137 – Festival (2)
“No matter how much I do, I can’t concede just this time.”
I ended up entering the tent that was openly calling it a . Inside was very spacious.
I’m in the lead, and the demon lord is following behind.
-Turbuck, turbuck
-Chabak, chabak
From behind her, she speaks to her in a trembling voice.
“This, you know. He’s my friend who walks close to the wall because he’s scared. Gee, even now, if you want, I’ll leave. Instead, I say, ‘I’m a coward,’ and she should stroke my head with her elephant hand.”
“…You are so scared that you are hiding behind me and crying… If you ask for forgiveness with a belly salute right now, I can be generous enough to go back?”
“… Kee… Kee hee hee? Are you going to try it? By the way, I have no fear at all. Among my friends, there were some scary undead… Bah, give up quickly. Now is a good time to get out.”
“Then you, the undead Chingku Chingku, go ahead.”
“… Huh?”
-Chabak, chabak
-Turbuck, turbuck
“Demon King. I know that?”
I asked her who was going ahead of her.
“…What do you mean?”
“There are ghosts living in haunted houses…”
“… Uh, it’s a person dressed up anyway, right? I know it because I saw it in the melodrama I saw last time. It looks like he was trying to scare me with that, but he didn’t even know…”
“Yeah… You’re right. But among those ghosts, there are real ghosts mixed in.”
– Boom
“What?”
“There is a real ghost mixed in.”
I have heard of such a story somewhere.
Thinking about it gives me chills as well. But her trembling back, which was much more frightened than me, was so cute that I couldn’t stop it. It is truly a companion.
“If the ghost likes it… They say you can’t leave the haunted house forever.”
“uuu…”
The demon king covered his ears and shook his head. But she was the one who couldn’t bring herself to say that she wanted to go back now.
I came here to put the coward title on me too, but if I asked to leave again this time, I would never be able to erase the stigma of a coward for the rest of my life.
…
But there aren’t that many ghosts for a haunted house.
“… Huh? What’s this? ”
A rope hangs in front of the demon king who was walking ahead with such a warning message.
“I can’t believe… I’m trying to pull…”
-Jjuuk
“You lively b*tch! They say don’t pull, but why pull!”
“Yeah, but! How is this… Huh? What are you talking about?”
-Chubbuck chubbuck
-Kikii Yiyak
When I turned to where the sound came from, I saw a woman in white running frantically barefoot.

I am afraid of ghosts. Only afraid of ghosts
Even when I was young, I was flipping through the channels and when I saw something like a legendary hometown, I passed it right away.
Before going to the cinema, I made sure to check for horror movie posters by scouting out friends and nice girls who offered to show me movies for free.
Despite his meticulous behavior, he always had a hard time sleeping on the nights he saw even a meme of a ghost.
“Dogs are tenacious! Team Rocket?!”
Aren’t the ghosts in the haunted house usually let go if they deviate from their assigned point? But that person persistently pursued us. He is a very professional minded person.
-Tada…
“Whoa… Haa… Oh no! It’s a dead end road. What now?”
The running demon stopped and gasped for breath.
“… Ha ha ha… That’s an obvious situation.”
-Tadada dat…
The sound of the ghost’s footsteps coming from far away gradually gets closer.
“Should we fight?”
“What are you fighting for! No way! Are you going to kill the ghost Alba?”
…
There’s no way they’ve placed a dead end on the escape route. There must have been a way out somewhere.
-Tadada dat
Around the time when Heoyeon’s footsteps were close enough to reach the ground.
‘I found it.’
A booth with the words Written next to it catches my eye. Fortunately, there are two.
-Duck
When I opened the door, the space was so small that only one person could fit in each booth.
“Here. I guess it’s a good concept if you go in there. Get in there quickly.”
“Yes!”
I entered the booth without hesitation. I forgot to lock the door from the inside.
–
The ghosts twisting their joints and approaching are strangely trendy. I mean, it’s scary without being tacky.
When you’re scared and forget to breathe.
-Clap, clack
…
-Oh, it’s not open!
I heard the demon king’s despair along with the sound of a doorknob slamming from the side.
“What?!”
-This… The box door won’t open! I guess it’s locked!
