Chapter 259

Outing

“Hmm… so.”

Kim Jin-ah, who had been somewhere to purchase land, rested her chin on her hand.

Then, she looked at me with a dumbfounded expression.

“You want to rest, but you don’t know how to rest?”

“Yes, that’s right. I’ve never really rested properly before.”

As I nodded and confirmed, Kim Jin-ah’s expression became even more bizarre.

That was because people live through rest.

Even she, who was busy with work, would look at the stars in the night sky and crack open a can of beer when things got tough.

Even the employees who work in Otherworld have annual leave.

In addition, the country also designates legal holidays to help its citizens lead better lives.

‘Well, I acknowledge it.’

I understood Kim Jin-ah’s expression, but I couldn’t help it.

What could I do if I didn’t know?

Originally, there were various people in the world.

Those who have not lived in the same environment as me can never understand.

“Hmm, if Guild Master wants to rest…”

Kim Jin-ah, perched on the sofa in the conference room, pondered with a serious expression.

“I’m really, really busy with work, you know? But I can take annual leave and have a drink with Guild Master.”

“…Huh?”

I said I wanted to rest, so what was that all of a sudden?

Swish!

It was at that moment that someone appeared in the air.

“I can participate too, Dong-hoon.”

The scent of peony filled the space, which had previously been odorless.

The unique body odor of Dark Emperor Gi So-yul.

‘She’s improved a lot.’

I admired inwardly.

I sensed that she was hiding nearby, but I didn’t know she was controlling her scent as well.

Of course.

Kim Jin-ah probably didn’t know she was hiding.

“Eek! You startled me…!”

Judging by how startled she was.

“W, were you nearby?”

Kim Jin-ah stuttered, her face flushed.

“No, Dark Emperor…! I told you to only escort me when I go out! This is Peach Blossom Land!”

“Ah, I recently had some opportunities to improve my stealth skills…”

“Is that so? Haa…”

As Kim Jin-ah sighed and shook her head.

I spoke again.

“Well, anyway. Drinking is fine, but… please recommend something else too. I think I need to rest for a while, but I can’t just drink every time, can I?”

“Something else… Hmm.”

Kim Jin-ah frowned.

“Well, I’ve never done anything other than drink.”

“…Huh?”

What, this person.

Was she in a similar category to me?

“Well, studying or organizing research… other than that, it’s beer, I guess. I haven’t had time for that lately because I’ve been busy.”

“Wow.”

“You should ask Dark Emperor instead of me. That’ll be faster.”

“….”

Kim Jin-ah and I turned to look at Gi So-yul.

Then.

Gi So-yul blinked with a blank expression.

“Me…?”

“Yes, you.”

As I nodded, she shrugged and held up a dagger.

“I don’t do anything but train…?”

Hoo.

This…

Was a total mess.

Leaving Kim Jin-ah and Gi So-yul, I arrived at the place where the Druid and Asura were.

The Druid Kwon So-ye had risen to 856th place in the rankings this time.

Asura Im Soo-jin had reached 901st place.

Ah, for reference.

Soe-jumeok, who was once a high Ranker, was ranked 550th.

After the last incident.

Having completely abandoned greed and pleasure, he was said to be almost exclusively engaged in secluded training to regain his past glory.

“Hmm, resting, you say.”

Kwon So-ye smiled.

“There’s a lot, Guild Master. There’s tennis and golf, and since it’s winter now, you could go skiing. Or you could go fishing. Or, you could go to a hot place and take pictures, and in Guild Master’s case, you can easily go on overseas trips, right? Hmm… Also, you could enjoy cultural activities like plays or movies. Or, games? VR is incredibly well-made these days, you know? Try finding a hobby.”

Tudada…!

I was overwhelmed by the sea of information that poured out as soon as I asked.

Wow.

There were so many things like that?

“Oh, by the way, I heard that the recently released and are interesting, so why don’t you watch those first? Should I make a reservation for you?”

“…Would you?”

I blankly nodded.

Movies?

What were those?

Things like that.

I had never seen one in my life.

Yeah.

Let’s experience everything this opportunity.

Wisdom is said to deepen when you’ve experienced many things.

Uiwang City, Lake Baekun.

The undeveloped area behind it.

Scratch!

As Demir stuck the shovel into the dirt.

“Is it here?”

“Yes, exactly from here to over there.”

Kim Jin-ah nodded, confirming the size of the site with her fingers.

“I hope we can express something that symbolizes our Otherworld.”

“Hmm, something that symbolizes Otherworld, that sounds interesting.”

Demir smiled.

Creating something and expressing something artistically was what the Stone Clan liked most.

“The goal is to create a place to install a Portal in the central area overlooking the lake view, right?”

“Yes, and I also want to install a store, an exhibition hall, and an auction house exclusively for Demir Workshop.”

“That’s a good idea.”

Snap!

Demir snapped his fingers.

Then, swish! Swish! Ten of his subordinates appeared.

They were stocky dwarves, but all of them were Lord-class Skeletons.

“Is everyone ready! The city of Peach Blossom Land isn’t finished yet, but this will be fun.”

“Are we proceeding with this at the same time as that, Demir?”

Swish!

It was at that moment that a Skeleton with long ears appeared beside him.

It was Eldrin, the Moonlight, who was once the queen of the Forest Clan.

