Chapter 56: Now I Can Go
The ink dipped on the brush had dried.
Already the umpteenth ti.
Such a troubleso report.
Murim Alliance Luoyang Branch
Title: Report on Subduing Luoyang Branch Leader Hwangbo Gak
Recipient: Murim Alliance Leader
Gong Pilsang's stomach churned—ssareureeu.
Had he ever written a report going directly to the Alliance Leader?
Moreover, to report such a matter?
He didn't write separate references.
Because too many people should be included. The two Vice Alliance Leaders handling administration and strategy, naturally the Chief Strategist too, the Enforcent Hall Leader of course, and even the Zhanglong Hall Leader to which Jin Yeomyeong belonged—
Never mind.
Not writing references was the right decision.
A report that should go straight to the Alliance Leader. Since it concerned his own blood relative, would receive it first and inform others himself.
一. For the Murim Alliance's infinite developnt.
The brush stopped here too.
Words always written without concern.
rely formality.
However, after experiencing this incident, looked different.
The Alliance had grown quantitatively.
Not only branches, but depending on need, even established sub-branches smaller than branches in so places.
Recruited that many Alliance mbers. Didn't think all selections were thorough.
With the Branch Leader colluding with Demonic Cult, would Alliance mbers be fine?
Let's move on.
Anyway, infinite developnt must happen.
二. Summary: In the Black Path subjugation process led by Ink Sword Hero Jin Yeomyeong belonging to Zhanglong Hall, the fact that Luoyang Branch Leader Hwangbo Gak colluded with Demonic Cult secretly operating as the entity called Luoyang Black Path King was discovered. Evidence was confird while nurous Luoyang martial artists witnessed, and Ink Sword Hero Jin Yeomyeong subdued Branch Leader Hwangbo Gak who attempted leaving the scene through martial duel. Branch Leader Hwangbo Gak is currently imprisoned in Thunder Prison.
The detailed process is explained as follows.
- Below -
Too much to write below.
The defeated Demonic Cult turns out to be intact.
How did we know? Ask the Ink Sword Hero.
Why didn't the branch know? So that's because of Hwangbo Gak.
I also suffered greatly. Don't you properly manage blood relatives?
Ehyu—Gong Pilsang who sighed moved his brush.
The trading company alliance that gained power under the previous magistrate's reign secretly assembled Black Path oppressing commoners. Ink Sword Hero Jin Yeomyeong, in the process of preventing Golden Cloud Trading Captain Zhu Hochong's assassination attempt, clashed with so Black Path—
Now Luoyang's comrcial world was Golden Cloud Trading's monopoly system.
Even if other trading companies existed, couldn't match Golden Cloud Trading's scale. rely divided domains Golden Cloud Trading didn't handle.
Heard Golden Cloud Trading sent trendous gifts to the new house the Ink Sword Hero moved to.
Gong Pilsang awkwardly scratched his head.
Then briefly put down the brush stroking the desk.
The newly acquired rosewood desk welcod his touch.
Truly beautiful and elegant.
Even difficult report writing gained strength because this desk existed.
However—letters carved in the upper right watched him.
[Presented by Jin Yeomyeong]
Jin Yeomyeong had sent one desk made of rosewood.
Ssareureeu—stomach ached again.
Five characters forcing him to recall who'd co if he did wrongly.
Won't do it.
Won't do wrong things.
I did it because Hwangbo Gak ordered, not by my own will.
Turning head back to the report—
Ink Sword Hero Jin Yeomyeong continuously clashed with Black Path forces in subsequent personal activities. He gauged Black Path's quantity and quality speculating backing existed, and ford Black Path Extermination Corps proceeding with Black Path subjugation.
Wrote in detail several incidents heard from Jin Yeomyeong.
Personal activities' aftermath continued even now.
Luoyang Physicians' Guild was born.
Heard the inaugural guild head was a physician called Jang Huigun.
Luoyang Black Path Extermination Corps changed its na to Luoyang Self-Defense Corps.
Affiliated groups like Tiger Alliance obtained livelihoods through Jin Yeomyeong's diation. While living like that, they stepped forward for night patrols, Black Path subjugation, etc.
