How a Black-Haired Barbarian Survived the Labyrinth in Another World-Chapter 74: Why are you here?
A dark inn with only a small light left.
Jeong Yu-shin observed Gallaheim with his arm around his shoulder.
He sent Dulchangko to the monster dismantling center. It was something worth reporting to Aldain.
He had decided to wait at the inn until Dulchangko returned, so he had some time.
“Gallaheim, let’s be honest. Didn’t you go to the eastern district?”
“···Why do you think so?”
“I’m guessing. Maybe you went to play slave?”
“...”
Gallaheim was silent.
Even then, he kept touching his nose.
Did he hit the nail on the head?
‘Gnomes are really hard to trust.’
He was on the verge of PTSD because of Ditto.
“I’m not asking you to question me. Play slave? I like it too. Yes, yes. Morally speaking, no problem? I think it’s a healthy culture.”
“Is that so?”
Gallaheim slowly raised his head.
Jung Yu-shin leaned back against his chair, away from Gallaheim.
“Be honest. Did you go to the East District? I think that’s the only place where slave play is done.”
“···That’s right.”
Then that’s right.
I expected it when I heard that the brothel was in the East District.
If there’s a suspicious place in the future, wouldn’t it be mostly right if I took a picture of the East District?
Jung Yu-shin crossed his arms and opened his mouth.
“Did Oswald approach you?”
“···That’s right.”
Somehow, I thought the timing of Oswald’s signal was exquisite. I guessed that information had leaked out somewhere.
Then.
Who would be the one who could tell me about his current situation?
Simple.
Excluding Soline and Pirion, who were in the priesthood, the only one left was Gallaheim.
“What did you say to Oswald?”
“···I didn’t say much. All I did was ask if you were busy these days.”
“Whew.”
Jung Yu-shin leaned back a little deeper in his chair.
“...”
Jung Yu-shin silently looked at Gallaheim.
Gallaheim twisted his body here and there as if he was feeling uneasy.
Should I kill him?
Or not?
Jung Yu-shin knocked on the table.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Finally, Jung Yu-shin opened his mouth.
“Gallaheim, it would be better to take off your mask.”
A calm voice flowed out.
“···Why?”
Gallaheim asked.
Jung Yu-shin laughed a little in disbelief.
“Do you want to die?”
“···I understand.”
Gallaheim took off his nose mask.
Jung Yu-shin pushed his face in. He met Gallaheim’s eyes at close range.
“I’ll ask again. Did Oswald only ask about my current situation? Are you busy or not?”
“···That’s right. He really only asked that.”
Gallaheim answered.
His nose had not grown long.
‘Just this once.’
I’ll spare you.
He didn’t believe that a low-level explorer could resist the underworld’s executives.
“I understand. Is something happening in the eastern district these days?”
“I don’t know the details, but I heard that people who have turned into monsters or animals have been disappearing these days. That’s why there’s a chaotic atmosphere in the eastern district.”
“What about the red-light district? I heard that Barbaroi is there.”
Gallaheim’s face turned pale. On top of that, his body was trembling.
“It’s a den now. No one can go in. The smell of semen has been filling the red-light district and sewers for a long time.”
‘Fuck.’
Jung Yu-shin got up from his seat.
“Please wait a moment.”
“Understood.”
He went up to the second floor. He went into his room, put on his sword belt, and fastened his arming sword to his waist.
“Rin?”
There was no sound. I thought she was sleeping, so I lifted the blanket slightly, but Rin wasn’t there.
I hadn’t seen Rin in the past week.
She was such a free spirit that I thought it would be okay if she didn’t return to the inn for a few days, but she had been out for a long time.
‘No way?’
The rumor that Gallaheim had just mentioned flashed through his mind.
Even if Ingrid had cast a secret spell, he couldn’t stop his anxious heart from slowly rising.
‘It’s a needless worry.’
Rin was Ingrid’s servant at the Labyrinth Committee.
I pressed my worries and left the room, going down to the first floor.
