Chapter 205
Episode 205
A terrace with soft yellow lighting.
The endless natural sea and the night view of the city where artificial lights drive out the night… It’s
like cutting and pasting the world she likes piece by piece. It was one.
“…This is a place I really wanted to show you. I can’t even see it because of my family.”
It was not just the scenery of the terrace. Kim Eun-ah wanted to go around the nearby city with Shin Yoo-seong. Except for my family and brother, Shin Yoo-seong was the first person I could really trust.
So I was sure that doing new things together would be fun differently than before.
“… ruined everything. I asked her so much and she said something like that…”
Eunah Kim muttered with a pouting face as she hugged her knees on the orange chair.
“Mom said the other day as if everything was over…”
Once.
“If you tell me in advance, you won’t bring it. I’m cheating…”
Twice shortly after.
“…Does it make you angry just thinking about it? why would i do it …are they trying to decide?
Three times with an angry face.
Even though Kim Eun-ah, who had completely lost her temper, continued to complain, Shin Yoo-seong looked at the night scene without a word.
‘…I see.’
Yooseong Shin remembered Kim Eun-ah’s father, who spoke calmly but firmly.
[I want you to become a party member in return for saving Junhyeok. Of course, it is natural for Eun-ah to reciprocate. Because divinity never forgets grace. But…]
Kim Seong-han, Vice Chairman of Shinsung Group.
Kim Eun-ah’s father was an expressionless person who could not understand his mind just by his appearance.
However, Shin Yoo-seong could see how much Kim Seong-han cares for Kim Eun-ah even though he is such a person.
It’s not just Kim Seong-han.
Kim Jun-hyeok, who always supported Kim Eun-ah, did not speak on the side of his family. It must be because he knew the world of hunters better than anyone else.
The gap in talent that couldn’t be caught up without using stimulants. Battles for life.
To be sure, that was absolutely not what Shinsung Group wanted from Kim Eun-ah.
The reason they sent Kim Eun-ah to Gaon was because they wanted to graduate from the academy with good grades and get a badge from a prestigious family.
Not everyone who has the characteristics to become a Hunter is engaged in dangerous work.
Yeah, if you think about it, they were all the same.
[Sorry for suddenly saying this to Shin Yoo-seong. In the first place, we sent Eun-ah to Gaon Academy. It’s not to become a hunter in a really dangerous place.]
The reason Kim Yun-ha, the mother, ignored Kim Eun-ah, who was angry, and spoke in a businesslike voice.
[I’m asking on behalf of the family. I will reward you for saving Junhyeok. Leave Eun-ah out of the party now.]
The reason why Kim Seok-han, the apex of the business world, asked himself, who was only a mere student, to ask.
“I can’t help it. It’s all because Eun-ah… he said these words for you.”
In the end, let Shin Yuseong spit out his thoughts with a firmer face than usual. Kim Eun-ah hid her face tightly in her lap.
“…then. Then what about you?”
Eunah Kim’s trembling voice made it hard to guess whether she was angry or sad. The only thing Shin Yoo-seong can know now is that Kim Eun-ah is enduring something.
Contrary to my thoughts, however, Kim Eun-ah’s voice, which opened next time, was unexpectedly calm.
“…you are like my mother said. Even if you quit the party. Even if we really only remain friends with you…”
Kim Eun-ah looked up and looked at Shin Yoo-seong. Her eyes were red, but she didn’t cry. What I can feel in Kim Eun-ah’s eyes is a huge sense of disappointment and a little resentment.
“…Are you really okay?”
Kim Eun-ah tried to ask calmly, but Shin Yoo-seong could not answer calmly.
It was unexpected that Kim Eun-ah quit the party.
During the 17 years of his life.
The time after entering Gaon was short but special. I’ve made more friends and been through more than in all other years combined.
Kim Eun-ah was especially special. He
was a party member who experienced both joy and crisis with him, and
…
Shin Yoo-seong was about to say something, but Kim Eun-ah cut off her words with a short word.
“I am. It will be very sad.”
Kim Eun-ah was the one who was sadder than anyone else when her older brother, Kim Jun-hyeok, fell into a coma. Kim Eun-ah was not ignorant of how much her family cared for her.
but.