The subjugation received active support from current Henan Magistrate Yang Daeryang. The magistrate is thought to have plans to expand subjugation to Henan overall going forward.
The Henan Magistrate was purging subordinates belonging to opposing political factions.
Soon Magistrate Yang Daeryang would completely dominate Henan.
Rumor had it he assigned Jin Yeomyeong as secret inspector.
Those words also ant Jin Yeomyeong gained wings for activities within Henan.
Subjugation of the Black Path base located in Banggachon, Sangyang County was carried out. In this subjugation, beheaded Blood Path Guest, Nine Black Ghost, Tangshan Twin Killers, Life-Severing Second Brother, Iron Head Fierce Tiger, etc. Also captured Guyang Je who'd trained Water Vein demonic arts.
Jin Yeomyeong said he'd deliver Blood Path Guest's head to Mount Hua Sect. Probably from Mount Hua Sect's position, extrely welco matter.
Guyang Je was surprisingly still breathing.
Probably would be escorted to the Alliance together with Hwangbo Gak receiving interrogation.
Now then, now the grand finale.
The stone wall excavated from the hideout's stone chamber had traces of Hwangbo Clan's Heavenly King Divine Fist. All martial artists who witnessed this agreed Hwangbo Gak was the collaborator. Nevertheless, Hwangbo Gak attempted leaving the scene without permission and provoked martial artists trying to stop him. The Ink Sword Hero responded to the duel. As the duel's result, Branch Leader Hwangbo Gak suffered fatal injury to his qi center.
Suffered fatal injury to qi center.
Originally content that should be in the summary, but ca this far wanting to delay.
"Haiya. How will the Alliance Leader react?"
While he himself was this frightened—
The Ink Sword Hero seed to have no worries at all.
Saying he'd go back to Banggachon's Black Path hideout.
His head shook involuntarily.
Too lacking in worry.
That fearso Alliance Leader. Yet insisting on definitely attaching 'that' to this report?
"Haah. Have to do it."
With a deep sigh, Gong Pilsang lifted his brush.
Addendum) Ink Sword Hero Jin Yeomyeong applied for leave. See Appendix Thirteen.
The leave application Hwangbo Gak had been suppressing was attached at the very end of the report.
Looking again, amazing.
Leave Reason: Childcare.
"Of all things to cause such an incident. I don't know. I don't know."
The Alliance's first childcare leave application.
The report departed.
***
"Then I'll be going."
"Have a safe trip."
I greeted my wife and left the main building.
The newly moved house had a wide courtyard. New employees greeted .
"Have a safe trip, Ink Sword Hero."
"Should we prepare dinner?"
Among them, Jeongi ca running—jjoreureu.
"Hero, where are you going? Take too!"
Gardener Jeong Nosam was horrified stopping his daughter.
The exact sa scene as when first eting at Master Dongpae's estate made laugh.
They'd been working at positions Golden Cloud Trading provided, then rushed over hearing our house was hiring.
"Child! Master Jin is now our master lord. Don't just say anything!"
Master Jin?
No, no, that's a bit—
"What master lord? That's too much. Rather call by alias."
Jeongi looked up at with sparkling eyes.
"Alias? Which one? Butcher?"
"..."
Aliases Black Path had called carelessly still remained. Would take so ti to disappear.
"Ink Sword Hero. That's enough."
"Hehe. Lately people don't just say Ink Sword Hero though."
"Then?"
"Great Hero. Ink Sword Great Hero."
The character Great got attached.
Great Hero—an alias reminiscent of Namgung Jeheon.
"At ho, just 'hero' is sufficient. That aside, shall I buy candied fruit?"
"Ah? Yes!"
I left the house taking Jeongi.
Heungeol heungeol—walking with the humming little one, soon a candied fruit stall appeared.
"Great Hero! You ca?"
He really called Great Hero.
The candied fruit vendor was that person whose stall nearly went to the trading company alliance.
"No troubles lately?"
"Troubles? There are! Since the alliance disappeared and supplies abundantly entered, fruit prices also dropped. Can keep selling at prices suitable for kids to buy. All thanks to Great Hero!"
"Fortunate. Jeongi, what candied fruit will you eat?"
"Plum candied fruit!"
"Really? Your taste is similar to our Taebok."
"Taebok? He eats candied fruit?"
