Chapter 75: Hey, Young Master, Did You Know That Lady Chunhyang Has Firm Breasts?
Hey, Young Master, Did You Know That Lady Chunhyang Has Firm Breasts?
"What are you laughing about?"
"Oh, Chaos King, you're here, sorry!"
"It's Devil Chaos King."
"Oh, right! As expected, you've got a great sense of naming!"
"You've got a long way to go if you want to measure up to me."
"Haha, right!"
"Whoahaha!"
The room was dripping with ostentatious interior decorations.
A chubby man with glasses, or better known as Mr. Double Chin, was chuckling. Lounging back in his plush chair, he looked like a slab of organic bacon."Oh, when you asked why I was laughing, it's just something good happened."
"May I inquire what it is?"
"Our long-awaited dream is finally coming closer… You understand, right?"
"Yes, I'm well aware. It's all thanks to that ‘Kim Minsoo,' isn't it…?"
"Exactly. Haha!"
The chubby man, genuinely pleased with the good news, let out another hearty laugh.
There's not a single flaw in my plans, no matter how much I scrutinize them. Sure, Minsoo blabbering to Melanie about the gate was an oversight. But how could I blame his naive desire to impress the woman?
"Hm… Even with Baek Taeyang's meddling… well… it's hard to call it a flaw."
"Of course, what could that guy possibly achieve?"
"I think the same. It's… almost unnerving how alike our thoughts are."
"Hehe… As expected. The qualification for becoming the Devil Chaos King isn't something just anyone can claim."
It was a perfect tiki-taka, an unstoppable flow of conversation. No one dared to interrupt, and each word seamlessly segued into the next. It was truly a fantastic rhythm.
"Recently… Baek Taeyang's presence has become too prominent… to infiltrate the gate like that…"
"But didn't you meticulously calculate everything and prepare a foolproof guide?"
"Hehehe, that's also true." The chubby man chuckled ominously as he looked down at the plan laid out on the table.
At the top, the words "Academy Pure Love Diary" were boldly written. Below, a mishmash of characters was haphazardly scribbled in a crude mind map.
"Of course, in the classic masterpiece The Tale of Chunhyang, Baek Taeyang won't gain a thing."
"You're indeed terrifying, Master."
"Hehehe, heed Devil Chaos King's orders! Stimulate the Nobles even more and prepare to usher in a new era!"
"Understood!"
As soon as he heard the response, the chubby man rose from his seat, "Hmm… I should pay a visit to the Nobles."
Being a one-man show is lonely, but…
"Minsoo should do fine on his own now."
If he just follows the path I've set for him, he'll grow rapidly. The sight of Kim Minsoo, who will soon clear the gate and crush Baek Taeyang, is already within my grasp.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"I never thought the difficulty would ramp up to this extent…" Minsoo reminisced about the quest window that popped up after he pretended to faint following a beating from the pimp.
The quest window presented two choices, and only now did he grasp why there was a recommended option.
———————————Congratulations! You've acquired the [Hero's Cliché] through a tough defeat!
The quest will now serve as a catalyst for the awakening of [Yi Mongryong]!
1. The Easy and Fast Path (Recommended, highly recommended, easy difficulty, please choose this at once.)
2. March of Hardship (Similar rewards to option 1, but slightly better. However, not recommended. Please choose option 1 unconditionally.)
Please select one of the quests!
Would you like to choose option 1?———————————
"I should've gone with option 1 at that moment…"
Back then, Minsoo suspected there might be a trap on the so-called easy and fast path.
Dealing with an S-rank gate and enduring such a high-difficulty environment, even against the tough monster, the pimp. Did it really make sense to offer an easy path through a quest in such circumstances?
He had a feeling there must be some sort of trap.
"He was looking out for me…"
Even as Minsoo leaned towards option 2, the quest window insisted several times for him to reconsider his choice.
———————————Are you sure you want to choose option 2?
While option 2 offers slightly better rewards than option 1, the difference is not significant. If you fail to clear the gate properly, you will not gain anything.
Wouldn't it be better to choose option 1 for a quicker clear rather than facing difficulty?
There is nothing to be ashamed of!
