Chapter 224
“therefore. You just wanted to calmly organize your thoughts by yourself?”
“yes.”
“Isn’t it a separate mental breakdown?”
“yes.”
“… … .”
Same expression as usual.
Same answer as usual.
Adela was very, very well.
“Then why didn’t you answer the phone?”
“Oh, I left my phone at home. He keeps calling people he doesn’t know so… … .”
“The press?”
“yes.”
“… … I see.”
In a hectic situation, if the press keeps calling me, it seems like I will leave my phone behind and leave the house.
“Still, weren’t you able to contact me?”
“… … .”
Adela slightly bowed her head and hesitated.
He wiggled his fingers here and there, looked at my eyes, and then lowered his head again.
“… … I don’t know what to say.”
Then he lowered his head and spoke in a hushed voice.
“Even if I want to say thank you. I’m just resentful Even though I know it’s not something to be resentful about, my heart is unorganized… … .”
resentment.
I’m going to say that I killed Sanghyeon Sang.
You must have hated me for not allowing you to take revenge.
“Even when I get angry because I wonder why they judge me so arbitrarily. Knowing what’s right, I get depressed again… … .”
At the time of the incident, what I said to Adela was literally meddling.
There must have been a lot of words that would hurt Adela’s pride.
“When you think about it… … . Also, thank you for thinking that you were thinking so deeply about me… … . As much as I am thankful, I hate it again… … .”
It was the action and voice that revealed the complicated screening.
“Because that thought keeps repeating itself. I don’t know what to say to you.”
father’s death.
The little father who killed the father.
And me who killed such a little father.
Adela caught between them.
Tormented by sorrow, seized by anger, seized by exhaustion.
Adela’s agony must have been more serious than I could have imagined.
“So I couldn’t contact you.”
“… … okay.”
I hear it, and I understand it.
It’s not a big deal now, but on the first day I first set foot in this hotel, it must have been in an impoverished state that couldn’t be compared to now.
Adela at that time would probably be reluctant to contact me.
“Then are you feeling better now?”
“yes. I’ve brushed it off now.”
Adela came out again and our eyes met. Through Adela’s eyes, determination and determination could be seen.
It certainly seems to have made up its mind to some extent.
“okay. I wish I could brush it off.”
Whatever it was, it was a good thing.
“Then, will you come back to training?”
“yes. I was just about to leave today. My condition has improved to some extent.”
Come to think of it, Adela was wearing a tracksuit.
There is a private training room in the basement of this hotel, so he must have trained there.
“If you’re not fully recovered yet, you can rest a little longer.”
“no. are you okay. Certainly not in the best condition… … . I have to train. Because the skipping exam is right around the corner.”
A frown flowed from Adela’s eyes.
It was a blazing gaze that showed strong will.
However, it was not the passionate gaze that felt the brilliant light like before.
‘revenge… … .’
The firewood that is currently burning Adela’s will is vengeance.
The feeling is quite different from the previous time when the desire to rise, the desire to rise, and the sense of achievement were used as raw materials.
‘I think I know roughly what he’s thinking.’
I passed the skipping exam and safely inherited the Mystical Guard. After that, I will move in earnest to wipe out the Black Mage Tower guys.
I’m guessing that’s probably what I’m thinking.
‘If this is the case, I’m afraid I might be impatient.’
I was worried about that, and I quietly threw the hwadu.
“Because it’s not good if you overdo it. I’ll try to create a curriculum focused on recovering my physical condition.”
“As for the training schedule, I’ll leave everything to you.”
Seeing her answer like that, it doesn’t seem like she’s particularly impatient.
And the fact that you do not feel any impatience even though you hold vengeance deep in your heart is the same as saying that you have definitely finished organizing your mind.
‘If this is the case, I don’t have to worry.’
Adela found her own way.
Now, it won’t be shaken unless it’s a dizzying thing.
Judging by the hesitation, it might be a little grunting.
I won’t be shaken though.
Those eyes are those eyes.
“okay. I’ll have it ready.”
I let out a sigh of relief inwardly and got up from my seat.
“Are you going?”
“uh. gotta go You will have to go up, wash, and prepare.”
I was holding on to the kid who had just finished working out and came up for too long.
