Chapter 45
Episode 45
The air-conditioned cafe cools down.
Kim Eun-ah sucked in the iced Americano served through a straw in the pleasant breeze.
“Ah~ It really tastes like this.”
Kim Eun-ah drinks Americano and puts on a happy expression. Shin Yoo-seong looked at Kim Eun-ah in a strange way.
“okay? I was too bitter.”
“It sucks. If you become an adult like me, you will be able to enjoy this bitter taste.”
Kim Eun-ah was elated and drank Americano. On the other hand, Shin Yoo-seong was drinking a sweet caramel macchiato sprinkled with whipped cream.
‘It’s so sweet.’
Shin Yoo-seong really liked the drink Kim Eun-ah ordered.
“I like this.”
Kim Eun-ah smiled and looked at Shin Yoo-seong with her chin on her chin.
“Hmm, but how do you come to a cafe for the first time at that age?”
“Well, I guess it’s because I’ve been living in Musinsan since I was 5 years old.”
“5 5 years old? From then until now?”
Surprised, Kim Eun-ah missed the straw she was biting on. To say I spent 12 years in the mountains from the age of 5 to 17. It was something that Kim Eun-ah could not even imagine.
“Huh… that’s ridiculous.”
Even though he is a disciple of the king of authority.
Maybe she came out of Mt. Musin from time to time, but Kim Eun-ah was quite shocked by the story of Shin Yoo-seong.
“Then, if you were in the mountains like that all along, what about your family? Are you really not watching?”
Let’s ask Kim Eun-ah, who can’t believe it. Shin Yoosung calmly replied.
“I’ve been on Mt. Musin all along. The only family I have is Master.”
short silence.
Kim Eun-ah only knew that Shin Yoo-seong was taken by King Kwon. It was the first thing I learned about being from an orphanage.
“uh? Oh that’s right? Because I think about it. Do you think the mountains are okay? First of all, the air… isn’t it good?”
Embarrassed, Kim Eun-ah tried to respond calmly, but she was clearly nervous.
Zuuuu.
Instead of Americano, Kim Eun-ah’s straw made only the noise of the air. An awkward air current flowing through the cafe.
“I’m okay.”
In response to Shin Yoo-seong’s nonchalant answer, Kim Eun-ah gently removed her lips and spoke carefully.
“…Hey, that’s fine.”
Kim Eun-ah’s fingers fidgeting awkwardly on the table. Kim Eun-ah looked outside through the glass and spoke in the dryest possible way.
“You can’t force yourself to pretend you’re okay.”
Kim Jun-hyeok fell into a coma two years ago.
Kim Eun-ah’s voice sank at the sudden memory.
“That… I’m sorry. It just reminded me of it.”
Kim Eun-ah timidly apologized while messing with her hair. Shin Yoo-seong was the first at the academy to receive a sincere apology from Kim Eun-ah.
‘It’s surprisingly delicate.’
Even Shin Yoo-seong was new to seeing Kim Eun-ah for the first time, but he couldn’t blame Kim Eun-ah.
“no. It’s really good. Um… he’s still alive.”
Let’s talk Shin Yoosung with a smile. Kim Eun-ah narrowed her eyebrows.
“hmm? You said there wasn’t any earlier?”
At Kim Eun-ah’s words, Shin Yoo-seong shook his head slowly.
“Everyone is fine. It’s just that we’re not family anymore.”
“Then…”
Kim Eun-ah seemed to have finally noticed Shin Yoo-seong’s situation.
“I was abandoned by my family.”
In response to Shin Yoo-seong’s plain story, Kim Eun-ah did not say anything. Shin Yoo-seong said he entered Musin Mountain at the age of 5. Kim Eun-ah couldn’t understand.
“That is so… strange. Why do you throw away a 5-year-old for doing something so wrong?”
It is fortunate that there are no guests except for the two of them. Kim Eun-ah seemed cautious about bringing up the story, but Shin Yoo-seong had no intention of hiding her past.
‘To make friends. It would be advantageous to talk a lot.’
And it was meaningful to tell someone what I had buried inside, even if it didn’t help directly.
“The family didn’t want an heir with F-class characteristics.”
“…So you threw it away?”
Kim Eun-ah let out a small sigh and looked at Shin Yoo-seong. In order to be recognized as a prestigious family in Korea, a strong hunter country, the power of successors was definitely important.
‘But it’s like that…’
But to throw it away for that reason made Kim Eun-ah bitter.
“But family? Are you… are you from a famous family?”
