“Phew─”
*Thud!*
While enjoying a pleasant breeze and smoking a cigarette, Baekseol, who had been running around, suddenly bumps into something and falls backward with a loud thud.
Startled, I try to approach her, but she quickly gets up, shakes her head, and scurries over to me.
“Did it go *thud*?”
“Yeah.”
Seeing her rub her nose with her front paw, it seems she hit herself pretty hard.
“Does it hurt a lot? Are you okay?”
“Yeah!”
After giving her a few head pats and using a healing spell, she happily runs back to the grassy field to play.
The spot where Baekseol bumped into was a cute fence about knee height.
As I reach out to touch it, I feel pressure on my palm and get pushed back.
“Guess this is the limit of the usable space.”
It seems like upgrading would expand the front yard, but for now, this seems sufficient.
The money spent on the tent alone so far is 1 billion and 2.3 million won.
From now on, the price will increase exponentially, so it’s still hard to manage.
“Phew─”
The yard is spacious enough to start a vegetable garden, so if it feels lacking later, I can always upgrade.
Exhaling cigarette smoke, I finally take a good look at the house.
It seems like it was crafted by skilled stonemasons and carpenters, meticulously carved from stone and wood.
“Ga-eul, I sense movement of a living being outside.”
“Huh? Really?”
“Yes.”
“Baekseol.”
At Haetnimu’s words, I call Baekseol, who comes running and jumps into my arms.
“Baekseol, do you feel anything outside?”
Baekseol’s small ears perk up.
“There is!”
“Whoa, what? Now that I think about it, the sun is still up, huh?”
The more I think about it, the more strange things I notice.
As anxiety creeps in and I reach for my magic staff, Haetnimu gently pats my shoulder.
“Calm down. It seems to be an animal.”
“That’s a relief, but…”
After finishing her sentence, Haetnimu walks toward the fence and pokes the air with her finger.
*Whoosh─!!*
The transparent barrier trembles as if it might break.
“There’s no hostile intent, and even if there were, they wouldn’t be able to pass through the barrier here. It’s not top-tier, but it’s decent enough.”
It feels a bit unsettling to hear there’s a living being in this space for the first time, but knowing it’s an animal puts me at ease.
“Still, this place feels like my own countryside villa.”
“It’s a very splendid place.”
“Great!”
Even though it’s a temporary cohabitation, the angel seems satisfied, and the rabbit is happy too, so I feel content as well.
Especially since Baekseol now has plenty of space to run around and play.
“Baekseol, stay here and play. I’ll go inside and look around.”
“Okay!”
Watching Baekseol run off and climb a tree, I head inside, greeted by a serene atmosphere.
“The first floor can be used as the kitchen and living room, and the second floor is relatively smaller, so it can be the private quarters.”
Going up the stairs, the second floor is different from the first, with a long hallway leading to just two rooms.
“Is this the bedroom?”
“Yeah. The small room next to it can be used as a closet, and Haetnimu can sleep here with me.”
“Sleep together?”
“Yeah. You don’t like it?”
“That’s not it.”
This room alone seems to be about seven pyeong. Compared to my rooftop room, it’s incomparably spacious.
While the rooftop room barely has space to stand after putting a bed, here I can fit a bed and several pieces of furniture.
Still, by rooftop room standards, it’s a spacious room, and this much is more than enough.
“I can put a bed and a small sofa here.”
“The sofa can go on the first floor.”
“Wouldn’t it be better to let it go?”
“Yeah.”
The angel seems to be more skilled at home interior design than expected.
“I’ll buy some furniture, so do you want to decorate, Haetnimu?”
“Should I decorate?”
“Yeah. I just put stuff wherever and live like that, so I can’t do this kind of thing.”
“Understood.”
“Great. Then let’s look at this…”
Without thinking, out of habit, I take out my phone and turn on the internet, and the search engine pops up.
“What the hell.”
“Why are you suddenly cursing?”
“Why is this working?”
Surprised, a curse slips out of my mouth.
Come to think of it, since my phone worked in the training ground, I once showed viewers a ramen mukbang.
<Lady Han Ga-eul has started broadcasting>
Just in case, I press the broadcast start button and wait, but no one comes in.
Unless I suddenly became a streamer, this shouldn’t be happening.
“Hmm.”
<Lady Han Ga-eul has ended broadcasting>
Even when I look for other people’s broadcasts, there’s only noise and no movement.
“Is something wrong?”
“No, not exactly, but something feels off.”
As I stare intently at my phone, Haetnimu next to me looks at me strangely.
“What?”
Looking closely at my phone, I notice the time has stopped.
The date has gone back to 8 days ago. It seems like it stopped exactly 8 days ago.
“8 days ago is when I came here.”
“What do you mean?”
“See the time here?”
“Yes. I’ve seen players in the tutorial messing with it.”
Haetnimu nods slightly and looks at the phone.
“It should be moving, but it’s stopped.”
“Is it broken?”
“No, it’s not. Time stopped after I entered this world.”
Ding!

───
Thinking the item options might have the answer, I move my hand, and a description pops up.
Something has changed slightly.
When I press the text that says “residents,” I can see how many people are living here and who is inside.
Ding!
[You can distribute the key to Happy Our Home to resident Ariel]
“Oh.”
When I touch Ariel’s name, a new message appears.
The moment I press accept, light gathers, and a key falls into my palm.
“Here. The house key.”
I hand over the key, and Ariel blinks, carefully taking it.
“Is it okay to give this to me?”
“Why are you stating the obvious?”
This place isn’t a building-type house, so staying here was tricky.
Because you need a magic key to open the entrance, Haetnimu couldn’t enter the house without me, but that issue has been resolved.
