The Kids I Saved Are Too Strong - Chapter 173
173 – During the meeting -3
‘I didn’t expect to come here again…’
This shop with a really simple trade name, Ramen, had its own meaning to me.
It was the place I came to when I went on a date with Ha-yeon, but it was also the place where I ate when I first set foot in Sol.
Of course, the taste of the ramen I ate here was also deeply etched in my mind. Along with the price of ramen.
For me, who always ate rice for less than a few thousand won, the price of this ramen was so expensive that I could automatically say that it was crazy.
‘Of course, Ha-yeon gave it to me.’
Even if you asked me to buy it, I would have bought it as much as it was my sister’s request, but I would have shed bloody tears.
‘If Ah-young comes to this ramen shop with confidence, then it must be a famous place?’
Even though the distance is quite far, the fact that you dare to visit this place must mean that you believe in the taste of this restaurant.
It may be a restaurant that everyone in the Sun Guild knows about.
“Do you often come to eat ramen?”
“I come here often. The price is not burdensome and the taste is good, so even if I can’t make it, I come to eat at least once a week. Today is that day.”
You said you were attracted and asked to eat ramen?
“Did you say you’ve eaten here before?”
“Yes, I came here once and ate there.”
“Wait a minute. On the day Suhyeon came to Sol and ate ramen… I can’t believe…”
Mina-san looked at me with a shocked face.
“Yes, it’s the day the red moon caused the terror.”
“Now that I think about it, this little boy was the one who went mad and said that Baek Ha-yeon had to save him?
“I didn’t get stabbed by the neck, I grabbed her by the throat. I heard she was really trying to kill me?”
“Did something like that happen?”
“Uh, how strong would we have been to say that the only S-Class Awakener in the city was rampaging when there was no guild leader? It suddenly rose… Ah, thinking about it now makes me angry again.”
Ayoung glanced down at me.
“I had to throw it in the fountain earlier… don’t you agree?”
“Slightly?”
It seems that Hayeon has accumulated quite a lot.
“Do you have a bad relationship with Hayeon?”
“If you look at whether it’s good or bad, it’s good, right? First of all, since we’re both former security guards, we’ve been very casual in private. “
“Miss Mina too?”
“I’m similar to him. Should I call him a bad friend? But the captain is a much higher-ranking person, so I could hardly counterattack.”
“Shall we take a hostage with this kid?”
“Arthur. Then we really die.”
Despite Mina’s dissuade, Ayeong’s face showed a lot of sincerity, so she decided to change her words first.
If we continued to talk in this state, it seemed like we would end up kidnapping and holding hostages, even just for fun.
“First, let’s go into the store. It will take time to order and leave, but we can’t stand still, can we?”
“Okay. Let’s go right in.”
As soon as I finished speaking, Mina-san seemed to immediately understand what I meant and went straight into the store.
“Okay, first of all, eat and think.”
There were a considerable number of people in the store, but I sat in an appropriately empty seat and ordered three ramen.
“Kid, can’t you eat the whole bowl?
“You’re going to eat it all? Why do you think you’re going to leave it to yourself?”
“Wouldn’t you like to leave some soup?”
“No, I will eat them all.”
It’s been a long time since I visited a restaurant to eat, but I can’t give up even the soup.
“Hey, turn off the sound.”
“Because you’ve been doing it before? Since you’re such an outstanding bitch, I didn’t know when something would happen, so I blocked the sound a long time ago. It’s very inefficient, but it covered our appearance to some extent.”
“You’re quick to notice.”
Ahyoung smirked and laughed.
“What are you talking about, check the sound first?”
“It’s not a big deal. Isn’t it a big issue just by talking among ourselves?
Since Ayeong was smiling ominously, I wanted to lead the conversation first.
“How far did the meeting go?”
“It’s sluggishly increasing. It’s the first gate to appear as a climbing gate, and there’s not much known about it, so I think a proper meeting will be held after speculation on what a climbing gate is and future predictions. The prediction part has started, so I will do it for a few more hours.”
“Do meetings last that long?”
Speaking of the Sun Guild, it’s a place where only the best Awakeners in Sol are gathered, but why is the meeting so dragged on?
“It’s all because of the faction fight.”
Ahyoung let out a deep sigh.
“It’s just that factional fighting is all because everyone has a lot of time to talk about.”
“I’m talking shit. If you have a lot of time, will there be unconditional meetings? It’s all because of factions.”
A sharp battle of nerves went back and forth between Ayoung and Mina.
“To be honest, I don’t know if this incident is enough to bring together almost all the High Awakeners in the Sun Guild and say it.
“Because it’s such an important issue. Do you think the need to gather the leaders of the Sun Guild and hold a meeting is sufficient?”
“There is a department dedicated to dealing with these things. There is an organization that prepares for social changes and predicts and prevents crises, so why are you gathering high-ranking guild members to have a meeting? If necessary, just sharing information while working together is enough, so why call all the people who are resting?”
“They were in the meeting too.”
Ayoung rubbed her forehead with a frustrated expression.
“Didn’t you see how they treated you? If you try to say something, the other Awoken will say, ‘You’re not even a High Awoken, but you’re interfering somewhere.’ With that expression and tone of voice, they beat up Mushi, but I wonder if they’ll be able to bring it out properly.”
“That’s true, we know the gate much better than they do, so isn’t it right to keep our mouths shut no matter how formally we call?”
“Don’t be ridiculous, those guys are experts. Even if they have less gates than us and have weaker abilities, they are the most specialized in maximizing and controlling the surplus within the guild. Experts can’t open their mouths and only know how to kill monsters. Those who don’t know anything about politics are high-ranking people. I just kept watching the Awakened faction splitting into factions fighting and fighting, would it taste like a meeting?
Ah-young lifted the water cup that was on the table and hit the one-shot coolly.
“Even if I see you from time to time, you have a sense of the chosen people. Even if you are an A-class Awakener, let’s admit that you don’t know what you don’t know. It’s a clear fact that they know much better than we do. “
“Isn’t it like that?”
“No, it’s not. I heard that you were the one who opposed the guild leader’s plan to establish a B-class Awakener the most when setting up a new guard captain after Baek Yeon-ha left?”
“The captain of the guard is a position that requires the minimum amount of force. An A-level is fine, but a B-level Awakener lacks power.”
“Because he has enough ability to fill that force, the guild leader must have tried to put that bitch in that position. Don’t you think that much?”
The atmosphere was unusual.
I heard that politics and religion aren’t even close friends, but I felt like the conversation was gradually turning toward politics.
“So, when do you think the meeting will be over?”
“Would it be over if I waited for another 5 hours? The guild leader would let the kids fight their factions, and the factions that are out there these days would lose their spirits, and then they would come up with a proper plan by quoting the experts. It’s always been that way. When I came to tell you about the gate, it went the same way as now, so I’ll say it again, but I didn’t leave the meeting without thinking. .”
“Ah-yeong, don’t you have a clique?”
“There is, but… It’s more of a gathering than a clique. Is it just a friendship with my younger siblings who follow me?”
Okay, it seems like you got over the heavy atmosphere safely.
While I was resting like that, ramen came out.
