Chapter 77 Plan Failed

One shot, two shots.

The alcohol, with eel as side dishes, was going down Si-woo’s throat smoothly.
And watching such Si-woo, Eun-ha slightly lifted the corners of her mouth.

The plan was progressing too smoothly to not be happy.

‘One bottle of soju and he’ll be wasted.’

Eun-ha knows Si-woo’s alcohol tolerance best.

Her ex-boyfriend Si-woo’s face flushes after just one shot of soju, and by the third shot he can’t keep his mind straight – that’s how weak his alcohol tolerance is.

Though he might not feel drunk himself, to people watching him he becomes a drunkard who can’t keep his mind straight at all.

Therefore, Eun-ha didn’t think about any flaws in her plan at all.

It was a simple plan of taking drunk Si-woo to a motel.

‘But… what is this exactly?’

However, the plan failed.

The soju had already easily passed three bottles and was now heading toward the tenth bottle.

Si-woo, who drank all ten bottles, didn’t show even a hint of intoxication.

As if he was someone who couldn’t get drunk at all.

‘Could he be throwing away the alcohol?’

So Eun-ha couldn’t help but be suspicious.

Could Si-woo be pretending to drink and throwing it away…?

Though Si-woo wasn’t that kind of person, it made enough sense to explain the current situation.

“Cheers.”

“Cheers.”

So when he took another drink, she watched Si-woo carefully.

Wondering if he might throw it away.

But he was definitely drinking the alcohol properly.

‘What exactly is this?’

Eun-ha couldn’t understand at all.

She tilted her head wondering why he wasn’t getting drunk even though he was definitely drinking.

‘Ah could he be drinking water?’

So she moved on to her next suspicion.

Could what’s in that soju bottle be water…?

It was a possibility that made enough sense.

“Here, take it. I’ll pour for you.”

“Okay.”

So this time she poured Si-woo the soju she had been drinking.

Eun-ha watched Si-woo expecting him to get drunk this time.

Since what she had been drinking was definitely alcohol.

‘What exactly is this?’

But still Si-woo didn’t show even a hint of intoxication.

She tried everything looking for other possibilities but Si-woo absolutely wouldn’t get drunk.

Eun-ha couldn’t help but panic at a situation she absolutely couldn’t understand.

Si-woo absolutely wouldn’t get drunk.

‘Haah… though I’m not getting drunk either…’

In such a situation, Eun-ha couldn’t help but get anxious.

Originally Eun-ha hardly gets drunk from alcohol.

She likes alcohol so much that even when homeless she would drink even if she didn’t eat.

So drinking about 10 bottles now wouldn’t make her drunk.

‘Let’s make a decisive move…!’

But she needs to settle this soon.

Eun-ha thought of one method.

That was to pretend to be drunk…!

And then take him to a motel that way.

— — —

On the table, the empty soju bottles had easily passed ten bottles at a rough count.

Too much soju for two people to drink.

But even after drinking such soju, I didn’t feel any intoxication.

‘Indeed there’s no taste at all.’

A body that purifies all poisons.

Though I don’t have much memory of drinking a lot since becoming the Hero, it seems the same even drinking a lot.

For me, alcohol was just bitter water.

I twirled the glass while making a rather bitter smile.

‘Come to think of it, I met Eun-ha because of alcohol.’

Alcohol seems to have had quite a lot of influence on my life.

In the past when I lost my parents, when I finished difficult hunter work driven solely by the determination to raise my younger sister.

There were times I soothed such sorrows that I couldn’t express to anyone by drinking alcohol.

Though I couldn’t drink well, somehow I still liked drinking.

And because of that, I happened to meet Eun-ha, an F-rank hunter.

Though I feel good about having the Hero’s body that removes all poisons.

Sometimes there are times I want to taste alcohol.

In that aspect, I do feel somewhat regretful.

‘By the way, what do I do about this now?’

But for now, rather than such sentiments, I need to figure out what to do about my drunk ex-girlfriend in front of me.

“Hey…! Si-woo…!!!!! You really!!!! Are you listening to me?”

“Yes, yes.”

“Hey!!!!! Are you listening?!!!!”

“Yes…”

“Heheheheh.”

“Yes.”

Originally I had drunk with Eun-ha in the past too, but Eun-ha was always strong with alcohol.

But it seems she definitely drank too much this time.

Looking at her eyes being half-focused, she clearly couldn’t keep her mind straight.

