“It burned white….”

“If I had to do it again, I don’t think I could do it….”

wow.

I sat in the makeup room in the public relations department and looked at the mirror.

I’m really sorry, but I’m not sure what’s changed.

“I think everyone will be surprised by this?”

“Let’s go out quickly. I can already see the surprised faces of the president and the foreign students. Ho-ho-ho.”

“Ah yes.”

If you lift it up like that, your confidence will increase. Do I really look good?

Is this magical makeup that only looks good on women’s eyes?

I looked in the mirror, tidied up my clothes, and left the dressing room.

An angel was naturally sitting on the sofa in the public relations department.

No, it’s not an angel, it’s Ellis.

The scene where Ellis first appears in the game suddenly came to mind.

[How should I express her appearance climbing the podium at the entrance ceremony?]

[The blonde hair arranged along the gracefully curved body seemed to brightly illuminate the surroundings.]

[Unrealistically white skin and delicate facial features.]

[The combination of a beautiful face and a cadet uniform seemed like a symbol of innocence, but there was a hint of sexiness in the calm expression.]

[The sight of her briefly while climbing the three steps of the platform was deeply imprinted in my mind.]

“It’s crazy to stare at people like that.”

“Ah, ah. Sorry.”

Without realizing it, I stared at Ellis’ face.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“Oh… it went beautifully.”

“…Thank you. But why are you the same as when you walked in?”

No, I heard there was a fuss. Sisters.

is not it? Maybe they’re embarrassed and don’t show it.

“Big, well. That can happen.”

“When you’re done, come out quickly. The chairman is waiting outside.”

With those words, Ellis left the public relations department first.

If that’s acting, I could turn into an actor.

Icy, the makeup alone took over an hour. I suffered in vain.

“…Junior, you are truly amazing and crazy.”

But the reaction of Surin, who was waiting outside, was a bit different.

“Hey, it’s the same as usual, what are you talking about?”

“I really don’t know how to express it… It’s crazy! It’s just.”

After all, am I tidying this up?

I felt good again after receiving Sister Surin’s praise and sparkling eyes.

“First, I’ll take a picture with the student council in the background!”

A male photographer with a cheerful look suggested a photo.

I made an awkward expression and made a V with my left hand.

“Wow, the boy was so nervous. It hurts his face.”

“S-sorry.”

Tuk-tuk.

I heard someone tap me next to me, so I looked over and Ellis made eye contact with me.

“Follow me.”

Ellis crosses her arms and turns about 45 degrees to show her back to me.

ah. That’s the attitude.

I also turned my body about 45 degrees and placed my back against Ellis’s.

“Oh, my posture is good. I feel confident!”

Click click.

“It came out amazingly well. Let’s go to the next location!”

“Okay, let’s take a picture.”

Click click click

“Next, I’ll go to the academy library~.”

I don’t know how many times this has already happened.

Sister Surin was watching at the student council and disappeared as she had a lot to do. When I saw it, it seemed like this older sister also ran away because she was bothered.

Ellis also looks a little tired. You will be physically healthy, but mentally it will be difficult.

“Let’s take a shot of each other holding a book, sitting on a chair, and reading a book!”

You are really passionate. Do you get paid a lot?

Click click.

“Now, what’s next… Wow, it’s already been so long.”

It’s finally over! The end of 3 hours of filming… !

“After lunch, we’ll meet again at the Victoria Academy central fountain by 1 o’clock.”

Holy shit.

The filming team left those words and went to eat while laughing.

Me and Ellis looked at each other in the library like abandoned ducks.

“Do you have any plans for later?”

“There’s nothing in particular.”

“Then do you want to go to lunch together?”

“…Like that.”

Fortunately, we eat together.

Ellis answered briefly and took the first step.

“…”

Ellis walked ahead and entered what looked like a restaurant.

I quickly followed behind him.

When the waiter came and said he was taking our orders, I looked at Alice and she sighed and ordered, ‘Please give me the same thing.’

Are you a genius? I would say that too.

The waiter disappeared, and I quietly looked around.

It reminded me of a steakhouse I went to when I was in my 20s.

I really liked that place back then, but the atmosphere here is different.

