ACT 3 Mother
“How is it? Do you like it?”
Hyun-woo looked at his hed Her expression indicated that his mother still couldn’t understand the situation She stared blankly at the house for a while before speaking in a hesitant voice
“You really rented this house?”
“How many times have I said it? It is just like I said”
“But the money required to rent this place……”
“Mother, a son should have this much capabilities”
“But the rental deposit for a house near the hospital……you didn’t have to go through all that trouble I never dared iine a house like this……”
“Mother doesn’t have to worry about unnecessary things like that This ”
Hyun-woo spoke with a proud expression and stared at the house The rented house was a 3 storey house with a sarden
‘I orried at first but I soed to make it!’
Over the past two one insane orry The deposit fee for the rented house was 80deposit, that was 60 million won Thus Hyun-woo had spent the last twoafter money
‘What will I do if I don’t have theunexpected happens?’
The thought of having no money to pay the deposit filled Hyun-ith extreme anxiety In addition, 60 raduated fro the hospital bills and the cost of living, he had a fewa deposit account in his bankbook So naturallyon Hyun-woo’s ather the rest of the rental deposit money in the two months so he had been quite restless In the end he worried for nothing After converting his gold to money, Hyun-woo’s assets was a lot old because of ‘Ark’
Aside from Ark, Hyun-woo also had the rehabilitationbrothers and Lariette to help After all, Ark had Sid and the three pig brothers in his group so that was 4 eration to say that Hyun-as in charge of assetin various projects It was thanks to those investments that he could settle the rent balance Hyun-woo now summarized the order that the money was deposited in his bankbook
First froaro’s laboratory for 10 old Then there was Sid who sold the 16,000 ores Ark received in Seutandal In fact, Hyun-woo had intended to sell the raccoons living in Lancel village the ore But no matter how much the raccoons like the ore, it was i to the law of supply and deo down the more available the item was That hen Sid heard the news and appeared like the wind Sid used the information of the Continental Codom, then he used Sapjil and Ulmeok to increase the price Thanks to that, Ark was able to dispose of all the ore and the profits was 30 old froed the store, she earned around 1000 gold! Just those three alone was 6,600 gold That aoal
‘Huhuhu, I also can’t forget about Alan’s help’
Hyun-woo smiled and remembered the 9,000,000 won that had been deposited in his bankbook a few days ago It was the price Hyun-woo received for selling the Steel shi+eld of Hatred and Despair he received froeiron Hyun-woo had been disappointed after confirh it was a level 300 boss, all Wigurima dropped was a rare shi+eld which wouldn’t sell for that ain for it was 3 million won But he received an instant purchase request the ly the person who requested it was Char Man, Alan’s ID Hyun-woo checked that it was the saloves and his hypothesis was confirmed
‘There’s no doubt Alan also previously bought the Plated Gauntlets of Corrupted Hatred which had a skill related to the Hatred stat The Steel shi+eld of Hatred and Despair is also the same The only reason he would buy such ite set items’
If this was true than the situation was different People would nor how much they would spend on it But Alan was rich If he wasn’t after set iteive up no matter the price Thus Hyun-woo raised the price to triple the aed to sell it for 9 million won
‘Alan uy’
Thus Alan’s inti Of course, Alan would never wish for that to happen……
Anyway, thanks to Alan Ark had 15off the rent deposit But it wasn’t all good Hyun-woo’s wallet thickening ain saving 1 copper every day Although he was atte to save every copper he could, he wasn’t worried about starving to death
‘And acco’
Hyun-woo looked proudly at his oal over the last two ether with his oal as well Physical therapy and rehabilitation was essential So she put in a lot of effort and moved her body whenever possible
‘What is that? Of course soet better’
……There ht like that However, those who have stayed for a long time in the hospital or who had family there knew that it wasn’t an easy task Hyun-woo had watched his le for 6 years so he knew all too well At first all patients adet better But after one ivings There would be a feeling of helplessness fro so ive up It was natural Therefore they accepted that they couldn’t be completely cured
