Episode 99.
“Wow!!”
Seo-ah’s small mouth opened wide.
Her wide-open eyes were fixed on her new home and she had no intention of leaving.
By Hephaestus’ standards, it was a ‘cozy home’, but that was only by Hephaestus’ standards.
By real world standards, it could never be described as cozy.
“It looks really expensive!”
Seo-ah shouted with an expression of disbelief.
But it looks expensive.
Of course, it was an expression meaning that it was that good.
And the house seemed expensive.
But still, it is like that.
Aren’t there expressions like pretty and cool?
Or it’s grand, it’s majestic.
At least an exclamation of “crazy” would have been okay.
Of all the expressions, why does it look expensive?
“I think it will exceed 10 billion!!”
… Ah, that’s enough.
Siwoo shook his head from side to side.
Could it be because of the poor environment in which we lived?
In Seo-ah’s worldview, that would probably be the best expression.
“Can I come inside?”
“Why are you asking such a thing? This is our house to live in now.”
Seo-ah smiled brightly at Si-woo’s answer.
After a while, he quickly walked inside.
Followed by Wal!
Heukdol followed Seoah in.
“The password is the same as before─.”
Tiring!
Before he could finish speaking, the sound of the door opening was heard.
Siwoo chuckled and went into the house together.
“Waaa …
As soon as I entered inside, I heard Seo-ah’s exclamation.
Seo-ah was looking around the house, turning her head from time to time.
If you keep doing that, you might break your neck.
Siwoo said with a small smile.
“Do you like it?”
“I really like this! Is this really my house? Really?”
Seo-ah shook her head again, not knowing what to do!
He looked around the house with his bright eyes.
“It feels like I’ve come to a fairy tale land!”
Wow!
Heukdol also barked energetically as if he agreed with Seoah’s words.
After a while, Seo-ah raised her head and looked up at the ceiling.
The turtle dragon shell was finished like marble, creating an antique atmosphere.
“Look at the ceiling! It’s so high!”
Seo-ah raised her hands above her head, making an expression that made her look taller than herself.
“The living room is also very spacious!
This time, he spread his hands wide to the left and right and turned his head around.
“There are so many rooms!!”
And he expressed his feeling of having a lot by waving his two outstretched hands wildly.
Finally, he turned his head towards Siwoo!
“It doesn’t feel like my home!!”
Seo-ah said with a bright smile.
I was as happy as a child receiving a Christmas present.
Siwoo burst into laughter without realizing it at the sight of Seoah like that.
The house is nicer than it used to be.
Do you really like it that much?
Well, if you think about it, it makes sense.
The existing house is about 11 pyeong in size.
But the new house was a whopping 70 pyeong (approximately 230 square meters).
Because of that, we had to buy all the surrounding land, which cost us even more money, but whatever.
“Hey, Blackie, our house is really nice, right?”
Wow!
It was an expense that I didn’t regret at all since Seo-A-Rang and Heuk-Dol liked it so much.
“Brother, brother. You said you were having a housewarming party, right?”
“Oh, yeah. I invited about 11 people….”
I couldn’t tell if they would all come or not.
Probably most of them won’t come?
“Let’s go then!”
“Shall we go? Where?”
“To buy ingredients to serve food to guests!”
“Seo-ah, are you planning on cooking it yourself?”
“Yeah! I said that housewarming is a treat given by the host.”
“Are you okay?”
Siwoo became a little worried.
It wasn’t because Seo-ah’s cooking wasn’t tasty.
Seo-ah was really good at cooking.
However, I was only worried about Seo-ah’s physical condition.
Preparing a housewarming party for 11 people was no easy task.
“It’s okay, I can do that much.”
But Seo-ah answered bravely.
Siwoo observed Seoah’s complexion.
Could it be because I have been receiving the best care in the special room?
‘It looks okay.’
Seo-ah was very lively.
His complexion was also ruddy, which made him look healthy.
Of course, it was a health issue that didn’t last long.
It wasn’t long before he lost his health again.
But at this very moment, life was flowing.
and.
“I think we need to develop a new herbal medicine soon.”
The skill of divine medicine (S+) selected by Kim Yi-jun.
There was no need to worry too much since the proficiency was as high as 45.81%.
More than anything, doesn’t Seo-ah want to do that?
Just this once is okay.
“Okay, then.”
“Let’s go quickly, oppa!”
Seo-ah took Si-woo’s hand and led him.
Then suddenly.
“Heukdol-ah! Our Heukdol-ah, let’s go together!”
Wow!
The black stone followed me, wagging its tail fiercely.
* * *
The top floor of a hotel in Seoul.
Pandemonium’s scar-level executive, Oh Ju-won.
