MEMORIZE

Chapter 531 Big decision. =========================================================================

Inside the drawing room.

A woman raised a cup of white steam, her long legs neatly gathered. Soon after the pure pink lips mesh, the teacup tilts slowly.

Sipping.

“Huh?”

At the first gulp, the woman’s eyes opened slightly.

Slurp.

“Well!”

The second inhale smudged a pleased smile on his mouth. The woman looked at me with her head lifted. He smiles affectionately with his eyes, as if he is satisfied with the taste of tea.

“Wow, the taste of tea is no joke. I own a traditional teahouse in Hyundai, and it’s a taste I’ve never tasted before!”

“…….”

“I’m curious about the ingredients and who made it?”

“…….”

“…Yes, I usually enjoy the company’s eyes. But say something. It’s embarrassing to see you like that.”

“…….”

The woman humbly lifted her shoulder slightly. And then slurp the tea again. I had to feel like I was running away from home looking at that woman, or Zhugel Haesol. What the hell is going on here?

I quickly organized my thoughts. The situation itself is simple.

After receiving the correspondence of Salmun and Cho Seung-woo’s report, I went straight to the reception room where I guided the guest. And Zhugel Haesol sat calmly in the drawing room waiting for me.

Yeah, but that’s the only thing.

“What the hell are you?”

Maybe what I just said would perfectly represent my feelings.

At that time, Zhugel Haesol certainly said something similar to saying goodbye. I thought the recruitment failed, so I asked him to kill me.

It’s all over. I thought about it, but it suddenly appeared before my eyes. It sounds like he ended up in the martial arts on his own, but honestly, it was beyond my expectations. I feel like I’m a fish that’s been fished.

After a while, Zhugel Haesol’s head tilted obliquely.

“Oh, speaking informally?”

At that moment, I hit the table hard.

Soup!

“Make fun of me. User Zhuge Haesol.”

With the table shaking from place to place, Zhugel shivered. Zhugel Haesol, who soon opened his eyes wide, said in a voice of disappointment, frowning gently at Ami.

“I’m sorry if I’m angry. But I never made fun of him, and I didn’t mean to.”

“Then why does it seem to me that you want to play with me right now? User Jegal Hasol?

“I know, I’m not a student anymore. …and if you’re talking about that, I’d say it was no joke.”

“Sure.”

I was about to say what I meant, but I didn’t know what to say. Jegal Haesol was looking at me with polite eyes. As if you’re observing slowly.

Suddenly, the report of the murder crossed my mind.

‘…and be careful. I don’t think that’s a bitch. I approached him with my guard down, and I almost got caught.’

“After leaving the User’s Academy, I felt less than 20 minutes later.”

Zhugeol Haesol, who carefully laid down the teacup, naturally continued.

“Oh, what a scary world it is.”

The moment I heard that, I felt my heart throbbing. It was because Zhugel Haesol’s way of speaking was very meaningful to just listen and pass it over. Of course, I’ve done something. You little bastards. Are you sure you didn’t get caught?

Anyway, I was too excited to be needed, so I calmly took my breath. Yeah, let’s calm down. It’s out of my estimation, but I have to face it first.

Let’s pretend we don’t know.

“…First of all, I apologize for making such a reckless remark. I thought you were making fun of me. Anyway, there are definitely some people who are after fresh chicks. All right, I understand that.”

“Yeah.”

“But then why did you come to our Clan?”

“What? What do you mean?”

“If you feel that way, isn’t it right to go to Istanbul Low to explain the situation and ask for protection? That’s the only clan I was trying to recruit.”

“Hmm?”

For a moment, there was a still silence.

Soon after, Zhugeol, who was staring at me, asked in a mysterious voice.

“How did you know that…Anyway, so what?”

“……?”

“I’m sure it could be dangerous on your own. I did feel it. So I have to find a place to trust my body, but I just chose a shopping mall. Is that such a strange thing to do?”

“No. So why.”

“From the perspective of Zhugel Haesol, who just came out of Hall Plain. They put a higher value on the machine than on Istanbul Low. Of course, it’s a very personal idea.”

“…….”

I shut up again. This is because there is nothing to find fault with.

“Well, there’s nothing fascinating about the speech I heard at the ceremony. No. Actually, that’s the biggest. There’s a big difference here. When I heard that, I was suddenly distracted.”

Zhugel Haesol poked out his tongue and smiled and drank tea. I tapped the table quietly.

“So, I’m going to eventually join our mechanical clan. You mean this?”

“Yes, I’m also going to take a sign-up test if necessary.”

Zhugel Haesol, who moved Mokwooldae, replied in a clear voice.

I was still lost in thought.

*

I see. So you’re still treating me as a guest?)

Late in the afternoon, the red sunset coming through the window was turning the desk in the Oval red. On the desk, a small crystal ball is emitting bright light. I spoke with my face closer to the reflection of the crystal ball.

“That’s right. It’s a bit uncomfortable to just accept it. I can’t read the insides. I don’t know what the hell you’re thinking.”

(Hmm. It’s uncomfortable…).)

“Why?”

It’s just, it’s a little weird.

“You too, don’t you?”

(No, no, no. I’m not saying the Zhugel Haesol user is weird, I’m saying you’re weird.)

At that, I stared blankly at the crystal ball.

My brother raised his head as if he was lost in thought for a moment, and soon smiled blandly.

(Su-hyun, let me just tell you the truth.) I think you’re being too sensitive.)

“No, it’s not that I don’t want to accept it, it’s definitely….”

(or whatever.) It’s true that you’re still hesitating. Don’t rationalize yourself in a way that’s good for you. It’s a really bad habit.)

