The Barbarian Writer of a Martial Arts Visual Novel Chapter 43

EP.43

“Here!! “There is a murderous barbarian!!”

No, how did you know?

It wasn’t that I wasn’t worried that if I called myself Okbun in Chilgok County, someone would hear and report it to the Gapsu Sangdan.

But I guess the problem was that Cheonsalseong was suspiciously in the guesthouse yesterday. I can’t believe there was someone who suspected him of being the Gapsu Merchant Marine assassin yesterday.

“here!! “This is a bitch!!!”

The bald, pot-bellied man pointed us out to the warriors at the entrance of the guest house.

What should I do?

First, I looked at Cheonsalseong Fortress. His face has returned to its original expressionless face, with sharp eyes that look as if they could be cut.

After eating as much food as I could, I felt a little rounder, and before I knew it, I felt like I was getting ready to burst out in life.

I think that when he puts his hand under the table, he is probably trying to pull out a weapon hidden inside his body.

It’s dangerous.

“I’ll figure it out, so don’t take out the knife.”

Immediately, he stopped Cheonsalseong in Korean.

“how?”

“Is the face you have now the face of Okbun from the acrobatic troupe?”

There is no time to explain in detail. Let’s get only the information we need.

“no. “A different face.”

That’s a good thing.

However, this is a situation that cannot be reassured.

A woman with black hair and red eyes is nothing but a celestial being in this world.

“Then that’s it. Don’t take out the knife. I don’t want you to see your younger brother bleeding. “I will definitely solve it.”

It’s troublesome to see blood here.

I don’t know exactly the status of Cheonsalseong right now. But there is one thing that is certain.

Years later, Cheon Sal-seong becomes a murderous crazy bitch.

I don’t know through what process that happens.

I have no choice but to move based on the martial arts common sense and settings I know. And one of the characteristics of martial arts that I know is that once you start killing, you cannot control yourself.

Seeing blood right now could be like touching the detonator of a bomb.

If I were a martial arts expert, it wouldn’t matter whether a bomb exploded or not, but I’m just a strong ordinary person.

“What are these kites talking about? “Come here!”

I looked at Cheonsalseong, no matter what the pot-bellied man said.

Cheonsalseong had a puzzled look in his eyes as to how you could solve this situation.

“Trust me.”

He spoke with a confident face and voice.

There is a possibility that Cheonsalseong will refrain from killing even if he commits murder here. I can’t die right now either. But what happens after that is also a problem.

As long as I run away safely, it’s over, but I, who was accompanying him, am an ordinary person, so even if I run away, I will definitely be caught. And you will receive the punishment of a thousand deaths instead.

I don’t want to go through that.

“Are these people?”

The warriors of the Gapsu upper corps gathered in front of us. I felt intimidated as a group surrounded us with swords.

“hello. My name is Kang Yun-ho, a plumber from Joseon. “What’s going on?”

He naturally got up and greeted me as if he hadn’t just heard me say he was a murderer.

“A hooker? ah! “He’s the one who was there during the 60th birthday banquet for Lord Sangang.”

“yes. “I think I saw the warrior a few times on my way back and forth.”

I’ve never seen the warriors in detail, but they looked familiar, like faces I’d seen several times.

“okay. I’ve seen you a few times too. So I’m even more disappointed now.”

Musa said while glaring at me.

“Disappointment?”

“Even if you repay a favor with vengeance, it is still oily. How dare you be in the same league as the criminal who assassinated the Lord of the Sangsan!”

The warrior leader pulled out his sword and aimed it at his throat.

These days, I often end up with a knife at my throat.

It’s not that I’m embarrassed to have a knife in my throat, I’m just dumbfounded. Even though we are a martial arts group, do civilians often get stabbed in the throat? Or am I just unlucky.

If you were in a situation where you pulled out a knife and got hit back, it would be less unfair. Even if you stayed still, the knife would still be stuck in your neck. I feel unfair, so I have to learn martial arts.

When I glanced sideways towards Cheonsalseong, I saw his hand sneakily moving under the table again.

“I will solve it, so please stay still.”

I looked at the warrior and spoke in an audible voice.

“What is he saying now!”

Perhaps because the warrior did not understand Korean, he pointed his sword further at my neck.

“I was so excited that I spoke Korean. sorry. But what about the murderer? “Who are you talking about?”

I slightly pulled my neck back to increase the distance between me and the knife and spoke in a curious tone.

