Resurrected Immortal 885

Chapter 885 – 885. Dreams of the Past (7)

After a hard day’s work, Erin called right away as usual.
The product of civilization called the smartphone was really the crystallization of mystique when I first used it, and the touch operation itself was still very awkward, but I have become quite proficient at making a phone call.
There was a brief connection tone and a voice came straight from the phone.

[Hello?]

“Sister! I’m done!”

[Whoops, you worked hard.]

It was her Lily’s voice that let her little laugh and greeted her own phone.
Erin also spoke with a smile at Lily’s usual voice.

“Hee hee, what’s for dinner tonight?”

[I cooked ribs.]

“Omg.”

Galbijjim. Meat.
It was Erin’s favorite side dish for dinner.
In my head, I picture the ribs that Lily must have made.
Color marinated in brown seasoning.
The taste of sweet and salty seasoning that spreads as soon as you put it in your mouth and chew it, and the taste of the meat that is tenderly simmered.

“Hehe.”

As soon as you imagine it, your mouth starts to salivate.

[Is it that good?]

Lily over the phone asked if she had heard Erin’s sinister laugh, bursting into laughter as well.

“Huh! Great! I’ll go home soon!”

Now that she had completely adapted to life on Earth, Erin ran to her house, forgetting even the fatigue of her body accumulated from her hard labor.

“I’m back!”

As soon as she opened her door and stepped into the front door, Lily greeted her Erin home.

“I’m here? I’ll set the table, so wash up quickly. The madams are still studying.”

“Hi-Hi. Okay~!”

Erin left the bathroom right after her shower.

“You need to dry your hair.”

“Oh, sorry. Lol.”

She scratched her cheek awkwardly and smiled vaguely, and Lily let out a sigh and dried Erin’s still damp hair.

“Come on. I’ll dry her hair.”

Lily, who had prepared her table beforehand, took Erin back to her bathroom.
She turned on the dryer on the sink and she dried Erin’s hair.

“Huh, heh heung.”

As I dried and straightened her hair with a warm breeze, Erin hummed to her.
Lily’s hand, carefully organizing her, felt good.

“Good?”

“Huh. Good. Hyun-yi was living in a really good world.”

“Is it like that?”

Lily replied as she dried Erin’s hair.

“Huh. There is no witchcraft that puts people in danger here.”

There is no monster that eats humans and grows.
There are no demons who play with humans and throw them into confusion.
This world without magic was so peaceful.

“Still, even here, the fight itself doesn’t disappear at all…”

The irony was that since there were no monsters or demons that were enemies of humans, humans were now fighting among themselves.
The goal of conflict between people could not disappear at all.
From that point of view, this country called Korea is relatively peaceful.
It was a real pleasure to see that her powers, which she had worked so hard to destroy her enemies for so long, could be used not in battle but in normal everyday life.

“This place… Maybe the world before they appeared?”

“… I guess so.”

At Erin’s guess, Lily affirmed with a bitter expression.
The world before external beings such as witches and demons appeared on Earth.
Perhaps it was because he knew the sad ending that the world he was living in would soon be destroyed, so he had no choice but to put on a bitter expression.
This place is in the memories of Eun-hyeon’s past, and it is like a history of the past that never changes.
It was like watching and listening to a sad story with a pre-determined ending and experiencing it myself.

“I want to find Hyuni soon… What is Hyun doing now?”

“Huh. I want to see you too.”

I was very curious about what kind of life Eunhyeon was living in a peaceful era.

“It’s all dry.”

“Oh, hee hee. Thank you. Sister! I really love you!”

“Only in words?”

“No way!”

Erin turned her back and hugged Lily by the waist, rubbing her face and teasing her.
At her cute sister’s teasing, her lily laughed at her and pulled her away.

“Let’s go. Have to eat dinner Please wait for the mistresses.”

“Huh!”

When I left the bathroom and headed to the living room, Iliana and Eleanor were waiting at the table.

“Baby. Did you have fun today?”

“Yes. It was fun!”

