Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[Guide Boy (1)]

“Hmph~”

Daein hummed and packed his luggage into his travel backpack.

“…This is my first time seeing the Vice President looking so excited.”

Baek Young-hee was looking at Dae-in with a puzzled expression, but was helping Dae-in pack his luggage.

She recently airlifted the items requested by Daein directly from Seoul.

Daein said, extending his hand to Baek Younghee.

“Please give me one each.”

Top-grade magic stone, a specific monster’s nucleus, a waterproof camera, a DVD, a comic book, a basketball shoe, a uniform, a soccer ball…

“…Wait a minute.”

Younghee Baek sighed as she checked the list of items that went into the Daein’s magic backpack – made by Abraxas and with a space distortion magic inside -.

“Vice President. “Aren’t you going to form the World Superhuman Association?”

“yes. “Is that correct?”

Daein looked at Baek Younghee with an expression as if what was the problem.

He was wearing a Hawaiian shirt, shorts, a wide-brimmed straw hat, sunglasses, and sandals.

“It looks like everyone is just going to have fun?”

The great man grinned, showing his white teeth. He couldn’t have looked that happy.

“What are you talking about? “I plan to visit major cities around the world to protect the world’s peace and stop the darkness in this world?”

I was very excited. Baek Young-hee was momentarily speechless at the sight of the great man who was as excited as a child.

“By the way…”

“Give me that comic book quickly. Oh, this is out of print. How did you get it? As expected, our secretary Baek. “I heard that if you just say the word, they will get anything.”

“I don’t want to be praised for barely getting a comic book.”

Even while shaking her head, Baek Young-hee laughed out loud because it was absurd. She asked Daein as she helped him pack.

“How long do you think it will take this time?”

“well. Well, it might take a month or two. If nothing happens….”

‘A month or two? I’ve been through it once or twice.’

Baek Young-hee was sure that it would take at least twice that time. I could have made a bet.

Baek Young-hee narrowed her eyes and looked at the great man.

“…Anyway, please be careful.”

The great man lowered his sunglasses slightly and grinned. Almost all of our luggage was packed.

“Don’t worry. “This time, we’re not going far, but we’re making official visits to each country.”

Even the demon lord has been dealt with. There won’t be any danger for a while.

It’s a tedious task, so you can leave it to the government officials who are going with you this time.

‘He has a bit of a personality, but he gets things done well.’

Thanks to this, Daein was planning to travel abroad with peace of mind. It’s been a while since I enjoyed various hobbies and collected necessary items.

He was a great man whose smile never left his face just thinking about it.

“It’s been a while since I’ve been traveling abroad…”

Baek Young-hee’s eyebrows twitched at that wide smile.

“After all, the real purpose was to go out and have fun.”

“That’s because I said it was both a business and a business.”

The great man put on his backpack and left the room. Baek Young-hee followed him from the side and grumbled.

“Someone doesn’t get a single day off and works overtime every day… Can’t I take him with me? I’ll ask my dad for a vacation. yes?”

At that moment, the smile disappeared from the man’s face for the first time.

“Baek Young-hee. Do you want to do that now? “You never know when the demon lords will invade Earth?”

“…Wow really. “I said this once too, right?”

The two walked down the hallway, bickering. A moment later they stood in front of Lily’s room.

smart.

“kid. “If you’re not ready yet, I’ll go alone.”

“no! hang on!”

Lily’s urgent voice came from inside. After a while, the door opened and Lily appeared in a yellow dress.

“mister. “Which of these two is prettier?”

Lily showed Daein the blue and yellow ribbons she held in both hands. He then put it on his head once and asked which was better.

Daein gave a simple answer. He didn’t want to argue with the kid over something like this.

“You just have to wear both.”

The great man took the ribbon from Lily and put it on both of their heads. A girl with yellow and blue ribbons on both sides of her head looked up at the two people and said.

“Isn’t this strange?”

Baek Young-hee said while taking pictures of the scene with her cell phone camera.

“Usually it’s weird, but it’s cute, so you’re pretty no matter what you do. Right, Vice President?”

“well. “I don’t know.”

At his reaction, both women shook their heads simultaneously.

“Okay, let’s go quickly.”

A man carrying a backpack took the lead, and Lily walked next to him, pulling a child carrier. Baek Young-hee followed one step behind them.

“I’m so excited!”

Lily looked very flushed. I’ve been to other dimensions twice with Daein, but this was my first proper trip.

“Smooth. “Are you excited because you’re going on a trip, too?”