“The patient will have to cross the most difficult mountain to receive a complete cure”
That was so a doctor had said one year after his mother had been hospitalized It was natural Sometimes it was difficult for the sick person to endure the pain that came with the treatment That’s why doctors would say that ‘the patient’s will is the most i people But his et better’…no, she never lost her commitment and she ied her from the ICU
“I wanted to tell you this Patient Park So-ures have all io The hospital treats people with the idea that the patients’ ht it would be so effective…… She h she should still be careful, a complete recovery in the future doesn’t seem that distant”
The doctor in charge explained how eagerly histreatment
‘My troubles are nothing co’
After 6 years apart, Hyun-woo and his ether Fortunately that dreah to be an outpatient and she was rewarded with a lovely house with a garden But his mother looked at Hyun-orried eyes and said
“Hyun-woo, your h bad acts”
Why were all mothers the same in this situation? Hyun-woo pouted and whined like a child
“Why doesn’t Mother believe in her son? I’ve received a lot of education from mother so I knohat bad acts are Look at these clear eyes They are innocent They’re gentle like the eyes of a newborn baby”
“…… They entle and innocent but they are still impudent”
“It is genetic Anyway, I have done nothing that I am ashamed of In addition, you don’t have to be concerned because Hwa-rang ajusshi+ looked after me while you were in hospital”
“Oh, it’s been a couple of days since I’ve seen Detective Gwon What has he been doing?”
His mother suddenly spoke in a concerned tone Then a smirk appeared on Hyun-woo’s face
“Aha, the reason you’ve been looking around restlessly is because of Hwa-rang ajusshi+ Huhuhu, he’s the first thing you looked for when I started talking Is that how it is? When did your relationshi+p progress so much?”
“W-what are you saying……?”
“What’s wrong? I a 24 this year”
“24 years old……that’s right…… You were 18……now you’re already 24 years old……6 years……”
His mother’s face instantly darkened at Hyun-woo’s words
‘Ah, I made a mistake’
Hyun-woo belatedly realized In fact, his e wasshe had been a heavy baggage for her son Hyun-woo started talking in order to change the atmosphere
“Hwa-rang ajusshi+ and the hyungs are waiting at the house”
“At the house?”
“Yes, this is the first tis wereajusshi+ and the hyungs entered the house first to organize the baggage”
In fact, Hyun-woo had paid off the deposit just before the battle with Karakul began So while the game unit and internet had been installed at the new house, he had been playing at the ga the new house for the first time with his mother so he felt anticipation and excitement
“Come on, let’s enter!”
Hyun-woo pushed her wheelchair energetically and finally entered their new home There was the noisy sound of firecrackers as they walked through the front door
“Surprise!”
“Nooniratulations on your discharge!”
Ga-rang and the rehabilitation athered near the front door Hyun-woo realized how coathered in one spot The rehabilitation e that there was no space torooe that it felt like the rehabilitation members could play soccer in it
“Hehehe, noonim, you have come”
The rehabilitation members flocked around them
“Thank you You didn’t need to come……”
“Why are you talking like that?”
“We are men”
“Hyun-woo is our younger brother So noonim is like a mother to us”
“Oh, that reminds me? Should we call you mother?”
Then Ga-rang’s face hardened
“Hey you! Don’t say souys who have the DNA of anie?”
“Sheesh, why are you ”
“DNA? Why is hyung-ni DNA in this situation?”
“We’ve endured it until now, but hyung-ni Hood”
“It’s true Nooniuised as the grandmother You should escape before he eats you We’ll risk our lives to help you escape!”
“What, what the, these guys?”
“Hohohoho Thank you But Detective Gwon seems more like a bear than a wolf to me”
HisGa-rang and rehabilitation ’s collar aardly laughed and blushed
“Hahaha, yes I am a bear I’m not a wolf”
“Sheesh, suddenly a bear is really good Tsk tsk, this old bachelor……get out of the way”
Jjak-tung and Tazza kicked Ga-rang and pushed him into a corner Then they lowered their heads and smiled
“Now, let’s forget about the animal who doesn’t knohether he is a wolf or a bear Anye are Hyun-woo’s older brothers so we’ve prepared a se”
When his words finished, a bouquet and cake suddenly appeared in their two hands Then clapped her hands like a young girl and asked with startled eyes
“Oicians?”
