98 – Chapter 98 Rewards are always new. Exciting. The rewards are the best. (1)

Cheonggong Island.

As its name suggests, it is an island that floats in the sky, and it is the name of Arcadia’s mobile fortress and dwelling place created by the all-powerful alchemist Calia with her own abilities.

There was a woman on the Sky Island who was suffering from headaches.

Calia.

The current captain of Arcadia, the owner of Sky Island, an S-rank villain, and an all-round alchemist.

“…So you just came?”

“Um, yes.”

She clutched her throbbing head as she listened to the bland failures of her men.

…Are there any painkillers left? Oh, sedatives might be better.

While thinking about it blankly, she immediately shook her head.

It was said that the villains there were all wiped out anyway, so there was no problem.

The colleague, who had already cried that he was about to die from overwork, would have to use some strength again to manipulate the information, but fortunately it won’t take long since they betrayed him.

It took a little while to touch her first, but she also had an excuse that she was insulted. The dead guys won’t be able to refute it, so you can manipulate it moderately.

“Oh, that’s right. There he was. Son of Yoosung Group.”

“Yes? Ah, Kang So-hyun.”

Of course, they already knew his name, as they had finished investigating quite a few famous families through information research.

“Was that a name? Anyway, he wasn’t bad.”

“…Yes?”

Taeho wasn’t the type to talk empty words either in a good or bad way.

In any sense, the reason he said he was okay was because he acknowledged the other person, and although he only saw him once that day, he was a boy who could never be seen as Taeho’s taste.

Of course, the appearance he showed wearing the mask was a bit different, but for personal reasons, he did not tell his colleagues about his identity.

“Guy, if your body is a little stronger, I think we can fight again. I should bring you something healthy next time.”

I wonder how much has changed in such a short period of time that Taeho is so friendly.

What would he look like if he knew the true identity of the ghost?

“A person who goes beyond his limits and awakens for the sake of his comrades is not bad. If he hadn’t just cut in at the end, he would have seen the fight. Ah, I don’t like it when you end up fighting meanly.”

“…It’s not a test, it’s a game?”

“I don’t have a liver big enough to test anyone capable of taking my life. The next time I see it, I think it would be perfect if it had grown more.”

This was a bigger shock than when he said he had returned without being able to investigate the dungeon.

Until now, the opponents that Dougi Seo Tae-ho recognized as his opponents, regardless of heroes or villains, were all giants of A grade or higher.

“Ah, how can I not get into the academy? It’s not like you can fight them every day.”

“Okay. I don’t know if it’s Chohong or Abel, but Taeho you’re too big…”

“Oh, I know. I just complained. Or would you like something like infiltrating the academy as a request?”

“hahahaha, there won’t be any requests until the rumors of this failure are quieted down. What.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

“Come to think of it, then I guess you couldn’t buy ice cream?”

“Who am I? Don’t worry, I bought it for sure.”

“Yes? It must have been difficult, but did you buy it?”

There aren’t many places that sell rum raisin, right?

I was worried before thinking that I was proud, and it seemed like a natural answer.

“I heard that he bought it while running away, so he seemed impressed?”

[…Hey!!!!!!!!!!]

Have you ever been so moved that you screamed so much that the island was washed away?

“…What flavor did you buy?”

“Chocolate and vanilla.”

…You’d better take painkillers as well.

“What about the rum raisin! You bastard…!!!!”

The roar of Chohongi who kicked in the door shook the building.

“It didn’t even taste good.”

“I like it! Not you, but me…!!!!!”

Today too, Cheon Gong Island is peaceful.

After the case was over, we stopped by the orphanage with the professor for a while.

Ah, by the way, it’s soundproofed with expensive equipment, so the babies don’t know what happened today.

Wouldn’t you think it was just a boring day because the director told you not to go out?

When you’re young, things like this easily become traumatic.

I told the director that there would be an uproar because I had to ask him not to let the kids come out. Well, it can be said that this alone has improved hundreds of times compared to the original.

