MEMORIZE

Entering the red wasteland, we marched diligently without a break. Furthermore, thanks to Zhugel Haal's ability to transport, it was finally possible to enter the city late in the afternoon.

They entered the south gate, but did not break up immediately. Because I didn't want to and it wasn't polite. So after sending the Clan members to Casle first, I decided to see Han So-young off. (Sonyul complained in the middle, 'Oh, it was a hard-working expedition, but it soon became quiet because of her conscience.)

After a while, I and Han So-young joined hands firmly ahead of the passageway connecting the city.

"You did a great job. Eastantel Low Road. Thank you for your help."

"No, I'm not the trouble. It was a good experience."

"I'll never forget that you wiped out the smoke alone, and that you hurt me fatally.

"It's been a long time since I've felt awkward about gold. I just took the right action, and it was the Commercial Road that created the situation."

It was from the bottom of her heart, but Han responded humbly.

"Anyway, I'll make it up to you in the future."

"Reward…. No. It's all right."

"What?"

"Because I've already received my reward."

Han So-young, who said so, took a small bead out of her arms. It was a record bead.

"So it means the snow will be pleasant in the future."

What are you talking about? However, Han gently closed her eyes and shook her head slowly. It was a moment, but I think the corners of my mouth went up very slightly. No, did I see it wrong?

"Thank you for your support. Then I'll be on my way."

Soon after, Han So-young quickly brushed past me as the record beads emitted the light between the horses.

(MERIAL LOAD.)

(Yum yum…) Huh? No, yeah?

As soon as I passed, a voice coming out of the bead clearly came into my ears.

Would you like to call me sister?)

What? You're my sister?)

(Yeah. Come on.)

(No. What's wrong with you all of a sudden...).)

(Noo, Me.)

(Nu, nu, nu...)(Sister.)

Suddenly, a great deal of shame rises to my heart.

"Ee, Istanbul Low Road!"

The idea of breaking that bead quickly soared, but Han had already disappeared into the aisle. Subsequently, a murmur is heard around. I wrapped my face with both hands. Oh, my face is burning.

After going back to the Materials Castle, I headed straight to the conference room on the first floor. The Clan members were waiting for me, arranged left and right as expected. There was no bigger fuss than before, with only occasional congratulatory greetings. Perhaps the Clan members who arrived earlier explained the situation to some extent.

Soon after I gave a wink to Ko Yeon-joo, who sent a strange wink, I walked to the power and sat down. Clan members sit down at the same time.

"About a month. No, it's been more than a month. Anyway, it's been a long time, everyone."

I started in a hurry with a light greeting, and calmly started talking about the mission. There was no need to speak long. There's nothing to talk about in detail one by one, and I'm sure you've heard about it.

So unfortunately, the boy's colleagues have briefly explained the fact that they have died (it seems to have been used as food for the plant corps, but not in detail): the fall of the plant corps, the devil 14 monarchs, and how they obtained the source fragments.

"We will keep the results of this expedition in the warehouse. And there's one thing to celebrate here.”

After handing over the witch set to Ko, I turned to the left. Lee Yoo-jung, who is sitting on the D-rated line, looks at me and hurriedly avoids my eyes. Everyone turned their heads when I gestured to come out. Lee Yu-jung laid her eyes on them, and soon came to the center with a hesitant step.

"User Lee Yu-jung….”

The hall became as quiet as death when he started to say his lines.

"This expedition succeeded the Secret Class."

"What?"

The first person to react was Anhyun.

"Are you sure?"

"Anhyun!"

When Ko pointed out strictly, Ahn Hyun bowed his head with an airtight face. I shrugged and stared in the middle. Almost everyone has astounded eyes. Judging from the reaction, it seems that he has not mentioned it himself yet. The people who went on the expedition seemed to have kissed each other. Soon after, Lee Yu-jung nodded very slightly like a shy girl.

"Yes…, that's right….”

Unusual interruption, awkward voice. The moment you barely acknowledge it,

"Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Ahn Hyun ran out screaming weirdly. With a frown on his face, Ko tried to get up quickly, but I gestured quickly. I meant to leave it alone. Because I wanted to see your reaction.

But it was a little unexpected. Originally, I thought she was desperate to show off her personality, but Lee Yu-jung was very embarrassed. No. I think he feels sorry when he's shy and watching Ahn Hyun running towards him running. I suddenly thought that he might have wanted to keep it as secret as possible. I'm sorry if I do this.

"Hey, are you serious? Is it really a secret class?"

"Huh? Uh, uh....”

However, Ahn made a fuss, touching his shoulder without caring at all. Then, as light applause began to pour out from all over, Lee Yu-jung's face came to mind. It's as if this was unexpected.

"What's the name of the class?"

"Queen of Mercenaries....”

"Wow, that's awesome. That's a pretty good name, isn't it?”

“…….”

When I complimented her one after another, Lee Yu-jung stared at me, saying, "I can't help it." I slowly raised one hand in the slightly resentful glare. The hall is quiet again.

