Joo-yeon was determined to somehow silence Su-hyeon and prevent the dark history of her school days(?) from being revealed to the world, but despite her determination, she was unable to do anything.

It wasn’t that I was afraid of Ra-hee, Su-hyeon’s partner, or of the flames that stood behind Ra-hee.

As for the background, she wasn’t at a level where she was left out.

‘···Of course, Rahee Go is honestly a little scary.’

No, a beam just comes out from your hand?

If you’re serious, you’ll just melt the iron and that’s it?

When people think of the ‘Crimson Witch’, they usually imagine her pulling something like a fireball out of the air and shooting it, but in reality, that is only an external(?) image.

It could be said to be the result of limiting the output of ‘talent’ for show.

How do you know that?

That’s right… I saw it with my own eyes.

So… this is the story of when the Light Crusade, to which she belongs, and the Flame Shroud ended up carrying out a joint attack.

Since the teenage guilds are both cooperative and competitive with each other, I gritted my teeth and engaged in a strategy, thinking that we should never be shown to be inferior in firepower.

I was literally no match for him.

Rahi, that bitch was standing at the front and running around like crazy… Every time a scarlet, almost white ray shot out from the tips of her fingers, everything in its path melted without a trace.

Thanks to this, despite gritting my teeth and working on the strategy, the attack on the crack ended so easily.

I saw such a scene from the royal seat, but wouldn’t it be strange if I didn’t feel scared even after seeing it…?

‘I don’t think the difference was this extreme in the past…’

So, it was like that until the days of the gifted education center.

It was originally like that, but as soon as I made my official debut as a hunter, it suddenly started to grow rapidly… but now it has reached a level where I can’t even think of completely catching up.

‘Did you secretly pick up something good by yourself…?’

Anyway, regardless of those feelings, the reason I couldn’t take action against Su-hyeon was definitely not because I was afraid of Ra-hee.

So rather than saying that…

“The other person is locked in the house and won’t come out, so what should I do…!”

“Yes…?”

“No. Go and do some work.”

The place where I was confined was also a problem.

What if you were stuck in a typical studio apartment or something and couldn’t come out?

They would have either gone looking for him from here or forcibly dragged him out.

But that’s not it, I’m stuck in that girl’s house, Rahee…

If she forced her way into such a place, an all-out war between the Flame Shroud and the Bright Crusade would begin that very day, and she, who prided herself on having her head set straight, could not dare to choose that option.

So, after much thought and deliberation… I made a decision.

Whether it’s Oh Ra-hee or Yoon Soo-hyun, I’ll just ignore it.

What can I do if I don’t even pretend to know anything?

huh? What can you do if you don’t even pretend to see it from this side?

That’s what I thought.

“Hey, it’s been a while. I last saw you at the last event and haven’t seen you since, so it’s been almost three months?”

“···.”

“Time flies so fast~”

Isn’t this…?

It seemed like Rahee had made up her mind.

Although information about me is not widely spread now, I cannot raise my palm and cover the sky.

In other words, it was inevitable that information about me would spread to the industry at some point, and if that was bound to happen anyway, wouldn’t it be better to make it clear to industry officials where I belong before that happens? .

As soon as the party started, Rahee started walking around the theater with me and Ari.

And as I was dragged here and there… the fateful moment finally arrived.

“Ah, I wondered where he was hiding, but there he was.”

When I see you talking, does this person know you?

As soon as she could think of that, a name that was familiar to her ears popped out from between Rahee’s lips.

“Hey! Jooyeon Han!”

In a moment of unbeknownst to me, Juyeon’s head, who was chatting with partygoers from afar, seemed to have reacted to Rahee’s voice, turned towards us.

And then…

Poof!

‘ignore?!’

I went back towards the direction I was originally looking at.

And at that moment I saw.

No… I had to see it.

A smile that sends chills down Rahee’s face spreads across Rahee’s face.

Is this how a cat would react after discovering an interesting toy?

