Relife Player 492

[Chapter 136]

[The Prologue of Love]

‘—I guess the path you and I are going to take is completely different.’

The path you want to take.

The path Baek Seo-jin wants to take.

Really, what is the difference?

No matter how many days I spent thinking about it, I couldn’t figure it out.

how… .

What was I doing wrong?

On this day, after finishing training, Eunha stayed in her room and was lost in thought.

He sat with his back against the wall and just stared blankly at the swords standing on one side of the room.

‘What is your sword for?’

That day, the words Baek Seo-jin said when he changed his tone floated around in my head.

In her previous life, Eunha said that her sword was a sword for killing, but in this life, she said that it was a sword to protect the fairy.

And I was sure.

Baek Seo-jin probably feels the same way.

But his answer was different.

… You are a person who actively supports the fairy government.

The reason why Lim Ga-eul is recognized as a fairy is because she receives support from teacher Baek Seo-jin, including living myths.

There were three main reasons why the fairy reigned over the players.

One, she has the <White Silver> gift.

One, people are supporting a fairy who can protect them as the head of the country.

First, the living myths and players who support her, which can be considered a distant wall to players, are becoming her power base.

That is why the fairy Im Ga-eul was able to become the head of the country.

So, it was hard to believe that Baek Seo-jin, who strongly supports her, did not affirm her answer.

“At that time… what should I have answered?”

In the end, Eunha came to the thought that perhaps her answer had misunderstood him.

For example, the answer Baek Seo-jin wanted from himself may not have been a ‘fairy woman’ but a sword that protects the ‘fairy government’.

Baek Seo-jin may have gotten the impression from the answer he gave that he was a person who risked his life to protect only the fairy.

Well, that’s not entirely wrong.

No matter how the world goes, it doesn’t matter as long as Baekryeon is happy.

In order for Baekryun to be happy, the fairy government must remain alive… .

Eunha leaned her head against the wall.

It was a thought I had been thinking about every day since that day.

It could also be said to be the lingering regret of someone who was implicitly expecting to receive an offer from Baek Seo-jin for <The Seed>.

“You can’t help what happened in the past….”

But unfortunately.

Lingering and regret are emotions that dull the sword.

Eunha decided to let out her emotions and forget about not being able to become Baek Seo-jin’s <The Seed>.

Even if he didn’t become <The Seed> anyway, the future he envisioned didn’t change.

“I need to sleep now.”

The second semester is over.

Winter vacation starts tomorrow.

Eunha, who was planning to go home early tomorrow morning, decided to sleep.

That was when he climbed onto the bed.

“huh?”

When I was checking my smartphone before going to bed, there was a FineTalk message from Jo Ara.

“Does he seem to like it now?”

He read the message she sent and burst out laughing.

「Joara」: Looking for Noh Eunha to go to the convenience store with me! (01:48 AM)

☆

I don’t know when it started.

Now that I have entered the high school academy, it feels like quite a long time ago.

A time past midnight.

Eunha, wearing a cardigan over her pajamas, left the dormitory and looked back on the year that was coming to an end.

“I happened to join this convenience store tour….”

The weather is cold.

Eunha blew out white breath.

The trigger seemed to have been when I was in contact with Ara one day and she mentioned that cup ramen eaten in the middle of the night was delicious.

One day, midnight.

Eun-ha, who was very hungry, went to the convenience store at the academy and half-jokingly called out Jo A-ra.

At that time, she was impressed by cup ramen, and since then, she has developed a hobby of visiting convenience stores late at night.

Like today.

“—Why are you coming so late? How long does it take from the dormitory to the convenience store?”

“Did this come on time too? It’s cold and you’re waiting inside. Why are you waiting here?”

“I was waiting to see when you would come. I heard you always come late.” “Who else does that?”

“Go out.”

“Ha…, I don’t know if he is my friend or my enemy.”

A convenience store located not far from the academy dormitory.

Eunha approached Jo Ara, who was waiting on a wooden chair in front of the convenience store.

She put both hands in the pockets of her hoodie and immediately slapped him.

But even though she was banged up with a hair roll in her bangs, Eunha wasn’t scared at all.

“It’s cold, so let’s go inside.”

“Of course, you know that the person who comes late also gets to pay for the kimbap, right?” “You… did you come here first and then call me to do this?”

“The kimbap I ate before was delicious, so I ate it again a few days ago, but it doesn’t taste that good, right?”

“so.” “So then I realized, ah, the kimbap I eat without paying for it is the most delicious thing.”

“Wow… so you’re going to rip me off?”

“You’re saying you’re trying to get paid for being late. And you have more money than me, live in a better house, and do that with just one piece of kimbap?”

“…Okay, choose whatever you want to eat.”

“Thank you! Then I’ll enjoy it. Oh, and I’ll buy it next time.”

The 12th year of the Chinese calendar is coming to an end.

