Chapter 690 - what is your dream

 

 

 

 

 

 

He scooped up the porridge with a mixing spoon and put it in his mouth.

 

I thought I had lost my appetite, but it was strangely overdone.

 

It seemed that this was also a food of the world, and it seemed to be hallucinating in the stomach.

 

'That's awful... … .’

 

The girl asked Yeonjeokha, who was eating porridge with her head tilted.

 

"why? Does it taste strange?”

 

At the first words, the eyes of the family all turned to Yeonjeokha.

 

Feeling burdened by people's stares, Yeonjeokha shook his head in an exaggerated motion.

 

"no! delicious! It's because it's been a long time since I've eaten it.”

 

Then people turned their heads.

 

I saw a child who cared about herself.

 

The child's family consisted of seven members: his grandparents, his parents, and three of his siblings.

 

How many of them can survive in a savior where wild beasts roam everywhere?

 

The child who met Yeon Jeok-ha's eyes blinked.

 

"why?"

 

“How old are you?”

 

“I am twelve.”

 

I was a little surprised that he married at a much older age than I thought.

 

He looked much younger than he was because he was small, but he was twelve years old!

 

“What is your dream?”

 

"yes?"

 

“What do you want to be?”

 

“Isn’t there anything like that?”

 

“Is there anything you want to be?”

 

"yes."

 

“Is there anything you want to do?”

 

“When I grow up, I will help at the restaurant.”

 

Her child's voice took on strength.

 

Yeonjeokha, who was shaking her head, asked as if to confirm.

 

“Is working in a restaurant your dream?”

 

“I will help!”

 

“Doesn’t that sound the same?”

 

“Isn’t it? It's just helping.”

 

When her child strongly denied it, she tilted her head in rebellion.

 

No matter how much you think about it, it sounds the same, but why do you deny it?

 

I don't know what's inside

 

Ashamed, he thriftly scraped the porridge from the bottom of the bowl.

 

This time the child asked.

 

“What is Uncle doing?”

 

"me?"

 

"yes."

 

"I am… … .”

 

It's time for Yeonjeokha to roll his head around properly.

 

Screams were heard in the distance.

 

The peaceful dinner time turned into a crucible of fear in an instant.

 

The middle-aged man put down the bowl of porridge and took out his old pike from his pack.

 

“Don’t panic, stay still. You are looking after the children like father, mother and housekeeper.”

 

“Are you sure you want to go there?”

 

The old man looked at his son with a worried face.

 

The old man felt resentful of his son, who would take out a dagger whenever he was at the military gate for a while.

 

"I'll just check what's going on. We need to be aware of what has appeared before we can prepare for it.”

 

The middle-aged man glanced at jeokha.

 

Before he could say anything, he jumped up.

 

“I will go with you.”

 

I'm curious about what's going on, but it's to ease the middle-aged man's worries.

 

How uncomfortable he would be if he left only a stranger with his family.

 

 

 

I walked through the dark shoulder to shoulder with a middle-aged man in a relationship.

 

A middle-aged man who was walking by knocking out tree branches with a javelin got lucky.

 

“This is also a relationship, so let’s say it’s a common name. I am Hwang Woo-yeon. He runs a small restaurant in Dumou County.”

 

"I'm asking you to get. There is nothing special to do.”

 

“Did you even study writing?”

 

Hwang Woo-yeon thought Yeon Jeok-ha was slender, so he was at the level of a literary master.

 

"Wouldn't you know if you sleep with a book? I am not the one reading it.”

 

“Whoops!”

 

Hwang Woo-yeon laughed.

 

He looks delicate, but I like the way he acts frankly and frankly.

 

“It seems that our oldest is bothering you, but thank you for accepting it.”

 

“The kid is smart.”

 

“Of the three children, it is true that he is the smartest. It's okay, but you can measure your acorn height.”

 

Hwang Woo-yeon had a face that was nothing special.

 

Then, in the darkness, another desperate scream rang out.

 

“Kwaaaak!”

 

If the first one was a woman, this time it was a man.

 

Yeonjeokha narrowed her eyes.

 

I don't know if it's a bandit or a beast, but it seems to be killing people all the time.

 

Either way, it was a disaster for the evacuees.

 

Deciding to quickly defeat the beast, he strode toward Hwang Woo-yeon.

 

"why… … .”

