NOVEL NEXT chapter 149
(149)
Is our teacher a genius composer?
It seems that he tried to grab my collar, but he twisted his arm and turned it back.
“Ah!”
“Listen to what people have to say. I was sitting here for a while because it was quiet, but what about sasaeng?”
I think he’s a manager, but he’s a little big, but he doesn’t feel mana, so I don’t think he’s a hunter.
If you’re not a hunter, what kind of guts do you have the guts to not listen to and start with?
“ruler… I was wrong.”
“uh? Perhaps… .”
One of the girls seems to recognize me.
“Ah! sorry, arm… .”
“There was no sign outside, and it’s a bad habit to leave your hand first when you haven’t finished talking.”
At the same time as the warning, I let go of my arms and came out.
Originally, I also wanted to watch the singer, but my interest has cooled.
I expected her to be a celebrity, but I don’t know if she’s particularly pretty.
From my point of view, Sejin or Luciel are much better.
“Mr. Kang? Why is Teacher Kang coming out of there?”
There are teachers who stand on stage today like me, including Mr. Min and Mr. Jung behind him.
“It’s noisy elsewhere and it’s quiet here, so I sat down for a while, but it was said that it was a singer’s waiting room, so I came out.”
“Yes? Singers and teachers decided to write here together… .”
“It wasn’t just for singers.”
“Yes. The tent doesn’t have that much room. Originally, most singers wait in the car, what happened?”
“The manager misunderstood me as a sasaeng fan and tried to grab me by the collar.”
“Yes?”
“Mr. Kang?”
“Wow, that’s crazy.”
“Did you not know Mr. Kang?”
“Hey, Mr. Kang, so how… Is he dead, by any chance?”
Teacher Jeong, who is in charge of swordsmanship in the first year, overdoes it.
“no… Mr. Jung, what are you killing? Whoever hears it will misunderstand. I thought I was a normal person, so I just warned you not to do it in a good way and came out.”
“I think there was a misunderstanding because the delivery wasn’t done properly. let’s go together.”
I thought it would be uncomfortable to go in now and look at it again, so I was going to say it was okay, but I nodded my head.
There was no place to wait anywhere else, and the guitar behind me was too much trouble.
I didn’t do anything wrong in the first place, so there’s no reason to avoid it.
As soon as I entered, my eyes were drawn, but I ignored it and took a seat in the corner.
Mr. Min approaches the manager and talks to him, but the manager comes to me with a shiver.
“Hey, sorry. Earlier, I misunderstood… .”
“Okay, so go.”
I pretend to go with my hand and use my cell phone, but just then I feel a vibration in my arms.
When I took out my phone, it was not a phone call, but a talk.
[Teacher said you were performing. Where are you?]
Sejin is the guy.
I was shy and didn’t say anything… .
[I’m in the waiting room.]
[Waiting room? Isn’t it on the stage in the performance playground?]
[The tent in the back is the waiting room.]
[Ah, it was. Wait.]
It’s just a moment. Are you sure you want to come?
To be honest, during the festival, I was thinking of going around with Sejin and enjoying it, but the cafe was so busy that I couldn’t find time.
There were other teachers and singers, so I was about to send a reply telling them not to come, but the tent opened and Sejin entered.
As soon as she was about to get up, a member of the girl group approached Sejin.
“Sejin!”
At the same time as he speaks, he hugs Sejin… what?
“Sebyeol sister? long time no see. But why is my sister… ?”
“Why, why are you here to perform?”
“Usually singers only come for a short time during performances and don’t use a separate waiting room.”
“I arrived early. I was going to wait in the car, but the heater just broke. Rather, didn’t you graduate? Are you here to see me?”
“Oh, actually, I didn’t know that unnie was performing today, so I came to see the teacher… Sam!”
It’s a bit awkward, but I can’t ignore it, so I got up from my seat.
“Aren’t you home yet?”
“I have to go see the show. They say the teacher is coming, not someone else.”
I think I’m a little bit sulky because I didn’t say anything while talking.
“There will be nothing to see.”
“There is nothing to see. Teacher Kang’s singing was really the best.”
Even Mr. Min sits next to me and talks about when he came.
It was only for a moment, but Sejin definitely frowned.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding something?
“What is the best… It just came out of nowhere.”
“Ah, I don’t think most singers can even show their business cards. Besides, it’s a self-composed song.”
“I made it as a hobby, so don’t take too many planes.”
I didn’t really make it, it’s a song I enjoyed listening to in my previous life, but I keep praising it, so my conscience stings.
“It’s too much. When I went to the cafe earlier, he didn’t even say that we were performing. If the teachers and classmates hadn’t told me, I would have missed it.”
I guess the problem was that I didn’t talk, but I need to turn the conversation topic around.
“I don’t really see anything… Do you know anyone else beside him?”
“Ah, this is Sebyeol older sister. We lived next door since we were young, so we were close. Sebyeol unnie, do you know our teacher?”
“ah… hello. There were a lot of mistakes earlier. We misunderstood… .”
“Are you wrong?”
“When I came here earlier, I saw that he was alone, so I mistook my manager oppa for being a sasaeng fan… .”
“Are you mistaken?”
“I was trying to explain no, but they suddenly tried to grab me by the collar.”
“Yes? You stabbed the teacher?” It’s a look of surprise.
“I was trying to catch it. Don’t worry, I’m not caught.”
“Of course it is. Is he alive?”
“No, what would I have killed then? I cleared the misunderstanding well and got an apology, so don’t worry about it.”
To be honest, I still don’t like it that much, but I literally received an apology, and there is an unnie who is close to Sejin among the members, so I can’t take it as an issue.
“My manager oppa is a bit impatient, so I apologize once again. sorry.”
