150 – 24: I had doubts
The incident was over and I returned home.
2 Billion in cash was thrown straight into the bank account, and the crazy b*tch returned to her daily life, crying that the world was coming to an end and getting irritated at a nearby house, asking the crazy b*tch to go to the hospital.
Grandma Gaeddong immediately gave me 2 billion won in cash, and now in my bank account, I have the money I saved by killing ghost-level evil spirits and doing various jobs. There was 5 billion.

It’s been a while since I opened the status window or something, and I couldn’t help but smile when I saw the 5 billion won.
Isn’t this enough that Wooshin and Cheongryong can get along well even when they become adults without me?
Yes, people must have money. The store function seemed to be blocked as I said, but I didn’t care.
Now we have to buy uniforms for Wooshin and Cheongryong to send them to school.
If I want to take him to and from school, I have to get a car, but I’m not even an adult yet. Can I get a driver’s license?
If I go to the academy and take my child and start making a fuss, I promise that I will attack them and destroy everything, but I will have to happily take my child and wear a school uniform.
I couldn’t do that.
“Can’t we just come down now?”
“Sir!”
Wooshin was biting my ear with his small teeth, trying his best to express that he did not want to go to school or academy.
Even if you bite something, it’s not like you’re really biting with all your might, it’s like a dog’s bite.
It was strange that his ears were wet and his saliva somehow smelled like the sea, but I guess it was time to comfort a child who was sulking and crying and saying he didn’t want to go to the academy.
No, you’d be lucky if it could end that easily. I swallowed my nose once and opened my mouth.
“Why don’t you want to go?”
“I don’t want to be separated from the captain…….”
“It’s not uncommon for you and I to spend time apart due to work. “I’m going to pick you up after school.”
“Okay… ….”
I don’t want to fall. Although he said that, it seemed like he didn’t know the exact reason.
It is impossible to solve this problem with logic or reason when dealing with a child who is swayed by emotions that he or she cannot understand. I already know this from experience.
I’m not a proper guardian, but I never thought my experience raising children would be helpful in a place like this.
…… Now that I think about it, my younger brother is the type of person who has thrown away reason and intelligence even as an adult. What happened?
I pulled Wooshin forward, who was crying and kissing my ear, and made eye contact.
Wooshin is out of breath with tears streaming down his face. His face was a mess of anger, sadness, and fear mixed together. After seeing that face, I realized why Wooshin was crying so much.
“What’s so scary?”
“… ….”
Children usually make that kind of face when they have a fear that cannot be explained in words and comes out as an emotion rather than through reason.
It has been said that he waits for his younger brother to sort out his feelings, but would the same be true for Wooshin? I waited for Wooshin to answer, and he answered after a while.
“…… Leader. I don’t know why, but I feel like my former captain is going somewhere. I think he’s preparing to break up, not come back.
Are you getting ready to break up? I don’t know what that is. I don’t even know what breaking up means…… But I’m just as scared as I was before I met the captain. I’m so scared that I’m crying.
Do you want to break up with me…? … ?”
Hearing Wooshin’s words, I let out a sigh-like sigh. I heard that kids are sensitive to things like this. Is that true? No, it’s not just that.
Holy spirit. It was said in textbooks that these beings see things that are far different from ordinary humans, and my younger brother also said the same thing.
Because he is not just a kid, does this mean he knows more than the average kid? I think it’s time to tell a story here that I thought could be put off a little later.
“No, I don’t like it either. But I think it will happen.”
I had a bad taste in opening my mouth. I was not a good older brother or protector. It was my responsibility and I decided to take care of him, but I know I wasn’t a good guardian.
I know that if I tell the truth here, this child will be hurt. But you can’t tell a lie either. After spouting out all the truth, you can’t pass it all on to Wooshin and tell him to endure it.
No matter what I do, there seems to be no answer, so I would like to get rid of everything if I can, but what can I do?
You can throw away your life if it’s ruined, but you can’t throw away people who are within the line.
“As I said last time, I planned to live, save money, and then just die. It’s thanks to you that I no longer want to die in this world.
But…… Just like you felt. “I’m sending you to the academy because I know we’ll part ways once we’re done with everything we have to do in this world.”
Wooshin is about to cry louder at my words. I could see that a being with the power to vaporize reinforced concrete and cause abnormal weather events was frightened by my every word.
“I don’t like it…… I hate not having a captain. I want to stay with that captain forever! I will do better…… Make sure you brush your teeth properly and use chopsticks well…… I will make sure that whatever the captain wants comes true…… !”
“It’s a bit scary because what you’re saying and the way you’re spouting spiritual power don’t match.”
The previous words were words that children would say, but then Wooshin’s body, which says that he will achieve anything, emits so much spiritual power that it seems as though his body might collapse under the weight of the spiritual power.
The entire building was shaking and a creaking sound could be heard. If you have that much spiritual power, you will be able to achieve most things by force.
It is natural that they have that level of power because they are divine spirits, but so far, Wushin and Blue Dragon have not directly revealed such power except when dealing with divine-level evil spirits such as Mama.
