City of Backstreet Nymphs - Chapter 6



6 – 006 – Nymph Oinoi # 6

006 – Nymph Oinoi # 6

“… ….”

Seo Ye-rim sat cross-legged in her meditation room in her private office and closed her eyes. Among the daily routine of S-class hunter Seo Ye-rim, this meditation time was an indispensable and important process.

I didn’t really like the fact that the specially made black suit stuck to her body, but I liked it anyway.

‘Empty your head and mind and enter the world of nothingness and emptiness.’

Seo Ye-rim emptied her mind like this every time she meditated.

As one of only three S-class hunters in Korea, Seo Ye-rim, who has lived a busier day than anyone else, has the only time to relax.

Of course, meditation to completely empty her head was not an easy task unless she was a high priest who had been practicing for decades, so she kept thinking about her thoughts.

When it comes to idle thoughts, most of them are memories from the past.

Seo Ye-rim recalled her article that she saw in an internet article this morning.

「Title: Global S-class Hunter Ranking Aggregation. How many Korean hunters are there?」

「Content: The strongest on earth that everyone dreams of! An article by a famous netizen ranking S-class hunters who are said to be closest to the strongest has been a hot topic for a few days! Let’s find out from 30th to 1st!」

There are around 30 S-class hunters in the world.

Talk about their rank and strength was good gossip for people. And the ranking of Seo Ye-rim, evaluated by people….

「29Th place: S-class hunter Seo Ye-rim.

Korea’s pride Seo Ye-rim, who uses high-temperature flames of over 1300 degrees like a snake! Her powerful firepower is comparable to that of her top rankers! However, due to her recent poor work performance and her entertainment activities, she is ranked 29th—.”

S-Class Awakeners were beings beyond superhumans. Seo Ye-rim was like that too. No matter where she goes, she can occupy a place like a protagonist.

However, among those S-class Awakeners, Seo Ye-rim’s position is 29th.

Considering that the 30th place ‘Me Tuber Kira’ is a newcomer who has just reached the S-level, Seo Ye-rim was practically at the bottom of the 30th place.

“I… !?”

Seo Ye-rim felt unbearable anger.

The devices attached to Seo Ye-rim’s body felt an unusual change and made a loud beeping sound.

Seo Ye-rim took a deep breath after her ─ because the fire-powered people who burn hotly as her emotions intensify, they always have to focus on maintaining inner peace.

Soon, a prepared voice came from the speaker installed in her meditation room.

「This is the first hour of the Awakened Anger Management Meditation Program. Focus your mind on the sound coming from the speaker and repeat it.”

「First. Anger has no control over me.”

“… Anger has no control over me.”

「Second. Anger has no control over me.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Anger can control me… no… Damn, that’s what you just did!”

Hurray-!

In the end, the unbearable anger burned as a flame around Seo Ye-rim’s body. The fire extinguisher was fired at the sudden rise in temperature in the meditation room and soaked the meditation room like rain.

Chow ah ah-.

In the end, Seo Ye-rim became like a wet mouse.

A high temperature of over 1300 degrees was released, but thanks to the quick operation of the fire extinguishing system, she was able to finish without burning anything.

Also, the newly created special suit did not burn and kept its original shape.

Ugh-.

At that time, the cell phone I had placed outside the meditation room vibrated.

When I went outside and looked at my phone, my secretary and partner, Ahn Young-eun, a Class C Awakener, was calling.

“Youngeun, why?”

– The suit worked, what happened? Did you get angry while meditating again?

“What is it? Is that also passed on to you? This inner suit, was it made to spy on me?”

– No, it’s not like that. People with ignition abilities often lose control among citizens, so I want to mobilize and suppress them as quickly as possible… Uhm. How are you anyway? Is the suit all right? I heard it was designed to withstand up to 1500 degrees?

“… ….”

Seo Ye-rim had many things he wanted to say, but he looked at the suit that was sticking to his body. Indeed, it did not burn even when it received flames.

“Certainly… It’s okay. Sorry for getting angry.”

There have been many cases where those with firepower burned their clothes and exposed their flesh when sparking.

