Farming Druid - Chapter 106
Only Noblemtl
106. Are you eating?
I was a little regretful.
I felt like I was just curious about the content.
Phew―.
The tree sighed as it looked out towards the sea.
The island nation reportedly decided to release the nuclear wastewater, citing safety concerns.
‘If it’s so safe, why do they swim in that water, drink it, and cook food in it? The fish are floating in the water like that, and the lives of fishermen, no, humans are threatened, and yet they say it’s safe? Should I give them pine nuts? Oh my – I think I understand why Grandma is frustrated… ‘
The tree grumbled as it gathered its outer garments.
As I came out of the room, I absentmindedly looked towards the sea.
Even if the ‘seaweed’ that my grandmother placed in the sea automatically purified the seawater, it was only temporary.
‘Geo, is there any way to contact Grandma?’
[Currently, none.]
‘Okay, thanks for letting me know.’
After the tree locked the gate.
Haneum tried to get into the passenger seat of the car that had started.
Saimdang, who was in the backseat, was the first to exclaim in admiration at the tree’s attire.
“Wow—hyung—. Did you buy clothes this time?”
“Huh? This? My grandmother picked this out for me, and it’s pretty comfortable.”
“Really―, the clothes suit you well. Is it because you have a long neck? It really suits you well.”
Saimdang was surprised when she saw the clothes the tree was wearing.
‘It’s true that if the foundation is good, even cheap clothes can become luxury items… ‘
Bora was also looking at the tree with shining eyes.
‘Sir. That’s really cool… … .’
“Tree―they were just mesmerized by your appearance.”
“You said you would start the car, so why don’t you start it?”
“I put it down. Don’t you know it’s silent?”
“Wow— Do you know the butcher shop in town?”
“No—you guide me.”
“Just go straight to town―.”
“Okay. Let’s go. Are you guys okay with the beef?”
Saimdang and Bora nodded their heads vigorously.
“Teacher Joo, go go go!”
At Saimdang’s words, Han-eum smiled faintly and drove off.
Vroom—
* * *
Haneum and the children were surprised to see the meat picked up by the tree.
“Brother—we can’t eat all that.”
“Huh? Isn’t that something you guys are going to eat?”
The tree spoke with a serious expression.
The children looked at Haneum with surprised eyes.
“After he got better, he seemed to have a huge appetite. Well, just leave him alone – they say if you eat well, sleep well, and poop well, you’ll be healthy.”
“No matter what… … if we empty half of this showcase, the money… … .”
“It’s okay. It’s okay. You don’t have to worry.”
Haneum said that, but honestly, she was a little worried.
I started to wonder if my card limit was too high.
Let’s go to the tree to tell Haneum to stop talking.
“I’ll pay, so just eat it.”
At one word from the tree, Haneum chuckled.
“Instead, sell me some pearls and gold.”
Haneum’s eyes widened at the tree’s words.
“gold?”
“Uh-uh. My friend said that deep-sea creatures gave it to me. They say there are a lot of them on the bottom of the ocean. They live in the deep sea so they can’t come up, so I guess they asked the kids to give it to them.”
“Is it true that there are a lot of gold and silver treasures at the bottom of the sea?”
“Well, that’s what they say… … I’ll go home and show you first.”
“Wow―.”
Han-eum let out a low exclamation.
“Okay, we’ve chosen everything. Let’s go and grill and eat.”
The tree placed the basket on the counter.
The boss looked at the two people with surprised eyes.
“Uh—are you calculating all of this?”
“Yes. And I’m going to grill and eat at the place where my high school friends are. Since I bought this much, is there any service where you can grill it for me?”
“… Okay, I should do it. You bought me almost 3/4 of the showcase… Hahahaha―.”
The corners of the president’s mouth danced.
“It’s 7,238,000 won in total. Including the cost of table d’hôte. Four cold noodles, four soybean paste stews, plain rice, and anything you want to eat on the sizzling menu will be provided for free.”
The tree nodded at the president’s words and held out the card.
“Would you like me to pay in installments?”
“No―. It’s a check card.”
“Yes? Ah― yes.”
After the tree scratched the card coolly.
Come to our seats with the meat.
The children’s eyes just blinked like owls.
Then the first one to come to his senses was Bora.
“Sir. You’re not going to eat all of this, are you?”
“Is that right?”
“You didn’t normally eat like this, did you? It seemed like you ate less… … .”
“Why? It’s weird because I eat a lot.”
Bora almost nodded at the tree’s question, but then shook her head.
“Well― there’s a saying that if you eat well and enjoy it, it’s 0 calories, so it’s better to eat well than to just munch away. But… … .”
“But what?”
“Sir, you know. If you eat all that meat, can I film you eating it?”
Phew-
At Bora’s words, Hong Saimdang and Haneum almost spit out the water they were drinking.
“I don’t know why you’re trying to take a picture of someone eating, but do whatever you want. Just give the original file to the old man.”
As soon as the tree’s permission was given.
Bora started taking something out of her bag.
“Wow— look at this guy?”
“omg-.”
Bora took out the phone camera stand from her bag and set it up.
He took out a new cell phone from his bag, installed it, and spoke while looking at Haneum and Saimdang.
“Teacher Joo, please sit next to Mr. Namoo. Im-dang, you come this way.”
The butcher shop owner, who saw Bora setting up the camera, approached her and said.
“If you want to film, there’s a room over there. I can move you there.”
“It’s okay… … .”
“Yes! Please move it.”
Before the tree could even say it was okay.
Haneum and Bora looked at the president and spoke at the same time.
Then the manager rubbed his hands and guided them into the room.
There were two large tables attached to one room.
The boss immediately brought in charcoal, and the staff began to lay out side dishes on the table.
