Chapter 60 – Episode 60. Either I Bow Down or Bow Down to Me. Do You Already Have the Answer?
“I’m hungry…”
Watching the sizzling bacon, Sua salivates.
“Where to take a bite-ah at-at-“
“Where are you touching!”
Without fear, he picks up the bacon from the frying pan and hurries it into his mouth with a squeal.
“Hey, it’s delicious-“
“No, you’re a beast, sister!”
Well-
“Look at you getting angry because you’re hungry.”
Sua picked up her bacon again and put it in Arin’s mouth.
“No- ha-huh- hot- whoop-“
“Oh, my baby is eating well.”
A kitchen where rice is cooked.
“Ugh…”
Erie gets kicked out of the kitchen and lies down with me on the couch, her mouth bulging.
“I want to cook too…”
“No!!!”
Hearing that, Arin screamed in fright, and Lee raised her eyebrows again.
“Huh-“
The wolf turned her head and turned to me.
“It’s petty…”
“Haha…”
Only the one in the middle laughed awkwardly.
In the morning, as soon as Iri heard ‘Shall I cook for you?’ Arin, who became contemplative, hurriedly settled down in the kitchen, and Sua, who was cooking in her own way, followed suit.
“I am good at cooking now! Shia has eaten my food too!”
When Iri shouted as if it was unfair, Arin narrowed her eyes and looked at me.
“Are you the master?”
“Yes!”
I nodded, unable to bear the look in her eyes as if you were asking me to say something.
“What… What…?”
“What did you eat?”
Arin, holding a spatula in one hand, strides toward her.
By the way Arin Ah, her naked apron, I’m glad from the morning on her excellent taste.
When I stare at myself, Arin smiles and spins around.
“Huh- it’s worn out. I’m the owner – what did you do anyway!”
“Toast!”
Lee shouted confidently, but Arin let out a deep sigh.
“After…”
Arin placed her hand on her forehead and shook her head.
“How much trial and error she must have gone through to make it… The ghosts of the countless slices of bread that were sacrificed are calling out to me…”
“No, some toast.”
I am dumbfounded and deny it, but the wolf in my arms avoids my gaze.
“Well, then… It’s basically toast.”
“Huh-sister-“
“Hey?”
Why, what
Why can’t I lift her head
“Sat, toast, you’ll know after you do it a few times…Then!”
“Please correct it a few dozen times.”
“Who toasted dozens of times-“
“Here sister.”
“Yes?”
“How many minutes did you bake the first time you made toast?”
The wolf, who had been avoiding me rolling her eyes, whispered softly.
“0-minutes.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“30 minutes…”
?
?
“Three minutes?”
“No…30 minutes…”
Keugh-
Like the disgraced female knight, the wolf felt ashamed.
“No, what 30 minutes…”
“That’s about cooking bread, so that’s about it…”
Even though she is talking herself, she seems to feel like bullshit. Her words are getting blurry.
Wow. It’s the first time I’ve seen someone who expresses that they cook bread.
It’s cute, but baking toast for 30 minutes isn’t easy.
Arin looks at me as if showing off.
“You know. What the owner ate is the product of tearful effort that was finally completed after thousands of hundreds of tries.”
Arin proudly holds up a spatula and points to the kitchen.
Bubbling mushroom soup, buttered morning bread cut in half, scrambled eggs with bacon and carrots, and shredded cabbage.
Still, this is a normal breakfast. Toast or something.
“Now, sister here?”
“Yes?”
“What’s in that button mushroom soup?”
“Mushroom…?”
“And?”
“…Water?”
He looks at me as if he is confused, then replies again.
“Uh, salt and… More? Isn’t it mushroom soup made by boiling mushrooms?”
“How much should I boil?”
“…Six hours? Wouldn’t that make it mushy?”
Five. It’s so damn plausible.
He held Lee tightly in his arms. She seems to be in a strange mood and struggles and pushes me away.
“Let’s not cook here.”
“Why why—!”
“You are so genius that the world is hard to follow.”
Let’s lie down here and eat the rice they give you.
“Me. I’m going to practice cooking!”
I was embarrassed by the screaming wolf.
Good job Wolf. Smash the common sense of the culinary world and come.
*
After having a hearty breakfast, the wolf prepares to go out.
“Store?”
“I have to go…”
Is it a convocation order before the end of the year?
The project was abolished as it was moved to the secretary’s office, but the existing members said that they periodically gather to undergo ‘examination’.
Are you socializing well and are there any discomfort?
In reality, it would be close to monitoring or supervision.
A loosely dressed wolf stares at me while wearing heels.
“It will take a while to quit the company, so please wait.”
“? What are you talking about?”
“? You-“
“?”
Wolf stomps her foot as I put on a look that doesn’t make any sense. No, but I really don’t understand anything.
“You said you were responsible for me—!”
“Right?”
“Then you don’t have to leave the company first—“
He beats her chest like he’s frustrated.
“Five.”
“You sound like oh!”
The wolf, who threw her hard-wearing heels behind her feet, stands in front of me.
“I’m yours!”
“Right?”
“My sister is telling my brother that she will come in at all.”
Arin, who had been silently watching, helped him.
“Why?”
“Our group, no, it’s not just our group, but most of them, because we don’t let go of people like Lee unnie easily. My sister is a very high-level Awakener? Even my sister is an assassin.”
Arin continues her words casually.
“It’s actually strange to see your face like it is now, isn’t it? He even stayed with me after leaving the group. I came out as if I was completely insulated, but- Lee unnie is um…Yes. It belongs to Taedong.”
Erie speaks up
“But, if I suddenly appear, everyone will look at me strangely. Therefore.”
Lee hugs me tight.
“I…Even if I come to you…I’ll make sure you don’t get hurt…Joe, wait a little bit…”
Oh
That’s right.
