Chapter 505 – Outbound Earth (45)

Earth is at peace. Humanity created a weapon to destroy itself, and the gate to the other world opened, and too much magic power for one planet to handle began to pass through, and sometimes uncontrolled magic power created monsters in the streets. Although there was—no one can deny the fact that the Earth is peaceful.

Cheol-su, who is taking the SAT soon, Nakamura, who made killing people a career, and citizens of Islamic countries whose mother died in a war today and whose older sister died yesterday.

The Earth is so peaceful that everyone thinks it would be better if the Earth perished.

“… Baby?”
“—Ah.”

And this story is the story of a galaxy and a child who met on such a peaceful earth.

* * *

Seeing her newborn baby abandoned in front of her house, Eun-ha looked around her with a puzzled expression uncharacteristic for her.

No one appeared to have abandoned the child and ran away. If there was such a person in the first place, there was no way she would have missed that sign.

In a word, this child appeared in front of her house as if teleported. Since there was no possibility that this young baby was a person with this ability, Galactic came up with her hypothesis that someone with a gifted person abandoned her baby in front of her house and ran away.

“Who the hell…”

Who the hell and why did he leave it here?

It wasn’t that her house was a wealthy family, so it didn’t look like she had the energy to pick up and raise her child, and it wasn’t that she was known to have a good personality.

She had been living in the same flat since the death of her father, and it was not, at best, the kind of flat that would be generous and generous enough to pick up and raise an abandoned child.

“Aaaaang-!”
“Ah, ah- ooh, don’t cry. Dou, pop!”

And then, seeing the crying child, Eun-ha started to panic. She was already a mother of one child, but she knew nothing about what to do when her child cried.

It was because whenever her child cried, the maids who lived in her house skillfully took her child and took care of it, and made her cry.

Eunha, who was not savvy enough to figure out how she learned what the maid was doing by her side for a moment, said she picked up her baby and started bobbing.

“Yes, it is pretty. Pretty. Huh? Don’t cry…”
“—I-san, auntie! Don’t cry in the hallway!”
“Yes yes? Oh, sorry, sorry… !”

After hearing the man next door yell at her, Eun-ha unknowingly took her child and went into her house. After she entered her house, she stopped crying and smiled at how good a child was.

Eun-ha let out a sigh of relief and began to think about what to do with this baby. Where to talk at a time like this? Police? If I call the cops, does she pick up the baby?

‘Uh, what should I do?’

She’s galactic and when she doesn’t know what to do, she tends to get stuck. She did it this time too. She stopped and watched her child in a daze, and after a while, she was startled and picked up the phone and contacted Dojin.

She was sorry to depend on her whenever anything happened, but at the same time, that one was the only thing she could cling to.

[Hello.]
“Ah, Dojin-ah… ?”
[Galaxy? What’s going on, you called first.]
“Hey, I need help…”
[What help? Where else should we go to play?]
“Yeah, that’s good too… I have a baby.”
[… What?]

For an instant, time stopped. Eun-ha, realizing the reason for Do-jin’s reaction, quickly denied it.

“Oh no! Not my kid! I picked it up!”
[Picking up a baby… What do you mean by that? Eunha.]

It was absurd even when Eunha herself thought about it, but it was true. She picked up the child and the child was now in her arms.

Would you believe me if I showed you the baby over a video call? Eunha lowered her head and turned her smartphone camera toward the baby in her arms.

“Babu.”
[—Is it Eunha? If I’m not mistaken.]
“Baaa-ge ahi-hya!”
[That child seems to have grown up a bit now.]

“… Do Jin-ah.”

Eun-ha, who was filming the baby with her smartphone, called Do-jin anxiously with a slightly embarrassed voice.

“Do-gina-do-gina!”
“—Come quickly.”
“Come quickly!”

The baby in front of her eyes was growing in real time.
And that too at a very high speed.

* * *

“Eunha!”

