Chapter 460 – Quest
Afterwards, my parents returned home and apologized, saying that they had received the request with a very sorry face.
It’s the first time my parents have shown me this kind of face, so I’m a little embarrassed, but I know I can’t help it because I’m watching everything.
Even in such a situation, if you complain about it, what would it be like to be unfilial?
It was just for work as if nothing had happened, so when I told her that she understood, her mother was moved and gave me a hug.
In addition, her father, who was always blunt and did not express affection well, rarely hugged her mother and said thank you.
‘This feels new.’
When I was young, I thought that my parents’ affection was natural, but when I grew up, I felt strange to receive this kind of affection directly.
Nothing much happened after that. Dad said he would make a plan, went into the main room of the hotel, and made a plan for two days.
——————————-
For two days, I just quietly rested at home, with my dad making plans and her mom backing it up.
It was because I didn’t want to go outside and disturb Dad’s concentration.
‘I like this better.’
I’ve been walking around a lot lately after gaining the ability, but since I’m a hikikomori, I liked being like this.
-Kikkik
When I was quietly resting in my hotel room for the first time in a while, the door that hadn’t been opened unless my mom went in opened, and my dad appeared.
“Is the plan over?”
“Yeah, I almost finished it for now.”
“Then I’ll call you.”
“Please.”
While I was making plans, my dad went back to sleep very quickly because he hardly slept and was focused.
Mom said she wanted to get the job done right away, so she called the company and said she had her plans in place.
“Then, will her son’s mother go out for a while?”
“Yeah, have a good trip.”
Maybe it’s because they’ve been working together for a long time, but when mom just sees her dad’s plans, she quickly comes to a level of understanding.
That’s how mom went out to explain the plan to the company, and her dad went to bed and became free.
‘How should I deliver the items…’
During the two days my dad was planning, I went to the store to pick and choose protective items, and I struggled with how to deliver them.
The types of protective items were quite diverse, but I chose all of them in the form of accessories to avoid suspicion as much as possible.
Items such as necklaces, bracelets and rings that can be worn simply without any problems.
I wanted to tell you to just wear everything you have, but I couldn’t because I had to explain my abilities to do that.
There are a total of three items that I picked out over the two days.
A bracelet, ring, necklace with a decent design, and an earring for the mother who is exposed to a little more risk because she always goes ahead of her father.
Originally, I wanted to give them all the same, but my dad doesn’t wear earrings, so I couldn’t really give them.
‘But the other things aren’t very practical.’
There were also anklets worn on the ankles and circlets worn on the head, but neither of them liked accessories that much, so there was no way they could wear them.
Now, if you wear all the accessories that are given to you, you will be able to appreciate it. In the case of my father, I could not wear it because I was only wearing my mother’s wedding ring.
All the effects of the items I have been looking at and purchasing have been like this.
[Necklace of Prayer]
-This necklace automatically spreads a barrier that blocks any attack the wearer receives.
[Bracelet of Protection]
-If a threat occurs to the target wearing this bracelet, it automatically blocks the attack for 5 minutes.
[Ring of Hope]
-This ring automatically restores the body no matter how much damage the wearer takes.
[Lucky Earring]
– These earrings increase the luck of the wearer, allowing them to safely escape from any threat.
I bought the necklace I had seen the other day, and the bracelet and ring were selected as items that were moderate and effective.
What all items have in common is that they all automatically protect themselves when a threat occurs.
There was also an item that could be defended with will, but this was the best because the ability could not be explained.
‘All the combinations are fine.’
These were the armors that I really thought about for two days and thought about the combination of each item.
In the case of a necklace, it is an instant death prevention item that can be bought at least once even if it is a huge firepower like a bomb.
While wearing it, he threw a fist at 50% of his power directly at me, but judging from the fact that he blocked it, I wasn’t worried.
After all, the system told me that 50% of my strength with my current ‘half-body’ is the level of a tank shell.
‘There’s no way I can bring something like a tank from the city.’
