[Seaweed Soup]

Hospitalization was boring.

Get up in the morning for a health checkup.

The attending physician checks to see if the operation went wrong or if the mana in the body is eating away at the body.

Breakfast after health checkup.

Are you a seaweed country again?

Breakfast usually consists of foods that are less burdensome to the stomach.

This morning, rice, kimchi, fish cake stir-fried egg rolls, and bean curd. Lastly, it was seaweed soup that was being served for three days in a row.

how to eat this

I didn’t hate seaweed soup.

However, the seaweed soup from the hospital was bland. It felt like I was eating to quench my thirst, not to taste it.

Eun-ha, who got used to being hospitalized, ate seaweed soup with rice. I was able to eat at least if I ate rice in unseasoned soup and kimchi.

…I am hungry.

After breakfast, there was nothing special to do until one more check-up at night.

During this time, I would usually play with the game console, watch TV, watch cartoons, or sleep if I really had nothing to do.

It’s been more than a week since I was hospitalized, but I haven’t touched the homework in the drawer.

Where do you want to eat?

As the length of stay in the hospital increased, only talking to myself increased.

Quickly exhausted, he tossed and turned. I decided to eat something in the car that I couldn’t sleep because the days I lived in bed were getting longer.

I got out of bed and looked in the refrigerator.

Inside the refrigerator were the cake Julieta had brought, the apples mother had cut yesterday, and gifts from her friends.

From there, he took out a piece of whipped cream cake and a plastic bottle containing coffee milk.

Yonsuk! I knew it would be like this. How long has it been since you had breakfast, do you eat snacks?

So, what is seaweed soup for three days? You know that seaweed soup here is not tasty.

That’s not my job, it’s the nutritionist’s job, so it’s no use telling me.

Eun-ha pursed her lips and protested to the nurse who entered the hospital room.

She, who had worked at Alice Hospital for several years, averted her gaze for no reason, perhaps knowing how tasteless the seaweed soup served was.

She was one of the nurses in charge of Eunha, who was hospitalized in a private room.

Dedicated nurses like her would come into the room from time to time to check on his condition or talk to him.

sister. Did you run away from the head nurse again?

It hasn’t even been lunch yet, but how much they nag in the morning. I’m really annoyed to death.

The nurse talked about the story of the head nurse’s scolding today as well.

It tastes like this too People should eat delicious food and live, not eat only food that you cannot eat every day.

Eunha enjoyed the cake and coffee milk no matter what she complained about.

haha i gotta go to work Can we eat that and have lunch later? If I can’t eat it, I’ll get scolded.

Please enjoy it.

oh i can’t live

Eun-ha sent a nurse who warned her with a stern face.

In addition to the attending physician and dedicated nurses, there were also hospital officials who often visited the ward.

They were all nice to him. At times, it was so extreme that it was embarrassing.

At first, I couldn’t figure out why they were treating me so kindly.

Then, not long after, I found out why they were doing it and burst into laughter.

The reason is-.

Eunha improved her sense of hearing by refining the mana in her body.

Eavesdropping through a door was not a burden on the body.

-You came back to play with Eunha again, right? I’m so happy that I’ve been in charge of VVIP these days?

why. If you’re envious, you can also take the VVIP role. Or sneakily talk to Eunha.

it’s a shame. If you’re not young, it’s a dash.

But is that really true? The fact that the president of Alice Group told me to take special care of it.

He must be a kid living in a conglomerate family. Shouldn’t you take this opportunity to look a little better?

Alice Hospital officials were wondering if he had a deep relationship with the Alice Group or inherited the lineage of a famous conglomerate.

So people who had nothing to do with him would make excuses and come to say hello.

The act of trying to catch his eye in order to be able to rise in the world at least a little was too obvious.

Where there is no need to bear the burden of intention.

Is there any need to correct it?

You’re just misunderstanding it.

for a moment. But what is the morning like? Wasn’t I a VVIP?

A sudden question.

No answer came out.

Anyway, I decided to enjoy this situation. There was nothing to lose, so I decided to watch those who pamper themselves in order to look good to themselves.

It was one of the entertainments of the boring hospital life.

Shall we go for a walk?

It wasn’t long before lunchtime. It was an ambiguous time to sleep.

I decided to go for a walk even to lightly warm up.

Because the attending physician said that walking is allowed.

Shall I go around alone today?

The nurses in charge would notice him leaving the hospital room like a ghost and follow him.

It was not incomprehensible to worry about what might happen to you.

But it wasn’t too bothersome.

Sometimes you just want to walk around alone.

It’s a little tough.

A galaxy that expressed mana in its body in order to erase its presence.

Even though it was a technique to lighten his presence against ordinary people, his body flinched at the moment.

The leg pierced by a bullet was treated safely with no aftereffects thanks to Shin Seo-yeong’s first aid and surgery at the hospital.

However, when he tried to express mana, the wound felt a tingling sensation.

It was difficult to walk as usual. In the end, Eunha had to narrow her steps and leave the ward.

Oh, I just came out It’s not kidding, it’s hot.

