Chapter 207 – Association (2)
It’s a broadcast
I thought for a second.
Before summer vacation, at a festival at the end of the first semester, singing and dressing as a girl had spread on the Internet.
From that point on, my photos spread stealthily in the shadows. That’s why a lot of people recognized me in Japan.
It was just one video uploaded on tube.
‘Should I refuse this?’
Being famous has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages. People pay attention to every single action I take, so I can’t do anything secret.
‘If it’s a good thing.’
Once I show the world how strong I am. That way, you can easily do it easily when negotiating.
I was troubled. Whether I am strong or weak
‘Perhaps my current strength is worth playing with the top rank.’
Assuming that the opponent is a demon and equipped with a holy sword.
Thought quickly.
‘Let’s not do it.’
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can.”
“Yes? Then there is nothing you can do.”
Han Ga-in coolly asked the other kids.
“Oh, how are the new friends? You can move to the original department today, but if this sister uses her raw, there will be no problem.”
“I don’t like selling my face either…”
Yoon Seung-ha walked towards me and said.
“I can’t help it~. Then newbie, I’ll go first. Look there.”
Han Ga-in waved his hand and went out of the building.
“Kid, then shall we go to the department?”
“Yeah. But where are Gianna Seungha and Harin going?”
“Well…”
Red and blue Odd Eye.
Kim Eun-jung looked at the other children with the Taegeuk-an.
“Everybody is great. There won’t be any problem if we put it into practice right away.”
Kim Eun-jung said with a surprised expression.
“And there’s the silver-haired kid… I might get a higher rank sooner or later.”
Kim Eun-jung looked at Yoon Seung-ha and said.
“Go to the department first. Is there any place you want to see or go to?”
“I want to go out with Siu.”
Yoon Seung-ha sneaked up next to me and said.
“Oh.”
I saw a woman getting down the stairs. She is an elegant woman wearing a kimono.
“The famous comrades in Korea are like that.”
“… Comrades, indeed.”
As Kim Eun-jung smiled contentedly, she looked at me and Yoon Seung-ha.
… I don’t think that’s the word Kim Eun-jung thinks of?
“Hello, I’m Yukina Yoshimura and I’m a member of Eunjung Kim’s team.”
Yukina elegantly lowered her head and said.
“Is everyone here to experience the association today?”
“Yes. This is Yoon Seung. And Lee Ji-ah and Kim Harin.”
“Ah, Mr. Yoon Seung-ha knows. He is famous as a spirit prince in Korea.”
“… Are you the spirit prince?”
“Yes. Ah, it’s a little unfamiliar nickname in Korea, right? We, Japan, like that nickname. Be it a prince or a princess. For reference, Siwoo Lee is a smiling princess.”
Why me… ?
No, more than that, what the hell is a smiling princess talking about? I looked at Yukina with a puzzled face.
“Japanese kids have a bit of an idiosyncratic temperament. If there are kids with good faces, I call them princes and see them. Maybe that’s why little kids got that nickname.”
“But why is Princess Siu… Ah.”
Yoon Seung-ha exclaimed softly.
“Then let’s start slowly. But little ones Aren’t you guys too attached?”
Kim Eun-jung muttered in a puzzled tone.
“Therefore… Um, is this like that, comrade?”
Yoon Seung-ha smiled and put his arm around my shoulder. It was his shoulder. Subtly blushing cheeks.
“…”
Lee Ji-ah and Kim Ha-rin, who knew that Yoon Seung-ha was a cross-dressing woman, just stared blankly at her with her mouth open.
“Oh my gosh.”
As Yukina carefully covered her mouth, she looked at me and Yoon Seung-ha.
With her eyes twinkling.
So even if it’s not like that.
***
We moved up the association.
“Checking the group of monsters in the former North Korean side of South Hamgyong Province! Presumed to be a migratory strain!”
“When is it now, do you use the word old North Korea? Who are the heroes that can go to support there? Save at least two people in the middle section and ten people in the lower section, and prioritize the safety of the citizens!”
“The rock giant dungeon has been confirmed on the Suwon side!”
“The guild contacted me and told me to roughly clear it! Wait, come to think of it, it was on the Changchun Guild side, right? Request it there!”
The association was abuzz.
This is because the association is working hard to protect the safety of citizens, from North Korea to a unified Korea.
“Is it more noisy than I thought?”
“Yes, the frequency of appearances of monsters and demons has become very high these days. The Association is also trying to recruit people, but since we have to filter out the demons, it took a while, so it ended like this.”
