Chapter 49 – [What Is Life, Just Live It the Way You Live It]
The car that climbed the mountain road was a normal passenger car. It’s not expensive, it’s a reasonable level, and the people reflected in the window are two young men and women. They were a couple who looked like college students.
First, two men got out of the car and chatted with each other.
“Look at that! You said you were right here? You said you were sure this time!”
“How did you know there’s no sign? The promotion is a choice this time”
I approached the young men and women who were about to unload and talked to them.
“Hello? By the way, how did you come?”
“Oh, are you the janitor here?”
“Are you the janitor?”
“……Isn’t this a campsite?”
There seems to be some misunderstanding. I called Shion, who was playing in the water with the children, and asked him to come up for a while.
Her hair was tied together and she was wearing a one-piece swimsuit with blue and red lines. It sticks to the body so that the lines can be seen well.
“Is this a campsite run by any chance?”
“As I said earlier, I bought the place I was going to operate as a campsite. It’s a private property that hasn’t even registered as a business yet.”
“Really? The people here seem to know that it’s a campsite…”
“There is a campsite about 15 minutes along the road from here, but I think I may have mistaken it for it.”
Because it is a mountain road, first-timers are bound to get lost. Especially if it’s an area that doesn’t come out well with navigation.
The campsite is said to come from here, but it is not strange to be mistaken if there is a plausible place before that. Rather, it may be natural.
“Isn’t this a campsite?”
“It’s someone else’s private property.”
“Private property? Uh…Sorry. I’ll be leaving soon.”
Shion secretly held my hand and said.
“If I had known it would be like this, I would have installed a sign for the owner at the entrance of the mountain.”
“Well, it’s just confusing.”
But I think he’s a pretty good person. Even if I don’t know anything else, I can be confident because I have one eye for people.
“What is it? Did Seungjin go wrong again?”
“Isn’t this a campground? Who are the people who came first?”
The women who were still in the car got out and started talking to me. I explained to him that this is a private property and not a campsite. A look of disappointment appeared on both of their faces.
“What is it, the promotion was only confident about you, but you were wrong again.”
“Ah, I thought the pendulum was right this time…”
“Noisy. I can see why you were a shepherd boy in elementary school.”
The three of them harassed a man called Seungjin. But I didn’t mean it, it was just a joke.
Being human isn’t bad in my opinion. And since I think it’s better to play with a group of people, I immediately suggested what I thought of to them.
“Then, how about camping here? It’s empty and spacious anyway, so even if we use it, there’ll be plenty of space.”
“Huh? Is that okay?”
“Have you made a reservation for our campsite?”
“It’s enough to cancel and get a refund. It’s free, but the seats here are wider and better! There will be a lot of people there, so it’s better to play here.”
“Ol, the promotion took a step back and caught the cow?”
“Isn’t that a rat, not a cow?”
“Thank you anyway!”
The four of them expressed their gratitude and began laying out their belongings. The tent was not a one-touch, but an original tent that was built from the support.
I brought two, but had a hard time installing one.
“Hey! It’s plugged in here!”
“Ah, let’s start by making a support! That’s how comfortable it is!”
Two men were responsible for setting up the tent. If you had been in the military normally, you would know how to set up a tent, so even if it was slow, it was completed.
Slightly, Shion asks from the side.
“Is it okay if I let you play here?”
“Ah, I’m sorry. The name should be yours, but I decided too arbitrarily, didn’t I?”
“I don’t care about that. Mine is yours, what does it matter?”
“Then?”
“Being a human means asking if you’re okay.”
“It’s okay, they’re good people”
“That’s it”
I have one ability that I have developed through reincarnation. It is the ability to judge a person’s personality.
Having met and dealt with all sorts of human trash, I have the ability to determine a person’s personality based on their first impression.
In fact, this is also thanks to one of my abilities, ‘sense’. What is that… Someone who knows said that the specialty of ‘sensation’ is that it draws conclusions based on various data that it has experienced.
Thanks to that, I also got a hint on how to use this ability called sense.
People with the same ability are rare, so it’s rare to get advice, but among those few people, the only person who knows is an idiot, so I got information from him that I couldn’t get.
……I want to express my gratitude to that person, but it would have been nice if the spear of lightning hadn’t landed on my stomach.
That hurts so bad It hurts so much before dying. No matter how painful it was, I, who never dreamed of committing suicide, died of shock while contemplating suicide.
I remember being reincarnated as a woman back then and fighting a transcendentalist who was stronger than me.
Anyway, if you are an ordinary human being, you can figure out what a person is like at the first meeting. That’s why Shion also believes in my evaluation of people.
