Childhood Friend Who Sees the Future Utters Nonsense

61 – Towards the stage

In the end, with half a heart on each other’s faces, we had to head to the auditorium where the E-sports competition would take place.

As I sat comfortably between the rows of chairs, the large screen above the podium showed the ban picks of other teams that had made it to the finals, just like Choi Min-seong’s team.

The preliminaries are held separately before the festival begins, and only the finals are broadcast live at the festival, so the runner-up can already be considered confirmed.

Of course, Choi Min-seong and Kim Soo-bin are not great players who can be satisfied with a runner-up finish, so they may be paying close attention and focusing on their ban picks by now.

“Oh, did you come up with a good combination?”

“Did you make it well? “I can’t tell.”

After the ban picks were over and she felt like she had already won, a soft exclamation came out of her mouth, and Han Yuna tilted her head.

I have played Rega often since I went to the PC room together last time, but since I still lack knowledge about the game, it would be difficult to know the pros and cons even if I look at the ban picks.

“It’s okay because I can counter the opponent’s combination at that level. Kim Soobin also brought a scam pick.”

“Is Soobin’s character Sagi?”

“Uh, it was originally appropriate, but it got a lot better after receiving the buff this time. If you do well, will you be able to become Kim Soobin’s solo carry?”

To be honest, it’s a bit difficult to call it a fraud pick because it takes a lot of work as a pilot, but on the other hand, it’s also a character that shows gratuitous fraud if you give it a hand. Her carry power is also amazing.

The person holding it is a former Challenger mid laner, wow. I guess I should pray for the opposing team to rest in peace.

“Do you like women who are good at games?”

“All of a sudden?”

While I was watching the early line battle that had just begun, Han Yuna next to me suddenly asked a question. It was so unexpected that she was momentarily dazed.

In general, there are cases where men choose a woman who plays games with them as their ideal type, but isn’t it rare for men to want a ‘woman who is good at games’? To begin with, the former is also a rare species, but the latter is literally an imaginary being.

“Not really. “If you do too well in the first place, it might be a bit burdensome, right?”

“Why? “Wouldn’t it be cool if I carried you?”

Oh, Hanyu, seeing as I’m now using the word ‘carry’, it seems like she’s somewhat tinged with legga. Well, it is a word that is used quite often in everyday life these days.

Anyway, what Yuna Han said is not wrong, but I think it would be better for me to be someone who just laughs and chats together rather than someone who is good at games.

To begin with, my skills aren’t that great, and I’m a little worried that if I play with someone who’s really good at it, I’ll look inferior in comparison. That person is even my girlfriend? Sigh, I feel like I’m going to feel ashamed.

“Wouldn’t a man rather want to take the bus himself? “There is a desire to show a cool side, even in games.”

“I see…. “You’re saying that it’s not necessarily better to do well, right?”

“I think so. Well, I guess being good at something is attractive in its own way.”

I was just expressing my opinion, but Hanyu Na shook her head in a somewhat serious manner and showed that she had come to enlightenment.

Now that I think about it, she said in her tarot reading that she also has someone she likes. She doesn’t know who it is, but when she asks these questions, she realizes that he, too, is interested in a relationship.

Han Yuna is in love. I think it would be really emotional to hear such news.

If you ask me if I can be happy about it as if it were my own….

“Ugh, why?”

“… Just, is it delicious?”

While continuing her thoughts, she smiled bitterly at the sight of Han Yuna munching on the popcorn that was being distributed at the entrance of the auditorium and erased her thoughts.

“Yes, do you want to give it to me too?”

“I’m done.”

“It’s salty and delicious.”

As if she was disappointed that she couldn’t share the taste of popcorn, Han Yuna pouted her lips and moved her hand while holding the popcorn container like a cushion.

I’ve been controlling my diet for a while now, but I’ve only released the seal for today, and I want to let him eat as much as possible. Anyway, I pick up a lot of things and eat them so I don’t get tempted by anything else.

– First Blood.

“Waaa!”

As I watched the game on the screen again, I soon heard the news of the first kill along with a comment from the announcer in the game.

It was none other than Soobin Kim who got a solo kill on the opponent’s laner in mid. Also, the students who were sitting there as commentators raised their voices with excitement as they moved the characters around and killed them in a flashy manner so that the opponent could not predict it.

– Ah, Puble! Subin Kim won over Minsu Lee! It was almost like a mad movie!?

– That’s right! This is the dignity of the former Challenger mid laner!

Since they were not professional commentators but students who only played the game, it was a bit funny that there was no comment during the ban picks or game progress, but their voices rose as soon as a kill was made.

“Wow, Kim Soobin is crazy.”

As I muttered to myself without being able to keep my mouth shut while watching Kim Soo-bin’s play, which was difficult for me to follow with my eyes, I felt strong gazes from next to me.

When I turned her head, I saw Han Yuna looking at me with a somewhat disapproving expression even though her friend was active.

“Why is your reaction so lukewarm? “I’m just going to support Kim Soo-bin.”

“Well, Subin’s team is going to win anyway because Subin is good. “There’s no need to cheer, right?”

“Well, that’s true, but….”

To be honest, it is not wrong to say that Kim Soo-bin’s presence alone is at the level of a breakdown in balance. But when she said it to none other than Han Yuna, her sense of estrangement was no joke.

