Chapter 51: Grandma Lecia’s Grand Entrance

Grandma Lecia’s Grand Entrance
According to the suspicious viewer, the most important thing about decorating a lair is to do it the way you want.
Following this advice, I focused on decorating the lair in the way I truly desired.
‘A comfortable and cozy place where anyone can drop by without feeling burdened.’
The comfortable and cozy part was just my preference.
The idea of a place where anyone could drop by without feeling burdened was a personal wish that arose from interacting with people.
‘Since I’ve always received help without properly repaying it.’
It was a wish born from wanting to be helpful to everyone, even if just in this way.
‘Of course, since my lair is a bit… no, quite lacking, there might be more people who don’t want to come.’
Thinking that if anyone wants to come, I’d like to make it so they can rest anytime.
I started decorating the lair in a style where people can relax comfortably.
What was completed was a hideout with a secret base feel.
When I first created the lair, I made it feel like a secret base, so I thought maybe it continued from there.
Anyway, even I think it’s decorated quite impressively and I’m expressing my joy, when Chae-a next to me exclaims with great admiration.
“Wow, amazing… Ha-eun, you’re amazing…!”
Somehow being praised makes me feel proud.
Knowing I shouldn’t get cocky over something like this, but somehow feeling arrogant, I smile and think.
As a desire to show off to other people blossoms, I tried to show this to people around me, but.
“Huh? Why?”
Han A-rin just looked at me as if she didn’t understand.
The rest of the people were busy and had gone elsewhere, so I couldn’t get any praise.
Feeling a bit disappointed to let it end like this, I decided to pull out my secret weapon, my ‘phone’, and smiled broadly.

[Ha-eun turned on the broadcast to brag about completing her lair lololol
– Ah lololololol I worked hard on it but why does it look so much like a ruins, no bad words please]
ㄴ You just get on silently when Ha-eun brings a stretcher later, for real
ㄴ But it does look a bit… you know lol. Ah but her being so proud and bragging is really cute lolol
ㄴ I want to sneak into the lair and redo all the interior, really. But Ha-eun would hate that so I’ll hold back.
ㄴ Meanwhile Chae-a is amazed saying it changed so much lololololol so cute

The Hunter community was in a bit of an uproar over news about Ha-eun’s lair.
Word had spread that the lair, which had been indiscriminately destroyed twice by the demonic (not really) bald (true) spirit user weirdo, was finally completed.
Normally, hunters would be indifferent to others’ affairs.
But perhaps due to what Ha-eun had done so far, everyone seemed to be in a very congratulatory mood.
One of them posted a new thread with a rather interesting topic.

[Did you know? That white animal that goes around with Ha-eun can enhance items?
– I happened to see it when I entered the Spirit User project room.
The one called Somteol was enhancing a plastic bag.
It became an awesome plastic bag covered in special effects, wow.
If you need to enhance something later, try asking Ha-eun when the time is right.]
ㄴ Really? If this is true, isn’t it absolutely insane?
ㄴ Ah, but I’d feel bad putting pressure on Ha-eun, so it’s awkward to ask;; Maybe it’s better to just look for enhancement stones.
ㄴ Easy for you to say, even top-ranked hunters have trouble finding enhancement stones. But I also don’t think I could ask either… lol
ㄴ I’m sorry, but could you please delete this post? I’m worried it might cause trouble for Ha-eun.

It was a story about Somteol, whom Ha-eun keeps with her.
It was about Somteol’s special ability called ‘enhancement’.
Usually, most hunters couldn’t even properly speak to Ha-eun, worried about causing her trouble.
But since enhancement was such a precious thing that hunters couldn’t even dream of, some hunters showed their greed for it.

[Are you guys in your right mind?
– While Perseus, Han A-rin, the Association, the Elder Dragons and the Primordial Dragon, Spirit User representative Lee Sung-hyun, and numerous other Ha-eun fan club members (including me) are trying hard to protect Ha-eun.
Are you going to make an unreasonable request to Ha-eun through all these people?
Are you all in your right mind?
]
Including myself, haha. Here I am doing this.
This is right, yeah. Personally, that Spirit User representative is really scary. He may seem gentle in front of Ha-eun, but he’s actually a terrifying person.
Huh? That person? Wasn’t he just a rare and childhood-destroying octopus tako baldy?
Hahahahaha, try looking up his achievements later. You won’t even be able to make eye contact with him out of fear.
I looked it up, but what is this person? Is he human?
He’s an octopus tako.

Due to the thick layer of protection around Ha-eun, there was really no one trying to put it into practice.
Unless they were people with nothing to lose.
Given the nature of hunters, who are guaranteed a job and some wealth, there weren’t any making extreme choices.
Even if there were, they would have disappeared soon anyway.
Perseus, who was reading these posts, felt the need to strengthen the safety around Ha-eun even more and decided to take preemptive measures.

