Chapter 38 – First Gate (1)
I made an appointment to go out with Choi Da-hyun next Sunday.
I haven’t decided what to do specifically.
Somehow, both this week and next weekend were scheduled.
Professor Jeong Na-jeong this Saturday, Lee Rin this Sunday, Instructor Kim Si-young next Saturday, Choi Da-hyun next Sunday.
… I’m glad I wasn’t busy with work.
On the way out of the main building after the afternoon lecture.
Dahyun Choi said with his face slightly blushing.
“Mr. Daeseung, today’s massage—.”
“A big win!”
Lee Rin ran towards me and interrupted Choi Da-hyun.
Choi Da-hyun frowned and looked at Yi-rin.
Irene smiled and said yes or no.
“Let’s go, Chuncheon!”
“Okay.”
Choi Da-hyun and I looked at Lee Rin’s face alternately.
“It’s just the two of you… ?”
Lee Rin approached Choi Da-hyun and answered.
“I plan to go to Chuncheon and eat chicken ribs and makguksu for dinner. I envy you? Are you envious?”
It was a tone that somehow made fun of Choi Da-hyun.
In fact, when I go back to the gate, it’s already time for all restaurants to close.
Dahyun Choi crossed her arms under her chest.
And he forced a smile on his face.
“Anyway, Mr. Lee doesn’t know anything. No matter how much Lee Rin buys me chicken ribs and buckwheat noodles, will she use her energy for something else?”
“I don’t know anything?”
Somehow, it seemed like they were hitting each other.
Did these two not get along so well?
Even when school started, even if they weren’t really close friends, they just seemed like an amicable relationship.
I deliberately cleared my throat a few times and joined the conversation.
“Dahyeon, I’m just going to the gate. It’s not strange.”
“Is that so?”
“I will give you a massage tomorrow morning. The morning lecture starts a little late tomorrow.”
Dahyun Choi nodded his head slowly.
It looked like it was very sad.
I felt a bit sorry to think that I expected my massage that much.
Irene grabbed my hand and pulled me in front of her.
“Let’s go! I will wait for you, driver.”
“Uh, uh uh.”
She waved her hand to Choi Da-hyun and went to the above-ground parking lot on the academy grounds.
Quite a large surface parking lot with buses and large trucks.
A taxi had [Reservation] Written on the windshield with emergency blinkers on.
“Look at that song.”
Irin took the lead and approached the taxi.
And she knocked on the driver’s side window.
The driver’s side window went down.
Knight uncle,
“Gong Dae-seung and Lee Rin, right?”
He asked.
“Yes that’s right.”
“Come on, hurry up. Chuncheon C-level gate, right?”
“Yes.”
When I opened the door and tried to get in, I was a little worried about how to sit.
Me and Katrin in the back seat and Irin in the passenger seat?
Or is it better for me to sit in the front passenger seat and have Katrin and Irene in the back seat?
While contemplating, Irin grabbed her Katrin’s arm and said.
“I’d like to talk to Catherine a little bit.”
“Okay? Then the two of you get in the back.”
“Don’t eavesdrop on my conversations with Catherine with your skills!”
“… Okay.”
Rather, the nail was firmly nailed, so I became more curious.
What the hell are you trying to talk about?
But it wouldn’t be nice if it was found out that I was eavesdropping.
I quietly sat in the passenger seat.
“Driver, please play the song louder.”
“Do students like hip-hop?”
“Yes? I hear something.”
“Am, young people are hip-hop after all.”
The driver turned up the volume knob.
I pressed the touchscreen on the car audio deck a few times, and an extremely low-pitched beat echoed throughout the car.
… It just seemed like he liked hip-hop a lot.
***
The subwoofer installed in the taxi thumped my ears.
Thanks to this, Irin was less concerned about the conversation being overheard by Daeseung Gong.
Although my ears hurt a little.
Soon after, the taxi started rolling its wheels.
It takes about 1.5 to 2 hours from the academy site to Chuncheon.
In the meantime, you can talk to Catherine long enough.
“Catherine.”
“Why?”
Once I let go, I didn’t get angry.
It was a bit strange to say it with respect to a familiar, but with a high-ranking monk.
Irene covered her mouth with her hand and held her body close to Katrin, trying to keep out of his ears as much as possible.
The seat belt was stretched out.
“Do you think your master is interested in me?”
“In what way?”
“Of course…”
Erin blushed and glanced at her in the passenger seat.
Then Catherine grinned and said.
“You don’t have to worry about that part. Didn’t you see that he had a proper erection?”
“Yeah, but that…”
Irene wasn’t sure.
At first, she assured herself when she saw the tent on the engineer’s trousers.
If you seduce him, he will fall over.
She has never been criticized for her appearance.
Even though I’ve heard that she’s pretty but not cheap.
She said, “I said I would release the erection, but she calmly refused. Don’t you mean you don’t want to do dirty things with me?”
“That’s because the master’s basic personality is kind, whether for good or for bad.”
“… Are you nice to the subject of playboy?”
Katrin explained in detail about the Gong Dae-seung.
Even though he dropped out of high school to pay for his mother’s hospital bills instead of his father who died in an accident, he never resents his parents.
He must be resentful.
It was the same when dealing with Choi Da-hyun, Lee Rin, and Katrin.
