Chapter 274 – The Last Hero #2

Skin-colored stockings, and black leather hot pants,
High heels that cover the ankles,
A choker wrapped around one thigh,
A white round neck tee that fits snugly and even a leather jacket.

The combination of white, light red, and black was unexpectedly suitable.
I nodded slightly as I admired Sylvia coming out of the dressing room.
It means very, very satisfied.
Sylvia, who approached me with a bubbling expression, said.

“Did you really turn…? You want me to wear this…? I don’t want to die…”

I want to scream, but it’s funny how I lower my voice because there are staff and customers.

“You are wearing it.”

“This…!”

Sylvia, who was about to burst into anger, sat down next to me as if she felt burdened by the gaze directed at her.
And then whispered

“It means I don’t want to go around wearing this…! You look so vulgar. What is this? People are watching…!”

“I wonder if it’s because it’s pretty…”

“Change it to something else. At least cover her thighs with a coat…”

“Can I just cover my thighs? Is it okay if it comes down to about your knees?”

“That’s not what I meant…”

“Okay. Then finish it like that.”

“Hey, wait…”

I took advantage of Sylvia’s panic and bought a black coat from her store.
After quickly completing the calculation of the clothes she was wearing, I grinned at Sylvia, who was glaring at me with her irritated eyes.

“The calculation is finished. If you want to throw it away, throw it away.”

“Ha… I’m really going crazy… Really…”

She stamped her feet, and in desperation, put on the coat I handed her.
It’s a pity that everything is covered, but well… It’s okay because when we’re alone, we can see it to our heart’s content.
When you do it later, you only need to tear the middle of your pants.

After leaving her shop, Sylvia put her hands in the pockets of her coat and grumbled.

“The coat is too thin…! It looks cold…”

“It’s inside a department store, so why don’t you say it’s cold?”

“What if I go outside! I don’t know the top, but the bottom… It’s too much to hold on with just stockings…! The wind will blow all the way down…”

“It won’t be cold as it will only be indoors anyway, so why are you so dissatisfied…”

Sylvia raised her eyes at the way she said it was nothing, and weakly kicked my butt.
Then she examines the inside of her coat and sighs.

“Ha… It’s annoying… It’s like a fashion for a girl who just turned 20 to go to a club in Hongdae…”

“You have adapted well to Earth. You know that kind of fashion.”

“What the hell is that choker on these thighs… If the doctor sees it, he’ll say he’s out of his mind… I’m going crazy…”

I want to solve it right away, but I’m glad to see you stay still because I like it.

“Would you like to do one for your neck? Shall we go shopping?”

“Shut up. Really die?”

After letting her swear words flow into her ears, I grabbed Sylvia’s hand.
Her mouth was watery at the action, as if she was treating her lover.
Her cheeks begin to blush a light red, like her own hair color.

You have to do this to be calm.
I held her hand affectionately with Sylvia like that and headed to the parking lot.

**

Silvia is fiddling with her new red cellphone in the car.
She saved my number first and smiled brightly.
A smile that brightens the inside of a car full of dull colors.
It was really beautiful, especially when I smiled, the shallow wrinkles at the top of her nose with my punctures.

“Has Adele bought a cell phone yet?”

“Yes.”

“What is Adele saying?”

“What?”

“The fight with me… That…”

“I told you. He wants to reconcile.”

“Is that the end? Talk in detail.”

At her Silvia’s urging, I put her car back in her automatic driving mode, and I turned around and looked at her.

“I didn’t say anything too long. It felt like I was intentionally avoiding talking about Mr. Sylvia.”

“…. Okay…? Could it be that Adele… That…”

I brought up the story Sylvia wanted to tell first.

“You think you noticed our relationship? No. There was no sign of that.”

“…. Yes…”

“Why are you asking?”

“Because I… Made a mistake when I was arguing with Adele… Actually… Adele said I was vulgar, but then it suddenly came up… If I was vulgar, Jihyeok would be vulgar too…? Because I have a heart…, She said.”

I knew.
Because I was listening through the device.
She was so anxious that Adele would bring it up… She was so glad she got through it.
Perhaps she thought Sylvia was lying to piss her off.

“I see.”

Sylvia’s head was lifted at the calm tone.

“Aren’t you angry…?”

“Why are you angry? It’s true that I have feelings for Sylvia.”

“…..”