Suddenly, Dulchangko was standing there, holding clothes in his hand.
“Here is the coat. Aldain-sama told me to take it.”
Jung Yu-shin shook his head.
“It’s summer now, what kind of monster leather coat is this? I’m going to die from the heat. Let’s go.”
“Isn’t it dangerous?”
“You said I wouldn’t die?”

“I’m fine, but I’m worried about Ska-sama.”
“What’s going on?”
Jung Yu-shin looked at his outfit.
A white linen shirt with the sleeves rolled up.
Brown cotton pants.
Walkers with iron soles.
An arming sword hanging loosely from his sword belt.
Jung Yu-shin opened the door to the inn.
“Gallahheim probably knows where it is. Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
The three men left the inn and went out into the night.
After walking for about two hours, they arrived at the East District checkpoint.
“Curfew.”
The guard stopped them. Dulchanko approached the guard and whispered.
The guard’s eyes widened.
“I... really? Let’s go.”
Gallaheim looked at Jung Yushin and Dulchanko with surprised eyes.
“Did you think we couldn’t go?”
Jung Yushin asked.
“I didn’t know the method was a frontal assault.”
“What’s so great about a frontal assault? If you hit someone in the head, it’s all frontal assault. Let’s go.”
They passed the checkpoint and entered the East District.
It was a place they hadn’t been to in a long time.
It was completely different from the quiet South District.
The dazzling streets were chaotic with monsters and people.
They walked the streets with Gallaheim in the lead.
Passing through the street of stores selling suspicious items.
Passing through the street of bars with colorful lights.
We walked for about 3 hours.
The number of monsters and people gradually increased.
“Is this really the right way?”
“Yes.”
The street that Jung Yu-shin and his party were currently on was clearly different from the gloomy shantytown deep in the outskirts.
The buildings were getting taller and taller, and the lively music, laughter, and shouting were also getting louder.
Jung Yu-shin looked around.
A harpy was flying in the sky, throwing out flyers.
A female rabbit, Suin, was wearing masculine clothes and soliciting customers from passersby.
Elves with blank eyes and smoking something were scattered in the alleys between the tall buildings.
Jung Yu-shin /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ clicked his tongue.
‘The red-light district I saw at the entrance was just a taste.’
Another street deep in this eastern district was filled with souls seeking pleasure.
The strange thing was.
No one approached him.
A crocodile man who was soliciting customers approached, but when he saw Jung Yu-shin, he quickly changed direction and grabbed another customer.
Another orc with long molars approached him from the front, making a noise, and when he saw Jung Yu-shin, he was startled and dodged to the side.
Jung Yu-shin frowned.
He hadn’t been treated this badly in the southern street or even at the eastern checkpoint.
“Why don’t they only stick to us? It’s strange.”
“Well. Isn’t Ska-nim Barbaro?”
The snarling nose scratched his head and answered.
“···I have nothing to say, but isn’t this too much? It’s like treating him like a plague.”
“I’ve been through a lot. You need to understand with a ‘broad’ mind.”
“I understand.”
It wasn’t me who widened their hole. Isn’t it like avoiding innocent people after being slapped by a strict person?
‘Tsk. Let’s understand. You might be surprised to see a pot lid that looks like it’s grown up. Is the red-light district a little close from here?’
Jung Yu-shin clicked his tongue inwardly and passed the crowd that was gradually parting.
After walking a little further, an empty lot came into view.
A huge tent with colorful colors came into view.
It was easily big enough to fit hundreds of people.
“There it is.”
Gallaheim pointed with his finger.
“It’s just like a circus.”
“Circus performances are mainly done by the Shadow Clowns Clan.”
There was a long line at the entrance to the tent. It didn’t matter if it was a monster, human, or animal.
“Dalchangko, I’ve been there once?”
“I’ve been there two or three times.”
“How is it?”
Dulchangko tilted his head.
“If you’re talking about a circus show, I think it’s worth seeing.”
