If you do something, you should be rewarded for it.
This proposition does not apply only to large systems such as schools, societies, or countries. Rather, in a narrower concept, such as a relationship between individuals or individuals, a reward has a greater meaning.
After exercising, you should get plenty of rest, and you should provide nutrients to your exhausted body. If you feel tired from long work, you ask for sugar. If one person has helped someone else, it must be satisfied with a positive response.
How such a reward system makes the body, mind, and relationships stronger.
So I had to reward Aji.
little girl.
“Ego. It’s a barbecue party.”
“bruise!”
Aji’s eyes twinkled and he waved his tail. The force of the tail was so strong that the wind caused all the flames and smoke to be directed at me. If you shake it a little faster, it might fly into the sky.
I stabbed the meat with a skewer. Seeing it go in without resistance, it looks like it’s fully cooked. As it was soaked in water for a long time to increase its volume, it looked like it was half-boiled, but I turned it off because I wasn’t going to eat it anyway.
He picked up a large piece of meat with a skewer and twirled it over his head. Aji lowered her posture with eyes full of anticipation. A stream of saliva was dripping from the corner of his gaping mouth.
I pulled my arm hard and swung it wide, sending the chunk of meat far away.
“Take it! Special Meat Disc!”
“bruise! Mommy! bruise!”
A meat disc that flies away boasting an overwhelming flavor and an appetizing appearance. Aji rolled his eyes and chased after the fish. Aji caught the flying piece of meat in the air and ate the meat with a happy smile.
This is a play meal where you play and eat at the same time. It would have been a great reward for Aji than ever.
I usually don’t put much effort into it, but a dog who fought a vampire for me deserves meat.
The next piece of meat was placed on the grill and shouted.
“You have to listen carefully from now on!”
“Woof woof! yes!”
Aji’s simple but well-rewarded happy laughter spreads here. After all, dogs are good friends. Even after fighting the blood horse, a few pieces of meat make you happy.
I smiled and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
“weird. I worked hard and got good results. Why is there no reward for me?”
what?
I know for sure performance deserves a reward, but why am I the only one not getting it? It’s like someone who knows the need for compensation better than anyone else takes care of someone else’s compensation?
This is kind of unfair. something, something… .
“Doggy! tasty! Dude!”
All of a sudden, Aji, who had eaten all the meat, came up to me, wagging his tail. While the meat was roasting, I patted Aji and murmured.
“Oh hey. Praise me.”
“You are good! Give me meat!”
“Don’t think about making money with compliments, but compliments that come from your heart. Show the truth.”
Then Aji put her arms on her waist and shouted while stretching her chest.
“You are good!”
“okay. It’s wrong to expect a metaphor, an idiom, or something metaphysical from you. Thank you, hey.”
“Give me meat!”
“You still want to make money.”
When I put the skewer on the meat again and let it go, Aji left me alone and ran straight away. Yeah, he’s an animal that doesn’t know anything, so he only needs to take care of himself, right?
It was the time when Aji, who had no worries at all, was about to be sarcastic.
“Is there something wrong?”
The need for a reward is the same in the negative direction, which we call a bee.
The vampire, who was only controlled by Finlay and caused a riot, faced my fierce anger, and as a punishment, he was punished to rectify the destruction he had committed.
As a result, the vampire compacted the ruined concrete ground and recovered the flesh of the immortal’s right arm that had been horribly destroyed. The vampire’s power could not touch the undead, so the vampire had to move his hand to pick it up one by one after a long time.
The vampire said as he lifted up the arm of the undead, or more precisely, the box full of flesh that made up the arm.
“But you didn’t actually destroy Toin’s arm, did you?”
“Uh-huh! You have to clap your hands to make a sound. If it wasn’t for the black knights of the Tirkanjaka trainees, would the immortal’s arm have been so damaged? So, the responsibility lies on both sides, especially the Tirkanjaka trainee who has done things his way!”
How dare you put the blame on me. It’s not hard I opened my eyes and questioned the vampire.
Having said that, the vampire lowered her gaze and spoke slightly.
“I didn’t mean to avoid it. However, it would be a bit unfair if someone said that I had committed even this horrendous insolence that someone scraped off the flesh with a skewer and scattered it all over the place.”
There are some parts that get a little stabbed, but there are many people in the world who need more stabbing than me. In front of him, I was infinitely proud.
“Do you have something a little unfair about that? Do you know how miserable I am right now? I worked to break my body, but all that’s left is post-processing! I cooked it, but I couldn’t even finish the food and I was left with all the dishes!”
