chapter 22
22 – Episode 19: His drinking is a problem…
To be honest, until I fell into the wilderness, I still had some illusions about another world.
However, now, categorically, there is not a single one left.
Facing the ugly reality that I didn’t want to know, let alone fantasy, I desperately needed a can of beer after work and the happiness of writing in the community.
But what’s even more frustrating is that the hardships so far have made me fall in love, but the adventure hasn’t even begun.
What can I do though?
I will try to start from now.
We are powerless, but nothing is solved unless we start.
f*ck i’m going home
***
Around three days after the High Elf Union’s large-scale capture of Kamp, most of the Dark Elves voluntarily surrendered and surrendered obediently.
A few remnants remained and resisted, but they quickly faded away as they were pushed back.
I put my hand through the bars toward the dark elf chief imprisoned with a cloth bandage wrapped around his head, grabbing his collar and shaking it.
“Hey, you f*cking bitch! Where the f*ck is my 3 gold!”
this f*cking place.
I want to leave right now, but I had to find the money and equipment that were confiscated when I was kidnapped here.
We were able to get the weapons and equipment back from the village’s common warehouse, but the money we had was gone.
“under! Terune…”
“f*ck Terun and spit money you motherf*cking bitch!”
“I thought you were using your brain, but you’re stupid like a human being, and the money has already contributed to the development of the village. Ah, since you guys destroyed that village, it must have disappeared into the air. What should I do?”
The former Dark Elf Chief, who was laughing at me with a confident expression, shrugged.
“Lee, this f*ck!”
The high elf soldiers barely stopped me from trying to recklessly storm into the prison and began to calm me down.
“Let go f*ck!!! That f*cking frame will be defeated! ”
A roar filled with deep rage echoed through the village before Kevin’s party and the high elf soldiers pulled me out of the vicinity of the prison.
…
“Life sucks, really…”
It was a night that desperately wanted to depend on alcohol.
At least, I wanted to light a cigarette, which I didn’t like very much.
I was skeptical about life to that extent.
“Don’t be too discouraged, Joo Hyuk. Sometimes you have money and sometimes you don’t. The important thing is to have a big mindset like a great country that looks farther than that.”
“Shoot to be scared of something like this.
While I was sitting in front of a bonfire with a gloomy expression, they suddenly came to my side and started to comfort me.
Perhaps… consolation would be right.
But do they know?
The meaning of those three golds.
It was the amount obtained by barely smashing those crazy barbarian bitches, and it was the last hope for those of us who had fallen without any perks in this world.
It was so sad that I had to go back to the beginning and hit the d*ck.
“Hey human! Don’t be depressed like an asshole, take this! You guys too!”
Hite held a large wooden cup at me with a pitiful look on his face.
“Is this alcohol?”
“Well, it’s a bit different from the alcohol humans enjoy drinking… but maybe similar… Now, wait a minute, humans! f*ck calm down! If you drink it all at once!”
Hite gave me the answer after thinking hard about me asking the question with empty eyes.
Before she could even finish her words, I almost snatched the cup from her hand and emptied the contents in one go.
Normally, I wouldn’t drink enough to get drunk, but today I wanted to get drunk quickly and get rid of this miserable feeling.
“Not enough… more…”
What kind of guy’s alcohol is so weak?
I didn’t have the guts to empty a glass and drink it, which is similar to carbonated water with a slightly tangy taste from the sour taste of plain water.
“I’m sorry Kyoko, Rin. Just give me today.”
I also began to empty the drinking glasses placed in front of them without hesitation. Hite was frightened by that appearance and stamped his feet.
Unaware of that, I drank all of their alcohol, and only then did I begin to feel a little drunk.
“Sir, f*ck I don’t know… so much dew on the World Tree…”
Hite muttered in a trembling voice.
It’s true that I drank too much all at once, but I don’t think I drank to such an extent that I was afraid.
I couldn’t understand Hait’s behavior.
“uh…?”
At that moment, my eyes suddenly turned.
Along with the tinnitus, I felt something snapping in my head, and soon I hung my head.
…
Silence passed between the four of them for a while.
“You’re so weird… you goblin! How did this…”
“f*ck… that’s because you drink dew like that… hold on to humans for a second! I’ll call someone who can solve it!”
“Wait… what is that!!! Irresponsible!!!”
Kyoko asked Hite with a worried look.
Then Hite, with a clear expression of embarrassment, left the seat saying he would call someone.
Kyoko and Rin were looking at Joo Hyuk, who was lowering his head, with an anxious expression.
It was then.
Suddenly, Joo-hyeok jumped up from his seat and strode without hesitation and sat next to Kyoko.
“Eh…shit…why all of a sudden…”
When Joo-hyeok brought his face closer to Kyoko, who was taken aback by the sudden situation, Kyoko’s eyes were shaking mercilessly.
“Kyoko, what’s wrong with you? Strange… Why are you so embarrassed?”
As they looked into each other’s eyes at a close distance of not even a hand’s length, Kyoko felt that her face was about to explode.
“Oh, that’s right, Kyoko, I had something to ask you from the other day…”

