Part 2 Chapter 75: Welcome to the Kindergarten of Destruction! / 799

It had been a week since he started going to work at DD Entertainment every night.
“Daddy, Taecho's mouth is ouchie here.”
Taecho called out to Sejun, who was drinking coffee, and opened her mouth.
“Let’s see. What made our Taecho feel ouchie? Say ah.”
“Ah.”
Sejun looked inside Taecho’s mouth. He thought it might be a fishbone stuck in her teeth since they had eaten fish for lunch.
But.
“Huh?!”
What is that?
A black, decayed tooth was visible. It was a cavity.
Even the Primordial God can get cavities?!
Normally, the Primordial God wouldn’t have decaying teeth, but Taecho had humanized herself to resemble Sejun. Her basic structure was the same as a human’s.
But Taecho brushes her teeth every day, doesn’t she?
Sejun personally brushed Taecho’s teeth thoroughly every day, so there was no reason for her to get cavities.
What is going on?
“Taecho, be honest. Have you eaten anything without telling Daddy?”
Sejun asked in a stern voice,
“Well... actually, Blackie oppa gave me roasted and dried sweet potatoes at night, and I ate five.”
“How many times?”
If her tooth decayed, it wasn’t just once or twice.
“Um... about thirty nights?”
As expected...
Park Blackie, that brat. He has dragon teeth so they won’t decay, but Taecho doesn’t.
Kihihit. Kking! Kking! Kking!
[Hehe! You’ve finally found out! That’s right! Great Blackie was secretly taking care of the youngest behind the butler’s back!]
Blackie failed to read the room and puffed up proudly.
“Park Blackie!”
Kking?!
Expecting praise, Blackie got his cheeks pinched.
“You brat! Why are you giving Taecho food at night?! Taecho’s tooth is decayed!”
He got dangled upside down.
“Taecho, your tooth is decayed?! Then do I have to get my tooth stepped on like Daddy?”
Taecho was shocked by Sejun’s words.
“Puhuhut. The youngest’s decay is different from our Chairman Park’s decay, meow! Don’t worry, meow!”
“Whew. That’s a relief.”
Thanks to Theo’s kind explanation, Taecho snapped out of her shock.
But.
Sejun's mood worsened instead.
“Iona, is there a magic spell that cures cavities?”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. I’m sorry. There’s no such magic.”
Sejun asked Iona, just in case, but unfortunately, among the tens of thousands of spells Iona knew, none could cure cavities.
Most residents of the Tower had strong teeth, so cavities were rare.
“There is a spell to strengthen bones, so I’ll use that to reinforce Taecho-nim’s teeth for emergency treatment.”
“Okay. Thank you.”
Thanks to Iona’s magic, Sejun was able to stop the decay from worsening.
“Taecho, let’s brush your teeth and go to bed.”
“Okay!”
Sejun brushed Taecho’s teeth thoroughly and put her down for a nap along with the other destruction children.
And then.
“Let’s talk about ideas to fix this emergency.”
The group began brainstorming ways to treat Taecho’s cavity.
“Sejun, let’s just pull the tooth out. Teeth grow back if you pull them out, right?”
“Puhuhut. As expected of the future bride of the great hybrid Chairman Park, Aileen noona! A genius idea, meow!”
“Ahem.”
Aileen lifted her chin proudly, basking in Theo’s praise.
She’s so pretty...
Sejun stared at Aileen in a daze.
At that moment.
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Cuengi has a good idea too!]
Cuengi raised his front paw and spoke.
“Oh. Tell us, Cuengi.”
Kueng!
[Taecho can change her teeth to dragon teeth like Blackie!]
“Hm. That one we’ll have to think about.”
Cuengi proposed dragon tooth implants.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe! Butler! Don’t worry! Trust Great Blackie! I’ll give those germs a good lecture!]
“Like that’s gonna work?!”
Blackie, only fueling Sejun’s anger from the side, got dangled upside down again.
Kking...
[Butler is mean...]
Pat. Pat.
Sejun patted Blackie’s butt as he sat with his back turned.
“All ideas rejected.”
Sejun shot down everyone’s suggestions.
Pulling the tooth out wasn’t an option, since Taecho, in her human form, didn’t have endlessly regenerating teeth.
