[Chapter 104]

[Monster with worn out emotions (8)]

there is no way you don’t know

I knew it from long ago.

Even the dullest person would not be able to notice what kind of heart she had, who had been relying on him since she was a child.

Not to mention, he was by no means a dull person.

It was just that I was deliberately pretending not to know.

‘Don’t pretend you don’t know.’

Serena had said this before.

Then he realized that she had seen through him.

At the same time, not only her, but probably others noticed as well.

Jeong Ha-yang must have noticed.

Maybe a long time before Serena.

Even so, she would have been waiting until the time when she showed her crush and looked back at her.

Then I couldn’t stand it any longer.

“—I really like you.”

i like you. I really like you.

A heart that is pure enough to be thankful and sorry.

Her confession was not buried even in the sound of firecrackers.

The voice that vomits the feeling of liking someone is full of trembling, but it never dissipates without any repercussion.

“—What? I can’t hear you!!”

Even so, Eunha lied.

It was a sweet lie to him, but a cruel lie to her.

No, lies are just lies.

There are no sweet lies.

There is only a lie that is only self-gratification.

And people called it hypocrisy.

-I’m sorry.

Hayao’s eyes widened greatly.

He could well guess how she was feeling.

Just as she watched him for a long time, he also watched her for a long time.

Even so, he drove a nail into the heart she had been harboring for a long time.

So naive, so naive.

As if you didn’t hear anything.

“…No, nothing.”

By the time the firecrackers stopped.

Eventually, she hid her shaking eyes and shook her head helplessly.

It was as he expected.

He was sure that if he stuck to this attitude to the end, she wouldn’t speak again.

“”… … .””

There was only awkwardness.

People who had been looking up at the night sky moved their steps.

The crowd continued to flow, and the two men only looked at each other from an awkward distance.

“Come to think of it, Subin is still working instead of us…, but I think we need to change it now. I’m going to…, change it, but what about Eunha?”

Ehehe Jeong Ha-yang smiles and says.

She couldn’t even look at him directly, and she poured out long words in an instant.

As if trying to cover up the awkwardness.

“I have an appointment, so I’ll come later. Hayang, you go first.” “…Yes, then I’ll be there first.”

He quickly nodded and ran away without looking back.

Left alone, Eun-ha stood in place to see her off as she grew farther and farther away.

People were on their way.

Their time continues to pass, but I felt as if my own time had stopped in the past.

They were all laughing happily, but he didn’t know why they were laughing so happily.

The world is harsh, and the reality is cruel, so you never know when you will die.

The future is always unpredictable, and living in the present is so exhausting.

“—Master.”

“uh.”

Eunha left there.

Because I don’t want to be there anymore.

There was also a promise.

In the woods near the dormitory, quite far from the cultural festival area.

Eun-ha, who arrived at the rendezvous point, answered the call of <Leaving>, which eventually appeared somewhere in the forest.

“how….”

“I really can’t understand. Why do you kick a woman’s confession like that? Yes? You think I didn’t notice?”

“…”

Twenty-five who cuts off Eunha and speaks passionately.

It seems that he was watching what happened a while ago up close.

Even before his return as a Ranger, he excelled as a Ranger, and was good at concealment magic. Furthermore, since he had developed his physical abilities through experiments on his body, it would not have been too difficult to eavesdrop on him from a distance.

“From what I’ve seen, that child will grow up to be a very pretty child later on. The owner just kicked out the confession of a woman who will be receiving a lot of attention from men. Master, by any chance, don’t you like men?”

“do you want to die?”

“no.”

Twenty-five pretend to close the zipper at Eunha’s one word.

Combing his long hair, he sighed and continued.

“Jeong Ha-yang. She is a direct descendant of Alice Group, and even though she is not related by blood, she is loved and trusted by the executives including Min Jun-shik, the president of Alice Group. She entered the academy and is currently considered one of the best clans based on her vast amount of mana. A promising prospect showing interest in.”

“…I never said to investigate the people around me.” “Wouldn’t it be nice to figure out what kind of people are around you, and if there are people who could be a threat? Well, from now on, I’ll ask permission.”

“I must have tried to find my weakness.”

“Oh, yes. Master, the small man is not really that kind of person.”

“Shut up.” “yes.”

There are a lot of words that say “leave”.

It was annoying to hear what he was saying over and over today.

“But, sir.”

Even so, Eunha couldn’t completely stop him from speaking.

It was because blocking the mouth of <Twitter> was more difficult than blocking the dam.

As long as he doesn’t cut out his tongue, he’ll be talking all over the place.

“A child named Jeong Ha-yang would have been strategically valuable to the owner. I don’t know exactly what the owner intends to do yet, but I’m sure if the power of the Alice Group is added to the work the owner is doing, things will work out smoothly.”

