I Became the Companion of the Gods

98 – EP.23 One Night -1

After training with the eagle, we decided to go back to Suobi Village to enjoy the training camp, which was our original purpose. Did

I came here on a camp trip, but I didn’t play with the director or the agents, I did my own thing.

Chief Edwinner was kind of turning a blind eye to anything that had to do with me, so there shouldn’t be any problems.

Still, I don’t think it’s good for everyone to come here to make friends, but I’m the only one who’s into it.

Maybe even made me worry since I’ve been away for quite some time.

I tried to descend quickly, but as expected, there was someone grabbing my crotch.

“Seonju, can we stay one more night? Really just one night! Huh?”

“I’m sorry. I have a problem too….”

“Ugh… ! It’s too bad to send it like this.”

“I’ll come visit you next time. Can you please look at this?”

“When next?”

“Will it be in 100 years?”

“You mean you won’t come back forever!!”

Since he has lived for thousands of years, he thought that 100 years would be a short time.

But unfortunately, it seems that the sense of time is not different.

“Did you know that the average human lifespan is less than 100 years?”

“If you know that in detail, isn’t it impossible to get married? You automatically become a widow in 100 years?”

“If that’s the case, no problem! Intimidation of a divine beast related to time…. No, it’s enough to extend your lifespan by asking!”

“Sister, please refrain from actions that may incur the dislike of other divine beasts….”

“Animation? I can swear that such a thing will never happen!”

Didn’t you bury a divine beast just today?

Are you sure that there are no people who have a crush on you? ?

It was a sound I could think of.

“Anyway, not 100 years! Still covered step on me! Or sign a contract with me and go!”

“Then step on it….”

“Too much?!”

A situation where you can neither do this nor that.

No matter how you think about it, it was a regrettable substitute in many ways.

“Come on, let’s stop doing the unsightly things and move on. Madame.”

“Wait a minute! What are you doing! Crow?!”

“What are you doing, you have to go work with me from now on.”

“If it’s what you gave me, I finished it last time!”

“Besides that, there are other things you need to do.”

“No! I will never go!”

“Are you okay? It’s something I have to do for my husband, so I might be able to gain his liking, right?”

“Ah… !”

“Auntie knows you well now, right? There is no Shinsoo who will take you seriously in the Shinsoo world, and among animals that are not Shinsoos, Nanggun is the only male who can accept Ajumma.”

“Ugh… !!”

“Wait a minute Yata. What do you mean? I regret your personality, but aren’t there many people who will like you enough if you don’t reveal your true identity?”

Hresbel’s human form is a beautiful blonde-haired beauty.

As long as she keeps her mouth shut, she has a mysterious atmosphere, a noble figure, and even a mouth-watering body.

Belongs to the most beautiful among humans.

Even if divine beasts don’t care about appearance, in the human world, there are plenty of people who say that it’s possible as long as it’s beautiful.

“My dear, unfortunately. No matter how weakly the power of the great number is adjusted, the level of a human being will be ruined. It’s like when we accidentally step on an ant while walking down the street and kill it.”

“Well, wouldn’t that put me in danger too?”

“In the case of Nang-gun, his physical abilities have been somewhat strengthened by borrowing some of the Shinsoo’s abilities, so it’s okay.”

“In short, as a precondition for living with the great master, you need to sign a temporary contract with another priest, are you saying that?”

“It’s not wrong, but in fact, I think Nanggun is the only one who can leave everything behind and sign a contract with Shinsoo and his partner?”

“Right. Shipowner, you are the first case in history where a Shinsoo and another animal signed a contract as companions.”

“Does that mean that only I can make a companion contract with Shinsoo?”

“Right. That’s why this lady, who has been swindled by all the gods, flirts with her like that.”

I understood at once.

Normally, if you’ve been rejected for so long, you’ll quit because of your pride.

I wonder if it was because I was the only one who was constantly courting Hresbelg.

“I’m sorry, but I’m not courting you because you’re last. So I hope you don’t misunderstand anything like that.”

“What? Wasn’t that the reason?”

“Of course not! Of course, at the first meeting, the young man showed rudeness because it had been a while…. To be honest, I’m the type who thinks about things and pushes them!”

