Chapter 113 – Bad Idea

Suffocating nervous warfare.

With one man in the middle, three women fight.

“Arin-ah? Senior…?”

They have just separated Seol-ah, but Lee A-rin and senior Lee So-cheon grind their teeth and stare at Seol-ah. My sister grabs both of my wrists at the same time.

“Taeho, let me see you for a second.”

“Yes?”

My sister is dragging me as if transporting me. Seol-ah is embarrassed. Han Ye-rin said that she was fine now, so she came down to say it was good, but her fight of ki shows no sign of ending. What did you put honey on my face? I’ve had a lot of hardships while living in the academy, but this is the first time I’ve ever been this hard. The sister smiles and presses her body toward me as if showing off. Seol-ah’s eyebrows twitch like crazy. Eyes full of anger

Even if you try to force it out somehow, you will be immediately blocked and stopped. Even if Seol-ah tries to take the two of them off as if she is annoyed, she frequently fails.

“Profit… Profit…!”

He is blatantly clinging to me while using body strengthening. As Seol-ah tries to use her magic, her steps noticeably speed up.

‘Isn’t this… A bit dangerous?’

Dangerous.

It’s a problem that seniors Lee Ah-rin and Lee So-cheon like me, but it’s even more problematic to keep in check that Seol-ah sticks by my side. Why the fuck…

‘I… Have a girlfriend?’

I have a girlfriend, why are you doing this?!

“I-I… Senior?”

“Huh?”

“I have a girlfriend…”

“Okay.”

I’m confident.

…I beg your pardon?

“Uh, uh… Yes?”

“It’s literally.”

Senior Lee So-cheon even shook off Lee Ar-in’s wrists, and forcibly lifted me up and hugged the princess. Li Xiaochen looks at me with her serious eyes, wraps her magic ceremony all over her body, and spreads ice on her floor and leaves her seat in an instant. It passes through the hallway several times faster than in bumper car racing.

“Taeho, I’ll tell you the truth.”

Love you.

“Yes?”

I… Have a girlfriend!

Senior Lee So-cheon leaves her building at breakneck speed and arrives at the flower bed at a speed that makes it questionable whether he is the same person. Her head can’t get the situation right. In a real blink of an eye, she gets between the flower bed and the wall of the flower bed. As soon as I get up, the senior hits the wall and pushes me back.

“…I’m confident that I’ll treat you better than my girlfriend. Taeho, don’t you want to come to Ijega?”

“Yes?”

“It doesn’t matter how Taeho’s girlfriend has treated you in the past. I’m confident that I’ll treat you well several times, no, hundreds and thousands of times… Huh?”

“No, it can’t be-“

A strong obsession rises up the spine. Haha, the cool breath touches the tip of her nose. Senior Li Socheon puts her hand on my chest.

“From now on, I will take care of all your money, house, and dreams. Taeho just needs to be by your side from morning to evening. …?”

Show openly obsession. Sticky eyes scatter me. I think it will work if it goes like this.

‘There’s no way it could be…!’

“It’s not possible.”

As I waved her hand, Iso-Chun’s eyes fluttered. Her face gradually fills the field of vision. A slight chill emanates from the surroundings. It’s autumn now, so the boat is cold. Her cold breath brushes against her cheek.

“Gee, really…?”

“Yes, senpai. Seriously, no.”

You can’t leave your girlfriend and change. She doesn’t like it even if you give her hundreds of billions, even if she tells you to build a house and make her dreams come true. Seoha is everything to me. When she looks at her senior with hard eyes, she puts on a melancholy expression.

“Eww…”

She is looking for her way out while looking at her senior’s notice.

“Ha… Ha… Are you crazy!?”
“Huuuuu sane…!?”

Kaga-gak – With the sound of ice grinding, Ia-rin and Seol-ah appear. Both come out and glar at her senior with her glowing eyes as she removes the fallen leaves from her hair.

“We were supposed to be together…!”
“Tae-ho’s side is mine…!”

The two push the senior away as if annoyed. I want a chance to go outside…

“Should I stand…?”

Body is fixed that familiar feeling. Translucent chains coil around her body like a snake.

“Don’t miss…”

Seol-ah grits her teeth and glares at me.

“Tae-ho… Can’t run away.”

