00128 Temporary joining ———————————————– ————————–=
“It seems like you’ve been sighing a lot lately.”
As he rolled his eyes and sneered, Go Yeon-ju smiled slightly and nodded.
“Well, my head is a little confused.”
“When your head is spinning, it’s best to rest. “How about taking a break from work for a moment and changing your mood?”
“Oh my, are you really asking me out on a date? “He usually stays still even when I tease him like that.”
Before I knew it, she and I were raising our voices to each other again. Rather than dragging out the conversation for a long time, the idea was to slowly conclude the conversation. In other words, it was consistent with the fact that Ko Yeonju understood the intention of my words to some extent. I tapped her forehead for a moment (she frowned slightly at this time) and then answered in a calm voice.
“haha. In a way, it’s like asking for a date. I’m planning to go exploring outside the city again next month. How about we hold hands and go out together? “It’s good, I figured it out.”
Go Yeon-ju laughed at my words and shook her head.
“… To user Kim Soo-hyun, does dating mean holding hands, laughing, and swinging a sword at a monster?”
“It would be better than being stuck in an inn and living in despair.”
“I shouldn’t say anything. “How long do you think the period will be?”
“Three weeks.”
Ko Yeon-ju looked blank at my clear answer, then narrowed her eyes and opened her mouth.
“… Is there anything you can do to ruin the inn? “How much money did you spend building this?”
“It was ruined anyway. “Not many users come here except us.”
“… “Tch.”
She pursed her lips and turned her head, as if she had nothing to say to my direct response. As a side note, she was still with her head in my lap. Every time she turned her head from side to side, it was quite a burden for her. I turned her head back toward me and continued speaking again.
“I said it was good. Don’t worry too much. “It will be much more profitable than running an inn in this state for three weeks.”
“under. “I guess you’re planning on discovering at least one more dungeon.”
I responded to her grumbling with a natural look on my face.
“Oh. “How did you know?”
“… … .”
Go Yeon-ju looked at me blankly with an expression at a loss for words.
*
After meditating in the morning, I washed up and came out, and the inn was literally in chaos. By now, all the children, who would have been sleeping soundly, were awake and gathered on the first floor with anxious faces. As I trudged down the stairs, I saw all the eyes of my companions focused on me.
“Oh, brother.”
“Yes, Sol. Why.”
“We’re in big trouble! “The inn is closing.”
“… Phew.”
I burst out laughing at Ansol’s words.
Anhyeon and Yujeong’s faces were quite messy, but Ansol’s was relatively clean. He probably woke up early for the first time in a long time and came down to the first floor, and he seemed surprised to see Go Yeon-ju’s behavior. So she must have urgently woken up her companions. And when I was out of sight, he would have woken up the other party members by saying it was a chicken instead of a pheasant. I scratched my head at her actions, which I could picture at a glance, and calmly took my seat.
“ah… Seed. brother. “Have you heard anything from the innkeeper?”
Yujeong plopped her butt down next to me with a mischievous look in her eyes. She probably felt uncomfortable waking up in the middle of her sleep. When I didn’t respond, she gently rested her head on my shoulder. As she lightly stroked Yujeong’s hair, her expression seemed to relax a little.
Anhyeon was just turning her head here and there with a blank face, and Ansol was stamping his feet with a restless look on his face. (I never thought that the reason for my nervousness was Yujeong’s head resting on my shoulder.)
Hayeon and Shin Sang-yong sat quietly at the table. Perhaps something had changed about what happened last night.
Soon, the inn’s door creaked open and a familiar user appeared. Go Yeon-ju closed the open door and trudged towards me. Finally, as I watched Go Yeon-joo stand quietly in front of me, I opened her mouth in a quiet voice.
“You’ve been working hard since early in the morning.”
“yes. Thanks to someone. So shamefully… . phew. Anyway, there is a saying that you should remove the horns of an ox as soon as possible. Well, it’s been a little annoying these days. “It’s both a business and a business.”
