“Ah…”
‘Things are going back to normal.’
“…”
It felt like I wasn’t accustomed to the noisy surroundings that become quiet in an instant.
“Father…”
I looked at where I heard the sound coming from, finding Seraphim that I hadn’t seen in a long time.
He was quietly holding coffee while looking up at me. Immediately after taking a sip…
‘It doesn’t taste good.’
I could see him wiping the coffee spilled on the ground while crying, but I didn’t pay much attention due to Cho Hyejin covering her face with both hands.
She was so red and seemed to have watched the situation while I was descending on her body.
I didn’t know if it was because I saw the post she posted or because she was thrilled with her first camera debut, but it was clear that she was flustered.
“Hyejin?”
-Shut up, you son of a bitch.
She whispered it, but it seemed to be louder than intended.
Hyejin cursed.
“What’s wrong? We did really great.”
-Please shut up…
She almost looked like she was about to cry.
“This will definitely make you go up to stardom. In fact, compared to your achievements, you’re not that known to the public because you weren’t promoted.”
-…
“That won’t happen anymore. All of today’s events will probably be uploaded to the community that you often visit… Oh! And just in case you misunderstand, I saw your hand mirror by mistake. It wasn’t intentional. Well, since what I saw wasn’t that important… don’t pick on me too much. I sincerely apologize. However, if such a question arises in the future, consult a friend rather than… a strange community…”
-Please… please shut up.
“Come back to your senses. They’re looking at you weirdly, Hyejin.”
They really weren’t. I was just wondering why the hell she was doing this. With a glance, they might mistakenly think that she was thrilled with the victory of light.
Looking at the atmosphere, it seemed they hadn’t yet noticed that I had already left for the heavens.
Even Jung Hayan, who would’ve noticed it fast, was still in the same position, perhaps because of the confusion in the room, and Park Deokgu, who had always been slow, was still making a fuss. Maybe he was helping to confuse the atmosphere.
“Let’s give them a chance to say goodbye. They will be disappointed.”
Only now did it feel like she had come to her senses.
There was no way she wouldn’t have known that if I suddenly disappeared without a word, Hayan and Deokgu would be disappointed.
I continued as I saw her quietly resolving and solidifying her mind and body.
“I will give you a small effect from this side. Say goodbye to them in my place. You can say something simple, or if you’re not sure… Just do something as fast as possible before Hayan notices.”
I provoked sympathy in case she was a little angry. I spoke quietly as if I had no energy left, and she wiggled her fingers.
She eventually began to speak as she nodded slightly. She evidently seemed confused about what to say, but it would be better than coaching her with everything.
She slowly turned her head while standing up from her seat. That was an unprecedented move.
It seemed like she was acting out of the desire to really represent my position rather than just acting for herself.
The expression on her face revealed that she didn’t want to be far away.
Perhaps everyone realized it. There was no way they wouldn’t know what Cho Hyejin– no, Lee Kiyoung, played by Cho Hyejin, would be talking about next.
Her expression, by this point, looked bitter.
-I think I should go now.
She was better than I thought. Her acting was a bit too serious, though.
-What do you mean?
-I have to go now. I think I’ve done everything I can do here. I don’t have much time… but I have something planned. We’re not in the right stage to tell you in detail, but I’ll definitely come back, so there’s no need to worry too much.
-I-Is that true?
-Of course…
“If you say it with so much confidence, they will look forward to it.”
-It was a short time, but it was so much fun to be able to reunite with you even like this. Hayan, Deokgu, and Sora seem to be doing well, and…
-N-N-No…
-We’ll meet again soon, Hayan.
-Y-Yes… yes…
Of course, Jung Hayan was the problem. The pig bastard was brimming with tears as expected, but in Jung Hayan’s case, it was worse.
Dropping thick tears was normal, but the way she hugged Cho Hyejin, not wanting to let her go, looked a little sad. As she continued to cry out loud, Cho Hyejin began to look embarrassed, but she slowly stroked her hair anyway, thinking that she needed to calm her down.
Jung Hayan held her even tighter when Cho Hyejin tried to release herself now, which made it impossible because she was stuck like a piece of gum.
I didn’t know how she was holding up. No matter how much she supported her strength with magic, she couldn’t tie her down like that without basic strength.
-Waaaah… ugh… waaahhh…
-I-I’ll be back soon.
-Hic… ugh… don’t go. Don’t go… hic…
-J-Jung Hayan. You can’t do that. The… Vice Guild Master said he’ll be coming back soon.
-I’ll come back as soon as possible.
-Don’t go! D-D-Don’t… waaahh… Don’t go…
I saw her looking at the spear as if asking what to do.
However, I couldn’t really say anything.
It would be best to wait for Jung Hayan’s suppressor to calm her down.