At least, the little witch and the kids won’t have a big trauma in their hearts.

Yes. I was a man who could care.

“Thank you. Oh, that’s a little awkward. I’m serious, but I don’t know what to say.”

A man who can be considerate is to the extent that a professor who is busy teasing me every day would greet me honestly!

Seeing the kids screaming without knowing what had happened, I thought it was a good thing to deal with it unknowingly.

Kids should grow up bright.

Anyway, since it ended successfully, it was time to go get a sweet reward.

“Then let’s go.”

“Huh? Sohyeon, are you leaving already?”

“Already? The kids like it, so why don’t we wait a little longer?”

Yes, no. Have to go now If you come out to investigate, you might not be able to suck honey.

“Oh, actually, I’m really tired~ I’ll take the other kids and see them again soon. Hanhee, you won’t be tired today either.”

Hani seemed to be thinking about something, but soon nodded and expressed her affirmation.

“hahahaha, that would be nice. Anyway, thank you very much. I will help both of you to the best of my ability, so don’t hesitate to call me if you need help.”

“Yes, I will.”

It will be different depending on the professor’s attitude on the promised night.

You are strong.

She was in a lot of trouble right now.

It is not a physical problem.

Aside from fighting the monster in the first place, there were no wounds, and even those were completely healed thanks to Kang So-hyun’s first aid.

The part of her that was bothering her now was in a completely different, psychological problem.

No, actually, it may be a physical problem in a way, but it hasn’t been confirmed yet.

“Haa…”

“Huh? Why are you sighing like that?”

“Nothing.”

Now he’s back to normal, but just looking at him like this keeps reminding me of his completely different appearance.

The image of him rushing at the monster while doing his best to protect himself, and the image of him gently caressing his cheek as if he were touching a fragile object that would crush him if he touched it.

Her heart raced and her face turned red when she remembered the touch.

He eventually caught fire in his heart, which he tried to force, and fell for him more than he could have imagined.

No, it’s actually not as bad as I thought.

It seems that he has almost overcome the downside of being rather tired when using his talent, and looking at his appearance in battle, he doesn’t seem to have much talent with the sword.

Now then, what is the problem?

…It’s about whether he knows he’s a man or if he notices that he’s a woman.

Of course, or maybe he was simply mistaken, but what kind of man would say such a thing while giving such a deep look to a simple friend of the same sex, touching his cheek?

-Stay by my side.

I thought I was going crazy.

Either way was a problem.

If you knew it was a woman, when would it be? How did you think? You didn’t tell anyone else, did you?

Once I started to doubt it, I remembered that I was overly cautious from the first meeting, and I became more suspicious.

No, it would be better if I was caught being a woman. Because things are different than before.

If he accepts after explaining and confessing his position, the two of you should go to greet your father.

Of course, there is a possibility that this side will be rejected as well, but this is not a fundamental problem, so can’t we try something else?

But what if the premise is very wrong?

So I hate to think about it, but what if he doesn’t just see himself as a gay friend, but as a special same-sex friend…?

I’ve been thinking about it for a while.

He revealed that he was a woman, and the moment he confessed, his eyes grew cold and disgust filled his eyes.

‘I like men? Were you a woman?’

“…Crazy.”

“…What?”

It wasn’t a problem other than the difference.

It hurts my pride. I’m not kidding, I might go crazy.

It is first love. Why did you get dumped by your first love partner because he is gay…?

If I told the kids, it was clear that Chun Yu-hak, who was always in good shape, would laugh and laugh while rolling around on the spot.

“…Have you been weird since before? Are you listening to what I have to say?”

“Ah, yes. Of course.”

I knew he was saying something earlier, but to be honest, I didn’t hear a thing.

No, I know that all these imaginations are leaps and bounds.

Thinking about it now, it was a pretty crazy act, but anyway, on the last night of the trip, he showed me his body and told me he was attractive.

So he’s probably straight.

But what if, really, what if he led him down that path when he was straight…?

