Chapter 39

Don’t Raise on Your Own

Indeed.

It’s a popular idol.

If even a rumor of meeting a pitch-black guy wearing a bird-beak mask arises what would happen.

Would become quite troubled right?

It’s natural.

Consoling myself I returned home.

Bark! Bark!

“Yeah, Arong. Were you playing well?”

Sister whether went to do part-time wasn’t home.

I roughly stroked Arong, then took out the carrier used when going to Japan last time.

Groan.

Arong loitered beside then whined with a sullen face.

“Don’t worry, Arong. This time going tomorrow and coming the day after.”

Lee Mun-yeong said sleeping one day comfortably would be better and paid the airline ticket instead.

Stay at a place I want, and only ask for the receipt later.

Since legally disguising plausibly, it’s convenient.

And can’t see our goddesses’ faces, but helping so this Tokyo concert can proceed safely right?

With just that the fan is happy.

Glory, yes.

“If going this time, I’ll buy a lot of clothes for you Arong.”

Bark!

The next day morning.

Tokyo, Japan.

Even though Japan is only the second time, finished the entry procedure leisurely pretending like a person who came several times.

The bird-beak mask and cane put in the carrier also passed safely.

“Hello, Secretary Lee. Did you wait long?”

Met Lee Mun-yeong in the airport lobby.

“No, I also just came. The sunglasses are cool?”

“Thank you. Newly prepared one at the duty free.”

“Suits well. Is the luggage only that?”

“Yes. Because only staying one day.”

Lee Mun-yeong came first taking the plane last night.

Loaded the carrier in the rental car she rented, and sat in the passenger seat.

“Aren’t you tired?”

“Slept soundly as soon as coming so fine. Going straight to the hotel where IAB is is fine right?”

“Of course. I want to pray to cure quickly. But··· um···.”

Asked the point curious throughout.

“May I ask by what connection this request was received?”

“Of course.”

Previously when IAB was an ad model for Kanggeon Pharmaceutical’s vitamin drink, at a social contribution event gathering IAB’s agency representative and executives also attended.

Among them one was Lee Mun-yeong’s school senior.

“With that connection often contacted and got along, this time the main vocal member caught a severe cold, troubled what to do. A member who also missed the performance due to condition disorder in the last tour too···.”

I nodded with a regrettable face.

“The person must be extremely upset. Would have prepared hard with the members. Fans will also be greatly disappointed.”

Lee Mun-yeong gently smiled.

“‘Plague Doctor’-nim, are you an IAB fan?”

What’s there to hide.

Honestly nodded.

“Yes.”

“Open the glove box.”

“······?”

Puzzled I opened the glove box.

An IAB Tokyo concert ticket came out.

The date is today.

“······?!”

When I held the ticket high and didn’t know what to do, Lee Mun-yeong laughed out loud.

“These days thinking where is there a man who dislikes IAB so prepared.”

“Thank you! Thank you, Secretary Lee!”

I shouted a silent cheer.

Uaaaa!

Seeing!

Our goddesses!

***

The hotel IAB is staying.

Exchanged greetings meeting a high person of IAB’s agency.

This requester.

“Heard the story from Mun-yeong. Please take good care.”

Bow.

I only bowed my head without words.

The requester was quite flustered seeing me covering the face with all pitch-black clothes sunglasses and mask, but guided to the next room where the sick member is.

Most other members and staff went to the performance hall because of rehearsal.

“Yesterday while matching the stage choreography movement almost collapsed. Because sick became more emotional, also cried a lot upset.”

Oh dear, oh dear.

“Didn’t talk about the treatment prayer right?”

“Yeah, completely doesn’t know. Mun-yeong earnestly requested. Saying it’s good to proceed without the person knowing.”

In the next room only staff’s luggage, no people.

“Right beyond this wall.”

I nodded.

Beyond the wall. A green [Contagious Disease Patient] was still at a low position.

[System]

-‘Plague Doctor Mask’ wearing effect: Skill MP cost reduced by 20%

Standing in front of the wall made the sign of the cross, clasped both hands pretending to pray.

[This is a Contagious Disease Patient. Do you wish to treat?]