“Is it so wrathful?”
“Absolutely! What am I doing wrong in this situation? I did my job without doing anything wrong, and there is no reward for me! At the very least, no one praises me for doing a good job!”
“Good job.”
Eh? what?
While I opened my mouth at the sudden words, the vampire continued to speak while staring at me.
“Thank you. You did a really good job. Thanks to you, I was able to avoid making a bigger mistake. It’s all thanks to you.”
I heard a compliment suddenly, but if people’s hearts felt better with these compliments, the proverb ‘Get down on your knees and receive me’ would not have arisen.
I said with a smirk.
“The dog praised him for food, but what else is the trainee Tirkanjaka trying to rip?”
“Are you looking at me like that? It is a compliment that comes from the heart. I said thank you, but what are you complaining about?”
“Of course I should be grateful. I saved something from being manipulated by an idiot I’ve never heard of. That’s constant.”
“I said I was hungry for compliments, but I only hear complaints. Then what do you mean by looking at me?”
“Show it in action. As the trainee said, if the words come from the heart, there is no need for electric massage, right? Yes?”
As I turned around, the vampire hurriedly grabbed my arm. After hesitating for a moment, the vampire said, slightly avoiding my cold gaze.
“… I didn’t say I didn’t need it.”
“Wow. It’s really addicting.”
“It’s an addiction. No poison enters my body. I just want my heart to beat, even for a moment. So just a little bit.”
“You say that addiction is what you want even if your body is broken? He doesn’t know he’s addicted, so he’s not shyly being manipulated by his family. Why do people who are living well are so anxious because they make their heart beat so poorly?”
As I continued to respond with a blunt attitude, the vampire, who was finally exhausted, looked up at me with resentful eyes.
“Is it because of you?”
“yes?”
what else is this? It was so absurd that it made no sense. Is this an outdated April Fools joke?
I lamented that it was my fault for teaching the old people to play provocative games as a joke, but I can only do it because I’ve actually suffered damage! If you say that, it’s ingratitude!
The vampire still had something to say, grabbed my arm and said.
“My heart is not beating. No matter what emotion you feel, it goes away quickly. Therefore, for me, desires, emotions, and memories are as faint as if they were painted over with achromatic colors. Even now, even this moment with you.”
A young man with a mouthful of meat in his mouth was walking softly, and when he saw a vampire, he just sat down and began to eat the leftover meat.
The vampire looked at Aji faintly, as if recalling a distant memory.
“I do not need food because I am not hungry, so I am not happy even if I smell and taste it. You cannot rejoice like the king of dogs even when the seafood and seafood are right in front of you.”
“You can taste blood.”
“Did you really think it was a taste? Taste is just a metaphor, and it is to find the blood that is closest to me and get drunk. The more like my blood, the more it satisfies me.”
The vampire, who lightly scolded me, looked away again and said.
“Therefore, there is no warmth in my feelings. Just twinkling like stars in my head. The starlight in the dark night sky was faintly beautiful, but it couldn’t warm the cold earth, so my feelings just flickered and disappeared for a moment without warmth.”
Contrary to popular rumors, the infamous vampire was so kind, it must be because of her personality, but other reasons cannot be ignored either.
By nature, humans are tolerant of things that cannot harm them.
To be precise, it becomes insensitive.
Vampires do not receive any physical or psychological wounds. Even if someone stabs her with a knife and a spear, if she says she is going to die of cursing and resentment, you can hear it similar to the song of a bird chirping last night.
cruel? No, humans should be grateful for that.
If the founder Tirkanjaka did not have the sensitivity to find beauty even in the same daily life, if it were not for the girl who could be immersed in the emotions while looking at the gently flowing starlight.
Humanity would have had to deal with the vampire queen, many times colder and cruel than it is today.
“Even if Finlay resented me, I didn’t care. Even as I killed him, my mind was like arranging an old chest of drawers. It was the same in the past, and it will always be. I like you quite a bit, but even if you suddenly die, I wouldn’t blink an eye. There was a man like this, and he will regret it for a moment and then turn away.”
No, wait.
Even if it’s a metaphor, why are you killing me, it’s scary. It’s okay not to blink, so can’t you save me?
Without knowing that I was terrified by the inadvertent analogy, the vampire raised her hand holding the parasol to her chest.
“But only for that brief moment when my finger touched my heart. I can feel the emotions flowing through my body. At that time, my body was mine and not mine. The heart beats at will, and the lungs suck in air at will when there is no need for it. It warms my heart, which has been cold all my life.”
