Have a Meal Before You Go

< I'll leave you to it. >

Khan and Echo slumber dead. Cheolho glanced at them and smiled. I know the reason for this deep sleep.

Cheolho stares at the Hellkeeper and flinches.

“Thank you.”

“In a world that's going to rise anyway, I just wrote a little bit of bylaws. ”

They will rise one step at a time. They're clearly picking a class right now.

I like something.

You don't need to hold these guidelines. They knew very well about themselves. That's why I fought so much.

What you get when you lose against a strong man is what you lack. The flaws are probably engraved in their heads, so the class choice will be easy for them to understand.

Cheolho gave the coffee cup to the Hellkeizer.

The Hellkeizer takes the coffee cup.

.

The bear looked at the tangerines, kneeling down. It was Echo and his brother who were sleeping coolly in the room. Tangerine shook him.

“Oh, Dad. ”

Khan is just in a deep, restless sleep.

“Oh, Dad. ”

I'll try again, but it won't work. Tangerine slapped his brother on the cheek with a crooked head. Soon, I turned my eyes to Echo.

“Ako! ”

The same goes for Echo.

Tangerine looked at the two xenogens and found herself in a plain bed. Put your hands together in your belly button and lie on the hot floor of your room. He also cut a fluffy bird feather pillow with duck on it and covered it with a thin but very soft tangerine duvet.

Cole, even when you wake up to sigh, you and Echo are still asleep.

Tangerines quickly turned pale and fell on my brother's boat. Look at the ear as it is. You hear a beating heart.

The same is true of Echo. Tangerines were rolling around for a long time.

“We need to know that the Kyuri are returning to the bird statue. ”

Tangerine thought that for her brother and Echo to stay awake all day, she should tell them the world.

Tangerine ran out of the house.

And here and there.

Nowadays, there are Awakenings everywhere in the city. Here and there, in a spacious fashion, the Awakeners stood up and were busy giving something.

Tangerine walked to an old man who had cooked his eyes.

“Tangerine!”

It was Uncle Manho. He was characterized by his enormous size, and Tangerine couldn't have grown this big when he was an adult.

Kim Manho stroked Tangerine's head with his big hand.

“Moha Bird? ”

“Yes, sir......”

Kim Man-ho scratched his head. He has entered a state of emergency. The Awakenings of the Awakening Society were currently on a triple shift in urban vigilance.

Of course, you can't say that.

“I'm thinking about what to have for dinner. ”

Tangerine blinked.

He was lying.

Children about the size of tangerines, I know exactly what they are. It is morning, because thinking about dinner itself is not understandable.

However, adults sometimes tell lies.

Usually, it's a very difficult situation. I think you're in trouble.

“Kyung-na. ”

“Did my tangerines eat breakfast? ”

“What about my...... Joe? ”

“You ate it too. ”

Tangerine suddenly realized that people were preparing for something. They struggle with their misfortunes, and no matter what happens, they don't seem strange.

The splendor and the ominosity were seeping through the tangerines.

Kim Manho suddenly sat down and looked at Tangerine.

“Baby.”

“Me!”

“No matter what happens, you don't have to worry. ”

“...... ”

“Now that you're here, don't worry, have fun running. Okay?"

Tangerine stared at Lake Kim.

This man is weak.

Probably very weak compared to my father or brother Echo. However, his words were as reliable as his father's. Tangerine nodded.

“Me!”

“Yes."

Tangerine, who was walking past them into the void, found fairies.

Spring Nymph Leslie, Summer Nymph Laurent, Fall Nymph and Winter Nymph Chris were also walking somewhere holding hands with their bags.

Tangerine jumped out and stood in front of the fairies.

“Where are you going? ”

Leslie wrote letters on the leaves.

[Go back home.]

“Back home? ”

[Yes.]

“Why?”

Leslie wrote down the letters.

[Turn around. I don't really know.]

“Kyu-na Lee......”

Tangerine quickly became greasy. The fairies were old friends of Tangerine, but I was sad to go home.

Leslie and Lauren hugged the tangerines. Tangerine hugged them.

The Fall Nymph stroked the tangerine's hair without a word, and the Winter Nymph only looked at the tangerine quietly.

[See you later.]

“Ugh……”

Tangerines waved their hands at the two elves who were turning and bumping.

Pororok-

Three autumn butterflies that Tangerine had raised flew away. They must have grown up in the back mountains and followed the fairies.

“Are you going with me? ”

The autumn butterflies sat still with their wings folded over their shoulders and on their heads.

Come on, prisoner! I flew up. I flew around for a long time, as if to say hello to a tangerine, and then I flew to the other side.

“...... ”

Tangerine looked at the place quietly. Soon, I waved my hands loudly.

“Goodbye! ”

Tangerine waved her hands until she couldn't see them.

