< A fan club? (2) >
‘My fans?’
Sang-woo was embarrassed.
The fact that he is not a celebrity, but he has fans.
But the people in front of me were the stark reality.
‘I should pretend to know.’
Originally, he planned to leave the training center by putting his alter ego #20 right into the subspace.
But in a situation where there are fans in front of you, you can’t turn away.
Sang-woo approached the place where the fans were.
Then,
“Wow- he’s so fucking handsome!”
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! oppaaaa!!!”
“Please shake my hand just once! brother!”
“Jung Sang-woo is discharged from the hospital today. Please tell us what you think!”
In an instant, the fans surrounding Sang-woo and even the reporters who were in between.
Dozens of people started chattering about Sang-woo.
There were even fans who took advantage of the chaos and groped Sang-woo’s body.
“Haha, wait a minute. Calm down…”
But the fans didn’t listen.
Rather, the confusion only increased as time passed.
So, Sang-woo decided to take a special measure because he didn’t want it to continue like this.
[Barrier]
A spherical barrier formed around Sang-woo’s body and pushed people away.
“uh?”
“It’s a skill.”
“This is hard. Totally amazing.”
Although they were suddenly pushed out, they were fans of high school girls who were not in a bad mood or rather touched the barrier to see if it was strange.
Most of the fans seemed to have finally calmed down a bit at the sudden barrier.
Sangwoo said to fans and reporters.
“Everyone, please pay attention!”
Then the buzzing noise subsided and everyone started paying attention to Sang-woo.
Sang-woo cleared his throat and continued talking.
“Thank you all for coming here to see me. It’s the first time I’ve had something like this, so I’m very confused. Still, I am so grateful that you came here because you like me. Why do you like me so much… haha.”
“no. You are the best!”
“Brother is cool!”
Fans cheering for Sangwoo’s humble thanks.
And reporters captured it with their cameras.
Click-click-
“Then that’s my impression. In the future, I will train harder so that I don’t disappoint those who like me, so I can go beyond A-class and become an S-class hunter.”
“and-!!!”
“S-class Kazuah~!”
It was the first meeting with fans, so Sang-woo didn’t know what to do, so he tried to wrap it up with his impressions.
But it wasn’t over.
“Brother, please sign me!”
A girl fan approached and held out an autographed book and a marker with bright eyes.
Sangwoo’s pupils shook.
‘sign? I don’t have an autograph.’
Even when I entered the enlistment, my comrades in the trainees asked for an autograph, so all I had to do was write my name in print.
There was still nothing that could be called an official signature.
“What sign?”
“It’s your signature.”
When he sees the girl’s brightly smiling face, Sang-woo’s pride doesn’t allow him to write down his name.
His head was spinning tight.
‘…good. It makes a sign.’
That’s right too.
I had to drag the time during the time to make the sign.
Sang-woo showed his wit and opened his mouth.
“Oh wait a minute. Have you all eaten?”
“No~”
“I didn’t eat.”
“I’m hungry!”
When asked if they had eaten, the fans answered loudly with anticipation for some reason.
It was lunchtime, just after 12:00 at the time, so it must have been a natural consequence.
Sang-woo said with a smile of repentance.
“Then, would you like to have lunch with me if you haven’t eaten yet? I shoot.”
“Really?”
“and-! I want to go!”
“me too!”
Fans excited about the sound of shooting rice.
“Is there a good restaurant in front of me? Everyone, please follow me.”
Sang-woo took them out of the army training center and headed for a nearby meat restaurant.
After a short search, I found out that this restaurant was okay.
‘Good. I took the time to eat.’
At the same time, Sang-woo found a signature production site through the Internet and requested a signature.
‘This will take a bit of a delay. I need it right now.’
However, putting in a request doesn’t mean it’s made right away.
In this case, it would be faster to visit in person rather than the Internet.
Sang-woo moved his alter ego and sent it to the address of the signature maker.
The alter ego that was training with Raven in Seoul jumped out of training and was shot like the wind.
Paaaang –
An alter ego that is fired like a shell flying.
And in the blink of an eye, we arrived at the signature maker.
When I opened the door to the company’s office and entered, I saw employees ordering and eating delivery food, probably because it was lunchtime.
