It was an ordinary holiday.

A day to reward the body and mind tired from work.

“Aren’t you going to go outside?”

“It’s raining~. And today, I decided to have a sweet time at home with Eunha!”

Because she was tormented by monsters every day, Eunha was busy straining her body and mind even on her days off at the cafe.

Perhaps sensing Eunha’s fatigue, Eunbangul locked Eunha at home without even mentioning where she had plans to go.

There is no cafe work, and it is a place far away from the ‘Saetstar Apartment’.

It’s been a long time since I celebrated… a real holiday.

Peace comes to Eunha’s heart.

“Wow… It’s similar in size to the house I used to live in. The owner is amazing… I can’t see the housekeeper, and there’s no dust at all.”

Na-ri Kang was quietly amazed as she looked at the pictures lined up on the wall one by one.

As I comb my sapphire-blue hair with my fingers, I recall faded memories that will never return.

As she looks around the spacious living room, perhaps recalling some sad memory, I sense something elegant and noble about her.

“……If you think about it, Nari Kang must have lived in a rich family like this too.”

“In the old days. So, when I first entered the semi-basement, I was shocked. The house was so small that I thought it was a pet house… but there were no pets, only cockroaches.”

Kang Na-ri trembles as she remembers her semi-basement friends.

Soon after, she took off a picture of Eunha from the wall and tried to put it in her handbag, but was taken down by the rabbit girl who came running and fell to the living room floor.

Those two people have somehow gotten along better.

Eunha, who was watching the fight between the rabbit and the debt collector, burst into laughter.

An ordinary holiday. Ordinary daily life.

It disappeared after picking up the [Black Book].

Eunha felt happy for the first time in a long time.

– But it doesn’t matter. The more territory you have, the better.

– If you leave Saetbyeol Apartment and live in another place, we can also make that place a new territory.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’m not too worried about the monsters in the apartment.

It’s not like I’m moving, I’m just staying in a different house for one night.

If you think about the rule about not liking staying out, it’s not a big deal.

When Eunha leaves the ‘Saetstar Apartment’ and runs away to somewhere else, this is probably a rule to follow her wherever she goes.

The guidebook also says that staying out overnight is recommended under certain circumstances… so staying out for a short time won’t be a big problem.

… … That’s what I thought.

… … .

… … .

I’m going to sleep at Bang’s house.

In other words, there is no need to return to the ‘Saetstar Apartment’, which is full of monsters, today.

I feel free from all my problems.

Because of this, Eunha was stuck on the living room sofa like melted slime… giving Ban Harin a lap pillow.

‘Ha, it’s so comfortable because I don’t have to worry about anything. You don’t have to worry about where something will pop out.’

Eunha was leaning against the back of a soft sofa.

And, Ban Harin lies on her soft thighs and plays a game on the game console she brought from home.

When I took a quick peek at the game console screen, I saw that it was an apocalypse game where you control a pink space monster to eat all the living things on the planet.

This person surprisingly likes games.

“Why are you playing the game on my lap?”

“It’s nice because it’s soft and has shade.”

“what.”

I looked down to see what he was thinking when he said that.

Ban Harin’s face cannot be seen because it is hidden by his large chest.

For some reason, Eunha was so irritated that she deliberately bent down and interrupted Ban Ha-rin while he was playing the game.

Ban Harin, whose face is covered in a heavy and soft texture, lets out an exclamation for no reason.

“…What are you two doing?”

“It’s interfering with the game.”

“Eup… Eup…”

“Don’t do anything weird, I’ll give you a card, so just buy two servings of spaghetti from the supermarket. One rosé and one cream.”

The magnificent home of Eunbangul.

In this space, which is large enough for four members of the cafe family, we can relax without any hesitation.

“I’ll be back for a bit.”

“yes.”

Eunha waved her hand to Ban Harin, who was going out to buy pasta.

Eunbangul prepared dinner in the kitchen, and Kang Nari went up to the second floor and explored every corner of the house.

Raindrops gently hit the window.

like that,

Everyone turned their eyes away from Eunha,

Prison…

Someone laid down on the sofa with Eunha’s thighs resting on her back.

“hmm?”

A light weight pressing down on your thighs.

Eunha, who had been watching TV blankly, lowered her head.

Who is it?

The face cannot be seen because it is covered by the large chest.

Maybe it’s a bell.

‘Did Bangul wear clothes like that?… Whatever.’

Eunha patted the stomach of ‘someone’ who was lying on her knees and focused on the TV.

“My stomach is so soft.”

『The little one’s thighs are also soft.』

I can feel the chilly cold through the thick sweater.

… … .

… … .

Time passes, dinner time.

The weather is rainy.

Eunha sat down at the table that the rabbit girl had ambitiously prepared,

I received a gift prepared by Ban Harin.

