unity contest
“Let’s just end here. It’s time to go to work soon.”
It’s been a long time since I’ve had a sparring with Sejin, but I’m sure the sword has become much sharper than before as I’ve had a lot of real battles.
“ah… Can’t we just do one more?”
“I don’t like being overworked. I have to go and eat and get ready.”
Seeing her white clothes stained with sweat, she must have been pretty tired, but Sejin is really sincere.
“here. Just wipe your face for a bit. Drink this too.”
Using subspace magic, he brought out a towel and a sports drink.
“Oh, thank you.”
“Why are you only giving him? please give me too!”
Luciel grumbled from the side.
A chocolate bar or a guy who doesn’t even look at it.
I used subspace magic again to bring out a piece of chocolate milk.
“That’s not your taste. You eat this.”
“I think it’s really nice to be in a space where time goes 30 times slower.”
“It’s not all that good. If you stay here, you will age 30 times faster than other people.”
“uh? Come to think of it, yes.”
Of course, Sejin also learned the inner spirit method and reached the peak level, so it wouldn’t be a serious problem.
Even when he declared that he would not date either of them, he thought that there would be a strong backlash.
But surprisingly, everyone readily agreed.
Luciel grumbled too, but she allowed Sejin to come here.
Even Sejin, who had been complaining, seemed quite satisfied.
Sejin is coming here and occasionally taking care of sparring, so work has increased a bit, but that’s okay.
Luciel’s annoyance also increased a little, but I think it’s fortunate that this is enough.
In the worst case, I thought there was a possibility that I would become awkward with everyone, but both Luciel and Sejin’s attitude towards me hasn’t changed much compared to before.
“Hey, aren’t you going?”
“I will go if the teacher goes.”
Luciel glares at Sejin and argues with him.
The atmosphere suddenly became weird again, but honestly, it’s not a big problem.
The two still don’t get along, but they don’t fight back and forth, they just bicker like this.
The odds are slim, but if the two become friends… .
No, let’s not think like that.
“yes. Then I will go first.”
“What time are you coming back? I don’t think I’ll be back until 7 o’clock after work.”
He said he would come on time, and when he tore the leaves, he saw a familiar ceiling.
This is the hotel where you will stay during your vacation.
Luciel also jumps out right away.
“Let’s hang out.”
“What are you playing with? I have work to do.”
“What happened? Did that ugly kid say he was taking vacation?”
“… to meet someone I’ll order you a delicious dessert, so you stay here.”
“Nope? I can’t get away from the necklace anyway.”
“Then let go.”
Trying to untie the necklace… what?
no rings
“Luciel, how do you solve this?”
“Can’t you solve that?”
“You say you can’t solve it? Don’t play around, let it go.”
“I’m serious?”
“Then break it.”
Luciel makes a serious expression as I make a sword steel on my finger.
“Are you going to choose that ugly boy?”
“No, why are you talking nonsense when you ask me to take off the necklace?”
“I told you that the necklace contains half of my soul. If you break the necklace, my soul will break too.”
“what?”
“The other half over there will take a lot of damage. Sleep for at least a thousand years, or maybe even get corrupted right away… .”
It’s like a threat.
“I won’t break it, so release it. What do you do when you shower or go to the bathroom? Are you sure you want to see that too?”
As Sejin said, this guy is really bad.
“That… Who sees that! You can’t see it, you can’t see it.”
“How can you believe that? You can pretend you didn’t even see it. Please respect my personal privacy.”
“Now come again… . It’s okay if I stay like this.”
“You said you couldn’t get away from the necklace?”
Now that I see it, it’s not a necklace, it’s like shackles.
“Where are you going? Are you going to meet another woman?”
How did know?
“What, why no answer? Are you really going to see another woman?”
He’s staring so fiercely that in a little while, lasers will come out of his eyes.
“I’m going to meet Mr. Kim.”
“If you’re talking about Mr. Kim, you’re talking about the guy who confessed, not the ugly guy, right?”
“yes.”
“Why are you meeting him? Originally, he said he was going to choose an ugly boy over that girl. So he didn’t get eliminated in the preliminaries?”
Missing the preliminaries… It’s not wrong, but the expression is so.
Where else did you learn these words?
“You said you wouldn’t fall in love. We are meeting to sort things out.”
In fact, there is a possibility that both Luciel and Sejin will fall for Kim Dohyeon, so there is no need to refuse in advance.
Teacher Kim didn’t ask for an answer right away, he said he would wait… .
But for that reason, if you continue to be ambiguous without saying anything to Mr. Kim, that’s really trash.
Mr. Kim is not an insurance company.
If Luciel hadn’t intervened, I would have confessed to Sejin and told Mr. Kim I’m sorry.
Although I chose Sejin over Mr. Kim, Mr. Kim is also a valuable colleague and acquaintance.
You can’t have hope torture knowing that there is no possibility.
If I refuse, I won’t be as friendly as before, but I’ll have to deal with that.
mouth is bitter

“Luciel, stop going in now.”
I talked about the situation, but the necklace was really impossible to wear off, so I had no choice but to come with the guy.
“You said you were organizing it, but you didn’t include that woman, right?”
“How many times do you ask? No, so go in.”
“I will watch everything.”
At the same time as the words, Luciel disappeared along with the light.
The weather is very sunny, but my heart is so heavy.
I took a deep breath, took my phone out of my pocket, and called Mr. Kim.
-Yes, Mr. Kang.
“I am in front of the house now.”
―Oh, did you arrive already?
