Chapter 155

Ki Yoohyuns shoulders drooped as if hed given up, as it looked like I wasnt going to give him his glove back. He covered his scarred hand with his other hand and answered.

Its not usually like this really. At that time, I was just temporarily overloaded from dealing with the boss at that time. Its not something to worry about.

Yoohyun-ssi, its about you. How can I not worry?

Its not uncommon for strong skills to come at a high price. Kwon Jiwoon is always living on potions, and Ju Noeul said she needs to sacrifice more blood to summon stronger monsters.

Then, what about Ki Yoohyuns skill, which is extremely powerful? What kind of price did he have to pay, and was that the reason his arm ended up like that?

So much has changed since the events of the Sephiroth branch of the False World ended, so why did I think Ki Yoohyun would be okay? I should have been suspicious when I couldnt contact him by phone.

What if the reason was that he was too sick to move around?

.

Ki Yoohyun said sadly, I didnt come to see you because I was afraid youd make a face like that, but in the end, you found out.

How do I look?

It looks even worse than before.

.Haha.

I tried to laugh, but it didnt work. I pulled the corners of my mouth awkwardly.

Its just an ugly mark on the outside, it doesnt hurt.

Youre lying.

Why do you think so?

Ki Yoohyun smiled as though nothing was wrong. Just by looking at his face, I could be fooled into thinking that he really is fine.

But I knew better.

Yoohyun-ssi, you came on the day of the commendation ceremony. You went back quickly. Dont you remember bumping into me in a crowded hallway? You had a fever back then.

I didnt notice at the time because it was just a brief touch. But now that I think about it, I realised that he was in a state of fever, and thats why he went home early.

Ill be careful from now on. Ki Yoohyun said as if he had declared surrender.

You mean youll be careful not to get caught by me in the future? Youre not going to order a pair of gloves that wont come off, or something like that, are you?

Thats a good idea, Ill put in an order.

Yoohyun-ssi.

Just kidding, Im just kidding. Haha, Ill be really careful, so relax your expression.

He smiled, folding the corners of his eyes, which made him look even more unnecessarily handsome. I thought about nagging him until his ears cracked, but stopped myself. Instead, I sat with my knees up on the bench and lifted the ends of my shawl.

Do you want to cover up with this? Its big, so I think itll be okay if we share it.

However, Ki Yoohyun rejected my offer with a certain stiffness.

No, Im fine, please dont trouble yourself.

How can I let you get hit by the cold wind when you were sick?

Youre treating me like Im a sunfish.

Dont do that. Come on. I think itll be a perfect fit if you wrap it on your shoulder like this.

Ki Yoohyun sighed helplessly, but didnt actually put the shawl on. After wrapping the shawl around my body again, he brought up another topic.

Rieul-ssi, do you ever say things like this to other people?

What do you mean?

Well, you know, lets put the shawl around our bodies together.

Oh, no, of course I dont say that to other people.

Really?

Ki Yoohyuns expression changed subtly. It looked like the face youd make if you tickled your hand with a very soft feather. It made me feel like my fingertips were itching too, so I hastily added.

I borrowed this from Yoohyun-ssi, so how am I supposed to ask someone else to wear it?

Haa.

We sat on the bench like that for a while. The road was quiet around us, except for the occasional headlights of cars travelling down the road.

I felt refreshed, even though I was doing nothing. Perhaps it was because I was seeing the sea for the first time in a long time, but he was right; it was a good place to change your mood.

Okay, Im definitely going to go on a summer holiday to Jeju Island this summer. Ill take Mimi and Lime, who only guard the shop, with me. Well go swimming and eat delicious food hmm, thats a great idea.

While I was thinking about it, Ki Yoohyuns hand happened to touch the hand I had casually placed on the bench. His skin was bare because I still had his glove on hostage.

I thought so, but he didnt move his hand away, so I left it there. I could feel the faint warmth of his fingers. I pretended that nothing was wrong, but my senses were all over my fingertips.

I opened my mouth, If youre sick, you should rest. Why did you come to meet me?

I wanted to see you.

.

It sounded so meaningful when he said it.

And I was bothered by the fact that I didnt answer your call, Rieul-ssi. By the time I woke up, it was too late to call you back.

Wait a minute, did you lose consciousness?

Not to that extent. Dont glare at me like that, haha.

Are you laughing now?

Ki Yoohyun continued without a trace of shame, So when I came to my senses, I was already in front of the cafe.

Then the wind blew again. His black hair was tousled by the wind, revealing his slightly flushed cheeks and sharp jawline. His eyes met mine with a smile and a hint of sadness.

I thought,

Just as the hardships that have befallen me are not my own special tragedy, perhaps Ki Yoohyuns tragedy is not special either.

We all live through universal tragedies. This is especially true when you think about the countless rifts and dungeons that have occurred since the first rift and the Great Dungeon.

I doubt either answer is correct.

or, why did you come to see me today?

The answer is within reach, but once I find it, I feel like it will be irreversible. I dont know what would be irreversible, but it seemed like it would be the case.

So I just kept my mouth shut. Our hands on the bench were still touching.

