Chapter 22 – The Black Knight

Isn’t this the best way to stand out, overtaking even the people who are usually difficult to stand out?

‘How come it suddenly feels so quiet….’

Until just a little while ago.
Even if there were not over 100 mechanical engineering students who attended the welcome party for freshmen today, other guests who came separately were also making noise.
Really, everyone became quiet, as if they were all conspiring together telepathically.

“Shall we try grilling meat?”

Chinta special.
I can’t stand the suffocating atmosphere and try to do something.

“…….”

Seed bee.
Well, 20 years…… No, I’ve lived 99 percent of my life as a brat, but just because my shell has changed, where will that habit go?
I was hoping it would get cheaper in an instant.

“Oh right! Bake the meat. Even with unlimited refills, there is a 120-minute time limit. Hurry up, bake, and everyone pour soju into your glasses.”
“What does Donghyun know?”
“Yeahyeol! Donghyun Kim, see him lifting it right away with the tongs. Manners~”

Wow, fuck…….

Even though I feel fortunate, a bit of skepticism creeps into my life.

〈 Become famous for now. Then people will clap even if you poop.〉
I know why it is said.

The fact that the shell has changed a little, and that it has gained some strength is one thing.
The reactions around you are so different.

‘I can understand why people who have tasted this taste once get Botox and put up with everything they want to eat, desperately trying to manage it to maintain popularity.’

It was a drug in a different sense, and it was like a restriction that strangled oneself.
But it feels different from Chinta.
This is a restriction that puts you on hold, but it comes with a return that goes beyond that.

“Ah, Donghyun…… I’m sorry, I came late. Also, I work part-time at a meat restaurant on the weekends. I’ll bake. Give me the tongs.”
“No, it’s okay. There were only three pretty girls sitting around me.”

Wait a minute…… What did I just say?
I just spit it out randomly.

“Poop……Haha! Ahaha, ahaha…… Cool, Cool! Oh shit I thought it was going to be funny Wow, wow…… Donghyun Kim, Donghyun Kim said that…… Coke, Coke!”

Hyerin Kim, who was sitting to my left, was on the verge of dying from shortness of breath.
With her hands on her stomach, she was literally bursting with laughter, even with tears in her eyes. It’s the first time I’ve seen him smile like this in middle school and high school.

“Oh, oh, fuck…… Wow, my stomach hurts. The real Kim Dong-hyun, these days, I have a good feeling. Ha, if only it was strong…… You might have thought of getting married?”

Fucking year.
Sounds like a marriage

Would I marry a bitch like you just because I’m crazy?
Anyway, I felt like I was going to be embarrassed.

“Poop…….”
“…….”

Han Yu-mi couldn’t stand it either, so she turned her head slightly and smiled, and Yoon Seo-ah was embarrassed and didn’t know what to do.
That alone makes my face glow.

‘I didn’t know that I would actually spit out lines like this with my mouth while living.’

Am I really crazy
You say you have a good looking face, are you saying lines like a host would do?
At the welcome party for new students.

“Hey, why is the atmosphere so good here? Wow, all the faces of our department are gathered here. Hang out with other kids, too. I will be sorry for the other kids. Ah…… Except for one.”

Hyerin Kim, Yumi Han.
It’s embarrassing, but me and Yoon Seo-ah, who still covers her face with her bangs.

In a sense, it could be said that it was a standout party in the presence of sophomores and even professors.
As expected, he is a senior in the second year.
Jegal Suho, who is greatly loved by the professor, approached us first.

By the way, what did you just say?
He said it so naturally at the very end that I wondered if I had heard it wrong.

By the way, no matter how you look at it, isn’t that saying that Yoon Seo-ah is noticing or openly feeding her?

“Hey, Yoon Seo-ah.”
“Yes, senior.”
“Didn’t I ask you the day before yesterday if you could come if possible?”
“…… Yes.”

Hmm, listening to the story makes me think that it might be a little…….

