Shi-woo was bothered by Cheol-jin’s last words in his reply.

“What do you mean See-hee is a special case?”

Shi-woo asks as if he can’t understand Cheol-jin’s words.

“Ah~ I didn’t tell you this either, so you wouldn’t know, right? It seems like until Se-jin’s older sister, your family was trying to educate the daughters like that too. But it seems like they stopped for some reason in the middle…”

“Se-young is going to the magic academy now, right? The magic academy was originally created for that purpose…”

“As an institution that attracts and educates new members who have newly encountered and participated in master-servant relationships or incestuous relationships, or the members’ children or family…”

“In the end, you have to think that everyone in your house except See-hee has been or is being educated! Including Se-jin’s older sister and Se-young.”

After listening to Cheol-jin’s story and answer, Shi-woo remains silent as if he is speechless for a moment.

He had been vaguely feeling it, but Se-young’s strange actions and words had been fitting into the empty parts of the jigsaw puzzle board, filling in the outlines of the overall picture.

**

His head was dizzy from the flood of information, but still, he seemed to get the overall outline or flow.

“Did Seul-gi tell you all that in the bead room? I don’t think I was in the room for that long, but how do you know so much detail?”

Shi-woo asked with a slightly doubtful expression after hearing Cheol-jin’s story.

Cheol-jin smiles as if he had been waiting for that moment after hearing Shi-woo’s question.

“Shi-woo, after finishing the consultation at the magic academy with you, we were going to go home, right?”

“We decided to keep the stories we shared inside a secret… Do you remember what you were like then?”

“You were talking to me with a dazed look, as if you had seen real superpowers or magic in front of your eyes?… Kekekeke.”

Cheol-jin burst into laughter as he recalled the conversation he had with Shi-woo after finishing the correction consultation he had received at the academy.

“Ah, damn it! Stop talking about that! Who wouldn’t be fooled when they deliberately called me to the academy?!”

Shi-woo says to Cheol-jin as if shooting at him, in a slightly annoyed voice.

“What would you have done without me? Puhihit…”

Cheol-jin smiles playfully as if he is very happy and talks to Shi-woo as if teasing him.

Shi-woo shakes his head and sighs deeply as if he is tired of Cheol-jin’s persistent teasing.

“Hmm… Anyway~ we said goodbye like that then, right? I was going to go straight home and look for more information about the meeting…”

Cheol-jin, satisfied with Shi-woo’s serious reaction, composes his voice and continues to speak…

“But on the way home, my smartphone rang. It was a person I never expected to call at that timing. Can you guess who it is?”

Cheol-jin was smiling meaningfully, as if giving a quiz for a break, and was looking at Shi-woo with a sly look and asking a question.

“W-who is it?”

Shi-woo asks Cheol-jin immediately, unable to hide his impatient feelings.

“Yoo Ye-na! It was a call from that ‘Yoo Ye-na’ teacher, who we just greeted and said goodbye to at the magic academy.”

Cheol-jin said as if revealing a hidden secret, and then was wiggling his face as if he was preparing to say more.

**

“Y-Yoo Ye-na teacher, why? What else did she need to talk to you about?!”

Shi-woo, who was surprised this time after hearing Cheol-jin’s story that he had received a call from Yoo Ye-na teacher, asked with wide eyes.

“She asked me if I could come back there alone to talk about something? I said okay~”

Cheol-jin smiles with a sense of superiority and says as if looking down on Shi-woo.

Shi-woo had no choice but to keep listening to Cheol-jin’s story.

“But she told me to come to the cafe in the basement, not the magic academy?”

“You know that event cafe in the basement of the building we were talking about earlier? The one named ‘The Witch and the Cat’…”

“I said okay and immediately turned my steps towards the magic academy building. I had disguised myself and gone inside that cafe a few times before, so it didn’t feel that unfamiliar.”

“If you go down, you’ll find a maze-like corridor decorated with a forest path concept.”

