Chapter 3 – I’m Scheming #2
The next day, required major classes.
Upon entering the classroom, I noticed that Sehwa’s expression was not good.
You must have heard Yoo Seung-hyun’s circumstances, right?
After a bright greeting with my classmates, I handed Sehwa banana milk.
“Do you want a drink? You don’t look good.”
“Uh… Huh?”
Sehwa shook his shoulders and turned his head.
When she saw me, her expression softened a little.
“When did you come?”
“Just now. What are you thinking…”
– Ohhh!
I couldn’t finish talking.
It was because my classmates exclaimed in a playful voice when they saw me handing out banana milk to Sehwa.
If Sae-hwa accepts her milk here, she will be teased too.
She sees her bewildered.
Shrugging her shoulders, I slinked the milk to the male mate who could be said to be closest to yesterday.
The motive who caught it well tore off the shell and said.
“What, are you giving it to me because you’re embarrassed?”
“Your voice is the loudest, so I gave it to you to be quiet.”
“Dogs benefit? Thank you!”
He grinned and gulped down the milk.
I sat down looking for an empty seat with a sorry look at Sehwa.
A little away from Sehwa.
I took out the book before class and took out my cell phone.
And I sent a text message to Sehwa’s number I got yesterday.
[Did you go in well yesterday?]
Saehwa, who confirmed her message, turned her head sideways.
Then she sent a reply.
[No. It’s the absolute worst.]
I called for joy in my heart.
I thought you would send a short answer with [Yes] Or [No], But to tell you how you feel.
I tried my best to hide my feelings and fiddled with my phone again.
[Is it because I drank too much alcohol?]
[I didn’t even drink half a bottle of soju yesterday, did I? How about you? It’s okay?]
[What?]
[Are you okay?]
[I was a little uncomfortable until the morning, but after eating hangover soup and going to school, it got better. It was delicious.]
[I want to eat hangover soup too…]
Sehwa, don’t talk cutely.
You are a savior who will become a champion of justice.
So show some dignity.
But it’s cute
[You can eat it. Shall we go to lunch together?]
[He said he ate hangover soup.]
[What if I eat it again? There’s a Haejangguk restaurant in a corner, so let’s go with our classmates. The kids didn’t seem to know there was a restaurant here. It was all the guys who went to work.]
[Look ahead.]
You didn’t answer and looked straight ahead.
I did as Sehwa said.
And I couldn’t hide my laughter.
What she was sending her ok sign over her shoulder.
**
Lunch time after many classes.
At the appointed time, the five people I met at the back door moved to the Haejangguk restaurant according to my guidance.
And there, I almost ate the hangover soup.
“It’s big… I think I’m going to live a little now.”
The expression that the main sweet potato of the male motive went down.
He asked me while cleaning his teeth with a toothpick on the table.
“How do you know a place like this?”
“I also found it by chance today. Are you fine?”
“It’s not just okay, it’s fucking okay? It seems to come often in the future. The price is good too.”
“Let’s keep it a secret except for future science and first year students. I hate being famous here.”
“Oh… The sense of belonging… Isn’t that bad?”
Other motives are also satisfied.
In fact, I don’t care about their expressions, but I want Sehwa to be satisfied.
When a lot of people gather, there are people who want to lead.
One of my classmates asked for money to pay by card.
And I noticed that Saehwa hesitated for a moment as she took the money out of her wallet.
‘Um… Did Yoo Seung-hyun ask for money? No, I’m not that kind of guy…’
Let’s dig it up later
My classmates asked me to go to a cafe to see if they wanted to drink coffee or chat.
But I didn’t mean to.
“I’m going to take a walk to digest it. There is a small mountain behind the university. I want to go there once.”
“Ah… Don’t you know that if one person doesn’t go, they’ll be kicked out?”
The whining of one motive.
After I apologized, saying I was sorry, I headed to the mountain behind the school without looking back.
I am walking along a quiet promenade, checking my plans for the future, when I hear a pretty voice from behind.
“Jihyeok!”
It was Sehwa’s voice.
