Chapter 129

4 am.

I who woke earlier than usual unable to overcome sleepiness washing Ara’s face unable to properly open eyes.

Today the day going to China to visit Machonru Guild.

“Nothing not packed right?”

Prepared luggage meticulously the previous day but just in case confirming again. Anyway 1 night 2 day schedule so not many to prepare but at the thought just in case looking around again.

“Uum...”

Ara still rubbing sleepy eyes and yawning. Thinking have to wake sleep a bit and I taking out the Leila slushie made in advance.

“Ara, eat delicious.”

“Delicious!?”

Still sleepy face but Ara asking back with startled voice. Handing the slushie to such Ara starting to hum.

“Heheum~!”

“Looking at such winter not that bad.”

Slushie roughly mixing Leila’s juice and flesh with nearby snow. Roughly made but that taste guaranteed.

Once more looking around the field once before leaving and examining the familiars’ state. Still early time so some sleeping soundly but the kkumuri at least awake with blank expression.

-Heheng.

Stroking the guys whose inside unknown once each then finally examining Gomgomi sleeping hibernation and coming out.

“Going!”

Ara who became refreshed eating slushie shouting vigorously. Ara excited from the previous day saying going to China.

‘Seeming excited more at boarding plane again than China.’

Anyway looking at cute Ara and coming out of the dungeon. Only packed Bokkeum and came, actually preparing luggage also all meaningless action.

Anyway able to freely come and go using ‘Master of Gluttony’ so. Practically I walking dungeon.

“Um?”

As soon as coming out phone ringing. Then the texts piled in one day pouring.

All texts from father and Seona.

-Entrusted construction order.

Roughly summarizing father’s text expressed in one sentence. Saying amount estimating first but no particular worry of lacking money.

I leaving text to father saying briefly going to China for two days then confirming Seona’s text.

“What? Casting?”

In Seona’s text content outside my expectation written. Entertainment agency Steel Blood Enter contact came.

Written contact came looking at Ara’s Nutube video but suddenly representative Baek Taeseop’s appearance coming to mind.

‘Often looking at Ara with subtle eyes...’

By any chance thinking such every time!

I briefly looking at Seona’s text then soon leaving text saying going to China so thinking slowly and answering.

Simultaneously leaving one text to representative Baek too.

‘Steel Blood Enter contact came...’

If the representative Baek I know seeming contacted me first but sending mail to Seona first curious. So sending the content of the text Seona sent to representative Baek and catching taxi.

“To airport please!”

* * *

“Ooo.”

Plane starting takeoff Ara stuck to the window making strange sound. Fortunately on the plane only Ara Hongryeon’s staff dispatched for interpretation with us so nothing to watch eyes.

“By any chance lending guild’s private plane. Too grateful.”

“Awakener Lee Gyuseong VIP guild member.”

“Yes?”

“Joke. Haha. Actually seeming guild master judged this degree formality needed for visiting Machonru.”

At the interpreter’s light joke I scratching head and flowing smile.

The place Machonru Guild located Shanghai.

Boarding plane not that far place. Thanks to that during short flight time receiving treatment like real VIP and able to move comfortably.

Arriving at airport and as soon as getting off the plane immediately vehicle approaching the plane. Unlike our country’s airport having to get off directly to the ground from the plane and walk to the airport building looking at the car coming and briefly stopping.

“Anyway seeming came to pick up.”

“Oh.”

Actually very expensive looking magic stone limousine vehicle slowly stopping in front of us then soon the driver getting off.

“Welcome to China, awakener Lee Gyuseong. Will escort to Machonru.”

Natural Korean.

I inadvertently lowering head and greeting.

“I also Korean so fine speaking comfortably.”

“A, Korean.”

Of course thought Chinese person. Well giant dinosaur guild like Machonru only location in China but multinational guild.

Soon naturally opening the rear door and boarding Ara curiously whispering to me.

“Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong.”

“Uh, why?”

“This car cool. Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong not riding cool like this?”

“If going to Korea we also buy one?”

“Yeah!”

As it was thinking of buying car but looking at Ara’s reaction if returning have to look into right away. But such limousine vehicle a bit burdensome. Ara will be disappointed.

Limousine running without even one noise and good ride comfort. Chatting with the Machonru staff driving before we knew it able to arrive at Machonru soon.

“Uwaa.”

“Bigger than Ara Hongryeon!”

Ara breaking head back and shouting.

Reaction coming to mind when first seeing Ara Hongryeon’s building.

Machonru much more huge building than Ara Hongryeon as Ara said but not enough wide to both sides the top even covered by clouds and not visible degree.

Seeming technology utilizing magic stone but just amazing.

“Welcome, Mr. Gyuseong.”

“A! Miss Yu Bihong!”

Seeing the welcome face seen a while ago again. And beside such her the woman with pure white hair staring at Ara piercingly.

“Miss Ryu Cheon also hello?”

“Hello?”

“...”

Expressionless Ryu Cheon not reacting at all. Ultimately Yu Bihong casually touching beside then only then seeming coming to senses focus returning to both eyes.

“Hello. Thank you very much for coming like this today.”

“We who were invited rather thank you.”

“Ara well until now?”

“Yes. Well.”

Clearly conversing with me yet gaze stuck to Ara and not moving at all. Ultimately Yu Bihong clearing throat once more then Ryu Cheon’s gaze casually moving to me.

“How body? The soy milk given last time a bit effect?”

“Yes. Thanks to body much better than before. Did precise examination and actually dramatic effect proved.”

