Chapter 76 – The Great War (1)

076

In the old days, a person called Young master said, “If you learn and learn, you will be invincible.

It really can’t be the right thing to say.
Jiboro, a wise man whom I most respect among Japanese, said, “The five human beings are gathered together…”必ず一人クズがいる I think it’s the two great oriental sayings along with the saying, “If five people gather, there must be one garbage.”

Also, people who have learned are different.
Indeed, it cannot be anything but a famous saying worthy of a Confucian scholar who has been praised as a great man since ancient times. But Jiboro Sensei is also a Confucianist?

Anyway, when I watch manga, I often… No, one of the clichés that often appears is to subjugate a woman to Juji.

To be honest, I wasn’t without my doubts whenever this kind of cliché came out.
A self-respecting woman succumbs to her juji and grunts? No matter how great the pleasure of sex is, is that possible? It was possible.

Let’s admit it.
I was an asshole.

‘Indeed… Manga writers’ data research and detail is amazing.’

It just required a little preparation.
It’s a face that a woman can’t help but pass over.

“Haa… How did I do this….”

I grab Elena’s face, who was lying on the bed and sighing deeply, and meet her eyes.
My face reflected in tired blue eyes.

“It’s already too late. You’re mine, so take it lightly, Elena.”
“…If it had been before I met you, I wouldn’t have stayed silent after hearing this.”

He replied bluntly and turned her head away.
It’s something I’ve recently become convinced of, but women can’t be honest. If I really hated it, I wouldn’t have reacted like this.

I grabbed Elena’s face again and turned it towards me.
I asked with a light kiss on the pouty lips pressed by my finger.

“Then how about now when you met me?”

As soon as I let go of her hand, my pouty lips engulfed in a bitter smile.

“Really, this is foul play.”
“So what’s the answer?”
“…What can I do, I fell for a man like this.”

Surprisingly, I am a fairly conscientious person.
Little… Although the corner of the triangle of conscience is slightly worn, isn’t everyone like this?

Even though Elena gave in to my jiuji, that didn’t even take away my sorry feelings.
‘Cause I know I’m selfish

‘Still, I will never allow my woman to meet another man.’

Of course I will meet another woman.
So this opportunity was important.

Elena is pretty. That’s great too. And her skills are great. As for athletics, she was elected to the Olympic U.S. National team and she won a medal at the Olympics, and as for her studies, she is enrolled in a prestigious American university, she says.

She is a pretty and talented woman. Naturally, Elena is busy. She has to be busy
She herself has a great desire for a career and a desire to achieve, so she has a tendency to create things on her own.

What will Elena do when the Olympics are over?
Of course it will be difficult to meet.

There is a saying that when her body is far away, her mind is far away.
Of course, my relationship with Elena isn’t that old, but that doesn’t mean she’s an easy girl. If she was as attractive as she was, the temptations around her would be enormous, because she remained virgin until she was 23 years old.

But on the contrary, since she lost her virginity, she might be more interested in men than she was, or she might have become more open.

So during this Olympic period, busy Elena decided to make sure to put her stamp on it during this time of no schedule.

After the games that Nana and Elena participated in, we waited for the awards ceremony and closing ceremony.
It’s only 2 days, but this time, when Elena has no schedule, is the key.

During her short time span of 2 days I did her best by being her boyfriend only for her.
I don’t know how Elena felt, but at least I think I did my best.

The fun time passes in an instant, and the day before the awards ceremony and closing ceremony.
Up until now, it was free, but due to the tight official schedule from the award ceremony and closing ceremony to the return to Korea and the disbanding ceremony, it was the last day to meet Elena freely.

Elena smiled and asked me, who melted her as best she could, and who constantly whispered to me that she was mine.

“Minjun. Why are you so anxious?”
“Anxiety? Me?”

Blinking my eyes, I asked,

“Something like a child trembling with anxiety? It’s cute.”

He smiled coolly.

“Ha! What is anxiety? It’s not.”
“Really?”
“…Actually, I’m a little anxious.”
“Why? Did I do something wrong?”
“Not at all. It was my fault.”
“Minjun?”

I answered honestly because I didn’t know at all.

“Is Elena popular?”
“Yeah. There are a lot.”
“As expected. It’s because I’m anxious.”
“What? Minjun is anxious? Why?”
“That’s right… You’re getting farther away now. It’s getting harder to meet you. Besides, I have a girlfriend in Korea.”

In my honest feelings, Elena giggled.

