65. Her tears no longer reach her.

Song Min-ah, her father was like a huge rock. He is an existence that can’t do anything even if he crushes himself. That was the father she felt. Song Min-cheol was the guild leader of a high-level guild called Wiggrove, and his power was quite strong.

Above all, Song Min-cheol was her father through blood. Because of her father’s fear, which was so strongly imprinted on her from her childhood, it was hard for her to dare to think of defying him head-on.

I didn’t trust anyone because I didn’t trust people. He sometimes felt disgusted with himself, but he did his best to keep those feelings under control. Because there was no other option anyway.

However, after meeting Choi Joo-won, she changed her mind.

– You did nothing wrong. There’s no need to feel guilty. If there’s something you want to do in the future, do it to your heart’s content. I will help you. If there is something difficult, tell me and I will listen to everything. Am i an instructor? It is natural to help students when they are struggling.

.

.

.

-Instructor, can I live like a normal person?”

-Of course not. I will help you.

Choi Joo-won told Song Min-ah that she would help, believe in herself.

“Keuheuuheugh…”

Minah Song shed tears without realizing it. The more she remembered her conversation with him, the more she missed those warm words.

After the day Choi Joo-won promised Song Min-a to help, the two began to get close quickly.

Then one day, Joo-Won Choi talked to Min-A Song.

-Minah, thank you for telling me about your father. It would have taken a lot of time to talk about your concerns. From your point of view, I think I was able to tell you about your worries because you thought I was someone you could trust. So glad

That day, she showed a weak appearance unlike Choi Joo-eun and told Song Min-ah.

-Actually, there were many things that were difficult for me too. It may not seem like that, but I didn’t have many people I could trust, and there weren’t many people who believed in me. So thank you Just knowing that someone believes in me is a great strength.

-The instructor… Must have had a lot of hard work… If there is anything you want to talk about, please tell us. I’ll listen to anything!

-It’s okay, later, later, when your situation gets better, I’ll tell you my story then.

-I… I can still listen…!

-Instead of listening to me right now, promise me one thing. You’ll believe in me no matter what, that’s enough.

Minah Song asked questions about her doubts.

-Can you believe me? Do you have any doubts about someone who behaves as well as you do?

-Well… I don’t know about that, it’s just that. I was talking about it just in case. It’s just my vague wish. Such hope.

Song Mina nodded her head and spoke.

-Of course. Instructor. I’ll trust you no matter what. The instructors I have seen so far are great people both as human beings and as instructors.

“Keuheugh…”

Minah Song recalled the conversation she had with Juwon Choi. What Choi Joo-won wanted was trust and trust. Choi Joo-won seemed to need someone to rely on.

Song Min-ah, she may not have known it, but since Choi Joo-won was possessed by the game world, there was no one she could properly trust and rely on.

He was far from his parents, acquaintances, and her friends, who were as natural as breathing, and the word that her student, Min-ah Song, believed in him felt like a big echo.

‘Even here… There are people who need me and depend on me, there are people I can trust…’

After being possessed, Choi Joo-won’s mind was in a state of considerable wear and tear, rolling around like a dog in a world where only force had the highest value.

That’s why it was such a great comfort for Choi Joo-won to have someone who believed in him and depended on him.

‘A person who can trust me no matter what. With just one person like that, you can survive in this crazy world.’

After that, Joo-Won Choi taught Min-A Song sincerely.

-Min-ah, your mana becomes particularly unstable when you use water magic. I will give you an artifact, so practice with it.

We generously supported Song Mina with expensive artifacts without any cost,

-Minah, did you and your father have any problems today? If anything happens, tell me, and I’ll help as far as I can get my hands on it.

I didn’t care that her father was a high-ranking guild and promised to support me.

– Instructor… It’s so… So hard…

Occasionally, when Song Min-ah was tired and struggling with various things, Choi Joo-won sincerely sympathized with her situation and comforted her.

-Instructor, would you like to go out today? I’m very depressed…

She was willing to give her what she wanted.

As time passed, the relationship of trust between Song Min-ah and Choi Joo-won deepened.

Her problems with her father also faded. Her father was active in a high-ranking guild, and many things happened, and little by little, her Song Min-a had no time to care about her. It would be more accurate to say that the matter was put on hold.

Suddenly, Song Min-ah and Choi Joo-won formed a strong bond as person-to-person rather than lecturer and student.

I don’t know Mina Song, but what Joowon Choi felt was not a feeling like love. Someone you can trust, someone you really want to protect. Song Min-ah had become that kind of person to Choi Joo-won.

However, everything fell apart the day she left Helmund Academy.

-Ah..No..Isn’t it me?

The moment Choi Joo-won was questioned for her false accusation. Choi Joo-won had looked into the eyes of Song Min-ah, among her numerous people.

-Hwiik

But Mina Song avoided her eyes.

Song Min-ah had no choice but to avoid Joo-won Choi’s eyes. If she defended her here, if the story of her advocacy spreads, her father will surely find out about her relationship with Joo-Won Choi.

No, maybe this is an excuse. Song Min-ah was not sure. 0.1% Mind.

