Chapter 151

The color of the orb changed from blue to red.

This was the signal that the Drifting Restaurant had opened.

I pocketed the orb, wrapped the omelet rice with plastic wrap again, and stood up.

—

**[Yoho]** — Aren’t you going to eat?

**[Minji]** — Eat before you go.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Eat before you go, you bastard.

—

**[BigGirl]** — Are you skipping because you’re worried about being late?

**[Qkrnfl892]** — Se-hoon, why are you eating so damn fast?

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]** — Lol, he eats faster than most food fighters.

—

**[Jujijoa]** — Eating that won’t make you late.

—

“It’s not that I’m skipping because I’m worried about being late. I’m skipping to keep my stomach empty. I’m going to a restaurant, after all. If I’m going to eat there, I should go on an empty stomach.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — ?? So you’re saying you’re not going to eat what I cooked? You wanna die?

**[Semen Thief]** — Did Guburi cook that?

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Call me Guburi-nim, you bitch.

**[Semen Thief]** — Yes!

—

“Who said I’m throwing it away? I put the omelet rice in the fridge to heat up and eat later, so don’t get mad.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Shut up. You’re not getting breakfast anymore. Bye.

**[Balloon Gum Collector]** — Wow, Guburi’s throwing a tantrum.

**[Drifting AI]** — I’ll say it. If Gye Se-hoon doesn’t get breakfast, Gyeongsaeng Guburi’s life is on the line.

—

“No, I said I’ll eat it later. Why are you throwing a fit?”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — ㅗㅗ

**[Maehwa Tree]** — The girl’s throwing a fit over nothing.

**[Minji]** — She’s a crybaby, huh?

—

“…Fine. I’ll eat before I go, so calm down.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — ㅗㅗㅗ

—

“Calm down, you damn bitch.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Okay…

**[Yoho]** — The Room Master is really soft on Gyeongsaeng-nim. ㅡㅡ

**[Minji]** — Right? Favoritism is wrong!!

—

**[Balloon Gum Collector]** — Wow, maybe Se-hoon’s just become nicer than before?

**[Jujijoa]** — Yeah, seems like it. He doesn’t swear as much these days.

—

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — He just did.

**[BigGirl]** — He means the frequency has decreased.

—

**[Maehwa Tree]** — Maybe Se-hoon’s been rehabilitated too.

**[Drifting AI]** — I’ll say it. It’s a very good change.

—

I sat back down.

I decided to eat the omelet rice after all.

It was only right to appreciate Guburi’s effort of cooking early in the morning.

Well, eating this one thing won’t fill me up, so it should be fine.

—

“Anyway, Defense Team. Can you come to my place?”

—

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]** — Yeah, I’m already opening a portal.

—

“Really? Thanks. You’re quick as always.”

—

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — Why are you calling the Defense Team all of a sudden?

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]** — To find the location of the Drifting Restaurant, we’ll probably need to channel magic into that orb. Se-hoon doesn’t have magic, so I’ll do it for him.

**[Minji]** — Then Min Neong isn’t needed. Just use the Defense Team’s portal.

—

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — Can’t Guburi do it? He’s a wizard too.

**[BigGirl]** — Guburi-nim is a fake wizard.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Huh? I’m a real wizard, you bitch.

—

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]** — Guburi’s still not skilled enough to handle magic. He might break the orb, so it’s better if I do it.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — You’re really disrespecting me. Let’s have a magic battle later, you bitch.

—

**[Minji]** — Where does Guburi-nim’s confidence even come from?

**[Qkrnfl892]** — Probably from the internet. Lol.

—

So I slowly ate breakfast while waiting for the Defense Team to arrive.

—

***

After finishing the meal.

I gathered all the yokai who were leaving today in the living room.

—

[Are we finally leaving today?]

[I’m excited, Popo.]

—

Posun and Popo had bright smiles on their faces.

They seemed thrilled at the prospect of going to the yokai world.

By the way.

I had already said goodbye to Guburi and the other yokai on the 2nd floor.

—

“Guys, even if we go to the Drifting Restaurant, if the negotiation fails or there are no guests from the yokai world, we might not be able to go. So don’t get your hopes up too much.”

—

**[Qkrnfl892]** — Lol, it’s not even confirmed yet, and you’re already so excited.

**[Minji]** — The bigger the expectation, the bigger the disappointment.

—

[Okay! I won’t get my hopes up!]

[Got it, Popo!]

—

They answered like that, but Posun and Popo still had eyes full of anticipation.

—

‘…I’ll have to negotiate hard so the kids aren’t disappointed.’

—

With that thought, I glanced at the pile of boxes in the living room.

Ten boxes of cola.

They were the items I’d use as negotiation material at the Drifting Restaurant today.

—

‘Since they said cola was valuable last time, bringing ten boxes should be enough to get most requests granted.’

—

There were two things to negotiate.

