Since I was in a situation rather than being asked a question, I answered in a hurry.

What should I do now?

How does it feel to be a person who loses all the memories they have accumulated throughout their life overnight?

There was no way I knew that.

Therefore, I had no idea how to act.

‘driving me crazy···.’

I did it with the intention of avoiding torture and also having a reason to get closer to Yeo Bu, but when I thought about it, I realized that was the problem.

Well, it would be great to have something like a textbook for reference…

‘···hmm?’

Wait a minute, it’s a teaching material?

When I thought about it again, it seemed like it might not be there at all.

So…things that I can use as teaching materials.

Even the variations were very diverse.

It was inevitable because when I was still in an orphanage, makjang dramas were very popular nationally, so the teachers working at the orphanage would watch them and play them all the time.

And the subject that always appeared in such makjang dramas was ‘memory loss’.

What if regression, reincarnation, and possession exist in web novels?

In the world of makjang dramas, there were incurable diseases, secrets of birth, and memory loss.

‘There was even a drama that featured all three elements.’

Even the Seodanggae recited good luck every three years.

Dogs can do that too, but how can it be worse for me as a human being?

Although I was only looking over my shoulder, there were numerous ‘examples’ of memory loss in my mind as I watched numerous K-dramas starting from my elementary school days when I was a clueless kid until I graduated from middle school.

‘First of all… you must look confused.’

If you think about it a little, it’s natural to be confused. Isn’t it like sitting in an unfamiliar place when you can’t think of anything?

How many people in the world can act calmly in such a situation?

Even Helena, who is the most calm person I know and is synonymous with calmness, would have a hard time acting calmly in such a situation.

So, first of all, it had to look very confusing.

Pretending to be wary of the presence of Yeo Bu sitting in front of him, he began to roll his eyes and quickly look around the room, which was of course an action for that purpose.

“Hmm.”

Fortunately, my actions worked to some extent.

That sound came out of the mouth of Lu Bu, who was looking at me blankly.

Then, he moved his elbow and tapped the side of the congressman who was sitting upright next to him.

“Wow…!”

···Isn’t it a tuk?

In any case, the lawmaker who received the signal sent by Yeo Bu began to carry out his duties, which he had temporarily neglected.

“Do you remember or have anything in mind?”

“Not at all…”

“Then, do you have a name…?”

“Name…Ugh…!”

Yes, if you lost your memory, you should pretend to have a headache at least once.

So instead of speaking, I distorted my expression and closed my eyes tightly, but perhaps reacting to my appearance, Yeo Bu, who had taken a step back and was listening to the conversation between me and the council member, stepped forward again.

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden? You said you finished the treatment?”

“Well, I think that’s probably the aftereffects of losing my memory. In addition, the head wound was quite serious…”

“···Really? Then, is there any way to reduce the pain?”

“I will prepare a decoction to relieve the pain.”

“Yes, do that.”

For a while, I pretended to groan because of a headache and listened to the conversation between the doctor and Yeo-po, and then, just as it was almost coming to an end, I opened my mouth.

“That…”

Even when I think about it, the voice is full of timid and anxious signs.

So a voice that felt slightly unfamiliar even though it was mine came out of my mouth.

Thanks to this, I couldn’t help but admire it while I was talking.

Maybe I…maybe I have a talent for acting or something…?

“What is my name…?”

“Ah…”

Given the situation and the content of the question, was it a bit difficult to give an answer readily?

The congressman who asked me a question did not look at me, but instead glanced at Yeo Bu, who was sitting next to me, and began to look at her.

“···Ryo.”

It was right after that that those words came out of Lu Bu’s mouth.

“Ryo···?”

“Yes, that’s your name. Last name is Seop.”

“Seop…Ryo…? Does that mean that’s my name?”

No, how can someone’s name be Seopyo?

I did think that if I showed up as if I had lost my memory, I would get some kind of feedback from there.

I never thought they would give it a name like this.

Even the fact that it was given a name like that was a bit absurd by my standards, so I thought about it right away, but I didn’t show such sentiments on my face.

If I hadn’t tried it from the beginning, I wouldn’t have known it, but at the point where I had already done the amnesia cosplay, there was nothing good about finding out that it was actually an act.

It would be a good idea to be careful from now on, even if it’s a minor thing, as it could result in something even more serious as a kind of scandalous crime is applied.

‘rather···.’

Should I use self-hypnosis in relation to that…?

Thanks to that, I had that thought for a moment, but I quickly shook my head to get rid of it.

Doing so would significantly reduce the possibility of the cosplay being discovered, but using the power of hypnosis to interfere with memory seemed too risky.

Wouldn’t it be a big deal if I did something like that and ended up with side effects that I didn’t expect?

So, let’s keep it the same for a while, and if it doesn’t work out, let’s think about it again.

‘No, even if that’s the part…’

Gaslighting it like this…?

Why?

Could it be that I was jealous?

That was probably the most likely possibility.

Honestly, if it weren’t for that, there’s no reason for Yeo-po, who clearly seems to hate troublesome things, to act like this.

In that case… I guess I can just match the rhythm appropriately.

While I was finishing organizing my thoughts like that, was the other side also roughly finished organizing their thoughts?

I don’t know what he was thinking on the inside, but the expression on his face right now was that he was sad about the world, but then he opened his mouth again.

“Really… you don’t remember anything?”

“···Sorry.”

“I forgot that you are from the same area as me and that you worked as my bodyguard…?”

“Are you saying I was a soldier under your command?”

“Yes, he was a bodyguard protecting me. I personally liked you like that.”

“Ah…”

“In a battle not long ago, I pretended to be dead and hid myself among the corpses, and while dealing with one of the enemy generals who suddenly rushed towards me, I was seriously injured and fell off my horse… I never thought it would turn out like this. .”

Yeo-po looked like he was blaming himself, saying that if he had known it would turn out like this, he would have gone a little overboard to help you.

When I saw that, I was convinced once again.

I don’t know why, but Lu Bu wants to recruit me under his command, even if it means telling lies.

It was with the same confidence that he spoke carefully to Yeo Bu, who was blaming himself.

“There is no need to blame yourself. If I were really your bodyguard, I was just doing my duty.”

“Still…”

“Instead… could you tell me a little more about me? I thought something would come to mind when I listened to it…”

“···Yes, as much as you want.”

And so… the uneasy companionship between me and Yeo Bu began.

Soo-hyeon, who had barely managed to come to her senses after lying unconscious for nearly a week, was being gaslighted(?) in real time by Yeo-po. They followed the whereabouts of Su-hyeon, who had disappeared for a whole week, but were unable to find out her whereabouts. Cao Cao’s military camp, unable to obtain any significant clues, was literally like walking on thin ice.

It was because the search time for Su-hyeon had exceeded three days, and Jo Jo, who could be said to be the owner of the military camp, was staying in the barracks that Su-hyeon was using, which was not even his own, and was unable to leave the door.

Is that all?

Jojo had not even had water, let alone a meal, for several days.

I was able to endure until now thanks to my martial arts skills and the alcohol I poured into my mouth to forget my worries. If I were an ordinary person, my life would have been cut off long ago.

In addition, the core troops that made up Jojo’s army were all from Chohyeon, the hometown of Jojo and Suhyeon, or people who were indebted to Suhyeon’s family, the Yun family… The atmosphere could not have been better.

While an atmosphere of mourning was prevalent within the military camp… a person who could not bear to see the situation stepped into Jo Jo’s military camp.

Yuan Shao was elected as the leader of the Anti-Dong Zhuo Alliance by the eighteen feudal lords who gathered in response to the proclamation written by Cao Cao.
