Episode 16
There were more cabbage leaves than I thought. Woojin decided to use a truck to move the cabbage and separated the camping box that had been connected by an outrigger. It was to move the cabbage using the cargo compartment. He first put the cabbage in a net. Each net could hold three cabbages. He stacked the nets filled with cabbage one by one in the cargo compartment. In total, there were 333 nets in the cargo compartment. Since he exactly pulled out 1,000 cabbages, he gave the remaining one to Kan. Kan enjoyed eating the cabbage. “Is it that delicious?” “Of course. Do you want to try it, hyung?” Kan gave him a cabbage stem, so Woojin also tasted it. It had a crispy and refreshing taste, indicating that the cultivation was successful. “It tastes great.” “Isn’t it?” “I wonder how delicious it will be when we make kimchi with it.” “Kimchi?” “When we ate ramen, I gave you some as a side dish.” It was kimchi brought from Uncle’s house. Of course, Kan enjoyed eating the kimchi too. “Ah, that spicy and tangy taste?” “Yes.” “Wow… You made it with this? I can’t imagine.” “When we receive more kimchi soon, let’s have a proper meal then.” Woojin brought rice for Kan and Milk, then got on the truck.

First, he gave 60 cabbages to Uncle in Korea. Then, he drove the truck to Yoojeong’s house on schedule. She came out in front, waved her hand happily when she spotted Woojin. Woojin parked the truck and took out 10 nets of cabbage from the cargo compartment. “Were you waiting?” “Yes, is this the truck you’re driving?” “Yes.” “Oh… You connect a camping box behind this truck to go camping. That’s amazing.” Yoojeong looked around the truck full of curiosity. “Stop looking around and take the cabbage.” “Okay!” As if she were a professional, Yoojeong easily took the 10 nets into the house. “I guarantee the taste.” “Thank you. How much do I owe you? I’ll transfer the money right away.” “No need. I’m just giving it to you.” There were still many cabbages left. Woojin didn’t think of charging Yoojeong for it. However, she shook her head. “No, I feel uncomfortable if I keep receiving things for free.” “Then, can you do me a favor instead?” “A favor?” “Yes. Can you get this for me?” Woojin took out a notepad and wrote something with a pen, then handed it to her. The note had the name of an item written on it. [Aurora Seed] “Why is this?” “There’s a use for it. Can you get it?” “Yes. We have a few of them stored in our guild.” “Really?” It was good news. Items were objects that could be obtained inside the gates. Each item had its own effect, and occasionally, there were items that surpassed common sense. Hunters classified items based on their effects. However, Aurora Seeds had no classification. The reason there was no classification was simple. No one had succeeded in planting the seed and growing it. Even though alchemists and magicians had put in a lot of effort to research it, there was no significant result. Therefore, it could be considered an almost abandoned item at the moment. “Are you trying to plant this?” “Yes.” “Hey, it’s impossible. An Aurora Seed can’t grow without the blessing of a fairy.” “Yes, that’s why I’m asking for it.” It might be useless here, but I’m sure it will sprout in my sub-space. “It’s okay.” “Okay, I got it. I heard that the guild is planning to dispose of it soon anyway. It won’t be difficult to get it.” “Thank you so much!” Woojin grabbed Yoojeong’s hand tightly. “Hey! Hey!” She blushed in confusion, but Woojin was too happy to notice her expression.
