## Chapter 262 – 262. Shin Yuna
#262. Shin Yuna
The Seongbuk Choi Clan in the North.
The Jinryu Han Clan in the West.
And finally, the Cheonghae Shin Clan in the East.
These three families are collectively known as the Three Great Magical Families.
Their recognition rivals that of top-tier conglomerates in the business world. In fact, it was safe to say that almost everyone in South Korea knew about these three families.
Among these Three Great Magical Families, the Cheonghae Shin Clan was particularly well-known, thanks to Shin Yuna, the next head of the family and a Hallyu star.
The most famous actress in all of Asia, and the youngest and fastest to reach 100 million viewers.
A Hollywood mogul once remarked that she was “the reincarnation of the god of acting.”
In the past, the Cheonghae Shin Clan had the lowest profile among the three families.
However, things changed drastically when Shin Yuna, the next head of the Cheonghae Shin Clan, debuted as an actress over a decade ago.
The public’s interest in Shin Yuna naturally extended to her family, the Cheonghae Shin Clan, causing the stock prices of various businesses run by the family to skyrocket.
Moreover, unlike the other two families, which were primarily human-centric, the Cheonghae Shin Clan was supported by the demi-humans as they were known as descendants of the dragon, the Dragonkin.
“…I’m Kang Hyun-woo.”
I swallowed hard and sat down across from her.
I thought I had developed some immunity to beautiful faces through my experiences so far.
But having a celebrity I only saw on TV right in front of me made it difficult to calm down.
Moreover, it was none other than Shin Yuna.
First love candidate, top actress in terms of looks, and the woman everyone wanted as an older sister.
It was hard for any man born and raised in South Korea not to be excited in this situation. Above all, there was another reason why it was hard for me to calm down.

[First Step Towards Alpha Male
Rank: Special
Take the virginity of the woman designated by the app.
Target: Shin Yuna (New!)
Reward: ‘Sex Expert’ rank up, ???]
[※Any criminal acts such as threats or rape will automatically result in mission failure.]
I rubbed my eyes and checked the screen again.
[Target: Shin Yuna (New!)]
But nothing changed.
‘Are these guys really crazy?’
I cursed the operators of the dating app, who may or may not exist.
Are they telling me to sleep with Shin Yuna right now?
The evolution mission for the Berserk skill, which was the same rank, was simply to defeat 10 B-grade magical beasts with my bare hands, but the difference in difficulty was too extreme.
‘…Should I just give up?’
There’s an old saying, “Don’t even look at a tree you can’t climb.”
It meant that it was wiser to give up quickly than to cling to the impossible, an advice from our ancestors to run away if you feel overwhelmed.
Logically, it was right to back down here as our ancestors said, but it wasn’t like there was no way at all.
[Celebrity Insertion Ticket
Rank: Unique
Choose either the vagina or anus of the celebrity you want and enjoy it as you wish. When using the ticket, the selected body part of the actress is summoned to be visible only to the user, and the sensation is connected to the actress herself. ※You don’t have to worry about pregnancy even if you ejaculate inside!]
It was an item I got when I first started the dating app, and I had been keeping it in the corner of my inventory because I had no chance to use it.
Anyone could see that it was an item meant to be used in situations like this, but there were a few things that made me uneasy.
First of all, even if I used this to sleep with Shin Yuna, it was uncertain whether the app would acknowledge it.
[Would you like to use the Unicorn’s Gaze on the target?]
[Y/N]
[Y]
[Shin Yuna
Status: Virgin]
Above all, I felt bad about taking a virginity like this.
Should I say that I felt a pang of conscience?
After a moment of contemplation, I came to a conclusion.
‘Let’s just give up.’
I used to rely on skills often, but recently I rarely used them when having sex.
I could satisfy my partner without having to use skills, and women were even struggling to handle me on their own.
And I’m already suppressing my pheromones, so why bother evolving the skill?
There was no need to cling to it.
Of course, I was curious about what the ‘???’ was in the reward list, but it wasn’t worth it. It was true that most wizards were curious and couldn’t resist, but they were also more calculating than that.
“Hehe, I’ve heard a lot about you. I heard you and Ra-el are in that kind of relationship?”
“…Pardon?”
Ra-el?
Shin Yuna smiled gently when she saw me flustered by the informal address.
“We’re childhood friends. I think we’ve known each other for about 25 years?”
25 years?
As far as I knew, Han Ra-el was 29 years old. Shin Yuna was also 29 years old according to her profile.
That meant they had known each other since they were at least 4 years old.
‘Well, it would be weirder if the Three Great Families didn’t interact.’
Both of them were born as the eldest daughters of the Three Great Families.
Moreover, they were the same gender and the same age, so they had perfect conditions for building friendship.
“We don’t see each other as often as we did when we were kids because we’re busy, but we still call each other to check in sometimes. If we’re lucky, we even get to meet.”
Shin Yuna kept smiling as if she was having fun. Thanks to that, it was hard for me to concentrate on the conversation.
It wasn’t for nothing that Shin Yuna’s signature gesture was called a smile on TV.
I was thirsty today.
“Ahem!”
Han Ra-el glanced at me and coughed, as if she didn’t like my reaction.
