The legendary match
‘Did you recognize me?’
I squinted my eyes and looked at the woman.
The woman was still smiling and making vulgar gestures. Every time their hands touched, a sweet, magical scent wafted out.
Judging by the degree of sweetness, the woman seemed weaker than a raccoon, but she had another strange power.
‘You must have figured it out.’
It was a sweet scent that had a strong feeling, even if it was not of the level of a general. There was no way that such a person would have come to the remote Cassidyk without a reason.
He said, ‘I found it,’ so it was clear he came looking for me.
Since a person I didn’t know recognized me right away, my brother was the likely candidate.
The woman’s gaze was similar to the way my brothers looked at me. It was like looking at a well-raised Jindo dog, but with a strong heat.
‘If it’s the brothers’ side, it needs to be confirmed.’
My fourth eldest son, Raccoon, who was a close friend of mine, was unfortunately captured and killed by the Knights of the Temple in Cassadic.
There was a possibility that my brothers might misunderstand, since they had visited Cassidy to see me and something had happened.
I thought I would contact him through the ring, but it hasn’t rung since. It was clear that the death of the raccoon had something to do with it.
‘Well, since the guy who was promoted to cardinal was caught right away, he’ll probably take care of himself.’
Judging by the way they treated me, I don’t think they would suspect me, but I couldn’t be sure since I didn’t have any information about my brother.
The eldest son was definitely a threat. The fourth son was caught with such a fuss, so I had no idea what the others above him would do.
The brothers had to be especially careful.
“Huh-? Why are you like that-?”
The woman stopped gesturing and tilted her head. It was quite bizarre how her head tilted back, but it was flexible enough to be considered flexible.
I glanced to the side.
Call!
‘How can you be so confident even when the Inquisitor is glaring at you? There must be something going on.’
At first glance, it seemed like he was drunk and out of his mind, but it wasn’t a simple matter.
If it was a guy sent by my brother, I had to take him in separately. I had to get information about my brother and find out what was going on.
First of all, I had to show him the third attitude.
“I said let’s do it-? I’m just drunk right now-.”
When there was no answer, the woman continued speaking.
The woman stuck out her tongue, which was extremely long. It moved around in an impure manner, like a snake.
‘If it’s the third one here…’
I glanced around. The woman’s attire had drawn everyone’s attention.
‘This is going to be annoying.’
I clicked my tongue, hardened my expression, and nodded my head willingly, like a third person.
“Okay, do it right now!”
“also-!”
Looking at the woman’s brightened face, it seemed like the answer was right. The woman jumped down lightly from the cart and approached, staggering, her strides uneven.
At that time, Kel blocked the woman’s path. Kel cared for Rosa, but he was smitten with any beauty.
I felt unnecessarily anxious because I thought that Kel had noticed that the woman was blocking her path.
Assuming the worst case scenario-.
Knock knock. I stroked the handle of the knife and examined the woman.
The option of being caught by a glaring inquisitor at the gates wasn’t a bad one either.
“Chief! Let’s send her back! Rosa is more beautiful, but if we bring in such an aggressive whore, Rosa’s place will be lost later on…”
‘This kid···.’
I waved my hand at Kel’s answer. Kel, who had been chewing his lips for a moment, stepped aside. Even so, Kel continued to stare at the woman.
“Ugh-.”
A woman with a long beard blew her breath at Kel. Kel’s eyes widened, his nose flared, then he slapped himself on the cheek and glared again.
‘This is fucking crazy.’
The weasel next to Kel was nowhere to be seen.
When he looked around, the weasel was next to Hannah. The weasel was shaking its butt desperately trying to get Hannah’s attention.
At that moment, a woman came right up to me. I swallowed my saliva that had been collecting in my mouth because of the sweet smell that filled the air.
I looked at the red eyes looking up at me and gauged the next situation.
Call!
The lungs showed off their presence.
There is still a level 3 inspection remaining.
I hesitated for a moment and then nodded to Lung-gyeop. Lung-gyeop nodded along with me, his eyes wide, and he yawned deeply.
“Shall we do it here-?”
The woman wiggled her long tongue noisily. I briefly wondered if attaching a bell to it would make it into a rattlesnake.
First, I had to move. To a place where there were no eyes to see and no ears to hear.
I reached out and grabbed the woman’s waist. She hugged me as if it were natural.
I suppressed the urge to rush towards the castle as the smell of smoke grew thicker.
Since I felt a bit awkward going back to my accommodations, I thought for a moment about where to go.
‘That would be nice.’
I thought of a suitable place and quickened my pace.
***
“Come in.”
