in childhood?

    The reason the black cat’s hand holding my hand trembled was probably because it was caught up in such thoughts.

    “It’s okay.”

    Yeo Il-ye held Black Cat’s empty hand. The black cat looked at Yeo Il-ye in surprise, and Yeo Il-ye smiled softly as she looked at the black cat.

    “There is no need to be afraid. No matter what problems arise, Yeo Il-ye, a member of this Huye Shishi, will draw his sword for you.”

    “That’s right!”

    Hyukkirin also grabbed the black cat’s hand.

    “If there is anyone abusing my power, I will crush them, so don’t worry!”

    “If there is anything I can do to help, I will do so.”

    Moyong Yeonhwa also smiled softly and took Black Cat’s side.

    “Me too. What are we normally like? Aren’t we like-minded people?”.

    Dokgo Yi-seol, who opened his mouth for the last time, narrowed his eyes and added words.

    “Ah…”

    The black cat looked around at the group with a fierce expression. As I was only looking around at my companions, I gave strength to the hand that the black cat was holding and let him know that I was also here and on your side.

    The black cat is no longer a helpless child.

    He was the head of Wolbokdang, the world’s greatest intelligence organization, and a transcendent martial arts expert who possessed the Nine Yin Qi and learned Sosu Shingung.

    And what are the faces of those who live with such a black cat?

    A descendant of the Jeomchang faction and a princess of the empire. A direct descendant of the Mo Yong family of Somoonju of the Amryongmun.

    And there is also a master of fireworks who defeated the black dragon and picked up a line of heart left by the first Heavenly Demon.

    Even if the problems that had plagued the young black cat came back again, the power to solve those problems was overflowing.

    So I said it clearly and with confidence.

    “Who is this body? Ho Cheon-an, the hero of the martial arts world. Just trust me and follow me.”

    “Fuuhu..!”

    …I spoke more seriously than ever, but the black cat burst into laughter. The black cat whined for a moment, then pulled my hand and stood up with a bright smile.

    “Thank you everyone. I will meet my mother.”

    My companions waved and saw us off, and Black Cat and I held hands and headed to the Soga Clothing Store side by side. As we approached, the soldier guarding the front door responded politely.

    “What business do you have at this dry goods store?”

    “I came here because I wanted to meet the store owner.”

    “Are you the one who made a prior commitment?”

    When I shook my head, anguish appeared on the warrior’s face. In fact, if there was no prior appointment, the standard response would have been to send the person back to reschedule a later appointment, but I guess it was because I looked like a very precious guest, with my beautifully decorated black cat, taking off my scraggly military uniform, and wearing expensive clothes, to chase him away like that.

    And I said the words that would end the warrior’s worries.

    “The introduction is late. My name is Ho Cheon-an, who is called the Noegeomnangin in the martial arts world.”

    The warriors’ mouths opened wide. The unmanned person who had been examining me for a while opened his mouth with a confused expression.

    “First of all, I think I should say I’m sorry. In the case of the Hocheonan Daehyeop, which is a noegeomnang, there are almost no rumors about its appearance, so it is impossible to my eyes…”

    what. yes.

    Since I always wear black lips, it’s normal for no one to know what my face looks like.

    Puzzle!

    Therefore, I delivered to Muin the most reliable means of proving that I was a Noegeomnangin.

    “Huh-up!”

    He just floated a rock out of thin air and placed it in his hand.

    A warrior at the level of fireworks who uses thunderbolts. As far as I know, I was the only person like that in the martial arts world, so what better proof could there be than showing off something in the air using brain energy?

    The soldiers rushed in and the dry goods store became noisy in an instant.

    Amid the commotion, the black cat held my hand tightly. I opened my mouth to relieve the black cat’s tension.

    “It’s okay. I’m just on my way to see my mother. Why are you so nervous? There’s no need to worry if it’s been a while since we last saw each other.”

    “That’s it, but…”

    The black cat looked at me and rolled its eyes.

    “Apart from that, I’m on my way to introduce a man to my mother, so how can I not be nervous?”

    …what.

    Only then did I realize my situation.

    The reason I came to the Soga Clothing Store in Akyang now was to help Black Cat regain her lost past.

    But what is my relationship with the black cat?

    I proposed to the black cat, and although the black cat did not clearly agree, it was the same as half-approving. So what does it mean to go with a black cat to see its mother…?

    In the end, it was no different from going to say hello to my mother-in-law!

    “….senior?”

    emergency! candle! rain! award!

    I hastily adjusted my clothes and refined my clothes. The black cat next to me looked at me with curious eyes, but I didn’t have time to be conscious of the black cat’s gaze.

    “Hoo, hoo.”

    I took a long, deep breath to control the tension that suddenly rose like an angry storm.

    Who is this Ho Cheon-an?

    A master of hwagyeong. The hero of martial arts. Currently, he is the man with the highest stock price in this martial arts group. Yes, a son-in-law of my age would welcome any mother-in-law with open arms. There is nothing wrong with greeting someone a little abruptly.

    I desperately hypnotized myself.

    So, do I have some major flaw?

    Besides being single and without any relatives.

    I just spent my whole life being a ronin.

    At best, I’ll just gamble a little.

    Right now, I’m in a situation where I have nowhere to go.

    There are about four beautiful people waiting in the carriage.

    He’s just a slightly unsuitable partner for his daughter, who wants him to live a peaceful life without ups and downs, so much so that he names her ‘Yeonhwa’ in hopes of safety and peace, right?

    “Senior, why are you suddenly sitting down?!”

    ruined!

    It was completely ruined! Who would give a daughter who is the equivalent of a forbidden jade leaf to such a bastard?

    I cried out as I looked up at the black cat who was sitting down, looking at me with devastated eyes.

    “It can’t go on like this. At least I have a home to stay warm in! And a fat safe in such a prosperous house! I can’t meet my mother-in-law until I fill that fat safe with a lot of money!”

    “What crazy things are you talking about! Can’t you wake up right now!?”

    The black cat tried to raise me up, but I also held on desperately. like this…! If I meet my mother-in-law like this, my self-esteem will be shattered..!

    What’s the fuss about “?”

    As the struggle between the black cat and I continued, a cold voice rang out.

    The eyes of the black cat and I turned to where the voice came from and everyone held their breath.

    It was because of the cool gaze of the middle-aged Mibu, whose clothes were meticulously refined.

    no.

    This was because the face of the middle-aged Mibu looked very similar to that of a black cat.

    like that.

    I made the worst first impression on my mother-in-law.