To be honest, I didn’t expect it to come this far… Has it already reached this level?
I don’t know what it was, but it was a good thing.
It was a chance for her to get a little closer to her and find out what happened to the two of them.
“Why are you here?”
“Oh, I want to go for a walk too. My aunt at the Haejangguk restaurant gave me so much rice that I feel like my stomach will burst.”
“Okay? So what… Let’s go together.”
When Sehwa came in line with me, I asked.
“What about the other kids?”
“Men do self-lectures and run PC rooms. Girls go to cafes.”
“Didn’t you go to the cafe?”
“I don’t really have any thoughts of wanting to drink anything.”
As you can see, I’m not going there to save money.
I pretended to be calm and nodded and took out a latte from my bag.
It was the coffee I bought to drink before coming to the back mountain.
I handed this to Sehwa.
“Do you want a drink?”
“It’s okay. Don’t you think you want to drink?”
“Your voice cracks, but you can’t think… Just drink. I drank enough water earlier.”
Saehwa hesitated, then she got a latte.
“Thank you. I’ll buy you the same one later.”
“Done. Are you feeling any better anyway?”
“Mood?”
“It was like that this morning. I feel bad.”
“Ah… That…”
Sehwa hesitated for a moment.
It seems to be measuring as much as it is serious.
I reassured her with her comfortable smile.
“You are so nice that it is Tal. If you don’t want to talk, you don’t have to.”
“Nope. It’s not particularly serious… Can I ask you something?”
“Yes, ask.”
“What would you do if the person you love went through something big, and you are the one responsible?”
Aha, that’s a rough estimate.
Apparently, Yoo Seung-hyun explained the matter to Se-hwa and told her not to worry because I will take care of it.
However, Sehwa, who loves Yoo Seung-hyun very much, would have asked to pay it back together or to sue him for insurance fraud.
So, I guess I should tell you something Sehwa would like to hear.
“Um… If I had been through that or if I had heard about it from someone I loved, I would have lost it.”
“Is not it? Right?”
“At least I am.”
“So do i.”
“See, I had a fight with my boyfriend about an accident. Right?”
Sehwa flinched.
She asked with a surprised look.
“How did you know?”
“Your boyfriend had an accident, you went to see him, and today you are in the worst mood. That’s pretty much the answer. I didn’t know it would fit, but… I wonder if I should become a shaman.”
Sehwa giggled and took a sip of the latte.
Then she let out a deep sigh.
“Haa… I’m really worried. It’s dark ahead. It just feels like everything is blocked.”
She was the one who revealed her inner feelings without even realizing it.
The appearance of Sehwa before awakening was always fresh.
A guy like this is Tyrart… No, he gets me into trouble every time.
“First of all, the first thing to do is to consult a lawyer. If it’s an insurance scam, we’ll have to figure it out somehow, won’t we?”
“It is, but…”
Don’t have money I know.
So let me help you.
That’s why I made up this scheming.
And rest assured, I don’t mean to completely ruin Yoo Seung-hyun’s life.
I’m going to screw it up just enough to spend very little time with you.
I took out a business card holder from my pocket and rummaged through it.
As business cards of all kinds of designs poured out, Sehwa opened her eyes wide.
Looking at one of them, I handed Sehwa a business card and said.
“Go to this person.”
Saehwa checked the contents of the card and muttered.
“Byeon… Hosah?”
“I was the exclusive lawyer for my parents’ company, but after they passed away, I opened my own office. Go there once with your boyfriend. I will talk to you so that you can do the consultation for free.”
“Ji… Jihyeok, this is too burdensome…”
“I need to help my boyfriend. Is not it?”
Sehwa, who was about to return the business card, hardened her eyes at my words.
I continued.
“If anything happens to me instead, help me.”
“What ability do I have…”
“I think you underestimate yourself too much. Anyway… Do you want to? Will you stop?”
“… I will. Thank you so much.”
I laughed inwardly.
Marcella should have finished all her work by now.
Saehwa will meet my aide disguised as an intelligent lawyer.
