Episode 94
.
The sound of footsteps spreading all around.
It was Baek Myeong-ho, who was in charge of preparing for the match, walking while touching his glasses.
“…This is it.”
A space full of darkness and silence all around. However, with Baek Myeong-ho’s signal, all the lights in the room turned on. The atmosphere turned. Various artifacts stored in huge glass showcases.
Yuchan Kang looked around the showcase with a happy expression.
“…All of them are good artifacts. Very good.”
It was Korea that prepared the reward for this competition. Baek Myeong-ho still lowered his head toward Kang Yoo-chan and replied.
“China and Japan. Support from Southeast Asia was great! And thanks to some guilds becoming sponsors and donating artifacts, we were able to get some good stuff.”
“Ah chuckle! i heard that too Please send me the list separately later. I should at least say hello.”
“yes! All right!”
Let Baek Myeong-ho bow to you.
Yuchan Kang pointed to one of the artifacts in the showcase.
“But did you say that the artifact from the first match was the coral stone of that star?”
“you’re right. At the request of the winner, we plan to reprocess it into a bracelet or necklace and present it.”
star coral.
A mysterious mineral that amplifies elemental special abilities. Kang Yoo-chan fell into trouble with calm eyes.
“…The Japanese team and the Korean team. Aren’t both party leaders far from star coral stones?”
“Ah … my thoughts were short. For fairness, this artifact is randomized according to the game order…”
Myeong-ho Baek immediately bowed his head at the words of Yoo-chan Kang, the president of the association. Kang Yoo-chan laughed, saying that it was done with his hands behind his back.
“I’m not blaming you. don’t do it too much Actually, I have prepared my own proposal.”
Yuchan Kang took something out of his pocket. Inside the small box is a beautiful orange marble.
“…This?”
“Thousand-year-old. It’s what I got when I attacked the tower with Yu Won-Hak. chuckle! It’s something that hasn’t even been revealed to the public.”
Baek Myeong-ho swallowed a gulp at Kang Yu-chan’s story. The marble in front of you is an artifact obtained by Kang Yoo-chan, the head of the Kwon Wang Yuwon Department Association, through the attack of the tower.
Baek Myeong-ho could not contain his curiosity.
“Speaking of other towers’ artifacts, what floor are they on?”
“Well, was it about the 50th floor? Now, get it.”
Let Kang Yoo-chan calmly hand over the thousand-year-old. Baek Myeong-ho’s hands trembled.
“Artifacts on the 50th floor…”
Cheonnyeonok was a treasure that even Baek Myung-ho, who had managed numerous artifacts, had never seen before.
By far the best of the artifacts that have been hung as prizes so far.
“I see! As a prize for the first match, I will put this item instead of the star coral stone!”
At Baek Myeong-ho’s roaring reply, Kang Yoo-chan chuckled and left. Baek Myeong-ho looked at his back and recalled a rumor he had heard before.
‘The president of the association said he would look after student Shin Yoo-seong, who participated this time…. The rumors were true.’
Still, it was not a victim or an unfair condition. The 50th floor artifact, the Millennium Jade, is much more valuable than the Coral Stone of the Stars. There was nothing wrong with providing artifacts.
Swoop. widely.
Baek Myeong-ho thought as he put the box containing the thousand-year-old jade into the display case.
‘…The match between Korea and Japan in the first game. Which one will get the millennium jade? I’m curious…’

A bench on the promenade.
Amy, who turned off the broadcast, was exhausted and stretched out on the bench. The lengthy broadcast and the experience of Sumire’s House of Horrors overlapped, and her body was already in a state of disrepair.
“Ugh… I think I’ll get really sick tomorrow… Hehe, but the number of subscribers has increased a lot.”
Amy was naturally proud of the increased number of fans as if her hard work had worked.
“Hehe, how much will it increase if we go to the competition?”
Amy, who was smiling as if she was in a better mood. Looking down at such Amy, someone grinned.
“hi?”
Amy slowly raised her head at the woman’s voice that she had heard somewhere.
“uh? yes hello!”
The identity of the familiar face is Shin Ha-yoon, who is now in charge of the student council. Amy couldn’t think of a point of contact between herself and Shin Ha-yoon.
“Hehe, I’m sorry, is this too sudden?”
Having said that, Shin Ha-yoon naturally sat down next to her, and Amy was nervous for no reason.
“There is nothing to be nervous about. …I just tried talking to him because it was a familiar face. are you broadcasting? yes?”
At Shin Ha-yoon’s words, Amy let out a sigh of relief.
‘Huh~ You were my fan~?’
Amy looks at Shin Ha-yoon with a proud expression. Shin Ha-yoon looked into the distance and said.
“…You were the relay for the preliminary round. yes?”
