Chapter 820 – Are You Crazy? (1)
“… Someone thought it looked familiar and asked, “Aren’t you Nari’s friend Sihee?”
A sister from the Geumhyang group suddenly approached me, mentioning Eunbyeol’s real name. Sihee’s face turned rotten as she made eye contact with them.
“…”
“It’s been a while since we met. What’s with that look in your eyes? “Relax your expression, Sihee.”
“Okay, if you don’t want to get into trouble, it would be better to listen to what you say.”
“… There’s nothing wrong with it, right? Well, you can only see things with your eyes, and since your faces are rotten, I guess my expression looked like that too.”
As soon as they ran into each other, no good words were exchanged, so it seemed like both sides had no intention of being polite, even on the outside.
The woman who was just called ‘sister’ by the woman next to her seemed to be Geum Jang-mi, and in that case, the woman next to her was probably her younger sister, Geum Dal-rae.
I had seen it once before at Geumhyang Shrine, but I didn’t have time to look closely at it because of Eunbyeol’s rescue. This is the first time to properly distinguish the identities of the two women.
‘Just by looking at their faces, they definitely look like twins.’
Even though they were twins, it wasn’t difficult to tell them apart. When it comes to facial expressions, impressions, and hairstyles, there were a few areas that were clearly different.
Her older sister, Geum Jang-mi, had a creepy smile on her face, a so-called ‘squinted smile’.
On the other hand, her younger sister, Geumdallae, had a relatively gentle expression and an almost expressionless expression. Her older sister’s hairstyle is a ponytail tied at the back of her head, and her younger sister’s is a sidetail tied to the right.
Last time I heard about Eunbyeol’s family relationship, I heard that Geumjangmi and Geumdallae are identical twins, and that Geumnari is Eunbyeol’s younger sister who is two years older than her.
For now, I memorized how to tell the two sisters apart based on the information I received in my head. In order to deal with Eunbyeol’s family situation in the future, it was necessary to not only deal with these women but also make sure to use them.
“Hmm, it’s been a while since we last met, but you’re still cocky. Still, since we’ve met in a place like this for a long time, would you like to shake hands?”
With those words, the gold rose took off the gloves she was wearing on her hands and held out her hands. It was Si-hee who looked at the hand of the golden rose with a horrified expression and was disgusted.
“Put it away! “Do you think I don’t know your despicable intentions?!”
Si-hee is wary of the Golden Rose’s awakening ability, ‘phantom pain,’ and spits out accusations instead of holding her hand. The golden rose pretended to be disappointed by that reaction and quietly withdrew her hand.
“It was a greeting purely out of joy, but Sihee, you are still very wary.”
“Don’t say anything that isn’t funny. “To the subject who always hides creepy plans in those narrow eyes.”
“I’m just hiding my eyes on purpose. Eyes are a report of all emotions that humans have. If you are the successor to Geumhyang, you must always be on guard. There is no need to reveal my feelings to others.”
“It’s not that it doesn’t need to be revealed, it’s that it shouldn’t be revealed. “Because I always have terrible thoughts in my head, like how I will threaten the other person today.”
“… Anyway, since you are not able to do your work thoroughly, these disturbing rumors keep leaking out.”
-Finch.
“… I’m being careful.”
At Gold Rose’s words, her expressionless younger brother’s body shook slightly.
It was a very subtle reaction, but maybe it was just a coincidence.
“So, how are you doing, Nari? “You wouldn’t just take them in and treat them like servants, right?”
“… I don’t know what you’re talking about. “Haven’t Nari been missing for several years?”
“Hmm, that’s right. “Then, other than Na-ri, is your exclusive maid you hired around that time still doing well?”
“If you even care about someone else’s exclusive maid, it seems like the Geumhyang successor doesn’t have much to do. Oh, or is it because, unlike me, you are not the successor, so you have some spare time?”
“This is a problem that can be solved if only Na-ri, who has left the house, comes back, so is there any reason to worry? And there is no need to worry because at least I am better than you, who are being compared to me in every way by being pushed aside by your sister.”
“This woman…”
From the looks of it, the Geumhyang Group, like Sihee’s Dokyung Group, seemed to be in the midst of a competition for successor.
In the case of Si-hee, Do Ye-hee will give up the position of successor to Si-hee at the right time, so it will eventually become a fight with herself, but at least Geumhyang’s older sisters seem to have no intention of giving up the position of successor to Eun-byeol.
These women were so dangerous that they even kidnapped and tortured Eun-byeol in order to forcibly rob her of her position as successor candidate.