With the surname ‘Sin’, Kim Eun-ah is famous enough to remember the famous hunter. There was only one such family in Korea.
“Could it be… the Shin-O family?”
Shin Yoo-seong nodded at Kim Eun-ah’s question. Kim Eun-a, biting a straw, was lost in thought.
‘I couldn’t believe it… He really came from the Shin-O family.’
The Shin-Oh family is a renowned hunter family recognized by Kim Joo-hyeok, the chairman of Shinsung Group and Kim Eun-ah’s grandfather. Whenever a huge guild raided the tower or dungeon, there was always someone from the Shin-O family.
‘If you’re a disciple of King Kwon and have blood from the Shin-O family… that’s really cool.’
Eunah Kim, lost in thought, hurriedly opened her mouth as if something came to mind.
“Hey, but if it’s a Shin-O family… You’re in the second year!?”
Shin Ha-yoon.
1st place in the 2nd year rankings.
next student council president.
And the only student in Gaon who has hunted a level 5 boss.
Kim Eun-ah’s thoughts seemed to have reached Shin Ha-yoon. Even Kim Eun-ah could not forget the fame of Shin Ha-yoon.
“yes. I can’t even remember his face now.”
Shin Yoo-seong nodded casually, but Kim Eun-ah looked extremely upset.
“So you abandoned him and raised Shin Ha-yoon? …because the trait is S-class?”
Crumpled-
A paper cup that ruthlessly crumples when Kim Eun-ah unknowingly puts strength in her hand. Kim Eun-ah looked at Shin Yoo-seong with her chin resting at an angle.
“You are such a good person. How did you stand it? If it were me, it would be just…”
“It’s okay. Because of that, I was able to meet Master.”
Shin Yoosung’s words were sincere.
Shin Yoo-seong was more like a family to his teacher, King Kwon, than a member of the Shin-Oh family, which was plagued by meritocracy.
give it
‘Let’s go now.’
The sound of air heard in the awkward airflow Let’s put down the cup Shin Yoo-seong finished drinking. Eunah Kim sang Yuseong Shin.
“hey.”
Took.
Kim Eun-ah held out a black card between her fingers.
“…I’m going to have another drink.”
Kim Eun-ah with a disapproving expression.
“why? He said he couldn’t even visit a cafe because he was only in the mountains.”
“It is, however.”
Shin Yoo-seong smiled shyly as he saw Kim Eun-ah urging him. Embarrassed or angry, Kim Eun-ah keeps waving her card.
“ruler! There are cakes in the cafe and there are many things to eat. do anything.”
Shin Yoo-seong accepted the card at Kim Eun-ah’s urging.
‘…I wonder if this will take care of it.’
From Shin Yoo-seong’s point of view, Kim Eun-ah’s expression was too immature. But I didn’t like it. In the end, Shin Yoo-seong accepted Kim Eun-ah’s card and smiled.
“okay. good.”
Kim Eun-ah, the only daughter of a chaebol family, and Shin Yoo-seong from an orphanage. It was a moment when the two people who seemed to have no contact became a little closer.
* * *
7th floor of Metro City Hospital.
It is known as a closed place that is not accessible to the general public, but that was not the case.
“What kind of villain is coming to the hospital? I’ve been guarding this place for two years, so I want…”
City Guard.
Appearing to be in his 20s, he was an elite bodyguard from the city guard. However, his duty was only to take turns guarding the ward on the 7th floor.
“Don’t complain. It’s not dangerous, but do you know how common it is to take care of money like this?”
Let the bodyguard next to you comfort you. The man who brought up the story let out a sigh.
“Hah, honestly, it’s true that it’s honey because there’s nothing dangerous about it. Still, you are very bored.”
“Well…”
“And what kind of crazy villain would target a big city like Metro City? How tight is the security in this hospital alone?”
The bodyguard checked the time with his pocket. 3 hours left. Not a single ant was visible.
“Have you seen the nurses’ faces? If you come to the 7th floor, you will run out of energy and leave.”
“haha! The admission process only takes 5 minutes. Not worth it.”
As the two men were talking, a helmet popped out between them from behind.
suddenly!
“Ahahaha~ That’s right! that’s right! It was too bad, too bad! Like you said, you’re exhausted?”
A lively voice mixed with noise from the helmet. The bodyguard belatedly reached for his waist, but there was no weapon.
“At some point!”
The panicked bodyguard shouted, but no threat. Rather, the helmet-wearing villain showed off the items he had in both hands.
“Oh, is this what the oppas are looking for right now? Ahaha!”
