My Dad Is Too Strong

Daddy's too strong. Episode 186.

Ten years ago, after the crack.

On September 6 every year, at 5 p.m., a phenomenon called "Falling Star" occurred in several cracks. In Korean, a shooting star fell for 60 minutes per minute, which is commonly referred to as a shooting star, when rumors spread that a wish would come true, attracting many people every year.

In Seoul, we could see the phenomenon in a class F crack in the Hangang Park in Ichon-dong.

Since six years ago, the Seoul Metropolitan Government's Culture and Arts Festival Promotion Team held a festival every year to promote the city.

Naturally, the crack management department, which manages the crack, has subsidized the festival every year.

A few days before the festival, they controlled cracks and drove monsters into a corner to prepare for any mishaps.

a seat attended by the Seoul mayor and various guests

As there is a saying, "The festival begins with protocol, and ends with protocol."

Naturally, protocol was the most important, and there were some obligations in the crack management department to successfully complete the festival through safety inspections based on it.

This day.

The crack management department installed and operated a temporary situation room within the crack.

It's called a class F crack, but as many ordinary citizens visit.

Crack management officials and their contract hunters will be on duty in the situation room to take responsibility for the safety of citizens in case of an emergency.

A site in a crack that extends over 900,000 square meters.

Without a single tree, this place is covered with grass.

It was a scene of cracks in which goblins, a common sight, appeared.

However, today was a little special.

Various tents are set up and the stage is set up.

The festival promotion team divided into two programs.

In the first part, there is an event where people write their wishes on paper and fly them to balloons with appreciation of shooting stars.

In the second part, fireworks were prepared with songs by various invited singers.

"Oh, my God. It's a dead body."

After returning from the report, Kang Chul-soo sat on a plastic chair in the situation room and spread like death. It is a festival every year, but as I get older and older, I have already shown signs of difficulty because my physical strength is not supported.

"Good work."

Dojun offered a bottle of bottled water to Kang Chul-soo.

Kang Chul-soo picked up the lid of the bottled water and emptied it in half in a hurry.

On the day of the festival, it must have been quite difficult for him to come out early in the morning, finish a final safety check with Hunters, and report to his chief of staff that there was nothing wrong with the festival.

"I'm going somewhere else next year. Really."

Kwon Hyuk-soo shrugged at the remark.

It's already been two years. Even that word."

"This time it's real. I told the chief of staff. You want me to transfer to another department?"

"Is there any place for crack management? I've been working here my whole life."

"I want to stop looking at this crack."

Actually, I didn't mean it.

As Kwon Hyuk-soo said, the crack management position is one department for life.

So I got to work in the crack management department.

Of course, if the department is separated or newly established in connection with the crack later on, it can be moved.

It's still a long story.

"It's creepy to think about seeing you guys next year, too."

"You said you were one body."

"Hey, you're saying it's creepy."

Dojun was laughing while listening to the two of them tequitaka.

I checked text messages sent to my smartphone. Text from Seol Yoon-hee.

Next year is the weekend, so let's all watch it together!

She is.

I was looking forward to this festival.

However, it overlapped with the mid-term exam for the semester and started at 5 p.m. on weekdays and was unable to attend because of the lack of time, but he seemed to be very sorry that he could not see the shooting star.

"I feel it every time, but isn't it amazing?"

Kwon Hyuk-soo murmured.

Same place, same date. Same time.

A total of 60 thick shooting stars fall, one at intervals of one minute.

Many hypotheses have been set up to scientifically prove this phenomenon.

In the first place, along with the modern supernatural phenomenon of [Sung Sang-chang] and [skills] appeared, it remained an indeterminate mystery the cause.

"That's interesting."

"What will you wish for this year?""

"The Lotto Winner."

"It's the same every year."

"Of course. Money is everything in the world. The moment you win first place, you drop it."

"You'll make the same wish next year."

"......no, but this bastard."

Kang Chul-soo coughed in vain.

"Dohjun, what wish are you going to make?"

"You mean that?"

"Yes. You."

Dojun grinned.

"I hope you win the lottery."

"Thanks for the empty words."

It was then.

The moment it turns 6 p.m.

The shooting star, which everyone had been waiting for, began to fall from the sky.

The sun had not yet set completely and looked hazy, but people roared.

A shooting star festival that begins with the host's comment.

"Hey, hey, hey. Don't be distracted and blow up the wish balloon quickly."

Kang Chul-soo made a fuss, handing out balloons and wish papers to Do-jun and Kwon Hyuk-soo.

Twinkle!

Shooting stars fall every minute.

At the same time, people's wish balloons flew high into the sky.

Do-jun was lost in thought, recalling the text message sent by Seol Yoon-hee.

***

When the festival was over and I came back home after cleaning up, it was a little over 10 p.m.

The lights were turned off in the house, and when I went into the main room, I could see the children lying in bed and quietly falling into the dreamland. After thinking about waking him up, he shook his head and went straight to the roof. And on the way here, I took out barbecue ingredients such as barbecue grill and pork, sausage and bell pepper.

