Chapter.13 Typhoon and Gonggitdol

“Let’s play a game. This is part 2 of the bet.”

“Nagii?”

Lulin’s eyebrows wave. It means I don’t like it. It felt like I was remembering my last nightmare.

“hate. It’s obvious I’ll lose again. Last time too, it was a bet that couldn’t be won from the beginning! You are a fraud! “There’s no way what you made wouldn’t be delicious!”

Lurin shook her head from side to side as if remembering the loss. But this time it’s fair. At that time, it was definitely a game where the winner was decided.

There’s no way chestnuts aren’t delicious, right?

Because the night is the truth.

“No, no. It’s fair this time. “Sit down.”

When I insisted strongly, Lulin’s face was full of disbelief, but she sat down on the chair.

“What? Why sit here when the chair is so empty? “Ugh.”

Lurin is a table for 4 people. In other words, there were three empty chairs, and he sat on my thigh as if it was natural, but he was still giving me a questioning look. The gaze is filled with curiosity as to what the bet is.

He seemed so powerful about sitting on my thigh that I actually felt like I was at fault. Ugh.

“I was told to sit down, so I just sat down. “It’s too much for you.”

When I pointed that out, he grumbled and went to the chair next to me. I placed five small stones in front of the dragon.

“What is this?”

“Hehe, it’s a folk game from my hometown, and it’s called Gonggi Game.”

“i get it! Whoever pulverizes the stone first wins? “That’s easy!”

“Foot.”

How can you imagine something like that? Just laughter comes out. Then Lulin started to get angry, raising his arms.

“Your expression is disgusting! Isn’t it?”

“Of course not.”

“Okay then!”

“then?”

“I’m sure it’s not like I’m eating a rock. Then eat it yourself. “I don’t do it.”

The dragon moved to the chair next to me, turned his body halfway, looked at me, and screeched.

I have poor imagination. Well, it’s strange that a dragon from another world knows Korean folk games.

“It’s not like that. You must not use mana when doing this. Dragon abilities are also prohibited. “If you use it, it’s a foul, so you have to do it purely with hand movements.”

Seeing is better than hearing. I started demonstrating it myself.

1st stage. 2nd stage. 3rd stage. 4th gear. Gongongnori continues in 5 stages. It is up to you to decide on the detailed rules. When I was young, I often played the game of gonggi, where when you catch something on the back of your hand, so to speak, you score the number of balls you caught, and the first person to get that number of points wins.

“Hoo.”

When I explained the rules, the dragon’s face cleared of disbelief. It seems like he thought it was a bet worth making. Hehe, I’m sorry, but I’m confident about the air play. I’m not saying I’m bringing up the bullshit for no reason.

My noble goal is to defeat the dragon and teach it a different concept of the human world.

“Okay then, let’s bet 50 points first?”

“If I win, it’s okay! All day!”

“Isn’t that a bit too annoying? “All day long?”

When he questions the bet, the dragon puffs up his cheeks.

“Since you asked to do it first, you can bet on anything! Ho you! Are you not confident? Hehehe.”

The dragon even taunts and taunts.

Well, that’s right. This is my first time playing Lurin. You won’t lose it. I accepted the provocation. By burning the will to immediately change that ridicule into despair.

“Let’s see, if I win, why don’t we take a look at the market? “You should never turn into a dragon, but visit the market politely as if you were a human.”

“Bow to humans? “You can’t do that!”

“So it’s a bet.”

“Ugh, that’s not fun.”

“scared?”

I thought it was time to do this, so I provoked him in return. Then the dragon shakes his head. Those eyes show confidence.

Let’s see if it comes.

“Now, let’s decide the order. Rather than rock, paper, scissors.”

“i get it!”

Lulin is also familiar with rock, paper, scissors.

Even when traveling with colleagues, we used rock-paper-scissors to decide on each person’s responsibility, from washing dishes to cleaning up after. It is a dragon that has become completely accustomed to rock, paper, scissors through its journey to the capital along with Lulin.

Lurin looked like she was contemplating what to pay, and then looked at me with a smile as if she had decided on something.

Let’s see, shall we read Rurin’s expression?

Lurin generally liked fists. At first, he was full of complaints, wondering why his fists couldn’t beat Bogi. You can pierce things like wrapping cloth with your fist?

He was a guy whose destructive instincts were clearly evident. In that case, at least you won’t lose if you put out a wrapping cloth.

“Rock Paper Scissors!”

“Rock Paper Scissors!”

We shouted rock, paper, scissors at the same time. What Rurin gave out was scissors. What I made is a wrapping cloth.

“Wait a minute! “Why are you giving me all the scissors?”

“I did it to cut you off!”

Lulin said something strange and held a ball in his hand.

“So this is how you spread it out!”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Lurin throws out some balls and picks one up. And then I started the first stage of catching them one by one.

and.

“Oh, what are you doing?”

“Hi-Hi. “This body is great!”

He doesn’t waver while answering my questions. Okay, maybe one or two laps.

Mistakes are sure to happen.

I thought so and watched Rurin. The score gradually went up. Lulin picked up the ball with precision like a machine.