“Wow. Until now, I thought Min-Jun had a lot of confidence. Now I know that he has such an appearance.”
“I told you, I’m not that skilled.”
“Umm~ Okay. I’ll believe that lie.”

No, it’s not a lie in the first place.
Ignoring my grunts, Elena grabbed my face with both of her hands and met our gaze.

“As expected, it’s too short. To get to know you.”

Touching her lips lightly, Elena whispered.

“Don’t worry. I still want to get to know you, and I’m happy to discover a new side of you. Even if I’m away for a while, I’ll always think of you. I’ll always miss your eyes looking at me and the warmth of your lips. And I’ll look forward to seeing you again. .So Minjun. Don’t worry. I’m your woman.”

* * *

The soccer team’s schedule was tight.
After attending the awards ceremony and hanging the silver medal around my neck, when the Spaniards received the gold medal, I had to clap from behind like a folding screen, and I had to attend the closing ceremony.

I thought it was unusual, but it was unusual.

“Normally it doesn’t go this far. We’re special.”
“Why?”

On the flight home, senior Yoon Hyuk, who was sitting in the seat next to me, said as if it were natural.

“That’s because it’s popular.”
“…Popular? Not because of good grades?”

Ei~ What are you talking about, senior?
I thought it was a joke, but it was surprisingly serious.

“Seriously dude. Grades? Hey, there are many players with better grades than us. Look right now. What is our medal color? Is it silver?”
“Right?”
“How many gold medals did our country win?”
“Uh… How many? How many, senior?”
“I don’t know either.”
“…”
“But one thing is for sure, it’s not zero. I checked up to 11 during the Olympics, but I don’t know what happened after that. Anyway, the important thing is that there are many players with better results than us. Isn’t a silver medal better than a gold medal?”
“…Is that so?”

Come to think of it, yes.
Was our overall ranking ranked 6th or 7th? No, I was in 9th place… ? Anyway, I know you’ve won quite a few gold medals… Did the players receive such a loud welcome?

“After all, it’s popular. There’s also luck. From the fact that we won medals in soccer, which is the major among majors, the aggro we brought in through the controversy over the final list combined with the propaganda that no one expected, and it exploded. Besides…”

Glance.
Senior Yoon Hyuk’s eyes are on me.

“You are too.”
“Ha… That’s right. I’m popular again.”
“…It’s annoying, but these days, you’re called the nation’s little brother or something?”
“Whoa. This guy’s popularity is real. Tired, tired.”
“Oh, the people should know about this bastard.”
“Then you’d prefer it to be easygoing, right?”

Shortly after we arrived at Incheon International Airport after bickering, the director called us together.

“Now, pay attention.”

The coach said to us, who gathered in a circle with their arms around each other like right before a game.

“When I was playing as an active player, there were times when the national team left the departure hall and raw eggs flew in. Back then, we were fucking bad.”

Oh, Mr. Oh.
It’s scary to imagine.

“I didn’t worry about that after I retired, but when the Olympics started, it suddenly came to my mind. I was hit on the stairs when I was active, but I wondered if this would be the same after I became a leader. But it wasn’t. Today, instead of eggs, pollen will fly.”

Everyone cheered at the director’s joke.
Ugh, there are no fools when grown-up adults are smiling brightly with silver medals hanging around their necks. I am an exception. Because if you’re handsome, even if you smile like a bing-gu, you’re cool.

“Everyone worked hard. I wanted to express my gratitude on behalf of the coaching staff for working as a team and doing my best. And lastly. Thank you so much for trusting and following the poor coach.”

Applause poured in towards the director who bowed his head.

“Thank you very much, Director!”
“That’s right! Thank you for choosing me!”
“I won’t forget you, Director!!”
“Legal military service brokers are the best! They’re cool~!”
“Thank you too, Director!!”

Amid cheers from the players, the coach raised his head and said,

“Who’s the one who spoke plainly. Come out.”
“…”
“It’s a joke.”

Write, I almost raised my hand knowing it was true.

“Are you ready to be welcomed by the people, friends? I heard that there were so many people that the airport was paralyzed.”

The director looked back at us and nodded his head.

“Then let’s go.”
“Whoa!!”
“Let’s go!!”

We headed toward the exit of the departure hall vigorously,

Wow!!
Whoops!
Contingency is the best!
Minjoon Hong!! Minjun!!
Dae~Korea!!
Korean hero!!

As soon as the door opened, I was startled by the loud shout that came.
This is what makes the ground shake at the shouts of people.

Beyond the open door, there was an endless wave of people.