“Log sofas that look like they were placed for people waiting are lined up as if they were fallen on a forest path…”

“If you walk along the corridor, you’ll see the entrance to the cafe, which is made of glass doors, and if you open that door, you’ll arrive at the cafe’s hall, which is decorated in a medieval European style.”

“Considering that the entire basement floor is a cafe and the overall building size, the hall feels a bit small, but there is a counter for ordering and paying, a cooking room for making food, and the inside where customers can sit is connected to another place separately from there.”

“Strangely, the entrances to the inside are separate for men and women. Like a bathhouse or sauna.”

“You go inside through a room, but when you actually go inside, you get the feeling that you don’t know why they separated the entrances like that?”

“The inside is like a large main hall, and it was full of luxurious tables and decorations.”

“I remember that there were fancy chandeliers and antique frames decorated, but overall it felt quite cozy.”

Cheol-jin was explaining the structure of the inside of the cafe in quite detail for some reason.

“But the day I went to see Yoo Ye-na teacher, the atmosphere felt unusual from the moment I entered the cafe entrance.”

“The lights in the area where the counter was located were very dim, and the female employee who was there locked the outer glass door as soon as I entered the entrance, saying that she had been waiting.”

“There were rumors about human trafficking, and I was a bit surprised, but what could I do? I had no choice but to follow…”

“The female employee grabbed my hand and quietly dragged me into the men’s entrance leading to the inside.”

“The room inside the men’s entrance, which you pass through when entering the main hall, was surrounded by blackout curtains.”

“The lights were dimly lit, but it was dark enough to barely recognize the person and objects in front of you.”

“I put all my jackets, bags, and smartphones in a basket, and followed the female employee into the hall. Only then did I kind of understand the purpose of that room inside the entrance…”

“Anyway, I followed the female employee inside, but it was so dark that I couldn’t see anything except for the emergency guide lights on the floor.”

“The female employee took my hand and walked to the point where the guide lights stopped, and then she put my hand on the shoulder of another woman who was waiting there… telling me to follow her…”

“Whether she was wearing an off-shoulder or not, the feeling of touching that woman’s shoulder was a smooth feeling of bare skin.”

“Judging from her height, the elasticity of her skin, and her voice, she felt almost the same age as me.”

“It seemed like I was going around the room several times along the way, and then she guided me to a table… At that time, I had completely lost my sense of direction, and I could only faintly feel the sound, smell, and touch…”

“The girl who was guiding me told someone that I had arrived and sat me down… That girl also sat next to me.”

“Then she whispered to me… saying that she was sitting in front of me…”

“That girl’s chest was touching my arm? It was definitely a bare skin feeling… I accidentally touched it with my elbow just in case, and I could definitely feel it… she wasn’t wearing an off-shoulder, she was completely topless.”

“I was so surprised that I couldn’t say anything and stayed still, then I heard a voice from across the street…”

“She said that I had worked hard to get here… that she had called me separately because she had something to say… That was definitely Yoo Ye-na teacher’s voice.”

**

“Before I knew it, my hand was around the waist of the girl sitting next to me.”

“It’s so dark that you can’t even see, and she doesn’t show any particular dislike or rejection even when I touch her.”

“Besides, she was the one who took off her clothes and showed her chest first, so I thought it would be okay…”

“Her breasts were quite big? And very firm… And her pelvis and thighs seemed to be well developed… I definitely thought she was older than me…”

“Moaning sounds were mixed in with her breathing and were heard softly from the side, but Yoo Ye-na teacher didn’t seem to notice, and she kept talking about what she wanted to say.”

Cheol-jin looked straight at Shi-woo with a subtle and subtle smile.

Shi-woo was listening intently to Cheol-jin’s words with his ears perked up and his breath held.

“Originally, they only run the blackout cafe for a few hours in the morning and after lunch with the curtains closed, but she said that she had emptied the cafe that day to talk to me…”

“She knew from before that I was curious about the academy and the meeting and was investigating them…”

“That I was communicating with you, that I was subtly probing Seul-gi, and that I had followed my dad and reached the magic academy…”

“And that I would come to the magic academy with you that day…”
