Episode 176 – Scarlett’s misunderstanding
Scarlett noticed that there was something strange going on between Shiu and Dina these days.
Probably a love-loving atmosphere.
‘As expected, I’m quick-witted!’
Considering that the other classmates had already noticed it to some extent, her attention was quite dull and slow.
Anyway, she thought so.
Wouldn’t you like to see a friend’s dating situation?
‘Yes. It’s natural to be curious. It can’t be helped.’
A close friend who used to live without a face in front of her, becomes infinitely more caring in front of her lover, or becomes like an idiot.
If you witness something like that, you can make fun of it for a year.
That’s why Scarlett is stalking Siwoo Han… No, she decided to tail.
‘Because this is legal!’
It was never legal, but that’s what she thought.
And she witnessed it.
Siwoo and Dina went somewhere and met a girl who looked suspiciously like Dina.
“You already have a daughter?!”
Like that, the misunderstanding only grows bigger and bigger.
*
Scarlett noticed that there was a strange current flowing between Dina and Siu while they were sparring shortly after the incident in Pennheim.
When the two of them are sparring, they look at each other and talk about things, and when other kids are sparring, the two of them stick together from behind and talk.
But if you don’t notice, it’s an asshole.
And Scarlett, who was the last to notice, said that she didn’t even know that she was an asshole, and that she was quick to notice, and she was delighted.
Today is the day I experienced the hellish virtual labyrinth training.
Several days had passed inside, but only a few hours had passed in reality.
But that doesn’t mean that her hardships will disappear, so Scarlett was already exhausted.
Moreover, all of her friends who went into it with her had higher specs than her, so if you ask her who is the most exhausted person, it would be Scarlett.
‘I can’t believe I have to do this regularly….’
Thanks to this, my growth has certainly accelerated, but this… Isn’t that too hard?
She suddenly couldn’t understand why she was training in a labyrinth.
She only came here after being picked up by Han Si-woo who appeared out of nowhere.
Scarlett, who was so exhausted, stretched herself out as soon as she came out of the mage tower and declared that she would go back first.
“Okay… I want to go back and rest today….”
Since it was a virtual training where only the mind was projected into virtual reality, the fatigue of the body was not severe.
Her mind was screaming for her to lie down on her bed and put her to sleep.
To go back like that, I stride forward first….
Stia and Kania followed after him, but Dina and Han Siu showed no signs of doing so.
“… !”
Scarlett, who noticed something about her with an uncharacteristically quick glance, smiled sinisterly.
“… Aha.”
This was certain.
It seemed that the two of them, as exhausted as they were, were planning to go back and enjoy the date without a break.
‘It’s difficult, but….’
Isn’t it about to die right away anyway?
Scarlett, who is serious about teasing her friends, couldn’t miss this opportunity because of her mental exhaustion.
‘I’ve been waiting for an opportunity like this!’
From the day I noticed it, I’ve been watching for opportunities to tail when the two of us are alone.
So, it means that I was only looking for an opportunity for about three days.
‘I have to go now!’
Like that, Scarlett showed her stealth skills to the point that she had never tried so hard in her life, and she started following the two of them.
Actually, it was a poor skill, but the two of them were also exhausted and cared more about each other, so it was hard to notice.
Watching the two of them with such a beating heart, the two of them are slowly heading somewhere.
‘Where am I going? Are you going to the movies? Or a cafe? Or mo… !’
At that moment, a huge explosion broke out somewhere, as if to cut off Scarlett’s impure imagination.
Kwaaang——!
The screams of startled people.
Thousands of people running away.
She already had skills equal to or higher than that of a knight, but Scarlett, who was still a self-styled aspiring knight, instinctively tried to run there.
But what caught Scarlett like that, she was none other than the two people she was trying to follow.
‘… It would be much safer to go with those two.’
With that thought in mind, Scarlett grabbed her body as she was about to jump out first and slowly started following the two of them.
And at the end, what Scarlett faced was the truth (not) that she thought she shouldn’t know.
‘There is no doubt.’
Black hair resembling Han Si-woo.
Body like a little girl.
Purple eyes like Dina’s.
And, her suspiciously similar appearance to Dina.
‘It must be… No, really?’
No matter how hard I tried to deny it, the truth did not change.
The two of them gave birth to a child without their knowledge!
‘No way!!! No, when?’
Scarlett was shocked as if she had been hit in the back of the head with her hammer.
No, she thought it would be more correct to assume that if the child was that big, she had it before entering the academy.
‘Then… ! Did the two actually have a relationship before coming to the academy… !’
That’s why I gave birth to a child before then!
After entering the academy, the relationship between the two seemed awkward and awkward.
Maybe it was to hide the fact that the two of them had a child!
They disguised themselves as if they were seeing each other for the first time.
Then everything fits.
When Siwoo was kidnapped and disappeared into a fake labyrinth, Dina turned into a distraught person and set out to find him.
Of course, it makes sense to do that for a friend.
If Scarlett herself had the same strength and ability as Dina, she would certainly have done the same.
But… As far as Scarlett knows, Dina and Shiu weren’t that close at the time.
If she’s Dina’s style, who doesn’t have much interest in others, even if she cared, she wouldn’t have gone that far.
At least she thought she was smart, and Scarlett believed she did.
But what if all of this was camouflage?
What if Siwoo was actually Dina’s husband and went missing?
‘Oh my God!’
How did the puzzle fit so tightly!
Scarlett suddenly realized that she felt like a detective in a mystery novel.
‘Isn’t it true that I have talent on this side?’
Should I just change to a hero detective instead of a knight… !
It took only about 2 seconds for Scarlett’s accident to reach this point.
Yes, Siwoo and Dina’s child must have great talent.
Siwoo and Dina, that is to say, her daughter, who knew that her mother and father were around, must have caused an explosion on purpose to summon them!
Looking at it now, there are broken objects, but no one seems to have been injured, adding credibility to that guess.
‘Look how stupid I am!’
Now that Siu and Dina have entered the academy, it must be that the daughter hasn’t seen her mom and dad for a long time!
How I missed you!
As Scarlett shed tears as she bit into her handkerchief, the three of them headed somewhere.
Naturally, Scarlett, who justified herself that this tailing was legal, followed the three of them with excitement as if she were watching a drama.
And where she ended up….
‘… A soup restaurant?’
Looking through the window of the store, Siwoo and Dina didn’t put their mouths to the soup, while the girl who seemed to be their daughter was eating soup.
‘I wonder if the dream of her daughter, who hasn’t met her parents for a long time, is just to have her simple family eat soup together… !’
I can’t hold back my tears!

‘I’m sure Siwoo and Dina had circumstances too, right?’
Scarlett did not want to imagine that her friends, Siu and Dina, were such bad parents.
Unfortunately, the two people who gave birth to a child at a very young age did not have enough money to raise a child, so the environment was not prepared.
Because of unavoidable circumstances, they entrusted their daughter to someone, and they entered the academy to become heroes and proud parents… !
‘So sad… !’
And as if adding credence to her guess, Siwoo and Dina seemed to care very much about their daughter.
He even bought her daughter a necklace that looked incredibly expensive.
It was a figure that could not be seen without sparing her daughter.
I can’t say that the price of the item is exactly the same as the heart that cherishes it, but….
‘If I had to feel so sorry for the daughter she hadn’t seen for a long time… !’
Ah.
What should I do!
Scarlett made up her mind.
No matter where I go, I will never mention the relationship between the two.
I couldn’t make the two people who were already having a hard time carry a bigger burden.
‘I will protect you… !’
Like that.
The misunderstanding grew out of control.