“Maybe it’s not commuting time, so there’s not much traffic… .”
―That’s right. Well, I think it will take a little longer. Would you like to come in and wait? I’ll show you our cats too.
“it’s okay. Please contact me when you come out.”
After waiting for about 10 minutes, the door opened and Mr. Kim came out.
High heels that look pretty high with a bright dress.
At school, he always wore only a gown, and when we went to attack portals together, he only wore comfortable clothes, but he looked great.
I think you’re probably thinking that we’re going on a date… .
Like Luciel said, should we have just talked on the phone?
No, no matter how hard it is, I can’t tell you this without seeing your face.
“Mr. Kang!”
Seeing him approaching with a bright smile makes me feel guilty.
“hello.”
“It is a very hot day.”
“Yes. I see. Would you like to get on?”
“Yes.”
With teacher Kim in the passenger seat, I also got in the driver’s seat.
“Sir Kang… .”
“Yes?”
“Can you please turn on the air conditioner? The tea is completely steamed.”
ah… I’m not cold-blooded, so I don’t play it, and Luciel isn’t the type that’s very sensitive to temperature, so I didn’t even think about it.
It won’t be long anyway, but I turned the air conditioner on to maximum.
“Looking at it now, it seems that teacher Kang has the same style as my father.”
“Yes?”
“Even my father doesn’t turn on the air conditioner because the oil runs out quickly. I have a lot of money, but I still run the air conditioner. I thought it was a fire, not a car.”
“sorry.”
“You don’t have to be so sorry… . Rather, where are we going? Isn’t it somewhere like the sea or a valley? I didn’t bring those clothes. Shall I bring it now?”
It’s completely high tension.
“I-over there… I said I had something to tell you earlier, but I don’t think I said anywhere.”
“You like me. After talking, we can go play. What are you talking about?”
“Last time you said you had a heart for me… .”
“uh? He asked to see me first, so I did it just in case… Could it be that you asked to see the answer today?”
Seeing that Mr. Kim’s cheeks were red, he seemed to think I would give a positive answer.
“I’m really sorry, but I want you to stop thinking about it now.”
I expected it, but my expression immediately hardened.
“Can you tell me why you say that?”
Coldness overflows from the horse.
“The reason is… .”
“Are you Sejin?”
“Yes? Why is Sejin suddenly… .”
“I know that Sejin likes Mr. Kang.”
“How, by any chance… .”
“I was wondering, but it looks like Sejin. I didn’t hear it myself, but should I say it was a woman’s intuition?”
“Yes?”
“Last time when Sejin went home, Sejin looked at the teacher the same way I did?”
I had no idea… .
I’m not dating Sejin, so should I tell the truth?
Well, there’s so much to explain… .
‘I was thinking about Sejin and Mr. Kim, but I was going to choose Sejin, but Luciel suddenly said he liked me, so I thought I wouldn’t be able to choose between the two, so I decided not to meet anyone and not even date.’
Saying these things is tantamount to killing Mr. Kim twice.
“I’m not dating Sejin.”
“Then why… Could it be that there was another woman?”
“… .”
Perhaps you thought that silence was affirmation, but it was a look of complete disappointment.
Can not help it.
If I said I was dating Sejin here, 100% Luciel would have popped out.
That would make things a lot more complicated.
So I was going to take off the necklace and come back… .
“Are you not lying? If not Sejin, who the hell are you?”
“I don’t think there is any reason why I should tell Mr. Kim… . sorry.”
I feel like crying right now… No, tears fall drop by drop.
I wanted to end it well without hurting as much as possible, but it seems that it was impossible.
Well, I’m not accepting a confession, I’m refusing it, so there’s no way it could end well.
Eventually, Mr. Kim left the car.
Leaving behind the words that Mr. Kang is the worst.
It would be right to do this, but I feel very uncomfortable.
The light appeared as if Luciel was about to pop out again, but the light disappeared soon after blocking the inner air to the necklace.
“I want to be alone for a bit now.”
If Luciel came out and made fun of Mr. Kim right now, I would hate him so much.

“Sir, isn’t that airplane super cute?”
“It’s completely pink, isn’t it? It’s small, so cute is just my style.”
“Class president, is that cute? i’m anxious Sir, don’t planes like that just crash when the wind blows hard?”
There are few people going to Muan Airport, so the plane is quite small.
Girls like it, but some of them look a little anxious.
“If you’re that anxious, Hyunsik takes a bus that takes over four hours to come.”
“ah… no.”
“Then stop talking like dog poop and start typing.”
The exterior is not the usual passenger plane, but it feels a bit like a light aircraft, but the interior is not much different when I rode it myself.
Rather, the seats are wider than regular airliners, and the price is definitely cheaper even in peak season.
When I went to Jeju Island, it took 30 minutes, but it took about an hour to arrive at Muan Airport, probably because the plane was small and slow.
At first, Jaehyun decided to go to Hampyeong, where there is a pension run by his uncle, but he was hospitalized due to poor health, so he changed the location to a pension in Muan.
Even if it doesn’t take long from here in the first place, the itinerary itself is not long at 2 days and 1 night.
After all, Muan Island is a beach, so there is a beach.
Called several taxis and divided the children to pick them up and arrived at the pension.
It’s a city I didn’t even know the name of, but since it’s summer, there are quite a few people.
Of course, it’s not completely crowded because it’s not a famous place like Haeundae or Gyeongpodae.
I’m a little worried when I think of the kids being hunted in Jeju Island last year… Wouldn’t it be okay since most of them are family units?
