60 – Summer vacation (8)
The dishes came out soon.
It wasn’t served all at once, and seeing as it came out of the soup, it was probably a course meal.
“By the way, Student Heewon, when can we meet with your parents?”
“Mom and Dad aren’t home. Mom went on a business trip abroad and won’t be back this month, and Dad said he already had an interview with the professor.”
“I do. Yes… then I get it. By the way… sudden lodging. It would have been less embarrassing if you had told me in advance.”
“Heewon must have wanted to be with the professor. Heehee.”
Then, Yoo Hee-won, who was eating soup, looked at Han Min-ha with bloody eyes.
“Sorry… Heewon.”
“Stop talking nonsense and eat. Then eat in moderation. We’re going swimming in the afternoon.”
“Swimming…?”
“I can’t swim when I’m full. But do you know how to swim?”
Han Min-ha opened her eyes wide and looked at Yoo Hee-won and shook her head.
“I can’t. And I don’t even have a swimsuit.”
“It’s summer and you don’t have a bathing suit? I don’t understand, really.”
“No… It’s not that I don’t have it, it’s at home, but I didn’t know I was going to go swimming and I didn’t bring it.”
“I can’t help it. I’ll lend you a swimsuit, so anyway, eat in moderation. Professor, you know how to swim, right?”
Of course I know how to do it.
It’s because you’re in the basic training course you get when you go to Secretto.
Put them on a rubber raft, throw them into the middle of the sea, and have them swim back on their own.
But I have no thoughts of wanting to swim with the kids.
“I don’t know how to do it.”
“Really? It’s strange… Are you a former hero?”
“Even if you fall into it, it’s enough to fly up, so I didn’t feel the need to learn anything.”
“It’s really strange… how can a hero not swim…”
Yoo Hee-won mumbled something and tilted her head.
The food kept coming out biting its tail.
Yoo Hee-won proudly says that the chef at her ‘home’ graduated from a cooking school that is difficult to name anywhere in Europe.
He was the chef of a luxury hotel, and he brought it.
So, the food was really good.
Han Min-ha frantically ate the food that came out, forgetting Yu Hee-won’s warning to eat in moderation.
“So delicious!”
“Is this your first time eating something like this?”
“Yeah. It’s the same as the first time you’ve tried bulmakchang. My God. It’s really delicious.”
“How is the professor?”
When Yu Hee-won looked at my expression and asked, I also nodded.
“It’s delicious. I think it’s good that you came.”
“Okay. I liked it.”
Yoo Hee-won, who saw me and Han Min-ha eating deliciously, smiled with satisfaction.
You know how to make that kind of expression when you see other people eating. It’s surprising.
Yoo Hee-won, who took a sip of water, brought up a different topic this time.
“By the way, isn’t there practice next semester?”
“there is.”
“Do the same class go to the same place?”
“No. The office that took the interpersonal combat capability evaluation last semester and the management office will make a separate nomination. You can choose from there and go together, or you can go separately.”
Han Min-ha, who had been eavesdropping with his mouth shut, asked with a very worried expression.
“By any chance… what if I don’t get nominated…? Can’t practice…?”
“No. In that case, we will send you to a place affiliated with the academy. But don’t worry about that. The most talked about student in this evaluation is Minha.”
“Heeik?! Me…?! But I kept getting beaten up in the beginning and passed out at the end…”
“That’s why it’s like that. A hero is a celebrity. It’s more important to gain popularity from the public than to fight silently. In that respect, student Minha attracted a lot of attention in this evaluation.”
“Sigh…”
Han Min-ha let out a deep sigh as if it was burdensome.
“Is that enough… I was scared so I didn’t even look it up on the internet… Ah… I hate it so much…”
You’re similar to me in that you don’t like attention.
“What are you talking about, you fat pig? It’s a truck of kids who don’t have to struggle because they want attention, but are you talking about your stomach?”
Han Min-ha shook his head at Yoo Hee-won’s words.
“But if you get attention like this, from then on, even the slightest mistake will turn out to be a big deal.”
“You don’t have to make mistakes, are you stupid? And why are you crying already when you haven’t started anything?”
However, Han Min-ha still looked at me with concern and asked.
“What if I go to the Scary Hero’s office?”
“Are you a scary hero?”
“For example, people like Goshawk-sama… I think it would be really difficult to be under someone like that…”
“You can just say you won’t go. You’re not being dragged away.”
Yoo Hee-won, looking at Han Min-ha like an idiot, asked.
“Please suggest me where to go. I’m sure there are many places that nominate me.”