In an American city that is very sensitive to terrorism, even in the capital city, there was no way there would be a tank.
The bracelet is an item that allows you to fight safely even if you are hit by a blind bullet or sniper in the event of a gunfight.
To see how well this item protects, when I hit it with the same strength as the necklace, the protective shield was broken at once.
Instead, since I defended my fist without damage once, I probably had a limit on what I could endure to the maximum, so I adopted it.
‘For now, just two of these should be enough to save my life.’
It was the perfect combination because that alone would prevent him from dying in an unreasonable surprise attack.
In the case of the ring, it was almost a last resort. An item that can recover when inevitably damaged after using the necklace and the effect of the bracelet.
I secretly used it at home alone, and it quickly healed the damage to my broken bones.
‘I thought I would die of pain.’
To test this out, I first tried to cut myself with a knife, and then, worst-case scenario, I tested it by breaking my arm.
For the first time in my life, I tasted the pain of breaking a bone, and it really tasted like death.
If it wasn’t for the mentally strengthened state due to the ‘half body’, I would have screamed to leave the room without knowing it.
Still, it took less than 10 seconds, so it was a rewarding item to go through the pain when I directly experienced the recovery.
‘My son is working so hard. Mom and dad.’
Full of filial piety that he cares for his parents so much, he confirmed the effect of the item given only to the last mother.
I really thought a lot about what to do with the last pair of earrings. Since I stand in the avant-garde than my dad, protective items are also good.
However, in the end, I chose an item with an effect that could further enhance the skills of a good mother.
‘If I block it one more time, I can doubt it.’
An effect that helps you get out of an unexpected dangerous situation more safely.
I’ve escaped danger twice with just the necklace and bracelet I’ve just prepared, and if I escape again, I’m sure they’ll doubt me.
In addition, if she was a mother with good sense, to be honest, she thought she was dangerous twice, so three times was unreasonable.
If there is one problem, it is that I have not been able to test it because of the unknown effect of luck.
I checked the other guys myself, but I was most anxious because I couldn’t directly check how it manifested.
‘Still, it’s good because it’s a shop item.’
I had faith in it because it was a shop item that I had never been disappointed with.
All that was left now was how to convey this, but I quickly came up with an excuse.
It’s my parents’ wedding anniversary soon, so I’m giving it as a gift for that.
Thanks for the really good timing, I was thinking of giving this item away this evening.
——————————–
Around the time Lee Jin-seok was preparing items at home alone. Park Ha-eun, who arrived at the company, was explaining her husband’s plan.
“First of all, it was decided that me and my husband would do a close escort.”
There are several ways to escort. Take a sniper position from a distance to deter surrounding threats.
The other is to stick closely and to reliably protect the commissioned object no matter what kind of threat arises.
Park Ha-eun is always in charge of the sniper because she is good at shooting, but since the client this time is President Ron, I decided to do that.
“You’re a sniper, so that doesn’t matter?”
“It is said that she is a cherished granddaughter, and no matter how much I am, if I am sniping when something happens, it will be too late to respond.”
“Thank you…”
“Even if you don’t want to do it, if you do it, you have to do it right.”
President Ron expressed his gratitude to her for doing it right, as long as he received the request, although he was forced to do so.
“Is there anything special about the escort target?”
“What’s unusual about it?”
“I like things like allergies, personality, whatever.”
The most important thing while escorting is what kind of personality the escort target has.
An escort who was too timid could panic and sabotage his plans in case of danger.
“Mmm…”
“Be honest and without exaggeration, otherwise you could really die.”
Chairman Ron, who recalled the personality of her granddaughter, pondered whether or not to really say this, and opened his mouth to Park Ha-eun’s sincere words.
“Actually, my granddaughter’s personality is a bit off.”
“How?”
“Is it too hot? Maybe it’s because I was raised, I don’t have the habit.”
“It doesn’t matter if the escort target is spoiled, it’s not a day or two. Other than that?”
“No, no, it’s not at the level you think.”
