The World’s Best Childhood Friend Episode 903 (903/1020)
Paradise.
It’s an annoying and annoying word.
“It’s paradise….”
I sat quietly on the chair and thought about the conversation. My head still felt uncomfortable.
Paradise. It’s a beautiful word when you just hear the name, but now it doesn’t seem so good.
The problem is that the person who spat it out was none other than the Blood Demon.
‘The guy said he dreams of paradise.’
Did you say you would make the Central Plains a paradise? Or did you say you would go to paradise?
That part isn’t clear, but I guess that’s what the guy’s purpose is.
But.
‘Man-gye is also called paradise.’
If this place I am in now is called paradise, could it possibly have something to do with what the Blood Demon said?
If there is a connection, how is it connected? That part bothered me.
‘In particular, the blood demon’s reaction to his mother was like that.’
Enemy, or alert.
Although I haven’t seen him in a while, he always looks at me as if he finds any situation funny.
As soon as that guy saw his mother, he became very alert.
The paradise that Man-gye and Hyeol-ma spoke of has something to do with it.
It was a moment when I became so certain.
at that time.
widely.
Something was placed on the table in front of me. I looked up to see what it was, and it was a teacup.
“Eat.”
I looked at the person speaking. Of course, he wasn’t human.
It was a man with black hair and beast ears.
He doesn’t seem to be that old, but I don’t think you can judge him by his looks.
“who?”
When asked about his identity, the man’s brow furrows.
“… I am the great disciple, Gubongi.”
A great disciple.
I couldn’t help but make a strange expression at those words.
‘A great disciple.’
A word that really only a sect would use popped out. No matter how you look at it, it seems strange, but I didn’t bother to show it.
No, it would be obvious, but I think it would be right to see that he held back as much as possible.

“I see. So what is this…?”
“It’s called plum tea. It’s something that Jang Moon-in personally cultivated and made.”
“…”
After hearing that, I couldn’t control my expression.
‘… He grows it himself? That old man?’
Is it true that the man with the worst temper in the world had an interest in such things?
If it was a plum blossom line, then it would be okay, but if it was called Shin Noya, it didn’t really suit me.
I can’t stand it anymore, so I just stare at the car.
“Know it as glory.”
“hmm?”
A beast-man named Gubong adds to my speech.
“It is something that is not normally given to anyone, but it is something that the Jangmunin has specially… given to me very specially.”
“iced coffee.”
I nodded at those words.
And he looked at Gubong and said.
“You don’t like me, do you? Why?”
“…”
Gubong’s eyebrows moved at the question.
He had an expression on his face that said he didn’t know I would ask him so openly.
I was just asking out of pure curiosity.
“It seems like we’re meeting for the first time. I guess that’s true. I’ve never seen anyone like you anywhere. But why do you hate me…?”
I took a sip of plum tea as I spat out the words. I was surprised.
‘This is delicious.’
The plum tea was surprisingly clean and fragrant. It was quite strange to think that it was made by that eccentric old man.
“… That’s not it.”
I snickered at what Gubong said.
“No, really. Just looking at that double eyelid in your eyes would kill someone.”
“…”
“I’m not the type of person who would be liked no matter where I go. But I don’t like getting cursed at for not committing a sin.”
I took another sip. The tea was finished in two sips. It was so delicious that I couldn’t control myself.
“What is it?”
He spoke while looking at her clearly, but Gubong did not respond. It only strengthened the emotions in his eyes.
What the heck? I really want to gouge out your eyes.
‘Pull it out?’
I’m getting annoyed.

I’m already so annoyed that everything else is a hassle.
At the moment when I was thinking about whether to give it a try.
“Tsk.”
Someone strokes my hair, making a tongue-clicking sound.
Rough hands, rough palms. And the scent of plum blossoms wafting in.
I could tell who it was without even having to say anything.
“Why are you fighting in someone else’s house? If you’re going to do it, go out and do it.”
“… I meet Jang Moon-in… .”
Gubong bows his head.
The owner of the hand was, of course, Shin Noya.
I confirmed this and immediately spat it out.
“Where have you been? How can you just throw someone down and disappear?”
“Didn’t you say you’d be back for a bit? Why are you fighting already when you’ve only been gone for so long?”