I put charcoal in the grill and bounced it with my fingers.

Then, the fire started to flare up and gradually died down and began to turn red.

He put the grill on top and put pork, sausages, and bell peppers on a wooden skewer to make the skewers fast.

Dojun checked his wristwatch and checked the current time.

Ten twenty in the evening. Around 11 o'clock, Seol Yoon-hee will be back home.

Charcoal fire is fused with low-grade mana stone and has a special effect, which will last for several hours, unlike ordinary charcoal fire.

It took about 30 minutes to make about 20 skewers.

Thinking that this was enough, Dojun slowly went home.

Byul looked at the barbecue grill with great curiosity.

Yong-yong and Carthiel have already enjoyed being a barbecue with glamping experience, but this is the first time for Byul. They stare blankly at the charcoal burning inside the grill and the barbecue skewers that ripen on the grill. Moon Byul, who woke up, rubbed her eyes, yawned and followed her to the rooftop, was glistening to see if her sleep had fled.

But the most exciting thing was Yong-yong.

The tail fluttered and savored the aroma of the barbecue.

Carthiel seemed restless, asking if he could help, but Do-jun smiled, stroked his head, and grilled the skewers upside down.

"Lord there...…."

"Huh?"

Karsiel hesitated.

However, Dojun could easily catch her intentions.

Because Carthiel's eyes have been on Hakase's cart bar since a while ago.

Dojun smiled and answered as if not to worry.

"He says he'll be right back when the business is over."

Only then did Karsiel's face unfold.

I received a lot of help from Hakase, and it was on my mind because if I didn't invite him to a barbecue party, he might be disappointed. Even if it's not true, the more people there are in this position, the more noisy and exciting it is.

***

When Seol Yoon-hee arrived home, there was no one.

In a dark house. After turning on the living room lights, she looked at the main room, the bathroom, etc.

But I couldn't see anyone. Dojun was told that he could come home late because of his work, but the children were always supposed to be playing or sleeping at home at this time.

Then I found a note on the table.

[Come to the roof.]

Dojun's handwriting.

Seol Yun-hee put down her bag and went up to the fifth floor in an elevator.

Then he stepped on the emergency steps to the roof, carefully opened the door of the roof.

Her eyes were wide open. Under the soft light of the roof, everyone huddled in front of the barbecue grill.

"Mamma!"

Moon Byul rushed to Seol Yoon-hee.

Embarrassed, Seol Yun-hee approached Do-jun, who was baking a barbecue.

"Oh, Father, what about this?"

"You're hungry, aren't you? Sit down and eat."

Dojun smiled and handed Seol a ripe skewer.

She sat next to an empty Dojun and ate a piece of skewer, even as she made a face at the sudden barbecue party that she didn't know the English. The proper salt seasoning was quite delicious, combined with the smell of charcoal fire.

"Did you do well on the test?"

"Yes, I came in third. If the ceremony lasted two more seconds at the end, I could've gone up to second place......... Oh, but the instructor complimented me a lot. You said you were talented, but you said you were looking forward to the next test, right?"

I start talking about everything that happened today, from one to ten.

Dojun listened to her day without saying anything. This reminds me of what happened when I first returned to Earth. A sudden-looking family member for Dojun, who had to stand alone on Earth. Now that I think about it, it was funny that it was a dad contract.

Swoosh.

Let's broaden our horizons.

Then Yong-yong, Karsiel and the stars were seen.

Further, I could see Hakase and Kiriel quarreling.

Those two look bad, but they're pretty close now.

When they were in the world of Simgye, they said they were bitter against each other, but frankly, they laughed.

Whoo-Woong!

in a moment

The intangible energy fluttered from Dojun's hand and then disappeared.

Dojun then takes out a new skewer and puts it on the grill.

I picked up a pinch of salt and began to sprinkle it on my skewers.

"Father, I'll do it."

"No. I'll do it today."

"But tired......... eh?"

Seol Yoon-hee rubbed her eyes.

At that moment a shooting star fell.

Now, did you see something wrong?

No.

It wasn't an illusion.

The polling star phenomenon was happening.

However, it was distinctly different from any other shooting star.

Rainbow-colored, seven-colored stars embroidered in the sky.

The dozens and hundreds of beautiful stars began to pour down along the sky's contours.

This is what happens.

It was the first time.

Seol Yoon-hee looks at the starlight pouring in as if she can't believe it.

She wasn't the only one. Everyone was gazing up at the beautiful sight.

In the meantime, Dojun turned the barbecue skewer over so that both sides were evenly cooked.

"Oh, right. Wish!"

Seol Yoon-hee muttered something.

I closed my eyes and put my fingers together.

After a while, he looked satisfied.

"What did you wish for?"

asked Dojun.

"Well... ...I wish everyone here is always healthy and happy."

Do-jun smiled.

"Yes."

Then, in Dojun's eyes.

Yong-yong came in with his eyes closed and his fingers crossed.

What do they wish for?

"Tomorrow..."

Yong-yong muttered.

Please let me have braised short ribs for dinner tomorrow.