It would be shocking to see her attitude of treating the hard work of carrying and stacking heavy materials all day as fun play, but in reality, it’s safe to say that Erin was going to the construction site for half fun.
The field work itself wasn’t too difficult for Erin, and above all, she could say that working while chatting with the workers who liked her and treated her kindly was quite fun.

“Okay. I had a hard time today too. Let’s eat now.”

“Yes! Thank you for this food!”

An evening meal that greets you as always.
Another peaceful day, as always, came to an end.

◆ ◆ ◆

“Miss! You worked hard today too!”

“Yes! You worked hard. Uncles!”

After another day’s work, when it was time to go home, her workers smiled at Erin as she greeted her brightly, waving her hands over her as if she was full of energy.
When she got off the bus from work, she finally came out of the field and realized that she was on her way home, moving her stiff body around.

“Ha… Today is over!”

As she was stretching and relaxing her body, the smartphone in her pocket vibrated.

Ugh

“Hmm? Are you Lily’s sister?”

I took my smartphone out of my pocket and checked the screen, but the number displayed was an unknown number.

“Who is it?”

Erin tilted her head and answered the phone.

“Hello?”

[It’s me.]

The voice that came over the smartphone was quite familiar.
It was the voice of Ju-hong, who had entered this dream together about a month ago and declared that he would take individual actions with Eun-hyeon’s wives, including himself.

“Oh, is it Hong? How did you know this number?”

[Lily unnie told me.]

“Ah, that’s right. How have you been doing?”

[I’m fine. Than you… I heard you are working hard at a construction site?]

“Huh. However?”

[… Wasn’t that the only thing to do?]

“Hey, this is worth doing. Pay is very strong, and the men are very nice to me.”

[What… It is, but… Ehh.]

A sigh that was hard to say came out over the smartphone.
First of all, Erin is very pretty and her body is beautiful, and she is kind to others, so her affinity is at the level of the highest level, so she thought that she would do well no matter what she was told to do.
But she must be a manual laborer.
She wondered if something was wrong, but she didn’t say it out loud.
She was very happy with what she was doing, Erin, because she couldn’t point it out to herself.

“By the way, Hong-ah. Why did you call me? Didn’t you call because there was something wrong?”

[Can you come to my place when the time comes?]

“Huh? Why?”

It was an easy request for her, but Erin became curious about the reason and asked.

[That is…]

Ju-hong hesitated and wondered whether or not to explain her reason, but she sighed and decided to tell her everything.
It wasn’t really a story to hide.

[I found her dad.]

“…”

Erin knew who the ‘dad’ Ju-hong had mentioned was, and she knew right away.
Red’s father.
Joo Hyun-seong.
And the teacher who taught Eun-hyeon the basics of fighting and how to survive in the hell where tens of thousands of people die every day.
Next to Eunhyun, she was also the man Erin and her other wives wanted to meet.

“Hmm. Good.”

Erin didn’t know why Ju-hong wanted to face him and Ju Hyeon-seong.
However, she thought that there was no way that Ju-hong would make a judgment that harmed her, so it didn’t take long for her to ponder and agree.

[Thank you.]

“Ah, but I’m not saying you’re just going to do a favor for nothing in return.”

[… Then?]

“There are conditions.”

[What.]

“Tell me where Hyun is.”

[…]

Ju-Hong held his breath for a moment as if he had heard an unexpected story.
He soon finished his agitation and asked Erin.

[… Did you know That I roughly know where my brother is.]

“Huh.”

From the first day Erin entered her dream, she had been vaguely aware of it.
Ju-Hong must have thought that he covered things up well by answering questions from his wives about Eun-hyeon’s location, but Erin, who read her moment-to-moment fluctuations in her emotions, noticed her lie from the beginning.

[But why didn’t you tell me?]

“Hmm, I thought there must have been a reason. And it was the same for us that we needed time to get to know and adapt to this world.”

So she quietly pretended not to know.
As long as she continues to live in this dream anyway, she will definitely meet Eun-hyeon.

“And you could meet Hyun without knowing anything.”

