Chapter 172 – Sister’s Karma

It’s been a while since we’ve been in touch, so it wasn’t good to just talk about heavy things.
I changed the topic and brought up the story of moving to Choi Ju-ri.

Then she was delighted and said.

“Yeah, good idea. Living in a good environment will be better for your health. What kind of house do you want?”

I haven’t thought deeply about it yet.
I was just vaguely thinking about an apartment.

After saying that, Choi Ju-ri said.

“It’s an apartment… Okay, I’ll see if there’s anything good for sale.”

After that, after a few small conversations, I ended the call with Choi Ju-ri.

Next day.
I was excited to go pick up the car that was said to have been shipped.
Still, it wasn’t to the point of breaking the routine of going to the academy and training with Kim Eana.

When we went to the academy, like most people, Eana Kim came first.
She seems to wake up earlier than me.
It must be because of the habit that has been ingrained in the body since childhood.
Considering Kim Kil-sung’s personality, it was easy to guess what the atmosphere in her house would be like.

After a few small words and about to go to the training room together, the classroom door opened.
It wasn’t time for the other students from Class C to come.

Therefore, I was puzzled, and the one who actually opened the door and came in was not a familiar student.

The one who opened the classroom door was a woman with a somewhat free-spirited impression who dyed her hair red.
Age is around mid-late 20’s.
She had a bright impression and had a beautiful appearance, but also had a bit of an exotic feel.

It seemed that it was not because of her appearance, but because of her expression and mood.
This characteristic was often seen in those who had lived in a foreign country for a long time or had studied abroad.

I felt that her appearance was somehow familiar.
Where did you see it?
It’s obviously a first time meeting, but the features weren’t completely unfamiliar.

She saw us and greeted her.

“Hi. Are you all students in this class? Class C?”
“Hello.”
“Hello.”

I reflexively wondered if this woman was more of a professor than a student.
The age is the same and the atmosphere is the same.
First of all, I thought it would be nice to say hello, so I did, and Kim Eana followed me and greeted the woman.

“I am Kim Ga-eun, a new member of Gaon today. She ended up joining the faculty, and one of my jobs is to be in charge of this C class. I came to take a look at the classroom before starting work, but what are you guys doing? Do you guys always come out this early?”
“Yes, I usually come around this time.”
“These are diligent students! It’s so nice to meet you like this!”

Gaeun Kim.
I could finally recall where I had seen this woman.

That’s Gahee Kim.
Director of this academy.

Her and this woman’s features somehow resembled each other.
I thought maybe it was blood.
Like the name Gaeun Kim.

‘Is it the younger sister?’

I didn’t know much about Kim Ga-hee’s family relationship.
Naturally, she was also a famous figure in her previous life, which I regressed, but she was never close to her.
Therefore, it was unknown to me whether she had her sister, her hunter, or not.

At least she wouldn’t be the same S-class hunter, and if so, it was likely that she would be less flashy, covered by her older sister’s halo.
Even in her previous life, there was a high possibility that her older sister came to the academy where she was the director and became a professor.

Kim Ga-eun held out her hand to me.
Means to shake hands.

I took her hand and shook her hand.
And at that moment,

【Side quest has been created.】

=================================

Title: Save Kim Ga-eun from danger.
Goal: Rescue Kim Ga-eun from danger as her life will soon be threatened.
Difficulty: C

Success Reward: Exclusive EXP for Special Ability

Failure Penalty:-

=================================

It wasn’t that rare in my life that a quest was created when I met a new person.
But this time, I couldn’t help but think that it was unexpected.

Because Kim Ga-eun is the younger sister of Kim Ga-hee.
At least so far, I guess, it seemed very likely.
Her quest against her.

Furthermore…

She said, ‘She’s life threatened?’

“Huh? Why?”

Ga-eun Kim asked with her smile on her face as I made her blank expression while holding her own hand.
Seeing that she always had a smile on her face, she basically seemed like a woman with a bright personality.
It was a completely different image from her older sister, Kim Ga-hee.

