Chapter 94 – Discovery

A sensor in the front door detected me and lit an orange light.

“Well…?”

After taking off my shoes, I frowned when I saw a person in the living room.

“Yuri, what are you doing with all the lights off?”

At those words, YuRia’s shoulders trembled.
Calling him Yuri reminds me of Song Ji-hyeok.
She looked at me with a trembling voice.

“Dad…”

“What happened? I can see the worry in your voice.”

“Do you have time to talk…?”

“Of course. Come and change your clothes.”

“Yes…”

After entering the master bedroom, I quickly changed into comfortable clothes and came out to the living room.
Turning on the auxiliary light, I took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator and handed it to YuRia.

“What kind of beer is this…?”

“It’s good to drink when you’re in deep trouble. Even low-alcohol alcohol gives a refreshing feeling to the head. After living in this body, I could understand it.”

Laughing weakly, YuRia took her beer and opened the bottle cap with her hand.
It’s kind of scary to see you do that casually.
Then she opened the lid for me and took a sip of her drink.
The corner of Yuria’s mouth went up slightly after making a kyaa sound.

“It’s really nice.”

“Right? I’m sorry I didn’t toast you, but…”

I sighed and sat down next to her, looking back at her.

“Now, tell me. What worries do you have?”

“…. Dad.”

“Yes?”

“What do you think about using force to dominate your subordinates?”

“You mean… A tyrant? Or do you mean a despot with all dominion? If it’s the latter, the answer is out there. Think back to the days of the kingdom when I ruled. What those days were like.”

“It’s the former.”

“Hmm… It probably depends on the situation. If the ruler has overwhelming power, he will not destroy the country. Even if the people say that the monarch is a dark army.”

YuRia bit her lower lip.
She’s thinking of tyrat.

“Our kingdom… Was destroyed by Tyrat, who possessed such overwhelming power. You know. Not only my mother, but also Aaron and the royal wizards… All the others were killed by the monsters.”

“Yes.”

“Aren’t you resentful?”

“Of course I feel resentful. Every day I dream of tearing him apart. But apart from my feelings, if Tyrat conquers Earth, he will rule it just as well as he did in Erandel.”

Yuria put on an expression of disbelief.

“Nonsense… Do you know what Dad is talking about?”

“She just answered objectively. Tyrat has power. Numerous monsters gathered under the Demon King give their allegiance to him. The name Demon King is his strength. It is also a very overwhelming power. Have you ever heard of demons causing trouble?”

“Oh, no…”

“Every time I die from Lee Se-hwa, you, and Song Ji-hyeok, I faithfully carry out my orders without raising any rebellion. Why? Because the name Demon King is fearful and respectful.”

“…..”

YuRia’s body trembled.
This is because words similar to Song Ji-hyeok’s ‘Respect comes from fear’ came out of Kim Tae-gon’s mouth.

“If the power is insufficient, the monarch will disappear due to a coup or an uprising… If the power is so strong that no one can surpass it, if the subordinates do not even want to rebel… I think rule by force is good. .”

“Really…You think so?”

“If you think about it apart from personal feelings… Yes. If I had the same strength as him, the kingdom would not have perished. Wary of our strength, Tyrat would never have thought of an invasion. We could have enjoyed peace for a long time.”

“…..”

“Even if a war broke out, countless strong warriors gathered under my name would have risked their lives to fight the demons of Tyrat.”

Yuria jumped up from her seat.
The beer bottle tipped over and spilled out, but she didn’t care.
Yuria entered her room and slammed the door shut.

I silently wiped off the spilled beer and went into the room and smiled.
Yuria will now ask the three of them about this topic.
Sehwa, Dr., And Yoo Seung-hyun.
Kim Tae-gon defended Tyrat, and Se-hwa must be the same.
On the other hand, the doctor and Yoo Seung-hyun will oppose the rule by tyrants.
Then the composition becomes 2:2.

But the numbers game like 2:2 or 4:0 was not important.
What really matters is the degree of trust.
Yuria believes in Kim Tae-gon the most after Song Ji-hyeok, who has already been imprinted as an absolute being.
After that, Sehwa, Yoo Seung-hyun, and Baksa, respectively, even if these three were combined, there was a big difference in the credit rating of Kim Tae-gon, the father.
Moreover, Yuria is already assimilated into my path.

To put it simply, YuRia followed Kim Taegon’s opinion no matter what answer she received from the three.
Although he was shocked by Kim Tae-gon’s answer, he would sincerely open up to me once that was sorted out.

**

The next evening, Yuria met Yoo Seung-hyun.

-Hello, Mr. Seunghyun.

-Hello…

Yoo Seung-hyun paused before saying hello.
You saw Yuria’s nails.
Light red. Besides, he sees Yuria’s picture on the Internet and knows that she is the Beast Slayer.
If you have an idea, I’m sure you’re suspicious.
Let’s see where else

– Why… Do you?

