60 – Auto Responder (4)

Before the sun went down, I was ready to go out and headed to the meeting place.

‘Sia is nice.’

The mate to help today is Yusia.

As expected of a daughter of a large company, it was convenient because it was a free pass to enter and exit most gates.

When I was almost at my appointment, I opened my phone to check the time.

6 pm.

Chaewon went to training at 5, so there was plenty of time. Even if I can’t, if I go home by noon, you won’t notice that I’m in the dungeon.

I zipped up the hood all the way up and approached the woman standing under the lamppost.

“Did you wait?”

“I just came too.”

Sia smiled shyly.

“let’s go. To the dungeon.”

“Yes, let’s go.”

We moved to the dungeon.

“Thank you brother. … He also gave me a valuable artifact, and he said he was watching my training.”

“Well, because I’m bored. Do you know instead?”

“Yep. It’s a secret from Chaewon, right?”

“uh. just keep it Hide your strength too.”

“Yes.”

‘No matter how you think about it, I’m a genius.’

He nodded as if satisfied.

Taking Sia to the dungeon and training her? I brought the ingredients and it was a win-win.

“brother.”

At that time, Sia gently grabbed my sleeve.

“yes?”

“Can I ask you a question?”

“Okay, ask me anything.”

Shia opened her mouth slowly with a look of hesitation.

“Is your phone broken by any chance?”

“phone?”

I smiled and took something out of my pocket.

“Hey, it’s the newest one. Why is this broken?”

It was the new iPhone 13.

“… I see.”

Seeing the smartphone, Sia’s expression became sullen for some reason. I asked with a puzzled expression.

“why?”

“Oh, no.”

I thought about why Sia had such a reaction, but there was only one.

‘Are they really disappointed that they don’t use their company’s?’

He smiled and patted Shia on the shoulder.

“Improve the design. Then I’ll think about it. To be honest, it sucks.”

“No!”

**

Sia and I were standing in front of the door of Lide Apartment 206 located in Cheongdam.

“To think there is a dungeon in a place like this… .”

Shia muttered, covering her mouth. It looked pretty cute, so I replied with a smile.

“It’s a place nobody knows. Except for the two of us.”

“… the two of us?”

I nodded.

This dungeon was discovered exactly 5 years later.

Who would have thought there would be a dungeon here?

“By the way, where are you sick?”

“why?”

“Your face is red.”

Shia’s face turned red for some reason. If it hurts, I thought I’d just watch it today.

“… It doesn’t hurt. Shall we go in?”

She avoided my gaze as if she was hiding something and grabbed the apartment doorknob.

“Let’s go in.”

“Yeah.”

-Shoot it.

Upon entering the dungeon entrance, it was a completely different atmosphere from before.

Unlike the bright apartment lobby, the atmosphere was dark and subdued.

“Today, I leave the monsters up to you. it’s all training know?”

“I know. Please leave it to me.”

A golden pistol emerged from Shia’s hand. As if I was used to it, I moved forward through the darkness.

‘I can see it already.’

Before long, monsters began to appear.

The monster in this dungeon was a hideous ghost.

He is a deranged type, so he seduces people.

Shia and I can’t stand monsters like this…

– Wow!

“… ?”

A sweet scent tickled my nose.

I turned my head with a bewildered expression.

When I looked to the side, Shia was held tightly to me.

“What are you doing?”

Unlike Shia, who is usually full of confidence, she was somewhat frightened.

“… I’m sorry. by mistake.”

Even my cat couldn’t believe it.

But being gentle, I decided to let it pass.

A 17-year-old adolescent girl is unpredictable.

“Be careful next time.”

I’m saving my arms for my future wife.

No matter how much he is my brother’s friend, touching my body…

“Heb.”

Shortly after falling from my arms, Sia came into my arms again.

“Hey Mr… ! What is it?”

Sia whispered to me in a small voice, perhaps embarrassed.

“No, I’m scared.”

“… ?”

“What are you afraid of?”

“Yu, a ghost.”

I gently pushed Sia away.

“Sia. It’s not a ghost, it’s a monster. What if Hunter is scared?”

She was Shia, who was called the princess of slaughter in her previous life.

It was strange to see a kid who had beaten a dragon look like this.

“I know… It’s scary.”

I was scratching my head.

‘Is it really scary?’

Even Chaewon was afraid of something. What’s different about Sia?

With an expression that I couldn’t help it, I snatched Shia’s gun like last time. Then, in moderation, he pulled the trigger at the ghost.

“Did you see it? just a monster If you shoot like this, you will die on your own.”

Sia looked at me blankly with a puzzled expression. I was surprised that he even shot the gun well.

“… brother.”

“why? Are you shooting too well?”

“None of them were right.”

When I turned my head, the ghost I was aiming for looked clean.

‘… It changes?’

scratched his head

To make matters worse, the number of ghosts increased more than before, perhaps due to the gunshots attracting aggro.

“brother! scary.”

Shia hugged me tighter.

Seeing Sia, who was frightened differently than usual, somehow made me feel lightheaded.

‘Sia is pretty and has a lot of money… Aren’t you okay?’

If you wait a few years, it’s not going to happen.

Since I’m friends with Chaewon, the sisters-in-law would have a good relationship, but after giving birth to two children, Oh Soon-do…

“brother?”

Shia’s voice brought me to my senses. He shook his head and patted his head.

‘What are you thinking about high school students?’

What matters now is not this.

I had to get out of this situation right now.

It could be easily solved if I stepped in, but Sia, who has to protect Chaewon, shouldn’t have any weaknesses.

“Sia.”

I lowered my voice.

“Yeah?”

“You have to learn to overcome fear in order to grow.”

“I know, but it’s not easy.”

