Have a Meal Before You Go

Cora Fox, merchant of the Fox Merchants Guild, looks up at the sky.

Suddenly, the sun was setting and the moon was rising. The moon is slowly setting.

The world turned to dawn.

When I closed my eyes, I felt like I was back in the old days. A man named Maze Lycas was a turning point in her life.

Maze Lycas.

When he saved the world and returned to the Empire, the emperor assumed the position of Duke.

His status as Grand Duke was at the very bottom of the emperor's rank, and truly immeasurable power. In the exhibition, in some cases, the place where emperors are delegated is truly the best!

However, Maze Lycas disappeared the day after he took the position.

It was something she couldn't understand at the time.

But, now.

She knows what life he wanted.

He just wanted to live a normal life. to live an ordinary and peaceful life that flows safely every day.

When I look back on that day, I have a life where I can just smile quietly.

She thought, maybe a man named Maze Lycas might know why he didn't visit the Emperor.

The sun rises slowly.

A man like that was making equipment. He seemed to be on the verge of a war with someone.

A whole day passed by. She looks at the wagon-loaded cargo. Through contacts scattered throughout the Empire, I retrieved some of the goods he ordered.

Even she couldn't get all that stuff. They were rare and priceless.

Pot!

At some point.

A hook appears in front of her.

“Maze Lycas! ”

“I'm sorry, I'm too late. ”

Cheolho was on his way back from work to find the Temple of Kal Rampage, located on the continent of Espan.

Cora Fox grips Iron Tiger's hand tightly.

“Are you leaving now? ”

“Yes, it's time to go. ”

“Can I see you again? ”

Cheolho smiled.

“Someday, perhaps. ”

Tears welled up in Cora Fox's eyes.

“I couldn't save them all. Less than half of what you said. I guess that's all I am. ”

“No. That's enough. Thank you so much."

Cora Fox looks at the helmet without speaking for a moment and wipes her tears.

“Are you going to fight someone? ”

“...... ”

Chulho nods quietly.

“You'll be strong, won't you? Because you're so prepared. ”

“Maybe. More than I thought. ”

She couldn't even imagine. Chulho put the things that had been prepared in the wagon in the sub-space. Then, I put my hands on Cora's head.

“Maybe I'll see you again next time. Maybe in another world. ”

“....... a place called Earth. ”

“When you get there, I'll find you. ”

Chulho strokes her sniffing head.

“And I'll treat you to a delicious meal. Take care of yourself and thank you for living like this. ”

“....... ”

She lowers her head.

Cheolho was no longer there.

Now, Chulho had one last place to look.

.

Shhh! Shhh!

Echo looked left and right.

It snows everywhere. There was literally a huge snow field. The snow falling from the sky and the cold of the cold were literally the lowest temperatures to freeze the lungs every time I took a breath.

Even Echo thought it was freezing, so it must have been freezing to death in here.

Cheolho was standing in the middle of the snow, just watching his side.

Over there.

Somewhere in the snow, Aramir Lanterro sleeps. Then he brought her to his subspace. She's still asleep in the subspace.

Perhaps, a few hundred years' sleep.

“....... ”

Cheolho hesitated.

Several times. Several times.

What would be a good choice. Best guess, that idea was meaningless in the beginning.

Probably.

Aramir Lantero may not have loved Chulho.

Maybe she has compassion for Chulho.

He may have had pity on the warriors of Yi Kyae who had been forced into an unwanted fight.

Reach out to that side.

Over there--

- Live your life, Maze Lycas.

Her voice seems to be ringing.

One day, the sun was rising. Slowly, but the world of this glacier belt is constantly swirling with blizzards.

“Hey.”

Echo opens his mouth as he writhes.

“Yes."

“We have to go. The doors will be closing soon. ”

Chulho closed his eyes quietly. And then, there it was.

“Let's go.”

And I turned around. Frozen, a ring that escapes the subspace and absorbs cold from there, is rushing towards Kasim filled with cold.

* * *

“What's all that? ”

Cheolho asked.

Khan was carrying a load of bots on his back. Rex smiles gladly from behind.

“I told you to pick something up from this dragon's rare, and you're sweeping it away! Hahahaha!”

Khan smiles widely, looking at his helmet.

“Do you see, Cheolho? Hahaha! There are some golden cornerstones here! And some Rough Runes! My father and mother are the best! ”

It was like a married daughter came to her mother and swept away all her dishes.

Cheolho scratches his glabella and asks Lex.

“Are you sure about this……? ”

“Hahaha! I'm fine! If my son asks for it, I give him everything! Hahahahahaha!”

It's an artificial smile. You see the drops of sweat falling from Lex's temple.

Next to him, Rona pokes Rex in the side.

“Smile, my love. Naturally.”

“Hahahaha!”

She was holding a tangerine tightly. My eyes were filled with hesitation.

She picked up a tangerine and aligned her eyes with the height of her eyes.

“Sweetheart, be well? ”

I felt strong that I didn't want to part. She was the one who raised him, but she was the one who gave birth to him. The maternal love was so strong that I only saw it for a day, but it seemed good for a few years.

“Woof!”

Tangerine kissed her cheek, whether she knew it or not.

She walked slowly with an unwilling face and handed the tangerines over to Cheolho.

Chulho lowers his head lightly at her.

Looking up at the sky, the sun suddenly came to my mind.

There was really no time.

“I have to go. ”

“Let's go…… ”

Khan walks up to Cheolho, runs back to his parents and hugs them.

Lex hugged Kahn and told Chulho.

“Maze Lycas! ”

“Yes."

“Maybe we'll see each other again soon. ”

“Hmm?"

