35 – Picnic Plans and the Great Sage (2)
“No, why the hell is there an option called Chaos!?”
The hamster, which was about to protest, suddenly lay down and
He went on a rampage like a little kid in the toy section of a supermarket.
What it looked like was lying on the ground and screaming for me to buy a toy.
Of course, it was only cute because he was a hamster.
“Dragon, right? This hamster is chaos, right?”
“Kyuung…”
I looked at Yongyong to ask him to tell me the identity of the hamster again.
Everyone can see ‘What are you talking about? Dad?
There’s no way Yongyong would lie…….
Then, this hamster is not Chaos…….
“Then the real great sage?”
“Kyung!”
“How many times do I have to tell you!”
Yongyong nodded his head broadly and bit the hamster in my hand with his mouth.
It has become like a mother tiger holding a tiger cub.
If this person is the great sage, isn’t that your former owner?
Is it okay to keep it in your mouth like that?
“Are you done verifying now?”
The hamster in Yongyong’s mouth crossed its arms.
No, who would believe a talking hamster if he said he was a great sage….
So I am not wrong.
“Ah… Yes, I’m sorry. Great Sage-nim.”
“Whoa…. I’ll forgive you because you’re the first person I’ve met since ‘That Person’ and I’m on the same wavelength.”
The hamster let out a big sigh……. No, Daehyeon-nim.
Come to think of it, Perry and Yongyong packed sunflower seeds for snacks.
I took some sunflower seeds out of my pocket and handed them to the great sage.
Since the great sage is also a hamster, he must like sunflower seeds.
If I’m lucky, I might be able to make it with my spirit.
“Eat this.”
“Keuheum… I’ll eat well.”
Still, a hamster is a hamster, so when I handed him sunflower seeds, he quietly accepted them without saying anything.
Looking at the condition, it seems a bit embarrassing.
When I turned around slightly, Perry was drooling.
Since time is time, you must be hungry.
“Yongyong, you eat too.”
“Kyung!”
“Eat one of the ferries.”
“Bung!”
I put the great sage on the desk
The two spirits also sat down on the table and began chewing on sunflower seeds.
As standard, hamsters peeled the seed shell and ate only the contents.
The dragon and the puppy chewed and ate the shell.
By the way, why did the great sage who disappeared suddenly appear?
Even if I came to take Yongyong, I will never let him go.
Because Yongyong is already my pet.
“Don’t worry, Elsie… Did you say your current name is Yongyong? Why did you name it like this…
Anyway, the body that was contracted with this child is no longer in this world. It looks like they’ve chosen you as their new contractor, so it’s not something I can interfere with.”
“That’s nice, so can I ask you a question this time?”
“Sunflower seed’s return… I don’t know what to say, but let’s ask.”
“So? Why is the great sage still here? I heard that he disappeared on the way even in the lore.”
“Well, after I sealed the chaos…”
And so, a long, long story began.
The life story of the great sage who has lived hard for 3,000 years.
*
“That’s how it happened.”
“…It’s been so long…”
“Three thousand years’ worth.”
He explained everything that happened from 3,000 years before the chaos was sealed until today.
The amount was so vast that it was hard to think of it as a single sunflower seed reward.
It’s a value for money worthy of being called ‘Hyeja’.
To sum up what the great sage said.
After sealing the chaos, he held a ceremony for the deceased King Jin and disappeared from his colleagues.
It is said that it was because he was so sorry that he could not lift his head at the death of King Jin due to his own mistake.
After that, he traveled all over the world to raise disciples, and it is said that he ended his life in a deep, deep mountain valley.
By the way, she must have died, but her eyes are said to have been opened.
However, I was reborn as a baby.
It is said that they have lived for 3,000 years by repeatedly being born and dying like that.
Sometimes I was born a man, and sometimes I was born a woman.
It is said that he was born in a religion and spent his life as a priest, and he was also born into a royal family in another world.
What’s surprising is that he died in ‘Japan’ on Earth a year before he was reincarnated as a hamster.
It is said that he has lived more than 40 lives.
Isn’t this level of a curse?
The curse of not being able to be comfortable even if you want to be comfortable.
