Chapter Index

    Choi Hana closed her eyes for a moment.

    In fact, the task was not as simple as it seemed.

    ‘But it’s also something that must be done.’

    What if they might actually become lovers?

    It is natural that there should be no lies between the two.

    However, regardless of their feelings, Lee Jun-woo and Choi Hana were more deeply intertwined because of each other’s work than expected.

    Even though I was just a cadet.

    The person Choi Hana felt had great potential was Lee Jun-woo.

    Choi Hana’s insight was very accurate.

    That is not a skill gained through experience.

    Natural talent.

    It was the power that came from the authority she inherited from her father, the legendary boss.

    The power to sense the truth.

    Although that ability has not yet fully developed, it is not as strong as her father’s.

    Nevertheless, the old father’s power was brought back to life, led by Hwang Yong-gyun.

    He was also able to survive under Song Yu-hwan’s surveillance network, who was still trying to purge the remaining forces.

    This is all because Choi Hana had a special ability to read the other person’s true feelings.

    ‘So… the impression I had of Junwoo wasn’t all a lie.’

    Sincerity is the essence of a person.

    Therefore, it was no wonder that Choi Hana first realized her powers as an alchemist.

    It was the power to look into the essence of matter.

    And that ability was absolutely effective, especially against people.

    I could always feel Lee Jun-woo’s favor.

    ‘Honestly, if you were a member of Aigis… you wouldn’t have benefited much by becoming close to me…’

    Nevertheless, the fact that Lee Jun-woo was always kind to her was the truth without any lies.

    And Choi Ha-na recently became closer to Lee Jun-woo and inadvertently read his sincerity, something that ordinary cadets would not know.

    Clearly, he was planning something that an average cadet would never even think of.

    That vague feeling became more concrete as he became more involved with Blood Jaguar.

    – Lee Jun-woo is definitely a man who will be a great help to our work. No, I would say he is a key man.

    Even the cautious Hwang Yong-gyun felt like he was treating Lee Jun-woo seriously recently.

    Although Lee Jun-woo hasn’t told me everything yet.

    It was clearly evidence that Lee Jun-woo was also doing something with Blood Jaguar.

    [Noeul-jjang♡: It’s one. It’s so amazing. Ghoul Hound is completely obsessed with Junwoo?]

    A little while ago, I also received a message from Noeul Jeong at the cafe.

    Ghoul Hound.

    Of course, he wears a mask or hides his identity when working, so not many people know what he looks like in normal times.

    I already heard from Hwang Yong-gyun that the famous Crimson Teeth villain is cooperating with Jaguar.

    Also, he has been frequenting Jaguar’s cafe recently.

    ‘Rad dog ghoul hound. Even within Crimson Teeth, he has a very extreme personality and is famous for being a battle fanatic…’

    Nevertheless, being obedient to Lee Jun-woo.

    This means that Lee Jun-woo is a special person who can control even the named villain.

    If you think about it that way, everything falls into place.

    He was a poor student at Theia Academy.

    The reason why he has recently become so strong that he can surpass even high-class cadets.

    ‘He must have been hiding his identity… and his power.’

    Perhaps the atmosphere is different from that of a hero, but is familiar with the underworld.

    Choi Hana was aware of it implicitly through her authority.

    So, Lee Jun-woo also did not show his entire truth to Choi Hana.

    In fact, if it was her original personality.

    I wouldn’t have been particularly curious about other people’s secrets.

    Because of the truth that she, too, is the boss’s daughter.

    He hid his identity and the organization’s work from everyone in the world.

    And as a vertuber, he himself is Na Haring.

    ‘But Lee Jun-woo is different.’

    I wanted to become closer.

    So, I wanted to show my sincerity without deceiving each other.

    Through his power, he already feels that Lee Jun-woo has feelings for him.

    Still, confirming those feelings directly with Lee Jun-woo is a completely different story.

    ‘I want to check more… ‘Each other’s hearts.’

    If only she told me her truth first.

    Lee Jun-woo also thought that he would tell her the truth.

    That thought filled Choi Hana’s head.

    Meanwhile, the subway arrived at Jongno.

    I could have just gone inside the cafe.

    Because Lee Jun-woo is meeting a ghoul hound.

    I stopped by the Jaguar office in the same building and spent some time there.

    After a while, I received a message from Noeul Jeong that the Ghoul Hound had left and came down.

    Hana Choi, standing in front of the cafe door, made a decision.

    ‘Today I’m getting closer to Lee Jun-woo!’

    The start is to make yourself known as Naharing.

    She opened the cafe door and stood in front of Lee Jun-woo.

    ***

    Right after the Ghoul Hound left.

