episode_0110

The original protagonist is addicted to tteokbokki.

I loved the food called tteokbokki so much that I always ate tteokbokki every time I met a heroine, and whenever I got together with many people, I ate tteokbokki.

Usually, unless men are very close to a woman, they just go for pasta or sushi, or if their wallet is a little better, they go to a steakhouse.

However, the main character honestly said from the beginning that he would eat tteokbokki.

I thought that maybe it was a blond-haired foreigner trying to survive in Korea, but now that I think about it, I think it may have just been the author’s love of tteokbokki.

‘Whenever Tteokbokki was described, it was described in unnecessary detail.’

The description was so detailed and verbose that I was confused as to whether I was reading a Gukppong light novel or an essay by a tteokbokki gourmet critic over there.

As a matter of fact, there were more descriptions related to tteokbokki in one episode than tiki-taka with the heroine, so it was natural for readers to say that the text was covered in tteokbokki or that it was full of bumps every time the story of tteokbokki came up.

Of course I didn’t read that part.

However, there were a few times when I seriously wanted to quit when I realized that the only article published a day was praising tteokbokki, or even when there was no comment.

Still, there were a few times when I thought, ‘I’ve written this much, should I read it at least once?’, and in the end, as I read it, I learned about the main character’s taste for tteokbokki.

The main character is the author’s alter ego.

The author was a person who was crazy about tteokbokki.

Therefore, it is natural that Ymir likes tteokbokki.

however.

“What did you just say?”

“The first one is tteokbokki.”

Ymir picked up a large piece of rice cake with chopsticks and placed it on the plate in front of him.

Then, he stretched it out, put the end of the rice cake in his mouth, and started chewing it.

“Yes, the first one is tteokbokki. Although I am fried food.”

I picked up the fried squid with chopsticks.

The fried food rolled into a ring had a slightly larger hole than making a ring with your fingers, and a little tteokbokki broth was poured on the plate in front of it.

“……Hmm.”

Ymir frowned as if he didn’t like something, but I stirred the inside of the fried squid with my chopsticks.

“……!!”

Ymir’s eyes began to shake greatly.

He was just eating the rice cake with his mouth full, but as if he had a moment of anxiety, he broke the rice cake and put down the plate in front of him.

“Cough. What are you doing now?”

“Soaking in sauce.”

Stir the inside of the ring with chopsticks.

Tteokbokki juice began to drip onto the tip of my chopsticks, and I lightly grabbed the fried squid from both sides with it.

“……Teacher?”

“Why.”

“What are you doing now?”

“You eat rice. With you.”

Pick up the oval-shaped fried squid with chopsticks and take a big bite.

Thanks to the delivery, it cooled down just enough so I didn’t burn my palate, and I lightly shrugged my eyes at Ymir as I chewed the fries.

“Why.”

“…….”

Ymir frowned, then reached for the fries.

Car shot.

With an openly dissatisfied look on her face, she took a big bite of fried red pepper.

I chewed the fried food as if I was chewing beef, not chewy, but chewing loudly on purpose.

“Isn’t it delicious?”

“No. It’s delicious. I usually eat like this.”

“Eating unluckily. You will never be able to do mukbang or anything like that later. I think the viewership ratings will drop sharply.”

“Can I ever go on a variety show?”

“You don’t know that.”

I grabbed a large piece of tteokbokki, put it on the plate in front of me, and then wrapped the rice cake with fish cake sari.

Even though it was soaked in soup, I could see at a glance that it still had a chewy texture, and I took a big bite of the rice cake wrapped in fish cake.

“…….”

“Why again.”

“Do you have scissors?”

“Yes. But don’t Westerners really like using scissors at the table?”

“Humans use tools when they need them.”

Ymir took the scissors from me and quickly started cutting the long fries.

The fried fish cake broke in half, the seaweed roll disintegrated with the glass noodles spilling out from the inside, and the extra fried red pepper was ruined beyond words.

“Now that I think about it, I ate it without cutting it. Should I cut the rice cake too?”

“I’ll just cut it in half.”

Ymir kept scissoring while looking at me, but I didn’t really care.

If you are protesting to me by using such a ‘metaphor’, then this person is much more of a player in that regard.

“I was so hungry that I ate and was out of my mind. Just a moment.”

I took out two tall glass cups from the kitchen shelf and poured the plum-flavored drink that came with them.

“Is spicy food okay?”

“It’s okay, okay. Teacher, you can eat spicy food quite well.”

“This is nothing. Because I often eat spicy food, I have become disciplined.”

“I don’t think you usually eat it?”

“My wife likes spicy food.”

Ymir’s hands stiffened as he drank his drink.

“Your wife likes spicy food. I see.”

Now, round 2 begins.

“How much do you like it?”

“To the point where I could eat a complete pork cutlet.”

“……Isn’t that notorious for being extremely spicy?”

“That’s right.”

Even though it was a very spicy dish, my wife, ‘the head’, was able to finish it.