After setting up the tent and making some rough preparations, the four people came to us and introduced themselves and greeted us.
“My name is Yunsu Jin. I am a student at Daelim University.”
“I’m Son Seung-jin! Please take good care of me!”
“I’m Lee Ye-jin”
“My name is Jin Dew. Thank you for letting me use the seat!”
After hearing the story, it is said that the four of them are a fellow couple attending the same university. He said that he came together to play in the water this vacation and got on the wrong road.
If I hadn’t allowed it, I would have gone to the campsite next door and hung out in a crowded place.
“I’m a college student, what about a car?”
“I borrowed your car.”
“I’ll write nicely”
People can’t use it if they live a tight life. There are people in the world who hear the sound of hogu, but that’s what people who don’t think about themselves are listening to people who spread it.
Do I lose money by using land that I can’t even use up? Do I lose money by using the valley, which is a public land in the first place? In the end, if you’re greedy for something beyond your capabilities, that’s foolish law. When it’s full, you should know how to share it.
“I came here to play with my house and the family of the shop staff. I don’t have to worry about it, so I’m comfortable.”
“Shop? Are you the boss?”
“I’m just running a small chicken restaurant. Most of it is thanks to my wife.”
The four of them seemed to have a question mark appearing above their heads, wondering if they were imagining this or that when they saw Zion. To be honest, if I say that I, who can be trusted as a gangster, and Xion, who has a beautiful appearance like a doll and looks like an elementary school student, are a couple, most people react that way.
When playing, it’s fun when there’s a young person around… Ah, it just came to my mind, but I’m also young because I’m in my 20s. There isn’t much of an age difference between them.
There is such a thing as mental age… It’s much more fun to sit and watch the kids play than to play while moving your body.
“President’s brother! The water here is so good! There’s something like minnows going around!”
“Ruri, did you buy a swimsuit bikini?”
“Jjajajan! How is it! It kills my body!”
“I don’t think it’s something a high school girl would do.”
“I can see the slender body and the lines are missing, but when I take a pictorial, the rice cooker is a snap!”
Ruri was wearing a red mainline bikini, and although she didn’t have the full body she had just come out with, she had a slender body and her lines were well-kept, so she was quite attractive.
Frankly, Ruri was an attractive woman except for her personality. She has a pretty face, a nice body, a nice hairdo, everything is good, but her personality sucks.
That’s why, when you watch anime, isn’t she a character like that sometimes? Her appearance is not bad, but because of her personality and behavior, I don’t like her character.
Ruri is such a character. I don’t know who’s going to take that kid.
“But who over there? Does anyone know?”
“I was passing by and stopped by the wrong place. He just told me to camp here. They’re the same age as Baekri, so have a good time.”
“My brother was being bullied by the three musketeers in elementary school, and he was making a wave pool using force.”
“What are you talking about?!”
“No! From the point of saying ‘What are you doing?!’ To ‘What are you doing?!’, You can’t hide that Jojo! Answer me, Domon! School is invincible in the East!”
“The prince’s wishes… No, this isn’t it! Don’t play around and get out of here!”
“Today, too!”
I threw Ruri into the valley at once. Anyway, Ruri is also a Force user, so she is not easily hurt. Even if she fell from a high-rise apartment building to the bare ground, she wouldn’t break a single bone, but she couldn’t beat that she fell only a few meters to the water’s edge.
But why is Team Rocket the ambassador when they fall?
Baekri came out after playing for a while and was lifting and moving stones. Seeing that she can lift and move stones larger than her body with ease, it seems that she is also a force user and has matured.
“Baekri, what are you doing?”
“Ah, we go up and down here, but the footrests are a bit like that. We’re fine, but it’s uncomfortable for the kids to use, so I’m fixing it for a while.”
I brought big stones from the valley and made an impromptu downhill. I’d like to make it more concrete, but I’ll have to pour planks or cement over it, but I’ve made a ramp that’s good enough if it’s not wet.
In the first place, when there is moisture on the ramp, it is about when it rains, but who plays in the valley on a rainy day? It would be a catastrophe if the water swelled up and washed away even if it was just a little bit.
“Nice job. Oh, since there are watermelons, share them with the kids!”
“Watermelon? If I eat it now, won’t I be able to eat dinner?”
“Anyway, watermelon is mostly water, so it’s digested quickly, and it won’t be long if you share one bucket.”
Even when the kids are included, Baek, Ruri, Shion, and I eat more than normal people. The number of people is eight, but the amount they eat is comparable to that of 10 adult men.
