Chapter 53 The Emotion of Longing for an Ex-Girlfriend

Yoo Eun-ha.

It wasn’t very difficult for her to find where her ex-boyfriend Lee Si-woo worked.
This was because she knew about [Hunter S], a rising new guild that was currently trending.

She could easily find out about Si-woo, who was the guild master of [Hunter S], without much effort.

‘So he’s a guild master…’

At first, Yoo Eun-ha thought there might be something to the title of guild master, but she didn’t give it much thought because it was a small-medium guild.

Rather, it was so insignificant that she couldn’t even find words to describe it.

In fact, Si-woo was a man who had handled practical affairs at [Frozen Heart], the largest major guild.

That such a Si-woo was now working at this small-medium guild could honestly be considered a step down.

‘And yet he dared to pretend to be well-off in front of me…’

Yoo Eun-ha snickered.

Being the guild master of such a guild and trying to help her by offering money as if showing off or doing her a favor.

It couldn’t help but be an absurd situation.

Yoo Eun-ha had been worried.

After breaking up with her, she wondered if he might have become too successful and secured a position at another major guild.

But that was an unfounded concern.

There was nothing impressive.

That he was running this small medium-sized guild—she was glad he wasn’t as successful as she had thought.

Thinking that Si-woo was indeed someone who couldn’t function without her.

Yoo Eun-ha thought that Si-woo should belong to her.

‘When I think about when he worked under me…’

Yoo Eun-ha briefly recalled the past.

The image of Si-woo working at her guild…

The most brilliant and happiest time for Si-woo, who was active as the secretary of the guild master at [Frozen Heart]…

Such… a sight…?

No such image particularly came to mind.

Because every day Si-woo lived overwhelmed by work at [Frozen Heart].

The reason was mostly because of Yoo Eun-ha.

‘But… thinking about it, I didn’t treat him that well.’

In fact, Yoo Eun-ha knows that she didn’t treat Si-woo well.

Saying she would separate public and private matters, she didn’t particularly give Si-woo much money despite their romantic relationship.

And even without receiving much money, Si-woo worked hard.

Thinking about it… she thinks she was a bit heartless.

Yoo Eun-ha tried to reflect briefly but…

‘What does it matter?’

She shook her head and dismissed the thought.

Si-woo should be grateful for dating a beautiful woman like her.

It would be really impudent if he received a lot of money on top of that.

For that reason, Yoo Eun-ha had deliberately reduced the money going to Si-woo.

How much money she gave to Si-woo was her own choice.

That was natural.

Yoo Eun-ha didn’t reflect on those aspects.

Anyway.

That’s no longer important now.

‘This is it.’

Yoo Eun-ha arrived at the [Hunter S] building.

A two-story officetel on the outskirts of downtown.

She had heard this was [Hunter S].

‘…’

Although she found the building, Yoo Eun-ha hesitated to go in.

‘But… why did I come here…’

Thinking about it, she couldn’t recall the reason for seeking out Si-woo, so she thought about what the reason might be for a moment.

No matter how she thought about it, Yoo Eun-ha, who had regained all her abilities, would have no reason to come to such a shabby place…

‘Am I… perhaps longing for him?’

As she was thinking, there was a feeling that briefly came to mind.

This tight feeling in her chest.

She came to the thought that perhaps, perhaps she was seeking Si-woo now because she missed him.

‘No… absolutely not.’

Yoo Eun-ha shook her head with an irritated expression.

She could never be longing for Si-woo.

She has no regrets about dumping her ex-boyfriend who was below her level.

She absolutely… never does anything that would hurt her pride.

That’s what Yoo Eun-ha is.

‘Yes… I came here to mock him.’

Yoo Eun-ha didn’t acknowledge the reason that she was longing for him.

So as she thought of another reason, she came up with one.

The reason she came here was to show Si-woo that she had regained all her abilities.

There could be no other reason. There must only be this reason.

‘I wonder how he’ll react when I tell him I’ve regained my abilities?’

Thinking this, Yoo Eun-ha’s expression became very giddy.

Yoo Eun-ha who has now regained her abilities, Yoo Eun-ha who has found money, power, honor, everything.

She was so curious about what reaction Si-woo would show seeing such a Yoo Eun-ha.

Si-woo, who had pitied her when she was going around like a beggar not long ago.

But now Yoo Eun-ha has regained everything.

Of course, Si-woo would show some kind of reaction to such a self.

Would he now look at her with envious eyes again? Yoo Eun-ha was lost in such imagination.

‘Hehehe…’

Such a reaction would be very enjoyable.

Would he ask to date her again, using the excuse that he treated her well in the past?