It seems it’s time to end this meal now.

“Eun-ha. Get a hold of yourself. Should I take you home?”

“…”

Eun-ha who had been muttering to herself collapsed on the table and started sleeping.

I shook such Eun-ha to wake her up, but she didn’t answer as if in deep sleep.

“Can’t be helped.”

I supported Eun-ha’s shoulder and left the store.

Though I could leave her here.

Still, it might be better to at least politely get her a taxi.

“I can catch a taxi here.”

I arrived at the taxi stand near the Hunter Association.

A taxi should come in about 10 minutes.

So while waiting leisurely like that.

“Si-woo.”

Suddenly Eun-ha who had been sleeping until just now called me.

“What?”

“Won’t you go to a motel?”

And she brought up somewhat familiar words.

“Hmm…”

“Let’s go to a motel. I want to have sex.”

I looked at Eun-ha’s face.

I saw her eyes were closed, and getting close, the smell of alcohol was strong.

‘Seems she’s quite drunk indeed.’

I smiled looking at such Eun-ha.

Right now Eun-ha probably doesn’t even know we broke up.

That’s why she’s saying such things.

“We broke up, what motel?”

I told thoroughly drunk Eun-ha.

We’re not in that kind of relationship anymore.

Come to think of it, I might have gone if I had gotten drunk, but anyway I have no intention of going.

“There, taxi’s here.”

I put Eun-ha in the taxi like that and we parted ways.

“…”

Though for some reason Eun-ha slightly looked back at me.

Must be my imagination?

‘By the way, is there a result?’

And after parting, I thought of Reytana and Narin.

Looking at the time, it was already 3 PM.

Shouldn’t the battle result be out by now?

I went back to the Hunter Association right away.

And.

“What. It’s still not over.”

I found the two still fighting while dripping with sweat.

“Huff huff… I won’t let you get away…!”

“Same here… I’ll end it this time!”

Reytana and Narin, having used up all their magical power, were standing there panting in an exhausted state.

Though there should have been a result by now,

It seems they both have such strong competitive spirits that it won’t be decided easily.

“No choice.”

I approached the two while sighing.

“Kyah…!? Hero-nim?”

“Kya…? Master…?”

And I picked them both up.

“Just both of you come with me.”

And headed to a motel.

— — —

“Haah…”

Eun-ha taking a taxi to her home.

Eun-ha couldn’t help but sigh.

‘Want to go to a motel.’

‘Let’s have sex.’

Eun-ha recalled the words she said to Si-woo.

She pretended to be drunk when saying them, and Si-woo probably thought she was drunk, but actually Eun-ha wasn’t drunk at all.

She had just been acting to somehow hook Si-woo.

Once she got him to the motel she could create a fait accompli and get his confession.

‘Why won’t he fall for the seduction?’

But Si-woo didn’t take her to a motel.

Even though she had hinted at seduction so much, Si-woo didn’t show any interest in her.

He would have taken her long ago normally, it was too strange.

‘Ah… my pride hurts…!’

And that severely hurt Eun-ha’s pride.

Not only did her plan fail, but she couldn’t help but be annoyed at an ex-boyfriend who wouldn’t fall for seduction from a beauty like herself.

Eun-ha bit her lip tightly.

So.

She couldn’t fail like this.

“Please turn the car around.”

Eun-ha told the taxi driver, then arrived back at the Hunter Association.

‘Somehow… I will seduce him.’

And soon found Si-woo who hadn’t gone far, and started following him slowly.

Though the plan failed, another opportunity would come while following him.

Eun-ha thought positively.

So she waited for Si-woo to come out of the Hunter Association.

And.

“Hero-nim…”

“Master…”

Eun-ha couldn’t help but be shocked.

“What… what is this?”

Si-woo came out, but he didn’t come out alone.

He came out with two blonde beauties on either side.

Reytana and Narin.

The Saint and the Sword Saint.

He came out with those two.

Eun-ha was bewildered at that sight.

Wondering if he had something with those two…

She couldn’t help but feel anxious.

But.

‘Ah… it can’t be. He said he didn’t have a girlfriend.’

Eun-ha quickly regained her composure.

Si-woo had clearly told Eun-ha he didn’t have any girlfriend.

So even though those two were linking arms with him on either side, they must just be friends.

A very very wholesome friendship.

So there should be nothing to worry about.

“Why… are they going in there…”

But…

Why…

Why would friends go to a motel?

And… all three together…