I was able to get a rough idea of this woman’s personality just from a brief conversation, so if necessary, I’m sure she would use even more means.
‘Until now, I had no means to touch it, so I was just looking for an opportunity…’
The situation in which the two women appeared before my eyes was perhaps an opportunity that would not come easily again.
This meant that if we could pinpoint the location of the two sisters who always seemed to be shrouded in mystery, it would be possible to carry out a plan that we had only thought of in our heads until now.
“So, the man over there…”
“… ?”
“I feel like I’ve seen this before somewhere… What is your relationship with Sihee?”
“…”
Although I had some concerns, I decided to answer Golden Rose’s question appropriately.
“This is Kim Seong-cheol. I am a hunter belonging to the Hunter Autonomous Association, and my relationship with Sihee is an ordinary man and woman.”
“Joe, union? Pfft, pfft big…”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Oh, no… I had no idea that Sihee would meet such a lowly man from the union…, Because it was fun, ke, keuh…”
When I saw the way he started laughing, I thought he had caught me for telling such an obvious lie, but luckily he didn’t seem to recognize me and start laughing.
Instead, he laughs at the fact that I am a union hunter and that Sihee takes me around as someone from such a union, as if he is enjoying it. Because the scarf was covering half of my face, I didn’t seem to realize that I was Seong Tae-kyung, a male awakening hunter, and that I was a disguised butler who had entered the mansion with Do Ye-hee.
“D-you said everything?! Seongcheol is from a union, but he is on a different level from other male hunters in the middle of nowhere?! And just based on your hunter rank, you…”
“It’s okay, Sihee. You don’t need to say more.”
“But that woman…” !”
“Other people’s opinions don’t really matter. As long as Sihee truly recognizes my value, I don’t care at all what other hunters who have nothing to do with me are saying.”
“…”
And in many ways, it was still advantageous to make those women look at me funny. By limiting information and making the other person let down their guard, the feeling of despair when faced with an incident was bound to increase.
Golden Rose, with a slight smile on her face, seemed to think that she had properly scratched Sihee, and I’s pride, and this time extended her right hand to me.
“It’s fate that led us to meet like this. Shall we shake hands, Mr. Seongcheol?”
“…”
“Oh, no, Seongcheol! If you hold her hand…”
“… It’s okay, Sihee. “She’s just a handshake.”
Si-hee, worried about her ability to awaken the Golden Rose, hurriedly stopped me from extending her hand, but I answered that it was okay and held her hand with the woman in front of her.
I know about the awakening ability called ‘phantom pain’ that that woman uses, but if I were too cautious, I would have aroused her suspicion.
And I also thought that there was no way I could use something like phantom pain in this situation. Even if she has a bad personality, there’s no way she would try a bad attack like phantom pain from the first meeting…
-Tub.
“A mental attack has been detected. Installs an emergency shield to block the attack for approximately 10 seconds. 8, 7…”
… Is she crazy?
I never would have thought that she was a crazy woman who tried to attack me with phantom pain or something from the first time we met.
I guess I had underestimated the danger of this woman that Sihee and Eunbyeol were talking about. If it weren’t for Esila, she would have been completely lost.
… Once she’s done shit to someone else, it means she’s prepared to get hurt herself.
-Wow!
“Sigh?!”
Of course, there was no need for me to react kindly to this crazy bitch who tried to attack me mentally from the first meeting.
So, while holding the hand of this woman who was trying to feed me her phantom vagina, the woman across from her squeezed it so tightly that she complained of her pain, and as expected, a painful voice came out of her golden rose mouth.
“Ah, ah! Evil!!”
Gold Rose hurriedly tried to pull her hand away as she screamed, as if she didn’t know she was going to be attacked. Of course, there was no way I would let her take her hand away so easily.
-Wow!
“Ahh!! Cow, let go! “Let go of this!!”
-Wood!
“Aaaaa!!”
On the contrary, Gold Rose struggled even more in pain after holding her hand so hard that it almost broke her hands.
Since I didn’t really hold it with my hands, it was probably a little broken in reality. In the first place, there was no reason to hold hands with a bitch who tried to enjoy seeing others suffer from the first time they met.
With his other hand, he pushed against my body and crushed the hand of the golden rose that was trying to escape from me for 10 seconds, before Scylla’s mental shield disappeared, and she let go of her hand without warning.
It was a gold rose that was almost clinging to me, supporting its weight, so it was clear what would happen if I let go of my hand on this slippery ice.
-Slippery.
“Huh?”
-Whoop!!
I smiled quietly as I looked at the golden rose that fell to the hard ice floor while hitting my butt with a loud noise.
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden? “I just shook hands.”
