◈ Episode 028. If you touch it, it won’t break (3)
The original home of the Bentrick family.
The conference room and office on the third floor of the mansion, where beak masks symbolizing the family are engraved here and there, are basically places with a heavy atmosphere.
That was because it was where Adelia Ventrick, the current head of the Ventrick family and the actual person in power, was located.
Basically, she treated everyone coldly.
Therefore, no one could talk to her comfortably, but on the contrary, Adelia Bentrick was able to perfectly maintain her authority despite her young age.
Anyway, that’s why the Bentrick family’s office has a cold atmosphere.
“… … .”
Currently, the place has been transformed from cold to overflowing with murderous intent.
Adelia Bentrick was sitting in the office.
Looking at Rockdil Ventrick, who was just kneeling in front of him with an emotionless expression.
“… … .”
silence. And silence again.
No one in the office was quick to say anything.
The same was true for Rockdil Ventrick, who was still saying nothing with his head down, and the same was true for Rockdil Ventrick’s father, Eden Ventrick, who was standing next to him.
How long was the silence like that?
In the heavy air, where it felt like her lungs were filling up with water just by breathing, Adele Ventrick finally opened her mouth.
“Rock deal.”
“yes.”
Rockdil Ventrick received those words with his whole body shrinking, as if he was about to die at any moment.
Adelia Bentrick, who was looking at the scene without showing any emotion, said.
“What do you want to do?”
“… … yes?”
“You couldn’t possibly have arrived in front of me without thinking at all, right? How dare you make things so crazy?”
Adelia Bentrick’s voice was pure.
A thin, beautiful voice that sounds like a jade bead rolling around.
However, Rockdil opened his mouth, feeling momentarily dizzy from the intangible pressure contained in that voice.
“S-sorry… … .”
Rockdil bows his head and asks for forgiveness.
However, Adelia Bentrick, who was looking at that scene, still spoke without making any expression.
“Is that the end?”
“… … .”
“I asked if it was the end. “Rockdil Bentrick.”
“that… … that is.”
At that moment, Rockdil had many thoughts in his head.
What should I do?
What can I do right now to get over this situation?
So many thoughts running through his mind.
However, no matter how much he searched, Rockdil Ventrick could not find anything to say to avoid this situation.
“Then I think the excuses end here, and from now on, I will punish Rockdil Bentrick.”
Adelia Bentrick let out an emotionless expression while looking at such a rock deal.
“Rokdil Ventrick- no, Rockdil, you are excommunicated from the Ventrick family.”
“ruler… … for a moment! “It’s excommunication, that’s too much!”
At the same time as Rockdil froze, Rockdil Ventrick’s father, Eden Ventrick, who was next to him, raised his voice as if he was surprised.
She opened her mouth with a disapproving expression.
“Then do you want to be excommunicated? “It wouldn’t be a bad idea to cover up my son’s mistake and be excommunicated.”
“That…” … !”
Eden Bentrick, who can’t easily forget words.
Adelia Ventrick spoke while looking at Eden Ventrick and Rockdil Ventrick, who were trembling with a contemplative look on their faces.
“No way, did you think I would just end it? huh? You didn’t really think like that, did you? If you really thought that way, I would want to tear you all to death right here and now. huh?”
Ethan Bentrick tried to say something, but was soon forced to stop.
That’s right too.
“huh? know? Do you know? It’s not like you can’t see what your son-in-law has done, right? Your bastard has now thrown the honor of the great Ventric family into filth… … !”
Adelia Bentrick is something Eden Bentrick has never seen before.
“What I am saying is that I want to tear your son, who is of no help to the family, to death right here and there. Do you understand? huh?”
It was because he was angry.
Adelia Ventrick, looking at Rockdil Ventrick, who was now trembling with his face turning blue, dispersed her magic power without controlling the anger that was bursting out.
Wow!
Along with that, an eerie atmosphere echoes around the area.
In response, Rockdil Ventric closed his eyes tightly and put his head down on the ground.
“Please just give me one chance. The head of the family… … !”
“Don’t say it’s an opportunity. You f*cking bastard. “I have no chance to give it to a bastard like you.”
Adelia frowns, swearing excessively as if she can’t stand it anymore.
However, Rockdil shouted with his head down on the ground.
“I will restore my family’s lost honor with my own hands… … ! So please… … !”
however-
“Eden Bentric.”
“yes… … .”

“If you don’t want to see your son, who is not even a collateral of the Ventric family, be torn limb from limb by me, you had better send him away right now.”
At Adelia’s words, Eden had no choice but to take his son with him.
Adelia Bentrick, who was left alone like that, frowned in annoyance and then quietly muttered the name of another person who had ruined the honor of the Bentrick family.
“Kim Joo-hyuk… … .”
Wow.
I ground my teeth.
####
Even after the midterm exams, Kim Joo-hyuk’s life didn’t change much.
His daily life was still the same.
I wake up in the morning and do physical training with Choi Arin.
After taking class.
I also do physical training after school.
Afterwards, I train my magic in my room and go to sleep.
However, despite such an ordinary daily life, Kim Joo-hyuk had quite a bit of fun.
I can’t stress this enough, but the more Kim Joo-hyuk worked, the stronger his body became, showing excellent results.
Kim Joo-hyuk fell in love with the benefits of his physical talent more than he thought, and training was now fun.