It seemed like he was saying it was shameful that he had bargained for his life last night. Her words were full of thorns, but I shrugged her shoulders and continued.
“Then you should have told me in advance. “Please give me a refund for the remaining days immediately.”
At my words, Go Yeon-ju bit her lip and glared at me sharply.
“joy. It looks like everyone in the group has gathered, so let’s eat breakfast. “What are you going to eat?”
“Same as always. Course A, 7 servings.”
“Course A, 8 servings. “I don’t even know what to say?”
She poked me once in the chest and went straight into the kitchen. And the kids who were quietly listening to her conversation with me asked questions with expressions on their faces that they didn’t understand. However, Shin Sang-yong had a serious expression on his face and spoke to me in a low voice.
“leader.”
“yes.”
“You seem to be very resourceful.”
“haha… .”
When Hayeon let out a clumsy laugh, Hayeon, who had been silent until then, covered her mouth with one hand and was shocked.
“Su-hyun… Seed. No way, her her her… .”
“no. “We made a deal.”
“Deal?”
Hayeon asked back with a suspicious look on her face. I nodded once, looked at the kids who were still standing, and motioned for them to sit down on the chairs. Anhyun, who was just tilting her head with a blank face, and Ansol, who was looking at Yujeong with a dissatisfied look, saw my signal and quickly sat down on the chair.
“I cannot tell you the details of the transaction yet. However, she decided to close the inn for at least three weeks. The apparent reason is that business is not doing well.”
Everyone in my group seemed to agree with what I said. Apparently, they didn’t see any users at the inn these days. I continued speaking like that.
“And during that time she decided to be part of our caravan. As a 5-year user, I think it will be of great help to my caravan. She’ll keep it brief for now, but we’ll talk about the details when she gets back. Does she have any questions?”
Vivien immediately raised her hand at my words. I nodded once, allowing her to ask questions.
“Kim Soohyun. Of course, since you received it, you may have your own thoughts, but I have one concern.”
“What are you worried about?”
When I asked, Vivien looked around at the group before continuing.
“You said more than three weeks, so I guess we can take that user on the next expedition?”
“I guess so.”
“So even though the user has been using it for 5 years, will he be able to integrate well into our caravan? I’m a user who acts like an inn owner… . “To be honest, I’m a little anxious.”
Hayeon and Shin Sang-yong smiled at the same time at Vivien’s words. But Vivien’s thoughts were not entirely out of the ordinary. Although she adapted to the modern Holplane in her own way after turning into a human, she was sometimes confused with the ancient Holplane.
I clicked my tongue and opened my mouth, looking at everyone.
“phew. Vivien.”
“ok.”
“If you can get the upper hand on that female user for more than 10 minutes, I will never bother you again.”
“Yes?”
“yes?”
“what?”
“uh.”
Vivien, Ansol, Lee Yoo-jeong, and Anhyeon exclaimed in turn. Although Hayeon was new, Vivien was still the second person in the caravan no matter what anyone said. Of course, her usual fierce personality prevents her from showing off her second-tier strength, but the moment she enters the actual expedition, she always shows off her skills without regret.
However, everyone seemed surprised because I judged the inn owner to be superior to Vivian.
In my honest opinion, Vivian is also good, but she was not a match for Ko Yeon-joo, who reached the top 10. Even if he summoned the 1st corps, the best corps, Go Yeon-ju also had a special ability
Anyway, if Go Yeon-ju and Vivien fight, it will end in a landslide victory for Go Yeon-ju. That’s why I spoke in a confident voice.
“I can assure you of her skills. “How are you, Vivian?”
Vivien’s face turned red at my words, and then she lowered her head and answered.
“Well, I don’t like that.”
“huh?”
“Well, I don’t like that.”
“ruler. So next question?”
