Chapter 1252 – 1252. Yggdrasil (8)
The next day.
As I was exploring the dungeon again, I spoke to Hanbom in a low voice.
“Han Bom, let’s go away from now on.”
“… Yes?”
At my words, Han Bom showed a puzzled expression that she had never shown before.
That’s right, he’s been quiet up until now, but he suddenly says something like that, so I can’t help but be embarrassed.
However, Hanbom’s embarrassed appearance quickly disappeared.
Hanbom asked me again with a wary expression.
“Is it because I’m useless?”
Hanbom’s position is healer.
However, I had the skills to wipe out monsters in an instant even without the help of a healer.
And Hanbom found out.
‘Well, it’s much more comfortable to travel alone.’
The fact is that if you have colleagues, there are more things to worry about.
But I could see that Hanbom’s intention was not that way.
‘Wow, unlike Bom, the guard is really strong.’
Hanbom seemed to guess that I said those words with strange intentions.
I wonder if he is creating fear and making people rely on him because he has no fighting ability… It’s a guess.
‘Well, that method isn’t bad either.’
However, I didn’t plan on using that method because it’s not my favorite style.
I shook my head and answered to clear up her misunderstanding.
“No. Since Hanbom was uncomfortable with me, she just thought it would be better to leave.”
“… Yes? What is that…”
I looked back and forth between the path I had taken so far and the path ahead.
“This dungeon is not a type where monsters are regenerated, but rather a type of dungeon where the placement has already been completed.”
Although it was just a guess, I had some confidence.
Monsters sometimes appeared even during breaks, and although monsters did appear in the direction of progress, they never appeared in places where we had already progressed.
“So, Mr. Han Bom, please follow from behind. But don’t fall too far. “I will proceed at a pace that makes me feel popular.”
“No, there’s no need to go that far… And I’m sorry…”
Han Bom seemed to have finally realized that her guess was wrong and began to apologize with an apologetic expression.
For the first time, Han Bom showed her gap.
And I squeezed in without missing that gap.
“Then at least follow my advice when it comes to safety.”
“Yes? Does it depend on what you say?”
I cast her wind magic towards Hanbom, who was on alert again.
In mid-spring, when her entire body was covered in sweat, she was blown away by a gust of magic…
“How…”
She had a mesmerized expression that she hadn’t shown once since coming here.
A spring where I felt the wind as if I was lost in a swamp called happiness.
It was only after some time had passed that she came to her senses and fell backwards.
“I told you not to do this! Even if you don’t have to…”
“Did I tell you? When it comes to safety, please follow my advice.”
“What does this have to do with safety…”
“It matters.”
I spoke to Hanbom as if urging.
“From my standards, this dungeon is definitely easy. But that’s only when a predictable monster appears.”
Instead of glaring at Han Bom, I continued her words with a strong gaze.
“And in that situation, there will be situations where you can’t care about Han Bom.”
“Well, you don’t have to worry about that. At that time, I was also focused…”
I scolded with a slightly accusatory tone.
“You say you can concentrate with your body like that?”
“Tsk…”
Han Bom flinched as she touched her wet clothes and hair.
If she were a normal woman, she would have responded by telling a lie.
But Han Bom is not that kind of girl.
In particular, she had to give up her dream of doing ballet because of her sweat.
According to Min Ha-yeon, she came out herself because she did not want to cause harm despite the member’s dissuasion.
Han Bom was a child who thought reality and family were more important than her pride.
In the end, Hanbom realizes her reality…
“… All right. “I will follow your advice.”
In the end, they decided to accept me.
“I will cooperate until the dungeon is over.”
Of course, it was not completely accepted.
But I smiled, deciding that that was enough.
“Thank you.”
“… “You don’t have to apologize for something like that.”
“Haha, then let’s go.”
“Yes… Sigh!”
I sprayed Hanbom with her wind magic and started going through her dungeon with her.
***
There is a saying that a person’s anger is another part of his personality.
Even though anger is clearly an emotion, it cannot be burned or cooled down at will.
Sometimes, anger erupts like a volcano even when it is not a big deal, and for some reason, the anger that was like an active volcano dies like an extinct volcano.
When other emotions become extreme, it feels like a different personality, but anger is one of the most severe.
