Chapter 463 – Episode 52. Empress of the Underworld.
“It’s been a while, Ryuta.”
“It’s been a really long time. How have you been?”
Tang Xiaohua held out his hand, and I met him, shook his hand, and said, “It’s been a while.” When I asked her how she was doing, she glared at me and shook her head.
“Is it possible that I was doing well?”
“Huh? Why is something happening?”
When I asked what was going on when I said they weren’t getting along, he looked at me with a puzzled expression. Do you really not know? It was an expression like that.
“Under! You changed my body strangely. You!”
“That’s strange…”
Anyone who hears this will think that he is a mad scientist who transforms people. I just made my body sensitive.
“After… Let’s go in first. “I left a few maids behind just because you’re coming, so you can feel at ease.”
“Thank you for your concern.”
When I told them that I was doing an undercover mission where my identity must not be revealed, they seemed to care in this way. I followed Dang So-hwa into the house.
Dang So-hwa’s house looked like an oriental house on the outside, but the interior felt like an ordinary luxury house.
“Actually, I don’t come home often. “I’m so busy with work that I often sleep in the night room attached to the president’s office.”
As I looked around the house, Tang Xiaohua said: In fact, it will be very busy. It hasn’t been long since he was released from prison, but he must be extremely busy to set up and run a company of this size.
“Have you eaten breakfast?”
“I missed you, so I washed up as soon as I woke up and drove straight back, so I haven’t eaten yet.”
“Hmm, did you really want to see me, so you came as soon as you woke up?”
Dang Sohwa was quite amused by what I said. This is what it means to say that you can repay a thousand debts with just a few words.
“That’s right. Maybe that’s why I’m starving.”
“Let’s eat together then. Please wake Xueshi while I prepare the food. “That’s the room.”
Are you preparing breakfast yourself? It doesn’t match the usual feeling of sugar digestion. I looked at Dang So-hwa preparing the food and opened the door where Yang Seol-hee, whom Dang So-hwa had told me about, was sleeping. The room was dark, but there was a girl’s unique, pleasant scent inside.
Tak!
When I pressed the button to turn on the light, I saw Yang Seol-hee sleeping with a blanket wrapped around her. He was sleeping with a blanket wrapped around his waist and his underwear on top. Is it uncomfortable to sleep in your underwear? I think it would be uncomfortable…
“Excuse me…”
I slowly shook Yang Seol-hee’s shoulder. Yang Seol-hee did not wake up without making a loud noise. But isn’t he a sniper? I don’t think I should be this insensitive…
“Get up because it’s time for breakfast.”
I shook my shoulder a little harder. As I woke up Yang Seol-hee, who rarely wakes up, I was able to feel a little bit the feelings of mothers who wake their children in the morning.
“Ugh…”
Yang Seol-hee narrows her eyes, as if she is dazzled by the lights on, and smiles at me.
“Ehehe, it’s Ryuuta-sama… !”
Perhaps in his sleep, he smiles and hugs me. When he feels my touch while holding him, he is rather surprised. Was I mistaken for a dream?
“Uh, when did you come here, Ryuta?”
“I just arrived.”
Yang Seol-hee sits up as if completely awake and looks at me with a puzzled expression.
“I have to eat breakfast first, so get ready and come out.”
“Wait a minute!”
“Huh?”
As I was about to turn around and leave, he called me out. Even when she turns her head, she looks at Yang Seol-hee and sees Yang Seol-hee smiling.
“Welcome.”
Are you saying hello to me because I said I was sleeping? I smiled and answered yes. Then he closed the door and went to the table. When he saw me come out of the room, Tang Sohwa opened his mouth.
“It’ll be soon. “Please wait a moment.”
The air fryer was making a whirring noise, and Dang So-hwa was grinding something milky-white in a blender. As I listened to the sound of the blender and watched Danghwa-hwa cooking, Yang Seol-hee’s room soon opened and Yang Seol-hee came out, looking comfortable in her short sleeves and shorts.
“Lyuta, Captain, good morning.”
“Aren’t you sleeping too much because you overworked yourself yesterday?”
“I didn’t overdo it. “It’s just because I stayed up late watching Latflix.”
After listening to the two of them, it seems like they did something yesterday. The only thing I can think of that Yang Seol-hee would do is snipe… If I remember correctly, he probably killed a few people yesterday.
“Okay, that’s it.”
Dang Sohwa set out a bowl of thick beige liquid and a long piece of fried bread in front of each person.
“What is this?”
“Soy milk. “I ground the boiled beans myself.”
When I asked about the beige liquid, pointing to it, Dang Sohwa explained with a slight smile. Well, it was soy milk. Because it is soy milk that has been boiled and ground on site, it appears to have a thicker consistency than regular products.
“You eat this bread by dipping it in soy milk. “In China, people eat breakfast like this a lot.”
Ah, this is Chinese breakfast. I dipped the fried bread in soy milk and ate it. Well, the warm and savory bean broth seeped into the spaces between the breads, making it quite edible.
