Chapter 299
The last ti he had co out, he had run into Kim Chaegon.
This ti, was it Luna?
Seonghyun accepted the greeting, a little dazed.
Standing to talk felt awkward, so he asked,
"Would you like to sit?"
“Ah, yes.”
He said that to Luna, and she answered in kind, taking the seat across from him.
Maybe that was the reason for the whispers.
“Wow, did she just score?”
“They look like they know each other.”
“They really are a gorgeous pair.”
“She’s really pretty.”
“I know, right.”
A few won murmured like that, then looked away with sullen faces.
There was no point in staring if it only fed jealousy, though they kept looking anyway, even when trying not to.
Seonghyun let it pass and ignored them.
People were misunderstanding Luna as his girlfriend, but that was not true.
As he sat quietly, she spoke.
“Ah, my na is Ahn Yubin.”
“Ah. I’m Yoo Seonghyun.”
Given his nickna was Seonghyun, she probably expected as much.
At any rate, when he said that, Luna, or rather Ahn Yubin, chuckled knowingly and nodded.
Watching her, Seonghyun felt how different the atmosphere around her was.
Inside Eternal World, Luna, Ahn Yubin, was dressed rather scantily because of her class.
In reality, she was remarkably modest.
She was the very picture of a well-bred lady.
Her neat attire and composed manner gave off an elegant air.
‘Hmm.’
He wondered how she ended up with that class.
It was a bit of a pity to think about, but it was not his business.
“Did you co to shop, Seonghyun-nim?”
“Ah, yes. It’s my mother’s birthday tomorrow.”
“Ah! I see.”
“Luna, no, Yubin-nim, are you shopping too?”
“Yes, my older sister asked
to co along.”
He thought that she had an older sister, and then the surna Ahn crossed his mind.
Could it be?
Just as he was about to ask, a familiar face entered the cafe.
Beside her stood another person.
“Oh? You two were together!?”
“So you were?”
Yoo Mina showed up, a bit boisterous as ever.
And beside her, speaking quietly as she watched, was Ahn Yoojin.
Seeing that, both of them reacted.
“…Noona?”
“…Unnie?”
And Seonghyun looked at Ahn Yubin in surprise.
Could it be that Ahn Yoojin's younger sister was Luna?
Thinking that, he looked at Ahn Yubin, and since Ahn Yubin already knew that the two were siblings, she wasn't particularly surprised.
However, she had a surprised expression because she hadn't expected to see them here by chance.
“To think we’d all et here like this?”
“I know, right.”
Ahn Yoojin also nodded at Yoo Mina's words.
“Ah, I didn't know you two were sisters.”
“Ah? Did Seonghyun not tell you?”
“…No.”
“Well, it’s possible not to know, we have an age gap.”
To think that Luna was his older sister's friend's younger sister.
He was a little surprised.
Co to think of it, he seed to rember hearing that she had a younger sister before.
But to think they would et in this vast place.
As Seonghyun was a little surprised.
“Phew, I finally got so ti off, so we ca out together, and to think we'd et like this.”
“I know, right.”
“So what should we do?”
Ahn Yoojin said that and looked at Yoo Mina and Seonghyun, and Seonghyun tilted his head as if asking what they were going to do.
“Since we t, should we hang out together?”
“Oh? That sounds good. Mom was nagging
about staying at ho all the ti anyway.”
Yoo Mina smiled as if she liked the idea.
She had already bought her mother's gift, and she had no other business.
Besides, hadn't Lee Na-kyung said sothing a few days ago?
It would be nice to hang out together since they t here.
She readily accepted.
Seonghyun also nodded as if it were no big deal.
“Sounds good.”
As Seonghyun replied.
Ahn Yubin reacted belatedly.
“Ah, ah, I, I'd like that too.”
“Heeung~?”
“Ohong~?”
At Ahn Yubin's reaction, Yoo Mina and Ahn Yoojin's eyes narrowed as they looked at the two.
Then, with a strange expression mixed with laughter, Yoo Mina and Ahn Yoojin looked at each other and nodded.
As soon as he saw the two of them looking strange.
Seonghyun felt a sohow ominous feeling and belatedly tried to refuse.
But it was too late.
“Good, good.”
“Hehehe, great! Then shall we go?”
Ahn Yoojin and Yoo Mina said that and each led their younger siblings out as if dragging them.
And the n who were watching them spoke as if they were shedding tears of blood.
“…Did he save the country in a previous life?”
“…Wow.”
“I'm seriously jealous.”
“He's surrounded by beautiful won. I wish that was .”
“…Look at your own face.”
So, with a combination that drew stares from both n and won, the four of them ended up spending ti together.
3.
None of the four had any particular plans, so they decided to just go with the flow.
First, Seonghyun and Yoo Mina put the gifts they bought into the small trunk of the Ferrari and then regrouped.
“Should we eat first?”
“It’s already about that ti.”
Yoo Mina said, and Ahn Yoojin nodded as well.
While shopping, it had already reached lunchti.
Since it was past noon, the older sisters, Yoo Mina and Ahn Yoojin, were pondering what to eat.
anwhile, Seonghyun, who didn't particularly care, and the quiet younger sister, Ahn Yubin, just waited.
Seeing this, Yoo Mina turned to Seonghyun with a look that seed to ask him for a good idea.
“Want anything to eat?”
