Chapter 87 – Festival (4)
“Really… You look good.”
Grande Hill took a few deep breaths, then opened her mouth.
I was puzzled. How am I supposed to accept this? It was said that women’s clothing suits a man well, but it was not a compliment to me.
“…”
I nodded moderately.
And headed to the bathroom. This seat was uncomfortable.
Grandehill is probably… No, I was almost certainly the only one who knew I wasn’t under reverse hypnosis. Almost certain, since the fairy queen didn’t speak.
She doesn’t have anyone close to her, and she’s mostly alone.
There were times when he would sometimes disapprove of me living a promiscuous life within the academy. So I was uncomfortable with her.
But Grandehill got me.
“?”
I looked at her I saw her face with her blush.
“…”
Grandehill stared at me. It’s a bit burdensome.
“Do you have anything to say?”
“… Sorry. I made a mistake.”
Grandehill nodded. But she didn’t let go of her hand.
“… I want to go to the bathroom…”
“Perhaps… If you’ll excuse me, can you take a picture?”
Picture? Suddenly?
I nodded my head politely. It wasn’t a particularly difficult request, but it would have been an advantage if I could build favor with Grandehill with something like this.
Click.
“Can you make a v-shape with a broad smile?”
“… Yeah.”
“And a bit of a chic look…”
“…”
“More than I thought… No, this is beyond imagination… Oh, thank you.”
She was caught like that for about 10 minutes and devoted herself to filming.
***
“What is it, my Shia, why are you here so late? Your sister was worried.”
“There are some things like that.”
“Hoo-ok~ Did you secretly check your preparations to prepare for the talent show?”
“…”
“… What is it, is it real?”
Preparation is right. No matter how much I do, if I just go out dressed as a woman, I won’t get a good grade. The festival consists of half-matches, and if you score points, you can receive elixirs or other things.
I don’t have the coveted elixir, but I’m sure you can get some money by selling it. Even a low-level elixir costs well over 10 million won.
“What is it, what is it? What have you prepared?”
Yoon Chae-rin asked me, trembling with her fuss.
“Sing.”
“It must be a woman’s song, right?”
“It’s a man’s song. How can I call a woman key?”
“Oh, that’s a bit unfortunate.”
Yoon Chae-rin was sorry, but Yoon Seung-ha was different. Clinged next to me and asked me.
“What song did you prepare?”
“It’s a rather old song… Do you know that I must have loved you?”
The reason I chose I must have loved by the YB band was not a big deal. Just because it was my favorite song.
“When is this a song?”
“2005.”
“Wow, isn’t that a song from almost 50 years ago?
Yoon Seung-ha said in surprise.
“Aren’t songs from 50 years ago old songs? Just like trot.”
“It’s a ballad.”
“Yes?”
Yoon Seung-ha made a puzzled expression.
Well, even if you are like me, even if you look at your life in your previous life, if you say a song from 50 years ago, there is a prejudice that it is old.
***
A hall reminiscent of a concert hall.
The space that can accommodate up to 4,000 people was crowded with people today.
“Wow, look at the people. There are really too many.”
“Of course. It’s a talent show, but a lot of popular kids came out. I heard Han Jong-woo sings, Kang Han-nam dances, and Kim Ha-rin and Lim Na-yeon also sing.”
“Come to think of it, didn’t Lee Ji-ah also say that she danced? Isn’t he a wizard?”
“He converted from Hero Academy, so he must have basic physical abilities.”
It was full of chatter from all sides.
It was natural.
In class, Han Jong-woo, Lim Na-yeon, and Kim Ha-rin sang and Lee Ji-ah danced.
So the place almost resembled a concert hall.
It is said that Han Jong-woo is condescending, but he was popular because he looked like a prince. Imna Yeon also has a baby face and a glamorous body, so her popularity is no joke.
Harin Kim was popular because of her flashy style, and because she looked like an actress and looked like an idol.
Eun Soo-ah looked ahead. Eunsoo knows that she basically hates crowded places, but she made a special visit to the hall today.
It was because there was a performance by Lee Si-woo, her regressor.
‘That guy who is a pragmatist has no reason to post in a place like this.’
