# The main characters only I know episode 358
“Well, then what are you going to do?”
“Shouldn’t we hunt down the traitor inside?”
Yoohyeon replied that it was no big deal. That relaxed attitude made the inn owner suspect that there really was a traitor inside.
This man didn’t just spit out whatever came to his mind, right?
As if reading those thoughts, Yuhyeon smiled and stood up.
“Now that we know where he is hiding, let’s take action right away. “I have to get over Nasaengmun Gate as quickly as possible.”
That voice contained a strange charisma that could not be resisted. The inn owner was at a loss as to what to do when he saw Yuhyeon’s attitude.
Kate sighed and took his hand.
“what are you doing? “Move quickly.”
“Uh, huh? Is this really okay?”
“He is a person who has thoughts about everything. I’m not saying this in vain. maybe.”
“Maybe… … .”
“Anyway, we have to grab anything at a time when there is no other way. “Let’s gather all the liberation fighter compatriots in the city.”
“Oh, if you’re going to send something, please tell everyone to come to the square.”
Kate nodded that she understood what Yoohyeon said, but the inn owner still didn’t seem to understand.
“If everyone gathers in the square, they are bound to be noticed by the legion… … .”
“I will gather the eyes of the Legion. “You two, please just focus on bringing people together.”
“You’re pulling it together? how?”
“What do you think you are going to do?”
The inn owner became dumbfounded by Yoohyeon’s smile.
Surely it’s not what I think? He held his anxious heart and prayed that this would not happen.
And, exactly 10 minutes later.
Yuhyeon did exactly what he said.
The innkeeper realized that his disturbing imagination had become reality.

Yuhyeon, standing in the center of the fog-filled square, looked up at the execution platform.
The hanging corpses swayed helplessly in the occasional wind. Yuhyeon raised a black force in his hand.
Since I had to attract everyone’s attention, I planned to start off with a flashy start.
Quagwagwang!
The force extending from his fingertips destroyed the execution platform. Bodies that had been left to rot for a long time also turned into powder and disappeared. Since I couldn’t give her cremation, it seemed reasonable to at least send her off like this.
“W-what’s going on!”
“It’s a square! “A rebel has appeared in the square!”
Soldiers dressed in black armor gathered in perfect order into the square.
Yuhyeon stood still in the center of the square until they surrounded him.
“what. “Only one?”
“Why are you dressed like that? “Are you crazy?”
The soldiers of the corps surrounded the square tightly, even though they were puzzled by Yuhyeon’s appearance. All the citizens of the city who were wandering around the square were so shocked that they ran away, and soon, only Yuhyeon and over a hundred soldiers remained inside the square.
Yuhyeon looked around at them and muttered.
“Is everyone here?”
“Who are you!”
“Does it matter now?”
In a situation like this where they are confronting each other, what is the identity and what is it that makes you wonder?
If you knew his name, would you at least avoid killing him? That’s funny.
Although they have a large number, they are all of mediocre skills. Despite this, they must have used the power of the Legion to kill, plunder, and harass people.
“I just want to ask you one thing right here and now. “Only those who join the Legion and pride themselves on not having at least killed the helpless should raise their hands.”
No one reacted to Yuhyeon’s words. Even if they wanted to hear it, not a single person would have raised their hand.
I guess so. Among the soldiers gathered here, there was not one who did not smell blood.
So I thought it was fortunate. At least there was no need to go through the classification process.
“I’ll finish it quickly.”
There was no need to wear a mask this time.
* * *
“oh my god.”
Kate, who had gathered her liberation army colleagues, muttered unconsciously as she looked at the black pillar rising from the central square in the distance.
It was the same for other Liberation Army compatriots who followed her.
In a city where everything seemed blurry and even the boundaries were unclear, the black pillar that appeared through the fog was very clear.
“What on earth have you done?”
Although they boasted about attracting attention, is this something they can do just because they do it?
At this point, I would believe it if the Holy Spirit of Malicious Hyang descended on that place.
But they know. This was a city that could be said to be the outermost part of the mixed world, and the real people were in the central land of the mixed world beyond the Naseengmun.
That black pillar, the gigantic storm rising with the force to pierce this world, was the result of the man who ordered them to gather their comrades.
And that too alone.
“oh my god.”
“I’m going crazy.”
When they arrived at the scene, the liberation forces all froze in their seats and cried out loud.
The square was filled with the bodies of fallen soldiers. Although their appearance was not gruesome, it was not unknown that they all died in agony.
Someone swallowed their saliva as they looked at the man standing tall in the center.
“Are you all here?”

The man, Kang Yu-hyeon, smiled and welcomed them.
“Then let’s start catching thieves.”
That smile contained an irresistible power. Kate, Jimmy, and 50 fellow liberation fighters entered the square covered in thick fog again.
“You asked us all to gather together, what is the reason?”
A young man looked at Yuhyeon and boldly asked. Her innkeeper rolled her eyes and tried to stop her from doing anything foolish, but Yuhyeon nodded and said it was okay.