“Eunha. This is a gift to congratulate you on your promotion. Use this to destroy the monsters’ earthen pots as much as you like.”

“Wow… thank you.”

A gift commemorating your promotion.

A pitch-black titanium bat, neatly tied with a ribbon, greets Eunha.

“This is a weapon made from titanium from the ‘Vodka Bear’ native to Russia.”

“There are monsters like that too.”

“It’s heavier than the aluminum bat I used before… but if you use ‘Body Strengthening’, you won’t have much trouble swinging it. As it is heavier, it has excellent killing power, so I guarantee it will be a great help in battles with monsters.”

Kuungㅡ.

Ban Harin, who set the titanium bat next to Eunha, explained with an expressionless face.

A cold voice that shows no emotion.

But the warmth contained within is clearly felt.

There was definitely a need for a weapon. [The Red Woman]’s jigsaw is difficult to use carelessly, and more than anything, it is a borrowed item.

This is a gift I really like.

Eunha, soaked in emotion, hugged Ban Harin’s head.

Ban Harin’s warmth came through the thick sweater.

… … .

“Sister~! Blow out the candles on the cake!”

“Do you have to? It’s embarrassing.”

“It’s a celebration party~.”

That’s how dinner started.

Menus that exclude meat and focus on carbohydrates and vegetarian food.

Eunha looked down at the cake prepared by Eunbangul and smiled shyly.

Pure white strawberry cake.

Five candles that burn themselves hard.

I thought the ‘promotion celebration party’ was just an excuse to hang out, but it’s more serious than I thought.

‘Maybe it’s because there are so many pictures of me around me, but I’m so distracted.’

But isn’t it the human heart to shake your butt when you receive congratulations?

Eunha quickly sang a congratulatory song and then blew out the candles on the cake.

Clap clap clap clap.

Clap clap clap clap.

Clap clap clap clap.

Clap clap clap clap.

Clap clap clap clap.

Tagadagakㅡ.

Applause.

Sounds of celebration for Eunha’s D-class promotion.

The sound of applause as cool as the sound of rain falling outside the window.

The sound of applause from six people blesses the galaxy.

… … .

… … .

“Sister! I’m going to wash the dishes, so please take out the trash.”

“okay.”

Nothing much happened after that.

After dinner, I went outside to take out the trash.

I picked up Ban Harin, who was rolling around on the sofa, and we all played a game together.

The four of us gathered together, took a commemorative photo, and played Dunga Dunga until Bang Bang was satisfied.

In some ways, being peaceful is similar to being boring,

Therefore, nothing interesting happened that I could share with others.

“Ugh, Eunha?! Put your clothes on and come out!”

“Ah… I’m sorry. I’m a bit distracted today.”

Eunha quickly finished showering, throwing Bang Bang on the sofa when she asked to go into the bathroom with her.

As she dried her hair, she briefly talked with Nari Kang about the ‘blood potion’.

A potion made from Eunha’s blood that Kang Na-ri successfully created a few days ago.

However, because the effect of the potion is so strong, it seems that they have been looking for an appropriate dilution ratio for several days.

Are you saying that every day is enjoyable because it is moderately difficult?

Eunha thought that good things were good things, so she did not interfere much and supported her.

“Hmm. Okay. I’ve stopped everything.”

Eunha dried her hair while looking at the back of her head reflected in the mirror and unplugged the dryer.

… … .

… … .

So, time passes.

Night has come.

“Eunha. How about sharing the same bed with me?”

“Can I hear why?”

“There are only three beds in Eunbangul’s house. Today, Kang Na-ri is there too, so we don’t have enough space.”

“I sleep with my clothes off.”

“therefore.”

“So, whatever. Sleep on the sofa.”

“We’ll see.”

Ban Harin, who had already laid out a blanket on the sofa, comes to visit and complains.

The bedroom in the corner of the second floor.

Eunha slapped Ban Harin’s back and kicked him out, then lay down on the soft bed.

A picture of cumulus clouds attached to the ceiling catches my eye.

Bell took a lot of pictures.

‘There’s no place without photos… I’ll have to buy Bangpolyi an expensive camera later. Mr. Banharin…’

I patted the titanium bat placed next to the bed.

The cool, heavy sensation calms her mind.

A hectic celebration party.

Something… the day passed quickly.

Why does time pass so quickly during holidays?

Are you living without your brain and unable to perceive the passage of time?

‘Still, I had a good rest. I had a lot of fun with the bells and received a nice gift… I’ll be able to work hard tomorrow too.’

Patter. Fighting.

Rain hitting the window.

The cold comes and I cover my shoulders with the blanket.

Eunha, who was lying alone in bed, played with her smartphone for about an hour and then fell asleep.

… … .

… … .

Ta-ga-da-gak.

The sound of castanets.