Ah.

I will turn

Mental strength diminishes.

Putting me in the middle, I’m better. Actually, I don’t see anyone as the opposite sex.

“Ha…”

The fight continued until just before lunchtime was over. I… Never dreamed that senior Lee So-cheon could be such an active person.

As Seol-ah hangs up with her senior’s mannequin-like expression, ‘Tae-ho understands and affirms my complex. Even Tae-ho wouldn’t understand your childish body,’ he said, ‘if you like it, it’s a special taste, don’t mess with a normal taste like me. If I hold hands with a child like you, that person will be a pedo,” She said and drove me to a pedo.
As if this wasn’t enough, she pushed Seol-A halfway to the end, saying, “I only have a weak point and only a facial expression, but if you date, you will only meet mentally and never get an answer physically.”

He taps his pen on his desk and looks at the blackboard. Yerin Han glances at me.

When Seol-ah looked at me hesitantly, she knew what I meant, but she didn’t bother to say it. Also… I don’t want to get eaten. Seol-Ah is the proof, and I think she will change her body and beat me, so I can’t relax from the start of her class.
Anyway, once the offensive was over, Seol-ah started her counterattack. ‘Then you guys have only ‘physical superiority’ to challenge Taeho.’ It started with ‘In the end, Taeho will choose the person closest to him mentally. Her body doesn’t matter much. Because Tae-ho is that kind of person.’ She said all sorts of things up until now.
She even provoked her by saying, ‘No matter how much you two fuck, in the end, the seat next to me will be mine’.

After that… It was shit.

From localized provocations like “Did the big boy say everything?” To all-encompassing provocations like “Have you kissed Taeho?” It was like a real piece of shit.

She has a girlfriend, she sings but doesn’t listen.

Something… I have to write a number. Refuse properly… Ha.

“Here you go.”

“Ah… Thank you.”

I hand over the notebook to Han Ye-rin. She keeps crackling as if she’s around her and rattling her legs wildly.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes…”

Han Ye-rin says she’s fine, and she awkwardly nods her head. She doesn’t look okay at all. It’s not really something I care about.

As the storm passes, Yerin Han, who doesn’t do anything, seems to be normal. Since being bitten by the media once, people have changed 180 degrees, so they don’t swear at me as if they are exercising moderation rather than self-control. She doesn’t even mention the term ‘dog’, which she usually lags behind.

Of course, he won’t spit it out of his mouth, but in reality he will grind his teeth far and wide and sharpen his knife to drown all those who curse him right now, so he is afraid that the wind will blow again.

Let’s focus on class…

Tae ho is good

To list the good points, I like Taihu enough to count the nights. She has been awkward with Arin all her life, but thanks to her Taeho, the relationship she longed for has been normalized. She is as close as one with her now irreplaceable brother. It’s all thanks to Taeho.

The first person who realized my sincerity and didn’t deny it. No one saw me as a ‘normal person’ except for my parents, but Taeho noticed this right away and even reassured me that I was okay and that I wasn’t bad. Instinctively, I sensed that this person had a good heart.

With a kind heart and an unfavorable appearance, the academy is always cold to the poor family.

Even so, a strong will that does not break.

Taeho is good in all aspects. Taeho, I love you. Taeho is perfect except for one thing.

That he has a girlfriend.

Except for this one. A really perfect person. A person I love so much that I even thought of a baby name.

After all classes are over, after school.

Arin and I sit on a bench outside the academy and look up at the pouring moonlight.

“…Arin.”

“Huh?”

There is already an occupant. This fact came so painful that I stopped committing rudeness. I didn’t pay much attention when I first fought the witch, but I think someone like Taeho would be faithful to her girlfriend. I felt like I wouldn’t care at all, so I felt impatient.

A cluster of stars studded in the sky comes with the wind and brushes the bridge of the nose.

“Does Taeho have a girlfriend?”

“…Yes?”

“Haa… Why do you have a girlfriend?”

If it wasn’t for his girlfriend, he’d grab Taeho right away and lock him up in Lee Jega’s basement… No. It’s not like that… I would have loved for the rest of my life until I died of old age.

“Honestly, Taeho… It’s even weirder not having a girlfriend.”

“Yeah… That’s right. That’s right.”