    Choi Hana arrived at the cafe. I sat down with her.

    “Ma, have you been waiting long!”

    Choi Hana urgently spoke to me.

    Actually, I talked to the Ghoul Hound.

    I didn’t feel like I had waited that long.

    ‘Noeul must have contacted me again in moderation.’

    Choi Hana didn’t feel like she had come here right away.

    I talked to the Ghoul Hound for about 30 minutes.

    I must have already arrived and stopped by Jaguar’s office for a moment.

    “No. I didn’t wait long. Would you like to sit down first?”

    “Yes…!! I will.”

    For some reason, Choi Hana seemed more energetic than usual.

    An unpredictable, 4-dimensional personality.

    Still, that was attractive.

    ‘That hidden figure is Naharing.’

    That’s a secret that only a very few people know.

    However, Choi Hana probably doesn’t know that I already know that fact.

    Unless it is a special case like Jeong Si-woo.

    Choi Hana has completely hidden Na Haring’s identity.

    ‘Me too, though.’

    I think she would have noticed at first glance.

    I didn’t tell her who I was.

    However, Jaguar’s deputy boss Hwang Yong-gyun already knows the truth.

    I had a feeling that the time was slowly approaching.

    ‘It’s time to go beyond simple dating… and get closer to each other.’

    The underworld was more chaotic than what was reported in the media.

    The two most powerful forces in the underworld.

    So, the two subordinates who betrayed Choi Hana’s father worked hard to establish connections with the Hunter Association in order to survive.

    The apostle of Valhalla was encroaching on the underworld through the Hunter Association and its own path.

    The media also has a much stronger relationship with the Apostles of Valhalla than with the Hunter Association.

    Although it is not being reported.

    The apostles of Valhalla have already taken over 40% of the underworld.

    ‘The remaining 60% are nothing more than a ragtag bunch.’

    The two bosses of the underworld originally did not get along well.

    In addition, independent villain forces called Crimson Teeth are active.

    It was clear that the underworld that was not united like a grain of sand would soon be eaten by the apostles of Valhalla.

    ‘No matter how well Oriphyel maintains Crimson Teeth. ‘It’s impossible for a single force to that extent.’

    So the current crisis was an opportunity.

    An opportunity to unite the underworld again in the name of Choi Hana and Unknown.

    So I had to decide.

    Whether or not I should reveal to Choi Hana that I am Unknown.

    At that time, Hana Choi suddenly stood up and spoke.

    “Well… it would be nice to talk at a cafe, but. Why not go somewhere else to have fun?”

    I nodded at that strangely powerful voice.

    At that moment, my eyes met with Noeul’s sister.

    Seeing the two people trying to leave, they looked very disappointed.

    “Then have a good time!”

    Still, like Noeul’s good-natured sister, she waved at the two people.

    Immediately, Choi Hana blushed with an embarrassed expression.

    ***

    Hana Choi guided me to the third floor of an old building.

    Above the 4th floor, just like when the ghoul hounds attacked before.

    There is Blood Jaguar’s office.

    The third floor below is Underdolls’ studio.

    Of course, since it is a studio used by vertubers, it is a place that is completely private to the outside world.

    But Choi Hana took me into the studio.

    “Everyone will be going to work late at night today, so no one will be around. Come in!”

    And surprisingly, Hana Choi let me, an outsider, into the place.

    She said to me who hesitated for a moment.

    “Hmm… Well… Junwoo might be a little embarrassed too…”

    It’s good that you brought me here with great momentum.

    Choi Hana seems to be worried about what to say to me right now.

    ‘I am Naharing! ‘You can’t just say it like that.’

    She would be embarrassed if she felt awkward for no reason.

    I pretended not to know and asked her.

    “This is also Blood Jaguar’s building, right? Noeul is also a member of the Jaguars, right?”

    “Yes, that’s right! Our organization… no, that…”

    “It’s okay. I already knew because I was very close with Noeul. There is a connection with the blood jaguar.”

    After saying that, Choi Hana felt much more at ease. I continued.

    “And I also have something to say to you today.”

    “Yes?! Ha… if you have something to say…”

    I was planning to naturally tell you that my identity is unknown.

    Choi Hana’s face turned strangely red.

    ‘Could it be that he was thinking of something else?’

    I didn’t know that I thought I would confess my feelings to her.

    I felt my face get hot for no reason due to that reaction. Soon, Choi Hana gently turned her horse around and moved together.

    “Well, then… do you want to just have a light game for a change?”

    Hana Choi took me in front of the monitors placed side by side.

    I answered those words a little embarrassed.

    “Northern Warworld? Let’s play as a duo?”

    Choi Hana quickly nodded at those words.
