Chapter 255 – Ending (2)
Before using my new ability in earnest, I first calmed my mother down and explained the situation. Before going back to another world and understanding the situation, the priority is to reassure my mother.
“What?”
The expression on my mother’s face when she heard my explanation for the first time was literally shock, fear, and confusion. The transfer to another world that only appeared in the novels my mother read usually involved taking a true bride and living happily ever after.
“Do you have another daughter-in-law?”
The mother, who had broken down while trying to call her father to tell him the good news, stopped for a moment, clutching her smartphone, and began to take a deep breath. From the perspective of a 21st century Korean, polygamy may not have been easy to tolerate, but my mother still smiled and applauded.
“Well, it doesn’t matter…? The ability is good, ugh. Well… I heard people in the past also had two grandmothers… So if you don’t put them on the family register…”
“…”
Of course, they seemed to have misunderstood what I said and thought it was only ‘two people’, so I said it a little more clearly. There are not two, but five, and there are already three children.
“Do you have a child?”
Her mother, who had suddenly become a grandmother in her early to mid-50s, could not stand it any longer and collapsed on her sofa and fainted. If she were a middle-aged woman living in the age of 100, it would be safe to say that turning 50 was a new beginning, but she seemed shocked to find that she had already started an unexpectedly large family. Fortunately, Helen’s ability allowed her blood to circulate smoothly, allowing her to quickly regain consciousness, but I think that may have been an evil effect.
“Baby, baby… Three…”
Her mother immediately fainted again, and Helen looked at me as if asking if she should wake her mother again, and she laughed.
… Of course, I couldn’t laugh. Wouldn’t it have been more comfortable if I had fainted and collapsed?
————————————
Her skills were simple and clear. You can create a transmission as you wish, and as you enter it, as soon as you think of someone, the destination appears. A message sent to the person I want…
There is no limit to the number of people using the transfer door, and you can take whoever you want with you.
In the first transmission I attempted, I thought of my children and saw a house on the Demon Continent. A transmission gate was created in the very center of the yard, and the body escaped through it. Thanks to this, Karin and Karen, who happened to be playing in the yard, were so startled that they fell flat on their stomachs and raised their tails.
“Apppa?”
Of course, as soon as they realized it was me, the two immediately calmed down and ran away with bright smiles,
“Who is the lady next to me?”
It was quite difficult to answer that clear question.
No, let’s just say they’re kids.
I wonder how my sisters, who were waiting for me with serious expressions inside the house, would have reacted as soon as they saw Helen.
That day, the house in the Demon Continent was completely destroyed without leaving a trace, and we had no choice but to hold hands and head to our apartment in Seoul, having nowhere to go.
“Father, five wives, no, six… Three children…”
As soon as her mother saw her family, she fainted again. It would have been better for her to just pass out and let her sleep for a while. Helen looked a bit ordinary, but how big of a shock it must have been to see her with dark skin, an old bandit leader, beasts with tails and ears, and two witches.
Anyway, the problem is not hypotensive fainting caused by the mother’s psychological shock, but that there is no place to go right now.
More than ten people suddenly gathered in a mid- to low-priced apartment that was perfect for three people to live in…
When the house collapsed, my dad was kicked out without being able to move and was left with no choice but to sleep alone in the sauna, but Rico came up with a good idea.
“Wait a minute. What was the name of the dark elf prince back then? If you make a transmission while thinking of him, you’ll take it that way, right?”
Isn’t there a friend in the opening scene who has achieved success and whose life is completely different from ours?
——————————————
“Hmm.”
A transmission door was created in the exact center of the bedroom, and numerous windows were aimed at it,
“Wait a minute! Wait a minute! It’s me!”
“Hoo.”
Still remembering my voice, he smiled brightly, jumped down on his bare feet, and squeezed my hand.
“Everyone, put away your spears! You got here pretty quickly, buddy.”
“It’s been a long time.”
It was a cool outfit that I still couldn’t get used to. Maybe it’s because they’re clothes you wear to bed, but stockings that look like particularly soft silk…? Clothes with a feeling…? It was. Actually, I don’t know either. I think it would be better to ask yourself later. Even though we are the same man, I feel like I have no place to focus…?
