“…Jjikjjiki?”
My head hurts.

I barely regained my senses at the sound of Jjikjjiki’s voice echoing in my head. Grabbing my throbbing temples, I lifted my head to find him staring at me intently.
He looked somewhat pouty. I wasn’t sure why he was sulking, but it had been a while since I’d seen that expression—it was cute… No, now wasn’t the time for that.

“Jjikjjiki.”
Even though I spoke softly, my voice seemed to resonate loudly in the silent surroundings. There were surely other Awakened trapped here as well, and I couldn’t afford for anyone to see me talking to Jjikjjiki. I mumbled as quietly as possible.

“How long has it been since I collapsed?”
“Not long-jji. After you collapsed, the ones nearby picked you up and carried you onto the ship-jji. I wanted to tear their hands off, but I held back-jji.”

“Good job.”
“As soon as they left, I woke you up-jji. Are you okay-jji? Are you hurt anywhere-jji?”

“I’m fine. Where are we?”
“Below deck-jji. It’s a big ship in front of the inn-jji.”

As expected, the Awakened were on the ship. I had anticipated this.
“Jjikjjiki, first…”

“Wait, Soul-jji. I’ll get that collar off first-jji.”
Jjikjjiki scurried close to my neck. I felt the soft touch of his fur, followed by a small clicking sound as the restraint around my neck snapped in half.

No wonder even lifting my head had been difficult—it was because of that thing.
“Whew. I can finally breathe again.”

As I sat up, countless eyes pierced through the darkness, locking onto me. To the others trapped here, it must’ve looked like I had mumbled to myself, made some strange squeaking noises, and suddenly freed myself.
I felt a twinge of guilt for not explaining things to them, but now wasn’t the time. My priority was escaping this place. First, I needed to remove their restraints…

‘…Why are there so many Awakened?’
Dozens of dark shapes sat huddled in front of me. The sheer number of them far exceeded my expectations, leaving me momentarily frozen.

There were too many for all of them to be newly Awakened from the Beginner Village. Could even the experienced Awakened, those leading the charge in quests, have been captured? If the slave traders were strong enough to manage that… could Jjikjjiki handle them?
“Soul-jji?”

Jjikjjiki tugged at my sleeve, snapping me out of my thoughts.
‘Calm down.’

The cramped and dark space had momentarily thrown me into a panic. Taking a deep breath, I hugged Jjikjjiki tightly. The feel of his fluffy fur against my cheek quickly steadied my breathing.
“Are you okay-jji?”

I wanted to reassure him and stroke his fur, but with so many eyes watching, I had to be cautious. Keeping Jjikjjiki in my arms, I slowly surveyed the room until my eyes adjusted to the darkness.
‘Not just Awakened, huh.’

Gradually, I began to piece things together. Among those captured were residents of the Tutorial Field—likely beastmen. Perhaps even other races.
My original plan had been to inform the Awakened that I was here on a rescue quest and to start freeing their restraints. That way, they’d trust me and follow my lead without question.

But with other races in the mix, things were different. These non-humans were probably already wary of humans. If I suddenly appeared and started spouting incomprehensible terms like “Awakened” or “Korean,” they’d grow even more suspicious. Worst case, they might resist or cause a commotion, making our escape impossible.
‘If even one person stirs up trouble, it’ll be difficult to get out.’

Bringing Jjikjjiki close to my face, I whispered.
“A kiss-jji?”

Jjikjjiki seized the opportunity to nuzzle my lips with his nose. I gently pushed him back and murmured.
“Jjikjjiki, can you tell who the beastmen are in here?”

“I can-jji.”
“And you can communicate with them, right? Can you convince the beastmen to stay calm and wait while I work on freeing everyone?”

“I’ll try-jji.”
Jjikjjiki gave my lips three more quick nudges before darting off.

“Keep quiet and stay still, or you won’t get rescued-jji!”
Hmm. I should’ve been more specific with my instructions.

“He’s one of us! Looks like he’s here to rescue us.”
“We’re saved! We can finally go home.”
Luckily, the beastmen didn’t seem to mind Jjikjjiki’s curt tone.

“Please save us too!”

“We’ll reward you handsomely if you do.”
Jjikjjiki approached the nearest beastman and broke the collar around their neck.

Bang!
“Aah!”

“What was that?”
“Explosion?!”

A small explosion erupted from the collar being torn off, throwing the room into chaos.
‘What the heck? These aren’t supposed to explode.’

