076. The circus elephant

From noble mtl dot com

The circus elephant.

A thin rope was tied to the thick ankle of an elephant several times the size of a human body.

It seems so self-evident that the rope will break with just one step, and the stakes connected to the rope will be pulled out like rotten teeth.

But the elephant has no intention of cutting the rope or pulling out the stake.

No, I can’t.

Since childhood, elephants have struggled to free themselves from the ropes tied to their ankles.

However, the young elephant couldn’t get out of the rope because he was really weak at the time.

Failure repeated.

Frustration being learned.

Despair becomes a habit.

And time passed

Even though the elephant became an adult and grew in size, it could escape at any time if it wanted to escape.

The ropes still tied around his ankles seemed too strong to him.

Kung.

Kung.

Kung.

Somewhere, I hear the sound of tapping something in my ears like an auditory hallucination.

Shin Se-hee looked at what was happening in front of her without even thinking about blinking.

‘This, what the hell happened…… ?’

Even when Jin Yoo-ha first came out

She was desperately thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

Would she say that she would run away and go back home?

Should I lay down on the floor and cry and pray?

I’ll do anything, so let’s grab her by the ankles and beg her not to touch Jin Yu-ha.

Those were the only thoughts she could think of against her Shin Soo-yeon.

The reason why her hair turned white after suffering so much was when her Jin Yu-ha suddenly slapped her sister on the cheek.

Jaak─!!!

“Ah.”

The moment she heard that sound, Shin Se-hee opened her mouth and put on a futile expression.

Because I thought that something really irreversible had happened now.

Because she couldn’t go against her sister’s planting, she even bought a grudge.

Shin Se-hee thinks of the future that will unfold,

I was in despair.

It certainly was.

‘By the way… …. What is this…… ?’

She doubted that she might be dreaming.

But even if you rub her eyes and see, what is happening in front of her is real.

Paak—!

My older sister.

She is beaten.

That’s also one-sided.

‘This is… ….’

Surely, Shin Soo-yeon is an S-class hunter.

Of course, even if there were dozens of hunters above, the name S-class was not light.

She didn’t like to be bothered by her temper, so she didn’t come forward often,

Once she steps forward and swings her sword, a magical storm shakes her whole area and her enemies are wiped out in one fell swoop.

In Shin Se-hee’s head, that overwhelming scene was embedded like a painter.

She was a wall.

She is a genius with an amount of magical power that is incomparable to her own.

A sheer cliff that you can never get over, you can’t even look up at.

She was so determined and ensnared herself that she couldn’t think of any other way to do it, except to take her straight away or hide in order not to be noticed.

‘By the way, why?’

Why is such a sister being beaten like a dog by a man who is only a cadet of hers?

To Shin Se-hee, all these scenes felt like a bad joke.

To the point of wanting to yell at her older sister, telling her not to play with her.

Paak—!

“Khuk!”

When Jin Yoo-ha kicked her, Shin Soo-yeon fell out of the way with the sound of her kicking.

The first possibility she came up with in order to accept the current situation was that, in fact, Jin Yu-ha might have been hiding her tremendous skills.

However, Shin Se-hee’s eyes immediately denied that fact.

‘Jin Yu-ha’s movements are definitely amazing, but… ….’

Definitely great.

To the point of catching up with Kang Do-hee with a man’s body.

I can’t even imagine how strong he can become when he thinks about the future.

‘…… That is, after all, a story of the future. Kang Do-hee is faster now.’

Because Jin Yu-ha had instructed her to analyze the specs of her party members.

Shin Se-hee recorded the movements of the party members, analyzed them frame by frame, and quantified them.

And now, Jin Yu-ha’s movement seemed to be slower than his original speed.

‘Then, there’s no reason Shin Su-yeon can’t avoid it.’

Then she came up with her second possibility.

‘No way, something happened to Shin Soo-yeon and she is now in a state where she can’t use her body properly…… ?’

Then, Jin Yuha opened her mouth.

“If you were that strong, you would have appeared as a villain in the main story rather than your personal story. You sick b*tch.”

“…… Sleep!”

“The fact that you are a personal story villain means that Shin Se-hee can do it all by herself.”

Paak!

‘…… Main story? A personal story?’

Unknown words that came out of Jin Yuha’s mouth.

However, those words were quickly erased from her mind.

Rather than that, I was concerned about what he said at the end.

‘What does that mean? Am i your sister? There’s no way I can beat Shin Soo-yeon!’

Shin Se-hee’s head was refusing to understand itself, as if he had heard that the earth was flat.

Bang. Bang. Bang.

But again, the sound of tapping something sounds like an auditory hallucination.

“Hey, did you think I would be scared if you burst out the mana you saved up cheaply and, well, babbling, ‘Singa’? About the half S-class hunter.”

‘Your sister is a half-class S-class hunter? Magic sword? Nonsense.’

Shin Se-hee shook her head again and instinctively denied Jin Yu-ha’s words.

Boom! Bang! Bang!

