One of the association’s empty offices.
[…] … Yoosung: You might want to go back to the academy right away, but I recommend checking my gift first. It will be a great help in handling your affairs.]
Shin Yu-seong remembered Kang Yu-chan’s last advice and activated the memory crystal in his pocket.
‘… … A gift for me?’
Although he was a close friend of the Master, Kang Yu-chan was such a mysterious person that Shin Yu-seong rarely believed what he said.
Weeeing-
When the pocket recognized the contents of the crystal and emitted a beam in the form of a hologram, Shin Hayun and Lee Hyuk were soon revealed.
– Hayoon. Where is the next place?
– well? As expected, it’s hard to find because there’s only the last part left, right?
As soon as he saw Shin Hayun and Lee Hyuk in the hologram, Shin Yuseong swallowed his saliva at the information power of the Hunter Association.
‘The association already knew that Shin Hayun was secretly obtaining artifacts.’
So, did they reveal that all of Shin Hayun’s preparations were related to Morgan, the witch of dreams, and that she even intended to awaken her power?
‘That won’t be it.’
Shin Hayun was not a fool.
Collecting artifacts without official permission was clearly a crime, but that was not a fatal problem for Shin Hayun, who wore the Shinno clan. He did things in secret simply because he didn’t want to attract attention or get involved.
‘If you were trying to make up an excuse, Shin Hayun would have made up as many as you like.’
Even the Hunter Association couldn’t figure out what Shin Hayun was trying to do now.
‘All the association knows is that Shin Hayun is secretly planning something and that it has something to do with me.’
So, Kang Yu-chan added this.
[It will be a great help in handling your work.]
‘my work.’
That meant Shin Yu-seong had to deal with Shin Hay-yoon. Why?
What hint was there in the video that allowed Kang Yu-chan to immediately connect Shin Yu-seong to this incident?
Ttogak ttogak-
The sound of Shin Hayun’s footsteps scattering.
This ice cave was the tomb of Bingryong Asikalsis, but because the dungeon was completed, no traces could be found.
– It’s such a shame that there’s nowhere to look anymore.
As Shin Hayun scanned the floor with her fingertips and looked disappointed at the traces of mana, Lee Hyuk could hardly understand.
– If you want, I can prepare a replacement artifact. The funds we have raised so far are sufficient.
Lee Hyuk spoke seriously in a calm voice, but Shin Hayoon burst out laughing.
– Replace it? no… … It can never be replaced. What we have is fuel that can burn forever and the embers that will keep that fuel burning.
Shin Hayun paused for a moment and looked towards where the camera was.
– The artifact that will contain that mighty power is… … .
He spoke with eye contact as if telling me to listen.
– There is nothing but dragon hearts.
This is a video that was already recorded a while ago.
However, upon seeing Shin Hayun declaring war on him, Shin Yuseong squeezed the memory crystal he was holding.
‘Shin Hayun… … . ‘The artifact your sister is after is the Dragon Heart?’
But the video didn’t end there.
– don’t worry. Because I’m really sure about the last place I put off.
Shin Hayun focused her gaze on the camera as if showing pride.
Woe!
At the same time, a strong force struck the camera and the screen fell to the ground with a loud crashing sound.
– Hey, this is a drone camera!?
Lee Hyuk’s eyes widened in surprise, but Shin Hayun, who already knew, smiled leisurely.
– Grown adults secretly taking pictures of students.
He knew that the association was following him. Although he will certainly be caught up in troublesome matters, for Shin Hayoon, it is only a minor blow.
Sigh-
Shin Hayun, holding the fallen drone camera, smiled and opened her mouth as if she had guessed who this video would be delivered to.
– … … I’ll be there soon to pick it up, so take care of it with love until then. Understand?
Let’s go!
Shin Yoo-seong opens his hand, unknowingly breaking the crystal with the force of his grip. Pure white powder fell to the floor.
Shin Yu-seong’s stern expression, which had closed his mouth in response to Shin Hay-yoon’s bold provocation, contained a cold anger that had never been shown before.
‘The association… … No, the president of the association said, “Velvet…” … .’
It was very clear who Shin Hayun was targeting, and Shin Yoo-seong and the party members even went against Kang Yu-chan and the association to protect its existence.
Therefore, the moment Kang Yu-chan saw this video, he probably knew that he did not even need to do anything about this matter. Based on what he has shown so far, it is clear that Shin Yu-seong will not back down even if the opponent is Shin Hay-yoon.
When Kang Yu-chan brought Velvet to the lab, it was almost like a test of sorts.
‘… … The moment I got the velvet back and refuted the president of the association. ‘Could the president of the association be confident that I would solve this problem?’
Even in the opposite case, the Hunter Association benefited. If you accept the association’s decision and give up Velvet, you will have the justification to keep it away from Shin Hayun and protect it by keeping it in the research center.