What the helmet girl was holding were the bodyguards’ guns.
“You bastard!”
A blue emoticon that appears on the black screen of the helmet as if laughing at the bodyguard.
“Are you going against me now without a weapon? Oppa, are you really brave?”
[ ^o^ hahaha]
The helmet girl laughed while covering her mouth and pointed her gun at the bodyguards.
“Oh, but just thinking about it. To be honest, I’m a little sad. Isn’t it too much to try to take out such a scary thing just because I was kidding?”
When the chatty helmet girl aimed a gun, the bodyguards stopped moving. Even though they are from City Guard, they are not hunters, but ordinary people. If I was hit by a bullet, I could never be fine.
“How the heck is the security system…”
The bodyguard in his 20s couldn’t admit what was happening. How did the villain in front of him unknowingly break through the guards and approach?
The helmet girl smiled obliquely at the bodyguard.
“curious? Ah~ To be honest, the cool thing is to say it’s a secret and leave in style. Hehe I don’t like that style. Um, if I had to ask, the culprit next to the boss was an informant?”
The helmet girl, chatting wildly, entered something into the hologram window floating in the air.
“I mean? Think more than you look. This is the main specialty. How are you curious?”
There was no bluff in the helmet girl’s words. All the security systems on the 7th floor were disarmed with her simple gestures.
Wheein! Clap! Clap! Clap!
When all the closed doors were opened and all the lights in the hallway were turned off, the 20-year-old security guard muttered as if he recognized the helmet girl’s identity.
“It’s Chi Chit…”
“No way… Rebellion’s hacker!”
The notorious villain group Rebellion.
Cheet belonged to Rebellion and was a wanted hacker for leaking confidential information in China.
“Hey, am I that famous already? Then why not? Ahaha! I’m just getting started!”
“Shut up!”
A cheat that laughs with excitement. One of the bodyguards threw himself at Cheat and charged him.
Dig! Sssss!
However, Cheet’s body turned into light and disappeared. Instead, he appeared next to another bodyguard and giggled.
Pod!
“Ahang? Am I here?”
blink.
It was a kind of teleport as her characteristic skill. The bodyguards belatedly took out weapons from their pockets and swung them, but whenever they did, cheat’s body blinked countless times.
Dig!
“Oh slow.”
Pod!
“It was a bit dangerous.”
For Chet, the current situation is just entertainment, not a battle. As the distance between the two men increased, Cheet used Blink to surprise them from behind.
Fuck!
“Gagging!”
“Ouch!”
Cheet’s hand-snatch knocked the two bodyguards down helplessly. Now, all that is left is Kim Jun-hyeok lying defenseless in the hospital room.
Bubbly.
Cheet walked slowly into the hospital room with the door open. Modern technology was too vulnerable to her hacking. It would have been better if it was a simple iron door without any electronic devices.
Cheet looked around the large hospital room and started muttering to herself.
“After all, the world is so unfair. You mean when I’m in Guangzhou? Oh, Cloe, are you listening?”
Cheet is still talkative, but perhaps because he’s lost in thought, his conversation is slower than usual.
“there is no answer? You’re listening right? I say?”
Let the cheat keep looking for someone. Soon, a voice came out of the suit’s pocket.
-Did you secure the circular seat?
Instead of answering the question, Cheet looked down at Kim Jun-hyeok and giggled.
“That’s later. Just listen.”
Cheat reached for the device next to Kim Jun-hyeok. The huge machine was studded with tiny gems called cycle stones.
“When I was younger, I mean. I was most worried about finding a place to sleep and food for the day? But for the money you pay for a night in this hospital room, you can eat dim sum in Tianhe for a year.”
Cheet took out the cycle stone from the machine and tinkered with it.
“Isn’t that unfair too? huh? Do you also think so? yes?”
Let Chet continue to chatter. The mysterious man dismissed in a subdued voice.
– I’ll ask again. Did you secure the circulation seat?
Cheet laughed invisibly from inside the helmet and grabbed the cycle stone. The goals of the villains gathered in Rebellion are different.
However, there was always one reason why she came to Rebellion.
– I’ll ask again. The circular stone is…
“Ahhh! Don’t look at me! I got it!”
Cheet shook her head and showed her annoyance, then approached Kim Jun-hyeok’s nose.
Paget.
[Sorry~♥]
[ㅠㅅㅠㅋ]
Then, she looked down at Kim Junhyeok and displayed a message on the display board of her helmet. It was her own apology for what was about to happen.