“If you deal with those monsters, I’ll grant you a wish.”

I don’t know if it will work, but I tried it once. If not, I have no choice but to take care of it…

“Really?”

“yes?”

“Are you really granting me a wish?”

Shia’s eyes twinkled. I answered vaguely, turning my head.

“Except money.”

Sia fell out of my arms. Then, as if it were the same person as before, he smiled faintly and held the pistol in his hand.

“Please keep your promise.”

She inadvertently pulled the trigger. Magic bullets larger than the muzzle of a gun rushed at the ghosts, as if the bullets contained magical energy.

-Shoot it!

With just one shot, the ghosts were annihilated. I felt cheated.

“Hey.”

“Yeah?”

“You are ugly.”

“… … What?”

Seeing Shia’s expression, I was puzzled. It may seem like crap, or it may not.

I said with a sigh.

“done. Help me get the ingredients.”

“Yeah. I will help you.”

Shia smiled faintly.

“Oh, can I tell you my wish?”

“What.”

“… Please reply via KakaoTalk.”

“Kakao Talk?”

I looked at Sia with a puzzled face.

Of course, your wish is KakaoTalk.

‘That bastard’s KakaoTalk… !’

I thought hard about the future.

First of all, I have to reply to Chaewon… I also have to reply to Sia.

I had a sudden thought. I really might be an answering machine.

‘Come to think of it… Are you doing well?’

The most important point that we have arranged for this gig today.

answering machine.

I was worried about whether it was working well… Ay no way

If not, would a nine-tailed fox who lived for a thousand years be stupid?

**

nine tailed fox.

One of the 7 divine beasts and a mythological being, she was grooming herself while turning into a trivial cat.

‘It doesn’t make sense.’

The reason she came to Earth was because of a story.

I was pushed back in the rank war.

In Hwangye, it was concluded that the 7 major divine beasts would be Suzaku, Phoenix, Hyeonmu, and Blue Dragon, and the other divine beasts were eliminated one by one.

The last thing left is a gumiho.

She was like that, but no matter how strong she was, she couldn’t stand being beaten by the four great divine beasts.

However, unlike other extinct Shinsoo, the nine-tailed fox used his powers to move dimensionally to Earth.

Thanks to that, he lost most of his strength and turned into such a small creature.

The gumiho felt so pitiful that he wanted to cry. The problem is that Cats don’t have tear glands, so they can’t shed tears.

– Haljjak, Haljjak.

The gumiho, who was eagerly licking his fur with his tongue, suddenly raised his head and looked around.

‘Scary human!’

The nine-tailed fox trembled as he imagined Seonghun from before.

“Nyaang!”

I turned into cats because I wanted someone to raise them. It was because he knew in advance that low-ranking monsters called Cats were very popular in the human world.

But I didn’t think that the main character would be Sung Hoon.

Miho recalled the feelings she felt when she first met Seonghun.

A nine-tailed fox is closer to a heroic spirit than a substance.

She saw the other side of Sung Hoon’s true self.

that’s… … It was pitch black darkness.

Gumiho couldn’t even think of running away because his legs were weak just by looking beyond Seonghun.

‘I have to run away!’

That monster is also a monster, and Chaewon was also scared.

– Just go. die.

A human being who dared to say ‘die’ to a being with extraterrestrial powers like Sung Hoon!

Miho couldn’t even measure Chaewon’s strength.

Of course, I haven’t seen the other side of Chaewon yet. I almost died of a heart attack just by looking at Sung-hoon, but I didn’t have the confidence to handle it when I saw Chae-won, who was expected to be stronger than Sung-hoon!

-Kakao Talk!

“Nya?”

When the soles of the feet are licked as the final step of grooming.

An alarm went off on Sunghoon’s cell phone.

-Chongchongchongchong.

Miho hurriedly ran away!

She recalled Seonghun’s words earlier.

-Password 0000. It’s simple for you. do you see this?

[Yes, yes… Is it ‘ㅇ’?]

-uh. that’s right. When you hear the sound, hit ‘ㅇ’ twice and press send. If you do that… …

-I’ll return Yeouiju.

‘Wrong human!’

Yes. Sung Hoon stole the ‘fox bead’, which was virtually everything to the nine-tailed fox.

Yeouiju means a round and pretty bead the size of an egg candy. For a gumiho, rather than simply symbolizing ‘strength’, it’s a lifelong friend. The feeling of a lifelong partner was strong. Since those things were taken away, Miho couldn’t do anything about it and had to listen innocently to Sunghun’s words.

Of course, from Seonghun’s point of view, he did it because he was worried that he might harm Chaewon.

Miho had no intention of hurting Chaewon in the first place…

Seonghun couldn’t believe such an Old Testament.

‘Evil human! revenge… It’s impossible, but I’ll put a curse on you that you won’t be able to date a girlfriend for the rest of your life! Let’s start by finding my fox beads.’

-Hook, hold.

Sobbing inside, Miho sent KakaoTalk messages without hesitation. I couldn’t believe how he had come to be in such a miserable state. Being kicked out of the fantasy realm wasn’t enough, taking away the fox beads in one day!

[My one and only lovely sister] : Coming soon!

[Sunghoon] : Yes

[My one and only lovely sister] : ㅡㅡ Why are you giving only short answers? brother? die?

[Sunghoon] : Yes

[My one and only lovely sister] : ?

[Sunghoon] : ㅗㅗ

“Nyaa! (Oops!)”

Since it has the shape of Cats, I didn’t press it with my finger, so I had minor click issues.

Due to inertia, I kept repeating the same thing for hours, I sent it by mistake!

Miho scratched his head with a cotton bat and thought.

‘I want to eat churros. human. Come quickly.’

For reference, Cat’s intelligence was not very good.
