490 – Let’s Create a Guild Too!
Gaeul lay on her side, pretending to be dead.
Was losing her ear that shocking?
Poke, poke—
I crouched next to Gaeul and poked her side.
At that, Gaeul slightly opened one eye and then closed it again.
She squeezed her eyes shut so tightly that even without the Beastmen’s sensitive senses, it was obvious.
“Ah, Gaeul just opened her eyes.”
“Hek…”
Gaeul, sticking her tongue out, propped herself up.
Her gaze, now open, landed on the dog ears I was holding.
“Ju-in, it’s a dog ear.”
“Yep. It’s Gaeul’s ear.”
“······!”
Gaeul, who had been staring intently at the dog ear headband, slowly reached out her hand.
What Gaeul grabbed was not the dog ear but a white cat ear headband.
“Gaeul wants this.”
“This? Do you want to wear cat ears, Gaeul?”
“Neung.”
Is she planning to wear the cat ears instead?
Gaeul with cat ears. Just thinking about it was adorable.
There was no reason not to, so I placed the cat ear headband on Gaeul’s head.
The pressure from the headband pressed down on Gaeul’s original dog ears.
“Wow, Gaeul has become a cat!”
“Meow meow.”
“Huh?”
Gaeul mimicked Seol’s crying sound.
But Seol is a cat that makes dog sounds, right?
In the end, Gaeul, who was trying to make a cat sound, ended up making a dog sound.
“Meow meow.”
“Um…”
Well, at least it’s a sound a cat makes.
So I guess “meow meow” can be considered a cat sound.
As I praised Gaeul and patted her head, she pointed at the dog ear headband I was holding.
“Can I wear this?”
“Meow!”
I took off my hat to wear the dog ear headband as Gaeul wished.
As I removed my hat, Gaeul’s eyes widened at the cat ears that were revealed.
“Ju-in! Ki!”
“Yeah. Actually, these ears didn’t fall off. This is just a headband.”
“Uing?!”
Gaeul, who had tilted her head, showed a happy expression as soon as I put on the dog ear headband.
Gaeul prioritized happiness over surprise.
“How is it? We have the same ears.”
“Woof woof! Ju-in woof woof!”
Giggling.
Gaeul clapped her hands with a bright smile.
I thought it was a good idea to have bought the ear headbands.
“Should we show this to others too?”
“Neung!”
“Wait a minute first…”
I moved with Gaeul to a household goods store to buy more headbands.
I was looking forward to Levinas’s reaction when we got rabbit ears.
“This time, let’s go with Horned Rabbit.”
“Hek…”
Gaeul, wearing rabbit ears, hopped and ran towards the guild building.
Levinas and the other kids were watching television at home.
“Levinas, look at this.”
“Huh?”
“Gaeul and I have become Horned Rabbits.”
“······?”
Levinas’s gaze turned towards the rabbit ears perched on our heads.
Seeing the long rabbit ears, Levinas froze in place.
“Levinas?”
Levinas, with eyes wide open, slowly closed them.
In that state, he stretched his hands out to the sides, and the sunlight shining from behind made him look almost saintly.
“Levinas?”
Is he feeling overwhelmed?
While I was staring blankly at Levinas, he, with his arms outstretched, suddenly knelt down.
“Levinas’s dream has come true…!”
“Uh, yeah…”
As Levinas’s moment of emotion stretched on, Bomi quietly approached me.
Bomi spoke while looking at the remaining animal ear headbands.
“Winter, give me some ears too.”
“Sure. What do you want?”
“Anything is fine.”
Was it because Bomi had human ears?
Among the kids, she seemed to have the greatest desire for animal ears.
I gifted Bomi black cat ears that matched well with her black snake tail.
“Here, Bomi, these will suit you well.”
“Yeah.”
When I gave Bomi Saebyeok’s ears, Saebyeok approached with interest.
I placed Gaeul’s ears, which I had taken off to wear the rabbit ears, on Saebyeok.
“Saebyeok is now Gaeul.”
“···Cool.”
In the situation where we were wearing different ears, our tails swayed gently.
At that moment, Levinas, who had been savoring the emotion, slowly stood up.
“Wanga, can I go outside and show off?!”
“Show off?”
“Yeah! Levinas wants to show off the Horned Rabbit King and Gaeul the puppy!”
“Uh…”
What kind of show-off does he have in mind?
I wasn’t sure, but I decided to follow Levinas for now.
**
Levinas went to the store I had told him about and bought more Horned Rabbit ear headbands.
He bought a lot, saying it was worth the expense.
Bomi and I, along with Gaeul and Saebyeok, all wore the Horned Rabbit ear headbands Levinas had given us.
“Ugh.”
Levinas knelt down and made a crying sound.
It was just a headband, but it seemed everyone was moved by the fact that they had the same Horned Rabbit ears as him.
Here, I decided to lift Levinas’s spirits a bit more.
“Captain Levinas.”
“Huh…! Levinas is the captain?!”
“Yeah. Since Levinas is the senior Horned Rabbit, he is the captain.”
“Wow…!”
Thud!
Levinas lightly punched the ground and stood up.
He looked so spirited that it felt like the crying sound he made was a lie.
“Levinas will lead the way.”
“Yeah! Got it!”
With his chest puffed out, Levinas strode confidently through the park.
We followed closely behind him.
“Wow, what a Horned Rabbit army!”