When I asked the reason before, the reason was that it was not right for them, who were in the position of gods but could hardly do anything for people, to wield power.
He said he made that decision after talking with Blue Dragon, but the fact that Wooshin is spewing out spiritual power like that proves that he is mentally confused.
No, it’s not really a joke. Wooshin’s eyes were shaking as the temperature rose, and things like calendars and papers in the house were seen getting caught up in the heat.
The plague will burn down the house again. Thinking such a foolish thought, I pushed away the storm of spiritual power and lightly hit Wooshin’s head.
Kong, lightly bump your foreheads against each other. But the spiritual power emanating from me is so strong that I feel like my neck is slightly sprained as I force my head forward, but I hold back.
“I’m sorry. But saying I’m sorry means I’m sorry for hurting you, not that I’m sorry for thinking this.
I can’t comfort you. He’s not that good of a guy and he can’t tell lies that would be obvious to you. “It’s almost like it’s already been decided, so I’m going to say let’s do something else instead.”
“Something else…… ?”
Wooshin repeats what I say.
I saw a little bit of hope in Wooshin’s eyes, but I realized that he wasn’t just spitting out his emotions.
Children are naturally smart and cunning in their own way. A child must be this clever.
I smiled softly and opened my mouth as I felt the heat slowly subside.
“I think you understand what I want to say. Because I have a good head. So let me tell you. I am not originally from this world, I originally came here to die.
I was originally a human being who was dying. I was lucky enough to be like this, but even if I change my mind and stay in this world with you, I am still human and I will die someday.
No, actually, I’m going to die. Before. One thing I’ve learned in my life is that it’s natural to eventually break up with someone. So I will do more before I break up with the person I care about.”
“… ….”
There are many things I learned from meeting good people in my life, but we ended up breaking up for various reasons.
The elderly man who gave the children roaming the streets a place to live and food passed away from dementia.
The priest who turned a child who had been running around without knowing what he was hating on the world into a human child suddenly got into an accident.
And I met many other people. We just lived far away and couldn’t meet due to circumstances.
Even in this world, my friend became like that. To her aunt, the dog poop asked her grandmother to protect her.
I know that it would be dangerous if I met her and her aunt in person and formed a relationship, so even though I can’t talk to her, I watch her from afar.
Isn’t human life really like that? As I live, it’s hard to talk to people I’m grateful for and it’s hard to even look at them.
Because I realized something in my life, I was foolish and tried to achieve only one thing while raising my younger brother.
“I will teach you many things so that you can live like a human being when you become an adult. Even if everything is impossible, what I think is most important. And we’re going to go play together. So that it will be a good memory later.
Even if you are disappointed in me and try to run away because you don’t like me, I will catch you, grab you by my side, and make you meet people. So that you won’t be alone even if we break up later.
The good memories we will make will make you smile and remember me later. “I will do my best to achieve that.”
That’s how I lived. No matter how sh*tty my life was, I was able to know what to do thanks to learning those things.
I know this is good and not the best choice for disciplining a child like Mr. Oh, but what can you do?
If I were the one to give in on something like this, I wouldn’t have messed with the quest window and the store window wouldn’t even close.
Wooshin also knew this, so he shed tears, gritted his teeth, and then threw himself into my boat and said,
“…… Hmph. “The captain is bad.”
“Is it bad?”
“Don’t go too fast…” … That’s not enough…… I want to stay with that captain for a long time…… “I am the best captain in the world.”
I thought he would make a fuss when he said this, but instead of crying, Wooshin started to act like a child.
I don’t know if he doesn’t understand this concept yet, or if he respects my thoughts and swallows my sadness, but I thought he was a very strong child.
So now I have to talk to the girl who hasn’t said anything until now.
“So, Blue Dragon, why are you so quiet?”
So far, the only one I’ve talked about is Wooshin. The blue dragon has been quiet so far. Strangely, there was nothing said.
Does he respect me like Wooshin, or is there something different? Wooshin and Blue Dragon share the same body, but perhaps because of the physical time they have lived, Blue Dragon takes more care of Wooshin.
I felt like an older sister, letting her eat first and learning how to use chopsticks even harder.
Aside from being good at something, Cheongryong tried hard in many ways, so I waited for Cheongryong’s answer, a little curious about how he would react after hearing this story.
The personality of Wooshin, who was whimpering while making snot drops, enters and the personality of Cheongryong appears.
The face hasn’t changed at all, but I can feel the atmosphere changing slightly, and the blue dragon quietly lifts its head from my embrace and says.
“The reason I stayed quiet was because the captain would never let me go anywhere. No way. I can’t do it without you. Jeon…… I can’t live without you…….
I would rather sink in the sea and disappear together with you, never, never…….”
Oh. For some reason, the face of the crazy woman who stabbed and killed his older sister with whom Blue Dragon had previously had a promiscuous relationship overlaps.
They say that children grow quickly, but isn’t it a bit weird for them to grow in this direction? I thought so as I looked at the blue dragon laughing while crying.
