Possessed an Academy Security Guard

66 – 066. Drinking (1)

On the way home after being discharged. I pondered over the deal Midwinter had offered me the day before.

Combining talent with both education and training. Mid-gyeol was, in name and reality, the most outstanding student among the first year freshmen. Although he was a student, he was second only to Ryu Tae-hyeon in the ranking matches.

Midwinter was never weak. It was just that Ryu Tae-hyun was strong outside the standard. At least until the middle of the work, there will be no one who can fight him one-on-one.

Please help me with my training to beat him. At first, I didn’t understand her request in the middle of winter, but after listening to her words, I was able to figure out the situation.

‘Please be my punching bag.’

The midwinter demand could be summed up in just one word. Of course, Midwinter didn’t really say that. It was just the content.

In mid-winter, he thought that the reason he had no choice but to keep losing to Ryu Tae-hyeon was because of his lack of experience. That was half right. Even though she received an elite education, in the end, the experience of mid-gyeol, a girl from a conglomerate family, and Ryu Tae-hyun, who had gone through all the prenatal battles before entering the academy, would be the difference between heaven and earth.

What Midwinter asked me to do was to supplement those experiences. But what I didn’t understand was why did you bother to ask me. If it’s the Hansung Group’s ability, saving a Dalian opponent would be no task.

To my question, Midgyeol gave a clear answer.

‘Because your ability is the perfect counter to mine.’

A perfect counter. When she first heard it, she didn’t understand it clearly, but asked what she was talking about, but after hearing her answer that followed, she immediately understood.

‘Flame does not burn smoke. Isn’t that something that also appears in One ○’s? I’m the ace and you’re the smoker.’

I wondered if I could use such a metaphor even if I heard a metaphor, but I understood it at once. As she said, flames cannot burn smoke. On the other hand, my smoke can either contain or extinguish her spark. Perfect…… I don’t know, but it must be a troublesome ability from her point of view.

Of course, she didn’t ask me to help with her training after seeing only one of her abilities. She valued my anti-personnel ability, and even my overall combat ability, as much as my psychic powers.

From an officer of the Dawning Corps to a contractor from the underworld, and even Wilhelm. All of the people I’ve faced so far have only been strong.

…… In reality, they were victories achieved after struggling to live and die, but she had no way to know about my circumstances.

To put it all together, for Mid-Gyeol, Ahn Su-ho was a holder of the ability to perfectly counter his own psychic powers in addition to his excellent fighting skills. It would have been perfect for training opponents to develop his anti-personnel skills.

So, she asked me to help her with her training, and after thinking about her for a while, I accepted the offer.

There is nothing to lose by forming a strong relationship with the main character and heroine, Midwinter. Besides, if I could take this opportunity to grow her, she couldn’t be better. It’s because the current midwinter is not enough to endure the harsh development that starts from the middle of the original work.

“…… I’m sure you’ll get the job done.”

As a result, there was not a single ant cub in front of the house he had returned to after a long time. There was no reporter, no scout, no shadow. It was thanks to Midwinter helping her.

-Kiik. Chunk.

When the hinged rusty door opened, a cozy studio was revealed. About two months after being possessed by this world. I thought this was my home now.

I put the fruit or juice that came as a gift for my sick visit into the refrigerator and immediately started preparing for the bath. While I was in the hospital, I was not able to take a shower, so it was uncomfortable. For dinner, I’d just stick to delivery food, and first of all, I wanted to take a shower with hot water.

-Ding-dong!

The doorbell rang then.

“Who are you?”

I asked again because there was no one to come, and I heard a lively voice from beyond the front door.

-This is Ye Ji-won, who lives next door! By any chance, Mr. Ahn Su-ho, was he discharged from the hospital?

The identity of that voice is Ye Ji-won…… So, it was Ji Ye-won. Since he lives next door, he must have noticed my return.

