Fairy Eyes (1)
Wow.
The phone rang briefly and then stopped. The screen, which had been black, lit up brightly and then darkened, as if telling me to check it quickly because a message had arrived.
I know what that is. Because I’ve been coming here frequently over the past few days.
But since I knew it, I didn’t feel like checking it. To be precise, it was annoying to have to send a reply after seeing that.
So I looked around and saw documents scattered all over the table.
“… … .”
I picked up my cell phone.
I entered my password and checked the message.
As expected, there was nothing special. Dozens of photos just greet me. There are photos taken together, photos taken alone, and even streetlight photos with no meaning. I glanced at the photo with an indifferent hand and took it down.
As if they had gone to an amusement park yesterday, the children in the photo were smiling while wearing funny headbands.
Where did Lee Mi-sun send this guy… .
[The photo was taken yesterday!!!!]
[Lee Seungyeon is so ugly]
[I closed my eyes!!]
[Why is Oh Hyun-wook sleeping over there?? He didn’t wake anyone???]
As soon as Seungyeon Lee posts a photo, messages appear quickly below.
There isn’t much to talk about. I heard that someone was funny yesterday or that I couldn’t do something. What do I want to do today and what do I want to eat?
Honestly, I don’t know why they included me here. Do you want to talk like this in front of the teacher? I don’t know. I really don’t know… .
After seeing so many messages that it was difficult to keep track of them, I turned off notifications and put down my phone. At the same time, Lee Mi-seon, who was sitting across from her, opened her mouth.
“Despicably.”
Lee Mi-seon pouted like a child.
I know what you’re trying to say. Like Seung-yeon Lee, who posts dozens of photos every morning, Lee Mi-sun has been muttering the same thing for several days every time she sees my face. I wonder if someone might say we are of the same blood.
“Really shameful… .”
Lee Mi-seon, who was a bit older, blatantly glanced at me. It means to ask.
I sighed.
“why?”
“I told you first that I was keeping an eye on you!”
This is a conversation that has been repeating itself for several days. Lee Mi-seon said, feeling aggrieved.
“You can’t believe you took that away!”
“Whoever makes the effort first is the winner.”
“Yes, but… !”
Honestly, wouldn’t this be better for Gamble himself? Rather than getting a job at an association that also serves as a multi-selection company.
It’s much more humane than ‘I joined a guild and found out that the company was a three-jobber’. It’s not like I was hit with a salary. Vacation is also provided in accordance with Korean labor law… .
… … .
Well, Hong Seok-young’s guild is a business with less than 5 people. Including the gamblers, there are now only three people.
“Then you can’t make me do this!”
“I am grateful for that.”
“… “Why are you suddenly greeting me so rudely?”
“I hope you continue to take good care of me in the future.”
“Oh really!”
I pretended not to hear Lee Mi-seon’s grumbling. It’s not that I ordered it in the first place. Who was the person who fell for Hong Seok-young’s words that he would ask for a favor again this time?
The association also said that the Ark was causing quite a bit of trouble. They attack raiding parties and kill innocent hunters, or kill them and then steal their bodies. It’s a good thing it hasn’t become known to the media yet.
As an association, they probably wanted to resolve the matter quickly, and since Hong Seok-young came forward at that time, they probably thought, what the heck? Enough to attach a line already.
Anyway, Lee Mi-seon roughly solved Sandra Gamble’s employment problem. Things like a work visa or a place for Gamble to stay.
I have the impression that they are providing too much help, even down to the smallest details, to simply call it the association’s work. Kim Chae-min said it was a personal revenge related to the realm of wizards, but does Lee Mi-seon also have such a personal reason? So much so that she spent her own time and money to help Hong Seok-young. To thank her for taking care of her nephew, it’s a bit… It’s not too much, after all.
“When will the school building be completed?”
“Will it come out just because it’s been a few days since the design was completed?”
“what… “I think this hunter can do it.”
“I’m not some kind of archmage who can perform miracles.”
The pension, where part of the building was damaged by the explosion, was not a place to stay for a long time. The damaged area was only a small kitchen, but the area where water and electricity were disabled was quite large. Repairs take a long time, and no matter how large the pension is, the number of people staying there is limited, so it started to feel crowded when excluding closed areas.
I didn’t send the kids away for nothing. There was also a reason why there was no suitable place to talk to Gamble… .
So Lee Mi-seon also continued speaking with a subtle look in her eyes.
“You probably don’t know because Gamble is staying at the hotel now, but… Wouldn’t you feel scammed if you found out that you joined a guild that doesn’t even have a guild office? “Maybe they’ll say they can’t do it?”
“I signed the employment contract presented to me by Hong Seok-young. Will you give it to me?”
I snorted.
“And didn’t you say that Hope told Michelle directly? “You can never quit first.”
I thought for a moment and then shrugged.
“So the kids will be fine too.”
okay.
Yes.
As long as Gamble is here, Hope can threaten to hand over the Ark information to us at any time. When Gamble explained that he could trouble Michelle, Hope agreed without asking any more questions.
We didn’t stop either. As long as Gamble is here safely, Hope cannot contact us as a fairy, monster, or member of the Ark. The safety of children was ensured. It wasn’t a bad deal.
Lee Mi-seon, who was quietly looking at my face, slumped her shoulders.
“That’s a good thing.”
“Yes.”
