Chapter 165 – [Raccoon Man Beginning]

It was dark, but I went inside by relying on dim light. A cold wind blew, and water like a babbling brook was flowing in the ditch next to it.

Hey, here’s the vibe. So it was good to come.

“Well, it feels good.”

“I came into the cave, why are you healthy? Wouldn’t it be better to get some sunlight?”

“The radon and cadmium levels are higher than expected…”

“No, heavy metal there?!”

“But it’s not to the extent that it’s affecting your health right now. If you care about that, you’d rather live in a sterilized capsule. Why are you wandering around outside?”

“But”

“At least once, it doesn’t affect adults. Even if it’s a child… Hmm.”

Shion is an alien who regards radioactivity as a vitamin level. Heavy metals are nothing but nutrients.

I wouldn’t know if I had come with another normal person. Ye-jin is also a force user, so coming in to watch for a while is not a big problem.

But little kids don’t know. Of course, I wouldn’t be rushed to the hospital right away after watching it for an hour or two.

“Hey, it’s nice that the lights are dark here. You won’t be able to see the face of the person right in front of you, right?”

“I can’t even see Mrs. Zion’s beauty”

“It’s better than I thought, because I don’t think anyone will cheat. I like it.”

“Didn’t you like it because of heavy metal?”

If that’s the case, I’d like it because of the wine or salted fish.

There are many families and couples who come here in the first place, and the lighting is dim, making it difficult to see their faces. Hey, you’ve decided on a date course.

Anyway, I walked slowly inside. The sound of running water can be heard nearby.

“Oh, is this the main hall?”

“The viewing course is this way.”

A bright light welcomes us. We were greeted by a glittering aisle with light decorations on the walls, which were nothing special and could only be used for Christmas decorations.

Even though it was nothing special, it was tasteful to walk. Is it because the lights are dim here?

“It looks like there’s a piece of art on display here.”

“It’s worth seeing”

“There are several Van Gogh works in Horizon…”

“No, that’s that and this isn’t this? And it’s because I enjoyed watching Doctor Who.”

“What about the female doctor?”

“The Doctor has never been a woman before.”

Are you thinking of denying reality? No, in this world, Shion may have used a hand, but this time the Doctor is not a woman. Anyway Geronimo!!!!

“There’s also a fish here. Uh…… It’s a fish donated to pray for the prosperity of the cave. They say it’s a golden dragon.”

“It will be delicious if you bake it.”

“Hey, that stuff smells so fishy, ​​so you have to season it properly and bake it.

“Aren’t the two of you too lacking in romance?!”

“Originally, we are like this”

“If we had to pick three of our desires, they would be erotic, fangirling, and eating.

“Last time, I said that piranhas would be delicious too.”

“I baked it before, but you didn’t eat it.”

After following the footsteps of the people, we were greeted by a slightly larger plaza-like space. As if it had already started, the light from a projector like a laser pointer was projecting images onto the walls of the cave.

I watched it from the middle, but it didn’t bother me much because it felt like a dream. I wanted something when the meteorite came out in the middle because there was no connection.

The running time was about 10 minutes, but the experience time seemed longer than that. Shion also nodded, apparently enjoying it.

“I enjoyed it just like that. It’s not as good as VR, but it was interesting because it mixed with the environment of the cave.”

“That’s it”

And headed to the next course. This time it was Shion’s favorite animal… No, it was the fish section.

It’s not strange. It is just a place where various fish are displayed like an aquarium. It wasn’t too big, so it was a lot smaller than the Jamsil Aquarium I went to last time, but Xion seemed satisfied.

“Here’s a piranha”

“Tasty”

“No?! Isn’t it a long way from the conversation we had earlier?!”

“It’s really delicious. Carnivores are said to have a strong smell, but piranhas are surprisingly delicious.”

“…….Really?”

“Really. Having eaten it, I’ll vouch for it.”

Bear Grylls said before that he ate piranha and said so… I have to think of that man as being British. The guy Will I saw last time in England is a guy who eats mint chocolate! Can you believe the taste of British bastards!

Nevertheless, saying that it was so-so for the British palate means that it is delicious if cooked properly. In the Amazon region, it is a fish that is quite tasty enough to eat piranha.

In addition, I came out to see small tropical fish or such fish. Seeing that it was an animal, no, it was a fish, but it was not a human, Shion was also satisfied.

The next course was the Wall of Hope course. The walls are full of wishes engraved on small golden plates.

Is it like putting a padlock on a barbed wire? I was a little worried because it was a facility where you pay about 5,000 won for each ticket, not a ticket.

