Chapter 348
Before returning to Tallinn, we decided to spend a whole day at the grand house of the von Walden family.
For some reason, the members were extremely happy that we could stay longer in my hometown.
My parents were also happy and applauded.
The problem was that they were a little too happy.
"It's been a long time since my son was home, so it's even better! Do you want to sleep in the bedroom with me?"
"It, it's okay. Mom. I'm a grown man now."
"You used to whine to sleep with me.......... When did you grow up so much.........."
"T-T-That's not it! Didn't the members come with me? I'm just a little anxious about sleeping somewhere else while leaving the members alone!"
"I guess that's what it is?"
Since returning to the real world, have I ever been this flustered and embarrassed?
After hearing Freya's words, I wondered if my past self really wanted to sleep with my parents, but when I immediately recalled my memories, several similar scenes came to mind and I was momentarily startled.
'How on earth did you draw me as a child, system?'
Still, I was able to refuse without hurting my mother's feelings as much as possible by making excuses about the members who came with me.
"Let's sleep together next time, okay?"
".........Yes, mom."
Of course, I could only be released after making this promise.
I left the living room and headed to the bedroom that I would share with the members tonight.
It was called a bedroom, but it felt bigger than the living room in our accommodation in Korea.
"Oh, the owner of the house is here!"
"Did you have a nice chat with your parents after a long time?"
"Yes, we had a nice chat."
The members were already well prepared.
They were lying on the floor, as if they were on a school trip, with seven soft blankets lined up in a row.
Heo Yu-bin was rolling around in a blanket like a caterpillar, squirming happily.
"It really feels more comfortable than most hotels! I'm so happy."
"Yeah, I think it's fortunate that it's better than a hotel. Heo Yu-bin won't steal our blanket."
"The, there's nothing you can do about the sleeping habits!"
Yoo Min-ha, who shared a room with Heo Yu-bin, spoke as if he was very grateful that our house provided one blanket per person.
However, Song Hyung-bin refuted Yoo Min-ha's words, recalling the unity mission that had taken place a while ago.
"But when we slept in the tent back then, we each had one blanket. But didn't Yubin steal all the blankets from the person next to him?"
"...I was really cold."
"Hey, how could you steal the youngest's blanket like you have nothing to steal, Yubin?"
"I was really tired, lonely, and cold."
Now Ji Yoon-chul has developed a mischievous nature to the point where he quickly joins in when the members are teasing someone.
When he spoke as if he was truly lonely and upset, Heo Yubin was instantly identified as the culprit.
"Wow, where can you find a brother who steals the youngest's blanket?"
"Yubin is bad."
"How can you covet someone else's blanket, leaving your own blanket behind, Yubin? I'm so disappointed."
"Ah, ah, ah, uh, that's it!"
When I joined in playfully teasing Heo Yubin, Heo Yubin stuttered like a broken robot.
He used to be timid, but now he's improved a lot, and the number of times he makes mistakes like this has decreased, but for the first time in a long time, Heo Yubin looked flustered.
Heo Yu-bin seemed to be thinking about how to overcome this situation while shaking both hands.
The method he chose when he was in a corner.
"I, I won't sleep under the blanket today! Just take my blanket! I can just sleep on the floor! Okay! Yoon-chul, take mine!"
"Ugh."
"Oh my, sorry!"
He immediately passed his blanket to the member next to him and slept on the bare floor.
However, because he was acting in such a hurry, Heo Yu-bin didn't just casually throw the blanket over him but threw it away.
As a result, the blanket and the two pillows flew at Ji Yoon-chul's face, who was sitting still.
Ji Yoon-chul, who was becoming more and more accustomed to entertainment, fell backwards like a paper doll as soon as the blanket hit his face.
Heo Yu-bin was even more flustered and dug Ji Yoon-chul out from under the blanket.
However, it seemed like the youngest had a plan.
"Yoon-chul, wake up!"
"...Got it."
"Huh?"
Ji Yoon-chul grabbed Heo Yu-bin's hands tightly and winked at us.
"Hyungs, I caught you."
"Let's go!"
"Ah! Aaaah! Wait! Waaaaiiit-!"
We indiscriminately attacked Heo Yu-bin, who was captured like easy prey.
The ultimate attack was none other than tickling.
Everyone knew how much tears would flow if they were tickled while tied up.
It was much more effective than physical attacks.
"Aaaah! Surrender! Surrender! Save me!"
"You always avoid going into the water by yourself, and you even throw the blanket at the youngest."
"I was wrong! Please save me!"
Heo Yu-bin's feeble plea echoed through the air.
I couldn't help but laugh as I looked at the room that had turned into a high school field trip night.
