Persuasion (2)

‘The Heavenly Demon Goddess!’

I was startled by Jinseowon’s ability.

Along with Seol Joo-hee’s Bing and Baek Shin-gong, Cheonma Godong is one of the most powerful abilities… .

It was the ability of Seol Joo-hee’s greatest enemy, Chun-ma, who appeared in the original novel ‘The Strongest Man’.

‘He’s that angel… ?’

Since I first met Seol Joo-hee, it was almost the first time I was surprised to see a character in the original novel.

Sure enough, the heavenly demon in the novel was portrayed as a vicious and cruel psychopath.

‘Do that with that face… .’

Jinseowon had an appearance far from the angel depicted in the novel.

With a small height that looks slightly shorter than 170, her body stands out.

The teardrops on the left eye area and the doll-like appearance were harmonized with the brown bob cut that reached down to the chin, exuding a luxurious feel.

‘What the hell happened?’

Chunma, which started to appear in the middle, was intense from the first appearance.

The child Seol Joo-hee managed to save was killed like an insect, and then Seol Joo-hee, who had reached Grade A, was knocked down at once.

It was said that whenever a heavenly demon appeared, someone would surely die… .

“It looks a bit pretty. Can you take him too?”

“What do you do when you are beautiful? It’s useless. Are you going to take me for nothing and only curse you?”

However, Jin Seo-won did not receive a love call from anyone.

Because there is no guild to invest money in an unverified F-class hunter.

‘What should I do with this… .’

Even me, who has a scout in my eyes, was not easy to make a decision to sign Seo-Won Jin.

Not anyone else, but a thousand.

No matter how great the potential, I can’t raise a character that grows into the strongest villain who will stop Seol Joo-hee.

‘It would be nice to have some information… .’

Whether the author of the original novel intended it or not, there was very little information about Chunma.

that she is a woman.

It deals with the Heavenly Demon Goddess.

When Seol Joo-hee reached A-class, she was already S-class.

and… .

All that was information was that he was disillusioned with the world and stood on the side of the Demon King of another world.

“… … .”

I hope that you will be in trouble for a while as you see Jinseowon coming out without receiving any attention from anyone.

‘I do not know… . things will work out.’

Shaking off any hesitation, I passed the scouts and approached her.

“Wow… . It looks really urgent.”

“It’s the first time I see your face. Are you new?”

“If you’re a freshman, you should take a kid like that.”

The scouts approached Jin Seo-won, an F-ranked class member, and looked at me and chattered.

“… ?”

I stopped walking and handed the business card I had prepared in advance to Jin Seo-won, who was looking at me.

“I am Do Ji-hyeok, a producer from the Seoul Metropolitan Government and team Seoul City Hall. Can we talk for a moment?”

That moment.

Murmur- murmur-

The scouts who were watching me began to murmur.

“Do Ji-hyuk? Queens?”

“Oh, right! Saw it on the news! After changing teams, are you scouting yourself?”

“I don’t know the real life… . The former Queens producer now even scouts himself… .”

“If Do Ji-hyeok scouts himself, isn’t it really a hit? ?”

“What is the jackpot? Don’t you know when you see that it came out right after winning 1st place in Queens? They are all dead.”

I silently waited for Jinseowon’s answer, ignoring the voices of people who were arrogant.

Jin Seo-won, who had been silently looking at me for a while, glanced at the business card in my hand and finally gave me an answer.

“I have to go to a part-time job. sorry.”

It was supposed to be a refusal.

Moon crack-

The sound of fresh ice coming from the plastic glass unintentionally lets out a sigh.

It’s already the fourth time I’ve had a drink I’ve had sitting at the cafe where Jin Seo-Won works.

By the time she decided to wait for her part-time job to end, it was already close to the truth, but I was ordering each type of drink to avoid hearing about the truth.

‘What should I do this time? .’

While looking at the menu board at the counter, contemplating whether to eat dessert this time to soothe the stomach full of liquid.

“It’s 7000 won.”

Suddenly, Jinseowon, who was welcoming guests, caught my eye.

‘Heaven’s a part-time job.’

As described in the novel, Jinseowon’s personality was not very friendly.

dry, docile.

It was like seeing a doll without emotions, but he was doing a part-time job at a cafe, a kind of service industry.

“… … .”

That time, while observing Jinseowon quietly, completely forgetting to choose the next drink.

“Is this your first face?”

A woman came up to me and started talking to me.

“I don’t know, how did you get enough drinks?”

A well-maintained woman in her 30s introduced herself as the owner of this cafe.

“ah.”

In the end, realizing that the truth had been uncovered, I quickly explained that I was about to order a new drink with my wallet in hand.

Then she covered her mouth and smiled gracefully… .

“it’s okay. You can’t do it any more.”

He smiled softly and quietly took a seat across from me.

‘I’m glad I didn’t rush to the truth.’

I quietly sat down again, smiled a little and thanked her, and she leisurely crossed her legs and asked a question in a soft voice.

“So, what is your relationship with our seowon?”

“… Yes?”

“It’s not like we’re not going to sit for hours, even though we’re not dating. It’s not my boyfriend… . thumb? Or, unrequited love?”

