The long-missed rooftop room comes into view.
Even though I left Dubai Airport in the morning and flew for over 10 hours, the sun, which should have already set, was still lingering late.
“Phew, finally home. Feels kinda unfamiliar.”
The quiet room where silence rushes in as soon as I close my mouth.
A sense of emptiness washes over me as I sprawl on the bed, while Baekseol excitedly bounces around.
“Pposiraegi, happy to be home?”
“Yeah.”
“How about Grandfather Arthur?”
“Happy.”
“Really? Let’s visit him when we have time.”
“Okay.”
Chatting with Baekseol, I feel a mix of the bed’s softness and the guilt of lying down without washing up.
“Still, I should wash up, right? Baekseol, let’s go wash.”
“Yay!”
“What kind of rabbit loves water so much?”
While showering, I shampoo Baekseol’s fur, and she rolls around happily on my head.
Thanks to that, I had to rinse my hair several times before finally stepping out.
“Phew, showering with our Pposiraegi is always a battle.”
After finishing the shower, I clumsily put on the pajamas my sister packed.
Lying on the bed, perhaps because the blanket feels familiar to Baekseol, she snuggles and rolls around next to me, causing a ruckus.
Watching the playful Baekseol, I slowly close my eyes, and the party members who caused chaos until the very last day come to mind.
***
“Autumn, you’ll be safe by my side. I’ll secure a house, so come with your family.”
“It’s okay! I’m stronger than you think. And you misunderstood. Baekseol is my only family.”
“Oh… Is that so? Then it’ll be even easier. Just follow the procedures. Just bring yourself.”
“Grandfather, I’m really fine!”
Grandfather Herman, who kept persuading me to come to his side no matter what I said.
When I didn’t listen, he resorted to his last resort, even bringing up the Hongmun story and cursing.
“Pfft.”
In the end, he gave me a hotline number, a direct line, and even sent me a list of help companies, telling me to call immediately if anything happened or seek help nearby. He said just show them the whale belly.
What surprised me while looking at the list was that TripleNet, the platform I always used, was owned by Grandfather.
Well, technically, TripleNet’s parent company was his.
It was chaos even at the airport.
Isabel cried buckets, begging me not to go.
“We’ll see each other again. It’s not like it’s hard to stay in touch these days. Chop!”
“Sniff… I can’t help the tears.”
Denis advised me to drink lots of alcohol when I’m tired and eat lots of bread when I’m hungry.
“Hahaha. Autumn, if you need any bread, just call anytime!”
“Don’t you mean things I need?”
Arthur hugged me warmly, grumbling about leaving Baekseol behind.
“Come to the observatory to see the stars.”
“With Baekseol, right?”
“Of course.”
The chairman, who decided to head to work instead of Korea, saying he’d start fresh this time.
“Room Master. I’ll do my best.”
“Yeah, my kid. Do your best!”
“Thanks, Room Master.”
[Almost hunted a moon bear]
[Lol, the sword strike got cut!]
Out of nowhere, he decided to change jobs, following me…
Grandfather Kamar, who was about to leave.
“Young lady, I’m thinking of changing jobs.”
“Huh?! Where are you suddenly going?”
“Hmm, I’ve lived long enough, so I think it’s time to do something I’ve always wanted to do.”
“Ah, that makes sense. I’ll cheer you on, Grandfather!”
“Thank you, Shop Owner.”
“·····?”
They say the benefits are better over there.
The image of the chairman, who looked utterly lost upon hearing that, still lingers in my mind.
In the end, I managed to talk him out of it.
And then there’s the photo we took together with the party members.
“Kimchi~”
“Cheese~”
“Smile~”
“Whiskey~”
“Whiskey?”
It was Denis.
***
“When we arrived, there were so many reporters. Right, Baekseol?”
“Many.”
“Yeah, there were a lot. We had a hard time sneaking out.”
It seemed like they caught wind of a scoop, as they gathered in numbers beyond imagination.