[(Estimated MP cost 70)]

Get better, get better, yap.

“Treat, yes.”

A warm colored heat haze slid beyond the wall.

[System]

-Used ‘Plague Treatment’.

-‘Plague Treatment’ proficiency +1

-Experience +3.02%

[MP 94/150]

The green [Contagious Disease Patient] disappeared.

Turned to Lee Mun-yeong and nodded.

“You worked hard, ‘Plague Doctor’-nim.”

“···Is it over?”

“Yes. Please go confirm. We’ll go down to the lobby.”

“Uh···. Yeah.”

The requester went out of the room with a dazed face.

I elegantly bowed my head greeting toward the wall.

See you later at the performance hall, goddess-nim.

Lee Mun-yeong who saw that appearance burst into small laughter.

“Before catching people’s eyes, shall we go out quickly?”

Instead of the suspicious bird-beak mask, wore sunglasses and mask again and came out of the room.

“For singers the throat is no different from life. Even opening one overseas concert like this enormous funds are invested, and profit comes in.”

While pressing the elevator button Lee Mun-yeong continued the words.

“Since experienced the ‘Plague Doctor’-nim’s amazing treatment prayer effect, even preparing for when help is needed again will keep the secret.”

I nodded.

When treating Jin Se-hyeok by chance at first also thought similarly.

Isn’t the maximum demand place of my ‘Plague Treatment’ skill the entertainment industry?

···like that.

Ordinary people regard ‘Cold? Go to the hospital take medicine and rest soundly one or two days and it gets better’ lightly, but for those who can have large amounts or opportunities fly away in that one or two days it’s an obstacle to quickly clear.

Waiting briefly in the lobby, the appearance of someone tightly wrapped in face surrounded by people hurriedly going out was visible.

The IAB member I treated a little earlier.

As expected a pro.

Look at going to rehearsal right away as soon as better.

“Really thank you.”

The requester approached and bowed his head to me.

“The fever went down, muscle pain also all disappeared. The voice also returned cleanly as originally.”

“Didn’t think it strange?”

“That.”

No other people around, but the requester lowered the voice more.

“When teacher prayed, it seems fell asleep blinking because of the medicine. Thinking the medicine is really strong, like that.”

Tap tap.

[Please make refrain from taking medicine.]

All better, if continuing to take medicine only burdens the body.

“Ah···. Yes, I’ll do that. I’ll also deposit the fee soon. Really thank you for coming a long way.”

Exchanged greetings and came out of the hotel.

Lee Mun-yeong also saying since came to Japan after a long time will play then go, dropped me off in front of the hotel I reserved.

“See you later in Korea, ‘Plague Doctor’-nim.”

“Yes, please go carefully. And this request and concert ticket, really thank you.”

Politely bowed my head greeting.

Lee Mun-yeong laughed out loud.

“Don’t forget to collect receipts for expense processing.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Lee Mun-yeong’s car left.

I entered the hotel with excited steps.

The plan made in advance all flew away but doesn’t matter.

My life’s first concert viewing.

Seems left for today.

Good that rejected all Hertz and Actisi concert tickets in the meantime.

Checked in, as soon as entering the room opened the carrier and changed clothes.

Also didn’t forget video calling Mother that arrived well.

-[Really calling early.]

“Haha. Did you eat lunch?”

-[Of course ate. Bong-sik you?]

“Now trying to go eat. Is there anything needed?”

-[None. Just play carefully and come. Dangerous so don’t wander late at night.]

“Yes.”

Finished the short call.

I took a selfie so the hotel outside scenery is visible, then uploaded to the family group chat.

[Kang Hyun-seo][Pudding]

[Dad][The bread bought then]

[Kang Hyun-seo][Not bread but manju, Dad]

[Mom][If there’s a decent bag for Arong buy one.]

Profile pictures all Arong’s photo.

I smiled and replied.

[Yes]

Searched nearby famous restaurants and had a meal, then headed straight to the performance hall. Searching it said good to go early to the performance hall.

“Wow···.”

Why it says good to go early, knew as soon as arriving.

There were tremendously many people.

For safety took off the sunglasses, and wore a mask instead.

Looking around it seems only I don’t have a light stick, so stood in line for a long time and entered the place selling MD.