And if they replaced all her teeth with dragon teeth, her power might increase to harmonize with them.
Then they’d have to part with their Taecho.
Because Sejun was weak. So it was a no-go. That would be burning down the house to catch a flea.
“So, we’re going to the dentist.”
In fact, the first method Sejun thought of for treating the cavity was going to the dentist.
But.
How was he supposed to take Taecho to the dentist?
He hit a wall right from the start. The dentist, a place feared by all children.
I’m scared too...
Even Sejun, a full-grown adult, was afraid of the dentist.
That’s why he had asked the others if there was another way.
Even if he managed to take Taecho to the dentist smoothly, it would still be a problem. If Taecho, during treatment, lost control due to fear or pain and used the power of the Primordial God, it would be the end of Earth.
From beginning to end, there couldn’t be a single mistake.
Sejun, unlike his usual self, began devising a meticulous plan. A grim expression far too serious for a cavity treatment plan.
It was to treat Taecho’s cavity and save Earth!
Not sure if it would work, though.
While Sejun was busy crafting his detailed operation.
“Ujajajaja!”
“Hehe. Huljeok had a dream about eating something yummy.”
“Hehe. YamYam too.”
Taecho and the destruction children woke up from their nap.
“Taecho, come here for a second.”
Sejun secretly called out to Taecho.
“Daddy, what is it?”
“Taecho, wanna go eat pork cutlet with Daddy?”
Operation name: Operation 2025, Let’s Go Eat Pork Cutlet, initiated!
2025 had a very deep meaning, successfully completing the operation and safely welcoming the year 2025.
But.
“No. Taecho doesn’t like pork cutlet.”
Failed from the start.
“Huh?”
“Taecho likes yonggary chicken like Uncle Ace.”
Fortunately, it wasn’t a total failure.
“Ah. Then should we go eat yonggary chicken with Daddy?”
Sejun quickly switched the operation to “Let’s Go Eat Yonggary Chicken” and tried to relaunch it.
“Yeah! But Daddy’s going to make it at home, right?”
Taecho struck a critical blow to the loophole in Sejun’s detailed plan.
“Uh... that is...”
While Sejun was struggling to come up with a reply,
“Ah! Are we going on a picnic?!”
Remembering the fun she had at the amusement park, Taecho shouted in an excited voice.
“Peek-neek?!”
“Picnic!”
The destruction children, hearing Taecho’s voice, also got excited.
It was over...
Sejun made a troubled face.
He just wanted to go to the dentist, but things had gotten way too big.
This is all your fault!
Sejun glared at Blackie, who was leaning happily against his leg after getting a satisfying pat on the butt from Sejun.
Kihihit. Kking?! Kking!
[Hehe! A staring contest?! Great Blackie will win!]
Clueless as always, Blackie widened his eyes and started a staring contest with Sejun.
And then.
“Park Blackie, what are you so proud of that you’re opening your eyes like that?”
He got scolded again.
“No roasted and dried sweet potato for a week.”
This time, roasted and dried sweet potato was banned.
Kking! Kking! Kking!
[No! Let me have it! I said let me have it!]
Blackie whined and bit onto Sejun’s pant leg, pleading for the sweet potato ban to be lifted.
Thankfully, Sejun’s pants, which Ggomi had carefully stitched with her spider thread, only stretched but didn’t tear, even under Blackie’s dragon teeth.
Kkiiing...
Instead, Blackie smeared his tears and snot all over the end of Sejun’s pants.
“Sigh.”
Park Blackie, what am I gonna do with you...
Feeling a little sorry for Blackie, Sejun said,
“Don’t give Taecho late-night snacks anymore. Got it?”
Ssok.
He placed a piece of roasted and dried sweet potato in Blackie’s mouth.
Then.
Kihihit. Kking!
[Hehe! Okay!]
Blackie, instantly cheered up, beamed with joy.
“Good grief. What’s with your face? People might think you’re a dirty mutt. Stay clean.”
Sejun wiped off the tears and snot from Blackie’s face with his hand and used a skill to clean him up before placing him into the sling bag.
Normally, Blackie would’ve been offended at being called a mutt, but he was too distracted munching on the roasted sweet potato to hear it.
