“…What!!”

At Na Hye-eun’s urgent voice, the four people gathered in the living room immediately ran into the room where Do-yoon was.

“Wow, what’s wrong? I want to see the face of the little guy who will soon be my colleague.”

“…I told you to be quiet.”

Inside the room, there was a growling Na Hye-eun and a languid woman looking at her and placing her hand on Do-yoon’s forehead.

Dark blue hair and dark circles around her eyes that made her look tired. However, an intense energy was emanating from around her body, as if it would swallow up the whole place at any moment.

“What the heck… .”

“…Wait a minute.”

Even Na Hye-eun is only on guard and cannot take proper action, which obviously means she is that strong.

As Seong Ha-neul became nervous and raised her magical power, Joo Ha-na immediately stopped her.

“Why are you blocking me? Doyoon is…!”

“That’s not it, that guy… no, that person… .”

Minute? Was there anyone whom Joo Ha Na could use honorifics for? Complex thoughts were running through my head.

And those thoughts were all organized by Han Yu-rim’s words, whose expression was clearly flustered.

“…Master?”

“……What?”

“Oh, yeah. Long time no see?”

Han Yu-rim’s teacher. That means…

“…Yoon Seori, sir?”

“Come on, kids.”

Yoon Seori.

Na Hye-eun, who was the teacher of Seong Ha-neul and Ju Ha-na, an awakened being of equal rank to her and one of the main characters of the last North-South War.

Is she the same witch who is taking Do-yoon hostage in front of me right now?

“By the way, kids these days are so brave, aren’t they? They just run in and see.”

“I told you. Don’t touch Doyoon. He’ll roll his eyes.”

“Huh… Can’t I just taste it?”

Yunseo-ri looked down at Doyoon and smacked her lips.

“No way. If you touch it any further, I’ll kill you for real.”

“Okay, okay… Would you guys stop looking at me like that? I’m starting to feel a little bad.”

“…If only the teacher hadn’t done that, this wouldn’t have happened.”

“Oh my.”

Yoon Seol-ri’s eyes widened as if she was intrigued by Han Yu-rim’s blunt words.

“Has our cute disciple gone astray?”

At the same time, a tingling sensation began to surge out from around Yun Seol-ri, like an electric current.

“…ugh.”

Perhaps because it was difficult to endure, the expressions of Joo Ha Na and others began to distort slightly.

“Yulim-ah, Yulim-ah. Didn’t I teach you that if you just stay still, you’ll get halfway there?”

Yoon Seol-ri started to move closer, as if she wasn’t planning on simply threatening him. The only way to stop him now is…

‘…doesn’t exist.’

She is a strong person on the same level as Na Hye-eun. Even if Joo Ha-na, Seong Ha-neul, Han Yu-rim, and Choi Ju-eun attack together at the same time, they will all be defeated in one go.

“Enough with the jokes.”

“Hot, okay. I’ll stop here. I have to play with the chicks in moderation.”

“I’ve told you several times before that your personality is the problem.”

Na Hye-eun, who couldn’t stand to watch anymore, sighed and opened her mouth, and only then did Yoon Se-ri gain momentum.

“…whoa.”

I let out the breath I had been holding in without realizing it because of the pressure.

‘Crazy, freak…’

I thought I had become stronger by now, but I guess I was no match for those old monsters.

“And you bitch, what are you doing, even though you know the map?”

“…What did you just say?”

But that thought was fleeting, and the provocation that came out of Na Hye-eun’s mouth cleared Joo Ha-na’s mind.

‘…Wait a minute?’

It might work out. A smile spread across Joo Ha Na’s lips.

“…Why is he smiling like that?”

“That’s just how it is. Don’t worry about it.”

“Isn’t it okay not to worry about it…?’

“Uh… Is that right?”

Despite Na Hye-eun and Yoon Se-ri’s anxious mutterings, Joo Ha-na’s smile never stopped.

“Anyway, did you hear the gist of the request through Hana?”

“Yes. I heard about going to war… but what exactly do I have to do? Should I just kill them all?”

Choi Joo-eun, who had been frozen since a while ago, seemed to have found some peace of mind, so she crossed her arms and leaned her back against the door frame.

“Similar. Part of the front line was delegated to the plant side. The fighting style is autonomous. All you have to do is block it.”

“Ahem… .”

As the group nodded their heads at Na Hye-eun’s explanation, Yoon Se-ri stretched and yawned.

“Haam… Can I borrow your room for a bit? I need to rest a bit.”

“…Yes, please do.”

“Ah, then I’ll use the room too. One… No. Sky should go to the room.”

“Oh, why? Just go to his room.”

