My Dad Is Too Strong

the deep foothills of Mt. Umyeon

Two men showed up in a lake with a refreshing feeling.

"You're a real cocky lizard. How dare you challenge this body's professional fishing skills?”

Kiriel took out his fishing rod and provoked again.

Hakase responded to the bite with his eyes wide open.

"You really want to try it, huh?"”

Two men staring at each other with glaring eyes.

"It's a game. Stupid."

"That's what this body says. Stupid."

Then they started walking in opposite directions.

The world of victory is cold.

Splash!

When I threw the fishing rod, the lake rippled.

From now on, it is the attitude of a professional fisherman to wait patiently until the fish bites. At this moment, Kiriel opened his eyes, vowing to properly bend the cocky lizard's nose. It depends on who catches more fish.

"Hmm."

I don't get a bite today. Kiriel scratched his head.

I was thinking about changing my seat, and then I shook my head.

Instead, he took out a comic book because he was bored to wait blankly.

Took.

About half an hour later.

At last the fishing rod moved slightly. The bite has come.

Kiriel put down his comic book and quickly caught a fishing rod.

What's wrong with this?

The fishing rod was as heavy as a rock.

"Oh, oh, oh?”

The fishing rod begins to sink into the lake.

Frustrated, Kiriel grabbed the fishing rod with all his might. But the fishing rod didn't really budge like a stone, and soon Kieriel fell into the lake with the fishing rod.

***

Fishing didn't suit my aptitude.

Not a single fish was caught, even though the promised three hours had passed. Apparently there were a lot of fish swimming in the lake, but somehow they didn't bite Hakase's ddeokbap, and eventually had to go back empty-handed.

"Where did you go?”

We arrived at the place where Kiriel was fishing, but there was no one.

However, as evidenced by the fact that they were originally here, there were folding chairs and rice cake bins for fishing purposes.

It was then.

The surface of the lake is bubbling up.

Balloon!

An old man with a white beard appears.

Umyeonsan Mountain was a mountain god who was living in seclusion in a deep place with few people.

The mountain god stared at Hakase, and went into the lake and came out again in a second.

Not alone, with two men with familiar faces.

"Is it the polite and polite Kiriel you dropped? Or are you a sincere and good Kiriel?"

The two men were obviously Kiriel.

But it felt a little different. They had a benevolent smile, unlike Kiriel's usual appearance. Hakase blinked.

"...this is what happened."

Do-jun, who was told about Kiriel becoming a completely different person, took a sip of Coke. Sitting on the bench in front of Changshin Super, Dojun and Hakase each had a canned coke in their hands. Coke was bought by Kiriel.

"Come on, kids, have one."

"Wow! Thank you, Mr. Bungeoppang!"

"Hahaha! Yes, yes."

The sight of Kiriel buying and handing out food to local children with a fresh smile was indeed awkward for Hakase. Even though it was his usual Kiriel, he would buy him something to eat, but he would grumble, saying, 'The snacks are looking at his body as a pushover.'

"Oh! Guard grandpa, give it to me."

"Yes?"

"You'll have a hard time getting up early in the morning and working, but I'll do the broom work, so take a good rest. Ha ha ha."

"......"

Sweep, brush!

Kiriel began to sweep the floor hard to see what was so pleasant. Hakase had goose bumps all over his body.

***

The cart bar was crowded with guests coming for a drink in the evening. It is rumored to be a good restaurant around here, and guests of various ages, ranging from young lovers to middle-aged office workers, often filled the table. For some reason, the guests who visited once became regular customers and introduced them to other acquaintances, and the acquaintances brought in acquaintances again.

"I love the boss here. You know, he's a little prick. He's not feeling well.”

"Hey, that's not all. How big is your hand? Well, unlike other stores, human life is delicious.”

"Ah. That's right, that's right."

The people heading for the carts made a light step.

"Welcome! Are you three?"

Yes?

"Sit here in an empty seat. Please wait a moment. I'll get you a menu."

"...yeah?"

People embarrassed by the unusual reaction.

"Here's the menu. Please let me know when you order."

Bug, bend your head.

Awkward. He's not normally like that.

And it seemed the same with other guests that felt the unexpected.

Even the president, Hakase, was showing signs of discomfort.

"Mr. Hakase. I'm out of soju, so I'll get it from the mart for a moment."

"Oh... he, yeah. "

"I'll be right back."

Kiriel stepped out of the cart. And the patrons of the cart bar asked.

"Did something happen? What's wrong with the boss all of a sudden?”

"......that guy hurt his head while fishing. Fortunately, it doesn't affect your life. As you can see, the problem is... It just got a little weird like that."

