Episode.7 Association and the pure white girl

It was when I opened the hideout door to leave for my residence.

Yerim called me from behind.

Yerim handed me a new ID card instead of Seoyoon.

And Yerim gave me a box with a caution sticker attached.

“Thank you. But what is this all of a sudden? Parting gift? Are you actually a tsundere or something? Maybe I don’t like that kind of thing..?”

“It’s not a gift, you idiot? Eunbyeol told me to make it yesterday, so I made it!… It’s a potion that changes your face, so know that.”

For your information, the name of the potion is… It’s my first time making it, so I don’t have a specific name in mind.

Even though Yerim and I don’t have a good relationship… I was afraid that she might have messed around with the potion.

Still, there is no doubt that her alchemy can be called the best.

Yerim said that and immediately closed the hideout door.

When it closed so hard, I felt a bit like I was being kicked out of the door.

The potions I received were quite large, so they were all contained in one box.

All the potions I received were filled with potions that would change your face to a new one.

I took a quick look at the box and saw that the potion had a sticker that said 24 hours.

I guess this refers to the duration… I have Wimp’s Grace, which increases the duration of potions by 10x.

Although this is a D-level technology, it has been in good use for quite some time.

‘This is quite useful..’

I checked my ID card and there was no change.

But the face is a little different.

This face is my first time seeing it.

Does your face change like this when you drink a potion?

Did Yerim anticipate this and ask Seoyun to make it like this?

It was a moment when I realized once again that her alchemy skills were outstanding.

I picked up the box and set off back to the residence Eunbyeol had prepared.

**********

My residence was not far from the hideout.

1 hour walk.

No, not a bit… not far?

…

I wish they would have provided me with a car if possible, but…

‘Common sense tells us where there is a car in nature, especially in the middle of a forest.’

The association is located next to a large guild.

The reason I say this is because that large guild is where my ex-girlfriend joined.

‘Bitch…’

By the way, the house I will live in is just around the corner.

I’m very tired, probably because I walked for an hour in the early morning.

I yawned and turned the corner.

But as soon as I turned, I collided with someone.

– chin!

-dump.

The person I hit hit his head on my chest and fell to the floor.

“Ouch…”

She complained of pain without a single scream.

As if this kind of thing was familiar.

Her appearance reflected in the streetlight was impressive with her pure white hair and chest cut out to beat the summer heat.

So, is it okay to wear clothes with open chest areas in winter?

I started hating the winter season a little.

Her clothes had a pure white background with some black designs, making the viewer feel at ease.

And the clothes on her abdomen were tight enough to expose her navel and Y zone.

Her white garter belt and tight white leggings… stockings? I’m not sure what it was, but the flesh on her legs stood out.

And the coat, which was white on the outside and black on the inside, was stained.

The piece of cloth that covered her underwear and private parts under the dress was also clearly visible.

“Hey… are you okay?”

I put the box down on the floor and quickly picked up the person who had fallen.

“Yes, yes… it’s okay.”

She said it was okay and fumbled on the floor.

“Are you looking for this?”

I picked up her ID and handed it to her.

But she seems to belong to an association.

‘Oh my… I’d be in trouble if I got caught.’

I felt guilty about looking at my ID card without permission, so I immediately returned it.

‘Should I have at least checked the name?’

“Ah, thank you… Hey, could you… I’m sorry, but I have trouble with my eyesight, so could you help me find the smartphone that fell near here?”

As soon as she said that, I picked up the smartphone that had fallen and returned it to her.

But your eyes are uncomfortable?

Did my glasses fall off?

“Did you drop your glasses?”

I gave her back the phone and asked her if she had dropped her glasses as well.

“Ah.. No, this doesn’t mean that my eyes are uncomfortable… No, maybe that’s true..?”

She spoke gibberish.

“I don’t wear glasses..”

She says she doesn’t wear glasses.

‘… Then the lens?’

“It may be too TMI for you, but I was born blind and visually impaired.”

