No, what country’s phone etiquette is it that someone calls first and then keeps his mouth shut when asked what he was calling about?

From the looks of it, if I leave it alone, it looks like it will remain silent forever, but if that’s the case, there’s nothing I can do about it.

If you don’t want to open your mouth, we have no choice but to force you to do so.

“If you have nothing more to say, hang up?”

-Now, wait!

“Tell me.”

-···weekend.

weekend?

-What are you doing this weekend?

Because this weekend.

“Hmm, asking for a date is a bit difficult.”

-Crazy bastard.

“I have a prior agreement.”

This weekend, I decided to stop by the daycare center for the first time in a while.

There is an option to put off visiting the orphanage until later and go see Rahee this week, but once you start putting it off, there is no end to it.

-You probably don’t have an appointment for both days.

“Is that planned?”

So I said that with the intention of refusing, but Rahee’s voice suddenly quieted down.

-Are you going on a trip somewhere else?

“Well, a trip is a trip.”

Since I’m already down there, I’m planning to spend the night there and then come back up.

That’s why I firmly cut off Rahee’s conversation when she asked what my schedule was for the weekend.

If I leave on Saturday morning, I will probably not return to Seoul until Sunday afternoon. How can I possibly have time to meet anyone?

That’s why I refused…

-Do you like it? Are there a lot of women to travel with?

How on earth did he come to that conclusion?

“What, I’m going home?”

-···.

I think I was very embarrassed because I misunderstood and ended up playing drums and janggu on my own.

Silence fell once again.

Well, it seemed like that wasn’t necessarily the only reason for the silence.

Because he probably knows that.

The house I was talking about was not like a familiar hometown home that anyone who grew up in a normal family would have, but rather an orphanage.

“Anyway, it looks like you’ll be busy going there over the weekend, so if you’re going to see it, do it after the weekend is over.”

Of course, unlike me, who still maintains the status of a hunter, Rahee is an active hunter and is in the spotlight within the industry, so it may not be easy to find time on weekdays…

Isn’t it true that a thirsty person digs a well?

I was wondering if my meeting with Rahee would be around next week…

-Where are you?

“Huh? What?”

-Uh…the place you’re going to.

“Do you know Jo Chi-won?”

Judging by the lack of reaction, it seems like I heard this for the first time today.

-Is that Sejong City?

“Uh.”

-Sejong City is not that far away. Are you going by car?

“Well, that’s true…”

No, are you really trying to follow this…?

Honestly, I was a little embarrassed.

It was because I had never even thought of such a case.

“···Are you really going to come?”

-Then it must be fake?

“No, that…”

-There won’t be a shortage of workers anyway.

“That’s…”

It was like that.

Although there were nuns and daycare teachers, the number of children was close to dozens, so the amount of laundry put out each day was enormous.

Of food, clothing, and shelter, ‘righteousness’ alone is that much, but what if we add the rest together?

It can be said that it is impossible to handle without the help of children and volunteers.

Therefore, the more workers there were, the better it was for the orphanage…

“But you are a bit…”

-What’s wrong with me!

“I think I might lose my temper with the kids.”

-Huh… how much the kids like me these days.

“Well, well…”

It’s not an award that kids will like.

After all, isn’t he rather flashy in appearance?

Since the talent that was awakened was to control fire, it was a condition that the little ones had no choice but to go crazy.

-Okay, tell me when you’re going to leave.

“First of all, I plan to leave around Saturday morning…”

Considering that it is the weekend and the possibility of traffic congestion, you should leave around 8 o’clock at the latest to arrive in time for lunch.

-You have to leave at 8 o’clock at the latest, right? So, are you going to go to your studio until 7:30?

“Huh?”

-Goes?

“Yeah, right…”

Surprisingly, the call ended there.

I was going to tell her why she wanted to meet me, but Rahee hung up the phone without even looking back, as if that was enough because she heard the answer.

Thanks to this, instead of wondering what I was wondering, I heard a beep sound indicating that the phone was disconnected.

Just like that, an unexpected person came along as a companion.