What’s different about the air is that it’s high-quality air that you can breathe in, so it seems like you’ll get paid for it.

Yum Yum.

Alice, who is sitting in front of me, is quietly eating her pre-dinner bread as if she doesn’t think much of it since she comes here often.

hmm. I have nothing to do, so should I try talking first?

Praise makes even whales dance. Let’s give a compliment.

“But you did a really good job with your makeup. I was surprised earlier.”

“Why are you flattering me all of a sudden?”

“Uh… I was just saying what I felt… sorry.”

“No, I have to apologize… Sigh. Just eat quietly.”

“huh….”

Why are you so harsh? Are you mad at me?

I also felt a little awkward and quietly ate the bread.

Soon after, the meal came out and we finished eating.

From time to time, we talked to Ellis about his favorite topics.

Fortunately, we were talking about a classic movie that was released a few days ago.

‘I’m glad I studied Alice’s tastes.’

Since I never know when I’ll meet up with Ellis, I’m memorizing all the news about my favorite author’s new works or classical performances.

Somehow I finished lunch and left the restaurant.

It took quite a while to eat, so it was almost time for our appointment.

“It took surprisingly long. It’s already 12:50. Let’s go quickly.”

“It’s because you keep saying unnecessary things. When eating, it’s good manners to focus on what you’re eating, but don’t you know that?”

“But it was fun. Don’t you want to see Figaro and the Pirates?”

“That’s true, but… Sigh, I’m exhausted. The afternoon schedule will end soon, so just follow along. Let’s finish it quickly.”

Ellis looked around and walked straight ahead.

“Uh, over there? Isn’t it over there?”

The central fountain is on the other side of the store.

Ellis either didn’t hear me or ignored me, so he kept walking.

Can’t you hear me?

*

“Okay, is this the end of today’s filming? Thank you for your hard work!”

“Thank you for your hard work!”

“thank you for your effort!”

The afternoon filming was definitely finished quickly. After moving the location twice, it is in good condition.

If I hadn’t turned back because of Ellis, it would have ended sooner.

“If you don’t know the way, you shouldn’t have spoken.”

“…That could be true. People can’t always be perfect.”

“Well, I feel good because I saw your humanity. I walked towards the central fountain, but I didn’t expect to see the outer walls of the academy.”

“….”

“Tsk.”

The embarrassed expression that Alice made when she faced the outer castle wall on her way to the central fountain was really cute.

It was funny that he glanced at me, then turned red and walked in the opposite direction at a fast pace.

“…Lee Ho-yeon.”

Ellis calls my name in a low voice.

Fucked. Are you angry?

Then, he strides over and pokes my chest with his index finger.

“There’s a limit to how I can tolerate you acting rudely just because you’re handsome.”

Ellis gave me a warning rather than a warning and ran away as if running away.

“I learned this from you, bitch….”

And you said earlier that you looked the same before and after getting makeup done, so it’s true that you look better. what.

“Oh, I don’t want to wake up.”

I spent all of Saturday out of the two weekends filming, so it makes sense to take Sunday off, but I still have work to do.

I have to go shopping.

Of course, I’m not going to a large supermarket, it’s black market shopping.

“I have an opportunity to make money, so I have to earn it.”

To check the information of the original item, you must use [Emotion] magic or an emotion scroll.

However, with the equipment status window, I can see information just by looking at it.

Anyone can tell that this means taking care of fraudulent items lying around on the black market.

I was determined to make that idea come true this weekend, but it wasn’t easy to get up.

“Ugh. If you’re going to go anyway, it’s better to go early and take a break.”

Let’s put off until tomorrow what we need to do today. That’s my motto, but I’ve already put it off enough.

Starting tomorrow, I start class, so I don’t have much time anymore.

I forced myself to open my eyes, put on my civilian clothes, and went out to the Academy Mall.

Emergency stairs at Samro Department Store. It is a black market passage route that leads underground.

Different guys from the last time were guarding it.

I held out the coin, and he quietly moved out of the way, so it went right through.

“It’s the first time since I last came to the pharmacy, so it’s been quite a while.”

Let’s also stop by the pharmacy. There may be a surprising harvest.