Arin lets out a short sigh.

“I want to be loved too…”

I agree.

I also want to monopolize Taeho’s love. No, but… Because I love Arin that much. If so, I want to share her love with Arin. Locked in the basement… Mmm. No. I keep thinking it’s dangerous. Is not it? I don’t think the basement would be bad either… Ha ha.

“Arin.”

“Huh?”

“Am I… Not that attractive?”

Reminds me of Taeho’s eyes today. No matter how strongly I ate my heart, even though I attached all the options called options, I don’t get pushed back a bit like a lighthouse in front of a typhoon. Heart won’t go out As if there was only one girl I could love in the world, I rejected all of them.

“No.”

Arin slowly stroked my back.

“Isn’t it…? I’m not attractive… Ha ha.”

Single-minded.

Taeho’s heart toward his girlfriend is single-minded. All of these can be defined. After realizing this fact, my stomach hurts very much. I feel desperately how thirsty I am for love for Taeho.

Ah.

If that place was mine.

If I had been Taeho’s girlfriend, everything would have been perfect. Me too, Taeho…

It’s single-minded.

If… Tae-ho. If Taeho loved me, if Taeho… Would love me more than his girlfriend.

Everything would be perfect

“…Arin.”

“Huh?”

“Are you sure? Taeho loves his girlfriend more than the two of us.”

“Of course.”

Arin lowered his head. It’s a very obvious statement, but no, it’s a strange statement if it’s not obvious. Strangely, the words become daggers and pierce Arin’s heart with me.

I already have an owner.

I don’t want to give up on this love.

Never.

“Then… Shall we get a little worse?”

“…Huh?”

“Arin, we…”

Let’s seduce Tae Ho.

On the way home after school.

I thought the three of us would stick together again, so as soon as the bell hit the class and the class ended, I gnashed my teeth and ran away. As I walked home, abandoning the bus I used to take, the awkward night air fills my lungs. I walked around for 30 minutes, looking around to see if Seol-ah wasn’t chasing me.

Ugh-

Cell phone vibrates She quickly took her cell phone out of her pocket and looked at her sender, Suh Ha.

Is a girlfriend

“Are you standing?”

[Oh, is it Taeho?]

When she receives a call after a long time, the corner of her mouth dances with joy. Hearing her voice warms her heart. Before I knew it, my walking speed started to creep on the ground.

“What did you call for?”

[Ha… It’s nothing special. I just called because I wanted to hear your voice. And… To inform you of the progress.]

“Progress?”

[You know what, coming back to Korea…]

At las? Are you finally coming?

My heart starts beating wildly. She stops walking and stands in front of the vending machine to focus on the phone.

[…I’m sorry, Taeho. My dad really, really hates you, so I’m not pushed at all.]

“What?”

My expression crumples violently. Are you kidding?

[Once I said without a break that I would return somehow, but since I sincerely go out, I can go back to some extent, but the strands are aligned…]

“Losing?”

[…The timing is unclear.]

“Period?”

[My dad said that aside from studying abroad, I shouldn’t graduate first, so I’m struggling with that. Even holding on to my mom, I still say I have to graduate, and I’m just screaming… I think I’m really going crazy. It’s graduation and I don’t need anything.]

The girlfriend lets out a deep sigh. I sigh too.

“So… What did you say?”

[I’m going to advance the timing as much as possible if I can… I don’t know if that will work. If it’s confirmed that you’re going back after graduation, right? Then…]

I can only see it a week after I graduate from the academy.

“…What?”

[I think I’m going crazy too. Far from being a hero who saved Korea, he only looks like an insignificant middle school student. Really stubborn… Ha ha. The image must have already been embedded in my father’s head. I was embarrassed when I said it sincerely, but nothing has changed in the end.]

“Ha…”

[Sorry, Taeho. Still… As much as possible. I’ll tell my dad to move the timing forward as much as possible. I’ll call you when the time comes again. Huh? Then, good bye, Taeho.]

“Ah, yes… I’m fine.”

Pop-

The phone hangs up.

My pounding heart quickly cools down. I thought I would be back at this point, but Seoha’s father, who is obsessed with stubbornness, is ruining everything.

“Whoa…”

I sighed deeply and put a coin in the vending machine.