Others say that she ended up dressing as a woman because she was bruised, but Eun-soo knows her and believes in her. That there was no way Lee Si-woo would do such a foolish thing.
She didn’t seem to be very interested in the merchandise displayed in the class competition either. So she wondered who Eun-soo was. Why did Lee Si-woo, a pragmatist who always puts all his energy into training, a regressor, and a self-propelled thunderbolt, participate in the women’s dress up contest?
Eun Soo-ah thought.
Anti-brain medication. The emperor who uses purple lightning. He built it himself, but he thinks he built it really well. Certainly, if I had this in mind, Weapon Master would not have been good.
‘Wait a minute… Come to think of it, I heard that there are spirits of flame these days. Then, put a spark to the self-inflammation brain drug? Something is a little strange… Rotarian encephalitis is okay, but five letters is a bit different.’
Eun Soo-ah thought of Lee Si-woo’s title, and she sat down. No one around her approaches her. This is because she has cast cognition-damping magic and eight supporting magics on her.
At her student’s level, she’s hard to recognize, and unless you look closely at even her few septums, you wouldn’t know she was her.
After a while, the MC came in.
-Hello, students of Hero Academy.
The MC briefly mentioned the schedule in front of them.
Han Jong-woo came out first. I don’t know the name of the song, but it was a song that gave the feeling that he sang well with a heavy high note.
The second was Lim Na-yeon and Kim Ha-rin.
Originally, the two of them had to go out, but Im Na-yeon didn’t want to team up with Han Jong-woo, so she teamed up with Kim Ha-rin and went out as a duet.
Lim Na-yeon and Kim Ha-rin chose a lively love song. Even to Eun Soo-ah, the two sang well. Harin Kim was in charge of the high notes and Nayeon Lim was in charge of the low notes.
After the song, Eunsoo-ah looked around her.
Then, as if she was unconscionable, she had a thought. The reason Siwoo Lee had to go on stage dressed as a woman. Could it be because the villains tried to ruin the festival?
From the villain’s point of view, even if she dared to enter the Hero Academy with difficulty, she would not touch the festival that the fairy queen was keeping an eye on, but Eun Soo-ah continued her thoughts.
Then. In the past world, there would have been casualties at festivals. To prevent that, it was understandable that he deliberately chose to be invisible and chose to wear women’s clothing.
Inconspicuously, it interferes with the villains’ ulterior motives.
That is Siwoo Lee’s purpose!
Eun Soo-ah nodded her head with a satisfied smile at the answer that protruded to that point.
She also moved like a regressor. Thinking so, Eun Sua looked around and suddenly saw a familiar person.
A woman with bobbed blue hair, wearing artifacts enchanted with all sorts of perception enchantments, was seen staring straight ahead with her camera.
She watched for a second, then a blue-haired woman looked back at her gaze.
‘Oh, the owner of the sword?’
Dayun Nam looked at her quietly, then turned her head away again. Why is the master of the sword here? Eunsoo swallowed her saliva and looked at her.
I know that Siwoo Lee is acquainted with Dayoon Nam. I accidentally heard her talking to Lee Ji-ah… Eun-soo swallowed her saliva. Are you saying that the villain who breaks into the festival and causes a commotion is that strong? To the extent that a worthy hero has to step up?
Then another person appeared. Grandehill, the shadow of the fairy queen with prominent gray hair. I saw her in her maid outfit.
As the owner of a rare ability called spatial interference, she was more famous outside than at school. She is quiet now, but in the past, when she fought the demon king, she was more famous with her aliases such as the Witch of Rakshasa and the Grande Hill of Massacre.
It was one of the reasons Eunsoo knew her and cared about her.
Rake witch.
Massacre’s Grandehill.
It was because her nicknames that modify her were very cool.
And another one. It was because Grandehill was one of the people the Mage’s Tower was keeping an eye on. She has an attribute that boasts the most outstanding power among all attribute powers, called the Three Attributes.
Space, time and stars.
It was very simple to enjoy riches and honors even if there was only one of those three things, whether it was supernatural ability or magic. However, it was also an attribute that was targeted a lot by villains.
This is because those with that attribute excelled as “Sacrifices.”
While I was thinking for a moment, the MC came forward and congratulated Ban on his victory. It was only natural that Lim Na-yeon, Kim Harin, and Han Jong-woo went out.
