Chapter 335 – Lucy’s Return
Seo Joo-hwan shouted with his happy heart.
“Lucy! Are you completely back? Aren’t they going away now?”
He lifted his head slightly and looked up at the edge of the sky. As if Lucy was there.
“Lucy, come on, talk to me.”
He asked in frustration.
Since he said, “I’ve been back,” It won’t be a temporary return like before. Nevertheless, he asked again if he might disappear again, and a soft voice sounded as if telling him to calm down.
[Yes, Master. Lucy is now fully back. I will not leave my master’s side any longer.]
“Really?”
[Sure. Lucy doesn’t lie to her master her. In fact, she has been watching all this time?]
“Ha ha, yes. Lucy, you said you were always by my side.”
He said that he could not come out of the water of the system, but he was always watching.
Lucy smiles and calls him.
[Rather than that, Master.]
“Yes?”
[I wonder if it would be better to change seats for now.]
“Uh?”
[Look around.]
Seo Joo-hwan lowered his head, which he had been holding up slightly, and looked around.
“Ah.”
He is at the entrance of the airport.
The attention of many people going to and from the airport was focused on him. His appearance His talking to the air must have looked like a madman at first glance.
*
Seo Joo-hwan moved to a cafe in the airport. As planned, he would have already been on his way home, but he wanted to talk to Lucy, who had suddenly returned.
“One Iced Americano.”
“Yes, I’ll call you A-5.”
“Thank you.”
Seo Joo-hwan took the freshly prepared coffee and walked to the window. The eyes of several women in the cafe followed him.
“Wow, are you a celebrity?”
“I don’t know. Anyway, I washed my eyes properly today.”
The appearance of Seo Joo-hwan dressed to see Gabriella off was enough to attract people’s attention. He has a good-looking appearance and a well-proportioned body, plus the pheromone and charm talent he got from Gabriella.
Actually, Seo Joo-hwan did not care about other people’s eyes. However, he smiled pleasantly at Lucy’s return her and threw a question into the extension.
‘What happened, Lucy? In fact, I thought it would take much longer for you to come back.’
The previous summer vacation. It was when I first had a relationship with Han Soo-ah.
Lucy, who has surfaced for a while, says that it may take 10 years or 5 years for him to return, depending on what he does. So, no matter how fast he thought it would take years, he returned just less than a year later.
Lucy answered his questions diligently. It was a bit businesslike, but unlike the dry voice of the system, it was a loving voice.
[I was also surprised. No matter how fast, I thought it would only be possible by the time the master graduates.]
‘Is there a reason you were able to come back sooner?’
[It’s all thanks to the owner.]
‘Thanks to me?’
[Because the owner has changed a lot. Disrespectfully, Lucy seems to have underestimated her master too much of her.]
From Lucy’s point of view, Seo Joo-hwan was a man with desires worthy of being the owner of the Lust system, but he was more affectionate than necessary. Also, perhaps because of the scars of the past, they were soft-hearted and indecisive, so they were the type to settle for the present rather than pioneering the future.
So, compared to having the ability of an amazing system, human relationships were narrow and the scope of activities was narrow. It was expected that she would also take time to procure the energy of her desire that she naturally needed to return.
However, Seo Joo-hwan changed little by little.
[You have established your relationship with Jeong Ha-yeon. It seems like just yesterday that her master broke up with her and she sobbed alone, but a lot has changed.]
‘Ugh. Lucy, that….’
She recalls breaking up with Jeong Ha-yeon and crying while drinking soju at her house. Seo Joo-hwan gulped down an Americano at her rushing embarrassment to her.
[Whoops. So do other women. I gave up my confused attitude in an ambiguous relationship and made the relationship her with her more solid. She was quite envious of putting rings on her lovers her.]
‘I’m kind of ashamed. You were watching all of that.’
[Sure. Didn’t you say you’d always watch over me?]
