Jin sobbed and looked up, suddenly changing his expression like his brother*
what?!!
[C+ Rank Mission:+Catch VENOM!-Requirement: 1 or 2 people regardless of rank.-> Mission reward: 12cld]
The illustration is a drawing of a deformed monster with sharp eyes and many things from behind like tentacles painted black*
Jin excited voice*
-no way... are we going to catch VENOM?!!
Satori nodded excitedly and expectantly*
-yeah, yeah. I was a comic fan and didn't expect that there were also slime parasites in the other world!!
Jin jumped up in excitement and enthusiasm*
-let's go! I want to be parasitized by VENOM!!
Then the two excitedly took the assignment and ran quickly to the reception desk.*
-Sorry!-
The receptionist acted seductively and flirtatiously*
-so what, baby?
with a handsome guy hugging her intimately from behind
she smiled faintly*
you're really hardworking~ I'll give you a hot reward~~
The other guy smiled shyly but full of desire
come on, we're in a crowded place, you're too enthusiastic...
The two of them moved closer to each other with hot, rapid breaths, preparing to approach each other's lips, placing their hands on each other intimately*
Jin quickly covered Satori's eyes, startling her *
Satori panicked and struggled*
Hey, hey! What's wrong?!! It's blocking my view!!
Jin raised his hand and pretended to cough to attract attention*-ahem!!
Both of them suddenly separated and pretended to be serious as usual
Receptionist pretending nothing happened*-... what do you want?
The other guy slowly walked away *
Jin eagerly pulled Satori to run and put down the mission flyer*-these-guys-want!!
The receptionist picked up the assignment paper, carefully checked it, then took out two cards that looked like citizen identification cards and compared them. *
two brothers then wait impatiently.Then the receptionist quietly picked it up and stamped it. Just waiting for that, the two of them snatched the flyer and ran away *
After following the address
Jin was stunned, not only him but also Satori. The two of them stood there, stunned and disappointed, looking down at the flyer to compare*
Jin screamed in frustration holding his head*-why is VENOM in this orchard?!!
Satori also did not expect the little girl to be bored and disappointed as to why parasites appeared in an old villager's agricultural area *
The old man (the owner of the garden)slowly walked over, mumbling *
-well, well...I didn't think anyone would take on this task...Then he slowly and shakily took out two metal bars with sharp ends on top, and...it looked like a barbecue skewer!! *The two of them absentmindedly held the things the old man gave them*
Then suddenly Satori, with an expression of disbelief, snatched the flyer and showed it to the old man.
-Wait, we came here to catch parasites! Look at this, old man.the little girl said loudly, pointing at the illustration, it looked a bit...like the tentacles of the weird thing being illustrated!!*
The old man holding the paper chuckled softly*
ohohoho... sorry, I drew a spider a bit badly and made you guys see it wrongly.Satori after hearing the word spider, her body stiffened*
-huh, spider?...
Jin quickly guessed the truth and said in disbelief*-so you mean....The old man nodded and walked past them with his caneLeaving the two of them bewildered like young deer because they realized they had expected too much from a mission that only had 12 Cld!!
Satori dazedly talking to herself-hmph... spider, spider...
Jin slaps his forehead and laughs stupidly*
So this is to catch spiders for the farmers during the harvest season...The two of them looked at each other and nodded in disappointment, signaling that they had no choice but to do it.Jin walked to the fruits, tilted his head curiously and leisurely "poked" lightly at a few fruits on the branch.While poking at the third one, suddenly the fruit turned into six small legs and crawled towards his skewer! Startled, he threw it on the ground and hugged himself to defend himself-Mom, how can this spider camouflage so well?with a very shaky and scared voice *
Then he noticed Satori absentmindedly poking at the fruit he had just tried*Jin loudly speaking*
hey kid, aren't you going to do it?!
Satori turns back to look at Jin with a blank look then shakes her head to appear okay, smiling arrogantly but not hiding her worry through a forced smile*-sorry! i was just worried about whether you missed any spiders!
Jin gritting his teeth and clenching his fists, feeling a bit annoyed*
You go do it yourself. Why are you worrying about me?
he raised his eyebrows and stood up, walking towards her in a teasing manner*
or-are-you-scared?
