“Only Jeokcheon or someone insane would attempt to tackle an S-rank Gate alone. If only I had some kind of attribute to compete…”
Still, having an S-rank Hunter nearby was somewhat reassuring. I chose to see the bright side.
As night fell and stars emerged in the Gate’s sky, I wondered if this sky was real, but the stars embedded in the night were beautiful.
“I don’t like this person.”
“They’re ominous, carrying an aura of dangerous fire.”
The small lights were chattering. I hoped they wouldn’t be noticed by Cali.
“What, they were supposed to be here? There are only traces.”
“Yeah, weird. Where did they go?”
Returning to our spot to regroup with Anwoon, only signs of people remained. Cali snorted.
“That’s a producer Awakener, right? They must have had an escape stone from the start.”
“Well, good for them if they managed to escape.”
“Clever move. Ah, I’m so tired. Hey, kids, just go to sleep.”
“Yes, yes.”
The girl who had been crying non-stop introduced herself as Kim Sejin, maintaining a polite demeanor.
The sight of her, dismayed and wrapping herself in a blanket, wondering why a foreign ranker was here, was quite pitiful.
“Hey, what’s this? I’m sorry about before?”
“…Yes?”
“Ha, I mean, I’m sorry for threatening you. It was a mistake.”
Cali, tired but volunteering for the night watch, awkwardly apologized. It was an absurd apology.
“Almost killing someone is a mistake?”
“Well, it happens when you’re agitated.”
“That’s why there’s a charge for attempted murder, isn’t it?”
“…You were so scared of me before, and now you’re not even trembling?”
“…”
I was at a loss for words and just tossed some kindling into the fire.
“No, I mean… Shouldn’t you get a mental evaluation? You seem to have an S-rank mental barrier. You’re a non-Awakener, right? But can you use skills in that state?”
“Ah, yes.”
“Hmm. I know a sensor who can help. There won’t be any harm to your body…”
“I’m not going to the U.S. Plus, I’ve already done all that.”
“What?”
“You’re just trying to entice me. I’m a unique Irregular, you think I haven’t done those tests?”
“Heh, you have quite an imagination.”
“…So it won’t happen?”
“No, maybe even worse things will happen.”
“…”
When I fell silent, Cali added that it’s rare in some states, but she would protect me if anything happened.
I let her words go in one ear and out the other.
Cali persistently tried to convince me to come with her, employing various persuasive techniques. I couldn’t help but get irritated.
“Why are you so obsessed with me?”
“Well, you’re the one from the prophecy! …Ah, forget it.”
Despite saying ‘forget it,’ she looked far from giving up.
I turned my gaze to the fire.
It was a silent night. Cali gave up persuading me and quietly cleaned her spear, while Sejin and Semin slept soundly.
“…”
“…”
It was eerily quiet.
But had this forest ever been this quiet?
“Hey, non-Awakener.”
“Why do you call people that?”
“Wake them up. We need to move.”
“Huh?”
A faint song intertwined with the chilly wind.
“Ah, today the Warlord is going to break Jeokcheon’s record, huh?”
A cold breeze increasingly approached us.
…It seemed angry.
I quickly woke Sejin and picked up Semin, who was still half-asleep.
“Sister…?”
“Shh, this way.”
The night was too cold for just being night. I took the kids to a slightly distant spot.
The form of the white fairy crumbled as if melting away. The ground was covered in snow, and several figures of snowmen appeared.
No, they weren’t snowmen but rather snow giants.
The seven or so snow giants, with their slow movements, tried to catch Cali. Cali, like an eel, slipped through them, melting the hands of the snow giants.
A blizzard raged, creating a fog that obscured visibility, mixing with the fire.
The windstorm raged on.
That was all I could discern.
I just watched.
“Ha ha, are your minions weak?”
After a brief standoff in the fog, it was Cali who stood there. Her left arm, now a pale blue color, hung limply, holding the spear only in her right hand, she spoke arrogantly.
The snow and wind gathered into one place, quickly forming a human shape. The boss monster, despite Cali’s taunting, remained expressionless.
♪
Then it sang. The mournful voice sounded almost like a plea for help.
“Hey, I can’t hear any sound, you know? It’s no use, huh?”
As the song continued, a strange feeling overtook me. And then an epiphany struck.
Somehow, Sejin and Semin, whom I had placed a bit away, were approaching them with staggering steps and dazed expressions.
I had to stop them.
“Ha, so it comes to this, huh?”
How could I?
Cali’s figure soared into the sky, enveloped in flames, reminiscent of a mythological scene.
“Such a futile effort.”
“…You think you can dodge so easily?”
The boss monster, who had been there just moments before, now stood behind Cali. It reached out, seemingly to grab her neck, but Cali quickly rolled forward.
“How annoying.”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:
What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.
Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.
Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.
*
At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
