“······.”
The first thought that occurred to me when I opened my eyes was that I didn’t want to do anything today.
By the way, today is Monday.
As I reached out to the side to pick up the water bottle, a groan escaped my lips without me realizing it.
“Ugh!”
My arms were swollen.
It was the price for overdoing physical labor the day before. Not only the arms that had used the wall force, but the muscles in my entire body screamed as a group.
Besides, you drank so much last night…
I gave up the water bottle and lay down straight again. Then I closed my eyes and practiced the Great Heart Method.
The greatest advantage of the Daehansim method is its stability, and it can be practiced while lying down or standing.
Ss …
The mana flowing from the danjeon circulated to every corner of the body, expelling the alcoholic energy.
At the same time, it gently wrapped around the overworked muscles and reduced the pain. It wasn’t a perfect cure, but it was at least first aid.
After finishing one breath and opening my eyes again, I saw the ceiling of the tent.
Last night, after finishing the company dinner, our team of seven (just me and a kid) returned to my tent in the restricted area.
I could have gone to a hotel or the guild headquarters, but I was afraid it would be noisy around here, so I came here for the peace of mind.
I looked up at the ceiling and yawned with my mouth wide open.
“Huh~. Should I sleep a little more?”
It was okay to sleep in today, since I didn’t have to go to work at the guild.
-You worked hard today. Don’t go to work tomorrow and get some rest.-
The moment I saw the text message Baek Chang-soo sent last night, I shouted “Long live the CEO!” and turned off my phone.
And I ordered more alcohol and drank it like a gintang.
“···I felt like my head was hurting.”
After mumbling for a while, I was barely able to raise my upper body.
On the other side, on the mattress, Lily was seen sleeping in an odd position.
“Cool···.”
The pig witch who conquered a chicken restaurant last night was fast asleep with her bulging belly exposed.
“Chicken… It’s delicious….”
While snoring with the happiest expression on his face.
“Chicken… what the hell… sir… what the hell….”
This is why language education at a young age is important.
You can teach a word wrong and become a f*ck in a moment.
“Hmm···.”
The little boy tossed and turned, scratching his chubby belly.
The blanket that was given to cover me with had been kicked away, or it was far away.
“Ugh. You seem like a little kid who uses his hands a lot.”
I covered the little boy’s stomach with a blanket and went out of the tent.
I took a breath of fresh air and my mind cleared up a little.
I stretched my body above my head and slowly did Tai Chi to loosen up my body.
After about 30 minutes, I returned to the tent, sweating moderately.
“Chicken… Ah, no….”
The little one was still sleeping comfortably on his back.
I don’t know what kind of dream he has that makes him sing so desperately about chicken.
I lay back down in bed.
“After all, being lazy and just playing around is the best.”
Playing is the best. This is the truth of life.
If only I hadn’t regressed, I would have been enjoying a happy life by now… Damn it.
“I get angry again when I think about it.”
Even if it’s unfair, I’m going to retire in a much more glamorous way.
I felt like I would only be satisfied if I earned dozens of times more money, became much stronger, made a bunch of successful friends, and lived my entire life without worrying about what other people thought.
Anyway, take a rest today.
Gulp.
When I checked my watch at the sound of the boat, it was already well past lunchtime.
“Should we eat something?”
I happened to get some good ingredients yesterday, so I was thinking of making a new Mana Nutrition recipe today.
About an hour later, I managed to create something that looked like the color of hellfire and brimstone.
“······.”
I was momentarily speechless at the sight unfolding inside the pot, a sight that seemed to me like something I had seen in the demon world before.
How on earth did it turn out like this?
You put in all the delicious ingredients, and you also added half of the monster snail meat and the heart meat?
“···Well, things that are good for your body are supposed to be bitter.”
I decided to convince myself like that.
I woke up Lily, who was still lying in bed.
“Hey kid. Let’s have lunch.”
“······.”
“Hey! Aren’t you going to get up?”

“······.”
“Do you think I don’t know that you’re pretending to sleep?”
Shudder.
The little boy turned to the other side, pretending to toss and turn.
Hoo. Is that how you’re going to come out?
I muttered to myself, loud enough for Lily to hear.
“I can’t help it. I guess I’ll have to eat all the chicken I packed up yesterday by myself.”
After a while, the little boy woke up and stretched.
“Whoa. I slept well~!”
“······.”
“Should we eat now? What’s on the menu? Is it chicken?”
