MEMORIZE Chapter 241

00241 The time to raise them has passed ———————————————————– —————————-=

After Ha-yeon Jeong closed the door and left, only Yu-jeong and I were left in the room. When I called Yujeong, she just kept her head down in that posture. After staring at her like that, I opened my mouth in a quiet voice.

“Come closer.”

Yujeong did not answer. However, he seemed to have clearly heard what I said and began to take one step or two with difficulty. As soon as I looked up at Yujeong’s face, who was standing close to me, I could see her eyes looking down with a downcast expression.

And then I gently reached out my hand and lightly stroked her stomach.

“Ouch… ! Oh, brother?”

“Is your stomach feeling okay?”

“Uh, huh?”

“I got pierced once when I was exploring a cave before. Now that I think about it, I feel like I haven’t paid much attention to him since I left Mule. “Are there any aftereffects?”

Before I knew it, Yujeong’s face was filled with embarrassment. I thought there was going to be an angry call, but when I asked him about his condition in a kind voice, he seemed to have no idea what to do.

“Yep! Although it left a little scar… . “But there is no problem with moving.”

“thank god.”

As I smiled in relief, Yujeong finally began to make eye contact with me. Although she still had some left, her initial anxiety had faded. Soon, Yujeong and I’s gazes intertwined in the air, and I slowly opened my mouth.

“If you ask me why I was the only one left behind… . “I left it because I had something else to say.”

“brother. It’s my fault.”

“Yoojeong. You have to listen to what your brother says until the end. And from now on, don’t say anything that you did wrong.”

“huh?”

I personally pulled a chair and sat Yujeong down, who was still standing. Meanwhile, she kept smoothing her hair. Yujeong’s hair, dyed a light red, caught my eye.

“First of all, I’m sorry. “I know what you all think of Hanbyeol, but I’m sure you were very surprised that he was suddenly brought here without saying a word.”

“Oh, brother? No, brother! do not say that! Do not be sorry!”

“huh?”

“I’ve been the one trusting and following you until now. This time too, I’m sure you have your own reasons. For a moment, I couldn’t control my anger and acted immaturely. I’m sorry, brother! So please don’t say that… .”

Yujeong reacted so violently to my apology that her hair fell from side to side. I watched her quietly, lost in her thoughts, waiting for her to calm down. Considering Yu-jeong’s behavior so far, there are definitely some things that are annoying. Would you say it’s like a cat with sharp claws?

Nevertheless, this was precisely the reason why I did not kick her out. If you think about Jeong Ha-yeon’s attitude when she used the Truth Crystal on me in the ruined laboratory, you can roughly guess the feelings Yu-jeong has for me.

Yujeong’s claws were never aimed at me.

“Again, I understand your feelings. It might be different from what I think. Still, I have no intention of forcing my position on you.”

“brother… .”

“But we have to point out the mistakes, right? “What I want to point out is your attitude during the meeting.”

Yujeong adjusts her posture. It seems like he wants to show that he will listen to what I have to say. I smiled to myself and continued speaking in a calm voice.

“I don’t want to think of you as kids anymore. okay. Even so, Ansol has circumstances… . “I think you and Ahn Hyun can think and act normally.”

“… … .”

“That’s why I added ‘user’ in front of your names just now. From now on, I want to treat you like a proper clan member. “You know at least a little bit about how the hole plane works right now, right?”

Yujeong silently nodded. His expression was becoming more serious as he realized the seriousness of what I was saying.

“The situation is going very chaotic. And among them, Mercantilery is attracting the attention of numerous users. And users will judge the Mercenary Clan by looking at me, you, and us. You are no longer new users, but Mercenary Clan members. “Then, is it wrong for me to expect Yujeong to behave as a member of the Mercantile Clan?”

“Ugh… .”

“It was like that just now. It was time to introduce myself and Hanbyul at a formal event where everyone gathered. What would other clan members think if you sarcastically say that it smells like a traitor? It’s not just Hanbyul who gets criticized. “I’m sure she’ll think it’s strange that I brought her here, and I’m sure you won’t look kindly on me for ruining the mood of her important meeting.”

“I’m sorry, brother… . I never thought it would go that far… .”

‘I didn’t know.’

“So that’s it for today.”

I stared at Yujeong with a gaze filled with coldness. She, too, must have sensed the sudden change in my gaze, so she flinched and closed her mouth. What I’m going to say now was a kind of ultimatum on my part. Even if it meant setting the tone a little, it was necessary to say it clearly so that Yu-jeong could clearly remember it in her mind.

