“My daughter. Wouldn’t it be better to take a private plane right now? It’s annoying and there’s a chance of an accident….”

“Father, how about buying an entire plane to make Alice’s trip comfortable?”

“Should I do that now?”

“…Please both of you stop.”

“….”

After arriving at the airport.

I laughed out loud while listening to the conversation between Isaac and Irene.

It seemed like this.

Is there any way that those people would just let Ellis go?

Isaac and Irene were holding Ellis with faces on the verge of tears, and it was a frustrating sight to see.

“Honey, stop now. Irene, you stop too.”

“Uhm, okay….”

“… all right.”

Fortunately, Sophia, who came with us, was at least normal.

Mediating between Isaac and Irene is the perfect example of a mother.

“Have a nice trip, Ellis. Everyone is doing this because they love you, so don’t worry too much.”

“Ugh. I know.”

“Elise. Finally, my father’s heart….”

I felt like the conversation was going to be long, so I paused for a moment.

Honestly, it was fun once or twice, but it was boring to keep listening to.

Even if you’re an idiot, that’s too harsh.

That’s why Ellis hates it.

– When are we boarding the plane?

“Well, I think I’ll be on board in 30 minutes.”

I walked around the airport and talked to Liliana.

There is about an hour left until departure time, so we need to get ready quickly.

“Oh, I guess I should buy some presents for the kids.”

– Seup, how about buying some bread?

“Tell me about the delicious bread. Let’s buy it.”

I bought all of Liliana’s recommended menu items at a high-end bakery at the airport.

I also bought a high-quality packaging box with the magic of maintaining quality, so I will be able to eat it deliciously in Korea as well.

Besides that, my hands were full after purchasing accessories and other gifts to give to other heroines.

– Let’s go now!

“huh.”

When I finished shopping and returned to my original place, it seemed like Ellis had finished greeting me.

“I’ll go now.”

“Elise. If you’re having a hard time, please contact me at any time. Understood?”

“Well, my daughter… will you come during vacation too? Dad will still be waiting….”

“Yes, of course. But now I really have to go.”

I shook my head as I looked at Isaac, who was still doing that.

Next to Ellis, who answered in annoyance, Irene was also seen.

‘Today is the last day with Irene.’

I gave him my contact information, but today is the last time I see him face to face.

“…!”

At that moment, I made eye contact with Irene, who was looking in my direction.

When I smiled lightly and said hello, Irene blinked and averted her eyes from me.

Should I go say hello too?

I still have to say hello to the guild leader anyway.

I should thank you for taking care of my convenience for a week.

“Guild leader.”

“Hmm… Um? What is it? Lee Ho-yeon.”

“I came to say hello. Thank you for the week. To you, Deputy Guild Leader.”

“Ugh. No. Hoenn-kun had a hard time too.”

“Well… yes, I had a hard time. I don’t like it though.”

“Honey, why are you doing this again? Huh?”

I left Isaac grumbling and said hello to Irene.

“Thank you, Irene, too. You took care of me in many ways.”

“… huh.”

Irene greeted lightly and then looked away.

It looks like he doesn’t really want to continue the conversation.

Well, that goes for me too.

★Heroine status window

[Irene]

─[Likeability: 30] (+0.2)

─[Liberty: 50]

─[Appetite: 40]

─[Fatigue: 40]

Current status: Is it okay if I stay with Ellis… . After all, I have to protect… .

Perhaps because he broke off his relationship with Ellis, his favorability rating rose to 30.

If this is the case, won’t I be contacted soon?

I paused for a moment and waited for Ellis to finish her greeting, and soon after she finished greeting me, she approached me.

“Sorry, I waited, right?”

“It’s okay. I guess everyone likes you a lot.”

“The problem is that it’s annoying.”

Ellis and I headed to the boarding gate to board the plane.

*

– Dear guests, we have arrived in Korea. After the plane comes to a complete stop… .

“…Is it already here?”

I looked at the clock and opened my eyes wide.

I don’t think it was even two hours since I got on the plane, but the announcements started playing.

“Didn’t you even look at the timetable?”

“Yeah. Because it’s annoying.”

“….”

The time is now 4 PM.

I definitely got on the plane in the morning, but when I got off, it was afternoon.

I feel like I’m wasting time.

We packed our bags and prepared to get off the plane.

It was a little complicated because there was so much to take care of, but I still felt at ease with the thought of going home.

“Be careful what you do outside.”

“huh?”

At that time, Ellis said something strange.

What do you mean, be careful?

“Watch out for what?”

“There will be a lot of people.”

“Wasn’t there much at the French airport?”

Strangely enough, no one recognized Ellis at the French airport.

Even though it was early in the morning, it was still true.

Based on the setting, Ellis must have been as popular as a celebrity, but did no one know about it due to the Iris Guild’s information crackdown?

Then you won’t know that we’re getting off in Korea.

“You’ll know when you get out. Be careful and do well.”

When I came outside and tilted my head at Ellis’ words, it was only then that I understood what she meant.

– Why are there so many people?!

“….”

I don’t understand either.

Was I this famous?

Click- Click-

The airport was full of people.

From reporters pointing cameras… Even people who seem to be my fan club.

The reason I think it was a fan club was simple.

[Genius wizard Lee Ho-yeon’s fan club.]

[Welcome Hoyeon Lee’s return.]

It was clearly written that it was a fan club.

– Fan club? Do you have a fan club?!

“What… is there a fan club that I don’t know about?”

Liliana asked in surprise.

But this time, I was surprised too.

