Episode 303. Passage to Luoyang (1)
Open wave.
A member of the old file room.
To be precise, it was more like a gang of beggars.
‘In terms of intelligence, there is no one comparable to the whole Moorim.’
Since there are so many beggars possessed by the open faction, and there are no places without them, there is no choice but to have a lot of stories to come in naturally.
And this young man in front of me…
is one of the elders of the open faction, better known by the nickname ‘Twelve Faces’ rather than his real name.
It is ‘Ma Hye-ryang’.
Originally, he would have been over 70 years old, but he was able to maintain such a youthful face thanks to his martial arts ability to change his face.
But it wasn’t just because this man was an elder of the open faction that Jinhyeok was interested.
‘Meeting like this really reminds me of the old days.’
Ma Hye-ryang was an elder of the Open faction and at the same time a spy who turned his back on the right faction and received the order of the Cheonma Shinkyo.
In the past, I had a hard time in Moorim thanks to this nerd.
It was only at the last minute that he realized that he was a traitor, but by then it was all too late.
Because the Moorim Maeng collapsed and a tragedy occurred in which each other doubted each other and stabbed each other in the back.
Still, after trying to live and die, I was able to achieve the condition to break through the stairs, but I did not forget the memories I had experienced at the time.
‘I’ll be able to repay the debt at that time with this opportunity.’
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up.
As long as we have already discovered the identity and ulterior motives of the opponent, the initiative in all situations from now on is completely on our side.
Above all, you shouldn’t be clumsy with someone who has the ‘Eye of Gluttony’.

[Copy condition: Illusion is the factor that determined all the rise and fall of mankind. Currently, Ma Hye-ryang is trying to capture or eliminate you while hiding his identity. Give him faith that his plan is going smoothly and acquire at least 3 or more opportunities or important information. If you do that, you will be able to copy one of Ma Hye-ryang’s unique abilities and skills.]
After all, there is nothing to say other than that ‘Eye of Gluttony’ is a scam.
Ma Hye-ryang, who hid his identity, would think he was perfectly disguised, but…
‘I’ll make you completely mistaken and then use it to your heart’s content.’
I am confident in pretending to be innocent.
Jinhyuk shrugged his shoulders pretending not to know.
“There’s room to try a few things. Even so, I’m familiar with the barriers and the types of jinbeop.”
“Hmm. It must be difficult at the level of one’s opinion?
“That’s what I’m going to do myself. The problem is… What’s the matter with you, why are you trying to cross the wall without permission at this hour? Why are you talking to me pretending to be friendly?”
Sharp reaction.
Allowing too easy access only arouses suspicion.
It is only when you push and pull appropriately that you release your guard.
“Haha. It’s not that I have a bad plan. I also came out to beg for money, but I missed the time to go in. What is it? Then, just in time, I saw you.”
“It means you have to go inside each other.”
“It’s like that.”
Ma Hye-ryang smiled and nodded.
He immediately brought up the main topic, as if he thought he had developed a close relationship.
“Actually, I know of a secret passageway into the castle. I was about to give up because it was dangerous alone. How… do you have any thoughts?”
Bait was sprayed.
Hmm….
If it was originally planned, I was going to take on a new challenge while destroying Jin, but…
Since Ma Hye-ryang appeared, the plan must be completely revised.
‘I must seize the opportunity to copy the skill.’
I don’t know anything else, but Ma Hye-ryang’s ‘Infimyeongu’ is helpful in many ways.
Being able to change the face was a huge advantage in itself.
‘If it turns into a chuhonsayeong later, I’ll be able to roll Cheonyuseong around. I have to treat him like a dog.’
The thought of training the employees already made my heart throb.
“Okay. Let’s do that.”
“That’s great. I think it will be very reassuring if you are with me.”
“Ah! Hold on. Can I ask you one favor before I go?”
“Please?”
“I have a colleague. I want him to go with me too. Will it be all right?”
“…”
Ma Hye-ryang looked suspiciously for a moment.
It must be because they were instinctively wary of new variables interfering.
But it was only for a short while.
“That’s how you do it. Well, judging from the atmosphere, it seems that if you refuse, the older brother won’t come.”
“Thank you. Then, please wait here for a moment.”
Jinhyeok, who got away from Ma Hye-ryang, found a moderately secluded place and hid himself.
Let’s inject magic power.
Whoops!
The ‘Ring of Braham’ he was wearing reacted.
[The seal is broken.]
“Sah, it was a real mistake to put wasabi in the lettuce wrap. I said I’m sorry over and over again!”
Ellis appeared with both hands covering her head.
＊＊＊
This is a brief explanation of what happened.