Even if I hold my chest with both hands now, the only thing I can feel is the coldness. The vampire stretched out her hand and looked down sadly.
“If you don’t know at all, you don’t know, but as long as you know, you can’t go back. It’s been a long night. The dawn had dawned and there was a faint warmth, to turn the clock back and return to the dark and cold night. Isn’t that too cruel?”
And then our eyes met again. Blood-red eyes stab me at an angle from bottom to top.
Calmly releasing old thoughts, the vampire heard a single wind in his heart and out of his mouth.
“Please, be my heart.”
In the darkness where the sky could not be seen, long-standing wishes flowed from the abyss that had abandoned even the earth.
I was terrified.
Words are really romantic. The emotions contained in it were so desperate that it was hard to believe that he was a vampire whose heart stopped, and even I almost fell for a moment.
But I have mind reading.
After reading what the words meant with mind-reading, he poked his tongue out in its cruelty.
to be the heart?
That means, literally, be an externally attached heart that puts your finger in your chest and conducts electricity whenever you want!
“By the way, I still don’t even know your name… .”
“That’s Okay.”
Before anything more appeared, I cut my words off. As if stabbed by a knife, the words are cut off. For a moment, the gaze that looked at me was filled with resentment.
“Have you been so burned out yet that you haven’t come to your senses? Because if you give your heart to someone else and go around, big things will happen again.”
“So why don’t you do it?”
“No, well. How do I believe? What are you going to do if I lose control?”
As a result of euphemistic refusal, he threatened to do so, but the vampire’s reaction was quite different from what I expected.
“If it’s you, it doesn’t matter.”
Those words spoken calmly, even me with mind-reading skills, were puzzled enough to make me lose my mind for a moment and re-read my thoughts.
I wondered if the vampire had just learned a joke, so I read my thoughts straight through again.
‘If you have to trust someone anyway, if you must put me on a scale. I’d rather leave me to the one I like.’
no. Are you sane? Hogu, I’m sure there will be other people with this kind of attitude.
There are degrees in the world. Just as gamblers who have neither blood nor tears do not steal money from their noses, it is enough for Hogu to eat it.
So, I resolutely rejected the vampire’s plea.
“I care. Because I don’t want to be anyone’s heart. Even if it’s a trainee.”
At the refusal that gave no room, the vampire deeply regretted it.
However, such a miserable feeling is also fleeting.
The disappointment disappeared quickly, and resignation soon followed. Not giving up, but just like a river, flowing through everything, passing her by.
In this case, mind reading is not good.
You have to hit it, you just have to let it go.
Because if I stare at it, I feel sorry for myself.
“But, won’t you give up your heart?”
At my words, the vampire shut her mouth. Silence doesn’t necessarily guarantee positivity, but if you put it on a scale, it will definitely inspire positivity.
I wouldn’t be foolish to entrust my heart to a seed like Finlay. But I’m guessing you’re going to be doing something a little less stupid than that.
Whoa. really.
I wiped my forehead and sighed.
“Then I’d rather do it myself.”
“Did you say you will? That means.”
A face that is colored like a flower blooming for a moment.
convinced It’s so easy to understand that it’s possible that another scammer might have a liver, gallbladder, and … . I mean physically.
Can not help it. I reached out and grabbed the vampire’s hand.
“Hope keeps disappearing through the cracks, not because the hand of a Tirkanjaka trainee is absurdly large or hope is so small and delicate.”
Now, even if I openly try to hold my hand, I don’t criticize it for anything. What is the sense of crisis? Even simple rudeness is ignoring just because you have a little affection.
I grabbed the small, cold fingers one by one and affixed them neatly.
Small and ring fingers, ring and middle fingers, middle and index fingers, and index and thumb.
“I just put less pressure between my fingers.”
What you need is a desperate wish.
Hold on. After clasping five fingers tightly, he pushed them to the vampire’s chest. The vampire with both hands on his chest looked at me with anticipation.
Whoa. I really, really didn’t mean to.
“I am not the heart of a trainee. I don’t even want to be Because I don’t want to play hard every moment, I won’t run if I don’t want to, and most of the time I will be away from my trainees.”
If someone’s wish comes true so close, I can’t help it either.
As one who sees the future is bound by it and perishes.
The one who sees in the heart, too, cannot be free from the minds of others.
“Instead, I’ll show you how to make that heart beat again.”
Attach a pacemaker?
😭
