The Returner

4. Fear of the Demon King, Fear of Mother (4)

“I was surprised at first. I was summoned to Beraf after thousands of years, but at least I thought the arc mae payer was summoned. But I must have been so embarrassed to have a child without Manago. ”

“Then let's just go. ”

“Heh heh heh heh, so is Darling. He's a good joker.”

I don't think you're joking.

Who would joke with that look on their face?

“Hnng.”

Lee Hyuk shouted, but Erkana could not hear him at all.

“So I was just going to go... Actually, I'm bored. But it's only been a few thousand years. So I wanted to make a connection to this opportunity, so I signed it. ”

“You're lucky for Lee Ji-hyuk. ”

Luck?

Lee Hyuk was overwhelmed by an impulse to find out how far Choi Jung-hoon would open his mouth to speak easily.

“No. I'm lucky to have met our darling. Hehe.”

“ ……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon covered his face.

It's strange.

This couple looks oddly good together, but I don't like the look of it.

An annoying feeling, like seeing a couple of cockroaches fit together?

But you don't have the right balance.

Even though it's not a face I won't be able to look at, I can't blame you for being objectively good-looking, but Erkana's eyes are so pretty....

Hmm…….

“What a squid. ”

“What?"

“Oh, no. ”

Choi Jung-hoon turned his head slightly.

I'm telling you, the world is relative!

Even if I put such a handsome man next to her, he'll die looking like that... With Lee Hyuk... I mean, that's...

You won't hear Lee Hyuk's ugliness anywhere, but she's not a beauty and a beast, she's a beauty and an oak.

Of course, Lee Hyuk didn't want to do it, but it was impossible to cover his tears when he saw it like that.

“So I went to see Darling after I got bored. ”

“Is there a line between this place and Beraf? I think we're going to have to go through a lot to get here. ”

“It's no different. ”

“But how can it be that easy? ”

“Oh, you're an idiot. ”

“ ……. ”

I've never heard you call me an idiot in my life!

If you are the Horsemen, then you are the Horsemen, and I am the owner of the top 0.1% of people's intelligence!

“You know who I am and you say that. I'm the queen of the circus. I can always go to meet through the dreams of the person I'm contracting with. ”

“... I wished I could sleep. ”

“Ah……. ”

That's why people are so crooked.

Somehow.

Before moving on, I thought it was strange that someone who had never been in trouble before came back to Korea and became a middle-man, for a reason.

“I can't help but notice that our darling Darling is such a wonderful man! ”

“No way.”

“Excuse me?”

“No, Lee Ji-hyuk is a really cool guy. ”

“Right? Hehe. ”

The King's Donkey's Donkey!

My Lord...

Ugh, where's the bamboo grove?

Whether Choi Jung-hoon's insides rotted or not, Herkana smiled brightly and said.

“How sweet and gentle a person is. ”

‘Lies.’

“Understanding, caring.... ”

"You should at least drool in your mouth! ’

“How romantic it is. ”

Choi Jeong-hoon gave up understanding Erkana's words. Instead of cutting her off, what he chose was to turn his eyes to Lee Hyuk.

“Explain yourself. ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk opened his mouth without me knowing how determined he was.

“I'm not like that, to be honest. ”

“That's right.”

“That's right."

“That's right. ”

“... Don't be triple minded. ”

Lee Hyuk cleared his throat.

Bloody, tearless bastards. If you could be a little more supportive, where would it go?

“But think about it. ”

“What?”

“What are the comparison criteria? ”

“Ah……. ”

Choi Jung-hoon was reasonable.

All the males I've seen in Herkana's lifetime are either Horsemen or Demon Kings.

Yi Hyuk is a romantic and decent person compared to the Demon King or the Horseman.

It was clear.

“Ha, but in that sense, isn't there a man in Beraf? ”

“On a horse basis, 20 years is 20 days, on a human basis, what do you do with an old man in 20 days? When I woke up, I was dead. ”

“Ah……. ”

That's for sure.

“And the Beraph men are no different than the Demon King. If the people of the Joseon Dynasty go there, they'll be treated like feminists. They don't even see women as people. How shocked I was when I first went. ”

Choi Jung-hoon nodded.

Although we don't know the exact level of Beraph's civilization, there are many countries that are not guaranteed human rights for women more than in the past shipbuilding age, even if they are overseas in modern times.

So it was no surprise that Beraf's women's rights level was miserable.

“That's where I fell. ”

“Ha……. ”

It's like that.

The birth of a legendary feminist humanitarian.

Even with common sense, it's almost heretical.

“Aye! How sweet of a man, it seemed to melt. ”

“... I wish it would just melt. ”

“Darling has a great sense of humor. Kahahaha!”

Is that Mack in part?

Or do you really think this is a joke?

I don't know which side, but Lee Hyuk only sighed deeply to see if the reaction was familiar.

“That's why I proposed first! Darling's stunning eyes! ”

Choi Jung-hoon looked at Lee Hyuk with a fat face.

“... I was lonely. ”

Fall into a world that no one knows about and live like a monster. How happy it is to see someone who likes you.