I went in and looked inside.
‘It’s clean.’
The house of the governor was neat and tidy. The fact that no livestock were kept inside the house was a rare neatness in the Middle Ages.
The governor seemed to be at work, so there was no one at home.
“Umm-, no alcohol-?”
The woman who came in next to me immediately looked for alcohol. So I searched the cupboard.
There was a bottle of liquor hidden inside the cupboard. It was a fairly large bottle, and when I opened it, the smell was quite pleasant.
When I handed it to the woman, she quickly put it in her mouth. A refreshing gurgling sound was heard over and over again.
A reddish liquid flowed from the corner of the woman’s mouth. I looked at her for a moment and then swallowed.
I shook my head vigorously to shake off the desire. He was sent by my brother, and if I handled it wrong, I could end up with the raccoon incident.
“Ugh-. Steering!”
The woman who had finally finished the bottle hummed and threw it. The bottle fell to the floor and broke, spraying the remaining wine in a long stream.
It didn’t matter because it wasn’t my house.
“Again- no-?”
The woman’s voice became louder. I held out my water bottle to her. The woman who had come right in front of me opened her mouth.
I handed him the water bottle, and the woman swallowed it while staggering.
Alcohol was poison, so the more drunk the woman was, the better it was for me.
The woman who had finally emptied her water bottle shook her shoulders and waved her palms from side to side. It seemed like she was expressing her good mood, but it was a poor dance move.
“Let’s do it now-.”
The woman’s muttering made me anticipate what would happen next. It was obvious what she wanted to do.
However, the woman was a demon candy. There was no way she would do something crazy like bonding with a demon whose abilities she did not know.
“Whew- Ready to go-!”
However, when the woman who had torn off her clothes clung to me, I became dizzy from the sweet smell she gave off.
A moment of desire surged in the woman’s red eyes. It wasn’t simply an impulse caused by the devil’s candy. It was clear that there was some other magic.
[Don’t forget me.]
– You’re showing off your skills.
The tenant’s muttering brought me back to my senses. I was struck down by the desire that had filled my mind with such clarity that I could enter the temple right away.
With his sexual desire gone, he was able to look at women coolly.
‘Is this exciting?’
The magic felt a little different from magic. However, once my mind cleared, I was no longer affected.
The woman was rubbing herself hard against me. Her face was filled with a smile like that of a prey that has caught its prey. After erasing my sexual desire, that confident smile seemed funny.
Even the body movements that seemed to be flirtatious were somewhat awkward. It seemed that there was no way around it since there were no clubs in the Middle Ages.
As the magic power was removed, the woman who had been so attractive until just now appeared as a drunk woman with no screws left.
In addition, the sweet smell had diminished, and a characteristic medieval stench began to rise.
Even if she was beautiful, she would still look like shit if she was trimmed. The smell was also really bad.
My hands were shaking as I tried to hold back the urge to hit that redhead.
At that moment, the woman lifted up the few remaining clothes on my body. My hand went away for a moment at the strange stench.
Exactly!
The woman’s eyes widened as the drum made a cheerful sound. However, she smiled again. The woman pressed her body closer to her-.
‘···This really sucks.’
Even though I was breathing through my mouth, I couldn’t help but frown at the stench.
– Hehe.
The tenant’s mischievous laughter filled my head. It seemed like he knew this would happen. The thought that he was watching made me feel even more uncomfortable.
“······Brothers?”
When the woman tried to look at me, I quickly grabbed her hair and turned her around, asking, “Your breath smelled really bad.”
“Ah-, because of the fourth eldest son- it’s chaos-. Seriously- chaos-.”
The woman spoke coquettishly, raising the end of her voice.
‘Yeah, the guy who was a cardinal and a wealthy man died. There’s going to be chaos.’
It was as expected. The woman’s answer was simple, perhaps because she was drunk or because it was never a secret to begin with.
The woman kept twitching her body. Every time she did, my hands started shaking.
“Terrible?”
“The fourth eldest son who had been putting off the great undertaking died – isn’t that too heartbreaking?”
When the woman tried to turn her head, I hurriedly shaved her head.
‘Postponed the great undertaking? Were you moderate? Well, the way you weighed this and that gave off a moderate vibe.’
I nodded, thinking of the raccoon.
‘It’s a great undertaking···.’
If the Devil Candies were doing something, it would definitely be something very impure. I had to get more information about them. This drunken woman seemed a little looser than the other Devil Candies, so it was a good opportunity.
“···Then what will happen to the great undertaking?”
“The first one is quiet – the rest are insisting hard – so I guess – they’ll convene soon -. Since there’s no fourth one -.”
