“Um, then I’ll give you both. Deal?”
……Pfft. Eunha inadvertently let out a laugh. The girl, who was handing over two candies at once as if it were a serious matter, was both funny and entertaining.
“……I don’t have any personal profits, but I have agreed to receive a contract fee from the support guild.”
“Ah. That’s it.”
The girl didn’t question about the support guild. She seemed to have that much common sense.
The girl, rolling the candy around in her mouth, smiled pleasantly.
“So, since you’ve contracted, you’re a free hunter?”
“Free hunter?”
“Freelancer plus hunter! It’s a new term, don’t you know?”
Eunha didn’t know. She tore open the candy wrapper handed to her by the girl and put it in her mouth. The sweet and tangy lemon flavor filled her mouth delightfully. She couldn’t remember the last time she had candy.
Thus, Eunha talked with the girl sitting next to her until she arrived in Busan. Considering that Eunha was not talkative, the girl seemed quite adept at keeping the conversation going.
“You’re also going to Busan for a big score, right?”
Going for a big score was not the case, but going to Busan was correct. When Eunha responded with “Yes,” the girl nodded as if she understood.
“You know how to smell money, huh? If you only hustle two places this time, you shouldn’t have to worry about living expenses for a while. Where are you going?”
“Jagalchi Market.”
“Huh. Jagalchi Market?”
Suddenly, the girl’s face visibly hardened. Looking thoughtful with a serious expression, she finally opened her mouth in a hushed tone.
“Didn’t you hear the rumors?”
“If you mean the unknown gate, yes, I heard about it.”
The girl, staring intently at Eunha’s straightforward reply, tilted her head.
“I was just asking in case, but what’s your rank?”
“Frank.”
“Ahh, Frank, so…….”
Pause.
“Eek! Frank?”
The girl’s mouth gaped open in disbelief. The strawberryflavored candy she was mumbling fell down.
“Cough! Cough!”
Coughing sounds were heard from nearby. Eek, the girl quietly lowered her voice and whispered.
“Sis, even if reality is harsh and life is tough, that’s not the way. The world is still warmer than you think.”
Something seemed to have been grossly misunderstood. The bobhaired girl began earnestly trying to persuade Eunha.
“I can listen if you want to talk about it. What’s so hard that you made such an extreme choice─.”
Thump.
Eunha, who pushed away the hand shaking her shoulder, calmly opened her mouth.
“I’m just looking for someone.”
“A person?”
The girl’s eyes widened. It seemed that the misunderstanding had cleared a little. With a voice now more serene than before, she opened her mouth again.
“Okay. I kinda understand what you mean. But… ummmm.”
The girl crossed her arms, looking troubled. Rolling her eyes, she suddenly brightened.
“Still not recommended. You won’t even be able to enter anyway? That place has already been handed over to the Immortal Guild.”
“……Immortal Guild?”
“Jecheon Daeseong Guild.”
“Who’s Jecheon Daeseong?”
“Wow. Amazing.”
The girl stared at Eunha as if she was looking at a zoo monkey. Don’t concept hunters know that too? She didn’t even know the word ‘free hunter’ earlier.
She didn’t seem much older on the outside, but maybe she’s quite old, and her actual age might be significant. Thinking this, the girl pointed her index finger and spoke.
“Jechon Daesung ghost! It’s an Srank Hunter. That person declared a sweep not only of Busan but also the Gyeongnam region Burst Gate. How could you not know?”
……I seemed to remember seeing such an article.
“It’s possible it’s a real unknown gate since the Srank came out, since the auction didn’t go through. The possibility of it being an unknown gate is high.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
“Hey, did you even listen to me? The hunting right has been exceeded? We’ll probably start capturing from tomorrow morning?”
Cha Eun Ha momentarily lost herself in thought at her words. Her face was not too serious. Cha Eun Ha, who had been stroking her chin, opened her mouth calmly.
“Then we should go in before that.”
“……What?”
Suddenly, the girl stiffened.
But that was only for a moment.
“Ahahaha! You’re really fun, sister.”
Whatever was so funny, she slapped the front seat cushion and laughed loudly.
“Student, don’t you know etiquette, etiquette?!”
Finally, the front seat passenger yelled in anger. The girl finally closed her mouth with a “gulp.”
“I was wrong.”
She laughed sheepishly.
Strangely, seeing her like that, Cha Eun Ha’s lips loosened naturally.
She was noisy and restless, but there was an undeniable charm about her that was hard to hate.
Many years ago… no, over thirty years ago, when Cha Eun Ha was in high school, there was a classmate like that in her class.
Her grades weren’t great, and she was scatterbrained, but she was in charge of creating the class atmosphere and was always surrounded by many people.
If Cha Eun Ha had known this girl in her high school days, maybe they would have become good friends.
「Our train will soon arrive at Busan Station. Thank you, everyone, for using our KTX today. We will soon be arriving at Busan Station──.」
Time passed, and they soon arrived at Busan Station.
Cha Eun Ha took her parasol and stood up. The bobbedhaired girl did the same.
Screech.
After putting on her aviation jumper and zipping it up to her chin, the girl glanced at Cha Eun Ha.
“Sister, are you really going? Don’t you want to think again?”
This fearless Frank concept Hunter seemed quite concerned. Of course, Cha Eun Ha’s decision was not going to be reversed.
“I’m going.”
With a determined answer, the girl let out a short “hmm,” seeming to ponder something hard, but finally lifted her head with a pop!
“It’s not my place to stop you, but I’ll give you one tip since this is also fate.”
She followed Cha Eun Ha until the moment she got off the train.
“If you ever run into the Immortal Guild, never duel. Absolutely never. Especially be careful with the bushyhaired old man. Okay?”
What came out of her mouth was not a tip about the unknown gate.
A duel? Bushyhaired? Cha Eun Ha turned her head at the absurd advice.
“Then byebye!”
The faint voice melted into the air and was buried among people’s footsteps. The bobbedhaired girl was nowhere to be seen.
Flap─
A crumpled candy wrapper floated gently to the ground.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