A high-ranking wizard who wouldn’t be affected even if she drank Cheongseongari was coughing.
Shin Yuna’s eyes curved prettily at the sight.
For some reason, she reminded me of the nun who used to watch soap operas every morning.
“Um, but what do you mean by me and the Tower Master being in that kind of relationship?”
“Feigning ignorance?”
“No, I’m not.”
I didn’t know what they had talked about before I came, but I decided to play dumb for now.
No matter how close they were, I didn’t think Han Ra-el, who had a social position, would tell others that she had slept with me, a mere student.
The current head of the Jinryu Han Clan and the next head of the Cheonghae Shin Clan, before being friends, the two were also potential rivals.
There was no way she would have revealed something that could be her weakness to Shin Yuna.
Maybe the two of them were testing whether I was light-mouthed or not.
“Then, can I ask why you came here today?”
“It’s simple. It’s because I’m a genius.”
“…A genius?”
I nodded.
Since I was going to play dumb, I decided to be brazen about it.
“The Tower Master, who highly values my talent, has been personally teaching me every Monday.”
It wasn’t entirely wrong.
The Tower Master was interested in me because she was intrigued by my abnormal growth rate.
But Shin Yuna looked at me with a raised eyebrow, perhaps because it was a somewhat poor excuse that I had come up with on the spot.
“Hehe, you’re the first person to call themselves a genius since Ra-el in middle school.”
Han Ra-el glared at Shin Yuna at the sudden black history reveal.
She looked like she would have cast a spell if I wasn’t there.
“But Ra-el had the talent to be called a genius. An overwhelming talent that would overshadow the world.”
“Are you saying I don’t?”
Shin Yuna shrugged at my answer.
“Well, I don’t think you’re quite that good. Besides, Ra-el isn’t responsible enough to be interested in nurturing juniors. But she’s regularly spending time with a mere student? Logically, it can only be seen as that kind of relationship…”
At that moment, Shin Yuna’s eyes shook violently. It was a look of surprise and embarrassment.
Fire, lightning, light, darkness.
The four elements harmonized and rotated above my hand.
“Do you still think I’m not qualified to be taught by the Tower Master?”
“…I heard you were a 2nd Circle mage.”
“People grow, you know.”
As far as I knew, Shin Yuna was a 5th Circle mage like me. And a elementalist who controlled the element of water.
She would know how difficult it was to control four elements.
In the first place, unless you had mastered the Musang Geumganggyeol and expanded the Astral Realm like me, there were virtually very few elementalists who could control four elements.
Maybe there were only a handful in the whole world.
“Hyun-woo…?”
Han Ra-el’s expression was also full of embarrassment, as if she hadn’t expected me to control four elements.
It was a fresh reaction, but I decided to explain it to her later and avoided her gaze.
She probably already knew that I had reached the 5th Circle anyway.
“So you two aren’t together at all?”
Shin Yuna’s voice, which came just in time, was higher than before. She seemed to be in a good mood for some reason.
The look in her eyes towards me also seemed to be sparkling.
But I didn’t care and nodded.
“Yes, if I had to say, it’s a short-term master-disciple relationship.”
Of course, I didn’t learn anything from Han Ra-el.
But maybe I could learn something soon?
Personally, I was interested in curses and space magic.
“Heung, then how about me?”
“…Pardon?”
Shin Yuna, who had suddenly gotten up from her seat, came to me and grabbed my hand. I could feel the soft texture of her skin on my fingertips.
Something was starting to go strangely.
While I was flustered, Shin Yuna narrowed the distance with a soft smile. Her breath touched my ear.
“My father has been nagging me about when I’m going to get married for months now, you know? I hate arranged marriages with people I don’t like, so I’ve been postponing the matchmaking dates, but it’s getting harder and harder.”
I listened quietly.
It was definitely not because of the feeling of her breasts touching my arm.
“Fortunately, I’m the next head of the family, so I don’t have to worry too much about the other person’s wealth or family. My father said I could bring anyone as long as they were capable.”
“What does that have to do with me…”
“You still don’t get it?”
Shin Yuna’s fingertips brushed my thigh and tickled me.
“I’m seducing you right now.”
I swallowed hard at the blatant touch. I was nervous for no reason, perhaps because I had jerked off to Shin Yuna’s pictures a few times when I was in high school.
“I’ve never seen anyone control four elements at the age of 21. And you’re not a 2nd Circle, are you?”
Shin Yuna’s eyes shone as she looked at me. Her vertically torn pupils glowed eerily.
It was the Dragon Eyes, one of the abilities of the Dragonkin, who were known as the descendants of the dragon.
“A concealment necklace isn’t a common item…”
Shin Yuna found the necklace hidden inside my shirt. But she didn’t take it off recklessly.
Instead, she stroked my cheek with an interested expression.
“If Hyun-woo is okay with it…”
“Shin Yuna.”
At that moment, the mana in the air fluctuated along with a cold, subdued voice.
Shin Yuna, who was half-leaning on me, turned her head.
“Take your hands off Hyun-woo.”
There, Han Ra-el was glaring at us with an expression I had never seen before.
It was obvious that she was upset.
