Episode 351 – Hyundai (17)
On the day of the graduation ceremony.
Kim Mi-jin, who had been sleeping, opened her eyes. She woke up before the alarm went off.
“Yes···?”
I looked at the clock and it was 4 am. There is still a long time left before the graduation ceremony begins. She closed her eyes again, but she couldn’t sleep. Her mind went crazy.
Grumble.
Finally, I got out of bed and opened the window.
It was still dark outside. With each breath, the cool dawn air filled my lungs.
“Ha···!”
She stared blankly at the academy scenery outside the window. It was a place where I worked hard for the past six months, and a place where I learned a lot.
When she lowered her head, I saw her palms full of blisters and scars. It was a wound that even her regenerative abilities could not fully recover from.
‘···.’
I felt strange.
She wasn’t feminine by any means, but it didn’t matter. Thanks to you, I achieved my goal and became stronger. Now I can confidently say that wherever I go, I do my part.
“He···”
When she was smiling with pride that filled her heart.
Bibibit.
[04:00:30]
The alarm clock rang. Kim Mi-jin ran up to her and turned off her alarm.
“Ugh…What is it…”
Her dorm roommate muttered, but she quickly fell asleep. Kim Mi-jin, who was watching her, left her dorm.
There was a reason why I woke up early while everyone else was sleeping.
‘At las!’
Her heart pounded.
Today was the day her wish came true. She headed to the makeup shop, feeling the early morning breeze.
“Welcome! “What is the name of the person who made the reservation?”
“It’s Kim Mi-jin.”
She sat down under the guidance of an artist who specializes in makeup.
“Oh my goodness! Mr. Mijin Kim. Is this real right now? You have really nice skin. “I think it would be worthwhile to wear makeup today.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Kim Mi-jin laughed awkwardly. It was my first time coming to a makeup shop like this, so I was a little embarrassed.
Said the employee, who was examining her face here and there.
“What can I do for you? Is there a style you want?”
“Uh···”
Actually, I didn’t know much. Today was the day I met him, so I just mustered up the courage to come.
“Well, just make it pretty.”
“Uhm. That’s the most difficult thing. Where are you going? “A friend’s wedding?”
“That’s not it…”
The artist clapped his hands at the sight of Kim Mi-jin pursing her lips with her red face.
“Ah! You’re going to meet someone you like. Then I will take care of it.”
“Oh, no, that’s it…”
That was when Kim Mi-jin, who was embarrassed, was trying to say something. She spoke as if the artist knew everything.
“Whoever that guy is, I will make him lose his soul! “Just trust me.”
“······Yes.”
Kim Mi-jin closed her mouth without realizing it. She is not a celebrity but she is respected. No, she met someone who was a fan… Her head hurt as she tried to make excuses.
‘This isn’t it.’
Somewhere in her chest was tingling.
In fact, she didn’t prepare this much when she met her boyfriend… But she felt sorry and embarrassed for him.
She eventually sighed and closed her eyes.

Time passes, just before the graduation ceremony.
Kim Mi-jin, beautifully dressed in the shop, pressed her bouncing breasts.
‘Haa… Why am I so nervous?’
She couldn’t help it. After today’s graduation ceremony, I will finally meet him.
My breath became hot just by imagining it. I pursed my lips and tried to calm down, but it wasn’t easy.
When I was taking a deep breath.
“Mijin. Congratulations on completing the academy.”
Someone approached. It was my boyfriend Kang Seong-hoon who came as a guest at the graduation ceremony.
“Ah… Is your brother here? Thank you for coming.”
“It’s so complicated here that it’s hard to find – huh?”
Kang Seong-hoon saw her face and her eyes widened. He looked at her with her mouth wide open.
“What are you! Are you really pretty today? “Your beauty is truly crazy!”
“Hmph. Okay?”
She was nervous about seeing him, but her boyfriend’s reaction gave her some confidence.
“Wow Mr. It’s really crazy. Ah! Here’s your gift.”
“Ah, thank you.”
He handed out a bouquet of flowers. She tried to take it without much thought. Her palms grasped the air.
