Why are you trying to come to us like this?

Anyway, I have more questions.

“By the way, how old are you?”

“I recently turned 17.”

So 18 years old in Korean age.

is a sophomore in high school.

“School?”

“I quit when I was in the second year of middle school.”

“······why?”

“that······.”

After hesitating, Ryutani carefully opened her mouth.

“Because of Ijime…”

“·················ogue.”

roughly comprehensible

She gets bullied at school and eventually ends up dropping out of school. And the children who eventually become hikikomori.

Ryutani in front of him must have been one of those children.

It is said that Ryutani started to unravel her affairs little by little, and it is said that while staying at home like that, she fell in love with Samsara, whom she met by chance.

At first, I liked the way the world was falling apart, but at some point I completely fell in love with the story. So, she asked her parents to buy and read a book about Samsara, and it is said that she also liked the Dark Princess.

Then I read the Gaiden Dengeki manga, The Dark King.

I was so interested in everything about Samsara, but when I heard the news that Samsara was going to be completed, I was in shock.

“For a month, I was like a waste of time. Because of Samsara, I was waiting for the day when the boy hero came out, and the day before the book came out, my heart was pounding so much that I couldn’t even sleep. She was, of course, the mother who bought her.”

“·················ogue.”

I ended the series because I had nothing to say, but it was the first time I knew that my decisions could affect the lives of others.

No, come to think of it, I had a similar experience.

The shock of ending the serialization of a comic book I liked, and the stories of the sequel that were filled with rumors and the lack of promises made my stomach burn.

So it’s not that I didn’t know, it’s that I didn’t even think about it.

“Then I found out that a magazine related to Samsara was coming out, and in the end, I made up a story I imagined and sent it, and I was lucky enough to be elected.”

“It’s not that you’re lucky, you have talent.”

Without realizing it, the half-talk came out.

However, Ryutani didn’t seem to care much about that fact.

“It’s not a talent. Rather, I felt only the limit that was excruciatingly painful while making the name. Thanks to you, I realized how wonderful the teacher was.”

Hearing those words, Silver abruptly intervened.

“He knows how to flatter, he’s a great kid.”

“Oh, no flattery! And not that kid!”

“OK got it. I knew it. I’m excited about a single word. Yes, I apologize for being a kid.”

Saying so, he giggles.

Seeing that, Tani Ryu hardened her expression.

Seeing Ryu Tani like that, I tried to laugh too, but she held it back. Then she opened her mouth.

“So, you’re a fan of Samsara, so you want to work?”

“I am a fan of Samsara, but the reason I want to work here is because I want to learn alongside my teachers. And if my skills build up and I grow enough to be recognized by my teachers, then I want to continue the story of Samsara.”

Silver laughed out loud at those words.

“Hahaha, that guy is a savage bastard. Are you continuing Samsara?”

However, since Silver spoke in Korean, the exact meaning of the expression was not understood, but the nuance that he was making fun of himself was evidently made an impression on him.

“I’ll do my best.”

“Everyone works hard. Do you think that you can easily continue Samsara with that alone? Is Samsara happy?”

Ryutani flinched.

“Well, it’s not.”

“It’s a proud thing for me as a fisherman to say that you liked Samsara all this time, and that you took comfort in it. By the way, just because Conti or Naim passed the contest, if you came to visit me, I would accept it somehow, and if you thought that you were entitled to continue Samsara, that would be naive. The world is not that soft.”

At those words, Ryutani’s expression became serious.

No, it’s a shocked face.

Silver’s awl-like words seemed to stir Ryutani’s mentality without mercy.

“Do you think that you, who couldn’t stand your classmates’ jigs and stayed at home, can handle so many Samsara fans? Even now, many people complain and criticize Samsara’s story. Such fan letters are also considerable. Have you ever thought about this? Isn’t it?”

“·················ogue.”

“You are optimistic that something will happen simply because you like it. Naim also won the election, so his skills must have been recognized. At this point, he must have thought that he could somehow hang on to the original author, whether it was a togeza or a trouser hem. What do you think, am I wrong?”

At Silver’s sharp words, Ryūtani shut his mouth and roared.

“Oh no!”

“Or what? Then tell me about your resolution.”

At those words, Ryutani stopped.

“·················ogue.”

“Look. I didn’t have the resolve in the first place, so even if I suddenly try to think, there’s no way to come out.

At those words, Ryutani trembled.

In the meantime, Silver’s venom did not stop.

“It was much more difficult than you think for Tengen and Sunny to break through the disadvantage of being a Korean and enter Japan. Prejudice and concerns about Koreans. Have you never thought of that?”

“·················ogue.”

“By the way, you put aside all of that and you are just coming all the way here because you are proud of your frail skills as a fan. That’s why you say you’re a child.”

“·················ogue.”

After hearing Silver’s story, Liu Tani trembled for a while, then closed his mouth and bowed his head. Then he got up slowly from his seat, and he bowed his head to me and the studio assistants.

“I had a lot of lungs today. Goodbye then.”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Having said that, he immediately turned around and left the room.

The fishers who watched Ryutani’s back as she walked with droopy shoulders turned to Silver this time.

However, Silver was concentrating on the manuscript as if nothing had happened.

The fishermen who saw it looked outside again and whispered in a small voice.

“He’s going to go back to Japan just like that, right?”

“Perhaps it is. I didn’t understand everything, but Silver oppa seems to have said something quite harsh.”

“The kid was so pathetic. If it were me, I would have cried right away. Because Silver oppa is so full-faced.”

