The Author Is Speechless

Chapter 108: A vacation

The days passed one after another and just like that, a week passed. In that whole week, both Ivon and Rae visited almost every historical place in South Korea.

In that meantime, Ivon searched for the other fragments in secret but unfortunately, there wasn\'t a single one of them. So he assumed that they must be in the hands of magicians in this world because it emits mana. Since a normal human or magician can\'t open the seal, he believed that it was safe.

And a normal human can\'t hold any guardian fragment inside their body without any special seal so he wasn\'t worried about it.

Furthermore, the earth was so far away from the guardian realm so there aren\'t too many guardians who came to earth and left their fragments in object seals.

Based on his calculation, there are only 6 fragments on earth.

Ugh… Where are those things? I need to gain more power to unlock my record abilities.

"Vik, I can\'t see any good shells in the water."

"Because the people who run their business took them in the early morning. You won\'t find any good seashells at this hour."

Ivon was sitting on the beach wearing blue sunglasses with a white shirt showing his abs. He was enjoying his coconut while Rae was searching for seashells in the water like a 10 year old kid.

"Oi Vik!! Looks like I found a coin instead of a seashell. Come and check it out."

"No, I\'m good."

"Why? Are you scared to come and check this out?"

After his two reincarnations, his phobia of deep water went away. So he was able to swim around casually no matter how deep the water was.

"No, I don\'t want to wet my legs now. I\'m good under the shades."

"You\'re missing the fun, old man!"

"Hahh!! Who you calling an old man!!"

Ivon stood up and took his surfing board to ride the waves because it was one of his hobbies. It was supposed to be a crowded place but the weather was still cold. So the beach was nearly empty.

"Are you going to play now? The humans around us are looking at you."

"That\'s because I\'m not wearing any safety measurements or any surfing suits."

Ivon jumped on the wave and crawled on his blue board to start paddling with his hands. The waves were big so it was easy for him to start riding it without going further.

The blue water was dragging his board as he tried to balance his body in the middle of it. The sunlight was reflecting on the dancing waves that amazed Ivon\'s eyes. The wave turned bigger and bigger and it eventually covered Ivon in a circle but he still maintained his balance.

The vortex of water was passing through as he successfully went out of it as soon as the wave blended near the shore. It was a successful ride.

Rae clapped his hand as he returned to the beach and gave him a high five. Now it was his turn to ride the waves.

"Do your best."

"Yea."

Ivon went back to his shade and ordered another coconut to refresh his throat. At that moment, a girl took the seat beside his shade and said, "You are really good at surfing."

Ivon looked at her and saw her in a tight bikini with a big hat on her head. She looked like a hooker but a modern one.

"Thanks."

He put on his glasses and looked at Rae who tripped over on a small wave who has half a million years of flying experience. So he smiled a little.

"I\'m Byung Li. What is your name?"

"It\'s Viktor"

"Just Viktor?"

"Yea."

The atmosphere around them became awkward so she asked where he studies. But at that moment, Rae came closer fully drenched and a red seashell in his left hand and the board in his right.

"Hey, look what I found."

"Why did you catch a living one?"

"Because I want to see if there\'s any pearl inside of it. I heard that natural pearls are expensive."

"You won\'t get a pearl from that one. Throw it away."

"No!!"

The girl looked at Rae and her eyes were locked all over his body. So she forgot about Ivon and asked, "You have a nice body. Why don\'t you become my model? I can draw you well. Here\'s my number."

Rae looked at the piece of paper and said, "Girl, I don\'t have any time for these kids play, so go that way and play in the sand like the others are doing."

Well, he\'s right. This girl is only 17 and she\'s already hooking men. What are their parents doing? And it\'s freaking 11°C out here. We\'re guardians so we don\'t feel any temperature. But what about her? Did she wear those to hook someone with her baby figure?

The girl frowned a little and walked back while trembling because of the cold.

"Don\'t you think humans nowadays are crazy about ××××?"