Anger that changes personality.
And at this moment, Hanbom was acutely aware that that anger had her own personality.
‘Ha… It shouldn’t be released…’
The anger that had been rising uncontrollably until now.
This was because the anger cooled down in just one day.
And that has nothing to do with one’s will.
Hanbom, who was pressured by Seong Su-ho’s words, eventually decided to follow Seong Su-ho’s words while going through the dungeon.
Of course, following what was said did not mean enduring unfair treatment.
I just couldn’t ignore the words of Seong Su-ho, who was struggling alone.
However, while following his words, Hanbom made a promise.
I won’t forgive the man who dragged my beloved younger siblings into a dirty path…
But that promise…
Shoot!
“Haaa… Huh,~”
It collapsed to pieces due to the magic of Seongsuho.
It wasn’t just wind magic that Seong Su-ho used.
Saaaaa!
“Huh!”
The water magic even washed away all the sticky sweat that the wind couldn’t remove.
At first, she expressed discomfort at the fact that a man was washing her body…
Sigh!
“How about this temperature?”
“Ha! Article… Great…”
The freshness of the water was so strong that even the discomfort was washed away.
Han Bom could never have imagined a situation like this.
Who would have thought that you could shower with such clean, cool water in such a dirty underground waterway.
And that too comfortably with clothes on…
However, even though Han Bom’s discomfort was washed away, and her anger was cooling down, she cried out inwardly.
‘Ha, let’s just do it once and be done with it! Just do it one more time and say you don’t need it anymore!’
However, it was not Han Bom’s will that stopped Seong Su-ho’s magic.
(Okay, that’s it! It’s time to interact!)
“!?”
(Hey! Midspring!!)
It was the voice of midsummer that suddenly hit my eardrums.
Seong Su-ho withdrew his magic with a surprised expression, as if he had heard the voice of Midsummer.
But the direction he was looking was not where Midsummer was.
“Ah, Mr. Yuha.”
“Ah…”
It was the Namgung residence that was invisible to the naked eye in mid-spring.
Seong Su-ho smiled at Han Bom and quietly cast a wind magic spell.
“Ha~”
Then, the water that had covered my body in the middle of spring gradually began to evaporate.
‘And… How did you learn such magic?’
Hanbom felt happy and shivered slightly at the cool feeling caused by the evaporation of water.
Let’s moan like that…
(Hey! Han Bom! What’s wrong with you!)
Midsummer shouted as if inciting a match.
‘Ha… Should I just hang up?’
The momentary happiness was suddenly shattered by the roar of midsummer.
But Han Bom held back because she wanted to know how Min Hayeon and her younger siblings were doing.
“I was just surprised that you suddenly shouted.”
(… Really?)
“Ha… Why would I lie about something like that? And shout moderately. “Because I’m trying to get annoyed.”
(Ah… Okay.)
Midsummer sighed in relief when she saw Hanbom’s grumpy appearance.
Then, he started pouring out stories about Seong Su-ho like a rapid-fire gun.
(Hey, that bastard…)
(Even if you talk to me, I ignore you…)
(Monsters are weak anyway, so move away…)
But there wasn’t a single thing Midreum said that was helpful.
All I’m saying is to be wary of Seongsuho and stay away from him…
Hanbom warned, lowering her voice with an annoyed look on her face.
“Hey, midsummer… Do it in moderation. “I’m talking to my sister and the kids right now.”
(That’s because I’m worried! I’m worried about you…!)
Midsummer did not easily back down despite midspring’s warning.
Fortunately, it was not mid-spring that stopped mid-summer’s cruelty…
(Hey, if you keep doing that, will we just cut off communication?)
It was Min Ha-yeon.
Min Ha-yeon was representing Han Bom’s frustration.
And Min Ha-yeon’s warning…
(… Okay.)
It worked well for Midreum.
(I’ll be quiet… So don’t cut off communication.)
“Ha… Okay.”
It seemed that Midsummer did not want to end up in a situation where exchanges were suddenly cut off like the day before.
‘Phew… Thanks to you, I will survive.’
Thanks to Min Ha-yeon, Han Bom was able to exchange her greetings comfortably.
