Chapter 19 – Sword Master (2)
We followed the sword master. As I followed Geomju out of the hotel, I saw a glossy black limousine.
In front of the car was a man wearing a black suit and sunglasses. When the male sword master approached, he greeted politely and opened the back door. When the man greeted us too, he greeted me in a daze.
When I entered the car, it was structured to face each other. When I went inside, I felt the sword master looking at me with a faint smile on his face. Lee Ji-ah sat next to me, and Kim Ha-rin sat across from Lee Ji-ah.
The chairs were soft. She also felt comfortable sitting in it. There’s a reason cars are expensive.
“It’s my first time riding a limousine.”
Lee Ji-ah was excited and looked around. Then she looked at Dayoon Nam, and she looked up.
“Can I take a picture?”
“Yes. You can take as many pictures as you like.”
With Nam Da-yoon’s permission, Lee Ji-ah was excited and started taking pictures of her. I was thirsty for no reason, so I grabbed a canteen next to me.
“Are you thirsty?”
“Yeah.”
“I have a drink, would you like a drink?”
“Do you have Coke Zero?”
Dayoon Nam hesitated.
“Coke Zero…?”
“Yes, isn’t there?”
I licked my lips at Dayoon Nam’s reaction. Coke Zero is one of my favorite drinks, but I can’t believe it’s not there. It’s my favorite drink. Well, since it’s minor than Coke, it’s natural, but…
“No, yes. No. Because it’s Siwoo’s favorite drink.”
“Okay?”
Did you say Nam Siwoo? To say he likes Coke Zero, he was a guy with a pretty good side.
By the way, while speaking respectfully to others, he was going back and forth between honorifics and short words toward me. I’m older than my previous life, so there’s nothing particularly uncomfortable about it…
Perhaps she was assigning me her lost brother from her old days. It may be inconvenient for some. But let’s limit ourselves.
‘It’s honey.’
It’s unpleasant to be honest, but are the sword master-class connections normal? It’s confirmed that I’m going to be the next highest ranked hero, and I’m a beauty, and I’m a beauty.
She opened a can of Coke Zero from the fridge in her car and handed it to me. A pleasant sound resounded in the car. I asked as she handed me her Coke Zero.
“But where are we going?”
Lee Ji-ah, who had been taking pictures for a while, asked Dayoon Nam.
“I’m heading to Cheongsikdang right now.”
I could feel Lee Ji-ah and Kim Ha-rin were surprised at the word Cheongsikdang. I was also surprised. Cheongsikdang was very famous.
In this world, as magic science developed, various fields were created, and there was magic that uses magic to improve taste.
Aka taste magic.
In the game, you can receive all kinds of buffs with just the act of eating, so players were interested in it in their own way, but it was a magic that everyone gave up because it was difficult to learn and not very effective.
I thought about that, and when all the characters in the game tasted the food with taste magic, everyone praised it.
And the person who runs Cheongsikdang is a person who specializes in cooking even in its own characteristics. He is a person who has evoked praise for touching the world with food alone.
I remember that her name was Lee Jang-geum. As the name suggests, it was a character inspired by Dae Jang Geum, famous for its food.
Another name for Cheongsikdang is a restaurant with heavenly taste. It was a difficult place to set foot in even after gaining some status within the game.
“Cheo, are you going to Cheongsikdang? Have you heard that it has heavenly taste?”
“Yeah.”
In response to Lee Ji-ah’s question, Dayoon Nam spoke briefly.
She said, “But can I go there right away? I was told that I had to call at least a month in advance even though I made a reservation and got a spot…”
She said, recalling the knowledge in the game. At my question, Dayoon Nam smiled and said,
“Janggeum and I… No, I’m friends.”
“Really? You’re amazing.”
She pretended to be solemn, but the corners of her mouth were itching. Anyone could see that he was willing to die for my praise.
“Come to think of it, you’ve always been respectful, so please speak comfortably.”
“That… Is that so?”
“Yes, we are more comfortable with that.”
Dayoon Nam hesitated at my words.
“Siwoo, or something. Siwoo’s sister is fine too.”
Come to think of it, Siwoo’s brother felt a bit out of place. So let’s compromise with Shiuya. Thinking so, I talked to Nam Da-yoon.
“Say, Siwoo.”
“Si, Siwoo.”
Nam Da-yoon was embarrassed by my words and called my name in a small voice.
“Yes. Please take good care of me, older sister.”
“Sister…?”
At my words, Dayoon Nam hesitated.
This. Was it too rude? It was the moment I was about to correct my words.
“Sister. La… I like it.”
She smiled and nodded her head to see if she liked the tone.
