3 – Too many S-class girlfriends (4)
004.
Gate in Mapo-gu, Seoul.
You usually have a party here and pass through the gate to enter the tower.
I also have experience using gates by forming a party as a disposable porter.
At that time, I used the gate lonely while eating a snack…….
“Huh? Seojun, what is it? What’s the matter?”
When I glanced around, there was Lee Ji-hyeon staring at me. He adjusts his oversized sunglasses like a celebrity and looks at me.
I never dreamed that the day would come when I would form a party with an S-class hunter and use the gate.
Even with her girlfriend.
– Beep.
I arrived at the gate before I knew it.
I took my hunter’s license to the terminal installed at the gate entrance.
It was a license to prove that he was a hunter. The terminal’s sensor flashed once, and the green light bulb grew larger with a short beep. Immediately, the phrase ‘Thank you for using E-class Hunter Han Seo-joon’ came to mind.
No wait.
What?
“E-class hunter?”
“Oh, that’s right. Seo Joon-ah. You were promoted a few months ago.”
“Really?”
I never thought I would become an E-class hunter.
To be honest, I was a little bewildered because I had been told numerous times that I had no talent as a hunter.
I thought it would take a little longer to get promoted to E-rank Hunter.
Of course, becoming an E-rank Hunter wasn’t too difficult, but in any case, in my memory, I was an F-rank Hunter until yesterday.
After opening my eyes, I am an E-class hunter…… Nice good.
“This place is still the same.”
As I entered the Mapo-gu gate, things like the Hunter-only window and various bulletin boards in the exchange caught my eye.
It was organized neatly and calmly like a bank, and the gate staff were welcoming the hunters with a smile.
Looking at the clock, I could see the hunters waiting to use the warp gate, and some hunters waiting to get a number ticket and consult with the staff.
As always, countless hunters gathered together to challenge the tower.
It was then.
“Hey…… That’s right, Jihyun Lee…… ?”
The voice of a strange woman caressed my ear.
There was a woman who looked to be in her early to mid-twenties.
I took a good look at the woman’s face.
A strange woman with bobbed hair was staring at Lee Ji-hyun hesitantly.
Like the president of a fan club who found a celebrity on the street, his flushed face and sparkling eyes were impressive.
Lee Ji-hyun lowered his black sunglasses and looked at the short-haired woman with a bored expression.
Then, after peeking at my face once, I can’t help but turn her head and look at the woman’s face again.
“Yes. That’s right.”
“Wow! Lee, Lee, Lee Ji-hyun! I’m such a fan! I mean, I’ve really liked Lee Ji-hyun since the academy!”
“Oh, yes. You see.”
Oh my gosh, the woman greeted Lee Ji-hyun with a fuss, and Lee Ji-hyun frowned as if she was slightly annoyed.
However, he immediately greeted the woman with an appropriate smile.
The bobbed-haired woman handed Lee Ji-hyun her pen and paper, from which she did not know where she got them.
“Me, me! Could you give me your autograph?”
“… ….”
Lee Ji-hyeon glanced at my face again.
“Please! I’ll just get your autograph and go right away!”
“…… Yes you are.”
The bobbed-haired woman secretly let out a deep sigh and handed over her pen and paper as if she couldn’t help it, and gave her a sigh.
She gave me a rough sign, but the bobbed woman didn’t even care, and smiled brightly with her delighted eyes.
‘…… The fans seem to like it even though he behaves bluntly like that.’
Since ancient times, because of his rude behavior, he has been called a prickly man in a joke. From the fans’ point of view, Lee Ji-hyun’s behavior may be quite familiar.
‘…… Anyway, Jihyun is really popular.’
I glanced around.
Hunters are looking at us from a little further away and saying, ‘What is it? Are you really Lee Ji-hyun?’ ‘It’s a jackpot’, ‘I want to get an autograph too’, he whispered.
It was as popular as a real celebrity.
Until now, I hadn’t realized much, but when I came to a place where people gathered like this with Lee Ji-hyun, I could definitely feel my girlfriend’s popularity.
‘If I post on the Hunter Gallery that I went to the gate with Lee Ji-hyun, there will be an uproar, right?’
I was waiting for Lee Ji-hyun, thinking about things that are not very poetic.
By the way.
“Huh? The person next to you…… ?”
