“Hey, Gumiho!”

“Me, me…?”

I’ve been stopped by customers dozens of times while serving.

This time, a girl who looked like a high school student called me.

She is dressed beautifully in a pink hanbok.

The girl suggests shyly, with her head bowed.

“Can you take a picture with me…?”

“Ah… That’s…”

I turn my head and look at Madame.

Then she smiles and gives an okay sign.

“Okay. How would you like me to take the picture?”

“Like this!”

The girl pressed her body close to me and thrust her cell phone at me.

A high school girl’s face suddenly appears on the selfie camera.

Then she mutters as if she is amazed at something.

“Wow, your face is really small…”

It’s strange to see the girl who finally agreed to take a picture together look so depressed.

For her, I opened my eyes slightly and whispered.

“You are pretty too, Miss.”

“—!”

At those words, the girl’s face turns bright red.

“Ah, wait a minute…”

She muttered and covered her face with both hands.

I couldn’t help but be taken aback by the sight of her head bowed deeply.

what…

What did I do wrong?

“Can I upload this to Instagram…?”

“Yes, of course.”

“Thank you!”

The girl bows in an excited voice.

Thanks to that, the top she was wearing was lifted up, and the white T-shirt she was wearing underneath was clearly visible.

#International Village Ilhwa Tavern, a nine-tailed fox has appeared.

Could it be because of the photo taken with a high school girl?

After that, many high school girls who saw my Instagram came to me and asked for selfies.

“You’re so cute!”

“How did you get your ears back? They seem alive and moving?”

“Can I contact you separately, Sister?”

Guests dressed up in beautiful hanbok.

Even tourists dressed in casual and racy attire.

He got all the women’s attention.

How great it would have been if I had received something like this when I was a man.

Actually, I feel a bit strange when I receive it after becoming a woman.

“Thank you….”

“Your ears are sick. Take some medicine and they’ll get better soon.”

“Sorry for the contact information…”

In contrast, the men just silently watch me from the pavilion.

Of course, sometimes fat men would shove their fancy cameras at me and ask me to take pictures of them.

However, they only took pictures and did not eat at the restaurant.

The male guests showed interest in me when I approached their sperm.

When I approached them slightly, they turned their heads away from me.

Whenever we make eye contact, he bows his head as if embarrassed.

Then, occasionally, I would hear an exclamation like, ‘Wow…’

Is my appearance that burdensome?

It seems that men and women have different aesthetic standards.

Suddenly, Madam called me and I went to the living room.

She started whispering in my human ear, but then gradually changed direction to my fox ear.

“You will not serve from now on.”

“Yes…? Then what do I do?”

“Just walk around the store and wait until your target comes and take their order directly.”

Why does it have to be that way?

Jisoo noona is much prettier and brighter…

“Okay.”

At first, I accepted it obediently.

And I enjoyed the night air as I leisurely walked between the yard and the pavilion.

Whenever they made eye contact with a guest, they would spit out their drinks and make a blank expression.

I didn’t really have anything to say, so I just smiled at them.

As time passed…

It’s already 9 o’clock at night.

It’s time for the tourists to go back.

At that moment, someone came in through the front door of the Ilhwa Tavern.

At that moment.

The expressions on the tavern clerks’ faces begin to become mysterious.

no way…?

Sure enough, Madame sends me a sign.

The target has appeared.

Are you really here?

I thought you wouldn’t come since you usually live in Hikata, Japan!

I guess the route was changed because of what happened this afternoon.

I quickly exchange glances with Jisoo Noona.

As Madame instructed, I followed his orders.

My sister left her seat to contact Anna and the enemy.

I stretched out the white robe that was sticking to my whole body.

Then, clearing his throat, he headed towards the pavilion where his target was sitting.

Finally, the moonlight poured into the seat where he was sitting, and his face was clearly visible.

Thanks to that, I was able to clearly see the target’s face.

I’m sure of it because I wasn’t even wearing sunglasses.

Curly hair that makes her look like she’s in her early 30s.

He is Park Shin-ae’s pill distributor.

I stared down at him as he sat there.

He stares blankly at my appearance reflected in the moonlight.

“Order… not accepted?”

The guy soon came to his senses and asked me.

But still, his gaze was directed to the shadow of my body in my clothes reflected in the moonlight.

“Yes… What would you like, Your Majesty?”

He spoke softly, in a historical drama tone, just as he had learned.

And then she carefully sits down next to him.

“Recommend something clean.”

He asks in a hoarse voice, as if he’s already had a drink.

This is probably the second or third time you’ve stopped by here.

It’s difficult…

Not lightly, but it has to be very sticky and last a long time.

He looks at Madame with a puzzled expression.

Then she signals him to grab it, even if it means using cute hand gestures.

I don’t have any talent for that kind of thing…

What the… Damn it. I should have done this before…!

I cautiously placed my hand on my heart.

And then, clearing his throat, he points to the menu.

“You’ve come this far, so why don’t you take it easy…”

I look up at him intently.

My bangs flutter in the night air.

He spoke softly, brushing his hair to the side.

Thanks to this, my vertically elongated pupils stand out even more.

“Please stay with me a little longer.”

“…”

The bastard swallowed hard.

And I look at my fox ears, which are taut and puffy.

Taking advantage of the moment, I wrote down some thick meat dishes and some strong liquor on the menu.

The one that takes the longest to come out…

“Please wait a moment. I’ll just give you the menu.”

I got up calmly and walked to the brothel.