Malang, who had regained her original position – Joo Da-hye had lifted the curse – raised her head and roared.

Kyaaa!

***

The main gate of the Demon King’s Castle.

In front of it, a gate connecting Busan and Seoul was recently installed.

Jeeeeee….

People who had seen Daein’s group off were gathered in front of the semi-activated gate.

Cheonmugeuk was the first to spot Daein and spoke.

“Cluck. “There he comes.”

After a while, everyone who saw the great man’s clothes had the same reaction as Baek Young-hee.

“Tsk tsk. “This guy decided to go out and have fun.”

“Vice President. No matter how much you go abroad….”

“Please realize that you are representing your country.”

Daein picked his ears at the nagging of several people.

“Nagging. Of course, I will change clothes for formal occasions.”

Of course, Daein planned to go to official events as little as possible.

With that in mind, I even selected a civil servant to go with me.

“Team Leader Joo. “Are you ready?”

Joo Sang-wook, who had arrived in advance and was waiting for Daein’s question, nodded with an awkward expression.

“…yes.”

Joo Sang-wook, head of the Superhuman Cooperation Team at the Disaster Management Headquarters.

He received a call from President Kim Soo-ho a few days ago.

The mission given to him by the President was so enormous that it was beyond imagination.

[World Superhuman Association]

Building alliances with superhuman associations in major countries around the world and preparing in advance for future apocalypses.

‘Considering the importance of work…’

Joo Sang-wook was already out of breath due to the enormous burden.

“Whoa…”

Joo Sang-wook sighed lightly and nodded.

“I am ready.”

Joo Sang-wook answered like that and looked at the person closely.

‘Why me?’

I heard from the President that there was a strong recommendation from the landlord to entrust him with this task.

Joo Sang-wook couldn’t understand it. He was suspicious of Daein.

‘Landlord. ‘Is there an intention this time?’

Joo Sang-wook’s eyes narrowed.

But this time, like before, I didn’t do something foolish and hastily reveal my true feelings.

Rather, he smiled and shook hands with the person first.

“Please take care of me for a while. “I apologize again for the unfortunate incident that occurred last time.”

“no way. “I already forgot everything.”

The two men shook hands. With his eyes intersecting, Joo Sang-wook observed Dae-in’s every move.

‘Landlord. This time, I will find out your identity and purpose!’

The man, whether aware of his inner thoughts or not, smiled and nodded.

“It’s nice to feel determined. Then Kiri. “Please correct the gate coordinates.”

“All right.”

Kiri, who was waiting next to the gate, modified the gate’s coordinates.

Wooooow!

The gate vibrated and the location beyond the gate began to change from Seoul to another city.

The gateway technology of the Rorlow race is at a level that transcends dimensions. Moving within the same planet was much simpler as long as you knew the coordinates.

And Daein knew the coordinates of most major cities in the world.

Wooooow-!

“The coordinate correction will be completed soon. “Because it is a non-fixed gate, there may be some distance error depending on the environment of the arrival location.”

“Well, we’ll take care of that.”

Three people – Lily Joo Sang-wook – stood side by side in front of the gate.

Joo Sang-wook wanted to take more people, but Dae-in said that three people for the advance team would be enough.

‘I just have to get there anyway and connect the gate.’

Wooooow!

“The gateway will be connected to the modified coordinates in 10 seconds!”

The great man looked back. I saw faces seeing him off.

“Cluck. Hey. Just try to neglect your martial arts training because your teacher is not watching. “I will scold you later.”

Cheon Mu-geuk saw his student off with a smile and

said, “I hope we can spar properly by the time you return.”

Baek Chang-soo said that with his eyes shining.

“Don’t forget your gift when you come. And… no, it’s nothing.”

Baek Young-hee sighed lightly and

said, “Thank you very much. “I look forward to seeing you again.”

chuck!

Joo Da-hye saluted Daein with a restrained attitude. Her eyes were red and bloodshot, perhaps because she had been working a lot late at night recently.

“manager. I can’t believe you’re leaving again…”

“I couldn’t even have a proper drink with you…”

Wang Gu-ho and Min-jae, who came as representatives of Team 7, had sullen expressions that did not suit their size.

“…mister. This one.”

And Jang Young-shin handed Dae-in a piece of paper.

A list of materials needed to strengthen the Demon King’s Castle was written on the paper.

“thank you. “I will try to get everything I can from abroad.”

“…….”

