“… Ugh. Now that I’m done with it, I feel embarrassed.”

Hoyeon Lee walked down the hallway of the hospital room and scratched her head.

Hoyeon Lee, who had sent Liliana and the others away, was returning to the hospital room.

… As expected, hugging was too cringy.

I didn’t hear anything particularly strange, but it bothered me for no reason.

Besides, I was embarrassed that everyone was smiling happily.

I need to maintain my manly demeanor. hmm.

Should I be more careful with my words and actions from now on?

“But… it worked out well, so it’ll be okay.”

Lee Ho-yeon quenched her appetite and returned to the hospital room.

The hospital room wasn’t empty for that long, but Imsol was sleeping, so of course the barrier was in place.

“You’re still not up.”

Hoyeon Lee approached Imsol’s bed.

My heart rises every time Imsol, who is sleeping with a comfortable expression, takes a deep breath.

Baek Ah-young said she’s okay, so I’m not worried, but I hope she wakes up as soon as possible.

‘But isn’t it a cliché to pretend to sleep in this case?’

Imsol shakes his head subtly when touched, but eventually spreads his legs because he can’t bear the good feeling… It seemed like quite a bit of fun.

cook. cook.

Pat pat pat.

“As expected, reality is harsh.”

However, no matter how many parts of the body were stabbed, nothing happened.

Lee Ho-yeon lay down on the bed with regret.

It is said that natural healing power is good, but stability must be a priority for a quick recovery.

The devil he knows, Lucifer, is very belligerent.

In fact, he rushed at Liliana as soon as he met her, so there’s no telling when a fight might break out in the future.

Poor condition must be shaken off quickly.

Hoyeon Lee lay down on the bed and started the smartwatch.

There was a lot to think about, but for now, I thought I would at least check the news.

“As expected, there’s an uproar.”

Sparring between himself and Im Sol.

Anyone could see that it was full-scale training. Of course, it must have become quite a hot topic on the Internet.

There were many reporters in the auditorium, so the article may have already been published.

[Generation change between genius wizard Lim Sol and genius wizard Lee Ho-yeon? [Imsol’s attempt to organize ranks under the pretense of training]

[Academy Chairman. It was revealed that it was just a sparring between priests.]

[Why are teachers and students at odds? Exclusive interview with a member of the Wizarding Society.]

[Imsol Wizard who keeps cadet Lee Ho-yeon’s tremendous growth in check… .]

“Do the damn thing.”

How do these guys produce nonsense every day?

Prejudice against the profession is building up because of a few irresponsible people.

Hoyeon Lee shut down the smartwatch, lay down on the bed, and covered her eyes with her hands.

‘… Should I ask Irene for that?’

The Korean branch of the Iris Guild is quite well established, collaborating with Victoria Academy.

It would be easy to publish articles that are friendly to me.

“Wait a minute. Think about it. I haven’t even said thank you yet.”

Irene saved Rebecca and her group. I was planning on saying thank you, but I passed out after sparring.

It was to deliver Chiron’s message, but in the end, everyone was able to survive thanks to Irene.

“Let’s take care of everything now.”

Hoyeon Lee started the smart watch and sent a text message to Irene.

– Me: Irene. I have a favor to ask… .

“Um… I think it would be better to do it over the phone.”

Lee Ho-yeon thought as she touched the keyboard to send a message.

Anyway, I’m just saying thank you and asking for an additional request, but I guess it’s a bit weird to do it via text message.

It wasn’t that he didn’t have a good relationship with Irene, but he was too stiff.

Hoyeon Lee turned off the text message window and immediately called Irene.

ddu… ddu…

Dang.

A short signal rang, and Irene’s voice was heard through the smartwatch.

– hello? What is it, Lee Ho-yeon? Are you awake?

“Yes, Irene. I came to my senses a little while ago.”

– I’m glad. But what happened? It’s been a while since I called.

“I just called because it occurred to me.”

– okay? I thought you were asking for help with public opinion work.

“… I would really appreciate it if you could help me with that too.”

– Pfft, I knew that.

Hoyeon Lee smiled bitterly at Irene’s laughter.

As expected, he is from an information guild, so he is quick-witted. You already know everything.

– Is it okay if I take down the bad article with Professor Lim Sol?

“Yes. Thank you for always helping me.”

– It’s okay because it’s not that hard. Is that the end of the matter?

“Ah. I also wanted to say thank you.”

– thanks?

“Irene saved Scarlett and her group from being attacked. Thank you so much.”

– iced coffee. You mean that thing? no. Because I was lucky enough to get it.

“But we have to be sure. If Irene wasn’t there, we would have been in big trouble. Just thinking about it makes me dizzy. Thank you so much.”

– … … Umm. That’s right.

Hoyeon Lee suddenly sensed a strange atmosphere flowing through him.

what? Irene’s voice changed.

Did you just say something wrong?

When Lee Ho-yeon was feeling confused. Irene continued.

– I understand, but it feels strange when I actually get thanked.

“yes?”

– I don’t know how to express it. Should I say that I feel like an outsider protecting someone precious to me? It seems like they pay more attention to that. Ah, isn’t this what it feels like… ? hmm… no. Just pretend you didn’t hear what I just said.

“uh….”

Hoyeon Lee closed her mouth and thought about it.

She just expressed her gratitude for saving her precious person, but could it be possible for another heroine to feel that way?

Of course, it is questionable whether Irene had that much affection for him, but he was not tactful enough to ask that now.

Maybe it even represents Ellis’s position.