“I come to find the lord of this city.”
“We are looking for the lord, why are you gathering us? “It sounds like there might be a lord hiding within us.”
“I saw it correctly.”
When Yoohyeon answered in approval, an uproar arose among the liberation forces. Some looked blatantly displeased.
It couldn’t have sounded good to say that the other person was strong and that the lord they had been looking for was hiding among the people they had been with for two years.
“Well, I know how bad you feel. But that doesn’t mean we can ignore the truth.”
Just as the liberation army was in a hurry, Yuhyeon also did not want to waste time looking for the lord.
I was planning on crossing Nasaengmun Gate as quickly as possible and going to Heukroegung Palace, where Kang Hye-rim resides.
“Why are you making such a fuss?”
“Wouldn’t it take time for reinforcements to come anyway? “It will be over before then.”
“how?”
“There is a way.”
Of course, the most reliable way is to analyze the identity one by one through books, but there was not enough time to look through all 50 books.
Yuhyeon decided to take a different approach. A reliable way to check 50 people at once.
“Everyone please look at this.”
Yoohyeon picked something up with one hand. The Liberation Army frowned upon seeing this. What Yoohyeon held in her hand was the head of a dead person.
“What does this look like?”
“What do you mean, it’s a human head?”
“The head. “It’s just a lump of flesh.”
“What happened to everyone’s eyes? “That’s just a cat corpse.”
Other answers emerged in no time. Although everyone was clearly looking at the same thing, the results they produced were all different.
What’s even more strange is that even as he said those words, the Liberation Army did not feel anything strange about his answer.
“You still don’t know?”
Yoohyeon smiled and showed what she was holding in her hand floating in the air.
“What I showed you was just a lump of my strength.”
“yes?”
“I beg your pardon?”
“But you obviously saw the same thing but came up with something different. Why do you think this is?”
No one could answer Yuhyeon’s question. They were still confused. As if he were intoxicated by the magic of the fog.
“Fog… … ?”
Yoohyeon grinned at Kate’s muttering.
“That is correct. “To be precise, it happened because of the strange fog flowing out of that gate.”
“It’s because of the fog at Nasaengmun Gate.”
“Does that make sense?”
Voices of confusion echoed from all over the fog.
Yuhyeon continued speaking in a calm voice.
“Do you know what Luo Saengmun is? Do you know what exactly made that Nasaengmun famous and named?”
There was no answer. There was no way anyone knew. There was no one in this outskirts who remembered what could be considered a remnant of the Earth from five years ago, which is now gone.
“Nasaengmun is a novel written by Ryunosuke Akutagawa in 1915. It’s a simple story about people stealing and stealing from others in order to survive. However, it was after Akira Kurosawa’s film
“Rashomon?”
“This is a reading of Na Saeng-mun. And here, the contents of Nasaengmun are combined with
This is where the term Rashomon effect, which perceives the same phenomenon from multiple perspectives and interprets it differently, comes from.
In other words, this foggy city in front of Luo Sheng Gate is a space where the Rashomon effect is always in effect.
This is possible because this is a mixed world where all stories become reality.
As he entered the city, he looked at everything. His eyes looked at the real thing, but Kate and Jimmy couldn’t. Aren’t trash bags on the street called corpses, and people squatting are called animals?
There, Yuhyeon realized the uniqueness of this city.
“You all see the same thing in this fog, but you don’t recognize it properly, so your opinions differ. But you know what? “When I asked you a little while ago what this was, everyone gave various answers.”
Everyone nodded.
They listened to Yuhyeon’s words as if they were possessed.
“But there was only one of them, who seemed to sense something and kept his mouth shut and did not respond. “It’s as if he doesn’t know if he will ever give the right answer.”
Yuhyeon’s gaze was directed at a man who was among the gaps in the liberation army.
He was a young man with an ordinary look, nothing special about him, and who blended in very well with the atmosphere around him.
It is so assimilated with the surroundings that it feels ‘strange’ the moment you recognize it.
Yoohyeon grinned as she saw the man’s eyes change.
The corners of the mouth rise, and the eyes curve like a crescent moon.
The Liberation Army, including Kate, felt chills the moment they saw that smile.
Unless they were mistaken, the moment Yuhyeon smiled, a shadow appeared on his face, and only his eyes and mouth seemed to be visible.
“found.”
“… … !”
The young man who was hiding among the liberation troops gritted his teeth and took out something from within his arms. The movement was so fast that the people next to him could not react.
And one step faster than that, Yoohyeon grabbed the man’s wrist and subdued him.
“Well. You can’t try to run away. “How many people have gathered here to look for you?”
Yuhyeon used her inner energy to suppress the entire body of Yeongju, who was hiding in the gap between the liberation forces, to prevent him from doing anything foolish.
The liberation army, who belatedly understood the situation, was horrified to realize that Ganja was hiding among them.
He was not just a spy, but the lord they had been searching for for two years as they searched the city like crazy.
