V55C7P2 – Ramen Day
Sponsored Content
Dozens of cameras were waiting in front of Lee Hyun’s residence .
It was like when a Korean star passed through the airport gate!
“Hey, get out of the way!”
“Please stand inside the camera zones . ”
The reporters interviewed every single guest that was invited to Lee Hyun’s house .
“I’m finally here . I came from Amsterdam . It is my first time eating Korean ramyun… I am very honored . ”
“Today is an awesome, special day . I’ll have something to brag about to my kids back home . Dad is eating ramyun cooked by Weed-nim! By the way, my kids dream of becoming someone like Weed-nim . ”
“My dream came true today . I think I’m going to enjoy a splendid dish of ramyun . ”
All the guests finished their interview and came inside just before lunch .
Oberon’s presence stood out among them all .
“Hello, I am Oberon . ”
A gold-blond young man spoke to him with a smile on his face .
He was handsome like the typical ones seen in magazines or programs .
“Are you really Oberon-nim?”
“Yes . It is a great honor to meet you, Weed-nim . ”
“You are very fluent in Korean . ”
“I picked it up as a hobby . ”
“A hobby? Then, can you speak other languages?”
“Yes . I can speak Chinese, Japanese and French . ”
He was good-looking and even intelligent!
Soon, tables were set up in the yard, people were seated and ate Lee Hyun’s ramyun .
“Thank you for the food . ”
Lee Hyun’s ramyun was special, cooked with crabs, fish oil and various seafoods in the soup base .
The problem was that it was too delicious .
“Agh! It’s so hot!”
“Oh man . It’s burning hot but it’s so good that I can’t wait for it to cool down . ”
“Steak? Pshh . I can eat ramyun for the rest of my life if it tastes as good as this . ”
The flavor broke down all international taste bud barriers .
It satisfied the taste buds perfectly and slipped down the throat, giving an unexplainable sense of fulfillment .
– Yes, you’ve done well .
You lived so diligently until now .

Life will throw hardships, but will also be fruitful and happy .
Keep your best foot forward .
It tasted like the soup had a soul and delivered a message!
A spoonful of soup that had a depth of life .
28 people remained seated after they completely finished their bowl . The kimchi and pickled radish were cleared too .
“By chance is there… more ramyun?”
Someone asked carefully .
At this moment, nothing was more important than ramyun .
They wanted another bowl very badly .
Lee Hyun’s forehead twitched, but he had a conscience .
They took the flight from such far places and how heartless it could be if he cooks just one bowl for them .
“If you can wait for a bit, I will return with more . ”
“Hurray!”
“Thank you, Weed-nim!”
The ramyun was cooked once again with loud cheers .
The people cleared seconds and thirds right on the spot .
Lee Hyun’s forehead shrivelled gradually, but each time the ramyun came they blew air on the noodles and ate voraciously .
Once their stomachs filled with warm noodles, they began to converse .
It was their first time meeting in real life, but they were close in Royal Road .
“Now that we’ve all tasted the ramyun, don’t you all agree that he shouldn’t have started as a sculptor?”
“Yeah . If he became a cook he would have slaughtered all competitions . ”
“I bet the Hermes Guild would have forfeited after tasting his ramyun . ”
“There is no ramyun in Royal Road . Maybe a seafood soup . ”
“It’s Weed-nim . He can pull out the noodles from dough and it would be easy for him to make the soup base . ”
“Using the finest ingredients in Royal Road, the dish would just be the best . ”
Lee Hyun’s cooking skills were already famous, and of all the dishes, his best was ramyun .
When he was young, he always cooked the cheapest ramyun .
He had it for breakfast and dinner, thinking about how he could make it taste better, how to keep the noodles firm and juicy by stirring it with chopsticks .
He gave his all to this one pack of ramyun .
That very essence of flavour was delivered to these people .