Sylvia, whose complexion brightened at my words, hurriedly said,

“Oh, I’ll be careful in the future…”

Shouldn’t it be the exact opposite?
She should be more confident in the future, try to take me away from Adele, that’s right.
Between Adele and between me.
If I try to catch both of these rabbits, I’ll be in big trouble… I’m fine with that.

I put my hand on Sylvia’s thigh and felt the soft feel of the stocking wool.
Then Sylvia stopped me with only her words.

“Come out… Stop touching…”

“I didn’t like wearing shoes, but I guess I got used to it? I see. Instead, I’ll touch you to my heart’s content later.”

“Later…?”

“Yes, later.”

“…., Do whatever you want…”

Embarrassed and giggling, I arrived at the art center where Boyoung was performing while enjoying a drive with Sylvia.
After eating around and watching a movie, it was time for a performance.

**

The hall had 3,000 seats.
Considering Chae Bo-young’s reputation, it could be said that she was very easy-going.

We were in the corner of the venue.
In terms of seating, it’s the cheapest place.
However, because the scale was small, the stage was well visible, and there was also a large screen, so there was no problem checking Stella.

I sat down and threw away the LED light stick distributed at the entrance in the corner, then turned my head when I heard Sylvia’s complaints from the side.

“You said you had a hard time getting a ticket, so this seat…”

“Which seat did you want?”

“I thought it would be the front seat, or the place where the officials next to the stage were… You said you were close with the agency president?”

“I only got the information in advance, there is no such thing as a VIP seat.”

“It’s just Hogu… Hogu.”

Sylvia is especially ticklish today.
It seems that the unscrupulous fashion hidden under the coat is quite disturbing.
She soon showed her interest by shaking the cheering stick and trying to take a closer look inside her.
Then, when the lights in the hall were turned off and the blue light hit the curtains on the stage, my eyes quickly lit up.

Soon the curtains open to the left and right,

Wow-!

A thunderous roar echoed throughout the hall.
Chae Bo-young, wearing an innocent dress that catches the eye, looked around at the audience and smiled beautifully, and soon she started singing.

“You don’t say hello and start right away?”

“Chae Bo-young said that when she holds a concert, she always says hello with the lyrics of the opening song.”

“Okay…?”

Chae Bo-young conveys the emotions contained in her lyrics with a dreamy and elegant tone.
The way she coordinated with her backing dancers through simple choreography was also very cool.
Sylvia, as if deeply immersed in Boyoung’s music, watched the opening with her mouth open.
She even waved a cheering stick with the person sitting next to her from the second song onwards.

She thought that this kind of cultural life she would not like very much, but it was surprising.
Are you able to concentrate well thanks to the sound equipment installed in the hall?
Whatever it is, I hope she can fight Adele and put her troubles aside for a moment.

I listened to the song in silence and looked around the stage.
From what Boyoung said, Stella’s brother was wearing a fluorescent vest and she would be right down the stage.

‘That’s him.’

A foreigner can be seen among the staff below the stage.
Light brown hair, short like mine.
The size is normal. I focused my eyesight as much as I could, and I could see the outline of the face.

Handsome like a man
His expression is overflowing with confidence and composure.
After all, the older sister is beautiful, so the younger sister also has the same appearance. It’s a blessed gene.
But in my eyes, I see nothing but a scapegoat and prey for Stella’s corruption.
What did he say his name was… Alex?

‘Enjoy the rest of your life.’

Do whatever you want to do while you are alive.
With that guy’s appearance clearly in my head, I watched the performance with Sylvia.

Part 1 ended after about an hour.
As soon as the stage was over, Boyoung came down and did fan service.
Sylvia, who was watching her, lamented.

“I wish I had come with Adele…”

Then she flinched, then turned to me and corrected her words.

“Ah, I really like coming with you… I hope you don’t misunderstand me.”

“I am not misunderstanding. I’ll let you two come to the next concert.”

“Yeah… Wait a minute, I need the bathroom…”

“You want to do it there?”

Sylvia looked at me with her pitiful eyes, shook her head and stood up.
The bathroom is nice, but…

Part 2 began with the timing of Sylvia’s return to her.
The originally planned performance time was 2 hours, but Boyoung sang for 3 hours.
In the middle, she brought her fan’s mobile phone and took a selfie.
A pro is a pro. She has excellent skills and good fan service, so it was only natural that she would be extremely popular.

Boyoung, who had sung 35 songs and finished her final song, sat quietly on stage and adjusted her headset mic as her audience requested her encore.
And then she had some surprising news.

-The last encore will be sung by someone else, not me.