Then, all of a sudden, the historical drama tone was lost.

My heart sinks at the fact that I failed to maintain the concept.

I hurried around the corner, panting.

“Haa…”

“What happened?”

Sister Jisoo, who was hiding behind the corner, asks urgently.

At this, I clenched my hands with a somewhat excited expression.

“I ordered food that takes a long time to come out..!”

“Good job! They’ll be here soon, so let’s hold on a little longer. We’re better at this than you think?”

“That’s right! I think I’ll just change jobs to become an actor!”

As mentioned above, we held each other’s hands and shook them excitedly.

Then, suddenly, I felt our faces getting closer and awkwardly let go of his hand.

“Then I’ll go and talk to you.”

I’m starting to feel a little more confident.

This is easier than you think, right?

“Okay, hold on a little longer!”

He took on a serious expression again.

And then, holding onto the hem of her skirt in case she fell, she carefully climbed up to the pavilion.

“The food will be here soon, Nari.”

“I see.”

“I’ll keep you company in the meantime.”

I sat down right next to him.

My long skirt gently touches his thighs.

“I haven’t seen you before, but is this your first time hearing about Ilhwa?”

“It’s my first time…”

The guy stares at me intently, his eyes slightly open.

What the… Did I misspeak?

“It looks like Miss has not been working here for long.”

“Huh…?”

“This is my third time here.”

This is fucked up.

It was a mistake from the start!

“Ahaha… Yeah, I haven’t been working here for long…”

“It’s okay. I used to hide my face every time I came here.”

He chuckled and took a sip of soju.

I quickly filled his glass to hide my embarrassment.

“Besides, the staff here don’t even pour drinks for you.”

“Ahahahahahaha…. I see! I’m a newbie so I forgot…”

Just shut up!

Everything you do is negative!

“Except when I have a personal interest in the guest…”

“Yes…?”

Suddenly the target looks at me with a suspicious look.

He soon leaned his face toward me and whispered softly.

“Are you interested in me?”

It’s ridiculous.

Even though I was in my late 20s in my previous life, Siho is now only 22 years old.

But what about that guy who obviously looks like he’s well over thirty?

Are you a watchman?

But… there’s nothing I can do.

Because I went to great lengths to keep it.

For now, you have no choice but to handle it yourself…

I held onto the hem of my skirt tightly.

And with his eyes half-closed, he spoke in a sorrowful voice.

“Interest… It’s difficult to say something like that all of a sudden…”

He bowed his head shyly, fiddling with his jacket.

So the man snorted arrogantly as if this kind of thing happened often.

“Patience… This is why I can’t go to a bar comfortably…”

He relaxed his shoulders with a flushed face.

Fortunately, it seems like my acting went well.

but…

The trouble starts now.

“Then, where…”

Because the guy suddenly got up from his seat.

And he makes a gesture to leave the sperm.

“Now, wait a minute… Your Majesty. Where are you going now?”

“I’m really drunk… I’m going to take a walk.”

He said absentmindedly, crumpling his shoes.

No, you’re not just going to leave, are you?

“, let’s go together. I also wanted to get some fresh air.”

The guy paused for a moment at my reaction.

And then he said with a sinister grin.

“Okay, follow me.”

The target walks out the front door, dragging his shoes.

I followed him out, looking back furtively.

Exchange autographs with Madame through eyes.

While I’m out with him, Anna and the enemy will come and catch me.

“Ah, nice. The night air…”

He leisurely strolled through the folk village like an old man, carrying a backpack on his back.

But, unlike him, I am just anxious.

I was walking along quietly, very nervous.

He headed towards the dark bamboo forest.

If you diligently chase after him, you will soon reach a dead end.

Then…

“Miss, how long have you been working at the store?”

“It’s been… a week.”

“1 week…”

He slowly turned around and looked at me.

The man’s appearance was not much different from when I first saw him.

but…

The atmosphere became eerily heavy.

I feel like I’ve felt this way before…

The man speaks as if to drive a wedge into that feeling.

“The lady wasn’t a bar employee, was she?”

“Yes..? That’s the employee. He’s even wearing a hanbok here…!”

Because of the confusion, the historical drama tone was lost.

But the man smiled faintly as if such tone of voice no longer mattered to him.

“There are rules at Ilhwa Tavern.”

“It’s possible to pour drinks for guests.”

“It’s also possible that the historical drama tone may be loosened up.”

He gradually approaches me.

I was scared and started to back away little by little.

however…

Soon, hunters I’ve never seen before start barging into the path I came in through.

At first glance, he didn’t seem like a friendly person.

“But I never follow guests out.”

The target pulled out a bloody dagger.

Then, the hunters all raise their sharp weapons.

“Now, would you like to tell me your identity? The reason you approached me?”

The bastard’s blade is getting closer and closer to my neck.

I trembled and shut my eyes tightly.

Why did I come out for no reason?

When the enemy stops, I’ll just stay in the penthouse…

I regret it so much.

He leaned against the wall, seemingly resigned to the approaching blade.

but…

The knife that was about to reach my neck suddenly stopped.

Thanks to that, I open my eyes halfway and start to assess the situation.

“…!”

The more I understand the situation I’m facing, the more the corners of my mouth go up.

Soon I shouted in a loud voice.

“Enemy…! Anna!”

A red-flowered warrior wearing a kimono with a black background.

Anna in a black silk dress that clings to her entire body.

The two men grabbed the target’s arms on either side.

And at the same time he said firmly.

“You shouldn’t touch other people’s things.”
