The world is wide, and the organization’s power cannot reach everywhere.

Those in martial arts do not like to be bound by a crown, but they always covet the power and authority that a crown holds.

There are areas where the two sides meet, and there is no region beyond the reach of the government or any place beyond the reach of the Murim League in private matters. The Hongnyun faction was also one of the sects created as a result of this merger, and received approval from the government to manage security and collect and pay village taxes to the government on its behalf.

Venerable Geumbok focused his efforts on increasing his influence by scattering several of these sects, but one day, a madman with an ax appeared out of nowhere, killed the head of the Hongryun sect, married the daughter, and inherited the Naleum sect.

“From the point of view of Venerable Geumbok, it is a shame that something like this happened. Munju, who was entrusted with the job, was unable to sway the public sentiment of this small village, so he committed corruption and is being criticized and criticized. If I kill you like this, will I only be a bad person? It’s hard to think of sending a master to kill you.”

“So you are using your connections in the Murim League to call people?”

Sanyeo nodded and said.

“Yes. They say they came out to investigate. From now on, I will thoroughly investigate the ledgers and hold you accountable for the crimes of your predecessor. Since the investigation was conducted in the name of the Murim Alliance, reliability is guaranteed by the authority of that name. Even if there is a rumor that you are a vicious person who commits the same injustice and tarnishes the name of the sect, Master Geumbok will be able to save face.”

“I see.”

I nodded my head calmly, but my heart was not at ease. Instead, cold sweat was flowing. When they said they were going to check the ledgers, it was because I had no confidence that I would survive well.

All bookkeeping was entrusted to Seonjang, but even if Seonjong has continued to use the sect’s ledger here, will he be able to overcome the vicious bastards in the Murim Alliance who have been doing only this type of investigation?

“…So, are we doomed?”

Sanyeo shook her head in response to my question and said,

“Docheol. Why are you already showing such a despondent side? It’s a large cooperative, right? I have to step forward confidently.”

I also wanted to be confident. However, the opponents are not soldiers with swords, but National Tax Service employees who came out to investigate with documents, right? How on earth are you supposed to be confident?

Since it was something I couldn’t respond to with my abilities, I had no idea how I should approach the person. Is it right to leave everything to the judge’s ability to manipulate documents?

I looked at Senseon, who was sitting quietly next to me. The woman in charge of the account books was smiling with a relaxed expression, unlike me, who could not hide her anxiety.

“…What, are you okay?”

Just because you came from the Murim Alliance, has your sense of reality disappeared? Senseon saw my questioning expression and squeezed my hand and said.

“Don’t worry. Because I worked hard to prepare the ledger. You won’t be caught. In fact, this is not the first time such an investigation has taken place.”

When I thought about it, it seemed like that too. If the thieves next door knew that the Hongryun Sect was trash, there would have been an investigation somewhere. The fact that he’s doing fine despite going through all of that investigation.

This means that they have gone too far in manipulating documents and destroying evidence.

Anyway, since I don’t know anything about this, I had no choice but to trust the strangely leisurely calculation and confident sentence.

“If you don’t open the door quickly, I will break this door down! I am the giraffe of anti-midwifery! I have come to investigate you in the name of the Murim Alliance!”

The crazy woman who called herself the Kirin of the Xiangshan Sect was now screaming with all her might, as if she was really going to break down the gate. The energy was so strong that Seong Seon, who had not yet learned martial arts, was so startled that he dropped the snack, and the servant trembled as if he had heard the howl of an animal.

Sanyeo said with a surprised expression.

“Wow, at this level, you can at least become a top-notch expert. As expected, if you are in charge of investigating corruption in a clan, even if you are at the lowest level, your level is quite high.”

If you’re a top-notch person, it’s impossible to plan to cut off the investigator’s head and run away when the situation calls for it. Now that I am second-rate, if I try to swing the ax with my skill, that bitch will counterattack faster.

The servant’s legs were trembling, and Seonjong held my arm tightly, as if he was anxious. In the meantime, Sanyeo said with a relaxed expression, waving her handcuffs.

“Then, I’ll hide because it’ll be troublesome if I run into those people.”

“….If it’s dangerous, you’ll come, right?”

Sanyeo looked at me intently after hearing those words. Then he smiled and said this.

Because I saw you doing “.”

Fuck you.

Sanyeo ignored me swearing with her eyes and quickly moved through the gap in the building and disappeared.

