A Monster Who Levels Up Chapter 91: Truth? (5)

(TL: This final chapter of the year is brought to you by these Five Wise n (And Woman) from the East: Anisha R, Anonymous, Pedro MM, Tristan B, and Jeppe BP. rry Christmas and Happy New Year, everyone.)

“You are not doing it, for real? But you’ve been appearing on TV shows a lot lately... why only not this one? This one’s recording ti is also short, too...” (Yu Sae-Jung)

A certain Sumr afternoon.

As Sae-Jin was under strain from his complicated problem, Yu Sae-Jung ca around holding a script from a TV talk show and started whining on and on.

“Plus, you’d be appearing together with ...” (Yu Sae-Jung)

The culprit was the sudden invitation coming from the so-called couple’s talk show.

“It should be nice for both of us, you know? That’s because...”

“Sae-Jung.”

Unable to endure anymore, Sae-Jin finally called out to her in a low voice.

“Mm, hmm?”

Yu Sae-Jung’s body trembled for a second, then. Not even looking at her, Sae-Jin sighed out grandly while massaging his temples.

“...Let’s, let’s talk about it later. I’m really busy right now.” (Sae-Jin)

“With what...”

...With what work?

However, Yu Sae-Jung couldn’t finish her question. His facial expression and his current body language showed how truly bothered he was by her presence here.

She could only gaze at him with her lips tightly shut. He looked so cold and indifferent right now, concentrating on those docunts in his hands.

It wasn’t only this ti, either. She could feel it on her skin, how much he was bothered by her. Even though Sae-Jin had denied it, without a doubt, he had changed.

“...Then, I should get going.”

However, she just could not say anything resentful towards him. She knew all too well who held all the answers in this relationship, after all.

Suddenly, she felt regret. Back then, back when Sae-Jin couldn’t suppress his desires anymore – she should have just let him embrace her...

Feeling remorseful, Yu Sae-Jung grasped the door handle.

“Wait.”

She heard Sae-Jin from her back. Her heavy emotions reverted back ever-so-subtly, and the strength gripping the door handle automatically left her, just like that.

“...Sae-Jung.”

Whenever she heard her na being spoken out from his lips, she felt herself flutter. Sae-Jung turned around, her face slightly reddened.

“There’s sothing I’d like to talk to you about.”

“...”

However, at his follow-up words, her face hardened slightly, instead.

He wanted to talk to her. Kim Sae-Jin often beat around the bush like this, whenever he needed the Dawn’s aid in sothing.

“What is it? I... always welco it.”

But for her, even being used by him was okay. Because that ant he needed her. Didn’t that an there was a chance of things developing further? All she had to do was to work harder to develop the relationship, right?

“Please, co sit in front of for a while.”

Kim Sae-Jin smiled deeply and pointed at the chair in front.

Several quiet days passed by, as if they were proverbial calm before the incoming storm.

Yu Sae-Jung said that she’d do what she could, but she also cautioned him it would not be easy, either. After all, the mont the Dawn gets involved, then its rival corporations would probably jump into the fray as well.

In other words, it was not possible to prevent the news from breaking out.

And so, while he wa

s mired in many different things, the Goblin village was continuing to grow from strength to strength. Now, it was big enough to be called an underground town.

“...That is so sight to behold, isn’t it?”

Kim Sae-Jin broke out in a hollow chuckle, while looking at Goblins playing the sport of jokgu with their short legs and small bodies. These creatures were spending the sweet downti earned after eight hours of labour exactly like humans would. (TL: Jokgu is a Korean team sport which combines aspects of ‘association football’ and ‘volleyball’. Google it if you’re curious.)

Checking them out every now and then, Sae-Jin thought their actions were rather adorable, sohow. Such as, one Goblin who had failed to receive the ball was scratching the back of its neck while looking embarrassed.

...In all honesty, Sae-Jin wasn’t expecting to find more about the fact that Goblins possessed the highest IQ and EQ among all the Monsters out there like this.

< < 24.

“Let clarify further.”

Sae-Jin breathed in deeply and surveyed the surroundings. He saw the faces of the deeply shocked people. Among them included Kim Yu-Rin, Yi Hye-Rin and Joo Ji-Hyuk. It was understandable, really, since Sae-Jin hadn’t told them the truth until now.

“I am the Orc Blacksmith.”

He thought there would be explosions of flashes. However, everything was quiet.

These reporters had no room left to start snapping his pictures, after all.

(TL: I just had to insert the first Iron Man movie reference at the end there. I just had to. That last scene always gives goosebumps. It’s so good...)

(TL: Well, that’s it, then. Off to the holiday season, I guess. Oh and yeah, sorry about the cliffhanger. My bad...)

(TL: But before you go, you should really click on the next chapter link first... My Christmas gift to you all, so yeah, rry Chirstmas and have a good week, everyone.)