Besides that, I enjoyed all kinds of spicy food, and every time I ate with the leader, my stomach felt like it was on fire.

“If you feel like you can’t eat it, tell me. Since you are a talented person, I will tell you a solution later.”

“Is there something?”

“It’s not something to talk about while eating.”

“Uhm…. Okay.”

Ymir immediately nodded and chewed the rice cake and swallowed it.

“Teacher. Since the teacher told me one good thing, shall I also tell you one good thing?”

“A good one? What is it?”

“Um, something about this ability?”

Ymir took a sip of the drink in his mouth and moistened his lips with his tongue.

Anything that seems glamorous is probably just an illusion.

I guess I just wiped my lips with my tongue because they felt hot.

“You can have this kind of ability, something like that.”

“Are you talking about this ability listed on the wiki?”

“Well? Some things exist, some things don’t.”

aha.

He wants to make a deal with him now.

If I tell you the know-how of goblins, Ymir says he will teach you this ability that he stole from the demons as the Platinum Sun.

“It’s fun. So, what is this ability that student Ymir came up with?”

“Um….”

Ymir put down the plate in front of him, brought his upper body slightly closer to me, and smiled.

“Space movement?”

“…….”

Just hearing something is amazing.

“It is the ability to take coordinates and move through space.”

“Student Ymir says that is possible?”

“Me? Oh, no way. If that were possible, I would just show up everywhere.”

Ymir waved his hand.

However, her eyes were slightly smiling, and just by looking at her, she was giving a look that said, ‘Ymir is impossible, but Platinum Sun is possible.’

“Even goblins wouldn’t be able to move through space, right?”

“Wouldn’t it be possible to do something similar?”

“Oh my, really?”

“If you try, you won’t be able to do anything.”

If you move and appear through spirit embodiment, that is spatial movement.

It will eat up a lot of mana, though.

“The goblin on Sejong Island appears on Jeju Island 30 minutes later, or something like that.”

“30 minutes…. Hmm. What I want to talk about is a technique that takes very little time and allows you to move on to another place in literally 1 second.”

“Is that even possible?”

“Really?”

“Maybe.”

This is a technique that cannot be used unless you are prepared to use 90% of your magic power and the transformation will be released immediately.

And if I use that technology, there is only one destination for me to go to.

Next to the commander.

‘It’s a contradiction.’

Throwing everything else away and running to the commander’s side means that the situation is dangerous, but to actually move like that, I have to use up 90% of my magical power.

It’s not like an emergency escape device, but in fact, it’s a useless technology for anything other than the purpose of meeting the leader.

This ability is useless even if it is assisted by archery or other people’s magic power.

Unfortunately.

But what if it’s a being overflowing with magic like Ymir?

“Student Ymir. Do you know how easy it is to move through space? I have to calculate coordinates, there can’t be any objects in the space I’m moving to, and above all, I have to be sure that I have to move everything I have to that place.”

“…….”

“Why?”

“No. I thought you were talking like someone with special abilities.”

“This is a thought I had while frequently reading novels and movies. Even if you don’t have this ability, you can imagine having this ability, right? is not it? Just like assuming that E-level student Ymir can use the ability to move through space.”

“Hmm….”

Neither Ymir nor I have any intention of showing off our abilities here.

“If I meet a goblin, I should ask it. Is it really possible to move through space?”

“I don’t know if student Ymir will ever encounter a goblin, but please ask carefully. Do you know anything? If student Ymir just provides an idea, the goblin might release the bundle.”

“Will the goblin release the bundle to the aspiring hero?”

“If you’re not a villain or a devil, what can’t you do? If you say you’re going to purge evil villains like yourself, wouldn’t they help you and say it’s right?”

“I don’t think the goblin is aiming for something either.”

” Student Ymir should answer that on his own. I don’t know what they want from aspiring heroes.”

If the goblin and the platinum sun meet one day, they will exchange skills that will be useful to each other.

A win-win for both sides.

It’s an ideal relationship.

“Hmm… Now that I think about it, it would definitely be convenient to have something like space movement. If I learn that, won’t I be able to come into your house at any time and do that?”

“Do you want to be reported for home invasion?”

“Then, teacher, if you could move through space, where would you want to go? Where is your wife?”

“Hmm…. It’s a place I want to go.”

I lightly lifted the glass and held it up to Ymir.

“Ulleungdo.”

“……Why?”

“Because I can be patriotic for more than 3 days and 2 nights as much as I want without worrying about what others think.”

“…3 days and 2 nights?”

“Uh.”

Ymir quietly looked at me and munched on his tteokbokki.

“2 nights, 3 days…patriotism?”

“Of course.”

“Well, that much…? Is that possible?”

“Okay. Even if I look like this.”

I leisurely drank my drink and narrowed my eyes at Ymir.

” This is a man who went on a patriotic trip with his wife on Christmas and came back to see the sunrise on New Year’s.”

If you’re confident, try it seriously.
