If there’s one thing I’ve realized while living in the world of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it’s that I’m the type who surprisingly hides his sleep.

Honestly, until then, I thought I was the type of person who could sleep anywhere.

I couldn’t possibly use something called a bed in this world.

Even though it was hard, it was so hard that I felt like my back health was being destroyed even if I just lay still and did nothing.

The problem wasn’t just the bed.

Because the pillows of this world, which are represented by the name of neck acupuncture, do not suit me in the same way.

Since ancient times, a pillow is only a name given to something that provides soft and comfortable support to the back of the head, but what kind of pillow is a piece of wood that looks like your cervical vertebrae will protrude if you sleep on it?

It’s not for nothing that the first thing I made when I came to this world was a pillow.

Fortunately, it was a shame because the family was wealthy. Otherwise, he would have been suffering from a herniated disc in his neck at a young age.

Anyway, in my opinion, having become sensitive to sleeping in that way, it seemed like there were wrinkles in the mattress I laid under while I was sleeping.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain this strange feeling poking around my wing bone.

So I tried moving my upper body gently with my eyes closed to try to do something about it, but it was no use.

Even though I tried to smooth out the wrinkled area in that way, the feeling didn’t go away.

So it must have been the moment when I finally opened my closed eyes.

The grid-patterned ceiling, not the ceiling of the guest room I saw before going to sleep yesterday, was waving at me.

“···It’s an unfamiliar ceiling.”

Thanks to this, I was able to naturally say the lines I always wanted to say at least once in my life.

No, so where am I?

First of all, when you look at the ceiling, it feels like a cage to confine animals.

It was at the moment when I was pondering the question that Jojo’s voice came through my ears.

“Looks like he woke up.”

“Aman? What the hell is this…?”

“···It looks like the dinner we had yesterday had a dream potion in it.”

If it’s a dream drug… is it like a sleeping pill?

In a way, it felt like that.

For some reason, when I went up to my room after finishing dinner last night, I felt strangely sleepy…

I thought it was the result of a miraculous collaboration of hunger and accumulated fatigue, but I never thought it was the drug.

“Wait a minute, then this is…”

“This is the prefectural office of Jungmohyeon.”

The moment I heard those words, there was only one thought that came to my mind.

‘I’m sick of this…’

Perhaps out of hesitancy, he didn’t seem to have touched the cotton thread over Jojo’s face, but since he was imprisoned like this, it would only be a matter of time before his true identity was discovered.

No, regardless of that, even if we escape from here using force, the fact that a behemoth was spotted in this neighborhood will definitely reach Dong-tak’s ears.

And the moment this fact reaches Dong-tak’s ears, Byeong-ju’s cavalry, known for its ferocity, will start chasing after us, drooling at the thought of eating the bounty.

There is still quite a bit of distance left to reach the destination, Chohyeon.

‘Even if I take my horse and escape from here…’

Will we be able to reach Chohyeon before Dong-tak’s soldiers and Seoliang’s cavalry snatch us from behind?

Honestly, it was difficult to be sure.

Because we were already tired.

It must have been a moment when I didn’t know what to do in the face of such a sudden crisis.

“Hey,” someone’s footsteps were heard from the entrance to the prison.

“So, you locked him in prison?”

“Yes, yes.”

“Ha, even if it’s not, then how on earth are you going to take care of that…”

“Well… that guy Jeomsoy insists so much…”

“Okay, let’s see your face first.”

What followed those words was the sound of footsteps approaching this direction.

Judging by the content of the conversation that took place in a split second, it seems that the person who brought me and JoJo here, who were fast asleep under the influence of sleeping pills, brought my superior with him.

The reason is probably to spread responsibility in case we are not the people he is looking for.

Even as I was thinking these thoughts, the sound of footsteps echoing inside the prison was slowly approaching us.

That’s why I stiffened my body slightly so that I could respond immediately no matter what happened in the future.

The presence of the shackles surrounding the wrists and ankles was a bit annoying, but if you don’t like them, you can just store them in your inventory.

It must have been a time when I was simulating various situations with my head spinning for the first time in a while.

The sound of footsteps that had been echoing non-stop from earlier seemed to have stopped, and then a foot wrapped in a black leather shoe caught my eye.

As I went up there, the first thing I saw was-

‘···Gums?’