All written sold out in Chinese characters.

Fortunately the light stick had plenty of stock so could buy one.

Came outside, this time selfie so the large photo banner hung at the performance hall and light stick are well visible.

Click, click.

And uploaded to SNS.

[Came to see the concert #GoddessIAB #Tokyo]

Immediately comments were posted.

-IAB concert??? Tokyo???? Tokyo?????

-This petty guy as soon as exam ended jumped out then went to Japan alone againㅡㅡ

-Fuck envious

-How did you get the ticket?

-Senior was an IAB fanㅎ

-Bong-sik was rich

-Went to Tokyo??? Alone???

-Enviousㅜㅜ I also want to go.. I also like IABㅜㅜ

This taste is why everyone uploads boast posts on SNS.

But.

When did my follows increase like this?

Looking most were juniors known this year or people who did group assignments together. There were also some people completely unable to guess who.

Is Lee Mun-yeong also among these?

A short while later.

The concert started.

The ticket I received was the seat where the stage is best visible.

IAB members with no one sick, wandered the stage with appearances full of vitality.

“IAB! IAB! Uooo!”

On the way out after the concert ended, treated [Contagious Disease Patient] fans visible nearby as many as seen.

A proud day.

***

The next day.

A famous pet supplies store in Shinjuku.

There were full of clothes that seemed cute if put on Arong, so held the basket and swept in.

Also one pretty new carrier for Arong.

Came out close to 200,000 yen.

An amount similar to this treatment prayer fee.

“······.”

Timidly said to take out a few clothes and calculated.

As money increases I overconsume without realizing.

Let’s be careful.

Later if I also want to get a house in Seoul and get married have to save a bit.

[Sorry, may I organize the items here and go?]

Seemed cumbersome to carry all, so asked the staff with the help of the translation app.

The staff readily nodded.

[Yes, of course!]

[Thank you.]

So not to be a hindrance opened the carrier, and neatly put the newly bought Arong’s clothes.

Also put in the carrier.

The staff watched then helped.

Greeted thank you in Japanese, and held the heavier carrier and carrier.

[Thank you.]

Greeted again then came out of the store.

Boarded the train from Shinjuku Station to the airport. At the airport also smoothly proceeded with the exit procedure.

Afterwards bought gifts for parents at the duty free, and entered the airline lounge.

Thanks to Lee Mun-yeong booking business class.

Click, click.

“Hmm···.”

Took a selfie commemorating the first airport lounge, but didn’t upload to the family group chat or SNS.

Because later seems like I’ll get hit on the back by Mother saying spending money carelessly.

Not even my money spent.

Ding.

Lee Mun-yeong sent a DM.

-[Hello, Plague Doctor-nim! Informed the requester met yesterday that the Plague Doctor-nim is an IAB fan, and he says he wants to give MD as a giftㅎ]

[Really?]

-[Yes! As soon as received in Korea, I’ll convey^^]

[Thank you!]

2 million won and even concert and MD gift.

Really can’t not be a trip where the heart becomes abundant···.

Ah.

Didn’t buy pudding to give Sister.

By the way brought the cane for nothing.

Well, no different from a weapon so good that there’s no use for it.

At that time.

“······?”

The lounge entrance became noisy, then about 5 people entered surrounding one person.

“You can’t film.”

The one surrounded as if protected is a celebrity?

Wearing large sunglasses like me. The ratio was also quite good.

But my gaze headed elsewhere.

“Is Hyun-su okay?”

The person moving together soothing the person estimated as a celebrity.

Above the head a bright red [False One] was floating.

The celebrity gently smiled.

“Yes, thanks to the manager.”

The cane is in a state put in the carrier.

Still if holding an item recognized as a weapon the ‘Divine Punishment’ skill can activate, so mustn’t go near that person.

A short while later.

A [False One] sat in the seat next to me on the plane.

In a small voice schedule this and that to the celebrity next to.

Noisy so wore the headset.

About 20 minutes later.

[System]

-Observed ‘False One’ for a certain time.

-‘Divine Punishment’ attack power temporarily increases by 10.

No.

No matter to hit so don’t raise on your own···.
