The Barbarian Writer of a Martial Arts Visual Novel Chapter 217

EP.217

Lim Ha-yeon Why is this woman everywhere I go?

How many times do we meet in the space of a few days in Uichang?

I’m not a detective who desperately wants to catch a thief who prays every day for a righteous theft, nor a producer who manages the every move of a courtesan who is an idol in this world.

“What’s going on with the Uichang Literary Club?”

Let’s change our thinking and wonder if this woman is a stalker. I asked, thinking nonsense.

“You take care of everything.”

Lim Ha-yeon hid something in a corner of her body, as if there was something she shouldn’t show.

It’s like declaring that you’re going on a diet, but then getting caught taking food out of the refrigerator at night and hiding it in a corner of your body.

Considering it’s paper, it looks like a document. what.

“This woman came to apply for a new author event, but the submission deadline had passed and they were rejecting her.”

The guard samurai frowned and answered on his behalf, as if he was bothered by the fact that the guest had been tricked.

“Ugh!”

“Hayeon Sojeo at a new writer event?”

I looked at Ha-yeon Lim, who was glaring at the security guard as if asking why she was talking to this man.

Are the application documents hidden? But why?

‘This is the first time that Muyeongsintu has been established as a writer.’

Known to the public as a courtesan, her true identity is Muyeongsintu!

If I had to say her catchphrase, I would have to say it like this, but as a writer, I have never seen the setting of Muyoung Shintu.

“I understand there are only a few days left to submit documents for the new writer event.”

Hwang Seo-saeng’s younger brother caught a glimpse of me looking at Mu-yeong Shin-tu with a face full of doubt, and spoke to the warrior in a puzzled tone.

“that’s right! I knew it too! “There’s still time to submit!”

Im Ha-yeon protested to the warrior with a cheerful face, as if she had received unexpected reinforcements.

“you’re right. But you can’t.”

“why?!”

“What do you mean?”

I also added a word of help. Maybe it’s not possible to be a thief or a courtesan? Are there any qualifications?

“Where does Soje live now?”

The guard warrior asked Lim Ha-yeon instead of answering.

“It’s a guest room.”

“Where exactly do you live?”

Im Ha-yeon glanced at me in response to the security guard’s question, avoided eye contact, and opened her mouth with an embarrassed expression.

“Do I have to go into detail? I’m staying in a remote place over there called Cheongryu Gaekjan. The cheapest room doesn’t even provide breakfast, so I have to eat in Mantou’s cheaper room…”

This menu reminds me of difficult times. You too are having a hard time.

“I’m not asking where you’re staying, I’m asking where you live. Didn’t I tell you earlier that I’m not from Uichang? “Then there won’t be a separate hometown.”

“Ah… that’s…”

Ha-yeon Lim couldn’t answer and lowered her head. There’s no way I can say that because she’s a prostitute on the run.

“It is true that the submission deadline is a few days away. But that’s only for Uichang people, for whom the identification process takes a short time. “People from outside the country had to submit it by yesterday.”

“That can’t be possible…”

Lim Ha-yeon looked as if the world had collapsed, like someone who studied hard to become a civil servant but forgot to register for the civil service exam and lost a year.

“you’re right. “If you are not from Uichang, you had to submit it by yesterday.”

Hwang Seo-saeng’s younger brother confirmed the death as if it were a finishing blow.

“I didn’t hear anything like that. “How could it not?”

“No.”

“I… this is all I have. please. yes?”

Lim Ha-yeon approached the guard warrior with a face that looked as if it would collapse if she were poked.

“Kkeuk hum! The faces are too close. And no!”

The escort warrior may have been a man, but when the beautiful woman approached him with an eager look on his face, he blushed and took a step back.

“I came to Uichang just looking at this. please. “How could it not?”

Was this event the reason you headed from Usan to Uichang? I guess I could have run away further, but I was in Uichang.

I saw Lim Ha-yeon desperately looking through the door blocked by the guard with a tearful expression on her face.

I feel sorry for you, but should I help you?

Since I refused her help last time, I can ignore her like this.

I was worried for a moment, but I came to one conclusion.

It’s not a difficult problem for me to solve. I’m also a candidate for the real heroine there.

Haomun has vouched for my identity, so let me help you one more time.