“Then why would I… ?”

“I knew it right away when I saw you and your pets. You love and care for all of your companions without discrimination, so that’s why you’re courting! Because I want to be a woman who is loved! I hate pattern-only companionship.”

As if there wasn’t an inch of lies in what he said just now, there was a wave of conviction in Hresbelg’s eyes.

I say it so firmly, it would be rude to doubt more here.

“How is it? What about a confident woman like me? Isn’t it attractive enough to make you want to get married right away? Huh?”

“Not at all.”

“Ugh… !! Why?”

That single goofy word was eating away at her image.

Everything is good, but why take a step in a strange direction…. I’m curious about everything.

“Isn’t it because you choose to do only pathetic things? So please follow me If you help me, maybe the day will come when Nanggun will recognize your charms, right?”

“Is that true?”

“Believe it or not, it’s up to you. You haven’t forgotten who I am, have you?”

“Oh, okay! I can’t help it!”

As soon as the eagle accepted the offer, the crow hung her mouth long as if to say, ‘You’ve been caught!’

Alice and Miho, including me who watched this scene, must have all been thinking the same thing.

It’s evil….

“That’s why, my dear! Me and Hresbelg will do some work for a while!”

“Okay, should I take care of myself?”

“Don’t worry! Because I have the confidence to avoid my crisis better than anyone else.”

“Well, that is also true. And my sister too….”

“Why didn’t I talk?!”

“That’s because my sister is so strong….”

Remembering the instant death of the saber tiger, I wonder if I shouldn’t worry about Hresbelg, but about Shinsoo who touched her heart.

Still, if you say these words honestly, you will be disappointed.

I also said goodbye to Hresbelg, telling him to take care of himself.

“Thank you for your concern!”

“Not much to say.”

“And the owner of the ship.”

“Yes?”

“Even though I am constantly being rejected by you, I will never give up this time. No matter how many thousands of years pass, I will stick with you until I connect with you, so just know that.”

“Ah, yes….”

Contrary to his regretful appearance, Hresbelg declared quite seriously and quietly.

At such a surprising appearance, I was shaken by myself this time.

How would it have been if Hresbelg had been consistently like that? Would she have rejected her?

I don’t even know that.

It was just that she was the most beautiful and charming figure I had ever seen, and it just became deeply embedded in my brain.

***

After sending Yata and Hresbelg away, I and my companions were returning to Suobi Village as planned.

In the meantime, Cor, who went to call Hati, returned to her side, but for some reason she was alone.

“Hati is out of office?”

“Yes, I looked all the way around Hati’s cave, but I couldn’t find it…” !”

“I see. Then there is nothing you can do.”

“I’m sorry I couldn’t bring you Hati….”

“No, it’s okay! In fact, the work that required Hati ended in a bland way.”

He called Hati to get help in case there was a problem with the Yeti and Wendigo’s mediation.

However, it was solved in a strange way and it was no longer necessary, so it was rather a waste of time for Cor.

“I see… ?”

“Yeah, so don’t worry about not being able to bring them. Rather, thank you for all your hard work for me, Cor.”

“Ah…. I-I don’t mind this much… ! Lol… !!”

I lightly hugged the wolf’s body for Kor’s hard work.

Cor, who ran a very long distance without stopping, was the one who suffered the most.

I’m sorry for being shabby, but right now there’s no other way to express my gratitude.

Fortunately, however, a soft, happy smile hung on Cor’s lips.

“Kuhm! West? Shouldn’t we go down before it’s too late? Will the sun set soon?”

“Yes, yes! Let’s go!”

I forgot about it for a while.

I know that expressing affection to other pets in front of Miho is something that should be avoided if possible….

At least it was a wolf that even the fox acknowledged, so it ended with Miho’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

If the person hugged was Alice or Yata…. It wouldn’t have ended with a pouty face.

“Oh… ?”

As I descended the mountain while thinking about various things, I arrived at Suobi Village before I knew it.

But for some reason, the atmosphere in the town was so desolate and quiet that it felt like being in a ghost town.

A street with no human presence, buildings with all lights off, and objects lying on the floor.