Bora sets up the camera before the griddle is raised.
He opened his mouth and looked at the tree.
“Sir—Can I do a mukbang… a live broadcast?”
“La bang?”
“It’s a live broadcast. Bora is quite popular.”
“Really? What’s the genre?”
I was curious about Haneum, so I asked Saimdang.
The tree also looked at Hong Saimdang as if it was curious.
“That’s… … this guy is pretty good at FPS (First Person Shooter) games.”
“Where are you going?”
I found the tree to be truly unexpected.
Yoon Bo-ra, who loves animals, was thought to be an ordinary high school girl.
It was surprising to me that she was doing a game broadcast.
“Onion?”
“yes?”
Bora looked at Haneum with surprised eyes at her words.
“I feel like something keeps coming out no matter how much I dig. It’s not like I’m playing games like this and saying things like I’m the 5th best in the school, right?”
“Ah―. That’s… … .”
Bora nodded.
At that nod, the tree and Hong Saimdang’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Tch— I have a feeling I’m looking at someone.”
The grumbling of trees.
Hong Saimdang turned her head and looked at the tree.
“why?”
“Huh? This guy next to me was the same type as Bora. He always played soccer, volleyball, and baseball, and he always got into the top 3 in the whole school when he took a test.”
Haneum smiled faintly at the tree’s revelation.
“Do you want to talk about it in front of the kids?”
“Uh-. I have a feeling that Bora will go to medical school like you.”
Bora liked the way the two uncles talked to each other like tiki-taka.
“Okay, the camera is set up, so let’s start the communication broadcast.”
“Well—as long as it doesn’t get in the way of my eating… … .”
“I think your channel will grow quickly too.”
“Ah― I haven’t uploaded a video for a while. Hahaha―”
The tree remembered that since he became a guardian, he had been lazy about filming and had not uploaded any videos.
“I’ll grill some meat for you―.”
The staff came and placed the brass grill on the charcoal fire.
I started by putting in the meat with the strongest flavor.
“Hello everyone~ It’s Bora Bora!”
It seemed like Bora had already started broadcasting.
As the tree watched Bora doing a communication broadcast, it occurred to him that it might be a good idea to have a broadcast featuring the cats and Abel.
“Sir―. Please say hello to our friends at Gyeomdol. And the doctor too.”
└ What the heck is going on? Celebrities? Celebrities? Look, look. What the heck is going on? Who are those two people?
└ Really. You two are handsome. You’re cool. Oppas – Where do you live?
└ Huh? Is that person a Druid from Gangwon Province?
Bora, who was watching the chat window of the communication broadcast, smiled brightly and pointed to the tree with both hands.
“There are quite a few people I know here. You are the person who was previously rumored to be the ‘Druid of Gangwon Province.’ Please say hello, sir.”
“Uh- hello. Is this okay?”
“Hey—what if you greet me like that?”
Haneum makes a small heart with his thumb and index finger.
“Hello. I am Joo Han-eum, Bora’s ‘big brother’ who works at the Department of Surgery at Korea University.”
└ He was really handsome on his own. But when he’s with the person next to him… … I can’t speak. └ The person above is okay.
└ The character is really good. Joo Han-eum… … Isn’t that the person who appeared in [What in the World?]?
People recognized the sound.
Bora looked at Haneum through the chat window.
“Sir, you’re famous, aren’t you?”
“What happened just because I was on TV once?”
As Haneum spoke, Bora turned the camera to focus on the tree.
The meat that had been silently sitting on the grill had disappeared at some point.
Then put the meat back on and when the juices come out of the meat.
Flip it over again to lock in the juices.
It was a tree that picked up a little salt and brought it to its mouth.
└ You are someone who eats really beautifully. Your looks are no joke.
└ You really enjoyed it. I think I should eat some grilled beef for dinner.
└ I’m hungry… … Give me some beef.
Bora also watched the tree eating for a moment, lost in thought.
The way the chopsticks were held between long fingers looked so elegant.
“Bora? Come on, come to your senses and eat some meat. If you don’t eat it quickly, it’ll disappear quickly.”
At Haneum’s words, the camera was turned to where the meat was piled up.
Then people’s reactions rose so quickly that the chat window could not be read.
“Sir—can you eat all of that?”
The tree nodded at Bora’s words.
He just silently repeated the action of grilling meat and putting it in his mouth.
“The audio will be empty like this… … .”
At Bora’s words, a mechanical voice was heard in the chat window.
[Steel Whale 10,000 won.
“If you eat all that meat, I’ll give you 100,000 won.”
]
At the machine sound, Namu and Haneum looked at each other, smiled, and spoke to the camera.
“My friend can’t eat much, so you’re saying that I should take out my friend’s portion and Bora’s and Bora’s and eat everything that’s left, right?”
[Steel Whale 1,000 won.
“Okay, let’s start now. Call?”
]
As the mechanical sound ended, the tree looked at Bora and opened its mouth.
“It’s your broadcast, but there’s a mission?”
“It’s okay. I have a feeling you’ll be able to eat it all.”
“Is the mission fee paid in advance?”
“Yes. I’ll put down the mission fee in advance, and if I succeed, I can get it.”
“The time limit is while we’re eating dinner. Okay. Let’s eat. Instead. There might not be any conversation, or there might be casual conversation.”
I read the chat window that Bora had written on the tree’s horse.
“People say it’s okay.”
“Really? Then let’s eat since we’re hungry.”
“Are you okay? Should I prepare some digestive medicine?”
“No― It’s okay. When I ate while my grandmother was watching me, it came to 1.2 million won… … .”
“What? You came here with your grandmother?”
“Yeah. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so let’s come together and eat together and go to a cafe for dessert… … .”
“Are you eating?”