Despair increasingly appears on my face.

What’s going on?

As a result, Lulin completed 50 points perfectly without making a single mistake. It was a very bland defeat.

“How do you feel?”

What do you think? I have nothing to say. I can never reach 50 points in one go. In other words, even if you won at rock-paper-scissors, this was a game you had no choice but to lose.

Rurin looks at me with fresh eyes and forces me to answer. I had no choice but to admit defeat.

He was the monster of the ball game.

Unbelievable.

“I lost… .”

“I won! I can’t believe I beat you! This is my first time! Oooooh!”

Lulin climbed onto the chair with a triumphant expression. And draw a V for victory.

And then he jumped at me.

“Then from now on, it’s okay!”

A dragon being hugged.

Quang!

Thanks to this, I fell to the floor. I got crushed by the dragon again. I miss you. The shock of losing is greater than the shock of being crushed.

Besides, it’s impossible to do it all day long. I also have to work at a restaurant. To begin with, being stuck all day is too devilish.

“Rulin, stay away for now.”

“What? The bet is execution! From now on, you are like my pillow! exciting!”

“No, there is another story before that.”

“Other conditions?”

“I’ll give you a gift. “Let’s get over it.”

“What is that! hate!”

“Even like this?”

I summoned a diamond in my palm. Rurin tilts her head after seeing the flash.

“What is that? Jewelry is good, but now it’s better to use you as a pillow! Warm! “Something is pounding!”

“What is that thumping thing?”

“There is such a thing.”

Rurin slightly averted her head and looked down at me again.

“You always looked at the earrings that Bernana Layne was wearing, right?”

“uh? that… “You mean the jewel that shines in your ear?”

“huh.”

“that… Yes. Because it was somehow pretty. You have jewels on your ears too… .”

Lurin looks at me with a slightly curious look. There seemed to be room for negotiation.

Lurin seemed familiar with necklaces, bracelets, and rings, but found earrings quite strange. It seems that none of the dragons wore earrings.

She loves jewelry so much that she is still wearing the bracelet I gave her as a gift on her last birthday.

There is no way to drop it from the body.

“These are diamond earrings beautifully crafted by a dwarf. how is it?”

It’s something called drop earrings.

Earrings that are shaped like long, shiny strings. These earrings are centered around the part that hangs down from the earring body.

What’s special about these drop earrings is that they are made entirely of diamonds. Dwarven craftsmanship went into it. It gives off a very beautiful light. I think it goes especially well with Lurin’s black hair.

It is literally as thin as a shiny string, but it gives off a clear presence. If drop earrings hang too long, it looks rather strange. Of course, this is just the right path.

I am an expert in design and workmanship, and I handle the production request. Naturally, the person wearing the earrings was identified as Rurin.

These earrings are just for Lurin.

“Because I can’t see our dragon being envious of other people’s things. Now, I’ve also learned how to pierce my ears.”

“You can make a hole without me having to drill it!”

“uh?”

“This body is a polymorph anyway, so holes of that size can be created freely. Hi-Hi.”

Lulin gently stuck out his ear. Before I knew it, a small hole had appeared. It is a very strange body. Amazing and convenient body. Well, lizards, a type of reptile, can cut off their own tails.

It’s also convenient for me if I don’t have to pierce it. I immediately put the earrings in her ears.

When you do the other side, the diamond starts to shine. Actually, I was planning to use these earrings later, but I never dreamed I would get them out so quickly.

“Is this what you prepared for me?”

“yes. “These are earrings just for you.”

Lurin seemed to have forgotten about the bet and started touching her ears.

“Am I pretty?”

“Isn’t it obvious? “Isn’t our dragon pretty?”

When I brushed Lurin’s hair, exposed her ears, and showed her the mirror, Lulin suddenly made a shy expression, got up and started walking backwards.

“you… Something is strange with me again! “Your body is hot!”

Lurin said that and ran up to the second floor.

Also, my ears are red.

Reactions like that are common these days. Their ears turn red and they run away. It could be said that this behavior is a bit uncharacteristic of Rurin.

But anyway, the bet was off. You should consider yourself fortunate to be free from the dreadful confinement that takes away your physical freedom all day long.

Outside, the rain started to stop.

It seemed like normal business would be possible starting tomorrow. So, I started making dinner.

Lunch was kalguksu, so I guess I’ll just have to eat something for dinner.

I took out the bread. And then started grilling it on an iron plate.

Chi profit. Cheeeeeeeek!

The unique smell of baking bread irritates your nose. Would you say it has a savory flavor? Sprinkle blackberries and raspberries on top of the golden brown bread. Then, sprinkle some syrup and make eyes with powdered sugar, and your delicious toast is complete.

It’s too sweet, but for Rurin, sweet is the truth.

“Lurin! “I have to eat!”

I called Lurin, but there was no answer. I went up to the second floor with toast.

Lulin was sitting on the bed with a blank face, fiddling with the earrings in her ears.

“You, you, you, you!”

I must have recovered from shy mode when he came over to me as soon as he saw me. The bright smiling face is dazzling. The diamonds are dazzling too.

Typhoon and peace.

Today was that kind of day.
