Late night.

Cheondo, having washed up late, entered the room and commenced drying her hair. This was as a result of her coaching session had been delayed as a result of Cheonma taking up a brand new disciple.

Sigh

She patted her head with a towel.

Steam rose faintly from her still-damp, pale pores and skin. Her total physique felt pleasantly heat.

The cleaning soap she had just lately bought from outdoors had a very nice scent, too. And todays coaching session along with her grasp had been fairly fulfilling.

If Cheondo saved an image diary, she would have stamped it twice with peach blossom and sunflower stamps, marking it as a joyful day.

So, why did you come right here?

Had this individual not been there, the stamps would have elevated to 5.

I got here to see you.

Eugh

The person, shamelessly smiling and talking with such confidence.

He was a stranger, and so they hadnt identified one another for lengthy. That they had turn into surprisingly entangled, ending up saying issues they shouldnt have, however anyhow.

I introduced you one thing youd actually like.

What are you speaking about? How a lot do you assume you understand about me?

Cheondo narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing the smirking man.

Initially, she had thought he was somebody caught in a troublesome scenario.

Having many issues he couldnt say, and sneaking in, there should have been a motive for that. However in the future, he stormed into the doorway of Dowon, triggered a scene, and caught the masters eye, ultimately incomes the title of Younger Demon.

To the unique Younger Demon, Cheondo, he was an unwelcome intrusion.

There couldnt be two Younger Demons. Identical to there couldnt be two suns within the sky.

There was a motive to set ranks and designate a distinguished disciple amongst them. Its stated that previously, they used to rank them as the primary disciple, the second disciple, and so forth.

Would the grasp see her as the primary disciple now?

-That man, he has potential. Ensure to take excellent care of him as a Sago.

In all probability not. This man was robust. Stronger than herself.

She didnt assume this sense was jealousy. However sitting quietly and watching the grasp reward that artificial Cheondo unavoidably upset.

Can I not succeed?

As soon as this query popped into her head, it led to a different.

Although barely disheartened, Cheondo maintained her shiny facade along with her distinctive appearing expertise. To be sincere, she now discovered the person who had intruded into her quarters unwelcome.

Regardless of how mature she tried to behave, ultimately, she was only a younger lady. Even when she had been an grownup, she couldnt have seemed kindly upon a person invading her house.

-Abruptly.

Then, the person supplied one thing.

Massive, thick, and smelling barely of soy sauce, a sausage. Corn kernels had been embedded throughout the skinny dough.

What is that this?

Teriyaki corn sausage. Purchased it from outdoors. Took some time, however I needed to exit to mark the coordinates anyway.

Teriyaki? Sausage, what?

Cheondo, as if mesmerized, grabbed the stick of the sausage. The decrease a part of the stick was wrapped in paper to keep away from getting sauce on her fingers.

Strive it.

The person checked out her with spherical, puppy-like eyes, filled with expectation.

How good may this be? She took an enormous chew of the big sausage, which was virtually too huge to slot in her mouth comfortably.

It was surprisingly scorching, as if it had simply been purchased.

Ow, huh

Juices bursting in her mouth, the rolling corn kernels, and the candy style of teriyaki sauce. In comparison with the tasteless monastic meals Cheondo was used to, her thoughts was blown.

Scrumptious.

Unaware, such phrases burst forth from her.

Cheondos face, revealing her feelings, melted into happiness.

Regardless of not being notably grasping for meals,

Cheondo stuffed her mouth filled with sausage once more and chewed.

Chunk by chew, she embroidered the style of it into her thoughts.

Sausage. The sunshine of my life. The hearth of my physique.

-Munch munch.

The person watched Cheondos actions with satisfaction.

-Gulp.

The salty style of soy sauce on the tip of her tongue was adopted by a wave of sweetnessa sweetness that appeared to focus on younger youngsters danced on her tongue.

Cheondo bit down, not realizing she had completed consuming, after which seemed sullenly on the remaining stick.

