Have a Meal Before You Go

< Excuse me. >

Eugene is working late again today.

Yesterday was late, yesterday was late. Maybe tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the night after next year, and the next year after.

Sometimes I think it's not so good that the development of healing techniques. When I'm tired, I collapse, and I'm exhausted, and I have to go to the hospital, but I still can't.

A glass of milk in the morning.

Two bananas and a cup of coffee for lunch.

I don't think about dinner, I just drink elongated coffee.

“That's a lot of work. ”

Talking to myself with my tongue clenched, has become a habit. He is an old man with a lot of fanfare now. An old man with long, tightly tied white hair and a hot beard.

He had a lot of paperwork to review, and he would be the last commander in the war.

War.

I'm sick of this war, but it's become inevitable.

He sat down and put three coffees in a cup of coffee. Then, I poured the water into the coffee pot and turned my neck back as far as I could. The whole body cries out.

“....... ”

And...

By the time he turned his head back.

There was a stranger sitting on the couch.

“...... Ms. Grant? ”

Eugene nodded his head. He was, in fact, Cheolho. Cheolho's restaurant is frequent, and I thought it was quite friendly. He was a young man who looked young, but felt very deep inside and sometimes felt like a friend.

“Hello."

Chulho smiles and opens his mouth.

“Oh, yes, hello. When did you get in? ”

“Just now.”

“...... I didn't hear anything. ”

Cheolho just keeps smiling without answering.

“......? ”

Eugene realized that everything was strange just then. It was as if it were in a state of zero gravity. The world is not this quiet. the sound of wind blowing, the sound of cars moving in the world out there, sometimes people's voices.

The world was strangely quiet and terrifying when all that white noise disappeared.

Chulho got up from his seat.

“I have something to tell you. ”

“To me......? ”

Eugene narrowed his eyes. Then I pressed the emergency bell installed under my desk.

Why isn't it pressing? ’

I tried to hold on to it, but it's useless. He is an anaesthetic, so he is incapable of coping with this direct crisis.

“You were looking for an unknown power. ”

The question of Chulho is the heart. Eugene looks at Cheolho, giving up pressing the bell.

“...... ”

Cheolho's eyes were deeper than ever. Looking at it, there was a magical force that seemed to be drawn. And the horse had a weight. It was engraved on my brain.

Eugene nods, silent.

I could tell.

No matter what Chulho said, I just instinctively realized.

“Were you…… an unknown force……? ”

Cheolho nods.

Tuck!

Eugene misses the pen he was holding.

“You…… Unknown Power……! ”

He mutters the elongated words as if he couldn't believe it. Cheolho regained his bitter face.

“I hoped this day would never come, but it can't be that bad now that it's already here. ”

“Ooh, ooh, we're not hostile…… I knew it. ”

He said with difficulty. Cheolho nods again.

Suddenly, I remembered what Lex used to say.

- It's a short time for us to say it was before. In your time, my clan and all the tribes of Espan owed a great debt to one human being. He had a lot of pride in his will. That's regrettable. We had to grow up when we got older, but we didn't.

Human.

He could not believe that the hero of all those who saved the continent of Espan was a man.

So, he had to have multiple headaches. Perhaps the dragons were determined and greedy to wield the city, and had to consider more comprehensive and deeper parts of the concern.

- The man who owes me that much lives on this earth. So, this time, we help.

But...

Are you sure you're right?

“Were you…… the ‘human’ that Ecmund Rex mentioned……? ”

Cheolho nodded his head again.

“Probably, yes. ”

“Haha......”

It reminds me of a conversation I had in the past.

It was around the time I spoke with Cora Fox at the Silver Fox Merchants Guild.

- May I ask why you are so... supportive on our level?

In answer to Eugene's question, Cora Fox smiled and answered.

- I like it there, too.

- You like him?

- The most respected man in the world said he liked it.

- Yes?

- If he says he likes it, I like it.

Eugene stands up, and reflects on elongation. Chulho looks at him and lowers his head slightly.

“Bourne, you've been excusing me. ”

“...... Excuse me......”

What do you mean, "Excuse me"?

Chulho saved countless urban crises. When an unknown force appeared, it was always a crisis.

When he discovered the quarry, he rescued Magchang and Tim Zenkark, who were about to be killed by a swarm of Big Pigs and King Pins.

You rescued the town from the anomalies that appeared with the Borat Fog, and from the unknown monsters.

When the First Demon King arrived, he rescued the city from the corrupt Spirit Legions.

How can that be offensive?

Chulho opened his mouth again.

“And..."