Satori Shakes head vigorously and loudly*
scared?! Scared of insects?!then turns around and walks away sulkily back to the orchard on his right.*
then turned around and walked away sulkily back to the orchard on his right.Watching the little girl walk away, he still couldn't help but feel confused
Jin looked at the girl's back as she walked away and couldn't help but shake his head in frustration at this confusion.-Girls...so confusing...But quickly turned back to the pile of spiders in front of him, scratching his head, trying to think of a way to deal with it*
As for Satori, when she looked at the pile of fruits in front of her, she couldn't help but feel scared at the thought of spiders crawling on her body made him tremble with fear, but still tried to keep calm so as not to be teased by his brother.
Slowly poke the needle into the first fruit, close your eyes and poke it, then jump up in surprise and let out a cute little cry! *
-ya!
But slowly opening his eyes and seeing nothing made him somewhat relieved but quickly became tense when he glanced at a long garden before him. Its breathing only became more rapid, trembling as it clenched its clothes, turning on all its alert mode just to pay attention to the second fruit, Unable to bear it, he closed his eyes and randomly grabbed the fruit and ran away.After running for a while, the girl's heart started beating fast, her body was breathing heavily, she opened her eyes slowly, praying that nothing bad would happen...*
-so lucky!~ Nothing happened.The girl felt relieved, then looked down to see many spiders with fruit butts crawling all over her shirt...Satori quickly panicked more than ever, screaming to the sky, lying down on the grass like a chicken trying to escape from the chicken's mouth!! *
Satori screaming loudly in despair, tears falling in fear*
-Mom!! Help!!! Help me!!! HELP!!!!! Fuck you!!!!
Jin startled by this sudden scream, turned around a bit annoyed but quickly ran to his little sister*
Fuck you, you're cursing me to death!!!
He ran over and looked at his panicking little sister struggling in front of him, not knowing what to do to calm her down. Then he grabbed her hand, causing a few spiders to crawl onto Jin, making Jin panic and follow her to the ground, struggling. *
It went on like this until late afternoon.*The boy and girl finally completed the mission successfully in a lethargic mood and the severe psychological state of Satori would never be forgotten.
[First mission completed!!!]The two of them staggered like office workers
Jin:-Shouldn't you be happy about making money?-Why do my arms and legs keep falling off like this?!...(languid voice )
Satori:-I-hate-fantasy-world ....(both tired and hoarse)
-because of those spiders i have a sore throat...Jin glanced at Satori, who was out of breath
-You kept screaming like you were about to die.
Then the two of them stopped at a public bathhouse .Jin let out a lazy breath and sat down on the waiting chair. He let out a sigh of relief as if he had been liberated.
Satori slowly walked into the shop and raised his eyebrows to look at him-Aren't you going to take a bath?
He sighed lazily and lay down, taking up all the space on the chair*-nevermind~ I already took a bath before, no need...
The girl saw that and nodded in understanding and walked in. While he was sitting and relaxing, suddenly-*
A pretty and lovely young girl, 1m56 tall, blue eyes, light blond hair slightly curly and shoulder length, tied in a bun on one side and dressed like a nun, a large cloth cap is split in two down the middle with the inside being white with a cross in the middle.She walked over and gently sat down near where he was lying.He immediately glanced at the beautiful girl in front of him, his instincts rose again and he quickly sat up straight, sitting up delicately and very coolly!*
She saw that and smiled shyly, moving closer to Jin and placing her hand lightly on his chest, startling him. His heart was beating fast, his mind was spinning.*Because other than my little sister, I've never had such close contact with someone of the opposite sex before!!*
Her voice was full of charm*
-You look so handsome~~ I have something to give you~...
After hearing that, Jin closed his eyes and his heart was beating like he was about to die. He imagined the most luxurious things like kissing, hugging... more lewd than depraved.Waiting for a long time but seeing nothing. he slowly opened his eyes and saw the girl holding out three sealed water bottles in front of him excitedly
She in an expectant tone*-I'm selling lucky holy water to you people, it's only 15cld. Would you like it?!
He paused, a little disappointed at the thought of going "a bit far" (actually, farther than the distance between the sun and the earth).
he shaking his head firmly and raising his hand to refuse
no, no, we have exactly 11cld in our pocket right now, no-
But before he could finish his sentence, the nun quickly stuffed the drink into his mouth"What does it taste like? It's delicious, rich, and full of the taste of the past, like going back to the time when I was a baby drinking my mother's milk?!" he feltShe slowly puts the pearl down and looks at it with an active, expectant look
How is it? Delicious, right?
