vision was dark. He tried to move his hand, but it didn’t move as if he was tied to something.

“Ugh! town!”

He screamed for help, but a piece of cloth covering his mouth interrupted him.

“Mr. Hyunwoo.”

A woman’s voice that is familiar to her ears.

Who is it?

The feel of his hand caressing her cheek was soft.

Lee Ji-ah!

It was Lee Ji-ah’s voice.

Damn it, what the hell are you thinking?

Even as an S-class hunter, do you think this kind of thing can be legally protected?

If you get out of here, I’ll sue your Hero Association! I will sue you!

“Without Hyeonu, I will die anyway.”

The answer seemed to have read my thoughts.

“You can live here with me.”

She smiled brightly in the dark.

“forever.”

“Woah aah!!!”

opened my eyes

Where are you?

As I was scratching my head between dreams and nightmares, a memory of yesterday came to mind.

The fact that Lee Ji-ah was a dorm and brought me into their house.

Even when it was prepared, the moving center men moved all the luggage from the rent room where I lived to here.

No matter how much I think about it, it doesn’t feel real.

Are you still dreaming? Is this real?

He stood up scratching his frizzy hair.

Cheeky!

“”ah.””

As soon as I opened the door, Lee Ji-ah came out of the room next door.

When we first met, my eyes were open and I was like a walking corpse.

Now, even when I looked at it, it was shiny as if it had been lubricated.

It was a feeling that people become more energetic as time goes by. Actually, it’s not just about feeling.

“Is your bed okay?”

“… Yep, thanks.”

A well-slept hornet.

Because of Lee Ji-ah’s ambivalent appearance, I even had a nightmare while trying to sleep at night.

In an instant, the words and actions of Lee Ji-ah in the nightmare came to mind.

“Oh my gosh, it’s creepy.”

Without realizing it, I rubbed both my forearms.

“yes? Are you cold?”

Lee Ji-ah blinked her long eyelashes and asked worriedly. She backed away in a hurry in line with her approaching footsteps.

“… … Haha, the weather was chilly.”

I can’t tell the truth of such a dream. Whether or not she knew my concerns, Lee Ji-ah smiled sadly and dragged me to the table.

“Please wait a moment!”

Lee Ji-ah rolled up her sleeves and prepared food using familiar hand movements. Korean dishes that were neatly finished up to plating quickly came to the table.

“I didn’t know what kind of food you would like, so I prepared Korean food with ease.”

Lee Ji-ah put down the stew and said. I thought there would be an exclusive cook at home, but it was a surprise.

“… … Jia.”

“yes?”

“Is there anything I can do to help you in the future?”

Recalling the nightmare, he asked cautiously. Lee Ji-ah put her arms on the table and clasped her chin.

“You don’t have to do anything… … .”

Lee Ji-ah, who muttered a little, fell into trouble. For no reason, my lips were chapped.

Isn’t that a sudden change and lock him up in the basement?

It’s not a nightmare, it’s a premonition?

…let’s not even imagine such a terrible thing.

“ah!”

Match!

Lee Ji-ah clapped her hands. My shoulders shrugged in surprise.

“By the way, I came out of the guild.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“Since I’m working as a freelancer, I’m very busy doing things on my own. Even so, I was thinking of hiring a manager… … .”

Lee Ji-ah murmured and looked into my eyes. I’m talking to that extent, but if you don’t notice it, you’re an idiot.

I willingly stepped forward.

“Then I will be humble.”

“really? Thank you, Hyunwoo!”

Lee Ji-ah was happy and thankful.

From her point of view, she also has a view from the outside.

Even if I said bluntly that I was a mental care coach, it was clear that people would only believe what they wanted to believe.

All sorts of scandals will follow.

Even the news that I returned yesterday, I put such swear words… … .

Apart from calming Lee Ji-ah’s depression with my own abilities, it was not very pleasant to eat a lot of swearing.

Yeah, I’d rather have a manager.

When you introduce yourself wherever you go, the colors are different.

‘What do you do?’

‘I am the manager of the S-class hunter Lee Ji-ah.’

‘Wow.’

Social perspective is also important.

tiling.

phone ringing. Lee Ji-ah took her phone out of her pocket.

“hello?”

– Miss Jia, the hearing has been scheduled.

Are you the president of the association?

I think it was about the hearing we talked about yesterday.

He pricked his ears and picked up the spoon.

Well, the stew is delicious.

“You are getting the job done faster than I thought.”

– Because it is a national concern. Have you seen the internet?

“It’s crazy. So, when did you get the schedule?”

– Tomorrow.

“Okay–”

The stew caught in the neck regurgitated.

“Cool!”

Saredlin I continued to vomit. Lee Ji-ah, who was on the phone, ran to the refrigerator and brought out water.

“Wait, are you okay?”

“Cool! Kek!”

He waved his hand as a sign that it was ok.