“Him, and? ”

“In the future, excuse me one more time. ”

“...... ”

Eugene knew right away what Chulho was saying. He was thinking of fighting Brahma. Eugene swallowed the saliva, and refuted it.

“I, who I am! ”

Look at Chulho and join the horses.

“May I ask why you hid your identity and helped us……? ”

Cheolho nods.

“I decided to live a normal life. ”

“Ordinary......”

“I know it's harder than I thought. ”

“Normally......”

“Perhaps, when this is all over, we can finally go back to our normal lives. ”

Chulho's words contained bones.

Eugene was the head of the Association. Judging a situation like that is not difficult.

“Vee, you want secrets. ”

“Yes.”

Somehow, he thought he could understand. So, I nodded slowly and unknowingly.

“I'll keep it... strict. ”

“Thank you.”

Chulho bowed his back deeply and thanked me. Eugene bowed his head as well.

He turns around, and asks urgently.

“Poetry, Poetry, Citizens! ”

Chulho glances back.

“Citizens are all I have. Well, we are! We'll do anything to protect our citizens! Sell your soul to the devil if you have to! ”

Eugene was a good man.

It was not easy for a group to be vigorously healthy with one undamaged essence.

Thirty years after the foundation was founded, the organization that was supposed to have been satisfied with 35 years had not had a speck of dirt on it. This was the first uncorrupted group in four years that would have changed even if the mountain had changed.

“You're a good person. ”

“...... ”

“You don't have to sell your soul to the devil. ”

Chulho grinned quietly.

“Any demons worth killing, they'll die by my hand. ”

Creepy!

Whoa!

When it was creepy. The silence of the world is gone.

Pa 'ang -

Down there, you hear a car. White noise entered the void again.

rubble

Eugene realized that he was trembling all over himself. On my back, cold sweat comes down.

“Ha, ha, ha. ”

He comes back to the throbbing seat, smiling without even knowing it. Coffee was still warm. He grabbed a cup of coffee and ruled the beating heart.

.

Chulho returned home and did his kindergarten homework with Tangerine. Tangerine's kindergarten homework, additionally. Tangerine is good for one-digit addition, but weak for two-digit addition. When I had a moment, I laughed and laughed as I watched him try to count with his fingers and toes.

As time goes on, if you hear chattering from the distant alleyways, they'll come back.

“Oh, I'm home, Cheolho. ”

“Here comes the body. ”

It was the night before midnight that the two tribes came to the meal house.

Cheolho looked at the newspaper and turned his eyes to them. Today is another day.

“How are you doing? ”

“Ugh......”

“This body was 500 meters taller than that lizard today. ”

“What? That's bullshit! ”

Seeing you bicker and bicker, it looks like you still have your strength.

Echo and Khan stoop to find out how annoying it is to argue. They were struggling to conquer the Tower of God.

“You have to eat. Today's menu......”

When Chulho tried to say something, the two factions were already snoring and deep asleep.

I put my hands on their backs. The magical power in the body was extremely neat.

Already, they've reached their limit. Enlightenment is good, struggle is good, but by this point, I've done all I can. Now, just one more step and we can move on to the next world.

In that case.

Tomorrow, I'm gonna have to hook up the heist.

The two tribes who were sleeping comfortably felt a chill in their dreams.

* * *

The two of them fell asleep at dawn.

Drum-

The door to the diner was opened.

When Cheolho cleared his eyes, Eugene stood up. He looks like he's on his way home from work, wearing Mute glasses.

Chulho stared at him. Eugene stared at him. Soon, Chulho smiled and greeted him.

“Welcome. ”

“...... Hello. ”

He sat at the table, in his usual manner, as always. And I asked in a slightly awkward, but bold tone.

“What's on the menu today? ”

“Today, I did a little chicken ribs. Chickens are so well-fed these days, they're cheap. ”

“Please...... do me a favor. ”

At Eugene's words, Chulho nods.

“Yes.”

Chulho quickly baked a plate of chicken ribs and sprinkled sesame seeds.

Eugene slowly started eating. By the time the meal was over and the dishes were clean. He asked.

“You used to live over here. ”

“Until about 35 years ago. ”

“You and I...... must be in the same class. ”

“...... ”

Cheolho smiled and replied.

“I am your friend, too. ”

He was now a Gangbuk magician who retired and went on tour.

Eugene nods slowly.

“Thank you for your meal. ”

“Goodbye. ”

“And……"

Eugene swallowed a saliva. Then he bowed his head.

“Thank you.”

After paying for the food, he slowly walked out of the store.

Kwa-goog-boom!

It was raining a lot these days. The clouds start to crease in the sky, and it starts to rain.
