The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 172: Meal (1)

“Isn’t that Yamti?”

Yamti was quite surprised at Seo Arin’s question.

‘How did she recognize me after I changed my appearance?’

She thought that the customization would make her unrecognizable, but someone had identified her.

It seemed she hadn’t changed enough.

“It is, right? Yamti?”

“……” Yamti neither confirmed nor denied, merely glancing at Ryu Min for a cue.

However, Ryu Min interjected as if there was no need to be cautious.

“Oh? You two know each other?”

“We met in the other world. At that time, she introduced herself as a real-life acquaintance of the Black Scythe….”

“Yes, Yamti knows the Black Scythe even in real life.”

“Don’t tell me, Ryu Min, you too…?”

“No, I’ve never met him. He’s quite a secretive person….”

“Then it really is Yamti?”

Finally, Yamti felt she could relax and answer.

Because her master had acknowledged it.

“Haha, yes, it’s me, Yamti.”

“I thought you looked familiar. Nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you too. Meeting Seo Arin in real life is surprising.”

“I’m more surprised that you’re a real-life acquaintance of the Black Scythe.”

Seo Arin, smiling, lowered her voice and revealed her desire.

“Um, Yamti. If it’s not too much to ask, could you give me the Black Scythe’s contact information….”

“That’s not appropriate. Moreover, it would be a huge disrespect to the Black Scythe. He doesn’t want to reveal his identity to anyone.”

“Ah….”

Yamti’s serious tone made Seo Arin feel awkward.

“Then, could you at least let me talk to him on the phone? I have something to say….”

“I’m sorry. Even though I know him in real life, I don’t have his contact information. He always calls me with a restricted number. That shows how cautious he is. He even hides his face in the CPF unit.”

“Ah….”

Seo Arin was simultaneously convinced and disappointed.

-I wanted to meet him in person just once more….

Reading her thoughts, Ryu Min shook off his worries.

‘She just wants to meet him, not find out my identity.’

He had been worried that Seo Arin might persistently ask about the Black Scythe’s identity, but there was no need for that.

‘Even if she did, there’s no way my identity would be discovered.’

In anticipation of such situations, he had told Yamti how to respond if asked about the Black Scythe in real life.

‘Thankfully, she handled it well as instructed.’

Upon reading Seo Arin’s thoughts, she wasn’t suspicious of Yamti.

She was just envious that she could communicate with the Black Scythe in real life.

“By the way, what brings you both to my house…?”

“Oh, I wanted to ask Ryu Min about something personal.”

“Really? Well, come on in then. While you’re here, join us for a meal.”

“A meal?”

“You haven’t had dinner yet, right?”

“Well, no…”

“Then come on in.”

With a grin, Ryu Min opened the front door and looked at his younger brother.

“Is it okay if we have a few more guests?”

“Huh? Oh, sure…”

Ryu Won was pleased to have the chance to serve dinner to Seo Arin, whom he liked, but he also felt a bit pressured.

Bubble, bubble—

When the kimchi stew was boiling vigorously, Ryu Won placed it in the center of the table.

“There’s not much prepared, but please help yourselves.”

“Not much? This is a feast!”

As Seo Arin said, there were plenty of side dishes on the table.

Rolled omelette, stir-fried sausage and vegetables, japchae, stir-fried fish cake, and kimchi stew.

It was a lot to prepare alone, but Ryu Won had done it.

It had taken him an hour and a half to prepare the meal, but Ryu Min had helped, otherwise, it would have taken three hours.

“Let’s eat.”

“Let’s see how it tastes.”

Slurp—

Seo Arin’s eyes sparkled as she tasted the kimchi stew.

“You said you followed a YouTube recipe?”

“Yes… is it not good?”

“Not good? It’s delicious!”

“Phew, I was worried it might not taste good.”

Ryu Won finally felt relieved at Seo Arin’s radiant smile.

“I didn’t know my brother was this good at cooking.”

“Haha, I just don’t do it often, but when I do, I can manage.”

“You should consider getting a Korean cooking certificate. Stop playing games.”

“Ugh… Okay, fine.”

Ryu Min, Ryu Won, Seo Arin, An Sang-cheol, and Yamti finished their meal in a warm atmosphere.

“Thanks for the meal, Won-ah.”

“Thank you, nuna.”

Ryu Min, who was watching Yamti and Ryu Won, asked in surprise.

“What? When did you two start speaking casually?”

“When Ryu Min went to the bathroom. Hehe.”

“There’s quite an age gap, so it felt awkward to keep being formal, hyung.”

“Are you dissing me for being older, Won-ah?”

“No way, nuna.”

As Ryu Won chuckled and went to do the dishes, Yamti stood up as well.

“Are you going to do the dishes? Let me help.”

“I’ll help too.”

When Seo Arin tried to stand up, Ryu Min stopped her.

“Let them handle the cleanup. We have something to discuss, right?”

“Oh, right.”
