After Ten Millennia in Hell-Chapter 62Epilogue - Interlude - Bros (2)
Epilogue Chapter 62 - Interlude - Bros (2)
“What? Ten millennia?”
Kwon Oh-Jin stared at Oh Kang-Woo dumbfoundedly. It was normal to exaggerate one’s age but ten millennia was overdoing it.
“I actually lived a little longer than ten millennia, but... I never kept count.”
Many people stopped counting their age past forty, so it made sense for Kang-Woo to stop counting after that long. He kept a record of the days he was in the Nine Hells because he possessed a strong desire to return to Earth at the time, but he lost the need to after returning.
“Hah, if you’re gonna lie, at least make it believable...”
Oh-Jin scoffed as he stared at Kang-Woo but flinched after seeing his eyes. As a long-time swindler, he could tell whether someone was lying. However...
‘He’s not lying?’
Oh-Jin flusteredly examined Kang-Woo’s facial expression— the subtle movements of his eyes, breaths, lips, and eyebrows. His senses were telling him that Kang-Woo’s words were the truth.
“Impossible...”
“Well, anyway. I’m the older one, right?”
“Kurgh,” Oh-Jin grunted.
It was only natural for the younger one to call the older one hyung, but he and Kang-Woo had so much in common that he felt defeated.
“Right, then~ why don’t you call me hyung?”
Kang-Woo smiled slyly. Oh-Jin grimaced as his lips quivered but sighed deeply soon after.
“Ngh.”
‘Well, it can't be helped. He’s the older one.’
“Come on, go ahead,” Kang-Woo goaded.
“Alright, stop rushing me, sir.”
“What?”
“I said, sir. Or do you prefer old man Kang-Woo?”
“I told you to call me hyung. What’s with the sir?”
Kang-Woo frowned and glared at Oh-Jin who smiled and shrugged.
“I mean, it’s not like we’re a few years apart. We’re millennia apart. Isn’t it only natural that I call you sir? Hm?”
“Th-That’s...”
‘Would you take a look at this brat?’
“Sir makes it sound like I’m a geezer.”
“Aren’t you?”
“What the fuck?! How do I look like a geezer?!”
‘I still get my ID checked at the liquor store!’
“That’s only because you stopped aging.”
“What about you then? We’re in the same position so what gives you the right to call me sir?”
“If you have a problem with it, give up on making me call you hyung.”
“Argh, you shameless prick.”
Kang-Woo’s wives would have scolded him to act his age but men were childish about some things no matter how old they became.
“Hyung.”
“Sir.”
The unending war of nerves continued until they became embarrassed by how childish they were acting, and both turned around as they coughed.
“Sh-Shall we go back?”
“Ahem. Yeah. Who knows what trouble my noona will get into if I leave her be for long.”
The drinking party was still on when the two men came down from the rooftop.
“Hubby~! Where the hell have you been?!”
“Ehehe, Oh-Jin! This beer was mixed with something called, uhh... nectar, was it? And it’s so~ good!”
Cha Yeon-Joo and Song Ha-Eun had their arms around each other’s shoulders.
[Hmm. This drink can make even the gods drunk?]
Vega was sipping some wine mixed with Nectar.
“My, really? He asked you to bear three of his children when you two first met?”
“Hehe, yes.”
“Hmm. Our Bella here could only think about gobbling up Sir Oh-Jin... Oh, not in a sexual way, but literally.”
“U-Unnie!”
“Fufu. You two seem to get along well.”
“We do...?”
The four other ladies enjoyed their girls' talk around the dinner table. Just as Kang-Woo and Oh-Jin did, the women became very close to one another while the two of them were gone.
“Oh, welcome back, honey.”
“Thanks. I was getting some air with Oh-Jin.”
“Hm?” Seol-Ah tilted her head after noticing Kang-Woo was addressing Oh-Jin casually and smiled. “It seems you’ve gotten closer already.”
“Well, he seemed like an alright guy after getting to know him.”
‘If you leave out the fact that he’s cocky as hell.’

“As for Yeon-Joo... I guess there’s no need to mention her. How about you, Darling? Are you guys getting along?”
“Fufu. Yes. Isabella and Cassia are both wonderful.”
“That a relief.”
Kang-Woo was a little worried since he had heard that relationships between women could go bad from the slightest things, but they seemed to be getting along well.
“Oh, we’re having cake for dessert. Would you like some?” Seol-Ah asked.
“Sounds good.”
“How about you, Oh-Jin?”
“I would love some.”
The two men heard the drunkards jeering as they headed to the dining table.
“Screw cake! Get over here and have some more drinks, dammit!”
