-Cheonmu-myeong

After pouring cold water over me several times, my face, which had been bright red, finally began to calm down a little.

“What the heck is the teacher… .”

What on earth was he thinking when he smeared so much saliva on my lips?

I felt my face, which I had tried to calm down, start to heat up again, so I shook my head sharply.

“Let’s calm down… .”

Even the most clueless teacher would notice something strange if he saw me like this.

…of course.

On the one hand, I definitely want you to notice, but… .

“Not yet.”

That’s not something I want you to know right now.

I sighed lightly, ran my hand through my wet hair, and looked in the mirror.

The man reflected in the mirror had a fierce expression on his face, his brow furrowed as if he was dissatisfied with something, but his cheeks were a faint pink like those of a shy girl.

“… I think this is enough.”

It hasn’t completely calmed down yet, but it’s not to the point where the Master would feel uncomfortable.

I shook my slightly wet hair, wrapped a towel around my neck, and left the bathroom.

-Cheonharang

I was lying in a daze with my head buried in the pillow,

An anonymous man who had finished preparing approached me with his moderately dry hair tied up.

“Master, I’m ready.”

The cheeks of the anonymous man speaking like that are slightly flushed, perhaps because he had just washed himself.

What the hell was that guy doing in the bathroom?

He raised one corner of his mouth, smiled sinisterly, and faced the unknown.

“Heh, it took a long time?”

“… Sorry.”

“I understand, that could be possible.”

The anonymous man hardened his face and opened his mouth.

“… What on earth do you understand?”

“Huh… Are you asking me to say that with my own mouth?”

“…”

Anonymous sighed deeply and turned his head.

I glanced up and saw that the tips of the nameless man’s ears were red.

“… We have to hurry so we can leave today.”

“Hmm, well, let’s go.”

He nodded, still smiling somewhat sinisterly.

…

As I walked to the outskirts of town to find a carriage, I felt a strange sense of alienation that I had never felt since coming here.

No, that word is too mild to simply describe a feeling of alienation.

It was clearly a feeling I had never felt before, but for some reason, it was a feeling that made me feel hateful, a feeling so disgusting that it made me feel nauseous.

His brow furrowed.

“Master? Are you okay?”

He continued his thoughts, muttering quietly to reassure the worried Anonymous.

‘What should I do…?’

Although the size of the energy felt is enormous, it is so small that it is embarrassing to compare it to ‘anonymous’.

In a word.

What this means is that if I put my mind to it, I can subdue that aura before it even notices me.

… but, well, that can’t be.

If you think about it logically, a god would not have descended here out of nowhere, and that god would not have such poor energy.

He let out a small sigh to calm his excitement and squeezed the anonymous hand tightly.

“It’s really okay, so don’t worry too much.”

“… Yes, I understand.”

Anonymous also held my hand tightly.

Hmm, that calms me down a little.

He looked at the nameless person and smiled faintly.

“Let’s keep going.”

“Yes.”

Still, we must not let our guard down.

I fixed my grip on the wooden sword.

…

When we reached the outskirts of the town, we saw carriages lined up in a row, just like we had seen in the previous town.

The only difference from before is that the numbers are noticeably different.

As I was leisurely looking around, Myeong-i relaxed his grip and looked back at me.

“Master, I will stay here for a while and then I will go by myself.”

“Hmm.”

Whenever I had to catch a carriage or buy light items, I would make Myeong-i go by himself because I was annoyed…

Today things are a little different.

‘What’s the difference?’ At that time, there was no one who could pose a threat to Moo-myeong, but the magnitude of the energy I feel now is such that it’s clear that Moo-myeong will be defeated, so it’s better for me to go with him.

But saying this directly would seem like reprimanding an anonymous force, so it would be better to make some excuse.

“I also want to see how to get a carriage.”

“…? Yes, I understand.”

As if my words were so unexpected, Moo-myeong opened his eyes wide and nodded.

Hmm, did I leave you alone like that?

It shouldn’t be that surprising, but it’s a little disappointing that you reacted like that.

