The Side Story (Complete)
The Side Story (Complete)
Graduation.
I didn’t go to school often because there was a warrior party at home.
I only filled the minimum school days for graduation.
School was like a bedroom for me.
“I couldn’t go to school because of you.”
“Lies! It’s just that you didn’t want to go! Don’t blame us!”
“For real, I wanted to go to school.”
“Lies!”
“I got caught.
Luna I’m not fooling you, now you know me well.
In fact, it is a lie.
I didn’t want to go to school.
The reason was because I thought it was just a waste of time.
‘Study is all you need to do is build up basic knowledge through textbooks. I have no intention of going to college.’
And the important thing.
Because sleeping at home is better than sleeping at school.
It is said that going to school and sleeping is not efficient.
“Well, I’m glad I graduated.”
Hare nodded beside me.
“Yes, I will. It would have been a big deal if I didn’t attend for one day… Well done, mister… “
Hare stroked my hair as if I was proud.
Somehow, it was like pretending to be my parents who came to the graduation ceremony.
‘Now… It’s okay to say that instead of my parents.’
Now that the principal’s training and the graduation ceremony are over.
Students gathered in groups of twos and threes to take graduation photos with their friends.
I didn’t go to school much, so of course I don’t have any friends.
There was a warriors party instead, so I wasn’t lonely…
“But you… “
“Why, Mister!”
“It stands out too much as a human being.”
A warrior party that catches the eyes of graduating students and parents with just one appearance.
Is it because of the unique atmosphere that comes out along with the exotic appearance?
Students couldn’t focus on their graduation photos.
“My graduation picture is being eaten!”
“N, my son shouldn’t come out like this… ! Bo, I need to make amends!”
A clamor erupted from everywhere.
I gathered a party of warriors to my side.
“Let’s take a picture quickly and leave.”
“Yes, the stares I feel are unpleasant, so I think it would be better to leave quickly.”
“I agree!”
Saten and Estiya wanted to leave this crowded graduation ceremony quickly.
But we had a problem.
“By the way, who takes the picture?”
One person cannot attend this graduation ceremony.
There are too many people to take a selfie, so it doesn’t fit properly.
‘I should have brought a tripod… ‘
Is it inevitable that one person has to be excluded?
“Because he is a warrior. Luna you… “
“Don’t call me a hero only at times like this!”
Luna immediately refused.
I don’t have any friends, so it’s a bit difficult to ask someone else.
However, at that moment.
“Shall I take a picture for you?”
A guy who knows my face and knows the face of the warrior party has appeared.
“Lee Min-chae.”
A woman who seems to have liked me.
She took the phone from my hand and posed in the distance.
“I’m going to take a picture, so get ready quickly.”
At that voice, the warrior party clung to me.
“My seat is next to you! Move!”
“I will never step out of my way… “
“You fight needlessly, and you really can’t relax. I don’t fight with you because it’s childish.”
“I want to go to the side! Me!”
Luna and Hare try to defend the seats next to them.
Saten fell behind while watching leisurely.
Estiya jumps around excitedly.
With the sound of Lee Min-chae shouting 3, 2, 1.
Click-
Me and the warrior party were all captured in the photo.
Originally, there would be no parents and no photos.
“Look! Did I come out pretty!?”
“… You closed your eyes, Mr. Lee Min-chae. Do you want to fight me… ?”
“Oh no! A mistake, a mistake!”
I was protesting something to Lee Min-chae after seeing the picture.
Once again, I felt grateful to them.
I took off the warrior party that was pressuring Lee Min-chae.
“Stop it, you guys are scary.”
“Ah, mister! Are you taking the side of another woman now!? You flirt!”
“… That, that’s the wind, mister. I was supposed to get married, but is it already an affair?”
“What is the standard of wind, you guys?”
I sighed and looked at Lee Min-chae.
She was embarrassed, but at the same time smiling at the situation.
“After graduation, marriage… Congratulations! Who do you do it with? Hare?”
At times like this, you should be honest.
“No, go with those four.”
“… Uh?”
“That’s it.”
“… “
Lee Min-chae did not answer.
No, it would have been more accurate to say that she couldn’t answer.
As she listened to my answer, she put on a somewhat dazed expression.
It must be an answer that is hard to believe in Korea in the 21st century.
‘But what can I do… ‘
It’s true.
I am destined to marry everyone in the warrior party.
Lee Min-chae made an expression of disapproval, but she tried her best to understand us and clapped her hands.
“Chu, congratulations… Married to 4 people… Wow… “
“… Ok, thanks.”
It was strange to answer because the atmosphere was strange.
Still, the last day of school.
Graduation ceremony.
Me and the warriors party ended successfully, and we left memories together with photos.
This is all thanks to someone’s blessing.
“Congratulations… Is this correct?”
Feels like you forgot something.
No, I felt like I had to find something.
However, until the wedding begins.
I couldn’t find the answer.
***
The wedding was held in Korea.
If you ask me how I was able to get married in Korea with 4 people.
We had to use a method that minimizes people’s eyes and proceeds as small as possible so that rumors do not spread.
“The view is nice.”
A vast meadow with bright flower fields.
And the white church where our marriage begins.
Our wedding ceremony is held in a place where not many people can reach.
I finally asked the warrior party.
“Are you okay with a wedding like this? It’s a simple wedding, not fancy.”
At that question, Luna shouted in anger.
“What’s important is that it’s gorgeous! Getting married doesn’t matter! I am satisfied!”
Hare answered calmly, hiding the insidiousness in her heart.
“I-I like anything… If I could marry my uncle… I-I’m fine… “
There are many meanings in the words “I like you” And “I’m okay”.
