A Stuffed Cheonma in my Head - Chapter 183



Only Noblemtl

Episode 183. Moonlight Punch!

Boris blinked and said with a smirk.

“How can the weakest one be the leader?”

In the past, I would have been furious, but now I was able to take it easy.

Is this the leisure of the strong?

“That was a long time ago. I’m not the same as I used to be.”

“Anyway, you’re still a silver rank, right? Did you get promoted in the meantime?”

“No. I was busy.”

“Then that won’t work.”

“what?”

“I can’t register as a mercenary group.”

As I stared blankly at him, Boris sighed and explained.

“Mercenary group registration is possible from the lowest level.”

“What? Where is that?”

“It’s the most basic of basics, but the guy who created the mercenary group doesn’t even know that.”

Boris clicked his tongue and took out some papers from a drawer as he spoke.

“Well, anyway, did you kill all those fake guys?”

“uh.”

“Then let’s consider it as naturally disbanded… The mercenary group called Sherwood that they registered before… … .”

The guy waved his quill around dazzlingly and then stamped his seal as he spoke.

“Unregister with this.”

Boris laughed heartily.

“I feel so relieved. Getting rid of the fake Sherwood right after coming back alive. That was a good thing, wasn’t it?”

He nodded and admitted it.

“It happened unintentionally.”

“Hehe. You bastards. Well done. Go to hell! Phew.”

This guy seems to have been scammed a few times while wandering around.

The watching Cheonma gave his opinion on Boris.

[The more I look at it, the more I think I understand why we became close.]

“… … .”

I thought for a moment and then asked.

“Have you heard anything about the other guys?”

“What. Those Sherwood guys? Oh, don’t be ridiculous. Guston grabbed me by the collar and dragged me all the way to some mountain village. Just thinking about them makes me shudder, shudder.”

The guy shivered as if he didn’t even want to think about it.

“But you’re a member of the mercenary guild, so you must have heard something.”

“Hmm. Let’s see… … .”

Boris muttered, tapping the reception desk with his fingertips.

“I heard that… two-faced swordsman is said to be killing demons in the North.”

“North?”

“I heard that crazy guy came cutting off the demon beast’s head before the request even came in. From what I’ve heard, it seems like they’re just killing demon beasts as soon as they see them. They’ll be going beyond the barrier soon.”

“… … You have a bad temper.”

This crazy guy is causing trouble in the North.

Did something bad happen?

But where do people not kill?

Long, long-term.

That multiple personality guy has moments where his head suddenly goes blank, and I think right now is one of those times.

I guess I’ll have to pick him up later when he calms down.

‘First of all, the north.’

I put that information in my head.

“and?”

“Let’s just wait and see… … Oh, there’s that little brat with the blackened armor? The golden eyes.”

“Schmidt?”

“Yeah, that’s right, Schmidt. They said they saw him coming down from the south, but I’m not sure.”

“You’re not sure? I thought it would be easy to find since it has such a striking appearance.”

“I don’t know. Maybe he’s covering himself up and walking around. I can’t hear anything.”

“hmm.”

It’s the south.

If I was lucky, I might have run into you.

“But why do you call Schmidt a brat? He’s not that tall.”

Boris was furious.

“Shut up. I’m bigger.”

The golden fighter, Schmidt.

He is a strange guy who doesn’t use a stick.

The sight of blood spurting is scary, and the feeling of being cut is creepy.

So, he is a kind-hearted guy who only fights with kicks and fists.

Of course, very occasionally there are those who can’t be dealt with with that alone, so they carry around a spear blade like a set of keys.

If anything, he would make a golden spear and throw it.

‘Schmidt. South.’

I also put that information in my head.

“What about the others? Have you heard anything else?”

“None. I’ll tell you when I hear it.”

“Okay.”

Then, should I focus on finding Schmidt first… … .

“ah.”

Exactly-

I snapped my fingers.

“What’s the news about Siri?”

“… … Siri?”

“I mean Cyril.”

“Oh, the distrustful saint? I’ve never heard of that guy.”

“… … Is that so?”

Actually, the only thing I’m worried about is the cold.

He’s a guy with a fierce side like Shushuruta, so if a stranger offered him something, he’d probably follow them around.

I don’t think the other guys would have taken care of Siri separately because of their personalities.

Where are you going and what are you doing?

“hmm.”

Well, that’s that.

Let’s start with what needs to be done right away.

“So you’re saying that you have to be gold rank to create a mercenary group?”

“Right. Are you going to take the promotion test right away?”

He nodded.

“Oh, good. Let’s see how strong you are. Follow me.”

Boris grabbed his folders, left the reception desk, and strode off somewhere.

He said as he walked ahead.

“Hey. If you’re going to make something new, why don’t you give it a completely new name?”

“why?”

“Because of them, Sherwood’s reputation has completely fallen. They spread rumors in the neighborhood that the Sherwood Mercenary Group has been revived? There were clients who came to us because they were curious, but since every single one of them failed, how could they possibly have gotten a good reputation? Even if we re-established the mercenary group, the clients wouldn’t come right away. Fool me once. Fool me twice.”

“… … These damn guys.”

I feel like I’ve become a shepherd boy.

The difference is that I, being upright and innocent, did not joke that a wolf was coming.

The boy who cried out was a shepherd boy who was bad at eating.

Even if you kill the shepherd boy from Jeondae, it will be difficult to restore people’s trust with that alone.

Especially since I’m not famous.

A sigh escaped me.

This is tough.

As I was walking, I arrived in front of a door.

As Boris suddenly opened the door, the dust that had been waiting in ambush launched a surprise attack.

I waved my hands and frowned.

