“Sejun-hyung, are you already managing your partner’s past as soon as you start dating?” “No, well….” It wasn't exactly 'managing his past.' Or was it? Sejun pondered Dogyeong’s words for a moment before he suddenly realized something. He turned his head up. “But are we actually dating?” “…….” Cha Dogyeong’s expression, which had seemed momentarily flustered by Sejun’s question, instantly fell. Oops. Sejun realized he had just stepped on a landmine. He tried…- 279.8 K • Completed
- “That reminds me, I have something I want to ask.” Sejun had grown generous with the alcohol in his system. His heart had expanded enough that he felt ready to answer almost anything Dogyeong might be curious about with total honesty. He replied with a cool demeanor, as if to say he was an open book. Dogyeong took a look at Sejun’s face, which had turned a soft crimson from the drinks, and finally spoke. “When did you start liking me, Seo Sejun?” Sejun’s jaw locked mid-chew on a…

- Is it because of the main mission reward? That was the most likely explanation, but the absence of a presence that had always been by his side made Sejun feel restless as time passed. Sejun felt his mind would finally calm once the settlement was completed, regardless of the reward. However, everything seemed to drag on for no apparent reason. Was it because the system was processing the reward? Because the mission wasn’t fully complete yet? Or did Dogyeong liking Sejun really have nothing to do…

For more than half an hour, they stood in an embrace. They might have stayed that way until dawn if Eunho hadn't finally reached out to comfort him. They moved downstairs to the living room and sat on the sofa. Eunho sipped his drink while a simple snack was on the table before them. He appeared lost in thought. "For now, I plan to keep working at the meat restaurant." His voice had a newfound weight. Eunho began to open up about how he wanted to live his life from now on. Yeorok sat beside him…- 238.1 K • Completed
- When Eunho stepped outside at 11 p.m., a familiar car was parked across from the shop. The luxury sedan looked out of place against the backdrop of buildings faded by time. Eunho reflexively lifted his arms and sniffed. The scent of grease clung to him. He had been trapped in meat smoke for hours, so it was only natural for the smell to soak into his clothes and hair. He tried to shake his shirt out, but it wasn’t useful. He finally gave up and opened the back door. Choi Yeorok sat on the plush…

- After Eunho quit his night shift at the convenience store, his sleep schedule slowly returned to normal. He resumed his work at the meat restaurant and was currently helping with the pre-opening preparations. "Did you buy a new phone?" The kitchen auntie asked while they sat around a circular table, trimming young summer radishes. Eunho turned his gaze toward the device on the table. It was a budget model, nothing expensive, but it gleamed with the shine of a brand-new item. "Yes..." Eunho…

- Eunho squirmed before slipping out of his embrace. Perhaps he felt embarrassed about crying, for he hurried to rub his eyes. He avoided Yeorok’s gaze and busied himself with the bedding. Even that simple movement appeared clumsy. “…Go to sleep now.” The way he patted the plump pillow was excessively unnatural. He was trying his best in his own way. Yeorok could not ignore his efforts, so he readily lay down. Eunho stood up, turned off the light, and returned. The sound of his bare feet…

- Eunho lectured him. He looked at Yeorok with a piercing gaze, asking if the man took him for someone so devoid of common sense. Yeorok eventually relented and gave a small nod. He moved closer and slid his legs under the covers. The blanket was still warm from Eunho’s body heat. The heat slowly seeped into Yeorok’s tense muscles. “……” The two sat side by side. They wasted time in a heavy silence. Neither could fall asleep immediately just because the bedding was ready. The atmosphere…

- “I should be going now.” Eunho carefully broke the silence. Yeorok sat propped up against the half-raised hospital bed. He had just finished a consultation with his doctor. He stared at Eunho without even a single blink. “Going where?” “Home, of course.” Eunho ignored the man's stunned expression. He gathered his changed clothes and stuffed them into a paper shopping bag. His voice and movements were calm. He acted as though this departure was the only natural…

He barely resisted the urge to leave the remaining monsters to handle one another and simply ran away. He figured everything was finally settled and he could rest soon. However, monsters were not the only enemies in this place. A knight approached with a grim expression to deliver a report. "Grand Duke, they are closing the gates of Borhumi Castle and driving out the external forces." These men had come to protect the capital from the monsters, so Borhumi should have provided support. Naturally,…- 315.1 K • Ongoing