This ramyun party should have been over with one dish per person!
There were monstrous individuals that ate more than 3, 4 packs, even 7 .
They ran out of ramyun halfway and Lee Hyeyun had to go to the store and buy two more boxes .
“Wow… We can film mukbang right here . ”
“Hansen-nim . He’s from Netherlands, right? He sure eats a lot . ”
So the party that saddened Lee Hyun finally came to an end and Seoyoon served orange juice .
“I don’t know how it will taste . It was freshly squeezed by myself . ”
“To what do I owe this honor…”
Of everyone there, they were all males except for two people .
They took the orange juice with two hands like they were blessed .
Lee Hyun was so tired from cooking over 100 servings of ramyun, but he sat down beside Lopez, aka Oberon in Royal Road .
Lopez looked around and spoke .
“It’s such a cozy and warm house . ”
“I built a lot of it myself . ”
Lee Hyun fixed up his house from time to time .
He bought trees and tiles for decoration, and he also built hen houses and dog homes .
There wasn’t a single corner that didn’t have his fingerprints, but he was never 100% satisfied .
Even those who are happy with plain homes would think the same after seeing Seoyoon’s beautiful adjacent residence .
“I also wanted to build a house but I did not get the chance yet . ”
“Is that so? I mean… It’s not easy buying land and building a house . ”
Lee Hyun agreed with Oberon .
When he used to live in a semi-basement rent, he wished to own a house of his own .
A wish too big to ask for .
“I am currently living in a worn-down house that I inherited from my family . ”
“How old is it?”
“It’s about 150 years old . ”
Lee Hyun felt a bad premonition as he listened to Lopez .
Normally, a 150 year-old house would look something like a deserted house that was about to collapse at any moment . However, he caught on the detail that it was a house inherited through generations .
“By chance is the land like 200 pyeong or something?”
“Pyeong? I’m not familiar with the korean measurements . It should be about 290 acres . ”
“290 acres… That is quite the number, maybe because it’s an old home . ”

Lee Hyun took out his phone immediately and tapped on the calculator .
The result was insane . 355,000 pyeong!
“290 acres?”
“Yes . ”
“A house built on such a massive piece of land? Do you run farms as well?”
“I do raise horses . There is also a landing strip?”
“Landing strip?
Lee Hyun heard a word that shouldn’t belong in a house .
“You got a plane at your place?”
“I have a photo of it . Do you want to see?”
Lopez showed him pictures of his home captured in his phone .
It wasn’t a house with a cute sized lawn like the Korean detached homes .
The pictures were taken from the sky on a plane and in those pictures were a landing strip, 3 planes, a massive garden and a mansion .
“This is your home?”
“I have residences in Florida, LA and San Francisco too, but this is my family home . ”
Lopez was impressive, an American billionaire!
‘No wonder he has no interest in broadcasts . ’
Where would he even consider using the small portions of money from interviews and commercials? He wouldn’t even be able to fill the oil tank on his plane with it .
‘If I was rich like this guy, I wouldn’t regret spending 200 won more on salt . Why would I bother saving? I wouldn’t be able to spend it all no matter how hard I try…’
Lee Hyun couldn’t bear the pain of jealousy that was developing in his lower belly .
“So why did you come all the way to South Korea just for ramyun?”
“Haha . Yeah, because you invited me…”
“Do you not have ramyun at home?”
No matter how rich he was; to Weed he was just a disaster that ate 7 free packs of ramyun!
By the time Weed logged into Royal Road, the fate of the continent was much worse .
Thor, the dwarf kingdom had been focused by Kaybern during that time .
“It’s all over . My mine…”
“My house was destroyed . ”
They survived for the time being, but Kaybern’s wrath had just begun and the dwarves began to migrate away from Thor .
The draconic warriors from the lair spread out to various parts of the continent and rounded up more monsters .
Seoyoon compensated the dwarves fairly and housed them .
“A dragon that is redrawing the map… I don’t know how this will end . ”
The fact that the dwarf race quest surfaced, the situation was becoming more grave .
“Major cities were destroyed, increase in disasters and number of monsters . We can endure this moment, but when will this all end?”
In the past, the Embinyu Cult attempted to dominate the Versailles Continent entirely .
Weed managed to avoid a critical situation via the quest, but if it hadn’t turned out that way, the entire continent would have been under their control .
“The Hermes Guild managed to stop them but… Even I wouldn’t have been able to overcome them if it wasn’t for that special quest . Wouldn’t the Hermes Guild have had quite the struggle if the Embinyu Cult had some kind of hidden power?”
It would have been quite a scene if the two factions collided, but for certain the Embinyu Cult was a threat to the continent .
Now, no one wanted the continent to be destroyed by the dragon, but it could very well happen .
In Royal Road, anything could happen at any time .
“Why now? Life just got easier for me . ”
If the dragon cannot be stopped, the world would face a catastrophic end .
The emergence of the savior quest was no coincidence, as Kaybern’s continual attacks posed a threat to the world itself .
Weed’s heavy thoughts were intruded the next moment .
– Mapan: You are here! The goods are on the way to Ulgor Highlands .
The tremendous amount of treasures stolen from Kaybern’s lair!
Weed’s mouth spread wide into a smile .
“K-hu-hu . I assume you took good care of them?”
– Mapan: Of course . Though there were some dwarves that had a different heart .
The dragon’s treasures were overwhelming and there were greedy dwarves among the group .
It was a crisis back at the lair to the forest fire, and some stole a bit of treasure during the trip but most were found out after reviewing the broadcast footages .
Some lucky ones got away, but nothing could be done .
“I will be on my way . ”
