“And since His Majesty the Emperor personally praises him, the wealth that falls is probably not normal.”

Should I say that I truly benefited from Hyeok Gi-rin?

Originally, I would have just received a reward after the appeal was filed, but my involvement with Hyeok Kirin led to an audience with the emperor, and the reward I received greatly increased due to the audience with the emperor.

“I see…there is nothing we can do since Hwangmyeong has fallen anyway.”

The wrinkles between Hyuk Kirin’s eyebrows did not go away.

I thought Hyuk Kirin was just apologizing for me getting involved in his unwilling attitude, but it seems that wasn’t the only reason.

I thought she would like it because it was a chance to see her brother for the first time in a long time… but looking at her complicated expression, it seems it wasn’t such a simple matter.

Me, Heukmyo, and Sama Yeom decided to give Hyuk Kirin enough time to organize his thoughts.

Well, it was a grandiose thing to say, but we left Hyuk Kirin alone in his thoughts and started chatting amongst ourselves.

“Sacheon seems to have changed quite a bit. Can you tell me what has changed?”

“There were various changes. Have you ever heard of the completion of the Bandit Suppression Monument?”

“Yes, I just picked it up and listened to it on the way.”

“A rather majestic stone pagoda has been completed. Well, since the names of as many as 5,000 people had to be engraved, I thought it would be quite large and that it would take a long time to complete, but the shamans actively participated in the construction of the stone pagoda.”

“I see.”

As a result of the martial arts people’s active efforts, from recruiting masons to transporting materials, it seems that enormous objects were created at an incredible speed.

“Cheonjung-ro has completely lost its function due to the people flocking to see the monument, which is a headache. Even though it’s been over a week, it’s still crowded with people wanting to see the monument.”

Cheonjung-ro is the center of Sacheon. As the word Cheonjung suggests, it is the core road of Sacheon transportation and can be said to be the widest road. A monument was erected at the intersection of Cheonjung-ro with the intention of installing a monument in a place with the most traffic, but the monument attracted so many people that the road was paralyzed.

“What are the trends in the sect? You might feel frustrated that you can’t change the border anymore.”

“Whew, about that… there was a lot of talk about Jambongmun’s platinum plate. When I think about it now, I feel fortunate.”

Sima Yan looked tired. How much did he have to suffer from the Sichuan Province sects to look like that?

“As the entire Golden Street site was returned to the country, we planned to turn part of the Golden Street site into a park and create facilities for the charlatans who resolved this incident. Among them, there is also the construction of a public demilitarized zone.”

“Is that so.”

It was a strange feeling to hear the aftermath of what I had done. They say that Sichuan Province is changing because of me… It feels like a burden on my shoulders, a sense of alarm in a way, and a complex feeling that cannot be described.

“Once the construction of the public bimoon was completed, it was decided to hold a bimoon ceremony to commemorate the completion and award a platinum plaque. So, Sichuan Province’s cultural factions have no choice but to wait until the construction of Golden Street into a park progresses to some extent. After that, I also decided to quit.”

“I see.”

Well, the aftermath of the ranked battle has already spread deep into Sichuan Province. Young men wearing colored belts and boys distributing advertising leaflets. Above all, the biggest thing is that the tier chart has taken root in the minds of the people of Sichuan Province. Even if Sima Yan withdraws his hand, wouldn’t the sects reach an agreement among themselves and continue the rank battle?

“How about taking a tour of Sichuan Province and seeing the rest with your own eyes? It will take a few days to get the protocols in place. It will also help change the mood of Hyukgirin Daehyup.”

Sima Yan suggested going out, and although Hyuk Qilin’s forehead was wrinkled, he nodded, probably curious about how Sichuan Province had changed.

Hyeok Kirin took off his Jeomchangpa gi and wore an ordinary military uniform, I also wore an ordinary bamboo robe, and Heukmyo also wore a Sinbi-myeon maiden costume instead of a Sacheon ronin.

“Hmm. Since you are already in disguise, wear a palace jacket to keep it cool.”

“Haha, this all has its own reasons.”

Looking at Hyeok Kirin, who had a complicated expression on his face, he didn’t force the black cat either.

Detecting Hyeok Kirin’s cross-dressing is not a big problem. This is complicated to explain… To put it simply, Hyeok Kirin’s cross-dressing is close to leaving gaps on purpose.

If ‘Hyeok Kirin is actually a woman disguised as a man!’ When they heard this, people around them asked, “What kind of bullshit is this guy talking about? How can Hyeok Kirin be a woman?” This is because it is difficult to get the same reaction.

They are intentionally leaving room for the suspicion that she is a woman disguising herself as a man.