“It’s not that the money is wasted, but I don’t really like things like this…”

“It’s better to ask a god you know to grant you a wish than rely on something like this.”

“Isn’t it? If it’s suitable, I’ll take it because I have the faith of a transcendentalist. If it’s like me, it’ll be about winning first place in the lottery.”

“Really?!”

“Yes, really. Originally, the faith of transcendentalists is far greater than that of hundreds of millions of human beings.”

God is a being that receives human faith, but on the contrary, if a single human being can exert power over tens of thousands or hundreds of millions of people, that faith is beyond imagination. It is said that it is possible to maintain its existence if it accepts only one transcendentalist as a believer without needing any gods or other gods, so it wields power.

The God Ruri-Ruri we met last time received dimensional faith from the beginning, so even so, in the case of Susanoo-san, since he receives the faith of his friend Night Lord, let alone maintaining his existence, he is also capable of divinity as a one-step evolved God of Destruction. If it’s a decent god, I’ll light a fire to make a god of one transcendent rather than a unit of civilization.

“Besides, this is not pure gold.”

“Ah, really. If you want to make a plate this size out of pure gold, you can’t afford to spend 5,000 won.”

“But it’s not like I don’t have money, and I have my own feelings. I think at least one is fine.”

Shion, not me, took the money out of the wallet. She handed 5000 won to the staff at the counter and was handed a golden plate.

We handed the plate to Yejin. It’s because we don’t have any particular wish to write.

“I-can I at least?”

“Yejin, write whatever you want”

“……Then will you really be my enemy?”

While Ye-jin pondered, she wrote ‘Make me happy’ on the golden board. It’s extremely simple, but it’s just as difficult. Happiness is a relative matter.

“Well, I chose something quite difficult. Aren’t you happy now?”

“Ah! Then I should have added a word like that in the future. What can I do, I can’t erase it.”

“It’s better to just bet. It’s not a bad wish anyway.”

The two hung the plate on the highest wall. It wasn’t hard to hang it because it had a string attached, but the two smiled happily when they saw the board hanging.

Wishes don’t mean anything. Even so, there is a god that arises from the place of prayer. Even if it is doubtful that there will be gods in modern society.

The two of them with childlike innocence left them alone for a moment and waited. Women’s chatter is longer than expected.

The next course was called the Golden Palace. It is blatant to see a statue painted in gold from the entrance.

“It’s not even real gold”

“Hey, it would cost tens of thousands of dollars to paint a statue of this size in gold.”

“Please don’t destroy my innocence, you two!”

“Open your eyes to reality. If you need gold, I’ll buy it. In gold bars worth hundreds of millions of won per piece…!”

“It’s good! It’s good, but I can’t buy my innocence with money?!”

“At that time, let’s think about not having enough money.”

There was a sound of flowing water called Golden Falls further back. It seems to be a waterfall caused by the water flowing inside the cave, so it is not directly visible, but you can see the water falling a little away.

Apparently, the water seen at the entrance gathers as flowing water in this place.

“It’s the stairs from here. Would you mind wearing high heels?”

“It’s okay. No problem.”

Until now, the aisles were straight and at most sloped, but from now on they are stairs. I asked because I was worried about Shion wearing high heels, and the answer was that it was okay.

It comes down better than expected. Ugh, even when I was a girl, I didn’t like high heels, so I only wore sneakers or shoes. How can I wear them? She honestly is astounded by her desire for women’s fashion.

Even though I understand women’s hearts, considering the weight of my soul, the male side is higher. Women are also quite a lot, but my first round of reincarnation is as simple as being a man.

…..Yes? But I look down and see what is that? It looks like a fucking big man, but is it some kind of Cromagnoin model?

“Here is……?”

“It’s a horror corner”

“Gyaaaaa!!!”

“I won’t go in, so calm down”

“…..Is that true?”

“I want to go in.”

“Kyaaaaagh?!”

The place decorated on one side was a course where you had to pay separately to enter. I tried to go in, but Zion vehemently refused, so I couldn’t.

I don’t know, but Yejin, you should come and play with your boyfriend later. I can rightfully hug you.

“What are you doing when you know it’s fake?”

“Sometimes, there are many times when the real thing comes mixed in.”

“……I didn’t know that.”

I also feel like my spine is getting a bit chilly.

I don’t know because I can only recognize ghosts if I don’t wake up. At least, it feels like the chill is coming up.

I don’t know here, but if Japan is a place like a shuddering labyrinth, there is a strong possibility that Zion will explode in a supernova when a ghost comes out. Hmm….. Let’s not take my wife as if it’s like a horror experience if possible. The same goes for the courage test.