Come to think of it, Lee was not an ordinary person.
In front of us is a cute she-sheep, a walking murder weapon that knows corporate secrets.
“That, so-“
Ttiring ttiring-
The wolf looks at me sadly. Suddenly, her cell phone rings in her pocket.
Like an alarm bell.
Lee, who identified the caller, puts the phone back in and hugs me tightly.
“Hey, you can quit right away! Trust me, only me!”
A wolf smiles awkwardly and runs out of the house.
“…”
What is this.
I felt really cheap.
It was good from morning until just now.
Coldness lingers in the empty place where the wolf suddenly left,
An unknown feeling rises inside your body.
“Arin.”
“So…”
Arin, who was scratching her head, sits down at the table in front of the sofa and sits me down.
“My older sister is a valuable asset to our group. Pretty. Apart from the achievements of our president and his directors.
And our company is greedy. She doesn’t let go of what she’s holding in her hand, and immediately cuts off anything that can hold her back.
And the older sister is a dagger in the company’s picture with her very existence.
Do you know what percentage of humanity are Class B Awoken?”
“I think it was a little over 10%.”
“Yes. In addition, my sister is a really perfect ‘personal’ Awakener who doesn’t do hunter activities separately. Unlike most Awoken who become and operate as Hunters, her older sister is an Assassin trained exclusively to deal with ‘people’.
The company also brainwashed me very elaborately. Although it has been on the decline in recent years, it is a company that falls within the fingers of the business community. Running an assassin is no big deal.
But a person who has been trained so perfectly suddenly leaves the company? The company has no intention of retiring?”
Arin stealthily looks at me.
“The company would have questions about that, right? What is he doing What are you trying to do? Are you moving somewhere else? A kid with no family, a kid who has been taught to be loyal to a corporation for life, all of a sudden?
Of course, our company also treats them when they retire, but that’s because mutual trust has definitely been built up, and they’re no longer useful, so they let them go. In Lee’s case, neither is the case.
Of course, I would watch over my sister like that. If she finds a new owner to entrust her body to, she will kill that owner, and if she meets her love, she will get rid of her love. Then come back.”
“Therefore…”
“That’s why her sister has to go round and round to come. Because her sister is not her typical office worker. She quit the company and she pretended to travel and show it off.
‘Oh, she just wanted to quit, she didn’t have another mind.’
It’s hard to touch that. Because it’s not betrayal. If you cut off even these things in the bud, there will be a strong backlash from the shadow side. It’s very sticky inside. Except for betrayal. Anyway, until this is confirmed. Otherwise.”
“Am I in danger?”
Arin nodded her head.
“That’s it.”
…Suddenly, I feel like shit.
The situation where Lee had to avoid me, and the situation where he believed that it was reasonable and was considerate of me. All of this suddenly feels like shit.
Was it because of this that it made you feel bad?
It’s mine.
I feel like someone is daring to take this away from me.
“I won’t see you at all for a while. Even if it’s to avoid getting caught quitting because of me.”
“So… That’s it.”
“Then-“
What should I do?
The voice cracks low and comes out.
Arin, who had been looking at her lightly, hesitated in replying.
“T-T, there’s nothing I can do…To reduce the time…What can I do…”
“Is there anything?”
Arin, who was grunting, stuttered.
“That… The problem is like this… I can’t stop my older sister. But that… Even from the point of view of Taedong, it’s a bad feeling- Is it like this? Then, there are two opposite cases… So, when you look at the other person, it’s not bad to pass up unnie, or…”
“Either the baby has to behave badly.”
Nod
I tapped on the desk.
I feel bad.
Bend or
Make me bend
Took-
Finally, the knock on the desk resonates loudly.
“There won’t be anything that Taedong will pass over here in a bad mood.”
“Yes…”
“So, to put it simply, it’s like this.”
“Yeah?”
“It doesn’t mean that I just have to make Taedong smile and pass the wolf to me. Looking into my eyes.”
“That. Right? Because that’s the only thing left… That’s um. It’s impossible.”
“Why?”
“Uh…”
Arin hesitates.
“Because there is no reason to hand over the wolf to the master right now.”
“Am I a dick?”
When I smile, Arin shakes her hand in embarrassment.
“No, not like that. There’s just no reason to…”
“You can create a reason.”
When I answered lightly, Arin widened her eyes.
“You can make it like that.”
Anyway, that’s what I was trying to do.
Either I bend over, or I bend over to me.
There is only one answer anyway.
Something that makes me cringe and make me stoop.
“It shouldn’t be the same, right?”
“That…Cho. They would think of me as a competitor…”
“It’s easy.”
Easy.
Isn’t it okay to stand above those bastards?
The shit from earlier won’t leave my head.
I dare to take my girl, but I feel like I’m being arrogant and I’m blocked.
“How long will it take for you to come here alone without noticing?”
“…3 years? Minimal catch…”
Snap-
Lines of thread form in the eyes. As I laughed dejectedly, Arin blurted out her words.
Fuck.
3 years?
3 years?
“Is it because of me?”
When I wheeze, Arin gets startled.
“No, that-“
“It’s a matter of me, I want to be stronger.”
Without looking at anyone,
Rather, to the extent that everyone notices me.
In an instant, the insignificant life before coming here passes by.
I can no longer protect one of my people, so the bee bee bee bee bee bee is over.
Betrayal, abandonment, everything is disgusting.
Once the top is open, the head continues to heat up easily.
“1 year.”
Shaking with anger, I said.
I am ashamed of myself for not thinking about it.
“I will kneel in a year.”
Bend your back 90 degrees to me,
I’m ashamed of that, but I can’t even make a sound.
Standing so high that even the swings can’t see it.
Why do I have to bend over
You gotta make me bend over
That’s my way
