Persuasion (5)

6 pm.

“”thank you for your effort!””

After finishing training on time and leaving the team at work, I headed to the restaurant I had reserved in advance with Jin Seo-won as scheduled.

“I consider it.”

We arrived at a family restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere.

Actually, I could have found a better restaurant, but I purposely chose this place because I thought Jinseowon would be uncomfortable.

“I’m living today, so you can eat comfortably.”

“… thank you.”

So we shared the menu that the staff brought and decided to choose what we wanted to eat… .

Jin Seo-won, who was scanning the menu, began to glance at me.

“Did you pick everything?”

“… Not yet.”

It seemed like he didn’t know what to choose.

“I think it would be good to order this and share it with us, what do you think?”

I pointed to the popular menu set on the front page of the menu.

Then she quietly looked at the menu I pointed to and… .

He nodded his head and quietly said yes.

After all the food we ordered came out.

“… I will enjoy this food.”

“eat a lot.”

I pretended to eat the soup, and carefully looked at the Jinseowon on the opposite side.

Jin Seo-won, who had been staring at the steak in the center the whole time, swallowed and carefully picked up a fork and knife, but was wandering with his hands lost as if it might be good.

‘You seem to like meat.’

Watching her like that, I picked up the Chuck Knife, Morro nothing.

“Shall we cut this in advance?”

Then he cut each piece of meat into bite-size pieces and placed them on a plate in front of her.

“Is it okay if it’s this size?”

“… thank you.”

Jinseowon, who gave a soft thank-you, swallowed his saliva again and put the meat in his mouth… .

“… !”

As if the taste was quite satisfactory, he opened his eyes and began to lick his mouth hard.

‘There is a cute corner.’

It feels a little different from Hanna Bang, who openly sheds her cuteness.

If Hanna Bang was more like a puppy wagging her tail… .

Jinseowon was like a cat that showed off her cuteness.

“Come on, let’s eat this together.”

Maybe it was because my heart was being used, so I took care of Jinseowon throughout the meal.

At first, she also showed a subtle reaction, as if it was burdensome, but as she continued to take care of it, she quietly accepted it as if she had gotten used to it.

“… Whoo… .”

“I’m full?”

Jinseowon nodded her head with satisfied eyes and gently put down her fork.

And while she drank a drink and licked her lips.

‘Now.’

Watching the timing the whole time, I came up with an allusive story to help her digest.

“The magic stone you revealed earlier was really cool. No one can do that… . Is this really your first time?”

“… yes.”

“Hey, that’s great… .”

Jin Seo-won blushed as if he couldn’t get used to the compliments.

I continued pouring out sweet words that were pleasant to listen to.

“Really, I think Seowon is the most talented person I have ever met. It was the first time I ever dealt with magic. Manipulating magic is purely the realm of the senses… . He must have been talented because he resembled his parents.”

Then, she gently changed the subject and brought up the topic of her future.

“Are you preparing anything special? Getting a job or going to college or something like that.”

“… No.”

“I see… . With that level of talent, a high-level guild would be able to break through the doors. Does the Hunter have no intention of doing anything at all?”

“… yes.”

I thought of her as if I was just wondering, so I nodded my head indifferently, as if it was a good thing, and made a suggestive suggestion.

“Then, would you like to work with me?”

“… yes?”

“Seowon is really like a younger brother… . No matter how much I think about it, I think it’s very sad that Seowon’s talent is rotting away. I have gold and silver treasures in my hands, but throwing them away is a waste.”

“… Uh, I… .”

“Oh, I didn’t mean to be a Hunter. I’m not a hunter, am I? Producer.”

She quietly shuts her mouth and tilts her head as if she doesn’t understand.

I made eye contact with her and gave a brief explanation.

“Unlike other producers, I am also working as a coach or scout. Whatever I say, I’m better than most people. Even though I have the same ability to handle magic as Seowon-san, I don’t do dangerous things. Yes?”

Jinseowon nodded slowly as if she agreed with me,

I gently raised the corners of my lips and continued to appeal.

“I want to give Seowon a chance. A chance to save your talent. To be honest, there is no better producer in this industry than me. If you work with me, you will never regret it.”

It sounded like a scammer even when I said it, but when I looked at it, none of it was wrong.

Because I am a competent producer, and Jin Seo-won has talent.

“Of course, in the process, there may be training to the extent of handling magical powers like today. But in fact, this is a natural part. The words of people who can’t even handle magical powers are not credible, right?”

“… Yes.”

Jinseowon nodded and sympathized with me as if possessed by my words.

It seems to be slowly starting to shake.

“Just one month. How about going out on weekdays and learning about work until the day the title loan ends?”

“… Weekdays?”

“yes. It’s hard to get from Chuncheon to Seoul… . I’ll find a residence hotel where I can stay in Seoul and help you commute.”

Actually, there is no reason to let her go to work, but in order to understand Heavenly Demon God Gong as quickly as possible, I had to stick with her even a little longer.