“Hey, that bitch! Isn’t she the bitch who assassinated the Lord of the Sangsan! Now I see it’s true! Black hair and red eyes! “That’s exactly what I heard!”

Other warriors also began to surround Cheon So-hee.

“no! Musa! This is my hometown sister. “He’s an assassin.”

“Acrobat Okbun! Are you going to stay still like that? Or would you at least pull out a sword?”

The leader of the samurai ignored my words and urged me, pointing at Cheonsalseong Fortress with his sword.

The situation is not good. If things continue like this, there will eventually be blood.

“wait a minute!”

I got caught between the castle and the sword.

“Are we protecting the assassin now because we are part of the same gang?”

“no! My sister from my hometown can’t speak Jungwon properly! “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

“what?”

“You suddenly pointed a knife at me like that, and the kid was so shocked that he froze!”

I calmly prepared to draw my sword at any time and acted like a woman who was too scared to do anything.

When I looked at Cheonsalseong, it was looking at me with an expressionless face. okay. Just remain expressionless like that.

I do the packaging.

“Don’t lie! This bitch is Okbun from the acrobatic troupe. “I heard that kid was good at speaking in the middle class!”

“I heard it too! That orangca cub says that orangka is called jade! ”

A customer nearby who was watching the incident with interest testified.

ha. I do it in various ways. Stay still. They even have to testify there. Are you saying that by bending your arms inwards, you will favor the midfielders over the barbarians?

okay. We are strangers and barbarians.

“I guess that bitch’s name is Okbun. “You were in league with the assassin, after all!”

The leader of the warriors looked at me with a triumphant expression.

I made a plan in advance for people who would say things like that.

“It is true that my hometown sister’s name is Okbun. But Okbun is an assassin?”

First, let’s break down the logic of the name Okbun.

.

“With red eyes and black hair, is there any other assassin named Okbun?”

“The name Okbun is a common name in Joseon. There were three Okbun in our neighborhood and five in the next neighborhood. Okbunah on that street! “When I shout, there are more people looking back than the warriors here!”

“Why do you use such names so often! “Don’t lie!”

How can a person’s name be Cheonokbun? What does that mean? You racist bastard.

“no. Musa. Think about it. “I haven’t been to Jungwon a lot, but the name Okbun is as common as Soso in Jungwon.”

“Soso?”

“yes. Soso. Just look at the Murim family. Zhuge Soso, Dangsoso, Moyong Soso, Namgung Soso, Peng Soso, Hwangbo Soso. Soso! “If you just call my name, wouldn’t five or six people turn around even if the Murim Dynasty couldn’t attend the meeting?”

“That’s right.”

If you set up the Martial Arts Soso that I’ve seen on the parade ground, you’d be able to do one or two basic rounds. It must be a very common name.

The captain also nodded when I heard the analogy. thank you. Small cows.

When I glanced to the side, I saw that the other warriors also had expressions of confusion on their faces. First, pass step 1.

“I understand that the name Okbun is common in Joseon! But! This kid has red eyes and black hair! “It’s very similar to the assassin’s facial expression.”

How many black-haired, red-eyed people named Okbun are there in the world?

Just one person.

“Even in Joseon, there are people with colorful eyes, like red, not black. Now, if you look at the central plains, the warrior has red eyes and the characteristic of being small and has drawn his sword.”

How can people who have never been to Joseon confirm the truth?

I looked at the warrior and then shifted my gaze to Cheonsalseong. It was clearly an expressionless face, but when I put it that way, it looked like it was scared.

“No, that’s it.”

“And look at this neck.”

I raised my head and showed my neck.

“neck?”

“At the top of Gapsu, I was almost decapitated by a killer. “It was fortunate that other warriors came after him at that moment, but he almost died.”

“uh? I’ve heard that too. “One of the artists discovered Salsu and almost died.”

A warrior next to me testified to my words. thanks. This world isn’t that harsh yet.

“That’s me. So, warrior, please think about it too. As the warrior said, let’s say I was in league with Salsu. Then, based on common sense, if the assassin found me, he should have just ignored me and run away. “Why would you try to kill me?”

“That’s right.”

The leader of the warriors agreed. I quickly looked around the guest room.

Inside the guesthouse, I could see guests watching from afar to see what was going to happen, and the owner of the guesthouse paying attention to us as he flicked his abacus to see how he could claim compensation in case of damage to the property.

Among them, I paid attention to the owner of the inn. A man looking at us with an anxious face. In the martial arts world, the owner of a guesthouse is said to shed tears of blood trying to restore it to its original state because he is a guesthouse and no one compensates him every day.