*then acts arrogantly and confidently, quite adorable *-Humph. I know, you don't have to say it.
-Not only that!!
-It also helps you give back what you wish for: luck, strength. And many other functions for the future!!
She looked more determined and confident!!*-But it's busy today. You're the last customer.
-I'll discount it to 9cld for you, how about that?
Jin hesitated for a while, glanced up at the girl in front of him, so pretty!!*
He nodded immediately *The priest smiled with satisfaction
successful deal!He eagerly and happily accepted his pearl after paying a heavy price for it. He excitedly opened a large amount of vows to pray for finding a beautiful girl who loved him like that nun and would live a prosperous life in the future.
But as soon as he brought his nose up to smell it, he immediately frowned and threw it away. Looking down at the water that was leaking from the clam, it was cloudy, dirty, and had dirt in it, clearly-this was dirty water that was far different from what she had just given him to drink and EVEN MORE CLEARLY...YOU WERE FOOLED!!!*
-oh no... stupidity is rewarded...
He turned back to her in a daze- indeed, she disappeared as if she had never existed along with that amount of money*
-What's wrong, brother?Satori finished bathing and slowly walked out to her brother*
(The little girl smelled quite nice and clean, her hair was now smoother and looser than before)
Jin startled, he stopped for a beat, kicked the boy away and smiled awkwardly towards the little girl*-nothing, i'm just thinking about the future...
Satori frowns in disbelief and sarcastically says*
Gosh, you think like that too? I must be dreaming...
Jin looks annoyed-Hey, stop it.But deep down he not only regretted what happened earlier, but he was also afraid that if this little girl found out...he couldn't imagine how terrible it would be for his sister.*
Next JourneyThe two of them continued walking towards the adventurer's headquarters.The younger sister didn't know what was going on, she was walking around happily, seeming to have adapted well to this world... The older brother was following behind, worried.
Satori pay attention to the abnormality *
why are you acting like a statue?
Jin stiffened-huh?!!He looked around and quickly regained his composure, smiling awkwardly-ah! I was thinking about how wonderful my baby is~...
Satori squinting-very suspicious, bro
The receptionist walks up to them-Sorry for bothering you-
then handed over a piece of paper with lots of words on it
and walked past
Satori and Jin both bent down to read this paper.*
[Payments:
+Occupational insurance 123cld
+Educational insurance 239cld
Insurance, etc...(...)
->Total cost to pay all]
The second one opened his mouth wide and his eyes widened like a ball, unable to believe it.*
Satori: (trying to search her memory, her voice trembling)
-That's right... there's a rule that people from outside the Mixua kingdom, who want to become citizens here, have to pay money
I didn't expect it to be so fucking high...Jin was shaking with fear more than ever. In his mind, he couldn't help but blame the misery this fantasy world was bringing*-This world...is really no different from the old world capitalism!!
-Same bastard!! F**k life!!
The two of them sat down at the table holding the paper, the atmosphere was so quiet that everyone was shocked to the point of being drunk!*
Satori shy and trembling voice *
-I ordered you a chicken rice dish.
Jin held the Menu
now he was so scared that he didn't know how to describe it anymore...
The chicken rice portion cost more than 4cld while the cheapest porridge was 2cld, which was affordable but only enough for one person *
Jin rolled his eyes, shaking his legs in the difficult situation trying to think of a way
-um... out of rice, can I have porridge instead?...Satori nodded sadly *-whatever, I'm not in the mood to eat today...At this time, while eating in this heavy atmosphere, Satori suddenly spoke up to guide him curiously *
-You're not eating?
Jin shook his head in fear-No, no. I stole some fruit and ate it for free...
Satori: is that so?*she scooped another meal *
-But where should we go back to now?
Jin listened to the question calmly -Eh?...Satori followed suit-Eh?...*The two children looked at each other and now received the next problem *
So the two of them had a hard time finding a place to spend the night.
Satori: Oh... brother- this is where we sleep?...
*The suspicious voice is completely frozen in this scene*
She glanced at Jin who clearly didn't want to accept this fact *
Jin nods, smiling optimistically*
- Yeah. It's a bit sore and smelly, but if you persevere a bit, you'll be able to sleep right away.
She glanced back at the area where she would be resting tonight. Yes, it was clearly unacceptable... the little girl painfully covered her face *
But the truth is, they are no different from homeless people now!! Sleeping in a corner of an alley filled with trash piled up in front of them, right next to the adventurer center?!!*
Jin walks over and lies down casually*
-relax little sister, what's wrong?
