Chapter 145 – Chapter 145 Hero Academy (2-12)
While I was heading to the restaurant with Song A-ra, I heard a communication from Armonia.
[I didn’t expect Cho Seo-hyun to appear at that place.]
‘Yeah, I wouldn’t have seen it if it was just the two of us. Lena, thank you.’
[Thank you for the compliment. I just did my job. Master.]
When I was giving Song Ara advice on her bow, and she was distracted, Lena was waiting in the warp room for her shift.
Lena saw a small sound that Armonia and I couldn’t detect and the existence of a super seohyun that looked finely visible on the screen and let us know.
In addition, it seemed to have played a part in discovering Cho Seo-hyeon’s low level of stealth.
As soon as I learned that Cho Seo-hyun was there, I immediately praised her, even breaking the atmosphere with Song A-ra.
Although it may have seemed like a frustrating instructor to Song Ah-ra, the important thing right now was Cho Seo-hyeon.
And fortunately, Song Ah-ra also understood my frustration.
[But even if Seohyun Cho was watching, I didn’t expect her to praise me so excessively.]
‘Because it’s not a story that isn’t in my heart.’
[….]
Even though she went through such pain in her school days, she is a woman who came here and steadfastly worked hard for her students.
… Although her personality is a problem because she runs rampant like a cat
While communicating like that, I arrived at Song Ara and her restaurant.
The time is already 8:00.
‘Heh… Eat quickly and kiss Sung Soo-ah’s back… Yes?’
As soon as we arrived at the restaurant and entered, a person greeted us.
“Uh? Sir?”
“Instructor Cho Seo-hyeon?”
“….”
In the second, Seohyun leaned against her wall and glanced at us with her arms crossed.
However, there was a different feeling from the poses and facial expressions than usual.
She was usually a woman who held her own weight, but now she gave off a particularly heavy atmosphere.
Seohyeon Cho, who had been watching us quietly, opened her mouth while looking at Song Ara, who was standing upright with her hips bouncing on her back.
“Where is she going?”
“Ah~ Teacher Seong Soo-ho helped me with training. I want to eat now.”
“… Okay.”
Cho Seohyun looked at me for a moment with a light smile, then she opened her mouth as she lifted the tray.
“If you’re going to eat, let’s eat together.”
***
A light came on in the dark room and she greeted Seohyun with her second.
But she didn’t react to the light that greeted her, and she quietly walked away, expressionless, and collapsed facedown on the bed.
Cho Seohyun muttered as she buried her face in her pillow.
“… It’s the main book.”
As he muttered, Seong Soo-ho’s words that he had overheard at the shooting range passed by.
(You shouldn’t talk about Instructor Seohyeon Cho that way. He’s the one who thinks about how to teach you all day long. Would it be rude to call such a person cute?)
(As far as I can see, there is no other instructor here who is as responsible and hardworking as he is. He is working hard enough to say that he is devoting himself to teaching you guys.)
Cho Seohyun has been working hard all her life to be recognized.
Her first effort returned to her was the sustained violence and contempt of her school days.
After that, she entered a small and medium guild, and Seohyun overcame her trauma and tried to somehow gain recognition.
However, all she returns is her shadow, her awareness of her super-Kanghyun, and her co-workers who treat her like she is in a place where she is not.
Clearly, they had no malice.
However, her continued treatment and treatment eventually evaporated the camaraderie within her, and eventually, all of her colleagues who were by her side gradually disappeared.
As her family, colleagues, and friends disappeared, she tried to do something to overcome her loneliness, and she was notified of her service as an instructor at the consulate.
When she was notified to serve as an instructor, Seohyun saw it as an opportunity.
Where her own life got twisted, she saw a chance to untie the knot….
She never laid hands on the cadets. She really worked hard for them.
She thought it was all right.
But there was a problem.
He was an assistant instructor.
The assistant instructors who were assigned did not show any sense of responsibility.
If I thought I could work with him, I would often quit.
Even though she had the best job, the difficulty and burden of her work was not easy.
In addition, assistant instructors who directly experienced discriminatory treatment from regular instructors often lost their motivation due to a sense of deprivation.
Even if I understood those assistant instructors, I couldn’t help but be unable to attach affection in the end.
But the man was different.
“Like a fool… Why am I crying there?”
As soon as Cho Seo-hyun heard Seong Soo-ho’s words, she was shedding tears without realizing it.
She couldn’t remember when she had ever seen a being acknowledged like that.
Seong Soo-ho’s lines that jumped out without her warning stimulated Seo-hyeon’s inner feelings, and she was shedding tears before she knew it.
After she was caught by the two, she came straight to the dorm and tried to control her feelings, but somehow she didn’t want to.
The first time Seohyun was led by her heart, she waited for Seong Suho in front of the restaurant and then they ate together.
“… Can we eat together tomorrow?”
After Cho Seohyun muttered that, she smiled and buried her face in her pillow.
***
After putting on the VR headgear, I immediately checked the connection status of Seohyun.
‘… Well? I’m not playing games today.’
[Judging from the reaction earlier, I think I might be taking an early break today.]
In the second she ran away, Seohyun came out of the restaurant earlier and waited for Song Ara, and she ate together.
She was completely different from when we had lunch together earlier.
Throughout the meal she did not speak a word.
All she could do was eat quietly and keep glancing at her.
While thinking about Cho Seo-hyun, I laughed without knowing it.
‘It’s really funny.’
[What part are you talking about?]
‘No, it’s funny when I think about it. We haven’t even seen Cho Kang-hyun yet. She hasn’t even talked to him yet, let alone figured out his information, but it’s funny how Seohyun and Seongsoo became quite close in the beginning.’
Yes, there was no problem because the targets were Cho Seo-hyun and Seong Soo-ah.