“okay. I don’t think you knew. okay. You might not know. But that only goes so far. “I’ve said it before, but I really hate saying it twice.”

“… … .”

“I said I understand how you feel. I’m not saying I’m going to close my ears. From now on, if you have any complaints, you can file a complaint through formal procedures. Or prepare a separate, private space. Do you understand?”

“yes.”

It wasn’t until Yujeong looked like she was about to cry that I decided to stop pushing her. A moment of silence passed. After waiting a bit, I lightly stroked Yujeong’s head. After loosening and tightening the atmosphere, it was now time to loosen it again.

“When you cried when you saw me come back alive from the Inn of Beginning. When I collected money from the kids at the square and handed it to me. When you embraced me in the ruined laboratory. I remember everyone. “I am truly grateful that you have believed in me and followed me so far.”

“brother… .”

“But I am now Clan Lord of the Mercenaries. I am in a position where I cannot favor just one person. And as the number of clan members increases in the future, I will have less time to worry about you guys. If something similar happens again, I won’t ignore it simply because it’s my kids. “For me, for you, and for the Mercantile Clan.”

“sorry… .”

I deliberately said, “My kids.” The word was emphasized. Yujeong nodded her head and wiped her eyes with her hand. I hoped that she understood what I said, so I grabbed Yujeong’s shoulders and got up from her chair together.

“don’t cry. “Do you think what I said was harsh?”

“Ugh. no. Now that I think about it, I think what you said is right. “I’ll keep that in mind in the future.”

“Let’s unify our speech. “I’m suddenly confused.”

“huh. “Clan Lord.”

“also.”

When he told a light joke, Yujeong burst out laughing even though she was crying. The expression was so bizarre that it was difficult to describe. I held her hand and walked her towards her door. Yujeong hesitated, but then she slightly leaned her body on my shoulder.

Thinking that Hayeon was waiting, I quickly opened the door. I was planning to end today’s conversation at this point.

“I was able to have many conversations with Hanbyul before coming here. She seems like she had a very hard life at the Golden Lion. However, she had the will to start over, and she seemed to want to change herself. So, I hope you all will put your preconceptions aside for a moment and watch. “At least for now, until she gets used to it.”

Yujeong didn’t respond to what I said. However, I could feel her head nodding slightly as she leaned on my shoulder.

*

After taking Yujeong down to the first floor. I left the Love House while being seen off by my clan members. And when I went outside, I could see Hayeon and Vivian waiting for me, chatting loudly with each other.

‘If you think about it, it would have been difficult for those two to become friends. In a way, it’s amazing. ah. ‘Is it difficult to say they are close?’

As I walked down the stairs and approached them, they smiled brightly and welcomed me.

“Su-hyun. You are here now. “Did Yoo-jeong scold you a lot?”

“What did you two talk about?”

“Rather than scolding… . We just talked about this and that. “Then shall we go see the clan house that Ha-yeon Jeong showed us?”

“yes. I will explain the details as we go. “Let’s go somewhere nearby first.”

Soon, Hayeon took a seat to my left, and Vivien took a seat to my right. As she continued to walk, she slowly began to talk.

“You told me not to think about the price, but I put a lot of thought into choosing a location. As you know, Monica is one of the most stable cities in the North Continent. “The land price is the land price, but the cost of erecting the building is also enormous.”

“It’s probably because he’s a free mercenary. Because he doesn’t get the discount. Anyway, since Mercenary is a mercenary clan, I thought it would be better to establish it in a place with the best accessibility to receive requests and operate it. “I would like to avoid places that are too remote if possible.”

“You are saying that you will confidently take your place in the sun.”

“Yes. “There is no history of mercenary clans being officially launched in Hall Plain yet, right?”

If you meet the expectations of those users, the mere fact that you created a clan can be considered amazing. However, no matter how much permission has been granted for creation, there is a clear gap between clans. One fact that could determine the gap was whether or not the clan house was owned.

Having your own home in Hall Plain can be seen as solving the problem of lodging and food. Here, if we expand the concept of an individual into a clan, the fact that a clan owns a clan house has a meaning that goes beyond accommodation.

From the perspective of general users, it was true that they would trust a clan that was established in one place rather than a clan that wandered from place to place without a home. This allows us to show off the fact that we have excavated numerous ruins, successfully explored them, and achieved results. This fact can be especially highlighted in Monica, a small city with a reputation for stability and high land prices.

