Side Story (18)
When I opened my eyes, we had already become adults.
The warrior party has adapted to modern life and has become great people.
“hehehe, Mister! Look at me! The hero is on TV!”
Luna was on live TV and doing a V- at me.
It was the result of entering Hollywood after being influenced by Korean dramas.
I passed the audition in one go, as if I had more talent in acting than I thought.
‘You don’t know what people do… ‘

As I was thinking about that, Hare came out of the room and kicked me.
“If you wake up in the morning! I mean, prepare a meal! Mister!”
At times like this, I take a defensive posture and beg for my life.
“Save me, Hare! I’m sorry! I’ll cook quickly!”
A good way to survive.
When Hare behaves like this, she stops kicking and starts watching TV while sitting on her sofa.
I go straight to the sink and prepare the dish.
‘Shall we have steak today? Hare won’t break her desk?’
When I think of that, Saten comes to mind.
Saten shuts herself in her room and doesn’t come out for two years.
When she tried to see what the hell was going on inside, she would get nervous and scream.
‘You said it was a promotion match, mister. Can’t you hear me? Did you see your mother last time? Why are you interfering with the promotion match?’
Somehow, Saten became a demon and did not come out of the room.
I miss my usual self.
And lastly, Estiya who is working hard at work.
Joining the S Group of a large company and taking care of our living expenses…
“… For a moment.”
That can’t be.
Estiya, who doesn’t even do housework, can’t go out and work.
At that moment, I felt something strange before my eyes.
The world collapses, and the world starts spinning.
‘What is this crazy… ‘
Like I’m in a labyrinth.
Like getting lost.
I couldn’t get out of my dream-
***
“What is this crazy dream?”
“Ugh, ahh… Uncle, what are you doing in the morning… !”
Beep-
Wake up from the bed and see Luna’s legs.
Is that the cause of my nightmares?
‘More than that, why is he sleeping here? I said I slept in the master bedroom yesterday.’
I bruised towards Luna’s leg.
“Your legs are very heavy because you gained weight.”
“Don’t say anything bad about my leg! Your legs can hear you!”
“It’s okay, I told you to listen.”
“Because I subtracted it! Don’t provoke the hero for nothing!”
Luna started getting angry in the morning.
But what was that strange dream?
No matter how you think about it, that dream is a strange dream.
As if you were forced to do something that should never happen?
“Something feels strange… “
“Where did you find it strange, mister?”
“What, what. Saten?”
Saten suddenly appeared.
‘Why is he awake in the morning? It’s not even dawn now.’
She looked at my face to see what was wrong.
Like a doctor attending a medical examination.
Her dark eyes searched me.
“Hmm… “
“What, is there a problem?”
“No, it is normal that there are no problems. But, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
That’s right.
Why are you talking about such ominous things, Sathena?
I asked if what I was thinking was correct.
“Just in case, I doubt you… “
“Yes, mister. Please speak.”
“What did you do while I was sleeping? I suddenly had a nightmare that I didn’t have.”
“… Now, did you say you had a nightmare? Isn’t that a nice dream?”
“Yes.”
I explained to Saten what happened in her dream.
A world where something is realistic and where the screws are missing.
When Saten heard that, she answered simply.
“It’s just a dream.”
“Isn’t it? It’s just a dream.”
“However, it is a bit ambiguous to call it just a dream. You will know when you see this.”
Saten brought me a glass bottle and showed it to me.
It contained pills similar to common cold medicine.
“What is that?”
“It is a medicine made with magic. In short, drugs. Originally, I made it for the purpose of having good dreams.”
That?
“Why do you make it? Do you dream of becoming a pharmacist?”
“No, I was going to start a business. It is said that modern people do not sleep well these days. So, I fed him one yesterday while he was sleeping.”
“… I was a clinical experimenter.”
“No, please be precise. We are business partners.”
Saten has learned strange words somewhere.
She’d rather fold her coins than that and start her business.
He tends to enjoy taking risks more than I thought.
She said, “She quit her coin addiction and she is about to fall into a business addiction… “
“Does business have addictions?”
“There are, but there are people who can’t live without coins, and there are people who can’t live without doing business.”
“Still, I’m glad. Because I am not an addict.”
I see.
Can Saten say that she is not an addict?
From my point of view, she looks like she is already addicted to capitalism.
‘The purpose of making money in the first place is to gain power, right?’
