“My daughter! You worked hard, really. After all, she is our daughter. He’s good at acting and good at hunting down scary monsters. What can’t you do?”

    “Now, aren’t the dangerous things gone now? Please come here.”

    It was Han Se-ra’s parents who were in the commercial building.

    He speaks the same way as before with a smile on his face, and it seems that his way of thinking about his daughter as if it were his property has not changed at all.

    But what should I do about this? Your daughter has changed a lot from before.

    “…Sera?”

    “Sera Han. What are you doing? Come here quickly. What on earth are you doing there, leaving your family behind? ”

    There was no answer at all from Sera Han, who stood at the front of our group.

    I stepped forward on behalf of Sarah, who was silent as if she couldn’t bear to say something harsh to her parents.

    “As expected, it was here. I guess I thought there was nothing to gain. Right?”

    Without hesitation, I translated what she wanted to say on Sarah’s behalf, a little, very roughly, and conveyed it to them.

    As expected, they shamelessly can’t say anything to me and keep pointing arrows at the easy-going Sarah.

    “…This guy… ! Sera Han! Get out of there right now!”

    “Sera! Can’t you come here quickly! It’s because I want to see my mom burn to death!!”

    “……”

    No matter how much a person has changed, it would be difficult to suddenly say bad things about his or her parents because of what they have done so far. Even if you do something obvious like this.

    But I understand. The love of blood and relatives is something that is very difficult to break away from, no matter how bad the other person is.

    So Sarah came and left everything to me.

    Wow!

    So, there shouldn’t be any problem with me holding her in my arms right here and now.

    “What… !”

    “Seraya–! you! What are you doing to our Sarah!!”

    When they see Sarah in my arms, their eyes widen and they become very radiant.

    “What are you doing? You just do what you see.

    “What you see is what it is… ”

    “Is it wrong to do this to my girlfriend?”

    “…Oh my god, oh my… ”

    The two people who heard me looked like they had never even thought about something like this.

    But the two eyes staring at me did not change at all.

    “You! How dare you tell Sarah now… !”

    “Can you handle this? Sarah’s popularity is amazing. I don’t know how much you know about the entertainment industry, but I can’t believe that doing this right now is for Sarah’s future… ”

    “I don’t know anything about the entertainment industry. However, I understand that your two groups are blocking my commercial building right now. Get out of the way, right?”

    I have no affection for these people. Therefore, like Sera, I have no intention of being swayed here and there because of some affection.

    The man and woman, who had tried to subtly turn the conversation in their favor, frowned and rebelled when things did not go as planned.

    “…Isn’t this building yours in the first place? And the leader of this area is Seraya. Not you.”

    “It doesn’t matter, Mom and Dad. Hyunseong oppa’s will is my will.”

    “Se, Seraya… ?”

    And it was Sarah who put an end to that meaningless rebellion.

    As Sarah opened her mouth and clearly showed signs of being against them, both of their eyes wavered this time.

    “Hyunseong oppa was the one who gave up the leader position in the first place, and I don’t think it’s too much if my oppa had more stake in this position than me. So please get out of there.”

    “Sera! You are going to ignore so many people! Everyone here, there are sisters and uncles you’ve seen for a long time! Anyway, there’s so much material there that’s rotting away!”

    “The fact that there are a lot of supplies is the same in the first place. The people in the apartments here live well, so there will be no shortage of supplies.”

    “No matter how many people there are! Right now, there isn’t enough water for this many people to use it properly. And again… ”

    They keep talking about this and that, but in the end, even if they have supplies, they are going to run out at some point soon, so they should just give them away.

    No matter how calmly Sarah retorts, it seems like it will never end.

    There is no reason to waste any more time.

    Grrr!!

    “After hearing this, I can’t stand it anymore.”

    As I hunted goblins, I began to show force with the power of the spirit that became stronger.

    Before, there were fireworks the size of a soccer ball or a person’s head, but now there were fireballs floating around me that were as big as the upper body of a person.

    “What are you doing! Are you trying to give it a try now? Fuck!”

    The guy who got into an argument with me last time and got punched in the mouth by his boss is screaming loudly, but no matter how I look at it, it looks like he’s only doing it because he’s scared.

    “We are busy. There is no need to argue here anymore. If you want to fight, come at me.”

    “…I guess it’s none of your business. We are now with Sarah… ”

    “Is that still bullshit? Didn’t you hear Sarah say she was going to leave it to me?”

    Sarah’s father, the leader of the gang, glares in this direction with a red face. So what.

    And as if the other person had tagged me, this time Sarah’s mother yelled at me with eyes similar in color to Sarah’s.

    “Are you really like this? We are Sarah’s parents, but how can someone who would become her boyfriend do this to her parents? I was speaking carelessly earlier… Who taught my girlfriend’s parents to be so rude and cruel! What did those parents do? !”

    “If it’s my parents, they’re already dead? When I was young.”

    “…Ah.”

    The atmosphere becomes tense for a moment due to a slip of the tongue. And the pupils of the woman who has nowhere to go shake.

    The eyes of Sarah, who was in my arms, became cold, and the people around her also seemed to be in an awkward mood. At the same time, it can be seen that the weapon he is holding in his hand is subtly exerting strength.

    It seems like he’s feeling uneasy about needlessly stimulating me…

    ‘It doesn’t really matter.’