When I opened the door, Ji Ye-won was standing in a boxy white T-shirt and dolphin pants. His hair was slightly damp, so he must have just washed it. Maybe he just got off work.

“Oh, are you all right? If you’re discharged, why don’t you say you’re discharged without a word-“

As she scanned my body from top to bottom, her eyes trembled. That gaze goes back and forth around my shoulder or chest.

“Oh, sorry.”

The car was just about to be washed, so the top was only worn with running shoes. No matter how comfortable they were, they weren’t dressed to greet guests. Besides, it is said that women accept men’s running as something similar to underwear.

“Ah… …. Were you changing?”

Ji Yewon slightly blushed and avoided her gaze. Embarrassed for nothing, I shamelessly scratched the back of my head.

“Uh. I was going to wash it from now on.”

“Yes. I guess so. Would you like to come back later?”

“What did you come for?”

“Just. I’ve just washed up after work. If you haven’t eaten yet, did you try to eat together? What are you going to do for dinner?”

“I was going to have it delivered roughly.”

“I knew that.”

Ji Ye-won smiled at that answer and gently clenched her fist.

“I just got out of the hospital, but I need to eat proper food. I bought the ingredients for Budaejjigae at home. Do you want to eat it together? I prepared enough to eat tomorrow morning too.”

“I like it.”

Actually, I much prefer home-cooked meals to delivery food. So, I usually try to make my own meals whenever possible. Today, I was just discharged from the hospital, so I didn’t have any ingredients, so I was going to order food for delivery.

In the meantime, there was no reason to refuse Ji Ye-won’s dinner.

“It takes about 20 minutes, so I wash slowly. I’ll leave the door open so come in on your own.”

After saying that, Yewon Ji entered my house with a strangely excited expression. As she said, I went to the bathroom without locking the front door.

As soon as she finished her shower and headed back to her house, her pungent smell tickled the tip of her nose.

-Chubby tong tong tong.

When I entered the front door and turned my head, Ye-Won Ji was slicing green onions in the kitchen on one side of the studio. Next to it, the soup that looked like Budaejjigae was boiling.

“Oh, are you here? Are you here soon?”

“My stomach skin stuck to my back, so I washed it quickly. Is there anything I can do to help?”

“Not really? Oh, could you please leave the bowl and spoon for me?”

“OK.”

I squeeze into Ji Ye-won’s side and take out tableware from the cupboard. Unlike the bleak appearance when I came before that, now the scenery of the one-room is quite human. I smiled at the cat’s paw-shaped bowl in the cupboard and headed to the table.

“Huh?”

But there was something strange on the table. A bottle and tall glass with a bright yellow liquid. This… ….

“What kind of champagne is this?”

“That? The other day, manager Albacher gave it to me as a gift. I was supposed to drink alone, but I thought it turned out well. Let’s toast your safe return with that champagne. How is it?”

“Isn’t champagne a little like Budaejjigae?”

“Wow, did you have an advanced taste enough to argue about that? Ah, but I just got discharged from the hospital, so how about some alcohol?”

“Uh… ….”

I was speechless at that question. Miscellaneous thoughts run through my head.

‘…… Come to think of it, I’ve never been here to drink.’

Originally, I was very fond of alcohol. Even so, the reason I didn’t even drink until two months after I possessed it was probably because I didn’t have enough time in my heart.

Thrown into this world with pitiful abilities, your life tomorrow is uncertain, but is alcohol enough? After work, the rest of the time was spent doing strength training and psychic training, so there was no time to drink alcohol. In the meantime, there were one or two special events and dinners, but unfortunately, they all happened while I was in the hospital.

‘I’m not in particularly bad shape.’

There was no physical problem since he had almost poured out the expensive potion. Besides, a bottle of champagne would not send a message to the superhuman body.

I’ve been running desperately for a long time, so wouldn’t it be okay to take a rest today?

– Pong!

While holding down the cork, I unscrewed the wire from the neck of the bottle, and the cork came out with a cheerful sound. The spicy scent of alcohol gently tickled the tip of the nose.