I snatched Saten’s glass bottle from her.
“This is confiscation.”
“Why?”
“First of all, it is a drug whose effectiveness has not been properly tested. Selling it is illegal. And, it’s too risky and a failure.”
“What if I make a medicine that makes you have good dreams?”
“That must be a real drug.”
Because people will spend their whole lives sleeping while not working and indulging in good dreams.
Like Estiya who sleeps until noon…
“Wait, Saten.”
“Why?”
“That’s not a nightmare, not a good dream, can’t you make it impossible to dream at all?”
“I don’t know about that because I’ve never done it before. In the first place, this was my magical power mixed with other medicines and refined. By some kind of magic.”
But if it succeeds…
‘Estiya, who usually has nightmares, can sleep comfortably.’
Estiya sleeps for a long time once she sleeps.
However, she has frequent nightmares, so her sleep quality isn’t high, she says.
That’s why she goes to sleep to have happy dreams again.
However, if you have nightmares again, the quality of your sleep is low-
‘Repeat and repeat.’
In the end, the sleep disorder cannot be cured and the person walks in a repetitive position.
That’s why it is said that Estiya sleeps an average of 16 hours a day.
It’s a little less when I’m by your side, but as time passes, you won’t be able to always be by Estiya’s side.
And Estiya wastes too much time while sleeping.
Because they just sleep without meaningful time, they are not even able to properly adapt to the modern era.
“Did I just say business partner, Saten?”
“Yes, if you agree, we become business partners. The ratio is 9 to 1.”
“Am I 9?”
“No, you are 1.”
Is that so?
Saten answered firmly.
Still, if Saten makes Estiya’s sleep cure…
“It will be fine. Even if you don’t sell it to people.”
“Right?”
“Make it into a dreamless drug. If successful… “
What should I give you?
Is there anything Saten would be satisfied with?
I looked at Saten and asked.
“What do you want?”
“What do you want… It looks like there is one.”
“What?”
“Marry me.”
“… What?”
“Did I hear that wrong, marry me.”
Saten proudly declared.
She told me to marry her.
However, that was different from what we first talked about.
“Originally, I was supposed to be in charge of you for several years… “
“I saw it, and there is a saying like this in Korea, which belongs to this earth.”
If a man is responsible once, he is responsible until the end.
I desperately resisted Saten’s words and shouted.
“That’s s*xism!”
“Then, shall I take care of you? Wouldn’t that be okay?”
“… “
I have nothing to say.
I bowed my head at the defeat I hadn’t tasted in a long time.
Then, Saten knelt down and looked up at me from beneath her.
“The day I became an adult. We’re getting married The groom is uncle. The bride is… And, well, the other 3 attendees-“
Before Saten’s words were finished.
I heard Hare’s cold voice from the living room.
I don’t know when it happened, but I thought maybe I felt it instinctively.
“Why is it different from what we said to each other, Saten? Didn’t you say that if you have something to gain, let’s get married? Shall we fight to see who is the strongest at the warrior party?”
“… First place is Luna, then you.”
“Oh, mister. Please allow me. I want to fight.”
The two looked at me and asked for my consent.
If you had a wedding with these women, wouldn’t someone be stabbed and taken to the hospital?
Suddenly, I thought of that, so I sighed and said.
“Let’s just do it together… Well, maybe if I go to another country… “
Maybe it was destined to happen anyway.
The spring day when I become an adult.
The fate of being led to a warrior’s party and getting married.
If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t be able to explain the current situation.
At my reply, Hare and Saten smiled and said at the same time.
“I-I can’t take that back, mister.”
“I heard it clearly, you can never take it back, so remember it well.”
“Yes.”
Somehow it will work.
Even though they are strong, they won’t kill me.
Better than that.
“Saten, let’s make some medicine. Let me see how you make it. It can’t be dangerous.”
“Yes, I understand. Before that, write this and come in.”
Saying that, Saten put something in my hand.
That’s nothing…
“A gas mask? Where did you get this from?”
“The Amazon.”
I see.
How do I get there and buy-
‘No, you shouldn’t question it.’
I guess that’s just how it should be.
If you care about each one, what will you do with your married life with 4 people?
Prepare for the slowly approaching future.
I have my own room. No, I went into Saten’s room, which has now changed owners.
It’s like…
‘I’ve seen this in many American dramas.’
Looked like a drug manufacturing site.
