Dang. Dang. Dang. Dang.

A quiet room with only the clock on the wall ticking.

Sigh-

The door slowly opens, breaking the silence, and the light from the hallway penetrates into the room.

Eventually, the blonde beauty entered the room, closed the door, and slowly walked away.

She immediately took off her outerwear and sat down with a sigh.

“Whew….”

Slurp-

As soon as I sit down at my desk, I skim through the piled up documents and check only the important ones.

Even though I just came from a meeting, I feel like I’m frowning when I see all the piled up work.

As Team Leader 1 of the Iris Guild, it’s inevitable that my lifestyle has been ruined, but I can’t help but sigh when I see the work piled up even in the middle of the night.

There is a saying that the 1% of elites lead the world.

I know I have to take responsibility as an elite, but it wasn’t easy to return to work, perhaps because I rested too much.

“If I had known it would be like this, I would have come back sooner.”

A week has already passed.

It’s already been a week since Ho-yeon Lee came to Iris Guild, got accommodations, and made a bombshell that quickly ended Irene’s vacation.

She wanted to get things done as quickly as her sweet vacation ended because of that man, but things didn’t go as she expected.

The biggest problem is that the guild leader and Ellis are still missing.

To be precise, he is not missing, but is on a business trip… If there is no contact to this extent, it would be more correct to assume that he is missing.

I have already had the Iris guild members chase after the guild leader.

however… .

“How will the guild members find my father? It would be faster to find someone prettier than me in Paris.”

The name “Emperor of the Night” was not earned through labeling.

If I had been caught by the guild members, the position of Iris guild leader would have been handed over to Ellis a long time ago.

For reference, the probability of finding someone prettier than Irene in Paris is 0%. (Irene’s thoughts)

Since there was no guild leader, the agenda brought by Lee Ho-yeon could not even be started, and in the end, Irene was handling the Iris Guild’s work instead of Lee Ho-yeon’s work.

If it had been like this, I wouldn’t have given back my vacation.

‘Lee Ho-yeon is the problem. ‘Why are you stuck in the dorm after making me give up my vacation because it’s so urgent?’

For the first few days, he stayed in his room doing magic research, but soon he started wandering around the training room and talking to himself.

However, when I came to my senses, I found myself locked in my dorm again.

If I’m going to stay at the Iris Guild, will it help if I teach some magic to the guild members?

Scarlett says it’s magic research, but what kind of magic research is it that you can’t even see its face?

If it weren’t for Hoyeon Lee’s story, there would have been no reason to visit the guild leader like this.

I want to get help, and if it’s that urgent, I need to take action there too.

Why are you locked in your room again?

“… That’s not something to say to a guild that doesn’t even know the guild leader’s whereabouts properly.”

Ugh.

Irene sighed and quenched her appetite.

Who is to blame?

He was the one who decided to help Hoyeon Lee, and he knew that it would benefit the Iris Guild.

Ho-yeon Lee probably didn’t know that he would be like this for a week. From what I heard, they were planning to deal with it quickly and return to Korea.

Irene looked at the documents in frustration, but there was nothing nutritious in the report to the guild leader.

Now it’s not a question of whether or not he’s seeing another woman.

I just hope that something unimaginable doesn’t happen.

Of course, her father is someone who will survive even if he is thrown into hell, so nothing should happen to Ellis.

If something were to happen to that precious child, Irene might follow suit in shock.

You can’t live your whole life just looking at the mirror.

“… Now that I think about it, when your father comes back, isn’t this the first time you and Lee Ho-yeon will be introduced?”

It suddenly occurred to me.

Lee Ho-yeon was an orphan, so it was like the first time the two families met.

The so-called meeting ceremony.

Fortunately, his father and mother were not discriminatory people, so his being an orphan was not a problem at all.

“Still, since this is my first introduction to my father, should I at least wear a suit? But it seems like he’s paying too much attention. Hmm, I’m worried that he’ll come out looking like a loser.”

Hoyeon Lee is not the type of person who dresses well.

The hangers are so good that even if you hang loose clothes on them, you won’t notice them because they fit like a model.

‘okay. There’s nothing wrong with making a good first impression.’

It seems like her father likes Lee Ho-yeon, but you never know.

Plus, there’s Ellis.

As an older sister, I know Alice’s tastes well.

So-called cool-looking clothes.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen Lee Ho-yeon, and my younger brother will like me more if I show him a cooler side.

“Suit… You don’t have to get a custom suit. Even if you send me a ready-made suit, the proportions are fine, so it will look cool.”

If you search the guild warehouse, you will find a surplus of ready-made suits for infiltration.

Just send it to me in the right size.

ding ding.

“Hello. Yes. I’m the leader of Team 1. Please send me the only ready-made suit left in VIP dorm room 301. No, no, it’s for men. Yes, it’s Lee Ho-yeon’s. You can roughly send it.”

Pop.

Irene, who hung up the phone and was about to look through the documents again, frowned.

Still, if you’re giving it as a gift, wouldn’t it be a little rude to send a ready-made suit that’s lying around in a warehouse?

“If you give me the clothes that were lying around in the warehouse as a gift… well, I might feel bad.”

Irene was originally not very interested in the affairs of people other than Ellis, but she soon became quite concerned about Ho-yeon Lee.

The result of a short period of thought. I knew I was wrong.

My thoughts were short.

