Side story. Bihomun’s daily life
Dokgo Jun hasn’t been feeling well lately.
There were several reasons why he was feeling bad. First of all, he had been basically depressed since his fate disappeared.
The story was over. The enemy that threatened the world was gone, and the return of normal life was a great disappointment to him.
If there was anyone who could satisfy his interest, it was Seo Kang-rim. Even though the story was over, he was still the main character.
But since the main character had a problem, he couldn’t feel good.
“Okay, everyone, take your seats. It’s been a while since I’ve used the conference room.”
Dokgo Jun said as he sat down at the head of the conference room. There was a cold air emanating from him for some unknown reason.
The people who sat down in the empty seats one by one were Jang Tae-heon and Yu Ha-rang, executives of Bihomun.
The two sat down, but they had expressions of discontent somewhere. Jang Tae-heon asked with his arms crossed.
“What’s going on? You’re the one who calls all the meetings. You’re the one who usually doesn’t come even when I call you.”
“Normally, meetings are nothing special. Anyway, everything will be resolved without me. This time, I called you because something important is going on.”
Dokgo Jun’s eyes were extremely serious as he spoke. Yu Ha Rang also looked a little nervous when she saw his eyes.
“What if it’s important?”
“You guys know, right? Seo Kang-rim’s current status… … .”
He spoke with a face that was neither smiling nor joking. When Jang Tae-heon looked at him as if asking what was going on, Dokgo Jun spoke seriously.
“It seems like Seo Kang-rim and Shin Soo-ah have entered a period of boredom these days.”
It was a voice that sounded as if the world was about to end, but it was an insignificant agenda item considering that a meeting had been held. Jang Tae-heon stood up from his seat as if he was dumbfounded.
“Is that all you called me? Two people’s love story is solved by two people… … .”
“And what if we break up?”
At those words, Jang Tae-heon stopped and looked back at Dokgo Jun. Then, his expression changed to one as if he had heard something ridiculous.
“The two of you are breaking up? That’s ridiculous. Two people who are so destined to be together? I can’t imagine it.”
“But fate has disappeared. Shin Soo-ah is no longer Seo Kang-rim’s destined partner. Isn’t it common for lovers to break up?”
It was common for couples who seemed like they would be together for a hundred years to break up for trivial reasons. Seo Kang-rim and Shin Soo-ah were no exception.
Dokgo Jun said it as if he was hammering a nail into it.
“And you guys must have felt it too. There’s something strange about Seo Kang-rim these days.”
“Is that so… … ?”
When Jang Tae-heon made a face that said he didn’t know, Dokgo Jun looked at him with a pitiful expression. Meanwhile, Yoo Ha-rang, who had been silent, opened her mouth.
“It’s a period of boredom… … The frequency with which the two of you date has definitely decreased. You weren’t doing well to begin with.”
After the Fate Protection Agency closed, Bihomun was also busy trying to sort out the chaotic atmosphere.
Because of that, the two people’s dates were usually replaced with conquering the magic realm. At that time, Jang Tae-heon spoke as if he was refuting.
“But it can’t be helped that the number of dates has decreased. Even if you try to go on a normal date, you two are both famous.”
If you were to pick the most famous people in the world today, anyone would name Seo Kang-rim and Shin Soo-ah.
If those two were to go on a normal date? It was sure to attract a lot of attention.
Although they could have gone on a public date to raise their profile, the two were trying to keep their relationship as secret as possible.
So it was natural that the frequency of their dates would decrease, but Dokgo Jun crossed his arms and refuted Jang Tae Heon’s claims point by point.
“Even if they don’t go out, they often cook and eat together at home or spend time together. Or they disguise themselves and sneak out to go to the movies or go to VIP restaurants.”
“… … How on earth do you know that?”
Dokgo Jun didn’t answer that question. He just smiled broadly. And then he continued talking.
“Anyway. Even though the two of you are busy, Seo Kang-rim’s behavior has been strange lately. He keeps going out hunting alone and staying at the blacksmith shop for a long time.”
Yoo Ha-rang and Jang Tae-heon nodded at those words. Seo Kang-rim has certainly been acting on his own more often these days.
Even when Shin Soo-ah said she would go with him, he refused, saying he was good enough on his own.
Yuharang muttered with a serious face.
“Is it really a case of boredom? I can’t believe it… …. Does it make sense that Seo Kang-rim’s personality would change so easily?”
“According to my character interpretation, Seo Kang-rim still loves Shin Soo-ah. But originally, that guy… … isn’t he the type that lacks confidence?”
“Ah. That’s true. I’m the type who thinks I’m lacking. Right, Jang Tae-heon?”
When Yoo Ha-rang called him, Jang Tae-heon nodded. He said while scratching his cheek.
“It was definitely like that before the regression. At that time, we encouraged Kang-rim a few times because we thought he and Moon-ju would get along well.”
“Ha, I’m jealous. You regressors… … I also want to know the content of the last episode.”
Dokgo Jun said as he looked at the two of them as if he was really jealous. His eyes sparkled with curiosity.
“Anyway. What did you say when I provoked you?”
“He said it was a waste for Shin Soo Ah to date him. Back then, my brother was weak… … . But even without that, my brother was a good person.”
Jang Tae-heon said bitterly. Dokgo Jun nodded as if he knew that would happen.