As I turn on the broadcast, many viewers quickly enter.
I’m so grateful for that, I’m mumbling and expressing my thanks.
Seo-rin, who entered first, compliments me.
[SeorinSeorin – Did you complete the rare? It’s really beautiful.]
As expected of Seo-rin.
I’m feeling very proud, thinking that if I work hard, others will recognize it.
Han A-rin, who was next to me, picked me up and spoke to the viewers.
“Ha-eun has completed her lair. She says those who want to come visit are welcome.”
The moment I hear those words, my tail starts wagging vigorously from side to side.
Although I’m a bit embarrassed to invite people to my humble lair, I’m even more excited about having visitors.
I’m steeling my resolve, promising myself to do my best for the guests, like diligently fetching water or giving massages – whatever I can do.
[MintCola – Isn’t it still unfinished? lololol]
[YummySeasoningSauce – Hahahahahaha Don’t say that to Ha-eun.]
[WantToRegress – It’s well-decorated, why is everyone saying that? Ha-eun, don’t worry, it’s really well done]
Some rather shocking comments start popping up.
I’m squirming and showing my shock at seeing such comments.
Han A-rin, who’s holding me, lets out a dry laugh and sends a warning to the chat.
“Comments about it being unfinished are prohibited. If you continue, I’ll have to give you a warning.”
In reality, a warning is just a caution or temporary chat ban, or at worst, a permanent ban.
From their perspective, it’s not a big deal.
But it seems no one wants to disrupt the peaceful atmosphere, so they all agree with Han A-rin and stop mentioning that it’s unfinished.
[Nothing – Ha-eun’s lair is nature-friendly.]
The strange phrase “nature-friendly” starts spreading like a trend.
It was clearly a mocking comment to anyone who saw it, and I was about to get sulky.
Chae-a, who had been watching this, brightens up her eyes as if very pleased and says to me.
“Nature good…!”
Being a spirit, she seems to like the phrase “nature-friendly.”
I was giggling, thinking that if Chae-a liked me, that would be enough.
My phone started ringing with a buzz.
Wondering who it could be, I checked it.
[Grandma Lecia
– Ha-eun, Grandma is planning to visit Lear tomorrow. If there’s anything you’d like to eat, could you let me know?]
I saw a text message from Grandma Lecia.
Thinking she’s coming sooner than expected, I blinked my eyes and tried hard to type a message.
[ㄱ。ㄴ.ㅏyo.ㅎ.。ㅏm’ni.ㅁ.`ㅏoㅅ.ㅣmyeon.dwae`,yo]
(It’s okay. It’s fine if just Grandma comes.)
Something strange was completed.
After checking the result, I couldn’t help but be very flustered.
That’s because I didn’t intentionally try to type it strangely, but really put effort into writing the message character by character.
‘Why is this happening?’
As I was thinking that I didn’t understand the reason and trying to focus on the keyboard to type again, what I saw was.
“Beep.”
It was Somteol, who was subtly tapping the keyboard with its tail.
I thought something was odd and tried to erase the message and write it again.
[Message sent.]
Just as I was about to pick up Somteol, the phone was accidentally pressed, and the message was sent.
I was so flustered by this that I didn’t know what to do and fidgeted with my fingers, just as I was about to send a message saying I had sent it by mistake.
[Grandma Lecia
– Hehehe, Grandma will take care of it. Just wait a little bit.]
Grandma’s reply came back, seemingly understanding all of my messages.
Just as I was marveling at how she could have understood that message,
Han A-rin, who was standing near me, spoke to me with a very flustered expression.
“G-Grandma Lecia is coming tomorrow?”
“Yes…!”
“……”
Han A-rin’s pupils shake rapidly.
I tilted my head wondering why she was acting like that.
Thinking it would be fine, I ignored it and lowered my phone, only to see the chatroom in chaos.
[Seo-rin Seo-rin – Ha-eun’s close-up shot is really cute kkkkkkkkkk ㅠㅠㅠ]
[CabbageSalad – Ha-eun’s eyes getting round while texting is so cute kkkk]
[ChickenIsDelicious – kkkkkkkk You can hear Ha-eun’s baby-like breathing when she gets close kkkkkkkk]
It seems that when I leaned in to type the message, my face was zoomed in on the broadcast.
Feeling embarrassed about that, I hid behind a nearby wall to calm myself down.
Han A-rin suddenly picked me up in her arms and said,
“Ha-eun, I’m sorry, but can you go along with me just for today?”
“…?”
Not understanding why she was suddenly saying this, I tilted my head in confusion.
Han A-rin looked at me and said,
“We need to prepare to welcome Grandma Lecia.”
With those words, Han A-rin quickly started making calls to beauty salons, all kinds of clothing stores, and famous restaurants and dessert shops, frantically beginning preparations.
