Chapter 78 I’ll Give You a Special Chance

Trudge, trudge…

Yoo Eun-ha, who had witnessed her ex-boyfriend Lee Si-woo’s infidelity at the motel.
She was only able to return home after the morning sun had risen.

“Haah…”

The spacious apartment that looked to be at least 50 pyeong, with an artistic view visible through the windows.

But even living in such a nice environment, Yoo Eun-ha wasn’t particularly satisfied.

She felt completely empty right now.

Gulp, gulp…

That’s why Yoo Eun-ha opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of soju, and drank straight from the bottle.

Since she normally loved soju and even carried it around during her homeless days,

Actually, soju wasn’t something that should taste particularly bitter to her.

“It’s bitter…”

But today, she couldn’t help but grimace at its harshness.

“Haah…”

The current situation was just too harsh for Eun-ha.

Eun-ha put down the empty soju bottle and threw herself onto the bed with its pristine white sheets.

“Haah… He said he didn’t have a girlfriend…”

Though she hadn’t particularly tried to sleep, sleep wouldn’t come.

Right now, Eun-ha’s mind was filled only with thoughts of her ex-boyfriend Lee Si-woo.

Eun-ha had clearly heard from Si-woo’s own mouth that he didn’t have a girlfriend.

But… but, he clearly said he didn’t have a girlfriend, yet he was enjoying a threesome with two beautiful blonde women… this was too much of a deception.

“Maybe they’re not girlfriends…?”

Of course, they didn’t seem like girlfriends exactly.

But that wasn’t the important point.

“Haah… Why with other women instead of me…”

Jealousy.

The jealousy of her ex-boyfriend Si-woo mixing bodies with other women, and in contrast, the emptiness thrown at herself felt painfully cold.

“I was even going to try liking him again…”

Back when Eun-ha had dumped Si-woo, honestly, it wouldn’t have been any of her business who Si-woo slept with or had relationships with.

But now, Eun-ha had come to like Si-woo again.

So she was in the process of trying to win Si-woo back.

And Eun-ha had seen that possibility.

The scenario of Si-woo confessing to her.

But…

But.

Far from confessing to her, Si-woo was sleeping with other women.

And with a threesome, no less…

From Eun-ha’s perspective, it was too heartbreaking.

“Should I… just give up…”

Honestly speaking, having been the one who dumped Si-woo, there was nothing she could do about Si-woo doing such things.

Eun-ha wasn’t unaware of the current relationship between Si-woo and herself.

They were just ex-boyfriend and girlfriend, which sounds proper but simply put, they were strangers to each other.

In such a relationship, Eun-ha had no grounds whatsoever to say anything about whatever Si-woo did.

So, the easiest method available to Eun-ha would clearly be…

Just giving up on Si-woo.

“No… I can’t give up…”

But she couldn’t give up.

If she could give up that easily, she wouldn’t have been doing such troublesome things to Si-woo in the first place.

After breaking up with Si-woo, Eun-ha had lived with a constant bruise in her heart.

And regarding that bruise, Eun-ha had thought it was because she had lost her hunter abilities, and lost everything – her status, honor, and power.

But that wasn’t it.

The real reason for that bruise was the absence of the man named Lee Si-woo.

Once Eun-ha realized this, she couldn’t help but keep thinking about Si-woo.

When eating, when watching television, when sleeping, memories of the days spent with Si-woo kept surfacing fresh in her mind at every moment.

That Si-woo who had always treated her so tenderly…

So…

Therefore.

She couldn’t give up on Si-woo.

Si-woo was clearly her man, no matter what anyone said.

“There’s no man like Si-woo…”

Si-woo was too precious a person to her.

Because something precious had been by her side so naturally, she hadn’t realized it.

But now that that precious thing wasn’t by her side, she felt it desperately.

“A man who loved only me… no matter what state I was in…”

She had once thought that other people’s claims of loving Eun-ha, Those superficial loves, were on the same level as Si-woo’s love. But Si-woo’s love was different.

He was a man who didn’t look at Eun-ha’s abilities, wealth, power, or any of that at all, but only loved and cared for the woman named Eun-ha herself.

Therefore…

“Si-woo… is mine…”

Eun-ha got up from the bed again.

And headed towards Si-woo’s house.

After spending a wild night with Reytana and Lee Narin, I ordered them to get along well.

So now we’re having breakfast-cum-lunch together.

“Master… Aahn~” “Hero-nim… have this too.”

