Chapter 211 – Competitors
#211.
“Gaon-san, are you here?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
The place they were standing now was in front of a five-story building built on Guild Street, only 10 minutes away from downtown.
It was too large a building to be used in a guild with a total of only six people, but it had to be this large to provide a private residence and space for training.
It was a building like this anyway, so even if thousands or tens of thousands of units were erected, there would be no shortage of funds, so it was enforced.
“Let’s go in.”
Gaon led the two of them to the building. Wizards were also mobilized for construction, so there was no need for keys. The lock was unlocked when magic was projected.
Upon entering, the neat and tidy interior was revealed.
“And! It’s a real new building!”
“This is our home and guild from now on. It’s strange. When I first came here, I didn’t know it would turn out this well. It’s all thanks to Gaon.”
“It was nothing. I am truly grateful.”
The existence of the two who always support and support him by his side is an indispensable and precious treasure.
After exchanging warm smiles for a moment, he met her eyes, then gently pushed her back and pointed in front of her.
“Let’s celebrate later, but first, let’s take a look at the building. I won’t lose the way, but there are so many rooms and it’s spacious, so if you don’t memorize it properly, you’ll get confused.”
“All right. Song.”
“Hurry up, both of you!”
Chorin went ahead and was waiting right in front of the stairs. The two smiled and approached her.
Climb the stairs to reach the second floor. There were reception rooms and various auxiliary facilities to receive guests.
“And! The reception room is very spacious! This is a balcony, and there is a rest area. What else is this?”
Ha-yeon looked around her room and commented on her impressions. It’s quite noisy and hectic, but since today was the first time, Chorin didn’t say anything in particular, and she just calmly looked around the building.
They passed the second floor noisily and went up to the third floor. It would not be an exaggeration to say that this place was exclusively for Hayeon.
“Is this the training room? And! What is this?”
Hayeon went into a separate room inside the training room. And as she tapped the vending machine, magic power poured from her ceiling and began to crush her body.
“And! Your body is heavy!”
It is a very effective device for increasing agility with a gravity magic circle. Although the magic crystals were consumed relentlessly and the maintenance cost was very expensive, because of Chorin, it was possible to use it without any burden.
After passing the 3rd floor, the next is the 4th floor.
This is where his office to deal with work and a laboratory to help Chorin with his magic research are located. Her achievements will be accelerated because she has filled up various reagents and tools with the highest quality.
Chorin looked around her lab and gave her a thumbs up.
“Gaon-san, the best!”
“I’m glad you seem to like it.”
And the last 5th floor is the residential floor where they will stay.
Since an entire floor was used, everything was large. In addition to the kitchen and living room, there are more than 5 bathrooms, each of which can be used one by one.
In addition, there is a huge bathroom that is equivalent to a public bath, and there is also a separate cinema where you can watch movies.
In addition, there were useful facilities that I thought I would use often and even cryptic places that I really wanted to use, so I could live my whole life without going out if I wanted to.
After assigning individual rooms, they looked around the house and sat side by side on the sofa in the living room.
“Gaon, but what about the magic stone? Originally, the work was done in advance over there and brought here. Surely you don’t have to go over every day? It’s not particularly bad, but it’s a waste of money if you go back and forth every day.”
By simple calculation, 4 magic cores per year. In other words, it was really easygoing to see him barely worrying about the gate cost even though he had the ability to earn 1.2 billion gold.
However, no matter how much money she has, her opinion has some truth, as it was wise to cut down on unnecessary spending.
“Of course. Now, on the contrary, I will work on what I brought from the other side. It won’t change that much anyway.”
“Then I’m glad.”
Chorin nodded and was relieved. After her conversation with her was over, Ha-yeon immediately intervened this time.
“Rather than that, our houses do it. Houses!”
“Houses?”
“Yes! Maybe not?”
“No, that’s not it. Jaehee said she would come to a housewarming sometime. I’ll contact you.”
“Oh yea!”
Looking at Ha-yeon, who is delighted, with a smile, she takes out her communicator, inputs Jae-hee’s coordinates, and is about to inject her magic power, but Cho-rin suddenly interrupts.
“Gaon, where are you going to contact me?”
“First of all, contacting Jae-hee and then contacting me within a few hours of the breakup is a bit much, but I have to tell the people in Barrymore as well. The house is so spacious anyway, so the more people there are, the better.”
“And what?”
“And? Were there more?”
If I had to mention it, there would be Kielune’s family and Yu Mi-ri from the tutorial area, whom I met earlier, but it’s too much to call even those people.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t think of it, so when I saw her Chorin, she opened her mouth to tell me the correct answer.
“Lugiana-sama.”
“Yes? Are you in Rouge?”
“Yes! Did you mean not to call me?”
“…”
To be honest, I didn’t think of including myself in her options at all. Isn’t it strange that she invites the queen of the underworld to a housewarming party?
But put it that way, it doesn’t even make sense that such a woman confessed her love to him.
“I made a mistake. I need to contact you.”
“Oh hey, be careful. If I hadn’t called, would you have been very sad?”
“Thank you.”
As a token of gratitude, Gaon gave Chorin a short kiss on the lips and injected her magical energy into the communicator while thinking about when to set the date for the housewarming.