Heo Yu-bin, who was barely freed from this bondage, snorted and took refuge in a corner.
"I won't sleep tonight. I clearly said so. This is war!"
"Oh, you're doing a lot of that war by yourself."
"Guys, should we turn off the lights and go to bed now?"
"Yes!"
"....We have to cook starting tomorrow, so it would be better to go to bed early."
"I, no one is listening to me?"
Heo Yu-bin declared war, burning with revenge, but was completely ignored by everyone.
As they laughed and chatted away without realizing how time passed, it was already close to 2 AM.
Now it was time to really sleep.
"Good night, everyone."
"Good night!"
"You know we have to do really well tomorrow, right?"
"Yeah, same."
"Eun-gyu Hyung. I always say this, but you're the most I am anxious about."
"Ah, tomorrow is really, really different. I'll really try hard."
The largest scale project in our own content history.
Tomorrow is the first filming of the long-awaited
I did image training, thinking about how to hold a knife in my head right up until right before I went to bed.
The mindset itself is different.
The cooking content we've done so far was more like a one-time thing, and we were trying to eat it ourselves, not for others to eat.
However,
We really have to work hard.
'Even this is my home country. We should never lower Estonia's expectations.'
It was a night when a special sense of mission blossomed in my heart.
***
"Thank you so much for the day!"
"Thank you!"
"I want to come back and play again!"
The next morning, we thanked my parents and prepared to return to Tallinn.
The members were completely captivated by the beauty of Sagadi and kept saying that they wanted to come back again.
After hearing my interpretation, my parents smiled brightly and said that they could come back and play anytime.
"Karis, you always need to stay healthy, you know that?"
"Yes. I always take care of my health."
"Oh my, I wish you could go a little later."
"I'll definitely come back on my next vacation."
My mother hugged me tightly and expressed her regret.
I felt so unfamiliar and grateful for this desire to spend more time with her son whom she hadn't seen in a long time.
I made a promise to myself that I would definitely visit Estonia alone during my vacation.
'It's just amazing. It even made me develop a bond with my parents that I never had before.'
I felt once again that the god-given system of
Oh. It tried to take care of even what I lacked like this, and Frederick von Walden held my hand tightly and encouraged me.
"Life in a foreign land must be hard, but don't forget that we are always cheering you on, Karis."
"Thank you, Father. I will definitely come back to see you in good health."
"Okay. Leave a message whenever you have time."
"Woof, woof!"
Everyone said goodbye to Goldie.
Goldie wagged its tail and nuzzled each member.
"See you again, Goldie. Stay healthy."
"Woof!"
We left the beautiful village of Sagadi with my parents, Goldie, and Wilhelm seeing us off.
We returned to Tallinn, unpacked at our new accommodation, and now began preparing for the filming of
"This is the restaurant we will be using for three days."
There is a beautiful area in Tallinn, Estonia, that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It is the Tallinn Old Town, which has preserved its original medieval appearance.
From the quaint streets to the Gothic-style buildings that are the only ones found in Northern Europe.
Our
The members couldn't help but exclaim in admiration as they looked at the restaurant and the surrounding streets that still retained the feel of an old brick castle.
"Wow.........."
"It feels like we've entered a movie."
"It feels like knights in armor will appear on the streets at any moment!"
Sigma Entertainment's location scouting was excellent.
Now all that was left was for us to faithfully carry out our missions as we had practiced under the guidance of chefs in Korea.
"Okay, first, Siyoon, wear this."
"Wow, as expected! This kind of content is made for this taste!"
The real power holder of
Kang Siyoon proudly wore a sky blue armband and swaggered towards us.
"Okay, from today on, my word is law in this restaurant. Do you all understand?"
"Yeess."
"Yes~."
"Oh my, why are you all so weak in your words! Answer loudly!"
"Yes!"
Kang Si-yoon was absorbed in the beautiful taste of power as soon as he received the armband.
Song Hyung-bin immediately whispered to me.
"The person who should not be given power the most has power."
"We didn't expect this. There's nothing we can do."
"It would have been easier if you were good at cooking."
"Aren't you expecting too much from me?"
Seleste Restaurant will open for business tomorrow.
That means we have to prepare the ingredients we brought from Korea in advance today.
We have to work together to make the main menu items.
Even though we learned how to cook before the world tour, it was obvious that difficult dishes were impossible.
That's why the dishes decided in the pre-meeting were easy to make while representing Korea.
Kimchi stew. Kimbap, bibimbap. And egg rolls.
Even we, who have no talent for cooking, can try this.
Chef Kang Si-yoon looked at us with determined eyes while tightly wrapping his apron around us.
"Okay, we'll start preparing the ingredients right away!"