"And one more."

Ahn immediately stopped chatting and returned to the B-rated line.

"I don't know if you've heard..."In fact, this expedition was more difficult than the Dragon Mountains, and there were some really dangerous moments."

“…….”

"We had no choice but to look at the dying world. If I had stayed still at that time, I wouldn't have been able to come back this safely. At worst, everyone could have died."

“…….”

I stared in the middle of the road. Lee Yu-jung was biting her lower lip with a red face.

"User Lee Yu-jung."

I shudder at the call of my name.

"With no one coming forward, he charged alone and stopped the collapse of the world, so I take the credit and re-grade it from D to C."

Then, Lee Yu-jung's expression was filled with embarrassment. It's more like saying, 'This is not what I'm embarrassed about than happy.' He opened his mouth as if he were about to say something, but when another thunderous applause continued, he closed his eyes and bit his mouth.

I smiled and opened my mouth quietly.

"That's all for the meeting."

*

I try not to think of any corner of Hallplane as a 'home' at all. Because this is a world that will leave someday, not a home that will return.

But even after considering it, it's definitely comfortable to come back to Casle. As much as the gold coins have been poured out, Castle's facilities boast a cozy atmosphere that is incomparable to the camp camp set up in Gan-ri.

Anyway, after the meeting, the night had deepened before I came out after enjoying a hot bath after finishing a delicious meal. Then I thought it was a bit disappointing to sleep like this, so I stopped by the restaurant and picked up a bottle of good alcohol before going up the stairs. And as soon as I entered the Oval with a Ninyanino hum, I stopped.

"You guys..."

There were three passengers in the room. Ahn Hyun, who looks as if he doesn't understand, Heo Joon-young, who is sighing, and Lee Yoo-jung, who are sitting calmly. Three people were sitting on the sofa and turned their heads and looked at me at the same time when I came in. I instinctively felt that some sort of event had happened.

I don't know what's going on, but it's good. I walked calmly to the sofa. And first of all, I thought I'd show my ease, so I grinned and said, 'Yes. How does it feel to have the power you wanted so badly?"

"Oppa, I don't need to be graded."

Lee Yu-jung's voice, which entered the ear, made the horse soar to the tip of its throat.

"What?"

"And drop me to the bottom. Grade F."

The words that followed confused my mind. I've restored it to grade C, so you want me to drop it to grade F? Are you out of your mind?

"Hey, do something about him. You must be crazy."

"I don't know what the hell you're thinking.”

Ahn Hyun and Huh Joon-young's voices overlapped. First, after sitting on the sofa, I stared at Yi Yu-jung right next to me.

"Are you still sulking?”

"Come on, you're sulking."

"Is that a rebellion?"

"It's not like that."

Lee Yu-jung smiled bitterly. From your reaction, I don't think you're kidding me.Rather, he has a serious look of serious.

"Why?"

"Just…."

Lee Yu-jung slightly blurred her words and bowed her head. The two calves under the sofa shake.

"I've been wondering.”

"You're curious?"

"Yes, I had a lot of thoughts on my way back.”

"Thoughts…."

Lee Yu-jung slowly raised her hand. The hands soon blazed with gold. It seems to be a new power.

"This power... is really powerful. I think it's too much for me.

"But."

"Actually, was there a way I could be stronger then? With just a little change in choice, perhaps it would have drawn the power of the prisoner to perfection.”

“…….”

"But I didn't. Yeah. I didn't choose that way.”

"So there was a way to gain more power, but you didn't?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

I think something important will come up. I decided to let go of the ridiculous feeling and listen.

"Because I didn't think I'd be able to make that power mine."

Soon after, Yi Yu-jung slowly lowered her hand.

"It's actually the same now. I don't think this power is entirely mine. I just think I'm qualified to make it mine. So as a human being."

And he quietly connects the words.

"That's the way you look at it. Even if I got a secret class, I'm still weak. It's not strong at all. I've been in a position that doesn't fit my skills, and this time I've got the power that doesn't fit my place.”

"That's why we're doing this. What does that have to do with the rating adjustment, and you're wondering what else. I just have to work hard from now on.”

"No. I'm not just looking up anymore.”

"Yoojung."

"Oppa."

“…….”

Lee Yu-jung turned her head and stared straight at me.

"I think it's too late…I'll start at the bottom."

"What?"

"I didn't decide in a fit of anger. I kept thinking on my way back. If I really try, how far can I go up? That's what it meant to me to be curious.”

"You…."

Is that why you want me to drop it to grade F? I understood, but suddenly I felt speechless. I couldn't think of a word to refute, and the desperation in the blood-red eyes kept my mouth shut. At least I realized that Lee Yu-jung was sincere.

As he glanced away, Ahn Hyun and Huh Joon-young stare blankly at Lee Yu-jung. It's awkward, right? It's strange for me, too.

Anyway, if it comes out like this, I have nothing to say. You can't stop a kid who won't. And I didn't expect that Lee Yu-jung would come out like this.

