[ (side story) Who is going to the meeting? ]
WH (White House), a universal group with the most powerful influence in the dimensional hub.
WH Group’s office complex was located in the center of Seoul, which is famous for having the most expensive land on Earth.
[ WH town ]
The most symbolic building is located here, where the core affiliates of the WH Group are gathered.
This is the Superhuman Guild headquarters in Building C.
“Phew…”
On the top floor of a distantly tall skyscraper, two men sighed softly as they looked down at the night view outside the window.
Their shoulders looked particularly heavy, and there was a deep look between their eyebrows.
“That day always comes back.”
“Time flies… so fast.”
The two men with extremely lonely expressions were heroes who were part of the final death squad of the legendary Demon World War.
“…Minjae hyung.”
“…It’s a relief.”
WH-7 team leader Wang Gu-ho, who is called a living legend, and deputy team leader Kim Min-jae looked at each other and sighed deeply.
“I’m so lonely….”
“…I can’t believe it’s Christmas already.”
we wish you a merry Christmas~♬
we wish you a merry Christmas~♬
Christmas carols were echoing throughout WH Town. The city, a diverse mixture of otherworldly architectural styles, sparkled with colorful lights.
christmas.
The day has come when just five letters make me feel uneasy and I can’t seem to get anything done.
“Damn….”
“Ugh….”
The whole city was in a festive mood.
Couples who came out to enjoy the Christmas atmosphere held hands or linked arms, laughing and chatting as if they didn’t even feel the cold.
However, the two big boys who could not blend in with the happy scene were venting their anger.
“Why does everyone look so happy? We are so lonely and lonely…”
“Die! All couples die! “I didn’t risk my life to save the Earth for this!”
The sight of two large men shaking and being jealous of the couple was almost obscene.
What would you do if you were revered as a hero who saved the world?
Even this Christmas, their sides are so cold.
“Look at that! Is it okay to bite and suck like that on the street? “And under the statue of the death squad!”
An excited Minjae pointed with his finger to a spot visible under the window.
At the place his trembling finger pointed to, a couple resembling cockroaches was writhing in the shadows beneath the statue, creating a warm atmosphere.
“That’s a bit…”
“Gulp.”
Two superhumans with eyesight that surpassed human limits were already clinging to the glass window, snoring.
“Oh wow, that’s a bit…”
“I’m jealous…”
The two men swallowed their saliva while looking at the couple with their faces pressed against the window.
Wang Guho suddenly felt miserable about their situation and sighed.
“I can’t do that. I need to ask Wendy to lower the temperature in this area by about 20 degrees. Only then will those cockroaches disappear…”
Minjae shook his head with an indignant expression.
“I don’t think that’s a very good idea. If it’s cold, won’t everyone go to the motel early? And it will create new cockroaches…”
“…Damn it!”
-Quaang!
Wang Guho’s fist left a large mark on the wall.
“This is the first time I’ve felt this helpless since fighting the demon lords!”
Fortunately, the only people who could see their plight were each other.
In fact, it wasn’t that no women had approached them until now.
As they were heroes who saved the world from demon lords, naturally beauties from all walks of life showed interest in the two men.
However, most of them were women who were aiming for fame, power, wealth, or had a specific purpose.
Having been burned by such women several times, only scars remained in the hearts of the two men, who were as big as cattle thieves but had delicate sensibilities.
Moreover, both of us were so busy that 24 hours a day wasn’t enough, so we didn’t have time to have a proper relationship…
Let’s leave it at that because honestly, it’s just an excuse.
Whatever the situation is, he does whatever he wants to do.
“I just can’t do it. “Christmas is coming, but two men can’t just sit around shaking!”
“Then what should I do?”
Minjae shouted as if he had come up with some great plan.
“Let’s throw a party ourselves!”
“…are we?”
Wang Guhu sighed with a despairing expression.
To put it bluntly, if they throw a party, people will be lining up to come.
But won’t that mean only people who aim for money or power will come like before?
Minjae grinned as if he had expected that reaction.
“Not that kind of party. Invite only close people and have fun. “I invited you too!”
“Team leader?”
To the two men, there was only one person in the universe who called them brother and team leader.
Landlord.
A man who sacrificed his life to save dozens of dimensions from the threat of demon lords.
A hero who went beyond legend and became a myth.
A name that will occupy the most important page in the soon-to-be new space history textbook.
November 1st, when Daein is officially known to have died, is called ‘Daeinjeol (大人節)’ and a grand festival is held, and hundreds of thousands of people make a pilgrimage to the 2,137 meter tall statue located above Seoul every month.
“But will the team leader want to come?”
“I don’t have anything special to do these days anyway. “They must be developing a new menu that would make even Satan cry.”
“But what fun is it with three men getting together…”
“Tsk tsk. “A guy who can only think of one thing.”
Minjae continued speaking with a smile like an extra villain leaving after only one episode.
“Of course, I should invite my brother’s network as well. “The princess of Gaia Continent, the young lady of the royal family Namgung, and manager Yeonghee… If I tell you this, do you understand what we have in common?”
“…Women who have a crush on the team leader?”
“That’s right. Of course, that is not our goal.”
Minjae never even dreamed of romance with them. His aim was different.
“What we’re aiming for is the seat next to that! “I’m asking them to bring at least one close friend each!”
“no way…!”
“okay. “There are bound to be pretty kids around pretty kids.”
If only they brought one pretty friend to the party…
The two men’s eyes sparkled with pink delusion.
Wang Guhao asked with an expression of admiration.