“Hmm, not really. What about you, Yubin?”
“Yes?”
A little surprised by the sudden question, Ahn Yubin repeated it back.
“Is there anything you'd like to eat?”
“Ah... I’m fine with anything.”
When Ahn Yubin answered quietly, Yoo Mina looked at Seonghyun with a sly smile and half-lidded eyes.
“Is this you taking care of your backup team?”
“Oh?”
Ahn Yoojin looked on with interest as well.
Seonghyun looked at those two as if they were crazy and said,
“I’m just asking because I don’t have anything I want to eat.”
“Ahem, okay. Anyway, what about you, Yoojin?”
Yoo Mina, feigning total understanding at Seonghyun’s answer, turned to Yoojin with the sa question.
After thinking for a mont, Ahn Yoojin said,
“Hmmm, how about a steak?”
“Western food sounds good. What about you two?”
“I am in favor. You?”
“? Of course.”
They spoke quietly, but Seonghyun’s sharp hearing picked it up.
Unfortunately, his hopelessly blunt intuition could not grasp what they ant.
The older sisters led in front, and their younger siblings followed behind.
On the way, perhaps feeling awkward to walk in silence, Ahn Yubin spoke first.
“What level are you now, Seonghyun-nim? It seed like you jumped a lot last ti.”
“Ah, I am 230 now.”
“Wow.”
At her pure amazent, Seonghyun felt a little embarrassed.
Maybe he felt sorry that the backup team had little to do, so he said gently,
“It just turned out that way.”
“It is okay. We are trying to keep up as much as possible. I am 223, and the rest are almost 222.”
“Oh, that is very fast.”
The gap was about seven levels, but considering how much he had gained in Apophis, they were catching up faster than expected.
When he said that, Ahn Yubin answered shyly,
“Since we run a large team, the speed picks up. We will try to make it so you can join as well, Seonghyun-nim.”
“Thank you.”
As they chatted, the topic naturally shifted to the ga again.
Watching from behind, the older sister Yoo Mina and the older sister Ahn Yoojin thought they looked good together, but they were also a bit frustrated.
Why talk about gas with no sense of mood?
They could not really say anything, so they simply watched, and before long they arrived at the restaurant.
“Here it is.”
“This place is popular.”
“I have been here before and it was good.”
“Is that so?”
The four entered the restaurant.
It was lunchti, but luckily there was a table.
They had not reserved, so they were a little concerned.
As soon as they walked in, they drew the room’s attention at once.
Although Ahn Yoojin was on the shorter side, she was still quite pretty, and her younger sister, Ahn Yubin, had outstanding looks.
There was no need to ntion Yoo Mina and Seonghyun.
So won were about to scold their boyfriends for staring at the three, then turned their eyes to Seonghyun as well.
Once they were seated, Yoo Mina said,
“It is one dish per person here, but the portions are small, so you should order two, Seonghyun.”
“Ah, got it.”
“I will order two as well.”
“Okay. What about you, Yubin?”
“I will look and decide.”
They coordinated and ordered slightly different dishes each, planning to share if needed.
Even though it was one dish per person, it did not have to be eaten separately.
Seonghyun could not understand for a mont why they had said that if they were going to do this anyway.
n and won think differently, he told himself, and let it go.
Before the food arrived, Ahn Yoojin asked sothing light to keep the conversation going.
“So, how far along are you now, Seonghyun?”
“Ah, I hit 230 this ti.”
At his answer, Yoo Mina sputtered in disbelief.
“Yikes. You really are fast.”
“I know, right. I was surprised when I heard earlier too.”
“He’s my little brother, but really…”
She shook her head, at a loss for words.
Seonghyun narrowed his eyes at her as if to ask what she was looking at.
At this rare reaction, Ahn Yubin glanced over and let out a small laugh.
“Heh, siblings are siblings.”
“We do get along well, at least.”
“True enough.”
As they chatted a bit more, the food arrived quickly.
They kept talking as they ate, about the guild, how to handle future streams, and various pieces of information.
With so much back and forth, the al ended sooner than expected.
It had been a while since they had all t and talked, so they lost track of ti while chatting.
In the midst of it, soone asked,
“Is your team doing okay? Everyone’s so full of personality.”
Ahn Yubin sighed.
“Yes. We are managing to pull everyone together and make it work.”
They heard a bit about Team Luna.
“Reaper ca by this ti too, which was a relief. Since we are not in the server integration phase yet, we have not t in practice. You would not believe how much Kyou has been itching for it.”
At that, Seonghyun could imagine it and recalled Kyou from the Apophis run.
He certainly had a strong wild streak.
Chuckling, Ahn Yoojin said,
“Ugh, they all joined just to follow Seonghyun, so their personalities are way too strong.”
“...?”
Others aside, he had never even t Kyou properly.
What did that an?
He was about to ask when another comnt ca.
“Right. Kyou ended up joining after losing to Seonghyun-nim.”
“I heard he was cocky, but after Seonghyun taught him a proper lesson, he llowed out. That is a relief.”
“...???”
It felt like the story was running ahead without him, and he had no idea why.
Once they finished eating and were about to get up, Ahn Yoojin, sounding very much like a guild master, asked,
“Shall we move sowhere else? What do you want to do?”
Yoo Mina’s eyes sparkled.
“Do you want to go get our fortunes read?”
His sister was starting to say strange things again.
