The Tutorial Is Too Hard - Chapter 312.1

Chapter 312.1: 312.1

Seoul (16)

Fortunately, Kim Min-hyuk was able to persuade Hochi . He didn’t dissuade or stop him from going outside . He just prevented him from taking the wrong way, saying he would bring him to a delicious restaurant he knew .

However, Kim Min-hyuk felt he had overcome one big crisis .

If Hochi had gone outside and walked down the street, gazing and searching around for different kinds of restaurants… It would have gotten crazy to the point where Kim Min-hyuk didn’t even want to imagine the situation that would take place after that .

Kim Min-hyuk took Hochi, Seregia, and Yong-yong to a nearby Korean restaurant .

He had been there quite a few times before . They had seats in individual rooms, so they wouldn’t have to encounter other customers .

They weren’t concerned about spreading rumors because of the thorough training the employees there received .

Fortunately, it was not mealtime, so they never ran into anyone else in the restaurant . However, they had no choice but to interact with the staff who guided the group to the room .

And so, they chatted a little bit .

“Isn’t that him?”

“I think you’re right . ”

“Hey, he’s the guild leader . I’ve been to the guild before . I’m sure it’s that guy . ”

“How interesting . People like that live in their own world . ”

Of course, Kim Min-hyuk had to eat to live . The others didn’t have to .

Kim Min-hyuk was also an Awakened, so he could hear the staff’s murmurs from the room’s corner . The others must have heard it, but they went into the assigned room without a care .

Kim Min-hyuk came out separately and asked the manager not to spread rumors on SNS . The manager assured him that it would not happen, but Kim Min-hyuk was dubious .

After talking to the manager, Kim Min-hyuk entered the room late, and Hochi was already ordering food .

“From here to here, please,” Hochi said, dragging his finger from the menu’s first to last page .

The puzzled waitress looked at Kim Min-hyuk instead of Hochi .

Kim Min-hyuk asked Hochi on behalf of the employee’s innermost thoughts . “…Are you planning on eating everything?”

“Of course . ”

Hochi was sure . Kim Min-hyuk was about to ask the employees to bring everything, but then he remembered some course menus on the menu .

Even if they ate all day, they couldn’t possibly finish .

Hochi said with a smile as the waitress went out, “Ha! I wanted to give it a try . ”

Kim Min-hyuk murmured inwardly, “I knew it . ”

So instead of ordering the whole menu, he just let them order to their tastes .

“Good job,” Seregia praised Hochi .

Her posture was upright .

Seregia, who enjoyed sprawling across the sofa, seemed annoyed by how she had to sit upright .

“But at this rate…”

Kim Min-hyuk thought it was a relief that nothing had gone astray . Accidents could have happened many times, just coming this far .

Fortunately, so far, everyone had been calm, not creating any major accidents, either because of their desire for delicious food or because of the excitement of coming outside .

Come to think of it, Yong-yong was exceptionally quiet .

“Uncle . ”

“Yes, Yong-yong?”

Just in time, Yong-yong called out to Hochi . Kim Min-hyuk was most worried about Yong-yong .

Children often made a fuss in restaurants .

If Yong-yong brought out the mantis, it wouldn’t end up simply as a disturbance, but something far worse .

“Can’t we have the mantis with us?” Yong-yong said, pointing to the mantis trapped in the box .

Hochi readily gave consent .

“Yes, you can . Let’s eat together . ”

‘No!’ Kim Min-hyuk wanted to shout out aloud .

Sitting side by side with a G-class monster? Kim Min-hyuk wouldn’t be able to bury it no matter how much he paid onlookers and reporters .

But before Kim Min-hyuk could even open his mouth to persuade them, Yong-yong had already taken the mantis out .

Kim Min-hyuk couldn’t bring himself to tell the child to put it back .

* * *

The food came out, and the meal was more peaceful than Kim Min-hyuk thought it would be . It was especially impressive to see the mantis eating with manners .

“You eat human food well,” Hochi commented .

“I usually eat everything nicely,” the mantis answered .

The fact that it was eating with etiquette was a big blessing . It’d be even better if humans weren’t part of its diet .

Anyway, they were all enjoying the food, and Hochi had fun eating .

Seregia and the mantis really ate well .

Whenever Yong-yong became interested in the employee serving the food, Kim Min-hyuk’s whole body froze, succumbing to a terror, but it never turned into a big problem .

Of course, Kim Min-hyuk was not able to eat properly because of his nervousness and anxiety .

He was nervously chewing on his food when the door opened again .

He thought there might be a new dish that a waitress was bringing in, but instead, an old man entered .

The old man introduced himself as the store’s owner and thrust a pen and paper at Hochi .

“I’m sorry, but may I ask for your autograph? I’ve been a fan since you were a professional gamer . ”

Hochi picked up the pen and paper and thought for a moment . He didn’t say that he wasn’t Ho-jae .

He was not Ho-jae, but his clone, but it was more troublesome to explain that he was a completely different being .

It would just make them more confused by explaining .

‘Ah, how am I supposed to sign?’

Hochi didn’t even know how to sign autographs . He grabbed the pen .

Hochi was somewhat excited .

Suddenly, someone took the pen away from Hochi, who had been thrilled and was debating how to sign it .

“What are you doing?”

It was Lee Ho-jae . He snatched the pen away, signed the page, and returned it to the owner .

“When did you come?” Hochi asked with a hoarse voice .

“Just now . This man asked me to sign . ”

Then the owner talked to Ho-jae for a while . He really felt like a true fan .

“Of course . I went there during the finals . At that time…”

When they heard that, they could tell the owner was a real fan .

The two briefly talked about the past .

The owner looked really stoked . He apologized for interrupting the meal, and left at the right time .

“What a surprise,” Kim Min-hyuk commented .

When Lee Ho-jae appeared and took away the pen, Kim Min-hyuk could feel his heart pounding once again .

He was worried that he might beat the owner up, but he had acted more rational than Kim Min-hyuk had expected .

“Why on earth did you think of this as a surprise?” Lee Ho-jae questioned as if it felt unfair .

Hochi, Seregia, and even Yong-yong looked surprised .

Yong-yong even looked a bit dazed .

Lee Ho-jae stroked Yong-yong’s head and told Kim Min-hyuk next to him . “You asked me to work, but then why are you working?”

Then he reached out and picked up a braised short ribs and disappeared again .

It was a sudden exit, just like his unexpected entrance .

It had been a short visit, but Lee Ho-jae’s appearance had made a big impact on the table .

He disappeared with a handful of braised short ribs .

Hochi and Seregia’s eyes were glued on the braised short ribs bowl .

Cheng!

The two chopsticks clashed in the air .

“You’ll yield this to me, won’t you? I haven’t tried any of it yet . ”

“No . ”

While watching the two of them swinging their chopsticks in a silly fight, Kim Min-hyuk called in an employee to order another braised short ribs .

He thought to himself, “…I can’t do this . If he leaves them alone with me, I’ll die of stress first . ”

Lee Ho-jae had told Kim Min-hyuk to ask Hochi to do whatever he wanted . But Kim Min-hyuk had no intention of doing so .

It would have been good if they had just stayed calm in the flat, but Hochi and the rest didn’t want to do that .

If they were going to behave like this, he should have never let them out . He was sure there would be trouble somewhere .

Or maybe Kim Min-hyuk himself would explode under stress .

Kim Min-hyuk decided it was better to let Ho-jae get to work .
