The Golden Sun of the Academy

Chapter 69

Hongdae(1)

Right after Kang Ha-neul hung up the phone with Geum Tae-yang.

I tried to calm my beating heart. However, it did not calm down easily, and she soon gave up and wandered around the room thinking about it.

“… … Hongdae?!”

It was an unfamiliar name to Kang Ha-neul.

The address of her aunt’s house where she lives is Incheon. Like any other child, as a middle school student, the only experience outside the neighborhood was near Gwanak, Seoul, where the academy is located.

I heard about Hongdae’s great name.

According to what I overheard classmates talking about and information on the Internet, it’s a dating place that adult college students like to visit, and it’s a mecca for youth… … .

‘Dating place?!’

Kang Ha-neul blushed when he found himself strangely giving meaning to the location selection of the golden sun.

It is not easy for humans to stop the happiness circuit once it starts running. Even Kang Ha-neul could not escape from that category.

‘Did Taeyang finally recognize it?’

Wandering around the room, wiggling her fingers, she immediately settled down in front of a computer on one side of the room. It was possible to search on a smartphone, but it was difficult to see the image view on such a small screen.

Hongdae Street

drooling. The street that I scrolled through at once was a perfect downtown. People are very crowded around the shopping district. It was the exact opposite of what I expected to have an intimate date with Geum Taeyang, but what can I do now that I have already decided on a place.

‘Dating in the city must have its own charm, right?’

Come to think of it, it wasn’t bad.

‘I can’t pack lunch… … .’

Since it was in the middle of the city, it was obvious to buy something to eat. Even so, Kang Ha-neul did not stop searching. Even though Geum Taeyang promised to guide her, it was because the picture of herself finding a restaurant in advance and buying it for him looked pretty good.

what to eat The moment she raised her expectations with pleasant imaginations, a thought passed through her mind.

Listening to what Taeyang Geum said, he seemed to know the Hongdae area quite well.

‘My brother didn’t know about this… … . How well does Taeyang oppa know… … ?’

Haneul’s hand, which was dragging the mouse around, stopped.

The high-pitched hum that had been heard during the call came to mind. Recalling the sound flowing softly with a woman’s soft tone, Haneul’s eyes trembled for a moment.

Could it be that you have been with other women before me? Like last time, I always saw him surrounded by women… … .

A cold sweat runs down the white nape of the sky. Feeling the chill in her hands and feet, Haneul shook her head to get rid of her thoughts.

When I shook my head enough to make my long straight hair flutter, only then did the bad imagination fly away.

‘Let’s not think strangely.’

I held onto my shaking head for a while and decided to search for a restaurant calmly. Even if I thought about it, it only hurt my feelings, but it didn’t really change anything. There… … .

‘If Taeyang hadn’t been interested at all, he wouldn’t have said he would come out at all.’

When I changed my mind like this, I felt much more comfortable and at the same time I felt my tense muscles relax. The cold sweat on the nape of my neck disappeared before I knew it, and my hands and feet were warm again.

She sighed, returned her attention to the monitor, and started browsing the Internet.

‘however… … . What shall we eat?’

Kang Ha-neul, who is good at this and that, was rather worried about this. Because I didn’t know Taeyang’s taste in food at all. Shouldn’t you have asked me what you like?

Kang Ha-neul, who felt hungry thinking about something to eat, got up from his seat and went to the kitchen. After a while, she came back from the kitchen and in her hands was a piece of gimbap with cracks on the sides.

Anastasia and Chevalier instantly came to her mind as she opened her small mouth and tried to put the gimbap in her mouth.

Kang Ha-neul, who recalled the two of them with a violent appearance to the same sex, looked down at the gimbap for a moment. There are cracks everywhere, but the black seaweed covering the outside is glistening with oil.

Sitting in a chair, I leaned my head back and looked at my watch.

-09:24 PM. fury.

It was still early to sleep, but late to eat.

“… … won’t you gain weight? I won’t stab you.”

Kang Ha-neul picked up the gimbap and eventually put it in his mouth. The stomach, which had been twisting with hunger, finally calms down. yes good to eat If I hadn’t eaten, I would have been so hungry that I couldn’t sleep.

“Not bad.”

Although the appearance was bizarre, the taste was quite good.

She continued her search while eating the gimbap she held in her right hand.

The more she searched, the more Haneul’s cheeks turned red, and her anticipation grew, not knowing how high the sky was.

There was a light pink band wrapped around the left hand of Haneul, who was pounding hard on the keyboard.

* * *

It’s been three days since I met Anya on the road at night and the day I made an appointment with Haneul in Hongdae. My teammates and I have already played one qualifier match so far, and we are currently in the final qualifier match.

As I looked away for a moment, the blue blade of the dagger passed in front of my eyes. Immediately, he lifted his knee to the opponent’s stomach, where his body leaned forward, and put a knee kick.

“Uh-billion!”

The opponent who had been coughing for a while didn’t fall down, so he hit an additional elbow on the back of the head. Only then did he flip the egg white over and peel it off, and it turned over finely.

I’m going to fall out soon… … .

I expressed my condolences in my heart to the opponent who was beaten for no reason.

Looking around, no one in our team has retired. Instead, all five members of the opposing team, including the one we just defeated, are sprawled on the floor.

I felt like I moved a little rough to test how much my skills had improved, but I was satisfied.

At the start of the game, 2 out of 5 players lay down on my hands. The other two were taken care of by the team, and it took an emotional effort to subdue this last guy because he was a particularly annoying runaway.

