“Today is the day. We have planned for this, are you ready?”
Choi Jong Bom nodded frightfully.
“We need to be perfectly prepared. Two, no three times the amount will be necessary.”
“How about only once...”
“That will create an absolute mess of the plan.”
Chung Il Hoon eyes dimmed. He had trouble believing Choi Jong Bom’s words who had payed for the other brothers before.
“It certainly would, wouldn’t it?”
“If necessary I will lead.”
Choi Jong Bom could feel his heart being smashed. Next to him however, was Chung Il Hoon smiling brightly.
“Brother, you’re not planning to do that are you?”
“That’s right. Unless we carry it out, we will never succeed.”
Nevertheless, Chung Il Hoon did not change his countenance.
“You know the emphasis of today’s importance.”
“I do.”
He nodded his head.
It was Lee Hyun’s birthday today.
Since he had never once had a birthday party ever since the day he was born, they wanted to give their brother the best birthday party ever!
‘Isn’t it such a moving sight?’
Both of them trembled. Without a doubt they would share a meaningful experience.
They did not mind that they were going to use some of their income.
They were going to get to meet with female college students!
It was everything they could ever hope for in their dreams.
It was also a good opportunity since Ahn Hyundo was on a business trip.
Chung Il Hoon said again.
“Everyone do your best. If all goes well then it should succeed. How many years do you think that we have left of our lives?”
“Maybe about 50 years or so?”
“Yeah, during that time you have to eat meals by yourself and sleep alone when you’re tired...So keep in mind that depending on how things work out today, you may either live alone for 50 years or with a harmonious family.”
The expressions on Choi Jong Bom, Ma Sang Bom, and Roi Lee’s faces changed.
Chung Il Hoon was able to give them some courage.
‘The plan is incredible. It was able to make those kids willing to help out!’
They always went to ask for help.
Ever since they started Royal Road, they would always ask Pale for help.
Since they knew it was Lee Hyun’s birthday, they promised to come.
‘The girls were difficult to get.’
Lynn, known as Hwaryeong promised to come have lunch.
Kim In Young; known as Irene, Yeon Hee Park; known as Romuna, and Yoon Soo Park; known as Surka, would all come in the evening because of family reasons.
‘This will be an enjoyable birthday.’
Chung Il Hoon gave a satisfying laugh.
***
Lee Hyun visited the dojo early today to train.
But without knowing what his brothers were planning, they brought him somewhere else.
“Let’s go!”
Dojo Instructor! In addition they were joined by a massive number of 70 practitioners with hardened faces, eyes, and overflowing courage.
“Brothers where are we going?”
Lee Hyun asked in a low voice.
Roi Lee replied in a grim voice.
“Going to the amusement park.”
“What are we going for? Are you going to fight?”
“We’re going to go on rides and play games. Even we have rest day sometimes, don’t you think? Go along with it.”
“Yes.”
Lee Hyun shook his head.
Even if they were going to the amusement park, the facial expressions of the people going did not fit with it. A heavy atmosphere was made as they passed by.
‘Do not fail.’
‘Happy birthday, birthday.’
It was too heavy of a responsibility to remain calm. They were carefully dressed in black suits, feeling vaguely uncomfortable and awkward.
The group rode on the subway. The dojo owned a vehicle for transportation, but they deliberately decided to use the subway.
‘People going to amusement parks use public transportation.’
None of the practitioners or instructors have been to an amusement park since they were kids. Consulting the internet, there was going to be a lot of traffic and other transportation would be recommended. With that in mind, they decided to board the subway.
“Hey, today are we going to your house to play some games?”
“Last night I was dancing at the club with a guy...and I held hands with him!”
There was a deep silence in the subway as the cars were filled with broad sturdy shouldered men in black suits.
“...”
The students from before and the all the men stopped talking. When there were many passengers on the subway there was bound to be a fierce battle over the seats. The struggle for more comfortable seats!
