chapter 78
Episode 77
He was like a savior to me.
It was the driving force that raised me after I had collapsed, and it wasn’t just a teacher-teacher relationship.
The affection he gives me may be dusty, but I don’t resent it.
Originally, love is a one-way street.
“Whoops. Me too. Master’s beauty is still the same~ Every time I see it, I feel good.”
“And you too. You’re still pretty.”
But jealousy could not be suppressed.
Han Choa turned her head and looked at Cheon Hae-beom with a resentful gaze.
“…….”
All my life, I have been single-mindedly looking at Master.
Even if he left and my heart was empty, I did not have another relationship.
I’m afraid my master will be disappointed.
I don’t want to be hated by him and I want to look good.
But why is Master doing that?
Why is Master making eye contact with another woman right now?
Why is it that he doesn’t even give me a single glance when I’m giving him such a blatant glance?
“……!”
Unknowingly, he harbored evil thoughts and resented Master.
My self-loathing soared at the terrible thought.
He shook his head desperately and reprimanded himself.
‘I’m sorry, Master.’
Han Choa blamed herself and apologized to him in her heart.
Let’s not be too sad.
“But Master. What is that short-haired kid next to you? He keeps looking only at Master with a pitiful gaze.”
Cheon Hae-beom’s head turned around at Baek Ye-rin’s doubtful question.
The same hard, heavy expression every time.
A man with such a face was examining himself with a sidelong glance.
“Hmm….”
The man let out a deep saliva as if embarrassed.
After wasting several minutes in silence, he stopped talking.
“Han Cho-ah is my cadet.”
cadet in charge.
He never said that he was his own disciple.
Why?
Because I am ashamed of my disciple?
I really feel like my situation is getting more and more embarrassing and pitiful.
Han Choa lowered her head.
“Aha. I see. But for a young cadet, the magic level is a monster?”
“It has to be. That child is my favorite disciple.”
“Yes? Are you a disciple?”
“Yes. He is a disciple who is especially cherished and adored.”
“S-Master?!”
what?
Han Choa was excited and shouted loudly.
I couldn’t help but get excited.
I couldn’t understand why Master, who had never spoken affectionate words in his entire life, would throw such a fastball.
I should have been happy, but the embarrassment outweighed the joy.
It was such an unexpected remark and an embarrassing compliment.
Han Choa timidly hid her eyes to the side and cried out to Master.
“That Master…”
“Yeah?! Go, what do you mean by that all of a sudden?!”
Her words were cut off by Yerin Baek.
“No, what the hell happened here, the disciple…! Couldn’t Master have been appointed as an academy instructor for that reason?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“As expected, my intuition is accurate…! I’m really sad, Master! We’re all grown up, so I don’t even care- Ah, let this go, mister!”
“Stop it! What kind of insolence is this in front of Master!”
“What! Did I say the wrong thing? I’m right! We’re the only ones who get caught up in things like that!”
Baek Ye-rin’s eyes filled with obvious hostility turned to Han Cho-ah.
The other cadets wouldn’t dare to bite her.
They just crawl and look good.
However, the cadet who received her hostility as a direct hit was none other than Han Choa.
‘f*ck, I’m out of breath.’
It was too much to live from Han Choa.
Yes, that’s one choah.
Do not be discouraged by others, and if you get hit by one, you have to pay back two.
And it has quite a bit of power.
Of course, that is not the case now.
Wake up to the ssambakjil on this exciting festival day.
There are many eyes to see, and important big players will only lose my honor if they show a bad side in their seats.
Cheon Hae-beom grabbed Han Cho-a’s shoulder to calm down.
Her life softened like a lie and soon disappeared.
“Well done.”
“No. I’m sorry that only Master is in trouble because of me.”
“Keuheum. There’s nothing to be sorry about. Do you fully understand your feelings?”
With just one word, he becomes docile.
Chun Hae-beom looked ahead.
“Ah! I have a lot to say!”
“Calm down. What will Master think of you…”
Baek Ye-rin runs rampant like a madman.
Ma Seong-yong gets caught up in Baek Ye-rin.
‘Ehh.’
In the battle of whales, only shrimp’s backs are broken.
Ma Seong-yong, who was struggling to stop the fight alone, was grateful and sorry.
“We were made through a special meeting, but what about that kid! You become a disciple just because you’re a cadet? You got lucky and got caught!”
“Master. I’m sorry. Yerin has accumulated a lot of things, but it seems to have exploded today…”
Well.
The relationship between Han Cho-ah and Cheon Hae-beom was not such a mess.
“Don’t be too grumpy. Han Choa is a talented person and caught my eye. It’s only reasonable that I take this guy as a disciple.”
“No matter what! A cadet with no one-on-one-“
“Don’t get me wrong. Choa Han and I have been in a strong teacher-teacher relationship for over 10 years.”
