The Returner

4. I don't need a reason to go to him (2)

“Where are you going? ”

His voice was low, heavy, and also heavy.

A low ringing voice was something that shook the heart.

Even though it was just a voice with no emotion, it felt like the blood filling the room was shaking.

“A place called Earth. ”

The voice of the answer was seductive.

As I approached and stroked gently, there was a stickiness inside that was not just soft but sticky.

The user receives a captivating, eloquent voice that does not seem to resonate with the target's heavy voice at all.

“Do you know who you are? ”

“Of course.”

“And yet you want to go to Earth? ”

Woman.

A woman with a full body in an unknown black leather size raised her head and slightly extended her lips.

A burning red lip slightly dampened with her tongue, she glances at the man with dazzling eyes and twitches her head.

“But?”

“Herkana!”

A woman named Herkana asked me why, and the man distorted his face.

“Why?”

“Why?”

The woman started laughing.

A sharp voice, but even that laugh shook my mind.

The greatest of all the Circus and the Mage King.

The thirteenth Demon King.

Circus queen, Herkana.

She looks at the man with red eyes.

“You know, you're asking, right? Huh?”

“Is it him? ”

“Of course not. Why would I go to this world? It's boring and boring. There's nothing to see except that one guy. ”

The man shakes his head.

The Circus Queen.

The woman in that tenacious position.

And the most powerful Demon Monarch in the magic world.

It was completely unknown why she was obsessed with such a human being.

“The ninety-ninth Demon King is no more. He's just a man. ”

“I know.”

“Though you were the right-hand man of the nineteenth Demon King, he is now a weak man. But I still don't understand why I'm so obsessed with him. ”

Herkana stares at the man as if he were pathetic.

“It's stupid. ”

“Mmmm!”

“He's not with the Nineteenth Demon King. I made him the nineteenth Demon King. ”

“... I forgot for a moment. ”

Forgetting is no different from demons or dragons. Nevertheless, the ninety-ninth Demon King was strong enough to be mistaken.

“So you want to make him the Demon King again? ”

“No, you don't. ”

“Then?”

Herkana looks at the man with the pathetic eyes.

“I keep trying to figure out why. ”

“ ……. ”

“I don't need a reason to go to him. Anyway, keep that in mind. ”

“How will you manage your territory when you are gone! Since you've absorbed the Nineteenth Demon King's territory, you probably don't know that your territory is the widest in the magic world. ”

“If you want it, take it. ”

“This……. ”

“That doesn't mean anything anymore. I'm going to him. ”

The man looks at Herkana with burning eyes, but Herkana leaves without giving him a single glance.

The man who saw her behind and her fluttering tail gnawed her lips.

“The nineteenth Demon King.... ”

Lee Ji-hyuk!

The man who was about to be torn to shreds is still affecting the spirit system.

“I should have killed you then! ”

If you join us to the thirteenth Demon King, it will be more important to deal with the nineteenth Demon King.

If so, we must move before then.

“Boroel.”

“Yes, my Demon King. ”

“Call Del Karan. ”

“I understand.”

The man leans on the throne with his eyes lowered.

He brought vitality to the horse system, but now it's too dangerous.

Rather, his current existence is a little more awkward than it used to be.

“Let me sleep a long night. ”

I haven't had a break in a long time.

“How am I supposed to know it's the courier company? ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk stared at Jung-min dazed.

Now let's just say we're sitting on the couch in our living room and chopping up apples as if it were natural.

But the question is, why is it so bad?

“Did you really get rid of the idol? ”

“... I can't even go on TV. I don't take cables anymore. No events.”

Lee Hyuk covered his face, looking at Jung Jeong-min who was disheartened.

That was the only thing that was useful, and now it's a swan.

“But you... you get paid because you're talented anyway. ”

“I'll give you as much as a rat's tail and you can't eat it! What's wrong with people playing? They have to work! ”

Park Seon-deok, who was listening to Jung Jeong-min next to him, tilted his head.

How am I supposed to evaluate this?

When I saw it in my son's payroll account, I thought it was not small, but if I said it was small, I'd feel bad....

But if you don't play and tell your body that you're going to make money, it seems like you have a life force....

Is this a negative or a plus?

It was a very subtle statement.

“You're obsessed with idols. That's why you've been practicing for 10 years. ”

“Yes, but.... ”

Jung Jeong-min made a complicated face.

I recently realized that I didn't want to be an idol, but I wanted to be recognized by someone.

People don't see their own desires.

When I felt that there were many people who needed me, even if I wasn't an idol, I thought that I could quit my life of Idol, holding my hand tightly and not letting go.

I would have been in bed crying all day long if I was in the past, but now I think I'm not so upset that I'm somewhat out of Idol obsession.

“Ah……. ”

Lee Hyuk nodded as if he knew.