If it were the Hanyu I know, I would have thought she would have screamed in this scene and said, ‘Did you see what Soobin did!?’ And made all kinds of misguided remarks. Moreover, she said that she didn’t know the outcome until the end, and her voice burst out in laughter, so she only knew how to cheer.

“Chii, I can do that too….”

Soon, when Han Yuna’s muttering to herself with a pouting expression penetrated my ears, I burst out laughing without realizing it.

To put it bluntly, Kim Soo-bin’s play was not at a level that Han Yu-na, who had never played that character before, and who was still only Lerin.

Nevertheless, she thought it was very cute to see a boy who was so determined and confident that he could do it like a child, perhaps because of where the competitive spirit came from.

The reason she inadvertently placed her hand on Hanyuna’s head must have come from her sentiment.

“Honestly, it’s worse than the mad movie you shot with Region before. “It was even 1 to 2.”

“Yeah, right? Heh, you know something!”

When I stepped forward to protect her, Hanyu quickly raised her eyebrows and raised her eyebrows with her confident expression.

In the past, I would have regretted seeing her like this and wondering if she had given me a ride on the plane for no reason, but now I actually liked it even more.

To be more honest, the fact that Han Yuna is smiling might be a good thing. When I thought about that, I thought I was going crazy too.

***

The Esports competition ended successfully with the team name ‘Kim Soo-bin and Boys’ winning with a 3-0 shutout. The awards ceremony is scheduled to be held later after all festival performances are over.

“Did everyone see it? “Is this guy doing a hard carry in the second set?”

Choi Min-seong, who returned from the game to watch the soon-to-be-started stage, was proud and told of his performance as if it were a heroic story.

“What is hard carry? “Didn’t Mid-Jungle dive on a fake day and raise them all?”

“Honestly, I think Subin does everything….”

When Han Yuna and I actually heard that, our reaction was extremely cold.

Wow, that’s called hard carry. Do you have a conscience? It was just like living in the mid jungle at the bottom. If I were the opponent’s bottom, I would just unplug the keyboard and leave on the spot.

“Hey, Minseong worked hard too. “I almost always win lane battles.”

“So, 3 sets…. Eup-eup.”

In response to the tearful shield of Kim Soo-bin, who stood by my side and said that he was a colleague who had suffered together with me, I pretended to cover my mouth with my hand and tried to hold back from talking.

I still vividly remember almost losing the game due to a bottom blow in the 3rd set, but this is a shield, Mother Teresa.

– Soon, Sunilje’s talent show stage will begin. All students please take their seats….

While he was arguing with Choi Min-seong, the student council president’s comment, who came up to the stage holding the microphone, rang out through the speakers.

Paat.

At the same time, all the lights that were brightly illuminating the inside of the auditorium were turned off, and only the lights around the stage illuminated the surroundings in a moody manner.

“It seems to be starting slowly. “Can’t you both go yet?”

“I have to go. People participating on stage are told to come as soon as the lights go out.”

Before coming to the auditorium, I stopped by the classroom and got up from my seat, carrying the guitar case I had brought with me in advance. Han Yuna also poured the rest of her popcorn into her mouth and followed suit, lifting her up.

“This time, we will cheer you on hard. Ta-da, we made cheering pickets too?”

“Kim Soobin said he stayed up last night making this, kick.”

I was curious as to what the big paper bag in my hand was, but the cheering pickets sticking out of it made my head hurt.

Milky-colored Han Yuna’s comment was somewhat expected, but even so, what on earth is Park Si-yoon with the honey voice? The moment I see that cheering picket, I feel like my hands and feet will disappear and I won’t be able to play the guitar.

“Thank you, Subin. “I’ll do well!”

“Yes, do well.”

Meanwhile, Hanyu must have liked that shocking cheering picket, so she smiled brightly, held my hand, and moved to the back of the stage.

When we got there, we saw several kids who were participating in the talent show, just like us, gathering busily.

Hold.

“…… ?”

I was thinking to hurry up and join the group, but I felt something pulling me. In this situation, there would be no suspect other than Han Yuna to begin with.

When Hanyu looked down at me with her questioning eyes, wondering if she was going to go to the bathroom, the guy who was holding my hand and glancing at me opened his mouth.

“Park Si-yoon.”

“Why?”

“Are you going to see my performance?”

“Then you won’t watch it? “I’m the one who comes first anyway.”

As a result of a random draw to determine the order, I was selected as the second performer out of a total of 10 stages, and Han Yuna was selected as the tenth performer.

This means that I can come down after finishing the stage, join the other kids early, and watch Han Yuna’s performance from the stands. But why are you asking this again?

“Yes, be sure to watch. Do you know that if you look away even for a moment, you will die?”

“I’m scared to death, did you prepare so hard?”

“Of course. That’s right….”

“Really?”

Are you saying this is to win over me and win the right to be a slave? Hanyu, who could hardly continue her conversation, tilted her head to look at me, and a strange look appeared in her eyes as she looked up at me.

“… “Because it’s the most important day of my life.”

“Is it that much?”

“Yes.”

I was wondering why she would come out so sincerely on stage at a school festival, but the moment I caught a glimpse of the resolute will in Han Yuna’s eyes, any thoughts of questioning disappeared.

Yes, you will know everything when you watch Yuna Han’s performance.

And even if there was no such request, I planned to keep my eyes on him for even a moment from beginning to end.

In the first place, in all the time she has been with him, she has never once been able to take her eyes off this guy.
