Chapter 40 – Yaya, Do It Honey, You Say You Can Do It!

-Jiheon-ah. We have a serious question. So I want you to talk seriously too.

“Uh, yes.”

-Jiheon-ah, what do you think of Sohee?

The moment I heard that question, my mind went blank. I looked to her mother for help, but she was holding a Japanese sword hanging over the TV.

Her mother, whom she thought would help for a moment, looked just as serious as her father.

“Mr. Jiheon. You can dodge or counterattack. By the way, don’t get hurt. OK?”

It was her husband who reacted first to the shocking statement. He asked in a puzzled voice if he too had heard her mother speak.

-Jiheon, Jiheon-ah. Do you know what her wife is doing now?

“No, that.”

-Will you show me?

At that, I picked up the tablet and showed her mother pulling a knife from her scabbard. The effect was great.
– Oh! Honey what are you doing!

My father was also taken aback, as if we hadn’t discussed anything.

-Why are you carrying a knife! Honey!

“It’s okay, it will be over soon.”

The mother smiled and replied. She didn’t look the slightest bit different from the smile she’d seen when she first met her, but somehow it felt creepy.

– What’s over soon! It’s dangerous, so put a knife!

“Aren’t you curious?”

She clutched the handle of her sword with both of her hands, deftly poised and ready to wield at any moment.

“Can Jiheon really protect our Sohee?”

-So you’re trying to figure it out now! Let’s talk, let’s talk! Huh?

“Fists are closer than words, Joe!”

Right after she finished speaking, she raised her sword as if to cut it at any moment and approached at a rapid pace. Trying to avoid her, I climbed onto the back of her couch and rolled down behind her.

“Don’t dodge!”

My mother hurriedly returned to her couch and pointed her sword at me, who hadn’t woken up yet. The blade of the sword she held in her hand shimmered silver in the reflection of the fluorescent light.

I unknowingly held out the tablet I was on a video call with. But the father on the screen shouted.

-Ugh! Jiheon, don’t do that! It’s expensive!

Only then did I find the bite-sized apple mark on the back of the tablet. But that’s it, and my life was in danger, so there was no change in my posture.

“Sorry!”

– Not sorry! I’m going to cherish this!

The thin plastic plate pushed out as hard as it could, as if it were some form of upper protection magic. However, contrary to expectations, the blade did not fly. Looking at her with her quivering eyes, I saw her mother furrowing her brow with her hardened face.

“… Ugh.”

Then, suddenly, like a defeated warrior, he knelt down on one knee on the carpeted floor.
Squeak

– My carpet!

Leaving behind my father’s screaming words, I wondered why my mother was acting like that. Could it be that the potential power of a former warrior has been awakened by the crisis?

She grimaced and clutched her unstruck stomach. Then she murmured a single word.

“My stomach… !”

I understand why you knelt down to me. I swung the knife shortly after eating, but I couldn’t help but feel a pain in my stomach.

Billion, but I’m hungry too!

I, who ate 4 servings of rice, also felt sick to my stomach. Enduring the pain as if stabbed by a knife, I set the tablet down on the floor. Then, as if crawling on all fours, he approached her mother and took her sword.

“Ji, Jiheon!”

Ignoring the slight resistance, I raised my sword and stood up slowly. But I couldn’t move anymore, so all I could do was stand still.

But I think someone is watching…

I turned my head to the gaze I felt behind me. At the entrance to the kitchen, I saw Sehee standing with a fruit tray with an expressionless expression on her face.

Se-hee looked at her mother, who was kneeling on the floor. Right after that, she raised her gaze and met her eyes with me holding the knife beside him.

Knowing how this situation would look, I hurriedly called Sehee.

“Se-hee! Not that!”

“… “

She went into the kitchen without saying a word, carrying a tray of fruit. She and she soon showed up with a demon lord wearing dripping rubber gloves.

“Why? What’s the matter, huh?”

Appearing with a puzzled expression, she hardened her face upon discovering this situation. And she made eye contact with me and asked only with a look on her face.

Did you do it

No.

Really?

Because it’s not

Ascertaining her truth from me, she looked at her mother with her pitiful eyes.

“Mother, what have you done?”

Called, she turned her head and looked at the demon king. Pale with her pain, the mother tried to speak even as she frowned.

“Uh? That is… “

“You can’t talk. You’re going to run with a knife anyway, right? And Jiheon.”

“Huh?”

“It’s dangerous, so could you put the knife in?”

He had the body of a child, but the mind of an adult. I walked up to her TV, took her scabbard, and inserted her sword as she instructed.

When I hung it on top of the TV and looked around, I saw my mother sitting on the sofa, supported by Sehee. The demon king had already disappeared into the kitchen, and Se-hee picked up the tablet on the other side of the sofa and returned and set it on the table. Then, she immediately followed her sister into the kitchen.

The pain seemed to have subsided a lot during that time, but the mother said with a pale face.

“Jiheon, I’m sorry. This is what the book says… “

What kind of book did you read?

I sat down next to her without asking her on purpose. Then her father, who seemed to have aged in the intervening years, spoke through the screen.

– I’m sorry. Because her wife loves surprises so much. She really didn’t mean to hurt me. Yes? Honey?

“Yes… “

Mother answered helplessly.

Contrary to her father’s disrespectful attitude, I wasn’t too upset that she tried to run over me. As I wondered about this, I remembered what the demon king usually did. It must have been because he was so accustomed to bizarre behavior.

“No, it’s okay. I wasn’t even hurt anyway.”

“Anyway, I’m sorry. I’m a guest… “

Your mother swung it. But she didn’t say anything like this and changed the subject of conversation.

“Because it’s okay. But what were you trying to talk about?”

