375 – [7] Even as a bodyguard
#375
* * *
I succeeded in persuading Ines.
No, actually, I think persuasion is correct.
I had no idea that he would accept it right away when I just put my face in front of him and made an offer.
Because of this, I was thinking about offering carrots to Ines when she refused, but thanks to that, there was no need for that.
“But no matter how much I look, I don’t know why I was accepted so suddenly.”
But it wasn’t all that good.
It was because I thought that Ines’ sudden acceptance might turn into a wrong snowball in the future.
Maybe I was worrying too much, but to be honest, it was right for Ines to snap out of her usual personality.
Discriminationist, yard and pound lover, with a strange sense of Southernness.
The woman who put this all together was Ines.
But you just accepted it because I suggested it?
I received an award.
It seemed like there was some malicious intent.
You wouldn’t come into my room and kidnap me while I was sleeping, right?
You won’t hand it over to the hip friends wearing white cones, right?
If so, it would be right for her to lock the door before going to sleep from now on.
I didn’t want to film ‘Into the South on Foot’.
It seemed like a delusion, but it was an inevitable delusion because she was so politically incorrect.
Of course, in recent years, there has been less or no discrimination with malicious intent.
Still, making discriminatory remarks even without malicious intent is a problem in itself.
I really don’t know what America’s rainbow-colored friends are doing.
If you had captured Inez and made her politically correct a long time ago, I wouldn’t have had to worry about this.
On the other hand, if she had done that, she would have already developed piety as the main character.
This means that she could have become a real saint, unlike someone who pollutes the word saint by calling herself a saint.
I also believed in religion at the time, so I guess it was just like that.
In reality, such a thing was nothing more than a dream, so it was a truly lamentable reality.
And what was even more lamentable was that even in this condition, her growth was steady.
“It’s a shame because it seems like I’m steadily getting stronger…… If it weren’t for that…… Tsk.”
Achievements over the past year.
Ines, who played in the lower ranks of the academy, no longer existed.
Thanks to her hard work while other cadets were growing, she was able to reach the top of the academy.
The main character was definitely the main character.
She can grow by just doing some exercise, improving her posture, and learning expensive combat textbooks.
If I can maintain this pace, I will surpass everyone else just before graduation.
Perhaps in the near future, we may be able to deal with thousands of birds ‘in our own way.’
The reason for adding the word ‘in its own way’ is because even though there are a thousand of them, they don’t just stay still.
If you stay at home, exercise, hunt regularly, and eat good food, how can you stop being strong?
In fact, that guy is also an Ilchwiwoljang.
And this guy is also Ilchiwoljang.
Even Shannon learns various magic and improves her magic efficiency.
On the other hand, I… ….
“I don’t know.”
Compared to before, everything has improved.
I had no choice but to get better because I got this and that good stuff from a thousand people, or I got it and ate it myself.
But will this continue?
The reason so many hunters rely on equipment is because the growth rate of awakened beings becomes extremely slow at some point.
Rather than an issue like age, it felt like a limit set for each person.
– The level you can comfortably reach is 30!
– Now that you have reached level 30, the experience required to level up increases tremendously!
No more, that feeling.
If that moment came earlier than expected, my life as a hunter was over.
I may never be able to see the World Tree’s amazing fire show in my lifetime.
Damn, I need to grow up to the point where I can see the World Tree burning to death up close.
I feel like I’m becoming more and more worried.
I wonder if there was ever a time when I didn’t have to worry.
I sighed and finished cleaning the room where Ines was staying.
“You should tell them to take care of the rest themselves.”
There is still some dust left, but the cleaning is done anyway.
Now all I had to do was call someone I knew and bring her and her luggage.
* * *
Ines arrived with all her luggage packed.
She looked at her own room and nodded her head as if she liked it.
“Hmm! “At this level, I could just bring the furniture I had at home and leave it there!”
“Would you like me to help you bring it?”
“It’s okay! I disassembled everything and brought it with me anyway! “Everyone is outside the house now.”
“Minute…… Sun?”
When I headed outside the house, there was a pile of things that looked like pieces of wood.
Cheonmaly was staring blankly next to him as if asking what on earth that was.
“What is this?”
“He asked me to load it, so I loaded it…… “Isn’t this just pure trash?”
Oh, a thousand sheep, that’s too harsh a word.
Please reduce it to the level of unrecoverable household waste.
“Uh-huh! What trash! All the furniture here! “I made it myself using the proud American wood!”
“You made it?”
“Yes! “If you’re a true hunter, shouldn’t you do this?”
I don’t know what Hunter has to do with handmade furniture, but it was amazing anyway.
Actually, I don’t know if it will be sorted out if I put it roughly like this.
“Don’t worry! “If you number each part and sort it, you can assemble it all!”
“Wow…… “This is really amazing.”
“Hmm! If you need furniture too, let me know! “But my house is in the countryside—”
“But there are no bed bugs in this, right?”
It was a thought that suddenly occurred to me.
But even if it were Ines, it doesn’t seem like she wouldn’t have paid that much attention.
“Bed bugs? How can I be a hunter if I care about such things? Southerners don’t care about that kind of thing—”
“Hey, take all this away. “Bedbugs from the South are transmitted.”
