Chapter 34 – 05. Topical People
05. Topical human
The faint sound of cooking utensils.
It was a long-awaited gathering together for a meal, but there was only silence.
After Ryu Si-hwan and Yu-ina’s shocking marriage contract, those who observed it decided to have breakfast together.
It is a kind of commemoration.
In place of Yuina’s half-sitting mansion, the Prime Minister gave her a house.
“Five. This is delicious.”
“It certainly is. I will save the recipe.”
“The meals at the inn and those eaten at Yuina’s house were quite good, but this place is really delicious. Do you want to come over often?”
While everyone was eating in silence, if there were people who were the only ones who opened their mouths, it was Ryu Si-hwan and Bari.
Although Bari has living tissue, it is a machine, and this analog meal was unnecessary, but the ‘taste’ existed.
It was because in order to serve Sihwan the perfect dish, he had to be able to taste it.
It definitely tastes good for her to eat like that.
The food served by the Instructor General deserves to be evaluated as excellent.
“…… As the landlord, I appreciate the compliment, but I would like you to refrain from visiting.”
“Okay? It’s a pity.”
This arrogant and ignorant person is coming to play?
Ha Yeon-seo immediately refused because of that terrible thought, but Si-hwan didn’t care.
It was just an empty remark related to Korean food, and he had no intention of going to the Instructor General’s house to eat something.
“But it is really strange. His behavior and way of speaking are bizarre and meaningless, but his manner of eating isn’t that ugly… Are you from human aristocracy?”
Ryu Si-hwan, Bari, and even the Instructor General opened their mouths and the atmosphere opened up.
She is one of Yoo Tae-hee’s daughters, and was Yu Ha-ri, a genius who was recently crowned ‘Rosa Crava’.
Since it is a 『Noblesse』 With a long lifespan, she will be able to reach it someday, but she is receiving praise from all directions because she reached it before she even turned 1,000 years old.
Even in the Yoo family, he is regarded as a genius following the footsteps of the head of the family, Yoo Tae-hee.
The reason she came all this way is because her younger sister Yuhana’s daughter is Yuina.
“Mr. Yuhari, it is rude to say such things in person. No matter how true it is.”
The family head lightly gave a warning.
However, she did not deny that Sihwan was bizarre and had no concept.
Because that’s something that anyone here, or anyone who’s ever been through, can relate to.
“Ah yes. Sorry.”
I apologize lightly in an attitude of not being apologetic at all.
Taehee slightly rolled her eyes, but she ignored it.
“Nobility? You shouldn’t bring such trivial things to me.”
“Under! Oh yeah. Shocking. Cute.”
Yu Ha-ri was a member of the management committee responsible for managing the number of humans until recently.
For more than 100 years, it has been performing activities such as frequently visiting the human area outside the tower, collecting information, and threatening nobles and royalty in the human area.
Facts learned from him.
It was a fact that humans are not good at grasping subjects.
Even though the race itself had actually fallen to the level of slaves and pets of 『Advanced races』, The humans called nobles sighed as if they were chosen by some god, and some of them with no concept stiffened their necks even in front of her as a ‘trustee’. I used to
Of course, as soon as I showed my strength, I immediately lowered my head.
“But, seeing that my niece and I ended up getting married, you must be able in some way, right? It’s hard to believe that a mere human has the ability to be recognized by my mother… What can I do that it has already happened.”
She raised her wine glass and looked around at her people.
“Let’s have a toast. It’s a process anyway, the family has increased by one, should I do that much?”
“…… Okay. I was careless.”
Taehee nodded and raised her wine glass as well.
Then, Yuina’s mother and Sihwan’s mother-in-law Yuhana raised her glass with a sigh, and Yuina also raised her glass.
“No I… After… It won’t matter.”
Ha Yeon-seo said, “I’m not from the Yoo family… ‘ I wanted to say, but I didn’t want to break the atmosphere, so I shook my head and raised my glass.
Now, what is left is Ryu Si-hwan and Bari.
Again, the attention was focused on the two of them.
“Cheers… Not bad.”
Sihwan stood up from his seat without anyone saying anything.
“?”
Hari, who insisted on a toast, was a bit taken aback, and the women who raised their glasses all looked at him with question marks above his head.
It was as if he was asking ‘why are you awake?’.
“Wouldn’t world peace be out of place and too childish? Let’s just say it’s for prosperity and peace in moderation.”
Shamelessly deflecting those gazes, he jingled the contents of the glass and held it higher than her head.
“For eternal prosperity and peace!”
“For!”
Bari responded and started to swallow the wine with Sihwan.
Except for the two of them, everyone is silent.
It was difficult to accept the situation.
Usually, when it comes to a toast, the person with the highest share in the seat will do it. Even if there is a separate protagonist and the toast is handed over to him, it is usually the case that the person with the highest distribution gets permission or he directly recommends it.
However, Ryu Si-hwan got up casually without anyone telling him to, and he finished the toast and was drinking well.
What is this absurdity?
How many incidents had there been that made his head ring like this in his hundreds of years of living?
“Ahahaha! Are you crazy, really? It must have turned!”
