I’m late!
Sejun arrived at the rooftop.
“Iona, cast an invisibility spell on yourself and the others.”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Okay. Power of magic…”
To avoid drawing attention to the group, he had Iona conceal them.
Then, hurrying down from the rooftop and arriving at the wedding hall,
“Here comes the groom!”
“First, I need to give a gift…”
Sejun, who was approaching the groom’s side gift table, halted for a moment.
Ah, right! I don’t have any cash.
Having only brought Tower Coins, Sejun hesitated briefly, then put ten 100 Tower Coin coins into each of 18 envelopes.
There were eighteen people in Sejun’s group. He did it to receive eighteen meal tickets.
After handing over the gift envelopes,
“Thank you.”
Hehehe. It’s been a while since I’ve had a buffet.
Excited by the thought of going to the buffet later, Sejun, holding the eighteen meal tickets, was making his way inside the hall when,
“Well, well. Isn’t this Park Sejun, who got fired for unauthorized absences?”
A man who had been watching Sejun for a while called out to him in an arrogant voice.
“Huh?”
Who is that?
Sejun turned around at the voice calling his name.
Upon seeing the man who had called him,
“……”
His expression hardened as unpleasant memories surfaced, then returned to normal.
The man who had called Sejun was Lee Ha-san.
The son of the president at the company where Sejun used to work, he had parachuted into a managerial position. He often took advantage of Sejun and Kyung-chul, who were the same age and easy targets.
Heh. But since I’m a cool guy, I’ve forgotten all about that stuff in the past.
Thinking he was radiating coolness, Sejun greeted him,
“Oh. Good to see you, Ha-san.”
Sejun greeted Ha-san familiarly.
However,
‘What? Ha-san?!’
Hmph! Are you looking down on me outside the company?!
Ha-san scowled deeply at Sejun’s words.
‘Hehehe. Perfect. I’ll put this guy in his place right here.’
Having just been completely ignored by Kyung-chul when he greeted him earlier, Ha-san was planning to vent that humiliation by flaunting his wealth to Sejun.
Sejun’s shabby clothes and the eighteen gift envelopes filled with what appeared to be ten 100-won coins.
Ha-san was convinced that Sejun was easy prey.
He didn’t make any connection between Sejun and Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer.
That was partly because intelligence agencies had intentionally spread a fictitious image of Park Sejun, the Tower Farmer, in the media to protect Sejun’s family,
And also because,
This guy?!
Sejun’s naturally unassuming vibe completely blocked that line of thinking.
Ha-san had no idea that the ragged clothes Sejun wore were impossibly rare and extremely expensive SSS-grade or higher items that couldn’t be found on Earth,
Nor did he know that the envelopes contained Tower Coins.
In front of Sejun, who had the wealth to buy the entire Earth, Ha-san started bragging about money.
“So, you must still be in touch with Kyung-chul? But it’s your friend’s wedding, and look at what you’re wearing.”
Feigning concern, he pointed out Sejun’s outfit, subtly stretching his right foot forward to show off his luxury shoes, belt, and tie.
“Oh. I came in a hurry, so I didn’t get a chance to buy clothes.”
“Really? You must be busy these days?”
Busy, my ass. You clearly just rolled out of bed.
Ha-san mocked Sejun in his mind.
“But how did you get here?”
Setting up for his next brag.
“Me? I just walked.”
Since he couldn’t say he flew, Sejun lied and said he walked.
“Yeah? Must’ve been nice. I came in my new Lamborghini, but the traffic was terrible.”
Knowing nothing, Ha-san smirked at Sejun’s reply and casually pulled out his car keys to brag.
In truth, it was a used car, but it looked new enough that no one would know unless told.
However,
“Right. Traffic is always bad in Seoul… so you should just walk from now on, too.”
Sejun showed no interest in the car keys and replied indifferently, brushing past Ha-san toward the hall.
At that moment,
“Hey. Are you seriously going in there?”
Ha-san asked Sejun in a tone of disbelief.
“Yeah.”
“Pfft. Don’t even. You think I want to stay here? If you’re not of the right class, you can’t even get in.”
Ha-san laughed mockingly at Sejun’s answer.
This guy is really disrespecting me.
Looking at Ha-san’s mocking face, Sejun started to boil with anger. His cool composure began to fade.