It was a long, straight leg wrapped in something that looked just like that.

The next thing that caught my eye was a face that no one could deny was beautiful, with an impressive straight forehead.

Yes, it is true that she is a beauty that is not commonly seen… but at the same time, should I say that she gives off the feeling of a poor person?

Before I knew it, a beautiful woman who looked like an OL and always drinking energy drinks and electronic cigarettes was standing in front of me.

He looked down at me with an expression like, ‘What is this bastard?’

How many seconds had passed since eye contact was made like that?

The narrowed eyes seemed to widen slightly for a moment, as if assessing something.

“Hey…you crazy bastards!”

‘···?’

“Are you guys really crazy?! huh? There is something to be mistaken about. How could this person…”

‘···??’

“It shouldn’t be like this. Are you okay? miss? We’ll get it out there right now.”

‘···???’

Suddenly it started to rain.

“Key! Where are the keys? The keys!”

“Yes? Ha, but…”

“But, will you take responsibility if I sleep or not? Huh?”

responsibility.

Was it as if the emergence of a word with a similar effect to ‘civil complaint’, limited to civil servants, made everyone come to their senses as if they had been doused with cold water?

One of those who hesitated, not knowing what to do, immediately took what appeared to be a prison key and offered it.

“What is the shackle key?”

“Jo, do you mean the shackle key too? But releasing the shackles may be a bit dangerous…”

“Danger? Majestic~? I still can’t come to my senses.”

The woman sighed for a moment as if she had no idea how to handle this matter, and then waved her hand at those who were hesitating.

“The dangerous thing is this situation, so don’t talk nonsense and give me the keys quickly.”

“···.”

“Or, just like this, we can all join hands and travel to the afterlife in harmony. Instead… you know? I can’t defend myself?”

“D, I will give it to you.”

“No need…! No, not this. Yes, bring it quickly.”

I was very confused.

It was because I couldn’t keep up with the situation.

Nevertheless, the reason I didn’t say anything and just put effort into managing my facial expressions was because they said that if I stay still, I’ll get there at least halfway.

I don’t know the intention or reason, but it seems like she’s trying to get us out of prison, so even though we can’t help, we shouldn’t get in the way.

So I stayed quiet for now…

“Who is this person that makes you say this?”

A stumbling block in the shape of a human appeared.

At first glance, he seemed to be the one who had brought us all the way here. From his perspective, there were more than one or two suspicious corners, but his superiors were only trying to gloss over them rather than pinpointing them clearly, so maybe he thought something was strange.

His narrowed eyes seemed to represent his state of mind.

Since she had already made up her mind, if she encountered resistance like that, it would be natural for her to show a crowbar, but the woman was no easy feat.

Because he literally continued acting without blinking.

The other person’s attitude is so pathetic that they sigh as if they are about to die.

“Ha… This is why those who have never tried Luoyang Water…”

And now even comments like that fit in.

“I should have clearly educated myself on the following things… I hope that you, the precious person, will help me understand.”

The atmosphere of the place, which could have flowed in a dangerous direction, began to flow in our favor again.

And it was Jojo’s timely remarks that drove a wedge into that trend.

“···I hope this is a reason I can understand. Otherwise… it would be very unpleasant.”

Could it be that he was imitating the behavior of an elemental element he saw once?

The tone and gestures of a young lady from somewhere appeared in Jojo’s body.

It didn’t stop there, and when Jojo acted as if he was going to remember the faces of the people present, everyone’s faces turned pale and they were in a hurry to avoid Jojo’s gaze.

“Would it be possible? What are you doing? I won’t release it quickly!”

As soon as she was free, the woman stepped forward once again.

“First, we will take you to our guest house so you can wash your body first.”

As I followed the woman who claimed to be a guide as naturally as breathing, what appeared in front of me were… three horses.

Just as I and Jojo were both confused, the woman who brought us here grinned and got on the horse.

“I’ll give you detailed explanations along the way, so let’s get on board.”

“···.”

“Or are you going to keep doing that?”

“What is your name?”

Was he waiting for that question to come out of Jojo’s mouth?

A smile appeared on the lips of a woman who was looking down at us from a horse.

“Jingung.”

“Jingung…?”

” Although I use the nickname “, I feel awkward calling people by ◦, so if you want to call me, please call me Mr. Jin. ”
