chapter 602
602 – Side story) Sister(?)’s heart
Return to home, Earth.
And reunion with family.
This was the original purpose in the first place.
From the first moment I was possessed by the breeder’s body and landed on the Drango continent.
I thought of it as the first goal given to me as I was thrown into an unfamiliar land and the end point of this journey.
Of course, as the saying goes, “The more I wander, the more my land is.” Now, Drango Continent has become so familiar to me that it feels like my second home.
But that doesn’t mean the longing fades. I’ve always had a desire to return to Earth somewhere in my heart. Because my longing for my family was even greater than my nostalgia for my hometown.
Anyway, as a result, I was able to return to Earth easily with the help of another person. To my hometown, where my family is waiting for me.
But despite this, I was unable to reunite with my family. That’s right… … .
[Mother: Jihoon, are you eating well? If nothing else, I heard the news of Sorim’s grandmother’s death and am planning to return to Korea with your father within two days. So, you should go first and say hello. We’ll contact you again as soon as we return.]
As you can see, he was abroad.
They went on a trip to coincide with their wedding anniversary.
It’s already been over 30 years since you got married, but you still love the gold thread.
You believe that your independent son will somehow live well on his own and go abroad alone… … .
Well, my father and mother probably don’t know.
After rolling around like a dog in another world.
And I barely made it back, but you have no idea how devastated I felt about being alone again.
‘Anyway, you’re coming back now. I can’t believe it’s already been this long… … .’
Now that I think about it, a lot happened.
I went back and forth between the Drango continent and Earth.
I lost track of time as I was taking care of each wife one by one.
As a result, almost two weeks had already passed since we returned to Earth.
This was possible because I was not alone.
It was hectic, but I wasn’t lonely.
As I cherished every moment, I was able to forget my longing for a while.
Because they were also my new family.
“… … .”
As I reflect on the events that have happened, the longing for my family stirs up again.
Even though I went back and forth between the two worlds, in hindsight, time seems to go faster than I thought. As we dealt with each person on Earth one by one, time had already passed by.
Looking back, it was almost time for him to come back. I guess he’s returning home a little early after hearing the news of his death.
“Jihoon? “What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”
Jeon So-rim looks down at me with a puzzled expression. She asks what’s going on in a worried voice.
“Ah, I think my parents will return home before the funeral is over.”
I showed the message to Jeon So-rim.
Stand on tiptoes and stretch out your arms.
But was Sorim originally this tall for a girl?
“oh? It’s true. So what are you going to do now? “You haven’t found a way to return to your original body yet, right?”
“I know. I guess I’ll have to go home today and think about it. It is unclear whether I will be able to enter the portal with this weakened body… … .”
Today I wanted to go in and rest.
Maybe it’s because my body is younger, but I’m already sleepy.
It’s just past 10pm… … .
I feel tired and drowsy pouring over my entire body.
Since it’s my parents’ return home, I want to go home quickly, take a deep breath, and wake up.
“Jihoon? wait for a sec!”
“… huh?”
“Where are you going to go alone with a body like that?”
ㅡTeoup!
When I said I was going back, Jeon So-rim grabbed my wrist. As if I couldn’t let him go alone.
Now they see me quite openly as a child.
“Is there anything I can’t go to? It doesn’t matter because I just got younger. “It’s a quick taxi ride from here.”
“no. “I can never spend it alone.”
“What does that mean all of a sudden? “You know very well that you can’t be taken care of at a ceremony with a body like this, right?”
ㅡKkoook… !
‘… Phew? ‘What power?’
I tried to shake off Sorim’s hand, but
As expected, it was impossible with a body like this.
I don’t know if it was a side effect of rejuvenation, but the power of Dragon Heart was useless.
So much so that even the grip strength of Sorim, an ordinary human woman, couldn’t move. Currently, I am an adult only in consciousness, but my body is no different from that of a child.
“I’ll take you home.”
“what? Are you going to keep treating me like a child?”
“No, I’m not using such unreasonable force. “I also happened to stop by the house for a moment and run some errands for my parents.”
“Oh yeah… … ?”
“huh. Since he came out in such a hurry today, he said he left a lot of things at home. Anyway, come with me. “How scary is the world these days, so why would a child take a taxi alone at this late hour?”
Jeon So-rim pulls my arm with a mischievous smile.
-Wow!
“Wow… … ?!”
At the same time, I feel Jeon So-rim’s embrace.
Something soft nestled inside the mourning clothes.
Of course, I couldn’t escape from her arms this time either. The difference in power between adults and children was clear.
“Hehehe, how good would it have been to be able to hug you like this when we went to school together? If only I had been a little more courageous… … .”
“So, Shaolin?”
“If that were the case, would I have been higher in rank than the other sisters?”