To that extent, Eunha and Ara became close enough to lightly sneer at each other.

The two people soon entered the convenience store and began choosing food to eat.

Then, Jo Ara hesitated for a long time at the cup ramen corner.

“hmm….”

“Have you made your choice yet?”

“Yukgaejang or king lid. I’m wondering which is better.”

“You worry about all kinds of things.”

“Well, if you eat one, you can’t eat the other. So what did you choose?”

“Me? Big lid.” “Yeah, really? Then I guess I’ll just have to eat beef stew.” “Do you know how to eat too?” “Who could this be for? Oh, how about a can of beer each?”

“Not bad. You choose the beer. I’ll choose the beef jerky.” “Oh, I like beef jerky. Peanuts too!”

Surprisingly, the porridge went well.

After briefly exchanging opinions, the two gathered at the counter after gathering the items they needed to buy.

Eunha handed her card to the clerk.

“I’m buying it, so enjoy it.”

“Hmph, you already know that’s not your card, right? It’s a Sirius Group sponsorship card.” “It’s true that I live.” “Yes, yes. I will enjoy it.”

“It’s cold, let’s eat inside instead of outside.” “Okay. I’ll go get ramen water.”

Around the time Eunha finished paying and went to the lounge inside the store.

At that moment, Ara had finished all the preparations and was laying out the food on the table.

The two people who sat down were the first to toast with beer cans.

“Wow, it’s snowing!”

“It’s going to be a big deal when I go back.”

“Hey, you can take that much hit and go.”

Two people eating a late-night snack while looking out the window.

They soon admired the scenery while watching the snow fall under the streetlights.

It wasn’t the first snow.

It had snowed a few days ago and there was still snow on the ground.

Eunha clicked her tongue as she watched the snow fall on the road that had been cleared of snow.

“…I’d better go home as soon as tomorrow morning.” “Yes why?”

“If you do something wrong, you might get called out to snow removal.” “Ah… I have to go quickly too.”

A bowl of ramen and a glance at the snow.

Next, she put kimbap in her mouth and frowned in agreement.

From then on, the two talked about whatever came to mind.

“Ah, I got a text from Taeyang.”

“what?”

“I heard you strangely can’t sleep? You asked me what I’m doing right now.”

“What is he doing?”

“I’m going to watch TV. I guess I’ll say… I’m just listening to music.”

“That’s bullshit.”

“Imagine that Taeyang thinks I’m eating cup ramen at this hour. What if he sees me as a pig? I have to look good.”

“What? Aren’t you a pig?”

“You!”

Jo A-ra, who was chatting with On Tae-yang, pretended to hit him.

Eunha, who knew it wouldn’t be right, shrugged her shoulders.

Then, while she was concentrating on typing, I asked her secretly.

“How is Ontaeyang these days?”

“It’s still the same, well. Oh, no. The cultural festival, that… Ga-in has increased the intensity of his training a lot since that happened. He must have been shocked. The shock… was deserved. Taeyang and Ga-in Because we got along well.”

“…okay?”

Ontaeyang is training to the point of overworking himself.

Eunha felt satisfied after hearing the information from her.

On the other hand, I was curious about how Ohn Tae-yang’s feelings would have changed after Choi Ga-in disappeared.

… Looks like the kid has become toxic.

Did Choi Ga-in’s death become an opportunity to become toxic?

I heard from her that he seems to have become quite sensitive these days.

This meant that Ontaeyang was devoting himself to training as if he was being chased by something.

Although she seemed quite worried, Eunha actually welcomed his situation.

Even without adding Ontaeyang to the party, just having <Braver> grow was a good thing for the future.

“So what are you like?”

“what?”

It was then.

Ara, who stole the ramen that Eunha was eating, passed the baton as if it was her turn this time.

“White. You guys had a fight, right?”

“…….”

Miss Jeong.

A name that catches your eye.

Eunha, who was momentarily shocked, drank the cup ramen soup in silence.

Then she crossed her arms as if she knew that would happen.

“I don’t know why we fought, but try your best. Hayang is probably waiting for you to reconcile, right?”

“…It wasn’t a fight.”

“If it’s not a fight, what is it?”

“…….”

It wasn’t a fight.

Because there was nothing worth fighting about.

It’s just that Eunha was intentionally staying away from Jeong Hayang.

But he didn’t bother to say it.

I didn’t want to say it, and even if I did, there was no way she would understand.

Because I can’t afford that.

It’s not difficult to change the future.

From some point on, he was convinced without any basis.

However, when Choi Jeong-hoon kills Choi Ga-in, the future comes to mind that he will still become the chairman of Galaxy Group.

Starting with him, I think about the people and monsters I will face in the future.

Eunha had to realize the ‘reality’ that she was infinitely arrogant.

The ideal was still far away.

Everything I’ve been doing has been going so well these days, so maybe I was being too optimistic.

This is not the end, the disaster has not yet come.