And I was having a friendly(?) meal with the two of them on either side of me.

“Seriously, stop interfering. Want to die?” “You’re the one who should stop interfering.”

No, it seems they’re not exactly friendly yet. The two immediately glared at each other and growled from either side. It seems getting them to get along easily will be difficult.

“Both of you, stay quiet.” “Yes…!” “Yes…!”

I mediated between the two who would fight at every opportunity. Though I’m worried about the future, they do listen to what I say, so I’ll let it be.

‘It’s not like fighting would settle anything anyway…’

Originally, I was planning to keep only one of them. The reason being that both of them are difficult people to handle. Though they might look docile on either side of me right now, they are still the guild masters of The Order and the Sword Saint Society.

Anyway, they can be called quite extraordinary people, and naturally, there would be many difficulties in me keeping both of them.

Moreover, the grudge between the Sword Saint Society and The Order isn’t that light. Not just the guild masters, but the guild members also harbor considerable grudges, and in this situation, I wasn’t confident in keeping both of them simultaneously. So I tried to settle it with a fight, but…

That didn’t work out well either. As expected, it was obvious there would be no conclusion.

‘Let’s just keep both of them.’

So, in the end, I decided to keep both of them. Well, somehow it might work out if done right. I decided to think about it simply.

“Reytana. Lee Narin.” “Yes… Hero-nim…!” “Yes… Master…!”

But before that…

“Both of you go into the bathroom stall, kneel down with your hands up for 30 minutes.” “Huh… He-Hero-nim?” “Ma-Master… that’s…” “Not going?” “Yes… going right away…!”

They need to be punished for fighting. After punishing the two, I left the restaurant and headed home.

Arriving at Si-woo’s house, Yoo Eun-ha. She couldn’t help but hesitate greatly right now.

“What should I say…”

While she had arrived following where her body and heart led her to Si-woo’s house. But though she had arrived like that, Eun-ha hadn’t thought at all about what to say to Si-woo. She had just physically arrived, nothing more.

Naturally in such a situation, Eun-ha could only lurk in front of Si-woo’s house, hesitating.

“I need to say it before it’s too late…”

She needs to say it clearly now. Whether Si-woo is dating the Sword Saint and the Saint or not, this was an opportunity that Eun-ha couldn’t let pass any later. It had only been 2 months since Si-woo and Eun-ha broke up, if they grew more distant than these 2 months, Si-woo’s heart would definitely be impossible to turn back.

Therefore, Eun-ha needed to reach a conclusion as quickly as possible.

“I could never say ‘let’s date’ first even if I died…”

But as expected, Eun-ha absolutely couldn’t say ‘let’s date’ first. Because that was the essence of who Eun-ha was as a person. The unchangeable essence of Eun-ha was her thorough pride in herself.

For such an Eun-ha to confess to an ex-boyfriend to whom she had never once lowered her pride… It was absolutely impossible.

“Ugh…”

That’s why Eun-ha was so troubled. Though it would be such a simple problem if she just confessed simply, Eun-ha absolutely couldn’t do that because she had to maintain her pride. However, she absolutely couldn’t give up on Si-woo either. Si-woo had already become too precious in her heart…

“Couldn’t he… just confess to me…”

Therefore, Eun-ha’s best-case scenario was Si-woo confessing to her. Then Eun-ha wouldn’t have to lose her pride, and she could date Si-woo again. This was undoubtedly the situation Eun-ha truly wanted.

“Just what method should I use…”

But no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t think of any clever solution. Therefore, Eun-ha could only keep pacing around.

Then.

“Oh? Eun-ha?” “Kyaah!!!!?”

Si-woo appeared behind Eun-ha while she was thinking. Eun-ha couldn’t help but be startled. Because Si-woo had appeared behind her.

“What are you doing in front of our house?” “…”

Her ex-boyfriend asking her as if he didn’t understand. Though Eun-ha was very flustered by this situation right now.

‘No… this is a chance.’

However, Eun-ha quickly calmed her inner heart. And she decided to just say it since things had come to this.

“… Si-woo. You said you don’t have a girlfriend?” “Yeah. But… why?”

Trying her best to steady her slightly trembling voice. Using her ability to make her reddened face as cold as possible. And…

“Specially… I’ll… specially give you a chance.”

Eun-ha spoke while looking straight at Si-woo.

“If you ask me right here to date again… I’ll specially date you again.”

Saying she would give him a chance.