Next was the fantasy exhibition hall. After passing the horror hall and climbing the stairs, the first thing that greeted me was the figure of a huge dragon.

“It’s not even a dragon, it’s a dragon. It doesn’t feel like a fantasy.”

“It’s also a fantasy species. Also, a phantom who knows things like dragons catches her and sometimes sends her dragon hearts to take care of herself. How is it? Compared to Yeouiju, you’re better.”

“I’ve seen Yeouiju too, so it’s okay.”

“What are you two talking about?!”

“But there’s also Gollum down there.”

“It’s not even Smaug, it’s just a dragon, but it’s strange that Gollum exists. No matter how much you ignore the historical evidence, even if you say Smaug, why is there a Gollum all of a sudden? Even if you say that dragon is Smaug, it’s a problem. It’s to the point where I want to tackle it.”

“Umm, it’s best not to touch Tolkynists.”

The huge dragon sculpture was well made and worth seeing. And in front of it, the exhibition items of the fantasy exhibition hall were full.

Besides paintings, there are also things like ray guns. There was something like Gandalf’s staff, and even Shion nodded.

“Even if these guys are set up for the movie version, this has been well documented.”

“If you’re going to question the historical evidence, wouldn’t it be better not to look at the historical works?”

“That’s different from this”

“Humter Resting”

And next to him was the Hulk.

No, why the Hulk?! Why?! Hulk?!

I didn’t know well at first because of the dark lighting, but the green skin and huge size were right for Hulk. Come to think of it, it seems that this figure was what I saw while descending the stairs earlier.

It was a real size Hulk with a 1:1 ratio, much larger than Shion’s Hulkbuster figure at home. It seems like he must have had a hard time getting here. Let’s pay our respects to the delivery driver.

“Oh, this was the Hulk”

“Then what do you know?”

“I thought it was a cave or something like a Cro-Magnon.”

“Cro-Magnons?!”

“Cro-Magnons lol”

“No. Shion, if you laugh like that, I feel a little bad. Insert the first form.”

If you are a transcendental person who can use your own will to some extent, it is not strange to use your super adult form. It’s because it’s a problem with cognition anyway. Sometimes I even use emoticons.

Do you have a fantasy exhibition hall? Still, it’s worth seeing. Even if we display figurines on the second floor, there are not infinite seats, so most of them only buy small ones or Nendoroids. Rather, it is less bulky.

I climbed the stairs again as much as I came down. There was a drinking fountain in the middle, so I drank water to replenish my hydration. It is not a separate water supply, but drinking water that could be drunk even during the gold dig days. There were no problems with the water other than the slightly odd taste.

“Mmmm, this rich heavy metal flavor”

“Really?! No, really?!”

“I’m kidding. It’s drinkable water.”

“Your liver almost fell off, didn’t you?!”

To be honest, when you say that, I get a little anxious. No, i’m scared I don’t have a problem eating it, but Yejin is the problem.

Anyway, I followed the passage, and this time, a course written about the history of this cave came out. It is said that they dug something like gold, and after being plundered during the Japanese colonial period and abandoned, they stored things like salted fish, then bought a cave in Gwangmyeong-si and decorated it as it is now.

“Ah, the Barbie doll house! Here it is!”

“Look around slowly. Even my wife seems interested.”

“Isn’t a figure a doll in a way?”

“That’s kind of weird.”

Barbie dolls are not ornamental.

Here, the history of Barbie dolls and other exhibits were lined up. But to be honest, I feel a little bit scared about something like a Barbie doll… Honestly, it looks creepy. If you name the doll Annabelle or Chucky, it looks like it will be in big trouble.

Look at those eyes! Those are the eyes of a killer!!!

However, as if they weren’t bothered by the sight of women, Shion and Yejin were chatting while looking at the dolls on display in the glass case. Well, the girls chatter is really long.

“The exhibition hall is smaller than I thought, so there’s not much to see”

“I have nothing to say about the topic that has been here for 30 minutes.”

“Next…Ah! It’s the storage for wine and salted fish.”

“Aaaaa!!!”

If it’s made in a place like this, the quality is a little questionable, but where to eat it! Tasting! Tasting! In particular, salted seafood is made in its own way, even if the civilization is different! I don’t know soybean paste or soy sauce, but there must be at least one salted fish!

“Huh? But the salted fish store is closed.”

“My innocence!!!”

“Where is the innocence left of you?”

“You’re destroying my expectations. Then I’ll destroy this cave too!!!”

“Stop it?!”

No, I’m kidding. Joke.

What are you taking so seriously?