“Why did you return to the church headquarters in the body of a hamster?”
“I left some of the power from my days as a great sage in the temple of King Jin. With that, I’ll be able to regain my true self.”
“Hey… You’re more thorough than I thought. By the way, is it okay if you let me know that secret?”
It is said that he reincarnated and told some people that he was a reincarnated great sage.
Of course, no one believed in it, and sometimes they were accused of heresy and burned to death….
If you’ve been through something like that, it’s normal to keep things more secretive.
“Well, that’s fine. He’s the first person I’ve met since ‘Him’.”
“You said it was a wavelength from a while ago. What is that wavelength? Besides, what does ‘him’ mean…?”
“Hmm… It’s hard to explain…”
The great sage began to ponder.
In the end, he scratched his head with his short hamster hand, as if it was difficult for him to explain properly.
“I don’t know if there was another person with the right wavelength, but I don’t know because there were none other than Jinwang and you.”
“Yes? King Jin?”
“Yes, the true king. Anyway, I feel like I miss you for some reason.”
Then it came closer to me and twitched its nose.
Seeing this, Yongyong yawned loudly from the side.
Well, it was already time to go to bed.
“Great Sage. I’ll send you to Jinwang Shrine tomorrow, so if you have nowhere else to go, would you like to come to my dormitory?”
I hate to bring a man into my room, but isn’t Yongyong the former owner?
And there is the great sage.
“Can I?”
“It’s in the shape of a hamster, so that’s fine.”
Basically outsiders are allowed in our dormitory.
However, you cannot enter after the roll call and must leave.
“Yongyong, take care of the great sage.”
“Kyung!”
I wonder if it made me feel better when I asked to go home.
While smiling brightly, I looked at the great sage and bit into his mouth.
“Ghmm… I’m losing face like this…”
“Anyway, no one else is watching. What?”
I confirmed that Yongyong took care of the great sage
I took care of the sleeping Perry.
Is this what it means to not even know how to fish?
I picked it up and put it on my shoulder, but it’s still sleeping.
“Hey, Alvin. What are you doing here?”
“I’m going to go up to my room now… What about you?”
“How about going up? Go and have a drink.”
I smiled bitterly as I watched Dave make a hand motion to tip the glass of wine.
If I drank and slept today, I thought I wouldn’t be able to do my work tomorrow, so I politely declined.
“Sorry, I’m supposed to go on a picnic with Stella tomorrow.”
“Eh… I should hurry up and bring Eri…”
She smiled slightly as Dave clicked her tongue as she remembered her own fiancé.
I wish I could bring him over and introduce him.
I want to ask why this guy got engaged because he likes it.
“Hey, do you want to die?”
“Kuhmm… I just wanted to ask you where you liked to get engaged.”
Is my expression easy to read?
I got caught at once.
***
“King Jin…”
The sacred shrine of King Jinwang, with water flowing down to the left and right.
The great sage is riding on the tomb of King Jin and greeting him.
“It’s been 3,000 years. Sorry for being late.”
As if to apologize, she is stroking his grave.
But why is Perry licking my cheek without saying hello?
Are you not interested because you are the former owner?
No matter how dead….
My daughter…. Even if your father dies, will you still be licking your ex-owner’s cheek?
“Whoa…”
The great sage jumped down from King Jin’s tomb with a sigh.
I didn’t fall to the floor because Yongyong was right under me.
“Have you finished your greetings?”
“Yes, there is no response after all.”
“It’s been 3,000 years since he passed away.”
“…That’s right, no matter what you say, King Jin is dead…”
It is not yet clear why King Jin died.
I know the details of the story directly from the great sage.
“How did you do with the power?”
“I retrieved it. Yongyong-ah, put it on the floor.”
“Kyung.”
To call me by my own name instead of the name I gave myself.
Anyway, the great sage seems to be a person with deep thoughts.
And then.
The hamster’s body started to glow brightly.
It started to shine bright enough to be a halo
It started spreading to the point where it was difficult to keep my eyes open properly.
This is it.
The great sage discarded the hamster’s body and is reconstructing his own body.
As expected, the great sage….
The class is different….