However, detecting Hyeok Kirin’s identity is a completely different matter.

‘The princess’s whereabouts are a secret of the royal family. ‘You knew a useless secret and urged Ming.’ “I don’t know if the royal masters will come and take my head.”

In fact, when viewed objectively, Hyeok Kirin’s actions are very suspicious. There are very few people who would resist the opportunity to meet the Emperor.

I walked out onto the street with a slightly ambiguous mood, but that ambiguous mood disappeared before I could walk a few steps.

“As expected, the beauty of Sojeo, a black cat, attracts people’s attention.”

“Oh, be ashamed~ The warrior and Confucius must take good care of you~”

The black cat seems excited because it has been wearing fancy clothes for the first time in a while. What can I say? The black cat, which usually wrapped itself completely in black clothes, had a desire to wear colorful clothes.

A black cat that immediately catches the attention of people passing by.

When the black cat glanced up and crossed his arms around Hyeok Kirin, the surrounding atmosphere instantly became tingly. Hyuk Kirin was taken aback by the stares of the people around him.

“Oh my, you won’t shake off the arm of a slender woman, right?”

“Keuung.”

hmm. Does Hyeok Kirin know about the constitution of black cats? They had been sticking together for over two months, so even if Black Cat hadn’t said anything, he might have noticed to some extent.

It was an outing that started as a diversion for Hyeok Kirin, but it was actually an outing for the black cat.

Even if a black cat walks along the main street, its safety is guaranteed as long as it is escorted by Hyeok Kirin, who is the best beast in Sichuan Province.

“Uh-huh! Confucius! This is not the expression of enjoying the side breasts of a peerless beauty! Please be more hellele!”

“Sojeo! You need to be careful with your words and actions! What is side boob? Side boob!”

Hyeok Kirin looked at me. The black cat spoke in a strangely sharp voice.

“Leave him alone, he is a fool who only knows martial arts and is not interested in women.”

“???”

Suddenly, the black cat cast a conspiracy. Feeling very aggrieved, he looked at the black cat, but the black cat turned its head and hugged Hyeok Kirin’s arm even tighter.

“That kind of corrupt guy…”

“If I were ten years younger, I would at least talk to you.”

Hyeok Kirin, a corrupt and transvestite master of cross-dressing, looked troubled by the murmurs pouring in from around her, and Heukmyo laughed.

In the era of martial arts world, walking with arms folded was a fairly unconventional act of affection. As such, even people who are captivated by the beauty of a black cat are left feeling disappointed after seeing that sticky love affair.

The strategy of the peerless beauties that came down from ancient times to ward off men, pretending to have a lover, was extremely effective.

The fact that Hyuk Kirin subtly released the transcendent momentum may have played a role.

Just like that, Hyuk Kirin walked the streets as a victor in life, with a peerless beauty by his side and even a guard, and reached the Cheonjung-ro Bandit Suppression Monument, breaking through the crowds.

“Wow…”

A huge monument that looked like it was about 10 pages long came into view at a glance. Because the achievements of as many as 5,000 people had to be written down, the 10-page high stele was filled with letters.

I was wondering what kind of sight this was, but it turned out to be a cultural asset. Since the monument itself is an attraction, it seems like people keep coming.

No, what on earth can you make in two months?

“Now! ruler! They sell counterfeit hero items that were awarded to heroes who defeated bandits! Although it is a counterfeit product, it is manufactured to the same standards at the Seocheon Workshop that supplied the hero gun and looks like the real product! Feel like a hero too!”

“This is the diet that the heroes of Sichuan ate while going out to conquer, this is the hero diet! These are the foods that Sichuan heroes ate during their march!”

Street stalls were an essential part of places where people gathered. There were shops selling souvenirs, street stalls selling replicas of military-style Jjambap, and insisting that they were hero food, as well as other general stalls filling the area around the main street.

It wasn’t just street stalls that filled the main street.

[Inviting Sangilmun masters with golden plaques! Consult now!]

[If you want to start anew in Sacheon, go to Dodongpa, which has a silver plaque!]

There were more than one sect that had spread out their seats and hung banners with the name of each sect. They are all wearing hero guns and have stylish belts displaying their clan tier in front of their stalls.

People from each clan also spread out their seats and occupied a corner of the street.

As soon as I stepped foot there, I was met with sharp gazes. Of course, those sharp gazes softened when they reached the black cat, but soon they became sharp again and looked at us.

“A person you see for the first time. Go So-ro.”

“That person is top-notch, that person…cannot be seen through. The woman is also quite skilled in martial arts..!”

Grumble. Come on!

Several members of the clan kicked off their chairs all at once and approached us. I raised my tension and placed my hand on the scabbard.