“Are you having a child?”
“Oh, that’s right. I was born on the Demon Continent. Guys, should we say hello first?”
He looked at his daughters with eyes full of curiosity, and his sincere interest was evident. He seems to find me really fascinating.
“Hello!”
“No!”
“…”
Karin and Karen, who were very friendly, rushed over to shake his hand, but Rika, who was particularly shy, hid behind her mother and stuck her head out. I couldn’t believe how on earth such a well-behaved child came out of Rico’s stomach.
Anyway, he graciously allowed me and his family to stay. Needless to say, there was a grand celebration. The news that a peaceful agreement had been made with the Demon King was a bonus, and we were at the center of the party as warriors and his friends.
“And I have erected a statue in advance. However, since they are true warriors, one or two will not be enough. I will erect a statue as big as the World Tree in the center of Mudriel.”
“Oh! Frostbite! Thank you!”
Even though it doesn’t seem like we’ve achieved anything in particular, we were surprised that they treated us like heroes. I thought it was Kaede’s childish request, but I think it was probably a pretty useful self-PR.
And I forgot to write it above, but her mom and dad also went to Nito Crio’s palace. I thought it would be better to see things in person rather than tell them what happened in this world, and I wanted to treat them a little bit for the two of them who had suffered because of me.
“Um… Is she your wife too?”
“No, he’s a man…”
When his mother saw him, she seemed anxious, wondering if he had another secret wife, but she soon seemed to relax a lot after seeing the inside of the magnificent palace and the atmosphere of this world. These two have never even been to a hotel buffet in their lives. After being treated so grandly by Nitocrio and the dark elves, it seemed like he didn’t know what to do, but he soon became so excited that he felt like he was on a honeymoon.
“Ah! I was wondering how this pale-faced little girl would feed all her children, but I was worried for no reason.”
… I think things got better because my practical concerns were resolved.
Anyway, I told them a story about another world, and to Nitocrio and my sisters, I told them a story about Earth and Seoul. Since both sides had already experienced many strange things, they didn’t say that they didn’t believe what I was saying. On the contrary, I was dizzy because there were so many things we were curious about.
And in fact, from the perspective of the people of this world, there was no part of Earth’s story that was unbelievable. But should I say that I felt a little pity for him? There was no mana, no magic… It just seemed to be accepted as a peaceful small town with slightly advanced science and technology, like on the Demon Continent. It would have been an even more strange story for the sisters who had already experienced the Demon Continent.
The more we talked, the more shocked my mom and dad were. At least her father had seen some comics and martial arts novels, so she seemed to understand, but her mother’s eyes widened every time she finished a sentence. He had already experienced my transmission ability, and it seemed like he was trying to understand it in his own way, but it must not have been easy to be denied all the knowledge and experiences he had lived his entire life.
Still, Mom laughed.
“Well, anyway, I came back healthy!”
I laughed so sincerely.
I smiled like a child, as if all the sadness and resentment had disappeared like melting snow in the warmth of the desert.
——————————————————–
That night,
At a time when most people are happily drunk and singing under the moon,
I was fiddling with my wrist and thinking a little more about God and my abilities.
“Now you two are talking together. So, what are you doing alone?”
“Oh, I’m just… Curious.”
Nitocrio came and sat next to me. It wasn’t very pleasant to see the eyes of some of the elite guards guarding him focused on me, but it was nice to be able to talk to him.
“What are you curious about, friend?”
“I wonder what this new ability has to do with the wish I made.”
“Ah, I said I got it by confronting God.”
“That’s right.”
As a result of my wish for everyone to be happy, God gave me new abilities. Live happily and say thank you…
“I didn’t say anything else. I just gave him this and left.”
“Okay.”
He grabbed my wrist, looked at it, and smiled. He is always intelligent and wise, and I feel like his conversation with me is very interesting.
“That’s it.”
“What is it?”
“Love…”
He spoke briefly while looking at the words of protection that I couldn’t read with my head.
“It’s love, friend. It says so. To you, my beloved.”