Yuria’s question with a puzzled look on her face.
Yoo Seung-hyun answers.

-It’s nothing. Did you do new nails?

At those words, YuRia felt embarrassed and touched her hand.

-Ah yes. How about it?

-Well…It suits you…

– It doesn’t look like that at all, does it?

-Wait, um… I was reminded of work. Shall we go eat?

Yoo Seung-hyun shook his head and returned to his bright face.
I thought my mentality would explode, but it can be restored with just one turn of the head?
Did this grow unexpectedly?

The two left Handae Street and walked down the sidewalk to reach the restaurant.
The place Yoo Seung-hyun made a reservation for was a pretty good restaurant.
The guests are polite, and the old-fashioned atmosphere exudes.
Yoo Seung-hyun showed off the manner of removing Yuria’s chair and sat down.

-Thank you.

Originally, it would have been a somewhat overprotective behavior, but Yuria liked it.
It looks like Aaron was drawn from that figure.
Yoo Seung-hyun immediately ordered food from the waiter.
Skillful workmanship. From Yoo Seung-hyun’s point of view, it is clear that it is an unfamiliar place, but there is no hesitation in ordering.
I’d do some research beforehand. It’s quite

After finishing his order, Yoo Seung-hyun brought his head closer to Yuria as the waiter disappeared.

-That… YuRia.

-Yes?

-Do you have anything to say to me?

– What… To say?

-The new beast slayer who defeated the monsters with Leona in China, is this YuRia? I was convinced after reading the statement of the United Nations.

YuRia opened her eyes wide at Yoo Seunghyun’s whisper.
She asks in a trembling voice.

– How… Did you know?

-The appearance is a bit different… But I see YuRia up close. I thought they were very similar. Besides, they had the same name. It’s Beast Slayer Yuria… Then you can’t know it.

Yuria swallowed her saliva.
Seeing him turn his head and sigh, he must have thought that at least the name should be a pseudonym…
Seunghyun Yoo continued.

– I was surprised. I never dreamed that you would be a colleague with Sehwa… No, Leona.

YuRia, who shrugged her shoulders, made an effort to put on a calm expression.

-Do you know Sehwa…?

She only heard the name Song Ji-hyeok from Yoo Seung-hyeon, but she did not hear Se-hwa’s name.
The last time she argued with me in the park, she herself guessed Sehwa, and she hadn’t spoken to Yoo Seung-hyun.
So it was right to pretend not to know.

-Yes. Actually, my ex-girlfriend is Sehwa.

-Yes…?

YuRia opened her mouth wide.
Surprised acting kills once. She has better acting skills than Sehwa.
Yoo Seung-hyun scratched the back of his head.

-The important thing is not this… I have a question for you.

-What, what is…?

-Did you deliberately approach me?

I just thought so.
In fact, Yuria deliberately approached Yoo Seung-hyun.
He probably had no choice but to approach him because of the title of Aaron’s reincarnation, but he was right that he approached on purpose anyway.

Also, it hasn’t been long since they broke up, but Sehwa’s colleague YuRia seems to like her?
It was a situation that no one could but doubt.
Coincidentally, even the color of her nails was the same as Sehwa’s, so she had no choice but to think that she was playing with herself.

-I’m…

Yuria swallowed her saliva and looked straight into Yoo Seung-hyun’s serious eyes.
His eyes seemed to be saying this.
If the assumptions he made were true, he would be disappointed, but he said he wouldn’t be quick to judge until he was told.
Yuria, who had been opening her mouth, confessed.

– I approached on purpose.

-Okay. Thank you for speaking frankly. So… When you just brought up the story of Sehwa, was the act that surprised you?

-No. Absolutely not. I never dreamed that you were dating Sehwa. The reason I approached Seunghyun… Is because of reincarnation.

-Rebirth…? Are you referring to the reincarnation you talked about the other day?

-Yes. It has something to do with it. I can’t tell you in detail right now… But someday… Someday I’ll be honest.

There was sincerity in YuRia’s tone.
Yoo Seung-hyun looked at Yuria’s expression with an uncharacteristic fierce look, and then let out a shallow sigh.

– I’ll believe it. Are you saying that one of the reasons you approached is not related to Sehwa?

– None of that has anything to do with it.

-That’s enough.

While the two were talking, the food arrived.
Juicy steak and wine.
When the server put the food down and left, Yoo Seung-hyun smiled brightly with a knife.

– Shall we eat?

-Yes.

The atmosphere almost subsided, but Yoo Seung-hyun worked hard to restore the mouth during the meal.

After the meal, the two of them smiled at each other as dessert was served.
Now it’s time for Yuria to ask a question…

-That… Seunghyun.