    In the first place, I already heard that kind of criticism a lot when I was young, so it doesn’t matter. Well, it’s a fact that I grew up without parents, and it’s a fact that I lack social skills, but what can I do?

    But it would be great if it served as an opportunity to end this situation quickly.

    “You started an argument and didn’t even say a word of apology? I’m so glad Sarah isn’t like you.”

    “…I’m speechless. sorry. Anyway, this is outrageous. I can’t tolerate it. Both as a resident of this place and as a resident of Sera… ”

    “I told you not to just spoon-feed, but it doesn’t mean I have no intention of making a fair deal.”

    “…What does that mean?”

    The woman seems to like making her forget her mistakes, so she takes the bait I offer her.

    “I really hate people who free ride. It’s the same for you too. Isn’t that right?”

    “…Why is that being said now? It’s like they’re us… ”

    “Okay. We’ll have to hire some people there.”

    From the beginning, I was planning to use these people to find Choi Min-soo and Kim Ga-ryeong’s children.

    Of course, we can find it if we run around, but it will be less fast than if we search for it together.

    And there is nothing better in terms of relieving the burden on Sarah’s heart. Anyway, they are Sarah’s parents. If you don’t provide any supplies at all, Sarah may feel anxious. If we share it in moderation, it will put Sarah’s mind at ease.

    “…You mean to command me? That means… ”

    “Because we have a job at a Korean university. Because of that, I think there will be times in the future where I will ask for ‘cooperation’ from those people.”

    “…’cooperation’… ”

    ” When I said that I had no intention of sharing the supplies, I was talking about sharing them for free. Wouldn’t it be different to ‘pay’ in return for cooperation?”

    When I changed my words to a softer tone than before, the woman focused all her attention on the exit hole.

    Of course, as if he didn’t like what I said, the gang leader immediately frowned and protested.

    “What! What are you doing to us? By what right!”

    “By the right to be the leader of this land. And as a right to the owner of the goods.”

    “Aren’t they all things that don’t belong to you?”

    Well, actually it is. The leader counts, the supplies in the mall are not mine. There is nothing wrong with that statement.

    But whether they are both mine or not is not important.

    Grrr!!

    What matters is that I have power.

    “I may not know the rights of a leader, but I am the owner of the materials.”

    “……”

    “Do you have any complaints? then… ”

    “Good, prospective son-in-law. Let’s ‘cooperate’.”

    “….Kaylee?”

    As another fireball appears, the gang leader, who is silent, turns his eyes towards the woman as if he cannot believe it.

    “Now I understand the intention. It’s a ‘cooperative’ relationship… You said that a long time ago. Then there wouldn’t have been misunderstandings like now.”

    “Because I’m a little unfamiliar with this kind of thing. Please understand, Mr. Bright.”

    “Oh my, it’s okay to call her a future mother-in-law. Of course, due to Sarah’s circumstances, it has to be kept a secret from the public.”

    “What, what what?! What a bitch! What on earth can you do without me now… !”

    “Do you think it would be better for me to proceed with the conversation without this person, who could be the future son-in-law’s father-in-law?”

    “…!”

    This was also what I was aiming for.

    According to Sarah, the relationship between the two is not very good. No, if you said something like that in front of Sarah when you were young, you would already be considered enemies. Just because Sarah makes money, they have no choice but to remain a show window couple.

    So, I thought that if I dug into this gap, one of the two would definitely seize the opportunity.

    And it was the women who took that opportunity.

    “However, since this side is risking their lives to ‘cooperate’, I think there will be a corresponding reward. Right?”

    “Of course. We are willing to provide more than enough compensation to those who find the person we are looking for. Only as long as the ‘cooperative’ relationship continues.”

    “Hoho, don’t worry. Because our people are good at one thing: finding people. I will ‘cooperate’ as much as I can.”

    Everyone seemed taken aback by the sudden change in atmosphere, like a psychopath reversing his emotions.

    But the panic was short-lived, and the action was quick.

    “What, was that something like that? If that’s the case, you should help as much as you can.”

    “Don’t worry about finding someone, bro! These people are people who have been begging for more than ten years through a criminal investigation agency. Professional, professional!”

    People who were thought to be on Kaylee Bright’s side began to call this side in a friendly manner and quietly approached this side.

    This time, I aimed my weapon slightly towards the gang leader’s group.

    “How… Can Dong-seok Han also ‘cooperate’ with us?”

    “……”

    Although they call it cooperation, it does not change the fact that one side exploits the other side in exchange for prices. That person knows it well.

    But what can you do?

    “I will not force you. However, the price of cooperation is… ”

    “…Do not… ”

    “Huh? I can’t hear you very well? Could you speak a little louder?”

    Crackling… !

    He can hear the sound of his teeth grinding, but there is nothing he can change.

    “…’Cooperative’ relationship, please take care of it… ”

    It was the moment when a rescue team was formed to rescue Choi Min-soo and Kim Ga-ryeong.

    The two couples watched that touching scene,

    “Ha, haha… ”

    “Trigram, are you okay, honey? Those people are probably gangsters… ”

    “Shhh! Hyunseong can control it. That’s not important now. We have to go save Nahee as quickly as possible… ”

    He was looking this way with an embarrassed expression, not sure if he was laughing or crying.