But only one watermelon? It is fortunate that it is used to quench thirst. I brought two cans, but I plan to save them for tomorrow.
In the meantime, the campus couples also changed into swimsuits and entered the valley.
“Oh! The water is clear!”
“It’s nice because it’s cool. Should I put the beer I brought into the water?”
“It would be nice though”
Since there is no separate refrigerator, it is okay to put anything in the refrigerator. Just make sure no water gets inside.
I took a watermelon from the cooler in the trunk and threw it at Ruri.
“Ruri, take it!”
“What! A new face!!!”
“Isn’t it Anpanman or Watermelon Man?”
“No no. Oppa, I’m a woman, so I’m a watermelon girl. If you have such a stereotype in the world these days, you’ll be beaten by those who stomp.”
“Wow! It’s a watermelon!”
Since ancient times, few people dislike eating watermelon while playing in the water in midsummer. Especially the kids even more.
Among fruits, there are many fruits that are unripe or have a sour taste in the first place, but watermelon is quite sweet. So you have to like it.
“President oppa! Isn’t this a bit lukewarm?”
“Huh? It’s hotter than I thought, so the ice in the icebox must have melted quickly. It cools down on its own.”
“……Ah. Do you know that I can use this?”
Ruri held her watermelon with both hands and wrapped her force around it. And the temperature around it drops.
It was a change that felt chilly enough to be noticed by those who were watching. Campus couples were surprised by his heterogeneous appearance, but they soon learned that Ruri was a Force user and expressed curiosity.
“Wow, you must be a force user?”
“You still look young… Aren’t you a high school student? But you’re a Force user?”
“Becoming a force user doesn’t really matter how old you are. Maybe you’ll become a high school student.”
Only Baek-ri, a fellow Force user, was surprised and asked Ruri.
“Wait a minute, how did you do that?”
“Just a simple manipulation of the laws of physics? I suppressed the molecular activity around the watermelon and took away the heat energy. I can only do this much, but a really cool person can freeze water by freezing it?”
“On molecules? Is that possible?”
“It is possible if you understand the basic laws of physics and recognize various concepts.
“…Yes, you’re good because you’re science.”
“Your brother must be a blister. Gryffindor!”
What Ruri did is the same as the technique I frozen after disassembling the red tuna in Busan the other day. It is a technology that stops molecular activity to take away thermal energy and lowers the temperature to cool it.
It’s easier than you think, but it’s a tricky skill. Because we need controls that interfere with molecular activity, concepts to understand molecules and thermal energy, and so on. You say it’s easy? If you were born in the Middle Ages and had no compulsory education, try it.
It would be fortunate if we raised the concept of molecules and then got caught by the church and didn’t go through a witch hunt.
“Wait a minute! My sister will cut it right now!”
Ruri lifts the capital and eats the watermelon! She did and daringly sliced. Her watermelon, cut in half, revealed her bright red flesh. It must be delicious because it is a watermelon that I deliberately used my abilities and picked the ripe one at the mart.
Cut the watermelon in half, cut it in half again, and cut it in half again. Just leave the width of the watermelon as it is, and cut it wide enough to hold it with both hands.
“Since long ago, I’ve wanted to eat a large watermelon like this! But at home, my mom cuts it up so I couldn’t eat it because I cut it into small pieces, but today my wish came true!”
“Ah! Me too! Me too, watermelon!”
“Here, should I eat well without dropping it?”
Baek-ri gave the watermelon to her children. Larger cuts of watermelon may seem burdensome to children with small hands, but rather, they began to eat with large bites, as if the larger cuts stimulated their appetite.
After giving it to everyone else, Baek-ri also handed out watermelons to the campus couples who were playing next to them.
“Have some watermelon here.”
“Ah! Thank you! I’ll eat well!”
“What is it, and there won’t be much difference in age with me, so please speak comfortably.”
“Ah…Is that so?”
If Baek-ri hadn’t gotten a job at our store, she would have gone to college long ago, so she must be about the same age as them. No, Baekri is a military pencil, so if you think about that, you might be older.
After sharing a watermelon, they became friends and started playing in the water in earnest.
“Today’s water play team match! The blue team is me and my brother! The white team is the rest of the kids and college students and older brothers!”
“Huh? Isn’t the difference between the number of people too great?”
“This is not fair!”
Sujeongi, Seonghye, and Aram, four campus couples.
And facing them are only two people, Ruri and Baekri. Even without the kids, the score is 4 to 2, but you shouldn’t judge by numbers.
Force users are superhumans who can’t defeat even if dozens of sturdy adult men attack them. Even if a kid who woke up yesterday participates in the Olympics, he will break all records and even a professional martial artist can be knocked out with one shot.