“Hey, how long does it take to make a signature? I’m in a hurry, but.”
Sang-woo, his alter ego, spoke urgently.
Then, the person who seemed to be the representative with rice paste in his mouth stood up.
“Yes, as soon as the customer pays, we will do it right away. How long can I do it?”
“Right now.”
Sang-woo spoke with an urgent expression.
“Oh, right now it is difficult. The request is a bit behind…”
“How much does that request cost?”
“It depends on the shape or concept. In the case of a general payment signature, it costs about 50,000 won, and complex and fancy ones like celebrity signatures cost about 150,000 won.”
“Then I will give you 1 million won. Please do it right now.”
Not twice, but almost five times.
The president’s mouth dropped open at the amount Sang-woo called.
“One million pears?”
“yes. Is it possible now?”
“Oh yeah. of course. Please wait a moment!”
The president wrote down Sang-woo’s name in Korean and English, then left behind the employees who were eating and headed to the workroom.
and after a while
“Your draft is complete. Here it is. Let’s check it out.”
Sang-woo confirmed the signature draft handed over by the president.
It’s not too flashy, it’s understated, but it’s a signature that looks like something.
It was exactly what Sangwoo wanted.
Sang-woo was satisfied.
“Hey, I really like it. Please proceed with this.”
“yes. Then we will help you pay.”
After Sang-woo made a simple payment with his smart goggles and linked ID bracelet.
The president delivered a video of the drafting and signing practice room to Sang-woo.
“thank you. Can we practice here?”
“Yes, whatever. haha.”
As soon as Sang-woo got the autograph, he rented a spot in the office and started practicing right away.
‘It’s harder than I thought.’
Although Sang-woo has superhuman motor nerves, it was difficult to follow his signature at once.
I couldn’t hold the original pen well these days, and when I signed, the speed of the pen’s movement and the distribution of force were also very important.
After practicing several times, Sang-woo took a special measure when it didn’t go as well as expected.
‘Everybody practice signing.’
Except for the alter egos who were doing important work, I had all the alter egos practice autographs.
Then, it wasn’t long before Sang-woo was able to skillfully make the signature his own.
“Hey, you’re already doing well. You are amazing.”
“What. Thank you boss for renting the practice space. Enough then.”
“yes. Come again!”
Sang-woo succeeded in creating his own unique signature as an alter ego in Seoul.
All of that had just finished serving the meat at the meat restaurant.
Sang-woo felt a little more at ease.
“Fans, you know I shoot, right? Everyone, enjoy your meal!”
“thank you for this food!”
“Oppa, I’ll eat well~”
The meat party started like that.
At first, the girl fans who ate discreetly and the male fans who were cautious began to show their true colors as soon as the meat went into their mouths.
“Wow, it’s really delicious!”
“My brother is so delicious!”
“Haha, eat a lot.”
“yes. Ahhh~ I have to pick out the mulberry.”
After everyone enjoyed their meal.
After paying the bill, Sang-woo went to a nearby cafe and bought another drink.
And he rented a cafe table and signed autographs for fans.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssseussssssuk-
A sign skillfully unfolded with flamboyant hand movements.
It was like a celebrity who went around fan signing events for years.
“What is your name?”
“…I’m Jeong-daun.”
“It’s down. Your name is pretty. May your future be filled with only happiness. Here you go.”
“thank you!”
Later, when I had more free time, when a girl fan blushed and replied with her name, she showed off her sense of writing a cheering phrase along with her name next to the autograph.
We took pictures together in between.
In particular, whenever Sangwoo smiled, female fans really liked it.
“Look at you smiling. It looks like it came straight out of a cartoon.”
“huh. Sangwoo oppa is really cool. The autograph is nice too.”
“that’s right. I guess there is nothing I can’t do.”
“I should keep this as an heirloom. If you sell it in a hundred years, it will be very expensive, right?”
After taking the final group photo, the fan signing event ended with everyone satisfied.
“Everyone, thank you for being with me until late. It would be nice to have a place like this again next time the opportunity arises. Thanks to all of you, my heart warms up and I gain more strength. I hope you guys get something like me. See you next time then. goodbye.”
Sangwoo, no, his alter ego No. 20, finished talking in front of his fans.
[Sub-space]
He jumped into the sub-space and returned to Seoul.
