Chapter 14 – 04. Your Eyes Looking at Me (2)
Yoo Seol-ah’s cold eyes stared at me quietly.
Her sky-blue hair, as if she had been shaved off ice, and her horribly expressionless face, made it feel like she was looking at a plaster statue.
Her gaze soon turned to the female student who was holding my wrist gently.
He kept an expressionless expression at me the entire time, but when his gaze moved to the girl, I saw her tightly pursed lips quivering.
“Hehe, I’m sorry, but I have something urgent, so I have to go first.
“I think you can just keep going…”
“Take a look around~”
After saying that, the female student smiled at me, turned her body around, and walked out of the publicity space at a brisk pace.
No, what would I do with this atmosphere if I left behind?
As Yu Seol-ah, who was standing near the entrance, slowly walks toward me, her eyes are drawn to the student council badge on her uniform top.
No, her big breasts, which are heavier and grander than her badge… She can’t take her eyes off her every time she walks.
I was seized with a strong urge to knead her breasts, forgetting that her first meeting with her was going in a very negative way.
“Lee Ji-hoo, that’s right.”
While I was seriously contemplating whether to touch her breasts and try to rectify this somehow with her hypnosis, she pursed her lips and quietly brought out her words.
I don’t think we’ve spoken aloud to each other yet, but to know my unspoken name… Does that mean you’ve been watching me for a long time?
“Ah, hello senior. Student council member… Must be you? How are you getting along with the person who just left…”
“You, join the student council right now.”
Before I even panicked that I knew my name, a bigger problem came over me.
To suddenly join the student council? For fear of this, I originally didn’t want to come.
Yu Seol-ah looked at me as if she would stay here until I answered, and stood leaning against one side of her desk with her arms crossed expressionlessly.
Perhaps it was because of the ‘frost fog’ that naturally appeared around her depending on her emotional state, but before I knew it, I felt her body tremble.
…In this current atmosphere, telling me to join the student council was no different from some kind of threat, saying, ‘If I refuse, I won’t kill you, but I’ll harass you until you don’t die’.
In fact, if you stay within the range of her passive abilities for long enough, she can suffer physical damage, such as her frostbite, even if she is an Awoken.
In the end, she couldn’t help but nod her head to accept, not accept. As if she had achieved her goal, she undid her arms and tried to enter the waiting room for officials inside her.
However, even though it was difficult to stand in front of her any longer, the first meeting with her could not end in vain.
Even though I knew I wouldn’t get a satisfactory answer, I opened my still trembling mouth and spat out the words into her back.
“I haven’t even heard the senior’s name yet.”
It was a small voice that was close to talking to herself, but as if she heard it clearly, she turned her slowly walking body and started walking back to me.
The steps that were rapidly approaching me with furrowed eyebrows gradually got closer to me… At some point, they stopped with a pop.
A distance so close that a piece of paper could barely pass.
Her fair skin and red, moist lips, with no visible blemishes, were kept at a breathtaking distance, almost touching my neck, and even though I wrapped my hands around her breasts and pulled her toward myself, her bottom breasts still touched my belly, soft and tender. I felt the touch.
Her light blue eyes were still staring at my face coldly, but her light breath tickled my neck as it touched my skin, and the blood began to trickle down again.
“…Yuseol-ah.”
Yoo Seol-ah, who had been silent, uttered a word quietly and walked away from me.
When she left, the faint scent of vanilla lingered around her.

I didn’t have the energy to look around anymore after the first meeting with Yu Seol-ah, who was losing her energy, so I ended up returning to the classroom.
Actually, you can go home right now, but I needed time to sort out the doubts that had just occurred.
How did Yu Seol-ah know my name, and why did she ask me to join the student council?
And most of all, she wondered if the uneasy gaze she felt the other day was hers…
As she pondered over her complicated thoughts, she suddenly heard a notification sound from her cell phone.
– Tring!
I wondered if it was a hypnosis application quest, so I quickly unlocked the pattern and checked the text, but the only thing that appeared on the screen was a short text from an unregistered number.
[Tomorrow, after lunch, at the student union until 1:00.]
“Ugh…”
I knew who sent this text at once.
For some reason, the hypnosis app has not yet been instructed to attack any heroine after the emergency quest for Ha-yul, but I tried to reveal the suspicious purpose that Seol-ah Yoo is hiding and fill out her profile and act more aggressively from tomorrow. Decided to
The sudden text interrupted my concentration and I was about to pack my bag and leave the classroom, but I happened to run into Sang-ho walking down the hallway.
