Chapter 16 – Prestigious Lady

Flowering of abilities.

Growth after awakening.

The whole process of going through trials and breaking through the limits. Artifact. Guild direction and subdivision. A strong solidarity that connects the continents.

If all these achievements, at best, were achieved by a small family in Korea. Can you believe

A place where all ‘supernatural powers’ related to ‘psychic powers’ come to receive instruction in order to overcome their limits.

‘Now’ is such a place.

And I’m the head of Ijega. The daughter of ‘Lee Cheon-hwa’.

It’s iarin

What is my life motto?

Roughly

I don’t want to make troublesome things.
Bondi life is to live as the water flows. Planning is luxury, no planning is truth. This was the direction of my life. In addition to that, even if I do something, I don’t want to do it if someone else tells me to. Without thinking, to move according to my will. It was everything in my daily routine.

On the other hand, my father was the complete opposite. He’s the kind of person who plans everything and only feels comfortable when he’s in control. Of course, my heart couldn’t be right. Like one day, my father calls me and sits me down. Conversation, no. He gave notice.

“Now, it’s almost time to go to school. Isn’t our Arin turning 7 too?”

I didn’t want to go.
Why do I have to go to a faraway place and listen to education? It was annoying. And since she didn’t want to part with him either, she told her father. Don’t want to go

Father was against it.
I heard a voice. Why would a child of a young bastard not listen to the words of an elder, and a child with dry blood not go to her place of learning and polish herself? At my father’s word, I

Fuck you.
Replied, It was nice to see her angry like a fire. It was always like this. Because we don’t always agree, we always fight, and fight again. Falling asleep exhausted was the basic routine. The basic point was that one of the two of them would exhaust themselves after doing such a thing, and listen to the request of the one who persevered to the end.

But at this time, my father did not back down at all.

His father’s fist is consumed by fire, burning his eyes dazzlingly.

“Arin, is that why you don’t want to go to school? Can’t you hear this father’s beating?”

“Ooh, no!”

They fist bump each other, but after 30 minutes, the surroundings are already a mess.
Broken and fallen pieces of roof tiles and sunken stone floors. The air blazing around my father and the cool, sharp air trembling around me. The chill from his mouth spreads to the surroundings.

I put a chill on both hands and answer my father.

“I like the house!”

“I’ve been raising you too much!”

“Ooh, sir! I don’t want to go!”

Above my head, dozens of ice spears the size of an adult man were created.
In addition, transparent ice picks grow above my fists. Aim is everywhere except for my father’s vitals.

Above the father’s head, dozens of craters the size of an adult man are made.
In addition, the father’s fist is surrounded by blue flames. Aim is everywhere except for my vitals.

Each other’s eyes meet.

That was the signal
Fang – and The spear rushing forward with a piercing roar came close to his father. At that moment, the father raised his fist and easily blocked the window.

From there, without the slightest delay, dozens of spears flew nonstop aiming at his father. Sometimes with a fist, sometimes with an arm, sometimes with a fireball. Blocks ice spears flying irregularly in place, endlessly.

There was no counterattack.
It was different from before. It was normal for me to rush at it ignorantly, give a little admonition, give a little bit of psychic power, and then listen to me. It’s different this time. Beads of sweat are about to fall on my forehead, and they harden with the chill. Eat heartily. I guess, it seems to be sincere.

I lift my right leg, and it hits the ground with a thump. At the same time, white thorns of ice rising from the floor quickly hit the father.

The father, who opened his eyes, quickly took a side step. I didn’t miss it, I made a ball of ice with my palm, and then rotated his body to throw it at high speed. And when the ice ball flying through the wind landed in front of my father’s head.

Pop and explode
A chill that spreads at the same time. Instantly freezes the surroundings.

Slowly, tired That, would this be enough?

“Is it over?”

The spreading chill suddenly stops its movement. The cold air turns into warm steam and a warm wind blows over me. Stop the bitter wind, and close your eyes.

This is a mistake
I suddenly open my eyes in surprise, but my father, who has already come in front of me, throws a fist that shimmers with blue flames at me-

“Evil!”

Didn’t hit
Instead of burning, I stroke my tingling forehead with a cold hand. This fight was defeated with a bean.

“Now, do you feel like going to school? Arin.”

Dad strokes my hair.