“Ohhh. So. You mean you need Jim’s help?”
As soon as I said a favor, the way I spoke and even my personality changed.
The bridge of the nose is not soaring, and it is poised to pierce the sky.
“I’m sure I’ll be careful, but he’s a cunning guy. Just in case, I want you to look behind me.”
“So you’re saying you’re going to use the world of beauty.”
“…huh?”
“So, isn’t that the point of stealing the other person’s soul with the beauty and dignity of this body? Well, men can’t come to their senses when it comes to Jim. Anyway, Jim is also a woman with many sins. He doesn’t even know that he is a rose with many thorns. Bees keep flying.”
Alice exclaimed as she looked at her face reflected in the stream.
okay. Well… if you want to think so, you should think so.
At most, it seems that it will only be seen as a granddaughter having a fun party…
but there is no need to go against the Queen’s planting by saying that.
“So, are you helping me?”
“The contractor speaks so earnestly, but Jim can’t turn away from that request. But, the ball is the ball, and the law of the living is the law.”
Alice spread her palms toward Jinhyeok.
Of course, the lord of Ataraxia, who is overflowing with money, doesn’t ask for money.
It just means that you want to do something that suits your taste.
“Salmon sushi and buckwheat noodles. I’ll buy you cheese pork cutlet as well.”
“Write some more.”
“For dessert, Vera also shoots mint chocolate. Especially in the half-gallon size.”
“You want to die? Jim asked for a gift, not poison.”
“It’s tricky…. Okay. Didn’t you say you wanted to go to Lotte World once outside? Would you like to take me there?”
An earthquake occurred in Alice’s pupils at the word amusement park.
A place for humans to play that we only saw on TV.
Unlike the threatening and dangerous amusement park in the tower the other day, it was a place where laughter never stopped.
“Snow…”
“Huh?”
“Get me some snow waffles too.”
“Snow waffles?”
“To be able to eat fluffy, cloud-like white cream, red beans, and bread all at once. I’m really curious about what it will taste like.”
“Poop!”
“Why, why are you laughing! Jim has the right to eat too!”
“No. Yes. Waffles. I’ll buy you as many as you want in every variety.”
With this, the transaction was established.
After a while, the two headed for Ma Hye-ryang.
Alice changed her signature silver hair and red eyes with magic.
Straight black hair and black eyes like obsidian.
The white skin and red lips were typical of the Moorim people.
“This… there must have been a beautiful lady. Is this your fiancé?
“You have the eyes to see something lowly. Jim is a great Atarak… Aww!”
Jinhyeok pinched Alice’s back.
“I’m not from a prestigious family, I’m the youngest daughter of a famous merchant. I haven’t learned martial arts properly, but my stamina is quite usable, so it won’t be an obstacle.”
should not appear strong.
We need to be able to judge that we can use them as hostages if the situation arises.
Only then will it be worth bringing Alice as a hidden card.
“Haha. You have basic physical strength. That’s a relief.”
As expected, Ma Hye-ryang was half-hearted.
Then, with a fishy smile on his face, he stretched out his finger toward the opposite side of the imperial palace.
“Okay. Let’s start soon before it’s too late. You’ll see a passage in a short distance.”
＊＊＊
There was a rocky mountain where Ma Hye-ryang arrived.
It was such an ordinary rocky mountain that I would have passed without thinking if I hadn’t known.
however.
“Brother! Here, please step on exactly where I’m going and follow me.”
A very narrow gap was visible between the shadows and the shadows.
This is the secret passage he was talking about.
‘If it’s this passageway… I wonder if that’s why they led it this way.’
It was one of the few ways to enter the imperial palace by using an expedient method rather than a standard one.
Among them, this is the place where the most notorious creatures in Moorim live.
Jinhyeok smiled.
I couldn’t help but laugh when I could clearly see the opponent’s goal.
that buck
As I went down the aisle, the moonlight I had was completely gone.
Instead, the stones attached to the walls sprinkled a faint glow to light the way.
“I’ll go to the front for a while and check the road. Please stay here for a while. In particular, a lady from a noble house can be dangerous, so don’t follow her. Haha.”
Ma Hye-ryang claimed to be the advance party and disappeared.
“It smells suspicious. Why are you acting alone after asking to come with me?”
“Leave it alone. Let’s see if we can find something here.”
Look hard for a hundred days.
the day will come when i will use it
It was when Jinhyeok was thinking about how to cook that guy.
Tring!
A status window appeared in front of me with a light notification sound.
[A message and an item have arrived from Blacksmith Orun.]
[Are you sure?]
Finally.
The long awaited item has arrived.
Jinhyuk’s heart started beating like crazy.