“Because he pretended to be an S-class while sucking his cousins, blood relatives, and younger brother Mana and writing them off. Do you really think you are S-class?”

‘…… Suck mana? Pretending to be an S-class?’

Awesome—!

“If you run out of mana, would you be beaten by a cadet like me, S rank?”

Bad-!

“Since Shin Se-hee went to the academy, he must have been very nervous. Why, you don’t have as much mana as Shin Se-hee? So, as soon as she heard that Shin Se-hee came out, she ran out in a hurry. You stupid b*tch!?”

Really-!

The world surrounding Shin Se-hee.

At some point, the unmatched solid world had dangerous cracks everywhere, as if it would collapse if struck.

And that’s the first time in her eyes.

It contains the image of a strange older sister.

She is a woman who drives her spirit without a break.

The woman who choked her with an expressionless face that showed no emotion.

She was a woman who looked down on herself as if she were looking at something insignificant.

Her A woman who would always take anything that was in her hands and control everything over her own head.

A woman like that.

She was Shin Soo-yeon.

“You, you, don’t you know who I am!?”

“Yes! f*ck! I’m Shin Soo-yeon! Shin Soo-yeon of the Singa!!!!”

“My family will not let you go!!!”

Crawling on the floor like a worm in a mess

She was screaming.

Introducing the value of my name, and mentioning my family.

This is really…….

It was so terribly insignificant.

“Ha?”

Shin Se-hee opened her mouth and spat out a ridiculous laugh.

Really-!

At that time, Jin Yoo-ha whispered something to Shin Soo-yeon.

And suddenly, Shin Soo-yeon’s head turned and her eyes met her own.

Clang-

With the sound of something completely breaking.

The solid world that surrounded Shin Se-hee’s spirit shattered.

‘My sister is afraid of me…… ?’

* * *

“No no no no no no no no no no.”

Shin Soo-yeon crouched down and trembled, unable to accept that her magical power absorption artifact was broken.

‘Well, maybe I should call this lucky… ….’

The reason why I caught Shin Soo-yeon here was that I had finished my calculations that I could do it enough.

‘Because he was at his weakest when he first appeared.’

Shin Se-hee’s personal story, “Circus Elephant,” Begins with Shin Su-yeon’s appearance.

Shin Soo-yeon has been working as an S-class hunter abroad, receiving and eating her magical powers from the Shin family.

However, at some point, the quality of the magical power she sent from her family fell apart.

The cause was none other than Shin Se-hee’s admission to the academy, and she was no longer supplied with her high-quality magical power.

So, Shin Soo-yeon appeared for her outings in order to take Shin Se-hee’s magical power.

‘When she first appeared in the community, she asked if she could skip to her personal story if she caught Shin Soo-yeon, but I’ll try that.’

Of course, I don’t regret leaving.

Originally, it was decided that Shin Se-hee would return to her family in this place.

Then, Shin Se-hee, who returned to her house, was waiting for a sweet potato episode spanning 10 chapters.

‘Frustrated that she couldn’t escape her family even if she ran away to her academy, and was mentally and physically devastated by her family and older sister’s gaslighting……. Her mana is also sucked in according to her mana…….’

As expected, I did a hundred times well.

However, the reason why I feel a bit vague about it is because I wondered if it could be okay.

Originally, this process would have been slow.

She attends Velvet Academy and meets real strong people. Shin Se-hee, who has improved her eyesight, returns to her family and feels a sense of incongruity.

As she endured the sweet potato episode, her sense of incongruity became more and more severe, She

She Eventually she realizes that she doesn’t have to suffer like this.

The overall plot is that Shin Se-hee, who came out of the egg like that, takes hearty revenge on the family that persecuted her.

‘Hmm, how will Shin Se-hee react?’

I glanced at Shin Se-hee.

She looked at Shin Soo-yeon with dazed eyes.

She trudged along, shuffling her feet.

“…… Jin Yoo-ha.”

Shin Se-hee called my name with a trembling voice.

“…… Me, first one. Let me ask you one thing first.”

“Yes. Ask.”

Shin Se-hee looked at her Shin Soo-yeon and turned her head.

“…… Shin Soo-yeon, has she become weak…… ?”

Her eyes asked me that, as if she wanted me to say yes.

She was full of earnestness.

But I shook my head.

“No.”

“…… So, were you weak from the start?”

“Yes.”

“Better than me…… ?”

I nodded in agreement with her question.

Shin Se-hee then bit her lip.

“Jin Yoo-ha… ….”

She seems to be uplifted by something.

I closed my eyes.

It seems that the things she’s been through have passed through her head.

“Actually, there are so many things I want to say right now… ….”

She opened her eyes slowly.

“Rather than that,”

Suddenly Shin Se-hee rushes towards me.

Warak─

He hugged me.

“Hold on, I’ll stay like this for a while… Please.”

‘Ugh. It must have gone mentally.’

I buried my face in my shoulder and slowly patted the back of Shin Se-hee, who was trembling.
