Sigh.

Purr.

The carriage stopped, and then the heavy breathing of the horse was heard.

When the carriage stopped and I looked out the window, I saw a nostalgic scene.

A vacant lot above the stairs, buildings that feel a bit shabby over time.

We finally returned to the Inmuhak Hall.

When I attended Inmuhak Hall, I could not agree at all with people saying that the facilities were not good or that it was the smallest among the institutes, but it was only after visiting Cheonmuhak Hall that I realized it.

It’s really small.

If the Cheonmuhak Hall is reminiscent of a small town, the Inmuhak Hall is neat and consists of about three buildings and two vacant lots.

At the entrance to the academy, several instructors and even the administrator with a long white beard were standing there, as if they already knew we would arrive.

However, they stood there blankly looking at the carriage, as if they had no idea that we would appear in such a luxurious carriage.

“Director, who decided to come today?”

“…Hehe, I haven’t heard anything about it…”

The old man called Gwanju stroked his long beard with his hand and spoke.

Cheolwoong, Poongwoon, and Namgoonghyeok got off the carriage in front, and we followed them while watching them.

As soon as I got off, without worrying about anyone else, I put my fists together and greeted the instructors.

“I returned after a friendly match.”

“Yes, you had a hard time, really.”

Hearing Cheolwoong’s words, the governor patted his shoulder and said.

Still, his eyes were fixed on the carriage.

He looked like he was wondering what on earth was going on, but he seemed to be suppressing his curiosity.

“This carriage… No, I have something to say to the officials first.”

When we heard that we had something to say, we all looked at Gwanju.

I could tell that the level of Naegongsimbeop had increased.

I could feel the profound depth of inner energy in each and every word of the words spoken before my eyes.

“I know how much shock and pain this defeat must have been for you.”

The governor started speaking, and we each exchanged glances.

‘Defeat?’

We were at a loss as to whether we should correct Gwanju’s misunderstanding, or whether we should listen to the end without interrupting.

“…”

“However, there is no point in being unhappy and regretting things that have already happened!”

Other instructors nodded as if they agreed with Gwanju’s words.

“I-”

“The most important thing is the desire to overcome. Since the results are not immediate, the officers and instructor Cheolwoong can straighten their shoulders!”

Other instructors applauded the instructor’s famous speech.

We, too, were caught up in the atmosphere and applauded, but at the same time, we couldn’t help but make dumbfounded expressions.

Because we were not defeated.

In the end, it was instructor Cheolwoong who had the courage.

“Director.”

“What?”

“We won.”

“…Huh?”

Gwanju’s white eyebrows rose significantly.

The other instructors also seemed to doubt with wide eyes whether they heard correctly or whether instructor Cheolwoong was lying.

Silence continued for a while.

“Really? Did you win?”

“Yes.”

“…Okay, forget what I said earlier.”

Gwanju, who once again confirmed the truth to Instructor Cheolwoong, cleared his throat and corrected his words.

“Results are everything! Enjoy this moment and remember!”

“Oh!”

“No, we are Cheonmuhakkwan…”

“Then we will now take the position of Cheonmuhakkwan…”

“Jiji, calm down. It was a friendly match.

As the governor raised his voice, the instructors, who finally understood the situation, praised us and clapped.

At the same time, I started to drink the refreshing kimchi soup.

But it’s not just excitement.

If Seol-yeong was able to use ice balls more freely and Jeong-seon was able to use his inside balls better, he could expect an overwhelming performance in the non-marriage competition.

Well, not to mention me and Poongwoon.

Namgoonghyuk?

what…

Just stay healthy.

Through the cheers of the instructors, who were in a festive mood, we rushed to the dormitory we missed.

No matter how comfortable the carriage changed, it was still no better than the dormitory I always stayed in.

“Phew…’

“Wow…”

As soon as Jeongseon and I entered the dormitory, we let out a long breath.

Come to think of it, I’m staying with Jeongseon here.

It was nice to have a large room at Cheonmuhak Hall by myself, but sharing a narrow dorm room with Jeongseon also had its own charm.

Of course, most of the charm came from Jeongseon.

“How about it?”

“What?”

“Seolyoung’s treatment. Do you think you can do it?”

As soon as I entered, Jeongseon asked me a sharp question.

There is a possibility of treatment.

I took out my pocket.

In the pocket, there was a piece of ginseng that was still showing its bright appearance.

My level of inner strength and inner strength is 9.

And Seolsam, which is said to be a great elixir.

At first, I tried to get drunk, but in the past, Pungwoon said that he cured Seolyeong by feeding him this Seolsam.

Of course, it was said that a nobleman, an elder of the volcano sect, helped him, but that means he was of great help.

“If you cut ginseng in half, will it still be effective?”

