“Hey, why are you eating so much? Eat in moderation.”

“Yes? Hey Mr. Hong, this is only my second time eating this… ?”

The breakfast table is quite noisy these days.

This is the effect of a new guest entering the dormitory.

I listened to the conversation while mechanically stuffing tasteless meat into my mouth.

“Did you eat two? I ate a lot. Stop eating.”

“No, that’s too much. Whose nose should you put just two dots on? Even ordinary people can’t fill their stomachs with this! Let’s not do this between superhumans.”

Hong Yeon-hwa glances to the side while eating, and Baek A-rin stops even using her chopsticks and looks dumbfounded at the accusation that she only ate two pieces of meat.

The argument that started with Hong Yeon-hwa’s one-sided cavil strangely felt like background music.

Perhaps because they knew they weren’t really fighting, the others, including me, ate breakfast without paying much attention.

Seoyul was nodding her head up and down, as if she hadn’t fallen asleep yet, and Elia and I were sitting on either side of her, taking care of her while eating.

On the other side, Hong Yeon-hwa, Baek A-rin, and Ariel are sitting and eating breakfast.

“I am embarrassed to say this to you, but… You really look ugly.”

As the bickering continued, Ariel, who was quietly eating her food, gently poked Hong Yeon-hwa.

At first, I declined, wondering how we could eat at the same table, but these days, we sit at the table and eat together without saying anything.

“Mr. Ani, don’t say anything if you’re being indecent! Rather, shouldn’t you take my side?”

Hong Yeon-hwa became angry and raised her voice.

“Me?”

“What is that reaction… ? I’m your employee?”

“Strictly speaking, my employer is Hong Jin-seon, the head of the household. Also, Ariel is an employee who can point out mistakes even if the other person is the employer.”

“That’s right! They say you don’t even touch a dog while eating, but do you bother them even at the dinner table?”

The situation has changed.

Hong Yeon-hwa, who had been unilaterally poking Baek A-rin, was suddenly being beaten 2-on-1 by Ariel and Baek A-rin.

Ariel seemed to have no hesitation in stabbing Hong Yeon-hwa, as if she was always hated by her.

“A C.”

In the end, Hong Yeon-hwa sulked. He frowned, then picked up a large amount of stir-fried pork on the table and put it in his mouth.

Hong Yeon-hwa prefers meat side dishes and serves them on her dinner table every day.

Among them, she especially likes stir-fried pork, so I often serve stir-fried pork cooked to her taste.

While examining him, I noticed that Hong Yeon-hwa’s rice bowl was almost empty.

“Yeonhwa? A bowl, please.”

“Huh? Uh.”

Hong Yeon-hwa, who was grumbling with chopsticks in her mouth, blinked at the hand held out in front of her.

Afterwards, he let out an exclamation and quietly held out the rice bowl.

I accepted him, filled him with steaming rice, and handed him back.

”Here, there is plenty left, so please let me know if you need more.”

Because superhumans eat a lot. I also eat a lot more than before.

At this table alone, there are four superhumans, one fairy and one fairy (guess). Because there are so many ingredients consumed in one meal, I tend to intentionally prepare plenty of rice.

“Hayul… ! After all, I only have you… !”

Hong Yeon-hwa’s eyes became moist after receiving the rice bowl.

The figure was clearly visible through the dense fog.

Her flowing red hair and sparkling pretty eyes looked even more beautiful today.

“Heehee.”

I smiled brightly. Grumbling… Perhaps because the fire was burning inside in real time, the joy was even greater.

.

.

.

Because of the ordeal of Gyeophwa, I skipped most of the lectures.

I complained that I could handle the schedule, but was immediately suppressed by the people around me.

He massaged his cheek a lot, wondering why he was going to wander around alone when he was in such a bad state.

[…] You don’t have to miss out because of me… ]

The problem is that I am not the only one who skipped the lecture.

I hesitated and looked around. It was approximately 10 o’clock in the morning. Even though the lecture would have been in full swing, Hong Yeon-hwa and Baek A-rin remained around me.

“No, you have to leave. Do you know when the scaremongering will run rampant? If something suddenly happens while you’re alone, you can’t pass it off as a joke.”

[I can control it… I was able to do it alone last time… ]

“Uh-huh, write!”

“Yeonhwa… ”

Eventually, I had to receive intensive care for a while.

Of course, we are not going to suppress the fear by just throwing in the spear.

Although it is said to be an ordeal, it is ultimately a phenomenon that appears because the world is fundamentally changing.

In the end, rather than just suppressing it, a process of accepting and adapting was necessary.

Therefore, at such times, I had to control the fear by meditating alone, with Hong Yeon-hwa and Baek A-rin as fire extinguishers by my side.