Now that she was familiar with Polymorph, her beauty, with her blonde hair flowing, shone brightly.

Demir, with his reddish muscles, smiled.

“That’s right. In fact, the workshop in Apgujeong was destroyed. Rebuilding the store is urgent.”

“I see.”

As Eldrin nodded, Demir continued.

“Besides, there are many trees here. I’m thinking of harmonizing this place with the forest, like our city of Peach Blossom Land.”

“Then I can be of help.”

“That’s right, we need to prepare sacrifices and perform an incantation ritual. This time, I was told to pay special attention to security.”

The reason for acquiring the new site this time was ultimately security.

The goal was to create a boundary strong enough to withstand external invasions, even without Ju Dong-hoon.

“As long as the sacrifices are valuable, there’s no problem.”

“I’m thinking of using S-class items.”

“Oh, how many?”

“Five to ten?”

Demir can now produce S-class weapons, accessories, and armor on his own.

It’s a work that melts away energy and time, but what can’t he do if he can cast a spell?

“That should be enough.”

Eldrin smiled.

“Let’s prepare diligently.”

“Kuhahaha, good!”

Demir laughed coolly.

Then, he looked at his subordinates.

“Guys, I asked if you’re ready!”

“Yes, Demir!”

“What’s the status of the minerals?!”

“Since the Emperor came this time, they’re overflowing again!”

The land where Ju Dong-hoon stays is always overflowing with minerals.

“Then that’s it! Now, pick up your hammers!”

What symbolizes Otherworld is the owner!

An inspiration came to Demir’s mind.

Something that could only express the owner.

A movie theater in Samseong-dong.

Kwon So-ye, who listened to my request, had reserved a total of six movie tickets.

How could I go alone to enjoy cultural life?

I am the one who leads the Skeletons.

I wanted to let the absolute beings of each world experience the culture of Earth.

So.

“Look at that girl’s skin. It’s so white. She looks exotic, but why is she so pretty? Is she some kind of celebrity?”

“The woman next to her is no joke either? She looks… incredibly sacred? You know, if there was a noble saint in the Middle Ages, she would have looked like that.”

“Wow, the men are no joke either. Are they all hunters with muscles and physiques like that? Just by looking at them, they could be S-class or Rankers?”

“…They’re probably not high Rankers? They’re all faces we don’t know.”

“You crazy bastard, if they were high Rankers, this place would already be in chaos.”

The result was like this.

Even though I came wearing a mask.

I couldn’t stop the whispering.

That’s because the Polymorph forms of our absolute beings all had outstanding looks.

“Let’s go, guys…”

I muttered, wearing the mask deeply.

I, Tae-yang, Arin, Kaden, Dana, and Mu-gak looked around each other, getting lost.

I had also invited Eldrin and Demir.

But they said they had a lot of work to do?

They said that creating and building something was rest for them, so I told them to do so.

When I’m focused on training, I don’t like it when someone tells me to rest either.

“Hoo.”

I, who had already taken the wrong path three times, sighed.

‘What.’

I had to have done it to know.

From finding the reserved tickets to entering the movie theater.

Everything was digital, not analog, so it was difficult to adapt.

“Professor! I think we have to go there! People are pressing something there!”

It would have been very difficult if it weren’t for Arin, who was quick to adapt.

“Haha, as expected of Arin. You’re smart.”

After stroking her head wildly, we watched the movie.

The content wasn’t bad.

was a movie where you could appreciate the great nature of another world, and Tae-yang struggled to admire it throughout the whole thing.

Since it was explained in the first announcement that it was basic etiquette not to make noise in the movie theater.

Still.

After she did it a few times, I immediately dispelled her for 10 minutes.

After that, she watched quietly like she had a bee in her bonnet.

The story of was crazy.

We were all immersed in the content, which added twist after twist and then another twist on top of that.

‘Ah.’

So this is what resting is.

Feeling what cultural life was like, I strolled around.

“Professor! What’s this? Wow, it’s pretty!”

I also enjoyed shopping with our Arin, an absolute being who had died without properly spending her girlhood.

“Master, what is this? People are hitting that object hard, insisting that they are strong… they are all weaklings.”

I didn’t bother with the punching machine with Mu-gak.

Aside from having to pay for it, it would be a nuisance to the machine owner if it broke…?

Just as I was enjoying a date with my subordinates to the fullest.

Noisy.

A very noisy sound was heard from somewhere.

“Hmm?”

The Supreme Clarity Heart Method sent a signal.

Also, intuition warned me.

It was telling me that someone with hostility was approaching.

At the same time.

“It’s, it’s Changwang!”

“Changwang? 10th in the world ranking? Ah, no! It’s 11th now, right?”

“Why is Changwang in Korea?”

“He’s holding a spear! Run, run away!”

Ah.

I knew after hearing people’s voices.

Who was sending hostility to me.

‘Jin Jazi.’

In the past, when I came out after finishing Delilah’s trial.

The Chinese Old Man I had a quarrel with.

Simpanchang’s master.

‘What, did he say that the Pear Blossom Spear was at a higher level than the Tae Yang-chang?’

The people who were clustered together split like the Red Sea.

It was a sight of them making way for Changwang’s intense momentum.

And the place where Changwang’s gaze was directed was.

‘Me.’

He knew exactly where I was.
