It is no exaggeration to say that it is the essence of modern technology: the explosive flavor of chemical seasoning!

Lael was fascinated by the taste and ate as many as five servings of barbecue pork ribs.

-Sorry, sorry. It’s so delicious that I can’t stop… I will definitely cover the cost of the food no matter what labor I do!

“Hehe. It’s okay. Thanks to you, I had a good time.”

“That’s right. We ate so happily that I think we ate more than usual.”

“Fuwaa~ I’m full!”

-Ugh, that’s…embarrassing…

Rael blushed, stroking her back as if she was happy, but we smiled happily and comforted her.

As I intuit the mukbang of a beautiful maid from a medieval fantasy world, I feel like I have built up a great deal of inner intimacy.

You want to take more care of her and at the same time, you want to watch her reaction.

Of course, her background as a person from another world was interesting, but the innate charm of Rael as a person would bring out such emotions more naturally.

On the outside, he acts emotionless and expressionless and has a shrewd attitude, but he is surprisingly full of emotions and his reactions are excellent, making it difficult to leave him alone.

Is this why they support personal internet broadcasts so much?

“But Rael, are you able to eat unlimited food?”

-yes…? Oh, that’s not it. Because my mana amount is limited. If you eat more than a certain amount, you will not be able to taste it.

“I see. That’s a shame. I wanted to take more pictures of other things.”

-yes?

When she tilted her head, Heo Sae-ron raised his smart phone with a sinister look on his face.

-…!?

A video of Lael enjoying pork ribs was playing on the screen.

“Oh, what? It’s not visible to other people, but it’s captured on camera?”

“I just tried it and it caught me!”

“This is interesting. What is the reason? Isn’t it usually the other way around? It’s usually visible to people and not captured on camera.”

“Ahaha. Han Gil. Isn’t that about a movie? This is reality, reality.”

Hyung Gyeong’s words were strangely persuasive, so I nodded.

“Is that so? Well, now that I think about it, this is my first time seeing a ghost in real life. But then, among other supernatural entities… huh?”

-Ugh, ugh…!

A question suddenly occurred to me, so I tried to ask her, but I froze when I saw her suddenly start crying.

“Uh…!?”

“La, Rael! What’s wrong!?”

-sorry. I’m sorry for eating food without permission. It won’t happen again, so please don’t put me in that little box…!

“…Saeron. You made me cry.”

“Wow, it looks like Saeron was bullying me too much.”

“Oh, no! Wait a minute! Is this my fault!? Oh, of course it’s my fault! But everyone enjoyed it equally!? It’s unfair!”

She hurriedly waved her arms and opened them wide to embrace Rael.

However, it only passed in vain.

“Ugh! I can’t hug you! I’m sorry! I’m sorry Rael! I was just joking! Your reaction was so funny that I was just joking!”

-Ugh, huh…it’s a joke…I see. They say I’m just a toy that can be played with at any time.

Lael was crying so sadly, tears like chicken shit were dripping down his face.

Even though it’s a ghost, it can shed tears.

If you can eat and shed tears, you can no longer be called a ghost, right?

Oh, so people in that world also call them monsters?

“Isn’t your self-esteem so low!? I never even thought about that!”

-Okay, it’s okay to treat it like a toy. If you don’t put me in that scary curse box…

I glanced at the sight of Rael looking in this direction while speaking, which gave me a strangely contrived feeling.

Realizing that this was her intention, Eunno-eul, me, and Gyeong-gyeong stood a step away and watched their conversation with meaningful smiles.

“So this isn’t like that!? I don’t have the power to do that! If I had the power, I could have caught the evil spirit!”

-Well, then…do you forgive me?

“Yes! I forgive you! I’ll forgive you, so please stop crying, okay? I’ll never pull a prank like this again!”

-Yes, if you give it to me…

Lael wiped away his tears, smiled sadly, and adjusted his clothes.

-It is okay for the owner to treat you as an emotional trash can. I will do everything you ask me to do, so please stop making threats like that anymore.

“Aren’t you talking too much!? If you say that, I sound like trash!”

-I am ready to accept anything…Sir.

“No! Rael, are you doing this on purpose!? You’re not the master. We’re friends, right?”

-……

“Rael? Answer me. We are friends, right?

-If the owner wishes…

“Ahh! I’m going crazy!”

“Puhuhuhhh…!”

“Hehehehe…!”

“Ahahaha!”

“Uh, huh? What, why is everyone laughing?”

I honestly burst out laughing when I saw Saeron jumping up and down in frustration.