Yukina said with a smile.
“If you would like to join the association right away, I can tell you. You guys are students… Still, as Kim Eun-jung acknowledged, she must be a very talented person.”
“Isn’t it difficult to be a silver-haired kid? He is coveted by other guilds, but we might fall apart because we brought Siwoo Lee.”
A frivolous male voice.
A blonde man in a suit appeared. He looked frivolous because of the expression on his face, even though he was dressed in a well-groomed-looking suit.
“Hi guys. My name is Jeong Han-seok, a member of the association scout. I wish you well.”
He was a man who gave a strange feeling to his single, single smile. I think I saw it somewhere.
‘Jeonghanseo?’
It had a similar appearance to Jeonghanseo. She was easily recognizable because of her dull blonde hair. Is it a brother
“Why am I in the scout?”
“I’m very interested in silver-haired friends, but I’m also interested in women.”
“Sorry. I have a boyfriend~.”
Lee Ji-ah said with a smile.
“I have a boyfriend too.”
Harin Kim muttered in a haughty tone and approached me. Then, she gently crossed her arms.
“Um, I’m not interested in that. If you are interested in working for the association, please contact us here… It would be unreasonable to ask for it.”
When Lee Ji-ah and Kim Ha-rin looked at each other with calm eyes, Jeong Han-seok gave up.
“Then, if you are interested in the association later, just tell me. I’ll treat you right away with the best conditions. It’s too much money, but it’s an association that can give you power.”
Jeong Han-seok greets awkwardly and disappears.
“Then let’s go to the department in charge.”
“Come to think of it, what is Kim Eun-jung in charge of?”
Yoon Seung-ha asked.
“We are in a disaster response department. Han Ga-in and Kim Eun-jung both have powers that can be counted in the association. I don’t go out unless it’s really dangerous. Just in case.”
“What if?”
“Well. There are a lot of people who have a bad view of the Mine Association. Not only in mines, but also in guilds.”
“Ah, I heard you. There are many people who think that the association manages the dungeons unfairly.”
“But I can’t help it. In the past, until the regressor appeared, the atmosphere was so bad that everyone started a war over a dungeon. That’s why the regressor created the association and controlled the guilds.”
As we talked like that, we arrived at the office in charge before we knew it.
“Then, is there anything you would like to drink before the meeting?”
“I’ll ask for coffee. With Iced Americano.”
“Then I’ll beg you too.”
“I also have an iced Americano!”
“What I always eat.”
Kim Eun-jung crossed her arms and said.
“Put chocolate on the hot chocolate you always eat, and top it with whipped cream, right?”
“…”
Kim Eun-jung quietly nodded her head. Seeing that her cheeks were strangely red, she must have been embarrassed.
“Then let’s all sit down first. The meeting is held via video connection.”
At Kim Eun-jung’s words, we each took our seats. Yoon Seung-ha is on my left. Lee Ji-ah tried to take a seat to my right, but Kim Eun-jung cut in the middle.
“Kids. I will teach you how to do it.”
In a strangely excited voice, Eunjung Kim clicked on one of her icons on her computer screen.
“First, press this. Then it automatically connects to the video chat.”
Kim Eun-jung said that, but only a black screen came out.
“… ?”
“Kuhm.”
Yukina clears her throat and serves an iced Americano in front of me, then grabs the mouse from the side and clicks the [Association Meeting] Written on the right channel.
“Ah…”
Kim Eun-jung let out her strange exclamation.
Then, a place like a conference room appeared on the screen.
“Now the meeting begins. Let everyone take a good look.”
However, as Kim Eun-jung said, the meeting did not start.
“Emergencies! Emergencies! It is said that a B-class gate has appeared in the middle of Gangnam, Seoul!”
“What?!”
“By gate analysis, the name is said to be the nest of the thunderbird!”
“Among the prize ranks currently staying in the association, how many people can be in charge of the brainwashing team?”
“Han Ga-in and Kim Eun-jung!”
“Kim Eun-jung can’t! It takes at least 3 hours to attack the gate once!”
It became noisy and noisy here and there.
“This is an emergency. We usually take care of it here, but since Han Ga-in isn’t here right now, it might take a while.”
“Kid. Is it possible?”
Kim Eun-jung saw me.
“Yes, I think I will be alone.”
“Then go see the silver-haired kid over there.”
“Then I’ll come back before this Americano ice melts.”
At my words, Eunjung Kim smiled.