“Then, which one is it?”
“Ha… That’s what you mean…”
When he recalled his granddaughter’s personality, President Ron couldn’t help but speak.
‘I wonder if he’ll follow suit…’
Her granddaughter had a bean pod written on her because she was too shy since she was young, and even when she saw it herself, her granddaughter’s personality was a bit serious.
Normally, she’s just calm, but when she’s upset, she doesn’t listen very much.
If the person who has already hurt your heart speaks, they do the opposite no matter what they do.
She goes into her room without eating when told to eat, and runs out of the house when told to sleep.
A personality that is absolutely unsuitable as an escort who must keep his word unconditionally in any situation.
If you don’t get hurt, you’re really like an angel, but if you get hurt, you’re really like a devil.
“He…Is a bit delicate, so he never listens to me when I get hurt.”
“What?! Why are you saying that now!”
“Sorry…I was in a hurry back then…”
“Haa…This old man is real.”
After hearing what President Ron said, Park Ha-eun could only sigh.
To hear that the person to be escorted has the worst personality for escorting in a situation where he has already received a request.
‘No, this is my fault too.’
While escorting, the most important thing is the subject’s personality, but I couldn’t ask because I thought I had to go see Jin-seok quickly.
Her rational and thorough husband also left immediately at the thought of seeing her son, so she said everything.
Still, what should I do with the water already spilled? Park Ha-eun sighed and asked how to avoid disturbing the planting of the escort target as much as possible.
“How can I be offended?”
“That… I don’t know, it seems like the standard has been set, but it has changed according to one’s own will.”
“It’s really bad.”
I thought there would be some way because he was the president of Ron, who I had seen for a long time, but he didn’t know either.
Frustrated, Park Ha-eun remembered the cigarettes she had quit after having Lee Jin-seok.
‘No, no.’
She quit smoking and changed all of her harsh words to become a good mother.
She had no intention of giving up on something like this, so she could only sigh.
‘It’s changed a lot.’
And Chrome, who was watching that, thought that Park Ha-eun had changed a lot.
In the past, the moment this happened, I would have overturned her desk and grabbed Chairman Ron by the collar and cursed at him, but his personality really died a lot.
“First of all, there is no change in the movement plan… Oh, it’s really annoying.”
When Park Ha-eun frowned at her, Chrome, who knew her personality, flinched at her.
No matter how much her personality died after giving birth to her son, she wouldn’t have changed her nature.
“I’m so sorry…I’ll have it ready right away so you can tell me anytime if you need anything.”
“That’s natural, if you told me that there was no support after ordering things like this, you’d be dead to me right now.”
“…”
Park Ha-eun begins to growl as her old nature is revealed little by little.
‘Maybe it hasn’t changed that much…’
Chrome, who saw her, was withdrawing her own thoughts just before her. She said that Park Ha-eun was still like a mad dog.
“Haa… Did you really get it for nothing?”
“Please, I want you to reap the withdrawal.”
When Park Ha-eun muttered and seemed to be canceling her request, Chairman Ron asked him not to do so with an impatient face.
The mercenaries with strong self-esteem are so talented that they say that their skills are several orders of magnitude higher than themselves in escort.
In addition, among the mercenaries, there were very few Asians, and even though they were ignored a lot, they were recognized.
If Park Ha-eun, who has such outstanding skills, cancels his request now, nothing bad happened to Chairman Ron.
No matter how many people you mobilize, there is a limit, so you have to fill it with a small number of elites, but those two were the best choice because they couldn’t match it.
“Don’t worry, I won’t cancel the request I received again with something like this.”
“Thank you so much…And I’m sorry…”
Hearing her confirmation that he would not accept her request, President Ron thanked her with her head bowed, saying thank you very much.
In front of her beloved granddaughter, it didn’t matter if she was the president of a famous military company or not. The only one here now is her grandfather, who cares for his granddaughter and has a lot of money.
And Park Ha-eun, who has given birth and raised a child, was well aware of that and accepted it.