I lost this fight.
Originally, it is the basis of a fight for the loser to listen to the winner’s request. For some reason, I couldn’t easily nod my head to my father’s words today. Even if you want to go, there are things you shouldn’t miss.

“As expected, is it because of that child?”

I nod my head without saying anything.

“As expected, it was because of the lagoon. That child doesn’t want to go to school either…”

My father grunts and clicks his tongue.
Then he stroked my hair harder. Then, stop his hand. Dad looks down at me.

“Then, Ariana.”

“Huh?”

“If that child goes to school… Where do you think your heart will come from?”

Again, I nod my head without saying anything.
Although he is clumsy, shy, unmanly, and weak in assertiveness. Because Seok-ho is the most precious person to me. Also, I have to protect it. Because he’s a weak kid

“Whoa… You’ve got one more thing to convince.”

My father sighed and put his hand on my head.

“Stop going back to your room today, Arin. At least he likes me, so there should be some progress.”

The father, with his arms behind his back, is gradually moving away from his eyes.

Are you really… Trying to convince me?

Of course, if Seok-ho goes to school with him. I can go with you despite the hassle.
However, it is questionable whether Seok-ho will listen to his father.

Seok-ho is a coward beyond imagination.
Wherever you see a small bug, be surprised. If there’s a stranger next to you, you’ll be surprised. If you’re near a pointy, sharp crab, it’ll startle again. I’m surprised anyway In terms of personality, he’s the exact opposite of me. A coward without the slightest bit of boldness.

Also, how shy you are, you never approach people first. I don’t do anything to meet people. It’s a shame because my father is close to the head of the Han Seok family. If we hadn’t met each other so often, they would have run away without looking back when they saw me.

Like that, there is no element to come, but he is a person full of elements to move away from.

But I… I like the lagoon.

Anyway, that’s my preference.

I want to protect you, because I am a man.

Contrary to my worries, my father succeeded in persuading me.
At my father’s words, I also decided to go to school without saying anything.

“Hi…”

“Oh, Lagoon, are you here?”

I wave his hand toward the lagoon approaching me.
Seeing me, Seok-ho shyly waves his hand and hides behind me. And I saw that

Hehe.”

I couldn’t hold back the laughter that escaped me.
I like it so much. Again, I’m happy. The way he knows his own weakness and leans on me. I really like the way he relies on me, and a feeling of elation fills his heart. I stroked Han Seok-ho, who was clinging to my side, and calmed him down saying that it was okay.

Seok-ho and I board the limousine side by side.
A person who is likely to break if you hold on tight. That’s why, he’s the one who needs to be protected. I stroke Han Seok-ho’s hair like that.

“Uuuuu… It’s okay now, Arin.”

“Are you okay? Really? Can I stop petting you?”

As if joking around, I ask Seok-ho back.
If I do this, Seok-ho will answer like this ninety-nine out of a hundred.

“…No.”

No.
Also, I’m still anxious. I have to protect

“Phehe, okay. Stay still?”

“…Huh.”

Eventually, until the front where the limousine arrives at the school.

My hand didn’t stop.

Time goes by fast.
The young day when I was 7 years old, recedes with the torn calendar. The matured body is reflected in the mirror.

To begin with, Seok-ho and I became lovers.
It’s half the love I push and tell you to be ‘mine’, but… That’s okay. Because Seok-ho is happy too. It’s like a small hamster, something I really want to protect. Being bound in the form of a lover, an indescribable sense of exaltation fills me. I’m so happy, but these days, I also have worries.

“Ah, Arin. I have work for a while, so I’m on my way… What’s wrong?”

“Um… No.”

“Really? Then I’ll go first! See you later!”

“Okay…”

These days, more and more, Seok-ho is relying on me less and less.
As you get older, do you gradually grow up? Even if I try to help, the things I try to solve on my own are increasing in my daily life little by little.

It’s definitely a happy thing to have a boyfriend grow up, but that’s a common case… As a ‘guarded man’ is my preference, the current situation is not very welcome.

After school, the sky that turned orange casts the sun’s rays through the windows.

“Whoa…”

A sigh comes out.

Why do you keep trying to escape?

Just by my side

Just by my side

Just in front of me

Taking what I give, just, in my cage…

I wish I could have a lifetime

Why are you trying to get out?

From clenched fists

It’s a little bit, but the chill leaks out.