I try to treat people as person to person as much as possible, not just as an object to make money or satisfy my desires.
He doesn’t give in to temptation easily because he doesn’t want to do anything that might hurt his heart.
“But the master is also a male after all! If I break down the wall of conscience, I will rather actively step out!”
“The wall of conscience…”
Irin recalled what Daeseung Gong had said.
Why are you hesitant to cross the line with yourself?
Katrin’s existence makes it easy for her girlfriend to see her as an object of infidelity.
In other words, the fear of hurting the heart.
She thought about it once.
The scene where Catherine has sex with him.
The scene where he covets Catherine’s body like a beast.
‘… I kind of hate it.’
It made sense in her head.
To him now, Catherine is a precious familiar that cannot be abandoned.
What a familiar like that demands is his semen, so I can’t help it.
However, Lee Rin also had a desire for monopoly.
Few women, at least in Korea, would want to see their boyfriend hugged by another woman in the first place.
If she summons her Katrin while dating him and makes love with her, that could be enough reason for a breakup.
‘It would have been better if I hadn’t known.’
Wouldn’t it have been better if Daeseung Gong behaved well and had an affair secretly?
Perhaps he judged that he could not hide his affair with Catherine until the end.
It’s not wrong, so it became more complicated in my head.
Letting out a long sigh, Katrin said.
“I, on the other hand, do not quite understand human monogamy.”
“Okay… ? Isn’t it natural to want my man alone?”
“Is it not better to share a superior male popular with all females than to occupy an inferior male unpopular with any females alone?”
“…”
Although it is a difference in values, Irin could not easily understand Catherine’s way of thinking.
If you want to go out with an engineering major, you have to accept Katrin because you have no choice but to accept her, otherwise it’s better to just monopolize it.
“Well, that’s okay. Because I decided not to care what Daeseung does with you.”
“Oh, then I can mate with my master even more!”
“Really? But how far did you go with Daeseung? Because he’s feeding semen, even fellatio… ?”
Catherine shook her head in response.
“I even did everything!”
“What?!”
Irene screamed in surprise at the moment.
The taxi driver and Kong Dae-seung, who were in the front seat, both turned their heads back.
“M-I’m sorry. Never mind.”
As Irin smiled and talked, the two looked at each other again.
Taking two or three deep breaths, she spoke to Catherine again.
“He talked as if he hadn’t even drained the gin yet, and then he said he was gone…”
“Yes, yes.”
“Huh?”
“Because I got jealous yesterday.”
“…”
Katrin’s words, which were so calm, made Irin lose her mind.
***
While Katrin and Irin chatted in whispers in the back.
… I had to keep listening to the chatter of the taxi driver.
I was confused as to whether the rap was coming out of the speaker’s hip-hop song or the driver’s mouth.
“Fortress Hunters aren’t the same as they used to be, what do they say, oversupply? In the past, it was said that if you had a hunter’s license, you would build a building in Gangnam, but that was also an old saying.”
“Okay. You know better than me.”
“They say it’s all competition, so even hunters are cheating and messing around. It seems like the world is getting harder and harder.”
“I wouldn’t do it anywhere.”
“That’s right.”
She gave me a good fit.
Her head was turned toward the passenger side window.
It felt a bit fresh since she came out of the academy grounds after a long time.
The horse in the taxi meter ran hard.
The rates were added at a terrifying rate, but it’s not the money we’ll pay anyway.
However, I had an uneasy premonition that the weekend transportation cost would be prohibitive since the taxi fare was this much even though I was going to Chuncheon, which is relatively close. .
Clack clack—.
The driver turned on the emergency flashers and parked the car in front of Chuncheon Class C Dungeon.
Thanks to the hard speed, we arrived in 1 hour and 10 minutes.
“Work hard!”
“Thank you.”
I got out of the noisy taxi.
And with Katrin and Irin, we headed to the gate management office.
The Chuncheon C-level gate was a regular gate that appeared in the same spot periodically, so there was a management office installed by the Hunter Association.
I stood in front of a container office with windows.
Then the window opened and the man
“License. Oh, you are a student. Student ID.”
Said in a dry voice.
It was a very annoying attitude.
Both Irin and I handed over our student IDs.
The man read the barcode on his student ID with a reader.
“You should give the lady there too.”
The uncle pointed his chin at Katrin.
She seemed to be mistaken for the same student as me.
Well, on the surface, he’s just a human.
“He is my work. Here you go.”
I presented my workhorse registration certificate to my uncle.
She checked several times in disbelief.
“To… Starting at 18:14, engineering students and Yilin students are permitted to enter the gate. If you do not leave the gate after 4 hours of entering the gate, the system will automatically determine that it is an emergency and go to the rescue.”
“”Yes.””
There is a gate if you walk straight for 5 minutes from the kwanliso, the old man added lastly.
I walked about 10 steps in the direction the uncle pointed out.
A man in running clothes stood there.
“Hey, are you academy students?”
It was a man with tattoos all over his body, let alone his arms.
He took his wallet out of his pocket and showed me his hunter license.
It was Joo Dong-hyun, a C-class hunter.
“My brother will treat you cheaply.”
Just looking at it, it seemed that a troublesome guy had stuck to it.
