91.

After ending the call with Kang Jin-young, a call came from a number I had never seen before. It was either Kang Seo-jin or Min Su-hak, who found out that I had run away. One of the two.

After holding out for a few seconds, I reluctantly picked up the phone.

-Hello? Are you Kang Mi-young?

Hmm. It’s a very bright voice. I’ve heard it a lot. Especially today.

“Who is it?”

Kang Mi-young reacted fiercely. What if she was a woman related to Lee Seong-han?

‘I guess I’ll have to do some background checks first.’

And then······.

-Wow! This is the right number. It’s Seong-ah! Do you remember? You gave me your number to call if you needed anything while we were eating. I kept calling to ask where my brother was. I told you he’s a heavy drinker. Ha, men.

Kang Mi-young shuddered. She seemed to have no idea what she had just been thinking.

“Kehem.”

He felt embarrassed for no reason, coughed a few times, and continued talking. I definitely didn’t forget. I have a brain that remembers people no matter who they see, so there’s no way that would happen.

“Oh, I see. Lee Seong-ah. Just a moment, I’ll write down your number in the phone book.”

Kang Mi-young continued talking on the phone and moved forward.

It is a good choice to attack family relationships like this. After all, family is made up of blood. It cannot be separated. The love for family is also special, so what can you do?

“······What is your brother’s drinking habit?”

-An injection? Uh······ Just hug anyone. When you drink, you don’t remember. Hehe.

Phew. Don’t worry. If things get worse later on, it’ll be a problem.

Kang Mi-young spoke in a very bright tone.

“Thank you. Is there anything you want to eat?

-Soo, fresh chicken. Fried. Oh, right. This is my brother sleeping. It’s a deposit.

“Huh? A deposit?”

When I checked the text window, it was a picture of Lee Seong-han, who had just fallen asleep in his room. I could see Lee Seong-ah’s shadow, as if it had just been taken.

Ugh. I can’t download pictures like this. Kang Mi-young closed her eyes. Okay, let’s act according to our conscience.

[Download completed.]

“Keuh-heum! This is what an adult should do. From now on, you don’t have to hand over the photos.”

It’s definitely not selfish. It’s just a way to manage stress that may arise in the future.

-is it so?

Lee Seong-ah let out a sigh of regret. How can a child know one’s true feelings so well? These days, children are completely unpredictable.

Or else it will be full of vulgarity.

-I’m going to tease you later. If I have it on my phone, I’ll forget and delete it later. Plus, I might get something else in return. How about bartering?

‘Exchange······ This isn’t a bad deal.’

Kang Mi-young paused for a moment and tapped numbers on her mental calculator. If they were family, there was a high chance they would have photos of Lee Seong-han from his childhood or other materials.

Hmm… about 70%? I’ve seen Kang Jin-young and Kang Seo-jin carrying their own photos in their arms.

“It’s my picture.”

“Yeah, unnie, just die. Haha.’

“I’m with you too.”

I did stick it on the cursed doll, though. Well, isn’t that what all family members do?

-What do you think? You need it too, sister.

“Yeah.”

-You want to tease our brother too, right?!

“I want to tease you.”

Kang Mi-young smiled and took a deep breath.

The scent of countless manas circulating through the lungs.

There is a foul smell even among them. They are disgusting monsters.

“There is someone I want to tease.”

Kang Mi-young pulled out the sword that was cold at her side. The walk was just beginning.

* * *

“Hoo.”

After finishing her walk, Kang Mi-young wandered around the house looking for Lee Seong-han. There was some ‘collateral damage’ from completely clearing out the forest, but they were going to die anyway.

I went to a nearby bathroom to wash off the blood and dirt, and changed into clean clothes. I even took a shower. A fresh smell rose up.

I thought I wouldn’t wake up at this point.

“I guess it’s here.”

Kang Mi-young went into the guest room where Lee Seong-han was sleeping. As soon as she saw him sleeping on the bed, she couldn’t help but laugh.

“Hmm······ Hehehe, big bang.”

“You’re cute. How can you beat me with such a big body?”

Kang Mi-young approached quietly like an assassin and laid down next to Lee Seong-han. The bed was just the right size. Lee Seong-han was so slender. It felt warm and snug.

Kang Mi-young strengthened her auditory nerves while looking at Lee Seong-han’s face. Since they were close, she could hear his heartbeat in a steady rhythm, thump, thump, thump.

It makes me laugh. Just listening to it is healing.

Fabric softener and a sweet scent tickle my nose. I want to hug him right away, but I hold back. I know that as soon as I wake up, he’ll scream, ““sex offender!”.”

I was drunk and out of my mind. Even if I said I had gone for a walk, it was the same. I was just a little sleepy. On the contrary, I felt like my senses had become even more sharp.

Then suddenly I got goosebumps.

“What if I get hated?”

As soon as it occurred to him that he had been caught, he started to crawl out like a snake.