I don’t know how to react here.

Hoyeon Lee didn’t think too deeply and just said what came to mind.

“I understand your feelings, but I would have been grateful even if Rebecca had saved Irene. Irene is also important to you, so don’t worry.”

– Don’t say anything strange. I’m not worried.

“Still, thank you for being honest, Irene. I’ll be more careful in the future.”

– I don’t know. anyway… I’ll hang up when I’m done with my business!

Irene’s voice seemed like she didn’t want to continue this conversation and wanted to end the call right away.

Hoyeon Lee, who still had something to say, desperately tried to stop Irene.

“Wait a minute. Just a minute! Irene, I have one more thing to say.”

– What?

“Chiron is still in the French Iris Guild, right?

– huh. I’m still working as an instructor at the Iris Guild.

“Then, please make a place to talk to me as soon as possible.”

Without Liliana’s memories, Chiron and Albedo would be the ones who know the most information about Lucifer.

I thought about having Irene or another guild member hear it and pass it on to me, but I think there would be less distortion of the information if I asked directly.

– The connection itself can be made right now. Just wait a few minutes.

“No. I’m currently hospitalized… I’ll come to your house after I’m discharged.”

I haven’t come to my senses yet, but Im Sol is sitting next to me.

I didn’t want to have conversations about Lucifer or hell in the hospital room.

– okay. I’ll prepare that too.

“Yes. Thank you always, Irene.”

Hoyeon Lee hung up the phone with a satisfied smile.

After the three of us spent time with Ellis, Irene became much more compliant.

Aside from being jealous earlier, I think he’s cute in his own way.

“Uh, um… Ugh….”

“uh?”

Jump up.

Lee Ho-yeon, who heard Im Sol’s groaning, got up from the bed immediately.

In the bed next to him, Imsol was writhing with his eyes closed.

Lee Ho-yeon looked at Im Sol’s face.

His expression didn’t look uncomfortable.

It doesn’t seem like he’s sick, so maybe he’s about to wake up soon.

Lee Ho-yeon thought as she looked into Im Sol’s face.

‘… ‘What will I ask you to do when you wake up?’

Her sleeping face is also very pretty.

As a man, I can’t help but feel strange if I think I can do whatever I want with this person.

‘As expected, first with the mouth… No, you always gave blowjobs. It’s a bit weird to do it straight to a girl, um… Are there any other special experiences?’

When Lee Ho-yeon was seriously thinking while looking at Im Sol’s face.

Imsol slowly opened his eyes.

“…ah.”

I feel dizzy.

My whole body felt heavy, as if it were being pressed down by steel.

However, it only felt that way, and thanks to Baek A-young’s treatment, there were no scars left on her body.

Perhaps the muscles or magic circuits are in a state of shock.

“Huh? Professor Sol-i! Are you awake?”

Imsol looked up at the familiar voice.

He sees his student, Lee Ho-yeon, blinking and looking at him.

He smiled when our eyes met.

“Our student….”

“Yes, that’s right, Professor. Now, look at my hands. How many numbers does this look like?”

Okay. Okay.

Lee Ho-yeon waved her hand left and right with her index and middle fingers pinned.

Seeing that scene, Imsol burst out laughing without realizing it.

“two.”

“Oh. Fortunately, my head is fine.”

“Your body is also normal.”

Sigh.

Imsol forced his squirming body to move and placed his back against the back of the bed.

“Don’t overexert yourself and just lie down.”

“I said it’s okay.”

Lee Ho-yeon looked at Im Sol and shook her head.

Who do I resemble to be so stubborn?

Imsol looked healthy with no aftereffects. It still looks a little unstable, but it will be okay if you rest a little.

As expected, it was good to trust Baek A-young.

‘I’m glad you look healthy… .’

Hoyeon Lee was feeling regretful.

It was fortunate that there were no aftereffects, but Imsol’s condition was very much the same as usual.

Every time she went to visit Lim Sol’s lab, she continued to behave somewhat indifferently.

Perhaps she was trying to maintain her distance.

Im Sol’s intention to allow everything only to a man stronger than her.

Hoyeon Lee respected that.

‘That doesn’t mean I wanted a huge change in attitude right away… .’

Isn’t this too similar?

It was the same as before he won the sparring match.

Slightly avoiding eye contact. Are you embarrassed?

It may change a little bit.

As I thought about Imsol, the thoughts I had been avoiding on purpose crept up.

‘You can’t do it because it’s not your best. What if I say I can’t admit it because I let my guard down?’

It’s not that I haven’t thought about that.

From Im Sol’s perspective, he may have felt that victory was taken away from him when he let his guard down for a moment while caring for his student.

Or she may think that the only winner is a man who surpasses her in all areas.

In that case, Hoyeon Lee inevitably needed time.

‘If I say this match is invalid… What should I do?’

Ugh.

Lee Ho-yeon groaned and worried.

He had poured everything into this sparring, so this was an extremely important matter.

“…?”

Meanwhile, Im Sol tilted his head as he looked at Lee Ho-yeon, who was groaning.

Why is my student suddenly acting like that?

However, since Ho-yeon Lee wasn’t acting strangely for a day or two, Im Sol didn’t care.

All you have to do is say what you have to say.

Im Sol opened her mouth as she saw Lee Ho-yeon biting her lip.

“Hoyeon.”

“yes?”

“Would you like to change your mind after a long time?”

“… a change of pace?”

Imsol smiled brightly.

Lee Ho-yeon blinked at Im Sol’s unexpected words.
