“You sent all the boys away because you had something to say?”
Dabin Hwang spoke to Hyejin Ban in a harsh voice.
Ban Hye-jin answered Hwang Da-bin’s question with a smile.
“I heard some really good information a little while ago. I sent the boys out because I thought they would be rude. “I think it would be better for women to prepare something like this together.”
Yoo Ah-ram’s ears pricked up when he heard that it was good information.
“What information did you see?”
“It’s Siwoo’s birthday tomorrow.”
“really?”
“uh. “I heard it earlier while cutting fruit with her mother.”
“Why are you telling us this? … ?”
“Of course it’s because of the birthday party. “You said you don’t even know it’s your birthday?”
At those words, the three women looked at Ban Hye-jin.
This is because he was surprisingly meticulous.
“Usually things like this are prepared in secret, right? is not it?”
Ban Hye-jin, who said that, recalled the conversation she had with Lee Si-woo’s mother.
***
“What is your name?”
“My name is Ban Hye-jin.”
Ban Hye-jin took out fruit from the refrigerator in the kitchen with Lee Si-woo’s mother.
“What is Hyejin’s relationship with Siwoo?”
“Well, I got some help.”
“help?”
“yes.”
“okay? “I don’t know what kind of help it is, but I’m glad it helped my son.”
Ban Hye-jin laughed at Lee Si-woo’s mother, Choi Woo-hee’s words, and Choi Woo-hee looked at Ban Hye-jin.
Not only Ban Hye-jin, but all the friends that Si-woo brought were all really pretty kids.
Feeling like she was seeing her old self, Woohee Choi smiled and held up the fruit.
“Have you ever peeled fruit?”
“I don’t have any, but I think I can do well if I learn.”
In response to those words, Choi Woo-hee, holding a fruit knife, showed a demonstration of peeling fruit.
Ban Hye-jin looked amazed at Choi Woo-hee’s excessive behavior, which she peeled off in an instant.
“You can do it like this. “Is it easy?”
Ban Hye-jin saw that and started imitating Choi Woo-hee.
Ban Hye-jin was able to gain a new life thanks to Lee Si-woo.
If it weren’t for Lee Si-woo, she might not be a person in this world by now.
Therefore, Ban Hye-jin wanted to repay Lee Si-woo, who had given her a new life.
That was the reason Ban Hye-jin followed Lee Si-woo.
“Oh, you’re good.”
“really?”
“really! Siwoo will like it.”
“I hope so.”
Woohee Choi smiled at those words and said.
“If you have this level of skill, you’d be good at cooking if you learned it, right?”
“really?”
“okay! “I needed some help because tomorrow is Siwoo’s birthday. If it’s okay, would you mind helping me out tomorrow?”
Ban Hye-jin looked surprised at Choi Woo-hee’s words.
It was because I received unexpected information.
“yes? Birthday?!”
“Oh my, didn’t you know?”
“Yes, I had no idea.”
“also… Maybe it’s because he takes after his dad, but he doesn’t have the slightest interest in himself. “I guess he forgot his birthday again this year.”
“that… … .”
Choi Woo-hee said after seeing Ban Hye-jin looking sad.
“Hmm, do you have any good ideas to surprise Siwoo?”
9.
“Um, mother… … .”
I came out of the room and went to see my mother.
Even though it was only for a week, staying in a camp with as many as six guests was only possible with the permission of my parents.
My mother, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, saw me and her eyes sparkled.
“why?”
“I… that is… … .”
Before I could say anything, my mother struck first.
“That’s right, that’s right. “By the way, son, who are you?”
“yes?”
“There were four pretty girls! Do you have a favorite? The blonde you brought in first? Or red hair? Hmm, if you look like your father, you could have black hair. Or are you that cute kid? Yep? Let me tell you. “Whoever this mom is is good.”
Mother, you are the main ruler.
“no. “The one I like.”
Will you ever feel romantic feelings towards children at this age?
This was my third time living in a novel.
It was a story about living life three times, and as a result, although I looked like a high school student on the outside, I was like an old person on the inside.
The four people my mother mentioned were all pretty and lovely children.
But to me, those children are the ones I have to protect.
It was nothing more and nothing less.
“Hmm? okay?”
Seeing my mother tilt her head, I quickly got to the point.
Because I felt like if I continued like this, I would just keep talking about girls.
“Mom, I think we should let our friends sleep at our house for a while.”
“Okay. Do that. “School is closed anyway?”
I looked rather bewildered at the permission that came easier than I expected.
“thank you!”
“No, Mom, I had to go out.”
“yes? “Where are you going?”
“Gye meeting.”
“aha… … .”
“So, don’t think insidiously that I’m not around!”
“Oh, mother! “It’s not like that!”
While I was chatting with my mother, I suddenly saw Ji Tae-hoon and Jeong Ju-won coming out.
“huh? “Do you need anything?”
Jeong Ju-won came out and answered his mother’s question.
“I’m thirsty. Can you give me some water?”
***
After receiving permission to stay in the camp, I told my friends the good news and headed to the gate with everyone.
This was because one of the gates that Geomshin had told me about was one near my house.
“Try to be careful!”
“Yes, mother!”
I said hello and tilted my head as I came out of the house.
