[TS] Became a Peach Saint – Chapter 45

The soldier’s question made me remember the message from yesterday, so I pulled out my phone.

“Um, I came to meet someone named Gang-cheol.”

“…..”

“Excuse me?”

“Huh? Oh, sorry. Who did you say you were looking for?”

I answered again to the soldier, who seemed to be mesmerized as he looked at me.

“Gang-cheol.”

“Ah, you mean Sergeant Gang-cheol?”

“Sergeant?…. This guy was a sergeant?”

“Pardon?”

“No, just talking to myself.”

Hearing my muttering, the soldier responded with “I didn’t catch that” in 0.5 seconds. I noticed he was a corporal by the insignia on his chest.

“Anyway, that guy… I mean, could you call Sergeant Gang-cheol for me?”

“Could you tell me your purpose for visiting and your name?”

“My name is Han Ga-eul, and I’m here for a visit.”

“Please wait a moment.”

The soldier wrote down my name somewhere, then picked up the phone inside the guardhouse and started mumbling something.

“Thank you for waiting. Here’s your pass. Go straight ahead, then turn right, and you’ll see the visitation room.”

“Thank you.”

As I walked, fiddling with the pass with my name on it, I saw the visitation room the soldier had mentioned.

The visitation room building looked like it was made by pouring cement into a square mold and lifting it straight up.

“Damn, they really slapped this together.”

Entering the visitation room, I looked around and realized it was empty because it was a weekday.

After glancing around the uninteresting interior, I had nothing else to look at, so I put my phone on the mount I brought.

[Lady Han Ga-eul has started broadcasting.]

[Enlisted]

[LOL LOL LOL Ga-euljang, your broadcast title is always a disaster.]

[The room master never has a quiet day.]

[Room master, you’re so pretty today, hi hi.]

[Ga-eul, where are you?]

“Guys, I’m here for a visit. When I came in, there was a huge snake painted at the entrance.”

[Snake? Where?]

[No idea, I haven’t served.]

[Room master, what color was the snake?]

“Black. Its mouth was wide open, with something dripping from its fangs—saliva or venom—and its eyes were blood red. Looked creepy as hell.”

[Isn’t that the Black Mamba Special Operations Unit?]

[For real? You mean the 901 Unit?]

“The guard said that. You guys know it well?”

[Why the hell did you go there?]

[Room master, you’re hilarious LOL.]

[That place has a notorious reputation.]

Seeing the viewers all saying the same thing, it seemed like the place was more famous than I thought.

“Why did I come? To see my kid. We planned this visit, remember?”

[Wait, so is that kid a special ops soldier?]

[Damn, if you mess around, you’ll get your neck snapped.]

[Sorry, sorry, sorry.]

[LOL, this is the average Han Ga-eul viewer. Even a Black Mamba Unit guy is here.]

“He’s not a soldier, he’s an officer. A sergeant, actually.”

[No wonder the room master always seems to know about the military.]

[Yeah, her tone sounds like she’s been in the military three times.]

[The Black Mamba Unit is full of monsters. What are you gonna do, room master?]

“What do you mean, what am I gonna do? Did I come here for a panic field? I came for a visit.”

[LOL LOL LOL.]

[Let’s dive into the real-life panic field.]

[Room master, you’re so pretty every time I see you. That kid must be so jealous.]

“If you’re jealous, go win a wish ticket. Should I do another wish ticket draw after the visit?”

[Oh, please, let it be me this time.]

[I thought she’d just gloss over it, but since she’s even visiting, she must really care.]

[For real, LOL. She really takes care of her kids. Such a pretty girl.]

[This is why we watch Ga-eul. Damn, this time it’s definitely me.]

While chatting with the viewers, I heard the visitation room door open.

Turning my head, I saw a ruggedly handsome face with a wild aura and a massive build, dressed in a sharp military uniform.

On his chest was a name tag and a patch with a black snake, and on the other side was a parachute-shaped patch called the Airborne Mark, along with several others.

Gang-cheol paused when he saw me, took a deep breath with a tense face, and slowly approached.

“Unity!”

[What, is that kid here?]

[Damn, the salute looks cool.]

[Show us too!!!]

“Oh, my kid’s handsome, huh?”

“Th-thank you.”

Seeing Gang-cheol stutter despite his size made me laugh.

[Why is a 901 Special Ops guy stuttering?]

[If you saw the room master in person, you wouldn’t even be able to look her in the eye. That guy’s a gentleman.]

[For real, LOL. You’d be staring at the ground if you saw her in person.]

Gang-cheol looked so nervous he might pass out.

Thinking about how to ease his tension, I suddenly shouted loudly enough to make the visitation room explode.