First, to allow multiple people to enter the restaurant.

The Drifting Restaurant only allows one person per world to enter.

Second, to let us cross over to other worlds by following other guests.

It’s just a guess.

But I think the restaurant might prohibit guests from crossing over to other worlds.

—

After organizing the negotiation points in my head, I subtly turned my head to look at Reubangyi.

—

‘But why does she seem so quiet?’

—

For some reason.

Reubangyi’s expression didn’t look good.

It seemed somewhat gloomy.

I don’t know why she’s making that face when she was the first to say she wanted to go to another world.

—

“Reubangyi, what’s wrong? Did something upset you?”

[No, Reubang.]

“Then why do you look so down?”

[This is just my usual face, Reubang.]

—

**[Qkrnfl892]** — What do you mean usual? Lol, she looks so gloomy.

**[Handsome Licker]** — Maybe she’s sad about leaving. *Lick.*

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — Is it because she won’t get to eat Guburi’s cooking?

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Lol, this stone bitch knows what’s tasty. Anyway, fewer mouths to feed, so I’m happy~

—

It still seemed strange, but since Reubangyi herself said it was nothing, I decided not to press further.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — By the way, Gye Sekkihoon, aren’t you taking Min Neong with you?

—

“Why would I take Min Neong? She has to keep an eye on you.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Lol, damn.

**[Minji]** — Min Neong-nim never said she wanted to go to another world anyway. We can just use the Defense Team’s portal.

**[Qkrnfl892]** — He probably just wanted to leave Min Neong behind. Lol.

—

**[Balloon Gum Collector]** — Wow! But where’s the maid? What’s she doing now?

—

**[Drifting AI]** — I’ll say it. The maid is currently in the room next to Guburi’s, playing alone with a condom.

**[Balloon Gum Collector]** — ?? Why is she playing with my condom, you crazy bitch.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — For real? That maid bitch is so pitiful. I should just bring her to my room.

—

**[Semen Thief]** — I’ve been curious, what’s the Drifting Restaurant?

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — You’ll know when you see it, you damn bitch. Don’t ask unnecessary questions unless you want to get hit.

**[Semen Thief]** — Yes.

—

“By the way, when is the Defense Team coming?”

—

**[Qkrnfl892]** — Lol, is he taking all day to make the portal?

**[Minji]** — If he’s late, let’s smash his pot.

**[Maehwa Tree]** — Minji, why are you so violent?

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — It’d be funny if the Defense Team came in through the balcony like Juji. Lol.

—

**[Se-hoon Defense Team]** — I’m here.

—

At that moment, as the Defense Team’s chat appeared, a small sound of footsteps came from the stairs connected to the 2nd floor.

When I turned my gaze to the stairs, I saw a red-haired woman walking down with her hands behind her back.

She met my eyes, smiled brightly, and waved.

—

“The snow here has already melted… Oh? Hi, Se-hoon.”

—

It was the Se-hoon Defense Team.

Judging by her appearance, it seemed she had connected the portal inside the house, on the 2nd floor, instead of outside.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Why is that damn bitch coming down from the 2nd floor?

**[Handsome Licker]** — She probably set up the portal on the 2nd floor. *Lick.*

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — More shocking than the balcony.

—

**[Jujijoa]** — Look at her with her hands behind her back. So arrogant.

**[Minji]** — Let’s smash her pot.

**[Yoho]** — Why are you always smashing things?

—

After coming down the stairs, the Defense Team casually greeted the yokai and then turned her gaze to me.

—

“By the way, Se-hoon. Are you going to cross over to another world with the yokai too?”

“Huh? How did you know?”

“It just seemed like it.”

—

**[Minji]** — Are you going with them, Se-hoon-nim? You’re not planning to move to another world, are you?

**[Maehwa Tree]** — Why are you worrying so much? He’s probably just going for a short trip. It’s not every day you get the chance to go to another world.

—

**[Jujijoa]** — Will the broadcast work in another world?

**[BigGirl]** — It worked last time at the Drifting Restaurant, so it should work in another world too.

**[Drifting AI]** — I’ll say it. You can broadcast from anywhere. Praise me one more time.

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Damn, now he’s going to another world to broadcast.

**[Semen Thief]** — Another world?! Wow, a broadcast from another world would be so fun!!!

—

**[BigGirl]** — Today’s content is going to be a hit.

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — Right. I never dreamed I’d get to see another world in my lifetime.

—

**[Meng Yao]** — Every piece of content is so unreal.

**[Qkrnfl892]** — Lol, and you’d never see this kind of thing outside of Se-hoon’s broadcast.

**[Handsome Licker]** — Next, he’ll probably go to another planet. *Lick.*

—

The Defense Team paused for a moment, then continued.

—

“So, since we can’t wait for the Drifting Restaurant to open again when we come back… I was thinking of just opening a portal for you…”

—

For some reason, the Defense Team couldn’t meet my eyes.

