Chapter Index

    “It’s been a while. Yoo Se-ha.”

    Suokbin smiled brightly.

    I always feel it when I see it…

    ‘He’s a really pretty person.’

    The elf’s unique, non-human beauty still retains its beauty.

    After being dazed for a moment, I came to my senses.

    He smiled and held out his hand towards Suokbin.

    “Yes, it’s been a while. Vice President Su Ok-bin.”

    “Oh my~”

    When he heard that he was the vice president of the association, Su Ok-bin said, ‘Hehe…’ ‘ and laughed.

    “Thank you for recognizing me.”

    “Here, senior Shinbitgaram told us. To become vice president of the association after only half a year… Sincere congratulations.”

    Did he think my words were beautiful?

    Suokbin blushed slightly.

    “Thank you. All of this is thanks to Yoo Se-ha.”

    “No. I haven’t done much.”

    I meant it.

    As Shinbitgaram also said, Suokbin is an excellent person.

    In the end, it just takes a little more time. Moving up would have been a sure thing.

    I only had a few clues for that.

    “… … ”

    Then Suokbin stared at me.

    Just as I was wondering if something was on my face, she burst out laughing.

    “It’s still the same. They say a person’s nature doesn’t go anywhere… I never thought you’d still be so stupidly nice. Lately, as I’ve seen a lot of things and experienced good things, I thought things would get a little darker… You still shine. To the point where I feel ugly myself.”

    “Yes?”

    Jump and jump.

    Suokbin narrowed the distance towards me.

    She, whose height reached right up to my chest, looked up at me and said, ‘Hehe~’.

    Aren’t you narrowing it down too much? She came close to me, drawing a line with her eyes shining like rubies.

    And then he gently hugged me like a warm blanket.

    “Ne, neuen?!”

    “Hoeeng!”

    “Hiyayak!”

    From behind me, I heard the screams of three people.

    My face turned red in an instant.

    There was a fragrant, sweet scent, like properly heated powdered milk.

    Here, um…

    What can I say, the graceful curves and fascinating flesh were pressed all over my body.

    ‘Well, it seems like something like this is happening a lot these days… ?’

    Same with Joo Na-yong…

    Same thing with Pyeongjina…

    Is this really a trend for everyone? ?

    “Bu, tongue, president of the association?”

    “Suokbin will do. If necessary, you can call me sister. or not… Okbin, can I say~?”

    “Ah, yes… Hey, Suokbin… sir. What the heck… ”

    “Hehe, it’s been a long time since we met again. It’s a hug of joy. Isn’t it obvious?”

    hug…

    It’s a bit harsh for me, isn’t it?

    Suokbin smiled.

    He raised his head and put his face towards the nape of my neck.

    After sniffing and smelling, he whispered a voice that seemed to tickle my ear.

    “It smells even more delicious.”

    “… Uh, yes?”

    “It means that you have become much stronger. So much so that you really don’t know. what? Looks like you’re tall too?”

    Suokbin looked up at me and slowly touched my cheek.

    “Hey… now stop… ”

    “Hehe, can’t we just stay like this a little longer?”

    “Well, I’m in trouble… ”

    I turned my face to the side.

    It was difficult to look at her anymore.

    Those ruby-like eyes were full of a magical power that attracted people.

    “… Really, I’m still defenseless. Don’t you know if you’re really going to get caught like this?”

    “… What did you say?”

    “No. Hehehe.”

    Only then did Suokbin let me go.

    I glanced to the side.

    Sinbitgaram, who was crouching down, said, ‘Nuh, nuh! It’s unclean!’ he shouted to soothe his red face.

    Those divine eyes, Natsu & The glass was covering it.

    “Wow, wow, this, this is an extremely promiscuous creature. The power of an elf?”

    “Ho, hoeheh… ”

    “Hehe, I guess this was too irritating for Jammin, who hasn’t even had blood on his head yet?”

    “Jae, it’s not Jammin!

    “Don’t jammin jammin. You mongrel vampire!”

    “Oh my~ You can’t believe you reveal someone else’s family history… This is why Jammin… ”

    “Profit!”

    “Right profit!”

    Suokbin dealt with the saint gaki with some strange hostility.

    On the other hand, I just had a small question answered through words.