It must be uncomfortable because the sweat is all dry.
“… … yes.”
Sure enough, Adela looked down at her body and put on a disgusted expression.
When I was engrossed in the conversation, I didn’t notice. After realizing it, it must be quite embarrassing.
“Then see you in an hour. I’ll tell Sunchan in advance.”
“yes.”
Adela followed suit and rose from her seat.
“that… … .”
“It’s okay to see you off. Hurry up and get ready.”
“no. It’s not like that… … .”
Adela hesitated again.
Then he looked straight into my eyes with a determined look on his face.
“excuse me… … . So, that… … .”
But that’s for a while.
“… … thank you.”
He lowered his head with an expression of shame on the world.
“what. suddenly.”
cheeks stained red.
He wiggles his fingers with an expression of embarrassment in the world.
“I think it is too late now. I think I might have to do it late.”
Adela took a deep breath, then met my eyes again.
“Thank you very much. Thank you for saving my life. Thank you for thinking of me a lot. Thank you for continuing to worry about me. just… … . Thank you all.”
Adela’s face grew more and more red.
It must be because he is aware that he is saying something embarrassing.
“Fuck, it’s over. Then go now.”
Right after that, Adela lowered her head with a restless expression.
“I-I’ll go upstairs too. See you later!”
Then, after turning his eyes around, he turned his body 180 degrees and hurried toward the elevator.
I looked at Adela’s back, who was quickly moving away, with a small smile.
* * *
Time goes by fast.
A week has passed.
A lot happened in between.
Adela’s safe return.
A scheduled talk show appearance.
Sunchan’s minor injury.
and so on.
You don’t know how surprised I was when the real Sunchan got hurt.
With only three days left until the exam, he made the absurd mistake of falling while washing himself.
I was so dumbfounded that I couldn’t even speak.
If the Blue Mage Tower lord hadn’t obtained a high-quality potion separately, he might not have been able to take the skipping test.
If he had a conscience, Sunchan should bow in the direction of the blue mage lord every day.
Anyway, Sunchan’s injury, which was so heartbreaking, ended with a small happening.
It was fortunate indeed.
And today is the day to finally take the long-awaited skipping exam.
“Before the exam begins, I will say hello to the Mage Tower Lord and come.”
“okay. Don’t forget to bow nine times.”
“… … Would nine times be enough?”
“Did you do 108 times at all? Whatever it is, don’t do it twice like the last time. If you do it again, it will really upset you.”
“I want you to forget about that… … .”
Bowing twice in Korea is a bow to the dead.
But Sunchan didn’t know that, or maybe he had forgotten about it.
Why should I bow once, so I have to bow twice.
I guess that’s what I was thinking… … .
“No. How can I understand even bowing twice? After that, don’t cut it in half.”
“No, so that was a mistake!”
Bow twice, and at the end, lower your head and raise it halfway.
It turned out to be a perfect ancestral rite.
At that time, secretary Jeong Soo-ah was in a really good mood.
I could feel the murderous intent to kill that ungrateful thing right now through the air.
Even if you use a top-of-the-line magic freezer, you probably won’t be able to freeze the surroundings that fast.
“… … Did you do that?”
“No! It was a mistake!”
“Even if it’s a mistake, that’s a bit… … .”
“right? The blue magic tower lord even bought that expensive potion to restore her broken leg. I said hello to him… … .”
“Oh, what! How long are you going to worry about it!”
“Until you die?”
“ah. please.”
Soon-chan sighed with a reddened face.
I think I’ve used it 3 times already, but the reaction is still good.
As it is an all-time black history, it seems that it can be used forever.
Later, when Soon-chan gives birth to a child, I should sneak up on him in front of him.
would you die very well?
“Let’s make a deal. If I do something, will you forget about it?”
“hmm. What if you confess to Hee-yoon sunbaenim today?”
“No, that… … .”
“why? You were supposed to do it in the near future anyway. Because you said you were coming to support me today. Show off your good side and then kick it out.”
“… … Will that be okay?”
“If you’re going to confess anyway, that’s much better. The scenario is good.”
“Okay… … .”
Soon-chan groaned and fell asleep in thought.
He looked like a pitiful lamb, facing the choice of a lifetime.
“… … okay. I will think positively.”
