Chapter 533
< Return of the God of War Side Story Episode 33 >
“Haa… How long do I really have to be like this?”
The group traveling towards Hubei all looked exhausted. Since I couldn’t go to the fastest road, I had to travel by carriage through a small road. As the road was not paved, fatigue and pain were not a problem.
It’s been going on like this for 15 days.
Even if you go down this path, you may encounter unwanted encounters.
“Haa…”
At that moment, Jang Sam-tae, who was driving the carriage, sighed.
Although he couldn’t see anything around him, he frowned as if he had seen something and glanced back at Nangung Sohye.
She too was seen frowning.
You’ve probably seen the same thing.
What number is this?
“I think it’s been more than ten times?”
“I’m really fed up…”
The two people let out a small sigh.
And at that moment, a dozen shadows suddenly appeared far away. They looked as if they were trying to stop a carriage on the road.
“Stand there! “This road is for us to hide?!”
A bandit holding a large sword appeared and shouted cheerfully. It is so loud that the entire mountain is shaking.
However, before he could finish speaking, Jang Sam-tae threw himself off the coach seat and broke his face, causing the beaten bandit to fall to the ground.
The bandit fell down and trembled on the floor.
“What have you been buying so much these days?”
“Isn’t it natural that security is bad because the martial arts world has been so unsightly lately?”
At that time, Namgung Sohye slowly withdrew her hand and opened her mouth.
Around her, she saw about a dozen bandits lying helplessly. The moment Jang Sam-tae smashed the leader’s face, Namgung So-hye, who jumped in with him, overpowered those around him.
Although it is said that she overpowered those who were relatively weak, if you think about the movements of Jang Sam-tae, who is the fastest, you can feel that Namgung So-hye’s skills were beyond average.
“Hehe, you really see it a lot. “Don’t you feel like you’re seeing all the bandits and thieves you’ll ever see in your life?”
At that time, Namgungcheon let out a small sigh.
Public security in Moorim is not good.
As the Murim League and the Cheondohoe are concerned about the rampaging Cheonjigyo, bandits appear from all over and swarms of thieves take advantage of this.
Since there is only one government in one county, it is impossible to control it, so powerful bandits and thieves run amok, and those who have been exploited and robbed do the same thing with swords to make a living.
This phenomenon is repeating itself.
“This is really nice. “Now that the political faction is split in two, there is no such thing as this, tsk tsk.”
“Hehehe – the Demonic Cult couldn’t have been worse than this.”
“what?! “Is there a place as quiet as ours?!”
“I heard… Is the Demonic Cult as good as it used to be? “They say it’s shaking from its roots without you.”
At that moment, Sadohak’s cheeks trembled.
I quickly turned my gaze to Namgung So-hye, who had the most information about the martial arts group, and she looked away and slightly nodded.
“Huh… Hmph! Still, things like this don’t cause a fuss. How much power will it take to be infested with bandits? Isn’t that right, Samtae?”
“Eh? What… is that so? “I’m fine…”
At that moment, Jang Sam-tae was embarrassed and looked away.
In times like this, it is best to be quiet as much as possible.
This is because I know that the moment you take someone’s side, it’s inevitable that one side will be destroyed. So naturally, I turned my head and looked at Dansomi and changed the topic.
“What are you… doing?”
“Can you see something over there?”
Dansomi glanced upward and looked at something. Although it was vague, I could catch a glimpse of something that looked like a building.
I thought maybe it was a wild vegetable.
Dan So-mi, who confirmed this, glanced at Dan Woo-hyeon.
You don’t know the meaning of your eyes.
Since he is such a kind-hearted child, he probably wants to see if there is anyone who can save him. So Dan Woo-hyeon smiled and nodded.
“Go check.”
“yes! “I’ll be back.”
As Dan So-mi moved with a grin on her face, Namgoong So-hye, who was nearby, naturally followed her. In some ways, it feels like a babysitter, but in another way, it feels like sisters.
However, as I watched Dan So-mi caress her head and caress her, I could not erase the feeling of a mother-daughter relationship.
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled as he watched and stretched out his hand towards the fallen bandits. When I searched my belongings, I found that the pockets of my backpack were thick.
It looks like he made quite a lot of money.
“Anyway, with this… my travel expenses have increased even more. “It’s a good thing.”
“What do you do when it increases? “I can’t write…”
At Jang Sam-tae’s words, Dan Woo-hyeon shook his head.
Everyone has a lot of complaints.
It wasn’t because I wanted it to happen, and even if it did, things might not necessarily go in a bad direction. Isn’t it true that human life is such that one cannot know the future at all?
“do not worry. “There will be a place to use it soon.”
