Chapter 134  

Chapter 134   . Queen NinetailsIt was quite an enthusiastic welcome .

Bang! Bang bang!

Sounds of thunderous drumming could be heard .

“Herooo~!”

“Kya~!”

“We love you!”

Many beautiful fox-women cheered and tried to hug Kang Chul-In, their tails swaying temptingly .

“Woah, so cool!”

“Thank you, hero!”

“You’re the best!”

And the male demi-humans also cheered for him, their gazes full of envy and respect .

“Hero!”

“Look over here, Mr . Hero!”

Some small demi-human kids also came by and hugged him, handing him flowers .

What…

Kang Chul-In was surprised by all the fanfare within the city .

There were a couple of reasons behind all of this .

The first reason was that the ranger group that returned had spread the news about Kang Chul-In’s martial prowess, and the second reason was that he had gone into the base of the werewolves headfirst, before emerging unscathed .

That was right .

In the eyes of the demi-humans, Kang Chul-In was a true hero that had saved not only the ranger squad but also the women that were kept within Kalevala . It made sense that they were praising him so much .

“Kang Chul-In!!”

-Bark Bark!

Dorian Explorer and Jack came to greet him .

Dding!

And at that moment, a notification popped up .

“ . . . . . . . ”

Kang Chul-In was lost for words .

Even though he had gotten all types of titles in his previous life, this was the first time he had ever come across such a title . He didn’t like how the system forced this title on him, but the title immediately showed its effects .

“Kyaa~~!”

“Marry me!”

“I love you, hero!”

The demi-human women started to scream harder and cheered for Kang Chul-In .

There were even some that revealed some of their assets to Kang Chul-In . It was because of his increase in charm .

“Kang Chul-In, thank you!”

Dorian came by, and thanked Kang Chul-In .

“As expected, you came to save me!”

“No…”

“What?”

“I just went because I had something to do there . Do you honestly think that I knew you were there? It was just pure coincidence that I found you there . ”

“ . . . Tut . ”

Dorian pouted .

“Thank you anyway . For saving me, and Jack . I’ll definitely pay this back in the future . ”

Dorian said, before stretching his hand out for a handshake .

“I don’t shake hands with pushovers like you . ”

“Kuk, that’s mean . I even stretched my hands out for you…”

“Infection . ”

“Sorry?”

“I’m scared that your idiocy might infect me as well . ”

Kang Chul-In avoided Dorian as if he were a virus . And the title ‘hero, oh my hero’ was able to add to this .

“Hero, this way . ”

Emily led Kang Chul-In .

“Where are we going? Are we going to the main palace?”

“No sir . ”

“No? I came here to talk to her as a Lord, so where are we going?”

“We’re going to the Sarangbang* . ”

“The Sarangbang?”

At the mention of such a random place, Kang Chul-In’s face stiffened .

Wasn’t the Sarangbang a place that was used to greet visitors, and not Lords? It was a place that wasn’t suitable for the meeting between Kang Chul-In and the Ninetails .

“Ah, don’t misunderstand . ”

As if reading Kang Chul-In’s thoughts, Emily laughed .

“They call it the Sarangbang, but it’s a sacred area that no-one has stepped foot into for the last 1000 years . It is nicknamed the ‘palace of agreement’, and is a very special place . ”

“A thousand years?”

“Yes, sir . No one has ever met the queen in that sacred area for 1000 years . You can be proud that you’ve broken the record . ”

After listening to Emily’s explanation, Kang Chul-In’s face relaxed once more .

He wasn’t being treated unfairly, but rather being treated extremely generously by being able to step into an area that no one had been in for 1000 years .

After walking for around 10 minutes, Kang Chul-In was able to finally see ‘the palace of agreement’ .

Ting!

From far away, Kang Chul-In could hear the sound of a bell .

Ting ting ting!

“Hero . ”

Emily said to Kang Chul-In, at the entrance .

“You can go in now . ”

“By myself?”

“Yes . No one other than our queen is allowed to go inside that area . Only you, the hero can go inside . ”

“Ah, is that so . ”

Kang Chul-In nodded .

“Then I’m going . ”

Saying that, Kang Chul-In entered the Palace of Agreement .

It was beautiful .

The flowers in the garden were extremely vibrant in life, showing how well they were being taken care of .

The palace itself looked beautiful too .

Strangely enough, the palace seemed to look as if it was a mix between a traditional Korean Hanok* and baroque style constructions . This created a synergy effect that allowed it to have a traditional and antique look .

Ah, I also want a palace like this .

Looking at this place, Kang Chul-In’s desire as a Lord rose .

. . . Tut, I’ll have to wait since I don’t have money .

It was when he was deep in thought .

“You’ve come . ”magic

An extremely soft voice pierced the eardrums of Kang Chul-In .

The voice was extremely gentle and beautiful, and it seemed to be pulling Kang Chul-In’s heartstrings .

“I’ve been waiting . ”

A woman appeared behind him .

So this woman… is the Ninetails .

For the first time in a long time, Kang Chul-In was truly astonished .

Snow-white hair,

Eyes that were gentle yet also gleamed like a tiger .

Beautiful, jade-like skin .

And that wasn’t it .

Her lips were temptingly plump, and her eyelashes seemed like the moon .

And her body .

She had a bountiful chest and a thin waist, wide hips, and a beautiful body line .

The woman that seemed to be the Ninetails had an absolutely perfect visual appearance . Even Kang Chul-In who had met countless beauties in his life had to admit her beauty was on another level .

“Are you the Ninetails?”

Kang Chul-In asked, with a proud voice .

Even though the Ninetails was beautiful, there was no way that Kang Chul-In would be tempted by a woman’s charms . And not only that, wasn’t he here to talk business with the Ninetails?

“I’m Overlord Kang Chul-In that controls the Pandemonium region .

Kang Chul-In introduced himself .

Ting ting ting!

From somewhere, he could once again hear the chiming of a bell .

“That doesn’t matter . ”

The Ninetails laughed softly .

“That doesn’t matter?”

“Your status doesn’t matter to me . ”

She spoke words that Kang Chul-In didn’t understand .

“So, you’ve finally come . ”

But the following words made even less sense .

“Us… all the Ninetails from the beginning of time…

Have been waiting, waiting for you . And finally, after 1000 years… Finally you’ve come . ”

At this moment, 100 questions filled Kang Chul-In’s brain .

“I’ve been waiting for so long, dear husband . ”

Kang Chul-In’s face stiffened .

What was she talking about?