“That, just open it by force! You hit 25,000 against 3.”
– No! Peter Penn said vandalism is a death penalty!
Damn it. Is it you again James?
-Clap, clap! Clap!
I’m going crazy. It’s narrow enough for me to enter alone. Never two can come in.
– Oh… They’re coming! It’s right ahead!! You have to transform into boiled lotus root…! Oops, I’m out of mana!
“…”
hahahaha… Damn it.
Dreams are wild.
-Beep
I opened the door and came out and hurriedly put the demon king crouching flat into the booth where I was.
“Ah, you, you!?”
“You have to close the door. Put your arm in!”
-Bang
After putting her in and closing her door, I look behind her, and her ghost is watching me right in front of her nose.
-Kicky Geek Kki Aek!
“aaa!!”
Then, he cringes and is visited by a dog. Twisting and screaming in front… Excuse me for the first time, but it’s a very damn good harvest.
-Kick-Kick-Kick-Kick-Kick!
Please… Take it easy… Before I cry.
-Beep
“Don’t do it! Don’t eat my friend!”
No… I’ve sacrificed my best.
The demon lord jumped out of the booth and ran and wrapped his small arms around me, who was crouching down.
The arms that wrapped around me trembled violently.
…
The sound of the ghost’s joint popping stopped. When she opens her narrow eyes, she too smiles heartily at the two trembling boys hugging each other.
…
After a while, the ghost left and two candies were placed at her feet.
*
“Kee hee hee. Was it really boring? Yes? Do I fall asleep in the middle?”
“So. Oh, I thought I was dying of boredom.”
The two nerds who got out of the haunted house and got to safety are holding Gao as they are.
Looking at her legs, which are still trembling, she looks no different from mine.
…
“Thank you.”
The demon king looked at me with a flushed face and smiled beautifully. Say the belly button you said at the beginning.
“You fought demons for me.”
… I didn’t fight. It was just a dog.
“… It’s awkward for someone to fight for me… Thank you.”
…
“If you’re thankful, it will come out or not.”
“… hehehe.”
The demon king came to me and tried to hug me, but stopped.
“… I’m still beating here.”
The Demon King pointed to his left chest and said. When I point out blatantly, my face gets hot for some reason.
“… I did it because I was scared.”
“… Yes. I guess so.”
-Growl
A sound was heard from the Demon King’s ship.
“…”
“…”
“… You know. What do you think Did you think I was a pig?”
“…Deja vu.”
I think I said that before riding the Viking.
*
I stopped by Min-sik to have yesterday’s appointment, get menu recommendations, and sell hot dogs.
“Ugh. Yum. Lol.”
The Demon King is really blessed to eat well. Seeing her holding her hot dog with both her hands full of potatoes and eating her well-balanced bite, her father smiles involuntarily. Min-sik was also looking at the demon king with satisfaction.
“Kheu, this is the reward of doing business.”
“If I go back with the demon king, shall we have a mukbang?”
“Oh, that’s a good idea? The number of views will be great.”
At that time, the demon king, who was watching her instant mukbang, made eye contact with us, and trembled.
“… Oh, I’m sorry. I’m greedy for myself I will share.”
…
Eating a single hot dog seems to be paying attention. She cracked open two potatoes and gave us…
“?”
“?”
Hand over the hot dog and eat the mashed potatoes yourself.
“… They said they would give it away. How far can you be a good person?”
“…Can I eat it all?”
“Okay. Even if you eat everything you want, no one will say anything to you.”
Then the demon king started eating the hot dog again with a slightly relaxed face.
“hahahaha. It’s so nice. Thank you for your delicious meal. What are you going to do now, Demon King?”
“… Yum. Eating, playing games, chump… Ring toss yum, yum, yum yum.”
“Swallow and tell me. Give it to me before it explodes.”
-Gulp
“I’m going to look around! You might be able to find another potato hot dog shop like this, right? And playing games… Drawing? I want to try that too.”
“Oh, then how about a fortune teller?”
“No! Conflict!!”
The demon lord vomited blood and hit her hand. Well, if even a disgrace floats here, the whole island might sink. That was about it. The devil’s bad luck.