**
Antarctic Tyrat’s base.
“Why would I do something so trivial… Can’t I just kill him? Demon King is really… What are you thinking…”
Marcella, expressing her displeasure, tossed her suit.
You should appear now.
“You must be quite dissatisfied, Marcella.”
“Ugh! Demon King!”
Startled, she collapses flat on the floor.
The tail around her waist is all over the place, and her long ears have become commonplace.
A quick glance before she lay down revealed that her fangs had also disappeared and she had become completely human.
If this is possible…
But since you’ve been talking behind your back, it’s cancelled, bitch.
“I was going to give you a prize, but I guess I have to cancel it.”
“Thought… Sang…?”
“I was going to do that, but…”
As I walked leisurely and sat down on a chair, Marcella crawled up and rubbed her head against my feet.
“Em… Demon King… What’s the prize…?”
“Well, I wonder what it was. I was shocked to hear what you said just now, and my memory is gone. What did he say… Little things? Can’t I just kill him?”
“Demon King… I’m sorry…”
Marcella’s humanoid figure with a sullen expression was very cute.
Well, it was cute to make a humming noise in the game.
I modified the monsters to crazy levels and made me grind my teeth.
“Report.”
At those words, Marcella slowly stood up.
Then it changed back to its original form.
Both fangs fell out long, and dark wings sprouted from the back.
As the missing tail grew longer, the tip became sharper.
Fingernails get longer and sharper.
Anyone could see that she was a devil or a succubus. That was Marcella’s real face.
She turned the monitor towards me and manipulated the screen.
Then, in the middle of the well-appointed lawyer’s office, I saw three people sitting at a round table.
The disguised Marcella, the always pretty Sehwa, and lastly Hogu Yoo Seung-hyun.
I couldn’t say he was handsome, but he had a naive face that anyone would be attracted to.
With a worried look on his face, he weakly responded to Marcella’s explanation.
Ugh… You bastard.
Why did you think that was me? Just thinking about the past makes me angry.
Through long hours of counseling, Marcella chose only the words Yoo Seung-hyun and Se-hwa did not want to hear.
This cannot be solved without evidence, there is no recording, and no copy of the registration documents, so it is a perfect one.
With these words, the faces of the two gradually fell into a pit of despair.
However, in the end, I tried to give you a glimmer of hope.
– You said you were fired, right? Still, there may still be some documents left, so I’ll contact the company for a closer look.
At those words, Yoo Seung-hyun and Se-hwa’s faces brighten a little.
-Because Song Ji-hyeok asked for a special request… I have to work hard too. Don’t be too bummed out.
Even mentioning me at the end.
Yoo Seung-hyun asks Sae-hwa to meet Song Ji-hyeok when the time is right.
Looks like he wants to say thank you.
Sehwa nodded with a bright face, and the two of them thanked Marcella several times before leaving.
After seeing the screen, I burst out laughing.
Then Marcella’s face brightened.
“Very good. Very good.”
“Really?”
“Nice job, Marcella.”
“Thank you… Thank you, Demon King.”
“Listen, I’ll tell you what I’m aiming for from now on.”
I told Marcella all my purposes today.
A long-term plan to wield mighty Beast Slayers with their arms and legs.
Marcella, who heard everything, clapped the seals.
“As expected… You are the Demon King! I, Marcella, will work hard so that I can help the Demon King’s defeat!”
Thank you for your understanding.
Stop whining now.
My heart breaks when you gossip. It’s scary!
“What company did Yoo Seung-hyun work for? Can you control it the way you want?”
“Sure. Only people from small and medium-sized businesses can sleep. If anything, send Amon to hypnotize everyone…”
“You are going too far. Don’t mess around and do this. At first…”
I gave Marcella some guidelines for her future.
Thanks to Marcella and me, Yoo Seung-hyun is relieved.
But not a complete solution.
If that happens, Yoo Seung-hyun will be broken for a few months and he will have to work, but at that time he thought of approaching him.
Give me a very good job
A job that will be in big trouble if Sehwa gets caught.
