127. Rumors in the Storm (8)
While the Korean Peninsula was out of the typhoon’s sphere of influence, many things happened.
First, the elixir sent by the diligent Hyangrok arrived.
I stayed in the tiger mansion the whole time until the elixir arrived.
The white tiger said, “Shouldn’t you watch your friends take the elixir?” and I kind of wanted to see it.
There was another reason, too.
‘Because a lot of things are happening between the nobles, the descendants of Eunho and Heukho are very anxious.’
When I was present at the formal introduction of Heukho to Eunho’s descendants, the children were delighted and grateful to me, but when the time came to leave, they continued to hover around me.
There are some clans that are as easygoing as the White Tiger, but since there are so many things to take care of within the clan, they often spend time with their children, so they seem lonely and anxious.
So, I often stayed at the Tiger Mansion, going back and forth between the main building and Eunho’s annex to see the kids.
Thanks to that, I was able to intuitively witness the elixir arrive and the tigers unbox it.
“I didn’t know Hyangrok’s work was handled this quickly.”
“It came quickly even when I took the elixir.”
“… … .”
Hwang Ji-ho couldn’t refute what I said.
Inside the box with the deer antler logo, there was a larger quantity of elixir than usual, and as soon as I opened the box, a pungent smell wafted out.
The black tiger, who was caught by the white tiger army while trying to escape, covered his nose and made a sad face.
Hwang Ji-ho was moving so slowly that it seemed as if he was under the influence of a slowing effect, and Heuk-ho openly shouted, “I don’t want to eat that!”
Cheong-ho was the only one who calmly accepted his fate.
Cheong-ho, holding the elixir pouch, exuded a sense of solemnity, as if he had received poison.
“The last operation went awry because of my shortcomings. I will take responsibility.”
“You have a great attitude. You haven’t regained the strength you had back then, but you have the spirit of a true hero of the myth world.”
The tiger, who was not worthy of being a powerful member of the mythical world, made an embarrassed expression upon hearing Eunho’s words.
Since Cheongho came out like that and Eunho spoke like that, Hwang Jiho and Heukho couldn’t make a fuss anymore.
“It would be better if we all drink it at the same time. They say that pain is lessened when shared.”
“But don’t use clones, Hwangho.”
“Really? Would it be less if we drink together?”
The white tiger prevented Hwang Ji-ho’s trick in advance, and the black tiger naively believed his words.
The sight of the three tigers holding the elixir pouches was so friendly that I wanted to take a picture.
‘I think Hwang Ji-ho’s elixir will be the most abundant and the worst tasting.’
It seemed like Hyangrok had taken special care of his regular customers.
The moment the three of them began drinking the elixir together, each of them developed a unique ability.
When something terrible attacked his mouth, his defensive instincts might have kicked in and he tried to protect himself.
It’s a shame that even if you do that, the elixir will still taste bad.
“If it tastes really bad, it might make you cry.”
“Ugh… … .”
Cheongho, who had finished drinking the elixir, had tears in his eyes, and Heukho was crying openly and sadly.
Hwang Ji-ho was still drinking with his eyes that had lost their light due to the large quantity of sheep.
“I asked Jeho to bring me some dried persimmons. Would you like some?”
The white tiger, who hated dried persimmons so much, offered dried persimmons to his friends.
The tigers were about to say they wouldn’t eat the dried persimmons because they didn’t want to see the sight of Baekho-gun, who had been drinking heavily, but since Houye had prepared them, they couldn’t say no and put the dried persimmons in their mouths.
The two then reached for the affogato that Eunho made with the vanilla ice cream I bought.
Cheongho, who still hadn’t recovered from the shock of the elixir, was quickly finishing off the wafers he had prepared as a side dish and pouring more caramel sauce than coffee into his bowl.
“are you okay?”
“I can endure it thanks to the snacks that Eui-shin brings. Thank you.”
Cheongho said with a weak smile.
But compared to Heukho, who couldn’t speak because he was crying while eating, it seemed really okay.
Then, Hwang Ji-ho also safely consumed the elixir under the watchful eye of the white tiger.
As Hwang Ji-ho frowned slightly and took a deep breath, the white tiger scratched its insides.
“Hwangho, what do you think?”
“This body is the most tasteless thing I’ve tasted in thousands of years. Should I tell you that?”
“Of course you can only know if you tell me. I have not given you protection.”
It’s a bit refreshing that Hwang Ji-ho got to know the taste of the elixir, but I don’t understand why the white tiger insists on saying something like that here.
The white tiger kept asking for my opinion as if it was protesting about having fed me dried persimmons all this time and held out a bowl of dried persimmons.
The light in Hwang Ji-ho’s eyes, which had been fading away due to the taste of the elixir, was seen to be filled with flames of anger.
Still, instead of pouring it out on the white tiger, he lifted the dessert bowl containing the affogato in an elegant manner, wondering if it was a waste of time.
“Joe Shin, I’ll eat well. Did you stop by MITRON and buy some when you went out last time? You seem well-prepared.”
As Hwang Ji-ho said, before the elixir arrived, I stopped by MITRON and picked out some snacks that would tickle my tongue as someone who had taken the elixir.
Pastry chef Ryu Jang posted a notice announcing that he was reopening, and he even sent me a special device message to let me know.
It seemed like he sent the message because he wanted to talk to me directly.
I read Ryu Jang’s intentions and visited a little early, and also met with Cederlentium.
– You weren’t seriously hurt. I wanted to see your face in person since you’re good at hiding your injuries.
Cedrentium asked about their well-being without making a sound, only moving her lips.