“Don’t hold back too much. If you suppress your desires too much, they will burst out of their tight place… That’s right, yes, like this~”

… There were some embarrassing moments, but I am slowly getting over my anger.

The question is why homogenization remains in the body even after homogenization is turned off.

The moment the original homogenization is released, all the energy that has changed in the body returns to my original magical power.

But now, for some reason, there was no sign of my fear going away.

‘I’ll have to check this after the ordeal is over… ‘

* * *

After Lee Ha-yul became more comfortable controlling the wildfire through meditation, he trained to control the wildfire even in combat situations through simple sparring.

Wow… Hong Yeon-hwa grabbed her sword tightly.

A strong grip tightened the handle, and the magical power poured into the blade condensed into strength. A bright red river swelled like a flame.

Pull the sword above your head. A body in which rigid body techniques are manifested. He pulls his leaping body back like a bow, spreads it wide, and puts all of his moving power into his sword to strike down.

Slashing using strong body techniques and strong techniques. If Hong Yeon-hwa’s physical ability is added to this, even a sword that is not sharpened and is as big as a body can easily bring down a building.

“Lower pressure… !”

The powerful force tore through the air and hit the spear pole.

– Ugh… !

A loud noise that cuts off the spear pole and shatters the entire ground… .

I didn’t hear the sound I expected.

What Hong Yeon-hwa heard in her ears was not a booming sound that exploded and collapsed the ground, but a long-lasting sound.

The window received a strong blow.

It wasn’t broken or cut.

It fell down as if a trampoline was holding a heavy object, and the arm was thrown away with great repulsion.

– Quang!

“Ugh!”

The sword is pushed away. Hong Yeon-hwa’s body floated into the air. Only then did her red hair flutter in the harsh wind.

Hong Yeon-hwa quickly stretched out her hand. Before the tip of the spear reached me, I released magical power through my palm.

Crrr! The red magic power released without considering fuel efficiency pushed the opponent away and pushed Hong Yeon-hwa’s body.

A body that was easily pushed aside due to its fiery nature. The moment Hong Yeon-hwa, who had widened the distance, landed on the ground, this time they approached from the window.

The opponent lunges at you as if grazing the ground, as if not giving you any time to spare. Hong Yeon-hwa also responded to the sight of Lee Ha-yul stabbing at the spear with her white hair fluttering.

My posture has already been adjusted. He gripped the sword tightly and slashed forward.

The arm that lifted the rigid body as high as possible moved, leaving an afterimage. Soon, countless bright red slashes were drawn forward.

A violent attack that does not distinguish between truth and truth. The moment a monster of a decent rank was attacked, a pure white force suddenly intervened in the attack that would have been split into small pieces.

Like a loach muddying a puddle, it slyly flowed in and scattered the attack.

Kkwagagang! The slash hit the rough ground. Lee Ha-yul suddenly appeared, fighting the rising dust that accompanied the heavy drinking.

The distance narrowed. Swords and spears were produced.

The window hits first. Hong Yeon-hwa set her goal as an interception of Changgyeok, not Lee Ha-yul.

– Let’s go!

The armed forces were tangled together in disarray. Rivers of different colors scrape and push against each other.

‘no… ‘

Red is pushed out. The strength is being chipped away.

A window peeks in between the two.

Hong Lotus’s attack is often compared to strong. Infuse as much strength as you can into faithful fundamentals and honestly defeat your opponent. The honest path is strengthened by filling it with Hong Yeon-hwa’s experience and intuition, and the killing power is increased by combining it with Gyeong-hwa.

Powerful attacks are canceled before they even arrive, and checks are reversed and thrown away helplessly.

Lee Ha-yul’s spearmanship is… If I were to be honest, it was a mistake. As if flowing along a smooth waterway, the crow catches the chang-eun-gang-gyeok and releases its power to an unexpected place.

It was also a fantasy. It was difficult to read the next action in the window, where the image was blurred, as if it were covered in a hazy fog.

Next time…

Boom! Thunder flashed through the fog. A spear that flashed like a flash of lightning pierced my consciousness.

– Cock

Immediately, the tip of the spear strikes away all the swords that were swung and hits the solar plexus.

Hong Yeon-hwa’s expression became blank.

Although I was wearing Ganggi like armor, I don’t think I would have been hurt at all even if I hadn’t been wearing it.

Even while the spear is being stabbed, it is a gentle touch, as if he is worried about getting hurt.

While Hong Yeon-hwa was shaking, Lee Ha-yul jumped up and widened the distance.

‘How many times already?’

This is a pattern that has been repeated several times. We hit each other, and before we know it, the spear is touching our bodies. At the same time, Lee Ha-yul widens the distance…

“Yap… !”

