I Alone Resurrect Chapter 147
American Dream (1)
A blonde man with pomade in his hair. Eden looked around continuously, exclaiming in admiration.
“Korea is still the same.”
“What is?”
“People bustling about busily. By the way, how long has it been?”
At Eden’s words, a woman with long brown hair flowing. Ella fell into thought.
“Since I came last December… 10 months? It’s been almost a year.”
“Has it been that long already? Time really flies.”
Eden and Ella.
They were the guild master and vice guild master of Warriors, a famous guild in the United States.
“It was so fun back then.”
“Fun… It was a terrible day even thinking about it now.”
This was Eden and Ella’s second visit to Korea.
Their first visit was last December.
They had come as leading guild members to protect the US President at the World Dungeon Summit held in Korea.
“It was such an interesting experience. There were so many strong people in this small country.”
“That fact is a big problem for us now. You know our goal this time, right? We’re not here for fun.”
“Of course. Kang Hyeon and I are well acquainted. Don’t worry.”
“Eden. Your words are making me more worried…”
“Ella. You’re too negative about everything. Life is meant to be enjoyed!”
Eden gave Ella a bright smile and put his arm around her shoulders.
“I get it, so shut up and let’s go.”
“Alright, alright.”
As they left the airport and boarded the waiting vehicle, Eden thought about what lay ahead.
‘This man called Kang Hyeon… I wonder how much stronger he’s become now?’
Though their meeting was brief, Eden remembered him clearly.
That’s how shocking Kang Hyeon’s performance was in the battle that day.
The reason Eden had actively volunteered when the government gathered guild masters and requested this mission was also because he wanted to see Kang Hyeon.
‘I can’t wait to meet you, Kang Hyeon.’

After coming to Earth, Garnet never left Olien’s side for even a moment.
Though it might have been boring to stay by Olien’s side all day as she holed up in their lodgings, Garnet never showed any sign of it and stood by Olien’s side.
“Garnet. Why don’t you go mingle with the others a bit?”
“I can’t leave Your Highness’s side. We don’t know what dangers might arise.”
It wasn’t that Garnet wasn’t curious about this place.
The strange wonders of Earth,
And the people called ability users.
The ones wandering around the guild were all incredibly strong.
Garnet wanted to cross swords with them and learn about the new culture.
‘I am the princess’s guard knight.’
But suppressing all those desires, she remained faithful to her duty of guarding Olien.
Garnet’s loyal heart changed during lunch today.
“A goblin!?”
While having lunch with Olien in the restaurant, they encountered Kergo.
“Why is there a goblin here?”
Olien asked a guild member accompanying her about Kergo, and the guild member wearing a translation device explained in detail.
“Aha! A goblin being a swordsmanship instructor. That’s really amazing.”
Currently, there were almost no goblins left on the continent.
It was said that they once formed kingdoms and prospered, but that was just a record in history books.
Hundreds of years after being destroyed by human attacks, goblins had long since become mere monsters.
“Garnet. Aren’t you curious about a goblin knight? There are records that goblins’ swordsmanship was really excellent in the past!”
“Yes…”
Garnet knew this fact well too.
Goblins were said to be violent and cruel in nature, but in combat, they surpassed humans.
However, not being as adept at strategy and scheming as humans, they were eventually destroyed by human joint attacks.
“Garnet. Don’t you want to compete with that goblin? It’s a chance to learn something new.”
“I must stay by Your Highness’s side.”
When Garnet still refused to leave, Olien decided to apply a bit of shock therapy.
“Garnet… I didn’t want to say this, but to be honest, there are many people here as strong as you. Isn’t that right?”
“That, that’s…”
“If they wanted to harm us, wouldn’t they have done so already?”
Garnet fell silent at Olien’s words.
“So, go to that goblin now. If you grow here, it will be a great help in guarding me in the future.”
“I understand…”
And so Garnet headed to the training ground with Kergo.
Even as she left, she looked back at Olien with a worried face, but Olien waved cheerfully with a bright smile.
‘Despite her status as a princess, she couldn’t treat her properly… I hope she has a good experience with this opportunity.’
Garnet, who had lacked opportunities to learn because she was a woman.
