Chapter 65 (1/2)
I was soon able to meet my granddaughter. Of course, I wasn’t wearing a mask and I was wearing chef’s clothing. I just had to pull one thread and it was easy to transform.
“Grandfather! Over here. Here!” Mido jumped and waved her hands.
...She was still dressed in pink. Keke. I remembered when she was a child. In the old days and even now, Mido consistently possessed childlike purity. It was still the same.
I asked her, “Have you waited a long time?”
“No, I just logged in. Hihi.”
“I’m glad. By the way, where are we going?”
“Hehe, follow me.” Mido stepped forward in an excited manner and walked ahead of me. She headed to the south gate. “The place we’re going now is a place where kobolds appear.”
“Kobolds? I’ve never seen such a monster in the south?”
“Pfft, Grandfather really doesn’t know much.”
[The first apostle, ‘Prometheus,’ is agreeing enthusiastically and clapping.]
This little shit...
“The place we’re going now is a dungeon. It is called the Kobold Mine.”
“What is a dungeon?”
“Um~ how do I explain it?”
In fact, I knew the concept of dungeons. Prometheus’ memories were in my mind so everything felt familiar. It was my first time climbing this rocky mountain but it was so vivid that I could imagine what it was like in the past. Of course, it has changed a lot now.
“To put it simply, it is a cave with monsters.”
I continued to walk while conversing with Mido. We were able to appear at a wide area in the middle of the rocky mountain. There were more people than I thought and I inwardly frowned. I wanted to only be with Mido...
[The user ‘Mido’ has applied for a party.]
[A party has been formed.]
It would be a long time until I caught up. She was level 151. Mido looked surprised. “Wow, level 41! Grandfather, did you cook a lot? Isn’t it hard to level up a production class?”
“Well, that's right. Hahaha.”
I wanted to tell the truth but it didn’t seem like the time yet. Still, level 151.... how did she raise it so high? I was curious. “Your level is very high. How did you raise it? There wasn’t a capsule in our house.”
“Yes. Well... in fact, I went to a capsule room with the money I earned from a part time job. In addition, I’m in the virtual reality department. The professor left homework for us to write up notes when playing Arcstar. My seniors helped me level up.”
I suddenly became angry when I heard about her seniors and asked for the names of those seniors. “What are their names?”
“Huh...? Why?”
“I’m just wondering. I might meet them later. Keke.” I pretended to be casual.
“Um, who was it? There were five people...”
Shit, there were five.
“There are two seniors at the top of the year. Jeong Myeongsu oppa and Park Hyeondong oppa...”
I quickly took notes with the writing tools I had taken from the reporter. Jeong Myeongsu and Park Hyeondong.
“There are also three people who are two years older. Grandfather, you’ve probably seen them?”
“What? When?”
“Do you remember that time? The day when your capsule arrived at the house.”
“Yes, I remember.
“We watched the siege on TV and saw them there.”
What? I didn’t remember...
“At that time, one of them was holding a silver sword?”
Silver sword? Don’t tell me...
“That person who looks like a gisaeng?” [1]
“Puhaha. That's right, he is one of the three people.” Mido grabbed her stomach while laughing.
The name was definitely Kim Hyeonu. I quickly wrote the name Kim Hyeonu on a piece of paper. “Who are the other two?”
“Seniors Park Taejun and Eun Jeonghyeok.”
Park Taejun, Eun Jeonghyeok... coincidentally, they were the ones I saw on TV. Two new people were added but nothing had changed. Under the names, I wrote ‘death penalty’ in large letters and underlined it. These tiger-like guys. Just wait until they are caught. I would kick their asses!
“Kukuk, do you want to cook for my seniors?”
“Hmm?”
“No, you’re just writing something with an extremely serious face.”
Well... this was okay as well. They would probably taste hell. “Yes, I hope to meet them later. I will serve them a dish.”
“Wow! Really? Great!”
I was happy like Mido. Of course, it was for a different reason. Huhu, I was looking forward to that day.
“Only the two of us are hunting?”
“Yes, it’s been a long time since I came here but I can probably hunt them.”
“Yes, let’s go inside.”
We entered the mine.
[You have entered Kobold Mine B1.]
The moment we entered, I smelled the smell of a mine. In the past when I was a North Korean spy, I once passed through a mine similar to this. I couldn’t help remembering that time.
...I seemed to keep thinking of those days. Everyone had memories they wanted to forget but it wasn’t so easy. Love could be forgotten with a new love but not for me. It was truly heartbreaking.