“Bye-bye! Come again! Ah! Ah! ”

Koo-koo-koo-koo!

Then I looked up at the sky.

It was clear until just a moment ago, but it looks like it's about to rain again.

Tangerine stood still and looked at the sky.

Tangerines liked to rain. If the showers were damp and wet, it would be good to make a rattling sound.

But...

This rain is different from that. Tangerine hated the rain. So I ran to the house.

Hudda-da-dak!

On the way home, Tangerine saw countless rats fleeing. It was like a black procession.

- Let's go, let's go, let's run!

- Let's go, let's go!

Tangerine, who heard the voices of rats, suddenly became anxious. So I hurried into the house.

In the house, my father sat alone with a scary face. Tangerine opened her eyes wide and burst into tears.

The scary face, he came as if it were when, and lifted the tangerine.

“Hmmm, Hmmm......”

Cheolho patted the buttocks of such tangerines. And he hugged me.

.

He walked slowly.

The night of the quiet city where the moonlight shined brightly was brighter than any human civilization he had ever seen.

The City of Light.

Nor the Eastern Continent, nor Espan, where he lived. No place has advanced as fast as the city it is today.

He walked the streets of the city in the moonlight and looked under the lamppost.

“...... ”

And I quietly approached it and whispered.

“It's a beautiful night. Grass whispers and worms cry. Unfortunately, there's nowhere for you to stay. ”

Shaaaa-

As Moussavi reaches out his hand, the translucent dead man standing under the lamppost Odocani appears.

“Go where you need to go. ”

The dead are covered in white light and disappear.

Musabi picks up a bottle of wine with his waist dancing and puts it in his mouth.

This was his work that had been very busy lately.

You can see the dead in the eyes of the doppelganger. And the dead man grew very much.

Dead people who aren't where they should be. It's been there a long time, but it's never been like this.

Something is about to happen.

Musabi intuited it, but he was not discouraged by it.

I have lived a long life as a lizard.

Saw a lot, felt a lot.

In the process of living like that, Moussavi realized one truth.

No matter how hard you try, destiny comes.

Countless factions tried to stop it, but it was futile. What's coming is coming.

He looked up at the sky.

Kugu! Kugu! Kugu!

Thunder and lightning struck the sky as if it were split open, and the world was in chaos. Moussavi is caught in the rain as if he were about to devour the world, and walks through an unpopular street.

“...... ”

After walking for a long time, Moussavi stopped.

Turn your head to look over there.

There's a dead man there too.

However, the dead man looked familiar somewhere.

* * *

“Oh, welcome. ”

Cheolho was killed. Moussavi smiles quietly and sits in front of Chulho.

Chulho put the cup down in front of him, without saying a word. And I put a glass in front of him.

Chulho and Moussabi don't say much when drinking. Sometimes, I just drink quietly. Sometimes that's enough.

In his flask, Moussavi follows the liquor.

“Is time okay? ”

“Yes.”

“Do you know why we sent the dead back? ”

Chulho shrugs.

“I don't know.”

“Because the dead who stay on this path for so long are inevitably corrupt. Because evil sprouts in the bodies of the dead who keep the good. The dead turn into demons. ”

“...... ”

“If you become a demon, you'll be fine if you turn into a monster. They use anger as a medium, and they can't tell the pia apart. There were a lot of exorcists in Jushin who repel such evil spirits. As much as that, there's a lot of dead people chanting. So, we make it our business to send the dead back as soon as we find them. ”

He couldn't have said what he deserved.

Chulho nods quietly.

“I see.”

“My friend.”

Moussavi slowly opens his mouth.

“What kind of food did your parents like? ”

“My parents.”

Cheolho remembered his parents. My father loved the squid repellent. It was Father's theory that even the lowest quality was not enough for a glass of soju at the squid convention. He really was a Busan man to the bone.

And your mother?

My mother liked thin ribs. I remembered that Cheolho enjoyed twice as much on her wedding anniversary or birthday as he did on the contrary. It was just full of things that my mom and dad liked.

Pretty much.

It's a relaxing, joyful childhood memory.

“If you have ingredients, you'd better be prepared. ”

Musabi said so, looking behind him. A white light leaks from the Blasabee's hand.

After a while.

The two dead men standing behind him reveal themselves.

“...... ”

Chulho glanced at them quietly. They were very familiar with Chulho.

Even Chulho, who wasn't embarrassed by anything, became stiff.

♪ thum-thum-thum-thum-thum-thum-thum-thum-thum-thum-thum- ♪

My heart was racing. To Chulho, who blinked his eyes, Moussabi asked.

“Do you know these faces? ”

Chulho nods slowly.

Blasabee smiles lightly.

“I'll leave you to it. ”

< I'll leave you to it. > End