    ‘Ah, as expected… ‘

    Suokbin seemed to be both a quarter elf and a vampire.

    Well, I just said elf.

    There is no such thing as saying that the rest are human.

    ‘… ‘What on earth is the family relationship like?’

    The love between an elf and a vampire… … ?

    I’d never heard of anything like that.

    To begin with, currently, about half of elves are treated as monsters, and some vampires are targets of extermination.

    It was not for nothing that the vampires fled to the and settled there.

    ‘There’s probably a complicated story behind it.’

    The chattering conversation soon stopped when there was a knock on the door.

    smart.

    It rattled.

    A woman who appeared to be a worker poked her head in.

    “Hey, saint, nun abbess… And the Vice President?”

    It’s almost time for the meeting to start.

    “Oh my, already… Did Chairman Yoo Neung-hae and the 4th clan members come?”

    “Ah, the chairman is still… He said he would arrive soon. As for the 4th clan, only Team Leader Cho Seol-hwa of has arrived first.”

    “… … Ah.”

    At the name Cho Seol-hwa, Su Ok-bin smiled slightly and delicately.

    The sight made me curious.

    The reaction was a bit hesitant to just say we were acquaintances.

    “Okay. Thank you for letting me know. You can just leave.”

    “Yes.”

    *

    After a while.

    Everyone in the group came out.

    Since I was called to give a reward and had nothing to do with the meeting, I felt like I had to say a sad goodbye here.

    “Later… Do I have to play?”

    “You have to play!”

    “Of course. Jammin saints.”

    “Profit! Don’t call me Jammin!”

    “Don’t do it!”

    I laughed softly.

    I hugged the two saintly girls carefully.

    I stroked the tops of the heads of the two people who were struggling as if they were frustrated.

    Although it was a short relationship, lasting less than an hour, it really warmed my heart.

    I also like that they gave me a generous reward.

    ‘… If I get married later… ‘

    I thought that my first child would be a daughter.

    ‘… crazy?’

    And I was surprised.

    Now I…

    ‘Marriage… ‘

    I thought of luxury… ?

    -Catch it! catch!

    -It is a monster that always brings blood.

    -If you don’t kill him now, the consequences will come later.

    ‘… … ‘

    -Hey, hey. Sometimes I think… Are you really people like us?

    ―No, what kind of operation…? Oh, no. It’s enough as long as it’s efficient.

    Neither you nor I will live long anyway…

    What’s the point of planning a life when there is no one to love you?

    ‘Tsk… ‘

    I thought about something for no reason.

    I thought it was stupid.

    All my life, I’ve been hurting, killing, and being chased…

    What does love mean?

    I let the two go.

    “Junior. Well then, see you later.”

    “Goodbye~Oppa~”

    “Oppa~”

    After waving my hand. Suokbin, who was next to me, came over.

    Now say goodbye to her-

    “-Are you okay?”

    “Uh, yes?”

    Suokbin suddenly says something strange.

    She looked a little worried.

    Hmm? He tilted his head and lifted his forehead against mine.

    “Vice President?”

    “I said it would be okay if it was my older sister~”

    “Oh, no, that’s a bit… Hey, what is this… ”

    Suokbin tilted his head with his forehead pressed against his.

    ‘I don’t have a fever… ‘ mutter. Ah, I sighed softly.

    He then hinted with a slightly sad look in his eyes.

    “Are you distressed?”

    “… … !”

    I flinched slightly.

    “You are suffering from memories of the past.”

    “… How did you know?”

    “I was like that too.”

    He had the same expression as me.

    Suokbin narrowed the distance again and hugged me in her arms.

    Today is already the second time I’ve been hugged…

    I felt something subtly different from before.

    “I won’t ask what the injury is. Because I’m not that moodless woman.”

    “Um, over there… ”

    “But… ”

    Even if you pretend it isn’t the case, in the end, if you continue to neglect the wound, it will accumulate.

    “Treatment is necessary. In order to do that, you may need to show your wounds to others. Only then can the pus be removed and new skin grow.”

    “… that… ”

    “It’s a difficult task. I know. Because I was like that too.”

    “… … ”

    Those words made me a little curious.

    “… Suokbin… How did you overcome it?”

    “Oh my, you couldn’t do it?”

    “Uh, yes?”