“I see now that you're an idol at that age and that it's a shame to be wearing it! ”

“No!”

Jung Jeong-min was flustered.

Even older sisters still run around in little girl dresses!

I've been an Idol trainee for 10 years, but I've joined the company since I was very young, so I'm not that old!

Everyone knows that when they're older than him!

“Yeah, well, to be honest, it's been a little overwhelming. ”

“No! How many people liked me! ”

“Then where did they all go? ”

“ ……. ”

Jung Jeong-min stared at Lee Hyuk, pouting.

Tears welled up around her eyes.

“T, I can't be on TV, so wait... ”

“I would've switched to prettier, younger, cuter kids for a while. ”

“Oh, no! They're still flying around the house! ”

“Like old times?”

Ugh.

Her shoulders sag like a damp cotton ball.

Just like old times! What a cruel thing to say!

There were no demons.

“You……. ”

“It wasn't even a thousand years' worth of food anyway, that's all I wanted. Now I have to live a new life as an international courier. ”

“Ugh... ”

Jung-min trembled.

She was making some decisions in her own way, but I heard it with Lee Hyuk's mouth. Why is it so scary and gloomy?

He was a strange magical man who offended people in spite of hearing the same words.

“How's the courier idol? I think you're gonna be great. Deliver your courier directly……. ”

“Aaahhhhhh!”

Lee Hyuk panicked during the eardrum bomber, and Park Seon-deok and Lee Ye-won jumped to the second floor, covering their ears.

“Lice! Lice! ”

After hearing the sound, the appendage sighs and walks through the silence.

Lee Hyuk smiled as he saw Jung Jae-min crying with her mouth wide open so that she could see her tits.

“It's almost morning. ”

It was the beginning of a refreshing morning.

“Is that Bob?”

Nod.

“Hmmm... ”

Lee Hyuk awkwardly smiled at Kim Da-som, who was waiting at the door, when he received the rice from his fist and soup from the warmer.

Thank you, though.

“You, stop waiting for morning. ”

“… Yes? ”

“It's so cold... ”

Lee Hyuk sighed after seeing Kim Da-som's face that was half frozen.

The weather used to be nice, so I didn't care how many hours I waited outside, but now I want to stay forever.

There's a kid out there, not a prodigy, waiting for someone to feel good, and if he feels good, he's crazy.

Am I crazy?

“Even if I told you not to wait, would you? ”

“ ……. ”

“Phew... ”

Well, there's nothing we can do.

“In the future, just ring the bell and come in. Mommy's gonna open it for you. ”

“Yes?”

“Don't tell me to wait, but I'll wait anyway, so I'd rather just come in and play. Look at that kid. You know it's my house. ”

“I'm not.”

Jung Jeong-min, whose eyes were puffed, shook her head.

The drops on the hat on my head move around as my head shakes... It's so cute.

“Do you understand?”

“… Yes. ”

Kim Da-Som nods with a red frozen face.

Lee Hyuk's heart also relaxed when he saw the face with a subtle smile.

“Tsk.”

You've made a lot of connections.

And then he couldn't even take care of her.

‘Not this time. ’

The reason they were careless about their past relationships was because they knew that they were the beings that eventually passed through the life of Lee Ji-hyuk.

They were the ones who wanted to give their love to Lee Hyuk who was living an endless life, but could not give it to them even if they wanted to give them love that they had not lived for just a thousand years.

When you close your eyes and open them, you can't be nice to the things that disappear.

But these are not.

They are now the ones who walk together for the rest of their lives.

After acknowledging it, I felt a little more interested.

“You too!"

Lee Hyuk rolled his feet slightly and his head popped out of the shadow.

“Put some clothes on! ”

Lee Hyuk frowned, looking at the first time I met him and looking at his clothes that were not so different.

Then he's strange too.

You don't have a home?

I always closely monitor myself. Sometimes it disappears in the middle, but that time was never long.

If I had to meet my family or anyone else, I couldn't do it.

In the meantime, I acted recklessly because I wanted to, but after paying attention, he was a mysterious human being.

“Who are you, your guardian? ”

“... a witch. ”

“Are you... Seo Ah Young's guardian? ”

“Yes.”

Lee Hyuk trembled.

Who's protecting who?

“Don't you have a family? Mom? Dad? ”

“Nothing.”

“... Is Seo Ah-young your legal guardian? ”

“Yes.”

Male.

It's the end.

Health Services!

Oh, no.

The Women's Family Department?

Anyway, what are the government bastards doing? She's a protector!

“Somehow I didn't think he had any care at all. ”

That crazy woman's been pushing the kid around.

Lee Hyuk realized his indiscretion and sighed deeply.

I thought I'd have to tidy up around it once.

“Let's go to work for now. ”

If it were peaceful, the tranquil life was beginning again.