"Why don't you just let me. Kim Soo-hyun. He wants it so bad.

Then I heard Heo Joon-young's voice.

"Oh, I thought I was stupid at first, but...I've changed my mind. Considering you're all talk and no talk, you're full of spirit.”

Heo Joon-young calmly raised his glass and opened his mouth. In no time, the bottle was half empty. Who's drinking like that, dude? I've been getting a good drink.

Huh Joon-young filled his glass one after another, as if he liked the drink quite a bit.

"I think it's a lot better than trying to sneak out of the Clan to at least leave safely."

"Heh. Did that happen?”

"Uh."

"So you stopped Lee Yu-jung from leaving?”

Heo Joon-young did not answer Ahn's question. Just a straight gulp of a glass. As I turn my eyes to the side, I see Lee Yu-jung, who is slightly avoiding my eyes. Tsk tsk.

I caught my forehead after a long breath.

"Really? Are you serious?”

"Yes."

"It's no use crying and regretting later?”

"Of course! If I say anything else later, you can kill me then."

I wanted to say 'in bed?' for a moment, but I just said 'do as you please.'

Eventually, let's give her permission, and then Lee Yu-jung smiles broadly. Is he that happy? Smiling and gently leaning his head on my shoulder. I wasn't in a bad mood.

Ahn Hyun came out pleased and looked at Huh Joon-young while looking at Lee Yu-jung.

"Come to think of it, I remember that time."

“……?”

"When I was kicked out. You took care of me then. You told me not to be hungry and use my allowance."

"I gave it to you in no money. Don't get me wrong."

"Hey, what do you mean money? I already know that you don't feel that way.”

"Well, illusion is freedom."

Huh Joon-young snorted as he filled his glass. Ahn Hyun looked a little reminded and smiled the same and gently leaned his head on Huh Joon-young's shoulder. Heo Jun-young was about to break the glass and slowly put it down on the table.

A little later.

I love you!

"You son of a gun! I'll kill you!"

"Tongue, brother? Go, why all of a sudden?"

"You're in a good mood, how dare you spoil the taste of alcohol? Won't you stand there?"

"Suhyun is staying still...Wait, wait, wait! That's a real sword! Argh!"

Ahn Hyun is running away and Heo Jun Young is swinging a sword. The two quickly left the room and disappeared to the other side of the hallway. The sound of a thump down the stairs rings. What are you doing at night?

"Kick, you look stupid.”

Lee Yu-jung giggled and pulled herself up. But it didn't go outside. Walk three or four steps to the desk and look at the terrace.

Softly flowing darkness and brilliant moonlight. Is it because of the mana of the night? Lee Yu-jeong, who shines in the moonlight, suddenly felt attractive. Come to think of it, you were 25 years old this year? His chest is quite tight, his hips are tight and elastic..

"But. I have a question."

At that time, Lee Yu-jung suddenly turned around and looked at me. I quickly turned my eyes because I was in the middle of smacking my lips. Then I grabbed the half of the bottle and poured it into the glass. I drank a lot in a short time.

"What are you curious about?”

"How far did you go with Kim Han-byul?”

Oh, this is quite an unexpected question. But if you thought I'd be embarrassed, you'd be mistaken. I swirled around the glass and showed a relaxed attitude.

"Are you curious?"

"No. I just don't want to hear it. I'm who I am anyway, and he and I are different."

But unexpectedly, Lee gave up quickly. I can't help but smile.

"Ho. Really?"

"Yeah, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the first goal is to get to grade B as soon as possible.”

"Grade B. Do you mean you'll catch up with Kim Han-byeol first?

"In what sense?"

"It's not going to be easy. As you know, Kim Han-byul is a hard worker."

"I admit, but no one knows what's going to happen.”

Lee Yu-jung, who said so, turned around and stared at the terrace. And there was a moment of silence. Taking the appearance of Lee Yu-jung, who was colored by the moonlight, I slowly lifted the glass.

"You'd better be prepared, too.”

At that moment, Lee Yoo-jung, who had been silent for a while, said as if she were spitting out. It was a tone of resentment unlike ever. I laughed inside. Why would you go up to the EX and say Clan Road?

Anyway, it's a bit wild, but this level of mettle isn't bad.

"When I get to grade B....”

Soon after, Lee Yu-jung, who was looking outside, glanced at me. And I thought he was staring at me, and suddenly his eyes bent like a crescent and grinned. It was a smile that felt strange without a reason.

"Yeah, what if it goes up?"

Thinking what I was going to do, I tilted my glass calmly.

At that moment.

"I'll come and get you, too."

"Pooh."

Unknowingly, the liquid I had was spouting hard.

What, what? What are you coming to eat?

"What did you just...!”

I looked straight away, but there was no more Lee Yu-jung in front of the desk. I quickly turned my eyes, and I heard a giggle and a rush of running down the hall. The sound soon disappeared into the darkness.

"Oh, my."

A sigh came out of the temple.

"No, even if I say the same thing....”

I can't believe you're here to warm me up.

That's too revealing.
