Chapter 165 – Huh?
“…Is that right?”
“Really? Really?! Wow… It’s the first time I’ve seen it in person. Can you sign it for me?”
…Who is it?
A suspicious woman smiles broadly and hands over her notebook. A black hat and chunky sunglasses. There are a lot of seats around, but he sat next to me… There are not just one or two things that are suspicious.
“Who are you?”
When I look on my guard with an ambiguous expression, I am surprised and say ‘Ah!’ And take off my sunglasses and hat.
“Do you understand a little about this?”
“Ah.”
Alluring golden yellow eyes. Black hair down to mid-waist. A face that will make you fall in love just by looking at it. Voluptuous body. Even the refined spirit that naturally rises from the whole body.
It is now the retired top-notch knight ‘Janna-ri’.
“Jannari Knight…?!”
Both eyes light up.
“I’m finally recognizing it! I’m sorry. If I don’t hide it like this, there are a lot of noblemen who point out unnecessarily.”
She smiles softly when she says that. Her yellow eyes curved like crescent moons. Senior Knight Janna-Ri. A knight who can be called a monster, in fact, transcending the strength of the human race, with only the highest limb.
Humanoid monster.
He is the one who sent the extreme high-risk monster ‘Replicus’ into space.
As soon as you know what kind of person you are, your body freezes.
‘What, what the fuck…?!’
It is a monster that can’t be defeated even if Kang Ji-ah runs with a truck. No, it is doubtful whether the detached unit will be able to inflict a single scratch even if it is collected twice and doubled.
An alien monster that single-handedly shattered ‘Replicus’, the culprit who annihilated an entire continent, folded and ran across countries in just 3 minutes, and turned several countries that had entered a period of stability into stateless communism. Standing alone in front of Replicus, he was the one who took the lead when the remaining countries joined forces to send him into space.
Truly, a character you would only see in a history book.
Why is such a person here…?
“Hey, what happened…”
“I just came here because I was curious. Do you often go to school this way?”
Nod. The stiff neck creaked from tension. After knowing the truth, it’s hard to even make eye contact.
“I go this way often, no, every day…”
“Then we’ll see each other more often. I’ve seen you on the Internet a few times, coincidentally, I’m off work at the same time as mine. I just wanted to say hello. I was surprised, right?”
Then, heehee laughs.
No, more than that… Work hours overlap?
“Does Knight Jannari work, too?”
“Do you have any questions?”
“No, that’s… I’m sorry.”
“It’s a joke. I’ve been going there steadily since I retired. There’s nothing more miserable than lying in a room alone even if the state subsidies come out in billions.”
I need to meet people, people.
Saying that, Knight Jannari stretched out and loosened up.
“Ah, I’m getting off here. I’m sorry for unnecessarily holding you back. But I think we’ll see each other often, so let’s say hello when we meet in the future?”
“Ah yes.”
The bus stops and the driver, Jannari, gets off. No, do you live around here? It’s only 30 minutes away from my house.
Rather than living in a detached unit next door, the shocking truth makes my head dizzy.

Two days passed.
Right now… I’m watching Siyoon politely greet senior Taeho.
“…”
I’m on the verge of exploding
I know better than anyone that I am weird. Still, the feeling of anxiety… I can’t really erase it.
The perfect alpha male hangs around Siyoon, and there is no man in the world who does not have a sense of crisis.
Unstable.
There are so many women around me that I can barely see them, so why would they do that?
I haven’t even confessed yet… I can’t take it away.
‘Today… I have to ask.’
I look at the two with trembling eyes.

Siyun Choi. Academy Library.
Two days passed by in a flash.
If I meet Taeho sunbaenim on the road, I say hello. Laugh as hard as you can It’s hard to force a smile, but now I can do it without difficulty.
Because I can’t show you the rotten inside.
In fact, I am always anxious.
If Joo Hyuk isn’t around, I feel anxious, and if I’m alone, I think I’ll go crazy. My mom and dad are not on my side, and the only decent person is Joo Hyuk.
I depend on Joo Hyuk for everything.
For me, there is only Joo Hyuk.
I love Joo Hyuk.
I only love Joo Hyuk.
If Joo Hyuk hates me, he will go crazy. For me, there is only, only, only, Joo Hyuk.
If Joo-hyeok and I were to become distant…
It will collapse just like that.
‘Ugh…!’
Erase thoughts
“Senior, then I’ll go first. But… What kind of book is that?”
I became very close with Taeho sunbae.
‘It was difficult to have female seniors intervene in the middle… But it was so popular.’