I handed a bowl filled with a ladleful of soup from the pot to the little boy who blinked his big eyes, pretending to be innocent.
The second recipe for the Landlord Mana Nutrition Diet.
The name is
“This is what’s for lunch today.”
“······.”
For a brief moment our eyes met.
and,
“No! I won’t eat it!”
The little boy tried to escape out of the tent, but before long he was grabbed by the scruff of the neck and forced to sit at the table.
“If you keep being a picky eater, you won’t grow tall.”
The kid looked like he had been poisoned.
“The food you make is not tasty…”
···It’s humiliating. I can’t believe I’m making a dish that even this glutton shuns.
I tried to control my expression and spoke seriously.
“This time it’ll be different, so try it. It looks like this, but it’ll probably be pretty tasty, right?”
“lie.”
The little boy looked like he didn’t believe me at all.
Well, that’s true for my country too.
I scooped up a spoonful of the meat broth from my bowl, put it in my mouth, and chewed it.
“Hmm? Huh? This is tastier than I thought?”
“···lie.”
“If you don’t want to believe it, then don’t believe it. I’ll eat it all myself.”
As I began to eagerly eat the meat soup, Lily made a puzzled expression.
“Wow, it’s delicious.”
“···really?”
The troubled little boy finally picked up his spoon and took a sip of the meat soup.
and,
“!!”
Shh.
Lily shuddered with betrayal as she saw my smiling face.
“It doesn’t taste good!!”

It was late in the afternoon when Baek Young-hee received a call.
When I turned on my phone, which had been turned off, there were about 20 missed calls and text messages, but before I could check them all, the phone rang.
-Team Leader! Why can’t I contact you? You even turned off your phone…
I quickly cut him off because I thought the nagging would go on for too long.
“I slept the whole time because I was sick. I overdid it yesterday.”
-Ah… I’m sorry. Are you feeling better?
“Yes. So-so.”
After some exercise and rest, I’m almost recovered now.
As expected, being young is good.
“But what’s going on? You’re making so many missed calls.”
I expected a comment like, ‘I miss you,’ but surprisingly, a business-like conversation came out first.
-I’m contacting you because I have something important to tell you. We need to form a full-fledged team of 7, and I’d like to hear your opinion.
When a guild originally operates a team, several members, in addition to superhumans, move together.
The filming crew, medical team, and equipment support team all go to the scene together.
An operator who resides in the headquarters operation control room and reports the situation.
Even a secretary in charge of team schedules and paperwork.
The influence of these members’ skills on the team’s performance was by no means small.
-The field team has already been formed, and a secretary, operator, and team leader’s personal driver have been newly recruited. I have quite a few resumes, so would you like to look at them and select them yourself?
Guild-related jobs always had a lot of applicants because they promised fairly high salaries.
“How many applicants are there?”
-When I checked earlier, there were about 300 people in total… It will probably continue to increase.
I had absolutely no desire to go through 300 resumes one by one.
“Please choose good people.”
-Yes. If there are no problems, everyone will be hired within three days.
“Three days? That fast?”
Baek Young-hee said in a playful voice.
-That way, I can use the team leader a lot, right?
“I plan to comply with the working hours written in the contract, right?”
-Hey. Of course I’m joking~.
Baek Young-hee’s voice had a slightly nasal tone.
Anyway, whenever I get a chance, I show off.
“Do you have any other business besides that?”
-There are many. I have to explain about the snail carcass I caught yesterday, and I have a team leader meeting coming up soon, and the interior of Team 7’s office…
Then Baek Young-hee continued to speak slyly.
-But I’m a bit busy right now because I have other things to do. How about we talk about it over dinner later?
It may also be an ability to naturally create a number like this and call it out separately.
Of course, I had no intention of meeting Baek Young-hee in person.
“Just call me. If you’re busy, text me instead.”
-···He’s a total ironclad. Okay. Then I’ll send you the rest via message. Is there anything else you need?
At that moment, a face I had seen yesterday came to my mind.
“Oh, there’s a superhuman I’d like to recruit to the team. Could you contact him first?”
-Yes. Who are you?
“Manager, you probably saw it on video last time.”
-···Me?
Baek Young-hee showed interest in what I said.
Of course you’ve seen the face.
But you never know who it might be.
-I can’t even imagine it…
I said with a grin.
“Wang Gu-ho. He’s a guy who would make a useful tank.”
Wang Guho.
The Black Hound Guild’s quirky tank.
I was thinking of bringing him in as a second member of the team.