“What’s going on?”

A familiar voice is heard. I poked my head in the direction of the squeaking sound, there.

“…Hey old man?”

There was Seol-ah’s father.

“You look bad. Did you hear any bad news?”

“Yes? No, no… No.”

When she waved her hand saying no, Kang Geon-ha drank the Horok drink.

“I heard you come over to my house when it’s time, so don’t you have time yet?”

When you enter the house, Seol-ah and Lee Arin are there. She may be caught intact and never return home for the rest of her life. She waved her hand saying that she had work, and Kang Geon-ha chuckled.

“Well, he’s a hero who saved a country, but there must be a lot of work.”

As soon as I hear her words, my face turns red with shame.

“Hero… No.”

All I have to do is catch Fenrir… It’s already a hero, so it’s all spreading, to be honest, I want to hide in a mouse hole. I’m embarrassed…

“No, hehe. By the way… How are you doing with my daughter?”

“Yes? Are you standing?”

Kang Geon-ha nodded her head slowly.

…How are you?

It’s a problem because I’m doing too well today. It’s because it sticks like barnacles if you touch it.

“You’ve been well, right?”

“Yes, then it’s fortunate. You know? Seol-ah… Actually, it’s a monster.”

Nod. In the story… Monsters intervene. For some reason, my hands are shaking a little in a slightly shaky feeling. She heard the story from Seol-ah, so she knows what kind of person Kang Geon-ha is. Even though she was a monster, she was a real father who raised her like a daughter by his side. Sometimes when this topic comes up when she has free time, she likes Seol-Ah and she just brags about her dad… It hurts her ears.

I love you sincerely. Even though it was hard, he said he was a person who sacrificed for me. That love is too much. In the past… I saw someone swearing at Seol-Ah’s father, and that expression…

At that time, it looked like a real monster. That’s right on the verge of killing someone.

I somehow dried it, but I don’t even want to imagine what would have happened if it hadn’t been dried.

“I know.”

“Really? I guess Seol-ah really said it. Haa… Then, I have to say something too.”

“Yes?”

“Don’t confess in advance.”

I am a demon

“…Yes?”

What?

“To be exact, he was a monster. He only felt sexual desire for monsters… He was a scum who only went into heat when he saw monsters. Do you know Dr. Park Chul-woo?”

A news article passes through my mind. The opaque memories hidden in the mist are pulled up from the depths of the sea.

[Sungkwangdae Dr. Park Cheol-woo “Is the hybrid between a monster and a human compatible?”]

Rumors once spread in the media that ‘Kang Geon-ha’, a test subject in the ‘human-monster fertilization experiment’ conducted by Dr. Park Cheol-woo, was in fact a former knight, This has been overturned. It was such a stimulating event that it remained in my mind once, but after that it ended in failure and was passed over, and then it was completely buried because a bigger incident occurred, and now it has become an experiment that only those in the know know about. It’s just something that gets talked about occasionally.

Still, that memory remains in my mind for a long time, but that person is actually… Seol-ah’s father.

“At first, I picked up Seol-ah for sexual purposes. Later, I came to her senses, and now I sincerely treat her only as her daughter…”

Kang Geon-ha puts on a melancholy expression.

“Only, as a daughter… I have to treat her.”

He started to love his daughter.

“Yes?”

“It’s literally. The opposite sex shouldn’t exist in a father-daughter relationship, but the opposite sex is there. Do you know how painful this is?”

Kang Geon-ha let out a short sigh.

“Each time is a series of pain. You can get drunk right away if you want, but that’s a disqualification as a father. And then…”

“My daughter has someone she loves, she happily told me.”

…Ah.

“It was the first time in my life that I was so happy. She said that her daughter didn’t see me as a member of the opposite sex, and only thought of me as a father. She thought she would die of joy.”

For a moment.

“Isn’t it? Taeho. You too… Love Seol-ah? I know.”

Me.

I have a girlfriend.

As if the throat is blocked, the mouth does not open.

“I want to end this love. I only want to remain as a ‘father-daughter relationship’ for my daughter. This has been my long-held wish, and it has become my goal someday. And… Now I have a goal in front of me.”

“Uh… Well.”

“Please. Taeho.”

Take my daughter from me