(Bom, you’re really okay, right?)
Min Ha-yeon was worried about Mid-bom, who was accompanying Seong Su-ho, although not as much as Mid-reum.
Han Bom noticed Seong Su-ho’s gaze and whispered quietly so that he could not hear.
“You say that if you touch it, you will immediately become a Red Summoner? “If that person has thoughts, he won’t be able to touch me.”
(Yes, thank goodness there is such a system.)
Thanks to Han Bom, Min Ha-yeon was able to relieve some of her worries.
But…
(Don’t trust the system too much! That guy doesn’t care about the system and seduces women…!)
Instead of relieving her worries, Han Yeoreum seemed to have a seizure again and started yelling at Han Bom.
Han Bom scrunched up her face and opened her mouth.
“Sister, I will cut off communication now. Hey, mid-autumn, mid-winter.”
(Uh, yes!)
(Tell me…)
Mid-Autumn and Mid-Winter barely opened their mouths while looking at Han Bom, probably because they were scolded by Han Bom.
Han Bom was satisfied with the two younger brothers and opened her mouth.
“Don’t go around alone because that guy is unreliable. Follow him. Got it?”
(Yes… Okay, sister. You too… Follow Suho well.)
(That’s right. Even though he looks strange, his skills are good…)
“Ha… Okay.”
Han Bom tried to shout at her two younger brothers who had put Seong Su-ho’s name in her mouth, but she held back when they closed her mouth.
‘There’s no need to scold me in this situation.’
Han Bom thinks so…
“Then I will cut off communication. Sleep well everyone.”
(Hey, Hanbom! I’m not finished talking yet…)
Midsummer ignored her cries and cut off communication.
“Wow, it looks like my eardrums are going to explode…”
Hanbom covered her right ear and checked the appearance of Seongsu-ho.
“Haha… I’m glad we became friends. Furthermore, I am…”
Seong Su-ho was talking to himself into empty space.
‘… ‘I must have looked like that too, right?’
Han Bom laughed, projecting herself onto Seong Su-ho’s appearance.
But her smile was short-lived…
‘… Let’s sleep.’
She stiffened her expression again and set up the tent.
And as soon as she set it up, she went straight into the tent and lay down with her eyes closed.
Close your eyes like that…
“Oh, I guess I should just go to sleep. Hanbom is also sleeping…”
Seong Su-ho hurriedly began organizing the communications as if he had noticed Hanbom’s notice.
Han Bom pictured Seong Su-ho like that in her head and wondered.
‘… ‘He seems like a good person.’
I knew that he was a good person from the time he saved his younger brothers’ lives.
However, such trust fell to the ground due to the revelations of Midsummer.
Because her trust had grown too much, it fell without hesitation.
But today…
‘Ha… I don’t know. Topper… I wish it were…’
While living with Seong Su-ho, the trust that had fallen to the ground was able to be brought back to the ground.
It was a strange thing.
When I fell, it felt like I was falling on my own, but when I pulled myself up, it felt as if Hanbom’s instinct was pulling me up.
Sung Su-ho’s good work certainly played a role in raising the bar.
But…
‘What can I say… I felt like I would regret it if I continued like this.’
It was clearly Hanbom himself who pulled it up.
Han Bom thought carefully about why he felt that way, but in the end he couldn’t find an answer.
‘Ha… I don’t even know why I’m like this.’
Han Bom sighed inwardly, opened her eyes, and turned her head toward the place where Seongsu Lake might be.
After finishing the conversation with Namgung Yuha, Seong Su-ho began to prepare something.
And after some time…
‘Huh?’
I started lying on the floor.
Hanbom wondered if she had seen something wrong, so she opened the tent door and carefully checked for Seongsuho.
Seong Su-ho…
‘What? Is that a sleeping bag?’
I was digging into a sleeping bag on the floor, not a tent.
“Excuse me… What are you doing?”
“Ah…”
Seong Su-ho, who was getting into his sleeping bag, raised his head and smiled bitterly.
“I’m going to sleep now.”
“I know that… Why don’t you set up a tent and sleep there? .”
“Oh, that’s…”
Seong Su-ho turned his head, checked his surroundings, and explained the reason.