“I'm going to see the Emperor now. I'm going to hear what he's been proposing for the last 10 years. ”

Cheolho nods.

“Yes."

“When we get there, get us something to eat. I can't eat what this guy made. ”

Khan pounces.

Chulho nods, smiling softly.

“Yeah, whatever. ”

After saying goodbye, Chulho and Cane Tangerine started running quickly.

You leave the Dragon Mountain in an instant.

And so far away, even from the dragon's sight. He joins Echo, who has been staying far away, and disappears faster into space travel.

“Hahaha! That guy! Honey, the compartment is so big! It's only been a few years, but you'll grow more if you come back soon! ”

Lex deliberately smiles and talks to Rona.

“I see.”

“Hahaha! My daughter looks just like you, too. Hahaha!”

Rex turns around and returns to his palace with a whirlwind. Rona turns around and looks back at her husband. My husband walked away smiling, but he was stealing the elongated eye area.

.

When I returned to Earth, it was also a bright daylight.

Phage job-

When you return to this place, the gate slowly shrinks and disappears.

I managed to close my time again.

“Oh, he's gone. ”

The Khan looked at the place as if it were a waste. Tangerine fell asleep again in the arms of Cheolho.

Chulho tapped Echo on the shoulder.

“Echo. Well done. ”

“Hmph, this body is usually lonely. Not in the Mahjong, not in Espan. I don't welcome this body anywhere. It's okay because it's familiar. ”

Echo replied as if it was nothing. It looked pretty lonely.

Cheolho once again patted the back of that echo.

“Let's go home. ”

“This body is the best in the house. ”

“Yes, yes. Thanks to you, I'm back in time. ”

Cheolho gently asked for Echo.

* * *

After returning to the rice restaurant, Chulho left his sleeping cans and tangerines in his room and headed to the kitchen.

Echo doesn't like fried things any more than he thinks. Instead, what he liked was a big, juicy, well-baked steak.

Chulho pulled the ingredients from the sub-space while he was busy traveling around Espan continent.

On the continent of Espan, there are three humble meals.

First, silver sturgeon eggs that appear in the Southeast Dead Sea. It is very similar and different from being called caviar on Earth.

Silver sturgeon eggs melt in your mouth like butter. Also, there was a fine, salty, mouth-watering accusation. There was sweetness and a little bit of savoury, so I was able to enjoy various flavors evenly in one mouth.

The second is the unicorn's backdrop of appearing on the central plains. Unicorns, in fact, are very rare and sometimes found with only corpses, and they are widely known not to decompose after a long time.

The unicorn's backbone is renowned for its meat-flavored edges. Even Cheolho had tasted it once, but it was literally a flood of juice. The juice tastes very clean meat without any crumbs, but the meat flavor is very strong and has a long finish.

The third is Rom Saiser. Rom Saiser was a red wine worth a few acres. We will immerse Rom, the fruit of the sky, in an area called Saiser.

Rom Saiser was a rare item to be released in a decade or two.

Red wine that can only be drafted once it is hit by the Huang manufacturing tea bean.

Cheolho was able to hold them together.

And I'm going to share it with Echo.

First, Chulho cut off the unicorn backhoe as much as he did, and began cooking.

Medium rare with an unlimited concentration of baking. This is how a unicorn grills its thorns.

Place 15 silver sturgeon eggs on a baked backbone.

Last but not least, I carefully poured it into the cup.

Echo's face brightens. The meat on your plate doesn't seem to be ordinary.

Cheolho sat across from Echo, teasing the knife and fork, and sliced the meat.

If you use Silver Sturgeon eggs, the additional sauce is a waste.

Cut one point and eat it with one egg.

Echo takes a bite and smiles. Cheolho gave Echo a glass of wine. Echo met the Cup as well.

A sip.

I also felt a rich aroma and complex flavor like the words "low and tasty."

Chulho took another sip and opened his mouth, tasting the taste.

“Echo.”

“Why.”

“A person has to take responsibility. ”

“....... ”

“Intentionally or unintentionally. Mistake or no mistake, there's nothing I can do about what happened. ”

Chulho added, gazing quietly at Echo.

“Responsibility starts with thinking from the other person's perspective. The horsemen, including the Demon Lord, landed on the continent of Espan for a moment, in an unpredictable range of events. ”

“....... ”

“The battle instincts of the Horses and their ethnic traits of Weakness must be quite natural for the Horsemen. But it was a disaster in the human world. ”

“....... ”

“That's why you have to endure their anger and hatred. I had no choice, it happened. ”

“....... ”

Chulho added, smiling bitterly.

“Of course, I feel skeptical about you living as a Horseman. ”

Echo was quite a grim face.

“Yes."

“So am I. Perhaps there are many who despise me. Because I've killed countless people, too. Whether it was intentional, unintentional, or inevitable, I had to protect someone, it's a different story than that. So, we have to live with that. ”

The cup struck again.

Echo and Chulho finished their meal quietly.

“Do you resent this body? ”

Suddenly, Echo asked.

Cheolho nods lightly.

“Yes."

“....... ”

“I was. Just like you were. ”

Lunch was soon overdue. The sound of the cat disappears momentarily outside the door, and you hear the children running around and scattering.

Pretty much.

It was a quiet, busy afternoon.

“...... Right. ”

Echo stands on his feet, muttering.

Chulho waves his hand.

“I'll do the dishes today. Go back to sleep. Well done.”

“Got it.”

Echo walks into the room volatile. Chulho sat still and poured another glass of wine.

Deep afternoon, when odd, odd, and thoughts intersected.

< As you did. > End
