chapter 28
#28. It looks like a good match.
A leisurely weekend morning.
I made coffee with the coffee machine and looked out the window blankly.
However, yesterday, Choi In-wook safely took care of the necessary items for the dungeon.
Probably that level of stuff would be enough to be used until the second year.
Since I found out that Choi In-wook went to the student council room in the morning and secretly rummaged through the dungeon list, I stopped by the student council room every day before going home to check the list of dungeon applicants.
I am Yoon Harin. No, it’s something she can do overwhelmingly better than any other woman.
It was to keep his side as his hunter pair.
To be honest… I wasn’t confident in other fields.
I didn’t know how to do things like Yoon Harin, who put iron plates on her face and showed affection, and it didn’t seem like she could do it.
However, when we met last time, I didn’t say that I like that kind of person…
It wasn’t a battle without a win for me either.
I succeeded in asking him to call me for coffee the next time.
As we did in our previous lives, if the time we spent together increased and we recognized each other’s true worth, he would definitely choose me.
Will you choose me…?
I hesitated for a moment, then immediately shook my head.
It was not like me to make a weak sound.
It’s more like Yushihwa than anyone else.
If I had decided on a destination, I just moved forward.
Burre.
The phone vibrated loudly.
The name of the man I had been waiting for for so long was floating on the phone I picked up to see if there was anyone to contact me on the weekend.
[Hello.]
[Hello. It’s Sihwa I’m Inwook…]
…Unfortunately, the content of the call was not what I wanted.
* *
To be honest, I didn’t have any major complaints about bringing Choi In-wook to me.
It was nice to be able to spend a little more time with him, because he needed me.
I thought it was meaningful just that.
By the way, I wanted to go this far for some MT.
I’ve never been to such a thing, but at least I knew the fact that I didn’t go this far.
Choi In-wook looked like he was very nervous because I drove the car too fast.
The figure of him holding the seatbelt tight looked cute.
When I arrived at Ojin Mountain Village, a person believed to be a member of the club spoke to me.
I was skeptical about the car, but in fact, I just bought it because it was pretty.
I was thinking about whether I should slowly nod while listening.
A conversation that cannot be overlooked went back and forth between them.
Because among the names they mentioned, she was the last chosen by Choi In-wook.
It was because Hayena was here.
I couldn’t stand the sudden fever.
I had no complaints about driving and making time for Choi In-wook.
But his purpose is to have a good night with Hayena?
It felt like being hit hard in the back of the head.
And just like Younha Rin and I, maybe Ha Yena also had memories of her previous life.
She clenched her fist.
It was like a colonel in front of her mouth to tell Ha Jena to eat the finished rice.
After a while, the door opened and Hayena appeared.
I knew right away that she exchanged her greetings with her briefly and shook her hand.
The emotion in her eyes.
It was never the kind of emotion I could show to someone I was meeting for the first time.
The look in your eyes as if you were looking at an old enemy.
I can’t confirm the reason yet. Hyena had a clear hostility towards me.
If this was a normal MT, I would have gone home without looking back, but today was different.
“I came all the way here. I have to play properly.”
I was the one who declared that I would not return to Choi In-wook today.
It was a good thing because Hayena had something to check anyway.
From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Now. Where are you going to find out what you are hiding?
* *
There weren’t that many members of Choi In-wook’s club who came to
MT.
There were about six men and women.
Originally, when I asked if it was such a minority club, I was told it was because it was an unpopular club.
It’s a monster painting club. Did my husband have such a hobby?
I had hardly ever seen Choi In-wook holding a pencil, let alone a brush.
People who have been to the store said that they were preparing dinner, and a person called the manager assigned the roles.
“Now, let’s make a fire outside for the boys. And the girls bought various vegetables. Could you prepare some for that?”
My cooking skills were not very good, but it seemed that I could only prepare vegetables.
“Oppa. I woke up last night, but is it okay if I sleep a little more?”
“Uh huh. I can’t say anything after coming to practice. Ha… Yena. Shihwa-san. Is it okay for two people to do it?”
The woman, who was standing like a zombie with half-dead eyes, looked at us with a desperate expression.
Well… It doesn’t matter.
