41 – Lightning Princess Story 1

“… Okay? Han Do-young, that guy again?”

“Yes, it is, lady.”

Shin Hye-hye nodded slowly while examining the records she received from her faction subordinates.

In the record, there was detailed information about the villain’s attack in the city this time, and the story of Han Do-young, the person who additionally solved it.

Although in the media, it was said that the person who solved this problem was not Han Do-young, but B-class hunter Ivy and Edra Gong-ro, who fought on the spot.

As a result of two people risking their lives to stop the enemy, they were able to minimize the damage to the citizens and punish the villain.

However, it was not so difficult to find out the exact inside story of this case for Shin Hye-hye, the daughter of Thunder Force, who has one of the best intelligence among heroes.

Contrary to what was reported in the media, the two heroes suffered one-sidedly

The one who saved them was Han Do-young, who happened to pass by there, and right after that, he didn’t even care about his achievements–

It is said that he left the place leisurely as soon as he defeated the villain.

And now, Shin-hye, who is seeing and receiving such facts, was slowly nodding her head.

‘I killed the A-level villain who was unilaterally attacking two B-level heroes.. Well, with his skills, it’s possible.’

Suddenly, the scene she had seen before began to resurface in Shin Hye-hye’s head.

Han Do-young, who literally wiped out the A-level villains who had many B-level villains that even she had no way to do, as if cleaning.

Even thinking about it now, it was a very dangerous moment, but for some reason, when she recalls that scene, Shin-hye strangely feels her heart pounding, and Do-young’s face she saw at the time fills her heart. It has become so clearly established.

‘Thinking back on it, it was really amazing.

While thinking such things, Shin-hye starts blushing slightly without her knowledge.

But right after that, she recognized that her clique colleague Kim Gang-seon was by her side, and she asked in a quiet voice with her calm expression on her face again.

“By the way… Did you know what I was asking for? What kind of training did that man go through and how did he lead such a powerful life?”

“Sorry, ma’am. In that regard, we are also well… First of all, there are very few records available right now, so there seems to be a limit to finding out something only with documented data.”

“Ummm.. Well, since he said he came from the Villains Union in the past… It’s only natural that he lacks information.”

No matter how good her information network was, it was not easy to find out what was presumed to be the secret information of the Villains.

What’s more, the current Villain Alliance is virtually destroyed due to internal divisions among themselves.

It was Hwang.

Finding information about a ruined organization is as difficult as finding something in the ashes.

But…

Despite these difficulties, at this moment, Shin-hye did not give up on finding information about Han Do-yeong.

It wasn’t just because of Shin-hye’s state of mind that, for some reason, after the day of the attack, she couldn’t easily stop thinking about Han Do-yeong.

‘I have to find out somehow… The secret of that absurd strength… If I don’t find out and learn it, maybe I’ll have that nightmare experience again…’

Even at this very moment, the images of dying comrades shimmering in front of her eyes.

Her feelings of remorse for it were still entrenched in Shin-hye’s heart like a hard nail in her heart, haunting her.

‘If… If I had been a little stronger… I wouldn’t have lost my friends like I did then. In order to never go through something like that again… Even if it’s to gain the strength to protect everyone, I have to become stronger than I am now.’

There was a limit to the strength that could be obtained through normal methods.

This was evident from the fighting power of the other faction leaders within her academy, who were considered stronger than her by her side.

She acknowledged that they were strong, but nevertheless, Shinhye was able to estimate the strength of the other two to some extent.

On the other hand, the strength Han Do-young showed could be said to be a level of strength whose end is unknown.

The power she showed in her sparring with her was overwhelming, yet powerful enough to be regarded as something else.

Shin-hye was able to recognize that being able to acquire such power at the same age as her was not simply a matter of talent.

‘There is definitely something in that power. Something we can’t normally think of… I’ll definitely find out what it is, even for the sake of my dead comrades.’

With such a determined resolution, Shin Hye Choi once again sets her heart on her own.

Then…

Looking at Shin-hye like that, Kim Kang-seon, who was standing by her side, began to open her mouth with a more cautious voice.

“That… Lady Shin-hye? Actually, there is something I want to tell you about it.”

“What is it?”

Kim Kang-seon has a personality that is far from talking about something serious.

Watching her try to speak in a tone that seemed to contain something of her weight, Shin-hye automatically began to feel curious.

And, Kim Kang-seon’s words began with receiving her expectations.

It’s…

“I’ve been feeling this for a long time.. Isn’t it just a matter for Lady Shin-hye to go and ask?”

“M… what?”

“No.. As I said, it is impossible to get secrets through the back roads… Now that it’s like this, wouldn’t it be easier and faster to pay my own money and buy the genuine product instead of illegal downloads?”

“… “

In fact, Kang Seon tells a story close to the truth.

Regarding this, Shin-hye’s face momentarily began to glow with bewilderment.

And…

Looking at her like that, Kang Seon continued to speak her words.

“The secret of Han Do-young’s strength that Lady Shin-hye wants to know. It’s a young lady’s specialty to negotiate like that in the first place and then boil her opponent.”

“….. Um.. That’s it… It is, but…”

While putting on a puzzled expression at Kim Kang-seon’s words, Shin-hye could only nod her head in her heart.

As she said, now that the expedient of background investigation is not working, what remains is to proceed with the work from the front.

But…

Even when she started to think that the answer seemed right, Shin-hye couldn’t make up her mind to put it into practice for some reason.

‘Certainly, that seems to be the only way for now… For some reason, I find it difficult to see the man’s face. Although I don’t know why. The thought of meeting that man in person already makes me feel good..’

An unnatural and awkward sensation that can be felt just by simply thinking of his face.

However, despite this incomprehensible discomfort, Shin-hye finally had to make up her mind.

‘Yeah.. Now is not the time for me to be swayed by these strange feelings. The important thing is to obtain a stronger power than now in any way. If that’s the case, going to him and bowing my head is not a problem.’

Choi Hye Hye started to think that she really would get down on her knees and get her head if need be.

This was a resolution she could never have imagined if she had been just a few days ago.

As the eldest daughter of her cause, who values her face as much as her life, to think of bowing her head for something else of her own.

It was clear that if she had seen her past she would have been horrified as to what a crazy idea this was.

However, at this moment, she was considered something she could bend over and over again if necessary.

‘I will do anything to protect my comrades. If only I could become stronger… If I could get my hands on power, I’d be happy…’

“….?”

Early in the morning, right after going to the academy, I found something in the drawer of my desk.

‘… What’s this? Why is the letter?’

New white stationery sealed tightly with beeswax.

Looking at it, which gave off a feeling of being a fairly classic way of communication, I carefully opened it and began to check its contents.

And right after that, the words that automatically came out of my mouth.

It’s…

“… This guy… Is he still out of his mind?’