*********

ruined.

Ha-yeon Lim lowered her head in frustration. Where did it go wrong? Where did I see it wrong?

I was tempted to make excuses to myself, but I quickly gave up. Even so, the responsibility must be entirely your own.

I never thought I’d be able to even challenge my only hope. What should I do now? Should I go back to the umbrella? Are you going to be treated harshly for being a runaway courtesan?

Then stealing? hate. He came to Uichang to become a writer, not to become a new Muyoung Shintu.

But how do you become a writer?

There is no way. Then back to the umbrella? no.

Ha-yeon Lim’s thoughts kept spinning as she couldn’t think of a clear solution. She broke free from the never-ending wheel of thoughts and immediately turned her gaze to Kang Yunho.

Why would you show such an ugly side in front of that man?

The misery in her heart grew even greater.

Why don’t you ask that guy for help? A naughty thought rose in her mind. Since I said I was looking for employees, I published the book because it would look good to that man, as Mr. Kwak said.

Can not be done. It’s that human’s agenda. I shouldn’t get any more help.

Before Im Ha-yeon could stop herself from weakening, the man she hated most in Uichang had once again extended a helping hand.

“She lives in Daseogak, Uichang.”

Ha-yeon Lim turned her head to the sound of the man’s voice.

“you?!”

“Sojeo is not an outsider, but a resident living in Daseogak, Uichang.”

Kang Yun-ho spoke to the security guard, ignoring Lim Ha-yeon’s look telling him not to worry.

“Manager Kang. “I understand that you feel sympathy for a beautiful woman, but it is not something that can be resolved by carelessly vouching for someone who is clearly a foreigner.”

Can’t we just let it be resolved? Lim Ha-yeon thought about asking for one more request, but decided to watch the situation out of curiosity to see what Kang Yun-ho would say.

What on earth is that man talking about?

“It’s not a lie. Hayeon Sojeo is my brother-in-law’s daughter.”

“Brother-in-law’s daughter?”

“We are planning to settle down in Uichang for the time being, but since Daseogak is under construction, we are only letting them stay in guesthouses.”

“Really?”

Do you accept the help that human agenda sends? Do you refuse and throw away the opportunity to become a writer?

She couldn’t give an easy answer because she wanted to become a writer as much as she hated Jeondae Muyoungsintu.

“…yes. that’s right.”

In the end, winning was a dream.

“If this happens, it has become difficult for me to judge for myself. “I think we need to bring in a superior.”

Is it because the man is a well-known bookstore manager in Uichang? The guard warrior spoke in a perplexed tone.

“I really shouldn’t be able to submit it…”

Lim Ha-yeon’s shoulders slumped. If a superior comes, will you accept it? Is a man’s power of speaking stronger than that of a superior?

The man’s remarks completely shattered her expectations.

“Then I will meet with you, Chairman, and tell you the story in person.”

Are you the chairman of a literary society? Im Ha-yeon couldn’t believe her ears for a moment.

Isn’t he the highest ranking person in the literary society to which he submits his documents? Are you friends with someone like that?

“Do you want to?”

“I will bring you good news, so wait here.”

Lim Ha-yeon had complicated feelings about the man and couldn’t even say it was okay if he asked.

I just thought again that the way he walked in with a confident smile on his face resembled a character from his favorite novel.

********

“Have you eaten?”

After saying hello to the chairperson of the literary society, I ended the conversation and called out to Lim Ha-yeon, who was bowing her head against the wall in misery.

“What happened?”

You said you ate mantou, a lump of flour, for breakfast. If I had waited here, I wouldn’t have had lunch, so I guess I should eat.

“I’ll tell you while we eat.”

I turned around without answering.

“….”

Why aren’t you following me?

“If you’re going to say something weird like saying you don’t want someone to help you buy you a meal, then I’ll just go alone.”

I got on the bus for an assignment somewhere and tried to act like Yeo Dong-gi for the group assignment by not even eating together.

“go. let’s go together.”

As I walked resolutely, she spoke in a reluctant tone and followed.

———

I found a suitable restaurant and went in with her.

“What happened?”

“You accepted the documents.”

Without even going to the chairperson, I spoke to the person inside and they accepted it right away. After all, I have good connections.