In fact, it is not a big deal to have an older sister or a younger brother, but if the subject is a person with whom it is difficult to form a human relationship, the story is different.
From the side, Lee Ji-ah was daebak, there was distance, and Kim Ha-rin looked at me with a surprised expression.
Dayoon Nam took out his cell phone and handed it to me.
“Can you take a number for me?”
“A number?”
“Could Siwoo have gone this far and pretended not to know?”
No way. I shook my head at her words.
The reason I hesitated was because of the gap between the woman I knew and the way she behaved.
Looking at that, I thought of Dayoon Nam in her game. She always has a calm expression on her face and hunts down villains. It was Nam Da-yoon who drew human relations with her honorific words. She is an existence that was not open to the capture route with two heroes.
Perhaps that is Nam Dayoon’s true personality.
I remembered her Nam Dayoon’s unique characteristics. Her unique characteristic sword sword. She had the ability to control the sword at will. Her character was what I needed.
‘Actually, I didn’t even expect it.’
Perhaps her attack is much easier than I thought.
***
We arrived at the restaurant. Cheongsikdang was written in Chinese characters on the gate, and the handwriting was so good that it was said to be Han Seokbong.
A man dressed as a samurai, like in historical dramas, stopped us.
“Have you made a reservation?”
“Yes. I made a reservation for Dayoon Nam and 3 other people.”
Dayoon Nam came to her group and said. The man’s eyes widened when he saw Dayoon Nam’s face, and then returned. He turned on the tablet for a moment and checked something on her.
“Yes. Dayoon Nam and three others. Confirmed.”
The man smiled and cleared the way, and we went inside.
“The atmosphere is not a joke~”
“I know.”
Lee Ji-ah murmured in admiration. I also nodded her head in agreement. Cheongsikdang was built like an old palace. Korean musical instruments such as gayageum and geomungo sounded, and each tree decoration was antique.
“Let me guide you.”
We were guided inside by a woman wearing a hanbok.
I glanced around and saw famous celebrities, actors, politicians, and heroes. Perhaps I wasn’t the only one observing them, but I felt intense gazes around me. Almost an amazing feeling.
At the same time, there was a figure approaching us from afar.
“Could you excuse me for a minute?”
A Westerner in a white suit, with golden curly hair and greasy eyes, greeted us. No, he looked straight at Nam Dayoon and said hello.
“The hero of the middle, Christian.”
“Is the author the younger brother of the Knight of the Sun?”
A roar was heard.
Knight of the Sun.
Gawain, a member of the Knights of the Round Table, was created through strict selection in England.
Christian is a middle-class hero who is called the real among heroes. He is and he is the younger brother of a prized hero who is not even 1,000 in the world.
In other words, with a confident expression that has the three elements of a good background, good looks, and outstanding abilities, he tries to hit Dayoon Nam.
“It’s great because you know it’s rude. Please don’t be rude next time.”
Nam Da-yoon ignored it and left.
A woman who sees men like stones and burns revenge against villains. That was the appearance of the Sword Master. Her lack of interest in her man was also the reason she had given up on getting her own traits from her.
“Cool…”
Jiah Lee muttered softly.
I don’t know what’s cool Maybe it’s because he has such outstanding abilities that he doesn’t care about the opponent’s background or ability.
Anyway, we went inside. I looked at the menu board. The course menu was written on the menu board. There were a lot of wild vegetable courses with pumpkins and vegetables and a full Korean meal course, but I was contemplating what to eat.
I must have sweated through training before coming here. I wanted to eat a meat dish with a lot of volume, but the dish was too expensive, so I hesitated. A course meal costs 1 million won each.
“What would you like to order?”
“It’s what I always ate.”
While I was contemplating, Dayoon Nam elegantly ordered.
“I’ll do the same thing as Da-yun Nam.”
Harin Kim made the wisest choice. She also said Lee Ji-ah at the end of Kim Harin.
“I’ll ask for the same thing.”
With this, everyone except me picked the same menu. For some reason, I felt like I should order the same thing. Well, I came to a restaurant, but what is the importance of quantity? Taste doesn’t matter.
I was about to order the same thing.
“How about Siwoo?”
Dayoon Nam pointed to the menu board and said. He recommended the course I wanted to eat the most. A course meal worth 1 million won.
No matter how shameless I am, I don’t think it’s worth spending that much on a single dish.
“No, this is too expensive…”
“It’s okay. I’m buying it for my younger brother, but what?”
She said with a slight smile. Having said this, it would be more rude for her to decline.
“Then we’ll eat well.”
“Yes. I’d like three of these courses and a meat dinner course, please.”
“All right.”
The waiter dressed in hanbok bowed politely and left.
