the adult trio dynamic is so good right off the bat and i love them so much

[immortal-tale]

My companions seemed to be enjoying themselves. Han Su-Yeong was busy reciting parody poems, while Jeong Hui-Won had fallen asleep among the grass. Yi Gil-Yeong and Shin Yu-Seung were butting heads and growling at each other.

“Hey, Shin Yu-Seung. Let’s make a bet. Let’s see who can catch the bigger dinner today.”

“What are we betting on?”

“The loser grants the winner one wish, okay?”

“Call.”

The kids quickly sprinted towards the forest and Yu Sang-Ah called out to them. “Be careful.”

There was a small valley with a flowing stream next to the campsite; Gong Pil-Du sat on the fishing chair he brought along, and while looking at his lure in the water, he yawned out relaxedly. Han Myeong-Oh sitting next to him was muttering about this and that.

“If only we were out by the ocean, I’d have caught a seabream this big….”

I heard the refreshing sounds of water flowing in the valley as well as mountain birds chirping away. It felt as if the calming greenery of the overgrown mountainside was slowly collapsing on myself.

It was as if I was still dreaming.

I searched for Yu Jung-Hyeok.

He was actually cooking over there. Standing before a large grille, his hands were moving around in a showy fashion to grill some meat. Vegetables were sizzling and shuddering inside the frying pan. The [Breaking the Sky Swordsmanship] capable of destroying the heavens was now used to chop vegetables and meat.

I even forgot to call out to him and stared at that spectacle in a pure daze.

His sides were occupied by both Yu Mi-Ah and Yi Ji-Hye, their eyes filled with deep interest and anticipation.

“Now.”

Yu Mi-Ah opened her mouth, and Yu Jung-Hyeok moved his chopsticks with an emotionless face. He was like a mother bird, picking up a piece of meat to place it in her mouth. She grinned brightly.

“It’s really tasty.”

Yi Ji-Hye blankly standing around opened her mouth, too. He studied her for a moment or two, before placing more meat inside Yu Mi-Ah’s mouth, instead. That carried on for four, maybe five more times, and eventually, Yi Ji-Hye shut her mouth.

“Master, you’re too heartless.”

Unable to endure it any longer, she personally moved her chopsticks. However, his frying pan shifted according to the eye-catching trajectory of the [Red Phoenix Shunpo] to avoid her hands. She grew tearful first before getting rather stubborn about it.

“Oh, so you wanna have a go, is that it??”

He continued evading Yi Ji-Hye’s chopsticks and fed his little sister Yu Mi-Ah without twitching his eyebrows once, remaining utterly expressionless. However, there was something I could glean from that.

“H-hey, Yi Gil-Yeong!! We agreed not to use any skills here, didn’t we?!”

“When did I?! You gotta give it your best always!”

I heard the kids’ voices as they were returning with hunted prey.

Soon after that, I heard Han Su-Yeong’s loud call that reverberated throughout the valley. “Alright, then. The treasure hunt event will now begin! The prize is a Star Relic from the Black Flame Dragon!”

“Whaa, really? From that Black Flame Dragon?”

“I’ve hidden it somewhere in the valley, so the first one to find it is the winner! Ah, right. You’re forbidden from using your skills. Got that? Besides that, there are other prizes too, so…..”

“That Star Relic is mine!”

Han Myeong-Oh quickly discarded his fishing rod and jumped inside the stream, but a little while later, Jeong Hui-Won grabbed hold of his head and threw him out of the water. In no time at all, Yi Ji-Hye and the kids returning from their hunting trip all jumped into the valley’s water, too.

“Yo, hold up, Ji-Hye noona!! That’s [Ghost Fleet]! You think I won’t notice it just because they are tiny now??”

“Yi Gil-Yeong! Are you seriously taming water bugs? You cheater!?”

“Both of you, disqualified!”

How long had it been since all of my companions were smiling together like this? Maybe, this could be our first time. They were able to smile even though the scenarios hadn’t ended yet. They were able to chat away in happiness like that, and share their stories.

...

We looked over in the direction he was pointing at. And straight away, we became utterly speechless.

⸢They were now witnessing the essence of cooking.⸥

We all settled down quietly on the table like a bunch of mice that got entranced by the pied piper, and then, began rubbing our eyes in disbelief.

These were dishes created out of the monster that Yi Gil-Yeong and Shin Yu-Seung caught, as well as with the medicinal herbs Yi Seol-Hwa had found. No, hang on…. How could he even come up with a feast of this scale with only those ingredients?

I was pretty certain that the dining table of ‘Shi Huangdi who dreamed of Immortality’ wouldn’t be as flashy as this one.

“Wow. Master, you gotta come and cook during my funeral, okay?”

“Why your funeral, though? That’s really an ominous declaration, you know.”

The group began hurriedly chowing down the grub. Jeong Hui-Won, Yi Ji-Hye, Han Myeong-Oh, Gong Pil-Du, even Jang Ha-Yeong…. They were all seriously focused on eating right now.

Even Han Su-Yeong and Yu Sang-Ah, too.

“Hey, hold up. That’s my share.”