*seeing that, the little girl could only stay silent and freeze, not wanting to believe the reality before her eyes*
Satori sighing in frustration*
- It's because of your shitty pants that I lost 9cld.
*Jin was startled when he heard about the money, still afraid that if the girl knew the truth, it would be over.
Well the thing is:..
Before that
The two of them walked sadly and wearily because they had already been to more than three rows of boarding houses and all of them charged too much!
While walking, not knowing where to go, Satori suddenly turned her eyes towards the next inn. She suddenly saw the last ray of hope and eagerly pinched Jin's shirt, forcing him to look in the other direction.
- Brother look, look, look!!
- they are reducing the rent bro!!
But Jin didn't have time to see which house it was before the girl suddenly pulled him and ran straight into the house.
- Calm down, calm down, you almost made me fall!
ran straight inside to the center where the innkeeper was sitting across from them, Satori only stopped when he saw that.
Jin uncomfortably cracked his head to relieve the pain in his shoulder and walked towards the landlord, speaking loudly, although he was worried that he would be discovered about the previous incident.
- boss how much is the cheapest room?! I pay!
The landlord looked at the two of them and just smiled faintly, folding his arms.
-The price is currently on sale so it's probably around 20cld.
Both of them were shocked to the point of gaping, but it felt like it didn't decrease.
-"Why is the rent so expensive?!!"The two children spoke loudly in unison with unbelievable concern*
Satori worried *
-how about we pay off some of the debt first?
Innkeeper squinting at the two*
- how much do you have in total?
Satori looked at her brother with determination and anticipation, nodding as if to say, "Take out the remaining money, brother."
Hearing the word money, he was startled and turned to stone, because the priest had cheated him of all his money! *
*He could only whisper:
- not okay with me, what should i say to my little sister?...
his body trembled, slowly pretending to throw himself into his pocket while his head was spinning like a pinwheel, thinking of a way to escape the impending death sentence! by buying time by rummaging around in his pocket.Then suddenly he was so worried that he accidentally tore a hole in his pocket at the bottom, and he immediately came up with an idea to seize the opportunity*
Jin whole body trembling with worry and uncertainty about this initiative but forced to try!*
-oh...
*Then he slowly pulled out his pocket to show her the tear*
- it seems- the money is lost, dear?...
Satori looked at it, eyes wide with surprise and worry*
-What?!!..
-But-why..when did it happen?!!
Jin trembled and bowed his head, shaking his head to show he didn't know.while the body was pounding, worried that this bullshit might be discovered *
landlord interrupts*
-what?
-so you guys mean you don't have any money?!
Satori skipped a beat, slamming her hand on the table trying to negotiate anxiously*
-wait! C-Let us sleep for just one day! We'll pay you later, please...
As for the older brother, he could only stand there and watch his younger brother argue. It was obvious that part of him felt guilty, and part of him felt relieved that he had escaped the death penalty.Breathing a sigh of relief, I thought to myself:
- "Sorry kid, but if I don't do that, I'll be the next one to suffer.."
Then the two were rejected and kicked out.*
*wandered around for a while and found their current place*
Back to present
The two of them were sleeping soundly. Satori was lying on her brother's jacket to avoid the roughness of the dirt underneath.The little girl was frowning as she slept, clearly feeling uncomfortable- not just because of the smell- but also because her older brother was putting his feet on her stomach while sleeping, which was so rude!*
Jin slowly woke up from his dream at night when his stomach growled with severe hunger. He woke up with a dazed face, frowning slightly because of the emptiness in his stomach, realizing that he hadn't put anything in his mouth since noon.*
He noticed his little sister was having trouble sleeping, looked down and realized he was the cause of this reaction. and slowly moved her leg to the side, making her frown and then become satisfied as she continued to sleep.*
tried to move away from the girl and sat up*
*Jin sat leaning against the wall nearby. Looking up at the starry night sky, he couldn't help but smile faintly in this quiet space. *
-What a beautiful starry night sky...
Memories can not help but flood back, his mind becomes calmer and quieter, he confides to himself that *
-It's been a long time since I raised my head to look at the sky... hehe, it's because I've been hiding in my room all day.
Then he slowly calmed down and looked at his sleeping sister. *
-it's scary, time flies so fast. how long has it been since i last slept with little sister ?...
