chapter 609
609 – Side story) Family (complete)
One.
Detox ability given to Sylvian’s special cold udon.
The effect of this was clear.
ㅡuuu… … !
Suddenly, a bright light surrounds my entire body.
A bright and dazzling light like dawn.
I’ve only had one bite,
The detox effect takes effect immediately.
A feeling of relief that is difficult to explain in words rises from the bottom of my chest along with a warm light. It feels like the gentle warm air is caressing and embracing your entire body from head to toe.
First impression was that the food was cold,
The inside was warmer than anything else.
I feel like I can feel the sincerity and effort put into the special cold udon with my whole body.
“Ji-Jihoon’s body… … ?!”
“Oh oh! “Is it worth it to stay up all night researching?!”
Jeon So-rim and Sylvian, who were watching me like this, exclaim simultaneously. I think you can tell whether it was a success or not just by looking at the reactions of these two.
‘My body is really returning to its original state… … ?’
While I was thinking like that.
ㅡWhaaah!
The halo of light surrounding the body radiates once more. So much so that it blinded everyone for a moment.
“… Huh?”
ㅡShuuuk… … !
When the dazzling light stopped shining… … .
“How can this be? “You really came back, right?”
I see my reflection in the mirror.
Familiar faces and bodies appear on the table.
Due to the influence of Dragon Heart, his physique and height have become much stronger than before. And he has masculine facial features that are far from his youthful image.
In the mirror, I could no longer see the small and delicate child. He had the appearance of a sturdy adult, so tight that even the loose clothes he was wearing were torn.
“Seo, success! Bringing back the beginning with my own power… … ?!”
“okay! This is the Jihoon I knew… ! But can your body come back with just real food? It’s really amazing… … .”
“Congratulations on returning to your original form, Sicho!”
“Yes, that’s right! Anyway, I’m really glad!”
Sylvian and Jeon So-rim are happier than me.
-Come on!
They run into my arms without even knowing who goes first. I embrace my body with all my might so that we can all enjoy the joy.
“Puh-huh, when does everyone say they like it because it’s cute when they look younger…” … .”
“Of course, I like the cute little Jihoon! “I like this version because it’s more manly!”
“Hmm, you know something. I agree! Now that my chest has expanded, I can hold two wives at the same time. How great is that?!”
“Everyone… … .”
The faces of those women who felt like older sisters are now visible beneath my gaze.
They are both correct.
As expected, this part is manly and good.
It was a moment when it was difficult for me to embrace everyone with my child’s body because my physical strength and capacity were small.
Well, I never wanted rejuvenation in the first place… … .
“Thank you everyone for your concern. Especially to you, Sylvian.”
“No, Sicho. “It might not have been possible without Sorim’s soybean paste.”
“Uh, sister… … .”
“Thank you so much everyone.”
ㅡKkoook!
What does it matter whose credit it is? I just hugged my girls as hard as I could without saying a word.
“”… … .””
We hugged each other for a while and shared joy and relief.
For quite some time.
“… Oh, that’s right. Come to think of it, Sylvian?”
“hmm? Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
Meanwhile, Jeon So-rim is the first to open her mouth.
She turns her gaze to Sylvian.
As if something important that I had forgotten came to mind.
“Your sister made me meet my grandmother in my dream at dawn, right? Not only to me but to my entire family… … !”
“hmm? Oh, that’s right. It was like that. “But you don’t have to thank me.”
“yes? “Why?”
“I actually asked Derke for that. “To be exact, it is the power of the Death Clan that can manipulate souls.”
“Oh? Me, really? Or rather, Derke was a member of the Death clan?”
“okay. Could it be that you didn’t know about it all this time?”
“Yes, not at all. With that cute appearance, they belong to the clan of death… ? Ah, so it’s for death…? … ?”
“Hahaha, is that how it works if you express it in Earth’s language?”
Jeon So-rim and Sylvian are in my arms, and a wonderful story blossoms.
While listening to their stories, one question came to mind.
“Wait a minute, Sylvian. So does that mean Derke also came to Earth again?”
“Yes. “There was no choice for Shaolin to capture and hold the grandmother’s soul.”