‘Huh?’
This is because Kang Seong-hoon, shocked, retreated as if running away. He shouted, trembling.
“What! “Why is this happening?”
“Ah…My hand? I trained a little more and this is what happened. “Does it look like that?”
“Say that!”
The wrinkled eyebrows did not straighten. Kang Seong-hoon, who was frowning, spoke urgently.
“You’re coming back, right? Yes?”
When I saw my boyfriend persistently asking questions, I somehow felt depressed.
“···Why? “Don’t you like my hands like this?”
“Uh? Well, that’s not it. Just… Ah, no! I said something wrong. It must really hurt. I know a dermatologist. “Let’s go and get treatment together.”
“···Are you okay. Don’t you know it’s my ability regeneration? “You will get better if you rest for a while.”
“Well, I’m glad if that’s the case.”
When Kim Mi-jin, who had become sullen, finished biting her mouth, her conversation was cut off.
Kang Seong-hoon rolled his eyes here and there. He said, smiling awkwardly.
“Ugh… Mijin. Do you really have no time after the graduation ceremony today? “Let’s eat together.”
Kim Mi-jin sighed inwardly at the awkward topic change.
She was honestly hurt but tried to understand. When would Kang Seong-hoon, an ordinary person, have seen scars like this? He made up his mind that of course it could be done.
He grinned. He spoke softly with the kindest expression he could muster.
“Sorry. I really don’t have time today. “I have to go see Siwoo right after the graduation ceremony.”
“···To see Choi Si-woo? Well… I’m saying this now. “Do you really have to go there?”
“Huh? Of course. Why did I go through all that trouble? “I worked really hard to become the top graduate.”
“···.”
When there was a strange silence.
“Mijin Kim! “We have to rehearse. Where are you?”
I thought it was a mistake when I heard a voice coming from somewhere. Since she was the top student, I had to attend her rehearsal.
“I’m sorry, brother. Let’s talk again next time. “I’m going!”
“…Now, wait a minute! “Take this with you!”
My boyfriend offered me a bouquet of flowers, but I didn’t have the presence of mind to receive it.
“Kim Mi-jin, come quickly! I do not have time!”
I quickly got up from my seat. She smiled and waved her hand.
“Brother. Thanks for coming! “I might not be able to meet you after the end because I don’t have time, so I’ll say hello in advance!”
“Uh, uh…”
After greeting her with her hand, I hurriedly ran over.
*
Kim Mi-jin received the certificate on behalf of everyone, and the graduation ceremony ended.
I said hello to my boyfriend, who I could see in the guest room in the distance, but there was no time until we met again.
As if swept along, I followed the secretary’s directions and headed to the reception room.
“If you stay here, the guild leader will be here soon.”
“Yes yes!”
It was much faster than I thought. I hesitantly sat down on the sofa and waited.
‘Oh, what should I do?’
Suddenly her legs started shaking. She had to mentally prepare herself, but it wasn’t easy.
“Huu…Huu…”
At that time, I was barely able to calm myself down by taking deep breaths.
Smart.
“Ugh! Bur, already?”
The door opened before I could prepare. Shocked, she carefully turned her head.
“Ah!”
The door opened and a man came in. It was Choi Si-woo, whom she had dreamed of even in her dreams.
“I’m sorry, Mijin. “Have you waited long?”
Her fingertips trembled.
‘Siwoo knows my name!’
She gulped several times and spoke urgently.
“Oh, no! “I just arrived too!”
“I’m really sorry. “Something happened suddenly.”
“It’s really okay. Oh, I didn’t have to wait long.”
She shook hands and tried to sit down, but her body didn’t listen to her. Her whole body creaked like a wooden doll.
She eventually sat down, as if she had fallen.
“Eww···”
I wanted to rip her hair out. How can you be such a fool? How did I get this opportunity, but I couldn’t waste it like this?
‘Let’s calm down.’
She made up her mind and raised her head.
But···
The moment she saw his face. All resolutions were scattered. She unconsciously lowered her head and glared at her table.
