172. Dodaki’s Striped Suit

【Tea Time for TDA Victims】

Cheon Do-woon looked at the title he had written and said.

“If I upload only one, it might get buried. Should I upload a few more that will grab people’s attention?”

“How many more?”

“Yeah. Since Dodak is becoming famous….”

Cheon Do-woon took out a tong from his fanny pack.

Dodak, who had been asleep due to the juice circulation massage, opened his eyes as his body shook.

“I was thinking about uploading a photo of Dodak. What do you think?”

“That’s okay. There’s also a new sprout growing on the back. I think it would be better if I took a picture of that because it would be more unique.”

At Nam Gi-seok’s words, he turned around and looked at his back.

It was a plump and voluptuous figure. It was a delightful figure, but the new shoots growing on its back were still too small.

“I think it’s a bit small to attract attention.”

Unless you take a close-up shot of just the back, you’d think it was just a bunch of leaves stuck to it.

Cheon Do-woon pressed the new shoot with his finger.

As if in response, the roots of Dodak’s feet stretched out. It trembled in that state.

When I took my hand off, the shaking stopped. When I pressed down, it stretched out and shook again.

Every time he pressed the sprout, the roots of Dodak’s feet reacted as if they were buttons.

-Phew, phew…!

Dodaki roared. It was a roar telling him not to play with his new sprout.

“Sorry. Did it tickle you?”

Cheon Do-woon looked at it and put the spoon on the table.

“I think it would be better to take a picture of her wearing clothes rather than a new one. I think it would stand out more.”

“Oh, then I’ll go get some clothes.”

Nam Gi-seok went to the closet and took Dodak’s coat.

It was a red, vintage coat that had just been washed.

“Yeah. This one has strong colors so it’ll take good pictures….”

Cheon Do-woon’s words were cut off midway. He spread out his coat and his face became delicate.

“I can’t wear it like this. If I wear this, the new growth on my back will be pressed down.”

I couldn’t dress her because I thought she would tremble every time I pressed the button.

“Even custom-made clothes need to be altered?”

I’ll have to ask them to drill a hole in my back so that the new shoots don’t get crushed.

Cheon Do-woon looked at the clothes and then saw the garden.

In the garden, five plump roots were spread out on the ground.

-Huh… .

-Ouch, oh yeah… .

Three wild mandragora roots and two healthy roots.

They were rolling around on the floor, enjoying the night breeze.

The garden plants were no longer confined to the greenhouse.

Now that the dry roots are healthy, there is no reason to keep them in the greenhouse.

Cheon Do-woon looked at the roots and the weeds in the garden alternately.

“Sir, are you planning to put Dodak’s coat on the garden kids?”

“That’s not it.”

Cheon Do-woon shook his head.

“This is Dodak’s favorite coat. If you put it on another root without permission, Dodak will be upset.”

Dodaki is a king. As such, he will not roar at the young roots to give up their coats.

But it was obvious that if he was left alone, he would grumble sullenly.

I couldn’t make Dodak like that.

“Then why did you see the garden kids?”

“I compared sizes. I have some custom-made clothes for Dodak. I was thinking about taking five of those new clothes and putting them on those guys.”

The roots of the garden plants were often buried in the ground.

So, you wouldn’t wear clothes like Dodak all the time, but you could definitely put them on for a quick photo shoot.

“I’m going to take a group photo of the six roots, including Dodak. If I dress them up, no one will think they’re mandrakes.”

“That sounds good. It might be fun.”

Yoo Beom smiled as if he had discovered a new game. His face looked like he was already anticipating the Internet’s reaction.

The other party members nodded as if they were interested.

“That would definitely be more responsive than the new one.”

“Okay. Then let’s go get the clothes tomorrow when the sun rises. The clothes should be finished by now.”

The conclusion has been reached. While I’m at it, I’d better get Dodak’s coat repaired too.

The Coconut Family looked at each other and laughed.

The noisy barbecue party passed without a hitch.

* * *

As the sun rose, Cheon Do-woon pulled down his black baseball cap.

Now, a hat has become a must-have item when exiting the gate.

Previously, no one outside the industry recognized him, but now his face is known to the entire nation thanks to the Gold City incident.

‘After taking the pictures, let’s go to the dormant volcano.’

