EP.246 Aim for the Dildo! (1) 

The carriage rattled along as I leaned back and gazed at the distant mountains. 

The true identity of Saoling’s master, as Jeong Sahwa had revealed, 

was none other than a senior executive of the Erotic Administration. 

In hindsight, maybe it was obvious. 

In a world where common sense had shifted, there weren’t many people who could be called “master.” 

Then, since she’s an executive too, maybe it’d be easy to find her. 

With that small hope, I asked Jeong Sahwa. 

“I’m sorry, but I don’t know either. She’s such a free spirit.” 

It wasn’t the answer I wanted. 

Of course, things were never going to be that easy. 

If anything, it was strange that things had gone so smoothly up until now. 

“So you don’t know any likely places she’d go?” 

“Well, she tends to go wherever something looks interesting.” 

How am I supposed to find someone with a clue like that…? 

“Isn’t there at least one place?” 

“Are you talking about the Yongbongjihoe?” 

Gayoun, who’d been quietly passing the time, suddenly spoke up, 

and Hwayeon immediately guessed what she meant. 

But what’s the Yongbongjihoe? 

“It’s a tournament for late-bloomers, basically a competition for rookies in their teens and twenties.” 

“And that executive would be interested in something like that?” 

It sounded impressive, but how was it different from any amateur tournament? 

When I asked, Hwayeon launched into an impassioned explanation. 

“Listen carefully. The Yongbongjihoe is the fluttering of young wings aiming for the future. It’s not just about strength it’s about seeing the potential for growth in these late-bloomers.” 

“Ah, I see.” 

Is it really that great? 

Honestly, I couldn’t quite understand. 

Still, if it was enough to catch someone’s interest, maybe it was worth checking out. 

“So when is this Yongbongjihoe?” 

“In a week. If we go straight, it’ll take about ten days to reach the city where it’s held.” 

“…” 

What the hell? 

It starts in a week, but it takes ten days to get there? 

Might as well forget the tournament and look for something else to pique her interest. 

But Hwayeon said it was fine and took the reins from Nami. 

“As the head of the Mount Hua Sect, nothing is impossible. Let’s go!” 

The moment Hwayeon grabbed the reins, 

a fierce wind whipped up like a storm. 

Suddenly, the horses started running at an incredible speed. 

Is this even possible? 

All she did was take the reins, and everything changed so drastically! 

Watching Hwayeon, I felt my blood run cold. 

“Yah! Get out of the way! I won’t be responsible if we crash!” 

‘Sometimes there are people like that.’ 

You know the type people whose personalities change 180 degrees when they get behind the wheel. 

Normally gentle Hwayeon looked possessed, 

grinning fiercely and whipping the reins like a rampaging bull. 

‘Let’s not let her drive again.’ 

If I let her take the reins twice, I’ll be the one to die first. 

I nearly got blown away by the wind, barely hanging on. 

Thanks to Hwayeon’s incredible skill, 

we covered a ten-day journey in just four days. 

Was this really possible? 

But the faster pace had its downsides. 

“Uwaaaagh!” 

“M-master, my stomach… ugh!” 

“P-please spare me, sir, ugh!” 

Three of us stood in a row, throwing up repeatedly. 

No matter how tough we were, this was beyond human endurance! 

Of course, it made sense that the already-dead Gayoun was fine, 

and I could accept that the driver herself was okay. 

But why… 

“Still not feeling well?” 

“Why are you fine too?!” 

Jeong Sahwa handed us towels with complete composure. 

Come to think of it, she’d been calmly milking herself even in the bouncing carriage. 

Did she learn that in some kind of special forces? 

“Well, at least we made it.” 

We suffered from motion sickness, 

but we arrived before the tournament started, so that’s good. 

Now that we’d puked everything out, it was time to find an inn. 

We could sleep in the carriage, but with inns right there, why suffer? 

We set out to find a place to stay. 

“Is that true?” 

“Yes. There are no vacancies in any inn.” 

Yongbongjihoe. 

Maybe this tournament really was a big deal. 

There were plenty of inns in this big city, 

but not a single one had a room for us. 

Were we going to have to live in the carriage after all? 

I was about to lose my temper when a trembling voice called out from behind. 

“E-excuse me, do you not have a place to stay?” 

“Hm?” 

It was a small girl, maybe middle school age. 

She nervously clasped her hands and spoke with effort. 

“If you’d like, would you stay at my house?” 

“Sorry, there are a lot of us.” 

“I-it’s fine! Our house is big…” 

She seemed pretty desperate. 

We were just looking for a place, and as long as we paid, we could make it work. 

Even if it was a bit cramped, we could manage. 

I glanced at Jeong Sahwa for her opinion, and after a moment’s thought, she nodded. 

“Alright, but I’d like to talk to an adult first. Can you show us the way?” 

“Yes! This way!” 

She led us energetically to her house. 

It was a bit shabby, but the smell of herbs made it clear. 

“This is a clinic?” 

“Yes, my father runs it!” 

But something was off. 

A clinic this quiet, even when all the inns were full? 

Something didn’t add up. Maybe the girl didn’t invite us purely out of kindness. 

“Kim Jinwoo, what do you want to do…” 

“Let’s just go.” 

Jeong Sahwa seemed to sense something too, whispering to me, but I pressed on. 

Inside, the smell of herbs grew stronger. 

A bearded middle-aged man was scolding the girl. 

“You rascal! Why are you bringing people here now?” 