“Hey, sir. If you have time, go ahead and clean up.”

“Why are we cleaning when no one is coming?”

Boris turned on the installed magic light and entered the room.

The unexpected visit of guests sent dust flying everywhere.

“How much did you spend on this?”

Boris strode into the room calmly and asked.

“What do you want to do first?”

It was a strangely excited voice, and it seemed to imply, ‘I was bored, so this is great!’

“Let’s measure mana first.”

“Chochi!”

Boris walked over to the dusty desk and pulled back the cloth.

The dust began to swirl again, revealing a round crystal sphere.

Boris manipulated the device connected to the crystal ball and spoke.

“Alright. Fortunately, the magic stone is still working. Let’s touch it. Let’s see if it’s the right Aura user.”

Without delay, I immediately put my hand on the crystal ball.

This is called a mana meter, and it literally analyzes the amount of mana in your body.

It tells you in color, but of course when I measured it before there was no reaction.

0. In other words, zero.

But now it will be different.

As the level of martial arts has increased and the internal energy has become more profound, it is clear that there are record-breaking numbers…

“There’s no response?”

“Huh?”

Boris looked at me.

“Ashvan. Are you fooling me?”

“Isn’t it broken?”

“no way.”

When Boris put his hand on mine, the crystal orb turned a light brown, the same color as his hair.

“See? It works.”

“Again, again.”

This time, I raised my internal energy to the max.

Wheezing!

The wind rose up all over my body.

Thanks to this, the dust attack became more fierce.

I put my hand on the crystal ball in that state.

“Ow, shit.”

Boris spit out the dust in his mouth and checked his mana meter.

“No response. If you convert it to a score, it’s zero.”

“… … This can’t be happening.”

I felt the strength leave my legs.

As the wind died down, the gray snowflakes that had been floating around the room slowly began to fall.

Even if the mana and internal energy are different, there is no reaction?

Aren’t we all from the same natural environment? Are you saying that it’s okay to discriminate like this?

“Mana measurement results. No response. Completely zero. Breadcrumb. No movement of mana at all. Not even a single thread. It’s doubtful if it’s a person. Honestly, I think it would have responded better if I had placed an ant on it.”

Regardless, Boris wrote down the results of his grade test in the folder he had brought.

Cheonma offered comfort that was not comforting.

[Isn’t it good to be good? That means other guys can’t gauge your skills.]

“… … That’s true, but it doesn’t help me at all with the promotion exam.”

“Uh, what did you say?”

“I didn’t tell you.”

“… … He talks to himself sometimes. His mental state seems very unstable.”

Boris looked at me after finishing writing.

“It looks like something has changed since the wind just blew… but why is my mana still at zero?”

“How would I know?”

“No, why are you mad at me? You crazy bastard. I’m going to disqualify you.”

“Turn on the shock meter. We’ll make up for it here.”

Boris clicked his tongue.

“What the hell are you trying to recover from? There’s a cutoff line for everything.”

“What is the cutoff line?”

“The total must be over 600 points. Since the mana meter showed 0, the shock meter must have at least 600 points. Is that possible?”

I replied, relaxing.

“Stop talking and get ready. My challenge isn’t over yet.”

“Oh my. You’ve got a master. How did you get over 600 points?”

Boris grumbled and pulled aside another piece of cloth that was beside him.

Then, a magical device as tall as a person appeared there.

Impact gauge. Also known as a punch machine.

It is a device that literally tests pure brute force. When you hit a round target that sticks out in front, it calculates the impact and reports it as a number.

As Boris turned around and manipulated the target, a clear, ringing sound was heard and the target jumped forward.

I looked at the target and asked Boris.

“What is the maximum?”

“It’s 2,000 points, you idiot. No matter what you do, it won’t break, so feel free to hit it. Last time Guston hit it and it broke, the Red Witch specially fixed it instead of paying for the device. Do you know how many magic circles are in here?”

“Oh. Sister? Then I can play with peace of mind.”

The guy snorted.

“If you get over 600 points, I’ll carry you around all day.”

“Keep your word.”

“Ignorance is bliss, they say. Usually, you pass the first promotion test by getting 300 on the mana meter and 300 on the shock meter. Do you know what the cutoff line is for the platinum rank?”

“How much is it?”

“1,200 points, you ignorant fool. So you need to get 600 on the mana meter and 600 on the shock meter to pass the first promotion test for Platinum rank. 600 points is a score that you can only get if you’re Platinum rank. You’re a Platinum rank mercenary? What do you mean 600 points? You’re talking nonsense.”

“hmm.”

Indeed, platinum grade.

It is difficult to even get to the gold level, but even though it is the first test to check the minimum qualifications, the platinum level requires twice that number.

This means that to achieve platinum grade, the seed must be completely different.

A realm that only the geniuses among geniuses can reach.

But… I overcame that difference through martial arts.

Stepped into their territory.

What’s the difference between this kind of magic device and another?

“How many points did the captain have?”

“Guston? Guston broke down when he hit a maximum of 1,000 points, so that means he must be at least over 1,000 points.”

“Really? Then it goes beyond that.”

Boris laughed bitterly.

“Good luck.”

I took a deep breath and assumed my posture.

“Master. I will go with all my might.”

[Okay. Let’s see your friend’s surprised expression.]

Wildfire rose from his fist like smoke.

At first, I just tried to do it moderately.

Because it’s only the first test.

A bright starlight twinkled on his fist.

But I changed my mind.

The captain has over 1,000 points?

The quiet full moonlight seeped into my fist.

‘I can’t lose.’

Let’s go!

“Moonlight Punch!”

Kwaaaaaaaaaaah!!