Create a happy future.

He decided to dedicate his life to achieve that ideal.

It was a road where I didn’t know if I would be able to survive.

So to yourself─.

─That kind of thing is a luxury.

Where can I afford that?

Dating, love is a luxury.

He was thinking pessimistically.

You will only cause worry to your opponents as you navigate dangerous battle lines.

As you work hard to change the future, you will definitely not have time to be considerate of others.

In other words─.

─It’s obvious that it will only hurt you for no reason.

Eunha gulped down her beer as if to mock herself.

The alcohol is delicious.

That’s why I feel like drinking.

He got up from his seat and came back after recalculating the drinks Ara was going to drink.

“If I was going to drink like this, I should have gone for chicken and beer instead….” “Chicken and beer? It’s okay. Shall we go for a second round?”

“Huh? Just the two of us?”

“Then who’s going besides you and me? Who’s paying the bills over there?”

“No, that’s not it.

… . Drinking alone at this time is a bit… .”

“Then what are you drinking now?”

“…Alcohol.”

“Then what’s the problem?”

“eww….”

“If it’s a burden for you, just don’t do it.” “…….”

Eunha speaks calmly.

Jo A-ra appeared conflicted as she continued to click on the lid of the new beer can she received.

But Eunha knew.

It’s been a year since I got to know him, but you still don’t know?

Jo A-ra always bounces once.

Then, after suggesting it a few times, he reluctantly pretends to be involved and moves on.

just as expected.

“Just…just one drink.”

“You did that the first time you went to the convenience store with me, right?” “You!”

Jo Ara reacted.

Eunha chuckled.

In my heart, I promised myself that I would make her drunk for no reason, even if it meant forcing her to drink.

It was then.

“—Huh?”

As he was slowly settling down, he quickly checked the FineTalk messages.

There is a huge pile of messages in group chat rooms where friends gather.

As always, this is trivial chatter.

As he was mindlessly scrolling, his finger stopped on a certain message.

“Huh? What’s wrong?” “…You’re saying we’re having a year-end party?” “Really? That sounds fun.”

“Do you want to go too?”

“Me? Can I go too?”

“Are you still saying that?”

“I can’t help but notice. Oh, wait. I also have a message from Eunwoo?”

Let’s all get together and eat and drink.

Jinparang’s words grew in scale and led to a year-end party being held for Noh Eun-ha’s division and the students who favored it.

☆

In Japan, the fall semester usually begins in October and ends in January of the following year.

As a result, Han Seo-hyun’s return to Korea was scheduled for mid-January of the following year.

“Do you need to pack up already? We still have a long way to go.”

“There are only two weeks left, so I think I need to start packing up.”

“Still… I’m so sorry. It feels like time passes so quickly.”

A hotel located in Ginza, Tokyo.

Han Seohyun, who was on holiday for about a week during the year-end and New Year holidays, started packing up her bags right away from the first day of the holiday.

In response, Kaguya, who came to see her, showed a shocked expression.

“I feel like I want to hold on to someone… but how can I hold on to someone who has already left my heart?”

Kaguya sighed regretfully.

Only then did Han Seohyun look back at her and say thank you for being considerate while living in Japan.

“If you’re grateful, come back later. Don’t let Eunha Noh see your pretty face alone.”

Kaguya said jokingly.

Seohyun laughed quietly after hearing his name for the first time in a long time.

Kaguya was dumbfounded.

Because I knew that the reason she was so eager to return to Korea was because of one man.

“You’re very excited to meet student Noh Eun-ha, aren’t you?” “No.”

“What if it’s not… It’s already shown on your face, why?”

Kaguya teases.

Han Seohyun, who would have been tired and irritated before, only responded with a smile.

Then Kaguya grumbled, saying it wasn’t fun.

“…It’s snowing.”

“Huh? Really.”

Then.

Seohyun Han inadvertently turned her head.

It’s snowing outside the window.

Instead of putting her luggage away, she went to the window and looked at the snow falling from the pitch-black night sky.

Then he lowered his gaze and looked out into the city at night.

“…….”

A pitch-black night.

Pure white snow.

A sparkling city.

beautiful.

Han Seohyun tried to capture the night view of Japan, which she would probably never see again.

Then suddenly a thought occurred to me.

“…It would be prettier when I saw it with you.”

It’s a beautiful night view.

A night view that is beautiful even when viewed alone will most likely look even more beautiful when viewed with others.

And especially if that other person is someone you like.

“—I want to go back quickly.”

I want to go back quickly.

I want to go back quickly and see you soon.

Han Seohyun breathed out the winter air and spoke her heart out.

I’ve been in Japan for two weeks now.

She felt like two weeks had been too long.

I hope that time comes soon.

When that time comes─.

“─…….”

Happy memories pass by.

Seohyun Han gently traced her lips and savored each memory.

So, the end of the year approaches.