    When I was surprised by the unexpected answer, Suokbin smiled brightly.

    “No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t completely fix it. Just because new skin grows doesn’t mean the scars disappear.”

    “Uh… ”

    “But… ”

    As there are people who understand, one by one…

    There is one thing I am no longer afraid of.

    “Thank goodness… Aren’t there at least three people next to Yoo Se-ha who can comfort his wounds?”

    Maha God, Moon Bo-ra, Joo Na-yong.

    “There may be more connections here that I don’t know about. for example… Are you Professor Peng Jin-ah?”

    “… … ”

    “I’m not saying you should do it right now. Even later is fine.”

    Trust them.

    At least you won’t regret it.

    As a bonus…

    “I also hope to become one of Yoo Se-ha’s trustworthy people one day.”

    “… … ”

    I closed my eyes for a moment.

    It hurts…

    It’s the past…

    ‘… To the kids… ‘

    Can I tell you?

    My real past.

    I was silent and slowly opened my eyes.

    I bowed my head.

    To my grateful benefactor who showed me a path I had never thought of before.

    “… Thank you.”

    “Nothing to say… ”

    *

    Now that I was speechless, I asked the question I had felt a little while ago.

    “Hey… ”

    “Hmm?”

    “That… Earlier, when Team Leader Cho Seol-hwa’s name was mentioned, his expression was a bit strange… Can I ask why?”

    “Oh my. I always feel this, but Yoo Se-ha’s senses and judgment are not at a human level.”

    “That’s… Rather, this is what I want to say.”

    Suokbin smiles at my words.

    Soon, um… He crossed his arms with a smiling face.

    “… He is a man of great ability and great loyalty, but… That’s a bit excessive. Should I say it’s presumptuous? I find it a bit disturbing that he seems to be trying to handle everything on his own without even saying anything. What is more problematic is that it is an arbitrary statement without even reporting on the lord it serves. It wasn’t that bad originally, right?”

    “… Yes?”

    “Should I say that I have severe OCD? If there is anything that could pose even the slightest threat to the or successor, there is a strong tendency to ostracize them. very… thoroughly… And that too cruelly. I also bumped into her often.”

    I could tell right away that it was the story of .

    Suokbin looked at me like that and smiled bitterly.

    ‘Can’t you go somewhere and talk?’ The words spilled out.

    “Did you know that the current clan master of is Yeyong Joo?”

    “Oh, I saw it on the news.”

    “Publicly speaking, she has an only daughter… It is known, but it is not true.”

    “Huh?”

    “There was originally an older sister of my daughter who is alive now.”

    I’ve seen it before.

    He was a child as bright as the sun.

    “Unusually, there were concentric circle-like traces engraved in the eyes. Many people thought that was the quality of a king. And the person who assisted her by her side was Team Leader Cho Seol-hwa.”

    “… Wait a minute, concentric circles?”

    “Yes, any problem?”

    “Oh, no.”

    a little… A cool sensation passed through my chest, but it calmed down.

    In the first place, there are countless people other than ‘her’ who have unique patterns engraved on their eyes.

    Of course, in Gosra, the story of Joo Na-yong’s family is not mentioned at all, so there are a lot of things I don’t know at all, so I don’t know.

    However, since there was nothing I could do right now, I decided to skip it for now.

    Suokbin continued speaking.

    The eldest daughter grew up under the care of her mother Joo Ye-yong and Cho Seol-hwa.

    However, it is said that the tragedy came as suddenly as a lie.

    “He died suddenly from an illness of unknown cause. He vomited blood and died right there.”

    “… Sickness?”

    “Yes, just… That disease is not a natural disease… ”

    It was an obvious skill using poison.

    That was also an ability mainly used by .

    “… ! that… ”

    “Yes, it is poisoning.”

    If I had had some time, I would have done whatever it took to heal…

    Because he died on the spot…

    “I couldn’t do anything. It is said that Team Leader Cho Seol-hwa was covered in blood all over his body and frantically took the person to the hospital. It’s already too late… ”

    “… Ah.”

    This…

    This was a bit of a shock.

    Such truth exists in the clan…

    This alone is sad…

    I was even more shocked by what followed.

    “… Crazy, grave robbers?”

    “Yes, there is no time to mourn death… ”

    Even the body of the first daughter was stolen.