Suddenly, I became curious about Zhang Zi. Asking about Zhang Zi was a bit risky, but it seemed okay now.
“Then what about the fourth eldest son?”
“The third one talks a lot.”
The woman twisted her neck strangely. I tried to turn her by grabbing her hair, but she had already turned her head.
“You still haven’t done it? Is that the third one?”
The woman suddenly extended her hand. I looked at the pure white hand without a single callus as it approached me and thought about it.
‘Should I kill him?’
It was a person sent by the brother. It was very dangerous to use his hands.
I quickly looked at the woman. There was no sense of threat. For a split second, I held back my hand from reaching for the hilt of the knife.
“Shall we take a look-?”
The woman came forward, speaking at length.
As our lips get closer-.
The stench got so bad that I had to fight to keep from blowing my nose.
“Stupid third-.”
The woman who had grabbed my head started laughing and giggling.
‘It’s like that bone back then.’
When I raised the corners of my lips in response, the woman frowned and pressed her forehead against mine.
The scalp massage was quite refreshing.
***
‘Oh, it was too deep.’
Odelia realized too late that she had used her powers too deeply because she was drunk.
If you intrude too deeply, you have to be careful because it can be dangerous for you as well, but it was difficult to control yourself because you had too much to drink.
This had happened a few times before, but Odelia had never been in danger.
There was a time when I was embarrassed because the other person didn’t wake up.
‘Huh- well, it doesn’t matter.’
It was none of Odelia’s business. Besides, it would be good luck if she never woke up from her happy dream.
If it had been another third child, I would have gotten straight to the point without even talking, but this third child was very talkative.
‘Well, I’ve been through that, so-.’
Even the third one was likely to have a change in personality.
‘The third one is, it’s been a while.’
Odelia had lived for quite some time. She had neither aged nor been sick. Even though the little girl she had brought in had become an old man, Odelia was still young.
It was clearly transcendent, but the ignorant called it a devil. They themselves ate animals and only drank a little blood.
‘But why is there nothing?’
Odelia remembered the last time she had entered the third family.
Third, he was considered a vessel because of his outstanding strength, but his mind was weak, separate from his body. He was crude, as if he were in a child’s dream, but now…
‘It’s empty.’
Odelia pouted. This was going to be a hassle. The size of consciousness was not limited. There was no way to know how long it would take.
At times like this, it would have been better to go out and come back in, but because I was drunk, I was too deep in there and couldn’t go out as I pleased.
‘Things are messed up. I should have drank moderately…’
Odelia walked around diligently, feeling belated regret. She had no choice. She had no choice but to find it.
At that moment, I felt a strange gaze from somewhere.
When I raised my head to him-.
There were countless suns rising in the sky. No, when I looked closely, they were pupils. They were like snakes, but even deeper, and they were clearly not human.
It was something that had happened several times to Odelia, who often interfered with her brothers.
However, the presence of that being weighed down on Odelia. The pressure that made her lose her form was not that of a god.
‘······The beginning?’
Odelia could tell from the faint presence that the other person was not a simple god, but a primordial god.
‘···How is the beginning under consciousness?’
The god could do that. He didn’t feel swayed by receiving the god.
However, the primordial level god’s tokens were strictly controlled by the empire, so their number was small, and even those who received them soon lost their reason and became ghosts.
But the third one was clearly maintaining his sanity.
Odelia didn’t understand the situation at the moment.
Of course, the elder brother also holds the mark of the primordial god, but…
‘How can the beginning not be under consciousness?’
The opponent’s presence was clearly of the primal level. He was something Odelia could be sure of.
If God manifests his presence under consciousness, it means he is the main body, but how can a primordial level main body exist? Furthermore, how can one receive him and still maintain one’s spirit?
I couldn’t understand it. I couldn’t be sure because I’ve never had an encounter with the eldest son, but there’s no way a human could receive such a being and be okay.
‘···Because I’m the third?’
The third one was famous for being strong without any marks. If such a third one had received the marks of a primordial god-.
‘But this is the first time I’ve seen something like that? Is it the first? No, if it’s the first, then there’s no reason to send me here…’
Odelia’s dazed mind suddenly came to her senses in an unexpected situation.
– Oh my… I’m a newbie! I’m a newbie!
At that moment, the being that had not noticed the presence of the yellow eyes shouted.
Black eyes were visible between the black hair that covered her face from head to toe.
Although it was overshadowed by the overwhelming presence of his yellow eyes, he also exuded a formidable presence.
– That’s good. I was just starting to get tired of it.
As the yellow eyes blinked simultaneously, the world seemed to darken and then light up again.