"No. When he grows up. Seems like he'll like plum candied fruit."
I gave candied fruit to tilting-head Jeongi and sent her ho.
Self-Defense Corps inside and outside the alley.
And even Mister Pao in our alley—
Even Jeongi alone could return ho safely.
"Oh, it's Ink Sword Great Hero!"
"Great Hero! Great Hero! Hello!"
"Will you recognize us?"
I looked at the ones approaching noisily.
They pulled out coins clamoring at the candied fruit vendor for the candied fruit they wanted.
"Haha. Why ask if you won't even hear my answer?"
"Eh, but must buy quickly. Ti to go learn writing from Scholar Bang."
"Great Hero will recognize us. How is it? Different from beggar days, right? We're handso when we wash well and wear new clothes too!"
Jang Hyu and other young beggars had now beco young students.
Zhu Hochong, even amid busyness, arranged places for the children to stay.
I also recomnded Scholar Bang Wongeol so children could obtain basic learning.
Who knows?
Perhaps a top examination passer might erge among these kids.
"You were handso back then too. But no way I wouldn't recognize you."
Because the sparkling eyes and clear laughter were pretty no matter what clothes worn.
"Now, go quickly. Must go learn much."
"Uu, I'm already dizzy."
" too."
"What if we get caught dozing like last ti?"
Mm. Top examination passing is too much?
Parting from the kids, I walked the street again.
What if they're bad at studying?
Golden Cloud Trading has various jobs—later they can do work they can do.
For example—
"Great Hero, where are you going?"
"Captain, no, are you now Chairman again?"
"Right. Now Chairman again."
Forr-forr Tiger Alliance Chairman, forr Extermination Corps Captain, current Tiger Construction Alliance Chairman Go Dangseong appeared.
He was building a shop by the roadside.
From there, construction alliance mbers stuck out heads greeting.
"Great Hero, please say sothing to Chairman! He's too fired up."
"Just now obtained proper work, so must do well from the start. The nagging is so severe."
"We're also doing it properly!"
Chairman Go seed ticulously checking even building one shop.
"Haven't done proper work in ages! What if we miss sothing!"
"That's also the sa for Chairman. We're building while checking many tis!"
"You bastards! Would I co if I trusted you!"
Leaving Tiger Construction Alliance having a verbal fight, I walked the road again.
[Jang Physician's Office]
Arrived at destination.
The physician's office operated by Physicians' Guild Head Jang Huigun.
"Long ti no see. Great Hero!"
"Long ti no see, Physician Jang. Weren't you surprised when I suddenly sent patients?"
"Was slightly surprised but was fine. Do patients co with advance notice?"
"The number was a bit much though."
"That's also fine. Now there's Luoyang Physicians' Guild. Physicians who suffered together back then created a contact network, and before we knew it everyone participated. If one physician's office can't handle it, just request help from another physician's office."
Organization was established.
Different from past Luoyang.
"Is there an elder nad Dang Yang inside?"
"Yes, shall I bring him?"
"No, I'll go in. Please guide ."
Jang Huigun turned heading inside.
Before following him in—suddenly turned my head looking at the physician's office entrance.
Beyond that, Luoyang's streets were visible.
Safely, prosperously, healthily. If wishing one more thing, to the extent of playing with friends.
Thoughts from walking Luoyang's streets right after regression ca to mind.
Pisik—laughter erged.
"Roughly achieved?"
Self-Defense Corps, trading companies, Physicians' Guild took their places.
Children were safely going through streets. Supplies were abundant and prices dropped. If sick, could visit physicians anyti.
"Good, very good."
Now after stopping by the location on the treasure map, can depart on spiritual dicine journey.
"Oh, Ink Sword Hero! You ca! Finished all work?"
Though I tried entering, Dang Yang rushed out.
"If you an finishing, I finished. Though seems a bigger matter will arise because of that finishing."
"Is that so?"
"Yes. But that's why I ca without delaying."
If inspectors ca from the Alliance or they summoned to main headquarters, wouldn't have ti.
"Good, good. Don't delay. Even now it keeps bothering ."
So then—
"So what is it? What's inside?"
"Ah, I don't know that."
"?"
Mm, this kind of developnt?
