Chapter 493 – Creepy.

It was the first time in my life that I had stepped on a foreign land, not in modern times, but in another world. And the feeling of coming back to the modern world and coming to a strange land,

“Oh, it’s hot… !”

It was very hot. It wasn’t just hot, it looked like it was steaming to death.

It was hot even when I was in Korea. But that was just the weather at the end of June, not the midsummer weather like it is now. No, rather than the heat, the humidity surrounding us tried to kill us.

“Big! It’s wet!”

The Demon King shouted as he flapped his sweat-soaked clothes.

“Unnies, when do you arrive at the accommodation? I want to take a shower.”

Se-hee, who was wiping the sweat on her cheek with the back of her hand, asked.

“I need to get on the train and go to Namba Station. Please follow me.”

It was the same for Mina as it was hot. As much as she was wearing a black suit, she directly absorbed the hot evening sunlight.

We moved to the train station, dragging our suitcases. As I passed the overpass connected to the airport building, I got curious and asked the devil who planned this trip.

“By the way, why did you ask to come to Osaka? Is the dog hot?”

“Hmm?”

The demon king, exhausted from the heat, looked back at me with a sweaty face. Then he smiled and spoke confidently.

“Originally, when I travel to Japan, Osaka is the default. I didn’t expect it to be this hot. Haha”

Her smile was weaker than usual. Even the Demon King seemed to get tired of this heat.

At this time, Se-hee heard this and grumbled.

“That’s why I told you to go to Hokkaido instead of coming to Osaka. It’s cool there, even in summer.”

“I’m sorry, Sehee. If you’re going to resent me, resent Ji-heon, who will be enlisting in the army in September.”

“Why is it because of me, this?”

“If you went to the army a little later, you would have come when it’s cool, not when it’s hot.”

“Sohee is right, Jiheon.”

Oh wait. I think I will fight this

To prepare for an unexpected situation, I approached the tired Se-hee.

“Sehee. Are you tired? Give me the bag.”

“Ah yes. Thank you. Brother. It’s hot, so I’ll kiss you later.”

“It’s okay.”

She shook her head and took her travel trunk she was pulling. And she said to the women a little ahead of us.

“It’s Sohee. Minah. Give me the bag Not dragging it, carrying it.”

The demon king welcomed my words and handed her the cross bag that was on her shoulder.

“Haha, are you the only one? Please keep Jim’s kiss.”

“No, Jiheon.”

However, unlike the other girls, Mina did not hand over the bag.

“I will take mine. Never mind Jiheon.”

“Why not? It’s okay, give me I won’t steal yours for giving it to you.”

“That’s why I’m saying no.”

“… Why? Would you give it to me if I told you I was going to steal your things?”

“Yes that’s right.”

He’s hot too, so he’s crazy.

Inwardly, she thought so, and she told Mina whatever she wanted.

“Okay. Give me the bag so I can steal yours.”

“Yes, I understand. Thank you, Jiheon.”

When I said stealing, Minah took off her backpack and handed it to me.

“The cash is on the right, Jiheon.”

“Are you really going to steal it?!”

Even though I said useless words.

Anyway, as we moved to the subway station, we could feel something cool. It seemed that it was because there was shade and air conditioning, so the dampness that had been turned off was removed to some extent.

In a slightly brighter atmosphere, I bought a ticket for the express train that goes fast to Namba Station. Then, without any thought of delay, I went straight down to the platform.

When we arrived at the platform, the train we were supposed to board had not yet arrived. I expected to be resting in an air-conditioned room, but I couldn’t help but be disappointed because I couldn’t see it.

“Um, you guys. What about that?”

At this time, the demon king led us. No, that sounds kind of like that, but she said, pointing to the vending machine with the ice cream on it.

“While you wait, buy one or two. How is it?”

“What is that?”

“I can’t see it. An ice cream vending machine.”

I chose to go to the vending machine instead of asking how I would know when I saw it for the first time.

We all moved in front of the vending machine. Upon arriving in front of it, the Demon King pretended to be quick and shouted in a cheerful voice.

“Then, hey! I’ll give you a chance to live first!”

“Uh. Me?”

“Right! It’s you! This is your first time living abroad, so choose carefully!”

“What are you careful about?”

Thanks to the always bright Demon King, laughter came out. I smiled like that and took out the envelope Mina had given me for the day saying it was her daily allowance.

“Oh, Jiheon.”

Mina said something, but my hand had already opened the envelope.

“Uh?”

Looking inside the envelope, her face frowned.

“Why do you?”

“Why, brother? Why?”

“…”

Seeing me like this, my sister asked me, but Mina didn’t say anything and just stood still. I raised my head and asked her.

“It’s Mina. Isn’t that too much for a day’s allowance?”

“No, Jiheon. It’s a decent amount of money to spend while traveling.”

“No, is it too many?”

Inside the envelope were 10 bills. Not just bills, but 10,000 yen bills. In Korean money, it was over 1 million won.

