Chapter 148

1st Floor Living Room.

Guburi stood stiffly in place, fists clenched tightly, staring straight into Min Neong’s eyes and shouted.

“Ah, hello!”

[Hey! That’s not it! Don’t stutter, just say hello clearly! Like this!]

As Min Neong furrowed his brow and pressed him, Guburi frowned and shouted again.

“Angnyeong!”

[Your pronunciation is all messed up! Again!]

“Annyeon!!”

[Again!]

“Ssipnyeon!”

[Again!!]

“Annyeong!!!”

[Oh! That’s it! See, you can do it!]

What they’re doing right now is basically a training session to correct Guburi’s pronunciation. Guburi’s pronunciation gets seriously messed up whenever he makes eye contact with someone.

【Qkrnfl892】─Angnyeong!! LOL.

【Handsome Licker】─Guburi is so cute. ㅠㅠ Lick lick.

【Yoho】─Stop licking already.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Did he just say “ssipnyeon” in the middle? Did I hear that wrong?

【Maehwa Tree】─I wonder if that kind of thing actually works.

【Cat-eared Woman】─It probably does~

【Big Girl】─Seeing it like this, his condition really is serious.

【Meng Yao】─That seems like a disease.

【Min Ji】─Is he a retard?

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow! Why is it so serious? Isn’t he usually fine when he doesn’t make eye contact or when he’s on the phone?

【Drifting AI】─I’ll explain. He gets extremely nervous when making eye contact, which causes his pronunciation to slur.

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─At least talking to Min Neong isn’t as bad as I thought.

【Qkrnfl892】─That?

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─It’s way better than when he talks to Se-hoon.

【Qkrnfl892】─Yeah, I agree.

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─And it seems a bit better than when he talks to me too. Guess he’s more comfortable with yokai than humans.

Meanwhile, during the first phase of the Guburi Rehabilitation Project.

*Rustle-!*

The balcony door opened roughly, and a blonde woman took off her shoes and entered the house. She moved as naturally as if she were coming into her own home.

“Se-hoon, I’m here.”

“…For a second, I thought you were a burglar and almost took you down.”

【Maehwa Tree】─This crazy woman just barges in without knocking.

【Qkrnfl892】─I’m here, LOL. If you’re a guest, act like one. Damn it.

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─LOL, she’s so natural, it’s not even awkward.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─I was startled. Thought it was another robber.

【Handsome Licker】─She does look like a foreign robber. Lick lick.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow! She came in through the route I always use!

【Yoho】─That person isn’t normal either.

【Min Ji】─You just realized that? I’m the only normal one in this broadcast.

【Drifting AI】─LOL.

【Big Girl】─You came so quickly. Did you miss Se-hoon that much?

【Meng Yao】─She’s just fast. She stopped by Se-hoon’s place earlier, just picked up an experiment subject, and left.

The blonde woman was none other than Jujijoa. As she walked towards me, she glanced at the sleeping Posun and Popo and said,

“They’re already asleep… Did they eat too much?”

[I’m alive, Reubang.]

“Not alive, just awake.”

[Reubang Reubang. That’s also correct. By the way, is that luggage food, Reubang?]

“It’s not food, so don’t get interested.”

[Too bad. Reubang…]

Reubang didn’t show any wariness towards Juji. It was as if they were acquainted. They were naturally having a conversation.

Maybe when I was out shopping, she came to pick up the robber I tied to the tree and greeted the yokai in the house separately? That thought crossed my mind, so I asked Juji.

“What? Juji, did you meet Reubang earlier?”

“No? I just picked up the experiment subject and left right away. I’ve never met her before.”

They were talking so familiarly that I thought they knew each other, but that wasn’t the case. They just both have good social skills, I guess.

“Anyway, here. I brought all of Guburi’s luggage.”

Juji put down the large backpack she was carrying on her shoulder.

It was a pretty big backpack, but for all the moving luggage, it was relatively small.

“Did you bring everything?”

“Yeah. I didn’t leave anything behind, even the trash. I swept it all up. I didn’t want you to complain about missing something.”

“Really? Guess there wasn’t much luggage to begin with… Anyway, thanks. Good job.”

While I was thanking Juji, Min Neong’s eyes sparkled as he saw Juji, and he quickly flew around her, wagging his tail and talking.

[Oh wow. A new person has arrived! Hello!]

“Hi.”

[Your hair color is so pretty!]

“Thanks.”

[What’s your name?]

“Juji… No, Olivia.”

[Juji-not-Olivia! Your name is so pretty too!]

Juji gave short answers to Min Neong’s questions. She didn’t seem interested in Min Neong.

“Se-hoon, I brought the luggage, so I’ll be going now.”

With that, Juji waved her hand and walked towards the balcony, disappearing in an instant without giving anyone a chance to stop her.

