“Sihu, look at that! The sunset is already setting.”

“Oh, really! Has it already been this long… … ?”

“That’s right. Sihu, I really lose track of time when I’m with you?”

Top floor of Seongsam Hotel.

The suite’s rooftop terrace.

From there, you can hear the sweet conversation between lovers.

“It was a good thing you came out, right? The wind is refreshing too.”

“What is it? What does that mean? Are you saying that time was frustrating when you were at home with me?”

Iria asks a sudden question and glares at Sihu. While twitching his eyebrows.

“Oh, no! I don’t mean that… ! I’m happy just by being with my sister! I just mean… Well, I mean… … !”

Sihu is very embarrassed by the unexpected question.

He stutters and stutters.

I felt chilled by Iria’s small change of heart.

“Fuuhu-! I’m kidding. There’s no need to make excuses like that.”

“Eh… … ?”

Iria’s fiercely raised gaze quickly softened. It was initially thrown to tease Sihoo, but seeing her take it so seriously made her laugh without realizing it.

“Just kidding~ Are you afraid I got upset over such a trivial thing? It’s so cute, it’s so cute♡”

“No, you were surprised! My heart is falling… … .”

Sihoo Han sighs in relief and sweeps his chest. Still, he quickly smiled at Iria. It was because the love he had for himself felt sincere.

Their eyes were like those of a couple on a honeymoon.

“Hmph, it would be great to have some fun just the two of you? Do you know how hard it was for us to find that place?”

A somewhat harsh voice interrupts such a friendly atmosphere.

“Keuhum! Well, I thought that conversation ended earlier? Park Bi-hwa, are you as narrow-minded as your heart?”

“Well, what… ?! Such nonsense!”

The person who intervened in the conversation was none other than Park Bi-hwa.

She stared, narrowing her eyes.

Of course, it was an uncomfortable look.

He thought he would have a chance to make Sihu his own at the water park, but contrary to his expectations, he couldn’t do anything.

This was all because of Iria, who always carried Sihu like a kangaroo. There was absolutely no way to intervene. If it had been an academy, they would have somehow lured Shihu out using grades as an excuse.

How dare you go on a date at a water park, just the two of you?

I can’t back down any longer.

I will win Sihu tonight!

No matter what happens, absolutely, absolutely!

Something similar to determination was burning in the narrowed eyes of Park Bi-hwa, who was looking at Iria and Han Si-hoo from the side.

“Park Bi-hwa? I don’t think you have anything to be upset about?”

“What did you say just now?! How can you be so shameless… … !”

When Park Bi-hwa revealed his discomfort,

Iria responds without hesitation.

The tone of voice was as if it was not worth dealing with.

“ Sihu is definitely my guy, so why do you keep showing your jealousy in front of me? Even though you’re a hero, you’re probably not trying to steal someone else’s man, right?”

“That’s not what you mean, right?!”

“No, right? I can clearly see your dark intentions through those small narrow eyes. Well, it would be a futile effort to attack Baeknal Sihu.”

“Hmph… ! Your arrogance… … . It won’t last very long.”

“Arrogance? This is not arrogance, this is righteousness. Because Sihu doesn’t have the slightest interest in you.”

Their eyes sparkle.

The tense battle of nerves continued with eye contact.

However, Park Bi-hwa only twitched his eyebrows,

I couldn’t really say anything back.

I wanted to pick Ham Il-do, but

There was nothing wrong with what Iria said.

So they just continued the tug-of-war with their eyes.

A cold, imminent situation.

“Keu, keuhm… ! Maybe it’s because it’s on the highest floor, but the view is really nice… … ! Who, sister? Look over there! It’s a fountain show!”

It was none other than Han Si-hoo’s voice that broke the cold silence. The person who was caught in the middle noticed it and changed the topic.

ㅡShooaaa… !

And at the same time, a really long stream of water rises high into the sky. In fact, a fountain was gushing out from the artificial lake created below the hotel.

It was a fairly large fountain that was clearly visible from the top floor.

“Wow, really! It’s a really big fountain-?!”

“Yeah, right? This is my first time seeing a fountain that high!”

Iria quickly senses Sihu’s feelings and responds. While completely ignoring Park Bi-hwa.

“Anyway, how long has it been since I last enjoyed a vacation like this? … . It’s really been a while.”

“Phew… I feel good because my sister likes it.”

Thanks to the cool water from the fountain, the bloody atmosphere seemed to subside further, as Sihu had intended.

But even for a moment… … .

“I guess Sihu oppa was spewing out a fountain like that at the water park earlier… ? It’s obvious, it’s obvious… … .”

“… … ?!”

The muttering of Moran, who is sitting with her legs curled in one corner of the terrace, once again makes the atmosphere cold.

After returning from the water park, he remained silent, like someone who had given up on everything, and then suddenly spoke.

Of course, Sihu and Iria pulled out at the scene, saying they had never done anything like that, but in front of Moran’s perspective, they were blindfolded and just responded.

ㅡShooaaa… … !

As the atmosphere flows strangely, the sound of the fountain resonating in the silence sounds strangely strange. I don’t know if it was because of that, but the two couldn’t say anything for a while.