***
“Jaehee, it’s been a while.”
“Yes! Gaon, how have you been? This is a housewarming gift. It’s a diffuser set, but it’s activated with magic stones, so it can be used semi-permanently.”
“Thank you.”
The housewarming was held three days after the contact was made.
After receiving a housewarming gift from Jaehee, Gaon went up to the second floor with her. Everyone except for Louisiana had already gathered.
In the reception room, more than ten people were enjoying refreshments and talking amicably. When Jaehee appeared, everyone came over and introduced themselves and exchanged greetings.
“Then Jaehee, you are talking to people here. I still have someone to come, so I’ll go down.”
“Ah yes! See you later.”
Giving a rough answer, she dealt with a lot more people than she expected with a look of bewilderment, and escaped safely with Chorin’s help.
Gaon’s sensitive senses felt all the hesitant movements of Jaehee when he met Chorin.
‘What the hell am I thinking.’
Even if Jaehee said yes, Chorin couldn’t figure out what the plan was. It’s really terrifying to see her friend help her out in a situation where she is openly targeting her man, and casually sticking by her side.
When I imagined how Jae-hee would react on the day he found out the truth, and how much he would suffer from Cho-rin, sympathy naturally sprung up.
Gaon looked at Chorin’s back and returned to the first floor.
She stood at the entrance of the building and waited for a while, and soon Rougiana arrived.
“Welcome.”
“Yes, this is a housewarming gift.”
What she presented was an unexpectedly luxurious duvet set. When she was taken aback by the gift that was completely out of her image, Rouge went out with a grin, and then she came closer and whispered in her ear.
“Someday you’ll cover it with me.”
“… Let’s go up first.”
“Okay. Let’s go.”
As if he didn’t want an answer in the first place, even though he openly changed the subject, he climbed the stairs right away without commenting or hanging around.
Gaon, who had just climbed the stairs, glanced at Lougiena while thinking of Jaehee.
‘Come to think of it, these two were meeting for the first time.’
It’s not like the two are enemies or anything. However, it was unknown what would happen if the two people who could be said to be having a fling with Gaon now met.
Above all, if you were Lugiena, you would know that Gaon was dating Jaehee. The problem is, since you wouldn’t even know the information that Chorin allowed it, it’s highly likely that you misunderstood that she was having an affair secretly.
If he even mentioned it to Chorin or Jaehee, the housewarming could have turned into a mess.
Gaon cautiously opened his mouth.
“Lugiana. It’s sudden, but I have a request.”
“Ask? What?”
“… Do you know Jaehee? A former disciple of Reinkel Heinrich, the deputy owner of the Gray Mage Tower.”
“Is she that woman? Of course she knows she’s the girl who’s after you Just like me.”
The last words strangely linger in my ears for a long time. Gaon trembled and then continued.
“Can you keep the dating thing a secret? I wish I hadn’t told anyone.”
“Huh… ? He’s a worse man than you think. Are you cheating on your lovers?”
“… That’s not it. All lovers know. There are just circumstances. Anyway, can you keep it a secret?”
I thought about it for a while and put forward a condition for her.
“Okay. Kiss me instead.”
“A kiss?”
“Okay. Kiss.”
“…”
As if she was ready, she lifted her head at a 45 degree angle and closed her eyes. Gaon couldn’t help but frown at her.
No matter how much it was, I wondered if it was right to even kiss him for a request like this, and it seemed like it was too much to ask for such a high price for just one kiss, but I couldn’t easily let go of my mouth at all.
She hesitated for a moment, and in the meantime, Rouge opened her eyes and smiled as if she was cute, then she pulled her by the collar and kissed her on the mouth.
Her luxurious fragrance rushed into her nostrils with the touch of her soft, moist lips.
But as if she couldn’t be satisfied with that, she stretched out her tongue, coiled around Gaon’s flesh, and exchanged her saliva.
Then she leaned over and pressed her entire abdomen with her voluptuous breasts.
Gaon wanted to get her erection, so he quickly retrieved her tongue and pushed me away.
“Let’s do it here. Are you done now?”
“It’s still a pity, but I’m satisfied enough with this. Let’s go up.”
Watching her go up the stairs with her nonchalant expression as if she had sucked her tongue on her side, Gaon let out a deep sigh and headed for her second floor.
When we go to her reception room, as expected, everyone comes up to her and introduces herself. And finally, Jaehee faced her.
“… It’s called Genius Hee. Please take care of me.”
“Rugiena Calliope. Please take good care of me.”
The gazes of the two holding hands met in the air for a very short time and sparks flew.
Through some inexplicable intuition, Jaehee realized that the woman in front of her had a crush on Gaon just like her.
Someone might think what she cares about while flirting with a man who already has three lovers and a child, but that’s not always the case.
This is because if you fall behind in this competition, you will be pushed to the fifth place, not the fourth place.
It was only a number difference, but it was an absolute thing that could not be filled with anything.
The confrontation between the two ended with Chorin’s intervention.
“Then everyone gathered. Now, I will guide you from the inside. Will Lugiena-sama go too?”
“Of course. It will be my home someday.”
Rougeena said that she had no intention of hiding her feelings, as if she had declared calmly in front of dozens of people, and then left her reception room with Chorin.
