City of Backstreet Nymphs - Chapter 34



34 – 034 – To whom the golden apples # 1

034 – To whom the golden apples # 1

When I lived in a burrow for about 5 years.

I learned a lot in many ways.

It was the point that if someone did a favor, it’s good to repay it.

That way, you’ll be able to lend a helping hand again when you need it.

Also, if I gave them grace in advance, they would repay me in unexpected places.

People live by helping each other.

“Wouldn’t it be nice to give this apple as a gift to those who have been helped?”

It was an apple that tasted terrible, but was effective.

Then everyone would want to have it.

How about selling it—I felt like it, but since it was a glorious first harvest and it didn’t last long, I decided to just give it to someone.

The question was who to give it to.

“Oinoi, are you really not going to eat? You raised it, so you should try it too.”

“The owner of the house… ! Although this Oinoi already knew that the owner of the house was a nymph-friendly person… , Do not hold out that nymph-repellent fruit to this oinoi… !”

Ohinoi was astonished like a golden retriever who smelled durian.

And I was embarrassed too.

“No, sometimes golden apples are said to be nymph-friendly. Why did you change your words now? Didn’t you grow apples diligently because you wanted to taste them too?”

It certainly didn’t taste bad.

Still, the words have changed like this.

“Cooking makes it nymph-friendly… ! However, I didn’t learn how to cook these cucumbers from Master, so I can’t eat cucumbers… !”

“I see.”

“I thought I could grow delicious apples without cooking with this cucumber, but… After all, it was a futile challenge… ! That’s why I won’t eat golden apples… !”

I did.

How about Kungkong and Angangi?

When I handed the fruit to them, it made the hair on its body stand on end.

– Kleureung… !!!!

I hate you very much.

I still don’t know what the squirrel said, but it was clear that he was swearing.

Angangi also shook her head from side to side without pressing the button on the washing machine.

“Okay, I won’t disturb you so keep doing the laundry.”

As I said that, I thought of the adults in the neighborhood.

The elders in the neighborhood give me something to eat every morning. Shall I give you one?

No, there are many adults, but only one fruit.

“I have a lot of mouths, so offering this one fruit is a bit ambiguous.”

It was then.

Oinoi raised his hand.

“Then I will give it to Kore Yerim… ! Since ancient times, Kore like Atalante have been very fond of golden apples…. If you receive it, you will surely feel great gratitude to the owner of the house… !”

Seo Yerim?

Certainly, it seemed like it would be good in many ways to give this golden apple to Seo Ye-rim.

Seo Ye-rim helped me in many ways to find this house.

Other than that….

Was there anything that helped me?

Rather, she tried to catch me because she splashed some queen bee juice on her shoes.

A picky b*tch.

Kankanyerim.

Kanyerim.

When I was thinking about that, I heard a vibrating sound.

Looking at my phone, I saw a call from Seo Ye-rim.

“It looks like a real ghost. Is this an S-class intuition?”

It was clear that I contacted him thinking that I was cursing myself inside.

「Kan Yerim: No problem, right?」

「Me: None. Rather, I was happy because I grew a golden apple.”

「Kan Yerim: Really? Show me the picture!」

I was naturally a person who likes to brag about things.

Click-.

When I took a picture of a golden apple and showed it to Seo Ye-rim, the reaction was good.

「Kan Ye-rim: Wow, look at the color ㅋㅋ Does it really look like gold? Really pretty!”

The brilliant golden light had the effect of attracting people.

Even to Seo Ye-rim, a fashion model and superstar with 3 million stargram followers, this golden apple seemed to be a fascinating thing.

Shall I give Seo Ye-rim ─ When she thought that, Yoo-ri, whom she worked with today, suddenly came to her mind.

“Yuari, I bought a lot of meat. They also give away kits. Do my tests early too. I mean, it helped me in many ways.”

Above all, Yuari was a person who knew how to be grateful.

If I gave you this golden apple, she said, “Senior, thank you so much!” She might open her round eyes even wider and shed tears of emotion.

Also, wouldn’t an apology be needed more for Yua-ri, who stopped working at the field because she was stagnant at B-class than Seo Ye-rim, who is full of magical powers because she is S-class?

“I was very scared while watching the monster 「Assassin Scorpion」. As her skills increase, her confidence may also increase. Should I give you Yuari?”

At that thought, Oinoi frowned.

Then he said.

“Yuari…. She is a woman who hates nymphs… ! She had the qualities of a Kore, but like her terrifying witch Medea, fearsome… !”

Oi Noi is still consistent when it comes to her infant Li.

Is it similar to how cats and dogs shudder when they see a veterinary hospital teacher?

She said, “She has no choice but to bathe in the waters of the River Styx to wash away the dread… ! In other words, Yuari is like a minesweeper…. She is a land mine woman… !”

A land mine woman.

I felt like I had caught a glimpse of such words floating around on the Internet.

Yua-ri had a bit of a passive and sullen side before, but was she to the point where she could hear that?

