It was announced through the postal mail that the damaged guesthouse had been restored and consultations would begin again.

In the process, I added one promotion.

They said that the people staying at the guesthouse would be given a ticket through a lottery that would allow them to have private consultations with me.

Although this may seem like a simple individual consultation, it was actually not something that was easy to see.

Anyway, I am currently an official in the military department called Case Tongsa, and I am highly regarded in Moorim.

In addition, he is known to do good deeds for the people and save them, so for those who are just entering the martial arts world, he is someone they definitely want to meet if they can.

It is even more so because you can meet superhumans who are like idols to the martial arts people.

Maybe that’s why little by little, my guesthouse began to be treated as a tourist attraction worth visiting at least once by the martial arts people.

“They said they want to visit Sapa too.”

Hano, who came to visit after a long time after hearing that the guest house had been rebuilt, sipped his drink and spoke.

Sapara…

To be honest, I don’t really care about love or affair.

Among the political factions, there are people who are not human, and among the four factions, there are people who know benevolence and righteousness.

Of course, the Demonic Cult is an exception. When it comes to magic, the training method itself has become outdated, so most people who practice it are insane.

“When you come here from Sapa, how about having it inspected at Haomun?”

“Are you sane?”

Hano looked at me as if he was pitiful.

Providing such privileges could have resulted in Hao Mun being attacked by other Sect factions.

Because of his cooperation with Guan last time, some of the factions were already talking about Hao Wen being Guan’s dog or something, but they said there was no need to draw attention to it.

“We are in a position to obtain information, and in order to do so, we have to live as if it exists or not.”

Hano spoke indifferently and I smiled and nodded.

“I understand. By the way, if you want to come see me from Sapa, please let me know that you can come.”

“The people of the political faction in Seomhwaseong are probably keeping quiet.”

“Wouldn’t it be okay if we don’t fight? It’s not like the warriors of Sapa don’t fight against monsters and demon cultists.”

“Hmm… Well, let me tell you. ”

He spoke lightly and looked around. He looked around at the guest cup, which was four times bigger than the previous one, and smiled.

“There are a lot of customers.”

As the island castle grew, many people came to visit. So, it was natural that many guests came to my guesthouse, the only guesthouse in Seomhwaseong.

“Do you think there won’t be another guesthouse in Hwaseong Fortress?”

“If you report it to the castle, you can make a guesthouse. But they said no one reported it.”

There’s no need to notice anything. However, while I was running a guesthouse in Seomhwaseong, there were not many people who wanted to open a guesthouse, perhaps because no one was thinking of causing friction with me.

“Still, the number of merchants is increasing considerably.”

“That can’t be helped.”

Although it was not the Cheonghoe Sanghoe that was connected to my Sanghoe, several merchants had set up a Sanghoe in Seomhwaseong.

This also wasn’t a problem. The store next to my guesthouse was not that big, and the products they handled were somewhat differentiated.

“In the case of small businesses, they are on the market side… And as you know, I have no intention of becoming rich through business.”

Hano chuckled.

He would know. The two mines I am currently developing in collaboration with the military will hit the jackpot.

High-quality silver is mined from a silver mine with several silver veins as thick as snakes, and the silver is made into silver bars and sent to the center.

To be honest, guest income is meaningless since the dividends will be paid stably after a while.

Also, there are mines to be developed in the north and the island area under the south, which is an area that has not yet been opened.

Other than that, if you think about things like secret places or the location of treasures, money didn’t mean much.

What’s important is the message.

“Anyway, what are the movements of the Demonic Cult?”

“Well… I heard that oil prices are moving recently. As for the other families… I don’t know yet.”

“Prayer Yugara…”

It was a family that appeared in Heavenly Moon. The head of the family, Yu Jang-mok, uses a magic attack called Gomok Magic, and his skin is hard, so his defense power is considerable.

And what you need to watch out for in Origin Confucianism is…

“Gangsi.”

“Hmm. What is discussed in the original Confucianism is Gangshi. In particular, the Blood Demon Gangshi is a threat.”

The Blood Demon Gangshi has a body as hard as steel, and even if it is damaged to some extent, it can regenerate by eating the corpse. It is also extremely ferocious and enjoys bloodshed.

If that were the case, it would be correct to consider it a monster.

However, what was fortunate was that the Blood Demon Gangshi were not as numerous as other Gangshi.

That’s because the material for Blood Demon Gangshi is only those who had demonic nature implanted in them from a young age and whose demonic nature grew and ran wild.

“I know.”

“It was said that Kiwon Yuga was suddenly preparing the Blood Demon Gangsi.”

“Can you stay still in Hongryun Holy Family?”

“Oh. Do you also know about the Hongryun chant?”

“Roughly.”

It comes up when you’re talking about Demonic Cult in Heaven’s Bright Moon, and when a woman who was married to a member of the Qianyu family died, the Hongryunseong family asked for her body to be returned.

However, the Origin Confucian family made her body into a jiangshi, referring to someone outside the monastic order, and from then on, the Origin Yuga and the Hongryun Seong family became enemies.

The moment one of the two becomes the leader of a demonic cult, one family will be completely destroyed.

