Chapter 282 – Bacon Eggs
I couldn’t sleep properly because of the breeze on the bare floor. My back was also swollen, and I didn’t use my pillow, so my neck got a bit of a lump. Still, it was better for me to be sick than for Demon King or Sehee.
I got up with that mindset. I put away my coat instead of the blanket and looked at the bed. There, Se-hee, who had woken up first, caught my eye as she was fiddling with her smartphone while covering herself with a blanket.
While staring blankly at her smartphone, she glanced at me.
“Are you awake?”
I nodded and just got up and asked in a low voice.
“Yeah, what time is it now?”
“It’s 11 o’clock.”
“Okay? It’s almost lunch, haaaaa
I yawned because I was still sleepy. Still, I wasn’t feeling well right now, so I got up.
I put the coat I slept under on a hanger, and put the clothes I used as a pillow in the drawer under the bed. Seeing the awake Sae-hee and the still-sleeping Demon King, he headed to the kitchen.
Jump
I opened the refrigerator door and looked inside. There were leftover cheese cubes from yesterday and the usual side dishes.
While thinking about what to make for breakfast or lunch, I asked Se-hee, who was lying on the bed.
“Sehee. Do you want something to eat?”
Immediately came her plaintive reply.
“Well.”
“So you don’t want to eat anything?”
“Anything is fine, anything.”
That’s the most annoying thing, ah.
I looked inside the refrigerator and turned my head to Sehee. She said to her still looking at her smartphone.
“Are bacon eggs okay?”
“Bacon and fried eggs?”
“Yeah, pancakes are fine if you want to eat them.”
“Good.”
“Then you go and buy the mix powder.”
“I just eat bacon and eggs.”
She knew it.
With that thought in mind, I took out the eggs and bacon from the fridge and put them on the sink. She put the frying pan on the induction stove and waited until it got hot enough.
In the meantime, I found my smartphone that I had put down before going to bed. The only contact I received while I was sleeping was a few advertisements and a group chat room for the 4 of us.
Minah: Does everyone have appointments on the 31st and 1st?
Sehee: I’m fine
Se-hee: Where are we going to spend the night?
Mina: There is a place I want to go with everyone.
Mina: What about the others?
Sehee: Unnie and oppa are all sleeping
I looked there and posted a reply.
Me: i’m fine
Right after that, I turned off the screen and headed for the kitchen. If it was this much, the frying pan would have been moderately heated.
First, I wet my hand in the sink with a little water and sprayed it on the frying pan on the induction stove. The water droplets formed small clusters and disappeared after wandering on the black iron plate. It seemed to be properly heated.
Seeing that, I opened the plastic wrap that wrapped the bacon. I picked up a bunch of greasy bagels with my bare hands and tossed them loosely into the hot frying pan.
Cheeik!
Immediately, the sound of meat cooking and the smell of burning fat came up at the same time. I hurriedly turned on the ventilation fan above the induction stove before the smell left the house.
Wheein!
Loud fan noise, plus the smell of fragrant meat. These two factors were enough to stimulate the sleeping devil.
“Uh, um… ?”
From the side of the bed, I heard the muttering of the demon king. In addition, Sehee’s voice continued, similar to when I woke up earlier.
“Sister, are you awake?”
“Um…”
Responding with a low moan, she made a sound of tossing and turning. Soon after, the sound of the soles of her feet rubbing against the floor made her feel as if she had gotten out of bed.
“Hmm…”
The Demon King, who groaned with a sigh, came to my side. To be precise, it was headed for the refrigerator right next to the kitchen sink.
She looked sideways at her as she pulled out her mineral water bottle from her refrigerator, then reached for her spoon. She took out the plastic spatula she bought from Dai ● and said to the demon king.
“Are you awake?”
“Um, gulp gulp!”
She drank water for a while before answering.
“Keuuu, um, that’s right. What are you doing?”
“Make breakfast. No, brunch.”
“Bacon eggs for brunch, not bad. It’s even better if you make it.”
Percussion!
“Hey?!”
Suddenly, the demon king hit my butt. While flipping the bacon with a spatula, I shouted in a panicked voice.
“No, they are cooking! In that case, don’t touch me!”
“Ha ha, sorry. By the way, would you like some water?”
“Yes, give it.”
In the sense of asking for the cup, I picked up the mug and held it out to the demon king. She also noticed my meaning and poured water into her glass.
“Thank you.”
“Hmm.”
While drinking water, the demon king gave a rough answer and disappeared behind her with a water bottle.
“Se-hee, do you have water too?”
“Thanks sister.”
The sound of Sehee drinking water followed, followed by bold words.
“Here you go.”
“Did you drink well?”
“Yes, I liked it better because it was an indirect kiss with my sister.”
“Haha, did you? Then how about a direct kiss?”
“Good.”
“Hey you?!”
I was cooking, so I looked at the frying pan and at the sister behind me. Fortunately, what I wanted or thought did not happen. The Demon King took the mineral water bottle from Se-hee and walked to the refrigerator.
Making eye contact with me, she asked with her mischievous smile.
“Hey, why?”
“Why would you do that!”
Naughty, really!
She protested and hit the Demon King with her foot. Upon opening her refrigerator, she smiled lightly and put her mineral water bottle back in place.