“…”

“There are rumors about the master from time to time in the back alleys. The engagement proposal keeps coming in from the master. The master keeps rejecting it, but from my point of view, I think it would be difficult to refuse an engagement offer before graduating from the academy.”

<Cheer up> vomited with a serious face.

He was right.

Even if he rejected an engagement proposal from a group that was nothing more than a gossip, he didn’t have to worry too much about it.

However, as he gains fame, he will receive an engagement proposal that his father cannot refuse.

“So, shouldn’t we get engaged to a direct descendant of the Alice Group who is very friendly to the owner?”

“…”

“Besides, if he became the son-in-law of the Alice Group, master would have the ability as a player and the power that no one can look down on.”

Eunha also knew.

Jeong Ha-yang was attractive both as a player and as a strategic tool.

So it wasn’t that he didn’t think of winning her heart.

But in the end I couldn’t.

“Sir, by any chance, you don’t feel guilty despite the appearance, do you?”

“Do you want to keep climbing?”

“…Kuh…!

“Where in the world is there a person who says he will hit you and hits you?”

It wasn’t guilt.

It had been a long time since I had abandoned the guilt in my previous life.

However, when you look at her who has a pure heart for you, you feel how ugly a person you are.

He couldn’t rule out the idea that if she got close to him, she too would become someone like him.

That’s why-.

-I hope Hayang doesn’t become unhappy.

He didn’t want to make her miserable.

He didn’t know how to like someone, he had no way to reciprocate her feelings, nor was he confident that he would ever fall in love with her.

“If you’re with me, you’ll only be unhappy.”

“This is what I feel when I see my master… Master only says things like he has lived the whole world by himself. In the eyes of a small person, how much does a little boy who is only 15 years old know how to know what the future holds…”

“…”

“Master worries too much. People’s hearts are bound to change even if you don’t like them… Master recklessly pushes them away and says you’ll be unhappy if you’re with me… Master says he’s 15 years old, but that doesn’t mean he’ll end up with second grade disease. I don’t need it… Kkeukkuk…!”

“This is where you pretend to be sick.”

To be honest, Eunha didn’t know how to make the person she liked happy.

In his previous life, he lost his family and lived a life of killing only monsters without feeling love for his family.

He, whose emotions have been worn out by such a life, has a strong desire for his own things, but there is no way to truly make someone happy.

Your love will be nothing but an obsession.

In this life, the heart you have for your family will be no more than an obsession in the name of love.

I don’t know what love is, but at least it won’t be a pitiful obsession like yourself.

He didn’t know how to embrace others the way his family did to him.

he is-.

‘I like it, very much. To the extent that I would give my life for you.’

‘I must come back alive. It’s a must. I really like you.’

──You wouldn’t be able to pour your heart out that way, to the point of giving your all to someone like Lee Yu-jeong and Ha Baek-ryun.

He can only receive.

Even after going back in time, it still remained unchanged.

He, who could only receive the hearts of others, did not know how to return them to others.

“Anyway. How did my request go?”

Eun-ha looked down at him who was kneeling on the floor and asked.

There was only one reason to bring him to the academy through Lee Kang-hyeok.

<Grim Reaper> Lee Yu-jeong’s whereabouts.

Eun-ha thought that if he brought him to this place, he might be able to find the girl he hadn’t been looking for.

Moreover, as many people visit the academy during the Cultural Festival, I wonder if she didn’t come here too.

However, <Left> shook his head.

“I couldn’t find the person I wanted just with what the owner said. From the first day of the cultural festival, I went around the academy to research <The Seed> No Eun-ah’s mana’s nature… but the person with the most similar mana to the nature was <The Empress> It was only Shin Seo-young. Also, we investigated based on the amount of mana in the body, but it was difficult to investigate, perhaps because of the concealment magic. However, among the academy students, the only student who stood out was Jeong Ha-yang, a direct descendant of Alice Group.” “…okay.”

There is no Lee Yu-jeong in the academy.

Eunha confirmed that fact again and nodded her head lonely.

When he didn’t say anything like that, <gasp> Twenty-five grumbled and started talking again.

“There is a limit to finding it with the information the owner gave me. My gift can’t exert its power without a physical trace.”

physical traces.

Eunha looked up at the night sky, recalling it.

The night sky was so black that not a single star could be seen.

The night sky I looked up at from the narrow forest felt so wide.

There is no Lee Yu-jeong born on September 1st.

As Eun-ha drew her face, she recalled the information that <Stealing> had told her not long ago.

Lee Yu-jung was born on September 1, the same year as herself, in Seoul.

He thought this information alone would make it easier to find her.

However, only 5 Lee Yu-jeong who met the relevant conditions were found in the information brought by <Tteobeori>.

One of them was attacked by a monster last summer, two were killed by a Kraken, and the other two were male.

Nevertheless, Eun-ha checked all the photos of ‘Lee Yoo-jung’ just in case.