Training, which originally requires an indefinite wait, is finally satisfying when the results come out, but for Kim Joo-hyuk, the satisfaction was greater than expected as his body became stronger without having to wait for a single bit of the indefinite wait.
In addition to that, he also heard that Rockdil Bentrick was broken up from his family and that Adelia Bentrick, the head of the Bentrick family, would personally come and apologize, which made Kim Joo-hyuk feel very good.
Of course, there was no need for the head of the family to come in person and apologize or anything.
‘Rather than coming and apologizing in person, it would be better if they just gave me the authority to hit a few rock dealers.’
Three rooms?
No, two rooms… … . No, she would have been able to cleanly shake off all the corn by just giving her one shot, but she was feeling a sense of regret.
Well, anyway, it feels like Kim Joo-hyuk’s life hasn’t been that bad lately.
Except for one thing.
“excuse me.”
“no.”
“You didn’t say anything?”
“You keep saying that shit.”
“no it’s not!?”
Seeing Yoo So-yeon screaming with a frown on her face, Kim Joo-hyuk looked at her with a sad expression and spoke.
“Then what is it?”
“that is… … .”
“that is?”
“that is… … .”
“ah… … “There are no real psychopaths.”
“I’m not a psychopath!”
“Then say what you have to say, you idiot!!!”
When he frowned and shouted, Yoo So-yeon looked at him with a tearful expression, but Kim Joo-hyuk had nothing to worry about.
Rather, Kim Joo-hyuk thought that his personality had become very bodhisattva-like.
‘Honestly, if you endure this five times, you’ll be a Bodhisattva.’
The reason Kim Joo-hyuk was upset.
Without needing to explain at length, the reason was the same as before.
‘The crazy bitch keeps talking to me but doesn’t do anything’
Kim Joo-hyuk recalled the time when Yoo So-yeon first entered the fitness room.
As she was training with Choi A-rin, she kept staring at the treadmill behind her. When Kim Joo-hyuk gave her a look, Yoo So-yeon pretended not to notice her like a ghost.
Then, after Choi A-rin left, she hesitantly came to Kim Joo-hyuk and repeated the ridiculous conversation routine from last time.
‘excuse me… … .’
‘why?’
‘no.’
That’s five times.
For reference, when the damn routine reached the fifth time, Kim Joo-hyuk thought about five times about whether to throw the dumbbell he was holding at Yoo So-yeon.
“Don’t get upset and if you have something to say, say it quickly. “I’m going now too.”
When Kim Joo-hyuk checked the time on his smartphone and spoke, Yoo So-yeon made a short “uh” sound, blushed on her cheeks, muttered, and then spoke.
“I… … that. Hey.”
“I have something.”
“that… … Choi Arin… … “You’re teaching me, right?”
“however?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s answer, Yoo So-yeon, who was fiddling with her clothes and twisting her long black hair with her fingers, slowly rolled her eyes and spoke.
“Uh, over there… … . hmm… … “Can I also tell you something?”
“what?”
“that… … You know, training… … .”
“Oh, training?”
“huh… … .”
Looking at Yoo So-yeon, who lowered her head as if she had said something very embarrassing, Kim Joo-hyuk nodded and said.
“Nope?”
“?”
“what? why? Why are you looking at me like that? “What can I gain from looking at you in the first place?”
“Now, wait! “I’m not asking you to tell me without getting anything in return!”
“Then what is it?”
“I will protect you in our family!”
“What kind of bullshit is that?”
When Kim Joo-hyuk asked as if it was genuinely strange, Yoo So-yeon said again as if it was strange.
“Do you have any thoughts?”
“What are you thinking?”
“Well, you touched the Ventric family and the first class, right?”
“ah.”
Kim Joo-hyuk knew what Yoo So-yeon was trying to say.
Because Liliya said the same thing as Yoo So-yeon.
‘Did you say that the Ventrick family and the first class wouldn’t stay still?’
From what I heard, Liliya’s face came to mind as she expressed concern, saying that she would definitely retaliate in some way for bringing international disgrace to her family, and that even a first-class species could retaliate if they did well.
Well, in the first place, I met the reporter and criticized the Ventrick family because I had heard that Liliya might turn the family into enemies for the first time, so I didn’t have any hesitation about it.
‘Well, my strength hasn’t fully recovered yet.’
If he messed up a bit and his strength hadn’t fully recovered yet, and his family rushed to kill him, he could just stay at this school a little longer.
‘Valhalla Shield is sweet.’
Kim Joo-hyuk, whose thoughts went that far, smiled and spoke.
“I don’t need it?”
Yoo So-yeon’s face instantly turned red at his words and she frowned.
“Ah, no, the person went to such great lengths to bow his head and ask… … .”
“When did you bow your head? “Isn’t it possible to say that I bowed when I didn’t?”
“what… … ?”
“By the way, when you ask someone for a favor, shouldn’t you do it while bowing your head politely?”
Seeing Kim Joo-hyuk talking while smiling, Yoo So-yeon gritted her teeth and then said.
“Can you join me in training too? … ?”
I bent my back to 90 degrees and bowed my head in front of Kim Joo-hyuk.
A very polite attitude no matter who sees it.
Seeing Yoo So-yeon like that, Kim Joo-hyuk grinned.
“no.”
That’s what I said.
“Hey you piece of trash!”
Soyeon Yoo eventually had no choice but to swear.