“Eurachaa!”
When Ruri stretched out her hand as if to push the water away, the water swayed violently as if a wave had arisen.
The Annes caught up in it laughed at each other and enjoyed the waves.
Haha! This is so much fun! Oh, look at the crystal upside down!”
“Wait?! Poop?! Oops!!”
“Sister! One more time! One more time!”
The kids are completely gone. It’s not the beach, so there’s nothing to enjoy besides the current, but since there were two force users, they created waves by force to create a pseudo-wave pool.
It’s not as good as the wave pool at the water park, but it was good for the kids to enjoy while the waves were similar. But the kids should have brought a bigger tube. Like a small boat.
The sun was shining brightly and we were having fun, so we didn’t notice the time passing. I was soaking my feet in the water while watching the kids play, so the hot weather was cool enough that I didn’t mind the hot weather.
In summer the days are long. Even when the sun is up, it is difficult to determine the time, and when the sun goes down, it is deeper than expected.
The kids must be hungry since it’s been a while since they played in the water. I decided to go up and prepare dinner.
“Can I help you?”
“I just play with the kids more. It’s enough for me to prepare alone, so what?”
“Isn’t two hands better than one?”
“Do whatever you feel like”
Take out the meat and cut the whole thing into appropriate sizes. Charcoal put in the barbecue grill. If you ask why you don’t use comfortable briquettes, briquettes smell a lot. There are houses that grill meat over briquette fire, but if you are going to use it, charcoal is better than briquettes. If you find something moderately good, it’s rather good thanks to the charcoal scent.
Of course, using compressed charcoal as charcoal is rather harmful to health. Do you know what’s in compressed bombs besides waste wood?
Since no one was watching, I secretly lit a charcoal fire with Sammae Fire. No one smokes in my house, so I don’t have a lighter to light a fire, so it’s a terrible plan.
Place the grill on the barbecue grill and preheat it. Wait for the charcoal to light up evenly.
“I’ll prepare the rice and the table.”
“Ah, please”
Shion took out side dishes such as kimchi and ssam vegetables and put them on the table. Then he pulled out the gas burner, filled the pot with water, and started to boil it.
I didn’t prepare rice separately because I was afraid it would go bad. Honestly, instant rice is better than that, so you just need to heat it up.
After the water boils, put some instant rice in a few pots and heat them up. After a few minutes, I took out the fully heated instant rice and put it on the table.
“Shall we grill some meat soon?”
I bought a good barbecue grill and it is large. I thought it was a good buy because it was convenient to be able to grill meat for a group of people at once.
First, pork belly. Let’s be the first to upload it! The sound of meat cooking rises. After a while, the smell of cooking meat came up.
After all, samgyeopsal is a must for travel!
“By the way, where is the ssamjang?”
“Look carefully in the corner of the ice box. It should be somewhere around there.”
“Ah, I found it”
By the time the finish is over and a plate of meat is coming out. The children came out of the water and came up to the campsite, probably because they smelled the meat.
“Ah, the smell of meat! This smell is pork belly!!!”
“Who knows if it’s not a meat ghost just by smelling it?”
“Pork belly is always right!”
“Is the pork belly on your belly okay?”
“……..”
“Ah! Ah! Ah! Hey! It hurts! It hurts!
I can’t say I don’t have flab, but I have a decent body, but Baek-ri was bruised about it. I want to take Ruri’s side because I think being slightly protruding rather than skinny is proof of being healthy.
“Everyone sit down. Seo-ae sit down too. Everything is ready, so all you have to do is eat.”
“Ah, I should have helped you prepare…”
“It’s okay. It’s nothing special.”
The kids sat down at the table and ate the instant rice in front of each other. And when I put the properly cut pork belly in a bowl and serve it, the meat disappears in an instant. It was like a black hole.
It’s dinner when the kids in the middle of eating play in the water and come up to eat, but I seem to have underestimated their appetite.
“Hey! Ruri, it’s against the rules for you to take three points at once!”
“There’s nothing like that in front of pork belly! The one who eats first is the owner! A weak person can’t survive at the table!”
“Wow! Ruri’s hands are multicolored!”
“It’s stupid to see you doing that while eating, but it’s stupid”
“Yum yum yum”
Even though I baked about 5 servings, the kids were making faces that didn’t even say anything. When it was time to take it out, I took out my secret weapon from the ice box.
“You haven’t eaten yet? Then how about this?”
“……?”
What I brought out was quality meat… That’s beef too.
“Tupple beef sirloin for 10 servings”
“Azo is the best!”
Meat is always right.