"Ah!"

Guests breathed a sigh of sorrow and sympathy.

Days had passed, and cart bar sales were falling. Hakase was thinking that this should not be the case. It wasn't just a matter of sales. Something, overall. I felt the lively neighborhood subsiding little by little.

"Welcome, boys. Now, take one bungeoppang here."

"... Oh, no. We'll just go."

"What's wrong with you? I'll give it to you for free.”

"Da, I'll come back next time!"

The children hurried out of the cart. Even the star, who couldn't eat anything, felt a deep sense of incompatibility, stopped his finger eating chicken feet and came down from the chair. I haven't even eaten half of it yet.

"Our star eats less today."

"......"

"Oh, right. Do you want me to read you a fairy tale book? I bought a new book from a bookstore yesterday. It'll probably be fun."

"Shi, shi shi shi."

The star backed out of the cart.

"Oh, come on, for a moment...”

Put down the hand that was stretched out toward the baby.

With a sullen face, he begins to clean up the star's chicken feet plate.

Then Do-jun, who was watching the scene with his finger touching the table, got up from his seat and approached Kiriel.

***

Dojun put the stunned Kiriel on the floor.

Deep in Mount Umyeon, looked at the lake where the mountain god lived.

Then ripples rose in the lake, and the waves parted and the mountain god appeared. The mountain god walked over the lake and approached Dojun to bow down.

"How are you?”

"Yes, thanks to you, I'm doing fine."

"Fortunately, it's because of him that I came to visit."

The mountain god fainted and looked at Kiriel lying on the floor. A man who sometimes comes to the lake to fish. He was also a man who fell into the "Lake of the Spirit" a few days ago.

"You mean Kiriel, who is polite and polite, sincere and good?"

"Yes, I'm going to change my personality."

This was the first time. The mountain god was slightly embarrassed.

It wasn't difficult to change the original state, but why do you want to change the state of the entire body, which is full of good points? But he didn't complain about Dojun's words.

"Okay. Then, please put Kiriel in the lake."

After Dojun nodded.

grabbed Kiriel and threw him into the center of the lake.

The next day, 4 p.m.

Local children huddled together in front of the supermarket. Today was the day of 'can kick'. Kicking a can was a game similar to the so-called tag. Anyway, the children were waiting until all the members who were supposed to kick cans gathered.

"...uh? It's Mr. Bungeoppang."

"Yes, but he's been a little weird lately.”

"...yes. I don't like it."

"Me too... what if you come and talk to me?”

The children were quite burdened with Kiriel. At first, it was good to buy food for no reason or to be kind to me, but now that Kiriel really felt like a grown-up, somehow unfamiliar, it was not a very pleasant feeling.

with a jerk

But Kiriel did not come to talk. However, they go into the supermarket, buy a can of coke, and drink it there. The children stared at each other, blinking their eyes. It was strange. Obviously, yesterday, a 180-degree change from the day before yesterday. Did he come back to the way he was?

A child talked to him.

"Why are you eating alone, old man? Buy us one, too."

"What is it?"

"Right, I'm thirsty. I'm thirsty.”

"Did you leave the money? Buy it with your pocket money.”

At the moment, the children's faces brightened up.

It was clear that they had returned to the original Cyrillic, as they knew it!

"Mister. Uncle."

"Why again?"

"Do you want to play us? A can kick! If you lose, buy us food."

Kiriel snorted.

You must have got a can because you drank all the coke.

Kiriel said, placing an empty can in the middle of the vacant lot.

"I'll teach you a lesson so you won't come at me again."

***

at sunset

It wasn't until dinner time that Star came home.

The star's hands were packed with snacks.

"Mamma. You go bara? I've eaten."

"Oh, my. Where did you get all the money?”

"Ki Lee kid loses. A tin-carpet car, a rice-lily."

Then a loud voice of the children came from outside the veranda.

Seol Yun-hee walked out to the veranda and looked down. In front of the supermarket, children surrounded Hakase.

Can I really pick this much?

.......

It's okay! Wow, guys, put it in! Put it in!

.......

"Foot."

Seol Yoon-hee smiled without realizing it.

"You've been doing this for more than a few days, but you seem to be back to normal."

"Yes."

Dojun smiled and picked up the newspaper.

On this day, Kiriel, who lost the can kick, bought a total of 10 children 10,000 won worth of snacks and spent a total of 100,000 won.

But the sales of the cart bar were three times higher than usual.

In the end, Kiriel saw a surplus of 200,000 won as Hakase, who felt better, gave him 300,000 won, saying it was an allowance.