“There’s enough to go around for everyone. Why are you being so greedy?”

...

When I raised my head, I noticed that the once-noisy surroundings had fallen into an eerily silence. Yi Ji-Hye, Jeong Hui-Won, Gong Pil-Du…. even Han Su-Yeong was looking at me, her mouth agape.

Jeong Hui-Won was the first to fire the salvo. “….In that case, Dok-Ja-ssi, you’ll be paying for the house, yes?”

….Ng?

“Ahjussi, you’re really loaded, so you might be able to get a house in Gangnam.”

“I’ll sell you my land.”

“If it’s possible, somewhere close to the kids’ school….”

I had no idea that something I just threw out there would cause such a ripple.

And so, the group chatted about the potential house I’d buy throughout the supper. Stuff about how the interior should look like, or how many rooms it needed to have….

Washing the dishes was left to me and Jeong Hui-Won, the two losers from the rock-paper-scissors. I could have won by using [Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint], but of course I wouldn’t do that during this trip.

[You have acquired a new Fable!]

[You have acquired the Fable, ‘the One who Yanked Out the Conscience’s Fur’.]

….Also, it was nice to get a new Fable, too.

Reading One Piece pt 208: Everything Is Explained

Chapter 455

Thoughts:

- Fpos/cs: “The professor’s revenge! There are times when a man has to do what a man has to do.” What, like die?

- Is that spider done for or not

- Zombies have souls? Huh

- Yeah, the spider is down

- “Look! It’s definitely him… “Humming”! The man who messed up Thriller Bark five years ago!” little spider clearly know about Brook, respect. Why do they call him “Humming”?

- Looks like we got new trio :D I’ll call them Olds :D

- “There is a high chance we’re already too late” there’s no “too late for rescue” with Straw Hats, Brook. Don’t worry, you’ll catch up

- “Yohohoho! Skull joke!” “Stop it. He’s already dead” :D

- Ah, so Brook drifted on Thriller Bark 5 years ago and hoped he’ll find some spare parts to repair his ship. All he got was zombies

- Ok, he’ll tell it better:

“I was caught and brought to that building. What I saw inside was… the struggling dancer who had been caught before me and a patched corpse they called “Mario”. …When I looked up, a big, scary man appeared and… he pulled the man’s shadow off of the floor! And he cut it off!”

- “I would doubt my eyes… but I don’t have eyes!” “You can hit him now” this is comedy :D

- Ok, back to the story:

“I soon followed the same fate, but… The person whose shadow was taken fell, and his cut off shadow… was pushed into the motionless “Mario”. And then, for some reason… That “Mario” who was supposed to be a corpse… all of a sudden started moving!” OH NO THIS IS BAD

- (looks like Zoro and Sanji already lost their shadows. And I’m again sorry for Brook. And there’s so much zombies on this island… damn…

- “A “shadow” is “another soul” that follows a person wherever he goes. It’s the same for your shadows. Naturally… from the moment people are born until the moment they die, it’s a soul that is supposed to continue following you, and never detach itself from you” this is very philosophical, spiritual even

- “The big man who can take shadows and make them follow him is… Shichibukai Gecko Moria! He has eaten the “kage kage no mi” Devil’s Fruit!” “Kage” means “shadow”, I watched Naruto so I know. And that explains everything! Except why Moria is doing it. And is it reversable? I sure hope so

- “He revives the bodies of legendary warriors, from cementeries all over the world” WHY

- “The personality” and “fighting abilities” are all that of the “Shadow’s master” and the power of the body depends on the physical strength of the “Mario”.” Pretty simple. Now can someone tell me Zoro’s shadow got “Mario” of a legendary swordsmaster while Sanji’s got a penguin

- “If you combine a stronger body and shadow, you can create a stronger zombie soldier. So Moria wants the shadows of those with wanted posters quickly.” That makes sense. Again, why penguin, did they not have any spare corpses

- Wait, this is important

- “If you only take the “shadow” that has the same fighting abilities as the actual person, you have no need for the real thing, who probably won’t listen to you. The ones who faint are immediately sent to drift out to sea.” !!!! Zoro and Sanji are probably already out!!! And Luffy can’t swim!!!

- Ok, Olds are making rescue plans

- AND WE ARE SEEING GECKO MORIA

- YOU ARE UGLY SIR

- Another warlord who wants to be The Pirate King

- Luffy is here! Kick Moria’s ass as you did Crocodile’s, Luffy! Come on!

- Oh right, he’s in the cage. It’s ok, I’ll wait

- Moria says they so far caught Zoro “The Pirate Hunter” and “A man with silver hair”. Since when Sanji’s hair are silver

(the important thing is Sanji sounds beautiful so I’ll let it be)

- Oh right, Sanji’s wanted poster was a joke. So they don’t really know who he is or what he looks like. THAT’S why penguin

- Look, Scaredy Cat Trio is here too (inside the Mute on Order zombie)

- “Master! The pirate has eaten through the steel and is escaping!” …Luffy, how

- Ah, Perona stopped him

- Oh no oh no oh no oh no noooooo

- They cut Luffy’s shadow off

AAAAAAAAAAA