Perhaps… Could it be that the real Joo-Won Choi logged on? That kind of doubt remained weak in her mind.

The reason is that Choi Joo-won was such a perfect person. Many times I thought it was absurd that someone of that level of ability could act so kindly and live for others in this goddamn world.

Rather, he was so perfect that she doubted him.

Of course, it was a very short time. After Joo-Won Choi left, she recalled her memories with him, and said that Joo-Won Choi couldn’t be like that. .

But by then it was already too late. My father had seen the text message, so I had to send harsh words to Joo-Won Choi.

She knows too. He knew that it was too late for him, how much it would have hurt him to doubt even for a moment the person who had been so good to him.

If she had been a little faster… She would have been by his side by now, if she hadn’t looked away from Choi Joo-won when he met her eyes. .. Thinking so, she wept endlessly.

-Hwiik

Song Mina still remembers. Choi Joo-won, who complained of her regrets and shouted at people.

-I… I really didn’t do it… Please… Please believe me…

When she avoided his eyes as she screamed as if crying, she saw Joo-Won Choi, who was looking around in a state of despair.

On that day, Choi Joo-won lost everyone he trusted.

“Keuheugh…”

Song Mina regretted it. What if she trusted Joo-Won Choi without paying attention to her father?

What if, before dinner, she texted him without delay.

Or, what if I knew in advance that Joo-Won Choi had such great power?

Perhaps the situation would have been very different from now.

“Ahhhhh…”

Song Min-ah ran out at once, and she wanted to grab onto the crotch of his trousers. But her legs didn’t move as if they were frozen. Because Choi Joo-won said it. We are strangers now, please don’t pretend to know me.

-Jeobeok, Jeobeok, Jeobeok

Minah Song’s ears were filled with only the sound of Joowon Choi walking.

-Jeobeok, Jeobeok

The sound of Joo-Won Choi’s footsteps echoing near Min-Cheol Song, who had fallen behind.

Song Min-ah felt sorry for Choi Joo-won. She regretted that she did not immediately trust the person who had done her best for her, making excuses of this and that.

-Jerbuck

Nevertheless, she foolishly expected. As the sound of her footsteps came closer to her, she seemed to say that Choi Joo-won would forgive her, and she would smile as usual and tell me that it was okay and trust me.

-Jerbuck

It’s a really stupid wish, but please, I earnestly hoped that you would forgive me just this once, this once.

There is no father who binds him now. Father has lost his power, so he doesn’t have to pay attention like before.

If given another chance, even if it meant taking her own life, she would remain by his side unyielding under any circumstances. I’ve done that hundreds of times.

-Hwiik

However, Joo-Won Choi just passed Min-A Song.

As Choi Joo-won said the other day, he passed by with the attitude of treating strangers.

“Keuheugh…”

“Ugh…”

Mina Song cried. She was saddened and she wept.

When she cried, Choi Joo-won often stroked her hair. She patted her if it was okay. He comforted her by wiping away her tears.

However, her tears did not reach Choi Joo-won anymore.

***

– Jeobeok Jeobeok

Choi Joo-won walked with the fallen Song Min-cheol behind her.

Eventually, as we approached the gate, Min Hwa-yeon, who had been waiting for her, came to Choi Ju-won and lowered her head and talked.

“Sorry. You may not believe it, but Song Min-cheol forced us to join us. We are no longer affiliated with Wegrove. So please have mercy on me just this once.”

Choi Joo-won tilted her head and asked a question.

“Do you not resent me even though I killed nearly 100 of my comrades?”

Minhwayeon lowered her head and spoke.

“We tried to kill you, innocent of any crime, first. Even then, it would be shameless to resent you. Please, if you save me just once, I will not forget this grace.”

Minhwayeon swallowed her saliva and came right in front of Choi Joowon.

Choi Joo-won seemed to be thinking about it for a while, and then she answered with a smile.

“I couldn’t help it. That sounds great. But put yourself in my shoes and think about it. What do you think would have happened if I had been powerless or weak?”

“…”

Minhwayeon kept her mouth shut and bowed her head. She had no words even ten of her mouths could utter. If Choi Joo-won had been weak, he would have been a corpse by now.

Joo-Won Choi spoke.

“I would have been dead. By the time you entered the gate and started casting spells, I would have turned to dust and disappeared. I would have died without even being able to scream properly.”

“Really…Really… Sorry…”

-Sueuk

Choi Joo-won stretched out her arm toward Minhwa-yeon.

“I tried to kill an innocent person, but I couldn’t help it. Are you done saying you’re sorry? If I were weaker than you, I would have been trampled to death like a bug.”

[Blizzard]

-Hwieeeing

Choi Joo-won developed S-class magic in an instant. All around was filled with cold.

– Flinch

Others tried to move, but Minhwayeon raised her hand to restrain her.

“Don’t move…”

More than 100 wizards were watching Minhwayeon with nervous expressions.

-Tup

Joo-Won Choi spoke while holding Min Hwa-Yeon by the neck.

“You guys tried to kill me first, the reason I didn’t die is because I was stronger than you.”

Choi Joo-won looked around at the magicians around him and said coldly.

“Tell me why I have to save you guys.”