Slightly bewildered by her behavior of arguing in an elegant manner, I handed a business card that I had in my arms and briefly explained the situation.

“Team Seoul City Hall… ?”

“Yes. We are waiting for Seowon to join our team.”

“Ugh… .”

The president showed a strangely lukewarm reaction as if it wasn’t the answer he was expecting, and quietly grabbed his business card and glanced at Jinseowon at the counter, suggesting a question.

“Is Seo-won waiting like this to take her?”

There was a faint affection in her words, which seemed to have been thrown at first glance.

I could see that she cared for Jinseowon quite a bit, and quickly shook her head and brought up the story of Jinseowon.

“Does your boss know anything about the Hunter Team?”

“I just know roughly.”

“I plan to hire Seowon as the main dealer for our team.”

“Are you the main dealer? that… , like Seol Joo-hee?”

“you’re right.”

I sent my deepest gratitude to Seol Joo-hee, who was active in an unexpected place, adding a short explanation and listing the merits of Jinseowon.

“Mr. Seo-Won has the ability of ‘Mugong’. It’s the same kind of thing as Seol Joo-hee.”

“okay?”

Jinseowon’s ability determined by the measuring station is ‘F-rank invincible’.

Her actual ability is a Heavenly Demon God, but her level is still low, so it was measured as a simple martial arts.

“Mugong is a pretty intractable ability. This is because it uses the internal energy of the body, not ordinary magic. But the performance is also certain. If you train enough, you will be able to go up to Grade B and Grade A.”

“Five… . Really?”

“Yes. Seowon-san has a body that is very suitable for handling the martial arts. It’s okay to say things like this, but I have a bit of a knack for martial arts.”

“really?”

The boss looked at me, narrowing his eyes as if in doubt, and I met her gaze and explained calmly.

“Among the hunters I personally trained, there was a person who used martial arts… , maybe the boss knows him too.”

“Do I know?”

“You know Seol Joo-hee, right? No. 1 in that power ranking.”

“… Seol Joo-hee?”

“I was his producer.”

“really!?”

The lady boss screams in surprise.

The eyes of the customers sitting in the cafe turned to her.

“Hey, that person was Seol Joo-hee’s producer? really?”

“I quit, but it was a while ago.”

“Oh my gosh… !”

She abruptly got up and jumped in disbelief, walked over to the refrigerator next to the counter, and brought her a piece of cake and a bottle of apple drink.

“No, you should have told me about that in advance! Come on, eat this!”

It was a bribe.

“It’s not a story to be proud of… .”

“So, what about our vows?”

The president has brought out the story of Jinseowon, shining his eyes with a different perspective,

I thought it was probably because of Jin Seo-won’s family or relatives… .

Turns out, they were just neighbors, not family.

“I’ve known Seowon since I was little. Seowon lived with her grandmother, so my parents took care of me often.”

Jin Seo-won’s parents said that she had an accident while she was crawling.

Since there were no other relatives, her maternal grandmother, who was left alone, took care of her, and Jin Seo-won said that she had been living alone with her grandmother.

By the way… .

“Not long ago, Seo-won’s grandmother also passed away.”

“… then… .”

“As soon as I became an adult, I was left alone. How pitiful… .”

Jin Seo-won, who had been teased for being an orphan since childhood, became truly alone, and the boss, who took pity on it, was writing it as a part-time student.

“Please take our vows. It’s because the kid doesn’t have a lot of attachment, right? However, labor costs are rising these days… .”

The boss was kind to me saying please take me,

I could see how much she loved Jinseowon,

‘If you have such a good person by your side, why… .’

That’s why, I was even more skeptical.

Why did Jinseowon change into such a cruel personality?

Listening to the president’s story, Jin Seo-won’s usual personality is calm.

It is said that no matter how serious it is to meet guests and difficult things happen, he responds calmly by passing everything down.

It was a far cry from the figure of the Chunma in the novel, which was torn without hesitation regardless of age or gender if it was blocked in front of it.

‘What the heck… ?’

As we talked about various things with the president while increasing our questions about Jinseowon, it was time to close the business.

“Seo Won-ah. I’m going to finish today, so go back first.”

“… why?”

“Why? You have someone waiting for you.”

Jin Seo-won looked back at me after a long time and looked at me.

I made eye contact with her with a smile that seemed as harmless as possible,

“… … .”

Jin Seo-won, who was looking at me, turned his head again and had a short conversation with the president.

And after a while.

“… sister. I will go.”

“Go in carefully. Be sure to chat with Jihyuk! Understand?”

“… yes.”

Jin Seo-won, who had left work with the president’s new department, immediately approached me, who was waiting in front of the cafe.

“You suffered. You must be tired, but I don’t think I’m making an unreasonable request.”

“… it’s okay.”

Soulless eyes and dry voice.

It was a subtle difference, but it was definitely different from when I was talking to the lady boss.

‘It won’t be easy.’

Predicting the hardships, I made up my mind to talk to her, recalling the cafe I had found in advance to talk with her.

“There was a cafe nearby that was open until late, would you like to talk there?”

OK.

Jin Seo-won stared at me quietly… .

“… Go home.”

“… yes?”

He invited me to his house.