“haha. Yes, what the matriarch said is correct. If you go a little further, there is a big village, so you can go there. Isn’t that right, head of the house?”
Jang Sam-tae’s eyes widened at the sudden remark. These people are probably the only ones who can say that they went into the village with confidence even after doing something like that.
Well, it’s natural since you have that level of skill, right?
So can you eat delicious things?
Just in case, I thought I should go to a local store and buy high-quality salt and spices. Also, I will stop by the guesthouse and order the most delicious dishes.
Jang Sam-tae clenched his fists and made a promise.
“But why can’t he go?”
“yes?”
“No, wouldn’t it be most certain to destroy your appearance? “Because there was a guy who rushed at me, saying he was an evil enemy or something.”
“…? “So… so?”
“So you have to guard the carriage. “If we go together, won’t we be caught up in it?”
“Hehehe- I’m sorry. “I’ll bring you some good drinks and food, so just wait a moment.”
Jang Sam-tae was momentarily speechless.
I looked at Dan Woo-hyeon with a dumbfounded expression. Are all the words spoken just now true? When I gave him a look, he calmly nodded without saying anything.
“What a punishment! Are you kidding, really!?”
Jang Sam-tae’s shout spread far and wide throughout the mountain, and at the same time, he shouted! The sound of a watermelon breaking resounded violently.
“thank you! Thank you so much!”
“How can I thank you…”
Many people knelt in front of Dansomi with tears in their eyes. All of them had wounds here and there, probably from not being able to eat properly and from hard work.
Just when they thought they would never be able to escape from this hell-like place, Dansomi appeared and opened the door to the prison where they were imprisoned, so it was as if they were given a new life.
So the joy will be indescribable.
“No, no! You don’t have to thank me… everyone else has done it. “I just…”
But Dan So-mi, perhaps feeling a little uncomfortable at the sight of people lowering their heads, smiled awkwardly and waved her hand.
Everything was done by Jang Sam-tae and Namgung So-hye.
Since it was the two who took down the most dangerous bandits, it is only right that all the credit should go to them.
But people don’t care one bit.
From the first time Dan Woo-hyeon ordered the person to be rescued from the mountain, the two people have performed the feat and Dan So-mi has been listening to the words of gratitude.
Unable to overcome the awkwardness, I glanced at Namgung Sohye, and she just shrugged her shoulders and didn’t say anything.
At times like this, I wish they would say something to help me, but Dan Woo-hyeon and Namgung So-hye just watched as if they had made a promise.
“Uh… Anyway, I’m glad you’re okay. You can do whatever you want with the money and food in the wild vegetables. Don’t worry about us… and again…”
“No… I’m grateful that you even saved us…” “
That’s right. “If it weren’t for you, we would have been really… dark… But you even gave us money and food…”
Dan So-mi was at a loss as to what more to say.
Jiyak is good at these things, but since he wasn’t here, I couldn’t say anything easily. Why do I feel so uncomfortable when I am clearly being thanked?
Can you see the eyes of those people?
Their eyes and facial expressions are filled with respect and awe, as if they are looking at something that they seem unable to reach even if they stretch out their hands.
It’s very burdensome.
It’s rough.
Dansomi slowly took a step back.
I felt like I had already seen countless people with those eyes and expressions on my two hands.
Without realizing it, I secretly looked away.
“Okay then, let’s end this….”
“Ah…! Ha… at least it’s a respectable thing!”
“Jo…respect? I’m not that great of a person. Ho ho ho.”
Dan So-mi hurriedly left the scene, leading Namgung So-hye. Even as I was hurriedly escaping from the mountain shelter, people’s words of thanks rang out from behind me.
The more people’s voices were heard, the faster Dansomi started to walk, and in an instant, their voices could be heard from far away like echoes.
Only then did Dansomi breathe a sigh of relief.
“Hoho, soon there will be a rumor that you are a martial arts hero.”
“What a sister! That’s not true. Moreover, my uncle and my sister did it all… but I didn’t do anything.”
Looking at Namgoong Sohye, who was smiling, Dan Somi let out a small sigh. It feels like they are being given too much credit for simply doing something to save people.
Even though it wasn’t something I was specifically hoping for.
“Everyone probably thought they were standing in front of death. But you came and held out your hand. “Of course you will feel grateful.”
“I know that, but… it’s still a burden.”
“Hohoho- you’ll get used to it someday. But you shouldn’t take all those things for granted.”
“Ha ha ha… Is there anyone who can take this for granted?”
Dan So-mi, with slumped shoulders, smiled weakly and shook her head. A person who can take things like this for granted?
If so, I would like to meet you.