June was now drawing to a close.

July is soon.

Maybe that’s why it was hot even though it wasn’t even lunch yet.

Even though I was only wearing a patient’s uniform, sweat dripped down my back.

Still, it was worth it to come out.

Flowers blooming in summer were sticking out their heads along the promenade. It wasn’t bad walking while looking around at the flowers on the left and right.

what?

It was when I came out of the promenade.

Eun-ha found a large tent near the back gate.

People gathered in front of the white tent.

Even a bazaar.

I tilted my head.

At first, I knew if there was even a bazaar or flea market open.

Then, as he got closer to the tent, he realized that all the people in line were children.

Not one of the children was left out, and they were messy and scruffy.

Children wearing dirty clothes are standard, and there were also children who were wearing school uniforms that did not fit their body, were wearing clothes inside out, or were wearing shoes with worn out soles. It was not uncommon for children to walk barefoot without shoes.

The children with the soup on them were getting their meals while standing in a line. They were going into another tent, wary of the children who had not yet received their meals, as if the dishes on the food trays were something that should not be lost.

Come to think of it, today is Wednesday.

Eunha realized what day it was when she saw the children receiving free meals.

Usually, on Wednesdays, hospitals or church charities would provide free meals to children wandering the streets.

Guys! You have to stand in line one by one!

Did you try to touch my rice just now? what is this? Don’t you cover your eyes?

Shut up and eat yours.

The children gathered in the tent where the table was prepared were eating their lunch, glaring at each other.

Older children threatened to keep other children out of their hands, and younger children were eager to gobble them up before anyone touched them.

Wonder Run.

Even though the world was once destroyed and now more than 30 years have passed, Wonder Run has not disappeared.

Because monsters haven’t completely disappeared from this world.

Wonderruns were usually children who had lost their families to monsters, or children born in slums, or children who were abandoned at birth.

The fairy government tried to solve the problem of Wonder Run, but the support policy had limits.

In the yard where there are children for whom statistics are not captured, the protection facility did not even have the conditions to accept all the children. Moreover, there were not enough workers to take care of the children, and there were limits to finances.

Companies and private organizations have also tried to provide free meals every Wednesday to solve this problem, but it has not been a fundamental solution.

angel bro?

Then he turned his head to the boy who had called him.

He was a very small child.

A child holding scrap metal in his hand, whether it was a tin can or a kettle, was sniffing and pointing at the tent.

The child was barefoot. There were scratches on her black feet that had recently appeared in places.

No calluses were visible.

It must be a child who has just come out to the streets.

More than anything, the way he talked to him was so innocent.

angel? My mom said that angels wear white clothes!

The child was innocent.

Eunha smiled bitterly and shook her head.

Angel hyung-ah, isn’t he going to eat?

I’m fine.

Eunha answered the sniffling child and moved out of the way for the child to climb the stairs.

Seaweed soup came out today. My older brothers who live with me said that the seaweed soup at Alice Hospital was the best.

Can you not eat my brother?

…Yes, I ate earlier. you go to eat If I’m late, won’t I get it? Oh right!

The child was startled.

As I stomped my feet, I heard the sound of the coins inside the scrap metal clicking.

hey! You’re not coming, what are you doing there?

Are you saying you can’t eat?

Didn’t I tell you not to look away and follow me well?

The children who had just run to line up at the tent came back. It seemed that he was worried because the child did not come even after waiting.

“uh?”

The children who were running discovered the galaxy belatedly.

The children all shut their mouths.

If the sniffling child had not been out on the street for a while, the children staring at each other seemed accustomed to life on the street, judging from their burnt appearance.

you idiot! Aren’t you talking to that kid? uh? why? Can’t you talk to me? Are you an angel brother? My mom did it, but the angel ha…

Hey, you told me not to talk about my mom.

Look Carefully. You are wearing a patient gown. The body is also clean. I mean, he’s a different kid than us. I am not the angel you speak of.

is that so? Aren’t you an angel?

The child asked, waving the scrap metal in his hand.

Eunha didn’t say anything. He just nodded slightly.

Then, the children who were accustomed to street life bowed their heads.

Even pressing the head of a sniffing child.

sorry. It’s because he doesn’t know yet.

“sorry.”

sorry?

The last child whose mother was raised was a sniffling child.

Eunha looked at the children quietly. By the time the children raised their heads to look, they only pointed at the tent with their fingers.

The children lowered their heads again and ran toward the tent, carrying the sniffling child.

A few of them glanced back and caught their eyes on Eunha, who was looking up over the stairs.

It wasn’t just them. The children lined up in front of the tent and the children gathered at the table to eat were staring at him sideways.

Emotions in children’s eyes are feelings such as envy, envy, and jealousy.

Some of them looked down at their condition and lowered their heads to avoid showing their distorted faces.

There were also children who swallowed food so hard that their cheeks burst, and tried to chew it over and over again as they tried to burst out.

Eunha didn’t know what those children were thinking.

If you do this, seaweed soup is delicious or not, you can’t complain.