As a result, no one retained her image.

“The last time you asked for an additional request… We’re looking across the country, but to be honest, the chances are slim. It’s strange that we can’t find a person with the characteristics you’re talking about.”

Eunha was also intuition.

Even if the scope of the search was expanded to the whole country, it seemed that the Lee Yu-jeong he was looking for would not come out.

“Above all—”

Twenty-five spoke to Eunha, who was standing there blankly.

He put his hand on his hip and had a worried face.

“—Is the information of the person you are looking for really ‘written like that’?”

“…”

Eunha couldn’t answer.

Now he couldn’t boast that he knew Lee Yu-jeong better than anyone else in the world.

Is it her real name?

Is her hometown Seoul?

Is her date of birth correct?

and so on.

“If he was from the slums, he might not exist on the resident register. It is very common for people from slums not to have a family register.”

“No, it won’t be.”

Eunha quickly denied it.

Her existence is probably recorded in the resident register.

Would she have been able to enter the academy without it?

After Eunha denied it, twenty-five thought for a while before answering.

“Then, I don’t know if the date of birth is different. Why is it that the birth registration is delayed, and the birthday on the resident registration is different from the actual birthday?” “Who in the world is like that…”

“My master knows absolutely nothing about this. In the case of illegitimate children, did you not know that such things are common? How common these days are people who give birth to children in quiet places, show them to a man, and become concubines. …. In hindsight, I think I was born that way. Even now, I don’t have a resident registration.”

“…”

A somewhat credible hypothesis.

Eunha recalled that possibility.

But in his previous life he had never been told that she was someone’s illegitimate child.

It was such a leapfrog hypothesis.

It’s just one of many possibilities.

Eunha immediately shook her head.

It was just one of the reasons why I couldn’t find her.

He chose not to become too preoccupied with any one hypothesis so as not to narrow his thinking.

from what you have to do first

is to do

It is to search nationwide for Lee Yu-jeong, who was born in the same year as herself and whose birthday falls on September 1st.

There is a limit to what you can find with mana.

If Yujeong is properly controlling the mana in her body, it would be hard to find even as a gift.

If only I could know the mana in her body.

If so, even if she uses concealment magic or protection magic, her location will be able to be identified.

Eunha felt sorry for me.

It was then.

“By the way, master. What the hell is in that pocket?”

“Why is it a handkerchief?” “Since a while ago, mana from a mysterious spell has been swirling around the master. Hmm…, it looks easy on the surface, but upon closer inspection, it’s made up of a complicated structure.” “yes?”

Eun-ha showed the handkerchief that Lee Yu-chun had given her.

A towel shaped like an evening primrose.

It was Eunha’s new handkerchief, made by Lee Yucheon at the request of her sister.

A handkerchief that increases mana resistance. Also, the magic that activates a considerable level of protection magic the moment mana is injected was engraved.

I also wanted to follow… .

couldn’t do it in the end

Eunha smiled bitterly.

It was because, while examining the spell engraved on the handkerchief, he ended up raising both hands in an overly complex spell.

Moreover, it seemed that the formula contained a formula that only the creator himself could understand.

“Hmm…. It’s a very sophisticated skill. If there were traces of mana like this, it would be easy to find.”

“okay?” “Yes, the maker of this handkerchief is now at 5 o’clock from here. Judging from how well it’s positioned, it looks like it hasn’t crossed the Han River. But, what the heck… why are there layers of protective magic around it?”

Twenty-five got irritated trying to find out who made the handkerchief.

It seemed that someone else’s magic interfered in the middle.

Still, he faltered that he knew the exact location.

What do you do when you know Yoochun hyung’s house address?

Eunha sighed.

In the end, nothing worked.

“Go back now. If you investigate further here, nothing will come out.”

“Why? After walking around the academy, it was nice to be able to find out how popular the master is and his relationships with women.”

“Don’t mess around.”

“yes.”

Twenty-five pretending to close the zipper.

Eun-ha left him behind and left the forest without anyone.

Under a starless night sky.

He walked along the side of the road, completely away from the crowds.

After him, <Tteobeori>, who had decided to follow him, quietly moved his feet.

“Oh my gosh… Maybe my master, the iron wall is so high that only girls will have a hard time. It seemed like a prize that would make a lot of women cry…”

Grumpy <float>.

He sighed as he turned to the place he was supposed to return to.

I wish there was someone who could break down the master’s iron wall… .

<Leaving> looked at the night sky.

A pitch-black night with nothing.

But even in the midst of it, the stars were dimly shining.

It’s just that the light is so small that you look up at the night sky and say there are no stars.

There is no starless night in the world.

Wasn’t the person who proved that his own owner?

Well, there must be someone like that somewhere.

if there is such a person

As he swore to his master, he will swear allegiance to her.

<Shattering>, covering up nine lies in order to tell the one truth, laughed.
