8. Found, Emperor’s Dog (2)

After talking with Hoya in the basement of the abandoned house, at lunch the next day, Jo Jo-yeon informed the soldiers of the Black Dragon that there had been a meeting with Hoya.

“I was able to finish the conversation safely with the westerner I saw two days ago last night. He actively showed his will to help us and even exchanged vows with each other.

The soldiers who listened to Jo Jo-yeon’s story in an upright posture lit up their eyes with a strong will.

Those who are aware that the current country is wrong and want to change it have been waiting for those words to come out of Jo Yeon’s mouth.

“We will meet with him in two days to discuss the details. Until then, act as usual so that the story does not leak out.”

“Yes!”

Among the soldiers who answered in a loud voice, there was also the emperor’s dog with his head rolling inward.

* * *

“Sir, there is one thing I want to ask you.”

“Yes, Toya. What are you curious about?”

Choi Do, the youngest member of the Black Dragon, who has just turned 20, and his right arm, whom Jo has been raising since childhood, stopped Jo Yeon’s path and looked back at him.

“Why did you announce to everyone that you shared the oath with the people of the West Continent? Currently, the Emperor’s Dog is hiding in the Black Dragon Belt. It’s a fact only the two of us know, but… It’s a big deal if it goes through.”

Both the Black Dragon and the Masters were over.

“Don’t worry, Doya.”

Jo Yeon-yeon, who read Choi Do’s worries on her face, patted him on the back.

“I said it on purpose knowing that it would.”

“…I don’t know what that means.”

“You’ll find out all the time.”

Choi Do, unable to understand Jo Yeon’s meaning, furrowed his eyebrows and clenched his chin.

“I always said? Don’t put your thoughts on your face. Showing your head to the enemy is like showing your weakness.”

“I’m sorry, I’ll keep that in mind… Can I ask you one more question?”

“Yeah, ask me anything.”

“Tell me where you hid the oath. I will keep it.”

Jo Yeon laughed at Choi Do’s question.

“This is the fourth time.”

“Yes?”

“It’s nothing. Okay, I’ll tell you where I hid it. The oath is under the saddle of my horse.”

Seeing Choi Do nodded at his words, Jo Jo-yeon patted him on the shoulder.

‘I believe you are not.’

* * *

The next evening, Jo Jo-yeon summoned the soldiers who were taking a short break once more.

All of them took off their armor and rested, leaving only a few sentries, but as soon as Jo Yeon was called, they quickly put on their armor and gathered in front of him.When General Jo-yeon summons all the people, put on all the clothes and stand in front of him.



It was one of the rules of the Black Dragon.

Jo Jo-yeon looked at the soldiers of the Black Dragon corps lined up in front of her and checked their faces and number of people.

He said, ‘One, two, three ……, 30 people in total. The dog hasn’t gotten out yet. Perhaps he was planning to take advantage of the darkness of the night.’

Moving alone during the day is risky in many ways.

Jo Yeon looked at them and opened her mouth.

“Currently, the Emperor’s Dog is hiding in the Black Dragon. Even that has been around for quite some time.”

At Jo Jo-yeon’s remarks, the soldiers, except for Choi Do, murmured lowly.

Except for Choi Do and the emperor’s dog, which is still hiding, the other 28 people are the first to hear about it.

“quiet.”

But at Jo Jo-yeon’s words, all the soldiers shut their mouths.

“It’s the first time I’ve heard of this, so I understand that it’s confusing. It was meant to identify a character, so I hope you understand.”

“General, then, is it ok to say that you have identified a person by telling us this now?”

Choi Do’s question was agreed upon with Jo Yeon in advance.

In response to Choi Do’s question, Jo Yeon nodded his head and pulled something out of his arms.

“Yeah, there were five in total. The one who asked me where this object was.”

What he took out was the oath with Hoya.

A fake pledge with some writing inside, but all lies.

In the first place, there is no real oath.

“And I gave each of the people who asked where this pledge was located. For Do, under the saddle, for Min-seok, between the cloths, for Ji-hyeok, between the books, and for Man-woong, the hidden pocket at the bottom of the bag. ……”

Jo Jo-yeon’s cold gaze focused on one of the soldiers in line.

“I told you, the stone, it’s in the bucket.”

“……”

“The only thing I put in the water tank is gone.”

“……”

“I think the calculation worked out that it wasn’t just him who asked for the location of the oath. But he would not have thought of such a case. He would have thought that he had not been found out that he was on the side of the emperor. … I don’t know what the emperor lured you into. One.”

Jojo Yeon placed his hand on the handle of the sword on his horn.

“You couldn’t pass up this opportunity to command the emperor as a colonel. It was your mistake not to read the time.”

“み, damn it!”

As soon as Yoo Seok-jae recognized that he had fallen into a trap, he immediately tried to run away.

His seat was at the back of the lined up soldiers, and Jo Jo-yeon was at the forefront.

He thought that if he ran to die, he would be able to escape.

But his thoughts were completely wrong.

Whoops! Poop Phu Phu-!

The soldiers around Yoo Seok-jae stabbed him with their swords.

Jo-yeon’s order was not dropped.

However, the three years of Seodang Dog are said to bring a good harvest, and the soldiers quickly realized what Jo Yeon would command from Jo Yeon’s actions and acted immediately.