Then it was dancing.
The dance was performed by Lee Ji-ah, but she was unfortunately defeated. And the showdown that came out as an event.
The first was a large man. He was a little over two meters tall and was a muscular student. She wore a ripped blouse and a pleated skirt. The men hated it, but the women were staring at the exposed muscles.
The big boy entered with a few poses that accentuated his muscles.
In the second, a pretty handsome male student came out and dressed as a girl. He winked and danced to see if he was confident in his appearance.
The third student is Siwoo Lee. When Lee Si-woo’s name was called, loud voices were heard from all sides. I could hear the screams and screams of the female students, and even the male students started shouting loudly.
On stage.
There was a thrifty Cain. Would he have such a sweetness that he had tilted the country in the past? It must have been a man, but there was Cain, who boasts a look that attracts people of all ages and genders.
Siwoo Lee remained calm despite the noise coming from all directions. Normally, a man dressed as a woman should have some unnatural parts, but Lee Si-woo even had very little of that. No, that part was rather more attractive.
-Wow, student Lee Si-woo suits you very well. I almost fell for him even though I knew he was a man. Right, guys?
Yeah yeah yeah!!!!!
At the MC’s words, an ear-piercing scream rang out. In response, Lee Si-woo made a puzzled expression.
-Please introduce yourself.
-This is Siwoo Lee from class A.
-Did you prepare something like a personal skill?
-… Yes, we are ready.
Lee Si-woo said with a very disapproving expression.
-I have prepared a song.
– A song? Listening to your voice, you seem to be doing really well. What kind of song did you prepare?
-This is YB Band’s Must Have Loved You.
-Ah! That song is really good But it must be a difficult song for students these days. I guess I loved you is a song that is almost 50 years old.
– Personally, I am a fan…
-Oh, I see. If you’re a fan, you can. So let’s get started.
– Let’s play the guitar for a while.
All lights were turned off except for the one illuminating Siwoo Lee. Dim space. Under the soft light, Siwoo Lee played the guitar. The noise died down as he played his guitar. The sound of the guitar resonated beautifully.
He rode the rhythm with his body as he strummed the guitar. Even that was like a painting.
– Parting must be easier than dating. A cold person.
The voice was good.
The tone was not unusual, but it felt comfortable. I didn’t feel that I was particularly good at it, but it was something different when I heard that Lee Si-woo sang it.
“Fuck, fuck. Really fucking handsome! Ha, I really want to go out with Siwoo Lee just once!! Siwoo oppa I love you!!!!”
“You’re the same age as him…”
“I don’t know, fuck. If you’re handsome, you’re all oppa! Oppa!!!”
I saw a female student screaming and a male student stopping him. She was not just herself, but most of the women around her were women. No, not only the girls, but also the male students could hear the groaning from somewhere.
-I must have loved you, I must not be able to forget you. I keep thinking about it, I can’t stand it.
Highlight part. The screaming of women also went up.
Lee Si-woo glanced at the scene and smiled.
Then the screams intensified. It is not a talent show, but it has turned into an idol concert hall. No, wait a minute. Isn’t that a nosebleed?
Eun Soo-ah looked at Granhilde in confusion. Her blood was dripping from her nose. After all, she couldn’t have Gran Hilde here for nothing. Granhilde must have helped Lee Si-woo to stop the villain’s plan.
Granhilde’s nose bleed at the song Siwoo Lee sang while dressed as a woman, and at the scene where she laughed hard, but that must have been because of the accumulated damage. Even Eun Soo-ah acknowledges Lee Si-woo’s good looks, but it’s not like the shadow of the fairy queen or the witch of Rakshasa will make your nose bleed!
The song was running toward the end before I knew it. In the beginning, her talent in dressing as a woman was only a brief taste. The time to sing was only about a minute.
-But I think it’s somehow sad that he’s not you. An unforgettable person. Woo~~
Lee Si-woo looking at the front with slightly vague eyes.
After the stage, there were female students fainting here and there.
Then Eun Soo-ah saw it. She staggered as if she was dizzy.
My God, even the sword master who is close to the highest rank is like that. What the hell was the fight about?
Eun Soo-ah regretted not being able to participate in the fight.