“Take care of it.”
“…Yes. I’ll take good care of it too.”
Haetnimu, who had been staring at me, answers softly.
The smile that was hard to distinguish also seems particularly visible today.
“Here.”
After receiving the key, Ariel also gets my phone and stares at me blankly.
“If you look at the phone, you can see furniture pictures, right?”
Ariel, who was looking at the homepage of a furniture store I had preloaded, nods.
“If you swipe the screen with your finger, the pictures move, right? From there, pick the furniture you like and add it to the cart…”
“Put it in…”
As I speak, a huge problem pops into my head.
“Do I have to learn the language I’m using first?”
“I know. Higher-dimensional beings like me usually have the ability to interpret languages.”
“Oh. So, under the furniture picture, there’s the word ‘shopping cart,’ right? If you press that, you can literally put things in the cart and save them for later. Just pick what you like and save it.”
“Understood.”
This angel, encountering human culture for the first time, has quite the impressive understanding.
Cultural products often change due to political understanding, religion, academia, and the flow of the economy. Yet, understanding it all at once means this angel, with its unreadable expression, has an incredibly high intelligence.
It’s a different type of entity from the brave rabbit.
“Let’s go down to the first floor.”
“Yes.”
Without taking their eyes off the mobile phone, they busily move their hands and come down the stairs.
It looks so uncomfortable to be standing and using a phone.
After buying a cheap sofa from the store and setting it up in the first-floor living room, they finally take their eyes off the phone.
“Sit here and do it.”
“Where did this come from?”
“My ability. But it’s not that great, so pick something better from there.”
“Understood.”
The angel, plopping down on the sofa, starts moving their fingers rapidly again.
“I’ll go out for a bit.”
“Take care.”
Leaving the busy angel behind, I step out into the yard with the door left open, and the fresh air makes me feel good again.
“Baekseol! I’m going out for a bit.”
Shouting towards the yard, a white fluffball comes running and jumps into my arms.
“Together!”
“Alright, let’s go together.”
“Yes!”
The white fluffball is covered in grass.
“Did you have fun playing?”
“Lots of fun!”
It seems like they had a blast without me even asking.
“Let’s brush it off.”
Whoosh!
Grass and leaves scatter over their face and hair.
“You should do that before jumping into my arms.”
“Okay!”
They seem just happy.
Taking Baekseol to the entrance we first came through, the world changes in an instant.
Unlike what we saw inside, there’s a tiny tent.
《Why did Choco Seoksung block me? They’re making a fuss.》
It seems they heard Haetnimu say they could block someone, but I never blocked anyone. Maybe entering the tent automatically blocks people.
“I never blocked anyone. It’s because of that house.”
They don’t have four eyes, but it seems they’re busy watching while playing the game.
─Click, click.
“Whew─”
The problem isn’t the clicks but the tent in front of me.
“Hmm.”
Pushing my head into the tent again, I see Haetnimu half-lying on the sofa in a strange position, still shopping.
“Haetnimu, I’m going to see what happens if I close the door from outside. Can you come out in 10 seconds?”
“Understood.”
Again, they answer without taking their eyes off the phone.
Click.
Stabbing the key into the air and turning it, the tent disappears with a clicking sound.
“Whew─”
Click.
Before I can even exhale the cigarette smoke, another click sounds, and a dark entrance appears.
Only the entrance of the tent appears in the air.
An angel walks out leisurely from inside.
“Done?”
“Yes.”
After a short conversation, Haetnimu walks into the dark entrance without looking back.
The entrance seems to be fixed at the coordinates where it first appeared.
Now, the final experiment.
Click.
Turning the key and sticking my head in, I see Haetnimu walking towards the sofa.
“Haetnimu, this time too, come out in 10 seconds…”
“Come out.”
“Understood.”
After opening the space, I shoved the tent inside and closed it, leaving no trace behind.
“Whew─”
After waiting for a moment, I felt something tapping from the space connected to me.
*Knock knock.*
It sounded like knocking.
“Hold on, I’ll open it…”
*Crackle!*
“Gasp.”
Suddenly, the space tore open, and an angel walked out from within.
“What’s the matter?”
“Huh? No… How did you get out?”
“There was a mountain of garbage blocking the path in another dimension, so I tore through and came out.”
“That’s not garbage, it’s my space.”
The angel gave me a cold, icy glare.
I felt like my heart was about to be wounded.
“…Please clean up.”
“I did organize it, though…?”
“Looks like I’ll have to decorate the house myself.”
“…Yeah. Please do.”
“Yes.”
*Click.*
After finishing the efficient conversation, the angel walked straight into Happy Our Home without looking back.
In an instant, the mistress of the house became the angel. At this rate, the guy outside will have no choice but to earn money.
*Click.*
Following Haetnimu inside, I saw the angel sprawled on the sofa in a pose so incomprehensible it could rival a cat’s.
For an angel, this isn’t just some amateur lounging skill.
With a phone in hand, even a slacker would cry seeing this.
The vibe is anything but ordinary.
As I approached Haetnimu and stared down at her, she looked up from her busy phone fiddling.
“What’s the matter?”
“I came to collect the rent.”
“Rent? How much?”
Pushing the phone aside, I burrowed into Haetnimu’s embrace, causing her to widen her eyes.
Every time the usually expressionless angel’s face becomes this expressive, I feel a strange sense of joy.
The way her big eyes blink is adorable.
“It smells like peaches.”
“Do you like it?”
“Yes. It’s a very fragrant and uplifting scent.”
As I got closer, my nose touched Haetnimu’s soft one.
“It’s yours.”
“Mine?”
*Pout.*
“Whoo.”
