< I don't want to go to work >
The three days passed faster than I thought.
During the three days of vacation the guild gave me, quite a few things happened.
First, the deposit for me and the kid came in.
15 billion won that came into my account.
The first thing I bought with that money was land.
First, I bought about 10,000 pyeong of land around the tent I’m currently living in.
Since it was land beyond the restricted area that could be reclaimed at any time, it could be purchased at a fairly cheap price.
The original landowner I met at the real estate agency looked puzzled as he sold me his land.
“What are you going to do with this place?”
I didn’t hide my true feelings.
Because I knew you wouldn’t believe me anyway.
“It’s an investment for the future. Who knows, this area might be developed soon?”
The original landowner responded to my words with a tone that secretly mocked me.
“Oh really? Well, no one knows what the future holds···.”
I don’t know.
I knew better than anyone else the value of the land I bought.
A region that is ranked quite low in the government’s
In short, it was a land that would be left abandoned for at least ten years.
If the gate connecting to the continent of Gaia had not opened.
I smiled brightly and nodded.
“That’s right. No one knows what will happen in the future.”
Except me, of course.
In a few years, when the land I bought has increased in value by hundreds of times, this person will remember today’s event for a long time and beat the ground.
Anyway, as of yesterday, the land around here was my private property, and whatever I did with it was my own business.
So what did you do?
“Hwaaam~”
I yawned deeply and called out to Sirutteok, who had been busy since morning.
“Shiru-tteok. If it’s hard, take a break and then do it again.”
Sirutteok, who was moving a log while sweating profusely, answered loudly.
“I’m okay, bro!”
Dude. You’re feeling good this morning.
I was lying in the hammock and watching the sirutteok being made.
So two days ago, I came back from buying land and was eating dinner.
“I’m tired of living in a tent all the time. How about building a log cabin?”
That was the starting point.
Sirutteok raised his hand when he heard that story.
“Leave it to me, brother! I’ve been working on construction sites for three years!”
“When did you work in the kitchen?”
Sirutteok said with a confident face.
“3 years working at a construction site, 3 years working as a kitchen assistant, 2 years working at a cleaning company. I’ve had a hard life since I was young, so there’s nothing I haven’t done, hyung!”
“···What are those innate servant-like specs?”
“Hehehe. Thank you.”
“I didn’t ask you to be thankful···.”
Anyway, Sirutteok has been building a log cabin next to the tent since yesterday.
All I did was cut down some trees nearby and clear away some rocks, and Sirutteok took care of the rest.
Although the frame has been set up, Sirutteok is quickly building a log house.
I sat at the table next to the hammock and read the comic books I had bought yesterday whenever I was bored.
“If it’s hard, take your time. I won’t criticize you for doing it late.”
“Haha! It’s not hard at all!”
Of course, I also knew that it wasn’t because Sirutteok was kind that he did that.
They do that because they want something.
I said, glancing at the sirutteok.
“Isn’t it really hard?”
Sirutteok looked back at me, sweating profusely.
“It’s not difficult at all and it’s fun!”
“Really? Then bring me a drink.”
“···Yes! Brother!”
That kid just clenched his fist?
After a while, I took a sip of the drink that Sirutteok had brought me – I checked and he hadn’t spit – and looked at the little boy next to me.
“Cool···.”
Next to me was another small hammock, where a little boy was sleeping, his belly bulging from breakfast.
“This guy. He seems to be getting a little dangerous…”
Although surprisingly slim considering how much he eats, the little guy’s cheeks have gotten quite chubby since we first met.
Should I go on a diet?
I suddenly had that thought and decided to just leave it alone.
They’ll figure it out later. If you don’t let them eat what they want when they’re young, their personality will only get worse.

“Hwaaam~.”
I yawned and stretched out.
The breeze was cool and the hammock swayed pleasantly from side to side.
I threw the comic book I was reading on the table, closed my eyes, and enjoyed this sweet relaxation.
When I retire, will I be able to live like this for the rest of my life?
“Hehehe.”
Just thinking about it makes me feel good.
***
“Brother! Lunch is ready.”
“Hmm···.”
I must have dozed off for a moment.
When I opened my eyes, Sirutteok was serving food on an outdoor table.
On the table were soybean paste stew, bossam, and a few freshly marinated vegetables.
I’ve seen it several times already, but I still can’t get used to it.
“······.”
As I stared at the table in silence, Sirutteok scratched the back of his head and spoke.
“I’m sorry, brother. There weren’t many ingredients left… I just made a hasty meal with what I had.”
“···It’s not bad for something like that.”
Actually, it’s not that bad.
I used to spin the free raffle ticket that was given every time I logged into the mobile game, and it felt like I got a 4-star character from it.
I shook Lily awake, who was still sleeping soundly in the hammock.
“Hey, kid. Let’s eat.”
At the sound of ‘food’, the little boy’s ears twitched, and he raised his upper body like a zombie.
And a nose that sniffs and smells.
The moment the analysis was over, the little boy opened his eyes wide.
“rice!”
I grabbed the scruff of the neck of the little boy who was about to run straight to the table.
“Go and wash your hands before you eat.”
The pouting little boy came back after washing his hands, and before I could tell him to dry them, he created a spark and dried them clean.
···You seem like a scary little kid.
We started having lunch.
Since the sirutteok arrived three days ago, the quality of my meals has improved dramatically.