“I think there’s something weird in that room.”

“… … .”

No, don’t be convinced there. Joo Ha Na, who was thinking about hitting Sung Ha Neul while looking at him nodding, soon shook her head.

“Then is that all I need to know?”

“Yeah. Is there anything else you need?”

“Oh, I have a question.”

When Han Yu-rim raised her hand, everyone’s eyes turned to her.

“What is it?”

“If it’s a plant, don’t they give you a disguised identity or something?”

“…I can make it for you. Why do you need it?”

“Hmm… Eom Ju-eun or Eom Ha-neul?”

“Follow me, really.”

As always, it was just bullshit. I’m an idiot for listening to that bitch, Yoon Seol-ri muttered and shook her head, scolding her.

“Stop talking nonsense and just show me to my room. Is your bed okay?”

“It would be a shame for the teacher to be sleeping.”

“…Me or the bed?”

“…Of course, Master.”

Kill this, save this. Yoon Seol-ri tilted her head to the side for a moment, then sighed and shook her head.

“Hmm… .”

How long did I sleep… I got up and looked around, but there was no one around me. I stumbled out to the living room, and saw my sisters discussing something.

“…Let’s do it? It’ll be burdensome. Do I really have to do it?”

“If we leave it as it is, it’s obvious that it will keep getting swayed. It’s better for us to take control.”

“But Doyoon… Oh, he’s awake?”

“Yes… .”

“Okay, come here.”

Sister Joo-eun naturally lifted me up and sat me on her lap. At this point, I thought my designated seat might be on my sisters’ laps.

‘It’s not bad, but….’

They were all so strong that they carried me without any problem, and it was more comfortable than I thought to have them bury their heads in their chests.

How should I put it, I feel like a little baby?

“…Ugh.”

“…Why is he like this again?”

“I guess you’re still half asleep.”

Oh no, what I was thinking just came out of my mouth without me realizing it.

“Can you do it one more time?”

“…I don’t like it.”

“It’s a shame.”

Sister Haneul puts her phone away, saying, “Ugh.”

“That’s perfect timing. I had something I wanted to say.”

“…Huh?”

To me? All of a sudden? What are you talking about?

“Yeah, it’s important.”

One of the older sisters smiled faintly. Usually, when she smiles like that, she has something to hide…

I looked at Hana Noona while swallowing my saliva, feeling nervous without realizing it.

‘Well, I think I’ve changed my mind now.’

Before I knew it, my older sisters had become like family to me. If I had been dropped into this unknown world without any foundation, it would be better to rely on people I could trust.

Even if they ask for my body in the process… Honestly, I feel good now. I can do it as much as I want.

‘Yeah, it’s okay now.’

And, more than anything, I now know that my sisters love me too. I felt at ease again and looked at my sister Hana.

“Can you please pick up just one girl?”

“……Huh?”

…but I didn’t expect this.

“, all of a sudden?”

“Yeah, I’m sorry to say this to you, but… .”

“I, I… .”

It was really unexpected. No, why all of a sudden? Even with the four of us gathered in the living room right now, honestly, we don’t have enough stamina to keep up.

Even if you include that scary woman named Na Hye-eun who comes sometimes, there are five people, and you want me to add more?

‘…It’s impossible.’

It was hard. It wasn’t something I could express to that extent. I really felt like I might die…

“You know that Hye-eun? She’s my friend… .”

“…Huh?”

Even that girl’s friend. Don’t they usually argue among themselves? It was obvious without even looking. I was definitely…

“Ugh… You don’t have to have sex. Is it too hard…?”

The problem is that I usually can’t do things my way…

“If it’s dangerous, Hye-eun will do her best to stop you. If you don’t want to, you don’t have to.”

“…Is this really necessary?”

“Um… That guy is a little scary. It’s hard for us too.”

…I was worried. If even Noona would say something like that, then it must be something serious, right?

‘…I want to help too.’

And if it was a problem that was so difficult for them, I wanted to help them too. After all, they were the only ones who could protect and cherish me.

“…I will do it.”

“…Really?”

Sister Hana looked at me with wide eyes, as if she was half-doubting the question she had asked herself.

“Yes… Because it’s something I can help you with.”

I nodded again and agreed with her. It wasn’t anything else, just picking up girls. Honestly, it didn’t seem like it would be that hard.

‘…I think just smiling a little would be enough.’

With a face like this, wouldn’t she fall for it if I just brought it up to her? Even if she doesn’t necessarily see me as the opposite sex.

“What exactly should I do?”

“Yeah, that’s… .”

After being given my own mission, I headed to the room where the woman named Yunseo-ri was.
