How a Black-Haired Barbarian Survived the Labyrinth in Another World-Chapter 77: Shhh!
Three days passed.
A quiet evening.
Jung Yu-shin was sitting on the chair at the inn counter.
Strangely, there weren’t many guests today.
Squeak.
The inn door opened and Deulchangko came in and sat across from Jung Yu-shin.
Jung Yu-shin took out a bottle of liquor and a glass from the cupboard and placed it in front of Deulchangko.
“Deulchangko, what happened?”
“Most of the compensation that Lord Ska requested has arrived at the monster dismantling center. I brought the poisonous plant here as you said.”
Deulchangko placed a pouch on the counter.
“It’s not a poisonous plant that takes your life. It’s the kind that causes paralysis when you squeeze the juice and ingest it. It’s also said to cause dulled senses.”
Jung Yu-shin took the pouch and put it under the counter.
“Thank you for your hard work. And did you find out how credible Oswald’s words are?”
“That’ll probably take a little longer.”
Is that so?
“Why doesn’t Oswald come forward himself?”
“Didn’t Oswald tell you last time? There is an unspoken rule throughout the Eastern Sector. Inter-clan conflict is prohibited. The biggest reason is that conflicts that are apparent on the surface cause chaos in the Eastern Sector.”
“Even if your clan was harmed?”
“You have to prove that you were harmed, but that’s hard for a powerless clan. Even if you prove it and get compensation, there could be retaliation behind the scenes.”
“It sounds like a powerful guy is acting out atrocities openly.”
“That’s right.”
Jung Yu-shin scratched his head. He thought he was beating around the bush.
The beginning of all this.
“But is there a rumor that you’ve seen the Fifth Prince?”
Jung Yu-shin looked around and asked quietly.
The stray nose poked its head in and opened its mouth slightly.
“We haven’t gotten any clues so far. It’s strange.”
He thought of the two people who came to the inn. He thought they were high-ranking officials.
“Is the boy and knight I saw last time still here? I haven’t seen them recently.”
“They stayed until Ska-nim was in a coma for a week and then left for somewhere.”
“Could they be the Fifth Prince and his escort knights?”
“I had that thought when I observed them, but they were a little different.”
“In what way?”
“Aren’t royals usually picky about their food and clothing? But they ate the inn food without hesitation. They didn’t really care about their clothes getting dirty. They even spoke politely.”
“How do they look? Do they look alike?”
Sca-nim shook his head.
“I confirmed it because Aldain showed me the portrait. The fifth prince’s hair color was dark blond. The boy we saw had brown hair, right? The shape of his face was different, too. In fact, this is the decisive reason.”
Certainly.
The escort knight had green hair and wore old plate armor.
The boy had brown hair and wore a robe.
In fact, there are cases where a person’s dignity is revealed through unconscious actions even when their appearance changes. There are also cases where it is the opposite. I didn’t think that someone of high status would be that thorough.
I trusted the eyes of the saddle nose.
Besides, I heard that he had left quite a while ago, so there was no point in asking any more.
Jeong Yu-shin sighed deeply.
‘This is a total dud.’
The heavens are so indifferent. If we work this hard, shouldn’t they at least give us a clue to be fair?
No.
I shook my head to suppress my discontent.
Even if I think about it now, there is no answer to the problem.
He made a conclusion and changed direction.
“Dulchangko, send all but 5 gold coins to Edel. I don’t know if he can buy back the pharmacy he sold for 25 gold coins.”
“Yes?”
“And send all the herbs to Edel.”
Dulchangko’s face hardened.
“···Ska-nim, you don’t have to go this far.”
Jeong Yu-shin grinned.
“This time, it’s not free.”
“What do you mean?”
“We need good potions and herbs for this fight. I feel like we won’t be easy opponents like last time. We should go in a direction that minimizes damage as much as possible.”
“Oh, I understand. Edel-nim’s health has improved a lot.”
“Good. This time, it’s more about trading than helping. Dulchangko, you tell Edel well.”
“Yes. I understand. But.”
Deulchanko hesitated as if he still had something to say.
“Tell me more comfortably.”
“Is Ska-nim’s party also going to join this fight?”
“No. It’s the East District’s dark district. I have to handle it alone.”
“Isn’t it hard to do this alone? I’ll help you.”
“I have an idea, but I don’t know what will happen. Let’s just wait and see. Leave the items Oswald sent at the monster dismantling center for a while.”
“Yes.”
It was night and the deadline had arrived.
I sent Deulchanko back to the monster dismantling center and helped Tarman and Anne clean up the inn hall and kitchen.
I sent Anne and Tarman back to their lodgings and Jeong Yu-shin was left alone at the inn counter.
I stared blankly at the ceiling while pouring a glass of wine.
The dark ceiling didn’t tell me anything.
Thinking about it, it was truly a strange fate.