Ha-ri laughed deliciously at this freshness and said, “Yes, yes. Cheers.” She tipped her glass to her mouth.
Yoo Tae-hee, who seemed to be the representative runner with a cold face, burst into laughter without knowing it, then cleared her throat and tilted her glass in amazement.
At this point, let’s toast the rest according to the current trend.
In the end, it ended up being a match for Ryu Si-hwan’s absurd sudden toast, but there was no dislike.
+++
Clink!
“That, that… What kind of small talk is that….”
“… It is as you have heard.”
Area 5 (5th floor of the tower).
One of the great landowners here, the Jin family, had a boy who had just turned 30.
His name is ‘Jin Seong-hyeon’, and he was gifted with a talent for noble rings for a man.
Until last year, he trained at a military academy run by the Yu family, where he met his destiny.
That said, love at first sight.
He had thought of her as absurd, but the moment he saw her, he had no choice but to admit it.
It was love at first sight.
Since then, he has worked hard to be with Yuina.
For a man, he practiced exceptionally hard, coughing up blood to somehow catch up.
But….
Yuina was a top-notch prospect among women who were born in noble rings, and he was just a man who could not handle the talents of ordinary women.
Are the other parts great? It wasn’t really like that, and his family wasn’t as huge as the Yu family.
In the end, each time Yuina moved up her class by one, the distance with her grew, and at the end of her last year, when her Yuina went as an instructor at her first-floor academy, she completely broke up with her.
The sadness of parting.
In her mind, she wanted to be with her. I wanted to make memories together and propose marriage proudly later.
However, compared to her Yuina, her poor Noble ring output prevented her from taking up her academy instructor position, leading her to distance herself from her.
It was a hopeless situation, but he did not let go of hope.
Although they were in different classes, they were familiar with Yuina to some extent, and her face was familiar, so even though they broke up, the future is bright. Besides, the academy isn’t the only place on the first floor. Taking her other job and taking her slow approach might get her hands on her one day.
I thought so.
Until now.
“Yuna is getting married!! That’s ridiculous!! I’m thirty now!!!!”
“….”
At his shouting, the servant who was waiting on him bowed his head.
In my experience, it’s best to just keep your head down and stay still when the owner says this shit.
“It’s normal to get married after a thousand years or so!”
He couldn’t understand
Of course, if you are from a large family like the Yu family, you can get married at the age of 500 through an arranged marriage, but even so, it is too early.
Now you’re 30 and you’re married?
“I can’t admit… I can’t admit it!”
“…… I’m embarrassed, but… It’s already been decided-“
“Shut up!!”
Unable to see, the servant who finally opened his mouth fell off his head.
Even though he committed suicide casually, he did not feel any remorse.
“Mother! Mother!!”
She immediately ran to where her mother was and opened the door.
“After… Did you hear it too?”
As usual, she let out a sigh but didn’t blame it.
“What the hell is this!!”
“What more explanation do you need? Yoo Ina, the granddaughter of the Yu family, got married. That’s it. I knew that you had her in her heart, but it was a relationship that couldn’t be done with her in the first place. It just made it clear.”
“What are you talking about! There was still plenty of time left, and it could have been possible if I had tried!”
“That is your idea. Anyway, this is over now. At this point, think about something appropriate for your age. What is marriage at that age? If you want to date like that, let me introduce you to my true children.”
“No need!!”
He cockily turned his back, slammed the door, and left the room.
I heard a sigh through the door, but I didn’t have time to pay attention.
I even thought of going straight down to Area 1, but then I had a sudden thought.
‘Who is it? Her husband.’
Okay.
Who the hell is the man who took her in her thirties? Who was it that married her at such an early age?
“Mother!”
“….”
He opened the door again.
Still she was sighing.
“Who are you! The bastard who took her from her!!”
“…… As for that… I’m also a bit curious… First of all, it is a person named ‘Ryu Si-hwan’.”
“Ryu… Sihwan? Never heard of it. You’re not even a member of the Five Greats, so who the hell are you?”
“How do I know? Not even a day has passed wait a little bit slower It’s because I have no patience. Tsk tsk tsk.”
“Keugh….”
My heart ached.
Losing it like this
“I can’t stand it… At least… At least look at his face his!”
“Crazy man, do it in moderation. What do you think will happen if you go?”
“You still have to see it!!”
He stormed out of the room again.
“That stupid bastard!”
There is no such thing as a waste if you visit and play a joke.
Compared to the Yu family, the Jin family was insignificant, lacking in strength and financial resources, so the moment they were out of sight, they would disappear.
“General!”
“Did you call?”
“Follow him and stop him so he doesn’t do anything stupid.”
“… Would you rather stop me from leaving?”
“Are you the kind of person who would stay quiet like that? If you block him, he’ll sneak out. It’s better to leave the face so that we can see it, and bring it back if the situation arises.”
“All right.”
After the commander-in-chief left, she let out a deep sigh.
Her heart broke at the sight of her cute child being so immature.
‘Still, it’s better. It would be nice to realize this now. That there are things the world can’t achieve.’