We stayed like that for a while, and then Ki Yoohyun took me back to the store. We entered the room through the second floor window so we wouldnt wake Ash and the animals.

If its so easy to travel to and from Jeju Island, wont all the airlines go out of business?

.. When I asked, Ki Yoohyun firmly answered that it would not happen.

Apparently, this teleport scroll is quite expensive. Lets not think about specific prices.

And just before we parted ways, Ki Yoohyun left a mysterious remark.

Ah. Dont be surprised tomorrow.

What does that mean? Why would I be surprised tomorrow? Whats there to be surprised about.

Meooow.

.Aaaah!

I was surprised.

***The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.nᴇt

My movements were perfect. Stealthy, like something out of an espionage film. I entered the room without a sound but Mieum was waiting for me in the room.

Meoow..

In the darkness, Mieums golden eyes shined.

Mi . Mieum, werent you watching a drama?

Do you think I just watch dramas all day!

You do.

As if everything from the morning dramas to Wednesday-Thursday dramas wasnt enough, shes also watching on my Netflix. Shes enjoying the abundance of content like a royalty who couldnt adjust to the world.

Kyakyaorgh! Thats not the problem.

Where have you been! Waeoong!

Ahaha . I couldnt sleep for a while, so I went to get some air.

It was a lame excuse, even for me. As expected, Mieum didnt believe me at all.

I saw it all, waeoong! Do you not know that person was looking at you with extremely meaningful eyes!

Aside from the fact that I got caught seeing Ki Yoohyun.

It was clear that the conversation was heading in an unwanted direction. To distract her, I asked what Id been wondering for a while.

But, Mieum-ah, why are you being so mean to Yoohyun-ssi?

Lets look back on our cats attitude toward guests.

She always asks Choi Yichan to play with her. Shes also a big fan of Oh Seoho. When the other guests show interest in her, she secretly enjoys it while pretending not to.

However, when it comes to Ki Yoohyun, she pretends not to see him and avoids him. Is there a reason for that?

In response to my question, Mieum confidently declared.

It is only natural.

Natural?

He is, so the Great System . waeoong! Hes just the kind of human that cats hate!

I couldnt quite make out the meaning. I scratched my head.

What is the kind of human that cats hate?

There is such a thing!

Did he smell like lilies1? I dont think he was wearing perfume.

How do you know if that human was wearing perfume or not!

Mieum jumped up and slammed her heavy body against me.

Ouch!

Dont be surprised tomorrow?

Ive already been thrown into the dungeon several times, so I dont think anything could surprise me.

Huh its not a big deal, is it?

***

The next morning.

With no special plans, we decided to have a leisurely breakfast together. I set the food on the table, and filled Mieum and Limes bowls with their share of food.

Meow!

Mieum quickly stepped on the television remote control with her front paw.

Mieum, no TV is allowed while eating.

nyaaah, dont you dare say that to me!

This cat looked at me with a sharp glare. It was a gaze so clear that I didnt need to be a mind reader or telepathic to know what it meant.

No, I just went to get some fresh air with Ki Yoohyun. Its not that I did anything unspeakable or scandalous.

Whats wrong? Really, what happened yesterday?

Ash looked at me with dubious eyes. I waved my hand in a hurry.

Uh, nothing. Lets eat.

However, it felt very embarrassing to bring up yesterdays event here. I had no choice but to reluctantly drop the remote in front of Mieums front paws. Losing to a cat made me feel a sense of crisis as a human being.

At that time, Lime started bouncing around and pressed the remote control. When the channel changed, Mieums tail thumped angrily.

Kyaoooogh!

Kyuuuuu!

Mieum, Lime . dont fight over that . eh?

I gasped as I picked up the remote to change the channel.

Lee Chorok was appearing on the morning talk show.

Translators Corner:

  1. : Lilium longiflorum, often called the Easter lily. Its extremely poisonous for cats.

I was actually going to left you guys on the last chapter for a while I was finishing the early chapters of other but someone sent a coffee ajsahdhds Oh! just for a future note, it will be nice to state the youre reading in the future so I can do the bonus chapter correctly (since Im going to actively doing another titles too now) (please sayamen) (something bad always happened to me everytime I tried to make update schedule in the past so I just gave up).

A lot of my friends were finishing their thesis one by one and I was still stuck with no progress so ASDFGHJKL It was nice that I have this blog otherwise Id be depressed with nothing going on properly on my life.

ALSO. KI YOOHYUN IS A BETTER PERSON THAN ME. With the way Rieuls acting, I would already throw the What are we? question if I were him. Todays TMI: While translating the shawl thing, I reminded this time when my crush lent me his jacket because I was cold. That said crush is now being on a very close relationship with my close friend. (It still makes me sad everytime I think about it) (I had a crush on him back then, but I introduced him to this close friend of mine and she developed feelings for him so I kinda gave up and stayed away from him even though we used to be really close because I dont want to ruin my friendship, but it still hurts now everytime I see them together now.) Please dont introduce your crush to your friend, everyone..

Thank you Anonymous for the Coffee!