“No. Sorry.”

Kim Ga-eun also shook hands with Kim Eana.

“Then, I’ll go first. See you later, guys~”

After Kim Ga-eun left her classroom, she said to Kim Eana.

“He seems to be a very nice person. You mean he’s our homeroom teacher from now on?”

Teacher.
It was a familiar term, but it was a bit awkward for us, college students, to use.
Well, the atmosphere of the academy itself is more appropriate to see as an extension of high school rather than a university.

“He has a really good impression~ I want to be close with him in the future.”
“Can I?”
“Huh?”
“You said you came today. You probably don’t know the circumstances of this academy.”

Class C was almost the class that Gaon Academy put out.
The academy paid little attention to this class.
Perhaps one of the many things that Kim Ga-eun took on as a newcomer was to be in charge of this class, and without knowing the details, she must have stopped by this classroom with the intention of watching the class she will be in charge of in the future, as she said.
But when she finds out about the situation, she will be different in the future.
It was possible that today would be the last time she saw her.

‘However…’

Normally, she would think so and forget about it, but she couldn’t just look at the yard where the quest was created.

“What’s the matter?”

Eana Kim asked me, lost in her thoughts.

“No. Let’s go practice.”
“Okay!”

After spending the morning at the academy, I went to pick up the car as per the text message I received yesterday.

“Congratulations on getting a good car!”

It was never in my previous life to have such a fancy car at my age.

Having a new car is a different joy than acquiring new equipment, weapons, and items.

Since I had a new car, I drove out of town for a drive.
In my previous life, I had a driver’s license when I was 20 years old, but I had no experience driving, so I had no choice but to be bad at driving.

But unlike when I was 20 in my previous life, I was actually 40 now, and I was used to driving cars.
So, I had no choice but to be good at driving.

‘It’s good…’

It was inevitable as it was an expensive car, but the car ran smoothly and the fresh feeling unique to a new car added to the sense of pride.

As I was driving, I saw a cafe, parked my car in the parking lot, and went inside.
Because I remembered what happened this morning.

It was still completely unknown what kind of life crisis Kim Ga-eun was facing.
There is only one way to know that.

Reading the ‘Book of the Future’.

Because the quest was created, Kim Ga-eun became a person who was not unrelated to me.
Therefore, there was a high possibility that he would be listed in the ‘Book of the Future’ as well.

Other than that, there was no way to find out by personally investigating the situation Kim Ga-eun was in.
It was impossible to ask the underground guild to investigate Kim Ga-hee’s younger sister.

“…”

As expected, in the book of the future, Kim Ga-eun’s chapter was newly created.
While sitting in a cafe, I opened a thick book and read the contents of the page where her work was written.

When I read it, I let out a sigh.
The threat to life that Kim Ga-eun will receive.
It wasn’t karma she created.
It was from her sister, Kim Ga-hee.

‘It’s a mortar…’

I had never heard of a guild with that name.
It was probably the name of an underground guild, and that guild had a bad relationship with Kim Ga-hee.

The days when Kim Ga-hee was active as a hunter rather than the director of Gaon Academy.
At that time, her mortar hated her, and Kim Ga-hee seemed to have followed her ways and punished her in accordance with her cold-hearted personality.

Unnecessarily cruel punishment.

In the process, Jang Deok-soo’s younger brother, the head of the Mortar Guild, died.
And she herself left a big scar on her body.

‘It’s no joke…’

I already knew that Gahee Kim was a woman without blood or tears.
Seeing her at her job interview, not caring about her work or me after that, and dumping her in her C class.
And her cold-hearted personality could be read everywhere, including the way she ran the academy.

Therefore, this content written in the ‘Book of the Future’ was not considered too strange or strange.
Maybe Gahee Kim couldn’t even remember what she had done in the past.

However, her problem was the fact that this thing she had done was the beginning and her sister was in danger.
Even at the risk of life.

“Hmm…”

Even though we only met once in the morning, I could see that Kim Ga-eun was not a bad girl.
She thought she would do her part for her sake.