Let’s go to the place where the World Tree was seen, and also to the place where Joseph’s mandragora was released.

There was a lot to do. It was fun because there was a lot.

I liked the idea of ​​being able to live my life freely and decide what to do in this way.

“We’ll go too.”

The siblings jumped from the rib dome. With the blast spell gone, they enjoyed their outing to the fullest.

“Isn’t Kim Na-ri going to go?”

“I went to play tag with the chimeras earlier.”

“Really? Then this is the number of people going.”

Cheon Do-un broke the return stone and opened the gate.

The connected location was in front of a clothing store. As I opened the door and went in, the owner approached me.

“Welcome… Huh!”

The owner recognized Cheon Do-woon right away. He couldn’t see his face because his hat was pulled down, but he couldn’t help but know him.

-Ouch, oh yeah!

It was thanks to the dodak sticking its face out of his fanny pack.

“Oh, you came!”

“Are we a little late? How’s the clothing production going?”

“The clothes of the group have already been taken by the association. However, I am still keeping Dodak’s clothes.”

The owner came out with a large box.

“I think it would be better to try it on myself since the chimera’s body shape is different.”

The tone was calm, but the owner’s breath was strong.

Dodak, a creature that has awakened the spirit of craftsmanship after a long time.

I can finally wear the clothes I made step by step.

When I opened the box, clothes came out neatly packed.

“I put my heart and soul into making them. Among these, there are three pieces that I think would really suit you. May I recommend them to you?”

“okay.”

When permission was granted, he took out another box from under the table.

What came out of there were three stuffed animals.

It was a stuffed animal in the shape of a life-size doll.

“You already dressed her?”

“Yes. I have set aside the clothes I recommend. They are my own.”

The owner placed the stuffed animals on the table.

-Huh?

Dodak’s eyes widened when he saw the stuffed animal. Something that looked exactly like him was standing in front of him.

What is that? Is it the same species? No, it is not.

Dodak, who was sharing Cheon Do-un’s vision, realized that what was in front of him was not a living being.

-Ouch, oh yeah!

It’s a cotton ball! roared Dodak. It looked like himself, but it was just a cotton ball.

-Whew!

Dodaki looked up at the sky and pointed at the stuffed animals with the roots of his arms.

It was a report that someone had discovered something that looked exactly like them.

“Yeah. They look the same. Do you like it?”

-Whew!

“I have to judge the clothes that the stuffed animal is wearing… How should I put this? If you have a pen and notebook, please give them to me.”

The owner brought a pen and a notebook. Cheon Do-woon started drawing there.

“Okay. Look at this.”

The first thing I drew was a picture of three stuffed animals, with Dodak standing in front of them.

As we turned the next page, we saw Dodaki looking at the dolls with sharp eyes.

As I turned the last page, a picture of Dodakki choosing an outfit appeared.

Even the picture of the clothes being worn by Dodak was perfect.

Cheon Do-woon’s kindergarten-level drawings were properly conveyed to Dodak.

-Whew, Whew!

Dodaki’s eyes shook. Dodaki looked back and forth between the picture and the stuffed animal.

Is that so? Am I the one judging them?

Dodaki nodded. The look in his eyes had changed to something unusual.

The cold gaze of a ruler. Dodak’s monarch mode has been switched on.

‘It’s cold.’

The owner swallowed dry saliva at Dodak’s gaze.

My palms started to sweat when I thought of people evaluating the clothes I made with those eyes.

“Okay. Then shall we begin?”

Cheon Do-woon took out the bottle of medicine he had brought. When he dropped a couple of drops of medicine on Dodak, the owner’s tension increased.

“What is that?”

“A medicine that interprets Dodak’s words.”

“Sat, interpretation…!”

The owner’s face turned into a surprised expression. Sweat began to drip from his forehead due to nervousness.

“Okay. Candidate number 1… let’s look at this first.”

Cheon Do-woon brought a stuffed animal wearing blue overalls in front of him.

Dodaki’s eyes sparkled. He looked up and down the overalls the stuffed animal was wearing.

The owner’s heart began to pound at the sight of those sharp eyes.

‘Ah, those sharp eyes are looking at my clothes…!’

The king’s heavy feet moved.

Dodaki walked around the Melbangbaji.