“Let’s go.”
The three men waited in a long line.
The line quickly shortened, and soon it was Jung Yu-shin’s turn.
“One silver coin.”
A human man with white makeup on his face said.
Jung Yu-shin took three silver coins out of his pocket and handed them over.
The man took the money and handed over a bracelet.
“This is a bracelet that confirms you are a customer. Please don’t lose it.”
“Yes.”
As soon as he entered the tent, he felt the heat.
The show hadn’t even started yet, but the excitement of the people was palpable.
Finding a seat wasn’t hard. When Jung Yu-shin approached, he was startled and gave up.
“Uh... this seat?”
“Huh...! Sit down!”
The pig Suin sitting in front of him suddenly got up from his seat and ran away.
“Huh, really. This is too much?”
Jung Yushin muttered while looking at the pig Suin’s squirming butt.
“...”
Jung Yushin crossed his arms and looked at the empty stage.
He had come for work, but he had high hopes.
At that moment.
A pot-bellied human walked onto the stage. He had white makeup on his face and was wearing a funny hat.
“Ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for coming today!”
The man took off his hat and bowed his head deeply.
“Waaaaaaaaaah!!!”
“Show me quickly!!!”
The audience screamed in unison.
Jung Yushin looked around at the people without uncrossing his arms.
Gallaheim and Snood, sitting on either side of him, were pretending not to be, but were excited.
“Okay! First up is... Slime Top!”
A lion with powdered face walked out. About 10 slimes followed him.
‘What is this?’
The slimes slowly climbed up the high stairs.
The lion Suin put his feet on the unicycle and started riding.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo!!!
One of the performance staff members beat the drum. The tension was rising.
And then.
The slime jumped off the high pole.
Hug.
The lion Suin skillfully caught the slime while riding the unicycle.
“Wow!!!”
People cheered.
The slimes fell from the high pole one by one.
The amazing thing was that they changed into various shapes as they fell.
Star. Heart. Dragon. Pig. Cow.
They were all different shapes. Judging from the details, it wasn’t something he had done only once or twice.
“Wow!!! Amazing!!!”
The slime stuck to the lion's head and arms, changing into different shapes.
The cheers grew louder as one slime covered the lion's eyes.
The last one fell into the shape of a teddy bear.
Clang.
The last one landed safely on the lion's head.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaa!!!"
Clap clap clap clap!!!
People stood up from their seats and clapped and whistled enthusiastically.
Jung Yu-shin also jumped up from his seat and clapped his hands.
"A teddy bear is coming out of here?! Wow! This house is really going to suck!!!"
I felt the gaze of Dulchangko and Gallaheim and sat back down.
The performance continued after that.
A hunchbacked goblin and a beautiful elf swinging precariously in the air.
A blue-skinned troll wizard came out on stage and manipulated flames to create all sorts of illusions.
Shaped flames flew freely over the audience.
A dragon, a wyvern, an eagle, a sparrow, a swallow.
Jeong Yu-shin stared blankly at the illusions floating in the air.
The others were the same.
When the troll wizard swung his staff once, the flapping flames disappeared.
“Wow!!!”
As the troll wizard's performance ended, thunderous applause filled the circus arena.
As time passed, the cheers and applause of the audience grew louder.
Finally.
Axe throwing was left.
The performance staff set up a thick board on the stage.
An orc with his eyes covered with a cloth stood on the stage holding an axe.
A fat man came out in front of the stage and opened his mouth.
“Finally, the fearsome warrior! The orc's axe throwing performance is left!!! Just a touch will split it in half!!! Who will be the courageous challenger?! Right here!!!”
Dudududududu.
The sound of drums rang through the concert hall.
The fat man pointed to a place.
Jung Yu-shin jumped up from his seat again.
“Rin?!”
A white mouse wearing a small hat stood proudly on two feet.
“Click!”
“Waaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”
The audience's cheers echoed through the circus.
'Why are you out there?!'
Jung Yu-shin's mouth fell open.