“Well, if you want to see the field in action from a broader perspective, you’d better go into the Administration Office. You’ll probably learn a lot more from the institutional and legal aspects than from a private office.”
“What if I go to a private office?”
“For a private office, I like heroes who do not cause moral problems outside of heroic activities. A real hero is someone who has strong power but does not use it recklessly. There aren’t that many heroes like that.”
“for example?”
“There must be heroes like Regal Mite.”
“Hmm. Regal Mite…”
Yu Hee-Won didn’t say anything more and pondered over my words.
Han Min-ha, who noticed Yu Hee-won and me, continued to enjoy the meal again.
* * * * *
After the meal, Yoo Hee-won dragged Han Min-ha and disappeared into her room.
I changed into comfortable clothes in the guest room and headed straight to the pool.
I don’t intend to splash around with the kids, but I don’t think it’s a bit of a stretch to come all the way here and save face.
So I plan to lie down on the sunbed and enjoy the sun while drinking a cool drink.
Since I’ve been somber all winter, my face has become pale enough to look crumbly, so I feel like I need to get some sunlight.
Naturally, the swimming pool was outside right behind the house.
It’s nonsense that such a rich man’s house doesn’t even have a swimming pool.
A few staff members came out to the pool and set up a simple setting for us to use.
I grabbed a sunbed under the parasol in the corner and lay down comfortably.
Then one of the staff came over and offered me a drink.
It was a yellow drink in a cool-looking glass, but when I tasted it, it was a cocktail.
Is it Malibu Orange? anyway it’s delicious
“Ah, Heewon…! Wait a minute…!”
“Come out quickly!”
Just then, a loud noise came from the other side of the building.
When I turned around, I saw Yoo Hee-won and Han Min-ha, wrapped in a large towel over their shoulders, coming out into the pool.
For some reason, Han Min-ha tried not to come, and Yoo Hee-won mercilessly pulled Han Min-ha by the wrist.
“I’ll just rest inside… Can’t you swim alone…?”
“What are you talking about! Hurry up! The professor is here too!”
“Hee! That’s why I hate it even more…!”
However, Han Min-ha did not have the ability to withstand Yoo Hee-won’s brute force.
Han Min-ha, who had been dragged helplessly, looked at me and blushed and tightened the towel even more.
“Hello, Professor… Could you please talk to Heewon? I don’t want to go swimming right now…”
However, Yoo Hee-won mercilessly threw Han Min-ha into the swimming pool.
Han Min-ha flew away with a swish and fell into the middle of the swimming pool, creating a splash of water.
“Pueek?! Heewon!”
“I’ll go in quietly, talk a lot.”
Yoo Hee-won, who followed him into the water, smiled evilly.
Han Min-ha looked at the towel that had fallen off her body and was floating around in despair.
Looking at Han Min-ha like that, I could understand the reason why he tried to refuse swimming.
Right now, Han Min-ha was wearing a bikini that Yu Hee-won lent her, but the chest area didn’t fit, so the weight was overflowing from the side.
“Oh my God? Miss Minha has a really nice body?”
The office manager approached me before I knew it and looked at the children in the pool with happy eyes.
“Heewon seems to be in a really good mood. I haven’t played in the pool since I was a kid.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. This time my friends suddenly asked me to prepare the swimming pool, so I quickly got water and cleaned it?”
Was it something like that…
I thought while watching Yoo Hee-won bullying Han Min-ha by riding on his back.
Good thing I didn’t refuse the invitation.
If I had prepared this far and had not come, I would have been very heartbroken.
“Professor, please come in too! Don’t lie there wet!”
Heewon Yoo shouted and I raised my hand.
“I can’t swim. I’ll lie down and rest.”
Then, Yu Hee-won activated her aura and shot a considerable amount of water at me, and I lightly spread a semi-circular shield.
Just as the water shot into the cup spurts out again, Yoo Hee-won’s water cannon attack inversely poured over Yu Hee-won and Han Min-ha’s heads.
“Oh, not funny!”
Yu Hee-Won squealed and Han Min-Ha grabbed the chest strap that was about to come undone and blushed as if it would burst.
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh-!!
Suddenly, everyone raised their heads at the sudden sound.
High up in the sky, I could see three heroes flying away at high speed, dragging their auras by their tails.
“Huh? A hero. Where are you going?”
The office manager put a hand on his forehead to block the sunlight and looked up at the heroes.
Three heroes at once…?
It’s also in formation like a fighter jet…?
Then the two heroes flying from the other side turned to the direction the three heroes had just flown.
Five heroes flying in one direction?
What the hell is going on?