“Ah yes! that’s right! It’s a very recent broadcast! Did you see that too?”
Amy thought Shin Ha-yoon was her fan.
“And you’re a member of Shin Yoo-seong’s party?”
“Huh, that’s right!”
Amy moved her eyebrows up and down smirking at Shin Ha-yoon.
‘Hey, how good I am. Did you even investigate? Still, if the student president did something like that, it’s an abuse of authority~’
Amy didn’t seem to be offended by Shin Ha-yoon’s interest. However, the target Shin Ha-yoon was interested in was not Amy.
“I see. How is the party life?”
“Oh party? Hehe, I’m quite busy with broadcasting work… I can’t participate much.”
Let Amy scratch her cheek. Shin Ha-yoon asked in a soft voice.
“…Does it sound like a good party venue?”
“Hehe yes! good! It’s not just me! Everyone follows the party leader?”
Amy showered Shin Yoo-seong with a happy face.
“I see. …really a good party venue? Then do you think you are important to the party leader?”
Amy vigorously nodded at Shin Ha-yoon’s gentle question.
“yes! For sure!”
Innocent Amy, whose eyes even shine.
Amy didn’t even have a single doubt that Shin Yoo-seong valued the party members. Shin Ha-yoon laughed at Amy, who looked innocent, and stood up.
“I had a nice time today. I hope you continue to get along well with the party leader.”
Let Shin Ha-yoon wake up with a smile. Amy waved her hand.
‘…I feel like the student president is a very nice person. Because I have a clear eye for people!’
Unlike Amy, who had a field of flowers in her head, Shin Ha-yoon turned her head and smiled coldly with an expressionless face.

A ballroom in one of the auditoriums decorated in a medieval style. Shin Yoo-seong and Kim Eun-ah were sitting at an antique table.
“Hehe…”
Regardless of the social party-like atmosphere around her, Kim Eun-ah was still hugging the killer whale doll.
“Yoosung. Didn’t you make this killer whale doll really well? Open your mouth for this.”
It was a rare sight to see Kim Eun-ah, who easily thinks of ten million won because she is a huge conglomerate, cherishing the doll.
“Can you put your arms in your mouth?”
‘…Looks like he really liked it.’
Shin Yoo-seong thought it was an insignificant gift, but seeing Kim Eun-ah happily made me feel proud.
Swoop.
Kim Eun-ah lifted the killer whale doll with both hands and put it on Shin Yoo-seong’s arm.
In that state, Kim Eun-ah moves the killer whale doll’s jaw up and down.
Shin Yoo-seong asked with a puzzled face.
“… Eunah. What are you doing?”
“Feeding the orca.”
Kim Eun-ah’s expression as she spoke was mischievous like that of a goblin.
“That… is my arm.”
“Originally, killer whales are carnivores.”
Let’s Shin Yuseong smile. Eunah Kim smiled mischievously. It’s a far cry from the roughness I first saw.
‘You’re really playful in the first place?’
The usual harsh appearance is probably a hard shell. Rather, her current appearance seemed similar to Kim Eun-ah’s original personality.
And showing the inside of that shell was proof that Kim Eun-ah opened her heart to Shin Yoo-seong.
Saaak.
Putting the orca in her pocket, Kim Eun-ah stood up and stretched. Kim Eun-ah’s stretching that doesn’t go well with a prom, let alone a dress.
“hey. Yoosung.”
Kim Eun-ah stretched out her hand toward the seated Shin Yoo-seong.
“I have changed my mind.”
Swoop.
as soon as we hold hands Shin Yoo-seong got up naturally with the lead of Kim Eun-ah. A dance song that changes at the right time. Shin Yoo-seong looked down at Kim Eun-ah and asked.
“What are you thinking?”
While in the hospital, Kim Eun-ah looked back on her mind. And finally admitted.
“Even after the confrontation is over. I want to stay at the party.”
Kim Eun-ah enjoyed the experience at the party. Even while I was in the hospital, I thought of Shin Yoo-sung and the party members.
[Ah, no matter how small the wound! It’s important to sterilize before germs enter!]
Sumire, who got angry for the first time for her own wounds.
[Because you didn’t tell me.]
Shin Yoo-seong understood what he wanted to hide.
‘It’s a bit noisy, but… Amy has that guy too.’
Although Kim Eun-ah tried hard not to open her heart in order not to be hurt by the memories of now. In the end, it was evidence of failure.
“…So, can I stay with you?”
Kim Eun-ah looks at herself and shakes her hand. Shin Yoosung nodded.
“…However much.”
Shin Yoo-seong and Kim Eun-ah, who seemed to have no contact. However, the two of them bonded more and more firmly under the name of colleagues.
