"Be honest. You planned this performance, didn't you?"
Honestly. Honestly? Honestly speaking, it wasn't completely non-existent.
I thought if I did this, you'd be startled and offer candy.
But I wasn't only aiming for that. My handso Seojin oppa.
You don't know. When I heard that incident was related to oppa.
When I learned of the existence of those things that made you grow up without even knowing family affection.
I was truly angry. I wanted to imdiately erase those things from the world.
If Seojin oppa hadn't stopped , hadn't held back.
I would have explained the situation to my parents and caused a proper accident.
I like you, and those bastards did terrible things to soone I like.
It's natural to be angry. I can get angry on behalf of that person, right?
"Irina. I'd like you to quietly let this pass. I have my own thoughts about everything."
"Don't say no. If you stay quiet, one wish. Deal?"
Of course, I thought for 1 second about that proposal and imdiately shouted "Deal!"
Am I being materialistic? No. Really wasn't I aiming for this? Of course not!
When the person involved says it's okay, tells to hold back, wouldn't getting angry be stranger?
I'm holding back and letting it pass entirely for Seojin oppa's sake!
I absolutely didn't want this, wasn't aiming for all this when I got angry!
Anyway, with this I gained 'rights.'
And not forcibly extracted, but sothing oppa offered first.
'...But why is this girl here bothering us again?!'
Kim Suhyeon, who ca running after hearing news sowhere, flashing eyes.
More than that, it's strange. I never advertised as Irina and entered quite quietly?
Maybe that old man Kang told her? After hearing I didn't co to work today?
Probably not? I heard that old man is extrely busy with association work right now.
"Get away! Get away!"
"Hey. Won't you be quiet? You're making everyone stare."
We ca to a relatively quiet place, but there are still people around, you fool!
Now Seojin oppa is officially an S-rank ability user.
Naturally, all sorts of people's attention will be focused, and it's the sa at the Academy.
There must be many guys lurking around, do you want them to hear everything about being here?
'Absolutely not. I escaped today saying I'm getting a regular checkup!'
If mom catches this, I'm really dead. She'll say I'm bothering oppa again.
If she catches bothering work colleagues again, she really said she'd flatten my head!
"Why are you coming here to bother the examiner?"
"I've never bothered him!"
"Look at the examiner's expression right now - anyone can see it's a troubled expression!"
This is really crazy. Looking at oppa's face, where does it look troubled...
"...Seojin oppa. Am I really troubling you by coming?"
Oppa's expression is a bit strange. Does he really think I'm bothering him?
Still, I tried to be considerate by changing my style and even putting on makeup.
Hmm... should I just co in next ti shouting "Irina is here!"?
*
"...Seojin oppa. Am I really troubling you by coming?"
Well. To be precise, it's troubleso because you and Suhyeon are overlapping.
If you're coming, co one at a ti. When two of you rush at like this, anyone would be troubled.
Han Jiyoon working hard to check Irina, and Irina looking dumbfounded at such Suhyeon.
At this rate, they might go beyond bickering to actual bloodshed.
Before stopping the two, I should move locations first.
All three of us are now at the center of attention.
In this situation, there's a 'hundred percent' chance of strange rumors starting.
Now, this should be empty, right? It's my personal rest area.
Here, even if Suhyeon and Irina bicker, it shouldn't be a big problem.
...Well, it won't really be problem-free, but anyway.
"Be moderate, you. Really. I'm not the only one, but you're not in any relationship with Seojin oppa yet either!"
Irina's fact attack. Normally Suhyeon should flinch and tremble.
But not this ti. Instead, Suhyeon smiles as if she was waiting for this.
"Yes. You're right. Not yet. Not yet."
See how she's putting accent on "not yet"?
It's a nuance clearly trying to give the feeling that 'sothing exists.'
There's no way Irina wouldn't notice. She imdiately narrows her eyes.
"What are you trying to say?"
"What would I an? Obviously that soon the examiner and I will have a very deep relationship."
Then Irina turns her head to look at .
She turned so hard I could hear a whoosh sound.
"Ha!"
Then she suddenly snorts and turns back to Suhyeon.
"At best so light romance? How pitiful. I'm thinking of a much more amazing relationship that far surpasses that level."
"That's not it?"
"Then what is it?"
"A deeper relationship! and the examiner will soon... be, beco lovers!"
Hey, aren't you going to ask the person involved's opinion, Suhyeon?