“Maeng Si-woo.”
A name came out of Oh Ju-won’s mouth.
The being that turned the Seoul area into a pandemonium.
In addition, he is the one who uprooted the entire underworld in the Seoul area.
So, there is a being with the utmost presumption who warns Pandemonium.
And now.
“Maeng Si-woo.”
Oh Ju-won repeated the name once again.
It was a plan to mass-produce none other than illegal awakened people.
A plan that had been painstakingly prepared for several years and was now in the final stages.
But a while ago.
The plan was completely foiled.
The key figure in the plan, Do Yeop-cheol, was killed by an unknown person.
No, it was embarrassing to even say he died.
The very existence has been annihilated.
Related research has also been completely lost.
And so the name comes to mind again.
“Maeng Si-woo.”
A cold anger appeared in Oh Ju-won’s eyes.
Oh Ju-won said, turning his head slightly back.
“Where is Maeng Si-woo?”
“I figured it out, though.”
A softly heard answer.
Oh Ju-won turned his gaze forward again.
And then boom.
“Give me guidance.”
“…yes?”
I sensed a look of confusion coming from behind.
“Are you saying that the branch manager himself will step forward?”
Oh Ju-won did not answer.
I just slowly got up from my seat.
“Hey, branch manager! If you step forward yourself, the inspector will notice! It’s too dangerous─.”
“It’s the second time.”
Oh Ju-won said coldly.
A gaze that looks upon.
There was a chilling atmosphere permeating it.
“This is the second time I’ve heard the name Maeng Si-woo.”
Oh Ju-won walked with a thump.
“Give me guidance.”
Pandemonium, a criminal organization that has taken control of the underworld.
As a scar-level executive, Oh Ju-won had no reason to get involved in such petty matters.
Above all, the director of the inspection bureau, Baek Seon-je, is chasing him.
There was also a reason why I couldn’t move rashly.
As expected, I had to be careful with my words and actions.
But not this time.
second.
This is unacceptable.
It cannot be tolerated.
“Guide me.”
There was anger in the voice that Oh Ju-won let out.
And right then.
“Please leave it to me, Branch Manager.”
Someone told Oh Ju-won.
A man with a snake-like appearance.
Level 5 executive rank in Pandemonium.
Cuts, fractures, ruptures, scars, wounds.
Among them, the fracture-level executive, Jo Buk-cheon.
“Why would you use an ogre-slaying sword to kill orcs?”
Cho Buk-cheon said with a bitter smile.
Oh Ju-won quietly looked at Jo Buk-cheon.
But soon.
“He’s not the kind of guy you should be dealing with.”
Oh Ju-won walked past Jo Buk-cheon.
Maeng Si-woo.
A name that Oh Ju-won heard twice.
Moreover, he is the one who warned against Pandemonium.
This is truly an incredibly presumptuous act.
But there is a reason for that arrogance.
“I have no intention of acting recklessly. I will handle it myself.”
“If the branch manager says so, I will step down.”
but.
“It seems there is a problem with the church.”
The following words from Cho Buk-cheon.
Oh Ju-won’s footsteps suddenly stopped.
“What does that mean?”
“Well, the hunting dogs of the inspection department have a very good sense of smell.”
Jo Buk-cheon showed a bitter smile.
That moment.
Kwaaaa …
An indescribable power burst out from Oh Ju-won’s entire body.
The murderous intent to crush and kill someone with just momentum.
“I will only forgive the pun this once.”
“Ugh! I’m, I’m sorry…!”
Jo Buk-cheon hurriedly lowered his head.
Only then did Oh Ju-won gain momentum.
Knock knock knock!
Jo Buk-cheon coughed a few times and then slowly opened his mouth.
“It seems that the movement of the religious order has become excessive in search of a suitable human being as a sacrifice for resurrection. That person… Kolok! Baek Seon-je has caught him.”
Jo Buk-cheon calmed his rough breathing.
Oh Ju-won blurted out the words with an indifferent expression.
“How far has Baekseonje found it?”
“We have found the headquarters of the religious order.”
“Did you send it?”
“Actually, the headquarters of the religious order is currently under attack by the guards of the regional investigation unit of the Inspection Bureau. That is why I came to see you, branch manager.”
Oh Ju-won didn’t give any answer.
The Cult of Pandemonium.
In fact, it’s just a sect.
The role I was assigned to was similar to that of a research lab.
And the work being prepared in such a church.
That was a very important task within Pandemonium.
The plan to cultivate illegal awakeners was nothing more than a bridgehead for this purpose.
A stepping stone to successfully carry out this task.
But such religious groups are under attack by the sectarians.
That goes for the guards of the metropolitan investigation unit too.
