“Are you still sweating?”

On the way back from the malatang restaurant, Kim Seong-ah had a worried look on her face.

This is because it was shocking to see her housemate sweating profusely even at the lowest level of spiciness.

“If I had known that I wouldn’t be able to eat something this spicy, I would have just asked to go.”

The woman who suggested marathon soup had a downcast look on her face.

He said he couldn’t eat spicy food, so he thought of a product like Nuclear Buldak, but when I heard the story, I heard that even Shin Ramyun was fatal to him.

“It’s okay. Because it tasted good. It was good because I could eat it with the ingredients I wanted.”

Making a ‘ss-‘ sound, he let his tongue cool in the cold night air.

“Next time, let’s go to a place that isn’t really spicy.”

Despite his words, Kim Seong-ah’s face did not soften at all.

“Okay, let’s go to a store with a lot of choices. …But, will your homeroom teacher be okay? All that hotness spilled out.”

I thought of Im Soo-ah receiving the red, oily soup of malatang with her body.

It wasn’t just a matter of simply throwing away the clothes, it was also possible to get burned.

I don’t know how her foot got tangled in a store where there was nothing to catch on, but Im Soo-ah, who had hot soup spilling on her chest, stamped her feet and made repeated groaning noises.

“I think it was a date, but it didn’t work out.”

He felt pity on the man’s thoughtful face that his long-awaited date had turned into a mess.

“It’ll be okay. 119 came quickly.”

Even though her homeroom teacher was injured, Kim Seong-ah had a grumpy attitude.

“Now that I think about it, how could it not be cured with magic?”

Kang In-ho said as if something suddenly occurred to him.

“…Oh, I forgot.”

Kim Seong-ah, who remained silent for a moment, turned her head to the other side and hid her expression.

“It’s a shame. Well, I guess I’ll be okay since I went to the hospital.”

“Right. Because it’s not our job.”

While crossing the traffic light, a couple coming from the opposite direction caught their eye.

They were a handsome, stylish couple, consisting of a tall man and a woman, and the way they held hands and talked was fitting.

The sight of the woman subtly leaning her head towards the man was even elegant.

Seongah Kim’s eyes followed them.

“Eight!”

As soon as she crossed the traffic light, she took action. It was hanging on his arm.

At first glance, it looked like a daughter who had been involved in an accident at an early age was walking affectionately with her father.

“Hey, what is it.”

He shook his arm as if it were annoying, but her hold on his arm was stronger and more persistent than he thought.

Embarrassment and embarrassment. Somewhere in between, the emotions hung heavily on Kang In-ho’s arm.

“Well, what do you think? Is it a sign of friendliness?”

“…Sure. Yes.”

He was about to say something but then closed his mouth.

It may be that he had the foresight to think that no matter what he said, he would be caught up in Kim Seong-ah’s logic.

“♬~”

Putting her arms close to her body, she hummed as if it felt good.

“I guess you really liked dinner? I see you feel good.”

“The score on the mock exam was good, the food was delicious… Anyway, I thought something would go well today.”

Seongah Kim’s humming continued until she entered the house.

***

D-28 until CSAT

The biggest and worst event of high school has passed the one-month mark.

Is it because the classroom window is open?

The temperature outside was getting colder, making the atmosphere in the classroom heavy and cold.

Maybe it’s not the window, though.

The scenery of recess has changed a lot.

Unlike the atmosphere at the beginning of the semester, when students went to the cafeteria or made small talk, most of them continued to study by sitting at their desks, maintaining the sense of class time.

Students who decided on a university early on or who had no intention of studying spent recess by sneaking out of class to catch their breath or lying down on their desks to sleep.

Kim Seong-ah’s homeroom teacher, Im Su-ah, tried to boost the students’ morale by saying, “Let’s end Yujong’s beauty.”

Kim Seong-ah laughed inwardly at the traces of bandages and ointment peeking out from inside her clothes as she talked about her daily life after the college entrance exam in a lively voice.

Because it was something refreshing.

Kim Seong-ah’s studies were progressing steadily.

Although there were still many shortcomings in order to reach grades 1 and 2, it was visible that the overall score was gradually increasing.

The reason for this remarkable achievement was that she was either naturally intelligent or that some kind of motivation acted on her.

And Kim Seong-ah thought that the latter was the cause.

“Uncle, you must have left.”

While she was going to the bathroom, she felt an unpleasant sensation as her arms grew.

He looked at the sky through the window in the hallway. Her housemate did not appear in the sky, but she saw it anyway.

He was steadily dealing with the evil forces.

[Mister, aren’t you sleepy?]

[It’s okay to take a nap.]

I took a nap, but why am I okay?

Kim Seong-ah was worried about her health as she was attacked more frequently than when she was working as a magical girl.

The period of raids, which usually occurred once every 3 or 4 days, was getting shorter. On some days, there may be more than two runs per day.

When I think of his dark circles under his eyes, I feel sorry for him and feel grateful at the same time.

[You only think about the CSAT for now.]

He served breakfast with a tired face and gave her another request.

I had to study hard for that too.

When class got boring or she felt sleepy, she thought of Kang In-ho.

Then, miraculously, I felt my concentration coming back.

“Once the college entrance exam is over… you can rest too.”

After the college entrance exam, she will become a magical girl and help him.

She hoped and hoped in her heart that the college entrance exam would come soon.

***

On my way home from school. As the days got shorter, the surroundings became dark.

She walked down a dark path.

“……”

Also, chicken skin appeared on my skin. An unpleasant wave also came.

“It’s not far away.”

Kang In-ho will arrive in less than 3 minutes.

She decided to go out to meet him, and turned to where she felt the waves.

Seongah Kim was able to reach the vacant lot after wandering around the dark alley for a while.

“Where is the enemy…?”

As I was looking around, I felt a presence above my head.

She hid herself in a dark place.

A tall man comes down from the sky. And Kang In-ho, wearing a mask, comes down at an appropriate distance.

Kim Seong-ah was not unfamiliar with tall men. This is the face I saw one day when I faced all the Four Heavenly Kings.

‘The last remaining Four Heavenly Kings.’

I thought I was going to end it with the Four Heavenly Kings, but there were no signs of battle anywhere.

Rather, it looks like they are talking to each other.

“See you again.”

“Do you want to go while you keep pestering me? What kind of guts did you have to come to me this time?”

“Haha, isn’t it the case that we can only meet for a special reason? Between us.”

The Four Heavenly Kings Crown laughed.

“What bullshit?”

Kang In-ho, who became sensitive due to lack of sleep, reacted sharply.

“No. Haha, are you doing well with the magical girl?”

“Why are you asking that?”

“No. I asked because I was curious. I just wondered if everything was going well.”

“You keep not knowing what I mean…”

“Now! Well, now that we have a general understanding of the situation, let’s meet again next time.”

“Suddenly appears and disappears without doing anything?”

“Well, there have to be days like this. Well then, that’s it.”

Crown shrugged.

As he flapped his cloak, Crown’s body became increasingly blurry.

Crown’s gaze, which slowly disappears, is briefly focused on the darkest corner of the alley.

When the crown that suddenly appeared suddenly disappeared, Kang In-ho made a blank expression as if he were a dog chasing a chicken and left the vacant lot.

A few ten minutes like that.

Kim Seong-ah, who was in the far corner of the alley, came out under the streetlight.

“…Uncle?”

Although they didn’t seem to be on good terms, Kim Seong-ah’s face hardened at the sight of the Four Heavenly Kings treating their colleagues in a strange way.