“Hyung, are you a genius?”
“Contact your brother quickly. “I’m going to do it to Lily.”
“Lily too?”
“You stupid bastard. “If we only invite you, our intentions will be questioned!”
“yes!”
Wang Guho sent a message to Daein and Minjae sent a message to Lily.
-It’s Lily. Would you like to come to my office for a moment after school?
Guho Wang and Jae Min were also professors at WHA, but today was a day without classes.
‘…There’s no way you’ll have a girlfriend since you two are like this on your long-awaited day off without class.’
It was when Minjae realized the truth he wanted to ignore.
-Jeeeeee!
Instead of replying, Lily opened the gate in front of the two and walked out.
“It’s break time now. What’s going on?”
Lily was wearing WHA’s uniform.
The top is a white blouse and the bottom is a checkered skirt in red and black.
The WHA school logo was engraved in red and gold thread on the chest of the luxurious-looking navy blue blazer.
‘It’s a model. ‘I’m a model.’
Minjae quietly admired the appearance of a teenage model in a magazine advertisement and said,
“We’re having a Christmas party this weekend, right? Brother and Lily, do you want to come too? And if I have close friends, I invite them too…”
Minjae said with sparkling eyes. But Lily answered with a troubled expression.
“I was planning to get together with Wendy, Anna, Youngshin, and Shin on the weekend and hang out.”
“…ah. okay…?”
“sorry! “Hogu and Sirutteok will play together next time!”
Lily looked truly sorry, which hurt both men even more.
‘You’re playing with us…’
‘Do you think we look so pitiful…’
Lily waved her hand at the two, saying that break time would soon end.
“I’ll definitely play with you next time!”
Although it was an unpleasant surprise for Lily, the two men were not disappointed yet.
“Honestly, it’s okay if Lily doesn’t come. “If only you say you’re coming, other people will come too.”
“that’s right. “If only the team leader said he would come… Oh, I got a reply!”
Wang Guho checked the New message that appeared on the smartphone screen with excitement.
And after a while, his face became mesmerized.
“Minjae hyung….”
“Why? What? “Is it true that your brother didn’t do it too?”
“That’s not important now. The team leader… The team leader is now…!”
Wang Guho’s expression was unusual. At the same time, Minjae’s expression became serious.
“What on earth is going on? “You’re not hurt anywhere, are you?”
“They say it didn’t work because….”
“what? Why can’t I do that? “Tell me more!”
Wang Guho barely answered with a cracked voice like a defeated soldier.
“…They said it couldn’t be done because of a meeting.”
Minjae tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand.
“Meeting? “The unemployed man is having some kind of meeting… Oh, he’s a space sheriff or something, so he’s busy with that?”
“It’s not that kind of meeting!”
Wang Guhu said, pounding his chest in frustration.
“Many, many men and women meet, eat, drink, talk haha, and when they make eye contact, they go out separately… Hey! Anyway, that kind of meeting!”
“what. la. go…?”
Minjae’s eyes shook uneasily, as if there had been an earthquake.
In some ways it was even worse than the worst thing he could imagine that could happen to a person.
“This… traitor! To spend a warm Christmas alone…! “How can you do that!”
“I’m really shocked. How could it be the team leader who is not someone else… I honestly thought he was a eunuch…” “
So what number do you say?” Who are you doing it with? “I heard there are no seats left?”
“I’ll ask you now.”
Crash!
Wang Guho’s hand sending the message was barely visible.
The two people soon got over the initial shock and became immersed in this exciting event.
‘The team leader is meeting a woman…’
‘What kind of wind suddenly blows in a person who doesn’t care about the many beauties around him?’
After a while, Wang Guho exchanged messages with Daein and shared the information he found out with Minjae.
“Meeting members are Master Cheonma, Senior Swordsman, Senior Sinchang…”
“Awesome! “Who is the opponent?”
“They say they are the High Elves of the continent of Gaia…”
“I’m dying of envy… No, but why is your brother one of those members?
“Wait.”
After that, Wang Guho, who continued chatting with Daein, paused for a moment and looked back at Minjae.
“But this is absolutely a secret from other people. Especially…”
“What in particular?”
““Hi!!””
The two men froze at the soft voice that came from the door.
Squeak Geek….
Two thick necks that rotate slowly like a broken machine.
At the end of their gaze, Baek Young-hee stood smiling, holding a large gift bag in each hand.
“Yeo Young-hee.”
“Since when has it been there….”
The corners of Baek Young-hee’s mouth slowly formed a half-moon.
But the eyes were not smiling at all.
“I thought the two of you were going through a difficult situation again, so I bought you a Christmas present to take care of me too. I even used the latest cloaking equipment to surprise you…”
Ttogakttogak.
The two men heard the sound of her shoes walking toward them as if it was cutting into their hearts.
“right. kite. he. I heard a very interesting story. “Who is leaving the meeting?”
“Gulp…”
Wang Guho and Minjae closed their mouths as if they were dumb. They awkwardly turned away from Baek Young-hee’s gaze.
‘You probably didn’t hear everything.’
‘I can’t betray my team leader…’
Tuk.
Baek Young-hee, who laid down the Christmas presents in front of them, smiled brightly.
“Don’t even think about closing your mouth. “I heard about it because many men and women met.”
“Oh, that’s it…”
The two looked back and forth – but glanced at their gifts – but Baek Young-hee just looked at them with her arms crossed and a soft smile.
“You guys. Do you want to get kicked out of the office in the middle of winter?”
““No…””
In the end, the two men had no choice but to confess everything they knew.
