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…- 279.8 K • Completed
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
- Click. Clack. A clattering sound reached my ears. However, my eyes felt far too heavy to open, even if a bomb were to detonate right beside me. I was exhausted. My body did not necessarily ache, but a mental fatigue weighed down on me like dozens of kilograms of lead. It felt as though I could drift into an eternal sleep. Unfortunately, the needlessly helpful Mo informed me of my surroundings. I immediately opened my eyes. I scrambled to grab the duvet and pull it over myself. I was an…

- "I can get you into that meeting. But first, you must make a promise to me." "I am listening." "Even if you find the traitor, do not try to kill them on the spot." Her serious tone made me chuckle. "I obviously cannot kill someone in front of a crowd. I will wait for a chance when they are alone and then…" "Must you kill them?" Doctor Kim watched the smile fade from my face. She looked at me with a searching curiosity. "My instinct was right. Revenge matters more to you than saving…