“Hmm…”

Rahee grinned and made an unusual nasal noise, and soon began to take long strides towards Juyeon.

And almost at the same time… the miracle that was said to have unfolded in the waters off the Red Sea long ago was recreated at the party.

People step aside to the left and right, watching Rahee’s attention.

Thanks to this, what was completed was the royal road leading to where the main character was.

The main character who chose the option of ‘ignoring’ in front of Ra-hee’s call, did he not know that the situation would turn out this way?

Juyeon hurriedly tried to leave with a look on his face that anyone could tell was embarrassed… but the opponent was not just Rahee, but ‘Rahee Mk.2’, who learned martial arts from me and powered up.

Thanks to this, there is a huge difference in physical ability, and even unlike Rahee’s wide-open path, Juyeon’s surroundings are filled with people who come to greet her, who can be said to be the host of the party.

The encirclement and destruction that only legends tell of unfolded around Juyeon… It was virtually impossible for Juyeon to avoid the spot until Rahee reached her destination.

I wonder if Juyeon didn’t know that fact.

It was already too late anyway, so Juyeon seemed to have decided to deal with it resolutely rather than showing his appearance of awkwardly running away while people were watching, and turned around to face us as if he had never done that before.

“It’s been a while? The last time I saw you was at the last association event, so it’s been almost 13 months since I last saw you?”

“···.”

“Time really flies~”

Of course, Juyeon’s resolve began to waver like a lantern in the wind as soon as he found me standing next to Rahee.

‘···aha.’

Now I see that it wasn’t that he was avoiding Rahee, he was avoiding me…

Well, confessing to me and then getting dumped must have been a huge black story from his perspective.

I guess I don’t want to bring it up now.

…That’s right.

There was already a part of me that got a little annoyed thinking about old things, so I thought I should scold him if I could.

Now, here’s the problem.

In the past, I got back together again after a few years with someone who had confessed to me with bad intentions and then dumped me. What would be the most humiliating thing you could hear in that situation?

That’s right…

“Who is it?”

‘So who are you?’, I guess.

So, I tried my luck like that, but I wonder if Rahee also read something dark in my remark that if you pretend, you pretend.

An amazing pass came from right next to me.

It was a pass so perfect that even the three idiots who conquered Europe with passing soccer back in the day would cry.

“What, don’t you remember? It’s Han Joo-yeon. Jooyeon Han.”

“Juyeon Han? Who was that…”

“Why… during the days of the gifted education center…”

“Ah, that…! Rahee, the kid who always picks fights with you?”

Were those words decisive?

Ra-hee, who was performing a perfect performance, let out a sound like ‘Puh-huh…!’ from between her lips.

It was at that moment that red energy exploded onto Juyeon’s face, who was barely maintaining his composure.

Of course, I had no intention of ending it here.

The expression that appeared on his face as if something had just occurred to him was, of course, a build-up to that goal.

“Hmm? Wait a minute… did you say Han Joo-yeon? Now that I think about it, you… a long time ago, to me…”

And with that expression on his face, he acted as if he was going to say something right away…

“Now, wait…! It’s been so long since we last met. Instead of staying here like this, why don’t we move to a quiet place for a while?”

Juyeon quickly stepped forward to cover my mouth.

“Huh? Why?”

“The place is a bit crowded to talk about the past. Isn’t that right?”

“Hmm… There are definitely a lot of people around.”

“Right? Still, I just wanted to get some rest.”

Contrary to her evil-woman-like appearance, she’s just desperate…

Well, you want to stop at all costs from exposing the dark history of confessing to a man in front of so many people and then getting kicked out.

“Yes, what do you think?”

“Hmm… I’m sure my feet are a little tired from having to rush around.”

“Ari, what about you?”

“I also want to get some rest. I was looking forward to it because it was a party, but I guess parties don’t suit me well…”

“That’s right? Then can you guide me?”

“···Sure, follow me.”
