Chapter 24 — Dropped into Murim with an Instant Kill Skill

Chapter 24

The chapter opens with the backstory of Eun-yeong, an assassin left abandoned after her mission failed; she survived three years of starvation and silence, enduring hunger without breaking her code to avoid leaving trails. The narrative shifts to Cheongun Pavilion, where Yeon So-wol collapses from exhaustion on the streets of Shinheung County. He is rescued by the courtesan Cho-ran, who feeds him Cheongun Pavilion’s specialty, Chilled Tea-Leaf Chicken. Yeon So-wol, dazed by his pursuit of the Black Path and Shinheung Three Dogs, listens attentively as the courtesans condemn the cruelty of Black Path martial artists, comparing them unfavorably to the principled Windflow Martial Academy. Moved by their stories of exploitation and child abduction, Yeon So-wol offers genuine assistance, contrasting his respectful listening with the condescending offers of help he usually receives. The courtesans are surprised by his empathy, sharing personal tragedies rooted in debt and slavery. When an older man demands Eun-yeong work, she asserts her willingness to do the job, prompting a scolding from Cho-ran that hides a knowing smile. Recognizing Yeon So-wol’s lack of stealth skills, Eun-yeong offers to teach him martial arts focused on silent movement and awareness. After Cho-ran provides intelligence about the Governor-General’s strict travel ban and the secret collusion between Golden Powder Gang leader Seo Mu-ryang and Heavenly Road Mountain, Yeon So-wol eagerly accepts Eun-yeong’s training offer, bowing deeply to begin his instruction.