“When I asked him last time, he said that Shin Soo Ah was too good of a person to date. He said that he was too lacking.”
“Hyung Kang-rim… … . You’re talking about something that would make others throw stones at you if they heard it.”
It was true. Seo Kang-rim was a great hunter recognized by everyone, and he had the enviable assets and good looks.
Although it is no exaggeration to say that he is the best groom-to-be, he is always timid.
Yuharang said with a deep sigh.
“Well, when someone else asked me if it was okay for me to marry Shin Soo-ah, I heard that it would be okay if she was a good person.”
“Wow, Seo Kang-rim is really frustrating. Then, for the quick development of the two people… … .”
Dokgo Jun smiled brightly.
“Should I propose to Shin Soo Ah?”
-Gooooo… … !
As soon as he finished speaking, the conference room was filled with life. Yoo Ha-rang and Jang Tae-heon were glaring at Dokgo Jun as if they were going to kill him.
He looked like he was going to rush in and kill me at any moment. Dokgo Jun laughed at that sight and said.
“I’m joking. I’m rooting for them both. I really hope they get married soon.”
“marriage?”

“Yes. When we get married and have a child, my life goal is to become that child’s teacher and diligently teach and raise that child.”
At those words, Yoo Ha-rang and Jang Tae-heon held back their murderous intent. Because they had heard that Dokgo Jun was sincere about Seo Kang-rim and Shin Soo-ah’s relationship.
Instead, now Dokgo Jun had the look of a crazy person looking at him. The two exchanged glances quietly.
“For Kangrim’s brother’s comfortable future, wouldn’t it be better to kill this kid or lock him up somewhere?”
“I agree with you, Jang Tae-heon.”
“Excuse me. Would you mind plotting the assassination somewhere I’m not around?”
Dokgo Jun said calmly. Yu Ha Rang looked at him with eyes still full of caution and asked.
“So why did you call this meeting? To get these two married?”
“That would be best, but first, I thought I’d take Seo Kang-rim on a date since he seems to be having strange thoughts again.”
Dokgo Jun said with a smile.
“Well then, shall we all go on a trip together?”
* * *
A large crowd of people could be seen between the rows of street stalls. Everyone was holding a festival food such as cotton candy or alcohol in their hands.
It was early summer, a perfect time for an outing. Some people were seen enjoying a spring outing by laying out a mat under a tree.
At first glance, it looked like an ordinary summer festival, but the difference was that various types of races were mixed together.
“Ah, Seo Kang-rim! I reserved this seat for you. Come this way~”
“Brother! This way!”
Dokgo Jun and Jang Tae-heon, who were sitting on a mat, waved their hands and called Seo Kang-rim. Seo Kang-rim was standing in the middle of the crowd with both hands full of festival food.
Seo Kang-rim slowly approached them. He sat down under the largest tree, so the mat was spacious and comfortable to sit on.
As Seo Kang-rim approached, Jang Tae-heon smiled brightly and said.
“Brother, isn’t it nice that you came here to play? There won’t be as many stares from other people here.”
“That’s right. You’re thinking of coming to Shinyeok to play… … Whose idea was that?”
“It was Dokgo Jun’s idea.”
At those words, Dokgo Jun smiled proudly, like someone who had accomplished something great.
The Bihomun group thought about where to go on a trip for Seo Kang-rim and Shin Soo-ah’s date.
It was obvious that Shin Soo-ah, a workaholic, would object if we told her about going to a faraway sea or island, so we rejected it.
But if I went to a nearby suburb, I thought it would be too much of a hassle because there would be too many eyes watching me.
Then Dokgo Jun came up with an idea. It was to go on a trip together to Shinyeok.
“I heard there’s a sacred place that serves as a neutral zone for the twelve zodiac signs. I came here because there was a festival going on.”
As the saying goes, there seemed to be many bipedal animals and people in the shape of water animals among the festival crowd.
Seo Kang-rim said with a deep sigh.
“Okay. That’s good. But what the heck is this?”
Seo Kang-rim said, pointing to the headband he was wearing. It was a headband that resembled rat ears.
Dokgo Jun was also wearing the same thing, and Jang Tae-heon had something like snake scales attached to his cheek.
Dokgo Jun said with a big smile.
“When humans come, they stand out, right? That’s why we also disguised ourselves little by little according to the zodiac signs.”
“……okay.”
Although it was annoying to see Dokgo Jun looking happy, it wasn’t bad to live peacefully without being noticed.
Since you usually have to stand out to become more famous and powerful, there have been many times when I intentionally showed up and tried to attract attention.
But exposing myself to people every time was quite tiring. It had been a long time since I had been this relaxed. Seo Kang-rim said as he sat down.
“It would have been nice if other people had come too, it’s a shame.”
Since it was my first trip in a long time, I tried to contact the members of the protectorate, but they were too busy to come.
Father John was the same. He was currently busy with the conquest of the Demon Realm and helping people, so he couldn’t come.
Dokgo Jun said as if he didn’t really care about other people.
“Well, there will be another chance later. What’s important is that Seo Kang-rim and Shin Soo-ah came to play together.”
Seo Kang-rim’s eyes narrowed at those words. It seemed like he had noticed something strange.
“Are you doing this to watch us go on a date? Isn’t it enough for you to write all sorts of stories in a novel?”