It was the primary time she had eaten so mindlessly, with none manners.

Oh. Im sorry. Was it disagreeable to look at?

Cheondo apologized, belatedly conscious of the mans presence.

No? It was good to look at. It was value going far to purchase it proper after getting my pay.

Saying so, the person took out a tissue from his bag and wiped the corners of Cheondos mouth. She blushed barely upon realizing she had sauce on her face.

However why did he out of the blue purchase meals in the course of the night time?

May or not it’s that he wished one thing from her? After consuming, such wariness returned.

Why are you giving this to me?

I simply purchased it with the wages I acquired for serving to out down there.

May or not it’s that he was a pet in a earlier life? Rolling round with him, all the troubles and issues appeared to vanish.

Ah proper, I considered a nickname.

A reputation?

DoWon. Isnt it good?

DoWon, as within the identify of this place, and also you need to go along with DoWon?

DoWon, Lee DoWon?

Not a foul identify, nevertheless it felt prefer it may complicate issues if not cautious. Cheondo appeared to pay attention to this as properly. Seeing the mans pondering expression, Cheondo snorted.

Then give me one other identify.

Ah, simply DoWon is ok. Lets go along with that.

Alright. Then, DoWon

Wait.

What ought to she correctly name this individual?

After a lot deliberation, Cheondo tentatively floated the primary title that got here to thoughts.

Brother?

Tilting her head and poking her cheek with a finger, she contemplated.

A sly smile bloomed on the mans face.

It was clear he was considering one thing mischievous.

No This isnt proper.

Why not?

How can I name you that while you smile so suspiciously! Dont attempt to look critical now. Its too late to repair your expression!

The mans face fell.

Even if you happen to shut your mouth tight, I wont take it again. Its not pitiful in any respect.

No different manner, I assume.

How about Sahyung? DoWon Sahyung.

It sounds a bit off, nevertheless it may be appropriate.

Cheondo would by no means say the phrase oppa right here, or ever once more sooner or later.

If not oppa, then one thing that matches the ambiance right here like Gege?

Regrettably, the person tried to not present an excessive amount of emotion on his face.

There have been nonetheless many issues to take pleasure in in addition to the sausage.

The person took out a cellphone and earphones from his pocket.

Whats that?

Cheondo confirmed curiosity within the unfamiliar machine.

Ah, that is known as a cellphone.

It contained cartoons.

Cheondos expression become a query mark on the mans phrases.

Come right here. Put one earphone in.

Its not one thing bizarre, is it?

Cheondo lay down subsequent to the person on the mattress, who was mendacity down as if sprawling.

An earphone was positioned in every of their ears.

Then, the video on the cellphone display screen began taking part in.

-one two three 4. Fairly Remedy!

Cheondos eyes widened on the full of life voice of a girl she was listening to for the primary time.

In case you swipe proper, the subsequent episode comes up. Watch it every time youre bored.

After giving a couple of directions, the person put his earphone totally into Cheondos ear and stood up from the mattress.

The place are you going?

Again to work. Theres lots to do and lots to be taught. In poor health come by at times.

As quickly as he stated that, the person disappeared with a mysterious flash of sunshine.

He left within the room had been Cheondo mendacity on the mattress and the cellphone taking part in a video.

This individual at all times disappeared after saying or doing one thing.

Cheondo seemed again on the display screen.

What does he need me to look at?

Nonetheless, it was intriguing.

Cheondo targeted on the exaggerated drawings and sounds.

-Collect the facility of the 5 branches! Yap!

One minute handed, then ten minutes.

Cheondo, who had by no means skilled such issues earlier than, slowly grew to become fascinated by the tales contained in the cellphone.

Its not that fascinating.

Regardless of saying so, she moved on to the subsequent episode.

Her finger swiped proper.

Dependancy often seeped into a persons’ physique very slowly.

Unaware of the night time passing, Cheondo saved her eyes glued to the cellphone display screen.

Till she had watched all twelve episodes of the animation.
