Chapter 13 – 6. Winter – True Ending(3)
In any case, he was nominally the benefactor of his daughter, who should be treated, but just standing in the kitchen with him must have been a burden.
Knowing that, she hurriedly cut the ingredients handed over from Winter and handed them to her mother.
“Well, you’re good at it.”
“Yeah, I’ve been living on my own for several years…”
“…Do you live at home alone?”
Winter answered that question.
Nice assist.
“When Taeyang was young, he was taken to an orphanage, Mom.”
“Ah…”
It feels like the atmosphere has become even more awkward since Winter says I’m an orphan, but I don’t really care.
Really.
Rather, she thinks that she is fortunate to be able to receive sympathy votes from adults like her.
Yes, my real parents are alive and well in the other world, not in this world.
This body, that is to say, Golden Taeyang is an orphan in the setting, but I was not an orphan.
‘Well, the situation didn’t suit me, so I became independent from home at a younger age than others.’
Cooking skills were something I learned from living alone.
However, from her point of view, it seems that she couldn’t help but worry.
“That… I’m sorry if I reminded you of bad memories.”
“No, mother. I’ve been alone since childhood without any bad memories… I’m used to these kinds of stories.”
“So, so? Then how about now…?”
“I was recently recognized for my talent as a hunter, so I left the nursery school and live in a dormitory supported by the state.”
It was not a brief interrogation, but a time of interrogation.
Apparently, from her point of view, she probably needed a little more information about the bully, a man who seemed to have an unusual relationship with her daughter.
I also took it as a rare opportunity to instill in her a good impression of me, and answered her wholeheartedly.
“Then now…”
“This time, I entered the academy with support from the state…”
“Oh, the future is pretty…”
“You’re the best among your peers…”
“The one who saved my daughter…”
“As an aspiring hunter, I took it for granted…”
She asked a lot of questions, and I just dutifully repeated only the standard answers.
The conversation that started like that is a time to get to know each other differently from before, when we were wary of the first greeting…
Fortunately, it seems to have met her criteria.
After a short conversation, the mother let out a sigh of lamentation for some reason.
“Ha, yes. But he’s the benefactor who saved my daughter, so I can’t treat him like this… But the image I had in mind was completely different… I didn’t realize it… That, you know? It seems a little…”
She said it again, but now that she is tanned blonde, and her body is full of useless protein, it is an appearance that can be dangerous to anyone who sees me for the first time.
It’s not a blonde tanning handsome boy, it’s literally a bully that’s close to a bully!
“I understand, Mother. I am often misunderstood because of the way I am now.”
I also want to get out of this situation as soon as possible. But what if it doesn’t work?
Until you reach the end of the story, you will live like this.
Just then, Winter spoke on his back.
“What about our Taeyang? In my eyes, he’s reliable and cool…”
Aigoo, bitch.
That sounds so comforting.
Food.
The reason why the corners of her mouth kept going up was because of the soft, warm warmth of her body that she could feel from her back.
It’s not that I’m really comforted.
I looked at her sly face, which had come right next to mine, with an expression of absurdity.
But at that moment, my mother’s hand naturally went behind her back and mine.
It was obvious what her hands would do next.
Match-!
“Evil!”
Mother, nice shot!
That’s a nice back smash, draw it.
In my ears, I hear a slightly tearing voice that is different from the pretty voice I usually hear.
As she was hanging from my back, her shock was halved, but the spiciness in her hand was no joke.
It smells like perfume after a long time.
My back stiffened – and I stood up straight.
‘I was beaten like that by my mother every time I had an accident…’
“Ah, Mom. Why did you…”
“Oh, you bitch. I can’t live because of you, Jeungmal. Hey, um… Uh… Did you say your name was Taeyang?”
“Yes, it is. Mother.”
“Yeah, I should have given you a word about Taeyang’s appearance before he brought me in! Do you know how frightened I was when Taeyang and you came in alone?”
If you gave me a word, you could have prepared your heart!
Winter shouted proudly at Mother’s words, which had the meaning of ──.
“Mom! You can’t judge people by their appearance!”
“…”
“…”
No, what is the theory here?
This time it was really dumb.
Me and her mother looked at her with her expression as her brain stopped for a second.
‘By the way, didn’t Winter say that I was awkward at first, too?’
But now what…
She meets her eyes with me and sticks out her tongue in her playful way as if she’s pretending, heh- she laughs.
It’s cute too.
Yes, that’s right
‘It’s fine as long as it’s cute.’
If it’s my girl’s cuteness, such shamelessness is forgiven.
Rather, it is its charm.
Match-!
“Evil!”
However, no matter how much it was, the cuteness didn’t work only for my mother.
Over there, ma’am.
Forgive me for that…
“Ahh! Ehh! You burner! I! Can’t live! Testimony!”
Match-! Match-! Poo-!
“Oops! Mom-! It hurts-! Stop now!”
In the end, her mother, who had been tearing her eyes as if watching a tomboy who couldn’t stop the winter running away from her room because she couldn’t stand her back smashing, suddenly lowered her head halfway to me.
“…Yes, student Taeyang. Anyway, thank you so much for saving our winter.”
I said, shaking my hand as if it was no big deal to him.
“Ah, yes. No, mother. It was a coincidence, but I think it was fortunate that I was able to save Winter.”
And from then on, the relaxed atmosphere seemed to continue.
…Yeah, it seems like her mother has taken some of her preconceived notions off.
