012 – Nymph Oinoi # 12

I wasn’t the type to like eavesdropping on other people’s stories.

To be honest, I was afraid.

The reason was clear.

It was because I overheard women’s stories in the past and was very disappointed.

Thanks to that experience, I tried not to eavesdrop on other people’s personal stories whenever possible.

An arrow that was not shot at me could have been stuck in my heart.

For that reason, when I heard voices coming from Yuari’s break room, I tried to take a step back. I thought that if we were having private conversations with each other, we shouldn’t eavesdrop.

– Take 5 minutes! I’ll give you money!

– Hey. Money is not a problem, I get off work at 6:00. Do you have an appointment?

– You can cancel it. What could be more important than meeting me?

What should I do in this case?

What if they are arguing with each other inside?

When I was lost in my thoughts for a while, I heard a crackling sound from inside the break room.

I also heard a woman screaming.

I opened the door to the break room ahead of my thoughts.

Gi-ik-.

When I opened the door, I saw a man holding Yuari’s wrist in a white coat.

“… Seniors?”

Yuari found me and opened her round eyes. Soon, the man-Lee Jung-hoon also put Yuari’s wrist and said, “Who is it? This is a private space,” He said, frowning.

I was shocked.

Junghoon Lee.

Has this guy forgotten me?

Did you go into a crack together and take care of your back?

But it was well worth it.

Lee Jung-hoon is the 3rd generation chaebol.

There are only three S-class Awakeners in Korea.

I couldn’t help it even if I forgot my face and name that I was dropped from a D-class in a relationship of less than a year. You are such a busy person.

How can you remember my face when you meet hundreds of thousands of people a year and say hello and talk?

Pot-.

Soon after, Yuari shook off Lee Jung-hoon and approached me.

“Senior, did you wait? I have a little problem…. But now that it’s all over, let’s go. Senior, do you like back meat? I know a place that tastes good!”

Swipe-.

Yua Li crossed her arms to me without hesitation.

When I was embarrassed that a woman was crossing her arms, Yuari said in my ear, “Pretend to hang out for a while,” In a voice only I could hear.

I thought I was a sensible person in my own way, so I decided to fit in with this bizarre play. I also liked the smell of apples and cosmetics from Yuari.

Is it perfume?

Anyway, it smelled good.

Since he is a public health doctor from a B-class prospect, he must have made a lot of money, so it must be an expensive perfume. We were able to get out of the building when we thought we would take this chance.

Yua Li kept her arms crossed until she got out of the building and into an empty alley.

Crossing arms with a woman in a white coat was more eye-catching than I thought, so I felt a bit ashamed and ashamed.

“Wouldn’t this be enough?”

When I asked in a quiet alley, Yuari looked around. Then she sighed and fell away from me.

Then she put her hands together in front of me, her big eyes slightly teary-eyed.

“I’m sorry. Were you suddenly embarrassed? Lee Jung-hoon came into the break room on his own and forced himself…. I live thanks to you. It would have been annoying.”

In many ways, it was Yuari who was catching her breath as if she was sweeping away her embarrassment. I was just plain curious and asked.

“I guess we were in contact with each other on a regular basis? Were you two friends? As far as I remember, you and Lee Jung-hoon don’t seem to have any contact….”

I tried replaying old memories in my head.

Yuari was a high school student and quite passive, and Lee Jung-hoon was a popular guy at the time.

A 3rd-generation conglomerate who was born with a passive high school girl and lived with everything he wanted.

Except for being members of the same squad, the only points of contact in life were pretty and handsome.

But what….

When I was staying in D-level, I thought that there must have been a lot of points of contact since both of them were on a winning streak and reached the level of C and B.

Of course, Yuari was frightened.

“Lee Jung-hoon and I are not like that! It’s hard to misunderstand! I’m not dating anyone yet! I hate guys like Lee Jung-hoon!”

“Really? No, I didn’t ask if they were dating, I just asked if they normally interacted with each other. So why is the most famous man in Korea bothering you… ?”

Yuari hated her by saying that they weren’t dating.