Irene nodded.

That’s when I tried to call management again.

Thump thump!

[1 Team leader! Are you there!]

“…Who is it? I’m in there, so tell me.”

There is no one in our guild who is willing to knock on the door like that.

Judging by your rude behavior, does your father have come back?

[The guild leader and Miss Ellis are back!]

“I’m leaving now!”

Irene’s eyes widened at the words that followed, and the thoughts about the suit that had been filling her mind just now disappeared.

What is a custom suit?

That’s not important.

My beloved younger brother and troublemaker father have returned.

Irene threw down the documents she was holding and ran out of the team leader’s office.

*

Sreuk-sreuk.

“Now that I think about it, you’re right. How long have I been locked in the lab? I don’t know how many times the sun has come out with the window closed.”

“Today was one week in France. It will soon be 12 o’clock and it will be day 8.”

“Wow… I didn’t even starve to death.”

Yum.

Ho-yeon Lee put the chocolate bar and milk that Scarlett had bought him into his mouth.

Obviously, there was no hunger or thirst during the study, but it was only when food and water entered the mouth that a response occurred.

‘I’m a little disappointed with the result of all the hard work and starvation… ‘I can’t help it.’

A week thrown away.

… I didn’t want to express it that way.

It was unfortunate that I was unable to use the incredible magic called [Hall of the Current Moon], but it did not mean I lost the magic’s accomplishments.

God’s realm.

Laws of the world.

My head still hurts because I heard such nonsense.

But it didn’t make sense to possess this world in the first place.

You should think as positively as possible.

‘The existence of God’s realm means that there is also the human realm. So, as soon as you transcend humans, you become a god?’

… That’s so awkward. That means that Lee Ho-yeon’s magical achievement became a god.

No matter how talented Lee Ho-yeon is in magic, he knows best that it is not to that level.

The gap between humans and God must be enormous.

Hoyeon Lee’s creation of [Hall of the Moon] was a result of coincidences that overlapped.

‘To reach the realm of God in a human subject… That’s against the laws of the world. Then, as long as you don’t step into the realm of God, anything is possible.’

If God’s realm is 100, it goes up to 99. No, up to 99.9999.

I wonder if I can’t accomplish twice what I accomplished once.

If you control magic to its limits, not even the laws of the world will be able to stop you.

Slurp-guk.

Scarlett’s touch wakes Hoyeon Lee from her thoughts.

The clean suit and tie completed in her hands were awkward, but somehow felt good.

“Okay, that’s it. Hoyeon.”

“Scarlett, so why are you wearing this?”

“I don’t know either. I heard it was a gift sent urgently by Lady Irene.”

“I know that because I heard it. Did Irene tell you to wear this?”

“No, but I said it was a gift sent in a hurry. Since I was going to see the guild leader, I think I brought it for my image.”

is it?

Did Irene care for me that much? I think so, but there is no other possibility.

Giving a suit as a gift out of the blue means you should wear it, right?

It was fortunate that I only had casual clothes.

“Isn’t it awkward? It’s my first time wearing clothes like this.”

Cadet uniforms are a type of formal wear, but it was my first time wearing something that could be called a ‘suit’.

As Lee Ho-yeon turned left and right to look at Scarlett, Scarlett blinked blankly and then opened her mouth.

“Really… you were born with a good face. Congratulations.”

match. match.

Scarlett shook her head and clapped her hands.

“Don’t do that because it’s embarrassing.”

“I was truly impressed. At this level, I could easily fry the sisters of the Iris Guild.”

“Please purify your words….”

Why does he like the idea of stir-frying so much?

These are not words that should come out of the mouth of a pretty woman.

“That’s because it’s so amazing. Wow….”

Seeing such pure admiration makes me feel embarrassed… Is it really that cool?

Seeing Scarlett’s reaction boosts my confidence.

Looking at Scarlett’s slightly red cheeks, I felt a little playful at the same time.

Hoyeon Lee smiled while gently stroking Scarlett’s jawline.

“Come closer, Scarlett. I can’t hold back.”

“Huh? You should go see Miss Ellis. What are you talking about?”

“….”

“It may be night, but you must know how to be patient.”

“huh….”

Hoyeon Lee relaxed her shoulders with a sullen expression.

Was the timing really bad? I’ll try it in bed later.

“Now, cheer up. Let’s quickly go see Miss Ellis and the guild leader.”

“Okay. You don’t want to go?”

“I am here as Hoyeon’s secretary. I will discuss the matter with the guild leader personally later.”

“Okay. I have to go quickly. It’s still late.”

I don’t know exactly when the guild leader and Ellis returned, but it would be better to see them quickly before it’s too late.

Hoyeon Lee said hello to Scarlett and then went out of the dorm.

Meanwhile, Scarlett, who was left alone, trembled and collapsed on a chair as soon as Lee Ho-yeon’s magic disappeared.

“… I almost got in big trouble.”

My heart is still pounding.

If it weren’t for the man’s genuinely smiling face that looked like he was joking, Scarlett wouldn’t have been able to resist it.

“Ha, whoa… let’s calm down.”

Scarlett placed her hand on her chest and continued to breathe deeply.

The suit suits you so well, but why do you wear such shabby clothes? That’s like a crime.

When I get home, I’ll have to have a serious discussion with Rebecca and Da-eun.

With that thought in mind, Scarlett stumbled into the room.