Seo Ye-rim also had such a case, so a fairly large number of paparazzi used to follow her.

But in many ways it was a good thing, because with this suit she would be able to use her powers without worrying about burning her clothes.

Trick-.

Seo Ye-rim hung up on her phone and sat down in front of her computer.

After turning on the internet, she entered her social media site, her awakening, and as always, she searched for her name, ‘Seo Ye-rim’.

Soon, many articles came up.

「Title: Seo Yerim ranked 29th ㅋㅋ

Content: Isn’t Seo Ye-rim supposed to be seen as a celebrity rather than a hunter now? How can he not develop for several years hahahaha”

「Title: Yerim is coming to an end too

Content: Isn’t she just being lazy after becoming S-class? She used to work hard when she was hungry as she went up to class D and class C. She said she wouldn’t even go into a dangerous crack these days?」

└ I would have saved up enough money to play and eat until I died, but I don’t think it’s dangerous even if I’m like him hahahaha

└To be honest, up to grade B was the prime time, and from grade A, it’s obvious that I’m just rolling my head.

“What do you guys know… !”

Stubborn-.

It felt like her hair was rising.

Seo Ye-rim was still working harder than anyone else.

She just didn’t show up.

She wrote a comment to refute and then she deleted it. Seo Ye-rim finally bit her lips as tears seemed to run down her cheeks.

D-ring -.

Then her cell phone rang.

A text message came.

Seo Ye-rim, wondering if she had been asked for an advertisement by an agency, inadvertently looked at her cell phone.

“The office is in a strange place.”

Seo Ye-rim’s office was located in a quiet warehouse complex near the sea.

If she said it was an S-class hunter’s office, she would think of a yolk land with good infrastructure and good accessibility, but it wasn’t.

Perhaps it is because of Seo Ye-rim’s uniqueness as a speaker?

In the past, there were a lot of cases where firefighters were dispatched because firefighters couldn’t control the flames.

That’s why people with speech abilities can’t live in densely populated areas like apartments or have offices. It wasn’t legally forbidden, but it was because the would-be neighbors didn’t like it.

“I never thought I would invite you to the office.”

She knew how to talk at a cafe or something like that. However, Seo Ye-rim invited me to her office to talk about ‘shoes’.

It’s my opinion, but I wondered if this might be due to the uniqueness of the speaker.

Because Seo Ye-rim hates me, talking to me might intensify his emotions or spark a fire.

He must have called me to a safe place because his private office must be well prepared in case of an unexpected fire.

Since I’m in my 10th year as a hunter, I’m pretending.

To be honest, I was a little bit wary of being called to the office.

There is a high probability that 「Seo Ye-rim’s hair」 Has fallen in the office.

“I’m smart as expected-” She said while laughing.

“The sea is pretty… ! There were many sea nymphs living in the sea…. It is said that there were also nymphs with fins… !”

When Oi Noi saw the beach, she was very happy.

She knew that basically she was a water lover, but of course she also liked the sea. Are nymphs with fins like mermaids?

As she thought about it, she arrived at the office before she knew it.

For a building made by remodeling a warehouse, the exterior was neat and spacious. It’s almost like this, isn’t it at the level of a mansion?

She said for a moment, ‘Because you’re a bourgeois,’ and she seemed to be jealous for a moment.

“It is truly a witch’s adult… ! It’s like the castle in Athens where the witch Medea once lived… !”

Oinoi was also very impressed. I said to Oinoi.

“If you speak carelessly, you might get burned, so be careful. He’s the 29th most powerful person in the world. Things like us could be reduced to ashes with a single gesture.”

“The 29th… ! This oi noi, I don’t know what it is, but it’s amazing… !”

Like Oinoi said, getting 29th in the S rank was truly amazing.

Of course, if it’s Seo Ye-rim I know… I wouldn’t think so.

“Oinoi, erase the words of 29th place from your head.”

Finally arrived at the entrance.

When I opened the automatic door and entered, I saw a neat interior.

As I was standing in the lobby, I heard the sound of shoes coming from the stairs on the second floor. When I turned my head, Seo Ye-rim, wearing a coat, was coming down.