I thought that if I continued like this, I could build up some level of trust that had hit rock bottom because of my appearance.
But sometimes the timing of life is amazing…
Tiroling~
“Daddy is here.”
“Dad! Mom…!”
Hearing the sound of the front door opening, he thought of Winter as he ran out of the room again.
It seems that the truly tiring work has just begun.
6.
“I’ll be preparing dinner, so let’s have a chat with the men.”
It was the first thing her father said, saying that dinner was not yet served, and leaving behind her mother, who went back into the kitchen, that the two men had something to say, and called her to the private library, like you would only see in a drama.
“So hey, what’s the sign of our winter?”
──The winter that clung to him was also pushed away.
I was alone with her father.
Anyway, the question you ask from the beginning is quite straightforward.
Uh… So that’s…
How far do you know?
‘It’s definitely winter…’
She said she didn’t say much, but contrary to what she said, the atmosphere became like a new groom having a private meeting with his father-in-law before marriage.
An uncomfortable silence hovered between us.
“Haa… Don’t look at me and say it comfortably. I know what my daughter has been like for a few days.”
Her father was a sharp-looking handsome man.
According to the description mentioned once in the novel, it is said that it is a management position of a fairly popular guild, but the details are not clear, so I am not sure.
Anyway, this is also a lazy writer’s problem.
Anyway, her father, sitting on a luxurious sofa and asking questions, didn’t seem to care much about my appearance.
‘Is it because it’s a job that deals with a lot of people?’
Hey, when it comes to her father, my appearance might not be so special.
Thanks to that, I was able to speak comfortably to some extent.
It would be enough to match what she said in moderation.
“First of all, it’s confirmed that we have feelings for each other, but it’s a bit similar when we’re dating.”
“Hmm, similar group? If you’re lethargic or not, vaguely, what else is that?”
He laughed lightly at what I said, but what is it?
Where did I get such a reaction from what I said?
However, before I had time to turn my head to the other side, he was talking nonstop.
In the end, I can only focus on what he has to say right now.
“Well, yes. That aside. Then how well do you know our winter?”
Um…Well?
Like being the main heroine of the original work and having a lot of obsession?
However, that obsession had a strong self-blaming aspect rather than restraining the other person.
In a word, if yandere feels like this, winter should feel like this.
Yandere-〉 You who don’t love me don’t deserve to live in this world.
Midwinter-〉 If you don’t love me, I don’t deserve to live in this world.
‘Thanks to that, there were so many scenes where the main character cared about Winter even while meeting this woman.’
Winter’s father spoke in a somewhat vague, regretful voice, as if recalling the past, not the present.
“My winter is a very scarred child. He awakened his great traits at a young age, to the point that at one point, he and my wife feared. I think I lost a lot of friends around me at that time. I should have treated you well then… “
Oh, I know this.
That’s why I forgot how to deal with the characteristics that were no different from the limbs of the Awoken.
Even as I grow older, I pay attention to others, have a lot of charms, and act like a child are the aftermath of the memories of my parents when they were afraid of me.
He is appealing with his entire body saying, “I am so harmless~ So don’t be afraid.”
‘Nevertheless, he was thirsty for love and a bit mentally unstable who would do anything to receive someone’s warmth.
I thought about what the current me and the main character of 《Became the main character in an academy novel》, which she threw down her body for herself, mean to her.
‘It’s heavy…’
It’s a story that makes me determined to do better because I didn’t think I was a little careful.
She is a woman who gets to know the inside story in detail and makes you want to treat her well as she gets closer.
Anyway, it took a considerable amount of time for her to rehabilitate and grow after she resolutely sealed her abilities and entered her academy.
… And she does.
As for why I say it like I heard it somewhere, it was because it was set up like that, and what I read was a rice cake, so there was no heavy story.
If you got stuck, any conflict was resolved with a ‘heheh’, well…
“Maybe that’s why she’s quite obsessed with people she thought were hers. Her daughter had a guy like that just a while ago.”
Speaking of the main character…
I didn’t know that such a secret story was hidden between the main character and her.
Because her heroine was busy fucking her, who followed her well.
Even the somewhat harsh behavior was well received by her.
…I swear again, I will do better than that.
“Anyway, she seems to have taken good care of her daughter, who was bullied since childhood. Of course, I didn’t expect her to run away like that at the moment she really needed help. Tsk.”
Uh…
Hmm…
‘I don’t know how many times I’ve done it already, but I’m sorry for unintentionally turning it into trash in various places? Heroine.’
Her father clicked her tongue briefly, saying ‘I misunderstood the person’.
“My name is Kim Taeyang, after being recognized for my promise as a high-ranking hunter a few years ago, I left the nursery school and am living in a lodging provided by the country. I recently moved here to enter the academy. Is that right? I got a tan on it.”
“Yes, Father.”
What?
Am I being investigated now?
‘This is a bit…’
He even knew when I had dyed my tan.
I didn’t know either…
‘But then why the hell did you tan?’
In a new environment, with a new mindset.
What is that feeling?
Seeing my confused expression, he straightened up again and said,
“No need to be surprised. In order to scout talented people, we are in the process of figuring out the brief personal details of some of the students entering the academy. You who are receiving support have nothing to say.”
Oh, that’s it again
Taeyang Kim is a person who is trying to get him into the academy by giving him benefits from the state, but most guilds have information about these people in their hands.
I nodded silently and he continued talking.