I'd still like to think about it a bit more.
"Oh my. Kids' house-playing level? Holding hands, kissing once and you're lovers? My dear child. This unnie doesn't do such childish gas. Real lovers need 'physical dialogue.'"
Hey, you crazy woman. What's that sudden talk about?
"I'll do it too! The examiner promised!"
"...I was planning to do that too."
"You too?"
Then both Suhyeon and Irina look at simultaneously.
As if asking what this situation is, as if asking if I was planning to embrace another woman too.
But you shouldn't look at like that. I'm the most wronged one here.
"Look, you two. I only said 'I'll definitely grant one wish.' What that wish is, what you want - you two decided that."
How was I supposed to know both of you would talk about adult matters?
With Irina, yeah, honestly I expected it a little.
But Suhyeon, I didn't expect you too! I thought you'd just ask for a date!
I never imagined both of you would say 'let's do that!' at the sa ti!!
"..."
"..."
"I'm really wronged."
I tried to act like nothing happened, but inside I'm trembling.
Honestly, even I think this deserves getting hit and having nothing to say.
It's like promising adult matters with two different won at almost the sa ti.
I absolutely didn't intend that, but the result turned out that way.
This isn't so fantasy world where harems work sohow.
Sleeping together is a kind of promise to continue being together from then on.
That's why having relations with others while having a lover causes chaos.
But looking at it this way, I blatantly said I'd do such things?
Maybe Suhyeon will let it slide, but Irina might really hit .
Hmm, but I got S-rank so maybe I can endure one hit...
"Then when is Irina planning to use that wish?"
"This weekend."
"Weekend? Oh dear. I already chose this week first."
"Hey! What's this first co first served!" Follow current novᴇls on novel✶fire
"Here. I ntioned it first."
"I was also going to say it now!"
"Too bad. You're late."
Fortunately, both of them seem to target each other rather than .
Even if they don't use it this week, the promise doesn't disappear.
Seeing how they both insist on using it this weekend specifically... hmm, I don't know.
"No way. I won't accept it."
"Won't accept it? Are you planning to suppress with force?"
"Are you crazy? Do you think I'm that kind of uncouth woman who uses fists first?!"
Uh. That seems right, Irina. Anyone you ask would agree with that.
Even your parents would probably shake their heads.
"Let's decide fairly with rock-paper-scissors."
"Why should I? I already said it first, didn't I? Even if it's the sa wish, the one who speaks first has the advantage, but should I give up that benefit?"
"When I co to the Academy from now on, I'll contact you first. How about it?"
"Good. Let's decide with rock-paper-scissors."
What? What exactly? How is this so naturally flowing?
Suhyeon? Contact just ans contact, not asking permission, right?
And Irina? Isn't it strange that Suhyeon is accepting so coolly?
"And before rock-paper-scissors, I have sothing to say."
"What?"
"No using it later for leverage or claiming legitimacy just because you went first. The choice is entirely up to the examiner. This is just a very brief thing. Understand?"
"What? Are you lacking confidence?"
Irina, who was standing fine, suddenly crosses her arms and says that.
This isn't dissatisfaction. That pose - it's subtly emphasizing her chest.
"I'm doing this for Irina's sake."
"...Huh?"
"In case you lose at rock-paper-scissors and I really take it first. I'm making an escape route so you won't cry and whine later."
"Wow... you really know how to annoy people."
"I'll take it as a complint. So will you accept it or not?"
"Fine. I'll accept it. For your sake too."
This, regardless of what I think, the deal between them seems already finished.
"Single round?"
"...Best of three?"
"Single round. No clinging persistently either."
"Good. Don't you add weird conditions either."
And so began the rock-paper-scissors that would decide the two won's fate.
"Hehehehe."
"Uwaaaah!"
Shortly after, both the winner and loser scread.
"Suhyeon."
The winner of the fateful rock-paper-scissors looks toward .
"That... just asking."
"Yes, Examiner. What is it?"
"Were you expecting Irina to throw rock?"
The reason I'm asking this. Suhyeon's expression felt like 'as expected.'
Irina was screaming in despair while Suhyeon wasn't showing much joy.
"Yes."
Huh? No, wait. How?
"Grandfather told . Irina unconsciously uses her fist a lot, so when rock-paper-scissors gets urgent, she throws rock first."
"..."
Irina. Let's live a little more nicely from now on.