… … .

A heavy silence continued for a while.

-Snap!

“Everyone is outside-!”

“Ah, Jihyun… … !”

“Are you finished with your schedule now? I was already waiting… … !”

What broke the quiet atmosphere was none other than Seong Ji-hyun’s voice. Even Iria greeted her with a bright smile.

Sihu was just grateful to Seong Ji-hyun, who always showed up at perfect timing.

“I’m sorry. I had a lot of things to discuss with my mother… … . Anyway, everyone, please come in now. Have you already prepared room service for dinner?”

“Dinner? Well, I was just hungry… ! That’s good, Sihu, right?”

“Ugh… ! Sister!”

“Hehe, that’s not all? Shouldn’t we start talking about business now?”

Iria and Han Si-hoo are the first to turn their backs to Seong Ji-hyeon’s explanation while nodding their heads.

Accordingly, Park Bi-hwa and Moran also had no choice but to move on in silence.

*

ㅡDalgraak, Dalgak… !

The cutlery clicks with the bowl and makes a sound.

Everyone continued eating in silence for a while.

Everyone must have been hungry after exhausting themselves at the water park during the day.

I was hungry too.

First, I swallowed my food without saying a word.

In order to fill the vital energy I was blessed with, I had to eat well.

But is this really room service?

Isn’t this a buffet for a business trip?

What kind of food keeps filling you up?

The dinner prepared by Seong Ji-hyeon was literally grand. As expected, a variety of delicacies were placed on the large table. Every time the dishes were empty, the chefs were personally serving new dishes.

I’m having a hard time deciding what to eat first.

“How do you all like it?”

During the meal, Iria starts to get lucky.

Everyone just nodded at this.

Everyone was engrossed in their meal with a satisfied look on their faces.

“Please listen slowly and enjoy. Let me tell you about business.”

With those words, Seong Ji-hyun stands up and claps! Then, attendants in black suits enter.

-Fly!

They placed the contract and pen in front of us and left. I guess they are telling you to sign if you like the explanation.

“From now on, please do not disclose anything I am talking about anywhere. The more you feel like getting on the same boat with me, the more.”

So Seong Ji-hyeon continued her explanation with a bright smile on her face.

*

The story Seong Ji-hyeon told was surprising.

Rather than a brilliant business idea,

Because it was a system I was very familiar with.

“Do you all understand what I’m saying?”

After finishing explaining the system structure of the new business, Seong Ji-hyeon looks left and right and asks. We all nodded at this.

“If we start, other companies will follow us. Private hero companies will spring up all over the place. To recruit better heroes.”

“… As expected.”

I thought for a moment and was convinced.

It was not a familiar system, but a routine.

It was like that. What Seong Ji-hyeon was explaining now was the concept of a hunter guild.

That made it even more surprising.

‘Isn’t Seong Ji-hyun possessed just like me? ‘How did you come up with such a perfect business structure with the guild?’

-Growl… !

When I was suppressing my admiration,

The wine glass in front of me fills with red.

Seong Ji-hyun went around the table and poured wine into each person’s glass.

“… My explanation ends here. Additionally, I would like to ask you one last opinion.”

“What do you mean by opinion?”

It was Park Bi-hwa who opened his mouth first.

She was listening with a friendly attitude.

The uncomfortable voice from earlier had already subsided.

“The name of this project has not yet been decided. However, it is not possible to give it the same name as an association. Do you have any good ideas?”

Finally, Seong Ji-hyeon, who filled her glass with wine, asks a question.

“Well, then… What about the name Guild?”

I slowly raised my hand and offered my opinion. It was because I didn’t want to drag on time with just a name.

“Guild… ? Oh, is that good?! Do other people have different opinions?”

Seong Ji-hyeon reacts with unusual surprise and reaffirms her opinion.

“I agree with Shihu’s opinion.”

“Me too.”

“I also agree… !”

Pungran, who had been depressed, seemed to have relaxed after the dinner, and his voice became somewhat brighter.

Anyway, the result was unanimous.

The process went fairly smoothly.

A smile bloomed on Seong Ji-hyeon’s face as well.

“Can I take that to mean that everyone will participate in my business?”

-Nod, nod… !

Everyone took a quick look and expressed their positive intentions.

“Good. Then shall we all raise a toast to commemorate being on the same boat?”

ㅡUgh… !

Seong Ji-hyun stands up and proposes a toast. We got up and raised our glasses after her.

“If you support the launch of Seongsam Guild, please clink glasses with me.”

Then he came forward and raised his glass high in the air.

ㅡWith tea… !

Eventually, the glasses clash together with a clear sound.

ㅡSuddenly, suddenly… !

And everyone was drinking wine in one go after toasting as if they had made a promise.

I wanted to avoid alcohol if possible, but I thought it would be rude to refuse in a situation like this, so I took a sip.

ㅡSip or Sip… !

‘Um, wait a minute… ? ‘It seems like something is strong?’

I just took a small sip,

My tongue feels tingly and hazy.

“Hiccup… !”

If you do this wrong, you might get hooked at once.