“Ah, is that so? It is said that lovers who are good at picking out love spells last a long time…”
“… What?! What does that mean?! Pointy. Say it right!”
“Poop, pointy.”
“…”
The Demon King asked, pointing to a hot dog stick.
According to Pointy, every festival in this village has a lot of popular fortune-telling draws.
“… Hey. Do that?”
“Even if they’re just friends… you can draw.”
“No… That’s not the problem… Don’t you know your luck?”
“… I know. But… I have to.”
The demon king made up his mind and clenched his fists. Then he picks up the trash that has fallen around him.
‘…Do you want to increase your success rate by doing good things?’
The Demon King, who had always lived a good life but was only betrayed, was rewarded last Christmas.
“Then it’s a decision to go. As for the location…”
The demon king carefully listened to the location that the pointedy explained while moving his fingers.
“Oh, yes, Dongha. Fireworks are never to be missed. There are many passionate fireworks artisans in our town. The fireworks that artisans fire every turn are very famous for their beauty.”
“Nice, that. Are you going to see it too?”
“Uh. I have to close the store early and go see Sara.”
“Okay. Thanks. Good job. Then.”
*
She stopped at every shop she saw and every entertainment that looked interesting, and didn’t snoop on anything on the way to the fortune teller that Minsik told her about.
“Oh, that bouncy ball game sounds fun. Can I not try?”
“It’s okay. I’ll do it later, because I remember everything.”
“…Yes.”
…
Draw…
To be honest, my anxiety is bigger.
I wish I hadn’t done it.
Because she’ll definitely pick something terrible.
I don’t want to see the gloomy devil anymore.
– Busy Busy
Fortune draw is as popular as Min-shik said, so the waiting line was very long.
“Is everyone here… lovers?”
“I guess so.”
“… hehehe.”
“…? The line is too long, should we do something else?”
The demon king shook his head. He went to the back and stood in line.
“I will wait.”
“… Ok. I will wait with you.”
She said to her, these times would be very precious to her, but she would want to enjoy a little more variety of food and games.
… This kind of festival, maybe it will be the last.
The demon king waited in line for her. She closed her eyes and prayed.
– Honey. We are platinum apples! Happy!
-It’s a pity that it’s not a rainbow apple…
-Ay! It almost never comes out! That’s good enough!
I heard the conversation of couples passing by after picking up a fortune teller.
It is said that silver apples, gold apples, platinum apples, and, very rarely, rainbow apples come out from low grade.
It seems to have been a careful composition so that there are no bad words so that there is no one who is disappointed by the owner who comes out badly.
So maybe even the silver apple doesn’t have bad words written on it…
“… Murmuring.”
What the demon king muttered while putting his hands together was also a golden apple. She knows her luck herself, so she hopes that it’s not the lowest of her fortune, that she has at least some luck.
…
‘I don’t want too much either. Because he’s the Demon King.’
Even if silver is pulled out, at least the words she wants are written on it.
And finally her turn came.
-Gulp
The demon king held the coin tightly for a moment and put it into the fortune telling machine.
-Clink
I heard the refreshing sound of coins falling to the floor.
…
…
…
‘… What is it?’
Did the lottery fail?
Do not spit anything.
It went well until the turn right before us.
“…”
Is not even an apology. At the result that the demon king had never thought of, he only looks at the drawing with a devastated face.
Then.
-Kudangtang, dangtang
A loud sound echoed from inside the lottery.
– Took
“!”
“!!!!”
– Took, Tok…
-Warrr!
Innumerable rainbow apples poured out.
The demon king stretched out his trembling hands and held up rainbow apples.
“Waaa…”
Her pretty lips won’t close.
Her pupils, swaying violently, follow the letters engraved on the rainbow apple.
The whole thing was a perfectly good tone. One of them gets stepped on in my eye.
At that time, a half-elf who seemed to be in charge came running.
“Oops, sorry! Customer. I’ve never been like this before… It looks like the puller is broken.”
“… No.”
“Yes?”
The Demon King has the brightest smile out of all the ones he’s shown so far. Hold the rainbow apples full in both hands.
“It’s not a malfunction! It won’t be! hehehehe.”
