Chapter 62

“Hey. Did you do well on the practical test?”

“Me? I think the dog is screwed.”

“Shouldn’t you have worked hard for that?”

“No. The teacher who gave me the problem was just an asshole.”

In the class, a group of close friends were gathering and chatting.

As of now, all of the practical exams at the ‘Elpon’ Academy must have been completed.

But, only one person.

Except for me.

The students gathered in front of me glanced at me and shook their heads.

“But why is he taking the practical test again?”

“Don’t you know? There is a kid who is tied for 1st place, so they say they’re doing a ranking match?”

“Who is the joint first place?”

“‘Kane’ to the ‘Kayen’ family.”

“What… Called?”

The wrong person answered that.

She was Jeong Ha-yeon.

“Uh. What’s the matter?”

“Ah… Nothing.”

“Is Hayeon someone you know?”

“No. Are you hearing the name for the first time?”

“Really?”

“…Yes.”

“By the way, wasn’t Hayeon going to the same academy as you and her?”

“… She doesn’t know everyone at the same academy.”

“Yes. What is it By the way, Ha-yeon, where are you sick?”

“Huh? No? Why? Am I fine?”

“Your expression suddenly darkened a little while ago, so maybe it hurts somewhere?”

“..Ah. What hurts me?”

But contrary to what she said, her hands are now shaking.

It was exactly when she heard the name ‘Kane’ that her hands started to tremble.

Saying that she doesn’t know ‘Kane’ is obviously a lie.

***

Lunch time.

All the students have gone to eat lunch, so the classroom is empty.

Except me and Jung Ha-yeon.

I was just lying face down on my desk because I was tired.

I just need to get some sleep.

Drreuk-

There was the sound of the front door opening.

And the sound of those footsteps was getting closer and closer to where Jung Ha-yeon was sitting.

I glanced sideways to see who it was.

She was Kim Min-seo.

“Yeonah Ha.”

“..Uh.. Huh?”

Jeong Ha-yeon said with a surprised expression.

“You. I don’t even go out to eat, why am I alone? Are you sick?”

“No. It doesn’t hurt anywhere.”

“What is it?”

“No.. Actually, ‘Kane’ is taking a transfer exam to ‘Elphon’ Academy.”

“…What? Really?”

Kim Min-seo said with a firm expression.

“Wait a minute, it’s a bit embarrassing to talk here. There are other people besides you and me.”

Jeong Ha-yeon glanced at me.

“A. Don’t worry, he’s sleeping.”

“Is that so..?”

“Uh. So don’t worry. Rather, that madman is trying to get in here?”

“…Yes. They say they’re taking the transfer test this time.”

“Wow, that idiot Ha-yeon gave you a restraining order.”

“…That’s right.”

“By the way, can I get admission here?”

“Yes. I found it when I searched for it. Even if you enter the academy, if you don’t approach me more than a certain distance, you’ll lose permission.”

“Wow. Aren’t you crazy? How can we not run into each other inside the academy? Is it possible to not approach more than a certain distance inside the academy?”

“…That would be impossible.”

“Wow. Isn’t that crazy guy coming here for that purpose?”

“…I think so.”

Jung Ha-yeon’s hands began to tremble like an aspen tree.

“Yeonah Ha.”

Kim Min-seo held her hand tightly.

“..Uh..Yes”

“Do you have anyone to go with when you leave school today? It’s the day I see you today.”

“…No.”

“Why? You always went home with Radeon. Aren’t you supposed to go with him?”

Hearing that, Jeong Ha-yeon glanced at me and said.

“hahahaha. There’s something wrong with that.”

“I don’t know what’s going on, but in any case, wouldn’t it be nice to go home together today? That idiot..”

“A. Are you okay. Even if I go home alone, nothing will happen.”

“Yeonah Ha. If possible, go home with a boy. No matter who you ask What if that idiot catches up with you?”

“Ah… No. That’s kinda okay.”

“Why?”

“Even if I just say let’s go home together without any intention, the boys think I’m talking to them with a crush on them.”

“Ah..”

“That’s why I saw countless boys who confessed after asking to go home together, so that’s a bit like that.”

“Pretty is not always good.”

Kim Min-seo sighed deeply.

“Then how about going with the girls? It’s at least reassuring.”

“hahahaha… “

Jeong Ha-yeon smiled awkwardly.

“The truth is… I don’t get along very well with the girls in my class.”

“Huh? Did you look great?”

“That’s just what it looks like on the surface, and in fact, I gossip a lot behind my back.”

“Why are you doing this?”

“Maybe… All the boys are only good to me, and I like them, so it must be because they’re jealous.”

“…Ha. They are really bad b*tches. But Jiyoon isn’t like that.”

“Yes. It doesn’t.”

“Then you can go with Jiyoon.”

“Jiyoon says he has an important meeting at work today.”

