Chapter 170

Episode 170

Korea’s City Guard President. Seonghwan Lee.

Lee Si-woo’s father, he was skimming through news articles made up of holograms with an indifferent face.

“I thought the Shin-O family would be in charge of Metro City. The Italian guild is in charge. It’s a strange thing.”

“Thanks to this, City Guard has received a request for cooperation.”

The eldest son, Lee Si-hyeok, spoke respectfully to his father, Lee Seong-hwan. It looked more like a relationship between a superior and a subordinate than a father and son.

“To Metro City.... a request for cooperation from Shinsung Group. okay. Needless to say, I would definitely help. Collect a lot of elites and send them.”

“Okay.”

After finishing the report, Si-hyeok Lee is about to leave the office.

“for a moment.”

Seonghwan Lee summoned Sihyuk Lee.

“You are Sihyuk. Do you know about Siwoo’s departure record?”

At Lee Seong-hwan’s question, Lee Si-hyeok scratched the back of his head with a troubled face.

Siwoo Lee is the best masterpiece created by Seonghwan Lee. I knew it would show interest, but I didn’t know that even though I was still in the first year, I would keep an eye on my departure records.

“If you are talking about a portal to Japan. Yes I knew.”

“Then you must know where Siu is going, right?”

At Lee Seong-hwan’s question, Lee Si-hyeok’s difficulty reached its peak. It was Lee Si-hyeok himself who always helped Lee Si-woo leave the country. There was no way he didn’t know his destination.

“Probably... an archery dojo.”

“...An archery dojo?”

“It is one of the places chosen for training by city guards in the area. I helped with the selection.”

It is meaningless to lie to Lee Seong-hwan, the president, anyway. Lee Shi-hyeok confessed everything without hesitation.

Seonghwan Lee asked a question with his gaze still fixed on the news article.

“...Without asking. It must be Siu’s request.”

Lee Si-hyeok didn’t answer. Seonghwan Lee looked at the window with a solemn face.

In the city, I could see the appearance of city guards deployed in all places. City guards in charge of public order were essential for the order of the city and the safety of citizens.

But protecting someone requires strong strength.

When strong villains or monsters that were difficult for the city guards to deal with appeared, they became just a handmaid of the Hunter Association.

So Lee Seong-hwan taught his son, Lee Si-woo, how to shoot.

It didn’t matter if it was harsh for a child. Protecting someone requires strong power, and Lee Seong-hwan wanted to create the best weapon.

‘...It’s Japan.’

Lee Seong-hwan was not even curious about what was happening in Japan. However, it was difficult for the masterpiece he was creating to become stained with strange things.

“Sihyuk. Do you know why I left Siwoo alone until now?”

A low-pitched voice as usual.

However, Lee Si-hyeok’s back felt chills. It was because Lee Seong-hwan’s face, as he was talking, looked particularly happy.

“I don’t know.”

The man in front of him broke into a cold sweat even though he was his own father.

“Because he had nothing to protect.”

Lee Sung-hwan’s smile seemed to compliment Lee Si-hyuk.

“...But even the most squeamish cat has something to protect. It will change like a docile sheep.”

goal too. greed too. There was nothing I wanted to protect, so I just couldn’t control it. If there is something that Lee Si-woo is passionate about and wants to protect.

And if that existence was in his grasp, cooking Lee Si-woo was not difficult for Lee Seong-hwan.

“thanks. I don’t know what that stamp means to Siwoo. It turned out to be a lot of fun. Sihyuk, you should go.”

Lee Seong-hwan already finished his thoughts.

Sakura smiled and looked at Lee Siu.

“...I wish it would come in the spring. In spring, the cherry blossom trees behind our dojo are in full bloom, so it’s very beautiful.”

Sakura muttered to herself with a sad face.

“I really wanted to show it to you...”

Lee Si-woo grumbled, fixing his eyes on Sakura’s pocket.

“...what’s the problem. You can come and see.”

Sakura managed to control her expression and tried to hold back a burst of laughter. A man who comes all the way to Japan even on weekends when he wants to rest, and when he shows a slight weakness, he promises to come to the dojo again next year.

‘A very nice subject. pretending to be mean Heh cute....”

Sakura smirking at Siwoo Lee.

“What is that look?”

The moment Siwoo Lee expresses his doubts.

“Siwoo-kun~ Have lunch!”

A voice approached Sakura’s mother from afar. Lee Si-woo, who was lying down, quickly settled down at the voice and stood up politely.

“Oh, thank you! mother!”

“Oh, you can sit down. Whoops~ Be polite! Cherry Blossom. Today, he and I are eating out. Are you eating with Siu first?”

“Yeah~”

Sakura casually took Lee Siu’s hand and led him to the table.

“ruler. Hurry up and listen.”

“If anyone sees it, they’ll know you’re wearing it.”

“I’ll serve it next time~”

Dalgrak.

The meal with Sakura was different from the meal Lee Siu had with his family. Home-cooked food with a warm feeling.

After focusing on the meal for a while, Sakura spoke to Shiu Lee.

“Here, Siu.”

“why?”

“me too. Is it okay if I go see your family?”

There was no reply for a while to Sakura’s question. Lee Si-woo’s expression looks similar to usual, but somehow darkened. Sakura seemed to have noticed even such a small signal.

“Siwoo. my house. It’s okay to come anytime. Really anytime...it’s okay.”

Lee Si-woo silently uses chopsticks with his eyes fixed on his bowl of rice.

“...thanks.”

Not long after, Lee Si-woo opened his mouth and smiled bitterly. Sakura sighed and moved her palms to the floor as she strode toward Siu Lee.

“Siwoo.”

Then, Sakura gently covers Siu Lee’s face with her hand and licks the rice paste next to her lips with her tongue.

“Yum~”

“Uh hehe!?

Surprised, Lee Si-woo panics and runs away. Sakura covered her mouth and laughed like a fox.

“hey! you you you!”

Embarrassed, Lee Siu pointed with a reddened face, but Sakura spoke playfully with an innocent face.

“Idiot~ Cover something like that and eat it~”

To relieve Lee Si-woo’s mood. Sakura’s joke. Lee Si-woo’s face was already blushing.

“You are really...”

The academy too. country too.

Although they didn’t have anything in common, Sakura and Shiu Lee were becoming more and more important to each other.