“Mmm, it’s delicious.”
“You can eat it with sugar or just eat it.”
It tasted even better when I added a little sugar following Yang Seol-hee’s advice. As expected, it tastes better because it contains more calories. Dang Sohwa was looking at me eating with a happy expression.
“It tastes good even with sugar in it?”
“I’m glad it suits your taste.”
Dang Sohwa was very happy to hear that it was delicious. I didn’t expect this kind of domesticity since I’ve only seen people kill people with poison. People come in many forms.
“Oh right. “If there is more room in the Ryuto Construction manpower, I would like to build a building in Neo-Tokyo.”
Almost immediately after making money through stocks, land in Kisarazu-shi, Sodegaura-shi, Kimitsu-shi, and Futtsu-shi, which were planned as the site of Neo-Tokyo. Has been purchased. I probably used about a third of the money I earned back then to buy land in Neo Tokyo.
Even though the land price had risen sufficiently at that time, if the Neo Tokyo project was successful, we could buy land by at least two to three times as much, or even tens of times as much, so we did not spare any money and bought land.
Since there was no way I would continue to be an employee of the Human Resources Development Institute, I was planning to set up my residence in Neo-Tokyo, which would become the center of Japan in the future.
“We can gather as much manpower as we want. “Ryuta’s building can be made strong with almost no margin.”
“Please pay attention because we have to make it the best. Let’s talk about the details later when Senior Chieri comes.”
Chieri Mimata knows the practical matters, so I’ll leave it to her. Right now, my priority was to eat a breakfast that digested sugar in preparation for the physical activity ahead.
“Have you had any difficulties or problems while working?”
Still, I couldn’t just eat without saying anything, so I asked him if he had had any difficulties during this time. Then, Yang Seol-hee started to talk about the difficult tasks as if she had asked well.
“I’m just getting back on track and getting comfortable. Korea had more Kurotsukido forces left than Japan, so it was easier for us to absorb them, but it was difficult because the captain was in charge of Japan. “We lost a lot of troops in the war against Taira food.”
Certainly, when Tang Xiaohua, as the head of the Kurotsuki Island Northeast Asia branch, intercepted the Kurotsuki Island forces in Korea and Japan, Japan would have been the one with the fewest troops. I know something about this because I participated in the war in the Taira Foods division, but Kurotsuki Doo’s troops had suffered quite a lot of damage.
It seemed that Tang Sohwa left the Korean side, which was more comfortable as its forces were intact, to Yang Seol-hee, while Tang Sohwa, who had high combat power, took charge of the Japanese side, which lacked troops. If it is a single enemy, it is possible to kill more than a thousand per day unless the enemy is prepared for poison.
“Everyone worked hard. “It’s hard to say it’s a reward for your hard work, but I prepared a gift for you and I hope you like it.”
I took out the cross-shaped ruby earrings I bought at a black market auction in New York before my mission to St. Francis Girls’ Academy, and the drop-shaped sapphire earrings I bought in the United States. The ruby earrings had 1 stamina and resistance, and the sapphire earrings allowed you to use a special skill called Frost Fog Zone, which covered the surroundings with cold fog once a day.
“You brought me an artifact as a gift…”
“That’s right! I heard that artifacts are usually very expensive. How did you get them?”
“I have quite a bit of money. “I have enough money to buy gifts, so don’t worry.”
Gamers just call them items, but in this world, items with options are usually called artifacts. In fact, in my case, I could say that it was a huge main character correction because I could tell the abilities of the item just by looking at it with concentration.
The sapphire earrings I got this time were something I got after wandering around various antique shops and checking their abilities.
“Then Shuesi takes the sapphire earrings. It will be useful when retreating after sniping.”
“That’s also true.”
After talking to each other, Yang Seol-hee decided to get sapphire earrings and Tang So-hwa decided to get ruby earrings. It was definitely as I thought. Since snipers operate alone during combat, they must have solid escape skills. The frost fog zone of the sapphire earring was sufficient to hide Yang Seol-hee’s body.
“Thank you, Ryuta.”
“Thank you, Ryuta.”
The two said thank you and put on the earrings they each chose.
“You worked hard, so you should at least do this. Fortunately, they both fit well together.”
They both smiled happily when they told me they looked good on me. Then, I look at my empty bowl for sugar digestion.
“Did you finish breakfast?”
“Huh. “I ate well.”
“Then go to the washroom and brush your teeth.”
I know what your intention is, but aren’t you in a hurry this morning? In fact, the sugar digestion is so bad that it tells me that it has changed its body in a strange way, so the intensity of estrus must be significant. Should I consider it admirable that he didn’t attack me as soon as he saw me?
I got up and went to the washroom. A new toothbrush was already prepared in the washroom. You’re meticulous…
When I finished brushing my teeth and came out, the two of them were nowhere to be seen. I guess they were in the bedroom or something? I walked to the room where I heard the sound and opened the door.