A murmur was heard from the audience.
It’s Boyoung’s performance, but someone else sings an encore?
Sylvia also looked at me puzzled.

“What are you talking about?”

“I don’t know either.”

And Boyoung, she waited until their turmoil subsided, then raised the corners of her mouth and pointed to her side.
At the same time, the empty floor opened in a wide rectangular shape, and someone came up on the stage in a lift.

The person who came up was a woman.
The last hero I’ve been waiting for.

She flipped her long hair to one side with her moderately thick wave perm.
The blue wall under the finely trimmed eyebrows catches her eye.
His eyes were uncharacteristically good for Westerners.
A cute and pretty appearance that Asians love very much.

The blue dress embroidered with flowers further doubles the overall innocence.
While wearing her guitar, she bowed her upper body and greeted the audience.

-Oh, hello… I’m Stella Haley. It is an honor to meet you here. I will work hard, please take good care of me!

The way she introduces herself with a voice like a oriole is really beautiful.
She must have studied Korean hard, but she was also proficient.
When the audience who saw her beauty on the big screen burst into exclamation, Boyoung smiled brightly and said,

– Let me introduce you. Stella Haley, a new trainee at our agency, and my student.

At the word “Disciple,” The crowd in the audience grew louder.
Boyoung raises a disciple? It was truly something that would turn the entertainment industry upside down.
The audience, who were momentarily confused, soon burst into cheers for Stella.
A few people had a heated discussion, saying that this is why Boyoung went into hiding for a while.

Stella, who repeated her greetings several times, sat down in the seat her Boyoung had made for her and put her hands on the strings of her guitar.
Afterwards, as her audience quieted down, she resumed the song she was singing as Boyoung calmed her down with a single pluck of her string.

Beautiful and clear tone.
People soon fell in love with Stella’s voice and stopped breathing.
Sylvia also enjoyed Stella’s song with a similarly hazy look on her face.
Then she shuddered in shock.

Woo-woo-!

Because she heard a clear sound coming from inside her handbag.

‘Aether responds.’

As if hearing and responding to Stella’s voice, Aether made noise in time with the rhythm of her song.
It was a very subtle sound that I couldn’t hear unless I focused my hearing.
Singing joy in my heart, I watched the stage as calmly as possible.

Sylvia, who was checking inside and Stella with the zipper of her purse slightly open, suddenly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her out of the hall into the hallway.

“What is it? I was listening in the middle of the day… Why is this?”

When I grumble, frowning at her, she makes a fuss about her and bangs her on my arm.

“Jihyeok…! First…”

After looking around her, she confirmed that there was no one in the hallway, but she seemed anxious, so she took me to the bathroom.

“You want to do it now? The performance is over soon, so can you bear with it?”

Ignoring my pranks, she rummaged through her purse and pulled out a small hexagon.
It was the device locker.

“Now, stop kidding, look at this…!”

“Suddenly what…”

I was about to scold Sylvia, but when her storage box was shining, I bit her mouth shut.
The last Aether that found its owner was shining pure white.
Pure white was also the symbolic color of Stella Haley, whose stage name is Rosé, who flutters elegant white hair and wields a whip.

‘When he calms down, he’ll come back to rainbow colors.’

Finally, all the Aethers were activated and gathered in one place.
From Sehwa to Adele, in order, sky blue, light green, pure white, light red, and gold.
However, Sehwa and Yuria’s have already been corrupted and turned purple, and Sylvia and Adele will soon be as well.

Pure white Aether struggling alone among the ominous purple crystals.
You can see it gradually being eroded and colored, you can see it.
Once activated, the goal is achieved.

“This, this…!”

Sylvia speaks to me who is unable to follow her words with her mouth wide open.

“Aither, who hadn’t responded since that Stella started singing until now, made noise and even lit up. The fit is clear…!”

“What nonsense… How many people there are…”

“I can tell. You can tell that Stella Haley is the last Aether fitter.”

“Are you a shaman? How do you know?”

“Oh really…! It’s frustrating, I’m going crazy… You did that! Aither and fitters will be drawn to each other like fate…! Sehwa and YuRia said the same! It’s hard to explain, but it really happened…!”

Know. Calm down.
It sounds like you’re about to burst out laughing.
If that’s the case, it’s hard to act.
I looked at Aether, who was shining, with a straight face.

“Then… Let’s go back and check it out.”

“Ah Okay…”

Although she was speaking seriously, Sylvia’s expression was very bright.
She seemed to feel great joy at meeting a new colleague.