Seriously, women don’t fall off the perimeter. Starting with senior Socheon, who is graduating soon… Senior Arin Lee, senior Seolah Han, and even senior Yerin Han. Including Akina-senpai in the middle. It’s not flowers in both hands, it’s a bouquet in both hands.
‘Actually, the rumor that I’m a cheater might be true…’
He only talks like that, but in fact, he may be revealing a lot about women. Still, I don’t really care.
Because I have no feelings for you. Just, just, thank you so much.
‘I don’t have… Except Joo Hyuk.’
Actually, Joo Hyuk doesn’t even like me.
It is the sorrow of unrequited love.
“This? It’s a comic book. I don’t know why it’s in the academy… I think I entered it by mistake. Do you want to see it?”
The senior shows the book.
‘The Hearing God Regius…?’
It’s a famous cartoon.
“Ah. This, I know.”
“Really? I’m saving the last volume after it’s out. How far have you read?”
“I… I’ve only seen up to 2 volumes in comic book stores.”
Laugh at bash Then, I feel eyes on my back. Who is it?
“Did you only read up to 2 books? I have the latest books piled up at my house. Would you like to take them if you need them?”
“Yes, yes? Oh, no… It’s okay. Hee hee.”
Certainly, he is very kind. After rejecting it and turning the pages of the book, familiar characters appear one after another.
‘Helena, Rebecca, Jean…’
I like Rebecca out of the two. Because it’s completely different from me.
‘Brave, self-indulgent, unrepentant, introverted, trouble maker…’
It’s completely opposite to me.
“Senior, this comic book. Would you like to borrow it?”
“Huh? No no.”
“Then, I’ll put it here… I have to go see Joo-hyeok now. Well, thank you for always helping me…!”
“Yes, yes.”
The senior smiles at the father. I, too, forcibly laugh along.
It’s a little bit, but I feel at ease when I’m by my senior’s side.
Trustworthy
Slowly getting away from the senior, and starting to get closer to Joo-hyeok again. The stopped heart starts beating. It’s good just to be by your side.
“Huh? Joo Hyuk… Were you in the library too?”
“…Huh.”
Joo Hyuk suddenly grabs my hand.
“Um, what’s going on?”
“…No.”
Joo Hyuk furrows his forehead a little. Did I do something wrong
Let’s think like that.
Heart fills with fear The sound of heaven and earth’s drums travels down her spine and breaks her head. It’s just that she made such an assumption, but little by little her limbs and hamstrings start to tingle.
“Let’s go back to class for now.”
“Yes?”
Joo Hyuk drags me with all his might. Gee, is nothing really going on?
Just because he frowned once, he shrank like a puppy meeting a dog dealer. Yes, because Joo Hyuk is more precious than anyone else.
If I ever fall out, I’ll just go crazy.
“Haha…”
Joo Hyuk lets out a short breath. Lunch hour. It’s just the two of us in the half.
The air sinks in the dreadful silence.
“Can’t you stop now?”
“…Huh?”
The sight is scattered.
“I’ll be honest, I’m anxious. I’m anxious and going crazy.”
Joo Hyuk looks at me with serious eyes. Slightly, there is anger.
“Why, uh, uh, something…”
The lips that used to be swollen gradually become pale. Ju-hyeok’s heavy voice, as it were, beats on his chest like a drum.
I haven’t even said it properly yet. Tension pierces through the ceiling and rises vertically. The atmosphere itself settled down, a completely different atmosphere from the usual one, the mind is driven to the end.
“Being with Taeho sunbaenim. Can you stop it now? I’m begging you.”
“Uh, huh? Senior Taeho, why…”
“It’s just, it’s because I’m nervous. Actually, I… Uh, ha… No, no. I’m sorry.”
Joo Hyuk bit his lower lip. I want to say something, but the expression gets stuck in my throat. He frowned and let out a short sigh.
Senior, why…
“Seo, senpai is just helping you…”
There really isn’t anything else. Being embarrassed and parenting, anger rises on Joo-hyeok’s expression. Am embarrassed. I’m so embarrassed I can’t think of anything.
Joo Hyuk is angry.
“There’s no way I’ll just help you. There’s a woman encamped around you…!”
“Joo, Joo Hyuk calm down-“
“I’m calm…! Ha… No, no. I’m sorry. I don’t know what to do… Yet, we’re not even like that…”
Joo Hyuk raises his voice.
Then there was a popping sound.
“Ah…”
Pingping in front of my eyes.