“Then where is Derke now? “If it was his personality, he wouldn’t have gone back right away, right?”
“Oh, that’s it… … . Derke is also about to give birth soon.”
“… what?”
Unexpected news that comes out of nowhere.
“I wanted to come and see the original face if possible, but I was told that I had no choice but to return straight away because my health was not improving. “The principal also has his wits about me.”
“yes? Well, Derke is already giving birth… … ?”
“Giving birth this quickly? No, it’s not fast… … ?”
It must have been a while since I stayed at the academy.
I had heard from Schnelia that they couldn’t guess the expected date of birth because they were going back and forth between Earth and the Drango Continent by crossing portals, but suddenly the due date was imminent?
I wake up to this completely unexpected news. At the same time, I feel sorry.
Although he stopped by the academy to get his face stamped, it was true that he could not protect Derke during that time.
Moreover, not only Derke but also other women were pregnant. When I think of other pregnant women, I want to go back to the academy.
“The beginning? “It looks like you’re worried about Derke, right?”
“Of course. “I didn’t know it was like that.”
“If that’s the case, don’t worry too much. “Because the other wives are taking good care of him instead of Sicho.”
“That’s true, but… … .”
“After hearing this, it’s not the time to be like this! “I have to hurry up and tell everyone about this good news!”
“Sylvian… … ?”
Sylvian suddenly wakes up. Like a wind dragon that does not stay in one place for a long time, it moves its body while thinking of its next destination.
“From the beginning, go about your business with a relaxed mind. “I’ll just tell you the news and come back soon.”
“You’re right, sister. “Jihoon, you didn’t come back to Earth for no reason, right?”
“Shaolin… … .”
“I’m going to go back now too. I think I’ve been away for too long. “Would you like to see me again with my parents later in the evening?”
“Oh yeah.”
I think Sorim is right.
It can’t be like this forever.
I think this is enough to ease the worries about my body returning.
You can’t just stay in the corner of your room forever. First of all, I will finish my work and see.

2.
Incheon International Airport in the late evening.
I came out to greet my parents.
Alone with no one by my side.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been out and about alone like this.
ㅡJiiiiing!
Just then, the entry gate opens and people appear, dragging suitcases.
“Oh, he’s coming out there.”
Was it because the body’s functions returned?
I feel like my five senses have become clear again.
I can see the faces of my parents walking out from afar at a glance.
A middle-aged gentleman wearing square-rimmed glasses and a young-looking woman who does not look like she is in her 50s slowly walk out, looking around.
“mother! father!”
I ran out before my parents even recognized my face. Screaming so loudly that it seemed a bit presumptuous.
I was so happy to see that happen.
Because it was the family I wanted to see so much.
For my parents, it may have been only about 3 weeks away, but for me, it was a reunion after almost 2 years.
Was it because of that? I feel a greater sense of longing than when I went on 100-day military leave.
“oh? “What happened to this guy who was talking about mom and dad all of a sudden?”
“Jihoon, did you eat something wrong today?”
I ran up to him and hugged him,
As expected, the parents’ reaction was flat.
Just like my mother said, I wonder why this is happening all of a sudden.
Because all this time, she was a blunt son who had no affection for her.
“… Did you have a good time? Please give me your luggage. “I will listen to you.”
I swallowed the words that I barely missed and packed my bags.
Part of me wanted to ramble on about what had happened, but it seemed obvious that it would be treated as nonsense right now. I’ll have a chance to talk to you later.
“Hehe, that guy… … . “Did you grow up even though we couldn’t see each other?”
“My son has become a lot more dependable while we haven’t seen him, huh? “Have you been exercising?”
“Jihoon, have you by any chance forgotten all the money you saved up? “Are you saying that because you need pocket money?”
“Hmm, it’s not like that.”
“Even if you pretend not to be like that and act cute, I won’t have any pocket money to give you. The guy who didn’t even give me a gift for my wedding anniversary… … .”
As soon as they reunite, a playful conversation breaks out. The warmth of family that I haven’t felt in a long time gives me a sense of security.
“… By the way, are you going to the funeral right away?”