While walking in the park, we ran into Jeong Yuna and Choi Jin-hyuk.
Everyone seemed to find it amusing that we were all wearing Horned Rabbit ears, and Jeong Yuna’s lips were curled up in a big smile.
“It’s Levinas’s Horned Rabbit army!”
“Wow, a Horned Rabbit army? That’s amazing!”
“Looks cool.”
At the compliments from Jeong Yuna and Choi Jin-hyuk, Levinas’s shoulders lifted proudly.
Gaeul, who was watching, also puffed out her chest.
“I want to see more of the Horned Rabbit army, but I have to go to a meeting.”
“A meeting?! Even Master is not here, and you’re having a meeting?!”
“Yeah. We have meetings among the guild members too.”
“Is that so…!”
Hmm.
Levinas’s ears perked up as if he had come up with a good idea.
He was reacting as if he had just had a brilliant thought.
“Guild! Levinas wants to try making a guild too!”
“Huh?”
Aren’t we already part of the Dawn Guild?
Don’t we have to leave the Dawn Guild to create a new one?
I was flustered, but Jeong Yuna and Choi Jin-hyuk didn’t seem to mind.
“That’s a good idea.”
“What will you name the guild?”
Even though he declared he would leave the Dawn Guild, the two of them looked intrigued.
Noticing their expressions, I tugged at Jeong Yuna’s sleeve.
“Um, don’t we have to leave our guild to create a new one…?”
“That’s true, but trying to create a guild is a good experience. I originally started with a personal guild too.”
“I see.”
Experience, huh.
Right now, gaining experience was the most important thing for the kids.
I also had the confidence that if we wanted to rejoin the guild later, they would accept us anytime.
After thinking for a moment, I had no choice but to nod.
Since it had come to this, I decided to try creating a guild with the kids.
“But how do we create a guild?”
“Um… I’ll help you after the meeting is over, can you wait a bit?”
“Sure.”
**
To create a guild, several documents were needed.
Since it was paperwork that I and the kids couldn’t prepare, Jeong Yuna helped us by preparing the documents.
Thanks to that, we were able to easily pass the paperwork stage, but the most important step was blocking our way.
“I got permission from the Master… What do you want to name the guild?”
“Um…”
“Um…”
A guild name.
I didn’t have anything in mind.
It seemed I had to leave the naming to the kids.
“Levinas, do you have a guild name in mind?”
“Um… No…! Can’t Wanga decide?!”
“Levinas is the Horned Rabbit captain, though?”
“Levinas is the Horned Rabbit captain, but Wanga is the Beastmen captain!”
“Huh.”
Is it really like that?
I thought more about the guild name based on Levinas’s words, but nothing came to mind.
“Does anyone have a name in mind?”
“Gaeulrik!”
At my question, Gaeul raised her hand excitedly.
Naturally, everyone’s gaze turned toward Gaeul.
“What should we name the guild?”
“Ggaemmi!”
“Ant?”
“Neung!”
Gaeul showed the ant doll she received from Saebyeok.
It seemed Gaeul really liked ants.
Since it was just a trial guild anyway.
We decided to name the guild after ants.
“Okay, let’s go with Ant Guild.”
“Then we have decided on the guild name… I will be the representative of the guild. Is that okay?”
“Sure.”
It was still practically impossible for us to create a guild among ourselves.
I was grateful that Jeong Yuna would be our representative.
Jeong Yuna handed us the documents.
The guild name was not Ant but ‘Ggaemmi.’
“This is the guild name…”
“Didn’t we say Ggaemmi?”
“Uh… well…”
“You can change the guild name later, so don’t worry too much.”
“Oh, okay.”
With that, the paperwork was finished, and it was time to submit it.
As we sat in front of the park tent, Hanyeoreum approached us.
“You all were here.”
“Yeah.”
Hanyeoreum plopped down on the log next to Jeong Yuna.
Seeing Hanyeoreum, Jeong Yuna flashed a playful smile.
“Summer, I’m leaving the guild?”
“···Huh?”
“I’m leaving Dawn.”
“···You’re joking, right?”
Hanyeoreum’s expression, which had been smiling as she approached, gradually hardened.
She was showing a rather cold demeanor rather than being flustered.
“There’s a guild offering better conditions than Dawn. So, I’m leaving.”
“···Hey, are you joking?”
“I’m not joking, I’m really leaving.”
Jeong Yuna showed Hanyeoreum part of the guild creation documents.
Since it was an official document, Hanyeoreum was momentarily fooled.
“···Who are those guys?”
“Hey, watch your words when you say ‘guys.'”
“···I’m being as careful as I can. If I had my way, I’d just go find them and…! Ugh… I’m holding back because the kids are here…”
Hanyeoreum sighed heavily as she looked at us.
The kids flinched at her words about breaking something.
“See, the kids are disappointed to hear you’re leaving. Are you really going to leave?”
“···You’re just scaring the kids with your words.”
“When did I say anything scary to the kids?”
Jeong Yuna showed the entire document to a bewildered Hanyeoreum.
Hanyeoreum’s gaze was fixed on the several sheets of paper.
“The kids said they wanted to try making a guild, so I decided to help them for a bit.”
“Huh?”
“I agreed to hug them whenever they want as a condition for helping. Isn’t that a good condition?”
“······.”
Hanyeoreum, who had flinched, looked back at us.
When our eyes met, I instinctively averted my gaze.
It was a natural instinct to avoid.