“Good idea.”
“Anyway, I’ll go to the Mage Tower Lord before it’s too late.”
“Draw.”
Just like that, Sunchan leaves the waiting room.
Adela and I were the only two left in the waiting room.
“Will I succeed if I confess today?”
“I don’t know. But if you were going to do it within a month anyway, it’s true that now is the best.”
A hot confession right after passing the skipping exam. From my point of view, this has the highest success rate.
“You’re not trying to make fun of Soon-chan, who was hotly kicked in a prominent place after passing the skipping exam, right?”
“… … .”
I averted my gaze.
take this
I mean, these days, my eyesight has increased.
“Hmm. How are you feeling?”
“Looking at you talking, it seems right.”
Adela smiled bitterly.
* * *
The skipping exam is over.
“Test result. All three applicants were judged to have the appropriate qualifications. I declare my acceptance.”
Of course, the test results are all passed.
It was a very natural result.
It was so obvious that I passed, so there was no excitement.
It’s not an ordinary 6th circle, there’s no way I, who is a bitenor type 6th circle, can’t pass the skipping exam.
Not surprising.
… … only.
It wasn’t entirely surprising.
“This is it… … .”
oh my god this happened
can’t be this amazing
“Wow, that gangster does everything about real love.”
Senior Ma Jin-seok looked at Jin Hee-yoon and laughed.
“Iknow, right. That motherfucker does everything about love.”
I also laughed when I saw Soon-chan laughing broadly next to him.
“… … This is what it really is.”
really.
Surprisingly, Sunchan’s confession succeeded.
Senior Jin Hee-yoon accepted Soon-chan’s confession as it was.
The two became our Olympiad member’s first couple.
“Eh. Poor Sunchan. You will suffer greatly.”
Senior Ma Jin-seok looked at Soon-chan with a look of sincere pity.
It is an expression that sincerely regrets Soonchan.
“Isn’t Hee-yoon more precious than Sun-chan?”
“What’s wrong with that wig? Sunchan is much more precious.”
I always feel it, but these two are like siblings.
It’s like a younger brother who is the only one who doesn’t admit that his sister is pretty.
“Well, we like each other. I should congratulate you though. uh what a waste. Such a waste.”
Senior Ma Jin-seok walked toward Hee-yoon and Sun-chan, repeating, “It’s a waste.”
Right after that, senior Ma Jin-seok muttered something to senior Hee-yoon.
“What, you bastard?”
Right after that, Hee-yoon sunbaenim changed his look like Suranachal and started beating Ma Jin-seok like dust on a rainy day.
“OK. Today you will die and I will die.”
“hey! time! Seeing that kind of violence in front of you and your boyfriend… … . Whoops!”
“Shut up and die!”
And laughter rang out all around.
“You still do it.”
Adela sneaked up to me and started talking to me.
“So what.”
You seem to be thinking a lot about something.
“… … What are you going to do now?”
“What’s up?”
“It’s a plan for the future. Are you preparing to become the head of the family in earnest by inheriting and operating the affiliate?”
“hmm. It’s not even serious. You have to prepare slowly. I make my own people, and I build my position… … .”
Since Minhyuk hyung-nim gave up the competition for the next head of household, there are no other competitors.
However, you should prepare in advance. That way there won’t be any backtracking.
“You must be busy.”
Adela replied calmly.
“Then what are you going to do?”
“I mean… … You’ll be busy moving. While my mother is acting as head of household, I am increasing my influence. I will solidify my position and become the family head who receives everyone’s support. And I will elevate the position of the Mystical House to an incomparable height.”
Adela’s eyes shone sharply.
“And then, we should prepare to fight the Black Mage Tower guys.”
Adela clenched her fists.
Thinking of the black mage tower guys, it seemed like he was suppressing his anger and swallowing it.
“I see.”
After my words, there was a moment of silence.
Of course, even if it’s quiet, it’s just that Adela and I are quiet.
The surroundings were still buzzing.
“Could you give me some time tomorrow?”
“Tomorrow?”
“uh. I have something to say.”
I turned to Adela and met her eyes.
“If you intend to continue fighting the Black Magic Tower, it would be good for you to know at least the story between the Black Magic Tower and me.”