Perhaps because he is a thief, Hare has become very insidious after coming to this world.
Anyway.
Saten answered my question coolly.
“After all, marriage is a procedure. I prefer to keep it simple. In the first place, it’s not like we were married. Right, mister?”
“I don’t think so.”
If you still go ahead with the wedding ceremony and get married in front of other people.
The meaning will come to you differently.
Finally, Estiya shouted about marriage.
“I love marriage! Even better at church!”
“Are you a saint?”
“Right! After all, what does my brother know!”
Theory of all things saints following the theory of warriors of all things.
No matter how you think about it, there were many similarities between Luna and Estiya.
Listen to all the answers from the warrior party like that.
I made up my mind and shouted confidently.
“Go ahead and wait.”
“Yes!”
“Yes… “
“Yes.”
“Yes!”
A party of warriors who respond in their own way.
“Luna.”
Starting with Luna.
The warriors party started walking down the wedding carpet.
The sunlight has come down and Luna shines brighter today.
Unlike her usual liveliness, her modesty was evident.
That must mean that you are concentrating on the wedding today.
“Hare.”
Hare walked lightly and silently.
She seemed to be in a good mood today, with a controlled gait.
I hope that restraint will not be broken throughout the married life.
I prayed inwardly.
“Saten.”
As expected, Saten came from an aristocratic family.
She took a graceful and skillful step.
Perhaps because she was the only one wearing a black dress, the contrast with the white color exudes elegance.
It was very beautiful.
“Estiya.”
To be honest, Estiya was most worried.
She’s a free spirit with a personality that doesn’t fit the rules.
However, Estiya must have endured a lot for today’s work.
Unlike usual, her eyes were not sleepy, but she had eyes full of intelligence.
According to the warrior party, she said that in the old days she was smart sometimes.
Today seemed like the day.
And, finally.
“Lee Jun-woo.”
With the host’s voice calling my name.
I followed the wedding carpet they walked on first.
Remembering each step.
Engraving today’s events into your memory.
I walked along the path they had made.
Then, four brides were waiting for me in front of me.
We walked the same path together, from now on we will walk together.
Everyone in the warrior party and I met eyes.
I naturally spit out the words that came to mind.
“Thank you. I was happy to have you guys.”
“I didn’t do it, mister!”
“… I am happy to have you guys.”
With those words.
We gathered in one place and became wife and husband.
Four wives and one husband.
A party of warriors and their master, wearing a ring on their ring finger.
“I love you, kids.”
Last page.
The end of the warrior party.
It was recorded in the library and organized into one piece.
***
After marrying the warrior party.
I opened a restaurant in Seoul.
It’s called a restaurant, but it’s just a simple snack bar.
If you ask why it is a snack bar…
‘Too many menus are a bit different. Too much work is annoying.’
I have to take care of children.
I can’t cook food that requires a lot of hands.
So, I chose a snack bar that requires less work.
Although Luna sometimes comes out to help with my work.
Most of them lie at home and take care of babies.
‘Still, I’m doing what my mother said.’
It doesn’t matter.
Hare is by my side almost every day and helps me with my work.
Sometimes I bring in a baby and work as if I have two bodies.
I once asked this question.
‘If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better to just stay at home with the baby?’
Hare replied with a serious expression.
‘You can’t see Mr. No, honey… ‘
Hare always watches over me.
Still, she said she was happy.
I had no complaints.
If I had to pick one, would it be Saten’s cry for a snack bar franchise?
‘Hero Tteokbokki has business potential. Hide the fact that the warrior party is a married woman and run a tteokbokki restaurant. The students will go on a rampage.’
Of course I refused.
Saten was constantly looking for items to advance into her business.
She is in the present day, while she continues to study magic.
‘Because those idiots had children before me. I will give birth later. I don’t want to give birth at the same time. My son is a genius, of course.’
Preferring pregnancy for the time being.
I’m having fun, so there was no particular problem.
The last is Estiya.
She still sleeps without me.
Still, unlike before, it has improved a lot.
Cut down the amount of time you sleep, and do not continue to sleep.
If there is a job to take care of the children, I will do it first and sleep.
‘Estiya continues to grow!’
Estiya never stops.
She was getting better.
By the way.
‘Something… ‘
Something.
I’ve been feeling strange lately.
Should I say the feeling of being chased by something unknown?
No, should I say the world is strange?
“… Here it is again.”
I ran out of ingredients for a while and left the snack bar to get them.
Looking around her alley, there is a strange door I saw yesterday.
It’s not a door that should be in this location, and the material is different.
‘There are strange patterns… My head hurts just looking at it… ‘
What the hell is this door?
Why are you following me and asking me to open it?
Isn’t it a trap of the resurrected demon king in the yard where there is also a party of warriors?
Such doubt arises.
However, you cannot turn away from the door that is chasing you forever.
“… Shall we open it?”
If something big happens, the party of warriors will come to the rescue.
It’s a comfortable idea, though.
I trust and believe in the warrior party that much.
“Ah, I don’t know. You have to get down to make money.”
Isn’t that good?
Kiki-
I cautiously opened the strange door in the alley.
When I opened the door, there was a wooden staircase.
No matter how you look at the space above it…
“It’s a library.”
That’s also a huge library.
The nostalgic scent and smell of books fills the nose.
I was in charge of a lot.
A place that is not in the memory but the body remembers.
I slowly climbed the stairs and walked as my body told me.
And-
“This is it. A place that kept popping up in my memory.”
I reunited with them.
Finally.
It seemed that the library no longer needed my records.
Now I just have to see it with my own eyes.