Olien had always felt guilty that Garnet couldn’t join the royal knights as she had aimed for, and ended up becoming her personal guard knight instead.
“Garnet. Have a good time!”
Olien waved cheerfully again to Garnet, who turned back once more to look at her.

“Kang Hyeon! Did the hunt go well?”
Since coming to Korea, Olien and her party had been staying at Badass’s guild house.
Currently, Kang Hyeon was using an entire small building, which was fully equipped with rest areas for guild members, a restaurant, and shower facilities, so there was no discomfort in staying there.
“Did you study again today?”
“Yes. Earth seems really amazing. Such technology without magic!”
“Really?”
“I’m telling you! There’s a field of study called magitech in Harken too… But compared to Earth’s, it seems like child’s play.”
Olien excitedly praised the 21st-century scientific civilization.
“To achieve such a brilliant civilization in less than 200 years… How can such a rate of development exist?”
Being with Olien felt like being swept up in overflowing energy.
It wasn’t unpleasant, but it was inevitably a bit tiring.
“Garnet, was it? Where did that knight go?”
“Garnet went to a place called the training ground.”
“Really? That’s unusual. I thought she said she’d never leave your side.”
“I know, right? She’s so stubborn, I wonder who she takes after. It was a struggle to send her off, haha.”
In fact, Kang Hyeon knew what had happened because he had received all the reports.
However, thinking of Olien who had been alone and silent all day, he pretended not to know because he wanted to be a conversation partner for her.
“You haven’t had dinner yet, right?”
“No. Has it already gotten that late?”
“Look outside. It’s completely dark.”
“Ah… So it is.”
She had lost track of time listening to stories about Earth.
“You really worked hard. Not even eating because of me.”
Olien bowed her head to the teacher who had been telling her about Earth’s history by her side.
“It’s nothing…”
Her teacher was a guild member who used to be a teacher, and he was completely exhausted from Olien’s barrage of questions.
“Olien. Let’s go eat dinner.”
“Are we going to the restaurant?”
“No. We’re going out.”
“Wow! Are we eating out!?”
Olien got very excited at Kang Hyeon’s words.
“That’s right. You must be bored being cooped up here all day. I’ll treat you to some special Korean beef.”
“Shoot Korean beef…? What does that mean?”
Kang Hyeon chuckled at Olien’s words.
“It means I’ll buy you some beef.”
“Beef? What’s that?”
Kang Hyeon’s eyes widened in shock at Olien’s response, which suggested she didn’t know what beef was.
“You don’t know beef!?”
“No. What is beef?”
“Oh my…”
Kang Hyeon looked at Olien with pitying eyes.
“Let’s go. Just don’t cry because it’s too delicious.”
“Why would I cry if it’s delicious?”
“Ah! Nevermind, just come with me! Let’s go!”
If they talked any more, he might get a stress-induced illness from frustration.

“Wow… It smells so good.”
Olien’s eyes grew hazy as she looked at the beef.
“You’re a princess, right? Haven’t you ever eaten something like this?”
“Even though I was a princess… I really had nothing. The royal family treated me like I didn’t exist. The nobles ignored me too.”
“Ah, I see…”
It seemed like there was a painful story there.
Kang Hyeon had no intention of prying into it.
“Garnet. This beef thing. Doesn’t it look really delicious?”
“Yes… Slurp!”
Saliva dripped from Garnet’s mouth as she answered.
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay. It would have been nice if Galiu had come with us…”
The magician Galiu, who came with Olien, did not attend the dinner.
This was because he was working day and night to send a location signal to his home country.
“What is this?”
Olien asked, looking at the yellow liquid placed in front of her.
“It’s called beer. The greatest drink in this world.”
“The smell… It’s alcohol, isn’t it?”
“That’s right. It’s made from barley, but I don’t know the details.”
“Ah! There was something similar where I was.”
Olien nodded as if she understood.
“I heard it was mainly a drink for commoners, but this is my first time actually tasting it.”
“Don’t be surprised when you eat it. Here! One shot!”
“One shot?”
“Drink it all at once!”
Kang Hyeon raised his glass and clinked it with Olien’s and Garnet’s in turn.
“One shot!”