A stealthy, cautious gesture.

‘… … hmm?’

Eunha woke up to the sound of someone entering her bed.

Rustling…

Something gets into the blanket.

A small shape. The familiar smell of a humidifier hits the bridge of my nose.

‘Someone’ purses his lips in case Eunha wakes up, lifts one arm of Eunha, who is lying on her side, and snuggles into his arms.

Pooh… The carefully exhaled breath caresses Eunha’s skin.

‘… … Fly?’

I think in my sleep.

Are you dreaming?

That child can’t be here.

Tiny fingers hold on to Eunha.

He opens his mouth as if he is hungry and takes in a lot of her skin.

An immature and weak grip that can be easily shaken off with a little struggle.

It’s so trivial and cute that it makes me laugh.

‘I guess I’m hungry… It’s an itchy, strange feeling.’

Eunha hugged the girl in her arms and fell asleep again.

… … .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sweet holiday is over.

Good times slip through your fingers like a broken hourglass,

A new day begins.

“I’m hungry… what?”

Eunha woke up with an unbearable empty stomach and got up from the bed.

I’m hungry. As if the large dinner I had yesterday had disappeared from my stomach.

She feels mildly dizzy and her blood demands sugar.

‘Well, it’s okay. ‘It’s good if digestion is fast.’

I checked the time on my smartphone and it was 5 am.

I woke up earlier than usual because I was hungry.

It didn’t seem like she would fall asleep even if she lay in bed, so Eunha put on the underwear, jeans, and thick sweater she had left nearby and left the bedroom.

When I came down the stairs to the first floor, I saw Ban Harin asleep on the sofa in the living room.

This is my first time seeing that person sleeping. Is this person a person who sleeps surprisingly a lot?

The kitchen facing that way.

Eunha was looking at the refrigerator filled with pictures of herself, and after a moment of contemplation, she turned around and headed toward the entrance.

I’m hungry, but I don’t want to open someone else’s refrigerator.

I’m thinking of going for a morning walk and buying rice balls at a convenience store.

Sigh…

Van Harin, who was so deeply asleep that no one would know if he was carrying him, secretly left the house, dragging the suitcase containing the [Black Book].

“You woke up early today.”

“hello.”

I said hello to the elderly security guard sitting next to the gate.

Is it because I can’t sleep, or does my eyes open early as I get older?

Even at this time, he remains firmly in his seat, sitting down on a newspaper and molding a clay doll with leisurely hands.

He’s an old man sitting on the street fiddling with clay… Is this correct?

It would be quite shocking if they were doing this because there was no security office.

“……No. Why are you here? What about the apartment?”

“Hehe. It’s too late to realize it.”

and,

Only then.

Eunha, who felt uncomfortable, hugged her shocked chest and looked down at the elderly man.

Eyes widened to their limit look around.

Just one day.

Staying out for a day

Can’t you wait for that too?

Can’t you just relax a little?

Because [self-healing] makes it impossible to kill him physically, he would rather kill him mentally.

I feel a terrible level of malice.

“……Elder. I also have newspaper.”

“Please sit down.”

Feelings of despair took over her body, Eunha collapsed into the seat next to the elderly security guard.

I’m hungry.

But I don’t want to eat.

Will they be satisfied if they starve to death like this?

‘ah. Even if I starve, I won’t die…’

I became sadder.

Eunha raised the corners of her mouth and looked happy.

Okay. Rather good.

I couldn’t last even a day and the monsters chased after me.

It’s so popular.

Even if you happen to be kidnapped by bad people, you will be able to escape without problem after a day or two.

“Please at least tell me you’ll follow me next time. My heart almost dropped… Is it okay to show up unexpectedly, regardless of the rules?”

“Is that possible? You followed the rules well yesterday too.”

“Me?”

Eunha taps her cheek in response to the elder’s words.

Her eyes tremble as if an earthquake has occurred.

You followed the rules… what?

Besides the old man, did other strange creatures come to visit?

I don’t remember clearly.

“……Well, what’s good is good. Follow me, old man. While we’re taking a walk, let’s go to the apartment together.”

“This old man doesn’t like to move.”

“Oh, please! Don’t stay close to the house. I’m going to die of anxiety.”

“Hehehe.”

It’s still 5 o’clock, so we can come back before everyone else wakes up.

Eunha picked up the elderly security guard who had collapsed on the floor and hurriedly headed to the apartment.

Perhaps because it is early morning, there are not a single car passing by in Euncheon-gu.

“Your world is so peaceful.”

“Follow me, old man. If you’re having a hard time, I’ll carry you on my back.”

The weather is cloudy.

A morning of taking a walk with an elderly security guard while holding back a sore stomach.

The next day of a peaceful holiday was a disaster.

… … .

… … .

『There, Mr. Hunter. Please help me.”