“…….”

(You still don’t seem to understand.) Okay, let me ask you a question. Aside from the fact that you and the enemy were in the first round, was Zhugel Haesol a strange user? Enough to make you feel so reluctant? For example, betraying Clan Lord.)

“…No.”

I replied to the truth. Far from betrayal, Zhugeol was the one who resisted numerous offers of recruitment and protected Yoo Hyun-ah’s side.

So what, you’re notorious? I’ve done cruel things that I can’t do as a human being, and so on.

It wasn’t either. I shook my head slowly.

So you’re saying you’re a user with no flaws?)

“That’s true.”

That’s not the case. After all, it’s that. You’re afraid of the user Zhugel Haesol.)

“…fearful? Did I?

(Yeah, Zhugel Hasol, who had the best potential for the first round. And the many achievements you have now. The Zhugel Haesol, which will be formed by combining the two elements, is a monster. In other words, you were afraid to raise a user that you couldn’t control with your own hands. No?

“It’s….”

I wanted to say no, but my brother’s words hit the nail on the head.

To be honest, I feel tight. I don’t even understand why you’re thinking like that. Think about it like this. There’s a solid road ahead of you. And there’s a user who wants to walk down the road with you. Then you just have to go. Yeah, that’s all you have to do, walk one step, look around, knock on the floor, search the body of the person you’re going with. And then we take another step and repeat the process again.

“…….”

(So what would the person you’re going with think about you? Huh? We can walk happily holding hands at least once.)

“Brother.”

I’m sure you’re right, but why do I feel so sad all of a sudden? So he barely opened his mouth, but his brother shook his head quickly. As if to listen to me a little more.

(Suhyun, I know how you feel.) When I chose to come back from the first car to the second car. When I think about how you came back then, I think I know a little bit why you’re acting like that. But knowing is clearly different from being right.

When I heard his strict brother’s voice, I suddenly felt a strange sense of deja vu. But even before I realized the identity of the sense of deja vu, my brother’s face came even larger.

(Now it’s two, not one. …I won’t say anything else. But I want you to know this one thing. As much as you believe in me and as much as I believe in you. At least, I want you to trust someone else for once.

Belief.

*

After communicating with my brother, I slowly closed my eyes and buried myself deep in the chair. And deep in thought.

‘Oh, what a scary world this is.’

“We can hold hands and walk happily together at least once.”‘

‘…that’s why I chose the martial arts. Is that such a weird thing to do?’

‘As much as you believe in me, as much as I believe in you.’

How long has it been?

As the dusk slowly blends in with the red light that colored the desk.

I opened my eyes wide and raised my upper body vigorously. Then he opened the drawer and looked down at the neatly arranged paging stones.

Maybe what I’m going to do now. After the second round, I may be completely denying the path I’ve taken so far.

But if it’s not, or if I’m wrong.

As my brother said, I think it would be good to give it a try. Even if this is the biggest gamble of my Hallplane life.

Thinking that way, I pressed the paging stone without hesitation, and immediately ordered Sun Yoo-woon, who came in, to bring Zhugel Haesol, who was waiting in the room.

And less than three minutes later, I could see Zhugel walking in gently.

“Did you call me?”

I threw three records without saying a word. The record flew in a straight line, and Zhugel Haesol skillfully captured the records.

“This is….”

“One is an application for entry into the Military Clan, and the other is a free mercenary change application. I’ll have a meeting tomorrow morning, so you can turn it in then.”

“Oh? What about the other one?”

“This is an application to register as a mercenary academy trainee. It’s just a formality, but you’d better fill it out.”

At that moment, Zhugel Haesol, who gently raised his eyes, stares at me.

In fact, there are many things I want to say. But pressing it all down, I calmly reached out.

Zhugel Haesol opened his mouth.

“Sure.”

“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting so long. …It’s late at night, so you can go now. I’ll order you to arrange accommodation right now, so please make yourself at home.”

“Yes, yes?”

“Welcome to the Mechanical.”

It was only for a short time, but Zhugeol’s eyes shook a little when he looked at me.

But it was, literally, a very brief moment.

Soon Zhugel’s white hand grabs my wrist. Then follow my hand, and sweep your hand down strongly. Soft friction on the palm of your hand.

What does this mean? A new way to shake hands?

As soon as he raises his eyes, he disappears out of the door….

No. Zhugel Haesol’s steps as he was leaving the door suddenly stopped. Then, he pointed out his head and winked at one eye. At the same time, lift up the palm of your hand that you swept down earlier and kiss it so that it sounds like you’re sipping.

“Thank you! Thank you.”

And even blowing “hoo!” at me. I think I’ve seen something somewhere.

Soon I felt Zhugel Haesol’s move away quickly, and I looked up at the ceiling with a deep sigh.

Somehow I feel weak all over. It wasn’t even a fierce battle, but it felt like I was it? I just want to sleep like this.

It was then.

Hey.

A sudden voice from the inside.

I was about to close my eyes, but I was surprised. This voice….

“Madam?”

Whoo. In the meantime, I…You’re such a jerk!

And at that moment.

Boom!

In front of my eyes, a spark flashed.

============================ Review of the work ============================

I’m sorry I’m late. _(__)_

Actually, it’s weird that I’m stuck today. If there’s a traffic jam, there’s a lot of traffic, but today, there’s a traffic jam from beginning to the end. It really feels like I squeezed it out. I shouldn’t do this. OTL.

Anyway, I’ll work harder to write from tomorrow.

It’s late at night. We ask for your deep understanding and hope you have a comfortable night. 🙂
