Arin has been in a lot of trouble these days.

“….”

“Haa..”

“.Lin..!”

She’s in so much trouble that she doesn’t even notice if someone calls her right in front of her nose.

“Arin!”

“Wow, what a surprise..!”

From Arin’s point of view, it would have been surprising to see him suddenly face her and shout her name loudly.

“I think I called you twenty times earlier, but didn’t you hear me?”

“Oh, eh? Did you do that? Oh, I’m sorry…!”

“It seems like that happens often these days. Do you have any concerns?”

Eunjeong asked with a worried expression.

I saw that he was bruised the most since he started taking classes and seemed to think more.

As a teacher in charge of Arin’s psychological treatment, I couldn’t help but be worried.

“Uh, that’s…”

Arin thought for a moment and was about to speak when she glanced at the camera that was turned on.

“Shall we turn off the broadcast for a moment and talk?”

These days, the focus is on skill classes rather than psychological counseling, so Arin also tends to keep the broadcast on throughout class.

“Sorry, everyone. I think I need to get some rest. If I can kill you later, I will kill you again?”

[ Wow, Arin, don’t go ㅠㅠ ]

[Why are you so indulgent today?ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]

[No wayㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ]

.

Although I was a little heartbroken as chats about her kept popping up one after another.

“I’m really sorry! Instead, I will turn on the broadcast later at night!”

Since it was an unavoidable situation now, the broadcast ended with an evening broadcast announced.

“Hanseo, please go to the break room for a moment. Arin, I’m going to provide psychological counseling.”

“Ah, yes. All right. Then I’ll be back for a bit.”

Hanseo was the invited instructor this time to teach Arin the structure of her new fire skill and help her use the skill more smoothly.

He was a B-rank hunter, which was quite high among fire-using hunters, but he was currently working a little more actively in class than going to the gate.

“See you later, teacher!”

“Yes, Arin. Fighting!”

It hasn’t been long since Hanseo came, but Arin was attracted to her with a refreshing personality.

The three people, including Eun-jeong, were very close.

However, no matter how close they were, the details of the consultation were kept secret.

“Okay, then, shall we talk?”

“I’m sorry, I was so blank for no reason.”

“No. What are you sorry about? I was just thinking that I should have a consultation anyway.”

One of the reasons why Eun-jeong still remains here was the coordination between Han-seo and Arin.

Even excluding that, periodic consultations were scheduled to continue for some time.

“First of all, it seems like you and Hanseo are getting along well these days. how is it? Taking classes related to skills.”

“Ah! It’s really fun and great! Now, there is no longer any problem in using skills. When you take Professor Hanseo’s class, it’s really interesting and fun because you can learn how to apply it in directions you never thought possible.”

The reason why Hanseo was highly evaluated among B-class hunters was because of her application skills.

Rather than just using a skill normally, I would apply that skill and use it in a completely different way.

That was of great help to others when attacking the gate.

“When I go to the gate someday, I want to create my own application method like Teacher Hanseo.”

Arin, who used to be scared just by using skills, was no longer there.

He had achieved so much growth that he said he wanted to enter the gate and use his own method.

“Well, creating your own method is a very good thing. There may come a day when Arin can also pass on his know-how to other hunters.”

“Gasp! So do I become a teacher?”

“Yes, that will happen, right?”

A teacher who teaches classes to hunters.

These were words that awakened a new excitement in Arin, who had been thinking about nothing else but going to the gate.

“If you can save people with that method, you can probably save them.”

“Yes, of course. It is said that hunters who learned Hanseo’s application method actually use enormous power to prevent accidents and shorten gate clearing time.”

Shortening the gate clearing time was an extremely unconventional task as it directly affected the lives of the hunters.

If the clearing time was shortened like that, it would be possible to go around one more gate and prevent the gate from collapsing.

Ultimately, they could not help but be directly related to protecting the lives of ordinary citizens.

“I really hope so. Someday. Well, of course, it’s a story from the far, distant future since I can’t even get to the gate yet, right?”

“Well, I guess it might not be that far off.”

“Hehe, teacher, please show me too!”

