Chapter 48 The Ex-Girlfriend Who Regained Everything

Hunters losing their abilities is a very common occurrence.

Accidents inside gates, personal trauma, or contracts with something, and so on.
Hunters can easily lose their abilities for many reasons.

In contrast, regaining abilities is truly like a miracle.

An almost impossible event, but one that can happen in truly chosen cases.

That’s what regaining abilities is like.

S-class Rank 1 Yoo Eun-ha, who was called [Frozen Queen].

She was able to regain her abilities after about a month of having lost them.

At first, she was uncertain, but the more she tested, the more she felt that all her powers had returned.

Her current self was no different from the former [Frozen Queen] Yoo Eun-ha.

It wasn’t a partial recovery or some ambiguous state.

It was the complete revival of the [Frozen Queen].

“Haha… Now life is worth living.”

Yoo Eun-ha’s original 50-pyeong large house.

Having returned there, Yoo Eun-ha enjoyed a bath, then threw herself on the soft bed she used to use, smiling gleefully.

Her body was releasing all its tension, feeling how long it had been since she’d been on such a soft bed.

“Haha…”

After regaining her abilities, it didn’t take Yoo Eun-ha long to recover what she had lost.

Yoo Eun-ha, though widely regarded as unpleasant, was someone whose abilities were truly definite and recognized.

When she lost her abilities, retaliation was possible, but now that she had regained them, further retaliation was impossible.

S-class Rank 1, Yoo Eun-ha’s value is far more extraordinary than one might think.

Although nominally classified in the same S-class, Yoo Eun-ha actually possessed power on a different level from other S-class hunters.

How strong is that…

Yoo Eun-ha is so strong that even if S-class Rank 2 through S-class Rank 11 all attacked her at once, victory against her couldn’t be guaranteed.

Because of this, Yoo Eun-ha is quite special.

Yoo Eun-ha alone easily surpasses the military power of an entire nation.

That’s why it doesn’t matter if the world turns its back on her.

Yoo Eun-ha is the kind of being who wouldn’t care at all even if the world abandoned her.

Because she is such a person, the Hunter Association had no choice but to lower its tail to Yoo Eun-ha.

To somehow keep Yoo Eun-ha in the country.

The Hunter Association, which had been retaliating against Yoo Eun-ha, stopped all of that.

Upon hearing the news that she had regained her abilities, they released all the seized assets that had been placed on her.

They released everything—her house, car, bank accounts.

They even reinstated her as S-class Rank 1.

And on top of that, a sincere apology.

Now Yoo Eun-ha was able to regain money, power, and honor—everything.

“I’m happy…”

Yoo Eun-ha had no particular desire to leave the country, so she accepted it all.

Although she disliked the Hunter Association, considering what she had done to them in the past, it wasn’t incomprehensible.

Yoo Eun-ha was satisfied just with the promise that there would be no more fighting.

Yoo Eun-ha rubbing her body on the soft bed.

She was so happy in this moment, right now.

Thinking about the times when she drank cheap soju every day and slept on the streets during cold winter nights, it truly embodied the saying that joy comes after hardship.

Now Yoo Eun-ha didn’t have to starve or sleep on the cold, hard ground.

Her body and mind were comfortable.

She was full and warm.

This precious sensation.

She was now enjoying this sensation.

Ding dong.

While Yoo Eun-ha was rolling around on the bed, the doorbell to her house rang.

It seemed a visitor had arrived.

“Sigh. How annoying.”

And Yoo Eun-ha could roughly guess who this visitor was.

From Yoo Eun-ha’s perspective, it was obviously someone she really didn’t want to see.

“Eun-ha…!”

“Why are you here?”

“Well, I came to congratulate Eun-ha on regaining her abilities.”

Yoo Eun-ha opened the door and let out a small sigh at the fact that her prediction wasn’t wrong.

The person visible at the door was a handsome man of tall stature, the son of Jooyoung Construction’s chairman, CEO Ahn Joo-young.

CEO Ahn Joo-young had come to her house with a bouquet of flowers.

“Not interested.”

Yoo Eun-ha, feeling irritated at the sight, tried to close the door.

“Haha… Eun-ha. Would you like to have a meal together? To celebrate the return of your abilities.”

“No thanks. Stop coming here from now on.”

“Wait, let’s just eat. Please.”

CEO Ahn Joo-young caught the door and tried his best to smile and improve Yoo Eun-ha’s mood.

“Haah…”

But such behavior only made Yoo Eun-ha more angry.

Yoo Eun-ha’s patience reached its limit.

“Excuse me.”

Yoo Eun-ha grabbed CEO Ahn Joo-young’s neck tightly.

