I Became a Servant the Dragons Are Obsessed With - Chapter 599



599 – Side story) At the funeral home

“Huh?”

Jeon So-rim, who rushed out the front door after receiving a call from Seong Ji-hoon, could not easily erase her dumbfounded expression.

“… “Uh, why is Jihoon from his childhood in front of my eyes?”

Were you tired from grandma’s funeral?

I can already see everything… … .

I’m sure I’m not dreaming, right?

She rubs her eyes and squirms.

With a face of complete disbelief.

As expected, Seong Ji-hoon, 15 years younger than her, was standing in front of her.

Jeon So-rim repeatedly washed her face to remove the familiar face on the statue, but nothing changed.

Height only reaches his waist.

Wearing loose-fitting clothes that don’t fit your body.

A boy who appears to be roughly in his early to mid-teens is looking at Jeon So-rim while holding a large cell phone.

It wasn’t by chance that our eyes met.

The boy was looking directly at Jeon So-rim.

With a face that was a mixture of joy and concern.

‘Ji, it’s really Jihoon, right? But how… … ?’

For a moment I thought I had seen it wrong, but

The more I looked, the more striking the resemblance was.

The child’s face clearly showed Seong Ji-hoon’s features.

Seong Ji-hoon, who made Jeon So-rim fall in unrequited love in the past, had a face that still resembled his old self.

‘No way! Anyway, Jihoon really can’t have a point, right? It’s probably just a kid with a similar face… … . Anyway, where on earth is Jihoon?

“Shaolin! It’s here! here-!”

“… Haaa? Was it real?”

I tried to look the other way, but

The kid who catches Jeon So-rim’s attention again.

A little boy waves his hand and pegs it. He says he is Seong Ji-hoon.

He was making eye contact with Jeon So-rim with his small eyes and speaking the same youthful voice he had heard through the cell phone earlier.

“Why do you keep averting your eyes from earlier? Could it be that you couldn’t see clearly because you were so small?”

“Jihoon..? What it looks like now… … . “What really happened?”

It was like that. It was the real Seong Ji-hoon.

It was hard to believe in common sense, but

Jeon So-rim could feel it intuitively.

I don’t know what happened, but I know that the boy standing in front of me right now is Seong Ji-hoon.

“You seem very surprised as expected? “I’ll explain everything.”

The little boy often approaches Jeon So-rim with his steps. He fluttered the sleeves of his loose-fitting clothes that seemed to have been put on in a hurry.

“Are you really Jihoon?”

“Yeah, can’t you tell just by looking at it? I thought you would recognize me right away… … . “I’m a little disappointed, right?”

“What… … ?”

“Hahaha, just kidding, kidding.”

The little boy smiles mischievously.

With a mischievous smile on his face.

The voice was that of a child,

His tone or actions were never like that.

“… Hmm, is it this girl? “The woman who was the local director of the beginning.”

“Oh? Well, who are you again? … ?!”

A woman suddenly interrupts their conversation.

Long braided white hair and ivory eyes.

A beautiful woman with an exotic appearance comes next to the younger Seong Ji-hoon and wraps her hand around his shoulder.

“Oh, hello. This is Sylvian, from the Whirlwind Clan. It’s a bit awkward to introduce myself like this, but… … . “She is also my last wife.”

“… … .”

ㅡUgh!

Meanwhile, instead of introducing herself, Sylvian gives Jeon So-rim a dry look.

“… “Then, is this person also a dragon?”

“Wow, you’re a quick-witted woman. “It’s not bad reasoning.”

“yes? No, just by looking at it, you can tell it’s a dragon—”

“Hey, Shaolin? I know it’s embarrassing, but let’s all introduce ourselves… … . “Can we talk outside for a moment?”

“Oh, yes! okay… … !”

***

“… “W-That’s ridiculous?!”

“Haha, I knew you would react that way. Even if you think about it, it really makes no sense, right?”

“of course. It’s possible to get younger… … . “What kind of person would believe something like that?”

“Isn’t that right? I, the person involved, still feel awkward in this body, but you must be embarrassed. I understand.”

Parking lot behind the funeral home.

Jeon So-rim, who heard the details of Seong Ji-hoon’s actions, cannot close her mouth with an expression of disbelief.

Because she actually had experience facing a dragon, she was able to accept Seong Ji-hoon’s words without much question.

“But isn’t the smaller version of the beginning cute in its own way?”

“yes yes..? Oh, of course it is, but it was so sudden… … .”

From noble mtl dot come

“Don’t worry too much. “I will somehow put it back to the beginning.”

Sylvian pats his chest and assures.

