Chapter 139
Tock-
Tick-
After tearing open the paper wrapper, he peeled off the foil wrapper.
Then, a square chocolate bar appeared halfway exposed.
“Want to try one?”
Dojae waved a chocolate bar back and forth in front of the child.
But the reaction wasn’t exactly enthusiastic.
“What is that! I don’t like it! I won’t eat it!”
The child frowned, showing no sign of letting go of their hostility.
Dojae realized his mistake. While chocolate is undeniably sweet and smooth once you know its taste, to the child it was just a hard, flat, black bar.
It didn’t have a strong smell or anything stimulating either, so there was nothing to spark their interest.
Realizing his mistake, Dojae pulled out a different food item from his pocket.
Or rather, ingredients would be a more fitting description.
“How about this?”
A large chunk of meat in a transparent sanitary bag.
It was meat he’d packed in advance, considering various situations.
“Meat?”
The child shows interest.
Any sentient humanoid creature couldn’t help but be interested in this meat.
Because this chunk of meat is pork belly, one of the cuts most beloved by Koreans.
It’s premium Korean pork, with the perfect ratio of fat and lean meat.
“Just wait a little longer. I’ll grill it up deliciously for you soon.”
Swoosh-
Dojae dragged over a flat stone slab from among the scattered rocks nearby.
Seeing this, the child grew even more wary than before, but merely kept its guard up while glancing at the ingredients in Dojae’s hands.