“You call yourselves men?! Huh? Why are you having dessert?! Castrate yourselves!”
[C-Calm down, both of you!]
The goddess tried her best to calm down the two drunkards. Kang-Woo and Oh-Jin smiled bitterly and walked to the dining table, ignoring their jeers.
“Did you have a good talk with Kang-Woo?”
“Yeah, I did.”
“Fufu. Sir Oh-Jin. Sit next to me.”
“Ah, unnie! No fair!”
The two sisters sat on each side of Oh-Jin. Kang-Woo also naturally sat between Seol-Ah and Lilith.
“That aside, KJang-Woo... I heard from Seol-Ah that you asked her to bear three of your children the first day you two met.”
“Oh... Yes, I did.”
Thinking back on it now, he regretted how crazy he acted to Seol-Ah on their first meeting but he couldn’t think straight back then because he had only just returned from Hell.
“You two have been married for over a decade, right? Do you have children?”
“Oh, about that...”
They seemed to have misunderstood since there were no children in the house.
Kang-Woo clarified, “We actually have three children, though they weren’t born from just Seol-Ah.”
Since he had come to trust Oh-Jin, there was no need to hide their children from the otherworlder group.
“Oh, I see,” nodded Isabella.
She did not insensitively ask why they had been hiding their children from the group.
She continued, “On the topic of children, we’re also, umm... thinking of having kids.”
“Huh?” Oh-Jin expressed confusion as if this was the first time he had heard of it.
“We stopped using contraception, but... it’s not going as well as I thought.”
“Wait a second. What are you talking about? I make sure to use condoms.”
“Oh, I poked holes in all of them.”
“What?”
Oh-Jin was left pale-faced with his mouth agape. Isabella smiled and shrugged.
“For your information, it was unnie’s idea.”
“My, Bella. You agreed to it. It’s not good to blame others.”
“...”
Oh-Jin was shaken after hearing the truth but the conversation continued without him.
“We keep track of our cycle and make sure to do it when we’re ovulating, but... it hasn’t been going well.”
“Oh, that’s natural,” Seol-Ah remarked.
“What do you mean?”
“We only found out ourselves through experience. The stronger the power we possess, the lower the chances of us getting pregnant.”
“Really?”
“Yes, although we don’t know why either.”
Kang-Woo theorized that the will infused in their power judged pregnancy to be an act that deprived the individual of their power, making it difficult. However, it was just a theory.
“Th-Then what should we do?” Isabella looked at Seol-Ah worryingly.
Seol-Ah smiled gently as if telling her not to worry and remarked, “No need to worry. There’s a way.”
The sisters gulped and waited for Seol-Ah’s answer.
Seol-Ah smiled and continued, “Overwhelming quantity.”
The sisters were left wide-eyed.
“Pardon? What do you...”
“Your chance to win the lottery rises the more tickets you buy, doesn’t it?”
“...”
“A-Are you sure that’s the way?”
“Fufu, yes. It’s not like it’s impossible for you to get pregnant. It’s just harder.”
“Hmm.”
“I see...”
Cassia and Isabella turned to Oh-Jin and stared intently at him.
“W-Wait a second! There’s no way someone can get pregnant with such a braindead method...!”
“Oh, it’s already been proven three times.”
“Kuh...!” Oh-Jin grunted and turned to Kang-Woo for salvation.
However, Kang-Woo was having the time of his life.
“This entire building is ours. There are guest suites in the lower floors, so would you like to use those?” he suggested as he handed the sisters a key fob to the guest suites.
“H-Hey! What the hell are you doing?!”
Oh-Jin tried to stop him but the key fob was already in the sisters’ hands.
“Fufu. Thank you very much, Kang-Woo.”
“Since it’s getting late... We will excuse ourselves.”
The two sisters dragged Oh-Jin away as they waved. Oh-Jin turned to Ha-Eun for help but she was already so drunk that she had passed out while hugging Yeon-Joo and Vega.
“G-Goddammit...!” Oh-Jin realized there was no one left to help him. As if resorting to his final lifeline, Oh-Jin shouted to Kang-Woo, “H-Hyung! Help me, hyung!!!”
He had abandoned his pride. Answering his desperate prayers, Kang-Woo stood up and approached him.
“Don’t worry, my bro! I will defeat the Celestial of Musca for you! Stay put with your lovers until then! I will take care of everything!”
“Y-You motherfucking demon... Arghh!”
Slam.
The front door swung shut, cutting off Oh-Jin’s screams. Kang-Woo clenched his fist and hardened his resolve.
“Celestial of Musca...”
Kang-Woo would take him down no matter what, for the sake of his bro’s noble sacrifice.
