Chapter 106 – Chapter 13 – How Dads Handle Adolescent Boys

* Chapter 13 – How a father handles an adolescent boy (4)

That evening, Baek Seol-gi came to me out of the blue and told me a lot.

Originally, it was time to sleep, but there would be no redness. It was around the time I was playing with the sister-in-law with the game console I had recently bought.

In such a situation, calling me a brother-in-law, confessing my relationship with Geum-ryun, and talking about who the priestess was, I wondered if Hongdu-kkae was the word used at night.

However, thanks to that, there were things that made sense.

Why did the priestess treat me so favorably and all the reasons why her red-mae could rely on her priestess?

“I really thought I wouldn’t be able to take care of my mother-in-law for the rest of my life, but why did they meet me in a place like this? Somehow, when Geum-ryun and Si-beol-ryeon were lost, they told me to get out of the wrong village, but they said it was my hometown. There is no other fucking relationship like this. Really.”

“Sorry for cheating on you, brother-in-law.”

“So how old are you?”

“Two years older than Geum-ryun. Her dialect is acting.”

“How could there be a part like a historical drama? She should have foreseen that, when the noblewoman seems needlessly young, she can make a person old on the contrary… Write! Shouldn’t she have read a lot of fantasy when she was young!”

“Even if you knew, you wouldn’t have known.”

“…That’s also true. How could someone like you be seen as a girl of Geum-ryun’s age?”

“That’s a very sad word. I’m still a girl at heart.”

She continued the story as she left the sister-in-law at her house and drove her vehicle to the correctional center. From what she hears, it seems like a very strange situation right now, with Shin-nyeo being imprisoned due to a family quarrel and Hong-mae following. At first, her heart sank when she heard that Hongmae was imprisoned, but when she heard it, she heard that it was a comfortable environment with a laptop on the floor, and she really thought about ‘what is a prison?’.

“Can’t the priestess come out of there?”

“If you set your mind to it, you can come out. I scolded you for putting the village ahead of your relatives. They say that they are coordinating their opinions while making noise, so they were all exposed at this point, wondering if they could come out tomorrow.”

“This town had quite a desolate feeling, but the atmosphere inside is warm.”

“Where do you send your ancestors to prison?”

“It’s funny to think that it’s some kind of annual event that the other party is convinced.”

“…Can you see it that way?”

Then, as she continued to listen, she heard of the plan that Hongmae and the priestess were about to commit. I don’t know who came up with it, but it was really horrifying that he was trying to make all the villagers himself. She acted as if it was okay even if the surprise was discovered, and then said that she was planning something like this.

“What about gold lotus?”

“Hongmae’s personality was fully injected for research. Her body remains and Geumryun acts like herself, but since Hongmae was inside her, she is practically dead.”

“How could that crazy bitch have gone so easily?”

“…It may be so, but isn’t Hongmae work a priority right now?”

“Listen, he can be scolded. Is it because I was too mean? Is it because I raised him? I tried to do something endlessly, so I have to regret it at least once. Actually, I’m thinking of stopping the car like this and taking him away in a few days, but I don’t know what you think. Let’s ask.”

“Actually, this kind of incident happens quite often in our village, so I don’t think it’s a big deal. My mother may have a grudge over this incident and make me older, but it’s a cheap price for protecting the villagers… Anyway, Hongmae and my mother Especially since he’s a close child, I hope you take good care of him and don’t get close to him. That’s why he’s being exposed to his brother-in-law and taken to prison.”

“Because I’m a father, look at me and scold me.”

“The care of a wife should be her husband’s.”

“You’re not married yet!”

“But aren’t you going to do it? Then it’s the same thing.”

“You speak very well when you’re not in historical drama mode, old man.”

“There are a lot of naughty people in the village, so I had to look dignified on the outside, so I couldn’t help it.”

“You’re so old, don’t you resent me?”

“Even though I blame my mother, I never felt particularly annoyed at the thought that she would rejuvenate me when I felt better. Today, I was just annoyed that I had confessed my feelings for the first time in a long time, and my mother would know that. In the end, when there is a confrontation, I take up the arms, and whenever that happens, we put a curse on it and set it free. It’s our repertoire, so it’s like a kind of family event, as my mother-in-law said.”

“It’s a very funny family that curses and frees them for being lazy.”

“Since you are now one of our family members, you should take it kindly.”

“When I think about that, I become the bastard who ate my nephew. Since Hwa-hyang had an affair with him… I can’t help but fuck my daughter and nephew…”

“If you think about Hwa-hyang, it’s about to happen now. Oh, come to think of it, isn’t that the boy you saw last time?”

“Baek Seong-woong?”

“Originally, she was in a position to receive preferential treatment, but she was pushed out a little more because her brother-in-law, who was easy to control and had a strong sex drive, appeared. If you do, you will look sick later.”

“It’s thoroughly nepotism.”

“The proof is Miss Hyeyoung.”

“Looking at the way he speaks, he must have died?”

“He’s dead. His personality has already been converted into a red-mae, so even if we meet him, we won’t be able to communicate.”

“…You really are a pitiful woman.”

He was the first person to treat me friendly when I came to the village, but thinking about it like this makes me feel very sad. Even if I hadn’t been involved in a place like this, I would have been living in a more sunny place, but how did I spend my life like that?