“He plucks it alone without saying anything. Did you miss drinking that much?”

“Uh. I missed you.”

After pouring the champagne, Ji Ye-won brought a bag of budae stew in a wide pot. Budaejjigae was served as a bar snack with little soup and a self-made visual.

“Wow, looking at it myself, it really doesn’t suit me. Budae stew and champagne.”

“Ahahahahaha! It is. Shall we have another glass of champagne then? I have some bottles in the fridge.”

I asked Ji Ye-won with a smile as she looked like she was about to start drinking.

“Do you drink well?”

“Me? I’m full weekly. Criminals and alcohol are inextricably linked. When I wasn’t on a mission, I would go drinking with people in my group once every three days. How are you?”

“I’m not good anywhere.”

It was always my job to take care of the drunk kids at the university opening general meeting. I was confident that I would not lose because I was moderate in terms of alcohol consumption.

“Well, I want to cover it up and drink it.

– Woo woo woo woo.

At that time, my smartphone rang as if Ji Ye-won had stopped talking.

“What? Phone call?”

“Uh. I’ll go out for a bit and make a call.”

I checked the screen and immediately left the front door. Because Ji Ye-Won was a bit difficult to deal with.

When I pressed the call button, a lively voice hit my ear.

-Brother! It’s the sky I heard you were discharged today?

Kang Ha-neul went to visit the hospital after a long time and grumbled that it was after I had already been discharged. I asked her

“I couldn’t reach you yesterday, what happened?”

Since I woke up, I haven’t been able to contact Kang Ha-neul. She didn’t answer her phone calls or text messages. For me who didn’t know her circumstances, I was worried and frustrated.

-Oh, that’s it? It’s no big deal.

“What happened?”

-I just messed with your brother’s contact?

“…… What?”

Kang Ha-neul proudly revealed that he deliberately chewed up my contact. No, is that something to be proud of?

-I needed time to organize my thoughts on how to explain to my brother. About that ability.

At that, I fell silent. In fact, half of the reason I kept trying to contact Kang Ha-neul was to ask about her skills and the cherry blossoms of love.

-If you have been discharged, are you at home now? If it’s okay with you, I’ll go there now. I care about my ears to meet outside…….

“No, I don’t think it will work today. I’m having dinner with someone right now. Or if it’s okay even if it’s late, will you come then?”

– Dinner? With whom?

“It’s Ye Ji-won who lives next door-“

‘Alas.’

Stop answering and hold your breath. It was something I shouldn’t have revealed to Kang Ha-neul, but I inadvertently said it.

‘If she knew I was with Ji Ye-won, she would be very concerned… ….’

As expected, Kang Ha-neul, who heard me, was silent for a while. She didn’t say anything, but soon a cold voice rang through the phone.

-…… Why?

Why? Her deep feelings couldn’t be buried in that short word. Feeling cold sweat running down her back, she said in a voice that I was sorry.

“Uh, that. It’s next door, so he knew right away when I came home. So, to commemorate his discharge, let’s have a meal together. There was no cold dinner at home at the time, and I thought home-cooked food would be better than delivery food, so I tried to take care of myself…… ?”

-Then this must be the house of Ye Ji-won?

When I said yes, she swallowed her breath. I could hear the sound of breathing getting louder and louder.

It was a disaster. Kang Ha-neul liked me. Like the attitude of the past, the name of the skill I used right away is the cherry blossom of love. Ji Ye-won is still confused, but she can definitely say about Kang Ha-neul. She clearly liked me, a human named An Su-ho.

In the meantime, as soon as I was discharged from the hospital, I couldn’t be bothered by the fact that I was having dinner alone with another woman, and at that woman’s house.

‘…… Surely he won’t suddenly come to me with a knife?’