“ah. I’ll tell you just in case… , I don’t say this to anyone. You can ask your team members. You may be thinking, ‘I’ve only revealed one magic stone’… . I believe in my eyes and invest in Seowon’s future. In fact, it’s cheaper than that.”

“… … .”

Jin Seo-won quietly turned his gaze away as if he was in trouble for a moment.

I won’t force it, so I called the staff and finished the calculation after adding the words to think slowly.

and.

“… I’ll talk to you.”

I was able to hear a positive response from Jinseowon.

same time.

Queens office.

“Yura. I’m also trying… .”

“Captain. It’s not going to be an effort.”

Kook-il was having a conversation with Hong Yu-ra, who stopped by for an interview.

“The gate is a dangerous place even if hands and feet touch each other. As a team leader, I cannot accept going to the gate like this.”

Hong Yu-ra was worried about the recently subtle relationship between Seol Joo-hee and Lim A-rin.

Arin Lim suddenly started arguing that what had happened and that even if her head was broken, she should believe in Do Ji-hyuk and call him back.

Seol Joo-hee, who was watching such a situation, was displeased and was grinding her teeth.

“I wish the guild would make some adjustments to the schedule. Me too, and the kids. I need time.”

That’s why Hong Yu-ra asked the team members to give them time… .

“schedule… . uh… .”

Kook-il could not readily accept her request.

It’s not easy to cancel a schedule you’ve already made.

“Yeah, first… . I’ll try my best too… .”

The only thing they can do is ask for forgiveness when they get stuck between the Cheonhwa Group and Queens.

If he didn’t roll the Queens somehow, he could be decapitated.

“If it continues like this, I can’t help it either.”

“… Yura. request. Tune the kids as much as you can… ! Joohee and Arin have only you… !”

“So that’s what I’m talking about. Please shorten the schedule.”

“That, yes… ! The schedule is… . I’ll try to adjust the schedule as much as possible! But, you must go to the gate… ! There is only a difference of 1200 points from Black Rose right now! If I lose 1st place this time, I’m really dead… !”

Gok-il was embarrassed by the young Hong Yu-ra and begged for his pardon.

“Please save me just once!”

Hong Yu-ra felt a strange sense of incongruity when he saw Kok-il desperately begging as if his life was at stake… .

“… ?”

She didn’t want to say anything, then left the commander’s room and left the room.

“… driving me crazy… .”

The moment I sat down with a sigh filled with worry.

“Captain.”

A woman’s voice reached his ear.

“!”

Guk-il was startled and hurriedly got up and looked in the direction the voice came from.

He wrinkled his face as if he had seen something he couldn’t see, and then, with an awkward smile, cautiously spoke out.

“Go, all of a sudden, what’s going on… ?”

“I have something to tell you.”

“… uh, uh… ! I see! okay… . … Um, what can I say?”

The owner of the troubled voice is… .

“I want to give you a present for your daughter.”

It was Im Arin.

a few days later.

“Hannah. Can you come and see me for a second?”

“Yep!”

Bang Han-na was training with Do Ji-hyuk.

“Get in the same posture you did when defending a while ago.”

“uh… . like this?”

“Well. Stay there for a moment.”

“… ?”

Do Ji-hyuk went back to Han-na Bang, who had taken a defensive posture, and placed a hand on her shoulder and gave instructions.

“Just lower your waist a little.”

“… Is it like this?”

“A little more.”

‘Producer. You have pretty big hands… .’

Bang Han-na was surprised by Do Ji-hyuk’s hand, which she could feel through her combat uniform, and lowered her posture little by little.

But then.

“It should be lower.”

Do Ji-hyuk gently removed his hand, placed his hand on her back, and began to give her strength.

“… !”

Do Ji-hyeok’s actions were literally close to a simple map, with no meaning or heart… .

‘Everything is reaching… !’

Hanna, who has a weak back, reacted sensitively.

“… this, like this… ?”

“okay. This level should be lowered so that the center of gravity does not shoot… . … it’s okay?”

“… yes, yes… ! I’m totally fine… !”

Around that time, Hanna Bang fully enjoyed Do Ji-hyuk’s interest and even started to enjoy the hardships of training.

“Producer!”

Suddenly, Gyuri Han approached and delivered some news to Ji-hyuk Do.

OK.

“really!?”

Do Ji-hyuk smiled brightly like a child who received a gift and was happy with it,

‘… What are you talking about… ?’

Hanna Bang had a small doubt about his unfamiliar appearance.

“Hannah. I have some business to do, but would you like to do it first?”

“Ah yes!”

Do Ji-hyeok let Han-na Bang into the booth and left the room for a while with a smile.

Hanna Bang looked at his back and quietly entered the booth… .

“Whoa… !”

After finishing one set right away, she unconsciously looked around and looked out of the booth to find Do Ji-hyuk.

and… .

“… uh?”

I found Do Ji-hyeok and Jin Seo-won standing side by side and having an honest conversation.