But some people stood quietly in place. Everyone didn’t know what was happening.
“Keuheum, it feels more comfortable to stand.”
“Yea, it’s better to exercise...”
40 to 50 men stood in place. Even the elderly seated nearby were getting worried.
“Huh? Why are they standing?”
“Yeah.”
Roi Lee and Ma Sang Bom did not sit down in any of the seats. Being accustomed to comfort made the body increasingly weak. It was necessary to work the body out everywhere. Therefore, it was normal for them to stand around in public transportation. The instructors and the practitioners stood alongside the ordinary people.
‘Are these guys mafia? The look in their eyes...’
‘It looks like their muscles are going to tear through their suits.’
‘I think they’re going to do something illegal.’
‘The police. I think it would be a good idea to call the police...’
When they arrived at a station, the subway doors opened.
“Huh, there’s empty seats?”
“That’s not very common. Maybe we’re lucky this time.”
The new passengers were delighted to see the empty seats, but then they saw the practitioners.
“....”
The passengers stood around quietly. They would not dare to sit down looking at the hard faces of the instructors and practitioners.
‘Why does it feel so bad to take a seat?’
‘I would rather sit down. Then I can be comfortable.’
More passengers were forced to be worried. However, the practitioners could not afford to care.
They needed to entertain Lee Hyun somehow!
They did wonder about the people standing for a bit, but they didn’t care so that was overlooked.
‘It must be some kind of fad to stand around in subways huh?’
‘Come to think of it, it’s good for their health.’
Nobody sat down in the subway until the group had reached their destination.
“Lee Hyun, over here!”
“This way!”
In front of the main entrance of the amusement park.
Hayan, Oh Dongman, Shin Hye Min, Lynn, and Choi Ji Hoon were waiting together.
“Hayan, what are you doing here?”
Lee Hyun asked weirdly. He noticed that there was something strange that he wasn't informed of.
Other than the abnormal behavior of the practitioners, Oh Dongman, and Jae Lynn, he did not expect to see Choi Ji Hoon.
Hayan opened her mouth and smiled.
“Oppa, It’s your birthday today!”
“Birthday?”
Lee Hyun began to calculate the date. It was indeed his birthday. Since he never celebrated his birthday, he had forgotten.
“Isn’t that why we’re here for your birthday?”
“Oppa has never gone to an amusement park before so...”
“I mean, amusement parks are exclusive to the wealthy...”
Jae Lynn, Oh Dongman, and Shin Hye Min were puzzled at Lee Hyun’s words.
‘When did amusement parks become reserved for the upper class?’
The instructors and the practitioners took it quite literally.
“In fact, you don't go to an amusement park unless you make a modest amount of money. It’s a big decision about whether or not to go.”
“A lone martial artist in an amusement park...”
“Isn’t it more than 5000 won a ride?”
The instructors spend a considerable amount of their money. For room and board in the dojo, they don’t make much money to spend. Therefore it was difficult for them to spend more than 10,000 to 20,000 won for something.
Lee Hyun sat down, since whenever he spent money on something, even going on rides, his heart broke a little.
“Keuheum! I prefer just relaxing at home.”
Hayan grabbed Lee Hyun’s arm and led him inside.
“I already have a free pass. This way you can play games and go on rides for free.”
Hayan already knew what to do with Lee Hyun. Since he disliked wasting time and money, with this he would not have an excuse not to go. The others followed after Lee Hyun in an instant.
Shin Hye Min asked them.
“What do you want to ride first?”
Jae Lynn didn’t waste any time.
“The Viking? Or the roller coasters?”
Roller coasters were high speed mechanisms that move along the rails in the air. It was the most popular rides.
Shin Hye Min was mentally tired from constantly being busy with the daily broadcast and secretly wanted to taste the thrill of the ride.
“Let’s go on the roller coaster first right?”
Ride the roller coaster first!