Joo-hyeok, not knowing Kyoko’s condition, started asking her with a flushed face from being drunk. Kyoko couldn’t even answer whether her whole body was stiff.
“Coco, do you have any friends? I’ve been watching, but it doesn’t seem to be there.”

Joo Hyuk asked as if he was really curious.
Kyoko, who was in a state of fascination, began to answer the question in anger, as if she had finally come to her senses.
“Wh, what are you talking about! I have friends too!”
Kyoko seemed to be treating herself like an idiot and started to get angry.
“Oh… tell me…”
“that is…”
“Kyoko… I can’t hear you well. Speak louder…”
Kyoko, who was momentarily taken aback by Joo-hyeok’s request to name her friend, replied without saying anything easily.
Then, as soon as I made a big decision, I told Joo Hyuk.
“Mr. A, unknown in the community, told me he was a friend! And Mr. B…”
Not only Joo-hyeok, but even Rin looked at Kyoko with pity as she answered in a voice without confidence. Kyoko felt like an idiot even when she said it.
Kyoko covered her face with both hands and bowed her head at the sudden, unbearable shame.
“Cho, cho… choap…! what…”
“It’s okay… I’ll be your friend… Kind, kind…”

Joo-hyeok, who was giving her a pitiful look, suddenly pulled Kyoko into his arms and began to smile while stroking her head.
As if Kyoko couldn’t accept the situation at all, she even had trouble breathing.
“Joo-hyeok, you seem to be out of your mind right now… How are you going to handle the aftermath this time…”
Rin, who watched the scene, looked at Joo-hyeok as if shocked and said. To say that she had already forgotten about it after trying so hard to relieve Kyoko’s anger last time.

Joo-hyeok now had no one to worry about.
“Oh, yes, Rin was there too!”

Joo-hyeok shouted loudly when he found Rin sitting next to him with a pitiful expression on his face. Then he stretched out his arm again and this time pulled Rin into his arms.
“Wait a minute! Joo Hyuk What are you doing!”
Surprised by the sudden situation, Rin tried to escape from the arms, but Ju-hyeok held them tightly and did not let them go.
“Let’s be friends with people in the same situation…”

Joo-hyeok, who smiled and spoke with a friendly expression, had already lost control of his body.
“Stop it! Stop doing this…”
“… Cho, chop…”
At first, Rin desperately tried to escape, but her voice gradually grew smaller, and soon her movements slowed down a little bit.
“To be humiliated like this by a small country… something that cannot happen to a large country…”
She hid her flushed face with both hands so that no one could see her, and continued to mutter something in a shrill voice.
“Ah… ah…”
Kyoko was already half-conscious, unable to even use human language well and making strange noises.
“I will be with you from now on…”

Joo Hyuk smiled at the corner of his mouth in a hazy mood.
That not bad feeling was sweet enough to make me forget about the terrible slavery for a month and the painful loss of 3 gold.
The dew of the world tree must be very good wine.

Joo Hyuk thought so and enjoyed the cold night air.

Joo-hyeok, who held them in his arms and stroked their hair for a long time, lowered his head again and fell into a pleasant sleep after a long time.
Of course, without knowing the girls who blushed with shame.
It leaves the burden of responsibility to tomorrow’s self.