Since the others had never been exposed on broadcast, regardless of their authenticity, it seemed they flocked just to take a photo with Isabel.
“But it was fun, right?”
“Exciting!”
“Pfft. Yeah, it was exciting.”
Baekseol, hopping around, not sure what’s so exciting.
Upon closer look, she’s rolling around.
“Pfft. But why is our Pposiraegi so fluffy? Come here.”
“Exciting!”
“Oh my, my baby. Is it a ball or a rabbit?”
After rubbing her with a towel and rolling her on the blanket, she turned into a ball.
Hugging the soft Baekseol and rolling around for a while, I suddenly remembered something I wanted to do since picking up bread at the Party Hall.
“Shall we go eat ramen?”
“Okay!”
A loud ‘thud’ came from Baekseol.
Hearing that, I jumped up from the bed, and Baekseol, who was in my arms, flapped her front paws.
In that moment, the room twisted, and in the blink of an eye, a quaint thatched-roof house appeared before us.
Even the air seemed to change, with a strong scent of grass wafting in.
─Chik. Chik.
“Phew─. So nice. More like the smell of cigarettes than grass.”
With a cigarette in my mouth, I sat on the porch and started pulling out various things.
“Pot! Water! Burner!”
“Okay!”
“Ramen!! Kimchi!!”
“Okay!!”
Ding!
“My baby’s food!!”
“Okay!!!”
Seeing Baekseol, excitedly holding the flower I handed her, it seemed the fluffiness had calmed down after catching some fresh air.
The status window I opened to buy Baekseol’s food. As I was about to close it, I noticed the numbers written there and my jaw dropped.
[Remaining Amount: 1.55 billion won]
“I sold gold bars. Crazy.”
I sold them for 1.6 billion, but the price was empty, and when I thought about where I spent it, I remembered frantically pressing swimming skills to save Denis.
“Ugh.”
[Humboldt Penguin-level Swimming Lv.4]
Increased swimming speed underwater
Increased acceleration underwater
Minor cutaneous respiration of dissolved oxygen underwater
Fish tastes even better
[Price: 80 million won]
“Damn it.”
Leaving the still messed-up description aside, I searched on my phone and it seemed to be about 30~40 km/h.
“That’s disgustingly fast. Ah! Is it me?”
Bubble bubble.
While I was searching, the ramen started boiling, and the delicious smell filled the veranda.
“Let’s eat! Baekseol, are you going to have some noodles too?”
“Slurp.”
“….? Wait, our Pposiraegi, weren’t you a domestic rabbit? Are you an exotic breed or something?”
“I learned it.”
Seems like it’s Arthur.
As I was about to serve Baekseol some ramen broth and pick up my chopsticks, a sudden thought crossed my mind, making me freeze.
“What? Baekseol, didn’t I just search on my phone?”
“Yes.”
“No, where are we? Why is there signal here?”
*Munch munch*
She just answered and was busy dipping flower petals into the ramen broth.
“What? Did it always work? No, it didn’t.”
I fiddled with my phone again, but it was working fine, just like usual.
<Lady Han Ga-eul has started broadcasting>
[Hi hi]
[Did the Room Master get home?]
[Where is this?]
[Our Room Master is so diligent lol]
“Oh. It really works?”
[What works? Where is this?]
[???]
[Did the Room Master take sleeping pills on the plane?]
[LOL look at the Room Master’s cute pajamas]
It’s always been beyond human understanding, but lately, it feels like it’s getting even more intense.
“Hmm. I really don’t know.”
[LOL so cute, I’ll let it slide]
I don’t know how to answer the viewers’ questions.
I don’t live in the countryside now, and whenever I go out to play, I hang around near my sister’s shop, so even if I don’t know the exact address, the viewers know I live around that area.
“Today’s a ramen mukbang.”
[Suddenly? Wait, where are you? LOL]
[The Room Master’s random stuff isn’t just once or twice, y’all should be used to it by now]
[For real LOL]
I picked up my chopsticks to show the viewers.
