Whether it was because of her worries about Min So-yeon or her bad dream, for some reason, I felt very subtle today.
I was moving around diligently for no reason, and I was walking on the road idly on the back road.
Suddenly someone spoke to me.
“···Ji, Jihwan-ah. Good morning!”
When I glanced back, she was standing there with a familiar face.
A girl who even baked muffins in a friendly match against Jang Su-won saying that she was cheering for me.
“good morning.”
I greeted her appropriately, and glanced at the nameplate hung on her chest.
[ Gong Hye-sun ]
Oh, that was the name.
Gong Hye-sun, who approached her side, naturally started walking in line with each other.
…but did he originally live here?
I think we talked about where we lived, but I can’t remember.
“Hey, did you eat breakfast?”
“I didn’t eat because I was bored. you?”
“Oh, that’s right…, I always take it and eat it…, it’s said that eating rice in the morning is good for the body…”
While we were talking like that, Hye-sun Gong spoke very carefully.
“·····Jihwan-ah, if it is okay with you, I have baked some bread, would you like to eat some…?’
“bread?”
“Yes! Because you said you didn’t eat breakfast…”
I was a little embarrassed by the suggestion that came in out of nowhere.
Bread all of a sudden.
I glanced back and looked at her walking side by side.
If there is something she wants to say, she wiggles her lips and meets her eyes.
For some reason, it felt like a small puppy.
Gong Hye-sun said in a slightly trembling voice, whether my gaze was burdensome, or if she had her eyes closed.
“···Poetry, if you don’t like it, it’s okay…’
Contrary to words, he was pouring out a pitiful tea.
I’m giving out teas that I want them to be accepted, but it wouldn’t be polite to not accept them.
“Then let’s eat a little.”
“Gee, really?”
“The muffins have been delicious before, and I am looking forward to the bread.”
“Come on, wait! I’ll take it out soon!”
A small smile appeared on her lips as if she couldn’t hide her joy.
Looking at her like that, I left the impression that she was a very honest child.
Gong Hye-sun took out a loaf of bread as if waiting, and handed it to me.
The delicious scent of freshly baked bread brushed the tip of his nose.
It was not a small amount, so I was going to eat just one, but suddenly she handed me the whole bread and said:
“All, you can eat it all!”
“Uh… all of this? Is it okay if I don’t share it with other friends?”
“It’s okay, it’s okay…. They usually give a lot.”
Pushed by the strange force, I quietly opened the package and took a bite of a small piece of bread.
It has a luxurious taste that is different from the bread sold at the supermarket. The soft cheese embedded in the inside filled the mouth.
Even if I bought it, the workmanship was so good that I believed it.
I, who finished the bread in an instant, gave a hint to her.
“Do your parents run a bakery?”
“Yes? It’s not that… why···?”
What is this reaction?
Perhaps the story of the family was a miss, and she showed a somewhat gritty look.
“Making bread is not easy. Did you ever learn from someone?”
I know it better than anyone because I remember that I would make bread for Min So-yeon someday.
She smiled shyly and spoke shyly, as if she had understood my intentions at that time.
“Hey, I just practiced. ···alone.”
“Did you read this on your own? That’s great…, if I don’t become a hunter and sell only bread later, I’ll be a hit.”
Gong Hye-sun, perhaps embarrassed by my praise, blushed and bowed her head.
Actually, I said it like a joke, but it’s half sincere.
Baking is one of the more expensive industries than other cuisines.
From materials to tools, the reality is that it is difficult to cover with any student’s pocket money.
But looking at the bread made by Hyeseon Gong, it doesn’t look like she used one or two tools, and the ingredients used don’t seem to use cheap products either.
There’s a good chance that he’s probably from a relaxed family, but it’s better to make a living doing what you love than to be a dangerous hunter.
It comes from an experience of dying while trying to do something.
As I walked while having a conversation with Hye-sun Gong, I suddenly saw the school gates of the Academy, and only then did I realize that I had passed ‘that alley’.
The classroom has just arrived.
Gong Hye-sun sat in a wide seat to sit with close friends, and I took a seat in the corner where I always sat.
Thanks to the bread that Hyesun Gong gave me, I think I will be able to save money on food for dinner tonight.
While I was reading an article about terrorism while touching my cell phone, the bell rang to announce the start of class, and Min So-yeon slowly appeared.
After making eye contact with Min So-yeon, I gently waved my hand to greet her.
“····.”
She naturally ignored my greetings and moved to an empty seat.
I think we’ve gotten closer, but it’s still not enough.
*
After a boring theory class, it’s time to finally return to combat practice.
Before class started, teacher Daesan Lee left us a small notice.
“As you all know, there was a terrorist attack in the association yesterday.”
It was about the terrorism that took place yesterday.
He silenced the murmuring students with a single gesture, and continued speaking.
“Fortunately, we were caught quickly, but the association sent us a notice telling us to be extra careful.”
on the association side?
Although the association and the academy are close, it is rare to issue such a special notice.
It is rare to even inform the students, but seeing that Lee Dae-san, who is not the homeroom teacher, is telling the news, it seems like the news came in a hurry.
Did you find any information about the additional crimes?
“So, if you see a suspicious person in the academy, take it down without mercy!”
Is the conclusion strange?
At that time, Cha-kyung Lim, who was standing next to Dae-san Lee, glared at him and added a word.