“Well, I guess so. “That’s why I returned home sooner than expected.”
“Jihoon, did you go and say hello first?”
“No, I waited to go with you. Anyway, come this way. “Because I reserved a taxi.”
***
The funeral condolence greetings didn’t take that long.
All I did was bow politely and have a quiet chat with Sorim’s family. Half of the stories were about my relationship with Sorim… … .
The conversation was mainly half-joking about when would be a good time to schedule a meeting and wedding.
‘It’s a wedding… … . Well, we should gradually establish ourselves on Earth. There is also Shaolin and Hani.’
The condolence greeting ended briefly in such a friendly atmosphere.
Since the place was a funeral, we couldn’t just laugh and chat.
In addition, my parents were tired from a long overseas trip, so they couldn’t stay for very long. We decided to see each other again later and took my parents to our house near the hospital.
In fact, rather than inviting me, I came because my parents said they wanted to stop by for the first time in a long time. Are you saying you want to see how your son is doing after a long time or something?
-Chuck!
Anyway, I was able to return home with my parents late at night.
“What is this thing about this family? “Wow, the smell.”
“Jihoon, what on earth did you make? “The smell of soy sauce and soybean paste wafts through the house?”
“ha ha ha… … . I was told to ventilate it… … .”
As soon as you enter the house, your parents start nagging you. In the past, I would have said not to worry and would have been bothered, but now even this sounds familiar.
“Ugh, I thought you might have grown up a little bit, but then you guessed it.”
“No matter how much of a man you are, you should organize your life a bit.”
“A lot happened today… … . “I’ll sort it out right away!”
“done. Maybe more inside the room? “Aren’t you supposed to have started a house with Sorim?”
My father pulls the doorknob of the room while nagging playfully.
“Huh, huh… … ?!”
ㅡSharp!
As soon as my father opens the door to the room, he sits down. The smile on my face had already disappeared.
“H-honey?!”
“father? Why are you suddenly like that?”
ㅡKkieeeeek… … !
When the door was fully opened, my mother and I could no longer speak. That’s right… … .
“… “You’re really back to your normal self, honey!”
“Uncle, we’re here!”
“White-dung-ah~!!!”
“Yong-in… no, Ji-hoon… … !”
“I missed you, teacher!”
“Teacher~! Are you really back to normal?”
“Beginning! “I brought everyone-!”
Dragons were building a nest in one corner of my room. And most of them are pregnant.
“Ji, Jihoon..! Me, me, what about those foreign wives… … ?”
“Who are you all? Our Jihoon said your name…” … ?”
“Oh, so that’s… … .”
I can’t think of anything to say in such a sudden situation. It was a time when I was thinking about where to start explaining.
“Oh, it’s really grandfather and grandmother-?!”
-Oh do do do do do!
Somi jumps out from among the wives.
ㅡJump… !
The boy runs to his father, who has fallen down, and hugs him.
“grandfather! grandma! Somi finally has grandparents!”
“What what..? “You call me your grandfather?”
“you you..! Even a child… ?!”
“Just by looking at it, it doesn’t look like he is the child I had with So-rim… … !”
“Tsk, I tried to speak slowly… … .”
There’s nothing I can do when it’s like this.
I have no choice but to reveal everything here.
You can’t hide it from your family for the rest of your life.
“… that’s right. “This is my daughter Somi.”
“”
──!?!?””
My mother and father completely froze at my sudden declaration.
But it’s still too early to be surprised.
“Oppa..?! “Death Yong, who didn’t want to see Derke-?!”
“Oh, Derke?”
Derke appears for the last time among his wives.
“But Derke… can you believe that?”
“That’s right! “My brother’s egg, Death Dragon!”
“Yes, humans lay eggs… … ?”
“Oh my god… … !”
ㅡFull!
My parents collapsed after seeing Derke holding an egg the size of a human body.
I was so shocked that I fainted.
I guess I couldn’t hold my mind any longer in a situation that was more unrealistic than the morning drama.
“Ahahaha… … . I thought it was over… … .”
I think this will be noisy for some time to come.
Maybe your journey on Earth begins now.