After that, Sang-woo took off the military uniform of No. 20 in the back of the sub-space, changed it into a combat suit, and sent it back to the hunting ground.
Only then was I able to disconnect from number 20.
“Whoa, it’s over.”
A fan signing event that seems like nothing special.
But unexpectedly, it took a lot of energy and time passed by.
‘I heard that I have a fan club…’
Sang-woo relaxed and lay down on the bed.
He had spent several hundred dollars, but it was worth it as it was covered by catching a few monsters.
Rather, just knowing that there are so many people who like me was a great healing experience and an experience that filled my heart.
‘I could become someone’s idol.’
Sang-woo, who always looked up to and looked up to others.
I don’t know when he grew up, but now he has become an idol and an idol for others.
And the feeling of being someone’s hero like that… wasn’t bad.
‘I have to work harder in the future.’
Sang-woo promised that he would not betray everyone’s expectations by becoming the first S-class hunter in Korea and even the strongest in the world.
* * *
Meanwhile at that time.
Kang Jun-young, who moderately dealt with the fans and reporters who came to the ceremony, had arrived in Seoul.
The place he immediately found was a luxurious room salon he frequented.
I stopped by there from daylight since it is a membership system, but Kang Jun-young was a VIP and entered right away even though he did not present a separate membership card.
“Are you here? It’s been a while.”
As he entered, a clean-looking employee greeted him.
“It’s been a really long time. Mr. Seokhyun, please reserve a room for me.”
“Yes, I will guide you to the room you always use.”
In the luxurious room that was guided like that, Kang Jun-young ordered Western liquor.
Soon after, the drinks were prepared.
Kang Jun-yeong started drinking from the bottle instead of pouring it into the glass.
Gulp-gulp-gulp…
Kang Jun-young, who shot a bottle in an instant as if drinking a beverage.
Still, if it wasn’t enough, I opened another liquor next to it.
All of them were strong drinks over 50 degrees, but for Kang Jun-young, a B-class hunter, this level of alcohol was not a problem at all.
Rather, I had to drink this much to feel a little drunk.
So Kang Jun-yeong stopped drinking after drinking several bottles in a row.
The sensitive feeling of the skin on the surface of his face seemed to be a bit intoxicating.
“Ha… that sucks.”
Kang Joon-young let out a deep sigh.
It was very embarrassing for 4 weeks to see Jeong Sang-woo’s friendly face.
Has your heart been twisted?
Is it too much jealousy?
‘But I deserve to be jealous. I’ve been working hard for almost 7 years. But to be pushed by a kid who hasn’t been active for a year.’
Kang Joon-young, who appeared to be in his early to mid-twenties, was in his late twenties, contrary to what he looked like.
After debuting as an idol at the young age of 20, he awakened and gained strength, and since then he has been running without a break.
Even so, I lost to a one-year-old.
No, it was to the point where I had no choice but to give in and go in before I even had the heart to stick with it in the first place.
Because Jeong Sang-woo’s physicality was too perfect.
‘They say the era of Jeong Sang-woo will open in the future.’
Shin Jin-wook, his close brother, Hyeseong Guild Attack Team 1 leader, told Kang Jun-yeong that his father had told him.
What if, as he said, the era of Jeong Sang-woo comes?
What if the era comes when all Korean hunters have to bow their heads to him?
It seemed that Kang Joon-young could not stand it.
‘Jealousy’, the so-called ‘snake mind’, boiled in the depths of his heart.
Then a thought passed through his mind.
No, it was a temptation that I had been constantly conflicted with and agonized over since I was at the training center.
‘Yes, if that’s what my older brother said…’
A new product developed by Tron.
Even if you are not an Awakener, you can forcibly overcome the limits of human beings.
‘If I get that power, will I be able to surpass Jeong Sang-woo?’
I don’t know if I’ll be able to surpass Jeong Sang-woo just because I get that power.
I just wanted to lean on that hope if I could get even a ray of hope from the despair that I might have to live under Jeong Sang-woo forever.
With the smart goggles activated, Kang Joon-young was conflicted over whether or not to call someone to ask for a favor.
He eventually called. The name ‘Shin
Jin
-wook’ appeared on the hologram screen of his smart goggles.