Huh?
The bobbed-haired woman who had been staring at Lee Ji-hyun for a long time asked a question with her eyes blinking, wondering if she had finally found me.
Lee Ji-hyun licked her lips once or twice for a moment, then suddenly gave an answer.
“He is my friend. She said that she became a Hunter, so I want to go back together once.”
“Ah…… That’s right…….”
The woman’s face was complex and subtle.
Envy, envy, and jealousy were mixed.
“But recently, with a love scandal…… Ah. Hmm. No, nothing.”
As the woman looked closely at me, she had a questioning look in her eyes, wondering if she might be the main character of a love scandal these days, but she quickly shook her head.
“Thank you for the autograph, Jihyun Lee! I will always support you!”
“Yes.”
Anyway, the bobbed-haired woman squealed and hugged her signed paper in her arms, and she laughed.
Lee Ji-hyeon and I hurriedly moved forward with our bobbed hair behind us as we thanked them.
Lee Ji-hyun snorted as if he was in a bad mood when he got a little farther away from people.
“Ha. Did you just see it?”
“Huh? What?”
“That look in your eyes that says you can’t be my boyfriend. Ignoring people is also oily. Really annoying.”
“No, something like that. To be honest, it’s not wrong.”
E-rank Hunter and S-rank Hunter.
Definitely not a suitable combination.
If I wasn’t Lee Ji-hyun’s childhood friend, we wouldn’t even be able to talk.
“…… You, Han Seo-joon.”
Are you not satisfied with what I am saying?
Lee Ji-hyun looked straight into my eyes with her sunglasses down slightly.
Suddenly speaking in a strong tone.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Really annoying. In a situation like this, can you reveal your relationship?”
“Hey, hey.”
It was a scary sound to hear.
You just saw that short-haired girl’s face.
That look in your eyes, angry with jealousy because you and I are together.
When she closed her eyes, her hamstrings numb for no reason.
It’s scary. It’s scary.
“Really, really. I’m not even a celebrity, so why do I have to be like this?”
“You acted as a Hunter ambassador. Aren’t you a public figure?”
I remember that you often appeared on TV because the government and the clan supported you?
Isn’t that enough publicity?
“Tsk. It’s annoying. Because it is contractually bound. Well, it’s not too long now.”
Lee Ji-hyun shook his head.
“Anyway, let’s use the gate quickly. Before people crowd around…… Ah.”
– Tiriling. Tiriling.
Suddenly, the cell phone rang.
As he moved his head toward the source of the phone ring, he realized that it was Lee Ji-hyun’s cell phone.
Lee Ji-hyun frowned as he looked at the standby screen of his cell phone.
It seemed like a phone call I didn’t like.
“There is a call from the clan.”
With those words, Lee Ji-hyun tut and clicked his tongue.

“I think it was because of the phone call earlier… ….”
“Doesn’t the vacation process go well?”
“Okay.”
Lee Ji-hyun answered quietly with an ambiguous expression and grabbed his cell phone tightly.
“I’m sorry, but please wait a moment. I’ll get a call and come back.”
“Jihyun?”
Lee Ji-hyeon moved her steps with an expression of sorry eyes.
I stared blankly at Lee Ji-hyun’s back.
As expected, it seems to have many problems.
“This is true.”
I felt a little sorry for the Sephiroth Clan because it was half my fault.
Lee Ji-hyun was answering the phone some distance away.
I was saying something while frowning, but it seemed like I would have to wait a while before the phone call ended. I don’t know why he’s talking on the phone with such an annoyed expression.
I stood blankly and looked at my son-in-law.
The area was crowded with hunters.
How long do I have to wait?
I wish I had a cell phone in my hand.
‘I need to buy a cell phone quickly or something.’
I usually spend my free time looking at the Hunter Gallery. Awesome. I’m bored.
That was the moment I had been waiting for Lee Ji-hyun to return.
I heard people’s voices in the distance.
“Hey, hey. Look over there Isn’t that woman Seoyoon Choi?”
“Choi Seoyoon? The eldest daughter of Ilsung Group?”
“By the way, it’s pretty. Seeing it in person, she is a complete goddess, right?”
I heard a chattering sound.
Some people are peeping and talking.
I turned my head to ask for something.
I saw a crowd gathered at a distance.