I wonder if there would be such an extreme woman in real life, but this was the world of a novel. Moreover, coincidentally, there were two yandere heroines in . In fact, in the original work, Ryu Tae-hyun suffered something similar, and where is the guarantee that what happened to him will not happen to me?

The moment my thoughts went crazy, Kang Ha-neul quietly told me.

-…… I’ll go there now

“What?”

-Why? No? When it comes to commemorating discharge, the more people there are, the better, right?

That was the right thing to say. However, I could tell even with my eyes closed that Kang Ha-neul’s intentions were not so wholesome. In her mind, the image of the river and the sky approaching me with a smile while holding a blue kitchen knife was played.

“Yeah, that’s true. Still, shouldn’t the landlord give permission?”

-Then ask me. Can i go

“I don’t think I would say no… ….”

-Ask me.

Kang Ha-neul’s voice was cold unlike usual. Feeling uneasy about the change, I asked Ji Ye-won, who was waiting for me. I wondered if it would be possible for one more person to join us.

“Who are you?”

When she answered that question, she said that she was a river and a sky, she had her eyes torn to the side. Soon, a sly smile forms on his lips.

“Yes. Say oh I do not care.”

“Uh, uh uh?”

“If more people are added, the existing dishes will not be enough. I just need to make a few more simple snacks.”

After saying that, Yewon Ji headed to the kitchen. No really?

“Can I really call you?”

“You want me to call you? Even if I really don’t care?”

Ji Ye-Won’s answer with a sly smile somewhere. Out of necessity, I conveyed Ji Ye-won’s answer to Kang Ha-neul. Then she hung up her phone with only one word left: ‘I’m leaving now.’

‘f*cked…… Is it?’

With a cold kitchen knife thrust in front of her eyes, the image of the river and the sky splattering blood from the corner of her mouth shimmered. No, not even in the worst case. First of all, Ji Ye-won and I are stronger than Kang Ha-neul.

‘But I never thought Ji Ye-won would allow this… ….’

Kang Ha-neul’s reaction was expected, but Ji Ye-won’s permission was unexpected. Thinking of the two people who were criticizing each other at the restaurant the other day, I thought they would reject it right away.

‘…… Could it be that Ji Ye-won doesn’t like me?’

Her face became hot for no reason as she pondered over the possibility that suddenly came to her mind. It was embarrassing to assume that the other person liked me even though she hadn’t been confessed to. Of course, Ji Ye-won seems to like me too, right? Perhaps? Maybe I drank a big bowl of kimchi soup by myself?

I scratched the back of her head nervously as her head became more and more complicated. In the meantime, Ji Ye-won was cooking a new snack for her river sky, even humming her own song.

…… He couldn’t even guess what he was thinking.

-Ding-dong!

How long had it passed, Ji Ye-won finally sent me to the front door when the doorbell rang.

A tense moment. I really don’t think that’s going to happen, but the moment I open this door, a blue blade might come at me. I swallowed dry saliva and prepared to activate the breath of the morning star before grabbing the doorknob.

‘I don’t know!’

I turned the doorknob as hard as I could, with the feeling that I would become half as good as I could be.

Now then.

“Hi! Come with me!”

“…… Ok?”

What was beyond the front door was not the river sky, but the vegetable kite. Why is he suddenly?

“Hey Ahn Soo-ho! It’s a graduation party! Then you should have called me! Did you guys just play around with each other without me?! Seriously, what would I have done if I hadn’t run into him on my way!”

The vegetable kite inflates its cheeks and screams.

At those words, my gaze turned to the side of Chae-yeon. There, Kang Ha-neul was chewing on his lips with a dejected expression like a person who had lived the whole world. It was the face of a person who had unintentionally carried an annoying burden.

“Ha ha ha ha… ….”

I have a headache even with the river sky, why did this champi suddenly appear? I don’t know what the hell is going on. What if you have already come? I have no choice but to greet you with tears in my eyes.

“Come inside first.”

…… Please, I hope the end of this sudden development is not just catastrophe.