Pissed off for the first time
Fought for the first time
Quarreled for the first time
I feel like my whole body is collapsing. Feeling of breaking. Feeling broken. The feeling of burning.
My head is buzzing.
I think I’m going crazy.
A strange noise came from his throat, his hands trembled, and his breath whetted.
“Ah, ah… Ah…”
Get away.
Joo Hyuk hates me.
Joo Hyuk will leave me for the rest of my life.
Joo Hyuk, Joo Hyuk, Joo Hyuk…
You hate me
Again.
Be alone
“…? …! …”
Joo Hyuk is saying something. It collapses from the inside, and nothing can be heard. As it is, it seems to be separated from the statue and divided into pieces and disappear. Like an abandoned stray cat. A booming voice. Scatter and disappear
“Siyun-ah…! Are you okay, are you okay?!”
“Are you okay.”
It’s not okay.
I couldn’t see anything, so the one in front of me was Joo Hyuk. I don’t know who everyone is.
Again, alone.
Being away from Joo Hyuk forever, forever, forever. Because Joo Hyuk hates me, even if he dies.
“Joo-hyeok, it’s okay.
He staggers out of the classroom. There’s no one around anymore
When I enter the empty bathroom, a wooden doll looks at me. Inside the mirror, I am looking at myself with a stupid, blank face.
“Ah…”
The broken music box keeps making a creaking, beeping, forcibly moving sound.
The unraveled doll slumps in front of the mirror.
No tears come out
I had a fight with Joo Hyuk.
Joo Hyuk hates me.
Joo Hyuk and I will be far apart for the rest of our lives.
Highly concentrated anxiety. Gear nose explodes
The spirit that has been pushed to the limit and endured with only ‘Seok Joo-hyeok’.
Wood deug poudeudeuk.
Wood deug poudeudeuk.
Wood deug poudeudeuk.
Wood deug poudeudeuk.
Wood deug poudeudeuk.
“Ah…”
I was originally alone
No more, I don’t want to be alone.
Hit the class paper.

By mistake.
A little, I raised my voice.
I was genuinely worried that something strange might happen, so I asked him not to do that… But somehow, he got a little angry.
‘Is it okay…?’
After the class started, Siyoon… She kept her expressionless all the time. When I approach him during break time, he cringes, and when he’s worried, he repeats ‘It’s okay’ like a parrot.
‘Really… Will it be okay?’
Later… I have to apologize.
*
*
*
There is no one around.
Now i’m the only one
Joo Hyuk hates me. Now I’m all alone
When I go back home, Dad hurts my stomach again with his fist, it hurts, it hurts, Mom works as a prostitute outside and I don’t want to cut my wrist, but I have to do that to calm myself down. I want to calm down with something else. It’s not okay, but I don’t want to fight with Joo-hyeok again. But I don’t know anything like me anymore. I’ve never fought before. None, Gangwon, Hate, All, Hate, Dad, it hurts…
“Ah…”
No.
I am not alone
“Seniors…”
Senior Taeho.
There was a senior Taeho.
I don’t want to lose this either. I want to be with Joo Hyuk. Joo Hyuk hates me. I want to be with Joo Hyuk. Joo Hyuk hates me.
Now by my side
There is only Taeho sunbaenim.
‘Senpai, what do you like, what do you like…’
Ah.
The old man likes women.
Because there are only women around. Only a woman knows Because he knows only women, he doesn’t throw me away when he approaches me, and doesn’t reject me when he says he has a girlfriend.
You will refuse
I’m sure you’ll refuse A gloomy, gloomy, gloomy-looking woman like me would never be accepted…
“Ah.”
Let’s dedicate ourselves to our seniors.
Then you will accept If not, I’ll just die. Then you’re not alone anymore. Seniors will like it too.
The senior.
Because it’s horny.

After school, classroom.
Choi Si-yoon suddenly said he had something to say to me… And called me.
Young… With an ominous feeling, I swallow saliva on my own.
‘What?’
“Sir, senior… Senior.”
Siyoon Choi looks at me with the sunset behind him. The mad smile on his lips amplified the ominousness.
“With me.”
“Have sex.”
What?
Both eyes light up.
No, fuck what?
“…Siyoon. What?”
“I-Have sex with me…!”
With tears in her eyes, she asks me for sex. The voice choked with crying bursts out with emotion.
Choi Si-yoon wraps a menacing magical blade around her finger, then she puts it on her neck and opens her lips.
“If you don’t have sex with me…”
“…I’m going to kill myself.”
…Yes?