Arin brushed it off as just something to boost her, but Eunjeong truly thought that way.

“Anyway, so. I think I have a problem, can you tell me about it?”

Eun-jeong, who slowly started talking about the latest news, asked about the reason why she started counseling today.

“Ah, that’s right.. that’s why I started it, hmm..”

Arin, who had been talking excitedly, also showed an apologetic expression on her face again when she returned to the original topic.

“No, there is nothing to be sorry about. I’m just curious about what Arin is thinking about.”

“…Um, uh.. ha.. Well, before I say anything, maybe…”

“Perhaps?”

“I hope you don’t tell this to Gilma, but is it possible?”

All of the contents of the consultation were being reported to the guild master, Geon-woo, and since this was something that Arin had agreed to from the beginning, Eun-jung was also comfortable relaying it.

“Yes, I will. The rule is not to communicate if the client is uncomfortable.”

And when they first said they would have a consultation, Geon-woo first told Eun-jeong that it was okay not to convey anything that made Arin uncomfortable.

Of course, that was Seojun’s consideration.

“Whoa, that’s it… I… there’s someone I’m worried about these days…”

Arin, who had been hesitant while speaking, gathered courage and spoke.

“If you’re worried about this person, does that mean you’ve found someone you like?”

“Oh, well, rather than that, he’s literally a person that bothers me..!”

Although she was trying hard to deny it, it was obvious that Eun-Ji, who heard it for the first time today, knew that Arin’s heart was leaning in the direction she liked.

“Hmm, that’s right. Would you like to tell me what happened?”

But I didn’t go out of my way to point that out.

It was because Arin’s feelings were developing and forcing her to realize that she was not, but instead of helping her realize it, it was actually poisonous.

“Well, the person I’m worried about is actually the person that Mrs. Gil calls me every time.”

“If it’s a phone call..?”

“It seems like there is someone reporting on us. I think he’s probably from Sogang Group…”

Although he had talked about it with Chae-yoon, Na-hyeon, and Su-ah, he had never told it to Eun-jeong, so at some point, he slowly relayed the story about the phone calls he had heard from the beginning.

“Are you worried about that object?”

“Yes, that’s right. At first, it was really simple and I just wondered who Gilma was talking about us. Are they reporting because they are from Sogang and are receiving investment? But that doesn’t mean they are our fans if they tell us things they didn’t necessarily say. I just had that thought.”

Although it was quite complicated from the beginning, I thought it was not a category that could not be understood.

We knew from the beginning that the guild was receiving support from Sogang, and we thought it was natural to report on the level of activity and results we were achieving if we were receiving support.

“But… after some time, that feeling that was just curiosity… began to change.”

The simple feeling of curiosity began to sprout other emotions.

“…I happened to hear that person’s voice…”

“I heard about it?”

“..the voice…”

“The voice..?”

Eun-jeong swallowed her saliva and listened like someone listening to an exciting story.

Obviously, the relationship between the two is that of a counselor and a client, but on the other hand, they are like close sisters and brothers.

It was inevitable that hearing Arin’s story like this was simply humanly enjoyable.

“..so…because…it’s my taste…”

This time, Arin blushed with anger and continued speaking.

Eun-jeong smiled at that innocence, which contrasted with the previous comment that she didn’t like it.

“Hmm, I see. Are your feelings starting to change in a different direction because you like the voice? How has it changed?”

I felt like I wanted to laugh and make fun of him by saying, “You like it!”

Anyway, since this was not a private situation, Eun-jeong tried to control her expression and continued the story to help Arin realize her feelings.

“I don’t know what kind of person he is, but just from the sound of his voice… he seems like he’s the same age. Anyway, after hearing our story, they really liked it… uh, that’s how it felt… so I’m also happy… and I want to meet them… uh, just like that… uh, um… that…”

The way she spoke so gibberish, as if she was slowly accepting the feelings she had denied, could only be described as the appearance of a shy girl in love.

“So you haven’t been able to concentrate properly these days because you’ve been thinking about that? Hmm, is it first love?”

“…. Um… Yes, that’s right…”
