Chapter 57
Chapter 57
Considering Rachels madness at the last moment, it wouldnt be strange if she suddenly appeared in front of Yu-Seong right away. However, it seemed that the World Player Association was so formidable that, even after she ran away, she had not appeared even after fifteen days had passed.
Well, thats why even the Demon King Worshiper cant come out into the open recklessly.
Blessed by the rather fortunate situation, Yu-Seong then asked the most curious question, What happened to Kim Do-Jin?
In fact, since Do-Jin was the main character with so many stunning abilities, Yu-Seong didnt think he would have died unless he had been very unlucky. Moreover, his opponent hadnt been the Slaughterer Queen, who Yu-Seong had personally faced.
Hes also hospitalized with injuries.
Injury? Is he seriously injured?
Yu-Ris expression slightly hardened at Yu-Seongs rather serious question. She replied, Yu-Seong oppa, personally Im very anxious about the relationship between you two. You guys are getting closer.
I know.
You say that, but why
Because its necessary, Yu-Seong answered briefly and looked at Yu-Ri.
What is it that you are hiding? asked Yu-Ri.
I can explain that tomorrow. Its fine.
Having met Ji-Ho, Yu-Seong was already aware of his own future. He would be able to tell Yu-Ri a convincing story without having to lie.
First of all, tell me how Kim Do-Jins condition is. How is the injury?
There was a lot of bleeding, but he was in a much better condition than you, young master. He was in the next room just a few days ago But he has been discharged, explained Do-Yoon. He didn't appear to be satisfied either.
Yu-Seong nodded while sighing in relief.
Good.
Everything was alright. This event had been greatly threatening, but it didn't change the overall flow of events. Yu-Seong felt completely relieved. At that moment, the fatigue that he had momentarily forgotten when he woke up from the dream rushed back to him.
Hmm Im definitely not in good shape yet.
The two siblings smiled at Yu-Seongs words and nodded.
Rest well, oppa. No matter what, recovery comes first.
We will be by your side. No one can bother you, young master, from now on
Hearing the words of Yu-Ri and Do-Yoon, Yu-Seong lightly smiled and slowly closed his eyes. Although they had recently been unable to use their power due to various serious situations, as always, they were the two people he trusted the most.
As expected Theyre reliable.
Yu-Seong closed his eyes. And when he opened his eyes again, he was greeted by a completely unexpected guest.
Why are you looking at me like that? If you have opened your eyes, speak up, a woman with long black hair, a rather tall stature, and a sharp cat-like figure said coldly.
It was Yu-Seongs first time seeing her, but he didnt find the meeting awkward or uncomfortable.
Is it a dream again?
However, Yu-Seong felt like this moment was too realistic and vivid to be a dream.
You cant even recognize your noo-nim anymore? Mi-Na asked sharply.
Yu-Sungs mind immediately cleared, no longer feeling hazy.
Choi Mi-Na came to see me? Why?
This was totally unexpected. Yu-Seong tried to calmly understand the current situation.
Jin Do-Yoon and Jin Yu-Ri are
When his eyes swept the surroundings, Mi-Nawho was sitting with a crossed leggrinned as if she had been waiting for this moment. She said, I kicked out the two puppies you raised. cause I was uncomfortable.
They just accepted that?
What if they dont accept it? Mi-Na clenched her fist and shook it in front of Yu-Seong. Well, she had always been reckless.
Yu-Seong couldnt help but click his tongue.
But those two are already upset enough about not being strong these days
Choi Mi-Na had properly touched their reverse scales. In the future, it would be difficult for Jin siblings and her to get along well in many ways.
Its not time to worry about useless things. Are you not curious why I am here?
Its not that I cant guess at all, Yu-Seong said with a serious look.
Oho, let me hear that. Mi-Na nodded with a somewhat dissatisfied look. She would seemingly snap off one of Yu-Seong's arms if he misspoke, regardless of his current injuries.
Wiping a drop of cold sweat from his temple, Yu-Seong revealed a slightly awkward smile. Didnt you get a request from Ji-Ho hyung-nim?
I dont know what you did to Choi Ji-Ho, but he told me something weird. But that wasnt enough to make me come and find you, obviously.
Itll be at least the basis of it. I agree that it's not enough. I am guessing that it would simply be just enough reason for you to not refuse when father asked you to visit me.
Ji-Ho had requested Mi-Na to protect Yu-Seong, but that didnt mean she had to show her face in front of Yu-Seong. If she ran just wild enough so that the other siblings in the family had no time to care about Yu-Seong, Ji-Hos worries would naturally disappear without her directly helping Yu-Seong.
Thus, Yu-Seong felt confused at first because Mi-Na was here visiting him. However, when the name Choi Woo-Jae was mentioned, the entire puzzle took form in front of him.
Because he came to visit even when I was hurt before.