“Did I do anything to make you uncomfortable? You didn’t really force it too much. Of course, there were times when I was forced to participate, including the other kids, because I wanted them to participate. But if you don’t do this, kids these days, the real participation rate is too low.”
“No, there was nothing uncomfortable…….”
“But then you said no. I didn’t mean to fuck you or make you feel bad. Well, personal freedom these days, it’s nice to be considerate of this and that. Still, it’s a bit different from our 4-year-old. 1st grade, 2nd grade. Even the fast kids have already been employed since the first semester of the second year and left. If not now, there will be no chance to get to know each other.”

To be honest, I don’t think that’s wrong.
If I hadn’t participated in this event and hadn’t acquired the abilities I have now…… Was I able to make a little bit of a relationship with others when I was in college?

I don’t think so.
I just went back and forth between college and my own room, enjoying my alone time, then graduated, went to the army…… What would it be?

“Sorry.”
“Whoa…… Well yeah, you must have had something to do with it too. What is your part-time job?”
“I finished a little early today…….”
“Yes, yes. Still, I think you should have come, but thank you for coming. I wonder if the atmosphere has become a little cheap, so that’s a little too. Still, he came…… Hey, Donghyun. You can eat meat there.”

Maybe I was too absorbed in the words of Jegal Suho.
I quickly nodded at his point and turned the meat over.

‘I thought she was only focusing on what she was saying to Yoon Seo-ah, but she was definitely looking at her surroundings as well.’

「Chi-Ik!」

“Well, since you’re here, enjoy it to the fullest. Don’t pay the membership fee now, send it to me by bank account later. Look, who is that? The vice-president and the angry seniors seemed to be waiting for you in many ways.”
“Ah yes….”
“I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have any ill feelings toward you, but if I don’t do this, the other kids might say something more to you. So don’t feel too bad.”
“Yes. I know.”
“You know…… It’s an age you guys don’t know yet, these guys.”

Only then did Jegal Suho laugh and hold out an empty soju glass to Han Yumi, as if he had been carrying it from the beginning.

“Don’t get me wrong. I’m not really the type to go after women like other bastards. Originally, I was going to ask Donghyun, who suddenly changed, to follow me. You bastard, you’re grilling meat.”
“No sir. I’ll pour you a drink.”
“Yes, thank you.”

I admired a little looking at the naturally smiling Jegal Suho.
Wow, a senior is a senior.

What are you doing, Marnie?
Judging from the fact that they came to such a trashy school anyway, no matter what they say…… There must be something different about people who lived a year or two longer than us.

“Come on, focus!”

When Jegal Suho raised his glass and shouted, all the students who had been chatting with each other while grilling meat all looked this way.

“The professor was worried that he would ruin the atmosphere by saying something unnecessarily, because this kind of person is our professor. Let’s all eat and drink comfortably. Cheers!”
“Cheers!!”

Is this a college drinking party?
Actually, I went through a similar atmosphere when I was a freshman OT, but I didn’t know because I retired before I even enjoyed this atmosphere.

“Big…… !”

I emptied the soju glass poured in front of me and frowned.
Is this the 4th time you’ve had alcohol? I think it’s the 5th.

‘Aww, it’s really fucking tasteless.’

No matter how much soju you drink.
I was sure that even if I ate it for a hundred days, it would never become delicious.

“Keew, kill it.”
“It is delicious.”

What on earth are Kim Hye-rin and Han Yu-mi drinking with such a happy expression that they only write like this?
How the hell!

“…… Hey, Hyerin Kim.”
“What, man. If you have grilled meat, transfer some to my plate. Oh, and green onions too.”

He asked me to do it, so I picked up the meat and green onion as I wanted and transferred it to Kim Hye-rin’s bowl.

Even if it’s like this, I still feel more comfortable talking to her than Yumi Han.
I guess even bad luck is fate.

“Do you really enjoy drinking soju?”
“Yeah, how fucking delicious is it? Besides moderately bitter, isn’t it a good feeling to be drunk?”
“Isn’t this just alcohol?”
“Isn’t that bitter taste good? Oh, yes, of course…… Town.”
“…….”