That really wasn’t a joke.

He felt guilty for twisting someone’s taste, and the future that would change him.

I’d rather…

“Hey.”

“…Huh!?”

“Be honest, you didn’t hear a thing I said.”

“Uh, no. That is.”

“…Ugh, no. You must have had a hard time too, but you could be dazed. But then, why don’t you follow me, or why do you follow me if I go to a strange place?”

…Why are two men going to strange places?

Her suspicion deepens secretly.

“Ah, don’t be serious, I’m almost there anyway.

“…Huh? Where?”

“Don’t you remember? I said that something better than honey is spread here.”

“…Wasn’t that a joke?”

“Of course not. Actually, the last time I was training, I came to this mountain by myself? That’s when i found it Maybe even the villains didn’t know about this?”

The way he says that with a mischievous smile also suits him well.

…This is how worried someone is because of you, but they are carefree without knowing the speed of others.

A strange scent tickled my nose the further I went beyond the narrow cave.

I thought it was a momentary perfume, but it wasn’t a strong and overpowering scent like perfume.

On the contrary, the more I smelled it, the calming and reassuring scent gradually spread throughout the cave.

The smell of his flesh itself smelled like a delicate flower.

I was anxious because I couldn’t see his face.

What if this stinks…? How does he smell so good when he hasn’t even washed?

“Hmm.”

“I didn’t take it!?”

“Uh, what?”

It’s not for nothing that thieves make my feet go numb, but isn’t it against the law for boys to smell this good? Just looking at the pupils gave off a terrible smell of sweat.

“Oh, no. Nothing. Huh.”

“It’s bland… Ah, anyway, I think we’re almost there. The last time I came, I walked this far and came out?

I don’t know what the hell he’s trying to show, but his voice was so excited that he seemed quite confident.

I was already satisfied.

Actually, just the two of us walking in a place no one knows was nice.

So even if you show me something that isn’t too surprising, you have to pretend to be surprised.

She really thought so.

Until he showed me the sight that he had arrived.

*

“…Hey, what the hell is this?”

“How were you surprised?”

Hani was so surprised that she couldn’t even close her small mouth.

At the deepest part of the cave we arrived at, there was a pool like a small lake.

However, the liquid filled there was something other than water.

What is here is the surplus mana that the dragon vein can’t handle, spit out in liquid form.

Would it be easy to understand if I said it was concentrated mana?

Well, the quality will be a bit low, but in a similar concept, you can think of it as concentrated ether or gongqing oil from other novels.

“Could this be magic…? Really…?”

“Yes.”

There is no need for lilacs, and Cheonyuhak is not effective.

Then who should eat it?

Isn’t there a cadet whose physical skills have been perfected, but whose innate magical power isn’t very large?

“How is it much better than honey?”

“Hey.”

“Huh?”

“I really love you.”

“Yes, yes, I love you too, so get ready quickly.”

It’s finally time to come.

Even the original villain gulp.

Remorse? Where is that! Originally, the fast person in the world is the law.

I’m going in and I’m going to increase the amount of mana and take the rest for recovery.

But after coming all the way here, a certain fact came to my mind.

Hmm, first of all, shall we call it the fountain of magical power temporarily?

Of course, the most perfect way to use this fountain of magic is to go in and do fortune-telling. Is this okay?

No, it’s okay because you don’t have to take off anything.

Is Hani okay?

When I looked back with such a stupid thought, Hani was already jumping toward the fountain of magic.

She sank with her splashes and splashes, and she sprang out of her waters as if she were swimming.

You don’t seem to have any objection. Thank god.

“Hey! What are you doing not coming in! Even though this is different from water, it feels so good!”

She splashed her magic on me as if she was playing with water, and she smiled brightly.

…Really pretty, pretty.

How do you see this as a man? Is it true that everyone has eye problems?

He doesn’t know that I’m so worried about him, and he plays with water comfortably.

You don’t know the speed of others and are carefree.