Baek A-rin jumped in.

Baek A-rin is back after being blown away by a big attack earlier.

He grabbed the same blunt blade and rushed towards Lee Ha-yul.

Lee Ha-yul, equally holding the spear, responded.

– Cock

“Oh.”

The aspects were similar. Like Hong Yeon-hwa, Lee Ha-yul and his armament collide, and before we know it, Lee Ha-yul’s spear tip hits Baek A-rin and falls out.

“Eight!”

Baek A-rin did not give in and pursued Lee Ha-ryul. A vortex became entangled in the raised left arm. Damn it! Frost formed on the blue river that was entangled like a coil.

Vortex Crushing Soul Ground. At the same time that Baek A-rin fired a strike, Lee Ha-yul also held out her palm. A vortex made of pure white steel was wrapped around the right hand as well.

Their palms met at one point. Crrr! Subsequently, different vortices poured out and mixed together, like a dam overflowing.

At that moment, Baek A-rin clasped Lee Ha-yul’s hand, which was facing her.

While the vortexes were chaotically entangled, the other hand released the spear and wrapped it around the river.

Damn it! A strong force composed of cold air was wrapped around and water was poured out…

– Cock

“Oh.”

Lee Ha-yul released the clasps of her hands and twisted her wrists. The wind around my hand twisted and the vortex was disrupted.

The shot water pierced Lee Ha-yul’s shoulder. Sigh! The feel of metal, not leather or steel. Irrigation did not leave even a scratch on the top-quality artifact.

In the midst of all that wasted time, a fist pierced my consciousness and struck my chest.

Another virtual blow allowed.

Baek Arin blinked blankly.

Then he covered his chest with both arms and shouted loudly.

“… Why do you keep targeting my chest? This is sexual harassment!”

[What]

[no!]

[It’s not like that… !]

For the first time since entering sparring, Lee Ha-yul’s sharp momentum faltered.

His stiff complexion loosened, and he expressed his strong denial with gestures, flapping his arms like a penguin.

“Now!”

Without missing the moment, Baek A-rin stabbed in the spear. Hong Yeon-hwa, who was next to him, also suddenly attacked.

[profit]

[You’re cowardly… !]

It was not an effective hit.

.

.

.

“Ugh… Let’s take a break for a moment.”

– Jang

Baek A-rin flopped down in her seat.

He roughly threw the dull spear nearby, rested his butt on the green lawn, and sighed as if he was tired.

– … Puhuhu…

Seeing Baek Arin like that, Lee Ha-yul also took a deep breath.

Maybe it’s because I’m moving my body a lot, but I’m feeling scared. Strange memories keep coming back to me, and unpleasant memories that I had put down on the floor also surface.

My body is wet and wet with sweat. Heat builds up in your body and you sweat too easily. The surrounding area only smells good… Although I’m saying something embarrassing… I couldn’t help but be worried.

To release some of the heat, I took a deep breath, exhaled, and flopped down on the floor.

“… … ”

Hong Yeon-hwa also relaxed her posture. I blinked my eyes blankly, leaning on the sword stuck upside down on the floor.

The cadets achieved great growth while going through the growth tower.

It is growing rapidly thanks to the growth protection that is applied on a regular basis, and an additional multiplier has been added to it inside the tower.

To add a bit of exaggeration, there are significant changes to the body just by breathing inside the tower. For five days in that place, I moved my body to its limits and wielded my weapons.

It’s an environment where you have no choice but to grow even if you don’t want to.

In particular, tremendous growth was achieved through the ‘contemplation’ of this standing pagoda.

A struggle with oneself embodied as an individual entity. It was a place of more valuable growth than I could have imagined.

In order to understand one’s strengths, weaknesses, and levels, people often seek advice from a third party or evaluate themselves from an objective perspective.

Through this contemplation, I was able to clearly feel my level of objectiveness.

They say one action is more important than a thousand words. In a similar vein, things that were invisible no matter how much I pointed out from the outside began to come into view.

own strengths. In what situations do you shine and are there any outstanding elements? I knew what difficulties and inconveniences it would be like to deal with.

own shortcomings. I felt in what situations my shortcomings were greatly highlighted and what points were easy and fatal to dig into from the opposing perspective.

In a way, it’s time to reflect on yourself… It was literally a time of contemplation.

Hong Yeon-hwa also grew a lot through this entry into the pagoda.

I am proud that my physical ability and magical power have increased significantly, and my technical skills have also grown significantly.

Something tickled a corner of my head, and I felt like I could soon manifest my unique abilities in the technology field.

When Hong Yeon-hwa thought that far, she thought back to the battle just now.

