Episode 144
[…The lodging is here. If you have any inconveniences with the facilities, please let me know.]
Yooseong Shin did not expect much from Sebastian’s request for the accommodation’s facilities. However, the facilities of the accommodation that I checked were beyond my imagination.
‘It’s not pushed even by warming…’
A state-of-the-art facility with money poured into it.
Seven Number Accommodation in Clock Tower Academy was decorated with simple but luxurious furniture and facilities. In addition, since it is a 6-person accommodation, the satisfaction that comes from the size was considerable.
‘And this familiar yet unfamiliar smell… Is it Sumire’s new menu?’
Meat simmered until tender and vegetables with their natural flavor well brewed.
The strong smell of Sumire’s meat stew raised Shin Yoo-seong’s anticipation.
‘…I can be sure even without tasting it. This is definitely delicious.’
If you think about the time it takes for the rest of the party to come back, you have to wait for at least an hour to eat.
‘It’s the perfect time to take a bath while smelling the meat stew.’
Shin Yoo-seong organizes his own schedule from the entrance. At that time, Sumire, wearing an apron, welcomed Shin Yoo-seong with a happy face in the kitchen.
“ah! Mr. Yoosung! Did you come back earlier than expected?”
“huh. Eun-ah and Amy will be back soon too.”
After finishing the workout, Kim Eun-ah chose the academy’s shower room instead of the dorm’s bathroom to wash off her sweat.
It seems that it was embarrassing to wash in a common accommodation. Sumire immediately nodded with an understanding face.
“Ah… then! Yoosung, would you like to take a bath first? Or… start with rice?”
When Sumire hesitated and asked with an embarrassed face, why? Shin Yoosung calmly replied.
“I’ll wash up before Eun-ah and Amy come back.”
Let’s untie the ribbon. Shin Yoo-seong’s flowing hair. Sumire stared at Shin Yoo-seong’s face and pointed urgently to the bathroom.
“You know that! …I warmed up the bath water beforehand!”
“I’m always thankful. Sumire.”
In spite of Shin Yoo-seong’s gratitude, Sumire laughed awkwardly and turned her gaze to the stew.
Then Sumire spoke softly with a thoughtful face.
“…Because I can’t go to the game this time. I wanted to take care of the condition of the party members.”
Sumire smiled at Shin Yoo-seong at the end of those words. Shin Yoo-seong was honest about his thoughts and feelings.
“Sumire always thinks of us.”
Shin Yoo-seong approached slowly while talking in a soft voice. Sumire looked at Shin Yuseong with nervous eyes at the distance.
“Mr. Yooseong…”
“As expected, our party wouldn’t work without you.”
Sumire made the picky Kim Eun-ah open up and made the distrustful Lee Si-woo admit it, and has never betrayed Shin Yoo-seong’s trust and expectations. Always breaking through the limits and showing results beyond expectations.
“I’m always thankful. Sumire.”
Even though it wasn’t a long time since Yooseong Shin made the party, Sumire had so many things to be thankful for.
Let Shin Yoo-seong smile lightly with thanks. Sumire’s face, which met our eyes, turned red.
“Me too…”
But Sumire somehow looked straight at Shin Yoosung without avoiding her gaze.
“Thank you as always! Mr. Yoosung!”
Sumire, who endured her shyness and smiled at Shin Yoo-seong, had definitely changed.
Took.
At that time, Yuseong Shin’s hand touched Sumire’s head.
‘Didn’t Sumire always ask for this when she was affected by fragments?’
The power of fragments makes Sumire’s personality honest. In other words, stroking Shin Yoo-seong’s hair is the most desired action on a daily basis.
Shin Yuseong remembered Sumire’s request as a sign of gratitude and gently stroked it.
“Then I will continue to ask. Sumire.”
After saying that, Shin Yoo-seong left for the bathroom. Sumire stood in the dark as if she had become a stone statue with a reddened face.
‘Mr. Yooseong…’
.
Sumire touching her hair.
Even though he couldn’t go to the game, Sumire was happier than ever thanks to Shin Yoo-sung’s kindness.

Shaaaaa.
sound of pouring water.
In the shower room with a blue glass partition, Amy poked her head out at Kim Eun-ah.
“Aya. …This is just my opinion. I think you’d better not be friends with Angela. Should I say something… dangerous?”
“Hey, are you talking about that again? What have I been so close to? All I said was a few words.”
“It’s about being careful. Ugh… Angela Jae… Is there really something?”
Amy, who raised her head, was restless, but Kim Eun-ah dismissed the story.
“okay. Okay, so wash up.”
“It’s true…”
“What was the strategy you said you had to tell earlier?”