It wasn’t that I sympathized with the children. I didn’t feel pity or pity for it.

He might have been getting lunch in that procession, too.

just got lucky

Having lost his family before returning, he was lucky enough to be raised by his grandmother.

So I couldn’t sympathize with Wonderrun.

He had no right to sympathize with the children who lived like stubborn people.

The only people who were qualified to sympathize with them were those who could share their own happiness, not those who compared their happiness with those of others and were relieved.

why are you ‘here’?

‘here’? Or here?

It’s street bing-gu.

know what to do

what if you know why? Do you think only you came out here with something difficult to say?

Visil look at him. He said his family was eaten by monsters. And why does the other half look like that…

…the Kraken. Why did the Kraken kill my family?

No big deal. My friend and my friend’s friend came out because of the Kraken.

…Is it the Kraken?

Eunha muttered inwardly.

He seizes the future of saving his family from the Kraken. At the same time, it resulted in a significant reduction in the number of deaths compared to before the regression.

But the results were just numbers.

No matter what the numbers say, no matter how many people die, in the end people die.

Above all, by changing the future, the person who should have died might have lived and the person who should have lived could have died.

The conversations of passing children were the future he changed.

…I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel guilty.

But that’s it. I didn’t regret it.

He would have made the same choice over and over again.

So, I had no right to sympathize with those children.

He had no intention of sharing his happiness with those children.

be selfish alone

You only seek your own happiness.

madam! They said they ran out of seaweed soup!

Still, where’s the cup noodles! I like cup noodles too.

I still want to eat warm rice.

Hey, did you tell me not to say that? Do you want to hit again?

The wonder runners passing by this time were girls. They deliberately pretended not to see him and ran chattering among themselves.

Did the child receive seaweed soup?

I was suddenly soaked in emotion.

I shook my head.

It didn’t fit. didn’t answer

I didn’t know what happened to the child.

I was deeply immersed in my thoughts and sympathized with others.

He moved his heavy feet, admonishing himself.

uh? Is it okay to come out of the colon?

Didn’t you sneak out?

On the way back, I met some friends.

The children were staring at him curiously as he walked in from the back door.

you guys. Isn’t it time to be at school now?

Captain, today is the school’s anniversary.

…Envy you.

I don’t think that’s what you, who is in the hospital, would say, right?

Minji replied with a puzzled face.

Eunha calmly nodded her head. What she said was right.

huh? why are you like this? what. Why are you not answering today?

Minji tilts her head.

Thinking that he would quarrel with her, she was surprised to see him different from what she expected.

There is such a thing.

It was a day when I became sentimental.

Eunha didn’t answer, but smiled at the food the children brought.

You can not buy it. a lot in the fridge Come on? Did I bring this to eat? This hamburger is mine. I’m afraid you’ll be bored. We all came to eat together.

Seo-na explained the reason why she did not stop at home and went to the hospital even though it was the school’s anniversary.

Embarrassed Eunha scratched her cheek.

It was then.

uh? What is that? Are there crowds of people? sell anything?

Eunhyuk pointed to the white tent behind Eunha.

huh? Are there a lot of kids?

excuse me? I know. What are you doing?

Minji and Hayang also showed interest. The two could only see the children lined up in front of the tent, but the clothes of the children in the distance could not be seen.

At that time, children who had eaten free meals were coming down the stairs.

Come quickly next week. I thought I was starving to death standing in line.

Now that I’ve had a full stomach, would you like to go to Cheongnyangni today? Cheongnyangni? What’s there?

I hear there’s a lot of work in the back alleys there? Even so, the older sisters are shidabari, but they say that the earnings are good. How much can you earn? Shall we go! Let’s go once….

I met the eyes of the children who were coming down.

The soiled children passed by with their heads bowed in surprise.

The child, who was already running away, was rubbing her eyes with the back of her hand.

Leader? This…?

Eunhyuk looked at the children walking away and made an expression that he didn’t know what to say.

Earlier, they…

were very scared.

Minji and White secretly clung to Eunha.

He seemed surprised to see Wonderrun’s behavior.

It was worth it.

There were no parents who told their children about the existence of Wonder Run.

And Wonder Run lived in the slums or on the roadside where people couldn’t reach.

There was no way that children who knew only school and playground would face Wonder Run.

today was the day

On the other hand, Seo-na was calm.

Eunha seemed to know why she wasn’t afraid.

she was ain

She was abandoned by her parents as soon as she was born, but luckily she was able to grow up in the church. It was no wonder that she knew about Wonder Run, having seen children in a similar situation at church.

─You don’t have to know.

yet.

Eun-ha turned her gaze to the flower field.

One day, the day will come when these children will know the other side of the once destroyed world.

It was unavoidable. Even if I wanted to

avoid it

, the other side was melted so close that I couldn’t avoid it.

it’s standing

huh.

Don’t bring the kids on Wednesdays.

yea, I got it.

You don’t have to know now.

A cruel world for children to know.

Eun-ha decided to have lunch with the children who were speechless.

Seaweed soup was also served at lunch that day.

It also had no taste.