Actually, Yuari was a cute and innocent beauty. At the time when he was in high school, he was round and round and cute because he hadn’t lost all his breast meat.

Yuari, who was over 20 and a full-fledged member of society, was a beauty to anyone’s eyes. If Seo Ye-rim was urbanely beautiful, should Yoo-ri say the opposite?

I remembered that the fandoms were also divided in opposite ways because the styles of the two promising women were diametrically opposed, and we had a really great fight.

Soon, Yuari said.

“That’s right, Lee Jung-hoon is a bit of a celebrity. Sometimes they come and do things like prosecutors that shouldn’t be revealed to the media as a celebrity. It must have been like that today.”

At least one internal drug test.

Or what… Like an azoospermia test?

In my imagination, there were only so many prosecutors that shouldn’t be disclosed to the media.

“Anyway, senior! Song! Senior, did you bring your car by any chance?”

Tea?

I was slightly embarrassed by Yuari’s question.

Yuari must have thought that I would have a car, right?

Although I am 27 years old, I have been working as an Awakener since I was young.

But, let alone a car, I was living on a monthly rent.

“I’m a jerk.”

Yua Li trembled as if startled.

Then, “Senior, don’t you have a car? I don’t even have a car! You two look alike!” She said, and she smiled mischievously.

Of course, Yuari and I have different situations and conditions.

I don’t own a car, and Yuari probably doesn’t have a car.

“At the time, if you were a B-class hunter, wasn’t the punishment really good? The health care work I’m doing now would be quite profitable. Why didn’t you buy a car?”

“It’s just that, well, I don’t really like driving.”

# # #

We took a taxi and arrived at an alley where local office workers usually go for dinner. As I was walking down the street, I saw a rather laggy meat restaurant, and it was a place that mainly sold offal meat.

Chiiik-.

Yuari grills meat quite skillfully.

It was quite surreal to see a woman who looked like she was going to cut beef on a date with a rich man and grill the side meat while being hit by smoke.

“Should I bake?”

“No, I don’t eat meat cooked by other people. Do you know how sensitive my five senses became as I awakened my mana? You can bake it the most deliciously with precise timing.”

Chiiik-.

The skill of flipping the meat was quite plausible.

It was only then that I remembered that Yuari’s special ability was ‘super sense’.

If Seo Ye-rim was able to handle flames, Yoo-ri was the type to overcome the situation based on her excellent physical abilities.

Different types.

A great prospect.

Why did you quit field work and become a health doctor?

Has your growth slowed down like me?

I was curious in many ways, but it was a little too much to ask.

“Here, these are all baked.”

Soon Yua Lee served her empty bowl with cooked meat. Overcoming the shyness of eating meat grilled by her junior, she dipped it in sesame paste and put it in her mouth, and her eyes widened.

“They really tasted good?”

I’m not just talking about the person who grilled the meat out of politeness, the real meat was deliciously well-roasted. How could this be?

When I was curious, Yuari said as if she was proud.

“Right? Because I cook well. If other people bake it, it won’t taste like this. I have sensitive senses, so I’m a little fussy about eating!”

Anyway.

With this feeling, I ate the grilled meat.

Neither Yuari nor I were people who didn’t like alcohol, but as soon as both of our faces started to turn red, probably from the hot smoke from the furnace, Yuari spoke.

“So, senior. Congratulations on becoming a C grade this time. I think I heard that she wasn’t giving up…. So now you want to train more and get more T-class cracks, right?”

“Maybe? But it’s different from the old days. I don’t know what C-class or B-class is like these days. How much money can you earn….”

I will be able to do more than when I was in D-class, so my unit price will jump.

While I was licking my lips with such thoughts, Yuari said.

“Personally, I hope that seniors don’t do field work. The higher you go, the dirtier and meaner you will see. There is a reason why they give a lot of money.”

“Really?”

Yua Lee’s expression when she said that was slightly teary-eyed, but at the same time she looked quite serious. She wondered if maybe she was trying to tell her own story.

Couldn’t Yuari stop at Class B because she was dirty and mean?