This meant that the cold-blooded Woo-Jae also cared about his children getting injured. Perhaps Woo-Jae himself had already come to see Yu-Seong when he was unconscious.
Despite it being just a simple logical assumption, Mi-Na looked quite surprised after Yu-Seong spoke. She muttered to herself, I thought he was just lucky, but
Mi-Na revealed a smile that was somewhat different from before. Perhaps she was thinking about what made Yu-Seong survive from Rachel. Of course, Yu-Seong should act like he didnt know about that.
Whos in front of me right now is not Myo of the Special Police Forces but the second child of the Comet Group family, Choi Mi-Na.
Mi-Na did not want to let anyone in the house know that she was working in the Special Police Force. This was only natural. If Choi Woo-Jae found out about this, Mi-Na must immediately stop her Special Police Force activities. Perhaps the organization called Special Police Force itself may disappear from this country. It would be reborn as a similar organization with a different name, but Choi Woo-Jaes eyes and ears would already have infiltrated then.
Mi-Na did not even care about small controversies, but she hated not being able to do what she wanted. That was a similarity both Kim Do-Jin and Choi Mi-Na shared.
They have to do what they want to do, and they hate losing even if they could die.
To put it simply, they had strong self-esteem and a sense of independence. Mi-Na probably wouldnt want to reveal secrets or even talk related to them.
Hey, I heard you survived after meeting the Slaughterer Queen? Mi-Na voiced her thoughts.
Well, by now, this particular topic wasnt suspicious to talk about. Slaughterer Queen was probably the hottest keyword in the world right now.
I was lucky.
Of course, it was luck. But there's a saying in the world that luck is also a skill.
You know, but I hate Villains very much. In particular, indiscriminate killers such as Slaughterer Queen are even more hateful.
Choi Mi-Na wasnt exactly right. There were actually some fairly convincing principles in Rachels murder, which seemed reckless when reading the original novel, [Modern Master Returns]. However, Yu-Seong nodded unconditionally.
Its hard to see good things if touched her feelings for nothing.
Come to think of it, there were also several narratives in the original novel that Mi-Na was chasing Rachel. As a result, there was no win or lose between the two.
Maybe they were in a deeper relationship than I thought.
Yu-Seong did not think deeply about the later matters. It was dangerous if his thoughts continued and led to a tongue slip. As soon as Mi-Na realized that Yu-Seong knew that she was active in the Special Police Force, she would try to shut his mouth regardless of means and methods.
Since we dont have time, let me ask you two short questions. Did you have a secret plan that would help you survive the Slaughter queen?
That could be a possibility. Yu-Seong could not stop himself from gaining some level of validation.
Mi-Nas line of questioning was completely logical. Yu-Seong, who was only an E-rank hunter, had survived a meeting with the Slaughterer Queen, who was the S-rank Villain who belonged to Demon King Worshiper and was now designated as a Disturbance grade. In a way, it was understandable for someone like Mi-Na to think that Yu-Seongs survival was due to mere luck. And in fact, Mi-Nas words were not wrong.
Because I seduced Rachel with money.
However, what Mi-Na suspected was one step ahead of that.
Noo-nim, you think that I might have joined the Demon King Worshiper, right?
"It's not impossible, Mi-Na stated with a shrug.
Yu-Seongs aura felt rather threatening. He asked, Then let me explain it like this. Lets say I belong to Demon King Worshiper. How long do you think itll last?
What?
Its unknown whether I can fool noo-nim and other siblings eyes, but have you forgotten who is above my head?
Yu-Seong did not necessarily ask for trust and faith in himself. It would be great if he could persuade Mi-Na who was full of suspicion in such a way, but he knew that it would not work. So, he brought up Choi Woo-Jae instead.
It wont last a month at the longest. There are only a handful of people in Korea who can fool Fathers eyes. Its no exaggeration to even say that its impossible among our siblings.
Before she could speak anymore, Mi-Na frowned and became lost in thought.
She would have to accept it. If she refutes and says she is doing a good job fooling him, shell be the one in trouble.
This was also Yu-Seongs intention. Saying that it might be possible to deceive Woo-Jae wouldnt be favorable for Mi-Na herself. Yu-Seongs excuse might not have worked if she was stupid, but fortunately, Mi-Na was quite clever.
Mi-Nas intelligence was not emphasized much in the original novel because it focused on the main character Kim Do-Jin. However, if the reader observed closely, they would see that Mi-Na also was quite smart. For example, her eccentricities and recklessness that others would not understand looked absurd, but the results alone always were favorable for herself.
Was this just a simple realm of luck? Yu-Seong thought it was not. And with Choi Mi-Nas subsequent agreement, his belief was only reaffirmed.
Impossible You're right. Okay. Ill trust Father, not you, answered Mi-Na with a slight smile.
Yu-Seong smiled back, but he didnt let his guard down since Mi-Na still had one more question left.
Okay then, the second question. You, why have you been hiding yourself all this time?"