While Sejun was taking care of Blackie,
“Guys, let’s get ready for the picnic!”
“Picnic prep! Gotta bring Mingming’s blanket!”
“Did you pack Kkangkkang’s fork?”
“Ah! Right! My fork!”
Taecho and the destruction children were busy packing their bowls, forks, and beloved blankets for sleeping, all to take on the picnic.
On top of that.
“Jjokjjok will be carried by Gomgom, so Ddaeddae and Aaeeng will be carried by Nene and Chacha!”
“Okay!”
“Yup!”
They even took care of the babies.
“Haah.”
What should I do?
Among the kids, the picnic was already treated as a confirmed event. It was too late to say they weren’t going.
But they still had to go to the dentist...
Operation 2025 was on the verge of collapse.
I have no choice.
Then I'll go with the direct approach!
“Taecho. To fix that ouchie, we have to go to the dentist.”
Sejun told Taecho honestly,
“Daddy, then let’s go right now! Taecho wants to get treated fast so it doesn’t hurt anymore!”
Taecho grabbed Sejun’s hand and urged him to go to the dentist.
“Huh? Oh... yeah. Let’s go quickly! Aileen, I’m heading to the dentist!”
Surprised by her unexpected reaction, Sejun hurriedly informed Aileen, worried Taecho might change her mind.
“Huh? Weren’t we going on a picnic?”
Aileen, who had been packing hard in her room, asked.
“Ah. We’re going on the picnic this weekend instead. That way Dongdong and the other kids can come too.”
Sejun thought it would be better if they all went together since they were going anyway.
“Picnic with the Hyungs! I love it!”
“Hehe. What should we play with Nangnang hyung on the picnic?”
Fortunately, the kids weren’t disappointed by Sejun’s words, they were thrilled.
“Ah, that’s true. Got it. Then be careful.”
“Yeah. Kids, let’s go.”
Sejun flew through the sky with the group and arrived at the dentist.
Before entering the clinic,
“Iona, cast an invisibility spell on you and others.”
“Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Okay. Power of magic...”
Iona used the invisibility spell to hide herself, Theo, Cuengi, and Blackie. They might be denied entry because of their fur.
Sejun went into the clinic, checked in, and waited for their turn. Since Han Tae-jun had helped register Taecho’s birth, and she was listed in Sejun’s family registry, there was no problem with the check-in.
“Oh my! The child must take after her mother?”
“Yeah, she doesn’t look like her dad.”
Seriously, you're saying that in front of the actual father?!
The nurse and other patients chatted while looking at Sejun and Taecho.
“That’s not true! Taecho looks like Daddy!”
Taecho proudly put her hands on her waist and defended Sejun.
“Well... she has five fingers like Daddy... and two eyes like Daddy...”
Just stop talking...
It wasn’t much of a comfort.
While they were waiting,
“Aaahhh!”
A child’s scream came from inside the treatment room.
Whiiing. Whiiing.
The sharp sound of dental equipment followed.
Taecho’s complexion gradually turned pale.
Then.
“Uh. Daddy, Taecho doesn’t think it hurts anymore. Let’s just go home.”
Taecho grabbed Sejun’s pants and lied. Earlier, she had agreed to go to the dentist so easily because she had no idea what it was.
“Taecho, just hang in there a little. It doesn’t hurt much.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
“Then Daddy, you get treated too.”
“Huh?”
“If Daddy gets treated, Taecho will too.”
“Alright. Got it.”
Sejun agreed readily to Taecho’s suggestion.
He had dragon’s sturdy bones.
There was no way mere germs could gnaw through dragon bone. Besides, he brushed his teeth diligently every day.
And so, Sejun ended up receiving treatment alongside Taecho.
Two dentists approached Sejun and Taecho, respectively.
“Raise your hand if it hurts.”
Whiiing. Whiiing.
The dentist assigned to Sejun said this while testing the equipment before beginning treatment.
“Aaagh!”
Sejun screamed and shot his hand up.
“...Sir, I haven’t even touched you yet.”
“Sigh. I'm sorry. Daddy is a big crybaby.”
Taecho let out a sigh and apologized on Sejun’s behalf, mimicking an adult.
“......”
Sejun’s pride crumbled to pieces.