*****

Is it because of my schedule for the weekend?

Time literally flew by.

The day I spoke with Rahee on the phone was Tuesday, and when I came to my senses, it was already 7 o’clock on Saturday morning.

‘Is this actually the first time since I got the app that I’ve been attached to reality for this long…?’

When the two of us went on a trip to the beach to discipline Rahee, we stayed in reality for two days, but this time, including today, we have been staying in reality for a whopping 5 days.

Maybe that was what had an impact.

I’ve been in a strange mood these past few days.

I guess I should say that even though the place I am right now is real, I couldn’t feel any sense of reality.

I went to the lecture in that state, so when I think about it now, it was a good thing that I didn’t listen to the professors.

Fortunately, this week was all focused on theory, so nothing major happened. If there had been at least a sparring session in the middle, an accident would have definitely occurred.

In that respect, the act of typing out what I remembered from my experience in another world and saving it on my computer was more helpful than I thought.

Originally, it was just an action to avoid confusion later.

As I sat in front of the monitor and wrote down the things I had experienced in the other world on a notepad, the feeling that the reality that had been persistently tormenting me for the past few days did not feel like reality seemed to be relieved.

In fact, that was why I thought that there might be a need for measures in relation to that.

I was able to get through it this time using that method, but there was no guarantee that the same method would work next time.

The problem is that even if you try to come up with a solution, it is not suitable…

‘How… should I even make a self-suggestion or something?’

Thanks to that, I had that thought, but I decided to leave that as a last resort.

I know this because I have used it once in the world of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but when you hint to yourself, even if the effect is certain, it is difficult to predict the result.

That was pretty much what I did not long after I acquired the power of hypnosis, and there is no need to say it now that it has changed beyond recognition.

So, here, rather than relying on the power of hypnosis to find a solution, it would be a reasonable decision to find another method.

‘Hmm…’

I wonder if I can’t come up with a good method somewhere.

Until a couple of days ago, I had high hopes for the bracelet I got as a special reward, but despite my expectations, this bracelet has been unappreciated for several days.

I don’t know if there is a hidden condition for activating the bracelet’s effect, but it seems so.

After a while of staring at the bracelet that looked even cheaper today, I slowly got up from the bed.

It was good to be wet from sleep, but it was dangerous if I didn’t wash it off quickly.

So, as I was quickly washing my body and drying my hair, someone knocked on the front door.

When I checked the time, the clock hand was already pointing at 7:30.

Anyway, even though it may not seem like it, I secretly have a strict sense of time…

“Hey! Soohyun Yoon!”

Although my hair wasn’t dry yet, I felt like if I left it like that, instead of waiting for the door to be opened, they would break down the door and come in, so I calmly put down the hair dryer and headed toward the entrance.

“If that’s the case, why don’t you just destroy it?”

“What if it’s late?ㄹㅡ”

For a moment, Rahee’s eyes widened slightly as she countered my words as if they were absurd.

Then, he started spreading something that resembled his own hair color over his face.

“Mi, you crazy bastard!”

“Muyo.”

“You have to put on your clothes and open the door!”

No, after seeing so many scenes worse than this, why did I make such a fuss with my panties?

What’s more, if you’re going to say that, you should at least look somewhere else and say it like that. You’re now pretending to be in and out of a topic that has been glancing downwards since a while ago.

” That’s it, now I just have to get dressed, so I’ll go down and wait. ”

I don’t know what his intention was, but he gently pushed Rahee out as she tried to sneak into the room, then dried her hair neatly, starting with the hair that had not been dried yet, and went downstairs wearing the clothes he had prepared in advance.

What I was faced with was Rahee, who was standing a long distance away from my car with a somewhat pouty look on her face.

“Would you like to move separately in your own car?”

“···Were you going to get on it now?!”

With Rahee in the passenger seat, we headed to Sejong City, where the orphanage was located.

“Ah, that’s right. Did you bring your license?”

“···? Why the license all of a sudden?”

“If you brought it with you, let’s stop by for a moment on the way.”

“What…?”