“When did they become so close?”
This is because Ban Hye-jin, Selina, Hwang Da-bin, and Yoo Ah-ram were laughing and talking.
“I know.”
I tilted my head at Jeong Joo-won’s words.
Even Jeong Ju-won, who seemed to have all the information in the world, did not know something.
“But is it really okay for us to go alone?”
“Uh, there’s a gate that just me and Ban Hye-jin cleared.”
“what? two people?!”
Jeong Joo-won made a fuss at my words, and everyone’s eyes turned to me and Ban Hye-jin.
I left the ball to Ban Hye-jin.
“She’s not the swordsman’s daughter for nothing.”
Ban Hye-jin, who received attention at those words, made a bewildered expression.
Before Ban Hye-jin could open her mouth, I quickly walked towards the gate.
“Are you here?”
“uh.”
I looked at the gate where there was supposed to be an item corresponding to the third strongest set.
“This is the gate?”
Me, Ban Hye-jin, Hwang Da-bin, and Selina were not surprised because we had already visited the external gate, but the other friends seemed quite surprised.
“There are so many different gates in the world.”
The place we arrived at was a garbage dump not far from our house.
“If you fall like this, there’s a gate just a stone’s throw away…” … .”
“Isn’t this dangerous?”
I took the lead due to the admiration of Ji Tae-hoon and Jeong Ju-won.
“Everyone has already experienced real combat. Honestly, with our strength, I think we can easily break through most gates.”
“Oh, that was a great line just now.”
I looked embarrassed at Yoo Ah-ram’s words and took a step into the gate.
10.
So we soon entered the gate.
As soon as they entered the gate, Dabin Hwang applied a buff and Selina summoned Hwaryeong to brighten the dark gate.
“Let me check the terrain. “The monsters that are likely to appear here can be identified just by looking at the terrain.”
As I was watching Joowon Jeong analyze the terrain, I saw a monster running from afar and shouted.
“come! “Avoid everyone!”
As soon as Yoo Ah-ram heard the sound of the earth shaking, he ran forward.
Ban Hye-jin drew his sword, and Ji Tae-hoon changed his arm into that of a Behemoth.
Selina also ran forward and threw a flaming fist at the attacking monster.
Quang! A firework exploded with a sound.
At that moment, the surroundings became illuminated and the monster’s identity was revealed.
It was Drake.
I looked around and saw that.
There was something good about coming in with friends. My friends were dealing with the incoming monsters, and I was able to distract them to achieve my intended goal.
Clearing the gate was important, but finding the item came first for me.
Gloves and shoes, I was really curious about what items would come next.
There were a total of seven items needed for the strongest set. Even if you only have three of them, it’s enough to appeal to the strongest.
While I was looking around, more Drakes began to appear, and the newly appeared Drakes began to attack me.
“Are you looking for something this time like last time?”
It was Ban Hye-jin who stopped those Drakes.
Suddenly.
Ban Hye-jin, who decapitated Hana Drake with one sword, smiled.
“I’ll take care of the miscellaneous mobs, so find them quickly!”
“thank you!”
With Ban Hye-jin’s help, I was able to go around every corner of the gate.
My friends tilted their heads when they saw me wandering around without fighting with Drake.
“Lee Si-woo, what are you doing?”
Ji Tae-hoon’s voice was heard.
“I heard there’s something to look for?”
Dabin Hwang said as he struck the Drakes with a fist full of strength buffs.
At that time, Goldie, who was holding onto his shoulder tightly, hugged him, ran, and started moving towards Lee Si-woo.
“Goldie?”
Due to Goldie’s sudden actions, Hwang Da-bin kicked Drake away and chased after Goldie.
Goldie was running furiously towards somewhere.
-Quek!
“Goldie?”
When I saw Goldie approaching me and Dabin Hwang chasing after Goldie, I tilted my head and suddenly realized that Goldie was guarding the gauntlet and asked.
“Do you know where the others are?”
-Ppyuk!
Goldie’s answer brought a smile to my face.
“Guide me!”
-Quek!
As I looked to head towards where Goldie was running, Drakes were pouring out.
It seemed like I had to defeat all of these Drakes to get to where the item was.
“Lee Si-woo!”
“Siwoo!”
Ban Hye-jin and Hwang Da-bin stood to my left and right.
When I glanced at the other friends, Ji Tae-hoon and Selina were working together to deal with the Drakes, and Yoo Ah-ram was carrying out Jeong Ju-won’s instructions one by one.
Looking at it like this, it felt like these two had come to help me.
I remembered the talents of both of them.
Rage and buff.
It was a very fantastic combination.
We might have to fight like this more often in the future.
So, I spoke to the two women.
“You two. “I think we can share our talents with each other, right?”
Hwang Da-bin and Ban Hye-jin looked at me with expressions as if they were wondering what I was saying.
“Sharing talent?”
“what is that?”
“Dabin Hwang is buff, Hyejin Ban is angry. “Let’s use each other’s talents against the other.”
The talents of the two seen in the status window were talents that could be passed on to others.
As I said, the two used their talents towards each other.
Hahahaha!
Then, the effect of red and yellow light began to surround Ban Hye-jin and Hwang Da-bin.
