Chapter 192 – Chapter 192- Who Are You?

After establishing a clear relationship with Areum.

“Brother, ah~.”

As if to show that her relationship with me has improved, Areumie has been acting cute.

“… I’ll eat.”

It’s only been a day, but seeing Ah-reum pretending to be a newlywed couple.

I ate the grilled eel that Ah-Reum prepared for her in the morning.

“Ah~ My older brother is also cha-am. You pulled out a thick one this morning, but I don’t have the strength to do that.”

Then Areum smiled lightly and placed a piece of eel on top of my rice.

“Whoop whoop.”

Just looking at the way I eat makes me feel full.

Ah-reum clasped her hands together, and she looked at me with happy eyes.

There was something like dripping love and a strong desire for exclusiveness in her sparkling golden eyes.

“You’re cute, brother.”

Areum-i, who is hesitant, raises one point as soon as her eel disappears.

As I was eating the side dishes that Ah-reum gave me, at some point my rice was empty.

Hehe~.”

Ah-reum pushed her deftly finished dishes into her sink and tied her own hair.

She showed off her white nape and smooth armpits.

As I stared blankly at her, Areumie smiled strangely and shook her head gently at me.

“How is it, brother. Do you get along well?”

The neat and slim beauty of Areumi, wearing her apron and tying her hair, was definitely destructive.

As I silently raised her thumb, Areum swallowed her gulp.

“Then… Shall we keep it simple, just a little bit?”

“No.”

Already this morning, I couldn’t win over Areumi’s sincerity and took a step out.

“Hey.”

Ah-Reum obediently lowered her head and started washing her dishes.

Unlike the way she coveted my body secretly by herself, Ah-reum realized the pleasure of matching her body for the first time.

As if proving that stealing, which I learned late, is scary, it has been flirting with me every moment like this.

Since we were already living together, the number of flirtations thrown in a day exceeded dozens of times.

I, too, hadn’t tasted Areum’s body for a while, so I sometimes skipped over it.

Yesterday, my day disappeared because of that.

Areumie’s physical strength was at a level where she recovered exponentially quickly.

Half dragon body.

Having conditions similar to my body, which recovers faster than Kim Cha-ryeok, Areum-i was very resilient.

So yesterday, I wasted all my time just lying around with Areum.

In the afternoon, Kim Ji-hye contacted me asking why I didn’t come to the shadow family, but when I briefly explained the current situation, she replied, “I understand.”

Obtaining negative energy from Areum.

It had been done to women’s camps until now, and it was even arranged by Kim Ji-hye.

Why?

Oddly enough, Kim Ji-hye doesn’t put a period in her usual text.

Yesterday’s text message, as if nervous, saying ‘I got it’ and putting a period on my mind slightly bothered me.

So today, as soon as I ate breakfast, I decided to head to the Shadow Family.

It’s because if you make coffee in the morning, Kim Ji-hye’s mood is relieved.

“I’ll be back, beautiful.”

“Yes, brother, have a good trip.”

Areum was washing the dishes and greeted me.

“You should be back by this evening.”

“Yeah, I think I’ll probably come back after training.”

Originally, Areum would have gone to the training ground with her, but for today, she decided to stay at home.

There is so much positive energy that I gave you yesterday, and it takes time to accept it quietly.

Also, since Areumie’s unstable body condition, who came to visit me periodically, was today, I had to prepare to receive and eat my blood while taking a break.

“Yes, I understand. Then I’ll prepare dinner.”

“Okay.”

It was the same conversation as before, but somehow it felt sweet.

Stepsisters, newlyweds.

Even in my opinion, it was a devastating combination.

Because of training, it was obvious that Kim Cha-ryeok, not realizing the relationship between Ah-reum and me, would cry and rejoice if he saw this scene.

Just like that, I was about to dress up my shoes in the shoe closet and go out.

I heard the same lively Areumyi’s voice as before.

“Oh, brother.”

“Why?”

“When you come back, you shouldn’t have the smell of cigarettes in strange places.”