Ivon made bubbles inside his coconut water by his straw because of boredom and said, "It\'s the both parties\' fault because they expose too much. The extreme has become casual and the causal has turned into extreme. That\'s why they face a hard time finding a lifelong partner. The result is this, walking around like a bright flower to attract bees."

"Then what about men?" Rae asked.

"Bees don\'t get satisfied after checking a single flower. Since there are flowers everywhere, they don\'t stop from checking more to feel the forbidden excitement."

Rae took off his shirt to dry his body and used a warming spell to dry his pants. The sun was there but it wasn\'t warm enough to dry clothes faster.

"So, you\'re telling me it\'s both parties\' fault."

"Yes."

"Well, from your explanation, I guess it\'s really the truth. I\'ve never seen a woman walk around exposing 99% of their body. A prostitute from the previous world won\'t show 100% even if you pay tons of gold. Only a husband has the authority to see it all."

"I respect all women and I also like all women. So, I won\'t talk about it anymore. Let\'s just wrap things up and go back to Seoul. I want to rest in a hotel to sleep for a few days because the last time I kissed my bed was in my damn previous life. My back is crying in agony."

"Why do you sleep when you don\'t actually need it?"

"It\'s my opinion. Now hold my board, I\'m calling a cab."

After they changed into their daily clothes, they took a cab and went straight to Seoul to book a room in a good hotel that has soft warm beds.

They were walking across the road when a bodyguard of his father spotted him and called all the security units because he was finally spotted after a week of his disappearance.

Ivon went inside a cafe to grab warm coffee and then a bodyguard went inside as well to make sure if it was really him.

Ivon was smiling at his hot coffee while Rae was taking pictures of a small puppy he found. He talked in Vesa language and said, "Vik, are you sure it\'s a dog?"

Ivon also replied in Vesa that it was really a dog that was scientifically shrunk by some nerd scientists. It went through so many breeds and it finally turned into a small chihuahua. A breed that Ivon hates because it growls too much and it\'s not polite towards its own master.

"Why is it barking and growling too much?" Rae asked.

"I don\'t know and I don\'t care. I like German shepherds. They are easy to train, listen to their master and they will save their owner no matter what the circumstance is."

"But I think salamanders are easy to train."

Ivon was genuinely shocked to hear that he saw a salamander. Even though he lived in a fantasy world for a long time, he had never seen a salamander. Then, Rae explained that it was deep inside the earth and they were fire salamanders. They won\'t stay alive if they come out of the lava so it\'s like taking a fish out of the water and throwing it straight into the desert.

Ivon and Rae took their order and took a seat to finish their meal after a week and then, a man came closer to him.

"Young master. The chairman wants to talk with you."

Ivon put his food back on the plate from his hand and said, "I thought I told him that his son is dead."

"Talk with the chairman or I\'ll lose my job today."

Tsk..

"Okay, give me the phone."

The bodyguard immediately took out his phone and gave it to Ivon after calling his boss.

"Hello? Is this Neul?"

"Yes, it\'s me."

The chairman took a deep breath and said, "Are you in danger? Is that young man with you threatening you? You\'re not kidnapped, are you?"

"Let me be clear once again, sir. I\'m not kidnapped and nobody is demanding any money from you in exchange for my life."

The term \'sir\' made the chairman\'s heart crumble in pain. He was so heartbroken that his son was no longer calling him father. Instead, he was calling him sir like his other underlings call him. He wasn\'t thinking of him as a part of the family anymore.

"Wha..What are you talking about then… Why are you talking like that.."

"I\'m just speaking the truth. The young man who\'s with me is an old friend of mine. You don\'t have to waste any of your time looking for his identity and my location. Please stop sending your men so we can keep on good terms, sir."

Ivon didn\'t know that the chairman was already on his way to the cafe where he was eating his meal with his friend. He was driving his car like crazy because if Neul gets lost again, he might never set foot in Seoul again. It might be the last chance he had to take his son back home because he was feeling like he would never see him again.