After a while, when Do-jin arrives at Eun-ha’s house. Dojin hesitated when he saw a child of three or four years old.

The child has already started walking on his own feet. She is an incredible sight considering that only a few minutes ago she was held in the arms of the galaxy.

Realistic, common sense, physical. It was impossible to explain the phenomenon in front of us no matter what standard we brought. There is only one thing that can do this. The child in front of me has awakened a supernatural power.

“You are not human. You.”

Not be a person Dojin quickly figured out the identity of the child. But as if she didn’t know what the child was talking about, she began to tilt her head.

“You, human, aren’t you?”
“Are you pretending you don’t know what to say, or are you really ignorant… Either way it’s creepy. Shall I kill you?”

Saying that, Do-jin took out the sword he had in his heart and finished preparing to lift it. And the life that spews out. If the baby who reacted to this life tried to resist something, she would fall from its neck in an instant and roll on her floor.

But surprisingly, the baby made a really childlike choice. She felt a living being coming towards her and stiffened. And she cried like a child.

“Huhhhhh-!”

She looked at the child who burst into sadness as if she did not know why she had to suffer like this, and Do-jin stopped and looked at the child, wondering if she had misunderstood.

The child who continued to burst into tears could not stop her crying until the end, and ran to her gear and hugged her in her arms.

“Uuuuu-!”
“Oh, uh-oh, baby. I am not your mother…”
“Oh my gosh-!”
“So even if it’s not your mother… !”

Perhaps because the first human she saw was Eunha, and because she was the least kind to herself. Because of Ai, she must be crying next to Eunha.

Do-jin saw the crying baby and reaped her life. Although she was an insecure bud, Do-jin was too human to kill a baby just because she was insecure.

“… Ehh, yes well- if there is a problem, we can go and deal with it then.”

Realizing that the power she felt from the child was not so great right away, and that although she was suspicious, she was not a threat to Eunha or themselves, Dojin sighed and settled down next to Eunha.

Then, the baby who burst into tears in Eunha’s arms moved to the other side of Dojin and hid herself behind Eunha’s body. It was a small galaxy, but it was suitable for hiding the body of a three or four year old child.

Seeing that, Dojin shrugged her shoulders as if asking what to do now.

“So— Eunha, what do you want to do?”
“Yes?”
“If you want—cry or not, I can kill you right now, or you can take me to the nursery.”
“… To the nursery school-“
“Mamia… ?”

It’s not my child, and Eun-ha, who was about to send the baby to an orphanage, hesitated as she saw the baby carefully pulling on her sleeve.

It was not her own child. She doesn’t need to give too much love. But, even so—she didn’t want to give this child memories similar to her own.

“… If you go to daycare, she’s going to be like this kid.”

“Well. I don’t know if it’s her ability or what, but if you look at her just now, she’ll grow up at an incredibly fast pace – so will she be kicked out of the nursery school soon? If she is unlucky, she could be caught and studied in a research institute somewhere.”

“So, you mean she won’t see very good things?”

“I can’t judge what the better life is for her. She’s not necessarily a bad research lab.”

After hearing what Dojin said, Eunha shook her head. Isn’t she the one who was abandoned and abused by her mother when she was young and by her and her father when she grew up?

She didn’t want to give this child the pain of being abandoned. She thought it was some kind of fate that a child with these abilities had come to her.

“… She grows quickly, so raising her won’t be too difficult.”
“A pet? …”
“Wouldn’t my son be a friend later when he grows up?”
“A friend…”
“Looking at it, it looks like it will grow up pretty, but I think it’s okay if you think of it as a collection of books you use when you want to use it rather than as a friend.”
“Ah…”

Hearing her words, Do-jin covered her face. I often forget because she’s always quiet, but she was the least normal of my wives.

After washing her face, Do-jin looked at her child with her slightly worried eyes. As if she still hated Do-jin, who spewed life into her, she hid behind Eun-ha and glared at her Do-jin.

‘You chose…’