Of course, in this case, the association did not do anything and had Shin Yu-seong resolve Shin Hay-yun.
“I have no choice but to admit it.”
Even if Shin Yu-seong fights to protect what is precious.
“This is my job.”
This was a test for Kang Yu-chan to measure Shin Yu-seong’s competence.

The location of the Hunter Department is capital.
Academy students handle work for guilds and companies, and how much they earn from extracurricular activities has become one of the indicators of competence.
Thanks to this, the work that Hayoon Shin was dealing with was too large in terms of money to be considered students’ work. Contracts worth tens to hundreds of millions were handled with Shin Hayun’s permission.

“As expected, Hayun, you are amazing. “The number of requests has increased noticeably since you became student council president.”
As Lee Hyuk helped Shin Hayun review the documents, he could not help but be surprised by the increase in love calls from companies and guilds.
“It’s not difficult~ Just give the useful guy a decent job. Cut out any trash that is not useful. “That’s it.”
Lee Hyuk chuckled at Shin Hayoon’s answer, which he couldn’t tell if it was humility or not.
“Now it’s you. “Your behavior in the cave yesterday was not like you.”
Shin Hayoon responded to Lee Hyuk’s words while reviewing the documents in a very cold voice.
“It looks like you’ve become very comfortable with me too. “I also talk about my complaints.”
Lee Hyuk realized that he had made a mistake and quickly looked at Shin Hayun.
“are you okay. “You can say that much because you are capable.”
Shin Hayun ignored Lee Hyuk’s rudeness with a cheerful face, as if she had always been like that.
“Still, I had to say it. I wonder how my sister will react. Among the party members, I see some pretty familiar faces… … .”
“Familiar face?”
Since it was a familiar face, Lee Hyuk knew that Shin Hayoon rarely used such expressions.
Which of Shin Yoo-seong’s party members did he know and since when did he say something like that?
But Shin Hayun just shook her head.
“No, it’s not important. What’s really important is that the other person rejected my favor first… … .”
Shin Hayun put down the pen and raised the corners of her mouth as if she couldn’t bear it.
“Now it’s time to pay the price.”
* * *
When Shin Yu-seong returned to the academy after organizing his complicated thoughts, the lights in the clubroom were already turned off.
‘… … ‘It’s time for everyone to return to their dorms.’
Today is a special day, so maybe someone took Velvet to the dorm.
But Shin Yu-seong’s prediction was wrong. As soon as I opened the door, what I saw was the peaceful appearance of Velvet and Adella lying on the bed and hugging each other.
‘You were sleeping in the club room.’
Shin Yu-seong carefully approached the sleeping Velvet and Adella so as not to make even a sound.
‘velvet… … .’
Is it because of Velvet’s great power?
Is it because of his unusual birth?
Following the Hunter Association, even Shin Hayun was targeting Velvet.
‘Velvet is too young to be caught up in something like this… … .’
This was an important time for Velvet to see and learn many things and build memories. And the same goes for Adela.
‘… … Velvet’s presence is Adela’s newfound sanctuary.’
Shin Yu-seong remembered the hot tears that Adela, who was as cold as ice, shed at Ruin Castle.
Just as Velvet needed time, so did Adela. Adela needed healing time to thaw her frozen heart.
Therefore, what Adela needs even more is the presence of Velvet, her new family member.
‘Even if Shin Hayoon aims for Velvet. Nothing has changed. I just have to protect it.’
The moment Shin Yu-seong gathers himself and hands Velvet’s disheveled hair. Adela opened her closed eyes and slowly raised her body.
“… … “You’re here.”
“sorry. late. “Velvet was waiting for you, right?”
Adela spoke while rubbing her eyes, as if she was still half asleep.
“Yes and… … “I also waited a long time.”
With those words, Adela smiled comfortably. Only then was Shin Yu-seong able to shake off her worries and laugh together.
“Of course I should have come in sooner.”
The smile Adela gave was much better than the time Shin Yu-seong spent thinking to shake off distracting thoughts. In a way, she wasted her time.
Kuuk-
Shaking off his distracting thoughts, Shin Yu-seong took Adella’s hand and smiled brightly as usual.
“Let us protect Velvet in the future. always… … “We’re doing this together.”
Adela, who was holding his hand, nodded with a blank face and suddenly hugged Shin Yu-seong.
Woe!
Thanks to this, Shin Yoo-seong and Adella met their eyes from a very close distance.
“Adela?”
Shin Yu-seong asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Adela shook her head and said as if she didn’t know what she was doing.
“Why? just… … “I suddenly wanted to hug you.”
Of course, Shin Yu-seong just smiled, feeling more stable despite the sudden situation.
“huh. “I think I know what it feels like.”