When I felt my stomach tighten, Seo Ye-rim looked me up and down and asked.

“What about flowers?”

Wen flowers.

Since I came as a guest, does that mean I should have bought some flowers or fruit?

When I felt embarrassed, Oinoi, who was looking around the lobby on the first floor, raised his hand.

“Ah… ! You are the owner of this huge castle… !”

“… What is he What? Cousin?”

“This is a bit long to explain. This is Oino.”

“It is an oinoi… !”

Barr, Barr-.

Oinoi trembled.

I wondered if he might feel fear in front of Seo Ye-rim, who is picky and fussy, but it wasn’t.

Oinoi exclaimed in admiration.

She said, “I thought she was a mean witch, but she is like a princess, she is pretty…” ! This oi noi, such a pretty person, is that she is the first other than Princess Psyche I have seen before… !”

Even in the eyes of the nymph Oinoi, Seo Ye-rim’s appearance was pretty.

It was natural.

In an age when Alfheim’s elves appeared on TV and Me Tube, you wouldn’t even be able to take a picture of a commercial.

Anyway.

The important thing is not this.

“I have something to tell you about shoes.”

“… ….”

Seo Ye-rim alternately looked at me and Oinoi expressionlessly.

Soon he said, “Come up,” She said and she went upstairs.

I also followed him and looked at the floor.

I was wondering if there was any hair that fell off.

But no.

The second floor, thinking that it might be in the office on the second floor, was an open structure with sofas and huge glass windows.

The floor was made of shiny ivory material, but it was clean without a speck of dust. Almost to a morbid level.

It was the moment when the choice to pick up a hair that had fallen on the floor was blurred. Now that this has happened, would it be right to honestly say, “Give me one strand of hair”?

… No, what if I get sued for s*xual harassment?

“What are you talking about?”

Seo Ye-rim sat down on the sofa and asked calmly.

I wondered if it would be better to sit on the sofa, then I just stood up, opened the bag on my back, took out my shoes from inside, and showed them.

Red shoes.

The shoes were polished clean.

“I cleaned this once. It’s almost restored to its original state. How is it?”

There was an option to polish the shoes and resell them with Seo Yerim’s premium. Maybe I could get more than the cost of 10 million won.

But that’s when I got caught saying “You, why are you selling my shoes on your own?”

That’s why I just said, “I wiped it clean, so replace it with something that wasn’t there.”

“You wiped the queen bee sap? Do you really have to scrub it for a few days to clean it?”

Seo Ye-rim seemed very surprised.

Do you think I invested a few days of time and passion to clean the essence? The reality sucked honey very much.

Of course, Oinoi looked at the sea through the large glass window and said, “It is a wonderful scenery… !” She said in admiration, so if only I kept my mouth shut, no one would know the truth.

I decided to push ahead with what I polished hard.

“I cleaned it really hard.”

Seo Ye-rim looked at her shoes.

He even put her nose to the place where the ooze had been deposited and sniffed it.

“… The smell of flowers… Heh, what good. Cleaned better than I thought. These were my favorite shoes, and I don’t need to buy new ones. Thank god.”

It was Seo Ye-rim who smiled slightly as if he was really fortunate.

Even though she knew that this guy was a mean woman who might have mocked others behind her back and even cursed her, I had her eyes taken away by that smile.

Wouldn’t it be best to be pretty and handsome after sleeping as an S-class hunter?

The world is so unfair.

“So, this is all I have to say?”

Seo Ye-rim asked.

His expression was quite calm.

But if she said “I’m done talking” Here, she would be kicked out of the office.

Wouldn’t it be nice to somehow make an excuse?

I wish I had an excuse to get the hair!

Flash -.

At that time, it felt as if something had passed through my head.

“Seo Ye-rim, you ranked 29th. Aren’t you a bit nervous because your skills aren’t improving?”

“… ….”

It was the moment when the calm eyes really wrinkled like a witch.

The die has already been cast….

I decided to go all out!

“This time I figured out how to improve my skills as an Awakener. What is it. Thanks to Oinoi here! Oinoi is a nymph from a strange world, so she knows how to improve her stagnant skills.”