The little one was more pleased with that fact than anyone else.
The little boy praised the sirutteok in the broken Korean he had just begun to learn.
“Shiru-tteok. Make rice well. I like it.”
That’s all I’ll do. He pointed at me with his finger and whispered in Sirutteok’s ear.
“Sir, I can’t eat.”
I can hear everything you f*cking punk.
“Ah, yes···.”
Sirutteok watched me closely, not knowing how to react.
To lighten the awkward atmosphere, I spoke to Sirutteok.
“Hey. Sirutteok.”
“Yes, brother!”
“How are your family relationships?”
At that moment, Sirutteok’s eyes turned red.
“My parents passed away when I was young, and I have two younger siblings, one in middle school and one in elementary school. I’m sure they’re waiting for news of me by now…”
The twists and turns of the life story of the sirutteok unfolded on the dining table.
I lost my parents at a young age, and those days when I had to do whatever it took to take care of my two younger siblings. I wanted to live honestly, but the world was cruel, and I had no choice but to take the path of darkness…
Before he knew it, tears were welling up in Sirutteok’s eyes.
“Brother! I’m really reflecting on my actions. If I were given another chance, I’d be confident that I could live honestly…”
Taang!
When I hit the table with my spoon, the surprised sirutteok looked at me.
“hey.”
“···Yes, brother.”
I said with a mixture of annoyance and frustration.
“Do I look like someone you would let go of because you feel sorry for them?”
“Huh? That’s not what I meant, I just···.”
A look of embarrassment appeared on Sirutteok’s face as his true intentions were revealed.
I said with a snicker.
“Do I look like a brat to you? Do you think I’ll let you go if I pretend to be kind and pitiful?”
“Oh, no···.”
My physical age is 20 now, but inside I am a middle-aged man who has been through a lot.
I have been scammed in my life, been stabbed in the back by a friend, and experienced both the bitter and sweet sides of life.
If you were hoping to gain sympathy from me for working on this for only three days, you were very mistaken.
You could bet money that guy doesn’t have any younger siblings.
“I don’t care how you lived. I don’t care how you live in the future.”
“······.”
Sirutteok’s expression hardened like a stone.
I kept talking.
“Three years. Until then, you won’t be able to get out of here. And I won’t lift the ban either.”
3 years. It was time to finalize my retirement plan.
At that time, it didn’t matter where this guy went or what he said.
“Three years···.”
Sirutteok’s face was filled with despair.
The boy lowered his head and sobbed.
“Then I… should I continue to live as a eunuch until then?”
Goja.
Yes, I made Sirutteok impotent.
It was done by using acupuncture to stop the blood flow there, but it was absolutely impossible to solve unless you knew martial arts.
That’s why sirutteok can’t escape from me.
For a man in his prime, impotence was, in some ways, a punishment worse than death.
“Three years···. Three years···. Sob sob···.”
As a fellow man, I could feel that those tears were real.
3 years is a bit harsh.
“Ahem.”
Now that we’ve whipped him enough, it’s time to throw him the carrot.
“Okay. Then one day a month.”
“yes?”
I made a suggestion to Sirutteok, who raised his head with tears in his eyes.
“I’ll let you off the hook one day a month. And I’ll let you go to the city on that day. What do you think?”
In that moment, Sirutteok’s eyes widened.
Even if it’s just one day a month, that’s somewhere.
It was much better than not being able to use it at all for 3 years.
“Why? You don’t like it?”
Sirutteok grabbed my hand and shouted.
“No! It’s fine! Thank you, brother!”
I said, pulling my hand out of his thick grip.
“Okay. Work hard. I’ll give you a share in three years, so you can start a new life with that.”
“Yes! Thank you! Brother!”
I put my hand on the guy’s shoulder and said seriously.
“If you run away or betray before then, you will die.”
“Of course, bro!”
“I’m not just saying that.”
I shot a shot of life into the sirutteok.
Ssssssssut.
The sharp, refined murderous intent squeezed Sirutteok’s entire body, rendering him unable to move.
“I guarantee you that I will kill you in the most brutal way I know. If you can handle it, run away.”
The rice cake, unable to bear my life, trembled.
“Yes, yes···.”
That’s when Lily kicked my shin hard and screamed.
“Don’t do it! Don’t bother Sirutteok!”
It didn’t hurt at all, but the little kid broke the mood we had worked so hard to create.
I glared at the kid.
“Little kid. If you run away from Sirutteok, you’ll think it’s all your fault.”
Lily snorted at my words.
“Don’t run away, Sirutteok! Because you’re good at cooking!”
I don’t know what the logic is, but I decided to just let it be.
By the time I finished lunch, it was already past 2pm.
“It’s already time···.”
I was told to come to work at my convenience today, but if I go any later I’ll probably get scolded.
I sighed and got up from my seat.
“Kid. Let’s go make some money.”
The little one, who was probably planning to go back to the hammock and lie down as soon as he finished lunch, looked at me with an extremely annoyed expression.
“It’s annoying···.”
I deeply sympathize with you, but I couldn’t help it today.
I lifted the scruffy brat’s neck and looked back at the rice cake.
“Then take good care of the house.”
“Yes! Brother! Take care on your way back!”
We went to work at the guild, greeted by Sirutteok with bright faces.
“Sigh. I don’t want to go to work···.”
Five minutes into my journey, I felt like lying in my hammock again.