It wasn’t a strange request, so I didn’t know why she was acting like this.

—

“I’d appreciate that.”

—

I thanked her out of courtesy.

Actually, I had planned to return using the Defense Team from the start.

I wouldn’t be able to find the coordinates of the Drifting Restaurant on my own when coming back.

—

“But why are you so shy?”

“Well, it’s… Actually, to open a portal, I need a trace of you. Since it’s a world neither I nor my friend have been to.”

“A trace? Didn’t you take some of my hair last time?”

“That’s not enough. I can’t just rip out a bunch of your hair, so I need another trace… No, an item…”

—

The Defense Team avoided my gaze again as she trailed off.

—

**[Jujijoa]** — What is she trying to ask for that’s making her so shy?

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Probably pubic hair?

**[Yoho]** — Gasp.

**[Handsome Licker]** — *Lick?!*

**[Minji]** — Are you crazy? This is sexual harassment. ㅡㅡ

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — You pervert. Se-hoon, let’s rip out the Defense Team’s pubic hair instead.

—

After checking the chat, I asked if she really needed hair from my private area.

—

“You’re not saying you need hair from my… you know, down there, are you?”

“No! I don’t need that! Do I look like some pervert to you?”

“Then what do you need?”

“…Underwear. Something you’ve worn at least once.”

—

**[Minji]** — Are you trying to die?

**[Semen Thief]** — Lol, she’s such a pervert.

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Damn, this bitch is crazy.

—

“What? You were shy over that?”

—

The request wasn’t a big deal.

Why be shy over underwear?

I could give her as much as she wanted without a second thought.

—

“As long as you’re not asking for what I’m wearing right now, it’s fine. What I’m wearing is a bit dirty, so I’d rather not give that.”

“Thanks. Just something you’ve worn before is enough. Preferably panties…”

“Got it. I’ll get a clean pair from the maid later.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — She’s boldly asking for panties, damn criminal.

**[Handsome Licker]** — She wasn’t that bold. *Lick.*

**[BigGirl]** — Well, it’s a necessary part, so let’s just accept it.

—

**[Minji]** — Why are you getting the panties from the maid?

**[Reverse Rape Mania]** — That maid bitch, is she secretly hoarding Se-hoon’s underwear?

**[Jujijoa]** — Seems like it. Perverted teddy bear bitch.

—

**[BigGirl]** — Everyone’s imagination is running wild.

**[Qkrnfl892]** — Lol, she probably just knows where the underwear is, so she’s getting it from her.

—

**[Minji]** — Still, asking for underwear is just as perverted as asking for pubic hair.

**[Yoho]** — Right. There are things like socks, so why specifically panties? It’s suspicious. What are you going to use them for? Are you sure it’s not for some other purpose? It’s a bit rude to ask for them when you’re not even going to lend them to us.

**[Drifting AI]** — I’ll question mark.

**[Semen Thief]** — Yoho is scary…

—

The Defense Team was still scratching her head shyly.

—

**[Minji]** — Stop scratching your head. You’re going to get dandruff all over Se-hoon-nim’s house. ㅡㅡ

**[Yoho]** — Right. We should just abandon the house.

**[Jujijoa]** — Lol, stop bullying her, you crazy bitches.

—

Then, she suddenly shouted loudly, turning her gaze to the 2nd floor.

—

“Hey! Come down quickly, I need to open the portal!”

—

At that, a woman started trudging down the stairs from the 2nd floor.

It seemed there was another person besides the Defense Team.

The Defense Team spoke in an annoyed voice.

—

“Why are you coming down so late?”

“Sorry. I was closing the portal on the 2nd floor.”

“Why are you closing it? We’ll need it when we come back.”

“Oh, right?”

“Are you crazy?”

—

The woman talking to the Defense Team.

I’d seen her before; she was a member of the circus troupe the Defense Team belonged to.

She seemed to be the wizard skilled in setting up portals.

—

“Ah. Long time no see, Se-hoon.”

—

The woman noticed me and greeted me with a smile.

I also smiled slightly and returned the greeting.

—

“Yes. Hello.”

“You must have been surprised to see me coming down from the 2nd floor. Sorry. I messed up the portal coordinates a bit and connected it inside the house.”

“It’s fine. I wasn’t that surprised.”

—

**[Minji]** — She’s so polite.

**[Yoho]** — Right. Unlike some people. ㅎ

**[Qkrnfl892]** — These guys seem like they don’t get along, but they actually work well together.

—

The woman apologized and then immediately took the orb from the Defense Team, preparing to open the portal.

—

“Then I’ll connect you to where the Drifting Restaurant has opened.”

“Thank you.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]** — Se-hoon, are you leaving now? Should I bring the maid and Min Neong down to see you off?

“It’s fine, you don’t have to come down. We already said goodbye earlier.”

—

**[Gyeongsaeng Guburi]**