“… What… What?”

Swoop, swoosh, swoosh.

The inorganic sound of washing dishes came from the kitchen.

“Ah, my brother, you know that.”

Arum spoke to me in an unchanging voice.

“Did you think I wouldn’t notice? No matter how much you remove the smell, you can still feel it in your brother’s blood?”

Gulp.

Dry spittle ran down her throat.

The day I returned from sleeping with Kim Ji-hye, Ah-reum was aware of my situation.

“Because I know that my older brother’s pilgrimage to women is complicated. I didn’t say much… But not today. Okay?”

Naturally, without expression.

A beautiful woman with sparkling golden eyes passed by.

“Okay?”

However, Areum continued to ask me questions in a lively voice.

“Okay, brother?”

“Uh, yes. I was planning to come after training today anyway.”

“Yes, that’s why I was told that I should come right away. Obviously, because you promised me that yesterday. It’s common sense that her sister manages her brother’s schedule.”

Swoop, swoosh, swoosh.

The sound of washing dishes, which had stopped for a moment, was heard again.

I hurriedly greeted Areum and walked out the front door.

Bang.

As soon as I closed the front door, I wiped a drop of cold sweat from my forehead.

“… This.”

The feeling of a newlywed home with Areum was good, but she could see the hardships I would go through in the future in return.

I sighed quietly.

* *

The main building of the Shadow Family, the topmost room.

When I entered the room, Jihye Kim’s office, I saw Jihye Kim taking out her cigarette and biting it.

“… Are you here?”

Kim Ji-hye has been smoking since the morning and looking through documents.

Kim Ji-hye’s dark circles, which disappeared due to her previous relationship with me, were settled under Kim Ji-hye’s eyes again.

It was a part that showed how much Kim Ji-hye was hit by work, so I was a little sympathetic.

Like Hongma-dong’s trademark red sunglasses.

Jihye Kim’s dark circles also felt like they had become a symbol.

If you don’t have it, it’s empty… Isn’t there such a thing.

Every time I enter the office, I smoke.

Jihye Kim, looking at her papers with her slight frown, her dark circles looked so good.

“What you looking at.”

As I was staring blankly at Kim Ji-hye, Kim Ji-hye frowned at her and put her aside at me.

“It’s nothing.”

I blurted out my words and went straight to the coffee machine in the corner of the office.

The coffee machine that Jihye Kim prepared for me.

Let’s brew coffee with the skillful skill we learned from the store manager for about a year.

Jihye Kim’s eyebrows twitched.

‘Also.’

My prediction was right.

That action just now appeared when Kim Ji-hye’s displeasure eased a little.

It was clear that I was annoyed at the fact that I couldn’t visit the Shadow Family yesterday.

“I’m sorry.”

Let’s put the coffee according to Kim Ji-hye’s taste on the table and hand over the apple.

Kim Ji-hye silently took a sip of her coffee.

“What.”

At first, the taste seemed acceptable.

Looking at Kim Ji-hye, who answered me with a slightly relaxed look.

I apologized once again.

“It was supposed to come yesterday, but I couldn’t come. You must be busy, but I was worried that the schedule might have been messed up.”

“… Whoa.”

Kim Ji-hye let out a sigh and tousled her own hair.

“Hey.”

“Yes?”

As if annoyed, Kim Ji-hye continued her words.

“Why didn’t you tell me beforehand? If she’s going to have a relationship with that half-dragon guy, I’ll have to contact her briefly.”

“No, it suddenly went into that mood…”

“Yeah, it could be. But how do you spend a day eating rice cakes with the guy you think is your sister, just to get something?”

“Yes Yes?”

The part where Kim Ji-hye got angry was a different part from what I thought.

“Fuck… Was that good? What, fuck… All day.”

“No, Jihye noona. It’s not like that, Areumie is a half-dragon, so to get Yin energy… It takes a lot.”

“……”

Kim Ji-hye said nothing and broke her cigarette.