 

Before Hwang Woo-yeon could finish his words, the couple grabbed him and flew up.

 

One after another, he stepped on the tops of the trees like flat ground and ran.

 

Papa pat -.

 

He moved forward at a whopping ten feet (about 30 meters) at each step.

 

With a surprised face, Hwang Woo-yeon hugged Yeonjeok-ha by the waist.

 

After taking five steps, he fell to the ground.

 

Three bonfires that had lost their owners were burning roaring in a dark field.

 

This means that at least three families were present.

 

A hissing sound came from the edge of the dark forest, far from the light.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha and Hwang Woo-yeon walked towards the sound as if they were being led.

 

 

 

The two black bears, which had been eating people's intestines, turned their heads at the sudden movement.

 

An exclamation flowed from Hwang Woo-yeon's mouth when she saw the black bear the size of a house.

 

"omg! Geumsusan’s Black Worm?”

 

Geumsusan Mountain is about 100 li (about 40 km) from here.

 

To think that the black bear that lives there is coming all the way to eat people!

 

The two black bears just stared at the two newcomers.

 

It was as if he was contemplating, ‘What should I do with them?’.

 

The worry didn't last long.

 

To the Black Worms who tasted blood, the newcomer was just a fresh piece of meat.

 

“Ugh-!”

 

“Wow!”

 

The two black wolves shouted one after another as if in conversation - and slowly turned towards the new prey.

 

Surprised, Hwang Woo-yeon rolled up his short spear.

 

Then, belatedly remembering that Heukwoong was an iron-class beast, he hesitated and took a backward step.

 

At that time, Yeon Jeok-ha snapped his fingers, shouting, ‘Tao!’

 

Pee-!

 

A beam of light flew towards the black bears with the sound of the chilhyeongeum.

 

The light wrapped around the black bears and disappeared into the night sky.

 

At the same time, the two black bears who were standing in the middle of nowhere moved backwards helplessly.

 

sniff! coo-!

 

He nodded his head with a satisfied face.

 

Thanks to Gwangmyeongjincheon, the Cheondungeom was useful in many ways.

 

You can take it out and use it right away, so you don't have to carry a heavy sword.

 

As for size, there is nothing bigger than that, and nothing smaller than that.

 

What a useful sword this is.

 

Soon after, he turned his gaze to Hwang Woo-yeon.

 

“Uncle Hwang.”

 

"yes?"

 

With the answer, Hwang Woo-yeon lowered her eyes.

 

“You said you were running a restaurant, right?”

 

“Yes, yes.”

 

“Is there a part that can be used in Heukwoong? Whether it's something to eat, or something good for the body, I mean.”

 

“I can eat everything except the liver. Although there are parasites in meat, it is okay to eat it cooked. The best part of the body is the gallbladder. You can soak it in alcohol and eat it with alcohol.”

 

As the owner of the restaurant, information about Heukwoong came out one after another.

 

“Then take as much as you need. Black Worms ate people, so people should eat Black Worms equally.”

 

"yes."

 

Hwang Woo-yeon hurriedly approached Heuk-woong’s corpse.

 

I don't know if it's a joke or not, but the meat of the Black Woong was an essential nutrient for the refugees.

 

He pierced the stomach with a dagger, but the dagger ricocheted out.

 

Yeonjeokha approached him who was standing with a puzzled face.

 

"why? Are you not well?”

 

“Yes, the day does not go in.”

 

“Give me.”

 

Soon after, Hwang Woo-yeon's short spear tore the black bear's hide.

 

In the blink of an eye, the black bear's skin was tattered.

 

Hwang Woo-yeon was sorry for the ruined leather, but he did not open his mouth.

 

After a while, this time Hwang Woo-yeon stuck and scooped out the meat and gall for his family to eat.

 

It was a black bear the size of a house, so I took an armful of meat off it, but it didn't show.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha, who was carrying an armful of meat with Hwang Woo-yeon, hesitated.

 

“Why is that?”

 

“I have to tear off the skin of the remaining one so others can get the meat, right?”

 

“Yes, it is.”

 

Hwang Woo-yeon looked at Yeon Jeok-ha.

 

The skin of an iron-class beast was something ordinary people could not do.

 

“I’ll go and tear another one up and come back.”

 

Hwang Woo-yeon, who had a relationship, returned like lightning without even giving a chance to talk about leather.

