Chapter Index

    Shin Yu-jeong questioned her, trying to hide her confusion.

    “Hey, what are you saying that makes no sense? Why is he scared of me… Okay, I admit I’m scared.”

    Judging from Kim Do-jin’s attitude so far, it is true that he was afraid of himself.

    ‘… I did act a little rough.’

    If you ask why… , because of course I didn’t like it.

    Her greatest strength and weakness is that she is honest about her feelings.

    Some people say it’s good because they don’t show off, but others get hurt by excessive honesty.

    In other words, Kim Do-jin is a victim of the latter.

    Because I never once hid my disapproval expression every time I saw him.

    Anyone who sees it will think, ‘Oh, he hates that person.’ An expression that you can feel.

    Add to that the cold expression on her face that even friends who have seen for a long time sometimes say is scary when they see her, so it must have felt scary to Kim Do-jin, who was quite different from now.

    But that’s it.

    “No matter what, isn’t it too much to rub me up with Kim Jeong-hoon?”

    For Kim Do-jin, he is the second scariest person after Kim Jeong-hoon.

    That was difficult to accept.

    No, I can’t accept it.

    “Did I beat him up, or did I try to rip him off?”

    She became an awakened at an early age, and from then on she decided to become a hunter.

    Even if they are young, an awakened person is an awakened person.

    I have the personality to do whatever I want, but I know that my fists are weapons.

    Also, what she wants is a hunter that everyone looks up to.

    In order to do that, there had to be no controversy that would seriously damage my image.

    Violence, especially school violence, is an act that is perfect for sending one’s image to the abyss.

    How many hunters have had their images shattered so far due to late complaints from victims?

    That’s why she’s never shaken her fist at anyone until now.

    Of course, I had a shitty personality and would swear a bit when I was in a bad mood… .

    Son Si-woo, who is currently called the national hunter, also said that he used to swear in the past, but seeing that he has a very gentle personality now, I think that will gradually resolve with time.

    As Shin Yoo-jeong spoke passionately, Jo Yoon-kyung responded by waving her hand as if telling her to stop.

    “No, I thought you were avoiding other people’s attention… .”

    “You said you didn’t hit it?”

    “Oh, okay!”

    Jo Yoon-kyung raised her drink to cover Shin Yu-jeong’s protruding mouth.

    “Okay, let’s stop talking about that pig and talk about something else. huh?”

    It was said in an attempt to somehow change the topic, but the word ‘pig’ that came out inadvertently made Shin Yu-jeong’s mood subtly offend.

    I wanted to let her know.

    How has Kim Do-jin changed now?

    “Hey, if you look at him now, you can never say he’s a pig?”

    “huh? why?”

    “He lost all his weight.”

    Jo Yoon-kyung’s mouth widened at Shin Yu-jeong’s answer.

    “Nonsense!”

    It was such shocking news.

    The fat that had stuck to Kim Do-jin’s body was beyond the level that could be removed with light effort.

    A long fight that requires mental strength and patience.

    That’s why she thought Kim Do-jin was bad at losing weight his entire life.

    Just by looking at him, he was a person who was far from having a strong mentality or patience.

    Shin Yu-jeong liked Jo Yoon-kyung’s shocked expression.

    Should I say that I feel proud of it, as if it were my own work?

    “Huh… , will you be surprised when you see him? No, I don’t even recognize it.”

    “… “Is it that much?”

    “Uh, totally… , What, yes, a complete transformation! “It’s almost at that level.”

    “To the extent of saying it’s a complete transformation… “Do you think he’s handsome?”

    “that’s right. He’s handsome. The eyes are slightly glaring, the nose is pointed, the jawline is… .”

    Shin Yu-jeong started bragging about him like crazy.

    That’s why she couldn’t see.

    Jo Yoon-kyung is licking her lips and tasting her food after hearing my story.

    .

    .

    .

    .

    .

    .

    .

    On the way home, I was pleasantly drunk.

    I must have heard of a way to control Kim Do-jin. I just need to be motivated.

    The story that Jo Yoon-kyung inadvertently brought up made her feel uneasy.

    “Ha, indeed. “How can you rub me up with Kim Jeong-hoon?”

    Kim Jeong-hoon is the person who took the lead in harassing Kim Do-jin.

    The bread shuttle is basic, and if he doesn’t like it, he doesn’t hesitate to punch him because his flesh is so thick that it’s like a punching bag.

    Are you saying you’re next after that guy?

    “It’s funny, really.”

    It was so absurd that I even felt unfair.

    Kim Jeong-hoon was like a tyrant at the high school she and Kim Do-jin attended.

