episode_0006
by adminAt 8:30 in the morning, my phone alarm rang.
I instinctively moved my hand to turn it off, sighed, and got up from my seat… Huh?
I feel something heavy on my chest.
I opened my eyes with a feeling of hopelessness and saw familiar brown hair.
I clearly slept in the living room matrix, so why is there a frizzrat next to me again?
I felt like I was backed up against the wall and couldn’t move, and it was because of the saintess who was curled up in my arms.
Just looking at the posture, it was exactly the same as when I slept in my bed yesterday.
“Ugh~u …
I got up and stretched.
Morning stretching is important.
It was a small thing, but if I didn’t do it, I somehow couldn’t come to my senses.
“Woong~.”
“Are you awake?”
As soon as I, who had been leaning against him, disappeared, Prislet also quickly got up.
“Eeee~!!”
I stretched my back forward like a bow and pulled both arms back.
Then, with a cat-like yet somewhat lewd sound, the arm slowly rose upward.
Are you stretching?
It’s a bit suggestive.
But our saint looked at me right away, closed her eyes, and rested her forehead on my shoulder.
I didn’t know I suffered from loneliness this much… .
I started to worry about leaving the saint at home and going to work.
“Prissette, you need to wake up. You need to get ready to go out?”
“Going out… Yeah, I want to.”
Surprisingly, the saint’s eyes opened wide.
“Ugh! Why? It feels so good!”
Well, that’s because I’ve been sleeping ever since I came in at dawn.
Fortunately, I guess I don’t have a headache because I slept for so long.
“Did you study well yesterday?”
“Oh… That’s… .”
I decided to leave alone why you were sleeping in my bed and why you were sleeping in my arms in the morning.
Instead, when asked what he did yesterday, Prislet rolled his eyes and avoided eye contact.
“Jinhyeon, I don’t remember anything since you left… .”
You slept well.
“I’m sorry.”
For some reason, the saint feels sorry for me.
I shook my head slightly.
“No, it doesn’t matter if you slept well. You’ll be using a lot of energy today, so it’s actually better to sleep well.”
I smiled and tried to comfort her. Prislet just stared blankly at me.
“Why?”
“In the church, if you don’t follow instructions properly, you get scolded without exception. I thought Jinhyeon would get scolded too.”
“This is home, not a school. As long as you don’t cause trouble, everyone has the right to spend their time doing whatever they want. Why did I sleep because I was sleepy?”
“… I see.”
When I told him as if it was nothing, Prislett felt relieved.
Then, he flinched and winked alternately at the bedroom and living room matrices.
Aha, now you even know where you slept?
It wasn’t like I did anything particularly bad, and it might just be my mood, but thanks to her being by my side, I was able to sleep through the night without waking up in the middle of the night.
“Did you sleep well?”
I offer a belated morning greeting.
“… Yeah.”
Even though it was a trivial greeting, Prislet smiled bashfully.
“Jinhyun, are you?”
Thanks to you, me too.
—
It may come as a surprise, but I was a person who always ate breakfast.
Because it was better than overeating at a late lunch just to make myself hungrier.
I didn’t like feeling very full.
Anyway, I’m preparing a simple breakfast today too.
Transfer 2 half-boiled eggs and 2 slices of crispy bacon to each bowl and scoop up a spoonful of the warmed can of baked beans on the side.
Today was an American breakfast.
Perhaps because he had a good night’s sleep, Prislet ate everything without leaving any behind, unlike yesterday.
He said he likes crispy bacon too.
It was a mistake not to ask in advance how well you wanted your bacon done.
From now on, let’s remember the saint’s favorite baking.
“Where are you going to go shopping?”
Prislat, who was in a good mood at the news that we were going out, talked actively while eating.
“I’m going to the department store.”
“Department store?”
“Well, it’s a large building with merchants selling various goods.”
Then Prislet tilted his head.
“A large building with merchants? If there are a lot of merchants, shouldn’t there be a line of stores that extend across the entire street?”
This is where cultural differences arise.
The level of this world, excluding magic, is at a medieval level, so would it be correct to say that it is a difference in civilization?
“You’ll know when you go. It’s a really tall and large building, and merchants have their own brands and open stores on each floor.”
“That’s amazing. What are you going to buy there?”
The way he asked questions one by one resembled the innocence of a child.
“At least I’ll buy you three things: clothes to wear, cosmetics, and a smartphone. You don’t have any extra clothes, right?”
“But what about a smartphone?”
What was meant to happen has come.
It was hard to explain in words, so I took my smartphone out of my pocket and showed it to him.
Prislet was surprised by the background screen and time that appeared when the power was turned on.
“You can make phone calls, watch videos on the Internet, search, and do everything with this. You can even shop.”