Odelia just trembled and did her best to keep her form intact.
– Try to show some tricks to that cheeky guy.
Yellow eyes were gathered to one side. I turned my head to follow him, and saw a man standing expressionless on top of a mountain of corpses.
The face was similar to the one I had seen from outside, yet different. It wasn’t just the scars that were different, the lines were subtly different.
– If you want to live.
Odelia nodded at the muttering of the yellow eyes.
Soon the man turned his head as if he noticed her presence.
I don’t know about anything else, but Odelia was confident when dealing with men.
Whether they were nobles or royalty, when they stood before Odelia, they all turned into beasts.
“Are you new? I’ve never seen your face before, but I guess it doesn’t matter.”
However, Odelia’s expectations were instantly crushed by the punches that poured out without any room for error.
***
‘I dozed off for a bit.’
When she opened her eyes again, the woman was lying on her back. Her eyes were rolled back as if she had fainted, and drool was flowing from her mouth. It was not a pretty sight.
I held my nose, frowning at the stench that stung my nostrils. The woman’s demonic handprint was clearly visible.
‘The shape is different.’
I crouched down in front of him and examined the devil’s handprint.
It was very small. My devil’s handprint covered from my left chest to my stomach, while the woman’s only covered the upper part of her chest.
However, unlike mine which had yellow eyes, the woman’s handprint was quite nice to look at.
I grabbed it and pulled to see if I could tear it off, but it only stretched and didn’t tear. At that, I clicked my tongue and shook the woman.
When I shook it quite roughly and it didn’t get up, I looked for water to pour out.
Thump, thump, thump.
Someone knocked on the door.
Then I roughly dressed the woman in the clothes lying next to me, folded the woman up, put her aside, and headed for the door.
When I opened the door, I saw a familiar face.
“Are you done…?”
It was Jisa Square. Jisa Square looked at me with a disgusted face and asked.
“what.”
I answered, stretching, as if I had had a good night’s sleep for the first time in a long time.
“Why are you doing that in someone else’s house….”
“Ahem.”
As Jisa Square complained, the old man next to him coughed loudly and stepped forward. It was the old man who had been leading the woman’s horse earlier.
“Are you okay, Lady Odelia?”
The old man, whose eyebrows were white, asked with a worried voice. His gaze was fixed on my pants.
“Lotteria?”
“The person who went with you earlier is Odelia.”
He nodded to the old man’s question. Although the child was unconscious, he appeared to be fine.
‘It was difficult to clean up, but this turned out well.’
“Would you like to come in and get it?”
I said, pointing inside. The expressions of the governor and the old man changed abruptly.
“This is my house, why don’t you come in….”
“No matter what, how could you do that to a woman you slept with···.”
The two of them were chattering about something, but I, feeling refreshed for once, ignored them and opened the door.
“Where does this sweet smell come from···.”
While the governor’s nose was flaring, the old man hurried into the house.
“Come in.”
“This is my home, commoner!”
As I stepped aside and spoke, the governor shouted and went inside.
“···where?”
In response to the old man’s question, I pointed to the place where I had put the woman. Then the old man glared at me as if he was looking at the trash of the world, and then carefully took the woman out.
“Lady Odelia! Lady Odelia!! Come to your senses…!”
The old man held the unconscious woman and cried out in sorrow as if he were facing his dead lover.
‘There’s something between the two of you.’
I scratched my cheek in exaggerated behavior. It wasn’t a very nice sight.
“This is Odelia, who has received many blessings up until now! She has never lost consciousness even once, so what on earth did she do to lose consciousness?”
The old man pointed at me and shouted. I squinted my eyes at the sudden shift in blame.
It was a bit creepy to hit an old man, but I couldn’t live doing only what I liked.
Before the old man could attack, the woman opened her eyes. She blinked her bleary eyes for a moment.
“Lady Odelia! Lady Odelia! Are you awake?!”
The old man looked at the woman and asked in a sorrowful voice. He seemed to be trying to suppress his rising voice for fear of startling the woman.
The woman, who had been impressed for a moment, pushed the old man away and stood up.
The woman, who had caught her breath, looked at me and slowly knelt down.
The old man looked dumbfounded at the unexpected development.
The woman carefully knelt down with a trembling body, bowed her head deeply, and spoke softly.
“Your Majesty···.”
The woman shed tears as if she had met the emperor.
Because his actions were so sincere, I straightened my posture for no reason.
The old man froze in place at the woman’s strange behavior.
“You··· You··· You···.”
The governor pointed at me with an indescribable expression on his face.