“Yeah, I know. I know… Ah, fuck…”

Kim Ji-hye spat out her swear words and hit the desk with a bang.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry!”

I didn’t know what it was, but I apologized.

Then Kim Ji-hye lowered her head and pulled out her own hair.

“… Fuck, why am I like this.”

Kim Ji-hye murmured something and took out her cigarette again.

Kim Ji-hye, who was smoking a cigarette in silence with a slightly embarrassed expression, not annoyed anymore, said to me.

“It’s okay. That’s all done, let’s talk about important things from now on.”

“Yep.”

I quickly sat down on her chair in front of Kim Ji-hye’s desk.

“Kang Han-jun.”

Kim Ji-hye called me with the most sincere eyes.

“Yes.”

When I answered, Kim Ji-hye continued her words.

“There’s less than a week left until the day to offer true blood. Are you ready?”

“… Roughly.”

At my words, Kim Ji-hye continued to suck on her cigarette.

Jihye Kim, spitting out her smoke, asked me.

“They will meet at that time, everyone will know.”

“Yes.”

The 5 evil factions where Merlin died.

The phoenix of the Phoenix Clan.

Li Shang of the Dool clan.

The Dark Ghost of the Gsonbird Clan.

A shaman from the House of Clockwork and a shaman from the House of Steel.

The heads of these factions have been stored in my mind several times.

“Yeah, it’s when you meet them when you offer true blood. Don’t let your guard down. You’re on that day.”

Kim Ji-hye whispered to me as if to keep in mind.

“Because we need to see if we can fix the instability of true blood.”

“… Yes.”

I nodded calmly.

That day.

On the day of offering true blood, I fooled everyone’s eyes except Kim Ji-hye.

I had to figure out the instability of true blood.

If anything was even slightly odd… It was to the point where we couldn’t be sure what would happen next.

“Okay, that’s all you need to know. Then today, let’s test your authority, as I said before.”

The business is over, and now it seems like it’s time to move on to the real thing.

Jihye Kim rose from her seat.

I also followed Kim Ji-hye and took her place.

I remembered something I had to say, so I called Kim Ji-hye over.

“Oh, I have something to tell you.”

“…?”

Kim Ji-hye twitched her eyebrows as if to say something.

I casually brought out one fact.

“Now I’m Merlin in my dreams.”

“……”

Jihye Kim didn’t say anything.

I smiled and said the same thing again.

“I’m also a bit curious, but Merlin appeared in my dream. So, by the way, what kind of action did the evil powers take before that. I think everyone knows…”

“… What?”

Jihye Kim nodded her head as if she couldn’t believe it even after hearing it.

“Merlin is here. The dead Merlin is in my dream.”

“……”

Kim Ji-hye, who fell silent again, quietly lit a cigarette on the spot.

“Fuck.”

Those were the first words that came out of Kim Ji-hye’s mouth after she had finished burning her cigarette.

* *

“Heh, heh, heh.”

To the sound of her hum, her tail swayed vigorously to and fro.

The owner of the tail, which expresses pleasant things at a glance, smiled.

“Now, let’s go down.”

Snap.

As if her triangular ears had waited a long time, her body trembled.

Miho.

The youngest member of her tailed fox clan, she smiled as she eagerly packed her things in her room.

“… I have to show youhehe.”

Miho staring proudly at her, her own wagging tail.

Miho smiled broadly as she looked at her own tail, now five, not four.

If you saw this tail, how would you react?

Just imagining it was thrilling.

In the meantime, she cut off all news and focused only on her training.

It was all because of this.

“……”

She herself wanted to contact her on her cell phone in front of her, even now.

Showing off her own sense of accomplishment, she was more than willing to make a surprise appearance.

“Let’s go.”

Looking down at her packed luggage, Lee Mi-ho murmured.

Although she decided to listen briefly to her mother, what had happened so far.

That would have been for a while.

Today or tomorrow.

Lee Mi-ho smiled as she realized that the meeting she had been waiting for would return.

Hehe..Hehe~ Han Jun-ah.”

Wagging its five tails.