In the midst of the crowd, a woman with long hair stood out.
The woman was standing in the middle of the crowd with a quiet and bored expression on her face.
Should I say Gungye Ilhak?
Even though he was still, he looked brighter than anyone else. He was a man with a charm that drew people’s attention.
“… ….”
I took a good look at the woman’s face.
Her hair, bright blue reminiscent of Canglang, extends all the way down to her shoulder blades.
It is smooth and shiny, scattering blue light whenever the woman moves her head.
His eyelashes were long, and his eyes sparkled purple, like jewels full of eggs.
Her nose was straight and her lips were small and small, connoting a typical Asian beauty.
It reminded me of Kyushu, a foster family’s house.
I felt like a flower in a greenhouse that had never had a drop of water on my hands.
But apart from that, the woman’s face was as cold as a cold wave in the north.
She was famous for her soft smile like a warm spring breeze when she laughed, but when she was paradoxically making a bored expression, only her face was so cold that she couldn’t even read her emotions.
I’ve been spying on her for a while.
I never expected to see that woman here.
So I was a little surprised.
‘Choi Seoyoon Hunter.’
That woman’s name is Seoyoon Choi. She
She is the granddaughter of Ilsung Group, a conglomerate representing Korea.
I don’t know why she works as a hunter since she is a member of Ilsung Group, but her talent is real.
She
She graduated from Hunter Academy at the top of her class and possessed very strong S-class abilities. She is said to have a senior-junior relationship with Lee Ji-hyun, but she is called one of the supernovas along with Lee Ji-hyun, and she has received attention and expectations from many people.
The dominant evaluation is that he is one of the future leaders who will shoulder the Republic of Korea in the future.
‘It’s so pretty.’
Unlike Lee Ji-hyun, who boasts her Western-style charm, she was a bit short and fresh, but we couldn’t deny the fact that she was a beautiful woman comparable to Lee Ji-hyun.
‘Come to think of it, wasn’t Seoyoon Choi also in the top 5 of the beauty hunter rankings?’
In popularity polls for her hunter beauty, she always ranked within her top five fingers. She
She was one of the people who were always mentioned when choosing a beautiful hunter.
Like Lee Ji-hyun, her male fan base was very thick.
If Lee Ji-hyun gained popularity with her tough and charismatic charm, Choi Seo-yoon gained popularity with her cold face but warm smile.
It’s not that her fans look at her Choi Seo-yoon for no reason and call her ‘Cool Seo-yoon’ or ‘Smile Seo-yoon’.
‘There was a time when she was a bit noisy at the Hunter Gallery, saying that Lee Ji-hyun was prettier or Choi Seo-yoon was prettier.’
Her voter turnout was almost boiling in my memory.
Maybe it was simply a difference in taste?
It was a long time ago, so I can’t remember.
She was thinking about Choi Seo-yoon for a while.
“…… Ah.”
Choi Seo-yoon quietly let out her exclamation as if she was slightly surprised.
There was an illusion that her eyes met Seo-yoon Choi who turned her head, albeit briefly.
Suddenly, her Seoyoon Choi shoulder twitched.
She began to stare at me in silence.
‘Huh? What? Why are you looking this way?’
I averted my gaze, unable to calm my perplexed mind.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Her strange feelings sprouted.
…… Oh yeah.
Does Choi Seo-yoon know anyone around me?
That was a plausible idea.
I looked around in puzzlement.
But there was no one around.
I was alone.
“Huh?”
With her expressionless expression, Seoyoon Choi moved her steps naturally and started walking towards her.
She could see that the corners of Choi Seo-yoon’s mouth, which had been maintaining her insipid expression just before, twitched very slightly.
As she made her way through the crowd, the people around her couldn’t help but gawk at Seoyoon Choi’s sudden action and look bewildered.
Ttogak. Again.
The quiet sound of shoes resounded.
I inadvertently swallowed my dry saliva at the sight of Choi Seo-yoon approaching me step by step with a slow but graceful gait.
For some reason, I was very slightly nervous.
Suddenly, Seoyoon Choi came close to me.
Her purple eyes stared at me and she slowly pursed her lips as she lifted her head slightly.
“Me.”
In a very beautiful voice, as if a jade marble was suddenly rolling, he said hello.
“Hello. Long time no see.”
…… Oh, huh?