 

 

 

When Yeon Jeok-ha and Hwang Woo-yeon returned, Hwang Woo-yeon's father, who had been waiting anxiously for him, grabbed his son and scolded him.

 

"Hey! Where are you running to? What will happen to your wife and children if you die! You irresponsible bastard! If you are old, you have to pay for your age! How long will I live doing what I want to do!”

 

“Daddy, your father is right. You made a hundred mistakes this time. If you go wrong, how are you telling your wife and children to live?”

 

At the scolding of the elderly parents, Hwang Woo-yeon lowered her head.

 

“Wrong. I will never do that again.”

 

Hwang Woo-yeon learned a lot from this incident.

 

His short spear was shamefully useless against Heukwoong.

 

If he hadn't been for Yeonjeokha, he would have been eaten by Heukwoong himself.

 

Knowing the beast's danger, he acted complacently for a moment.

 

When Hwang Woo-yeon admitted her wrongdoing, her elderly parents did not scold her anymore.

 

The typhoon passed and a calm came.

 

Hwang Woo-yeon's wife pointed to her meat and asked.

 

“By the way, where did you get the meat at midnight?”

 

"uh? Oh, this? I went and there was a bear. Brother Yeon is not an ordinary person. Just hit it once, so you die right away without even making a sound?”

 

“Is it bear meat?”

 

"uh."

 

Hwang Woo-yeon feared that his family would be surprised, so he referred to Heuk-woong, an iron-class beast, as a regular bear.

 

Hwang Woo-yeon's family thought so and didn't ask more.

 

Thinking that porridge was not enough for him, Hwang Woo-yeon kneaded Heuk-woong's meat.

 

He did not spare meat in cooking.

 

It's because I have to throw away the remaining meat anyway by tomorrow evening.

 

The smell of roasting meat spread everywhere.

 

People around me glanced at the unusual smell of meat, but no one came to beg. This is because it is in the early stages of evacuation, and no one has yet to starve to that extent.

 

Originally, bear meat is difficult to cook because of its distinctive fishy smell.

 

However, like the owner of the restaurant, Hwang Woo-yeon's bear dish was savory and sweet.

 

It is the time when a young man with a stomach filled with bear meat looks at the flickering flames with grim eyes.

 

The first one quietly approached and started talking.

 

"mister."

 

"huh?"

 

“Did you learn martial arts?”

 

“Why?”

 

“No, because the old man caught the bear. ”

 

“Yes, I learned. Are you okay?”

 

Then, the first one suddenly looked up at Yeonjeokha with eyes of envy.

 

Feeling burdened by that blatant gaze, Yeonjeokha slightly turned his upper body to the other side.

 

The first one spoke softly to the back of the jeokha head.

 

“This is a secret. When I grow up, I will learn martial arts like you.”

 

“You said you didn’t want to be anything before?”

 

"It's decided now."

 

“Oh, is that so? Was the bear meat that good?”

 

“Hehe, there is something like that.”

 

As the eldest laughed innocently, the younger siblings burst into laughter.

 

Suddenly, Menua came to mind.

 

Come to think of it, Hwang Woo-yeon's eldest was the same age as Menua.

 

“What is your name?”

 

“Seoyunyo.”

 

He took out a leather pouch containing a tip from his arms and held it out.

 

“Take it.”

 

"What's this?"

 

“Something good for the body. Keep it and eat it one by one. It will be of great help when you learn martial arts later.”

 

"thank you."

 

Seoyoon took the leather pouch she had received from Yeonjeokha and looked around.

 

"and! Smells good.”

 

Smell the delicate scent that flows out of your pocket, and your body feels light as if it will fly away.

 

He left Seoyoon, who was distracted by his pockets, and stood up.

 

Then Hwang Woo-yeon hurriedly approached and tried to see Yeon Jeok-ha off.

 

"That's Okay. It’s a place where your nose will touch you if you fall face down.”

 

It was not an exaggeration, but a fact, since Yeonjeokha's seat was ten paces away.

 

 

 

the next morning.

 

Feeling the strange feeling of being in love with him, he slowly opened his eyes and looked around him.

 

'huh?'

 

Hwang Woo-yeon and his family, who ate bear dishes together until late, were nowhere to be seen.

 

I felt somehow bitter.

 

We would have broken up in the morning anyway, so it would be nice if we could say hello.