“While attending the User Academy this time, I was able to feel the position of Mercenary. We still have a lot to focus on. Recruitment of Gem Wizard and God’s Shield. There is also the fact that a clan that has been in existence for over 3 months has purchased a clan house. And the fact that it is a mercenary clan.”

“I guess it’s inevitable to be envious and jealous.”

“Anyway, I was prepared from the moment we announced our launch. It would be difficult to say that only good things will happen in the future. So there was a need to re-arm the minds of the clan members.”

“I understood. ah. “Here.”

After talking with Hayeon, I was able to arrive at my first destination. I turned my head and looked at the surrounding streets. Low-class taverns, low-class inns, old-looking shops. Although it was a busy area, the streets were overflowing with users who seemed to be making a living rather than those who made a living through combat. If I were to compare it, it could be said to be a similar place to Barbara’s Street at Night.

Of course, in Hol Plain, selling one’s body was a means of survival, so it was not something that was viewed as a very valuable thing. However, it was true that I was a little nervous because it was nothing more than finding a home in the city where I would be working for a while.

“Now that I think about it, it’s close to the Love House.”

“Hehe. Let’s go in first. “I’ll go in and tell you.”

“Can I just come in?”

“yes. “The clan lord of Istantel Row said you can come and go as much as you want.”

‘Han So-young?’

Clearly, Jeong Ha-yeon said there was something she wanted to talk to me about regarding the purchase of the clan house. As soon as she heard her words, she could intuitively feel that it was related to the Istantellow Clan.

“I see you made contact there.”

As I spoke with a quiet voice, Hayeon looked around and nodded slightly.

“All right. You said you had permission to enter, right? “Let’s go in first.”

“Kim Soohyun! Kim Soohyun!”

“why.”

“I also want to tell you something. “Let’s just talk together.”

Vivien was pouting with a sullen face. Perhaps he felt left out when he came here because he only talked to me and Hayeon.

Hayeon laughed lightly at Vivien’s words and walked forward. Although she was a little rusty, she pushed open the door, which looked quite heavy. And while Hayeon was opening the door, I gently reached out my right hand and slapped Vivian’s butt. The plump, comfortable feel of his hand flowed through his palm without any filtering.

“Let’s go in and talk.”

“Hvieh!”

Vivien jumped up.

—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=

hello. This is Ro Yujin.

First of all, I would like to apologize to those who were looking forward to attending today. _(__)_ This is none other than I am currently preparing for the upcoming final exam. Of course, not only are there final exams, but the assignments that come with them are also coming like a bomb. ㅜ.ㅠ So, I need to adjust my pace for a while. ㅇㅅㅇ

If Part 2 is not uploaded on a public holiday, you can assume that I am studying hard and doing my homework. 🙂 Since there is still some time left, I plan to make a reserve, but if I have to take a break, I will make sure to leave a notice. (I am having a mental breakdown because I heard that two of my major subjects include the scope of the midterm exam. .)

『Reripple』

1. Miwolya: Congratulations on first place. The two of you are taking turns sharing the first prize! ha ha ha. Please enjoy this episode as well. 🙂

2. Sereson: Bia! You’re back again. Congratulations on your return. ^ㅂ^/

3. Rapir and Jint: Rather than training(?) oil wells, it ended up just admonishing them appropriately. You can’t push it too hard. Haha, I hope you like it.

4. dsafddd: There is still some elixir left. It will appear after this episode ends. 😀

5. koaa123: I think we need to push Hayeon and Yujeong. Kelkelkkell!

6. Nepnichov: Yes. This time, I hit Vivian. (?!)

7. rlatjdwn512: No. To be honest, I think this is a matter of taste. I think it would be great to have a girlfriend like Yujeong. ‘3’

8. I’m dying: Soohyun probably didn’t want the relationship between the kids and Hanbyeol to be resolved right away. hehe. Hanbyeol is showing her will, and I hope that the kids will feel a lot from seeing her change rather than blindly rejecting her.

9. Ethersion: It should be so, but I think everyone is expecting too much from the elixir. ㅜ.ㅠ Angel’s Tears cost +6 points and hundreds of thousands of GP. Of course, there is an advantage to not being limited to physical strength and being able to increase it to suit your taste, but some people said +15… . LOL

10. Dark Side: Please forgive me for not being patient. ㅜ.ㅠ I don’t know about Yujeong. Now that Soohyun has issued an ultimatum, I hope to see her show a good performance in the future. ha ha ha.

Thank you for always reading. Your recommendations and comments are of great help.