“Some people laugh at this situation, some die, life is so…”

But I wasn’t so sad that I burst into tears, so I thought I was really dry. If she had been more realistic, she would have been able to adapt to this place a little better, but all I feel is regret. She was already dead, so even thinking this way would be too late. In the end, her mourning for Mr. Hye-young didn’t even last 5 minutes. After getting out of the car and breathing in the night air, I was worried about how to scold and make fun of my foolish daughter who was imprisoned.

“With the chief… Mr. Sangmun…?”

“I brought them.”

“Yeah…”

“Did something happen when I left?”

“The people who put me to sleep are all getting up and making a fuss about the priestess. Since it’s normal, they said yes, so everyone calmed down, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have followers…”

“It’s as usual, so tell the boss over the radio that he’s taking his brother-in-law. Go to the dungeon and show him the face of Hongmae, and he’ll go back, so don’t worry.”

Even though it was early in the morning, the correctional center moved more actively than in the morning and expressed today’s incident through telegraphs. Today, unlike usual, people were walking around and blocking entry from the outer site rather than the inner site of the correctional center, but somehow the atmosphere was strange. Baek Seol-gi smiled, saying that he would be able to see the face of Hong-mae soon, but the woman he was dealing with did not move with her face turned blue, so the air suddenly seemed tense.

“…”

“What are you doing? Even if you just watch and go. Why don’t you open the door?”

“That’s… Now it’s a little…”

“Why are you doing this again? Who told you not to come in?”

“It’s not like that, but if I go in now, the story will surely get complicated… I wonder if you can come at least tomorrow… In particular, Sangmun-nim will be in trouble if he comes in…”

“Even if I explained everything.”

“That’s not it…”

“That’s really frustrating! Give it to me!”

“Oh.”

Snow White snatched the amulet from the forehead of the woman in front of him and shouted at it.

“I’m Baekseolgi! I’m the daughter of a priestess, and I’m an old woman who always wears a gun! I don’t know what’s going on inside, but open the door!”

-Did it have a communication function?

“Ugh.”

With the muttering of the woman whose amulet had been taken away, the door rattled open. You really had a communication function. I thought it was something like a pseudo-religion, so I thought it was worn on my forehead in a religious sense, but I was very surprised.

“…It’s difficult.”

“Yeah.”

The women guarding the door from the inside kept repeating that they were in trouble for what the hell was going on. With such an attitude, Snow White and I also noticed each other and felt that something was wrong. Like me, Snow White’s footsteps became particularly fast, and the door to the inner lot was shouted and forced open. What the hell was going on?

“What is this?”

“Ah, big sister!”

“Sister, well, inside now!”

“Oh, oh my!”

“Hick!”

Seeing Snow White, she looked like an older sister, but she wasn’t really her younger sister, and everyone thought they were related, so she stood back, but her gaze was focused this way. Anxiety was doubled by the hissing attitude as if to crack down on his mouth. It’s a shame that I can’t go down because the entrance is blocked, but suddenly a baby with a familiar face pops out of there and runs away.

“That’s that damn bastard! Oh hey, it’s hot!”

“That’s right, this wouldn’t have happened if my sister hadn’t beaten the priestess!”

“Everyone agreed that changing the villager’s personality is a big problem, so why are they suddenly saying shit?”

“Anyway, that idiot, it’s a mistake I couldn’t manage!”

“I shouldn’t have been attracted to the story that idiot brought…”

“…Could Baek Sung-woong be that bastard?”

“Anyway, we don’t know! We don’t know anything!”

“Her…”

My heart ached.

I can vividly see the face of that guy who was shocked to see me as he ran away.

Anyone can see there is a problem.

At least, the heart that had been hurting that things had happened in a direction that everyone here didn’t want settled down.

“What happened to Hongmae?”

“…That.”

“Fuck! Don’t be foolish and get out of the way!”

“Mr. Sangmun!”

I didn’t answer, but I guessed what was going on inside with that reaction.

Even if it’s expected, it’s the worst prediction.

“Billion! Uhhh! Evil!!! Fuck!!!”

“Oh, man! You’re old enough, why are you in such a hurry!”

I push the woman guarding the entrance and go down the stairs, and Snow White follows behind me, calling my name, but I have no time to pay attention to that. On the way down to the basement, it was difficult to see, so I sprained my leg and fell forward, but it was more red than that. It was the moment when I lifted my shattered forehead and crawled on the floor, grabbed my cell phone that had fallen on the floor, and turned it on saying it was fine.

“…Cee-Bee!!”

I could see the goo on the floor sticking to my palm.

It was bright red and smelled like iron.

What I saw when I was young.

“No, say no… Please…”

As I crawled on the floor, I held out my phone and pointed it in front of my nose.

Blood was pouring from the open private room that someone, probably that bastard, had left open.

I tried to think as positively as possible, ‘Could it belong to a priestess?’, But the moment I crawled in and turned on the light on my cell phone in the private room, my head started spinning.

“────.”

Opponent does not speak.

Even though I came, I didn’t even look this way.

Did you get mad at me for coming late?

No, it’s not.

As they said, she was lying comfortably in a corner of the private room that had been neatly made, and she was dripping with water that smelled like iron, so there was no way she could speak.

“That, that bastard, fuck… Bastard…!!”

The jewels I’ve been cultivating all my life saving sleep have been neatly shattered.

In a way that will never come back.

Bitterly.

The worst reality that could never happen came to me.