Is this why you told me not to pay it back? Even if it’s not for the rest of my life, I can’t pay it right now.

I took out just one piece from here, and put the envelope in the bag I received from Mina earlier. Seeing this, Minah opened her mouth as if saying no.

“Oh, Jiheon.”

“No.”

“Still,”

“No.”

“Jiheon.”

“I said no.”

Every time she opened her mouth, I interrupted her with a firm attitude. Demon King and Sehee, who saw this,

“I’ll make my luggage in mint chocolate flavor.”

“Sister, is that delicious?”

“It’s delicious. Would you like chocolate flavor?”

“Doesn’t it taste like dark chocolate? It is thick.”

I was choosing my own ice cream.

“Hey?!”

“Hmm? Why but?”

Beep! Rumble!

The demon king, who said he would make it right first, pressed the ice cream button while asking why. Then there was a rattling sound from underneath, and Sehee bent down to take it out instead.

“Sister, here you are.”

“Ah, thank you.”

“No thank you!”

“I’m not thankful that you took it out instead, what is it?”

“That would be true!”

I argued with the demon king who had chosen the ice cream on his own, saying he would let me pick it first.

“No, I heard you let me buy and eat first?”

“I did.”

“But why are you eating first?”

“It takes too long. There is a limit to the patience of burdens. Ha!”

Even while talking, the demon king shamelessly unwrapped the ice cream. Then, without waiting for the mint-colored contents to appear, he took a bite.

“Hmm! It’s delicious!”

“… Delicious?”

“Delicious, delicious! Would you like to have a bite too?”

“Oh, really?”

“Haha! It’s a lie! You should buy one too. I’ll buy it.”

The demon king’s bright smile and the words that he would buy it eased his anger. Like ice cream melting in her mouth.

“Hmm. Mmm, it’s delicious.”

“Jiheon. Which Jiheon would you like?”

Before I knew it, Sehee also pulled out and ate the ice cream, and Mina waited for me to choose first. I picked out anything I could see for Minah.

“I am this.”

“Do you mean strawberry flavor?”

“Uh, that.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Mina immediately chose the ice cream I pointed out, followed by a coffee flavor that seemed to be what she wanted to eat.

Beep! Rumble! Beep! Rumble!

A series of sounds were heard from under the vending machine. I pulled out the ice cream first and held it out before Mina bowed down.

“Now, here.”

“Thank you, Jiheon.”

We passed the time eating ice cream while the train was coming, huh?

I felt a strange feeling in my pants pocket, so I put my hand in it without realizing it. It contained the money he had taken out of the envelope earlier, and now it contained the envelope as well.

“… It’s Minah.”

“Yes, Jiheon. I didn’t do anything.”

“You didn’t do anything?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“Okay? I didn’t ask anything.”

“Jiheon.”

“I said no. But when did you put the envelope in?”

“I put it in when I took out the ice cream.”

“I didn’t really ask.”

“Are you sure you asked the question?”

“It was.”

Nodding my head, I tried to put the envelope in Mina’s bag like before.

“Uh?”

I did, but I didn’t see the bag. I wondered if I had dropped it, so I looked around. Then, before I knew it, I saw Minah with her bag on her back.

“When will the bag be worn again?”

“Jiheon was hot when he opened the ice cream wrapper.”

“No, I didn’t really ask.”

“Are you sure you asked the question?”

I felt a moment of deja vu. But it’s not déjà vu, I actually had a conversation like this a few seconds ago.

No, that’s not what’s important now.

I pulled out an envelope of money from my pants pocket and handed it to Mina.

“It’s Mina. Take this.”

“No, Jiheon. That’s Jiheon’s daily allowance.”

“How do you spend this day? The four of us can use it. Come on, take it.”

“It’s okay, Jiheon. Never mind.”

“How can you not care?”

When Mina and I were bickering over money, the devil who was eating ice cream tried to mediate the fight.

“You-all! Come on a trip and don’t fight over things like that! If you’re going to fight like that, give the money to Jim!”

“No.”

“I don’t like it, Sohee.”

“What?!”

Even though it was an obvious answer, the demon king widened his eyes in amazement. However, having regained her composure, she tried to take her money with a flirtation this time.

“Ai-ying♥ Mina-ang♥ Don Joo-ge-eng ♥ Ji-heon says she won’t accept it, Naa-ang♥”

“Don’t make any noise, stupid. It’s creepy.”

“Goose bumps, you! Goosebumps! I did it despite my shame!”

“Because I was more ashamed of seeing you?”

After hearing my words, the Demon King tried to say something to me as well. At this time, the navy blue train we were supposed to ride entered the platform.

Saehee, who was watching us while eating ice cream, looked at the incoming train and said,

“First of all, I eat all the ice cream. You can’t spill it inside.”

At that, we stopped arguing and hurriedly ate the ice cream.