When Jjikjjiki freed me earlier, nothing had happened. I assumed the same would apply to the others. Was mine made of a different material? That didn’t seem to be the case.
‘Jjikjjiki… You knew how to disable the explosion but didn’t do it on purpose, didn’t you?’

Now that I thought about it, freeing my collar had taken him longer than usual. He must’ve been carefully avoiding triggering the explosion.
“Jjikjjiki, make sure the rest don’t explode, okay?”

“I don’t want to care about anyone but you-jji.”
“If it’s too noisy, the enemies might come. Or the ship might catch fire. Please.”
Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator
“Okay-jji!”
Puffing out his furry chest confidently, Jjikjjiki scurried around, deftly breaking collars without further explosions. Beastmen, now free, began standing up one by one, and the other races started murmuring. Even the Awakened, who had seemed resigned, began stirring.

“Everyone, please stay calm and wait. If we cause a commotion, the enemies might come down. I promise we’ll all escape together. Once your collar is off, gather over here.”
Jjikjjiki’s efficient work and my instructions in fluent Korean seemed to reassure both the Tutorial Field NPCs and the Awakened.

“Jjikjjiki, go upstairs and lure the enemies to the other side—”
Before I could finish giving directions, I noticed Jjikjjiki had gone silent. Normally, he’d be bouncing back for praise, demanding a kiss or a pat, but now he wasn’t even squeaking.

“Jjikjjiki?”
I turned to find him staring at something in the corner of the room.

‘A cage?’
As I moved closer, a small cage hidden in the shadows came into view. Inside were small beastmen in their animal forms, trembling. Jjikjjiki’s gaze was fixed on one of them—a particularly tiny mouse.

“A… mouse-jji.”
The little creature, barely the size of two thumbs, was quivering among the other animals.

“It’s really a mouse.”
Though both were rodents, Jjikjjiki was a rat, while the mouse was a different species. Still, Jjikjjiki seemed unusually fixated on it. He pressed his nose close to the bars, as if trying to get inside.

“Do you know it?”
A stupid question. Jjikjjiki was territorial, so the idea of him knowing another rodent was laughable. The real reason for his interest was obvious.

‘He’s worried I might like the new mouse more than him.’
Cute, but not the time.

“Let’s get them out and escape first, okay?”
“…Okay-jji.”

Jjikjjiki tore the cage open, and the animals spilled out.
“Everyone, the stairs are narrow. Please hold the smaller beastmen instead of letting them walk.”

“Understood!”
“I’ll carry these ones.”

Beastmen began carefully cradling the smaller animals. As I bent down to pick one up, Jjikjjiki suddenly patted the spot next to him on my shoulder.
“Come here-jji!”

“Huh?”
Amazingly, the tiny mouse climbed up my arm and perched on my shoulder next to Jjikjjiki.

“Move to the inside-jji.”
For someone who usually hated sharing his perch, Jjikjjiki was now making room. The absurdity of it left me speechless.

‘…What’s happening?’
Normally, he’d throw a fit if I even touched another rodent. But now? Maybe it was for the best.

The little mouse seemed awed by Jjikjjiki’s size and demeanor.
“Where are you from?”

“Soul’s house-jji.”
“What’s that?”

“Don’t worry about it-jji.”
The mouse kept chattering as we moved toward the stairs, using my shoulder as their personal bench. Even with Jjikjjiki’s gruff responses, the little one didn’t stop talking.

Was he nervous? Maybe he was shy.

It wasn’t just about the two rodents using my shoulder as a dating spot. Something about it felt strangely irritating.
“Now what? Shall we head upstairs?”

“Ah, yes. One moment.”
Distracted by Jjikjjiki’s first “date,” I’d momentarily forgotten we were in the middle of an escape. Picking him up, I placed him at the base of the stairs leading to the deck.

“Jjik.”
He looked back at the mouse and gave me a disgruntled glare. Was being apart for a moment that unbearable? I ruffled his fur as a silent apology, flattening it against his head.

“Sorry for interrupting your date, but let’s focus. Kang Jjikjjiki.”
“Date-jji?”

He flicked his tail, seeming flustered but pleased by the word. Flattened fur or not, he was clearly enjoying himself.
“Once we’re on deck, take out all the humans quietly. Letting one or two escape is fine, but we can’t let the ship set sail. If it does, escaping in the open sea will be much harder.”

“Got it-jji. Humans—quietly. No sailing-jji.”
Jjikjjiki bolted up the stairs, glancing back at the mouse several times before disappearing.

“…….”
Kang Jjikjjiki, you traitor.