Although it was the number I suggested, I was worried that Cederlentium would lose its modifier, but fortunately, the modifier that still describes the Crow Demon King included ‘bystander’.
Cedrentium continued,
―Since my subordinates who had been watching from afar were massacred, I have become a party to the palace incident. Even if I intervene a little, the adjective “bystander” will not disappear.
It is said that after Ciderlentium discovered Jinwoong Palseon’s hideout, he placed additional followers around it to observe it, but lost them all.
If they had chased them away to prevent them from being witnessed, then it wouldn’t be strange to call them the parties involved if they had killed them all.
Although Sidelentium intervened in this incident first by using a pure silver coin, since this was a matter between Jinwoong Palseon and Ungnyeo, Gunggi had no justification for killing the Crow Clan.
That is, since the palace attacked Cedrentium first, there was a reason to counterattack.
―So I can reveal some information that is somewhat unfavorable to Gung-gi. Gung-gi and the other evil spirits came to the Demon World without any guides. I will tell you what I observed at that time.
I got unexpected income.
The palace was targeting the nightmare inside me, but all I knew was anecdotes left behind in myths and legends.
It would be beneficial if one could know even a little bit about the power that the archer uses.
After a fruitful conversation, I finished my shopping as a customer.
Ryu Jang asked how many boxes of wafers he had in tin cases, saying it was for service.
– Are these gifts for your dorm friends and juniors? Oh, I don’t think so, seeing as there’s a limousine of a powerful family waiting in front of the store.
As Ryu Jang had predicted, almost everything he bought today was going to end up in the tigers’ stomachs.
Of course, there were tigers that drank the elixir, but there were also descendants of Eunho and Andain’s family.
I also bought a red velvet cake for Jeokho and Ungnyeo, but even if I delivered it by leaving it in front of the mansion, I didn’t know if I would be able to see their faces as they were busy trying to relieve their stress.
―The noble family is about to hold a big feast. I should send them some party refreshments as a gift.
When you say a big feast, are you talking about Kim Shin-rok’s 100th day celebration?
Even though they were busy, the tigers did not forget to spread the rumor about the descendants’ 100th day celebration.
I was having a hard time deciding what to bring as a gift for the next class’s homeroom teacher’s 100th day celebration.
“Eunho, what was posted on the bulletin board? Are you fighting again?”
“People who use the community fight every day. But today, I don’t think there’s anyone who fights in real life.”
Meanwhile, Eunho took advantage of the lull in conversation to check the community.
Not long ago, something big almost happened while the nobles and I were out of our minds.
That big deal had something to do with me, too!
Players fought among themselves over differences of opinion over a ridiculous and baseless coupling controversy that I got involved in.
They initially fought fiercely over notes, but then posted on the bulletin board that they were verifying it right before the incident.
‘Everyone thought it was just a lie to get attention.’
It was a post that was not given much attention and was buried, but they actually met in Gwanghwamun where a storm was raging and tried to fight.
There were not many pedestrians in the windy Gwanghwamun Square, so there was no one to stop the players from fighting.
In the midst of the tense situation, a strange fog suddenly rose from the storm and stopped them, and in the meantime, a fight broke out between players. The association received a report and mediated, and the matter was resolved.
This was reported as a minor incident, and was later revealed on a community bulletin board with the title, “Is the post about the Gwanghwamun statue floating real?”
‘Could it be that the fog was spread by a mentally ill malicious commenter?’
Anyway, as the controversy over coupling spread and the person appearing in the article appeared, the community bulletin boards began to feel the need for self-restraint.
Thanks to that, the atmosphere calmed down, but this time people started fighting over a different issue.
Unfortunately, this case also had to do with the powerful clans.
It was something to do with the Black Tiger, but rather than the Black Tiger itself being a hot topic, they were fighting for some really incomprehensible reason.
“But the premise of this fight is that ‘Black Tiger exists.’ It wouldn’t be bad to let the fight continue.”
It was just as Eunho said.
The fight was now divided into two factions.
One group was those who sneered, saying, “I don’t understand why there’s such a fuss in academia.”
The other group was those who wanted to punish those who had no historical awareness, saying, “It’s a matter of pride to not be interested in history.”
The two were not so much interested in the Black Tiger itself as they were simply fighting over how much they should know about the Jin tribe and its history.
Because of the huge fight, the existence of Heukho was definitely known and the controversy over their coupling was buried, but I still had complicated feelings.
‘Isn’t it fortunate that Black Tiger’s reputation is rising?’
Suddenly, the image of Black Tiger, the boss enemy fighting the Korean national team in the other world simulator came to mind.
Even with his fame, it was questionable whether Black Tiger would be able to fight to that extent, but if he became a little stronger than he is now, Black Tiger would be safer.
As the tigers drank all the elixir and were drinking more tea, Kim Shin-rok appeared.
“Hello, sorry I’m late.”
“I know you’re busy torturing Ungjok further. Did you chase Yongjegeon away successfully?”
“The dragon went back on his own as the rain subsided. He said that he was going to prepare to welcome his benefactor to the Dragon Palace when the sun rose.”
At the words left by Yongjegeon, a harsh atmosphere poured out from here and there.
Yongjegeon endured a long time in the tiger mansion and finally returned, but it seems like I will have to see his face again.
In addition, Kim Shin-rok, who was reporting to the tigers, suddenly looked at me and said.
“… … I have something I want to talk to Mr. Jo Ui-shin.”
It was surprising that Kim Shin-rok had pointed out me, but the tigers nodded as if they had already guessed.