Isn’t this crazy bitch?
I just said that this baby just said, ‘The bitter taste of four semen was not good.’

‘This bastard is a real jerk.’

I’m not crazy.

“No, I know it tastes like alcohol. Is it delicious?”

I couldn’t believe it, so I naturally asked the same question to Han Yu-mi as well.
Then Yumi Han said.

“Well, it’s a bit bitter. If you’re used to it, you don’t use it to the point of worrying about it. More than anything, it feels good to be drunk. Should I say that my hair is lighter than usual?”
“What are you, a 40-year-old man?”

I couldn’t understand, I couldn’t understand.
Beer was somewhat understandable. Sometimes I think it tastes like barley tea too.

But soju was absolutely unacceptable.
It just tastes like alcohol.

“What about Seo-ah?”
“Me? To be honest, I really hate soju. As soon as I drink it, I think I can eat it if I drink it with water or a beverage. It’s not a high dose…… And I have some bad memories of alcohol.”
“This is it!”

I clapped and clapped.
Yoon Seo-ah’s reaction was normal.

If I only drank soju, it was because I had to hold my breath and drink oden soup or water to get rid of the alcohol scent that was lingering in my mouth.

‘No, isn’t this normal?’

To put it bluntly, we are 20-year-olds who have just entered school. But isn’t it strange that soju already tastes so good?

“I’m sorry…… Follow the drink Your glass is empty. And it’s definitely a one-shot. Okay?”
“Follow me too.”

Watching Kim Hye-rin and Han Yu-mi naturally handing me an empty drink, I shook my head.
Well, these two…….
Just looking at what he does, it seems like he must have had a drink in high school.

“What about Seo-ah?”
“Ah, I…… Note, because the drinking volume is not too high. Just like before, I’ll drink one glass at a time when we’re toasting.”
“Do it. I don’t even like soju.”

I nodded, and Kim Hye-rin smiled while looking at Yoon Seo-ah.

“Are you still in high school? I can’t even drink soju.”
“Hey, don’t be sober.”
“Hey, Donghyun Kim. Are you a bit sad? We still did this and that. Are you taking his side in this situation?”
“Hey, it sounds like this and that.”

Crazy bitch! Crazy bitch!
What do you really have in your head?

It gave me goosebumps to be able to say such a thing casually, no matter how free-spirited an era it was.
Did this kid grow up not in Korea, but in another country?

It was then.

“Oh, this is a perfect flower garden. Can we wear some too?”
“Hi guys. Sorry. Come here like this Because the second graders are too boyish.”

I saw two sophomore seniors interrupting this way with empty soju glasses.
To be honest, I don’t remember the name very well.
Slightly, I intuitively felt that I hadn’t come here just to have a good drink.
That will be too.

“Are you that? The kid who said he couldn’t come to the group chat room alone. I thought Suho was saying something.”
“I’m sorry.”
“No, what are you sorry about? Might not be able to come. Okay, let’s all have a drink together. I don’t mean it in a bad way, so you’d be a little sad if I refused?”
“Ah…”

Quickly, Seo-ah Yoon carefully holds her soju glass with both her hands and holds it out in front of her, and as if she had just been discharged from the military, her spiky-haired senior her pours soju into her glass her . .

“It’s squeak…….”

“I-I…….”
“Uh huh, I haven’t followed you yet.”

Yoon Seo-ah’s mouth her, which was not covered by her hair her, turned blue as she watched the amount of soju that was not enough to fill her glass her and created ‘surface tension’.
Earlier, she said that she was about to exaggerate.
So why bother people like this…… Really mean and nasty.
Even Yoon Seo Ah, she said she has bad memories about alcohol.

By the way…….

“Ah, the black knight! Senior, it’s because Seo-ah doesn’t drink well. Can I drink it instead?”

Why am I so far away, Mr.