“If I break up with you. When I leave the party… Of course… Well, I’ll see you sometimes. But…”
Puff-
Kim Eun-ah buried her head in her lap again. What leaked out from the gap where you couldn’t even see his expression was a small voice muttering without confidence.
“…I think I’m going to be very sad.”
The night wind was cold.
Let’s look at Kim Eun-ah, still squatting on the chair and letting go of her emotions. Shin Yoo-seong felt that the scenery of this place, which had only felt beautiful, was quite different. How long did Kim Eun-ah gaze at this scenery in this castle-like mansion, far from the people of the city?
It’s definitely an experience you’ve had.
Standing in the mountains far away from the city, looking up at the starry night sky. But even so, Shin Yuseong now’s feelings at that time did not come to mind easily.
but.
‘…I can tell.’
Looking at the lights of the city that were going out one by one, Shin Yuseong thought. In that loneliness, this scenery would not have been so beautiful.
It was a short time, but now she and Kim Eun-ah have become very close.
To think I had to distance myself from someone like that. Undoubtedly, Kim Eun-ah would be very sad like she said, even if she pretended to be strong in front of her.
and.
One day when I am left alone, I will look at this beautiful scenery and sob like an idiot.
“…Nah.”
Just thinking about Kim Eun-ah like that made Shin Yoo-seong feel cold somewhere. It certainly wasn’t because of the cold wind.
Took.
Kim Eun-ah sat on the orange chair and wiggled her index finger, then laughed at the worried voice of Shin Yoo-seong.
“Hey, I’m not stupid either.”
Kim Eun-ah said calmly, as if not to be mistaken.
“…Family for me. I know something like this.”
Pretending to be strong so as not to worry others was Kim Eun-ah’s long-standing temperament,
but not today.
“To be at the same party as you. I know it’s dangerous.”
Today’s Kim Eun-ah was just speaking honestly to Shin Yoo-seong.
“…I know that you and I are different. you have a dream …right?”
Thoughts on Shinyuseong.
“And… if something really dangerous happened, as my family was worried about. You will definitely regret it.”
think about yourself.
Kim Eun-ah laughed single-singly at Shin Yoo-seong, probably thinking that the story had become too serious.
“Honestly, I don’t even want to get hurt. I hate being sick and dirty. Even on rainy days, I don’t like it because it’s uncomfortable…”
Even with the same hunter, Shin Yoo-seong respects a Kwon-king hunter and Kim Eun-ah pursued the exact opposite path.
“…Well, Mom knows. Maybe I’m not a good fit for our party. But that you… Kkeuhm!”
Kim Eun-ah tried to say something, but swallowed it again. I coughed, as if I was embarrassed by such a serious story.
But if not today, could I tell this story to Shin Yoo-seong?
Can you tell me what you felt and what you are grateful for?
When the thought reached that point, Kim Eun-ah suppressed the rising embarrassment and spoke honestly.
“…you are with you guys. What do you do best?”
Through her party life, Eun-ah Kim learned that ‘who’ she was with was more important than ‘what’ she was doing
.
It was so much fun to overcome new dangers and share the joy of victory with party members.
“How is Yoosung?”
Kim Eun-ah asked the same question quite differently. Shin Yoo-seong nodded at the expression of Kim Eun-ah, who had confessed everything and now felt relaxed.
“huh. If you leave…”
And Shin Yoo-seong’s expression is Kim Eun-ah’s smile.
“Eun-ah, as you said, obviously… I will be very sad. No matter which party member comes in, no one will be able to take your place.”
Shin Yoo-seong, who was more confident than ever, answered Kim Eun-ah, looking at the night view naturally and avoiding her gaze.
“Well that’s… that’s right!”
Someone put a hand on the back of Kim Eun-ah’s hand, who was shouting out in embarrassment. Unlike the cold night air, the warmth felt in warm hands.
“…uh?”
Embarrassed, Kim Eun-ah looked at Shin Yoo-seong, but Shin Yoo-seong was smiling kindly.
“How come you seem to be secretly good at this?”
Even as Kim Eun-ah said that, she leaned on Shin Yoo-seong. The two looked at the same place as if they had made a promise. The scenery of the stars beautifully embroidered in the black night sky was both cold and warm.