“Senior, if it’s because of money, find another job. If you’re at level C, I might introduce you to a place I know. As for what….”

It was Yua Lee who took her business card holder out of her bag and rummaged through it.

I said as if to stop Yuari.

“Thank you for caring about me. Well, I’m going to bump into it as far as I can. It’s been a long time since I’ve become C rank, but it’s a shame if I don’t aim for the top. You should seize the opportunity while you have it.”

I wondered how far I could go.

I also liked taking risks by exploring cracks.

It’s like an adventurer who ventures into a strange world.

Also, ‘crack’ was ‘dangerous’ no matter what.

There was a sense of fulfillment in the act of eliminating such danger and saving people.

“But Yuari, you really have become an adult. The high school student who was just crying and scared said that he would introduce you to a job. Time in the world goes so fast.”

I was genuinely amazed.

Then Yua Li covered her mouth with her hand and laughed.

“Sure, I’m an adult now. As for how old I am—”

Yua Li, who was about to say something, stopped her.

And “After….” She sighed.

Was it about 5 seconds after that?

Soon, a man appeared in a meat restaurant selling offal meat.

The neatly dressed figure didn’t melt into this sloppy meat restaurant at all.

Lee Jung-hoon said as he pulled back a chair at our table.

“Yuari, you said you were busy, but you’re barely spending time in a place like this. I’m so sad Didn’t we even talk about marriage at one point?”

“Don’t misunderstand! That’s the story you guys went on your way, right? And aren’t you just losing your face if you make a fuss in a place like this? Are you going quietly?”

Yuuri’s voice was calm, but somehow I felt chills run down her spine. Lee Jung-hoon must have felt it as well, and as if he was nervous, he licked his dry lips with his tongue and moved his gaze to me.

He said.

“I remembered who you were. D-class Hail is right, right? I’m sorry to interrupt you on your date. I want to borrow a doctor here for 5 minutes. It will be over soon.”

His attitude was quite arrogant.

This guy has been like this since I was D-class and this guy was F-rank.

Now that I have nothing better than this guy, Lee Jung-hoon seemed to see me as an underling.

“Can you give me 5 minutes?”

“Why are you asking me that? You should ask the person in question.”

“It only takes 5 minutes! Yuari didn’t listen to you from before!”

Lee Jeong-hoon screamed.

Even so, people’s eyes were gathering towards this place, but their attention was drawn even more. One of the most famous people in Korea, can I scream in public like this?

I thought I would manage my image if I was a celebrity.

When I was thinking about that, Lee Jung-hoon added his words with red eyes, perhaps because of the acting.

“Collock, it will be over soon…. 5 Minutes… Coke… Huh? Hee, hee, hee, hee… Heo-eok… !”

Lee Jung-hoon put his hand on his neck. He even coughed, as if someone caught something in his throat while eating, and he looked very distressed.

Soon he fell to the floor and his body started to tremble.

When I wondered what the hell this was all about, Yuuri held onto Lee Jung-hoon’s neck or opened his airway as if surprised.

“… What? Are there any symptoms of an allergy? Once in the hospital….”

“f*ck, no hospitals. I can’t… !”

Lee Jung-hoon got angry like an angry goblin.

Of course, he collapsed at the end of those words.

When I was at a loss because I didn’t know what it was, Yuari received a phone call from somewhere.

After listening to the story over the phone for about a minute, Yuri Yu answered calmly, “Huh, I understand.” Then she told me.

“Senior. I’m sorry, but I need to get up first. Senior, I’m sorry, but can you help Junghoon Lee? They say there’s a car outside.”

“Uh.”

I went out of the store with Lee Jung-hoon. There was a black car outside the store that looked very expensive.

Soon, people in black suits received Lee Jung-hoon and put them in the car.

And Yuari also got into the passenger seat of the car.

Boo-.

The car finally starts.

Watching him leave, I felt strange in many ways.

What the hell is going on?

Why do I suddenly have allergy symptoms?

ㅁ Kungkong!

Then something popped out of my pocket.

It was a brown haired kong.

“What, when did you come!”