– Miss Jia? What voice are you just talking about? Are you out now?

The president of the association continued to call Lee Ji-ah, who did not answer. Lee Ji-ah patted my back and brought her mouth to the receiver.

Ji-ah, what are you doing? Are you crazy now?

I hurriedly took her cell phone.

“… ?”

Confused, Lee Ji-ah blinked her eyes. He covered the receiver with his hand and pursed his lips.

‘Say no tomorrow.’

“yes?”

‘Say no for whatever reason. And ask them to check the list of hearing members.’

– Miss Ziya? are you listening

He reassured him with his eyes. Lee Ji-ah, who had a puzzled expression on her face, opened her lips.

“Tongue, president of the Association?”

– Tell me.

“The wounds I got in the Abyss Dungeon haven’t healed yet. I don’t think it will happen right now.”

-… … To the extent that I can’t attend the hearing?

“yes. and… … .”

Lee Ji-ah glanced at me. I opened my mouth wide and spoke again and again.

‘Hearing Commissioner.’

“Could you please send me the list of hearing members?”

I heard the president of the association sigh. raccoon-like chick. Are you trying to get away with being a girl who doesn’t know anything about the world?

-… … The list is not formally notified in writing in accordance with the procedure.

It seems that the story is almost finished, and it would be better to end it here before Lee Ji-ah makes a mistake.

He slit his neck with the blade of his hand. Lee Ji-ah nodded her head.

“Wow, cool! I, I’m sick. I will contact you later.”

I can’t make the acting worse.

If the raccoon guy had an eye, he would have known.

-… … Whoa, I see. call back later take good care of yourself

The president of the association especially emphasized the last words. The phone is disconnected.

“… … .”

“… … .”

I washed my face with both hands.

driving me crazy.

What do you do with this sweetheart?

“… … Jia.”

“Yes Yes?”

Lee Ji-ah slowly looked into my eyes and answered. He calmed the rising anger and groaned.

“What if I say that the hearing is scheduled for tomorrow and I just say yes?”

Where is the organization that schedules the hearing in one day?

There was a minimum period of preparation of the material.

This was extremely unfavorable to Lee Ji-ah. Lee Ji-ah had previously mentioned over the phone that she had refused to attend the hearing once.

‘──Please reschedule the hearing.’

‘Didn’t you say you didn’t want to go to your hearing?’

The committee must have already prepared all the clues to attack Lee Ji-ah. It’s as simple as recycling the materials you were going to use before.

Conversely, this one cannot prepare anything in one day.

If that’s the case, then of course you can’t win a fight that you can win. The other side will play around with all kinds of numbers and witnesses, but what can we do?

There’s no such thing as a parrot.

As the words continued, Lee Ji-ah’s head sank downwards.

“After listening to it, Hyeonu is right. I was impatient… … .”

“And—”

“More, more… ?!”

“Absolutely! Stick it to the ass chair!”

where to end alone

Depending on the nature of the hearing members, it was clear that the atmosphere of the hearing would be polar opposite.

There may be members who want to rise as a star for political reasons, and there may be members who will be dragged into a muddy fight at the request of an interest group.

The list was the minimum condition for identifying the tendencies of such members.

There is no way to bring Mr. Kim, who lived in a mountainous village anywhere, to the position of the committee member.

As long as you know your name and position, you will be able to research your tendencies and prepare accordingly.

“So–”

While I was explaining hard, I suddenly realized that there was no response from Lee Ji-ah.

When I turned my gaze, Lee Ji-ah opened her mouth and stared blankly at me.

She stuttered and admired.

“Dude, that’s great. Hyunwoo.”

“… … That’s great.”

That’s great, S-class hunters are great.

He’s one of the industry’s best.

The lack of social knowledge was nothing in front of Lee Ji-ah’s career.

Is that so?

Lee Ji-ah’s dazzling eyes couldn’t help but raise the spoon.

The stew was slightly chilled, but delicious.

“… … Did you do anything from the first day as a manager?”

When asked playfully, Lee Ji-ah nodded her head.

“sure! It’s all thanks to Hyunwoo! Without Hyeonu, I would have opened my eyes and cut my nose at the hearing!”

He wet his dry lips with his tongue.

You have to say it in such a way that it looks like a joke.

yesterday’s conversation. Today’s nightmare.

They kept flashing in my mind.

He spoke in a passing tone.

“Then that dormitory is separate–”

“No.”

Lee Ji-ah’s face, who had been smiling sadly, instantly hardened. A heavy snow storm is pouring in

Lee Ji-ah took a cherry tomato with a fork.

Kwajik!

No, is this the sound of cherry tomatoes right now?

The atmosphere of a harmonious dining table changed to an atmosphere like eating Yukgaejang at a funeral.

Unable to hold back the silence, I spoke to myself.

“ah… . Jjigae, jjigae is hot and delicious.”

“… … .”

Lee Ji-ah didn’t answer.