Public opinion is not on the side of the barbarians.

However, if the owner of that bar reacts, I think I can turn public opinion on my side.

Then you should try it.

I took a deep breath to speak loudly, like I did when I was working as a plumber.

“I mean it!!! This is the person who paid condolences there for a few days and even received a gift from the chief mourner to thank him!!! But am I in the same league as Salsu? There are still assassins in Chilgok-hyeon who should have killed the Lord of the Sangdan and run away? Do you think that makes sense!!!”

The guest shouted loudly for him to leave.

“Now why are you suddenly screaming?”

“It’s because it’s unfair! It’s been a while since I met my sister from my hometown, and she was scared because she couldn’t speak Jungwon. I almost got killed by a murderer, but the warriors said we were part of the same gang!! This situation!! “It’s because it’s so unfair!”

“Stop breaking things for no reason! What are you doing with a live person? hey! “Try to stop me too!”

The owner of the inn, who listened to my logic, quickly dissuaded the situation. If there is a fight and the property is damaged, it is the owner who loses.

“Oooh. “We are catching a live person from the top of Gapsu.”

“hey! “That salesman has only been working in Chilgok County for a few days, and is he in league with some kind of assassin?”

“Are you trying to evade the Gapsu Sangdan by having a loved one in mourning?”

Perhaps they were regular customers of this inn, and they all began to boo at the words of the inn owner.

“No, that’s true. under! good. I think you have a point, so let’s go to the top of Gapsu together. “I will take you without drawing my sword.”

The leader of the warriors was embarrassed by the sudden change in public opinion and tried to negotiate with me.

When they are at an advantage, they draw their swords, but when they are at a disadvantage, they try to negotiate somewhere.

“Are we sinners? Let’s go there. Just stay here, warriors, and send one person to bring in anyone from the acrobatic troupe. “You can see that Salsu and I have the same face.”

Even as a martial arts fan, I can see that Cheonsalseong’s reverse use techniques and Chukgolgong are at an incredible level.

He is at a level comparable to Shintu, a legendary thief sometimes called the Treasure Goblin of Martial Arts. However, if you are taken to the top of the government and interrogated, your true identity may be revealed. In times like this, you have to use it.

“Hmm. Great! “Then let’s do it.”

The leader of the samurai agreed and ordered one samurai to go to the top of Gapsu.

—–

“no! Why would this friend be with Salsu? We were drinking and playing together, but there was a misunderstanding. “This woman is also a different person from Okbun.”

The person who was called in was the acrobat guy who had been drinking with me that night. Although he seemed a bit offended by being interrogated for the assassination case, he still actively supported me.

“I guess there was a misunderstanding. “Let’s go.”

In the end, perhaps thinking it was a misunderstanding, the leader of the samurai glared at the bald, pot-bellied man who had reported the incident and then left.

“no. Please take a look.”

I saw them off at the door of the guesthouse without showing that the crisis had been overcome.

No apology until the end. Dirty Murim people.

After seeing the warriors off, I sighed in relief and went up to the second floor of Cheonsalseong Fortress.

tired. When I get inside the room, I’ll just rest on the bed.

As I arrived at the door of the room, Cheonsalseong, who was ahead of me, turned around and looked at me.

“Why did you help me?”

Cheonsalseong looked up at me with an expressionless face.

Because if you mess up, you’ll be fucked.

“Why? Sohee. “My sister is in danger, so of course my brother should step in.”

“I didn’t need your help. “Those guys are no match for me.”

I guess so. If the nature of a tiger were to kill those creatures, they wouldn’t even be rabbits.

The problem is that even if a tiger fights a rabbit, the bug next to it gets trampled to death.

“Sohee. I don’t know how you lived until now. “But I can’t just sit back and watch my sister commit murder right in front of my eyes.”

“Only you almost got hurt.”

“If I get a little hurt and you don’t commit murder, I will do it again at any time.”

If you can prevent a bomb from exploding with just a few scratches, you should do it.

Cheonsalseong heard my words and his pupils wavered a little.

why? Are you frustrated that they won’t keep killing people?

He suddenly lowered his head in front of me and muttered something.

“go….”

“huh?”

“…Wh-Woah”

What is gore? I also hate dried fish.

bang! Sohee Cheon said only what she had to say and went into the guest room.

what.

hey! Why are you locking the door?

I paid twice as much for this room, so why are you locking the door?

I have to go in! You just go away!

I want to rest too!