“This Oi Noi thinks it would be good to present her apple to Jin-ah Korei, a prospective student… ! Because, Lee Jin-ah gave Lee Oi-noi a ride in her truck… !”

Oi Noi, she rode in the back seat of a 1-ton delivery truck.

“It is clear that no nymph has ever ridden in the back seat of a car called a truck…. This oi noi was greatly favored on behalf of her nymphs… !”

Certainly, I also had some debt to Lee Jin-ah.

It was quite unexpected that Lee Jin-ah treated my mother and her father kindly in their own way.

Also, thanks to Lee Jin-ah pretending to be her fake girlfriend, her mother and father’s torch has decreased a bit.

“Then, the number of gift givers was reduced to three. One of the three.”

Shall we climb the ladder?

When I was thinking about that, Oinoi said.

“Three women and a golden apple…. This oi-noi, something comes to mind… ! There was a story about a shepherd that Master told me in the past… !”

“A shepherd?”

“It’s a story about a shepherd who had to give a golden apple to one of the three women, who ended up causing a terrible war and dying miserably—. The owner of the house needs to be careful… !”

Are you referring to the story of the golden apple and the three goddesses?

Since I met Oinoi, I have read a lot of stories related to nymphs, so I knew about it.

“Hera, Athena, Aphrodite. Isn’t that the story of each of the three goddesses presenting gifts to the shepherd to be chosen as the owner of the apple?”

Indeed.

Come to think of it, my situation was in many ways similar to Prince Paris, who was the picker of the golden apples.

Then came a very wise opinion.

“Oinoi, do you know what the lesson of the golden apple and Paris story is?”

“This oinoi heard that the moral of this story is not to let the greed of a moment err on important choices and decisions… !”

“No, when you trade with several people at the same time, make a deal and choose the person you like the most. Yes, this is it.”

After all, people in the past were wise.

Golden Apples and Paris.

His story must have been made for me in the future.

“I will apologize, so everyone can ask me what they can do for me. I also like my hair. I can present it to the person who presents the conditions I like the most!”

“hehehe… ! This oi noi, he only feels bad forebodings… ! I don’t know about this oinoi anymore…. The owner of the house will take care of it… !”

Poof-.

Oinoi went into his room.

What a bland guy!

I made a group chat room with Yoo Ah-ri, Seo Ye-rim, and Lee Jin-ah.

「Hail-do invited Kan Ye-rim, Ari, and Iljin Lee Jin-ah.」

And I posted a picture on it.

「B: I have one golden apple left. Is there anyone in need? If you need someone, tell them why you need them. I will give it to that person.”

“Ha? What are you talking about, you bastard!”

As soon as Seo Ye-rim saw her cell phone, she got angry.

Hwaruk-.

Her assistant and friend Ahn Young-eun, who was driving, panicked because the temperature rose in an instant.

From noble mtl dot com

“Yerim-ah, it’s hot. Are you mad at me for being late from work because of traffic jams?”

“Oh, sorry. No, more than that, look at the message he sent! You said you wouldn’t give me the golden apple and hand it over like an auction… ! Aren’t you supposed to give it to me?”

“Is that so? I don’t think there’s any need to take it for granted. It’s yours, but whoever you give it to is yours.”

Ahn Young-eun, a Class C Awakener, is the secretary of her friend Seo Ye-rim, but she is a talkative person. When she asked why Seo Ye-rim had to accept her apology, she said that Seo Ye-rim was also taken aback.

“Yeah, I also saved Hail’s house!”

“Originally, it was a house you could eat without talking about cracks.”

“That’s true. How good did I treat Hail to him? How dare you hit me in the back like this without knowing that grace?”

Seo Ye-rim is upset, but her secretary, Ahn Young-eun, is having trouble adjusting the temperature because she doesn’t like hot weather.

Still, I couldn’t help but feel angry.

It was clear that he had given Hildo a favor in many ways.

A clogged car.

Ahn Young-eun took the steering wheel off her hands for a moment and said, “As expected.”

“Isn’t it your order to give Hayildo work at the Telos company? Back when Haildo was still in Class D.”

“Muh, what are you talking about? Those were chores that anyone could do.”

“Yeah, just like Yerim said, these were chores that anyone could do. But you gave Haildo everything anyone else could do. Did you think you were being kind?”

“What are you saying? No. I just thought it was a little pitiful because it seemed like it would just stagnate and be weeded out as a D-class and disappear. Still, I did my job diligently.”

“… ….”

Ahn Young-eun opened her slender eyes as she looked at Seo Ye-rim in the passenger seat.

And instead of saying anything, she moved her hand and turned on the air conditioner in her car.

It was hot in many ways.

Bang bang—Seo Ye-rim said as the car behind him honked at the soon-to-be-changed signal.

“Youngeun-ah, let’s go home, Haildo. I don’t know exactly what the golden apple is, but if it’s a mysterious crop, wouldn’t it be better for us, Telos, to get it first and study it?”

“Why do you worry about companies?”

As she said that, her seasoned secretary Ahn Young-eun bent her steering wheel.