-Yes?

– I have a question for you. What do you think would happen if Mr. Seong-hyeon was the ruler and ruled the country while using force to crush people under him?

Yoo Seung-hyun made a puzzled expression.
Like the last time, he was taken aback by Yuria’s unexpected question.
However, he soon fell into deep trouble.
He was silently gazing at the dessert, lost in thought, and answered in a calm tone.

– I don’t know about this side, but I’m the opposite.

-Why?

-Because I can’t see the people struggling. That’s it. There are no other reasons.

Why do you think people will suffer?
I can take good care of you.

-Um… That’s right.

Yoo Seung-hyeon gave a sluggish answer, but Yuria was satisfied.
It’s because Yoo Seung-hyun’s way of speaking gave off the feeling of genuinely thinking of the people under him.

I got up and started getting dressed.
It was to pretend to have witnessed the tryst between the two by chance.
Originally, I was going to reappear a little longer, but Yoo Seung-hyun’s growth is steep.
If you become more mental here, you won’t even be able to use him as a toy, and you’ll become a nuisance.
So let’s just kill it

**

A thump from inside Yuria’s chest! I think I can hear my heart beating.
That’s why she had a shocked face.
I passed by the restaurant just as Yoo Seung-hyun and Yuria were leaving the restaurant, and I frowned at the two.

“Uh? Aren’t you Song Ji-hyeok?”

Yoo Seung-hyun, who was looking at me with a puzzled face, soon approaches me with a bright face and extends his hand.

“I thought it was long, but Song Ji-hyeok is right. Nice to meet you. It’s the first time I met you at a pajeon restaurant a few months ago, right? I never thought I would see you like this.”

I relaxed my expression and grabbed Yoo Seung-hyun’s outstretched hand.

“Are you Yoo Seung-hyun? Nice to meet you. But… That person…”

As my gaze moves to YuRia, she trembles her shoulders.
Yoo Seung-hyun, who was in front of her and couldn’t see her reaction, scratched his head.

“We are dating.”

“A date…? Obviously, Mr. Yoo Seung-Hyun is Sehwa…”

“Ah… Saehwa and I… Broke up.”

“Is that so…?”

Yoo Seung-hyun smiled softly at me, who was flustered.

“Looks like you haven’t been contacted.”

“Yes… The university also filed a leave of absence… I’m a bit busy with work so I can’t keep in touch with my classmates… I don’t know what to say…”

“I’m fine. Don’t bother too much.”

I don’t use it, you bastard.
I was only thinking of killing you.

“Ah, I want to say thank you again. Thanks to Song Ji-hyeok, I have paid off all my debts… I am living a sound life.”

Yoo Seung-hyun bowed his head.

“No. You just did what you had to do. By the way… Is he sick?”

“Yes?”

“The person who is dating Yoo Seung-hyun. His face is too red…”

At those words, Yoo Seung-hyun looked back and was startled.
It was because YuRia’s face had turned red enough to explode soon.
Yoo Seung-hyun approaches her and asks.

“Miss YuRia, are you okay? Where are you sick? Did you do it too?”

“Yes…? Yes!?”

You must be embarrassed to run into me after lying like that.
The road ahead will be dark, and you won’t be able to make a proper judgment.
Yuria shook her face and shook her head.

“I-I’m fine…”

“Are you really okay?”

“Is it okay…?”

She crumpled her brow. Yoo Seung-hyun took a step back.

“Ah, yes…”

Taking advantage of that gap, I approached the two and said to Yoo Seung-hyun.

“I just want to go. I had an appointment. Nice to meet you.”

Yoo Seung-hyun answers.

“It was nice to meet you too. Could you possibly get the contact details? I really want to treat you to a meal, but it’s a bit awkward to ask Sehwa for Song Ji-hyeok’s contact information…”

“No. I’m very busy with work, so I don’t know when I’ll have time. Just like today, if we meet again by chance, then let’s have a cup of coffee. Don’t worry too much. I’ll just go.”

“Thank you so much!”

Yoo Seung-hyun bowed his head to me once again.
In the past, he would have tried to hold on to me somehow, but seeing that he only left a simple thank you note, he definitely became more mature.
Well, it doesn’t matter now.

I laughed kindly and put my ear to Yoo Seung-hyun and whispered.

“I’m envious anyway.”

“Yes…?”

“He is so pretty.”

“Ah…”

Yoo Seung-hyun lowers his head and splits his head as if embarrassed.
YuRia was stomping her feet, as if she had heard our whispers.
I said, slightly raising one corner of her mouth.

“Take care.”

“Enter carefully!”

I shook my hand roughly and turned around.
On my way home, my phone caught fire.
Yuria, who had broken up with Yoo Seung-hyun, was calling me.
Ignoring her phone call, I left only a concise message.