“But if this keeps up…” 

“You can’t just drag innocent people into this…” 

He noticed us and tried to cover his embarrassment with a cough. 

He was probably the girl’s father. 

Best to hear the details from him. 

“Sorry, my kid’s a bit of a troublemaker. I’ll make it up to you.” 

“Forget that tell me what you were just talking about.” 

I wasn’t about to let a juicy bit of info slip away. 

Sensing my determination, 

the father sighed and explained. 

In short, it was a case of bullying. 

A martial sect had demanded something from this man. 

Despite a huge reward, he refused. 

Finally, the sect lost patience and opened a new clinic across the street. 

‘That’s a clinic? Looks like a hotel to me.’ 

It was so flashy it didn’t even look like a clinic. 

But despite the exterior, the new place had skilled people, so everyone went there instead. 

“Is it really that precious?” 

“Of course! It’s a family heirloom! How could I just give it away?” 

The father was passionate, 

and even after regaining his composure, it was clear how much it meant to him. 

But why did the girl bring us here? 

“Well, you all looked strong…” 

“You can’t just drag strangers into this! No snacks for you today!” 

“I’m sorry!” 

It was a peaceful scene. 

After all the chaos of this world, it was nice to see something heartwarming for a change. 

“Well, I get it. But can we stay here for a while?” 

“Yes? Well, we do have rooms…” 

Nothing to be afraid of. 

With just our group, we could wipe out a small sect. 

Even a big sect wouldn’t be a problem. 

Maybe I was being complacent, 

but honestly, it would be stranger for us to lose. 

“Alright, sorry for the trouble.” 

“No, we’re the ones imposing.” 

At least we wouldn’t have to sleep in the carriage. 

Just as I was relaxing, the door slid open and an irritated voice rang out. 

“Hey, still resisting? How long do you think you can keep this old clinic running?” 

“Who are you?” 

“Huh?” 

An uninvited guest. 

I glared at the cocky woman and asked. 

She narrowed her eyes and shot back, 

“Who are you? Are you here to get in my way too?” 

“Just answer the question.” 

I asked first who answers a question with a question? 

Her lips quivered in anger, 

then she snorted. 

“Hmph! Don’t be shocked I’m Dan Yul of the Sichuan Tang Clan!” 

“…” 

“Speechless, huh?” 

Who’s that? I honestly had no idea. 

I glanced at the others. Hwayeon stepped forward and looked down at Dan Yul. 

“Sichuan Tang Clan brat. You’ve changed a lot.” 

“Huh? Who are you, old lady? Want to taste some poison?” 

Dan Yul bared her teeth at Hwayeon. 

Hwayeon calmly opened her fan decorated with plum blossoms and fanned herself. 

“Everyone knows the Tang Clan is formidable. But you should recognize who’s standing in front of you.” 

“What? People always do what I say…” 

“How dare you speak like that in front of me?” 

Hwayeon usually spoke gently and politely, 

but now, driven by anger, her tone was stern as she tried to pressure Dan Yul. 

But Dan Yul, clueless, crossed the line. 

A fragrant scent of plum blossoms began to waft from around Hwayeon. 

“Wait, is she… from the Mount Hua Sect? With this much power…!” 

“Finally figured it out, brat?” 

Dan Yul broke out in a cold sweat. 

But once water is spilled, you can’t put it back in the cup. 

With everyone’s eyes on them, 

the air was tense as everyone watched silently. 

“Tch! I’ll let it go this time, but I’ll get my revenge next time!” 

She ran away like a third-rate villain. 

Once she was gone, I checked to see if the girl’s father was okay. 

“Are you hurt… huh?” 

“I’m sorry. My kid didn’t know any better…” 

I guess even the Tang Clan would find Hwayeon intimidating. 

To a mere clinic owner, the head of the Mount Hua Sect must be terrifying. 

Hwayeon kept a stern face, but her eyes looked a bit flustered. 

“It’s fine. We chose to come here, so don’t worry.” 

“But, may I ask who you are, sir?” 

“Huh?” 

He was talking to me? 

I checked behind me, but he was definitely looking at me. 

“Why do you ask?” 

“You spoke so casually to the Mount Hua Sect leader I wondered if you were her equal or superior.” 

This guy’s pretty sharp. 

Well, as a doctor, he’d have to be observant. 

“No, it’s just a personal friendship. Don’t worry.” 

“R-really…?” 

“Didn’t you say he was like the Sex Demon?” 

Just as things were wrapping up nicely, Gayoun ruined it. 

She lounged on the floor, looking at me as if nothing was wrong. 

I swear, I’ll bury her one day. 

But before I could scold her, the father bowed his head in fear. 

“To think you’re equal to the Sex Demon… Please forgive me and spare my life!” 

“I’m not that kind of person!” 

No matter what, I wouldn’t hurt someone innocent. 

But that Dan Yul woman I decided I’d definitely deal with her. 

“Can I ask one thing?” 

“A-anything, just spare my life…” 

“I said that’s not necessary. What is it that woman wanted?” 

The father hesitated, then got up and brought out a hidden item. 

“This has been passed down in our family for generations. It’s a tool that can cure any illness.” 

“Given how much she uses poison, it’d be handy to have one.” 

Just hearing about it, I could tell it was special. 

Even in modern society, people would pay any price for it. 

But… but… 

‘Why does it look like that?’ 

The item he called a “tool” 

was none other than a jade dildo. 

Of all places for a common sense-altering element to pop up, it had to be here.