I felt like I was watching a comical play unfold.

No, is this closer to a hidden camera?

To show such improvisation on the spot is a much more formidable ghost than you might think.

Well, in a way, is it natural? In that world, people would have been killed with that kind of acting…

Well, if you think about it this way, you might have to be cautious.

Could it be that everything that has been shown so far is just acting?

“Hmph! That’s what everyone says!? Then I won’t show this video either!”

Saeron, who belatedly realized that she had been wronged, shook her smartphone with a pouty face.

“Video? What video?”

“Ehehe. Actually, I just took a picture of Rael crying. You can’t miss such a huge dark story, right? We should show it and make fun of it later!”

“……”

“……”

“……”

We stared at her blankly with our mouths wide open.

Saeron. Are you a psychopath?

***

When we returned to the office, we wasted our time leisurely, just like before we were taken to the post.

It’s so peaceful and peaceful that it’s hard to believe that I was fighting a scary evil spirit just two days ago.

Ah, now that I think about it, I also need to check the [Cry of Despair, Pain, and Grief] skill I’ve developed… but it’s annoying.

-Anyway, there are a lot of really amazing things in this world… I can’t even imagine how advanced magic has become.

I reflexively laughed at the sight of Lael’s eyes sparkling as he looked at the coffee pot.

That kind of thing looks like it’s not acting, but sincerity.

“It’s not magic. It’s science, if I may say so.”

-Is it science? What kind of technology is that?

Showing interest, she slinks over and makes eye contact.

“Hmm, I think it would be better for you to read it yourself rather than for me to explain it to you…”

-Hi!?

As she takes out her smart phone, her shoulders shake.

“…Wasn’t that an act earlier?”

-Ugh, to be honest, I was half serious about it. Isn’t it natural to be afraid of what you don’t know?

I couldn’t tell if the blushing on my face, as if I was embarrassed by my surprise, was genuine or an act.

“Really? Hmm…Anyway, Rael, can you read?”

-yes? no. I can’t read the characters in this world.

“…Can’t you? I thought you could read texts since you can talk to us normally.”

-That’s amazing to me, but I couldn’t read the text. sorry…

“There is no need to apologize. Hmm, then do I have to explain things like common sense out loud? I’m not very confident in that kind of thing…”

In any case, unless you can cancel the summons, you can’t just let them roam around freely, so you’ll have to stay with them, but to do that, you need to instill some common sense.

“There’s no need to rush, right?”

At that time, Eun No-eul sticks her head out through the partition and looks at us with her chin resting.

“It hasn’t even been a day since you came to this world, right? If you spend a few days, you will get used to it. I think you have a good head.”

“Is that so? Tsk… Ah, then you should decide in advance who you will be staying with…”

Quaaaang!

“No, guys! Aren’t you going too far in forgetting about me!?”

Ciella Letel suddenly bursts in, kicking in the door with such force that it seems as if she will break it down, and raises her voice as if she is slightly upset.

-Is this an intruder!? We will repel you!

“Huh? Ah! Now, let’s sleep…”

Before I can finish my sentence, a coffee pot full of hot water flies toward Letel.

“Huh? What is this!”

Ugh-!

The phenomenon that occurred immediately was so amazing that it was hard to believe it even with your own eyes.

No, in fact, I have seen many similar scenes in various media.

Things like wormholes, black holes, and space movement are common topics.

However, seeing it in front of you feels different and makes you exclaim with admiration.

“Tsk tsk.”

The coffee pot, which was flying furiously, disappeared beyond the swirling space and was suddenly in Letel’s hand.

“Why did this suddenly fly in? Could it be that someone attacked me?”

-Tch! Cheeky on the topic of intruders…!

“Stop! Rael! Stop! You’re not an intruder!”

-Is that so…?

Rael stood tall, frozen as he was about to do something, and looked around carefully.

-Are you a guest? Well, sorry if that’s the case! I have committed irreparable disrespect…!

“No, it’s okay, just calm down.”

“Huh? What is Han Gil doing in the air? Does he have an imaginary friend? Is there something on his mind?”

Letel tilted his head and made a rude noise, but he completely ignored it.

“Retel. What brought you here?”

Meanwhile, Eunno-eul quickly steps forward and glares at Retel.

“What brought you here!? Noeul! I know you were out of your mind, but I feel so bad when you say that! Did you really forget!?”

Noeul sighs as she holds on to her forehead as she rushes to hug him.

“Let me explain first. What’s going on?”

“You really forgot…”

She pointed at me, her arms hanging limply.