Unsurprisingly, Han Sora started soothing her. She actually didn’t seem to calm down at all, though…
-He said he’ll be back soon. It must be difficult for the Vice Guild Master as well. Let go of her, Jung Hayan…
-Waaahh…
– Well, he must be having a hard time too. I understand how you feel, but for now… y-you have to let him go. Didn’t he say that he’ll return for you? He can’t continue to live in Hyejin’s body. He’ll be back in his original body. For now… we should let him go.
-As I said, Hayan, I’ll be back soon. You’ll wait for me, right?
She shook her head without saying a word.
-You will, right?
When she asked her one more time, I could see her nodding reluctantly.
It seemed she wanted compensation for her wait, considering I always rewarded her.
However, there was no way that Cho Hyejin could recognize her intention. She was once again stroking her hair and straightening her dress.
She wiped her tears with her hands and looked into her eyes.
-Everything will be fine.
Or.
-Because I believe in Hayan.
Or say.
-You can trust me too, right?
This much.
As Cho Hyejin continued to say things that she wouldn’t usually say, Jung Hayan reluctantly nodded.
She looked like she was quite good at handling her, so I couldn’t help but commend her.
“If I can do it.”
-If I can do it.
-I can do better. You already said it a thousand times. Stop making us cry and just go. You’re coming back anyway.
-Okay. See you later, pig… bastard. Sora, you worked hard.
-Ah… Thank you, Vice Guild Master. Have a safe trip.
I didn’t say anything like, ‘I’m going. I’m really going. Goodbye.’
For just a moment, Cho Hyejin closed her eyes, and a little light flashed.
Wouldn’t it be better to let others know that Cho Hyejin came back to her body by tying up her hair again?
She tied her hair as if she thought the same and spoke up.
-I was away for a…
-Looks like he really left.
-Yes. As you may have already heard, he’ll be back as soon as possible, so he asked us to wait. I’m sure he will come down. It seems that the Vice Guild Master is also saddened about this.
-Well, we heard it too. I feel sorrowful. Oh, just for you not to misunderstand, I’m not saying it’s a pity that Hyejin came back. It’s just sad that we can’t be with hyung-nim.
-I know.
-You worked hard too.
-Jung Hayan. Now…
-Oh… Yes…
-Are you okay? Hayan?
-…
-Jung Hayan will be fine, right?
-Yes…
She didn’t look all that good. If I hadn’t come down from the beginning, she would have felt less loss. Being given something and having it taken away was annoying.
From her perspective, the current situation seemed to be the same. As her emotions always went up and down frequently, a momentary depressive feeling took over her body.
As Han Sora, who slowly took her away from Cho Hyejin, patted her on the shoulder, she immediately trembled and found it hard to lift her head.
She heard the sound of her forcibly holding back the tears that made even Han Sora flustered.
She was wiping away her tears with one hand, and in fact, it didn’t seem like her mental health would recover anytime soon.
-Jung Hayan…
-…
-Stay… strong. He said he would be back soon. Even if he doesn’t come down, you can become a magic god. I, too, will do my best as a magic angel.
-R… Really?
-Yes. Magic angel Han Sora…
‘She seems embarrassed.’
She definitely was. Not as much as Cho Hyejin, though.
Even after completing one mission, she still looked red, and after looking to the side for a while, she spoke again. She had to finish her remarks, after all.
– Deokgu.
-…
-Can you check with Hayan if there is anything wrong outside?
-Leave it to me.
After Park Deokgu went outside with Jung Hayan and Han Sora, she spoke to the person who was quietly looking at her.
—Finally over. Shit…
-…
—This crazy… Shit… This… This is… Is that motherfucker watching now? Is he looking down here? Shit… damn! Lee Kiyoung motherfucker… that… scammer bastard.
-I… I’m sorry.
—I don’t want to get an apology from you. You must be in the same situation as me. Damn… Shit… I… I didn’t even want to be the Shadow Hero. I just…
-…
‘Lift your head. Hyejin. Why are you acting like a criminal? We didn’t do anything wrong. Are you embarrassed? Are you really embarrassed? Were you embarrassed by the Shadow Hero…’
—What’s the use of saying these things now? It’s ridiculous to say things like this to me. Damn… In any case, I don’t want to be involved anymore… It didn’t go the way I thought it would, but still… damn… okay. The game… I mean, war is your victory. I now…
-That…
—I want to say that I had a lot of fun with you. If it’s okay, I want to enjoy another cup of tea one last time. Can you wait for a little while?
-I-I’m sorry.
—What?
-T-The Vice Guild Master asked me to tell you… that he can’t finish it yet. If I tell you as it is … since things look this way…
“Tell him quickly to do some work and go. So we can solve some federal issues together.”
—What?
As I turned my head slightly, I saw a silver-haired man in a mask looking down quietly.
—Insects that don’t even know their place are messing with me.
The figure had a wide smile.
-That was to me?