To put it bluntly… It was overwhelmingly applied.

There was no excuse for not using fear.

This sparring is a hand-to-hand combat that only allows strong body techniques and strong techniques. The conditions were the same for Lee Ha-ryul.

That was even after working together with Baek A-rin.

I was simply overwhelmed in terms of skill.

I was confident that I had grown a lot from the top of my head, but when I saw Lee Ha-yul’s growth ability, I became discouraged.

‘… What the hell… ‘

Special admission student. A cadet of potential first selected by the owner of the Tower of Growth.

I feel like the value of the name has been confirmed once again.

‘So you have to try harder.’

Hong Yeon-hwa strengthened her eyes. Although I was overwhelmed, I wasn’t frustrated. I couldn’t afford to do that.

Hong Yeon-hwa must become stronger in order to protect Lee Ha-yul, who keeps getting caught up in accidents and returning as a first-time prosecutor.

“?”

It was around this time that I took a deep breath and made that promise.

I felt eyes staring at my skin.

– Baaaan…

The owner of the gaze is Lee Ha-yul, who is sitting on the lawn.

The eyes that were closed earlier are now open.

Hong Yeon-hwa blinked and followed the destination of her gaze.

In fact, there was no need for that. This is because I could feel the sticky gaze sticking to my skin.

Lee Ha-yul opens his mouth and absentmindedly steals Hong Yeon-hwa’s breasts… No, I was staring straight ahead.

‘… … ‘

Hong Yeon-hwa looked at her appearance.

Her cleavage was clearly exposed because she was wearing sleeveless clothing.

Steam is rising from the beautifully flushed skin immediately after exercise, and beads of sweat are flowing down the nape of the neck and seeping through the cleavage… A rather obscene sight.

I slowly moved my body. Lee Ha-yul’s gaze followed him openly.

‘Foot.’

A smile formed on Hong Yeon-hwa’s lips.

‘cute… ‘

The gaze is too explicit. It seemed like he had no intention of hiding it.

No, it seems like he didn’t realize that his gaze was caught by Hong Yeon-hwa in the first place.

Lee Ha-yul usually finds it awkward to keep his eyes open.

Maybe he doesn’t know he’s opening his eyes right now.

‘Is it because of fear?’

Also, the gaze is very hot. Lee Ha-yul is constantly emotionally stimulated by the ordeal of Gyeophwa. It might have been natural to be stimulated by such an obscene scene.

Hong Yeon-hwa smiled and crawled across the lawn to Lee Ha-yul.

I’m so focused that I don’t notice even when it gets right in front of me.

A sweet smell passed my nose. Like Hong Yeon-hwa, the scent of Lee Ha-yul, who was sweating profusely, filled the nasal passages.

Hong Yeon-hwa was full of playfulness and placed her lips on the forehead in front of her nose.

– side

The soft and moist texture of the world collided with me.

The blankly opened eyes came into focus.

He blinked a few times and then his eyes widened as if he came to his senses.

“… Hike?”

Then, he makes a loud noise and covers his forehead with both hands. That action is very cute. Hong Yeon-hwa, who gently curved the corners of her eyes, kissed the back of her hand covering her forehead again.

– side

“Ugh… ”

An indescribable sob escaped from Lee Ha-yul’s tightly closed lips.

He looks like he doesn’t know what to do because of shame. The back of my hand was quite hot. It’s been some time since I last cooled off. I just need to do this to cool down.

“Hayul?”

This time I didn’t put it out first. Instead, I tapped my lips with my finger.

Lee Ha-yul, who came to his senses a little, swallowed his saliva.

I feel dizzy. The fever had built up and my senses were blurred. My pupils were spinning. Grumble! I was filled with fear and anger. Emotions were fueled. Desire rises. Ah, Yeonhwa is so pretty, do you want to fool around with her lips? kiss?

A series of inconsistent judgments. A conclusion has been reached. Stick out your lips blankly…

– Tak

At that moment, a hand touched my back.

“Wow, Gyeophwa has already become this strong… ”

“Hehe?”

Cold seeped into my hot body. Thanks to the incoming energy of Changhae, some of my senses have returned.

“Hey! This bitch… ! Why the hell!”

“Yes? What happened suddenly… Hayul, you’re just trying to calm him down, right?”

“That’s why! Why are you disturbing me now?”

“Disturbance? I have never done that~”

“Aaagh!”

Hong Yeon-hwa let out a scream.

.

.

.

“Heeee… !”

Jiyeon Lee ran in, letting out a sound of out of breath.

Without any time to react, he picked me up and buried me in his ample chest.

“… Did they attack as a group?”

Hong Yeon-hwa, who intuited that appearance, slowly drew out her sword.