“…Why is she in such a hurry? I was going to offer her a cola.”

【Meng Yao】─Offering cola? LOL.

【Handsome Licker】─Juji is acting all cool. Lick lick.

【Min Ji】─Ugh… So cringy. Does she think she looks cool like that?

【Drifting AI】─I’ll say it. She did look cool.

【Maehwa Tree】─Why didn’t she say goodbye to Guburi? She should’ve slapped the back of his head before leaving.

【Qkrnfl892】─For real, she just dropped off the luggage and left without a second thought.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Did Guburi not see Jujijoa?

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─Nah, that guy saw Juji. He just pretended not to. LOL.

[Ehh… She just left. She could’ve stayed a bit longer.]

Min Neong also seemed disappointed. It seemed Min Neong liked Jujijoa as much as he liked Guburi.

【Yoho】─Min Neong seems to like any human, huh?

【Cat-eared Woman】─Maybe he just likes pretty and handsome people.

【Min Ji】─Then he wouldn’t like Guburi, right?

Anyway, since the luggage has arrived, it’s time to assign Guburi a room.

“Guburi, come here. Take this and let’s go up to the 2nd floor.”

Guburi didn’t respond. When I looked over, he was secretly doing something with the maid.

[Wow, hurry up and sign.]

“Okay…”

I quickly walked over to them and snatched the paper from Guburi’s hand.

“What are you doing so engrossed? What’s this?”

As I said that, I took a look at the paper.

Turns out, it was an extension of some make-believe game called the Warkyarpa Family. I told them to educate Guburi, and they’re doing this nonsense.

“Let’s play make-believe later.”

[Got it.]

“By the way, Maid, I never signed this. Why is my signature here?”

[Oh, Warkyarpa… Guburi must have accidentally signed there!]

As the maid answered, Guburi gave her a resentful look and fiddled with his phone.

【Rehabilitated Guburi】─Stop talking nonsense, you damn teddy bear.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Warkyarpa! Guburi is so startled he’s tapping his phone like crazy!

【Handsome Licker】─LOL, Guburi is so cute~ Lick lick.

The membership agreement also had Reubangyi’s signature.

I don’t know why she signed it. She’s supposed to leave for another world soon anyway.

Yokai are such mysterious creatures.

“Anyway…”

I handed the paper back to the maid and turned to Guburi.

“Guburi, grab that luggage and follow me to the 2nd floor. I’ll assign you a room.”

【Rehabilitated Guburi】─Okay, sex.

Guburi immediately ran to his luggage after typing that in the chat.

Then he started struggling to lift the backpack.

“Ugh… Eek!”

【Maehwa Tree】─What are you doing?

【Se-hoon Defense Team】─LOL, looks like he can’t lift it.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow! She’s really hopeless!

【Reverse Rape Mania】─I don’t think I could lift that either. The backpack is too big.

【Handsome Licker】─Guburi, hang in there! Lick lick!

Seems like he lacks the strength to lift it.

The more I look at him, the more I sigh.

“…Just go up to the 2nd floor first. I’ll carry the backpack.”

【Rehabilitated Guburi】─Sex.

I had no choice but to carry the luggage for him.

***

We went up to the 2nd floor to assign a room.

Guburi was looking around the hallway, trying to decide which room to use.

【Maehwa Tree】─Hurry up and pick one.

【Qkrnfl892】─He’s really shopping for rooms.

【Min Ji】─He must have decision-making issues.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─I wish I could have a room too.

【Rehabilitated Guburi】─Okay, decided. F***ing sex! This will be my room from now on!

【Yoho】─Why is he suddenly so excited? ㅡㅡ

Guburi timidly pointed to a room. It was far from the maid’s room but close to mine.

【Min Ji】─?? That’s close to Se-hoon’s room.

【Yoho】─Are you crazy? Pick somewhere else. ㅡㅡ

【Handsome Licker】─LOL, what a sly guy. Lick lick.

【Drifting AI】─I’ll say it. I’ll install 100 surveillance cameras in Guburi’s room.

【Meng Yao】─At least it’s not right next to or in front of your room. LOL.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─He probably chose a slightly distant room so he wouldn’t hear you masturbating.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow! It’s right next to the room where I keep my condoms!

“So you want to use this room?”

【Rehabilitated Guburi】─Yeah, this seems good.

“Alright. Let’s go in and unpack your stuff.”

I opened the door to the room Guburi chose and went in. Then I carefully put down the backpack I was carrying and started unpacking.

But the moment I checked the contents…

“……”

“…Huh?”

Both Guburi and I froze.

【Yoho】─Yikes…

【Min Ji】─Ew, that’s so gross.

【Jujijoa】─LOL.

【Handsome Licker】─Lick lick.

The backpack was filled with a pile of tissues emitting a musty smell.