“Fortunate!”

Uh? But Ryu Cheon’s Korean skill feeling much grown in a few days. Now degree feeling really natural.

In the meantime Ara running trotting and stopping in front of Ryu Cheon and suddenly raising head and looking at her.

“Body fine!”

“Yeah.”

“Must not hurt! Even if hurt Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong will make better but if hurt hurts!”

“?”

Ryu Cheon looking at me as if asking to interpret Ara’s words. But the words just now I also unable to interpret. If hurt hurts? What sound?

Whether so or not Ara suddenly spreading both arms.

“Ryu Cheon! Hug me!”

“!!!”

At Ara’s sudden words Ryu Cheon freezing.

“Fan service! Ryu Cheon my fan!”

“...Yeah.”

Ryu Cheon glancing at my eyes once then without refusing hugging Ara tightly. Then soon rubbing even cheeks as if filling selfishness fully.

Ara’s face squished like steamed bun cute. Nevertheless Ara still trying to maintain solemn expression.

“I cool slime thinking of fans!”

“Right. Ara cool.”

“Huk! I cool?!”

Ara saying herself cool then actually hearing cool words and surprised. Always only hearing cute words then directly hearing cool words seeming surprised.

“Yeah. Our Ara cool.”

“Uuum!! Ryu Cheon Ryu Cheon good! Fine hugging a lot!”

Came out. Calling name twice.

Knows how to handle Ara. Indeed analysis power like Ara’s hardcore fan.

Like that causing commotion in front of the building for a while the Machonru staff who brought me stepping forward.

“Guild master waiting.”

“Yeah.”

Ryu Cheon still sticking face to Ara’s cheek and nodding. Expressionless face so something subtle.

Soon Ara transferred held in Ryu Cheon’s arms and the remaining party following such Ryu Cheon’s back.

“Waiting in the restaurant.”

“Restaurant?”

“Yes. By any chance ate?”

“Snacked a bit on the plane and limousine.”

“Grandfather, no guild master wanting to reciprocate with food to Mr. Gyuseong. But have to be careful.”

“Yes?”

“Our grandfather strange food eater.”

“...”

Something not ordinary from the start.

Me, right invited?

Restaurant existed on the middle floor of the building. Even saying middle because the building so high quite high floor.

“Wow.”

I boarding the elevator moving with magic stone and spouting admiration. Outside the inside not visible but inside the outside scenery revealing as is. Thanks to that boarding the elevator and going up the scenery all reflected.

“Huuu.”

And in the arrived restaurant already all kinds of foods waiting on the long table. And at the head seat guild master Ryu Wangjin exhaling clouds from mouth and welcoming us.

“Welcome to Machonru!”

“See again, guild master Ryu Wangjin.”

Already wearing translator so conversation possible without problem. Guild master Han Seokjun attached interpreter just in case but practically no need.

“Mr. Gyuseong, then pray for fate.”

“Yes, yes?”

Then Ryu Cheon suddenly saying and Yu Bihong also making troubled smile and lowering head.

Why? On earth why doing so?

Gradually becoming anxious amid Ryu Wangjin calling us.

“Sit here!”

“Yes.”

For now approaching the place Ryu Wangjin calling and sitting. Ara as if natural hopping and settling on my knee.

“Hello?”

“Ara! Hello!”

“Well, Son Ohgon!”

“Well! And not Son Ohgon but Son Ohgong!”

When conversation seeming brain melting again intending to continue I casually turning interest to the table.

But the appearance of the foods put on not ordinary.

‘Monster?’

Clearly dishes made with monster. But appearance bizarre, hard to stimulate appetite at all. Even some food smell bad.

“Good for body.”

Before I knew it Ryu Cheon sitting beside me saying with rarely frowning expression.

“...Have to eat this?”

“...Good for body.”

Ryu Cheon repeating the same words like broken toy. Then Yu Bihong making bitter smile and explaining instead.

“Because Miss Ryu Cheon body not good guild master made eat all kinds of nourishing food. Then unexpected side effect occurred...”

“Unexpected side effect?”

“...Guild master who was eating together with Miss Ryu Cheon opened eyes to strange food. Himself claims not strange food but as seen...”

“Guild master these foods in their way expression of sincerity.”

“Right. To ordinary people like us strange food but to guild master food like mountain and sea delicacies so often when inviting guests such matter happens.”

Troublesome. If refusing this ignoring sincerity, but foods hard to eat.

“Just asking but if leaving how?”

“...Of course have to leave. Until now not even one guest who cleanly emptied. Still have to pretend eating to some degree.”

“At least fortunate.”

Like that whispering conversation while Ara and Ryu Wangjin’s conversation also ending.

“Then, shall start meal! For the benefactor who cured our Ryu Cheon’s illness!”

Ryu Wangjin holding glass and shouting. And even from the liquid in the glass unknown bad smell spewing.

“Fo, for.”

Well, only pretend eating. And nourishing food. Good for body.

I deeply inhaling and chasing with eyes the food looking maximally normal among them. And then Ara tapping me.

“That! That! This!”

“A! Yeah. Moment.”

Have to serve Ara first. But Ara fine?

‘...Uh? Come to think of it our Ara also...’

Our Ara...

Nothing unable to eat!

The foods Ara pointed emitting appearance and smell I unable to even dare but Ara drooling and looking amazing.

And Ryu Wangjin’s eyes looking at such Ara not ordinary.

“Seeming delicious!”