“Phone? Internet…?”
Here, I felt a little sorry about the part that I didn’t preview yesterday.
Prislett looked blank at the unfamiliar words.
I was wondering how to explain it, but then I thought it would be better to just buy a phone and show it to them one by one.
What plan do you use?
Since I had enough money, there was no need to sign a 24-month contract.
Then suddenly, a question occurred to me.
How do I buy a phone?
This wasn’t just about the act of buying a phone.
This is the Republic of Korea and there is an identification card called a resident registration card.
If you want to purchase a smartphone, you must verify your identity with this resident registration card during the process.
However, Prislet is an other-worlder who came from another dimension.
There’s no way I’d have a resident registration card or anything…
“Are you talking about this?”
There was.
I asked just in case, and Prislet rummaged through the pockets of the clothes he had been wearing and handed me a card.
“The Goddess took special care of me. It was decided after consulting with the God of Earth, and since I came from another world, she said she would give me two years to adjust.”
So, it is said that the two gods took care of small details such as where they were from and whether they graduated from elementary, middle, or high school.
Actually, the huge amount of money I received as compensation and this house itself were created overnight in Earth time, but I never received any calls from the National Tax Service or the Financial Supervisory Service saying they would investigate, so things went more smoothly than I expected.
“But to complete this ID, you said I need to come up with a new name to use here.”
Indeed, the resident registration card that the saintess handed over had the same design, but the personal information was blank.
This is the name we’re going to use here… Can I choose this?
When I mentioned this concern to Prislet, the saintess said this.
“Since you know a lot about this place, I’d like you to build it.”
I said that because I wanted to slyly pass the buck, but it ended up blocking my path to avoid it.
Name, name… Since this is the name that Prislet will continue to use in the future, it can’t be made carelessly.
Let’s think about her image.
Although she usually had a sullen expression and acted bluntly, she was basically a lonely girl who was also very affectionate.
Prislet, who is also a saint.
I wanted to capture both of these identities in my new name.
As various Chinese character names flashed through my mind and I was struggling, I finally opened my mouth.
“Yeonseo, how are you?”
“Yeonseo?”
“I named it by taking the letters that symbolize warmth and sacredness. Yeon means warmth, Seo means sacredness. ”
“Yeonseo… .”
Prislet repeated his new name over and over again.
“Yeonseo… .”
As I repeat the name, the corners of my lips gently rise.
A very natural, unadorned, warm and bright smile appeared.
“Yeonseo, I like it. So I’m so happy.”
For the first time in my life, I felt the full force of human kindness in a person, and in a Frisbee at that.
A smile filled with pure joy without any intention was honestly pretty.
“What do you want as your last name?”
Only the name was given, the surname still remained.
Rather than going for something unconventional, I thought it would be better to choose from the four great generals of Korea, Kim, Lee, Park, and Choi.
But Prislet chose her last name for different reasons than I did.
“What is Jinhyeon’s last name?”
“Me? Kim. Kim Jin-hyeon.”
“Kim Jin-hyeon… .”
After hearing my surname, the saint decided on her own surname without much thought.
“Then I’ll be Kim too. Kim Yeon-seo.”
Why is that?
Seeing Prislet decide to have the same last name as me made me unconsciously think of the customs of another world.
There, when a woman gets married, she usually takes the man’s surname.
Frisrat too, maybe?
No, it’s not.
This is an extreme case of excessive self-consciousness.
You could think of me as a family member, like a sibling.
Yeah, that was more likely.
“Kim Yeon-seo, my name is no longer Prisrat, but Kim Yeon-seo.”
When Prislet, or rather Yeonseo, decided on her name, light began to leak out from her resident registration card.
When I closed my eyes slightly, the light dimmed and there was the personal information of Prislet, who had become Kim Yeon-seo, engraved on it.
The name was Kim Yeon-seo, and there were Chinese characters written next to it.
The place of residence is… my house.
If I get a copy of this, will it show that I’m living with you?
There was also an ID photo.
The saintess in the ID photo is smiling awkwardly.
Everyone is so awkward when they take their first ID photo.
It was a strangely detailed part.
I was looking at it with a happy smile because it was somehow cute, but my eyes became tense when I saw the resident registration number.
“Born in 05… ?”
Even my birthday hasn’t even passed yet, it’s December 25th, Christmas Day.
I rub my eyes and look again, and I see that he was born in 2005.
The first number in the back is 4.
I was born in 00?
“Free… No, Yeonseo. How old were you before you came here?”
“Me? I’m turning 19 this year. But my birthday hasn’t passed yet.”
“I see… .”
oh….
Are you a minor?
So I slept with Yeonseo, who is a minor, for two days?
Cold sweat ran down my back.
