Ding!
“Um? A! Photo came.”
“What?”
Safely finishing the interview and leaving the excited group members behind Lee Seona confirmed the talk.
Before Gyuseong left, Lee Seona who confirmed the photos and videos taken with Ara immediately asked to send to herself too.
“...Jackpot.”
And looking at the tremendously piled photos and videos Lee Seona dopamine started exploding.
“Took this many and kept mouth tightly shut until now?”
“What so? Let me see a bit too.”
At Lee Seona’s grumbling her friend casually stuck the head in. Soon Seona’s friend who saw the innumerable taken Ara’s photos also widened both eyes and said.
“Wow, that kid earlier?”
“Yeah.”
“Exactly like a pictorial. Where is this again?”
“Right.”
Most of the photos and videos Gyuseong sent taken in Gluttony’s dungeon so the background also fantastic.
Ara’s photos taken with beautiful base behind created an effect of mood becoming good just by looking.
“What is this bear? Oh, this slime.”
“Dunno.”
Passed as if not knowing but Lee Seona noticed the bear taken in the photo is the bear doll Ara brought home last time.
‘Wasn’t a doll?’
Then momentarily fooled and passed but seeing the photo and video not a doll.
“Kruk.”
Monopolizing this cute thing alone.
Can’t forgive.
Lee Seona tightly clenched the fist and resolved.
Ara’s cuteness not something only themselves know.
Cuteness saves the world.
Lee Seona sincerely thought so.
“Good.”
“Hm?”
“I, want to make vlog.”
“Vlog?”
“Uh. Have to closely report our Ara’s daily life. Then inform Ara’s cuteness to the whole world!”
“...”
Seona’s friend looking at Lee Seona starting nonsense shook head ‘starting again’.
“For now have to start with these photos and videos received now. Then I directly take photos... a, then need camera. No? Just take with phone fine?”
Looking at Seona starting muttering alone the group members gradually started widening distance. Already quite familiar seeming natural movement.
“Seona really unique. Directly saw those famous awakeners and even interviewed but now not in mind at all.”
“I still heart pounding. You saw that? Even online now fuss.”
“Hey, hey. I already text came from professor. Asking if this true. Kekeke.”
Whether rumors already spread throughout the school every time Seona’s group passed stinging gazes concentrated.
People who know the face a bit even to the extent of somehow talking and asking about the interview.
But actually Lee Seona the start of all this incident mind stolen elsewhere so the group members’ words understanding.
“A, professor.”
“Came out in socks.”
“Interview already ended but...”
Leaving the group members’ muttering behind Lee Seona still in her own world diligently making plans.
“For now make blog too... no, just uploading to nutube account better? Then have to edit photos separately and upload? Have to receive permission from oppa too.”
* * *
“Registered. By the way really unique familiar. Aiyu, cute.”
I who came to the government awakener management department with the help of hyung Hanul and Jeong Soyeon who followed together could finish familiar registration soon.
Ara diligently sucking the stick candy the management department affiliated civil servant handed and receiving cuteness.
“I, lick, cute.”
Ara making a solemn expression and licking the stick candy held in one hand ridiculous.
But rather that appearance captured women’s hearts whether the passing employees to the employee who handed the candy all couldn’t take eyes off Ara.
“Really Mr. Gyuseong received blessing.”
“Haha...”
Even Jeong Soyeon saying to me with a face full of envy no words. Truth too.
“Anyway fortunate well resolved. Thank you both for helping.”
“Uahaha! For our younger brother Gyuseong and Ara this degree! Anyway the way returning to the guild so while at it!”
“A, and separately something to give to the two.”
At my words Jeong Soyeon and hyung Hanul’s expressions unhideable expectation revealed. This time brought something worth expecting so if expecting better for me too.
“Not ordinary. But can’t give here so give in a place without people.”
“Heo! First time younger brother Gyuseong saying to that extent! This if expecting too much and disappointed rather wound?”
“Fine to expect. This something special I can’t cultivate.”
“What? Can’t cultivate? Rather expectation completely deflated.”
Hyung Hanul said as if puzzled.
Well my crops really cheat. But the World Tree’s mushroom even not my crop boasted tremendous flavor and scent.
We exchanged greetings with the awakener management department employees and headed to the guild. Because hyung Hanul brought his own car could arrive at the guild soon.
“Give here.”
“Hm? Inside the car?”
“Yes. A, by any chance dislike smell inside the car?”
“Not particularly matter.”
At hyung Hanul’s words I took out the mushroom entrusted to Bokkeum. Even contained in the container the moment taking out from the bag immediately the fragrance started spreading.
“This...?!”
“Wow, what smell is this?”
Expected reactions burst out and I carefully opened the container. Then inside two chunks of the World Tree mushroom cut in half were.
The already thick mushroom’s scent vibrated in all directions. Before I knew it Ara and me, and hyung Hanul and Jeong Soyeon all forcibly swallowing the flowing saliva.
“Seup. Mushroom newly discovered this time. But not ordinary mushroom.”
