The food that Seonghyeon would make was simple.

Stir-fried fried rice with a few leftover side dishes.

No one would say that it is delicious to eat, but I have not heard that it is not delicious.

And Seonghyun knew exactly what Yein’s age liked.

Exactly a stimulating taste.

It is highly probable that the food was served by the chefs, and that the dish was treated with health and taste at the same time.

But Sunghyun didn’t think of that.

‘Goes to the insanely stimulating taste.’

There is no house without seasoning.

All of the ingredients that were roasted next to it had the full flavor of the seasoning.

In-hwan, who was watching Seong-hyeon from the side, approached with a puzzled expression on the contours of the food being caught.

“What is fried rice? Isn’t the menu too simple for confidence?”

“Isn’t it supposed to be delicious?”

“Hmm…”

Inhwan wrinkled his eyebrows as he ate one of Seonghyeon’s stir-fries.

“Oh, it looks salty.”

“It’s just because you eat it. Sit down and don’t meddle. I can’t say that you don’t like it either.”

It was not a flashy hand gesture, but a hand full of sincerity in its own way began to turn the frying pan.

“Oh… the smell is plausible?”

“Iknow, right. Seonghyun seems to be a good cook too.”

Maybe it’s because she doesn’t show much, but Ha-yeon was also the daughter of the head of a large corporation.

Of course, he knew what he was eating without even asking.

“Hey, roasting anything smells good, doesn’t it?”

Now that she has her own philosophy on cooking, Yein sticks out her lips and rejects everyone’s opinion.

Still, he doesn’t deny that it smells good, and the two legs that go back and forth excitedly were representing emotions.

“ruler. It’s done.”

After a long wait, the fried rice that Seong-hyun completed was colonized.

“…”

Inhwan, who looked closely at the fried rice in front of him, began to alternate between rice and Seonghyeon.

“Isn’t this… too much?”

“what?”

Instead of answering, Inhwan lifted a spoon and exposed the bottom of the rice so that only Seonghyeon could be seen.

Then, quite a lot of blackened rice grains appeared.

“this is right?”

“I don’t think it’s wrong. Then shall I eat?”

“Ha… it’s done. If I eat this and get cancer, will you cure me?”

“Of course.”

“What is it? What are you two talking about?”

Seeing the two of them whispering, Yein listened to the conversation without even eating.

“Oh, no. It’s just more than I expected… this kind of talk.”

In-hwan felt a little strange because it seemed that it was entirely up to him to convince Ye-in in such a situation, but he swallowed the question down his throat, thinking that it was proof that he was close with Ye-in.

“It’s my brother’s best effort, so shouldn’t we spit it out even if it doesn’t taste good?”

“Am I not that kind of person?!”

“right. We were bewildered at first, too, and he ate every single thing in front of him. If the vegetables don’t taste good, I’d leave them alone, but I’m not a picky eater.”

As Inhwan said, Yein had never left any food.

At least, whatever was placed in front of him, he ate it all, no matter how full he was.

Because I knew better than anyone how precious the things in front of me are.

Seonghyeon’s fried rice went into Yein’s small mouth with a squeaking sound.

The chapped lips and puffy cheeks reminded him of a squirrel, and the three of them were looking at Yein, forgetting to eat.

“What do you think?”

“Huh… um, that’s enough to eat!”

Saying that, Yein’s eyes were very bright.

It’s like it’s the first time I’ve tasted such a simple yet stimulating taste.

“Come on, let’s eat. You and Ha-yeon-san, you know that you can’t leave behind, right?”

“okay.”

“sure.”

In-hwan and Ha-yeon also raised their spoons at the same time, and they ate all the sheep in front of them, probably because the taste was not as bad as they thought.

There was only the sound of a spoon hitting the plate quietly.

There was no conversation, but not everyone in the room found this silence awkward.

“Did Yein eat it all?”

“yes. I don’t leave food.”

“Good job. Are you going to forgive me now?”

“…I don’t know. i’m off now Sleepy. Take me to your room.”

“okay. let’s go.”

Seeing Ye-in approaching with her small hand up, Seong-hyeon smiled and held her hand.

“Hey, Sunghyun-ah.”

Inhwan whispered so that Yein could not hear it.

“why?”

“Chica.”

“yes?”

“Chika Chika Shiki.”

Seonghyeon let out a small laugh and naturally grabbed Yein’s hand and led her to the bathroom.

Yein, who was about to close her eyes due to sleepiness, realized that she had arrived at the bathroom and looked at Seonghyeon with eyes full of betrayal.

“profit…”

“Haha, you should go to bed with Chika Chika. Your brother will do it for you.”

Even when I recall the time before the return, the things that remained only as afterimages of a very long time ago.

In the afterimage of the memory of brushing his brother’s teeth, Seonghyeon personally brushed Yein’s teeth with a smile on her face.

“…you can’t…”

“yes?”

“I…can’t go…until I wake up…”

“Okay.”

“promise…”

Yein put her finger on Sunghyun and fell asleep while standing there.

