Player Who Returned 10,000 Years Later

Chapter 114

"Crunch, crunch."

KangWoo's hands moved fast.

The sushi in front of him disappeared quickly.

Chae YeonJoo looked at him in disbelief.

"Is it that delicious?"

"Yes."

He nodded. Chae YeonJoo smiled.

"If anyone saw you right now, they'd think that it's your first time eating sushi."

"It is my first time."

"Hmm? Ah…"

A short exclamation left her mouth.

'Oh yeah, he was from an orphanage.'

She'd forgotten about it because he was so different from what the information she'd

"Kyaa!"

He lightly flicked his finger.

Cheon SooYeon stood up while grabbing her forehead.

"Don't talk as if you know me, you naughty miss. I'm not interested in becoming something like an overlord. Who wants to become something like that in this day and age? That's too out of style."

"O-out of style?"

"Yes. Out of style. Childish."

"Then what is it that you want…?"

KangWoo leaned back on the chair.

"I want to eat delicious things, stay at home using my cellphone to browse the internet, and visit some places."

"Is that all…?"

"Yes."

"But your strength is too great to use for just those things—"

"Hahaha!"

Her words were cut off. KangWoo laughed out loud as if he couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Just, huh…?"

He looked at her.

She trembled after looking into his eyes.

She felt countless emotions that she couldn't measure.

The weight was different… The years were different…

She felt herself getting smaller in front of him.

She had never felt something like that, not even from Cheon MooJin.

"You see? That just isn't as easy as it seems."

"…"

He smiled bitterly.

Cheon SooYeon remained silent. She felt her body trembling.

It was as if she'd looked into a mountain without end.

'As expected…'

She liked what she heard.

After hearing that he wasn't interested in becoming something like an overlord, she became more excited.

Seeing him in a place she'd never be able to reach made her heart beat faster.

She licked her lips and felt her dry lips on her tongue. She was having a hard time suppressing her urges.

'Not yet.'

She tried to calm down.

It wasn't time to do that yet.

She had to approach him a bit slower, more relaxedly.

"Oh yeah. You said that I was of help to you, right?"

"Yes."

He nodded.

If she hadn't been there, things would've gotten troublesome. It wasn't like he didn't have a way to solve the situation, but it would have taken him a lot of time.

Cheon SooYeon smiled after hearing him answer without hesitation.

"You weren't planning to say thanks only with words, right?"

"Hmm… What do you want?"

He was indebted to her…

He had no intention of denying that.

As long as it was something he could do, the proper thing to do was listen to her request.

"Fufu. Tomorrow… why don't we go somewhere, just the two of us?"

"Hmm."

He thought of Echidna's words.

"The day after tomorrow?"

"I only have time tomorrow since there's a lot I have to talk with the Japanese government about."

"Hngh."

KangWoo nodded after thinking about it for a while.

'I'll go there with them the day after tomorrow.'

Thanks to Chae YeonJoo, he had enough time. It wouldn't matter if the plan were delayed by a day.

'I'll have to tell them I can't go because something happened.'

He felt a bit uncomfortable because he would have to lie as if he were a cheating husband, but there was nothing he could do about it.

There was no way they would accept him going somewhere with only Cheon SooYeon.

"Okay, where should we go?"

Cheon SooYeon had helped him by using the Thousand Sword Gate's name, so a date was a cheap price for that.

Cheon SooYeon's face brightened after hearing his answer. She tried her best but couldn't hide her excitement.

KangWoo felt that reaction made her look cute.

"Fu-fufu. Mr. KangWoo, is it your first time visiting Japan?"

"Yes. It's my first time."

"Then there's a good dating place for couples."

"Well… Leaving the couples part aside, where are you talking about?"

"It's a place where a mouse that thinks copyright is important lives. From a Chinese person's point of view, it's almost like a natural enemy."

"…?"

KangWoo couldn't understand what she was saying.

Cheon SooYeon kept talking with a smile on her face.

"Disneyland."

"Ah."

A short exclamation left his mouth. KangWoo laughed.

'An amusement park…'

He never imagined Cheon SooYeon would ask him to go to an amusement park.

'As expected, she's still a little girl.'

He laughed naturally. An amusement park? And one that was made for children at that.

'Now that I think about it, they used to show us movies from that company in the orphanage.'

It wasn't that he could remember something that happened so many years ago because he had an unbelievable memory…

Rather, remembering the past was only something he'd done to survive.

Hell was a terrible and dark place…

He used to think about Earth all the time.

If he didn't think of Earth and how much he wanted to return to it, he would've gone crazy.

"Okay."

KangWoo nodded. After all, he'd never been to an amusement park.

Experiencing something new that he hadn't done before was always great.

"But an amusement park…? Your interests are cuter than I initially thought."

"Ugh… D-do you have any problems with it?"

Cheon SooYeon blushed.

KangWoo laughed lightly.