“Gulp. Exactly looks so.”
“Mana thickly felt?”
The two as high rank awakeners first examined the mushroom’s effect. Then created surprising admiration.
“Mana recovery?!”
“This can’t be!”
Hehe. Worth surprising.
Until now not that mana recovery type items none. But extremely rare and all discovered only as potion types.
Meaning discovered as intact potion means can obtain only in treasure chests inside dungeons. Treasure chests themselves hard to find so absolutely not common potions.
“Give one chunk each. I also luckily obtained item.”
Actually harvested a basket full.
But not a lie. A mushroom that couldn’t obtain if no Gomgomi so luckily obtained right.
“Fine to give such precious thing to us?”
Somehow hyung Hanul showed a burdensome air. Thinking of the appearance of laying iron plate on the face and rushing until now only surprising.
“Really this a bit burdensome. Name just saw World Tree’s mushroom? Where on earth obtained such thing?”
Jeong Soyeon also hesitated as if afraid to touch hands.
Then Ara who was blankly looking at the mushroom dripping saliva whined.
“Lee Gyuseong Gyuseong. Want to eat.”
“Kr hmm.”
Nothing can be done.
I took out the cut mushroom brought as spare from Bokkeum and gave to Ara. Then Ara without any hesitation ate the mushroom cut easy to eat.
“Uum! Delicious!”
Hyung Hanul and Jeong Soyeon couldn’t close the jaws looking at Ara satisfying.
“Th, that fine to give so recklessly?”
“Heo, hehehe...”
Enjoyably appreciating such two’s reactions I nodded.
“No matter how precious our Ara equal? And the two also precious people to me. This degree just receive.”
“Heo, can’t not admire at our younger brother Gyuseong’s chest wide like the sea even if not wanting to. Receive gratefully!”
Picked one chunk of mushroom with a big hand.
Then hyung Hanul slightly tore and ate the mushroom on the spot.
“Uum?!!”
A face that received tremendous shock.
To the extent I watching worried.
“Hy, hyung? Okay?”
“...”
Instead of hyung Hanul with no words Jeong Soyeon casually picked her share of mushroom.
“I’ll receive well, Mr. Gyuseong. Sorry always only receiving.”
“A, no. Miss Soyeon also always helped me. This degree nothing.”
“Puha!!!”
Finally hyung Hanul woke up.
When he opened the mouth the already vibrating mushroom scent filled the car inside full.
“This crazy! Revolution of the gourmet world! Have to inform right away!”
“Hy, hyung. Calm down.”
The World Tree’s mushroom no method I directly cultivate so wanted to transmit little by little only to known people. No thought of widely informing that much.
“And this! Written recovers a small amount of mana but holds much more mana than I thought! Jackpot!”
“That degree?”
Jeong Soyeon tilted head.
Then as if regrettable slightly tore only the corner of the mushroom and put in the mouth.
“Uum!!”
Somehow a reaction similar to hyung Hanul.
Seeing there is a reason getting along well while bickering.
“Uuu. This degree know a large amount but regrettable. Want to send to the research department and see...”
“A! That don’t worry. As it was separately brought mushroom to give as sample to the research department too. Brought something to give to the guild master too.”
“...Our younger brother Gyuseong has all thoughts!”
Haha. All, natural thought not?
Anyway seemed brain paralyzed because of the mushroom. And seeing a more intense reaction than when I ate I obtained one certainty.
‘Indeed gourmet also people who experienced a lot feel more.’
No matter how good wine to people who haven’t drunk much liquor and don’t like just felt astringent like gourmet also seemed a similar context exists.
Probably hyung Hanul or Jeong Soyeon felt more diverse tastes and scents from this mushroom than me.
“Younger brother Gyuseong.”
“Yes, hyung.”
“By any chance one... can request a bit?”
“Oh, what?”
Today somehow hyung Hanul seeming more careful than usual.
“Th... a bit hard to say this but by any chance can cultivate beans too?”
“Beans?”
Suddenly why beans but possible.
“Of course. Haven’t planted yet but.”
“Ooh. Then can request a bit? Know a bit so saying plant this plant that to younger brother Gyuseong, but please really want to obtain beans.”
“Fine. Anyway my work is farming so that degree.”
But hyung Hanul’s words a bit strange.
Usually would have said really want to try eating but this time saying want to obtain?
‘Is there some reason?’
For now have to know what bean.
“Beans also many kinds any bean fine?”
“Request soybean. The meju bean we commonly know right?”
“A, doenjang?”
“Right. That bean used when making doenjang.”
“Going to make doenjang?”
“Um, well.”
Something the answer ambiguous. Something happened?
Anyway a matter I also interested. To begin with already planted chili pepper in Gluttony’s dungeon right. Then the remaining of course meju bean.
If Korean doenjang, gochujang not!
“Today return and plant right away.”
“Thank you, younger brother.”
I also become curious.
Indeed what taste the Korean table made with the beans and chili pepper I harvested will be?