I fell into another world. Somehow, he ended up acting as the innkeeper.
In martial arts terms, he was a janitor who ran the inn instead of me.
Clap!!!
He slapped me and stopped thinking.
“You’re laughing alone and then slapped me? What are you doing?”
At that moment.
Oswald showed his body in the darkness.
Visit ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com for the 𝑏est n𝘰vel reading experience.
Veil of Darkness’s imprint ability.
Jung Yu-shin pointed to the counter without blinking.
Oswald walked over and sat down across from Jung Yu-shin.
“Master, what about the alcohol?”
Oswald asked.
“Let’s hear the plan first.”
Oswald explained the plan. It was a unique plan, perhaps because his friend was crazy.
Jung Yu-shin got up from his seat, took out a bottle and a glass, placed them in front of Oswald, and poured them.
Slurp.
Jung Yu-shin opened his mouth as he filled the glass.
“Using the 5th Prince’s nanny as bait to lure the assassins out of the labyrinth city? Will the other party be fooled that easily?”
“If they don’t? Isn’t there no other way?”
“By the way, how many assassins are there?”
“25.”
“That’s a lot. Do you want me to kill them all by myself?”
“Whew. We have a few mercenaries that we paid a lot of money to hire. They are tight-lipped. But they can’t come out directly. All we do is hide our identities from afar and shoot bolts.”
“The captain?”
“Quelin Kalheid. Dark elf race. Known for getting involved in underworld conflicts and getting a piece of the action. Not a very good personality, but he’s as clean as I am at getting things done. His imprint is Fast Weapon. Crow Sight. Hyper Sensitivity.”
“More details.”
Oswald tilted his glass to Jung Yu-shin’s request and explained.
Fast Weapon.
A engraving that allows you to swing your weapon quickly. The characteristic of this engraving is that the speed increases as the number of times you swing your weapon increases during battle.
Crow Sight.
An engraving that sharpens your vision like a crow.
Hyper Sensitivity is an engraving of hypersensitive senses.
An engraving that amplifies the five senses coming from the outside. A double-edged sword with clear advantages and disadvantages that can be detrimental if misused.
‘Is this a quick swordsman in martial arts?’
He slapped me again today because I thought I was comparing myself to martial arts too much.
Zaaaaaaak!!!
Oswald stared blankly, but he didn’t care. The poor clown had no way of knowing his suffering.
Jeong Yu-shin stroked his flushed cheek and fell into thought.
Even if the heavens helped him get all those assassins out, there was one more obstacle.
Dark elf with crazy dog imprint.
And 25 assassins.
If they spread out and fired bolts in all directions, there was no chance of survival.
Can you handle it?
You have to finish it off cleanly to avoid retaliation. You have to kill it.
“This dark elf. Can I really kill him?”
“Whew. I’m dying from that headache. I don’t see a way out.”
Oswald, with a pale complexion, scratched his head and took a cigarette out of his pocket and put it in his mouth.
“Can’t you kill him?”
“There was already friction once. If we get attacked, won’t people suspect me first? You buddy. Where are you going with my imprint like this? And that dark elf, with his hypersensitive imprint, he’ll get caught right away.”
“Take care of yourself"
"Look at that.”
“I can’t put my family in danger just to save myself.”
“Are you a clown who loves his family?”
He really is a pitiful guy.
Wasn’t the crazy laughter he showed in the labyrinth actually the boiling cry of a father who lost his mind while trying to feed his family?
“I understand. But why is the plan so full of holes?”
“Hoooooo.”
Oswald blew out cigarette smoke without answering.
“Our inn is non-smoking. Get out.”
Oswald emptied his glass and stood up.
“See you later.”
“Hold on.”
Jung Yoo-shin stopped Oswald as he was leaving.
“Why?”
“Leave one cigarette behind.”
“This is expensive.”
“Really? Then two.”
Oswald glared at Jung Yu-shin as if he was going to kill him, then sighed and put down two cigarettes from his arms.
“Go. Come back after you’ve come up with a plan.”
“···Fuck.”
Oswald swore and left the inn.
Jung Yu-shin sat down alone again and racked his brain.
He couldn’t see any way out.
If I had just one cheat code, I could wipe everything out.
He stopped thinking. His head was hot.
Jung Yu-shin went into the kitchen and brought out a late-night snack.
Roast chicken that Anne had made before she left work.
It was a whole chicken that had been well-massaged with herbs and olive oil and fried to a crispy exterior.
Jung Yu-shin tore off a leg and put it in his mouth, chewing.
The salty, well-seasoned chicken exterior and the juicy, tender meat danced in his mouth.
“Hmm. This is sex.”
It tasted even better because I ate it late at night.
They say that if you eat something late at night, it’s poison.
Poison?
I forgot.