‘Ugh! What’s this.’
The face reflected in the table glass will be bright red. It was so stupid that I felt like crying.
“You’re so nervous. The coffee won’t work because it’s hot, so I’ll give you cold bottled water. Wait.”
“Yes. Okay, thank you… Huh?!”
I was startled by the cold cup that touched my cheek. I looked at him with wide eyes, and he was smiling as if it was fun.
“···What.”
“Relax.”
He seemed to have a more playful personality than I expected. Choi Si-woo, who was hesitating, said.
“Mijin. “I thought you had a really strong personality just by watching the training videos, but you’re more shy than I thought.”
“I… I’m sorry.”
“Hey, it’s nothing to apologize for, so don’t bow your head.”
“Yes.”
I carefully sipped the water. As soon as I drank the cold water, I felt a little calmed down.
Choi Si-woo, who was smiling at her, said.
“I heard that the instructor announced this in advance… Have you thought about what you want from me?”
“Ah yes! “It’s all natural.”
“Tell me. “I will listen to everything I can.”
Kim Mi-jin swallowed her saliva. He pressed her bouncing upper breast and released her lips.
Her wish…
“Please take a picture with me!”
“Yes?”
I cried out with all my might and lost all my strength.
Her eyes were tightly closed and her hands were together as if in prayer. I was so nervous. My heart was pounding like it was going to explode.
Choi Si-woo said with a laugh.
“Just a photo? “Is that okay?”
“Yes, yes… That’s fine.”
He scratched her head and then approached her.
“Ugh?”
She sat down right next to the sofa and gestured.
“Is it okay to do this? Now, let’s take a picture.”
Her natural instinct wrapped around her shoulders. She was taken aback by the sudden skinship, but she soon felt relieved. Her palms were slightly apart from her shoulders.
‘…I didn’t reach it.’
The emotions I was feeling right now were unfamiliar. Not sure if it was regret or relief, she took out her smartphone.
“Jji, I’ll take a picture.”
Click!
A pair of man and woman are contained in a small square. They looked like they were lovers, leaning their faces towards each other.
That time when she was smiling without even realizing it.
“Can it be one piece? Take more pictures. “Pappap.”
“To?”
Choi Si-woo took over the smartphone and continued taking pictures.
Click click!
Dozens of shots passed, and her album was filled with photos with Choi Si-woo.
“Ah!”
The corners of Kim Mi-jin’s mouth rose. She kept smiling. She couldn’t bear the happiness of having her wish fulfilled.
Kim Mi-jin, who was wandering around checking her album, bowed her waist.
“Thank you!”
“Is this really okay?”
“Sure! Thank you so much!”
Choi Si-woo, who was laughing, shook his head.
“Honestly, it’s a shame that I ended up just taking pictures. Mijin, I would like to at least improve her constitution. How is it?”
“What is your constitution?”
“Yes. If I help you, your magic attribute efficiency will increase significantly. Oh, your body may be touched during the process of improving your constitution.”
“Uh···.”
Kim Mi-jin wiggled her fingers. She glanced at his expression and saw that it was as calm as water.
‘But. There’s no way my Siwoo would do that…’
I nodded at the attitude that seemed to have no selfishness at all. She had a strong desire to become stronger as she was also a hunter.
“If you do, I will be grateful.”
“Then excuse me.”
Choi Si-woo carefully held her fingertips.
“Tsk…?”
Kim Mi-jin was shocked. I remembered my boyfriend’s reaction earlier and unconsciously shrugged her shoulders.
She reflexively tried to pull her hand away, but Choi Si-woo did not let go.
She said, gently stroking the wound on the back of her hand.
“Just by looking at these hands, you can see how hard Mijin worked. “If it’s okay, may I help you recover?”
“Ah···”
Is there something like recovery? I had a question, but it was quickly forgotten.
That didn’t really matter. I felt like I would burst into tears knowing that her hard work was recognized.
“···Yes. Does not matter.”
Her warm energy seeped into her. She was in no pain. She felt cool and tingly at the same time.