Seo Joo-hwan smiled a little. It was impossible to make secrets from Lucy. He felt uncomfortable about not having a private life, but the thought of Lucy being the subject warmed his heart. Because Lucy is a companion who he never betrayed and he was a friend he could confide in anything.
Lucy continued.
[University is a limited space, so I thought it would take a few years. However, the relationship did not end in a piecemeal way. From Lee Seok-chan to Baek Kang-ho, from Baek Kang-ho to Lee Hye-ri. From Choi Mi-hwa to Kang Pil-chun and his granddaughter Kang Na-ru. Before I knew it, the owner’s human relationship, which I could count on my fingers, gradually widened. The relationship was complicated and intertwined and continued continuously.]
Even when Lucy left, his human relationships were extremely narrow. Of course, it was a great improvement compared to before his return his, but excluding his family his, he had less than ten people he could call friends.
But what about now?
There were far more than ten women with whom he was physically involved. Excluding my classmates, there were dozens of people I could easily contact at any time.
[Going to the reunion was a really good choice. I was able to get a lot of energy there.]
‘At the class reunion?’
Seo Ju-hwan tilted his head. Did he mean that he got an S-level talent piece from Yoo Min-seo, his homeroom teacher and his in middle school?
Lucy said no, he said in an affectionate voice.
[At that time, did you get rid of the wounds of the past?]
‘Ah…….’
In the middle of the reunion, her friends her handed over apologies, starting with her drunk her Kim Ho-jin. After the reunion, he had a separate seat with Yoo Min-seo, who was the homeroom teacher. Even though he approached her to get a piece of her S-level talent from her, it was true that she was comforted by her in the process.
‘Because bullying is such an old thing, I thought it was no big deal.’
[She may have thought that way, but her heart probably didn’t.]
‘Yes. I guess so.’
Lucy continued to mention her past activities of hers. As if trying to prove that they had always been watching, the story went on for quite a long time.
[It was also nice that you took care of the gangsters after the reunion. Desire comes from emotion, and anger is one of the most intense emotions.]
She refers to the incident of sweeping away the Black Gompa together with Baek Kang-ho.
[He also helped Doyui in deciding her career path for her.]
Tou Yui is at a crossroads between her dream and reality due to a conflict with her parents and her. She was now working as an instructor at Ten Million, a dance studio.
[It was also very important to solve the problems of Baek Kang-ho and Lee Hye-ri. In particular, Baek Kang-ho’s confused emotions were converted into great energy. Now it has even conceived a new life. The two seem to think of the master as a benefactor.]
‘Beloved… If I knew how, Kang-ho hyung would try to kill me.’
[Whoops. What did you do in your dream? Nobody knows.]
Other than that, the work of working as a fitting model, the work of resolving the agony of Jang Deok-ja to return to the fighting world, the work of Yang Hye-ji, who lived a last-minute life, and the work of Gabriella, who left just a few hours ago.
After finishing the story, Lucy said in a laughing voice.
[People’s feelings and relationships are so amazing. It seems shallow and simple, yet deep and complex. This is especially true of the indecisive master’s feelings.]
‘Ugh. The facts hurt so much, Lucy.’
[Is that a compliment? Maybe the answer was that the owner was affectionate and indecisive. If it was a person who was like a knife, the concentration of emotions would have been light, and the energy supply and demand may have been slow.]
‘Haha. Then shall I continue to live indecisively?’
[No. That’s kinda…….]
Lucy said with a slightly disgusted expression.
Wow, now I’m completely human. I slightly missed Lucy, who always sided with my master, saying that he was the best.
She said in a stern voice.
[Now that Lucy is back, she should be out of that phase. I like an owner who is affectionate, but an owner who doesn’t grow… Um, that’s good.]
Still, I don’t say I hate it because I’m my owner.
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and nodded his head.
‘Okay. If I’m shaken by useless things, Lucy will hold me.’
[Sure. Lucy is the master’s helper. However, I am still a bit clumsy with human emotions.]