“I guess Lee Rok can go to school too?”
“… … .”

“Why are you looking like that? “My child wants to go to school and is studying hard.”
“what… “It’s a good thing that I can go, though.”
Whether he will be able to adapt well is another question. At first, he was dealing with Hong Seok-young, who was following him around, but now that he was ignoring him and focusing only on the tablet PC, it seemed like he would do well.
I sighed. That damn cat. As with any old animation series, there were a lot of episodes, and Ui-rok started glaring at me when I told him to stop watching it.
Part of me wanted to stop him from touching the tablet PC, but I didn’t know if he would bite me. Who do you resemble?
Lee Mi-seon looked at me to see if she had taken my sigh with a different meaning.
“… “Is it because of Hope’s story?”
“no.”
I reflexively denied it and then shrugged my shoulders.
“I can’t really say no.”
“Well, I heard that story, so of course it is!”
“Is it obvious?”
“yes!”
Lee Mi-seon frowned and said dissatisfied.
“why… Aren’t you crazy? “You’re really f*cking up!”
bang.
The table shook. The wooden table steadfastly withstood the wrath of an active hunter.
As I listened to Lee Mi-seon’s complaints, I remembered what happened two days ago.
* * *
-Noah, increase the medicine? I’m good at that! I’m confident I’ll do really well!!
This time, Gamble is by our side, and Hope’s pale face is in the screen.
“Shanshan! “You can never, ever talk about anything else!”
-okay okay.
“What should I say?”
-uh… . What was it?
“Alex Hope!!!”
-I’m kidding. All you have to do is say that you became Hong Seok-young’s subordinate.
Hope smiled brightly, without any worries. In inverse proportion to that, Gamble’s face grew darker.
-And warn you not to show off any further. I can do that to Noah! Anyway, Noah is human, so it’s a little… Should I say he is below me? That’s why Noah hates me even more!
Hope’s laughter hit my eardrums sharply. Due to the poor sound quality of the call, the sound of laughter became disjointed and unpleasant to hear. Hope laughed for a long time, whether she knew it or not.
“I want to ask you something.”
Hong Seok-young, who was waiting for Hope’s laughter to die down, opened his mouth softly.
Hope suddenly stopped laughing and straightened her posture. I’m on guard. No, are you scared? He looked similar either way. It’s like a mouse facing a cat, getting very nervous and looking for a corner to escape to.
Of course, Hope had nowhere to run.
“Dr. Gamble is here, are you going to keep targeting children?”
-hmm… .
“No, why did you kidnap the children in the first place? “What were you planning on doing with those kids in the lab on the Ark?!”
-uh… .
Hope narrowed her forehead. Hope, who was maintaining a defensive appearance with her arms crossed, thought for a while before calling out to her humanity.
-Sandra. Can I talk about this?
Needless to say, Gamble, who suddenly received the attention of everyone in the room, began to panic.
Gamble’s face turned red and he stuttered for an answer.
“Uh, uh, ah, that… Hey, wouldn’t it be okay if we talked about it?”
-It means it’s okay, it’s not okay.
“… It’s okay to talk.”
As soon as permission was given, Hope got straight to the point. There was no other rhetoric.
-It’s an offering.
Of course, it wasn’t a nice thing to hear. Because it was closer to a monster than a human, it was not possible to explain it smoothly considering the listener’s feelings. Although he was a bastard who probably wouldn’t have done it even if he could.
-No, it’s not a sacrifice… part? switch? Something like that?
“switch?”
-Noah ended up trying to sort it out after trying for over ten years and seeing no results. Because a lot of money was spent. Noah acted strong, but I was annoyed more than once because of his money.
Hope said with a proud look on her face, as if it were some great secret.
-But, I didn’t know that there was something in Korea that could be considered a success. If it weren’t for Sandra, I would have really killed him.
“Shan Shan!!!”
-No, you didn’t kill him… . Even if it is a half-successful work, if Noah notices, it will be a big problem. Wouldn’t it be better to just get it out of sight?
“I told you…” .”
-So you didn’t kill him!
“stop.”
Gamble and Hope, who had been bickering, closed their mouths.
“What do you mean by parts?”
-Ugh… . I’m not sure I can explain well, but what should I say… .
Hope groaned and finally spoke.
-I’ll tell you in advance, this is a failed study. If I want to do what Noah wants, I have to approach it differently, but he doesn’t listen to me. I have said several times that human and dungeon power cannot be used because the magic management method is different.
Hope muttered a few curse words about Noah Michel and then spoke with a reluctant expression.
-Noah is looking for a way to control the dungeon from outside the dungeon. They’re for connection or something. So the switch… ? No. Should I say that I was trying to make something like a simple remote controller?
“… … .”
Seokyoung Hong was listening to Hope without even blinking.
– Well, there are a few dungeons, but it’s hard to manage them all one by one. It would be nice to have access to a central control panel… . Oops. I said too much.
Hope scratched her cheek with an embarrassed expression.
-Anyway, if Sandra is there like you said, it will be difficult for Noah to tell me to handle the failure. No, you can’t. If they come after me, I will ask Sandra to tell them everything. Oh, I can tell Noah about this too, right?
“okay. Are you sure?”
-huh. Since Semi is dead anyway, you probably don’t know what exactly is a success, right? Noah didn’t change her eyes.