Or would he ask for money?

Any reaction would be fine.

Yoo Eun-ha wanted to see any reaction.

‘Well… I could grant him something special.’

And when he expresses such emotions, Yoo Eun-ha plans to be generous this time.

Normally, she would never grant someone like Si-woo anything because he doesn’t match her level.

This time, she might especially date him again.

Because Si-woo is her faithful, loyal dog…!

‘He was warm…’

The loyal dog who uniquely treated her warmly…

Yoo Eun-ha wanted to see such a Si-woo.

With such thoughts, Yoo Eun-ha opened the door.

And she could discover Si-woo.

“Huh? Eun-ha, what brings you here?”

“Long time no see.”

Si-woo appeared before her eyes.

Her ex-boyfriend Si-woo, who had dated her for 7 years, appeared.

Yoo Eun-ha couldn’t help but grin when she saw Si-woo.

“I’ve regained my abilities.”

And she confidently uttered the words.

That S-class Rank 1 Yoo Eun-ha had returned.

And as soon as she said it, she gauged Si-woo’s reaction.

Now… what kind of reaction would he show?

She hoped he would show a good reaction.

Yoo Eun-ha was so expectant at this moment.

Would he say something like ‘Really? Eun-ha. Can’t you please date me again? I’ve been good to you all this time.’?

If he says such words, she wouldn’t mind granting him.

Because I am generous…

Yoo Eun-ha thought that, but…

“Oh? I heard. Congratulations.”

Si-woo just congratulated her without any change in expression, tilting his head.

“… Is that all?”

“Hmm…? Yeah…”

Yoo Eun-ha waited for the next words, but no next words came.

Looking at Si-woo’s expression, it was a face of complete disinterest.

Because of that, Yoo Eun-ha was left slightly dumbfounded.

“Huh?”

“I’m asking if that’s all your reaction.”

“Umm… I really congratulate you.”

“…”

Despite the fact that S-class Rank 1 Yoo Eun-ha had regained her abilities.

Moreover, despite the fact that the abilities of Si-woo’s ex-girlfriend, whom he had loved for 7 years, had returned, that was his only reaction.

Yoo Eun-ha couldn’t accept it.

So she challenged Si-woo with an incredulous expression.

But still, all she got was an extremely indifferent response.

“By the way, Eun-ha. What brings you here?”

“Uh… uh…? Umm…”

Furthermore, Si-woo showed a reaction as if he didn’t understand why she was asking such a thing.

At that response, Yoo Eun-ha froze, not knowing what to say.

This was not in Yoo Eun-ha’s expectations.

She had wanted to receive some kind of emotion from Si-woo, but she hadn’t predicted this kind of extremely indifferent attitude.

It was as if we were now strangers, as if he was saying what does that have to do with me?

I’m his ex-girlfriend… why…?

That warm feeling she had felt from Si-woo was nowhere to be found now.

As if he no longer loves her…

As if he’s looking at an ordinary girl on the street…

“Hero, what’s going on?”

“Master, who came?”

“It’s nothing.”

While Yoo Eun-ha was momentarily blank with shock, two women came out from inside.

One was a therianthrope woman, one was the Saint Reytana.

Both were quite cute and beautiful women.

The two of them clung to Si-woo’s arms and looked at Yoo Eun-ha.

‘Who are these two women…? Why are they clinging to my ex-boyfriend?’

And seeing the two of them, Yoo Eun-ha felt a surge of anger for some reason.

That they would have such skinship with her ex-boyfriend felt very off-putting.

She thought it made no sense that they would do this when she was present.

“Who are they?”

So she demanded with fierce eyes.

Hoping that Si-woo would drive the two away.

In the past, when she gave him this look, Si-woo would immediately separate from whatever woman was beside him and rush to her.

So… this time too… Yoo Eun-ha wanted to see that reaction.

“Hm? They’re Reytana and An Se-ah. I got to know them while doing guild work.”

But she couldn’t see such a reaction from Si-woo.

“Eun-ha. Let’s have a meal sometime if you’re okay with it. I’m a bit busy right now. Take care.”

Far from driving them away, Si-woo was speaking as if she was a disturbance.

“Uh… okay…”

At that attitude, Yoo Eun-ha responded blankly.

And soon the door closed.

“…”

Yoo Eun-ha could only stand blank in front of the closed door for a while.

“This isn’t right…”

Yoo Eun-ha lingered in front of the door for a bit longer afterward.

It was because she wanted so badly to feel that warmth she had felt from Si-woo.

But she couldn’t.

All she could do now was go back the way she came.

With an empty heart, Yoo Eun-ha returned to her house where she had everything.
