“How fortunate the two together. We only heard as story so not well knowing what person awakener Lee Gyuseong...”

“Simple person. And possessing warm heart.”

“What matter. What, always matters piled like mountain not? Just Ara Hongryeon Guild nowadays seeming doing well and confirming awakening Lee Gyuseong’s influence a bit large seeming so contacted for greeting.”

“Heum. So.”

Jeong Soyeon who frequently contacted Awakener Headquarters from the time famous as youngest grade 6 awakener so atmosphere treating a bit casually.

People looking at Han Seokjun suddenly repeating same words wondering why.

Then Han Seokjun smiling and continuing words.

“The matter you worrying probably none ordinarily. Don’t try to deceive and just treat sincerely.”

“...”

Awakener Headquarters personnel exactly like stabbed hollow.

The words Gyuseong simple, that seeming hinting no matter of going abroad because of greed.

At Han Seokjun’s words exactly like seeing through all inside the vehicle brief silence continuing.

* * *

“How?”

“Cute!”

Flower decoration, wearing tiger pajamas and sticking Mamon’s hairpin, finished Ara brightly smiling and standing in front of mirror.

Gradually if going seeming able to arrive at promised place matching time so me also finishing remaining preparation.

“Shall go!”

“Yeah!”

We greeting kids and coming out. Soon catching taxi and heading to familiar place.

Promised time still about 30 minutes remaining.

But fine waiting at promised place.

None other than main house the promised place.

‘Contacted guild master again and said see at our house.’

Necessary? But right after call ending mother taking out words of wanting to directly treat cuisine made with my ingredients.

Mother hard but me also thinking not bad opinion so immediately changing promised place to house.

Guests a bit burdensome possible.

But unable to treat food made with my ingredients at restaurant not!

‘Necessarily want to feed!’

To small citizen me government related personnel including public servants all feeling like amazing people. Directly saying such words to parties may laugh but how me feeling so.

Entering house mother of course and Seona also together. Father not visible.

“Ara came!!”

Seona in kitchen running with bare socks.

Then looking at Ara wearing tiger pajamas and grabbing heart as is and collapsing as is running.

Not hurt?

“Kr heuk. Too strong...”

“Lee Seona Seona!! Fine!!!”

Ara running trotting and starting to imitate something like CPR where saw. At that appearance Seona making suffocating sound once more and dying with a pik!

Eyes a bit close and pretend dying?

“Lee Seona Seona!!!”

Ultimately mother coming out from kitchen because of screaming Ara.

“Oh my. Our Ara came?”

“Great Lord Lord! Lee Seona Seona big matter!”

“Our puppy, Seona fine. Just in time yesterday what Gyuseong requested all made shall taste once?”

“Dog gum!”

Ara’s eyes sparkling.

But soon coming to senses and grabbing Seona and wailing.

“Not fine! Lee Seona Seona~!!”

“Ya, Lee Seona. Stop teasing our Ara and get up and help mom.”

Seona not even pretending to hear even poking with foot. But both eyes appearance wide open toward Ara.

If pretending dying close eyes at least?

Sighing once and ultimately going to confirm the dog gum said completed.

“Ooh.”

Appearance cut well into long jerky size. Looking exactly like dried pollack torn long.

Touching hard. And the dryer placed beside still operating seeming still drying dog gum.

‘Amount a bit many.’

Made using all milk and agar powder bought without any thought. Probably amount our Meong meong able to eat for several years?

Hard making recall jerky or pollack. This me also wanting to eat?

Chew!

Texture unlike expectation not that hard. Middle feeling of chewy and hard? But that subtly addictive.

‘Really seeming dogs liking?’

Taste also. No, unable to be no taste.

Exactly like chewing hard caramel diligently eating dog gum before I knew it Seona appearing suddenly.

“Oppa dog?”

“You also eat?”

“Dog gum?”

“Delicious.”

Then Ara proud of saving Seona from one side and mother who praised such Ara also coming.

“Made with milk so fine eating. Mom also ate and delicious.”

“Eh? Mom also ate?”

Seona soon receiving the dog gum me handing and worrying with serious expression.

Me also so at first but unlike liquid becoming hard solid so rejection a bit less.

“Just name dog gum think as jerky. Or fine thinking as caramel.”

By type carrot, paprika, tomato, sweet potato, goso goso versions. Eating one each everyone not strong sweet taste healthy feeling fully emitting.

“Fine making as person snack.”

Ara also before I knew it holding one dog gum each in both hands and chewing.

“Um! Delicious!”

“Less dried exactly like pudding. Later Gyuseong, fine making pudding like dessert with your crops and eating?”

“Please, mother.”

Dessert more hands than thought.

So please make. Unfilial son wanting to obtain and eat.

“Um~! This better than thought. Exactly like MaXjju.”

“MaXjju?”

A, that fruit taste caramel?

Less stimulating taste than that. And a bit tougher feeling?

But less stimulating not less delicious. Anyway my crops entered.

Like that enjoying the mysterious dog gum party then talk came from Jeong Soyeon.

-Departed earlier and about 30 minutes remaining!

Oh, not time for this.

Me immediately replying thanks and helping mother and making food in kitchen.

Before I knew it me also quite cooking skill proficient.

Of course unable to compare to Jaeseong or mother but anyway have to make food for our kids a lot.

‘Of course mostly filling belly with raw crops not cooked...’

Still skill much increased due to cuisine occasionally doing.

Like that cuisines starting to complete.

Today’s main menu goso goso potato noodles. And side dishes eggplant stir-fry, tomato egg stir-fry, salad with paprika, carrot, cucumber entered.

All made with crops not items but taste no difference so worth expecting reactions.

And around cuisine all finishing, just in time contact of arrived coming.

“Not rude. And if possible wanting to let the two also, and first seeing guests today eat delicious...”

Ara nodding and responding.

“Delicious sharing and eating!”

“Aigo. Our Ara still cute. What this clothes! Where obtained such cute and pretty clothes?!”

When me carefully greeting people with both eyes widened approaching me with urgent body movements.

“Hello! Awakener Headquarters, director Jeon Yeongju!”