I quickly changed the topic after Vivien’s refusal, which had dangerous implications. I hope the other party members didn’t hear anything. Fortunately, Yoo-jeong remembers the day she first came to Mule and said, “Okay…” It was definitely strange back then… .” He was muttering. An Hyun and An Sol were looking at each other with blank faces, and Shin Sang-yong kept turning his head to see when Go Yeon-ju would come. However, he couldn’t tell what Ha-yeon was thinking because she had her eyes closed.
I was also somewhat surprised by Go Yeon-ju’s behavior. I thought it would take some time after speaking, but surprisingly, she had a hot side. Ah, it would be a bit surprising to say that.
At that moment, I heard Go Yeon-ju pushing a cart from the kitchen. Only then did Ahn Hyeon come to his senses, opened his eyes and quickly got up from the chair.
“Tongue, bro. “I’ll take a shower and then come back.”
“Why don’t you eat and take a shower?”
“Oh, no. “I’ll come back quickly.”
Anhyeon quickly climbed the stairs without even listening to my answer. I clicked my tongue at Anhyeon, who seemed to be faster than ever, and waited for the morning with a refreshing feeling.
Soon, Go Yeon-ju came in, pushing the cart right in front of us, and calmly set up the food she had brought, then sat down on the remaining seat. She looked around at her companions with her indifferent face, and then opened her mouth to Ansol, who glanced at her.
“Hello baby. “Where did your brother go?”
“that… for a moment… To wash… .”
As Ansol hesitantly answered, Go Yeon-ju listened even harder as if he couldn’t hear.
“huh? what? “Please speak louder.”
“Hey… .”
As expected, Ansol, who was extremely shy, pouted his lips and asked for my help. Yujeong sighed as she looked at Ansol and immediately opened her mouth.
“He went to wash up.”
“aha… cute. Anyway, user Kim Soo-hyun. “Have you already said something about me?”
“To some extent. Would you like to do the rest yourself now?”
“Anyway, you will figure it out automatically as you go along. I’ll do it later when we’re all together after dinner. First of all, listen up. “It tastes better when you eat it while it’s warm.”
Go Yeon-ju shook her head excitedly at my words. Compared to yesterday, she was definitely looking calmer. Her clothes were dressed modestly again, and her expression was as gentle as usual.
It was such a high performance that even though I told them to eat gently, no one lifted a spoon. As she turned her gaze to her strange face, her companions were all just looking at my face.
I sighed, picked up my spoon, and lightly ate a spoonful of soup. And only after I ate one spoonful did my companions start eating. Go Yeon-ju, who saw them, also started eating calmly, but it was clear that she was suppressing a smile as her mouth twitched. I promised myself that I would definitely eradicate this bad habit sooner or later, and I slightly resented Yu-jeong (because she was the main culprit who started this bad habit).
A little time passed and I heard the sound of Ahn Hyeon coming down the stairs from upstairs. The water was still clearly visible on my face, and it looked like I had just hurriedly doused it with water. Eventually, the sound of people rushing down the stairs gradually quieted down on the first floor, and soon the sound of measured steps echoed through the lobby.
Ahn Hyeon, who passed through the lobby and came to the table where we were sitting, looked surprised when he saw Ko Yeon-ju. She said and she immediately opened her mouth in a polite voice.
“Oh. “You’re eating together today.”
“yes. “That’s how it happened.”
When Go Yeon-ju answered with a pretty smile, Ahn Hyeon slightly lowered his head and continued speaking.
“It is an honor to meet you like this. My name is Ahn Hyeon, a user with 0 years of experience. What is your job… “I’m using a window.”
An Hyeon’s face was full of pride. Yujeong was in the middle of making her stew when she looked upset, and even though Ansol was her own brother, her attitude of pretending not to notice was clear. Go Yeon-ju laughed, covering her mouth as if everyone’s reactions were funny, and then answered in a languid tone.
“nice to meet you. It is said to be a high performance from a 5-year user. My job is… “She is the Shadow Queen.”
“Oh, so… .”
“Puuup!”
At that moment, Ansol, who was drinking water, violently spit out what was in his mouth.
I don’t know where I heard it, but as expected, An Sol was an honor student.