Seonghyeon moved into the room with Yein, patted her face for a moment, and then left the room.

“Sung Hyun-ah. Still, I had something to say.”

“What to say?”

“Yeah, it’s about Yein, so I was wondering when to talk, but I met Yein today too, so if you have time, how about we talk for a while?”

To what Ha-yeon knew, Sung-hyun readily nodded and answered.

“If it’s about Yein, I should know. What’s going on?”

In-hwan and Ha-yeon exchanged glances, and Ha-yeon soon began to explain in detail.

“When did Yein start having nightmares?”

“A nightmare?”

nightmare.

This is a common occurrence in children of this age.

Seonghyeon looked a little puzzled because it was common not only to children but also to adults.

“You may be wondering what a nightmare is. Me and Inhwan were like that at first.”

“How many nightmares have you had? Maybe I’ve been dreaming for a long time…”

“No, that’s not it. Well, it could be a long time, but I think it was about three months.”

“I didn’t tell you right away. If that was the case, I would have come to use the purification.”

Both of them shut their mouths at Seonghyun’s words.

Since they were not unaware of Jeonghwa’s existence, Seonghyeon’s doubts grew bigger and bigger.

Why didn’t he talk about it, or if he was in a situation where he couldn’t talk, he was taken to the hospital.

“If you didn’t take any action, would that mean that it wasn’t the right situation?”

“yes. Right.”

“Honestly, it’s strange that Hayeon and I can’t take action anymore.”

In fact, it was at a level that the two could directly call a specialist at a hospital if they wanted to.

“So what is the reason?”

“The content of the dream… is strange.”

There were no superstitious people, either.

Throughout the memories before the return of the dream, it had never appeared in a meaningful way for the existence of the Hunter.

‘Or… there was a hunter I didn’t know.’

“Has Yein ever contacted another hunter?”

“No, I can definitely say no. Even when Yein is outside, every move is reported to me and Hayeon in real time.”

“Ha…so what is the meaning of this strange dream?”

Ha-yeon, who hesitated for a moment, answered only after making eye contact with In-hwan once again.

“Sunghyun keeps coming out.”

“…me?”

“yes.”

It must have been a good dream for Yein to see Seonghyeon appearing in itself, but seeing it as a nightmare would mean something happened to Seonghyeon in the dream.

“At first I said it wasn’t a nightmare. It’s such an ordinary and happy content even if you go out to play with Seong-hyeon, who appeared in your dream.”

“…”

“The problem is next. Yein ran into Inhwan’s bedroom crying.”

“I will explain this. Yein jumped in like that and cried and said to me.”

In-hwan, who was full of playfulness, had a serious expression as well as now.

In-hwan, who had a hardened expression on his face, slowly opened his mouth.

“I want you to live.”

“…me?”

“okay. you.”

Seonghyeon is a top level hunter.

As both of them knew well, the measure of its strength was to the extent that it could not be contained within the word ‘top level hunter’.

“But there is a bigger problem.”

“A bigger problem?”

“I felt the magic of Yein, who cried to me that day and prayed for you to live.”

“…horsepower?”

Normal people usually develop their abilities after becoming adults.

Yein is still too young for her age.

It meant that the abilities that only appeared to those who showed the qualities of a top-notch hunter were manifested.

“okay. I was bewildered at the fact that I felt more magical power than the contents of the dream, but Yein kept begging me to save you. Until I say yes. The moment I said yes, Yein went back to her room. As if nothing had happened.”

“That means…”

“right. sleepwalking. And I couldn’t feel the magical power in Yein’s back looking like that.”

It was getting more and more complicated.

Then, all the moments that Yein visited Inhwan were sleepwalking.

“Stand, please…”

Then there is only one answer.

That brief moment when Yein fell into sleepwalking.

That short time was the time when Yein used her abilities.

“I explained the contents to Ha-yeon straight away, and as a result of discussing it together, only one answer came out. Yein says she has the ability to dream.”

“…”

Seonghyeon recalled the question he had buried deep inside.

Yein was the subject of faith who had faith in Seonghyeon.

However, non-hunter Seong-hyeon is not included in the target audience.

‘From then on, Yein was already a hunter.’

However, the magical power he possessed was almost zero, so he was no different from ordinary people.

“Like you now, neither me nor Hayeon-san didn’t believe it at first. I thought it was just a coincidence. After explaining the incident, Ha-yeon spent a few days at my house together, and after the first time she came to see me, Ye-in has never missed a day…”

That was then.

Yein, who should have been asleep by now, came out with a pillow in her arms.

And Yein’s eyes were tightly closed.

“Yes, yes?”

Yein, who had been standing in the same position, moved slowly.

And at that moment, tears began to fall from Yein’s closed eyes.

At this moment, I can’t do this or that.

Yein was moving slowly, unlike before, and the closer she got, the more she cried.

Such Yein was approaching Seonghyeon precisely.

Yein, who finally arrived in front of Seonghyeon, opened her closed eyes and looked at Seonghyeon and said.