“Gang-cheol!!!!”

“Sergeant Gang-cheol!”

Gang-cheol straightened his chest and loudly announced his rank and name.

[Damn, I had my earphones in, thought my ears would burst.]

[Room master, what’s with the volume? LOL.]

[LOL LOL LOL, she’s crazy.]

[How can someone’s name be Gang-cheol? LOL LOL LOL.]

“Kid, you’re built like a mountain, why are you so nervous?”

Gang-cheol looked at me smiling and seemed to relax a bit.

“Y-you’re so pretty in person… that’s why.”

“Stop flattering and sit down.”

“My sister brought something delicious.”

[Not flattery, just facts.]

[LOL]

[Did she make homemade food? So jealous.]

At the word to sit down, Gang-cheol approached and sat across from me. Seeing him settle in, I took out the sandwiches and drinks I had prepared last night and placed them on the table.

“It’s nothing fancy, just sandwiches. I loaded them with meat, cheese, and veggies, so eat up.”

“Wow… thank you.”

His mouth was so big that half the sandwich disappeared in one bite.

“By the way, is it okay for you to be on broadcast?”

He nodded while chewing vigorously.

“No need to force it. You know there are thousands of crazy people watching, right?”

“Our independent unit has been on many broadcasts, so it’s fine. I’ve already shown my face a lot, and the broadcasting station is here to film us now.”

“The broadcasting station is really here?”

“Yes. That’s what I mentioned yesterday. When I told the battalion commander that a well-known personal streamer was visiting tomorrow, he suggested we do it together.”

After some thought, I replied.

“I’ll decide after looking around. I came to see you for now.”

“Understood.”

Gang-cheol nodded without hesitation. It seemed like the higher-ups had pressured him, and it probably wasn’t his own decision.

“This is getting long, hurry up and eat. And your face will be on broadcast. Are you really okay with that?”

“Yes, it’s fine.”

As he answered, I turned my phone to show the viewers.

[OMG, damn… he looks scary as hell.]

[Was the room master flirting with someone like that?]

[If Yuchul tried to pick a fight, he’d snap his neck with one hand LOL.]

[Wow, the military uniform looks so cool.]

[The size difference between them LOL, it’s like a kid and an adult.]

Watching him eat with his arms on the table, I suddenly realized I didn’t know his age.

“Is it good?”

“It’s the best sandwich I’ve ever had.”

“Stop flattering, eat up. By the way, how old are you?”

[The room master really is crazy.]

[You just realized that?]

[LOL, she asked so fast.]

Gang-cheol blinked and answered.

“I’m 27.”

“I’m 21. Call me ‘noona.’ Let’s talk more comfortably.”

“Yes, noona.”

[LOL, are they both sane?]

[This is so funny LOL.]

[The room master is something, but that guy didn’t even hesitate to answer.]

“Shut up, kids. If she’s pretty, she’s noona. Since when did we start caring about that?”

[Kya, I agree with that, teacher.]

[Noona!]

Watching me banter with the viewers, Gang-cheol held up his sandwich to the camera and laughed.

“Looks delicious, right?”

[Hang that guy up!]

[Damn, I’m so jealous, it feels like my insides are twisting.]

[Where do you live, you punk?]

“I’m from the 901 Black Snake Unit.”

[Ah! Teacher, enjoy your meal.]

[The Black Snake Unit tears people apart…]

[Sergeant, enjoy your meal ^^7]

[LOL, the kids are quick to control their anger.]

Watching Gang-cheol act cute despite his size, I couldn’t help but chuckle.

I opened the drink and handed it to him as he kept eating the sandwich.

“Don’t just eat that, drink something too.”

“Yes, noona.”

[Noona, take care of me too, I’m so jealous I might die.]

[Why are you so caring, you sly fox?]

[If I don’t get the next wish ticket, I’m jumping off a building. If it’s on the news, you’ll know it’s me.]

Even though I made a lot, Gang-cheol quickly finished and gestured that he was done.

“Not enough? Should I order some delivery food?”

“It’s a bit lacking, but it’s just right if I’m going to work out later.”

[LOL, damn, there were like over 10 sandwiches.]

[To maintain that build, even that might not be enough.]

After cleaning up the table, I left the visitation room with Gang-cheol.

I thought he was just tall from a distance, but standing close and looking up at him, my neck almost broke.

“Cheol, how tall are you?”

“I’m 189 cm.”

[Wow, his physique is insane.]

[You gotta be that big to join special forces, huh?]

[Who gave that guy the cute nickname ‘Yuchul’? LOL.]

[That was the room master LOL. She sometimes gives viewers weird nicknames.]

“You’re really tall.”