And while exerting her ice ability, she began to strangle his neck just enough not to kill him.

“Gack gack….”

CEO Ahn Joo-young began to writhe in pain.

“Ugh…Eun-ha… le..let…”

“Are you that happy now that I’ve regained my abilities? Really, this guy and that guy…”

“Heck…”

The whites of Ahn Joo-young’s eyes began to show, and just before he was about to faint, Yoo Eun-ha released his neck.

Sitting on the floor, CEO Ahn Joo-young was gasping for breath with a sense of relief that he was alive.

“Don’t come here anymore. Next time, I’ll really kill you.”

Yoo Eun-ha slammed the door shut, leaving CEO Ahn Joo-young behind.

“Phew…”

Yoo Eun-ha returned to her bed.

And while she tried to enjoy her rest once more, Yoo Eun-ha’s expression was very gloomy.

“Liars…”

Before losing her abilities, Yoo Eun-ha was truly very popular and a woman loved by many people.

With her beautiful appearance, S-class Rank 1 abilities, wealth, and power—she had everything, so people overflowed around her.

CEO Ahn Joo-young just now was also one of those people to Yoo Eun-ha.

But all those people turned their backs on Yoo Eun-ha as soon as she lost her abilities, as easily as flipping a palm.

They didn’t consider at all how she had helped them when they were in trouble, and no one took care of Yoo Eun-ha after she lost her abilities.

Because if they helped Yoo Eun-ha, they would also face retaliation, no one was willing to help her at the cost of their own loss.

Yoo Eun-ha deeply realized during that month.

That the words of those people who acted as if they would give their liver and gallbladder to her were nothing but lies.

The claim that they liked Yoo Eun-ha herself regardless of her abilities was not true.

All of them were people who only liked Yoo Eun-ha’s abilities.

“Bat-like bastards…”

It had been just a month since Yoo Eun-ha regained her abilities.

During that month, many people came to see Yoo Eun-ha.

Yoo Eun-ha, having regained her abilities, is the most valuable woman in the world. Naturally, there were too many people who wanted Yoo Eun-ha.

They were people who came with thick skin, trying to somehow restore their relationship with Yoo Eun-ha.

Although Yoo Eun-ha roughly sent all those people away, she felt extremely irritated in her heart every time she saw them.

People who so callously abandoned her when she was in trouble, but now came looking for her when she regained her power—materialistic people, a disgusting sight like witnessing the ugliness of humanity.

“Every single one… they’re all the same.”

Yoo Eun-ha’s expression darkened even more.

The people who had been around her until now.

She was filled with irritation at the fact that all the people who had always treated Yoo Eun-ha with smiles were nothing but bat-like people.

But…

“No… not everyone is the same…”

Yoo Eun-ha shook her head.

Thinking about it, one person.

Only one person uniquely wasn’t a bat.

There was one person who had truly loved her.

There existed only one person who treated Yoo Eun-ha well regardless of whether she lost her abilities or not.

Lee Si-woo, the man Yoo Eun-ha had dated for 7 years.

Only her ex-boyfriend was the one who treated her kindly.

“…”

Yoo Eun-ha thought about Si-woo for a moment.

Whenever Si-woo met her while she was homeless on the streets, he treated her kindly.

He never ignored her when she showed signs of distress.

Looking at such a Si-woo, Yoo Eun-ha’s pride was hurt and she actually picked fights with him, but Si-woo just worried about her regardless.

Si-woo was always kind to her.

No matter what she did, Si-woo was someone who only thought of her.

Only Si-woo was unique.

“Haah… why am I thinking about him.”

Yoo Eun-ha shook her head back and forth.

Her relationship with Si-woo is already over.

After dumping him so heartlessly.

The reason Yoo Eun-ha dumped Si-woo, in fact, was that kindness.

While everyone worshipped and looked up to her, only Si-woo sent kindness without looking up to her.

She was a person of a different class from others, but Yoo Eun-ha dumped him because she disliked Si-woo, who didn’t worship her like that.

She disliked that kindness.

It was so irritating.

“…”

But ironically, Yoo Eun-ha began to miss that kindness.

Even Yoo Eun-ha herself didn’t know why she felt this way.

“Let’s not think about it.”

Yoo Eun-ha deliberately erased the memories of Si-woo from her mind.

So she lay back down on the bed and closed her eyes.

But for some reason, she felt lonely and opened her eyes again.

“Wait…”

Yoo Eun-ha hesitated for a moment, sitting on the bed.

“Just for a moment… should I go see his face at least?”

Yoo Eun-ha got up from the bed.

And after getting dressed, she went outside.

Yoo Eun-ha became slightly curious about how her ex-boyfriend was living.