There was no hesitation, although his face was frowned upon because he had had a relationship with him until now.

“Awesome…!”

Yoo Seok-jae’s body quietly collapsed from his knees.

Jojo Yeon, who was looking at it bitterly, closed his eyes once and opened them, then straightened his eyes and said to the former soldiers of the Black Dragon.

“Yoo Seok-jae, a member of the Black Dragon, died during a battle with the Westerners, and Choi Do-do, a member of the Black Dragon, also died, and lost two talented people, but the Westerners escaped. The Black Dragons pursue the Westerners in order to get revenge and fulfill the emperor’s orders. . Do you understand?”

“Yes!”

What Jo Jo-yeon said was a false storyline of the case to be revealed.

If only Yoo Seok-jae died, the emperor could think that he had found out that he had conciliated him.

As a result, if another unit is attached to the Black Dragon, it will be difficult to move.

Therefore, he treats Choi Do, whom he cherishes as death, to avoid the emperor’s suspicion.

As a result, Choi Do-eul, who was unable to act like the Black Dragon, and Jo-yeon, planned to accompany Hoya for his contact and his protection.

* * *

Shortly before Yoo Seok-jae was stabbed with a sword and turned into a hedgehog, Hoya, who promised to meet again with Jo Jo-yeon in the morning, was catching a monster in a nearby mountain.

The mountain on the side of Nakjeong Village was only Hwagorani, but the mountain beyond Mindegi Village was full of suitable monsters for Hoya to hunt.

Shortly after hunting monsters in the mountains, a system message that Hoya had been waiting for occurred.

[You have cleared the quest ‘Big Steps to Increase Strength – The Third’.][Pet ‘Badu’ acquires skill ‘Liberation’.][Liberation]

Breaking the shackles holding down his own strength, he temporarily shows powerlessness that doubles his usual strength.

When the duration of Liberation is over, he feels very tired and his stats are reduced by 50% for 12 hours.

It means that it has been two weeks since we arrived in the eastern continent, that is, two weeks have passed since Badu’s quest occurred.

After completing the quest, Hoya smiled satisfactorily when he confirmed the new skill created by Badu.

The quest is complete and he can now reverse summon Badu, but Hoya still has Badu on his head.

If you are with them, you will receive a buff, so there was no reason to reverse summons unless it was a dangerous situation.

Not long after that, a system message was issued to Hoya again.

[You have cleared the quest ‘Find the Emperor’s Dog’.][Experience increases.][Jo-yeon’s favorability has increased.][The quest ‘Mihyun’ can be obtained through conversation with Jo Yeon.]

It was a message announcing the completion of the quest that occurred while talking to Jo Yeon before.

‘Fortunately, it seems to have worked.’

Hoya, who received the quest, had a story in mind at that time.

A Hollywood actress gave birth in the past.

The paparazzi were naturally curious about her baby face.it will be money

However, she did not reveal her baby’s face to her press and only sent pictures of her baby’s face to her own close friends.

But the pictures of her baby she sent were all different, and none of them were real.

She thought that one of her own best friends might sell her photos to her press or the paparazzi, so she did the same.

And as a result, one of the photos of her baby that she sent to her best friends was revealed to the press as her baby.

Indeed, one of her best friends had sold her baby’s photo.

Hoya got a hint from the story and suggested a way to Jo Yeon.

First, he fakes what the emperor’s dog needs, namely, the physical evidence.

And by hiding it in several places, it tells the soldiers different places.

If the fake evidence disappears, the soldier who knew the place is the emperor’s dog.

Hoya had to move his brush so that his hand was numb as he decided to make a pledge as a physical proof and prepared fake vows as many as the number of soldiers just in case.

It seems to have worked though.

The next day, Hoya, who came to the abandoned house at the appointed time, was introduced to Choi Do by Jo Yeon.

“My name is Choi Do. I am now serving Hoya-sama to the side of the master.”

“Oh, yes. Thank you.”

Hoya, who bowed at the same time as Choi Do’s deep greeting, heard from Jo Yeon the process and results of the work.

Hearing the story, Hoya could understand why Choi Do had to accompany him.

And immediately after that, the quest occurred.

[Quest ‘Mihyun’ has occurred.][Mihyun]

Follow Choi Do’s instructions to meet Jo Yeon’s master and have a conversation with him.

Your choices determine the future of the Black Dragons and their masters.

*You can check the effect of the title ‘Treasurer’ in advance.

Success Conditions: After meeting and talking with Jo Jo-yeon’s master, he chooses to help his rebellion.

Completion rewards: EXP increase, Jo Jo-yeon’s favorability increase, title ‘Treasurer’ acquired, quest ‘To change the sky 1’

Failure Penalty: Decreased favorability of Jo-yeon, quest ‘Information’

After the quest occurred, Hoya and Choi Do greeted Jo Yeon, then left the abandoned house and headed to the place where the master was.

“Mr. Choi Do.”

“It’s okay to call me Do. Do you have any questions?”

“I think we need to know where we are going now. I don’t know the geography of the eastern continent.”

“Sorry. I forgot to tell you first.”

“No, it’s okay, so you don’t have to bow down every single time!”

As Hoya straightened Choi Do’s waist, he answered Hoya’s question.

“We will go to a place called Hwahoe Village, where the master is recuperating.”

“Healing… this?”

“Yeah, apparently it’s a recuperation.”