… thank god. From the beginning of the mission, my identity was almost discovered by a member of the association.

Honestly, I was glad she was blind. really.

“So, I was always curious about the scenery of the outside world, and I walk around the streets every day at dawn.”

Because she was blind, she seemed familiar even when she bumped into me.

But don’t blind people usually walk around with something like a cane?

Isn’t there a yellow Braille guidance block between the sidewalk blocks on the floor?

So I asked her about that.

“Uh… Then don’t you usually carry something like a cane?”

“No, I have much better senses than other people, so I don’t need a cane or anything.”

She says she doesn’t need a cane or anything.

“Even when I go out alone, I am good at avoiding obstacles like streetlights. But especially when I walk alone in the early morning, I lose my senses and often bump into things… This is my first time bumping into a person.”

I had a good feeling… it meant that she might find out that I was still looking at her cleavage.

So I started looking into her eyes.

“Huh?.. But if you don’t mind being rude, can I ask you something?”

“Yes. Ask anything. I will answer you if it is not difficult.”

I asked her with peace of mind because of her kind heart.

“Visual difficulty… No, don’t blind people usually wear sunglasses?.. No, is there a reason why they walk around with their eyes closed?..”

“Yes. Usually blind people wear sunglasses. The reason I walk around with my eyes closed is because it doesn’t make any difference whether I walk around with my eyes open or closed, so it’s easier to just close them.”

“Ah.. I see..”

“But I am different from ordinary blind people.”

“Yes? Well, then..?”

“It may be a bit archaic, but… do you remember what I said about being born with a disability?”

“Yes.”

“… Actually, I’m not blind… I don’t have eyes to begin with.”

“Yes?”

“Literally.. I was born without eyes.”

I was shocked to hear those words and froze.

It was so shocking that my body froze and I couldn’t move in this hot summer.

“… Have all your questions been answered by this point? I’ll go now… Ah, that… What’s your name?”

“…. …. Ah… yes. My name is Siwoo Han.”

“I see.. Han Si-woo.. That’s a good name.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the association.

“Hey, wait a minute… What is your name?”

She stopped when she heard me.

“Is there anyone who doesn’t know me?”

“Yes?”

“I thought I was pretty famous… but I still need to work harder.”

“…”

“So you helped me even though you didn’t know me…”

Why did the title change from that to you? Didn’t you tell me your name?

She walked back toward the association.

I used technology to recognize her.

‘The King’s Insight activated.’

– Tiring!

[Check the other party’s information.]

[information]

Name: Baek Harin (21)

Position: Healer

-Technology Possessed-

[Cannot be confirmed.]

-Current Status-

My feelings for you are [unknown].

[The level difference between the creature and the creature trying to gain insight is too great, so the current state cannot be accurately determined.]

==========

Her name is Baek Harin.

It was Harin.

No, but who is Harin?

What is this kid doing that has such a big difference in level with me?

Once I cleared the gate, I definitely leveled up from D to lower C level.

This doesn’t mean that the bottom C level is high, but…

If that’s the case, she’s at least B-level or higher.

I picked up the box containing my precious potion and ID card that was lying on the floor and headed to my studio.

However, if you live near the association, the price will be quite expensive…

Is Eunbyeol extremely rich?

Speaking of being a former S-class hunter, it was even weirder that he didn’t have any money.

The rate of return for S-class hunters is truly enormous.

As long as you maintain your reputation well, the S level is where money starts to increase in your bank account just by belonging somewhere.

I shook my head and cleared my thoughts.

I opened the door to the studio.

‘Is it cleaner inside than I thought?’

I lay down on the mattress in the corner, grateful that the interior of the studio was clean.

Since I had to go to the association as a new employee tomorrow, I had to recover from the fatigue of walking for an hour in the early morning.

I didn’t have to try to fall asleep on my own.

This is because my eyelids that slowly closed felt as heavy as an 8-ton truck.

So I fell asleep.

In a suspicious studio apartment that was strangely clean even though it had been abandoned for a long time.

– Rustling.