“Um… I guess so? It might be a little less effective than eating the whole thing by yourself, but…”

Is Seolyoung’s treatment possible?

To be honest, I could see the possibility after yesterday.

Yesterday, in the carriage, Seolyoung also confirmed that when she is excited, or to put it more bluntly, when she reaches climax, a significant amount of negative energy is released.

It seemed like it might be possible if we took advantage of this point.

“…”

Suddenly, I felt that the place I was possessed might not be a martial arts area but a rice cake area.

Did I realize it too late?

In any case, the attempt had to be cautious.

In my mind, I wanted to raise my Negongsimbeop level to 10 and proceed, but after reaching level 9, I had an intuition.

‘Any more than this is impossible.’

I felt something like shackles.

This was not an area that could be achieved simply through effort or training.

Enlightenment or chance.

I felt like I could break through this wall only if heavenly luck followed me.

However, there was no time to wait for that.

“Something more helpful…”

Then Jeongseon tapped my shoulder and smiled, saying he had a good idea.

“It’s better if you have overflowing yin and yang energy, right?”

“…right?”

“Well, there is a place I know well.”

As soon as I heard that, it came to mind.

This is where she was born and raised, and where her reason for dressing as a man came from.

It is a place where the exchange of yin and yang energy occurs every day, and a place where people with extreme yang inner energy like me go to practice.

Stoma.

“Yes, that place existed.”

It certainly seemed like it would be helpful.

but.

“…I can go, right?”

What if Seolyoung, the owner of the North Sea Ice Palace, was caught going in and out of Giru?

It felt like a pain in the ass.

“Don’t worry, I have everything in mind.”

“…Okay.”

I nodded.

We decided to get rid of the ox horn as soon as possible, rest until this evening, and then go to Giru right when everyone was asleep.

***

“Should I dress like this?”

“If you don’t want to hear that government officials from the Military Academy visit Giru.”

“…”

The three of us now looked like a luxurious courtesan and two guard warriors.

To borrow Jeong Seon’s words, it was actually common for famous courtesans to have a guard like this.

As I was walking down the quiet street, at some point I turned off into an alley.

“Oh…”

A lively street filled with red light began to appear.

It was the famous red light district.

Even though I knew I had to act naturally, my eyes kept moving.

It was a space where men could only do that without thinking.

A place that somehow makes your heart beat.

People who seemed to be intoxicated by the somewhat stimulating atmosphere were passing by.

And the person who approached us was one of the men who had become drunk in this red light district.

“Huh, you really are beautiful, if you don’t mind-”

“…Excuse me.”

“…don’t say that.”

Seolyoung refused like a knife, but the man was persistent.

At first glance, it looked like he was heavily intoxicated.

In the end, it was my turn to step forward.

“Get out of the way.”

“…Ha, you’re a man, can’t you see me and Soje talking right now?”

“Get out of the way?”

“…”

As the man looked at the men behind him, two huge men walked in front of me.

“Have you ever heard of Luoyang twin ears?”

” Luoyang twin ears?”

He glanced at Jeongseon, but shook his head, saying it was his first time hearing this.

If you were to consider whether he was strong or weak, he seemed strong in his own way.

However, compared to Cheonmuhakwan’s Jeonpung, Namgung Yu, and the guy who attacked me, it was almost insignificant.

I slowly raised my hand to the sword.

Although the opponent’s skills were low, I had no intention of letting down my guard.

Because he was an opponent with a special nickname who didn’t even have wind luck.

My sword turned red little by little.

“Oh, the sword…!”

“…”

Looking at that scene, Luoyang Shuanggui looked surprised.

Then they exchanged glances and nodded.

“This guy!”

“Die!”

Boom!

With a loud sound, Luoyang Twin Demons swung their huge fists.

But the direction was very different from what I thought.

“Aaaah!”

Luoyang Twin Ghosts threw a fist at the man who flirted with Seolyoung.

With a loud thud, the man who flew away began to be hit by the two dragons without mercy.

“Why on earth!”

“I know who they are!”

“This bastard is trying to kill us for a few pennies!”

At this point, the man seemed a bit pitiful.

“…Do it in moderation.”

“Yep!”

“Take a look!”

When I told Luoyang Shuanggui to take it in moderation, only then did he stop punching.

The man’s condition…

Well, it looked okay.

Just missing a few teeth.

“Since when do you start studying?”

“This is called sword technique.”

I smiled awkwardly and answered the question.

Honestly, I didn’t know.

Because I just followed what Poongwoon and Seolyeong did.

“Follow me from here.”

Jeongseon took the lead and led the way, and we walked with only eyes on Jeongseon’s back.

And arrived.

“This is my house.”

“…Oh…”

A huge stoma filled the field of vision.