“Heh, there is nothing we can’t do”
They were an ex-conambler so such tricks were easy for the part
“Shut up All you could come up as a bouquet and cake?”
“That’s right, now it’s our turn!”
Bul-kkun and the other rehabilitation members lined up in front of his an
“We’ve prepared a gift for noonim”
“Now, please look over here The living rooant s I know a h end curtains The 100 feel of silk when touching! It also has antibacterial and fungal control and is good for your health”

“Bah, you foolish fellow!” Hoill be curtain be useful for her health? This fellow doesn’t understand houses Nooni? Hahaha, that’s right This is called jade flooring Indeed, isn’t this the best material for the floor?”
Then it was Hae Gyeol-sa’s turn
“Heh, short, too short These fellows are thinking in such a short sightedthe bottoher TheDon’t you see the TV? Doesn’t the ? Nooniths andwallpaper”
“Hahaha, what silly people!”
At that ti room He turned around and saw that Bul-kkun and Ddeok-dae were laughing
“Curtains? Flooring? Lighting? Wallpaper? This is why you guys are only capable of cheap tricks Isn’t health the ? If you eat well then you will becoh end kitchen and refrigerator set!”
“And I’ve prepared a profession exercise set for your rehabilitation!”
“I’ll like to see any of you beat this Our eye level is different from you Hahaha!”
Bul-kkun and Ddeok-dae indicated towards the flashy kitchen and exercise equipround and murmured with sad faces
“Ugh, how regrettable”
“Theis definitely food and exercise”
“I only though to buy kitchenware……”
Ga-rang finally noticed a change and quickly interrupted
“Park-ni as well I’ve prepared a first class bed! It has a threefold spring structure and is very good for your back Furthermore, it is so robust that you can use it for 10 years”
However, all he got in return was the teasing of the rehabilitation members
“As expected fro blatant as a present……”
“In addition, 10 years? Isn’t he intending to secretly prepare itee? How sneaky……”
“Ohhh, please return to your zoo You unscrupulous old man!”
“W-what are these brats talking about? I just……”
Ga-rang face quickly turned red Then Hyun-woo looked around the house with surprised eyes and asked the Ga-rang and the rehabilitation members
“Ajusshi+, hyung-nims, this is the reason why you asked me for the key?”
“Well, it’s like we said We wanted to prepare it beforehand……”
“Did you think you were alone?”
Ga-rang and the rehabilitationHyun-as the type who didn’t like receiving one-sided help Therefore Ga-rang and the rehabilitation ifts for Hyun-woo secretly In fact, Hyun-woo had expected it to so their close relationshi+p, he had expected one or two gifts But Hyun-woo thought it would just be a few pots or pans He never iifts However, Hyun-woo’s reaction was different from what the rehabilitation members expected and he was just deeply ifts It was because he could feel the thought and regard put into each gift It was also for the sake of his mother……
Yes, Hyun-woo didn’t like receiving things one-sidedly But if it was for his mother…
“Thank you Ajusshi+, hyung-nims, thank you very much”
Hyun-as moved to tears and bowed When was it? When was the last tiratitude towards someone? And the last time he sincerely thanked someone?
“Eh? What the? What’s with this guy?”
“So…isn’t this much expected?”
The rehabilitation members blushed and scratched their heads at the unexpected response Ga-rang and the rehabilitation members looked at Hyun-ardly while his mother wore a soft smile There was a subtle silence Suddenly the front door sla
“Huk huk, I’ve arrived Huh? What’s wrong with everyone?”
Jung Hye-sun asked after belatedly noticing the aard atmosphere Hyun-woo just tilted his head to one side
“Eh? Hye-sun, you have today off?”
“Ah, what are you saying? The day your ed from hospital is a national holiday”
“National holiday? Today is a holiday? Isn’t it a weekday?”
Hyun-woo asked but Jung Hye-sun just ignored him and approached his mother
“Mother, I’ve arrived”