“Ugh… … ?”
Damn, I’m only pulled lightly, but I can’t get out. It was so fluffy and soft that I didn’t really want to get out of it.
“… Anyway, maybe Jihoon fitting into your arms like this isn’t bad? Cute-♥”
“Cough..! I’m suffocating, so can you please just let me go… … ?”
“I don’t want to. If you say you want to go with me, I’ll let you go.”
“Tsk, I understand. “I’ll go with you.”
“Foot, that’s right. Then please wait a moment. “I’ll go inside, change my clothes, and come back out.”
“Okay, I understand.”
“Oh, you’re so kind, our Jihoon. “Don’t go somewhere and wait for me~?”
Only now is the bondage lifted.
At the same time, my head is stroked.
With Jeon So-rim’s playful voice.
“Who am I to call my older sister?”
“I’m a lot older, so you’re my older sister! Isn’t that right~?”
“No matter how much you insist, I will never call you sister.”
“Puh-huh, are you really sulking now? It’s really cute… … .”
“It’s okay.. It’s okay! Please come back quickly. “If you’re late, I’ll really go away alone.”
“Okay, so don’t go anywhere and just wait there. “I’ll be back soon!”
Jeon So-rim leaves only those words and hurries into the building. Her face, which had looked slightly dark at the time of my grandmother’s death, suddenly became bright again as usual.
‘I’m glad to see that you seem to have more energy than before… … .’
By the way, I need to quickly return to my original body.
It’s one thing to be a parent, but you can’t be treated like a child by everyone forever.
***
It didn’t take long to wait for Sorim.
“Please go to Yeomyeong Villa in Building XX.”
After leaving the university hospital, she and I immediately caught a taxi.
“Oh my, are you by any chance your son? Or your nephew?”
As soon as we got into the car, the old taxi driver’s characteristic rudeness greeted us. Why are we so curious about other people’s family relationships when we can only focus on driving?
“No, he’s my younger brother.”
“Huh..? Brother?”
“that’s right. “He’s a bit late, haha.”
“… … ?!”
Jeon So-rim is one more drinker here.
She pats me on the back and laughs.
Now that she’s gotten smaller, is she really trying to pretend to be her older sister?
‘Tsk, enjoy it while you can.’
-Phew!
To this, I didn’t bother to counter, but deliberately looked out the car window.
“That guy looks really smart. Yes?”
“Our youngest is kind of cute.”
“… … .”
“Hehe, but he’s a kid so he’s very shy.”
“Please understand. My youngest is in puberty these days… … .”
… ha? What is puberty? Did you know that I would react if you stimulated me like that?
Although I deliberately turned my back on him and continued to ignore him,
Jeon So-rim’s acting as her older sister never stopped.
I am truly grateful that everyone, including Raylin, likes this side of me, but my pride is slowly getting scratched as I continue to be treated like a child.
ㅡKkook!
‘Er, I don’t know. I’m sleepy. I need to get some sleep.’
I closed my eyes, deciding not to care anymore. In fact, out of pride or something, I suddenly felt drowsy as I laid my back on the seat.
Now that I think about it, I worked out quite a bit today with my scrawny body. When I close my eyes, I feel so tired that I lose my mind.
“Kuuul… … .”
I need to sleep for a bit and wake up.
Sorim will wake you up when you arrive.
I’m so sleepy and tired that I don’t want to do anything.
***
How long has it been since I took a nap in a taxi like that?
ㅡChrrrrrrrrrrrrrr… !
For some reason, the sound of water reaches my ears.
A sound like water being poured with a bowl.
What I felt was not just hearing.
“It’s warm… … .”
At the same time, a warm feeling surrounds the entire body.
I feel a soft hand caressing me.
Even in the midst of a half-asleep state, I can feel the hand being touched with affection.
A pleasant touch that washes away all the fatigue from your entire body at once. Although I was surprised by the sudden contact, I just wanted to leave my body like this.
ㅡShoo… … !
The sound of water is heard again one after another.
With a careful hand.
I feel like my body is getting warm again.
It’s like spraying water from a shower… … .
‘what? wait for a sec… … .’
When my thoughts reach that point, my eyes suddenly open.
A shocking sight that immediately catches your eye.
I didn’t hear the sound of water for no reason.
“W-this place… … . “The bathroom at my house?”
“oh? Jihoon, are you awake now?”
“──?!”
Jeon So-rim’s voice is heard as soon as she notices the familiar structure.
I raised my head and looked up at that voice… … .
A half-naked Jeon So-rim, covering herself with a towel, was sitting behind me.
My body, on the other hand, felt naked.
Still, I wasn’t completely naked.
Instead of clothes, the body was covered with body wash foam that I don’t know when it was released.
‘What kind of situation is this now… … ?’