Then, the demon king’s parents made a serious face. The two looked at each other through the screen for a while, and then the father opened his mouth.

-That’s right, Jiheon-ah. Do you know what kind of child Sohee is?

After hearing that, I thought about what the demon king had received for talking about his previous life. As a result, her family, including the demon king, suffered.

Her face hardened at the thought of such a thing, her mother said.

“I see you know. Did Sohee tell you?”

“Yes.”

– It seems that the two of you have become very close. If you see a story like that.

Father smiled benevolently.

-You know, Sohee didn’t have many friends. No, there wasn’t even one But suddenly, the existence of you appeared to Sohee.

“At first I was surprised, but also delighted. Even though our Sohee is a bright kid, I knew she was pretending to be like that on purpose.”

– I didn’t know it was because of the man, but I mean! Ahahahaha!

At that, the two of them started laughing. However, unlike them, I rather preferred to die. Even for a moment, I noticed how much they valued their family. But since I slept with her in the same room as her (even if nothing happened), I understood if she didn’t like me.

“I-I’m sorry.”

At my apology, the father on the screen waved his hand.

-No, that’s fine. Because we are mistaken

“Besides, I don’t want to say things about my daughter’s boyfriend.”

“Yes? Boyfriend?”

As soon as I heard that word, my face heated up. I felt I had to let her know that I was not in a romantic relationship with her.

“Hey, I’m not like that with Sohee…”

In response to my answer, my mother showed a mischievous smile similar to that of the demon king.

“Yes? So what are you doing?”

“My friend, it’s a sign.”

“A friend? Isn’t Sohee a year older and a senior? What is it like to call a senior by his first name? Husband?”

-That’s only dating, well.

“Yes? Are there only lovers? Besides, I heard that the two of them are very friendly.”

The two looked at me with a happy expression. I turned my head and said, not seeing them.

“If you heard about it from Sohee, no, you would know! We are just friends!”

“Oh is that it?”

-The two of you had a lot of fun. But isn’t that it? Sohee hadn’t smiled so brightly until recently.
The words that the demon king couldn’t smile brightly sounded unfamiliar. From what I’ve seen so far, she always smiles confidently and shows a lively appearance.

Seeing me embarrassed, my mother explained with a soft expression.

“Of course, it wasn’t that I didn’t laugh at all. But there were many times when it looked like he was smiling on purpose.”

-That’s right. Sometimes I even thought of acting. But like I said before, it’s been a while since I’ve seen Sohee smile so brightly.

“Thank you. For letting me see Sohee like that.”

-Thank you so much. Thanks to you, our family has become a little happier.

Having said that, the two suddenly bowed their heads and thanked me. Surprised by the behavior of the two, I raised my head and waved my hand while talking gibberish.

“Oh, don’t do that! Me too, I received a lot! They even paid for hospitalization and treatment! I also had a delicious dinner today! Besides, thanks to Sohee, I can laugh a lot these days!”

“Hmm?”

-Uh?

At my last words, the two of them raised their heads. They didn’t look at me, they looked at each other and exchanged meaningful glances. The mother said with her mouth without making a sound.

Right?

That’s right.

Likewise, my father, who had been speaking only with his mouth, asked me again.

-Jiheon-ah. I asked you earlier, what do you think of Sohee?

“Yes?”

“It literally means. What does Sohee mean to Jiheon?”

At this time, I forgot to refute and thought about the Demon King. She never laughed when she was with her, even though it was hard. Sometimes, when I see him smiling, my heart beats, but when I hear him vomit from a hangover in the morning, all of his affection is gone.

The two muttered as they looked at me in agony.

“I am still a child.”

-That’s right, he’s still a kid.

“Yes? What are you talking about?”

“Nothing?”

My mother put on a meaningful expression, and my father looked at me happily. He said with a smile.

-Anyway, take good care of our Sohee. This is what I say as a friend’s father.

It seemed that they finally acknowledged me and the demon king as friends. But that thought was easily shattered by her mother’s words.

“Know this, though.”

“What is it?”

“It is not always the law that there is only burning love between lovers. There are lovers who are as comfortable as friends.”

“What is that… ?

– It means you can call me yaya, but darling!

“Yes?”

“Just joke! Oh ho ho ho!”

Even though I heard it was a joke, my head was hot. Meanwhile, her mother shouted at her kitchen.

“Guys! Stop listening and come out and eat some fruit?”

As soon as the words were finished, Mawang and Se-hee came out of the kitchen. Se-hee was expressionless holding a fruit tray like we saw earlier, but the demon king walked away without saying a word with a blushing face.

Se-hee walked quickly and put the fruit tray down on the table in front of the sofa. It didn’t stop there, but I took a place between me and my mother.

“Oh my goodness? What is going on with Se-hee, who is always cold?”

Ignoring her mother’s heartwarming response, Sehee looked at me with an expressionless face.

“Brother.”

“Huh?”

“It is narrow. Go to the side.”

“Uh, yes.”

I moved my butt to the side by an inch.

“More from there.”

“More?”

Sehee didn’t stop asking until I was driven to the armrest of the sofa. She occupied a seat wider than mine, and spoke to the demon king, who stood with her face bright red.

“Sister, I left the seat empty. Sit.”

However, the demon king chose to sit on the armrest with me rather than an empty seat. When Se-hee stared at him without saying a word, she averted his eyes and stammered at her words.

“I-I’m more comfortable here!”

“… “

This time he glared at me and pressed me. Like you’re jealous of me

On the other hand, even after seeing this scene, their parents seemed to be enjoying themselves with eye smiles.

“It looks good. Honey.”

-I know. I feel like we’re already family.

“… “

At this time, Sehee, who heard the words, muttered softly. It was so small that only me sitting next to it could hear it. What she said was this.

You can’t leave it like that. Never.