“Who is fighting? Can’t you tell just by looking at it? I was the one who was picking a fight.”
“You’re funny. How many people in this world would pick a fight after seeing your face, Aesong?”
“I think Noya will be the one to do it.”
“Would you like to get hit?”
“no.”
I cut off the words as the hand stroking my head became stronger.
The problem is.
‘Look at the eyes.’
Is it that Gubong’s gaze, which was watching that, became a little more intense?
What is it? Is it jealousy? No.
‘It seems a bit more like jealousy…’
Something different felt different.
“Gubong.”
“Yes, Jang Moon-in.”
“Thank you for your hard work. Go out.”
“… Haona.”
“I’ll do the rest, so just rest a bit. This guy has such a dirty temper that if we stay together, he might bite you.”
“Now you treat people like dogs…?”
“You’re not human.”
“This old man again?”
“Be careful what you say.”
“hmm?”

While I was arguing with Shin Noya, Gubon intervened.
“Please address the elder brother correctly. Be polite.”
From what I’ve heard, it seems like the problem was that they called him old.
“Yeah, you punk. Tsk tsk, you rude old man. You old man.”
In the meantime, Shin Noya joins in and laughs. This is really ridiculous.
He said this through gritting his teeth.
“Yes, Jang Moon-in. Stop teasing me and sit down in front of me.”
“Okay.”
“Fuck.”
“I can hear everything.”
Shin Noya walked over and pulled up a chair in front of me and sat down.
“Thank you for your hard work. Go out and have a look.”
“…”
“Gubong.”
“… Excuse me.”
Gubong leaves, paying homage to Shin Noya. Even as he leaves, it seems as if he hasn’t forgotten to glare at me.
“Your eyes are so bright….”
I was about to frown and show my annoyance when Noya burst into loud laughter in front of me.
“Hahahaha.”
After hearing that, I spoke to Noya as if I was questioning him.
“What’s with that kid? Why does he keep acting like that?”
“Don’t say anything like that. Isn’t it cute when you show your malice so openly?”
“It’s not cute at all. I really wanted to gouge out my eyes.”
If it were original, I wouldn’t have tolerated it. However, this was also a space that Shin Noya had created. I tolerated it because it seemed like the bastard’s feelings were based on Noya.
“That guy really has a temper.”
“Then, if it were Noya, would you have endured it?”
“If it were me, I would have cut off his neck first.”
“… That doesn’t seem like something a real Taoist would say.”
I had no intention of killing him, but this guy is trying to kill me without hesitation.
“Anyway. Just ignore it. That kid is a bit too much.”
“…”
I didn’t answer. I didn’t think I could tolerate it if it happened again.
Noya also did not point this out.
It was ambiguous to see it as permission. It seemed like they were just going to let it slide.
“Is the car okay?”
Advertisements
“… Yes. What.”
“Judging from your expression, it must have been delicious. Tsk tsk.”
“…”
Got caught.
I wanted to say it wasn’t tasty, but the tea was definitely tasty.
“How have you been?”
“no.”
“I’m glad you’re doing well. I wasn’t too bad either.”
“… I said no, but if you’re going to ignore it, why did you ask?”
“Honestly, I’m not really curious, but shouldn’t I just do something roughly?”
That’s a very vague answer.
“Where did that black-haired girl go?”
“I don’t know. He just suddenly left.”
“…Is it okay if I don’t know?”
Noya looks at me as if he finds it ridiculous.
Of course. Noya would know that guy is a demon.
Yeah. Normally, you’d have to be a little more careful.
“…it’s okay.”
I ignored it without realizing it. It wasn’t good. It’s something I need to think about a little more deeply.
‘I was intoxicated by the situation.’
The situation is so chaotic right now that I think I forgot about it without even realizing it.
“Hmm.”
Noya nods his head when he sees me like that.
The more I look at it, the more I feel that it is indeed quite sharp.
but.
‘He’s annoyingly handsome.’
I really didn’t like the appearance that seemed so handsome when I was young.
“What are those strange eyes?”
“I just thought of something I didn’t like.”
“Looking at my face…?”
“It was a misunderstanding. I just looked and there was a Noya table… No, there was just a face.