But at this point, I started to wonder about the face of the guy named Cho Kang-hyeon.
It’s been two weeks since I came to the consulate, and I haven’t seen a strand of Cho Kang-hyun’s hair, despite meeting Seong Soo-ah and Cho Seo-hyun every weekday.
While I was thinking about Super Strong, Armonia suddenly changed the conversation to another topic.
[Suho. I think it would be a good idea to consider changing the time distribution at this opportunity.]
‘Yes? Suddenly?’
It sounded like such an outrageous story.
Suddenly?
However, the reason Armonia brought up this story was related to Cho Kang-hyeon, whom she was talking about just before.
[I think the fact that Cho Kang-hyeon is not appearing could be an opportunity for Suho.]
It was definitely as Armonia said.
Just because Cho Kang-hyeon wasn’t seeing the two women now was no guarantee that she would continue to be.
If we couldn’t meet for a while due to circumstances, and then suddenly meet more often after a month, it would be very difficult for me.
[Yggdrasil is stable anyway, so I wanted to tell you how to focus deeply on Sung Soo-ah and Cho Seo-hyeon.]
‘Well, I guess so. Then I’ll have to come up with a way to get out of Yggdrasil for at least a day.’
She said that in order to spend about two weeks (14 days) at the consulate, she had to create a situation where she could leave at least 34 hours in Yggdrasil.
Or did you openly work at the consulate for more than two days and for three weeks?
‘Because I think about it. I think taking the consulate weekend off was a bit inefficient.’
[That’s right. I don’t know until now, but I think it’s better to coordinate the time so that it gradually leads to a personal meeting.
It may feel like drinking kimchi soup, but if you are going on a date, you must use the weekend unconditionally.
Because the consulate on weekdays is very busy.
Even if it’s not a date, VR games like this will be helpful the longer you spend together on the weekend.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Sung Soo-ah’s voice.
(Are you here?)
..
..
“Ah… Then you won’t be able to come this weekend either.”
“You do it every day, but I’m sorry for making you feel like you’re being cut off in the middle because of me.”
“A! Just enjoy it slowly.”
Sung Soo-ah smiled like that… Stroked my hair
At this point, I started to wonder.
‘Is it possible to have sex in VR?’
It sounded really silly, but I was still curious.
If that’s the case, it’s possible, but if the game software didn’t have that feature, I wondered if I could feel the tactile sensation of the vagina even if I had sex.
And Armonia gave the answer.
[In the case of this animal village game, it is programmed to be possible, but it is set to a lower sensitivity than basic skinship.]
He explained that even lovers in long-distance relationships could engage in sexual activity because it was a game that was targeted and made.
However, since the main purpose of the game is a healthy slow life, the sensitivity of sexual activity is low, and it is said that the genital area is also mosaic-treated.
VR Mosaic, I wanted to experience it once.
‘… No, it must be strange at first, but when I do it, it reminds me of the future me who is cursing me for being a beggar again.’
[….]
99 out of 100 NTL games were mostly mosaic processing.
I still didn’t understand
It’s a game anyway, so why the hell are you doing mosaic processing….
When I was thinking about useless things, Sung Soo-ah smiled and opened her mouth.
“Come to think of it, it’s not long before I pay off the first loan.”
“If I do well, I will pay it off by tomorrow.”
The house Sung Soo-ah and I are living in now was a small cabin.
Originally built for one person, it is a basic residence that is not easy to decorate because it is small in scale.
If the first loan was not paid off, the NPCs would not move in and the basic game would not be able to proceed.
In fact, most people who play this game should have already paid off their first loan and been decorating their town.
However, Sung Soo-ah and I enjoyed the game leisurely together, so the progress was slow.
She is still fishing, but there are many cases where she just waits in this spot even if there is no fish silhouette in front of her.
After chatting quietly like that, it became late today.
“Fish, I will sell it.”
“Oh, you must be bothered every time. This time I….”
“No. Go home first.”
“… Yes.”
I stayed there until Sung Soo-ah’s back disappeared.
And the moment Sung Soo-ah disappeared… I moved carefully.
Clearly, no one was around here.
There were only two special NPCs living in this town right now, but I headed somewhere carefully so that no one would notice.
The place we arrived at was not the hut where Seong Su-ah and I were staying, but a different building.
It was not so neat from the outside, but compared to the cabin, the building gave off the feeling of being a major building….
I went into this lighted building and shouted.
“Bell!! I missed you!!”
[….]
..
..
I muttered as I stroked the fluffy hair on the back of my hand.
“Ha… Ha… Really cute….”
“Thank you!”
Although the artificial intelligence was running fast and was giving me simple answers to what I said, the cuteness didn’t disappear.
If I were a woman like Seong Soo-ah, she might have hugged me and made a fuss.
However, I, who was born as a man, couldn’t possibly go that far and messed around with the back of Bell’s big hand.
‘Wow, it looks like real dog hair. Really good….’
[When you look at it up close, it gives off a feeling of cuteness, but when you look at it from a distance, it gives off a dangerous feeling. You’d better be careful.]
‘….’
Love from up close, sexual harassment from a distance!? Uh!?
As I continued to touch Bell’s furry hand, Armonia started warning me.
[Suho. Five minutes have already passed. It would be better to die soon.]
Haha… Mandible… 1 minute….’
[If Sung Soo-ah comes here….]
Quadang!
The door slammed open and a loud sound echoed through the building.
And there was a woman who rushed in….
“Ha… Ha….”
“….”
I quietly opened her mouth as Seongsu-a, who strode toward me, twitched her eyebrows as she looked down at me.
“Instructor Seong Soo-ho… What are you doing here?”
“That is….”
Overwhelmed by her holy water, I shouted at her comms without being able to make excuses for her.
‘This is all because of Armonia!!’
[….]