“Oh that?”
At Kim Eun-ah’s question, Amy smiled proudly. Although I rushed to take Angela out somehow to get her away from Kim Eun-ah. Amy’s words about needing a strategy meeting were true.
“Team Lorelei. This time, the association received support for the artifact.”
“what? Isn’t the saint’s phrase the end?”
The Holy Sphere is a unique artifact given by Aris to deal with Sumire, a necromancer. Sumire’s participation was sealed just by her presence.
“Yeah, it won’t be unique this time either, but… According to the information, the opponent for the match was decided to be Korea, and the deal was ordered.”
Eunah Kim frowned as if something was bothering her at Amy’s story.
“…ordered an artifact? Could it be… that it was made in the ‘Tower Workshop’?”
Tower’s workshop.
This is a blacksmith shop that selects elites from six countries among craftsmen who make hunter items. The workshop of the tower was only available to a very few top-level hunters, and astronomical costs were incurred to reprocess the artifact.
“…so you don’t know what they made?”
Kim Eun-ah changed her expression to a serious expression and wiped herself with a towel. From the beginning, the British team ordered Unique Artifacts and Artifacts from the workshop at the top.
The country’s honor is at stake, so Britain is doing its best. Kim Eun-ah felt impatient for no reason.
‘I have to go out this time…’
Kim Eun-ah could not participate in the game against Japan due to family circumstances. After all, this is England’s first appearance.
However, losing due to the difference in artifacts made me angry just by imagining it. That was the result of Kim Eun-ah making the training with Shin Yoo-seong meaningless.
‘Whatever those guys bring. I have to win somehow…’
Kim Eun-ah’s strong desire to win.
Deep in thought, Kim Eun-ah bit her lips lightly. Amy walked out of the locker room carefully like a cat, holding the shower towel she had prepared.
Shuk- Shussuk!
Amy, who had just finished dressing, glanced at Kim Eun-ah and said.
“…But what about Eunah? Honestly, can’t you guess what kind of artifact it is?
Even so, Amy had a quick head turn. As proof of that, the academy’s written grades aren’t as good as Sumire’s, but they’re at the top. Kim Eun-ah was drying her hair with a towel wrapped around her without any reply.
‘…An artifact prepared to fight us.’
Took.
Kim Eun-ah put down the dryer.
I could tell just by thinking about it for a second. Also, Amy was right.
“Looking at what they prepared now, it must be an artifact to prepare for our team rather than to strengthen their characteristics.”
Amy nodded at Kim Eun-ah’s serious voice and moved her head.
“If you look at the preparation of the holy sphere to stop Sumire. It must be so.”
“Then the question is who the artifact is meant to stop… I prepared the Sphere of the Holy Spirit, so it’s not Sumire.”
At Kim Eun-ah’s reasoning, Amy agreed and said.
“huh! That’s right, I’m sorry, but I’m not Siwoo, who has never shown a great performance. What, we’re not even number 7.”
Finally Sumire. Siwoo Lee. Excluding the option Amy, there are only two left. It was Shin Yoo-seong and Kim Eun-ah.
Kim Eun-ah looked at herself in the mirror and turned on electricity in her right hand.
Paget-!
Let the blue electricity emit light.
Kim Eun-ah muttered a little with a rather serious expression.
“…is it me?”
“I don’t know. …Maybe it’s an artifact to stop you if you’re not the party leader?”
Kim Eun-ah is an electrical characteristic called an element. There were quite a few types of artifacts with resistance.
“If it were me. Could we have to fight without electricity?”
Kim Eun-ah’s direct ball.
Amy hesitated for a moment, then scratched her cheek and opened her mouth.
“Yeah, I think if I were to keep you in check, it would be electricity. A suit that doesn’t conduct electricity or an artifact that absorbs electricity… something like that.”
“is it.”
Kim Eun-ah, who was already dressed, was tying her hair tie.
Swoop- Tuk.
‘It’s electricity resistant…’
If Amy’s information was true, I didn’t know that I might be fighting an opponent who really doesn’t have electricity.
It was a formidable opponent, just like the first time I faced a subspecies of the Yeowryong. However, Kim Eun-ah opened her mouth with a calm face.
“doesn’t care.”
However, Kim Eun-ah learned martial arts while training with Shin Yoo-seong. Learned new skills. It wasn’t the self of the past that only relied on electric attacks.
“I will win.”
Eunah Kim’s confident voice.
Amy involuntarily opened her eyes wide.
“…Eun-ah, it’s so cool! Doesn’t that look like the party leader?”
Amy’s cute smile.
Amy was smiling as usual as she looked at Kim Eun-ah.