Haha, you’re kidding, you’re kidding. Don’t pout.”
“When did I get angry?”
“Does Jim look like he’s sulking?”
“Your eyes must be swollen.”
“Look? You just saw,”
“Hey!”
She tried to say something to the demon king who was dragging her into obscenities. But the crispy bacon didn’t leave me alone.
Instead of nagging her impatient mind, she hurriedly pointed to the cabinet under the sink.
“Yaya ya ya, get a plate out of here!”
“You do it.”
“I’m making you do it because I can’t do it! Hurry!”
“Chit.”
The demon king playfully clicked her tongue and bent her body. She took a plate out of the cabinet and put it on the sink. Not just one, but three.
“Here it is.”
“Uh, thank you.”
Her spatula raised 4 strips of bacon per plate. She hurriedly splashed a few drops of oil in the sink, but she was going to wipe it off anyway.
All that was left of the frying pan was the grease from the bacon. The demon king swallowed his mouth upon seeing this, but he had to fry eggs with this oil.
Eggs were counted in clear plastic packs. It didn’t match the number of people and was a bit vague, so I asked the two.
“Because there are four eggs? One for each person?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm…”
“Okay. I’ll give you two.”
“Haha! It’s you too! I know Jim’s heart so well!”
I said it half-jokingly with a meaningful moan, but the demon king laughed heartily and bumped into my shoulder.
After a brief laugh at the lovely shock, I took the egg out of the pack. Seeing that, the demon king was full of curiosity and said.
“You, you, you! Try that, that!”
“What is that?”
“Take an egg with one hand! You know what to do!”
“What, something like this?”
To satisfy her curiosity, I cracked an egg with only one hand at her request.
Widely! Lefty!
Amidst the sound of eggs being fried in oil, the demon king’s admiration continued.
“Whoa! After all, he’s the son of a pork soup restaurant!”
“I don’t think it has anything to do with rice soup.”
I learned this while cooking alone at home while watching the internet.
I was about to say this, but the demon king called Se-hee, who was lying on the bed.
“Sehee! Hey, come and see! Come and see what Jiheon is doing!”
“What is it?”
“Come quickly, quickly!”
“Why are you raising the plate, really?”
Even though I grumbled, I didn’t break another egg until Sehee came. Eventually, when she arrived, she showed the same thing as before in front of everyone.
Widely! Lefty!
Seeing the eggs cook white again, the demon king said to his younger brother.
“Look look look! Aren’t you curious?”
“Hmm, that’s right.”
However, Saehee’s voice was a bit gloomy.
“… Brother. No more?”
It wasn’t.
I was slightly happy.
When I showed them how to crack eggs with one hand until nothing was left, the two lost interest. The sisters who left my side made the bed they slept in and prepared breakfast.
After roughly examining the whitened whites and yolks, I asked.
“By the way, half-boiled eggs? Or mature?”
“I’m a half-sleeve.”
“The same goes for Jim!”
“Okay. Then half-sleep.”
To cook it half-cooked, I took the lid off the pot from the storage cabinet. I took a little tap water in the mug I used earlier and sprinkled it on the frying pan. Then, as the water and lard mixed, it made a loud noise.
Jiji Jijik!
Cover the pot with a lid to prevent further splashing of water and oil. Now, after some time, the steam would have made a well-cooked half-boiled fried egg.
Waiting for completion, he took chopsticks out of the cutlery box. A fork and knife would be better if possible, but I didn’t have those in my house, let alone in my own room.
“Sehee, here. Take the chopsticks.”
“Ah yes.”
“So-hee, can you get me some orange juice?”
“Okay. Oh, how about barley tea?”
“It’s not barley tea, it’s beer. Steal an egg?”
“Chet”
The Demon King clicked his tongue and returned his beer. While watching that, I put three mugs on the table and waited for Sehee to pour orange juice into the cups. At this rate, the eggs seemed to be cooked to some extent.
I went back to the frying pan and opened the lid. The white, which was also slightly transparent, was discolored to white.
Separate the whites with a spatula and place the eggs one by one on the plate. Of course, I didn’t forget that there were two Demon Lord Plates.
“Okay, that’s it!”
When I shouted this, both of them were sitting at the table. I carried a plate of bacon and eggs in front of them.
“Now, this is Sehee’s. And this is Sohee’s.”
“Thank you, brother.”
“Ho! You too! I didn’t break any yolks.”
“Aren’t you saying thank you?”
“Haha!”
When he reprimanded him as a joke, the demon king also raised a corner of his mouth, mixing a strange emotion with a playful face.
“You can express your gratitude with your body♥”
“By the way, sleep.”
“What.”
“Would you like more juice?”
“It’s okay. Hey, do you think Blinn will do it?”
“What is that.”
“Russian pancakes. My mom used to do it often.”
“Isn’t your mother Ukrainian?”
“I ate the same thing there. In the first place, it’s not that different from Ukraine and Russia. Like pancakes and blins.”
“But the taste is different. Blinn is a bit less sweet.”
“Okay? Then I’ll report it on the Internet later.”
“Rather than that, how about learning from your mother?”
“… Oh, the remote control was under the refrigerator.”
“Is that so?”
