    “… life span… … You mean?”

    “Yes. Lifespan. You saw it in a cartoon or something, right? You have a predetermined lifespan, but by using it up… … .”

    Lee So-yi’s eyebrows furrowed as she made a plausible argument.

    “Ha… . Was there such a condition?”

    “I saw it in the status window. Soyi, you know it too. Something that explains your abilities.”

    “I know.”

    “I didn’t know at first, but when I looked again, I saw a warning written below. Please confirm it. Soyi might be there too.”

    Lee So-i quickly waved his finger back and forth in the air.

    Of course, there might be some precautions. I just made that up.

    It doesn’t even appear in the novel.

    “… I don’t have one.”

    “It was written down for me. In small print. Each time it is used, a portion of the user’s lifespan is reduced. Like this.”

    “… Does that make sense?”

    “Does something like a shining sword or shield make sense?”

    Believe it or not.

    One thing is certain, there is no way to check my scam.

    No matter how much I show the status window, the other person will only see it as empty space.

    “Ha. That’s true though.”

    “Right?”

    “So. Are you saying you can’t make bread? Because life is a waste?”

    “Yes.”

    Lee So-yi’s brow furrows.

    You’re probably racking your brain hard right now.

    I’m sure you’ve already finished calculating how sustainable it is when you add up the food for 42 children + Teacher Do Ayun’s food, the other women here, and my food.

    It probably won’t even last a month.

    If I don’t sacrifice my life to make bread, food will soon run out.

    After hesitating for a while, Lee So-i reluctantly bows her head to me.

    “Really, how could it not work?”

    Oh my.

    Are you finally thinking about bending over?

    But this isn’t enough.

    “It might be a bit difficult. Because I also value my life.”

    “Qu… … .”

    When Lee So-yi realized that lowering her head was useless, she frowned.

    “Um, er… … .”

    “Yes?”

    I looked next to me and this time, Do Ayun was calling me.

    “I’m sorry… . mister… ? How should I call you?”

    “Loan. no see. Park Daebu.”

    “Ah… ! yes. Mr. Godfather.”

    Wasn’t the title changed to ‘Mister’?

    “That… Mr. Godfather. sorry. I asked you a favor without knowing that it would shorten your lifespan… .”

    “You may not have known. Because I just found out too.”

    “Yeah, but I need food to feed my kids… … . Radish, of course! You can take food from the convenience store here, but I’m not sure how long it will last… … .”

    “Probably won’t last even a month.”

    “One month… … . Will the rescue team be able to arrive by then?”

    … I guess you believe that a rescue team will come someday?

    Well, it would be difficult to predict that the city’s entire system would collapse like this. Even when wars and disasters occur, administration usually returns to normal. If you haven’t read the novel, it’s natural to not know what will happen next.

    “You don’t know that.”

    “Is that so… … .”

    Do-A-yoon bows his head.

    He grabs the apron and keeps writhing, clenching and unclenching his fist.

    “Um, er… … .”

    this this.

    I feel like I can communicate with this woman.

    So, shall we talk about the requirements?

    “It’s not that there is no way.”

    “Yes? Really?”

    “… … What is it?”

    Even Lee So-i pricks up his ears.

    Some place.

    I slowly lowered my gaze.

    Do Ayun’s big breasts are visible.

    “If you let me touch your chest, I will think about it.”

    “… … Yes?”

    “The chest.”

    “A, A… My heart… ?”

    “Are you saying that now?”

    Lee So-yi’s expression turns sour in an instant.

    The other women heard me and immediately came running.

    “Wow… What did you just say?”

    “Breasts? I guess I’m crazy… .”

    “Teacher Ayun… ! Teacher Ayun! Come here! Quickly!”

    hmm… . Isn’t it time yet?

    I thought that if the situation was like this, it might work now.

    The women took Do A-yoon away and only Lee So-yi, who was giggling, was left.

    “I’m sorry, but… … . No, I’m not sorry. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what Mr. Godfather said. You didn’t really mean it, right?”

    “Of course I’m joking.”

    “No matter how jokey it is… … . no. yes. That’s it. I think I had a dark moment for a moment. Men are really… … .”

    Lee So-i sighs, saying, “Ugh.”

    hmm… … .

    I thought it was a level where I could trade with my breasts, but I guess I’m not there yet.

    If so, let’s change our method.

    “I put my heart into it.”

    “Yes?”

    [1+1 ability has been activated.]

    Go to where the women are and make a copy of the bread.

    To women, it will look like you just made a loaf of bread.