“What, what?”
“Baek Ye-rin, the devil’s dragon. It means that she was a beloved disciple who was raised around the same time as you.”
“…….”
Baek Ye-rin’s lips, which had been moving like a motor, stopped.
“Yeah, that’s right. I thought Master got tired of us and was looking for another student.”
“Do I really need to do that? And why do you have such doubts?”
“Umm… Is it because you’re doing something that Master didn’t do? All of a sudden, you’re an academy instructor. We thought Master would take one of the outstanding students as his apprentice.”
Isn’t that my freedom?
I barely swallowed the words that were about to come out of my mouth.
“Hey, did you say Han Cho-ah?”
“…….”
In response to Baek Ye-rin’s friendly tone, Han Cho-ah replied in silence.
“Sorry~ I’m sorry~ I misunderstood without knowing and caused trouble. I apologize.”
“Take it to Master, not to me.”
“Huh? Uh. That, yes. I’m sorry, Master.”
You treated Dawn Guild master Baek Ye-rin so harshly?
Does Han Choa not know who that woman is?
“So kid. Are you interested in our guild?”
What kind of affinity is this?
It is surprising that he offered a scout to Han Cho-ah, who was impatient with not being able to catch and eat.
“Guild?”
“Yeah. You know it’s the Dawning Guild, right? I’m Baek Ye-rin, the master of that guild, you know? The hero ranked 6th in Korea.”
“I don’t know.”
“….. Ah. You don’t know. Yes. You can. Anyway, I’ve heard of the Dawning Guild.”
“You’re hearing it for the first time.”
“Ah, ah, that’s the first time I’ve heard of it.”
She could have given up because she was embarrassed, but Baek Ye-rin said everything she had to say until the end.
“The Dawning Guild is one of the top 5 guilds in Korea, a prestigious guild. Do you see Mr. Ma Seong-yong next to me? I heard that our guild stands shoulder to shoulder with this man’s guild.”
“Who is that uncle?”
“Kuhm.”
“Well, in any case, our guild is investing without sparing any capital in the welfare and training of our guild members. As long as we make a contract, of course we will get exclusive weapons…”
This woman is here to celebrate. She’s here to do business.
I stirred with a tired expression.
“If there’s one downside, it’s that it’s new? It’s been 5 years since it was founded, so compared to other guilds, you can still say it’s a rookie.”
She proudly stuck out her chest and spoke arrogantly.
“In other words, we took the top spot in such a short amount of time. And we’re still not satisfied. Cool, right?”
“Yes.”
“So, do you intend to join our guild?”
“do not have.”
A firm and cold answer.
Baek Ye-rin, embarrassed for some reason, scratched her head.
“I-I see. So what about the yellow-haired kid over there?”
Shin Na-yul’s shoulders trembled.
“Me, me?!”
As if startled by the sudden call, she opened her eyes wide.
“Why am I suddenly…?”
“You look too sad to miss it. What’s your name?”
“Poetry, Shinnayul.”
“Excited? Your name is pretty.”
“Ah, no… Shin Na-yul… Na-yul…”
From the time Baek Ye-rin appeared, Shin Na-yul was enchanted.
He probably knew who Baek Ye-rin was.
“Something like me is in the Dawning Guild…”
Shin Na-yul stutters with a timid voice.
It’s frustrating, so it’s worth noting, but Baek Ye-rin looked at Shin Na-yul as if she were cute.
“It’s not a losing proposition, you know? Who is your sister?”
“Yes, yes…”
“Of course you agree, right?”
“Uh…”
Shin Na-yul gave me a desperate look as if she was asking for help.
I shrugged.

“Second Shadow. What kind of food is this?”
“It’s called chicken skewers, grilled chicken on skewers. It’s a popular street food.”
“It smells delicious. What is that cute poopy food?”
“Takoyaki is a dish made by putting octopus and various other ingredients in round flour dough and baking it.”
“Takoyaki… Yes, I’ve heard of it. What’s that crunchy up there? Is it gold dust?”
“…… No. It’s katsuobushi. It’s added to add umami.”
“Hmm. Let’s try that again.”
“…… Yes.”
Kang Min-sung found this situation itself awkward.
He went all the way to the academy to meet the author, Chun Hae-beom.
And this is an obvious limb.
Their identity may be exposed to some, so you must act cautiously and covertly.
So, I need to get things done as quickly as possible and leave…
“What else is that?”
“… It’s a snack bar.”
“snack shop?”
Are we here for food?
Why are you wasting your time on such useless things?
“Um. Let’s go over there once.”
“Are you talking about a snack bar?”
have already given up
Even if I say something sincere, the reckless chief will say he doesn’t know me.
“That’s right. Don’t hesitate and follow me.”
“Ha ha. I see.”