The metropolitan investigation unit is an investigation unit directly under the director of the inspection bureau, Baek Seon-je.
That means.
“The religious community also tried to stop it somehow, but Baek Seon-je stepped in….”
This was something that could never be tolerated.
This matter was so important that even the Red Shadow was keeping an eye on it.
The ruler of Pandemonium, the Red Shadow.
“The only person who can stop the Baekseonje is the branch manager….”
Oh Ju-won calmly lowered his gaze.
A moment of thought.
Oh Ju-won slowly opened his mouth.
“Myungji Gwangdo was hit by that guy. Can you do it?”
“I feel sorry for comparing Myeongji Gwang and me.”
Cut-level executive, Myung Ji-kwang.
Fracture-level executive, Cho Buk-cheon.
Even if you just look at the steps, Jo Buk-cheon is one step ahead of Myeong Ji-kwang.
“Just leave it to me.”
Cho Buk-cheon showed a snake-like, vicious smile.
* * *
Time passes and it is the day of the housewarming party.
“What have you done so much for?”
Siwoo opened his eyes wide at the sight of the extravagantly presented food.
I’m worried that my legs will bend or even break.
There were so many that I just naturally thought that.
“You invited me for 11 minutes. Then you should do this much.”
“You said that up to 11 people can come, but that doesn’t mean that all 11 will come. And even if all 11 people come, isn’t that too many?”
“Hey, it’s better than not having enough.”
Seo-ah continued cooking while saying that.
I wonder why a kid who can’t even eat well has such big hands.
Besides that, is there another dish that will come out here?
Siwoo wondered if he could eat all of this.
That would be the case, considering the food on the table right now.
Starting with boiled pork and braised short ribs.
Stir-fried sea squirts and fried shrimp.
Sausage and vegetable stir-fry, fried tofu sushi.
Spicy stir-fried vegetables and smoked duck.
Of course, various vegetable dishes.
“What’s this?”
“Huh? Oh, gambas al ajillo.”
“Gambas al… what?”
“Gambas al ajillo. Shrimp and garlic stewed in olive oil? That kind of dish. They say it tastes good with baguette bread.”
Perhaps that is why there was also a baguette sliced into bite-size pieces.
“Have you ever tried it?”
“No. I’m trying it for the first time today.”
By the way, where did Seo-ah get to eat food like this?
To be exact, the food that Si-woo ate was the food that Seo-ah ate.
Siwoo picked up a baguette and dipped it in something he couldn’t tell if it was gambas or something else.
“how is it?”
“What’s the best?”
He said it was a food he had never eaten before.
As expected, Seo-ah’s cooking skills were top-notch.
That moment.
Wow!
A black dog barked from under the bridge.
Panting while rubbing Siwoo’s leg.
“Can you give me a black stone too?”
Wow!
Black Rock barked with an expectant expression.
Siwoo hesitated a little at the sight of that black stone.
‘They say garlic is poisonous to dogs.’
I’ve heard that somewhere.
That’s why this gambas al something.
Can I give this dish of boiled shrimp and garlic?
But whatever.
‘It doesn’t matter.’
Black Wolf is the wolf that swallowed the world.
As you swallow the world, wouldn’t you also swallow up a lot of garlic fields?
But if you look at it, there is no problem.
Siwoo served bread and gambas in a small bowl.
Then do this and that.
Black Rock ate the gambas in an instant.
I wonder if the black stone suited his taste.
Heukdol-i licked his oily lips and showed a regretful expression.
“Give me more?”
Wow!
Black Rock came wagging his tail and barking.
but.
“No. Then what do you want the guests to eat?”
“Sorry, Heukdol. Seo-ah said it’s not possible.”
Squeak─.
Black Rock quickly became sullen.
“I’ll do it separately for Heukdol.”
But Seo-ah’s words continued.
Wow!
It was a black stone that quickly became bright as if nothing had happened.
“Brother, when are the guests coming?”
“Well, I told you to come at lunchtime, so shouldn’t you be here soon?”
It’s about time to come now─.
Right then.
Tiring!
A warning notification window appeared on the smartphone screen.
An alarm that notifies you of an intruder.
It was an alarm that detected and notified unregistered entities.
When an intruder comes, a notification window pops up, linked to GotTube’s smartphone.
It was originally intended to be linked to a real smartphone.
Only then will Seo-A be able to check the alert.
But this technology is God’s Metallurgy (SS).
It was beyond the understanding of human science and technology.
So it didn’t connect to a real smartphone.
It was only possible to connect to GodTube’s smartphone.
Well, anyway.
This alert means one thing.
“I guess you’re here now.”
Siwoo checked the first guest who arrived.