“One shot!”
Kang Hyeon emptied his glass first, and then Garnet and Olien drank all their beer in turn.
“Hahaha! This is it!”
“Whew. This taste is really unique!”
“Now! You have to eat the meat right now. Quickly!”
Kang Hyeon placed a piece of beef in front of Olien and Garnet.
Olien swallowed her saliva and picked up the beef with her fork.
“Here. Dip it slightly in salt before eating.”
“Okay.”
Olien dipped the beef slightly in salt and immediately put it in her mouth.
“How is it? It’s no joke, right!?”
Suddenly, Olien’s eyes became moist.
“This is what Kang Hyeon meant. It’s so delicious that it can make you cry…”
Olien, who had mostly eaten weeds despite her royal status.
She was completely captivated by the beef she tasted for the first time.
“Garnet. Isn’t it amazing?”
Olien turned to the side as she spoke and was surprised.
Garnet was chewing the beef with tears streaming down her face.
“Garnet! Are you crying?”
“Sniff, sob… No, I’m not. Sniff!”
“Yeah. It can happen. Do you know how much this costs per piece?”
It was a high-end Korean beef restaurant that he had saved for this day.
Kang Hyeon could really feel that it was worth it.
“Come on, drink! If you drink beer now, it’s twice as delicious as before!”
Kang Hyeon, excited, poured beer into the glasses again.
“Cheers!”
“To cheers!”
Garnet, who was hesitant at first, was now shouting cheers with the loudest voice.
“Hehehe! This is happiness.”
Kang Hyeon exclaimed as he put his glass down on the table.
At that moment.
“Huh?”
Kang Hyeon’s brow furrowed as he sensed something.
‘Are they coming here…’
Not long after, the door to the room where Kang Hyeon was opened, and a man and a woman entered.
“Kang Hyeon! Long time no see!”
“I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere…”
The blonde man who greeted him cheerfully as if he already knew him.
Kang Hyeon quickly searched his memory.
‘When did I meet a foreigner…’
It didn’t take long for Kang Hyeon to remember Eden.
“I remember! That greatsword!”
“That’s right! I knew you would remember!”
“Eric!”
“It’s Eden.”
“Right! Eden!”
“Haha. Have you been well?”
Eden sat down naturally as he greeted.
“Wow. You’re eating something delicious. Can I join you?”
“That’s not something you should say after you’ve already sat down…”
The two who suddenly appeared.
If his memory was correct, they were the guild master and vice guild master of a famous guild in America.
‘Is it because of Olien…’
He didn’t need to think hard to know why they had come.
Princess Olien. She must be their objective.
“Um… Who are these people?”
Olien was flustered at the sudden appearance of the two.
Garnet was also in a state of high tension.
“Me? I’m a good friend of Kang Hyeon. Don’t be too nervous.”
Eden, who had been learning translation skills, spoke comfortably as if to reassure Olien.
“Sigh… Eden. What are you doing?”
Ella sighed as she saw Eden trying to pick up meat and eat it casually.
“Ella. Let’s talk about work later. We met after a long time, we should at least exchange greetings.”
“Eden! Now is not the time for that!”
Kang Hyeon nodded at Ella’s words.
“That’s right. It’s not the time.”
Kang Hyeon blocked Eden’s chopsticks as he tried to pick up the beef with his own chopsticks.
“I don’t remember saying you could eat.”
“Come on, this much is okay between friends, right?”
“Friends… That depends on what you do from now on.”
Kang Hyeon said with a fierce smile.
“Sigh… I wanted to delay talking about work as much as possible.”
Eden shook his head as if he had no choice.
“Nevermind that, just tell us why you’re here. It’s obvious anyway.”
“Right. As you’ve already guessed, we’re here because of those two. I heard there was another man, but he’s not here?”
“Whether he’s here or not doesn’t matter. You won’t be taking Olien anyway.”
Olien, who had been listening to their conversation, looked uneasy.
“Kang Hyeon. These people… Aren’t they friends?”
At Olien’s words, Eden stood up from his seat.
“Can’t be helped. I’ll introduce myself properly. I’m Eden, the master of the Warriors Guild. I’m here to take you away.”