There were people doing business with stalls all over the basement.

Starting with monster by-products, there was also a guy selling beakers full of blood and live fish.

It is a truly amazing sight to see in person.

Of course, there are some people like that who sometimes have talent, but most of them are losers.

The black market is a place that everyone knows about and overlooks.

The country and the association are not stupid, and there are people with all kinds of abilities, so how can they not notice the flow of money and goods?

In the end, this is a ‘weak black market’ with relatively weak people.

The ‘strong black market’ is truly hidden and only VIPs are allowed in.

It is truly full of illegal elements that cross the line, such as human trafficking, human experimentation, rape, and monster gladiatorial arenas.

Even if the location is specified, there are cases where the amount of lobbying involved is significant, so they turn a blind eye.

Anyway, this is a ‘weak black market’ of low quality.

However, there may be hidden treasures there.

Because beggars in the ‘weak black market’ cannot have a good eye for treasure.

“It looks like everyone is here.”

[Boutique Antique]

This is a store that openly says that there are a lot of antiques here.

It’s a good place to start with because it’s a store rather than a stall.

I entered the store by lifting the curtain covered with cloth.

A musty smell from old items. It smells like money.

“This is my first time seeing you. Welcome.”

An old man sitting on a chair inside the counter smiled and welcomed me.

The clothes are shabby and a few teeth are missing, so it doesn’t look good.

“Is there something you’re looking for? I can give you a rough idea.”

I didn’t answer and just looked around the object quietly. The old man also quietly closed his eyes and fanned himself, probably not expecting an answer in particular.

‘trash. This too is trash. New Year’s Recipe? This too is trash.’

It was literally a feast of trash.

It’s not like looking for a needle in the sand, it’s like looking for a treasure among the trash.

“Hmm….”

As I was checking the items one by one, the old man opened his eyes and looked at me.

Why are you doing that? Has the crazy old man gone senile?

I ignored the hot gaze and continued looking for the item.

After searching through antiques for about 30 minutes, I found something.

────[ Hell’s Bastard Summoning Contract ]────

▶ Grade: Best

▶ It is a summoning contract containing the magical power of hell. Although the quality of the summoners is poor, the engraved magic itself is ultra-high magic, making it a top-class contract.

▶ You can summon and contract with the idiots who are treated as a nuisance in hell.

-────────────

What is this vaguely good or bad item?

I was curious about the summoning from hell, so I picked it up and checked it, and it turned out to be a damn summoning contract.

“This is ridiculous.”

I was so dumbfounded that I forgot the old man was there and started talking to myself.

Fortunately, the old man didn’t care much. It seems like he got some mental training by meeting crazy people while running an antique store.

‘Oh, this sucks.’

headsman. Sad complex. Although these words are very annoying, it is a top-class summoning book.

There is something that stimulates a man’s heart.

‘No, now I have to find something more tangible.’

I forced my eyes away from the [ Hell’s Bastard Summoning Contract ] and looked around at other products.

“….”

*

“That’s a good choice. I don’t know what that scroll is, but I bought it ten years ago from a man with a robe all over his body. I hope it will be helpful to you.”

“Yes, yes. Have a hard time.”

shit. I screamed.

[ Hell’s Bastard Summoning Contract ]!

I don’t know what it is, but it’s cool!

I was so excited to write the summons that I immediately ran to the dormitory.

Rattling!

After confirming that the dormitory door was locked, I took out the summons I had been carrying in my chest.

I placed the summoning scroll on the floor and slowly infused it with mana.

Shuuuung-

Light pours out from the summoning scroll and fills the room.

I closed my eyes because of the light, and when I opened them, something appeared in front of me.

————————–

[ Hell’s Bastard Summoning Contract ]

Are you the one who summoned the bastards from hell?

Choose one of the four bastards.

1. Lucifer, the devil butcher who is crazy about human flesh

2. Hell Academy Ada Bomber Gold Sun Incubus

3. F-class mercenary for 20 years. Centaur, the strength of an old man with 100 battles and defeats

4. Succubus, a 50-year-old spinster spider web weaver

“…What the fuck is this?”

A system window-like option appeared before my eyes.