“ha. I’m glad… thank you.”

Ha-yeon Lim placed her hand on her chest and let out a sigh of relief, condensing hours of worry. Then he naturally lowered his head towards me.

For no reason, my eyes go towards my hands. Oh. big.

“Did you have any intention of becoming a writer?”

I quickly looked away as she raised her head and asked her.

“…Because no one dreams of climbing over someone else’s house wall.”

That’s true.

“Submission of work is due this week. They say the results of the review will come out next week. When I went there, I saw that there were many works that had already been submitted and evaluated. “You’d better submit it quickly.”

I guess I don’t have as much work to do as I thought since I only have to evaluate the final candidates.

“Because it’s a novel I wrote once, I can resubmit it right away.”

“Dumplings are here!”

“But what brought you to the literary club in the first place?”

Ha-yeon Lim looked at the dumplings being set on the table and asked.

“I decided to become a judge for this new writer event.”

“…yes?”

Squeak. In an instant, she let go of the chopsticks she was holding.

“Hayeon Sojeo?”

“uh? Uhhhh!? Over there. Because you are Korean. “Please eat all the kimchi dumplings here!”

Why are you suddenly becoming polite?

“I’m buying it with my own money, so I’ll eat it myself.”

“Ah…”

She lowered her head as if she had nothing to say.

“Did you agree to keep quiet about your brother-in-law’s affairs?”

I asked her, who was looking at me and the dumplings, what she was thinking about.

“Uncle Kwak, or rather the branch manager, has decided to crack down on joining, but I don’t know what will happen. “Please be careful just in case.”

I don’t want to be troubled by Uncle Wang’s problem.

If Uncle Wang gave you the black coin as a favor, there is a high probability that no major problems will arise. However, we should not rule out the possibility of becoming involved in troublesome matters like yesterday.

Should we look for employees who have learned martial arts?

Hiring an employee with martial arts skills is as ridiculous as hiring someone with the lowest salary and ability to speak three languages.

Should I hire a military escort?

It’s not like an escort warrior is worth a penny or two. Should I ask Seocheon Pyo-guk for help? I don’t want to have anything to do with the party anymore.

Feeling dizzy, I looked at Ha-yeon Lim, who was eating dumplings without notice. Are you hungry?

Shouldn’t the problems related to Muyeongshintu be solved by the Muyeongshintu of the time? Not the time to eat dumplings.

uh?

For a moment, a good thought passed by.

‘What if we make Ha-yeon Lim an employee of Daseogak?’

I quickly remembered her specifications.

An aspiring reader writer who knows a lot about the Tang family fortune, looks good, and has been educated as a courtesan, so she must have a good service spirit.

In addition, by learning martial arts, there is no need to hire separate escort warriors.

This is the perfect employee I want, right?

‘Do you want to become an employee because there is a job at Daseogak?’

At that moment, a suggestion was about to come out of my throat, but it stopped.

no. If you say something here, you may be rejected. This woman. Quite stubborn. If you say no once, there is a high probability that you will never say yes again.

He is a coveted talent. How do I make her my employee?

“Hey…”

After I stared at her for a while, she spoke to me in a cautious tone.

“huh?”

“Can I eat kimchi dumplings too?”

“Eat everything.”

—————-

‘Let’s make Muyoung Shintu an employee of Daseogak.’

Muyoungshintu Lim Ha-yeon.

No matter how you think about it, he is the best employee at Daseo-gak in Uichang.

“Manager Kang? “Weren’t you going to eat?”

After parting ways with Muyeongsintu, I hurriedly looked for Hwang Seosaeng’s younger brother.

“It’s the Literary Association’s new writer event. “Aren’t I the judge?”

I have to make the girl who has a lot of ill feelings toward me become my employee.

‘Even if a problem arises due to Muyeongshintu’s agenda, most problems can be solved if Muyeongshintu’s daughter is there.’

Daseogak needs Lim Ha-yeon.

I know her settings. I also learned information about her that had not been revealed.

What should I do?

‘Just design it so that it becomes my employee and that’s it.’

I use what I have to rope her into being an employee.

“yes. “That’s right.”

“Let’s look at the participants’ personal information.”

Ha-yeon Lim.

You will have to become an employee of my Daseogak.