    With his excellent fighting skills coming from his superior physique and his wealthy family, he is someone that even school teachers cannot easily touch.

    I was the only one who could at least partially stop his event.

    So sometimes, I even stopped him when he crossed the line.

    … Of course, it wasn’t because I was worried about Kim Do-jin, it was because my mother was shaking her feet when she saw him so badly beaten.

    “Hey, Mr.”

    Even after coming up with a bunch of excuses to feel relieved, my uneasy feeling didn’t get better.

    In fact, it doesn’t matter whether Kim Jung-hoon is next or not.

    To be precise, the uneasy feeling that remained in my heart came from my current relationship with Kim Do-jin.

    When I thought about the causality that had built up from the past, my relationship with him was so complex and strange that I couldn’t explain it.

    And it was all his fault.

    “… “I was so hasty.”

    He awoke and rushed at it too recklessly just because it was a wizard profession.

    When a person who was once the object of fear suddenly becomes friendly and clings to you.

    What kind of feelings and thoughts was Kim Do-jin looking at himself?

    “Disgusting bitch? or not… , snob?”

    Or is it both?

    I don’t know which one, but it definitely wasn’t a good feeling.

    In fact, even before that, I had an inexplicable feeling of discomfort settling in my heart.

    After having sex with him, I felt like we had become infinitely closer physically, but it felt strange to actually call him my boyfriend, so I wondered why that was the case.

    I think I vaguely understand the reason now.

    “… Old feelings.”

    Myself and Kim Do-jin.

    It’s because of the old feelings in the two people’s hearts.

    And if you can’t shake it off, you will never be able to get closer to him emotionally, even if you build a great wall with him.

    “under… , fuck.”

    Her face immediately turned bright red.

    It was because everything I had done to him over the past few months was starting to feel embarrassing.

    Shin Yu-jeong arrived home before her red face subsided.

    What greeted her upon arrival was none other than Seo Jeong-hee’s terrifying nagging attack.

    “Oh my, look at how red his face is. How much did you drink? uh?!”

    “Oh, it’s not red because of the alcohol!”

    “Then what made you blush?”

    “that… !”

    As she became speechless, Seo Jeong-hee became even more energetic.

    “He lies every time he opens his mouth these days. That won’t work, you come here!”

    A slap to the back that even an awakened person cannot handle.

    Sigh-!

    “Ahh! “It really hurts!”

    “They hit me because it hurts, so of course it hurts!”

    Only after being grabbed for a long time due to her red face, was she able to come into her room.

    “ha… .”

    In all the chaos, a thought I had forgotten for a while came to mind again.

    I don’t know.

    I know that in order to truly get closer to him, I have to get rid of all these feelings that have built up in my heart.

    “… “Do I really have to do it?”

    In the first place, his purpose was his ability.

    So, isn’t it okay to just keep covering it up like now?

    If you think about it calmly, that’s true… , Why does my heart keep beating unpleasantly?

    It’s as if they’re telling you not to do that.

    “driving me crazy… .”

    The route must be decided first.

    What kind of relationship do you want to have with Kim Do-jin?

    A co-worker you sometimes have sex with? or not… , something really strong and caring about each other?

    When that thought occurred to me, Kim Do-jin in my heart began to grow bigger and bigger.

    Face turning red again.

    One new worry began to crowd out all my worries.

    She cupped her face with both hands and muttered softly.

    “ah… , How can I see Kim Do-jin’s face now… .”

    I was more worried about how I would face him starting tomorrow, than anything else.

    * * *

    Lunch time after morning classes.

    As always, I sat down with Lim Na-eun and Shin Yu-jeong to have lunch and then gathered together at the cafe.

    The reason is to choose team members who will work together for the next semester… .

    Shin Yu-jeong is strange today.

    A lot of that too.

    “Are you feeling a little strange today?”

    “… what.”

    “No, he talks less than usual and doesn’t even make eye contact with me… Uh, look at this. “Even now, you turned away as soon as you made eye contact with me.”

    Gotcha, you guy.

    Shin Yoo-jeong, who was caught red-handed, screamed in a panic.

    “It’s not? It’s not? Why can’t I look into your eyes? Now, look. Sleeping like this, you can see clearly?!”

    The gaze with strong force is directed in this direction.

    He somehow managed to make eye contact with me, but I could tell just by looking at his pupils that they were shaking violently as if an earthquake had occurred.

    Right now, he’s having a very hard time making eye contact with me.

    “Stop talking nonsense and choose a teammate.”

    At the same time, Shin Yu-jeong turns her eyes away again.

    I’m curious.

    Why on earth is he doing that?