Until yesterday morning, I doubted if it was the village that was bustling with people.

“Seonlord, I quickly looked around the village, but no one was there….!”

“It has become a bleak town.”

“I see…. What the hell happened in one day? Did an avalanche happen again?”

To find out the situation, he turned on his cell phone, but unfortunately, the cell phone’s radio waves were already dead.

The cause was presumed to be a downed telephone pole and a broken communication line.

There was no way to grasp the current situation.

“Yuu… ! I am sleepy….”

“Well, what should I do?”

“Because once you do, you lose. Why don’t you spend the night at the mountain hut you reserved as a lodging?”

“I have no choice but to do that.”

The sun falling over the mountain we came down from.

It was beautiful to see the pure white snow dyed orange, but the town was in such a mess that I didn’t feel like being sentimental.

I had no choice but to return to the cabin where I checked in with the divine beasts.

This place had already become an uninhabited lodge with no employees and no directors and agents who had come as a party.

“As expected, the power is out….”

“Gas and water are coming out normally. Shall I make you some warm tea, Mr. Seo?”

“Yes. Please.”

“Sailor, I lit a fire in the fireplace… ! This will warm you up a bit… !!”

“Thanks, Cor.”

I couldn’t use the heating or other convenient features because the electricity and communication devices were down.

Still, thanks to the many facilities still available, I thought I could manage to spend the night.

“Whoa… ! It’s a cold northern area, but it’s quite cold maybe because it’s midwinter.”

“If it’s really cold, may I lend you my tail?”

“Can I?”

“Of course! As long as it can warm your body, is it okay to use my tail as much as you like?”

“You can use my tail too… !!”

“Then I’ll borrow your tails for a while.”

“”Yes!””

While hugging Tia, who was sleeping soundly, I leaned Miho’s fluffy tail on my back and put the soft tail of Cor on my lap instead of a blanket.

The tails of the two divine beasts have different tactile sensations, but they are warm in common.

Thanks to that, I was able to forget about the cold for a while.

It was so comfortable that you wouldn’t know when you fell asleep.

“Come to think of it, Mr. Seo.”

“Huh?”

“Didn’t you forget that you decided to pet me a lot tonight?”

“Oh… !”

“Uhuhu♡ Come to think of it, I learned that skin to skin is the best thing when it’s cold, but where should I try it?”

“Now, hold on… !!”

“Sir. If it’s okay, me too… !”

“Cor, even you… ?!”

“I got excited from the moment the ship owner hugged me a while ago…. I’m sorry… ♡”

The two divine beasts are slowly getting closer to me.

Before, I learned painfully that dealing with wolves and foxes at the same time in the hot spring town was very difficult.

That day I could taste the feeling of being squeezed to the very marrow.

Since we are now in a situation where the memories of that day come again, the problem is not the village, but the current situation.

A situation where the tails already wrapped around my body prevent me from escaping even if I try to slip away.

The time when I was about to give up, sensing that I had been f*cked up.

– Clink!!

Suddenly, the window next to the front door was broken, and something with a heavy shape entered the cabin.

The human-looking figure slowly raised its crouched body.

The figure opened its bloody mouth with an ugly face that could never be considered human.

And then….

“Keee!!”

At us, they screamed as if their vocal chords were going to break.

A vampire that looks like something you would only see in a movie.

Pale skin, pointed ears and teeth, and long fingernails were really vampires themselves.

Even his eyes were red, he was a true bloodthirsty maniac.

The problem was that there were so many lunatics outside the broken windows, it was a sight that would have screamed and trembled.

It was a cliché that had to come out at the point where I personally experienced a scene from a horror movie.

Unfortunately, there was someone more terrifying than them.

“Ah, ah… !!”

A fox with red eyes wide open like a vampire, and a wolf who started to burn his hair.

And even a baby dragon forced to wake up from a blissful sleep by the raucous appearance of vampires.

They were victims whose happy time was stolen by vampires.

“Moki, kiikiiik?!”

I don’t know why vampire-like beings suddenly appeared in this world, but I just want to say this.

‘Guys, you’ve come to the wrong place… !’

This is not the world of a horror movie.