“Who is the scoundrel!”

When Silver made a fuss, Somi Park flinched and was surprised.

“Oh my, that’s surprising. Why are you so angry?”

“Because you’re talking nonsense, yes.”

“Still, you’re right that my brother spoke too harshly.”

“What is it, serious! There wasn’t a single word that was wrong. Rather, it was ridiculous to see a young guy come to another country to work with a clumsy spirit.”

“What does being young have to do with you? Saying that, Sunny? We’re in a position where we’re giving fish under such a Sunny teacher. And wouldn’t it have been easier to make that decision at such a young age?”

“Why are you suddenly on her side?”

“I’m not taking sides, I’m telling the truth.”

“you······.”

And Park So-mi is pretty scary too.

That monster Silver can’t move.

This is pretty fun.

All you need is popcorn.

By the way, Ryutani is a little worried about that guy.

I honestly have the same thoughts as Silver, but it is heavy to think that he must have been shocked.

However, what is the reality? I think it is better to think of it as a lesson learned from a senior in life.

*

next day.

Hearing the story, Daebong Lee looked at Silver and clicked his tongue.

“Twitter, that monster has no idea of ​​the delicate emotions of a teenager. After all, he must have been a teenager.”

“You can then twist your limbs.”

“Look at that, that one. Sometimes I try to use violence. Because he’s a savage.”

“·················ogue.”

I, who was listening then, interrupted.

“Still, if you came here blindly in your own fantasies without any countermeasures, it might be better to go back that way. And we’re not some vicious business owners, and we can’t just take a child to work.”

“Hey, what are you talking about? How many children are working in the studio in Korea, coming from the countryside as teenagers? And there are a lot of kids who don’t even get a decent salary.”

At those words, Silver said in a pathetic tone.

“Then, is that correct?”

“Who is right? That is the reality.”

“Yeah, well spoken. I was also trying to enlighten him of reality, okay?”

“I don’t know.”

“what!”

The doorbell rang while the two of them clapped together.

I wondered if there was another guest, but when Sung Joon-hee, who had left, entered the studio, she made a strange expression.

“Why? who?”

“It’s her yesterday, and I brought her in.”

Saying that, I glanced back and Ryutani followed me in with a tight brow.

Then he greeted us and said,

“Yeah. I thought and decided all night. I want to work under a teacher no matter what.”

“·················ogue.”

Everyone shut their mouths at Ryutani’s words.

Samsara Multiverse (8)

No, you thought about it all night longer than that?

“Where were you at night?”

Ryutani, who hesitated for a moment at my question, opened her mouth carefully.

“At Seoul Station.”

“Seoul Station······.”

There is no such thing as a hotel called Seoul Station.

You mean you spent the day stuck with the homeless?

The other people in the studio also looked at Ryutani like that with amazement.

At that time, Daebong Lee, who was arguing with Silver, approached Ryutani with a curious expression.

Suddenly, a handsome man with a dappled face pushed his face, and Ryutani stepped back in surprise. Seeing Ryutani like that, Daebong Lee laughed out loud.

“You are Ryutani. Nice to meet you.”

Saying that, he stretched out his hand, and Ryu Tani suddenly grabbed Lee Dae-bong’s hand.



“Ah yes. Good morning. This is Eiji Ryutani.”

Daebong Lee, who grabbed the hand, shook it up and down vigorously.

“Okay. I am James.”

Ryutani, who had stopped at those words, was startled.

“Perhaps, the king of Jungwon cuisine……”

“right. That’s what I’m writing the story for.”

At Lee Dae-bong’s answer, Ryutani bowed her head again.

“Good morning. Sir James.”

“Oh, good greetings. That an idiot treated a good boy like this, I will apologize instead.”

Silver grumbled at those words.

“Why are you apologizing?”

“I have a stupid friend, so it should be.”

“It’s ridiculous.”

Saying so, he shook his head.

Lee Dae-bong, who stared at Silver for a moment, smiled again and asked, looking at Ryutani and me in turn.

“Well, would you like something to drink? Is Ryutani okay with orange juice?”

“Yeah.”

“Yoonhwan is…….”

“I’m done.”

“Okay. Then I…”

“My brother is just sitting there. I will bring it.”

As Mijeong Cha got up from her seat and spoke, Daebong Lee sat down on the sofa as if he was waiting and waved his hand.

“Ah, thank you, Mijeong-ah.”

Then, Park So-mi approached and tapped her tongue and Chan-go led Lee Dae-bong’s arm.

“uh? Why?”

“Come over here, brother. Don’t just sit there.”

“why me? I want to talk too.”

“brother.”

“Okay, so don’t look at me like that. It’s scary.”

Saying that, he was dragged away with an expression that he couldn’t help it.

I looked at it and said to Ryutani.

“sit down. Don’t keep standing like that.”

“Ah yes.”

Ryutani looked carefully and sat down. Maybe because of yesterday’s work, I feel like I’m conscious of Silver. However, Silver is only concentrating on the manuscript work as if he is not interested at all.

“Anyway, would you like to work here?”

Surprised by my words, Ryutani took her eyes off Silver and looked back at me. Then he bowed his head and said.

“Yeah. Of course, the teacher will have to accept it.”

“But, you don’t have much to do here. Are you saying you’re not good at drawing?”

“I will work hard. Whether it’s errands for teachers or other people, cleaning, anything. You can’t give me money. Please feed me only rice. Then I will work like a cow.”

“Like a cow…”