I often searched my name on the Internet, and if I didn’t know it, where on earth was it hiding?

Is this a dark fan club?

“…Why do I have fans?”

“That’s amazing, Mr. Genius Wizard.”

“No, I have fans, but why don’t you have fans?”

Isn’t it normal for pretty girls to have fans?

Why does a guy like me have a fan club?

“I’m in France. I’m going back to France when I graduate from Victoria Academy anyway, so it’s normal that I don’t have any fans in Korea.”

“Oh, I see… But why didn’t I see it in France?”

“Well, I guess I didn’t know because it was morning.”

– There’s a fan club that I don’t even have… .

Liliana muttered in shock.

It’s kind of a burden.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen reporters like this in person.

Click- Click-

I walked towards the airport exit while listening to the annoying shutter sound.

There were so many people crowding around that there were guards blocking the road, and I felt like I was a real celebrity.

Sigh-

“Cadet Ho-yeon Lee! I would like to interview you about the centaur captured in France!”

“Please say something about the Victoria Academy preferential treatment controversy!”

Wow, it’s noisy.

As I passed right next to the reporters, I frowned because of the noise, and suddenly I felt a strange touch on my arm.

Ellis grabbed my arm.

It wasn’t enough for Ellis to just grab her arm, so she naturally folded her arms.

Why is he doing something strange again?

I asked, lowering my voice.

“Elise. What’s wrong?”

“This is good manners when men and women enter the country together. Do you live without even watching the news?”

“… is it?”

If you think about it, you always have your arms crossed at awards ceremonies or something like that. I guess it’s similar to that.

I didn’t know.

“Oppa! I’m a fan! Aaaa!”

Do celebrities feel this way?

I wasn’t nervous, but it felt a little burdensome because people were only looking at me.

Click- Click-

– Hey, these two are arm in arm?! take a picture!

– brother! brother!! What is that bitch!!!

And, as I walked with my arms crossed, I kept hearing strange things.

Is your reaction too strong for manners?

“Hey. Are you sure you’re crossing your arms? You’re lying.”

“…….”

Ellis was turning his head to me.

If you see your shoulders shaking, you might be holding back laughter.

“Ugh….”

I was fooled again.

I was thinking about unwrapping it now, but the pictures were already taken.

There will be an article coming out soon.

‘What if other women see it?’

I don’t know.

Even then, I said I was deceived.

Because there were so many crises, this did not even feel like a crisis.

Instead, I walked closer to Ellis.

“what are you doing?”

“I’m just going to stick close and go.”

“… let go.”

Perhaps because she was embarrassed to be so close to each other, Ellis kept her distance from me.

“Are you embarrassed of me?”

“No, there’s no need to stick to it like this…!”

I found Alice’s reaction amusing, so I clung closer to her.

Why are you embarrassed because you started first and then went up a notch?

The clothes of Ellis and I, who were trying to get closer, were rubbing against each other.

It seems like he was rather embarrassed because he was so close to the reporters even though they were right next to him.

“Cadet Lee Ho-yeon! Please say something!”

“What is your relationship with Cadet Ellis!”

“I told you not to…!”

“You started first.”

We passed the reporters.

The more I got along with Ellis, the more people in the fan club screamed at me, but what can I do?

It’s strange that there are so many women but there is a fan club.

I need to make them go to someone other than me.

I didn’t mind the reporter’s presence and clung to Ellis more, but soon I felt a strange feeling in my pocket.

A feeling of something missing.

When I unconsciously lowered my gaze, I saw a black cloth lying on the floor.

“uh?”

I stopped walking without realizing it when I saw Liliana’s panties on the floor.

No, fuck.

Why is this here?

I definitely stuffed it in my pants yesterday… .

‘for a moment.’

I remembered.

Yesterday, Liliana and I stayed up late at night unpacking our luggage, took off our pants, and fell asleep, but I put them back on in the morning, forgetting that I had panties in them.

I forgot about it because it was just for a quick prank, and I didn’t even know it was in my pocket because it was a small panty.

“What is that? A handkerchief?”

“Cadet Lee Ho-yeon! Just one word please!”

“Are you sure it’s not panties?”

Reporters nearby checked her panties.

Fortunately, there was a guard so I didn’t seem to notice that it was panties, but sadly, Ellis was standing right next to me.

“and….”

Ellis opened her mouth, looking back and forth between the panties on the floor and me.

Normally, I would have criticized it, asking where this trash was, but I guess I forgot because it was so ridiculous.

‘Let’s move on naturally.’

I quickly organized my thoughts.

Actually what… It’s not a very strange situation.

You haven’t done anything illegal, but you can just take your panties out of your pocket, right?

First, you have to pick up your panties.

Even though I thought about it a lot, the actual time only passed by a few seconds.

I need to get it before the reporters take pictures.

I bent down to pick up my panties.

However, there was a hand that took the panties off faster than my hand.

“Ellis?”

Ellis grabbed my panties and glanced at the reporters.

what.

Why are you doing that?

“Cadet Lee Ho-yeon! Please tell me about the item that came out of your pocket!”

“What is your relationship with Cadet Ellis!”

Ellis, who saw the reporters still eagerly pressing their microphones, smiled slightly, crossed my arms tightly, and whispered to me.

“… Come pick it up at my house.”

Ellis stuffed Liliana’s panties into her pocket, uncrossed her arms, and rushed forward.

It was my first time seeing him run so hard.

– what! Why are you taking my panties with you? Grab that!

Liliana screamed and trembled, and I sighed as I watched Ellis run away.

What should I do if you leave like that? .
