* A Korean punishment game. The loser bends with their back facing the sky while the others hit the loser on the back like a drum. It’s usually done with hands but some people add an elbow strike in the end since the loser can’t see them anyway.

Episode 63: Happy Happy Funeral

“I’ll be staying inside the workshop for a while,” said BM.

With a loosened gaze, Ha Saetbyul looked at him and giggled.

“Hihi, why…?”

“Taebaek died.”

“Euungg…?”

She asked, wondering what this was about.

“That’s all you need to know for now. Don’t look for me and let Bell know as well.”

“Uhh… umm…”

Before Ha Saetbyul could say anything, the workshop’s door came to a close. Limply swaying her dull body, Ha Saetbyul peeked through the window of the workshop so BM closed the blinds.

“Haa…”

Left alone, she scratched her hair.

The workshop of the underground labyrinth was pitch dark when the light was turned off. It was different when the area was filled with incubators and test tubes. Back then, the fluids had been generating light so it was never dark even when the lights were off and BM’s sleeping place had never been truly dark.

After making Jung Taebaek, he got rid of all the incubators and other apparatus which no longer served any purpose.

Even then, it was fine. Jung Taebaek was a child whose mere existence emitted light and it had never occurred to him that the workshop was dark.

And yet now that Jung Taebaek was no longer here.

The workshop with its light turned off, felt ever so dark.

“…”

Though he couldn’t see anything, BM could see it – the workshop decorated like a playground area still had toys although the child had disappeared.

In any case, he wasn’t my own child. He wasn’t the child of my two friends either.

Thus, BM should’ve been able to get rid of all the toys, books and lego blocks that the child was playing with, as soon as he recovered his feelings.

So why was it that he still couldn’t get rid of them?

BM reached forth and grasped the alphabet book which Jung Taebaek used to play with the most. Flipping past the first page, he found a name written with a scribble.

Jung Bongman

It was the first set of words Taebaek learned when he started learning the alphabet with Yu Yeorum.

‘I’m your father.’

‘My name is Jung Bongman.’

Those were BM’s words, facing the child who flowed out from the incubator with ambient fluids inside the boss room of an S ranked dungeon. Unable to even open his eyes, the child tilted his head and copied his words.

‘Ju Bo Man?’

Although it was but a chimera,

And the chimera was long dead,

The child, who was to him, none other than Jung Taebaek,

Wrote BM’s name, saying that it was his father’s name.

Though the child was dead, the ‘moments’ of the child thinking about him remained here as evidence. That’s why BM couldn’t discard these things.

If he were to meet the real Taebaek in the future, he had to get rid of these things for sure