Erin imagined a situation where by chance she runs into Eun-hyeon on the street in the middle of Seoul and she recognizes each other.
A scene from a drama I watched a while ago came to mind, and the characters in the scene were replaced by himself and Eunhyeon.
A scene where a man and a woman who had no choice but to leave each other due to a story of injustice miraculously recognize each other and hug each other and welcome a thrilling reunion.

“Hi-Hi. Then I think it would be really romantic. Doesn’t that mean me and Hyuni are completely destined!?”

[…]

Ju-hong was at a loss for words because of his absurd imagination.

[You said that means you’ve given up the miraculous chance of naturally meeting her brother in the middle of Seoul?]

“Well, yes. It’s nice to wait while imagining that romantic situation, but now I really want to see Hyun.”

Waiting patiently has its limits.
Now I really miss Eunhyun’s face so much and wanted to see it.

[… Okay. Maybe when you come to where I am, you will know where your brother is.]

“Uh? Is Hyun-yi there?”

[No. It’s not… You will know when you come.]

“Hmm? Okay. Okay.”

Erin, as expected, was suspicious that Ju-hong’s blunt, evasive attitude seemed to be hiding something, but she didn’t think too much about it.

[Then, discuss with others and call me when the date is set.]

“Huh. Okay.”

On her way back home after talking on the phone with Ju-Hong, Erin stopped her steps and looked towards her food stall covered in orange cloth.

“… I am hungry.”

What caught Erin’s attention was a stall selling Taiyaki.
When she gets home, she will eat right away, but she wants to fill her hungry stomach right now, so she heads to her stall as if possessed.

“Uh, uh…”

Erin pondered as she looked at the taiyaki on display at her food stall with her serious gaze.

“Azuki beans or cream puffs…”

Like a warrior facing the most difficult problem in the world, the owner of the stall smiled at Erin, who couldn’t easily choose one side of her.

“Would you like half and half?”

“Auntie is a genius!”

Aware of the truth of her world, Erin smiled broadly and took out her bills from her purse and counted them.
She held up a wrapper full of two types of Taiyaki and bit into the steaming Taiyaki.

“Mmm! Sweet! Delicious!”

Erin’s mouth went wide at the sweetness and aroma of red beans that filled her mouth.
While on her way to her house while eating her Taiyaki, a group of men passed by Erin.

“Hey, are you going to play this evening?”

“Enjoy. I have to do my homework.”

“Ah! You only have until next week to complete today’s assignment! Do it on the weekend!”

“No. Let’s go to the garden tomorrow.”

“Miss Ha, it’s just today… If I do it today, I think I can go to diamonds?”

“… Uh?”

Erin felt something familiar in her and stopped her steps.
She turned her head and looked behind her.
Despite her friend’s persistent urging, she reacts with a stoic reaction, and she pierces the side of the man’s face who doesn’t go over the schedule. She stared

“…”

The color of her hair is black, not her usual white hair she knows herself.
The color of her eyes is also not red, but dark brown mixed with a lot of black.
However, it was other factors that caught Erin’s attention.
That face.
That voice.
And his body that I can’t forget.

“Ah…”

How could I not recognize him when I met him again after more than a month?
Could this really be fate?
As much as he missed him, his heart jumped up and he felt like he was going to cry.
Even the taiyaki bag was almost dropped on the floor, so I hugged it tightly and ran towards him.

“Oh, well, I have to do an assignment…”

“Hyunaaa!”

“It’s big!?”

She suddenly jumped out from behind and slammed into Eunhyun’s back relentlessly.

“Wow! Sibal, what a surprise!”

Surprised, Eun-hyeon’s friend, who was walking with her, momentarily cursed at her.

“Hi-Hi. Finally, I finally met you~!”

Erin didn’t care about the two’s flustered attitude, and she hugged Eunhyeon tightly and rubbed her face against his back.

“Haa, this smell… I really missed you…”

Watching Erin proudly hugging her own body and making skinship with her, Eunhyun and his friend made a puzzled expression.
Unable to shake off the bewildered feeling, Eunhyun asked with a blank expression.

“Who are you… ?”

Erin replied confidently.

“Hi-Hi. Your future wife!”