“Ah. I can’t go with you today too, Ha Yeon-ah. Can’t you go see me today?”

“A. Don’t worry too much Nothing will happen. The request for a restraining order has also been dropped.”

“Yeah.. But be careful.”

****

The sunset was setting outside the window of the ‘Elpon’ Academy.

Drreuk-

The students began to stand up one by one.

“Oh, I was tired all day today. Let’s go to the dorm quickly.”

“Do you want to go to the dormitory and order pizza?”

“Aren’t you caught by the supervisor?”

“You don’t have to be caught. Sick child. There is a separate secret passage.”

Ten minutes later.

The voices of the children who were talking in the classroom disappeared before I knew it.

When I was about to stand up too.

I saw Jeong Ha-yeon, who was sitting in the seat to my left, unable to get up from her seat.

“…”

I can guess why he is doing that.

Her For her, her ‘Kane’ must have been quite traumatic.

I’ve been stalking Jung Ha-yeon ever since we were in the same academy.

Nearly 7 or 8 years.

‘Kane’ is actually the illegitimate son of the ‘Kayen’ family.

As a rule, the ‘Ken’ family does not recognize her illegitimate children as members of her family.

However, Kane’s phantom ability was too great to be ignored.

The Lord put one condition on him.

She said she would accept her as a member of the ‘Ken’ family on the condition that she never go to see her own mother again.

She agreed and ‘Kane’ never met her own mother again.

And the affection he didn’t receive from his mother turned out to be a twisted affection for Jeong Ha-yeon.

He tries to get the girl he likes the love she couldn’t get from her mother.

The problem is, it’s just a one-sided desire.

Because Jeong Ha-yeon has no intention of giving him affection.

“Hmm..”

I glanced sideways at Jeong Ha-yeon.

She was still trembling with her hands, seemingly uneasy.

‘It’s a bit difficult to just ignore it and go.’

She is one of the main supporting characters in this world.

Later, when the demons invade, she will be of great help.

The problem is… How should I say it?

It was a bit ambiguous to just blindly ask to go together.

“Umm..”

I’ve been thinking about it for a while.

This seems to be the only answer.

“Hey.”

I told Jeong Ha-yeon.

“….”

However, Jeong Ha-yeon did not answer.

It seemed that only bad thoughts were running through her brain.

Maybe he didn’t even recognize what I called.

I poked her on the shoulder.

She looked behind her, startled.

Then he looked at me and let out a sigh of relief.

“..Ah, it’s a surprise. Was it you You were surprised to find out he was crazy.”

“Who is that madman??”

“…You don’t know. It is purely my problem.”

“… Hey. Do you want to go to school together today?”

“No.”

Her answer was quick.

“Why?”

“You don’t have to know.”

“You don’t need to know do you mean that ‘Kane’ is stalking you?”

“…You..What are you saying now?”.

“Why not?”

“…No. That’s right, how did you know that? I only remember Min-seo talking to anyone.”

“….”

“…Did you really investigate me?”

She looked at me with a cold expression and said.

“… You treat me like a stalker.”

“Or how did you think?

“I heard it by accident. At lunchtime.”

“..What? You weren’t sleeping then were you?”

“Uh. I happened to hear it by accident.”

“…Ha ha.”

Jeong Ha-yeon frowned.

“I didn’t want anyone to find out about this.”

“What. So are you going with me or not? You decide.”

Jeong Ha-yeon listened to me and said with her eyes narrowed.

“..Why are you going with me? You don’t know what happens to me.”

What are you talking about?

I don’t know.

If you’re not there, the story won’t progress later.

“It’s not something I know. What are you talking about?”

“…Uh…Uh?”

Jeong Ha-yeon stuttered her words as if she was embarrassed.

“No, I don’t care what happens to you. What the hell are you talking about?”

I glared at her with her serious expression.

Without Jeong Ha-yeon, the main story wouldn’t progress.

If she disappears, the future of this world will cease to exist.

Jeong Ha-yeon rolled her eyes here and there as if taken aback by my reaction.

“…No.. Well.. That’s what they say..”

“..Don’t say things like that carelessly in the future. Whatever happens to you has nothing to do with me.”

“..Uh..Uh. Sorry. I made a mistake on this.”

I don’t know why, but she apologized to me.

“So are you going with me? Will tell Now you have to lock the classroom door and leave.”

I said while carrying my school bag.

Jung Ha-yeon said, “She looked at me for a long time.

There was such a long silence.

Soon she nodded her head as if she had made up her mind.

“…Then let’s go together for today.”

She said in a low voice like an ant crawling.

“Uh.”

“Don’t get me wrong.”

From noble mtl dot com

“What misunderstanding?”

“That.. So.. I am not going with you because I have feelings for you.. Um.. Yes. It’s purely because of the stalking of ‘Kane’. Don’t get me wrong.”

Who said what?

“I wake up now. Follow me quickly.”

She rushed after me.
