#1
The cold weather was giving everyone shivers. Though it has not yet dawned, Jaehwang, who hardly sleeps, sat on a bed with his legs crossed, meditating. In the meantime, Goongi was there next to him, munching her snacks while watching a new drama series.
Previously, she was a gourmet who only looked for desserts in famous places, but these days, Goongi was just looking for ordinary snacks as if she wanted to get lazy. What she does all day long by Jaehwang’s side was to surf the internet or watch some drama. But these days it’s hard for Jaehwang to look straight at her.
She flipped her arms a little over the quilt to reveal a voluminous cleavage. What about the smooth flexion over the quilt? How did she notice when Jaehwang glanced at her? Goongi fluttered the blanket with a stealthy look, each making a dizzying scene. Yes, lately she wouldn’t want to put any clothes on herself.
When Jaehwang asked her why, her answer to him was this.
“That’s because it’s breeding season.”
Then, she looked at Jaehwang with a lousy look, and if he were an ordinary man, his eyes would have turned around and jumped on her. Of course, Jaehwang was not a rock, so it has been a long time since the two had a sexual relationship. Jaehwang was a healthy man. If a beauty, whenever there was nobody around, would get naked and clings to him, no man would stand that.
But now was the time for training. Jaehwang, trying to pull himself together, closed his eyes and opened the status window.
Then, a broken status window appeared in a mess. Jaehwang was into analyzing such conditional windows these days. Of course, this was also a kind of training, he was reverse-engineering the Earth Defense System known as SAVE. He was learning new things by analyzing the traces of God left in the system. The funny thing was that it was strangely similar to the work of computer programmers that Jaehwang studied.
Jaehwang’s ultimate purpose was to access the vast knowledge report SAVE has.
SAVE was just a cover, and its true higher system was the Akashic Record, a library of all the knowledge of the Earth. No, calling it the Akashic Records was defined by human standards and it’s not its real name.
As Jaehwang learns them one by one, what he realizes these days was that a true god was more of a robot. The cycle of life was fair to all living things. Therefore, it was meaningless to distinguish between good and bad, and in conclusion, it was meaningless to argue whether it was a good god or an evil god. In itself, everything was just a product of nature.
The same was true of God. Even God was one in the great world. Getting to know God one by one, the contemplation of human beings was constantly progressing. What was seen from the eye level of a human being and from the eye level of another human being was different.
The existence of human beings in terms of life was rather harmful. For a simple example, humans were cancer cells. Is that too extreme? The existence of human beings was more of a harm than a good one in the position of God’s. Of course, one might say that humans have a consciousness and can self-purify themselves, so they shouldn’t be seen as such negative aspects; but from the Earth’s perspective, they don’t have to take risks with dangerous creatures like humans.
The reason he thinks of this was that there was a need to shed light on the underlying cause of the SAVE system. No, maybe it was better to say that Jaehwang was standing at the point of a decision to suggest a path to become a god. Jaehwang had once seriously asked Goongi about this problem. He felt anxious that his character was getting worn out, and at the height of his extreme, his commitment to raid monsters was almost gone.
Goongi then suggested Jaehwang one way to find the answer and that was…
KNOCK KNOCK.
“Volunteer Hyungbin! Are you up?”
“Yes.”
At the sound of a knock at the door, Jaehwang got up from his seat. After wearing a uniform that was hung on a hanger, he roughly smooths his hair. As he stepped out the door, volunteers like Jaehwang stood rubbing their sleepy eyes.
“We shouldn’t be late for the assembly.”
“Okay.” Jaehwang walked after them.
The number of volunteers staying in the same building was about 50, and nearly 200 people, including those in other buildings, were said to be staying at home and serving.
“You’re having a hard time, aren’t you?”
“It’s all right.”
“But the facilities here are pretty good. I’ve done a lot of volunteer work here and there, and I think because this one is run by a rich hunter, the facilities are nice. Phew…”
“Oh. Yes.”
“By the way, Hyeong-bin. Are you going to be okay? It’s hard for a young man to do this…”
“Yes.” Even if he gave her a short answer, the woman didn’t stop talking. What face would she make if she knew that the rich hunter she was talking about was in front of her?
“Will this really help?”
“Yeah. Think of it as a pre-experience for our future children.”
Sigh.
“It’s a joke. Oh, my God. Do you hate kids?”
“Well…” A child was an unknown creature because, in Jaehwang’s life, he had little to no contact with them.
“Just give it a try. Don’t think about such grand topics as “Realize the Nature of Man”. Just go through them. I don’t think it’s totally useless.”
“All right.”
What Goongi said was to mix and experience life among people. What Jaehwang lacked was the communication between human beings. Goongi pointed it out and Jaehwang agreed, so he came to volunteer at a place called the Martial Arts Nursery in the welfare district he had created. Of course, his status was a sham.
Not even the most Hunters could recognize Jaehwang’s true face if Jaehwang distracted them a little bit, so with a simple instruction from Irumi, Jaehwang was able to come to the nursery the next day as a naive college student named Cho Hyungbin.
After the morning assembly, he had a simple meal and went to a class of five-year-olds he was assigned to.
Ehhhhhhhhhhh!
murmurs…
The children who woke up from their sleep began jumping and screaming,
whether they knew that Jaehwang was coming in or not.
The teachers were arranging the blankets for the children in between.