By speaking politely first.

Sylvian had developed a lot of social skills while living at the academy.

“Anyway, let’s start from the beginning… … . “You went all the way to Japan to find a way to return to your original body, then flew back after receiving my text message?”

“that’s right. “I need to be able to stay still because I’m worried about you.”

“fool. If you have any work to do in Japan, please at least contact me! “I’m fine with that alone.”

“How could you do that? “It’s about my precious person.”

“Ji, Jihoon… … .”

“And thanks to Sylvian, it didn’t take long to get here.”

Seong Ji-hoon holds the hand of Sylvian, who is right next to him like a bodyguard.

“hmm! Covering this distance is like eating cold ramen!”

“Did you hear? So there’s nothing to worry about too much. “I came here just to see your face for a moment because I was worried.”

“That’s what it was… … . “Thank you for coming to see me.”

“What are you taking for granted?”

“… And thank you to Sylvian! “Is it okay if I call you sister?”

“Thank you, I just did what I had to do as the first lady. She’s older than that… … . Well, you can call me comfortably.”

Sylvian shrugs her shoulders, willingly accepting the title “sister.”

“… It’s a pity that our first meeting was at a funeral. “I pray for the deceased to rest in peace.”

Sylvian bows his head in a polite manner. She gives a light nod.

“that’s right. “What happened to grandma?”

“It’s not that serious. You have been suffering from a chronic illness for a long time. Then he passed away last night at the hospital he was in… … .”

“I see. I had no idea that happened… … .”

ㅡKkook!

Seong Ji-hoon wrapped Jeon So-rim’s hand without saying much. With two hands that were infinitely small and delicate compared to hers.

“Heh, I’m fine! I said he left with a rather relaxed look on his face. “My whole family was mentally prepared.”

“No matter what, there is no such thing as a breakup without regret. It’s a sad story. “The deceased must have gone to a good place.”

“Thank you for worrying about me even though it’s my first time seeing you, sister.”

“What does it matter if I see you for the first time? “We all have a precious relationship that goes back to the beginning.”

ㅡTeoup!

Sylvian also folded his hands over it. While offering calm words of comfort.

Such a solemn atmosphere for a moment… … .

“By the way, you came all the way here, so why don’t you at least eat something! Jihoon, you too!”

Jeon So-rim holds Seong Ji-hoon’s hand tightly and encourages him to go inside. She tries to smile brightly.

No matter how mentally prepared I was, that didn’t mean nothing happened.

“No, it’s okay. If I went there with a body like this, everyone would look at me strangely, right? “There’s also Sylvian.”

“Hey, there’s nothing to worry about. “The reception room is separate here.”

“No matter how much it is, I can’t even say hello to you formally, so just getting food is a bit… … .”

─ That was when Seong Ji-hoon spoke.

-Korororororolok!!!

Suddenly a loud noise blows like a gust of wind.

As if lightning had struck a dry sky.

The source of that roar was none other than… … .

“… hmm? Sylvian?”

“I’m sorry for talking about this. “It seems like everything I ate earlier was digested because it was flying at top speed.”

It was as she said.

I pretended like nothing happened earlier, but

In fact, flying at full speed from Osaka to Seoul was extremely physically draining.

“Look at that. “My sister went through a hard time flying all the way here, so if I, as your younger sister, can’t take care of anything, what good am I?”

“Tsk… … .”

“It’s okay, so come and eat at least a little~”

*

‘I was really planning on just saying hello and heading back… … .’

Guided by Sorim’s hand, I suddenly entered the funeral home.

“Nowadays, there are also standing reception rooms. that’s interesting… … .”

As Sorim said, it was a funeral home with separate mortuary and reception rooms.

It was also a somewhat unfamiliar structure with standing tables lined up like a restaurant.

ㅡWhat a buzz… … !

Many people were already filling the waiting room.

“It is clear that he was a person who accumulated a lot of virtue during his lifetime.”

“… Um, Sylvian?”

“A funeral where you can feel the spirit of harmony rather than the sadness of leaving the deceased… … . “He must have lived a desirable life like a whirlwind.”

ㅡTeoup!

Sylvian says something incomprehensible to himself and looks like he is holding his hands together. She expresses her sincere condolences.

“Jihoon and your sister. You waited a long time, right? “Eat it all and tell me again if it’s not enough.”

Just then, Sorim brings out a meal.

At first, I thought it was Yukgaejang.

Because it is a historic food that automatically comes to mind when thinking of funerals.

However, on the tray she put down were several things that were unfamiliar as funeral food.

“what? Shaolin, this can’t be right… … ?”