The attendant cried out in a pitiful tone, shaking his body like an old man suffering from paralysis.

“What, Moonju? Uh, what do I do? If we leave it like this, won’t all the factions disappear?”

“I’m going to count to three now! If you don’t open the door for three counts, I will give you a taste of the essence of Hangsan Sword Technique!”

The Qilin of the Xiangshan School screamed sharply, scratching its voice like a madman. For a person who is training, he has no hesitation. It seemed like the Xiangshan School was a pretty scary place.

“What the fuck is the Hangsan Sect doing? Is this a place where only bastards gather? First, open the door quickly. People are going to die.”

“Yes! Lord Moon!”

And while the attendant was running, I used my energy and shouted to the person on the other side of the gate.

“I’ll open it now, so wait!”

When I looked to the side, I saw that Seonjong, who had said he was fine, was trembling with his face turning white. I said, hugging her.

“It’s okay. You say you’re not scared?”

“…Well, hearing threats like that makes me a little scared.”

I thought as I stroked her hair.

If I was destined to die here, I would have died long ago.

I don’t know what that bitch named Kirin from the midwifery school is doing, but I don’t think she can take my head that easily.

*****

When I walked to the gate carrying Seonjong, what I saw there was a woman who looked quite mature.

“Get out of the way.”

“Billion!”

As soon as the servant opened the door, she pushed the servant away with the door with a loud sound. She looked around without even looking at the fallen servant, and then gave me a sharp look and said,

“Are you the head of this Hongryun faction?”

I nodded, accepting the sentence.

“Oh? I am Munju Docheol. What I’m carrying here is my wife, Seongang.”

Investigator Lim Seo-ryeon’s face distorted. She was a woman with slightly upturned eye corners and a sharp expression, giving her the impression of a fox. On the other hand, the curves of her chest swelled even over the tightly tied clothes, and her buttocks swayed gently every time she moved, showing off her voluptuous body.

One thing that was unusual was that her hair was closer to brown than black, and she didn’t seem to mind if I glanced at her hair.

“Are you coming? Are you aware of the position that you are currently being investigated by the Murim Alliance?”

It wasn’t my part-time job. If you’re going to kill her anyway by finding fault with her, I’ll kill her even if I lick her shoes, so what’s the need to look good?

There are judges and servants here. They are all people who fell in love with me after seeing me kill Jeondae Munju with an axe, and they are people who rely on me because they believe I can do anything.

I answered while tilting my head.

“I’m not a sinner yet? If you’re going to kneel and press, then what did you come to investigate? It’s just a matter of hitting all branches with the Hangsan Sword Technique. If you want to investigate, I’ll open the warehouse here and let you check the ledger, so check that first. Next, if a sin comes up, I will do it for you, whether you kneel or crawl on the ground.”

Lim Seo-ryun frowned and glared at my words. Then he twitched his lips and spoke while fiddling with the sword on his waist.

“If you commit even the slightest sin, your head will no longer be left. Until now, no one has escaped safely from being caught by the Giraffe of the Anti-Sweet School.”

She said that in a very venomous tone and then turned around. A young warrior was following behind her.

He looked like a third-rate man, but his level of martial arts was much lower than mine, his posture wasn’t right, and his face looked young. I thought I was at an age where I had just passed the terms and conditions.

Lim Seo-ryeon walked forward for a moment and then looked at me again and glared at my wife who was riding on my back. When Seon made eye contact with the warrior, his body trembled and he hugged my neck tightly, trying to escape her gaze.

Lim Seo-ryeon looked at that and raised the corners of her mouth and said.

“Hmph, are you planning to gain sympathy by carrying a girl on your back? Among those who tried to gain something by showing off their marital love in that way, none of them were successful. It would have been better to just stand and hug.”

I remained silent for a moment as she spoke.

Lim Seo-ryeon spoke in a more excited tone, probably because she thought I had beaten her to the punch.

“Why do you do that? Did I surprise you?”

“….My wife can’t walk. Still, since the inspector came, I had to quickly show my face, so I brought him on my back.”

I said that and showed my injured ankle.

“Uh… .”

Lim Seo-ryeon stiffened at those words as if she had been hit on the head.

After hesitating for a moment, she scratched her head in confusion, then turned around and spoke in a low voice.

“….Joe, let’s investigate.”

What is this year doing?

This bitch.
