Chapter.4 Hamburger and Boy

As soon as they were back hugging, Rurin suddenly stuttered.

“Someone like this is hugging me from behind!”

“Didn’t you come into my room and hug me while I slept yesterday?”

“It was cold. It’s because it’s cold. “You are just a stove.”

“The dragon was cold? The dragon? “Why don’t you just say the sun rises in the west?”

“Aang!”

“If you’re always at a disadvantage, the last one is Aang. Aang.”

“Hi-Hi. But you can hug me a little tighter. “I like the front better!”

“Didn’t you just do something about humans? “You dare say that you prefer to hug from the front?”

“good! “Then let’s try teleporting.”

Lulin chewed his words and began to use magic. A black hole in space and time attacks me. The dizziness that occurs at this time is quite annoying.

As convenient as it is, it comes with some inconvenience.

Anyway, in an instant, we arrived in front of Yeongju Castle. From there, Lulin sniffed again and used teleportation again while still hugging me.

As a result of the two-stage teleportation, my head spins even more.

And when we arrived, we found ourselves in a clean room. Bed, wardrobe and gorgeous carpet.

It was clean, but had everything there was, especially the sofa in the center, which was very luxurious. There is no one in that room.

“How do you feel? “I think it’s probably here.”

“If you are, then yes.”

The story is that they didn’t come back because they saw that no one was there. Well, given the distance, that’s natural.

“Let’s wait a moment.”

“I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but I get it.”

Lulin nodded and began to look around. And then he hits the sofa. But just then the only door began to squeak open.

I hugged Rurin and quietly hid behind the sofa. And the identity of the person who came in was confirmed.

Lurin’s teleportation was accurate.

It was the boy who came in. When I got up and appeared, the boy was startled and pointed at us.

“uh? “I saw you at the restaurant earlier!”

He tilted his head in surprise, but even as he did so, he quickly closed the door. He had a nervous face, wondering if someone had seen him outside.

I can’t believe I’m being watched so much because I’m the lord’s son.

Normally, I’ve never seen a nobleman’s son be this kind to his subordinates. So the curiosity is amplified.

“Did you come to see me? “But how did you come to my room?”

“Didn’t you leave money at the restaurant earlier?”

“money? right. I couldn’t eat it, but the food was still served, so I couldn’t inconvenience it, right? So, I left the money behind.”

“That’s it. Since you receive money, you should eat at least one bite to feel comfortable. “Because that’s my iron rule.”

“Is that so? Then did you bring that dish too? “I really wanted to eat that dish!”

“Of course.”

“That’s amazing! amazing! But I asked you earlier, but you didn’t answer… . How on earth did you get here? “I’m curious about that too.”

I’m not arguing. There was just curiosity in the boy’s eyes. Are you saying that you figured out how to get here and use it to sneak around the city? It looks like he ran away earlier and came all the way to my restaurant.

However, it is a method that cannot be taught and cannot be used by humans.

I shrugged and unwrapped the hamburger and held it out.

“The method is simple. “Because I’m a wizard.”

“Wizard? “Why is a wizard running a restaurant?”

“I am retired. Is that really that important? A life of doing what you want to do is a happy life. “If you want to eat this delicious hamburger, would you please keep the fact that I’m a wizard a secret?”

“Is that so? I see Because there is something I want to do too. i get it!”

The boy ran towards me.

“Anyway, what if I came here to harm you? Aren’t you so defenseless from earlier?”

The boy who ran up to me and tried to take the hamburger in my hand tilted his head. And speak confidently.

“If you were planning on killing me, I don’t think you would have asked me to cooperate with the secret.”

“Haha, it might be troublesome to explain, right?”

“But your face looks kind. “It’s not scary at all.”

You look kind. That’s my first time hearing it. I don’t know why you speak so kindly to me, but to your attendants you act like that.

“Do you seem kind? That’s right. “I just came purely to deliver the food.”

“I can not admit it! You are kind. They make me work all the time! “If you are kind, you should pinch me more often!”

There is one dissatisfied monster. Of course I ignored it.

“now. It cools down. “Let’s eat it first.”

“I guess so. It looks delicious just by looking at it. The smell is amazing! “After all, you are a good person.”

The boy bit into the hamburger with a face full of anticipation. The sauce flows.

“it’s good! “This is really delicious!”

The boy looks at me as he takes a small bite. Of course, there is no one who can take it in one mouthful like Lulin. Although it is natural.

“What kind of dish did you say this is?”

“It’s a hamburger.”

“This is my first time hearing it, but it’s really unique. delicious. “It’s really delicious.”

Just because you’re young doesn’t mean you’re not a customer. Compliments are always appreciated. Because it can satisfy everyone’s tastes.

“Yes, that is delicious. I just ate too. Hi-Hi.”

Then the dragon agrees. I wondered what was going on, but her eyes were only focused on the hamburger. Usually, when I’m talking or doing business with a human being, I promise not to interrupt. But for some reason there was a lot of talk today. Probably because of the burgers. So I grabbed his arm.

“Why are you doing that!”

“Why are you yelling?”

“Because it hurts.”

“Oh my, this hurts?”

“Yes.”

“What is that? “You’ve come up with a cruel plan to take that away, right?”

“That can’t be possible!”

Rurin turns her head away with an annoyed look on her face. The answer was already there in that action.