“I······ will definitely, protect you.”

Kang Mi-young blushed as soon as she heard Lee Seong-han’s snoring. Ahem, how nice it would be if I had recorded those words in advance. She quietly went up to his ear and whispered.

“Joe, I like you. Your Majesty!”

As fast as possible, gun gun gun.

I ran out of the room.

* * *

“I’m tired.”

Kang Mi-young rubbed her eyes, feeling embarrassed.

The night before, we rode up the mountain and cleared 6 small gates, 19 medium gates, and 12 large gates.

Even if he’s a superhuman, it’s natural for him to get tired. It wasn’t a threat to the military. It was a threat to a small city. He dealt with that alone.

Well, for this kind of peaceful daily life, I am prepared to fight through fire and water. This morning patrol is part of that.

‘Ugh, it’s cold.’

Kang Mi-young sneezed briefly. As she walked down the street, she couldn’t see anyone at all. Thanks to that, she didn’t need to cover her face.

It feels like I’ve been on a long vacation.

At that moment, a hand rose to Kang Mi-young’s forehead.

“What.”

“Major. I think you have caught a cold.”

The owner of the hand was Lee Seong-han, who was walking alongside him. He had a very serious face and tone, which did not match his appearance the day before.

Thanks to that, Kang Mi-young hid her emotions as much as possible and just furrowed her eyebrows.

“It’s okay.”

“Major, as you know, you have a fever. Are you sick? Would you please open your mouth and say “Ah~”? If you do that, it will be difficult for you to lie down in bed again.”

Kang Mi-young’s face turned red like a carrot.

“Ugh!”

After a while, I tried to push Lee Seong-han’s arm away, but it didn’t work well.

“Your Majesty.”

“Yes, Major.”

“I wouldn’t do such ‘cute’ things to other women.”

“Of course. I’m not the kind of person who would leave you behind, Major.”

Kang Mi-young grabbed Lee Seong-han’s cheek and pinched it. It was dizzying to think that if she was walking around town like this and was caught by a reporter, it would be broadcasted as breaking news.

“Oh my. Major. It hurts!”

Kang Mi-young sighed and released the hand she had been pinching.

“Sorry, but I seem to have caught a cold. Colds get better when they spread to other people. Ahem. My throat looks sore too.”

Lee Seong-han rubbed his pinched cheek with his hand as if it hurt.

“Major, you should dress warmly, even in the summer. My windbreaker─”

As soon as she said that, Kang Mi-young snatched Lee Seong-han’s windbreaker. It was soaked in sweat······. Lee Seong-han stared blankly at his coat being NTR’d.

“There’s no wind coming in. I don’t think there’s any smell anyway. Thank you, sir.”

Kang Mi-young maintained a calm expression as if there was no problem.

“······.”

“Ugh, this smells the best.”

Lee Seong-han ignored the voice he heard.

Of course it’s fabric softener. The smell of fabric softener is wafting in. I’m sure they’ll use a good product. Should I ask them later?

Anyway, all the clothes are the same. Kang Mi-young zipped up her windbreaker and walked forward.

“Ugh.”

I think I just heard a strange noise, but I’ll let it go.

There’s no way anything will change if you touch those things one by one. You must be very tired. Lee Seong-han put his hand on his head. He must have been so upset when he found out that he had been drunk the night before. Oh my. He was trying to cross to the opposite lane.

bang!

There was a loud noise as if a collision had occurred up ahead. Then a siren blared. The timing was bad.

“It’s a monster. Can you feel it?”

Kang Mi-young asked in a flat voice. Of course it felt that way. At this level, it was a D~E class monster. It was not a level that could be given high praise.

A reasonable hunter can crush flesh and bones in a matter of seconds.

“ Major. There are many monsters ahead. The 5-minute standby team has not arrived yet. It is not detected on the separate communication network. ”

Lee Seonghan continued speaking while pulling out a sword from his subspace backpack.

“We need to buy time.”

A katana wrapped in red bandages glowed. [Cursed Ronin’s Sword (B)]. An item obtained from the Kakryung Market. Its potential ability has been strengthened.

“Okay.”

[‘Auto Battle’ prepares combat skills.]

[‘■■■■ Eyes’ identify individual weaknesses and distribute information.]

[‘Super-Recon’ laughs and monitors the nearby environment.]

“Kirruk.”

Movement is visible. The opponent is a short kobold. They are a race that digs caves and melts mineral resources to eat them. Their rank is around E. They have a wide living area and high reproductive capacity, so they compete with each other through tactics.

If goblins are terrestrial, kobolds are underground.

In particular, you have to be very careful because they sometimes dig holes in sewers. When they come out to the ground like this… it’s when their living area is invaded or when the nest itself is attacked.

It’s the same reason goblins are on guard when a village is burning.

Fortunately, all civilians have been evacuated.

Even if it exists, it is moving this way.

“No time to rest. Move.”

“Okay!”