Just as the enraged Sejun was about to step forward,
“Hah! Don’t you dare disrespect our great hybrid Chairman Park~nim! Our Chairman Park is the head of Sejun Company, who can go wherever he wants, meow!”
Unable to hold back, Sejun’s loyal subject, Theo, stepped up and revealed himself.
And then,
“A cat is talking!”
“It’s Vice Chairman Theo!”
“It’s Theo!”
Those who had been unable to enter the wedding hall caused an uproar as they spotted Theo.
“Puhuhut. Humans, nice to meet you, meow! I am the right hand of the great hybrid Chairman Park, the deadly dragon clawed hybrid…”
As the crowd recognized him, Theo proudly began to introduce himself.
“Sejun~nim, welcome. Please come to your prepared seat.”
“Yes.”
A female employee of the Korean Awakeners Association, disguised as a wedding guide, escorted Sejun.
As Sejun and Theo entered the hall,
“Huh…”
What? Who is he?
Ha-san stood there dumbfounded.
[Lee Ha-san]
A parachute hire at the company Park Sejun used to work for.
As the son of the president, he abused his power against his same-age coworkers Park Sejun and Oh Kyung-chul back then.
His relationship with Sejun was extremely bad.
Seeing Ha-san, agents from the Intelligence Bureau quickly wrote a report and submitted it to higher-ups.
It didn’t even take ten minutes to realize what kind of consequences this report would lead to.
Bzzz.
“Hello?”
“Hey! Lee Ha-san, what the hell have you been doing?!”
As Operation “Pest Removal” was initiated, a tax audit suddenly hit his company, and all banks started pushing for early repayment of loans, mentioning Ha-san’s name.
While Ha-san was urgently being called back to his company,
“I actually prepared a congratulatory song.”
Sejun told the guide. In the meantime, Theo had hidden himself again using Iona’s magic.
“Ah. Then would it be alright if we schedule it for the final slot?”
“Yes.”
“And what is the title of the song you’ll be performing?”
“Chamaksan.”
“Excuse me?”
Chamaksan? Is this some kind of song encouraging car purchases? (TL: 차막사 (Chamaksah), if translated, would mean ‘To buy a car without hesitation’. That is why the guide is misunderstanding it as such.)
Confused by the strange, unheard-of title, the guide quickly searched on the internet to see if it was a suitable wedding song, but of course, nothing came up.
Because it was a song made by Paespaes.
“Oh. It’s an original song, so you won’t find it by searching. My Paespaes wrote the lyrics and composed it.”
Sejun said, gently stroking his left shoulder.
“Ah. Then… do you have the sheet music? We need it for the accompaniment.”
The guide, knowing she couldn’t stop the unofficial strongest person on Earth from singing, asked in a resigned tone.
However,
“Nope. My Paespaes can’t read sheet music. But he’s a genius.”
There was no sheet music either. It was becoming more and more certain that Sejun had come to ruin Kyung-chul’s wedding.
(Bahehe.)
Paespaes was delighted by Sejun calling him a genius.
“……”
The guide was momentarily flustered by the sudden soft and pleasant laughter she heard.
-Paespaes. A golden bat the size of a fist, master of stealth. Resolved the air raid in China singlehandedly. Uses techniques such as Pip-pip Storm Fist, One-Pip Slash, and Pip-pip-hoo.
Recalling this information about Paespaes,
“This way, please.”
She guided Sejun to his seat.
And then,
-Park Sejun~nim has prepared a congratulatory song. Please place it as the final performance. The title is…
She passed a note to the MC, hoping that Sejun wouldn’t ruin the wedding.
Once Sejun sat at the seat prepared for him,
“Puhuhut.”
Theo climbed onto Sejun’s lap, and the rest of the group settled into their own seats.
Only Uren, who had no seat, sat on top of Sejun’s foot. Thanks to that, Sejun’s feet felt warm.
Lick. Lick. Lick.
Poyo diligently licked Uren to prevent his misfortune from activating.
Meanwhile,
So Tae-jun~nim is officiating the ceremony.
When Sejun made eye contact with Han Tae-jun, who was presiding as officiant, he gave him a slight nod.
Shortly after,
“Next, we’ll have the congratulatory songs.”
It was time for the wedding songs.
“The first performance is by friends of the bride, Choi Mina.”
Friends from both the bride’s and groom’s sides took turns singing.