The steps suddenly stopped behind the stuffed animal.

The cane he was holding at the base of his arm tapped the back of his trousers.

-Whew!

“There is a thread”

A golden phrase floated above Dodak.

“Poem, thread…! No way! How thoroughly did I inspect… Hehe!”

The owner took a deep breath when he saw the part where Dodak had hit with his cane.

There was definitely a thread sticking out there.

Although it was a thread less than a millimeter thick, it could not escape the eyes of Dodak, who shared Cheon Do-woon’s eyesight.

“This… This is something that can’t be helped since it’s manual work. This is something that requires a magnifying glass to look at.”

The owner desperately defended his work.

He looked behind Cheon Do-woon to see his siblings asking for help.

“Look! Do you see the thread?”

“I can see it.”

The answer popped out immediately. The person I asked was bad. The opponent was a bird-type monster specialized in eyesight.

In terms of eyesight, the siblings were better than Cheon Do-woon.

The owner’s eyes wavered at the mention of seeing thread.

“Can you… can you see it?”

“Yeah. I see it. There’s a thread sticking out on the right side. The end of the thread is split into three. That’s enough to be a concern.”

Yoo Beom said. Yoo Ji Ah, who was next to him, nodded. The owner’s eyebrows trembled at that.

He took out his magnifying glass and looked closely at the thread.

‘Oh, really! It bent to the right and split into three ends!’

I didn’t see the thread that was visible even on that street.

“ah….”

Is it time to retire? The owner’s eyes became moist.

Still, he tried to maintain his composure with the spirit of a craftsman.

Even craftsmen make mistakes sometimes. I couldn’t give up when there were still two garments left to be judged.

Meanwhile, Cheon Do-woon looked back and forth between Dodak and Melbangbaji.

“I think it suits you. Don’t you like it?”

-Ouch, oh yeah!

“This is immature!”

A second shock wave hit the owner who was regaining consciousness. His knees trembled as if they would give way at any moment.

Immature. A word I have never heard since I was called a craftsman.

The melon pants that I had put my heart and soul into making were eliminated like that.

“Okay. This isn’t it. Then how about these clothes?”

Cheon Do-woon placed the second stuffed animal in front of Dodak.

This time, it was a warm pajama-like outfit. The two large buttons on the front were the highlight.

It’s made of ultra-fine fibers, so it’s super soft.

Cheon Do-woon tilted his head at the pajama-like clothes.

‘I feel like I’ve seen this somewhere… Ah. The teddy bear pajamas that Manager Kim wore.’

It looked like one of those pajamas with a teddy bear hood. Dodak glanced at the pajama-like clothes with the hood.

Dodaki picked up a stick and pushed the stuffed animal with it.

The stuffed animal, pushed by the cane, fell backwards helplessly and rolled across the table.

This time, there was not even a single lap around the doll.

-Okay, okay.

“Not dignified”

Any clothes that weren’t formal were immediately eliminated.

“Hey, it was an ambitious project….”

The owner’s wrinkled eyes became slightly moist when he saw that.

With this the second outfit was also eliminated.

Now there was only one recommendation left. The owner’s heart began to tremble with anxiety.

‘Those clothes were really carefully made… If even the last one is eliminated… I’ll retire.’

What kind of craftsman is he if he can’t find even a single thread?

The owner thought with a haggard face.

“The judging is stricter than I thought. The last candidate is… What kind of clothes does this have?”

The overall atmosphere is suit-like.

The color was white. The top and bottom were both white.

The white cloth had black vertical stripes.

That is, a white suit with vertical stripes.

The braces to keep your pants from falling down are a bonus.

The blue scarf was the focal point of the empty pastoral setting.

Dodaki’s evaluation has begun.

-Huh…?

“It’s so unusual”

Dodaki walked around the stuffed animal. He even tapped its clothes with his cane.

The owner was nervous as the examination time was longer than usual. He could hear his heart pounding in his ears.

-Ouch, oh yeah!

“This feels majestic!”

The verdict has been reached.

Dodaki looked at Cheon Do-un. He pointed to the white, vertically striped suit with his cane.

-Whew!

“This is serious!”

“Really? Do you like that?”

-Whew!

“Good!”

Dodaki started jumping around in place. It was like he was urging me to put it on.