“If you are in a tent, you may become insensitive to noise. “I sleep like this, so I can hear clearly.”
“Ah…”
Only after hearing Seong Su-ho’s words did Han Bom realize that she had made a big mistake.
‘First… Let’s solve it through conversation.’
Han Bom has been caught up in her prejudices due to her male-hating nature and Han Yeoreum’s revelations.
Due to her preconceptions, she deleted the option of having a conversation with Seong Su-ho.
Of course, if Han Yeo-reum had heard this, she would have spewed out her profanity with the force of bursting Han Bom’s eardrums…
‘It’s okay. There’s no way I’m going to get over it like the kids… First, let’s find out what kind of person he is through conversation.’
Han Bom thinks so…
“I… If it’s okay, can we talk for a moment?”
She cautiously requested a conversation with Seong Su-ho.
Seong Su-ho immediately smiled at Han Bom’s request and nodded her head.
“Oh, of course. Before that…”
Seong Su-ho began to whisper and talk into the air.
Through Seong Su-ho’s appearance, it was clear that Namgung Yu-ha had not stopped interacting with the woman.
‘And… She is amazing that woman too. I think it would be uncomfortable if a man kept looking at me… They just allow it.’
While Han Bom was admiring, Seong Su-ho finished talking to himself…
“I have now disconnected the AC connection. “Please speak.”
“Yes, I have something to ask you, but…”
I started a conversation with Hanbom.
.
.
The conversation between Han Bom and Seong Su-ho lasted longer than expected.
Han Bom immediately asked about her relationship with her two younger sisters, and Seong Su-ho answered honestly.
Seong Su-ho’s answer is…
“You force yourself to do it, and you buy yourself with points…” That can’t be possible.”
It was completely different from what Midoreum said.
“Well, then… How can I… With my younger siblings? .”
“First of all, in the case of Mr. Winter, we were sparring…”
Seong Su-ho answered Han Bom’s question with sincerity.
While sparring with Midwinter, they became close friends, and through that relationship, they developed into loving each other.
“Gaeul must have been sad to see us sleeping on the street, so she asked us to stay in the same room…”
And while staying in the same room as Han Ga-eul, we became close friends and that’s how we developed a relationship.
I was also able to hear an explanation for selling my body for points.
‘Mid-autumn… Because you fall for a man, he gives you everything, including his liver and gallbladder.’
Han Bom even laughed as she recalled Han Ga Eul’s performance in a situational drama requested by Seong Soo Ho.
“I didn’t know you had such a misunderstanding. How… Has the misunderstanding been resolved?”
“…”
So, I heard all the explanation from Seong Su-ho.
If we look at each case individually, there was no sign of a problem.
As we saw each other often, affection developed, and we fell in love.
However, if there is a problem…
‘Ha… It’s said that it was done in the end.’
It was true that Seong Soo-ho had sex with his two younger brothers at the same time.
He was clearly a good being in human terms.
But…
‘As a man…’
The problem was that as a man, he was the worst person.
However, rather than taking this situation seriously, Hanbom began to reflect.
‘For some reason… I thought something was strange when he scolded me.’
When I was scolded, I was so emotional that I didn’t think to listen to the situation.
Han Bom nodded, regretting not asking about the situation.
***
Han Bom sighed and nodded her head.
“First… The misunderstanding has been resolved. But… Still, please keep your distance from the kids for a while.”
Although they are still wary of me, I could see that their distrust of me had largely disappeared.
“I understand.”
“Thank you for your understanding. With the kids… After I talked some more…”
Han Bom said that and started to stand up from his seat.
Just looking at it, it looked like he was about to finish the conversation.
But I had no intention of ending the conversation here.
‘Let’s start slowly.’
While thinking that, I looked at Han Bom trying to get up and made a sad voice.
“Oh, then I guess I’ll have to postpone that until later.”
“Postponing? “What?”
“Haha, that’s… I’m an alchemist. But my younger brothers were looking for a specific medicine.”
“… Medicine? What kind of medicine is it?”
Han Bom showed a reluctant expression at the expression “Medicine.”
But I saw that reluctant expression on her face…
“Ah… It’s a drug that enlarges body parts…”
“… Yes?”
I was able to make it look like a fish biting the bait.
