Varn once again stood at the same hill. Not with Karion. Just himself. Kairon had been acting strange. He was smart before. After all, he was Lord Hedin's son.
Varn then took a good look at the houses. The same houses which were once vacant, now had families residing in them.
He was right. People came. They were refugees too. They immediately took in Kairon's offer.
Kairon was smart. But was he a clairvoyant? Nope.
"It was strange. He did not even know his sibling's name. I specifically told him their name to check his reaction.." He turned to look at the mansion. "....."
"I will hold onto a tiny hope" He mumbled to himself.
"The hope that he's Kairon. And if not, the hope that Kairon is safe."

Kairon sat on the table of his study room. Even though the chair was right next to him.
He stared at a page on the table with confusion, it was a slightly larger page than normal scrolls but smaller than scripts. It had some scribbles written on it.
The page wasn't delivered by anyone, it was just present there when Kairon had entered the room. But it's presence wasn't the issue. The true issue was the word written on it.
It wasn't the Florenve language of the Gushen kingdom, neither was it the Rositian language of the Rainsworth.
It was a very familiar langauge. One Kairon..or rather Kang Johoon would be accustomed to.
Korean.
"It's very strange. This paper..." He grabbed the page, it was as if it was made out of paper that was recycled hundred of times. He tore a small piece out of it. He took a good look at it before eating it.
He immediately spat it out.
"Ughh.. it's actual wood."
He tried to humour himself out of the anxiety, but the fact was still too frightening.
He finally picked up the page and read it.

어두운 달이 빛나고 게으른 악마가 운율을 맞출 때, 모든 희망이 사라졌을 때, 변칙적인 현상이 파우스트를 가져올 것이다
(When the dark moon shines, and the lazy demon rhymes. When all hope is lost, then the anomaly will bring faust.)

"..." For a moment he was silent. It was a very hard attempt of trying to write poetry but failing miserably. Too miserably.
"This is so ass. Its like using a translator to turn a english poem into a korean one." Kairon crumbled the paper and threw it on to the table.
"Should have just wrote it in english. I am fluent in a handful of them. I even learnt that stupid Lorenve language from the novel"
He kept on talking to himself, in fact the Lorenve language was actually a full on langauge created by the author of the novel.
It was stupid and unnecessary as there was no reason for anyone to learn a language of a kingdom that doesn't exists. But Jo-hoon had very much free time in his pocket.
The poem seemed like a bad attempt to tell a prophecy. It was hard to understand what it even meant. The only thing Kairon knew about was the "lazy demon". It was none other than the protagonist of the novel he had transmigrated into. The demon king's tea time, Magnus Caffeine.
"Pffft!" Kairon couldn't help but let out a chuckle, the caffeine after his name was too goofy to make him seem scary.
Suddenly, a familiar ding echoed in his mind like a village bell calling for a meeting. The system's translucent blue screen floated like a bee wondering whether to sting or not.

"Wow, these look quite useful" Kairon read the description with great interest, rubbing his chin like an accountant.
Just then, he noticed something.
"What's RP?" He clicked the [BUY] button with a hint of confusion, and suddenly another window popped right at his face.
---
[You don't have enough RP!!]
[Please collect more RP to buy the functions]
---
"Huh!?" Kairon frowned, putting both his hands on his waist and staring at the screen before complaing.
"What the hell? What even is RP? How am supposed to collect it? Shouldn't this be an award?" He kept on ranting before another screen was thrown right on his face.

[RP stands for "Re-Writing Points". These points can be achieved by doing something that can effect the plot of the novel. The more impactful the change, the more RP points that can be provided.]
[It was sensed that you have not done anything that can impact the story of the novel "Demon-king's-tea-time", so you have not been given any points.]
[..Please work hard to change the "True ending".]
---
Kairon sighed and facepalmed, leaning back to the table before staring at the ceiling.
"To make impactful changes in the plot... I had almost forgotten about the whole reason i came here for. Since Gushen Kingdom was only mentioned one or two times let alone Avelra, i don't think there will be anything that will help me gain the RP.".
He then looked forward and approached the window right infront of him, it wasn't there before, he had Varn make it.
He then took a look at the view of the town with houses filled with families.
"...Now that I think about it, aren't my siblings in Oshied? From what I heard from Varn, they must be studying in the Royal Academy. Oh man.. i am kinda into that troupe."
He smiled, placing his hand on the glass "Now i am more intrested in going there."