Choi Jung-hoon nodded, listening to Lee Hyuk's thoughts.

“I don't need it all, I'm welcome just by looking at my face. ”

Uhhhhhhh!

“Chug!”

Choi Jung-hoon knelt on his back without screaming because of the fierce blow behind his back.

Is this death?

What's the point of hitting someone with something like this?

“I think my clothes are torn. ”

I hear a voice that seems to be worrying about Jeong-min.

“That must hurt.”

How badly would the Demon King worry if he was hit?

Choi Jung-hoon's hands are stretched out as he screams in agony.

“Heel.”

Something white seeps in, and the pain subsides.

“Lord, you almost died! ”

“I wish I was dead. ”

Let's not be afraid to say that.

Choi Jung-hoon was a horse, avoiding Seo Ah-young's eyes, as if Kim Da-som was giving off a possession.

“But why now? ”

Lee Hyuk said with his soul escaping.

“... I didn't know marriage was the grave of life. ”

“No, darling. It's a blessing.”

“I never thought I'd do that for a thousand years. ”

“It's only been a thousand years. ”

“Please.”

Lee Hyuk said with tears.

“You have to strengthen a healthy person with all kinds of magic! You're supposed to be training someone who won't move! ”

Choi Jung-hoon nodded.

Well, I mean...

So this is the woman who is responsible for Lee Hyuk's stable life among the Demon Kings.

To put it bluntly, you're the true enemy of Mahjong.

“That's why you're stronger. Hehe.”

“All I had to do was come back to reality! There was another way! ”

“Oh, no. A man's got talent. He's got to succeed. Now that I think about it, don't you think that Darling steamed the other Demon Kings? ”

I thought it was a human victory because a man was just a man beating up flying Demon Kings, but then there was this story.

I felt like I didn't know whether to cry or smile.

“So……. ”

Fortunately, there was someone to join the war on behalf of Jung-hoon Choi.

“Are you still claiming your wife's rights? ”

“Hmm-hmm?”

Erkana looks back at the decisive people in a seductive relationship.

“Why?”

“He hates himself. ”

“No? Darling? ”

Erkana strokes Lee Hyuk's cheek with a smile.

“You don't know, do you? How different our darling is from what she says and does. You keep saying that, but you're not pushing me away. You're hopeless without even knowing it. ”

“Profit!”

Jung-min.

Then they'll take you to the lab. You have to vibrate moderately.

“Why aren't you talking? If you don't like it, you have to say no! ”

The arrow returned to Lee Hyuk.

“Hnng.”

Lee Hyuk shouted.

“I told you what would happen if you spoke up. Have you ever seen me take a breath? ”

“No.”

Definitely never seen him like that.

“Talk to someone who can communicate. ”

Tears fell from Lee Hyuk's eyes.

“I'd run away if I didn't know better. ”

“Oh?”

Erkana was surprised and looked back at Lee Hyuk.

“Darling, did you run away? ”

“ ……. ”

Lee Hyuk was speechless, and Erkana's eyes went up.

Are you mad?

Choi Jung-hoon watched the two of them with fried popcorn.

This could get dramatic.

“Oh my gosh, we've had a rough run. I'll do better. In the future, I'll need to be more active in calming Darling's heart. ”

“Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh.”

Choi Jeong-hoon saw the dew in Lee Hyuk's eyes.

When I saw Lee Hyuk who was disheartening, my heart ached.

He's not like that...

“That doesn't make any sense. ”

“I'm not kidding. ”

“Cool.”

I understood why Lee Hyuk couldn't say anything.

It was a case in which passion came out in a strange direction.

“There seems to be a solution. ”

“Solution?”

Seo Ah-young said, Jung Min-min glanced at me.

“You look like you've met a married man, but you can't chew your hair off! ”

Seo Ah-young's work makes her head down.

“Even if you rip your hair off, you have to fix the situation first. And he's been there for a thousand years. ”

“But?”

“Wouldn't it be more awkward to meet a thousand years old man? ”

“… I think so, too? ”

This is a little cryptic.

I don't like being a married man, but it's really terrible to be a bachelor for over a thousand years.

An extreme inadequacy.

The moment I realized which one was better, the distinction didn't begin to go away.

“You just have to meet someone else. ”

In response to Choi Jung-hoon's clear answer, Jung-min narrowed his eyes.

“You know that's not why you're doing this, right? ”

“I'm sorry."

Jung Hae Min said goodbye to Jung-hoon and asked Seo Ah-young.

“So what's the solution? ”

“He's the Demon King. ”

“Yes.”

“So I don't know. ”

“What?”

“You have to go through Seaworld to get married in Korea. ”

“ ……. ”

“The Demon King is something else. What's scarier than mother-in-law? ”

No matter how scary the demons are, how scary the demons are, and how scary the Demon King is, would he be more afraid of his mother-in-law than he is of coming home one day?

People were scarier than ghosts.

Besides, if Lee Hyuk's mother...

“Let's see. ”

Seo Ah-young smiled.

“Whether I'm afraid of the Demon King or my mother. ”

Lee Hyuk tilted his head.

“That's a little confusing. ”