“Foot.”

Then, out of nowhere, the boy bursts into laughter. Spilling a lot of sauce.

“It’s nice to see you guys are free. “I want to give orders to my subordinates as freely as you two.”

“Isn’t that easy? “The lord’s son, Baron Great?”

“uh? How did you know who I was? That’s right! “I am Baron Gray and the next lord.”

The boy nodded. But the expression is not good.

“A nobleman cannot control his subordinates as he pleases?”

Now that I think about it, even when I was dragged out of the restaurant, I couldn’t say anything to my subordinates. It was an act full of discomfort, but he seemed to be aware of it.

“young master! “I heard something. Are you okay?”

At that moment, perhaps because Lurin had shouted, a knocking sound was heard from outside.

“Huh?”

From that moment on, the boy began to panic. You spoke comfortably in front of me, but why can’t you treat your employees?

“Hmm, from what I saw earlier, it seemed like the subordinates were very easygoing, but the Baron is a nobleman and the next lord who will lead this city in the future. “Then shouldn’t we act to prevent our subordinates from behaving carelessly?”

The current lord of Gray City has been bedridden for a long time. The day when this boy becomes a lord is not that far away. However, if things continue to look like this, the future of Grace City is clear. It must be a mess.

“But they are pushy. They don’t let me do anything because it’s my uncle’s order. Whatever you do, it’s your uncle’s command. This is my uncle’s name. “They don’t want to listen to me.”

“That’s it.”

“uh?”

“Your little mother doesn’t have any children, right?”

“uh! Me me! “I am my father’s only son.”

“They are trying to control the lord from behind by putting pressure on him from a young age and making him a person who cannot make any decisions. “Do you want to become the Scarecrow Lord?”

“no way? My uncle is not that type of person. I’m just timid… . But I! I want to become a good lord. “A lord who is praised by the people.”

“It’s absolutely impossible like this, right?”

“But you don’t listen to me.”

The boy slumped his shoulders.

“Have you ever said anything strongly?”

“strongly?”

“Don’t just mumble helplessly.”

“I don’t think there is one. “I’m scared because you always make a bad face.”

“Baron. The Baron is a nobleman. Even if you die soon, you shouldn’t be scared by those below you. “You were so confident when I suddenly appeared earlier, but why?”

“I didn’t think anything of it because he seemed like a good person. “Because the smiling face looked kind.”

“A smiling face can hide something scarier behind it. On the contrary, those who try to make harsh threats openly are a disaster. Anyway, the important thing is that you will get eaten like this. If you don’t want to become a lord who can’t do anything, shout. strongly. “First of all, let’s get those guys outside the door to leave.”

I pointed out the door.

“young master! I will open it and go in.”

There are still harsh sounds coming from outside. The uncle’s mother is the lord’s second wife. I know that his first wife died young. Leaving behind this boy.

Everything that puts pressure on the next lord probably stems from the little lady’s greed.

“If you want to be a good lord, act confidently. After all, they are the type of people who can’t do anything other than glare at the Baron, who is a nobleman. “If you go out strong, they will come out on the other side.”

“Good lord. Good lord… . Free like you… .”

The boy repeated the good lord several times.

I hear the sound of the door being forced open. Then Lurin, who was rolling around on the sofa, said something.

“What a frustrating human being.”

Then he imitated the boy’s voice and spoke loudly.

“It’s okay! It’s nothing, so go away! If you don’t listen to this body, I will eat it all! “Pathetic people.”

“Huh?”

The boy was rather taken aback by the very same voice.

“Master Tao?”

A panicked voice is heard outside. That’s because Rurin’s back lines are a bit messed up. However, since the water had already spilled, I took advantage of this opportunity to urge the boy.

“You can do it like that. Try it. “Can you hear their panicked voices now?”

“is it… . “Is it okay if I go out strong?”

The boy walked to the door. And as if he had decided on something, he shouted out exactly what Lurin said.

“It’s okay! “It’s nothing, so go away!”

“yes… ?”

Even outside, people seemed quite surprised. A dazed voice is heard. I stretched out my fingers and urged him to shout one more time.

“Go away quickly!”

Then the boy opened his mouth again with a red face.

“Oh, I understand.”

People who eventually leave. In fact, it has to be that way. No matter how innocent he is, how dare he come into the master’s room when nothing is happening?

From the second wife’s perspective, it makes no sense to kill this boy if she does not have an heir. If that happens, the lord will change. It will change from the center to another noble’s territory. Because there is no successor.

In that case, everyone, whether they are small wives or colluders, ends up on the streets. You wouldn’t be a fool to not know that.

All that needs to be done is for the boy to step forward and regain his legitimate rights.

“look. “You went away, right?”

“amazing! “This is the first time they listened to me.”

“It must have been because I was just muttering timidly until now. If you want to become a good lord, you must regain your dignity step by step. Anything of your own will. If people around you ask you to do something, you should hang up. Even if you become a tyrant, you must become a tyrant of your own will.”

“What a tyrant. “I will be a good lord!”

“It’s better to speak while clenching your fists and looking straight into the other person’s eyes.”

“uh?”

“I’m telling you to do to them as you would to me.”

“is it? But there’s something different about you. Even though I’ve only just met you, you speak well.”

“Let me give you a gift from that strange man.”
