Chapter 141 (1/2)

Yi Hye-Rin and Joo Ji-Hyuk went to the East Sea - or, more specifically, to a small hut located inside a forest near the East Sea

The salty scent blowing inland by the cal the land, and the rays of the sun high up in the sky shi+ning down got broken into a beautiful cascade by the gaps of leaves on trees

Within this brilliant verdant landscape, her hut silently stood still

”If we're to value the land according to the view, this place should easily fetch over 90 million, don't you think?” (Yi Hye-Rin)

Yi Hye-Rin glanced at Joo Ji-Hyuk and asked him

”Probably” (Joo Ji-Hyuk)

Just like hoas during the last 30 , his answer proved to be no fun at all It was so dry and indifferent

Yi Hye-Rin clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction, and increased her walking pace towards the hut Joo Ji-Hyuk silently followed her

”Should I knock?” (Yi Hye-Rin)

Joo Ji-Hyuk nodded wordlessly Seeing his especially stone-hard expressions of today, she was getting ht now, the circumstances meant that she couldn't express her disappointlared at him fiercely once instead, and then cautiously knocked on the door

Knock, knock

Winds rustled past the silent forest, causing the branches to issue a slightly sorroail Did she not hear the knocking, because of the cries of the trees?

Yi Hye-Rin knocked on the door again Only then, she could sense a faint sense of movement behind the door

Soon after, click A lock that wouldn't have mattered if it wasn't there, unlatched

”Who is… oh, Hye-Rin? Even Knight Joo Ji-Hyuk, too?”

Was it because of the blinding sunshi+ne? A woman so beautiful, that even the fellooman Yi Hye-Rin couldn't help but blush, revealed herself

Underneath her hair cascading like a curtain of silk, her intricate facial features seeantly-carved lips, eyes that seeht and perfectly defined nose, plus the pure and pale-sh to cause a serious confusion on figuring out whether she was an Elf or a hu

”What brings you guys here?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

”……” (Yi Hye-Rin & Joo Ji-Hyuk)

A clean and pure echo, created by a ly beautiful

Yi Hye-Rin stared at Ki while, before her head snapped to her side, out of the blue And as she suspected, Joo Ji-Hyuk was standing there, his ape

”Pretending to be serious and all that, and now, you…!!” (Yi Hye-Rin)

Anger rushed up and took over; Yi Hye-Rin slaht in themouth of Joo Ji-Hyuk, an unidentifiable liquid that could either be his spit or blood dribbled out

Yi Hye-Rin and Joo Ji-Hyuk moved on from that small commotion and entered the hut

It wasn't spacious inside, but there was this sense of cozy snugness and a certain affection present to this place Yi Hye-Rin sently and surveyed the interior for a bit, before finding a bunch of stuff that weren't there before taking up space here and there

And they were… cute stuffed dolls

There was a doll of Athany, a doll of a certain white bird reseon… and finally, even a doll that kinda, sorta looked like an Orc And the doll that was suspected to be replica of the Orc took up the best location of theht above Kim Yu-Rin's bed

”Wha, what are you doing? Please, hurry and come in and don't look at the weird stuff” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Becoed the two of them towards a small coffee table There were only two chairs here; Yu-Rin settled down on the corner of the bed, while Joo Ji-Hyuk and Yi Hye-Rin took up the available chairs

”Have you guys eaten yet?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

”No, not ye…” (Joo Ji-Hyuk)

”Yeah, we ate before co here” (Yi Hye-Rin)

Yi Hye-Rin hastily covered the tactless Joo Ji-Hyuk's mouth and replied in his stead

”Oh, really? Then, what about a cup of tea?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

”We don't need tea either, Captain” (Yi Hye-Rin)

Yi Hye-Rin placed an emphasis on the word 'Captain' as she replied Kim Yu-Rin assumed a faint smile

”When are you co a break for a post-op trauma, you know” (Yi Hye-Rin)

The very first vacation Kim Yu-Rin went on in ten years of her career was already al now And, ith the justification of 'recovering from the after-effects of a her ups of the Raven Knights Order could do was to impatiently stomp on their feet and wait

No, it wasn't just the Raven Order, but the entire country was sto on their feet as well

”…Sorry Please wait for a little bit longer I'd like to enjoy it for a while longer, this vacation I've never had before” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Her as gentle, yet unyielding Yi Hye-Rin spat out a long sigh and took a look around the interior of the hut once more

”Just what exactly are you doing here all alone? Sure, the view looks great, but it's not like you can stare at the nature all the tiht?” (Yi Hye-Rin)

”Fuhut, does it look like that? However, there are s to do here than you think” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Kiently arched Yi Hye-Rin co eyes were an infringelance at Joo Ji-Hyuk Instead of his mouth, his eyes ide open this time

”I can go out fishi+ng, read a book in cos I failed to realise before Probably, one up a level like this?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Yi Hye-Rin wordlessly glared at Kiaze drifted towards a s on top of the coffee table It was a seriously adorable little thing But besides that fatally attractive cuteness, a faint aura coht desire to possess it to settle on a small corner of her mind

”Heu, hmm” (Kim Yu-Rin)

As if she got worried about Yi Hye-Rin asking for it, Kied the doll and bashfully came up with excuses for her action

”…All the dolls in here, the Guild Master Ki as presents, you know He said that it's because Ialone I definitely didn't buy theive theood intentions seriously…” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Kim Yu-Rin spoke these words since, in actuality, she didn't want to give them away anyways

However, at the sauests froze up stiff

After all, Kim Sae-Jin had been kidnapped By a nonsensically powerful being no less, and his current whereabouts were completely unknown

Kie in the atmosphere and she quickly looked at both of them

”What? What's the matter… Can it be?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

With tears forritted his teeth and stared off into the distance instead

”Did so happen to him?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Kim Yu-Rin stood up from her spot with a surprised face

Two of the for a while After all, Sae-Jin's Trait was a big secret However, in order to persuade Kim Yu-Rin, the secret had to come out in the open

”What, what happened?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Kihed out softly and studied Joo Ji-Hyuk's mood for a bit He nodded his head once

”Fuu… Okay, please listen closely, Captain Actually, the Guild Master's Trait is… he can transform into a Monster” (Yi Hye-Rin)

”…What?” (Kim Yu-Rin)

Immediately, Ki, the shock of this revelation quickly reasse in her brain

And well, a look of shock even greater than before lit up on her face

A Trait where a person could turn into a Monster And then, the Hero Orc and Kim Sae-Jin