    “Mr. Godfather… ! Have you changed your mind?”

    “Rather than changing it, I’m just using my generosity. I won’t do it next time.”

    Repeat the same ability to create multiple copies of bread.

    Before we knew it, bread was piled up on the table. Even if you collect only the stickers, it is enough to fill one page of the file.

    “Thank you! thank you… !”

    Do Ayun repeatedly bows as if she is moved.

    The other women didn’t go to that extent, though.

    “What, what… … . You did a good job.”

    “… Well thought out.”

    Has your favorability increased slightly? I don’t need it. Likeability.

    I didn’t copy the bread for the kids to impress these women.

    They simply have the ability but they won’t do it.

    Rather than saying.

    It is better to help someone once, let them know the value of my abilities, and then rely on them.

    It’s like a tasting corner.

    This is a skill I learned while working in sales at a company.

    “Let’s put it in for now. This.”

    “Ah, yes!”

    The women put the bread I made into pay-as-you-go bags.

    “After… … . I will take a short break.”

    “… Please. Thank you for your hard work.”

    Is that the only thing you can say to a person who devoted his life to making bread?

    Of course, I didn’t sacrifice my life.

    I went to another place and sat down for a while when someone came up to me.

    It was Ga-eun.

    “Trigram, are you okay? Mr. Godfather… … . You don’t have to push yourself too hard.”

    He looked genuinely worried.

    “Still, I’m glad. The godfather decided to help the children… … . As expected, this is the godfather I know.”

    “Thanks to you, my lifespan was shortened.”

    “Oh… … . Yeah, right… .”

    You look very guilty?

    It definitely works well. This lifespan is limited. I liked the idea.

    “I… Mr. Godfather.”

    “Ah, yes.”

    “, you don’t have to use polite language anymore… ! This is outside the company. My godfather is much older than me.”

    That’s right.

    Seven years older.

    “I feel more comfortable this way.”

    “Is that so… ?”

    “It’s good to have a sense of distance.”

    “A sense of distance… … .”

    He sounds a little disappointed.

    “I… Mr. Godfather. You cut your life short to make bread like this… . Are you sure you’re okay? If you do this a lot… … . I’m worried that you’re being cut off a lot.”

    “Reduced by 3 years.”

    “3, 3 years… ?”

    Gong Ga-eun’s eyes get huge.

    Of course it’s false.

    “Well, I see… . Cutting off 3 years of your lifespan to provide children’s snacks… … . Godfather is a good person after all. No matter what others say… . Because I know that my godfather is a good person.”

    “… … .”

    It’s an angel. angel.

    You are the first woman to treat me like this.

    Maybe that’s why, especially.

    I want to see this woman submit to me.

    “We… What happens now?”

    “Yes?”

    “I talked to other people earlier, but I couldn’t find an answer… … . There is no phone or internet, and the electricity is cut off… . I don’t know what happens. I’m worried about the future… .”

    Ga-eun lowers her head.

    “Don’t worry.”

    “Yes?”

    “I am the only one who knows the end of this story… … No, because you are one of many readers.”

    “… … What does that mean?”

    Seeing as the conversion advice didn’t work, it seems like he doesn’t know much about web novels.

    “I’ve seen this a lot. Things like how to survive in a disaster situation.”

    “Ah~ Is this like a survival series? I saw it when I was young too.”

    When was that a cartoon?

    “Let’s say it’s similar.”

    “Thank goodness. Godfather, you have seen a lot of those things, and it would be a great help if you could also make bread.”

    “Other people seem to think they don’t need me.”

    “A… . no. I heard it earlier, and other people also said that it would be a good idea to take Mr. Godfather with him. Since he is the only man, there will be things he has to work hard at. You can also make bread… … .”

    In short, they are going to use you as a chore.

    “No, of course… . It’s shameless to ask for help blindly.”

    “I guess so. Life expectancy is also shortened.”

    “That’s right… . life span… … . Umm… … .”

    Actually, it doesn’t get cut.

    But Gong Ga-eun already completely believed what I said.

    “I… … . Mr. Godfather.”

    “Yes.”

    “Could you please come here for a moment? Pretending to do this.”

    what?

    Gong Ga-eun calls me to the other stand.

    Women are hard to see… It was like a blind spot.

    “Dae, Mr. Godfather.”

    “… Yes.”

    “Well, well… … .”

    gulp.

    Gong Ga-eun swallowed her saliva and glanced at me.

    Sigh.

    I slightly opened the blouse I wore on the outside.

    “Chest… … Do you want to touch it?”