“The entrance is restricted from the afternoon, so students, please be extra careful. If you find a really suspicious person, you should leave immediately and report it. You must not deal with it directly.”
Seeing you say this, it seems like something really happened.
After the announcement was over, with Lee Dae-san’s words, the students began to disperse.
As I was going to the corner of the training room to join Min So-yeon, I heard the sound of some students talking.
“Hey, what if we catch it?”
“It’s good if you don’t run around and get lost.”
“At least it’s a B-class, but if there are a lot of heads, we win.”
It’s the same as never before.
Arriving at the end of the training room, I found Min So-yeon, who was stretching alone.
I quietly walked over to her and spoke to her.
“I was warming up, can I help you?”
“···done.”
was rejected outright.
···Why are you doing this?
For some reason, Min So-yeon didn’t seem to be in a good mood.
“····Soyeon-ah, you had a delicious lunch···.”
“···ate.”
“Well, I’m glad you ate well…”
I was just talking about it, but I couldn’t find it.
It must have been fine until we broke up yesterday, but I couldn’t figure out why he was reacting like this.
…Is it that day?
It was difficult to even talk properly, let alone ask the reason for living alone.
That time when I pretended to relax my body by turning my shoulders without meaning for a long time.
“…are you ready to come out?”
Min So-yeon spoke to me.
Talking as if arguing.
Although the tone of the voice is similar to that of his usual tone, he has not been arguing so openly.
Slightly bewildered by the tone I had heard in a long time, I suddenly approached her.
“It starts right away. The rules and conditions are the same.”
“uh? Right away?”
“Scissors, rocks . . .”
As if he didn’t want to listen to me, he immediately reached out his hand and had no choice but to accept the rock, paper, scissors.
“ah.”
The result was my defeat with a furoshiki versus scissors.
This time I’m drunk
Sooing
Contemplating how to adjust the difficulty level, I glanced at the other side.
“····.”
Min So-yeon was using her cell phone to set the timer as if it didn’t matter.
Teasing your fingers nervously seems to be annoyed somewhere.
After getting ready, we stood with our distance apart as before.
Min So-yeon’s attack power has been fully grasped, but information about her mobility is still lacking.
It can’t be finished as soon as it starts, so take it slow…
The moment I was thinking about how to deal with Min So-yeon.
Thirling~
The timer signaled the start.
At the same time, I stepped on the ground with magical powers on my feet.
The body bounced forward by the repulsive force of magical power, and the distance with Min So-yeon was shortened in an instant.
The moment I gathered my magic in my hand and looked for a break.
Suddenly she drew her sword and swung it towards me.
uh? swing it?
“Ahh!”
Embarrassed by the sudden action, I screamed and hurriedly avoided the attack, and Min So-yeon looked at me and started swinging the sword once more.
woohoo-
Even if it was loaded with magic power, the sound of breaking the wind hit her ears.
Kang!!!
I struggled to block the attack due to my disordered posture, and I looked at her with a bewildered look.
Then she exhaled as if exhilarating.
“Why can’t I attack?”
I was speechless.
Isn’t this different from just battling?
I counterattacked to prevent Min So-yeon’s attack.
He gathered the scattered magical powers to form a thin arrow and threw it at her.
easy profit-
The arrow that flew through the wind lost power and disappeared in front of Min So-yeon’s sword.
Without panicking, I once again made several arrows and fired them.
But···.
hoo-
When Min So-yeon swung her sword once, it fell and was destroyed.
No, he…
Min So-yeon looks at her triumphantly as if that’s all.
I was very embarrassed by her expression.
She was planning to check her mobility, but she had no intention of avoiding it from the beginning.
While I paused, Min So-yeon started moving again.
Holding the sword, she quickly approached and swung the sword.
After stepping back for a moment, I raised my magic power, and then reached out to the floor and spit it out.
Freeze!
The magical energy that I radiated stopped moving for a moment, then go! It started making a noise and freezing the ground.
“What, what….”
Min So-yeon steps back to avoid the freezing floor.
I wrapped my hand in my fist with magical energy and then ignited the magic.
phut! With that sound, the burning magic began to burn from his fist.
Min So-yeon’s eyes widened as she slowly stepped back and watched me.
Fire Punch!
The flames spurted out of his hands quickly flew away.
rumbling-
Min So-yeon hurriedly swung her sword and smashed the flames as if in great bewilderment.
The moment when the scattered flames obscured Min So-yeon’s vision.
The ice on the floor, which was expanding its territory, touched Min So-yeon’s toes.
Swipe- choke-
Ice that climbs on your feet in an instant.
Min So-yeon smashed the ice with her sword and stepped back.
Thanks to this, the students who were nearby were startled and started paving the way.
“What, what, why is he here?!”
“Hey, get out of here! I’ll get a knife!”
Oh, I didn’t mean to send it over there.
In fact, Min So-yeon was breaking the ice that had stuck to her feet, not paying attention to the voices of the students.
I guess I’ll have to finish it sooner rather than later.
I immediately rushed to Min So-yeon, gathering my magic in both hands, and at the moment when Min So-yeon, who had already brushed off all the ice, took a stance to counterattack.
“Stop moving!!!”
A loud voice intervened between us.
Suddenly, Daesan Lee appeared and stretched out his hand toward us, and a huge shield suddenly appeared and blocked the road.
Oh, it took…
Our bet ended without a match.