“It wouldn’t be possible to make them fight and ruin both of them, right?”

“It won’t work.”

Although they grind their teeth against each other, due to the nature of the magic cult, those who use magic techniques cooperate unless there is a special problem.

There is a problem with just taking advantage of people you don’t have a good relationship with.

Hano took a gulp of alcohol and sighed leisurely.

“Anyway, there is no harm in being careful.”

“Well…”

Although there are as many as three superhumans, and another superhuman, Namgungcheon, is said to be staying here, there is still nothing more troublesome than when the strongmen run amok.

It’s the same with Blood Demon Gangshi, but if something like Poison Gangshi explodes and sprays poison, those who are weak will be poisoned.

“Is there any hard liquor?”

“Yes.”

“Well, I’ve got that in hand… I don’t have anything more to say. Let’s go now.”

“Since you’re here, how about taking a bath and taking a rest?”

The bathhouses are quite popular these days.

Last time we promoted it through a postal mail message, we wrote that Namgung-cheon was satisfied, and the number of customers increased. Especially older people.

“I don’t have time to take a leisurely bath. Still… if you recommend it that much, should I give it a try?”

He grins and heads to the bathhouse. When I got up from my seat to watch, Chaejin, who was sitting next to me, smiled bitterly.

“Will the Demon Cult attack here?”

“There is no guarantee that it won’t happen. Just prepare.”

“Be prepared. How should I prepare?”

There is no answer regarding the part related to demonic religion. We should either destroy them or drive them out before they enter the castle.

A place where you can bathe in hot spring water, eat good food, and drink the best liquor and tea anywhere, and from rooms on the 3rd floor or higher, you can view the thousand-day plum blossoms of Hongseong Mountain.

That alone was enough to make my guesthouse famous.

It would be even more so if you had the right to request individual consultation.

Maybe that’s why I started consulting again, and there were quite a lot of customers.

I saw the people waiting take a number and wait, and I immediately started chatting and having a drink with them.

“So, you said it was a monster with four arms and black scales on its body? Weren’t there seven thorns on its tail?”

“Huh? That’s right!”

More than half of the counselors came for counseling related to monsters.

As the road to the North opened, a large number of new monsters appeared and came to inquire about it.

This was similar in Heavenly Moon, and it reflects that when new areas become accessible, the monsters in each area eat each other, change, and emerge in new ways.

“Probably the Iron King’s ghost. What color was it?”

The military man who came from Mukwang Village in the north said after thinking about it carefully.

“It is gray.”

Of course, there were cases of color play with monsters in the Heavenly Moon.

If you think about the characteristic that stronger monsters have vivid colors… if they’re gray, they’re not that strong.

It won’t be able to attack with poison, and it won’t be able to attack from a distance by shooting the spikes on its tail…

“The Iron King Ghost is easier to fight than you think. You might think that it would be difficult to fight because of its scales that block sword attacks, but that is not the case. The Iron King Ghost does not block sword energy. Just absorb it.”

“Isn’t it a similar story?”

“There is a limit to the amount of absorption, so if you keep attacking regardless of whether it is sword energy or something else, you will be able to catch it easily.”

“Huh.”

“However, if the color is vivid, this method cannot be used. So apply precious stone to your weapons. Then it will be easier to pierce the scales. And if you want to avoid battle, carry a camellia stone with you. Because the Iron King Ghost hates the unique smell of camellia stone. However, it is meaningless to fight even once. Keep in mind that it is something you dislike, not something you are afraid of.”

“I see. Thank you!”

He got up, bowed, and left. As I was watching, I looked at the people waiting for their turn and saw someone who had just entered the guest room.

The person who was staring straight at this place, wrapped in a blood-covered robe, walks towards us.

“Seonja Shinsan, do you become Teacher Yuwol?”

“That’s right.”

Chaejin, who was standing behind me, didn’t say anything. The voice of the person wearing an old robe was that of a woman.

When I nodded, she slowly took off her robe and several people let out exclamations.

It was a woman who appeared to be around the same age as Chae-ryeon. She was a beautiful woman with short, light brown hair and blood-red eyes.

“Oh…”

Someone let out an exclamation. Is it because she still looks young but her beauty is amazing?

Or is it because she shows a lot of courage even though she still looks young?

Maybe it’s both.

Or maybe it’s because of something else.

“Withdrawal new window Yura…”

I knew the woman in front of me.

Another main character of Heavenly Moon like Sayun and Chae-ryeon.

After defeating the Iron Blood Emperor last time, he continued to travel in the martial arts world and built up a reputation. He is one of the deities who received a new star title this time.

and.

“I would like to have an individual consultation.”

A test subject that was injected with demonic properties by Origin Yuga.

I looked at the card handed out to me and then stared at Yura.

When I was young, by chance, I escaped from the original Confucian testing site and became a member of the political sect.

A woman who knows that there is still demonic spirit left within her and wants to get rid of it somehow.

She was now standing in front of me with a serious expression on her face.

“First, stand in line.”

It’s okay for Sayoon because she’s Jinju’s main character, but even if she’s another main character, she doesn’t get any special treatment.