“No, I was first dispatched to guard Hangil, right?”

“…ah.”

“Ugh… I can’t believe my existence has been completely forgotten, I’m not even Saeron…”

Heo Sae-ron’s lips stick out at those words.

“Sister. Isn’t that a bit hurtful?”

“Ah! I’m sorry! Saeron! I definitely didn’t mean to say that! I tend to say things without thinking, right? Please forgive me!”

“Haa…you’re so crazy, so don’t raise your voice. Anyway…you’re saying you came here to protect Hangil oppa, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. So I waited for you guys to come back from the post, and I waited for you to contact me…! How does it make sense that you came back a long time ago and there was no contact at all!? Does it make sense to know later than the ‘office workers’ at the branch? !”

“Well, you should have taken care of that yourself. Where in the world is the person being escorted looking for an escort?”

“Well, that might be true, but…”

Letel, who was wiggling his fingers, sighed with a slightly pouty face.

“Ha… Still, it looks like everyone came back safely. That’s good. It doesn’t look like there were any injuries…”

She swept up her red hair and looked in this direction.

“Anyway, that’s the way it is, Hangil. I’ll take care of you at your house from today.”

“Huh? No, wait a minute. What is that…”

“Hey, just speak informally. I also speak informally, so why? For your information, I’m the same age as Noeul?”

“…What do you mean? You’re staying at my house?”

“That’s natural. It’s a close escort.”

“No, no matter what…”

“Normally, they don’t go this far, but you need to do that, Han-gil, who has a history of being kidnapped from his home. Besides, you didn’t hear any news about Pandora of the Salvation while you were at the post, right? Those guys seem to be very blatantly targeting you.”

“……”

As I was speechless and speechless, she smiled.

“So the Management Bureau is also keeping an eye on you. There are already many talented people and supernatural entities around this company?”

“Wait a minute. That’s a fact that even the branch manager didn’t know?”

“That’s because it was decided by the head office. The importance of Hangil was reviewed internally and it was decided that it was more important than expected.”

She straightens her back and folds her fingers one by one.

“First of all, he belongs to the Management Bureau, has friendly abilities, and is powerful enough to kill Averill Hinds. At the same time, he is a talented person who can figure out a way to gain points. Moreover, he is still going in and out of posts repeatedly, so there is a possibility that he will continue to become stronger in the future… Management Bureau. “How could you possibly miss someone like this?”

“……”

“For your information, I guess it would be the same in the world of salvation, right? Hangil. Wouldn’t I be better than those guys?”

“That’s right. Please take care of me, Siella Letel.”

I was a little displeased with the reality of having to give in to the fact that the risk had increased rather than the reluctance of having a stranger in my house, but it didn’t seem right to not do anything about the possibility of being kidnapped again.

…and, honestly, I’m excited to be living under the same roof with such a beautiful woman.

“…Hangil oppa. Why do you think you like it?”

Sunset, with her eyes wide open, stares at me.

“Uh, huh? Me? No? I guess not? I’m in trouble and I don’t know what to do. I’m in a mess.”

“…Retel. There’s no need to live at Hangil’s house, right?”

“Huh? No, but if you want to protect it clearly…”

“The house next to your brother just happened to be empty, so I’ll stay there.”

“There’s no need to do that? Just in one house…”

“Do as I say.”

Letel, who was clearly smiling but facing the cool shadow of the sunset, gulped and swallowed dry saliva.

“Oh, okay. I’ll do that.”

“Okay. Oh, and Hangil oppa.”

“Uh, huh? Why?”

I was a little scared and startled.

She smiles and hands me a piece of paper.

“Oppa, since you are required to work overtime today, you will have to leave work a little late.”

“…Eligible for overtime? What is that?”

“This building we work in, an ‘ordinary small business,’ randomly assigns people to work overtime every day.”

“……”

Well, it’s not that funny.

“You don’t have to worry because I’m just taking time off and leaving work a little later.”

“Isn’t forced overtime itself a problem…? What happens if you don’t work overtime? Will your salary be lower?”

“That’s not it. Something embarrassing, annoying, or painful happens randomly.”

“Yes…?”

“Last month, an employee was summoned to the first floor lobby while showering. This is an ‘embarrassing incident.’”

Isn’t that social murder?

“…I will do it.”

“Yes. It won’t be that difficult. As long as you follow the manual.”

Her bright, friendly smile was somehow a little scary.

I don’t know what it is, but I’m sure they’re not making you work overtime to vent their anger, right?

Oh, no way.