‘It’s been a while since I slept well.’
I scratched my cheek and yawned deeply.
***
“Did you hear that?”
Cobbs turned his head at the voice beside him. There was his friend Vector sitting.
Vector gestured for them to come closer, his mouth moving as if he wanted to speak at any moment.
His instincts flinched at that. It was rare for Vector to react like that. Aaron had clearly done something.
“What?”
Cobbs asked, feeling sorry for missing the spectacle because of his overtime.
“Keep this to yourself.”
Vector warned, his voice low.
It was clear that everyone in Cassadic would know by tomorrow. Cobbs nodded.
“It’s a story about Aaron.”
‘As expected of Aaron!’
Cobbs shivered slightly at the thought that his prediction was correct.
‘Who did you hit this time?’
I hadn’t been able to go to the bar recently due to overtime work, and it seemed like Aaron had started something else while I was there. Cobbs sighed softly.
“Did you know that a famous prostitute recently came to Cassidy?”
The short-spoken Vector gestured to the men at the next table. The men came over and joined him.
“Why is a famous prostitute at Cassidy?”
Cobbs tilted his head at the unexpected story.
“I heard that he came looking for Aaron after hearing rumors about him!”
Vector said with a serious face, spreading both hands left and right.
Gulp. There were many rumors about Aaron in Cassidy. Of all of them, only one was worthy of expression.
Cops looked left and right several times before speaking very cautiously. He would not have been this cautious even if he had cursed the Emperor, but he still felt uneasy.
“···That place is huge?”
It was a very famous rumor. There was also a story that the long sword he carried on his back was actually a device to hide him. And there was also the fact that he refused the advances of a prostitute······.
“Yes! The legendary courtesan heard the rumor and came to have a showdown! A showdown between the divinely appointed courtesan and the scoundrel Aaron! It was sure to be a showdown that would go down in legends!”
Since he was such a talkative guy, he quickly set the mood and waved his hand. At that, Cobbs swallowed hard.
“Did that prostitute really receive her calling?”
“I don’t know. But Kel, who was on guard, said······.”
Gulp.
“They say she’s a great prostitute, incomparable to Rosa! The moment that prostitute entered the castle, she started worrying about Rosa’s earnings! That Kel, I’m talking about.”
Kel’s pride in Rosa was famous. If she was a prostitute that Kel could acknowledge and be wary of, she might really have been blessed.
“So what happened?”
“The moment the two of them met, everyone standing next to them fell silent. They all sensed that a legendary match was about to begin! While everyone was swallowing their saliva due to the immense tension! The legendary courtesan made the first move. Let’s compete!”
Vector, who had been talking nonstop, quenched his thirst with beer. There were already a lot of people gathered around him.
“Would Aaron, the scoundrel, refuse? No! Aaron saw him and immediately hugged the woman’s waist! He disappeared somewhere! And four days later, he was found! What the heck! Aaron was in perfect health! The woman was a legendary prostitute! When he went inside, he saw that Aaron was in perfect health without any fatigue, but the woman had lost consciousness and passed out!”
Gulp.
‘···But wasn’t that what happened earlier?’
No matter how much he worked overtime, there was no way he hadn’t heard the rumor that the legendary prostitute had come to Cassidy. It must have been something that happened today, but that didn’t really matter.
Corpse focused again.
“The legendary courtesan was in critical condition. She had no scars on her body, and was just gasping for breath! That’s why the legendary courtesan’s coachman shouted at Aaron while swearing at him! ‘The legendary courtesan has never been defeated, what have you done!’”
Ah-, a small sigh came from the surroundings. Some people muttered, ‘That guy is definitely dead,’ and the rest nodded.
“But! The moment Aaron’s eyes turned to the woman! The woman who had stopped breathing began to breathe! She was resurrected! Resurrected!”
What followed was unbelievable, but everyone nodded because it was funny.
“The woman who got up like that, trembling, knelt down tenaciously-.”
Gulp. Vector coughed and held out his hand. The people watching nearby cursed as they each took out a copper and placed it there.
“With tears streaming down her face – looking up at Aaron -”
Everyone cursed again and took out a copper each. Vector, who had gathered them all, put them in his pocket and took a deep breath for a moment.
Vector, who had set the mood as if he was giving it his all, looked around and spoke in a very small voice.
“Your Majesty-.”
There was a moment of silence-.
“Aaron, who knocked out the prostitute who had been given a heavenly mandate!”
“The King of Mating! Aaron!”
Everyone burst into praise for the legend.
That legend was one that touched the hearts of men even more than the legend of the swordsman who single-handedly killed a hundred knights.