“No! No! For a moment! In fact, I have already confirmed everything a while ago! So don’t throw it away!”
You should have said that a long time ago.
Of course, her words were not 100% trusted, so everyone gathered together and checked each and every part.
“Mr. Xian…… Why am I doing this here…….”
“This is the landlord’s order, Mr. Shannon.”
“Wow…….”
“Gangsi, I think my eyes are going to fall out. “Can I go home and play a VR game?”
“One round is one hour long. And if your eyes hurt, you should rest. It’s some kind of VR game.”
“Hehehe! “The workaholic male friend is squeezing his female friend!!!”
“No, how many times haven’t I told you that? “I did the inspection a long time ago.”
“But that was quite a while ago. In the meantime, you may have invited your boyfriend to your house. “Isn’t it possible that bedbugs could have sneaked in through that person?”
“What nonsense! “For the past two years, the only man who has come in and out of my house is you, you idiot!”
However, it did not go smoothly.
These people keep trying to escape somewhere.
In such an important situation, how dare you?
I had no intention of allowing them to escape.
“Huh?”
And that was when I was endlessly listening to the three women whining.
I felt a familiar presence behind me.
“Xian? Number of animals? “What are they doing out there?”
“Oh, Su-a’s sister came just at the right time.”
An acquaintance who needs to be taken care of, just like Ines.
So I called as soon as the cleaning was over, and he arrived at the right time.
I welcomed her.
She let him into her house right away.
Of course, she did not go into her house alone.
I, who had turned on automatic hunting in the yard, also headed to the living room.
“You bastard Jiangshi!!! “Come out now!!!”
“Ueenn!!!”
“You idiot!!! Why should I deal with a guy like that…… Ugh!!!”
Judging from the sound, it seems that automatic hunting is working well.
As expected, automatic hunting is best done with acquaintances.
I was reassured by the S-class automatic hunting and sat down across from Su-a.
“I…… “Is it Jiangshi?”
“Yes, sister?”
“That…… About what we talked about on the phone earlier…….”
What we talked about on the phone earlier.
There was only one.
“I told you if you wanted to live with me at my house for the time being.”
“Uh. By the way… ….”
She asked me if I had any intention of living together like Ines.
Of course, considering Su-ah’s personality, she would get it for her cute little brother.
Because she is not the type of person to reject an offer.
However, even considering her personality, Su-ah had a somewhat regretful expression on her face.
“Whoa…” ….”
She eventually turned her head and looked at the yard where automatic hunting was taking place.
She looked back at each person with a very strange expression.
“I don’t think I can live with my sister.”
And the rejection that came out.
I was startled and gently pushed my face towards Su-ah.
“Yes? Why?”
“Even my sister. “I want to be around to see our Sian working hard.”
“Then we can live together. What’s the problem…….”
“There are a lot of problems. In fact, if it had been written down, my sister would have been able to endure it to some extent, but since that is not the case, there is nothing I can do about it.”
He tilted his head.
What do you mean there are so many problems?
“The public’s opposition to the idea of a cadet and a professor living together plays a part, the fact that the commuting distance is too far plays a part, and the fact that Sian listens to my lectures also plays a part… ….”
“Ah.”
It was my mistake.
If you were a cadet, there were a lot of problems that a professor would find difficult.
“But that doesn’t mean my sister hates our Sian. This is just…… “It’s because I think it might cause harm to our Si-an too.”
“I’m sorry, sister…… “I guess I looked at it too only from my own perspective.”
An apology flowing out reflexively.
Soo-ah’s kind gaze was enough to make me admit my mistakes right away.
“So, Sian can also understand your sister’s situation, right?”
“Yes…… Sorry.”
“There is no need to apologize too much because it wasn’t immediately a problem.”
Soon, he stroked my head.
It was cold yet warm, and it also felt cozy.
“And my sister has the ability to protect herself. “You don’t have to worry too much.”
“Even if I’m a bodyguard─”
“It’s okay. Instead, if our Sian becomes my sister’s bodyguard…… “I’ll think about it a little bit.”

A slightly uplifted voice was felt at the end.
It felt like I was suppressing my emotions.
It seemed sad that we couldn’t live together.
If you can’t be my bodyguard even after seeing something like this, it’s not polite to treat someone you’ve known for a long time.
I told Su-ah that although it wouldn’t be a few hours, she would probably be a security guard for a few minutes to a few tens of minutes.
Only after hearing those words did she look relieved.
“I would appreciate it if you could do something like that, sister.”
It was a truly generous attitude.
I can’t believe you agreed even though it was only a few minutes of security.
I am the one who suggested this, but I feel like I am the one who feels sorry.
If this was the case, I couldn’t ask for anything later.
“It’s enough for my sister to just see our Sian every now and then.”
Ugh.
I feel more sorry.
Actually, while I was here, I was thinking of asking Su-ah to look for bedbugs with me.
But, with words and actions like these, I don’t think she can make such a suggestion.
I am a person full of conscience and friendship.
He was not a person with a mask on his face.
For that reason, Su-ah’s sister was left as is.
Chunsik, who was working outside, decided to make the three of them work a little harder.
“Let me in~”