A little boy drooled and stuck to his leg, applying saliva to his uniform pants.
“Please collect all the blankets and put them in the cart.”
Passing over the sheets that were peed on all night long, the teacher looked at Jaehwang had him pile them up in a cart outside the door. With the other volunteers, he took them and divided them into super-sized washing machines placed in the laundry room to have it cleaned. They were one-touch washing machines that could even include dry functions, but the work took about an hour because their load was heavy. While the blankets were spinning in the machine, he started cleaning the room with the other volunteers.
Because of the eyes around him, he did not use up his strength as a hunter. It was now the time to play with the children now that the cleaning time was over. When he went out to the playground, the teachers were playing with the children.
The characteristic of the Martial Arts Nursery was that it hires far more teachers than any other normal nursery school, which reduces the stress that the teachers were under and allows them to pay more attention to each child. Jaehwang was assigned with a teacher to help him work at the assembly, and she was a gentle and affectionate woman in her late 30s with the last name of Chae.
When he approached her, she looked pitifully at the children on one side.
“These are the new kids. Did you hear that during the assembly?”
“Yes.”
Recently, there have been more children in nurseries and ironically, many of them came from the Kingdom of the Three Sky religion in Elus. About 20 children crouched in a corner of the playground and glared around.
“I can’t get them relaxed at all.”
The other children were playing briskly, but these ones didn’t even move.
Maybe some of the children lost their parents to Jaehwang. Considering the scale of the crime done by the Kingdom, the defeat was done in a short period of time. It’s been said that the damage was incredibly small, but it was true that nearly a thousand people died anyway. Of course, it wasn’t that he regretted what he did. If he had tried to break down the Kingdom in a normal way, he would have asked for much more blood. The Kingdom’s people were cruel, barbaric and knowing such characteristics as well as their combative nature, the Earth could not lay a hand on them. When Jaehwang broke down the roots of their faith and wiped out all the high-ranking officials who would lead them in a single blow, they surrendered. If the confrontation were tense, thousands or tens of thousands more lives would have been lost. To resume the story, the kids were only 3 to 5-year-olds, but they were wary of everything around them, they were afraid and showing their hostility towards the other kids.
“I’ve heard about the children in the assembly.”
The children were supposed to be mentally treated, but the manpower has yet to be saved.
“Argh!” One of the teachers held a child’s hand slightly and the child bit the teacher’s hand. The teacher’s hand was dripping with blood as if it was bitten hard.
“Are you all right, Mr. Han?”
“Yes, yes.”
“Hurry up and go to the nurse’s office.”
“Okay.”
Another teacher takes Mr. Han whose hand was bitten to the nurse’s office. The teachers’ eyes were filled with sorrow because the children refuse even those teachers who take care of them.
Jaehwang, who watched the scene silently, expressed God’s power to the children without anyone knowing it.
Swoosh…
Jaehwang carried a spirit of will towards the children. The will was stability and peace. As the energy covered the children, the fear that had been in the eyes of the wary children became thinner. Then, they crept towards Jaehwang as if the water were flowing to a low place.
“Huh?”
“The children…”
Jaehwang was also a little embarrassed by the unexpected response. The power of God was so high that ordinary people didn’t even notice the transfer. But the children came to Jaehwang because they knew what happened. Even the teachers looked at the scene with astonishment. The children who were hard to get close to were closing in on this young volunteer.
However, as the teachers tried to approach Jaehwang, the children were still wary of them.
“Look, Hyung-bin,” the teacher said to Jaehwang while looking at the scene.
“Yes.”
“I’m sorry that it’s your first day, but since these kids aren’t wary of you, can you take care of them for a while? In return, I’ll let you out of the small cleaning business. Please do it until we have more teachers in charge. The person who went to the nurse’s office a little while ago was also in charge, but I think you’d be a better fit to it now.”
“…”
#2
Jaehwang, who took care of about 20 children due to an unintended incident on the first day, unexpectedly became a teacher from the next day onward. Such things were not supposed to happen, but the welfare district itself was in the countryside that it was hard to bring in teachers with the certificates needed for special education. The facilities were good, but they are still short on time and lacked manpower for recruitment
.
Jaehwang ordered Irumi to secure enough manpower to drastically increase the budget, and dozens of teachers who were contained in several tour buses came and were placed in nurseries a day after giving their orders.
But the problem didn’t get solved that easily.
“Teacher Hyungbin, I like you!”
“Go away!”
“Ahhhh!”
The children never fell away from Jaehwang. They wouldn’t stop that even when the other teachers were trying to comfort them. The children followed Jaehwang all day long like baby birds following their mother.
“I don’t know why these guys follow Hyungbin like this.” Ms. Chae couldn’t understand this young man, who seemed naïve and indescribable in her eyes, showing no talent for parenting at all. He was neither nice to the children nor opened his mouth unless he had something to say. Strangely enough, however, the children followed him.
The funniest thing was the time when he needed to put the children to sleep.
Since they were mentally unstable, their vigilance was beyond imagination even when they slept. There were no separate rooms for those kids so that they could get along with the other normal children, so when the children slept together without using a separate room, they slept quietly, but when this man was away for a while, the kids would stand up and cry at the same time.
“Oh, I really don’t understand what’s going on.”
To her eyes, that young volunteer was totally incomprehensible.