*Ding!*
《Graceful Chopstick Skills》
The chopsticks elegantly swirl through the air.
Then, like a drone-sounding hornet, they dive down.
The noodles hanging from the chopsticks are like a graceful aurora.
“Oops. I mean, how’s the noodle? I cooked it.”
[The Room Master is good at cooking, of course it’s delicious]
[But the chopstick skills are next level LOL]
[So freaking funny LOL]
“Phew─ phew─.”
─Slurp. Slurp.
“Ah, hot.”
─Crunch.
I picked up a piece of kimchi and put it in my mouth, and the hot ramen and the crunchy kimchi harmonized perfectly.
“Ahhh─. So good.”
[LOL I can’t take it, Head Chef!! Bring the water!!!!]
[I want to eat some too, but all I have at home is cup noodles]
“Do you guys have a head chef at home?”
[Yeah, my little sister gave me allowance today, so it’s possible]
[LOLOLOLOLOL]
“Pfft. How much did she give you?”
[50,000 won LOL]
“Ooh~ Cool big bro, huh?”
[*Cha-ching!*]
[Red Parade has sponsored 50,000 won]
[I’m a cool big bro too hehe]
“Wow, thank you, Red Parade, for the 50,000 won sponsorship. Thank you!”
[LOLOLOLOLOL]
[Look at the Room Master’s sharp moves LOL]
[Ah, go work, CEO LOL]
*Tap tap.*
While chatting with the viewers, I…
I was holding something when someone poked my thigh.
Looking down, it was Baekseol, a fluffy ball, touching my thigh.
“More?”
“Yes!”
“Okay. I’ll give you some right away.”
[Wait, Baekseol is here too?]
[Why can’t I see Baekseol?]
“Our Pposiraegi is small, so you usually can’t see them.”
[That makes sense lol]
I subtly turned my phone and poured some ramen broth into Baekseol’s dish.
“I gave you more food. I should eat too.”
─Slurp.
[Lol the water boiled, the ramen is all gone]
“It’s delicious.”
After finishing the ramen broth, I felt like the greasy food from the party was finally being neutralized.
“Ah, that was good.”
[Such a polite person]
[They really enjoyed it]
[By the way, did you see the Bangjang’s watch worth over 20 billion?]
Just as I was about to finish the ramen and chat a bit more with the viewers before ending the stream, the watch topic suddenly came up.
“What watch?”
[The watch Bangjang gave to the butler, someone bought it at an auction about 10 years ago for 20 billion]
“····Huh? Really?”
The amount was so huge that it felt unreal, and I couldn’t even process it.
[Yeah, it’s a pocket watch called the Zodiac Twelve Palaces, the one Bangjang gave]
[Are you crying? Bangjang, are you crying?]
[Sniff, are you crying?]
“Huh? No? It wasn’t even mine to begin with. We solved quizzes together, and others helped us get it, so why would it be mine?”
[Wait, this isn’t right?]
[Has Bangjang reached enlightenment?]
Ugh.
“What are you talking about? Guys, you know I just got home, right? I just turned on the stream for a bit while eating ramen. See you tomorrow, my babies.”
[Bye bye]
[Short but sweet, bye bye]
[Bangjang, sleep well]
“Okay, my babies, dream sweet dreams. Bye bye.”
<Lady Han Ga-eul has ended the broadcast>
Sniff.
“Ah, my 20 billion. Sob. If it was 20 billion ten years ago, how much would it be now? Sob sob sob. Ahhh.”
Grumble.
“Master.”
“Ahhh, my stomach. My insides are twisting. Ahhh.”
Grumble. Grrrr.
“Snap out of it.”
While rolling on the floor from severe stomach pain, I heard a sound from the sky—whether it was thunder or a beast’s roar, I couldn’t tell.
Thanks to Baekseol’s poking, I regained my senses just as the sky rumbled again.
Grrrrrrrr!
“Mr. Dickens… are you crying?”
