Within the Clan, Moon Ga-eun’s position is sowhat ambiguous. Unlike Kang Juyeon, whose father is the clan master and even has a B-grade Holder rank, Moon Ga-eun is neither the clan’s successor nor does she have a high rank; she holds a C-grade. She is not exceptionally talented compared to other clan mbers. Of course, her father, Moon Jong-hyuk, is a founding hero of and a high-ranking officer, as well as the clan master Hwang Geon-wook’s in-law, so her power within the clan is overwhelming. However, it is her father’s authority, not her own.
She is not a senior clan mber but a regular one. This is the position Moon Ga-eun holds within .
‘Well, everyone treats well,’ she thinks.
However, being the daughter of a core officer doesn’t change her status. Although Moon Ga-eun, as a regular clan mber, doesn’t perform any significant duties, she can enjoy decent treatnt within thanks to her father’s influence.
This is also because doesn’t have a special successor. Since Clan Master Hwang Geon-wook did not have children, the Moon Jong-hyuk family shared so of that power. The ability to attempt to ‘recruit Do Jae-hyun’ after Kang Juyeon was also due to the privileges and recognition that ca from this power.
“Hello, Holder Moon Ga-eun.”
“Yes, good morning. You must be the new mber, Holder Kim Dong-hyun, right?”
“Yes, that’s correct. How…”
“The hunting team knows most things.”
So, during the vacation, Moon Ga-eun consistently went to the clan and did her best in her duties, not settling for the abundant treatnt she received and striving to uphold her father’s honor. Rights always co from responsibilities. That was Moon Ga-eun’s principle regarding authority.
“We have plans again for the weekend. This ti, you must co. I can’t face the Sunset Flower Master because of our little chatterbox daughter.”
… But her father, Moon Jong-hyuk, didn’t seem to care much about such principles.
In the clan, her father’s private office.
She rushed over due to a sudden call, and this was what she returned to. Moon Ga-eun expressed her annoyance at the tedious blind date proposal.
“Oh, co on! How many tis do I have to say I’m not leaving my seat?” She couldn’t even rember how many tis it had been, from the middle of the sester to now, during the vacation. Her father continued to arrange blind dates without a break, even changing mbers steadily. He was truly a passionate father in many ways.
“It’s not about leaving your seat for just eting one peer. It’s about building new connections.”
Moon Ga-eun imdiately countered her father’s words.
“Why should I build new connections over dinner with soone? Besides, you know that I’ve seen Holder Jeong Hyun-seok from work before. Why build connections I already have?”
’s successor, Jeong Hyun-seok. A second-year academy student and a promising Holder who had already been promoted to B-grade this year. He was handso, ca from a good family, and was popular, but Moon Ga-eun had no interest. It wasn’t her style, and she never had any intention of making a lover like that in the first place.
But her father seed to like Jeong Hyun-seok, as he was already proposing a second eting with him. “That’s why. Last ti, Holder Jeong Hyun-seok was really taken with you. It was love at first sight. He’s a young man.”
“I don’t want to et him!”
Her voice grew even louder. Moon Ga-eun knew that when her voice got this loud, her father would respond in kind. They had fought like this more than once. But, as usual, her father raised his voice, leaving aside the docunts he had been handling.
“My daughter, who hasn’t dated by the age of twenty, is frustrated. Why don’t you understand your father’s desire to help you find a boyfriend? What’s the harm in eting soone?”
It was this conversation again. Why was her father worried about her dating? She was only twenty years old. It was like an annoying excuse, repeatedly frustrating her during their conversation. Frustrated by these various factors, Moon Ga-eun blurted out words that were far from her true feelings.
“I already have a boyfriend!”
“…”
With those words, the office that had been filled with raised voices fell into silence. It was an unexpectedly sudden calmness, almost startling. It felt like soone had cast an ice-type spell, suffocatingly cold and quiet. It hung over the room like frost, a bewildering, icy silence.
Moon Ga-eun had inadvertently uttered a ridiculous lie. As she realized the situation, everything seed to fade away before her eyes.
‘This is bad’, she thought.
She had been overwheld by a montary emotion. Normally, she could have said it was a mistake and picked up the pieces, but it was impossible to convince her father, who had driven the conversation in this direction.
Terrifying thoughts started creeping in. Her father’s expression had changed a long ti ago, and it was filled with a strange look.
“You had… a boyfriend?”
Why did that one sentence feel so terrifying?
