Chapter: 1445
�Yes!�
The workers answered and transferred all of the wooden boxes from the cart to the ship.
Balancing while carrying a box was not easy to do since the riverside was all muddy. The workers were barely able to keep their balance as they walked.
Pyo-wol also staggered as he carried his own box.�
As Pyo-wol approached the ship, he heard the voices of the men talking.
�He�s amazing, too. I can�t believe he�s making a Demon Transformation Pill1 in the Snow Sword Manor.�
�Isn�t he the kind of person who uses whatever means available?�
�That�s true! That�s probably how he managed to reach such a position at a young age.�
They would never have imagined that Pyo-wol would be listening to their conversation. This is because there is quite a distance between them and the workers, and they were whispering to themselves.
At that time, the captain shouted,�
�Don�t blabber around! We�ll leave as soon as cargo is loaded, so get ready!�
�At your command!�
The captain appeared to be in his mid-to-late fifties. He had a goatee on his chin, and his eyes were grim enough to give anyone goosebumps just by looking at them.
Workers whimpered as they walked to and from the ship and the cart.
Thud!
Finally, the last box was loaded onto the ship.
�Phew!�
�I�m dying�!�
The workers wiped the sweat off their foreheads and then held their backs with their hands. Loading and carrying those boxes onto the ship was several times harder than carrying it around on a flat surface, so they failed to see Ji Gang-pyo and the captain exchanging glances.
�Everyone has worked hard.�
Ji Gang-pyo smiled as he approached the workers.
�Oh, it�s nothing. It�s something that we have to do.�
The oldest among the workers said as he bowed his head with a humble expression.�
�Hm, since everyone worked hard, I should give you all a reward.�
Cwaeac!
Ji Gang-pyo suddenly swung his sword and cut the old worker at once.
�Keuk! W-Why?�
The worker, who suddenly had his head decapitated, looked at Ji Gang-pyo with an expression of disbelief.
Ji Gang-pyo laughed with his sword slung over his shoulder.
�Are you asking why I have to do this? It�s because I don�t want to leave any witnesses.� JrNovels.com