-reality is scary... i've tried to escape from my inferiority, just a selfish guy who likes to stagnate and still expect everyone to understand?
-yet still want to succeed when you yourself do not even try...
-That's why I'm scared and hide in my room, but no matter how I hide, reality will still force me to look at it, right?
Jin suddenly trembled and raised his hand to rub his head. *
-That's why that's the scariest thing...not being able to avoid once again causing the person i love the most to suffer and be disappointed because of this incompetence and lack of determination...
-I'm scared, can I do it?... now I just want to bring Satori home and be happy, but...
-that's why he's afraid, that's why, that's why a selfish person like this is afraid he won't be able to do anything, even protect his loved ones, because he's the first one to hurt his little sister...
He couldn't hold back his tears, he could only let them flow silently, he bent down and held Satori's slender arm, he silently held her hand while Jin's heart was beating strongly, his other hand was holding his heart.
He tried to close his eyes that day because his heart was too scared, but when he saw his sister he prayed for the smallest hope on the most selfish person, Jin.
I hope he can bring Satori home, I hope he can protect his little sister, and most importantly, I hope he can redeem himself whether he believes in himself or not I still try to hold hope in this person.
Just like that, that arm that was shaking the most tightly grasped the thing that helped it calm down the most and then slowly lay down and fell asleep to forget the hunger
dawn is breaking
Satori Waking up in a daze, the first thing he noticed was nothing but the realization that he was drooling in his sleep. He felt embarrassed so he covered his mouth and looked around the hall to wipe it away.
blushing so much
then noticed right under the belly was Jin resting his head on the belly sleeping!!
Satori couldn't help but frown, quickly moved to the side and kicked this guy's head to the ground, causing him to fall down with a thud.
Jin painfully hugged his head and woke up, only weakly saying one word..
-it hurts...
a few minutes passed
The two of them sat languidly across from each other early in the morning at the adventurer's center *
Satori frowning tiredly
- f*- brother, my back is h*ng...
Jin just as high as my sister, face is numb, body aches*
-The road is cold...
- I don't even know when I started eating dirt... I woke up- ouch- my mouth touched the trash bag
-My stomach is as hungry as a black hole!
Satori raises eyebrows in disdain*
- Do you think you're the only one hungry?!
Then the baby glanced at the board*
Satori:
- why don't we go do a few missions and come back to eat?
*The two of us once again understood each other and nodded in agreement *
*The receptionist was drinking her coffee when- startled by the tremor that slammed the two kids' assignment papers on the table *
*The two kids looked up expectantly and eagerly *
*She coughed and almost choked, then looked at the two kids who were quite uncomfortable holding up the flyers*
[Subjugation Quest: A-
+ Gobiln Cave
Max (5/5)
->reward 24cld]
without hesitation return these two *
-put it back.
*The two brothers heard from eager to surprised, not believing what they just heard before their eyes*
Jin shocked *
-why?!!
Receptionist:
-hey, did you guys look at the classification system?!
-Missions from B- and above require a team of up to 3 members. While your group only has 2 people, what the f*ck are you doing! Go away, go away.
*she waved her hand in annoyance*
-go down, down
The two of them gritted their teeth in disapproval after hearing this, but had no choice but to accept and leave with disappointment. *
*The little girl angrily kicked the door open and went out*
Satori loudly, looking desperate and annoyed*
-I'm so hungry!!-Do you have anything to eat?!!!
Jin also quite annoyed, following behind*
- you know and still ask?!!
Usefup waves, shouts loudly*
- hey, for you two!!
The two brothers turned back and were about to raise their hands to greet back as a reflex but froze*
Usefup the familiar cowboy uncle they knew from the past is now working as a construction worker wearing a tank top, holding a shovel, standing at the construction site*
Jin bewildered and confused*
-w-what the f*ck is this sensei?...
Usefup shrugged with an optimistic and playful smile*
- it's okay you two, it's part-time work, quests below B- rank are few, sometimes there aren't even any. That's why I have to work as a construction worker to earn money. It's almost the end of the month and I have to pay taxes.
Satori's voice was filled with shock, shaking just like her brother *
-pay taxes? And we won't be able to do this adventurer job full-time if the party doesn't have 3 members?...
*Jin's heart skipped a beat, he was shocked, the job he dreamed of couldn't be done full-time?!*