And then,
“The next song will be performed by the bride’s younger sister and someone you all know, the singer-songwriter Choi Yura~nim. The song is titled ‘Eternal Love’. Please give her a big round of applause!”
Out of consideration for the other performers, the originally final performance, famous singer Choi Yura’s congratulatory song, began earlier than scheduled.
“You are…”
As expected of a famous singer, the moment her song began, her enchanting voice instantly captivated the audience.
Normally, anyone scheduled to sing next would be feeling nervous, but
So my sister-in-law’s younger sister is Choi Yura.
Sejun was simply fascinated by seeing a celebrity in person both morning and night.
Since he wasn’t the one singing, after all.
When the song ended,
“Wow~!”
Applause and cheers burst from the crowd.
“Next, we have a congratulatory song from the groom, Oh Kyung-chul’s friend, Park Sejun. The title is… ‘Chamaksan’. Please give him a warm round of applause!”
104.28.193.250
In the excited atmosphere following Choi Yura’s song, Sejun prepared to sing his own.
Since the crowd was mostly ordinary people, few knew who Sejun was. And thanks to the song’s bizarre title, no one looked particularly excited.
Tap, tap.
Sejun lightly tapped the microphone to check if it was working.
Sejun, you came.
Kyung-chul, congratulations.
He exchanged a glance and silent greeting with Kyung-chul.
Then,
“Paespaes, are you ready?”
He held the microphone to his left shoulder and asked Paespaes.
(Pip-pip. Yes.)
Paespaes began to sing.
(We met by chance on our path.)
And then,
“……”
The audience, instantly captivated by Paespaes’ voice, held their breath and became deeply immersed.
(Perhaps our meeting wasn’t a coincidence~)
(A love that even dimensions can’t stop~)
When the chorus of the first verse ended, the audience finally understood the meaning of the song title ‘Chamaksan’.
It was short for ‘A Love That Even Dimensions Cannot Block’.
Who came up with a ridiculous name like this for such a beautiful song?
The title doesn’t match the song at all.
It’s distracting me from the song.
At the same time, guests internally cursed the person who had given such a name to such a touching piece.
(Our love~ cannot be stopped by dimensions~)
(Even from afar, we can know and find each other~)
The song entered its climax.
[The effect imbued in the name has been activated.]
[The effect has been enhanced thanks to the original creator’s excellent performance.]
[Due to the name’s effect, your heart has become very peaceful.]
[Due to the name’s effect, your love for your beloved has grown greatly.]
[Due to the name’s effect, you can now better sense mutual attraction.]
Effects from Sejun’s naming activated.
A moment later,
(A love that even dimensions can’t stop. That’s us.)
As the song ended,
“……”
Everyone quietly basked in the lingering emotion of the song, holding hands with their loved ones.
Ah. I miss Aileen.
Sejun thought of Aileen, who wasn’t here, and gently held Theo and Cuengi’s front paws.
“Ahem. Then next up…”
Fortunately, thanks to the MC’s professionalism, the seemingly endless emotional wave concluded and the ceremony resumed.
Once the entire ceremony had finished,
“Now, we will begin photo-taking with the coworkers and friends of the bride and groom.”
As it was time for photos,
“Sejun, thank you so much for coming! Come here.”
Kyung-chul came up first and brought Sejun to stand beside him. He didn’t care at all about Sejun’s outfit.
“Alright, let’s take the photo. One, two, three.”
With the photographer’s cue, the photo was taken.
“Now, will the bride’s friends who will catch the bouquet please come forward? You all know that if you catch it, you have to get married within six months, right?”
It was time for the bouquet toss.
Kyoot kyoot kyoot. If I catch that, I have to get married within six months?!
Hearing the MC’s words, Iona quietly took her place behind the bride.
Then,
“One, two, three.”
I must be the one to catch that bouquet!
Just before Iona could catch the bouquet,
[Returning to the Black Tower.]
“Kyung-chul, I have to go. Congratulations again on your wedding.”
As his stay time ended, Sejun quickly placed a Great Growth Elixir in Kyung-chul’s pocket and vanished with his companions.
“Kyup… I almost had it…
Iona, who had arrived at the Black Tower, felt depressed about missing the bouquet that was right in front of her
“Ah. The buffet…”
Sejun also looked dejectedly at the unused meal tickets.
And then,
“Puhuhut. Cheer up, meow!”
Theo comforted the two of them.
