In the midst of various rumors surrounding the Black Flame Princess, Junhwan wasn’t interested in such things right now. What could be so important in this situation?

“Nuna, please look at this too!”

Karruk. The boy’s laughter.

Junhwan’s eyes inexplicably became moist. It had been a long time since he had seen the master’s innocent appearance like that.

Hoping the two would have a pleasant time, Junhwan left the place.

From then on, time passed quickly, especially for Minju.

Minju dragged a box larger than his body in front of Eunha. When he lifted the white cloth covering the box, a giant tank model was revealed.

“Is this also a figurine?”

“Yes, I didn’t buy this; I made it myself. If you look closely, there’s a person inside.”

“Really?”

“Isn’t it fascinating?”

As he said, a tiny figure of about 3cm could be seen through the glass window.

“And this time.”

Minju opened a drawer with a triumphant face. What he carefully pulled out with both small hands was…

“Ta-da! It’s a golden military badge!”

“……. ”

In front of her eyes was a golden military badge. The moment Eunha faced it, her gaze shook slightly.

“Quiz.”

Suddenly, Minju raised his index finger.
“Is that military badge real, or is it fake?”

Eunha blinked slowly at the suddenly presented quiz. However, it didn’t take her long to answer.

“…It’s a replica.”

“Why is that?”

“If it were real, there wouldn’t be the ‘MADE IN KOREA’ mark. Also, the date of issuance.”

Eunha scratched the surface of the identification tag.

February 1998.

“At that time, military badges were issued every three months. If a military badge was issued in January 1998, there couldn’t be one for February.”

“……. ”

Minju, who had been staring intently at Eunha, suddenly broke into a bright smile.

“That’s the correct answer. I expected Nuna to recognize it as a replica, but you know more than I thought.”

Swish. Minju, who took the military badge, turned around and began to rummage through the box.

Eunha silently stared at his small back.

‘Just now…’

Was it because of her mood? Minju’s gaze seemed to have changed for a moment─.

Bang!

“Master, the meal is ready!”

The door opened energetically. Holding a greasy spatula, Junhwan gestured for them to come.

“Ah, let’s go now.”

Getting up from her seat, Minju grinned, saying, “Nuna, come too!” and pushed her to the dining table before Eunha could say anything.

Before Eunha could say anything, Minju pushed her to the dining table and said, “Nuna, come too!” Eunha found herself seated next to her. Then, in no time, a crowd rushed to her side.

“You’re here! Hello, I am Hwaseon, who is active under the alias ‘Blue Bird.'”

“Greetings, I’m Seokgyunho. My alias is ‘Striker.’ I’ve heard a lot about the master.”

“Ah… yes.”

Eunha glanced at Minju for a moment. As usual, he had the innocent face of a young boy, tearing open a bread bag.

Perhaps it was because of her mood. As Minju stared at her with a strange look.

“Nuna, aren’t you eating?”

Sensing the gaze, Minju turned his head toward Eunha. His acorn-like eyes were innocent.

“A while ago─.”

As Eunha was about to speak, the moment her lips parted,

“Master, this person is experiencing our meal style for the first time. An explanation is needed!”

Suddenly, someone intervened between Minju and Eunha. It was one of the Legion guild members, Soohyun.

Our meal style? Only now did Eunha’s eyes glance over the food on the dining table. Instead of plates, there were metal trays.

On the trays were packaged bread, two small patties, coleslaw soaked in sauce, strawberry jam, and a pack of milk, all laid out neatly.

“Have you seen it, Legion Lord!”

Someone proudly shouted.