“…no.”
Noya hesitated for a moment, wondering whether he should be angry or not. Then he sighed and said.
“… Okay. I don’t want to get angry at you for everything. Ask whatever you want.”
“yes.”

He asked Noya with an embarrassed expression.
There were still so many things I wanted to ask and so much to figure out.
“Is there any way back?”
The most important thing was how to get back in the end.
The problem is.
‘Does that old man know that?’
Listening to Shin Noya, it seems that he has been here for one hundred and fifty years already. I wondered if there was a way.
So I asked with a sense of anxiety.
“there is.”
“…!”
Surprisingly, Noya said there was a way.
“What? You don’t look like you know it’s not there?”
“Of course. If there is, why… .”
You haven’t come back yet? I was going to ask that.
“It exists, but it’s because it can’t be used.”
“…yes?”
What does that mean?
“You must be aware that this is another world, right?”
“yes.”
How could I not know?
There are non-human things roaming around, and there are two moons. How could you not know?
“Since I have come to the other world… In order to go to another place, I must ultimately receive permission from the master of this world.”
“… Permission?”
There is a master in the world. You can go anywhere only with the master’s permission?
I don’t understand. If so.
“Why do I come here-.”
Did you just come over without any problems? I was going to ask about that.
“That’s because there is no master in the Central Plains.”
Noya’s words were faster than that.
“Don’t you know that? That’s why Jungwon is in that state now.”
“…”
I hate to understand it, but it’s true.
‘… That means.’
Ultimately, the meaning of these words is one.
“So you need to get permission from the master of this world to go back?”
Advertisements
“okay.”
“…Master… .”
The master of this world. If I get his permission, I can return to the Central Plains?
“I’m not sure, but at least that’s what I think.”
“…”
Hearing that, I thought of someone. If I were the master of this world… .
“right.”
Noya told me.
“Yes, it’s your mother.”
“…!”
“You probably already know that, don’t you?”
“…I wasn’t sure.”
Noya burst into laughter at my words.
“No, I guess you just didn’t want to believe it.”
That’s true for me too.
Lord of all worlds.
The words of Mu-a and the words of the blood demon combine and eventually become one.
Mother was the master of this world.
‘then.’
It’s shocking, but I thought it might be a simple method.
at that time.
“I know what you’re thinking, but it’s not that easy.”
Noya read my thoughts and quickly spoke up.
“It’s not easy?”
“The master of the world doesn’t want his children to go somewhere else. He even said that they don’t get along very well. This is especially true for Man-gye.”
“…What do you mean?”
“This part… is a bit long, so I’ll explain it later. The important thing is, if you’re expecting maternal love from her, put that aside, it’s a meaningless expectation.”
Why? That thought just comes to mind.
I don’t mean to say that I only hoped for that, but it was something I had in mind to some extent.
But you want to exclude it altogether? I was particularly bothered by the part where it said it was meaningless.
“Why?”
So when I asked him in words, Noya spoke to me with slightly trembling eyes.
“She is your mother… but she probably isn’t now.”
“…yes?”
“This is especially true for her, who despises dragons. You must not meet her. If you are not careful, the situation will change drastically.”
Advertisements
“What does that mean?”
Do you despise dragons? Your mother is right, but you are not?
“I don’t understand, Noya.”
“That’s… ah.”
Noya, who was about to speak, suddenly sits up.
It was an expression that seemed to have noticed something.
“I guess you just woke up.”
“yes?”
“I’ll explain as we go. Get up.”
“Again… ?”
Where do you keep going?
I just got home, why bother doing anything?
“Is the young man tired already? It’s not far. It’s over there.”
Noya points out the window with his hand.
There was a place there where I was surprised the moment I saw it.
“The guy down there woke up, so let’s go there first.”
“Are you awake?”
The moment I began to wonder if something was sleeping.
“Yeah, I woke up.”
Kukugugugu—!!!
“…!”
The ground shook and goosebumps immediately appeared on my arms.
at the same time.
[Ugh.]
I heard a cry.
When I heard that, I immediately raised my head.
Could this sound be true?
“The master in charge of the darkness of this land.”
[Koooooooo.]
The crow howled.
