161 – In the meantime, I’ve been patient enough
Regardless of the fact that we left a fairly large bomb right before leaving, we returned to Dreamers Headquarters after finishing the request.
“Whoa..”
“You worked hard.”
“Good job everyone.”
Putting aside the things that will follow after this, it was right to take a break and enjoy the joy of victory anyway, as he had led the battle to victory.
“Okay, let’s celebrate this victory and toast!”
“Cheers!”
Hunters who enjoy this moment to their heart’s content by ordering deliveries or setting up their own drinks and food.
Watching them, I also began to enjoy this moment, putting down my worries for a while.
Unfortunately, in the case of Are, it was said that something suddenly happened, but I couldn’t see it. Nevertheless, there was someone by my side who was hanging out with me at this moment.
“Come on, Aide. Have a glass of mine too.”
“Thank you Glass.”
Glass smiles while pouring a drink into the glass placed in front of me.
In response, I took a sip of my drink with a smile on my face.
A slightly astringent yet sweet wine.
It wasn’t a very expensive drink, but it went well with the dishes in front of me.
“As expected, it’s great, did Glass pick this one himself?”
“Yes, it is. It is only natural for a person who prepares a dish to choose the right alcohol.”
“I see… I’ve felt it for a long time, but I think Glass is great in many ways. When it comes to cooking, cooking, and combat, it seems that there is almost nothing you can’t do.”
“hehehe, thank you for the compliment Aide.”
To my sincere words, Glass replied with a slightly embarrassed expression.
In addition to the things she actually talked about, she could be said to be the most beautiful of the members of Dreamers in terms of appearance, and her personality could be said to be quite good, except for her a little bit of cynicism.
It is not an exaggeration to say that glass is literally the highest class when it comes to the so-called female charm when viewed objectively.
Of course, from my point of view, who has not one girlfriend, but two, this part of her was not an element that I would be interested in that much, but when I saw her like that, there was one question that automatically popped into my head.
‘By the way… I’m sure that Glass is so popular with men that it will skyrocket, so why do I still not have a boyfriend?’
Although she was busy working as a Black Hunter, that didn’t mean she didn’t have much time.
In fact, Black Hunter is a job that has a lot of free time, except when there is a request or during training.
In that respect, I personally couldn’t help but feel a bit suspicious about the fact that the glass in front of me was still a solo.
‘Well, her job is on her own, but… Maybe there’s a reason. Maybe it’s because he’s simply French and has no intention of dating a man in Korea…’
While thinking like that,
It was the time when I was tipping my glass while relieving the stress that had been building up until now.
“Huh… Adjutant, are you enjoying yourself?”
“Ah… yes, for now, I’m enjoying myself.”
“okay? If that’s the case, I’m glad… huhuhu.”
At some point, Kwon Soon jumps out and starts sticking next to me.
As she pushed herself forward, she secretly grabbed my arm and began rubbing her teeth.
She is already looking very relaxed with a face full of intoxication.
Her face was flushed red, and a smile that could not be hidden was flowing from her mouth.
“I think you drank a little too much, are you okay?”
“Ha ha ha… of course. This much… it’s nothing.”
Even while saying that, Kwon Soon is noticeably unable to control herself.
Looking at this, Glass, who was standing in front of us, said to me with a warm smile on his lips.
“Looks like you overdrinked a little. I think you better have Aide take you to your room.”
“Um… would that be good?”
The atmosphere around them had just begun to ripen, and most of the Hunters were still briskly enjoying this moment.
In this situation, leaving Kwon Soon, who got drunk unexpectedly quickly, is a bit like that.
As Glass said, I slowly got up from my seat holding her in my arms.
“Then I’ll take only Joggs and come back.”
“Yes, please go slowly. In the meantime, I will hang out with the other Hunters.”
Glass talking with a smile like that,
Then, as she watched us, she added a small voice that I couldn’t hear.
“Please take it easy. Maybe we’ll see it tomorrow morning, but… hehehe.”

“Um… ”
Kwon Soon making a dreamy sound while being held in my arms.
At this moment, as if she was half asleep, there was a clear smile on her lips.
Such a smile that makes you feel serenity, joy, and happiness.
Watching this, I suddenly started to remember the moment I had a drink with her for the first time in the past.
‘At that time… no matter how much I drank, I never looked like I was relaxed.’
A moment to have after a successful completion of the first mission and to celebrate it.
Reminiscing about that time,
Soon, a small smile began to form automatically on my lips.
At the time, she was enjoying the atmosphere, but nevertheless, she could feel that something was tied to a corner of her heart.
However, at this moment, Kwon Soon’s face no longer showed the agony or pain he had at the time.
Here, just like everyone else…
And innocently, there was only a cute woman’s figure that was just hanging out.
And what that meant, I personally could understand to some extent.
.
Through a series of events, she was now able to organize her mind to some extent.
‘The return of Talos must have been quite significant… Well, since a friend who died came back alive, it must have had quite an impact.’
Even at this moment, Talos, who is drinking beer with Iro, Roha, and Harim, is talking happily.
When I see her adapting much faster than I thought and building friendships with other people, I could feel the fact that the time I’ve lived so far wasn’t so meaningless.
And this must be the same for Kwon Soon, who was once betrayed by the country and lived a life of practically giving up.
Recognizing that fact, I carefully laid Kwon Soon’s body down on the bed.
“Yes… Adjutant Jinhyun… I like you..”
At the same time, Kwon Soon muttered as if she were talking in her sleep.
Looking at it, I suddenly
Recognizing the fact that the girl lying here is my lover, whom I am officially dating,
Without realizing it, I reached out and gently stroked the hair of the cute woman next to me.
The feeling of feeling surprisingly soft even though the hair texture must have been considerably damaged while dyeing.
Recognizing this, I automatically began to smile slightly at the corners of my lips.
‘It’s the same relationship, but… it’s a very different feeling from Are. If Are is purely like a lover, this side is a bit like a little brother?..’
Although he has a free-spirited personality, he has a surprisingly soft side. Maybe because of that, he often makes me feel like I can’t just leave him alone.
Still, thankfully, recognizing the fact that it helped heal the wounds in her heart, I slowly removed my hands from her hair with a warm smile.
By the way..
“… ?”
“… .”
The next moment, a sudden sensation.
It was… Kwon Soon’s hand that was firmly holding my wrist that had been stroking my hair.
At the same time, Kwon Soon woke up from some moment and was looking at my face.
Feeling a bit embarrassed by her appearance, I spoke to her urgently with a slight blush.
“Ah.. I’m sorry if I woke you up. For me, that.. so.. first of all, it was between lovers.. I stopped knowingly… . Ugh!”
That moment.
Kwon Soon gave her strength and dragged my body onto the bed.
I started to feel a little embarrassed by her actions, which contained power that I couldn’t escape from my position.
Then, with a sticky smile on his lips, Kwon Soon grabbed my face as it lay side by side on the bed and said.
“Where are you going?… In the meantime, I’ve been patient enough, Adjutant.”