“Yes. I’ll do it.”
Hayena nodded her head and she replied.
“I’m fine too.”
She decided that it would be more convenient to have a conversation with the two of them.
I was also curious about what Inwook Choi had to say about me a while ago.
“Then I’ll ask you a favor.”
“Come on, guys, let’s get ready to grill meat with me.”
“Hey.”
Because everyone didn’t want to go out, the members gave strange answers rather than quick answers.
…Actually, I wasn’t paying much attention, but the members here. In particular, do all the male members feel that way?
Looking at it, it was like a gathering of people who were desperate to thrive as a hunter.
Choi Inwook wondered why he joined such a club.
One by one, the men went out, and after a while, only me and Hayena were left in the dormitory.
“Then shall we prepare soon? Mr. Sihwa.”
Hayena spoke to me first.
“Yes.”
So we took out the vegetables from the refrigerator and stood side by side in front of the sink.
“Shihwa, cut the cucumbers and carrots here into bite-size pieces. I’ll wash the wrap.”
She gave me her sword and she began to do her job without a word.
Worried about what to ask first, I decided to start with a light question.
“Jenna.”
“Yes?”
“What kind of club is this club?”
She glanced at me with a squint, and answered, wiping her vegetables dry.
“Monster painting. It’s a monster painting club.”
“Jena likes drawing, don’t you think?”
“Yes… Well. All right.”
“Is Inwook Choi good at drawing?”
In the end, there was only Choi In-wook who had a common theme between the two of us.
It was a question I asked because I thought it was obviously a non-trivial question, but Hayena’s expression was that of asking something like that.
“Is that him?”
“Yes.”
“Even if I draw with my feet, I think I can draw better than him?”
…It was an unexpected answer.
Hayena has a bad relationship with Choi Inwook…?
“Still, it looked friendly from earlier. Isn’t it?”
Hey, I clicked her tongue like she was shivering.
“Yes. No.”
I was getting more and more confused by her tone of voice that something was really annoying.
Even up to the first meeting, I thought that the reason he hated me had to do with Choi In-wook.
Are you saying that wasn’t the case again? No. Then the meaning of those eyes you showed me…
Hayena’s behavior is me too. Inwook Choi. It felt like it was dirty.
To be honest, at this point, I felt like I could just go home.
At least now, Ha Ye-na didn’t seem to have any interest in Choi In-wook.
Then it was me and Yoon Ha-rin who returned. Is it two people like this?
Maybe my hypothesis was wrong.
After thinking about her for a while, I threw her questions to her in a different way to confirm her.
As I remember, she was an extremely rare hunter who did not go to the battlefield even though she possessed her S-class hunter qualifications.
Let’s see how he reacts this time.
“Jenna.”
“Yes.”
There was a bit of annoyance in her answer.
She felt like she didn’t want to talk to me, but she had no intention of backing down.
“What do you think of the position of an S-class hunter?”
“I think it’s a position occupied by very talented people.”
She was the one who answered dryly.
“I think that every S-class hunter should act worthy of the given name.”
Hayena’s hand, which was moving in a hurry, stopped for a moment.
“Is that so?”
“I think they have to do their best to contribute to a safe society. What do you think?”
She turned off her running water and lowered her head for a moment, then answered in a low voice.
“Isn’t there a situation for each individual?”
“What if a lot of people are sacrificed because of that individual?”
“… I think in a democratic society, she can decide what she wants to do.”
Her words are somewhat sharp.
She wouldn’t have to respond so sensitively to my questions as she hasn’t yet she’s not even an S-class.
There was a moment of silence between us.
After washing all her vegetables, I took out her bowl and looked at me as if I was an alien creature.
She looked at me with her hand and opened her mouth.
“…Mr. Sihwa.”
“Yes?”
“Are you cooking for the first time?”
I think this is good enough.
I thought it was the same food that went into my mouth anyway.
It was a little crooked, but there seemed to be no difficulty in eating.
“It’s not like that…”
“From what I was talking about earlier, it seemed that Inwook was very interested.”
She grinned.
“Seeing that both of them have similar dexterity, they seem to get along well.”
…Did you just curse at me?