“Uh, hello Jihoo!”
“Hello. That… Sangho, did you apply to join the student council?”
As a result of watching him from the side for a week, he seemed to have a kind personality, although he was a bit lacking, so I naturally thought that Sang-ho must have been caught and enrolled in the student council.
“Huh? Uh… Well, I heard from the senior I talked about last time today that something urgent has happened within the student council…”
Ah, fuck.
Is this the fate of a person who fell into another world without anyone knowing?
“Hey, then you should have told me sooner…! Oh, no. You must have been dragged anyway…”
Come to think of it, regardless of whether or not he told me in advance, I was destined to be forcibly put into the student council by Yoo Seol-ah, so I couldn’t be angry with him…
Seeing Sang-ho succeeded in evading social networking, I was annoyed for some reason, so I went to Ha-yul’s house and took out my anger on Ha-yul, who had left school in advance, and returned home.

Wei Ying.
-Ding ding ding~ Good morning~
Smartphones in the real world, which are now only used for wake-up calls, vibrate with loud sounds.
After groping my hand to turn off the alarm, I went to the kitchen, put the frying pan on the stove, took two eggs out of the refrigerator, and started preparing breakfast.
Following yesterday’s busy event, another special event awaited today.
It was the day of the one-on-one sparring, an important practice that was announced last week.
If you look at other academy stuff, everyone fights with guns, ropes, and even those who have only the ability to breathe fire from their bodies fight well with their bodies…
My physical abilities belonged to the lower class among the Awakened, and I had no confidence in successfully leading the sparring because I had not learned any martial arts in the real world.
The entire morning lecture was replaced with Dalian, so after breakfast, I left the house with only my gym clothes and simple belongings.
It rained all weekend last week, so the cherry blossoms gradually fell, and instead, I slowly moved to school along the roadside trees that were overgrown with fresh leaves.
“Jihoo!”
Just then, I heard a voice calling me from behind.
Hearing her familiar voice, I turned to see Hayul running toward me with a large piece of bread in her mouth.
“Hi. Did you miss breakfast?”
“Ugh, I haven’t had enough since you left yesterday… I’m looking at the time to go to bed after finishing everything, but it’s 4:00 in the morning. So I overslept, hehe.”
I think I did it at least three or four times yesterday, and even that wasn’t enough…
Ha-yul, who smiled brightly and wrapped her arms around my neck, somehow got scared.
“It’s Dalian Day today, have you prepared?”
“Yes~ I have already applied one of what I learned in Professor Kim Jong-cheol’s class.”
Apparently, Ha-yul must have been honing her skills in her spare time even while she wasted every day with me.
Her fire attribute, which she deals with, was in the top rank among all her attributes in terms of her destructive power, so she thought that maybe she would be in the top 10 among the 50 people in the two classes combined.
On the other hand, my ability belongs to ‘mental wave emission’, which is considered to have a fairly low threshold of strength among the telekinesis series, and since I transferred part of my ability to my mobile phone, I can’t do any damage to other awakened people with this half-powered ability. I even wondered if I could.
Although I also practiced an application technique like Ha Yul, but… Will this really work?
As she walked while stroking Ha Yul’s hair, she arrived at the third arena where the Dalian was held.
As if they had come and practiced beforehand, many students were already breathing heavily, occupying their respective spaces.
I also started checking my current condition by stretching in a corner to warm up my body a bit.
Eventually, around 9:30, Professor Sianna, who was in charge of our class, and another rough-looking professor walked towards the students from inside the stadium.
“Today’s practice, as you know, is a one-on-one mock battle. A total of 50 people from Class A and Class K will compete in groups of two, and the members of each group are randomly selected by us. It’s simply victory or defeat. We will be evaluating not only records, but also complex factors such as attitude in battle, level of ability utilization, and combat skills, so please take it seriously.”
“The list of people in each group is written here on a piece of paper I’m holding. The file has been sent to the group chat room for each class, so you can check it with your phone.”
After hearing Professor Shiana’s evaluation criteria, I thought that I should show everything I can show as much as possible even if I lose, but when I checked the file on my phone to confirm the grouping, I couldn’t help but be surprised and stiff when I saw my name written next to my name.
[Group 8: Class A Lee Ji-hoo – Class A Go Ryushin]
Ryu Xin must have just finished checking, and I could feel the intense gaze looking at me from afar.
