Chapter 75

Episode 75

A look of contempt as if looking at an insect.

Isshin said to Sumire in a voice so cold that he was frozen.

“...Hanajima Sumire. You really have a thick face.”

Sumire was terrified, as if she had expected this kind of reaction. That kind of thing made Isshin even more angry.

“...while I couldn’t see it. Have you become dumb? If you have a mouth, why don’t you make an excuse?”

“I am... I...”

Sumire was about to say something, but paused. Isshin frowned even more.

Took.

Isshin stabbed Sumire’s forehead with the index finger of his left hand.

“...okay. there’s nothing I can say Betray your party members. Like you, who fled to Korea.”

Sakura, who was watching Isshin, smiled with a tired face.

“Poop. there again I became a high school student, but are you still like that?”

“hey! Stop eating! A fight with a guest...”

Even Seiji, the head of the party, stopped him, but Isshin did not stop.

“...It was a favor done out of pity for you. The one I put in my party. Even lending a hair to your eerie ability. ...entire.”

Let Isshin aim. Sumire lowered her eyes and averted her gaze. Isshin looked back and forth between Shin Yoosung and Sumire and smiled.

“From the looks of it, it looks like it will come out in a competition. no way. don’t be one You don’t think that’s... your skill, right?”

Isshin moved closer to Sumire and cursed in a quiet voice.

“...pretending to be so pitiful. To cling to a strong person. Is it your ability?”

“I am...”

Sumire repeats the same words like a broken music box. Isshin didn’t blink an eye.

“It’s like a parasite. ...hey. Don’t be one.”

Isshin touched Sumire’s forehead again with the index finger of his left hand.

Took.

“japan.”

Took.

“korea.”

Took.

“Where next?”

Despite Isshin’s questioning, Sumire remained silent. roaring inside. It was also painful to face the past head on.

Before coming to study abroad, Sumire wanted to throw everything away and run away from an uncomfortable situation. That’s it. I couldn’t even think of the position of the remaining party members.

Sumire’s heart was too weak to face and endure in the same place as the people she had hurt.

“I’m... I’m just...”

Tuk-tuk.

Sumire sheds tears at Isshin’s questioning. Isshin tried to push Sumire’s forehead with his index finger again.

“Ask or answer... ugh!”

Kwadeuk.

However, Isshin’s index finger caught in Shin Yuseong’s hand. When Shin Yuseong squeezed his hand, Isshin’s expression twisted.

“Kuh...”

“Stop it.”

Shin Yoo-seong was calm as usual, but he was overwhelming the surroundings with his momentum.

“Yeah you... know what!”

Isshin shook his hand and stepped back.

The power that makes the whole body go numb just by being caught for a moment. Isshin frowned.

“that’s right.”

Shin Yoosung smiled lightly.

It was the same for Shin Yoo-seong himself who received help from his colleagues and learned something.

12 years of training in Musin Mountain.

Shin Yoo-seong, who had no family, taught Sumire something she could never have known while having a meal together.

People change by people.

Shin Yoo-seong was being influenced by his colleagues one by one, starting with the smallest things. It was only after spending time together that I realized that a group of people is more fun than alone.

“I thought then. If you eat that food again. Who should I eat with?”

No matter how much I thought about it, the only person who could say Shin Yoo-seong was a family member was King Kwon.

It was clear that it would be really fun to have a meal together after a long time and talk about what happened after Hasan.

But at best. two people.

If you could pick your family next, who would it be?

Parents who abandoned you?

Shin Ha-yoon, the older sister?

Or is it the Shinno family?

They are definitely blood-mixed, but by Shin Yoo-seong’s standards, they were never family. Shin Yoo-seong’s dreaming family never abandoned a member for reasons such as characteristics.

“No matter what I think. I didn’t come up with anything but you.”

“yes!? Then we are...”

Sumire, taken aback by Shin Yoo-sung’s story, blushed to the point of burning. But there were no false stories. The closest thing to Shin Yoo-seong, who has no family, was his teacher Kwon Wang and his party members.

However, Sumire took the meaning differently.

‘Chi Shin Yoo-seong is my... family?’

Sumire tried to be as calm as possible, but that was impossible. Sumire had already decided on the names of her son and daughter in the midst of her runaway delusion.

Sumire has already completely forgotten about Isshin. Yoosung Shin spoke earnestly as he looked at Sumire, who was holding back a happy laugh.

“that’s right. Party members and colleagues mean that much to me.”

Sumire faces Shin Yoo-seong.

Even while Sumire’s heart was pounding as if it would explode, Shin Yoo-seong calmly continued to speak.

“So that’s about it. Sumire I’m not disappointed in you either. I will not send you back to Korea.”

The perfect side of me that stays by my side no matter what happens. Perhaps this was the ideal family Shin Yoo-seong wanted.

“...Isn’t that what family is like?”

Shin Yoo-seong’s smile looks lonely somewhere. Only then did Sumire know.

[...so let’s keep helping each other. Because we are a party.]

That day.

Shin Yoo-seong, who said that he was helpful to Sumire, was true. It wasn’t just dungeon raids or anti-class battles.

drip.

Sumire has been teased as a crybaby since childhood, but today she feels unfair. He thought that being of help to someone he admired would make anyone cry in such a happy situation.

The tears shed now are definitely tears of emotion that are different from usual. Sumire, who was about to open her mouth to say something, bit her lips again.

back.

Sumire, biting her lips gently, looked at Shin Yoosung. Shin Yoo-seong, watched by Sumire, was upright and kind to everyone. He knew that it was never a favor towards himself.

But...

sniffle.

Sumire sniffed loudly and nodded slowly.

“If it’s alright with me...”

Sumire’s face looks happy even though she’s crying. Only then was Shin Yoo-seong able to let go.

“Sniff! And... I’ll also introduce my family to Yoosung! It’s been a long time since I said that you prepared sukiyaki too.”

Sumire smiled briskly with swollen, red eyes. Yoosung Shin also smiled along with Sumire.

‘...I’m looking forward to it. Sukiyaki.’