While Daein was overseas, Youngshin Jang decided to remodel the Demon King’s Castle with the guild’s engineers.

That’s why I couldn’t join you on this trip.

“…Lily. Bye.”

“huh! “I’ll buy you a gift when I come!”

Jang Young-shin said goodbye to Lily with a regretful expression.

Wooooow!

The gate is now fully open. The great man looked around at the people who had come to see him off and smiled.

‘There are a lot.’

How did we get to see so many familiar faces?

The number of connections I made over the past year was much greater than the number of connections I made before returning.

‘I tried to date only the right people who would help me in retirement… but as things got bigger, it got too big.’

But I didn’t want to give it up again.

Because they are all good people and it is a fun relationship in their own way.

…That’s why I become greedy.

Hellgate or whatever, Daein didn’t want to see anyone here die.

A wish that would have been impossible in the past.

It must have been overwhelming just to survive alone.

But it’s different now.

‘I’ll do it. It might be a bit annoying, though.’

The great man quietly promised so. Then I glanced at the watch on my left wrist.

It was only recently that I learned its true name, [Star of Transcendence].

Soon, Daein said goodbye to the people who had come to see him off.

“Then I’ll contact you when I arrive.”

“I’ll be back!”

“…….”

And they crossed the gate.

***

“Huh… gasp…!”

The boy felt like his heart was going to explode. But I kept running without stopping. Because it would be more painful to be caught by the pursuers and die than to die from a burst heart.

Is it fifteen years old now?

It looked like red water was flowing down the bongdu’s feet. Her naked body was covered in cuts and bruises, and her skinny body looked as if it would be blown away by a strong wind.

However, even though he stumbled as if he was going to fall, the boy kept running.

Wow! The boy gritted his teeth.

‘Tribe bastards! I’m going to go back one day and kill them all!’

The tribe treated the boy as a slave and abused him.

The boy was an orphan. It was common for orphans to starve to death on the streets if they did not join the tribe.

If I went into the Tribe, I could at least eat something. They even let me sleep in a safe place.

But…

‘If I had known it was that kind of place, I would never have gone in!’

The boy looked around. He was alone now. All my friends who ran away with me died.

Half of them were caught and killed by Tribe warriors while running away, and half were eaten by monsters.

The boy was lucky and still survived.

However, I myself did not believe that that good luck would continue in the future.

“Water….”

The boy who was running found a pond and stopped.

The boy fell down and hungrily drank the water from the pond.

The color of the pond was green and it tasted strange, but I just drank it.

“Whoa…”

The boy, who had barely quenched his thirst, sat down on the floor.

I had to get up and run away, but my legs were so weak that I couldn’t move my body.

“Let’s take a 10-minute break. “Just 10 minutes…”

the boy muttered, massaging his legs. His gaze was directed towards the direction he had run towards.

There was no sign of the pursuers.

I thought maybe I had lost interest and given up on the chase.

…Wouldn’t it be okay to go a little slower?

slam!

The boy slapped himself in the face to calm himself down. And then I forced myself to stand up.

“You can’t rest until you see another city. “Anywhere will be better than there.”

The boy Kurodama walked slowly.

At first, walking was difficult, but after some time, some strength returned.

It was then.

Fuwaaaaak!

The pond swelled and a huge toad walked out of it.

It was the size of a small car.

“!!”

God started running like crazy. I heard something explode behind me. Shin instinctively threw his body to the side.

Quang!

A toad fell where God had been just a moment ago. The guy opened his mouth. God flung himself to the side once again.

Whirling!

The whip-like tongue struck the space where Shin had been standing just moments ago.

dump.

Shin, whose legs gave out, sat down. I had a cramp in my leg. In that state, I took a step back.

“Ugh…”

The toad made a gurgling sound and looked at God with eyes as clear as glass.

“shit! “I can’t die like this!”

God gritted his teeth and took out a dagger from his arms. Although I didn’t realize it, mana began to faintly flow over it.

Geez.

The giant toad opened its mouth. The moment the tongue fired from within was about to shoot towards God,

pow!

With a sudden explosion, the toad that was attacking God exploded.

And there was a strange man standing there.

“…….”

A man wearing a Hawaiian shirt, shorts, sunglasses, and beach sandals.

He approached God and spoke to him.

“female. Ohayo.”

“…….”

God had no answer. The great man tilted his head and asked, “Is the pronunciation any good?” He muttered and fiddled with the watch on his wrist.

And after a while, the great man spoke in much more natural Japanese.

“Kid, do you know the roads around here?”