It was hard to find where it was hiding, but I never would have guessed that it was this close.
Rather than the joy of finally finding the lord, a feeling of despair came first.
“No, that’s ridiculous. “There was a lord among us?”
“What on earth have we been doing for two years?”
Ignoring the people muttering in vain, Yuhyeon gently stepped on the lord’s neck.
“You seem to have quite an interesting hobby. Even though he knows that the liberation army is chasing him, he hides among them and plays house. And he must have been laughing inside. “The lord you are looking for is so close.”
“you… … Who are you… … .”
Yeongju asked, opening his trembling lips.
“Who would it be?”
“Playing with words… … .”
“That’s not what’s important right now. “You have the authority to open the Gate of Luo, right?”
The lord’s complexion turned pale. A fire burned in Yuhyeon’s eyes.
“open it.”
“Inside… … Are you saying you want to go? I don’t think I know who’s in there… … .”
“There must be a Black Lightning Lord. “Her legions led by her and her elite soldiers under them.”
“And you’re still going to go?”
“Anything other than going is my freedom.”
The lord trembled and spoke at Yuhyeon’s words.
“The moment I open the door to the wild, they will move.”
“Guys, who?”
“The Black Sword Dan (黑劍團). It is an elite corps led by the monarch. They are all level 100. Those guys will come to this city to investigate why the Luo Saeng Gate was opened. And we’ll find out if I’ve betrayed you or if there are rebels inside the city. If that happens, everyone will die. “They have no mercy.”
This was Yoohyeon’s first time hearing the name of the Black Swordsman, but the liberation forces were different.
“Huh, Black Swordsman?”
“Those crazy sword demons are coming?”
I saw some people trembling with fear, as if they were already getting chills just hearing that name.
Just from that reaction, Yoohyeon realized that the Black Swordsman was a very dangerous group.
“doesn’t care. open it.”
“… … I’m serious?”
“I.”
Yoohyeon gritted her teeth as if chewing at Yeongju.
“Do you know if you’re kidding me?”
“… … okay.”
Youngju sighed and eventually closed his eyes.
Kugugoogung!
Immediately afterwards, the huge Nasaengmun began to open with a loud noise. Everyone looked at the door in disbelief. It was hard to even fathom how hard it had been to open that door.
The road to the Black Thunder Palace, where the Black Thunder Lord resides, has been opened.
The lord smiled a humble smile.
“Well, since I opened it, please save my life…” … .”
“I’ll save you.”
Yuhyeon grabbed the lord by the collar, pulled him up, and threw him into the gap between the liberation forces.
“I am.”
“Hey, hey!”
The gaze of the liberation army turned directly to Yeongju. The man who had been toying with them for two years, pretending to be their colleague, watching and laughing at them from closer than anyone else, was crawling like a bug in front of them.
Soon, a man’s desperate scream echoed throughout the square.
“… … “What are you going to do now?”
Kate approached Yoohyeon and asked. She succeeded in opening the door, but the commotion was too loud. And if the Black Swordsman comes, then the story will be different. Because among the targets she had warned her to avoid, the Black Swordsman was included.
“Nothing changes.”
“yes?”
“You can’t avoid them anyway. “The moment you guard the entrance, you will inevitably collide.”
“then… … .”
“okay. It breaks through.”
There was no hesitation in Yuhyeon’s voice.
* * *
The 20 members of the Black Blade, which can be considered the Black Thunder Lord’s elite unit, were not embarrassed and positioned themselves at the entrance even though the Rasaeng Gate suddenly opened.
Their role is to exclude suspicious people near Nasaengmun, or sometimes to hunt down rebels hiding in cities close to Nasaengmun.
Even if the door suddenly opens, their job does not change.
“I don’t know what the lord of this place suddenly got up to, but everyone must be strictly guarded. “I don’t know what the rebels might do.”
“They won’t be able to get past here anyway. At best, they will arrest the city and stage a sit-in protest. Let’s get together with about 10 people and go. “Is there anyone whose knife has become dull?”
“It’s been a while since I’ve tasted blood.”
The members of the Black Sword were already happy to kill people. These were all swordsmen who were crazy about swords. Of course, there was never a day when blood dried on their swords.
The Black Swordsman was not impatient. Since we couldn’t confront them at the level of the liberation forces anyway, it didn’t matter if we moved leisurely.
Unless their leader comes, the liberation army will also be concerned, and when the leader comes, the legion’s reinforcements will arrive.
Then someone pointed a finger to the sky.
“for a moment. “Is something flying over there?”
“what?”
Everyone’s eyes were on the city. The inlaid gate opened, and something black flew towards us in a parabola through the gradually thinning fog of the city.
The speed is too fast to shoot it down. The black object eventually landed in the center of the Black Blade.
Coo!
Yuhyeon, wearing the mask of Aporia, lightly brushed off the dust on her collar and straightened her bent knees.
“I don’t have enough time, so just tell me the business right away.”
His gaze glanced at the Black Swordsman once.
“Come at me.”