I didn’t even use the sword, but that’s about it.

The audience is silent. If an overwhelming result comes out, this is the reaction. They want an even fight, and they are not enthusiastic about a bland game where one side is overwhelming. Rather, the scouts liked this kind of game. Because we were able to pick out notable newcomers.

He sighed and sighed.

Since there are so many students, it is already the 3rd qualifying round.

Leaving behind the 5 enemy team members lying on the floor, I walked in the direction of my teammates.

The collar of a shirt that was loosely dragged in the wind fluttered. The reactions of the team members behind the scenes were different. Andrew gave his usual thumbs up, and Chevalier said, ‘That’s how I’ll get a man.’ and shakes his head.

Their reaction didn’t last for a day or two, so from my point of view, there was nothing special about it.

What I care about are the other two.

Anya and Kang Hyuk.

Originally, Anya should have smiled and smiled, but she raised her eyes softly as if she was thinking about something.

Her expression was a little bit less artificial than it had been, and it was still stiff, but natural.

To be honest, this one looks much better. It seems that the jokes you’ve been playing with have worked in a surprisingly good way.

Conversely, Kang Hyuk… … .

His expression was dark. With a dark expression, he even mumbles to himself whether he’s talking to Yeriel, to the point where he’s reluctant to get close to the gloomy atmosphere.

Kang Hyuk, who muttered to himself for a while, soon relaxed his expression and put on a determined expression, as if he had been comforted by Yeriel.

Looking at it, I made a promise. I will be careful when using the Ego Sword in the future.

The person using this can have a conversation, so it doesn’t seem to be aware of it… … .

Looking at it from the side, it’s honestly scary. No, beyond scary, it’s bizarre. If you ever need to use Yeriel later, just ignore her words and shut up.

He has a striking appearance, but he even mumbles to himself? It is a social store.

I cleared all the troublesome schedules until the finals.

Hearing the final siren, we headed out of the arena.

* * *

after the match.

Anya sighed as she put the AK from her back into the suitcase in the waiting room at the stadium. All the boys had already left, leaving Chevalier and the two to help each other disarm the equipment.

Geum Taeyang is going to Hongdae tomorrow… … . When I tried to follow it, I was stumped.

It is absurd to follow the golden sun with a promise from the beginning. If he did that, Golden Sun might hate him, so he immediately erased the plan from his mind.

In the meantime, Anya, who had always unconsciously relied on Golden Sun, had no confidence when she tried to do something by herself.

“… … .”

As she sighed heavily and pondered what to do, she heard Chevalier’s sweet voice in her ears.

“No Yang, are you worried?”

“Uh, huh?! no.”

Anya, who had been pulling the armor mechanically with her heart in the bean field, shook her head as if she hadn’t noticed.

“Really?”

Chevalier’s eyes narrowed at Anya’s violent whipping. Chevalier blocked Anya’s hand, which was unlocking the armor, and looked away.

“huh… … . Really. I’m not really worried… … .”

“But no, it’s written on both faces? I am worried.”

Watching Chevalier speak with a bashful smile, Anya pondered for a moment. It was because the atmosphere was strange to explain this right now.

No, I wasn’t even sure if this was the right thing to worry about.

Looking at Anya, who was anxiously averting her gaze, not knowing where to put her pupils, Chevalier took a step closer to her. Then, holding her hands tightly, she said quietly.

“It’s not me, I’m also providing counseling for sheep-like people.”

“uh… … ?”

“If you are tired, come to the church. I will listen to your worries.”

“… … really?”

Looking at Anya’s round eyes, Chevalier closed one eye and said,

“of course. Is the grace of the Lord open to anyone?”

To Anya, the voice sounded like an angelic hymn.

The evening after all the preliminary rounds were over. Chevalier was holding evening prayers in the church located near the main building of the academy.

The outside of the cathedral was blessed with magical engineering and was as bright as daytime even though it was night, but the cathedral was different.

The weak light from silver candlesticks attached to the wall gently drives away the darkness in the church. Chevalier sat in the middle of the front row of chairs inside the church, clasped his hands tightly and muttered,

“The name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. amen. Lord, take a closer look at the sins committed in your thoughts, words, and actions today and the sins of neglecting your duties, and help you realize the sins that have become a habit among them. … .”

She was stunned to see herself muttering in French, not French, but in Korean without realizing it. It’s been several months since I came here, and I’m already used to it, so my body responds to Korean first.

But what does language mean in front of the Lord? You just have to get through your heart. She soon calmed down and continued to pray.

It started with a simple prayer, followed by an evening prayer after the meal, and it was a confession about the violence caused by the team match today.

“father. I knocked out one of my classmates today. Even though it was my job at school… … .”

In the middle of her long prayer.

– Kikii profit.

The church door opened with the sound of an old hinge twisting my body. Chevalier, who had been praying, quietly finished his prayer and looked back.

The wooden door made of old wood was half open, but no one was in sight.

“… … Who are you?”

No one comes to visit us at this time of day… … .

She immediately remembered the story of the voyeur that she had heard from Brother and Sister Kang Hyuk, and reflexively grabbed the silver candlestick placed on the cathedral podium with both hands.

The silver candlestick in her hand shone like a trident.

Chevalier’s hand holding the silver candlestick was sweaty. How many boring standoffs have there been?

“… … Lee? Here it is?”

Anya poked her head through the crack in the open door.

Seeing her platinum hair, Chevalier sighed and hid the silver candlestick behind her back.