Would you like to choose option 1?———————————
He should have gone with option 1 at that moment. But there was only one reason why Kim Minsoo didn't choose it. It was because of the response from PureDiaryAuthor.
"At this point, I believe it's time to delve into the truth of everything."
It wasn't clear what the truth of everything specifically referred to. But if PureDiaryAuthor said so, then Minsoo believed it must be true.
After all, PureDiaryAuthor had provided the location of the S-rank gate with absolute trust. How could he not believe?
So Minsoo chose option 2.
Believing in PureDiaryAuthor and confronting the situation with my own beliefs rather than blindly trusting the quest!
Isn't that the kind of figure he would desire?
"Anyway, I'm not taught Hanja in character education…"
In modern times, hanja isn't used as much. Even from the beginning, it's merely a basic knowledge taught during character education.
When dividing hanja into levels 1-9, what is taught in character education only goes up to level 4. With that much, it's knowledge that won't be lacking in everyday life.
However, the old exams in this era demand knowledge of hanja far beyond what's needed for everyday life. And since Hanja isn't even written properly in the first place, Minsoo can't read it correctly.
———————————You have chosen option 2!
The clear conditions tailored to the March of Hardship are revealed!
Clear Conditions: Pass the state examination without any assistance (0/1).
Succeed in making love with Chunhyang! (0/1).
Failure to meet the clear conditions will result in the failure of the gate conquest and immediate expulsion.
※ There are no repercussions for failing the gate conquest.———————————
Minsoo glanced once more at the challenging clear conditions displayed before him. The silver lining amidst the gloom was the absence of repercussions for failing.
"So, no gate wave if I fail."
Gate wave, where monsters spill out if the gate conquest fails. Just the thought of it not happening brought him much relief.
Considering the gate's secluded location, a gate wave would spell disaster.
Well, Melanie will be waiting for me outside, so even if there's a gate wave, I'm not worried. Or maybe she expects me to succeed without any help…
I guess I understand that much. Is it because our hearts are connected?
Minsoo believed he knew everything about Melanie. Why else would she want him as a model for the major corporation, Kaivan?
There's only one explanation.
She likes me.
After being dumped by Yoomin, he was on the lookout for a good woman.
"Wait for me, Melanie… Once I clear the gate, I will… Hahaha!" He chuckled to himself, the laughter echoing in the small tile-roofed house.
Just as he was about to resume studying Hanja…
"Young Master, Lady Chunhyang has arrived."
"Oh really? How did such a delicate girl manage to navigate this rough road? I must go and greet her!" Minsoo's face lit up even more at the servant's words.
"Not long until I go to Hanyang, but it's not a big deal. Because I'm the protagonist, the hero, and in Hanyang, I can only study!"
"Surrounded by people studying together, memorizing Hanja and acing the exam is inevitable."
He drew this conclusion from his 21st-century mindset being more progressive than those from ancient times.
"First, Chunhyang!"
Chunhyang is truly beautiful.
It's not for nothing that Yi Mongryong desired her and Byeon Satto wanted to take her away.
In such a small village, for a love story of this magnitude to emerge, the only thing that matters was the look.
She truly has the appearance to convince everyone. With elegant and delicate features, porcelain-like skin, and even firm breasts.
"Is she outside?"
"Yes, she is, but…"
"Why are you hesitating? Spit it out quickly."
"She came with another man…"
"What?"
Minsoo almost fell over when he heard the words ‘another man' while putting on his shoes in a hurry. It was because memories of crying at the mall surfaced from the past.
No, I worry too much… Although she's a courtesan, she's still a nobleman's daughter, so she might have servants or even hired a male bodyguard.
Minsoo nodded vigorously to himself, trying to rationalize the situation.
"I'll… go and open the door."
"Yes."
Yet, despite his efforts, his voice quivered. He swallowed hard, praying fervently that history wouldn't repeat itself.
"Hey, Young Master, did you know that Lady Chunhyang has firm breasts?"
My Chunhyang… held in the arms of the pimp who nearly killed me back then…
"Y-Young… Master…" Chunhyang called out to him, her voice trembling as her breasts were being caressed.
"Agh…!"
Suddenly, an intense headache engulfed Kim Minsoo.