I deliberately received poison from Dulchangko to test the imprint I got this time, but I was so busy that I couldn’t think.
I wiped the chicken fat off my lips and tilted the bottle to fill my glass.
Gulp.
The clear dwarf liquor poured into the glass.
Jung Yu-shin took the poison from under the counter and tore it into small pieces and put it in the glass.
And.
[Venom Protection]
Imprint activated.
Jung Yu-shin looked around his body. He felt his magic power being consumed, but there was no noticeable change.
He picked up the glass and took a sip.
“Hmm.”
Don't you feel anything?
Should I wait a little longer?
He brought one more glass and placed it on the counter.
There were three glasses on the counter.
He tore up the poisonous plant into small pieces and put them in the glasses and poured the alcohol.
At that moment.
Creak.
The inn door opened and two people came in.
A boy and a knight.
Their appearances were shabby, as if they had rolled over somewhere.
Did they enter a labyrinth?
The two approached the counter as if possessed.
"Master, can I stay for one night?"
The knight said.
"Yes."
"Can I have a meal?"
"That might be a bit difficult. I'm sorry."
"I see..."
The boy was staring at the whole chicken.
"I ate one leg, but would you like this?"
"I won't refuse. How much is it?"
"No problem. Just eat it."
“Is that okay?”
“Yes.”
The boy and the knight began to eat the chicken in ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) a hurry. They looked like they had starved for a long time.
The knight and the boy, who had been eating for a long time, thumped their chests as if their throats were choking.
“M...master, something to drink.”
“Yes.”
Jeong Yu-shin went into the kitchen.
There must be some fruit juice left somewhere here. Since the fox Luna often came to perform, Anne and Tarman had prepared some left.
“Where is it?”
While rummaging through the kitchen.
A voice whispered outside.
“···It’s still early.”
“It’s okay. I’m all grown up. Just pay the price. The owner is very kind, so I understand generously···.”
“But···this grass.”
The boy’s voice, heard occasionally, was clear.
“I found it.”
As he left the kitchen with two wooden cups filled with fruit juice, the boy and the knight were sitting there.
“Here they are. Huh?”
The glasses were empty.
The knight scratched his head and said.
“I’m sorry. I drank a little because I was in a hurry. What’s the price?”
The knight’s body stiffened and he fell off the chair.
Crap!!!
The boy looked at him and stared blankly at Jung Yu-shin.
“Ah... Uh-huh.”
Soon, the boy fell over the chair as well.
Crap!!!
“Why?!”
Jung Yu-shin panicked and approached the other side of the counter. The boy and the knight were trembling.
“I... are you okay?”
“Your Majesty!”
The knight shouted.
Prince?
Jung Yu-shin’s body stiffened.
“···A prince?”
Jung Yu-shin asked with a blank expression.
The knight's face turned pale. He realized his mistake. He couldn't deny it.
"Fifth Prince?"
Jung Yu-shin asked while looking at the boy. The boy's eyes grew as big as lanterns.
"···Did Newga Shaju? Second brother? How did you do it?"
The boy's pronunciation became slurred as if his tongue was stiffening due to the paralyzing poison.
A sudden situation.
Jung Yu-shin grabbed his head, unable to do anything.
At that moment.
An inspiration flashed through his mind.
Poison and the fifth prince.
"Ah!"
How to overcome this predicament.
As expected, the heavens do not abandon those who try?
A way to drag 25 assassins and the Dark Elf leader out of the labyrinth city and send them all at once.
I don’t know if it’s possible. But it was worth a try.
Jeong Yu-shin quietly unbuckled his belt.
The knight’s eyes grew fierce.
“What the heck.. yuck!!! yuck!!!”
Jeong Yu-shin gagged the knight’s mouth with his belt.
Looking to the side, the boy was trembling. He couldn’t tell if it was from the paralyzing poison or fear.
“Hhhhhh!!!”
When Jung Yu-shin looked at him, the fifth prince let out a strange scream.
Jung Yu-shin looked around. There was nothing to cover the fifth prince’s mouth.
At that moment.
He saw a whole chicken left over on the counter. Almost all of it was eaten, and only the chicken breast remained.
He ripped off the chicken breast on the counter and stuffed a handful into the boy’s mouth.
“Ugh!!! Ugh!!!”
“If you spit out the chicken breast, I’ll put something harder in it.”
The boy’s body convulsed. Fortunately, he didn’t spit out the chicken breast.
Jung Yu-shin looked into the boy’s face.
His pupils were dilated as much as they could because of fear.
“Prince.”
Prince.
It’s a good sound.
Jung Yu-shin snickered, stroking the boy’s head.
His brown hair flowed through his fingers.
“Shh!”
Jung Yoo-shin put his finger to his lips.
The boy's eyes grew wide with fear.
And.
Shhhhhh.
The 5th prince's pants were soaking wet.