The lips jutted out.

Seeing me like that, Moo-myeong smiled bitterly and took my hand as he headed towards the place where the carriages were gathered.

It’s a little embarrassing to say, but… I don’t know the letters here.

I’ve only lived in the mountains, so doesn’t it make sense that I would know about letters?

Of course, I did learn a little bit of writing from a young anonymous person when I lived in the hut in the past… .

To be honest, I was really embarrassed to be teaching letters to a young boy, and at the time, I thought, ‘I’d rather swing my sword one more time than learn letters,’ so I didn’t study very hard.

As a result, I only know the very basics, except for the characters Cheonharang and Cheonmumyung.

Hmm, I should have studied a little more even though it gave me a headache.

I do regret it, but what, regretting it now won’t make anything better, right?

I was led around by an anonymous hand, biting my lips slightly.

This village also had small signs erected in front of the carriages. It seems that in both villages I visited, this practice was a rule among the carriage drivers.

The nameless man glanced at the signs erected in front of the carriages and began to quickly pass them by.

“How is it? Do you have it?”

“Not yet…but wouldn’t there be one?”

“Hmm, I hope I can find it quickly.”

surely.

Since our destination was far from here, we expected it would not be easy to find.

Well, if you don’t have the heart, you could at least give them some extra money and ask them to go there… .

Is it really necessary to do that?

It’s not that urgent, so if you want, you can take your time and go through another village.

There you go.

How many strawberries can I get for that amount of money?

It is much more profitable to buy more strawberries even if it is a little late.

‘Hmm, right.’

I nodded my head.

As he was quickly passing dozens of carriages, Moo-myeong suddenly stopped in front of one carriage and approached the man who appeared to be the coachman, who was sitting on the carriage and dozing off.

“Look here.”

“Yes?”

Surprised by the sudden address, the coachman raised his head, which had been bowed, and looked around before finding the unknown man and immediately bowing his head to greet him.

“Oh, what’s going on?”

“Is the carriage you’re pulling the right one to go to Ellen?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Myeong nodded and rummaged through his pockets, taking out a few silver coins.

“Two people want to ride, is this enough?”

“Ah… But… .”

Are you short on money?

The coachman scratched his head as if in trouble, then opened his mouth again.

“The first people to arrive took all the seats… .”

“What if we pay them more than that?”

“Ahahaha… .”

The coachman smiled awkwardly at the anonymous suggestion and turned his head this way and that.

And then, with an apologetic expression, he brought his head to the nameless person’s ear and opened his mouth small as if whispering.

Of course, it sounded fine to my ears.

“That, this time, the people who reserved the carriage are quite high-ranking people… .”

“Huh.”

“I’m sorry… .”

The coachman smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.

“Anonymous, can’t you do it?”

“Yes… .”

“Hmm, then there are no other carriages?”

“Yes… I looked around the other carriages, but it seems like there aren’t any because the destination is far away.”

Hmm, that’s difficult.

Should I just stay here for another day or so and then decide?

Or maybe it would be better to just work your way up through the other villages.

As we were tilting our heads here and there, thinking, a person spoke to us.

“Over there… .”

When I turned my head to see the person who had spoken to us, I saw a woman with a truly admirable appearance.

Unlike my hair, which looks somewhat frizzy because I don’t take good care of it, her hair is either loved by God or she takes good care of it. It’s shiny, golden blonde that shines like melted gold.

What are her eyes like?

Blue eyes that shine as if they were set with jewels, especially sapphires.

In addition, her round eyes and overall gentle impression made her appearance look pitiful.

Of course, even if her appearance looks innocent, below her neck.

… So her body wasn’t like that.

Even though she was wearing white clothing that covered her entire body, it did not completely obscure her radiance, and instead, she looked sexually attractive.

Hmm, but if I had to compare, I would say she’s a little thinner than Lily.

Anyway, it’s a body that men like.

However, even though someone with such a beautiful appearance approached us, I frowned.

The cause of the unpleasant feeling I had been feeling until just now.

It flows from this woman.
