Beyond the alley, a familiar man stood with a woman. Cheol-ho, who thought she was his lover, shook his head soon because the woman was wearing a school uniform. Is it one of those students…?
She looks much younger.
As a side note, schools of this era were no longer inclined in education as much as they used to in the past.
They divide the lineup from the presence or absence of the talent of the “Awakened One”, the most important in this era, and conduct education accordingly. It can be said that it serves as the former elementary and junior high school.
‘It’s his daughter.’
It’s rude to watch this. A woman’s voice was heard again. Cheol-ho swiftly turned his head to the direction of the voice.
-Daddy, what the hell is wrong with you? Please don’t come to the observation class! Please! I’m embarrassed! That’s what happened earlier! Why did you show up like that in front of those kids?
Hmmm..
-You eat and eat every day! Dad always eats! No matter how powerful the urge to eat is! Can’t you stand it a little? Do you even love me?
Cheol-ho activated his detect eye and looked at the little girl.
-Class: Healing
-Class Achievement: None.
-Learning ability: Award
Healing ability?
The awakening of the healing ability was an amazing ability, a considerable high-ranking ability.
Soon sobs were heard from the man. Cheol-ho sat down on the floor. Somehow, looking at them made him remember something.
-Mijin, that’s not it, your Dad…
The man’s voice sank.
Soon there was a long sigh and a tramping of footsteps.
Cheol-ho shook his head with his arms crossed. And he turned to khan whose ears were prickling up
“Khan.”
“What?”
Cheol-ho looked at tangerine, whose eyelids were gradually closing, and nodded.
“Take tangerine in and put him to sleep. The guest is on his way.”
Khan held up tangerine with his mouth. And with a broad smile, he went into the room, kissing tangerine’s cheeks repeatedly.

The man was in low spirits today.
Cheol-ho looked down at him. He was a happy man, but today, he was a little down.
The man sat absent-mindedly, just staring down at the table the whole time.
Cheol-ho did not say anything to him.
Sometimes, it’s better to stay silent. There are times when I appreciate silence and this man needed it.
The man who had been sitting for a long time finallt spoke up.
“Sir, please give me a bottle of soju.”
Cheol-ho laughed bitterly.
“Sure.”
Instead of ordering ramen, he ordered soju.
He only drank soju without touching the beef jerky that was served as a snack. By the time the two bottles were emptied, the man quietly spoke.
“My daughter’s school is having a parent-visiting day soon.”
“Observation class.”
“Yes, I heard that parents are attending their children’s classes.
“…….”
The man gulped down the soju and laughed bitterly.
“I don’t think I should go anyway.”
“…….”
Cheol-ho said nothing to him.
The man smiled to himself.
“I’m a 7th class awakener. I’ve awakened the ability to attack, but it’s significantly lower than other people. So I don’t even have a raid party and can’t go to other raid teams. I always work so that i can provide everything for my daughter. ”
Suddenly, his voice went low.
“My daughter, on the other hand, was awakened to thi ability at an early age, and was recognized as a third-class talent. My daughter’s class is also an honor class, and when she graduates, she’ll probably be treated well by the Awakening Society. Usually the parents of such exceptional children are high class awakeners. The awakening takes over the lineage.
“…….”
It was as if opportunities and luck were given to those who didnt deserve it.
Discrimination becomes more severe in turbulent times. The ability determines the human class, and discrimination in that gap is only getting wider and wider.
The daughter would have hated her father, who looked incompetent.
He may not like himself being compared to the parents of his best friends. At the same time, he would hate himself for being ashamed of himself.
It can be so at such a young age? Cheol-ho listened quietly.
The man’s stomach suddenly growled.
Extreme hunger hit the man. The man laughed, grasping his stomach.
“I’m still hungry. Hahaha, damn it. Aha ha ha! If I don’t eat, I’ll die. If I die, what about my daughter?”
The laugh somehow sounded like crying. The man laughed so bitterly.
“I’m… …the same useless man.”
However, you’re wrong about that.
Cheol-ho turned around without saying a word.
He headed to the kitchen and looked at the eavesdropping Khan. he opened his eyes wide in shock when he saw Cheol-ho.
“Khan.”
“What’s the matter?”
“May I have your brother’s skin?”
Khan stepped back in surprise.
“You! Are you finally going to eat him?! Did you wait until he gained weight? Was he meant to be fattened then eaten?
“…….”
Cheol-ho smiled and held his forehead.
“It’s a joke.”
-bubble bubble
Ramen is boiling.
Cheol-ho grumbled and said to Khan, who was pouting.
“He’s shedding away anyway.”
“…….yes.”
“That shell is useless. It’s not as useful as dragon scales.”
“…….yes.”
“Then I can make it useful”
“I tried to keep tangerine’s shed skin every time he shedded his skin.
Khans grumbles were heard as Cheol-ho started to slice the shedded skin
In the Esfan continent, dragons used to make potions using skins that have been shed. Potions are sold at a very high price, and are very effective in healing.
“Anyway, it’s good that the dragon has nothing to throw away.”
Khan flinched, hearing Cheol-ho’s words
First of all
Put the skin over the fire as if to roast it. Sprinkle salt and seasonings when it starts to break.
The skin broke like a crispy piece of seaweed. And I sprinkled it on top of the finished ramen.
A fantastic decoration was made.
Cheol-ho walked to the man with a huge bowl of ramen.
“It’s ramen. Have a nice meal!”
“……ha, but-“
“I’m serving.”
The man looked at Cheol-ho for a long time, then bowed his head and lifted the chopsticks.
Only the sound of the man slurping noodles was heard. He was holding back his tears while eating the noodles. Sounds of held back sobs were heard but Cheol-ho pretended not to hear it.
The man stood up from his seat. Then he brought out a wrinkled bill from his pocket.
“…thank you for listening to me, sir.”
“Don’t mention it.”
Cheol-ho looked at his back with a quiet smile. Somehow it reminded him of his father’s back.
What did my father think about 30 years ago?
I don’t know.
Cheol-ho has never been a father. But he will live as a father in the future.
“Customer.”
The man who was about to open the door looked at Cheol-ho with weak eyes.
“It’s not easy to live. Life is full of things that aren’t easy.”
The man had a hazy smile.
“But, still.”
Cheol-ho continued, staring at him with his arms crossed.
“For people who work hard every day, good things will happen to them soon.”
“…….”
Do your best to survive tomorrow.
I’ll be waiting as always.
At Cheol-ho’s words, the man’s eyes were slightly alive. He nodded with his lips pursed.
The world is full of unfairness.
Always is, always was.
It’s hard to live in a world of perfect people.
So I gave him a little help.
Cheol-ho smiled quietly and watched his customers back.
I hope you do your best tomorrow.
Maybe, a different world will unfold.
“Why hasn’t anything changed?”
Whispered khan.
In other words, i helped him as much as i could. Having eaten the dragon’s shed skin, it must have helped him.”
“But nothing has changed. why?”
At Khan’s question, Cheol-ho shrugged.
“We’ll see.”