‘Clumsy. Even now, I am completely human. Much more than before I left.’
[Whoops. Because I shared my emotions from the owner’s experience. However, it is still only imitating.]
For some reason, Lucy’s voice her sounded bitter.
After being silent for a while, Seo Joo-hwan asked himself a question.
‘Lucy, do you want to become a human?’
[… ] ….]
This time Lucy was silent. But she had enough to know the answer.
Seo Ju-hwan asked again.
‘Is it possible to become a human?’
I knew Lucy’s heart her. I want to make it happen if possible. However, she first asked whether it was a realistic possibility.
[Possibility… It’s open.]
‘That’s possible.’
The controller of the system can be a human being. Isn’t this God’s realm? I’ve been using the system’s abilities so far, but it was a problem I hadn’t even thought about.
Seo Joo-hwan soon decided to think simply. Isn’t his return his and the existence of the system the result of God’s intervention anyway? The important thing was that it was possible.
‘Then I’ll make Lucy a human.’
[There is a possibility, but it is not a simple problem. It will be a nuisance to the master’s future.]
‘It’s possible anyway, right?’
[It will be very difficult. There is no need for the master to go through hardships for me.]
‘… What’s the way Let’s listen.’
[I’m sorry. I can’t tell you that now. It’s locked.]
‘Wasn’t Lucy taking over the system?’
[It’s not as perfect as it came back early. And how can I be a person… It’s because the Creator has specially set it up to appear when the time is right.]
If it’s the creator, he’s talking about Rust, the dream demon who gave him the opportunity and system to return. But the dream demon specially set it up? So, was Lucy created with the assumption that she would become a human from the beginning? The other day, Lucy definitely said that she was a bug.
Lucy answered.
[I can’t tell you exactly. However, that’s just one method, and it wasn’t made with the assumption that I’d become a human.]
Ambiguous word
Seo Joo-hwan let out a small sigh.
‘In the end, I can’t really know anything right now.’
[I’ve been back for a while, but I’m sorry I couldn’t answer properly.]
‘No. Just coming back is enough.’
Lucy seems to be in trouble, so I decided not to ask any more questions. Anyway, the important thing is that there is a way, and that you will know it when the time comes.
[Master, don’t mind me. Lucy is happy just being by her master’s side of her.]
‘Yes, yes.’
[Ha. You’re not listening at all…….]
Lucy sighed in frustration. It’s a little shocking. Lucy sighs.
[Please know one thing, Master. This is not for me, but for the master.]
‘What?’
[How many pieces of S-class talent have you collected now?]
‘I’m sure there are six of them from Gabriela this time?’
[Would you like to check the information?]
I followed Lucy’s words and summoned information.
【S-Class Talent Fragment (x6)】
▶ Effect 1: You can acquire 100,000LP by selling to a shop.
▶ Effect 2: You can make an ‘S-class Talent Stone’ by collecting 10 pieces.
An item that can be gathered to create an ‘S-class Talent Stone’ by collecting 10 of them.
In order for him to acquire S-level talent, he has no choice but to make other people’s favorability rating S-rank or use this talent stone. At least the former method requires the opponent to have S-class talent, and even that must be left to chance, so in fact, collecting pieces was the only way to raise the talent he wanted to S-class.
‘Why is this?’
[Collect the pieces.]
‘Well, I’m going to collect them… Is there some other reason?’
[… ] ….]
‘Okay. I’ll try harder to collect them.’
Seo Joo-hwan nodded his head cautiously.
Said Lucy.
[Enough of that story, shall we settle the bill now?]
‘Calculate?’
[Yes. Because the system level has risen. That’s why I was able to come back.]
Right after that, a message popped up in front of my eyes.
[The system level has risen to Lv 5 by satisfying the desire energy.]
[The grade limit of talent and skill is extended to A+.]
[Skill draw has been opened.]
[You can now purchase ‘Dream Demon’s Blessing’ at the Blessing Shop.]