“it’s okay. I already received an apology.”
“By the way, are you singing today? When I heard the person next to me earlier, they said it was their own song… .”
“No big deal.”
I didn’t want to talk for a long time, so I just cut it off and left the tent with Sejin.
As we were talking, Mr. Min appeared, and it seemed like it was time for the performance to begin.
After sending Sejin away and returning to the tent to prepare, it was my turn before I knew it.
“The next order was prepared by the most handsome teacher at our Hunter 1 School. Do you know who Jiyeon is?”
“Of course I know. If you don’t know that teacher at Hunter 1 School, you’re a spy.”
“Appearance is appearance, ability is ability… According to what I heard from my juniors in the second year, I am looking forward to hearing that you are really good at singing.”
“Sir Kang Shin-hyeok, please come out!”
I feel like my hands and feet will disappear at the comments of the students who are in charge of the host.
Since the scale of the festival is comparable to that of a university festival, a professional moderator will be used as the moderator.
If that were the case, such a comment would not have come out… .
I sigh once and go up to the stage, and I hear cheers.
People seem to have a lot more than they thought.
I already experienced it at last year’s retreat, so I thought it would be okay, but I’m a little nervous when it comes up.
However, I practiced a lot and the reaction to the rehearsal earlier was not bad.
Even if it’s not 100%, you can do it as much as then.
“Nice to meet you. I am Kang Shin-hyeok, the homeroom teacher for Class 10 in Year 2.”
“Good looks!”
“Ooh, yu, light, kal, Kang Shin-hyeok!”
“Sa, rang, do, yo, Kang Shin-hyeok!”
The guys from the swordsmanship class and the guys from my class.
The guys in my class must have been busy with cafes, but they even made placards.
I’m grateful for my heart, but my face is too hot.
“The song I want to hear is called ‘Sunflower’. It wasn’t intentional, it was pushed out of the back, so please understand if you can’t do it a little.”
Laughter bursts out here and there, as if asking for understanding at the end was funny.
I even put insurance on it, so I started singing along with the performance without delay.
The song prepared this time is a song by SC Wannabe, which I liked as much as Muzz.
[You are my sun
you are my happiness
only one person
Even if it rains, I’ll be with you
my one and only love
sing a sweet song
make your eyes smile
If I kiss you on the cheek, you won’t see me
I always want to see you
I just remembered
You laughed at the clumsy excuse
oh you are my sun
you are my love
only one person
Even if it rains, I’ll be with you
my one and only love
Oh oh, anyone in the world, anyone
I can’t do it instead of her
I only have her
I really love you
I was in the same direction
In fact, you have to go the exact opposite way.
It was just as good because we were together
At your words to buy me new shoes
maybe you’ll leave
Every time I said I would buy it next time
oh you are my sun
you are my goddess
only one person
My one and only person who will greet me even if it rains
Oh oh, anyone in the world, anyone
I can’t do it instead of her
I only have her
I really love you
I want to be like a sunflower
To you, who is everything to me
will you trust me
I want to believe it
I’ll give you everything
more than anyone else in the world
because i love you
Oh, a hundred years, a thousand years, a thousand years, until the end of the world
I will only look at you
thank you for being my girl
so happy
Love you]

“Wow, isn’t the song really good?”
“Yeah. Is this really your own song?”
“Isn’t it really great? I thought that female teacher was overdoing it earlier, but it’s no joke.”
“He has a good-looking face, good skills, and even a song… . I think I would have succeeded even as a real singer.”
“Didn’t I say it was made as a hobby? If I catch each and make it, I will sweep the money.”
I am of the same opinion as the children.
I didn’t expect it at first because they asked me to understand even if I couldn’t do it, but the song was better than I thought.
The first song called Sunflower was good, but this ‘Journey to You’, which is being sung as an encore request from the audience, is really thrilling.
“Ah, you’re an S-rank hunter, would you like to be a singer?”
“Well, if you’re an S-rank hunter, you wouldn’t be interested in this at all.”
I was going to put some words on it, but the kids are right.
It is said that the teacher’s income at the Hunter School is quite small compared to the Hunters in the Guild, but it is only when the comparison target is a normal Hunter.
Even being an A-rank hunter earns hundreds of millions of dollars a month, but Kang Shin-hyeok is not an A-rank hunter, he is an S-rank hunter.
There is even a saying that an S-rank hunter is a walking medium-sized company.
So, even with that kind of talent, you must be doing it as a hobby.
That look, that ability, that talent.
God seems so unfair.
“Sang-cheol’s brother?”
“brother?”
“uh? Why?”
“It is our turn. I said I’m going.”
“Oh yeah. go and come.”
“Very, stunned. Did you like the song?”
“Stop talking nonsense and go. Make no mistake.”
I approached Kang Shin-hyeok, who was coming down after sending the children up.
I made a mistake earlier and the first impression won’t be good, but this rough diamond… No, I met a diamond, but I can’t just leave it alone.
It would be difficult to debut directly, but if I could receive even just a song, it would be of great help.
* * *
I was quite nervous at first, but as I sang it, I naturally relaxed and I think I sang pretty well.
The response was great, and thanks to that, the tension went up a bit, and we even had an unexpected encore.
After the encore was over, Mr. Min sent a sign from the bottom saying it would be okay to add one more song, but the encore was over.
I didn’t even have a song in mind.
After finishing the song, I came down and a little shy raised my head.
But now that I think it’s really over, my heart feels lighter.
Now, I’m going to watch it with a comfortable mind, but the manager who quarreled with me earlier approaches.
“Hey, Kang Shin-hyuk… .”
“What is it? If it happened earlier, it really happened.”
“I want to talk about something other than that, but can you give me a minute?”
