I Picked Up the Hero and the Demon King

20 – A New Beginning (6)

Lee Seo-jin was taken aback by Yoo Seo-eun’s words as the three of them were suddenly moved to look at themselves.

I just cut my hair a few times and shaved my beard, but from an old man to an older brother.

Because I didn’t know how to say the word “Chosun” Because Han Soo-jung was also accompanying me.

“Wait a minute… oppa. Are you kidding me?”

Lee Seo-jin smiled and asked a question, wondering if she was joking, but she couldn’t hide her awkwardness.

However, despite her awkwardness, her sister, who is concentrating on her overflowing charm, shook her head with her eyes shining.

“No! I’ll call you that. No! I’ll call you that.”

“Me too…! I want to call you brother, not uncle!”

A request that reflects her strong will.

Feeling her sincerity, Lee Seo-jin was even more flustered, and she found someone to help.

Fortunately, Han Soo-jung must have been swept away for a moment.

“Ahahahaha… Guys. Calm down. Calm down. I can’t come to my senses because the sunbae has changed so much.”

“Huh? Does it look like that to you?”

Lee Seo-jin asked a question to Han Su-jeong, who was nervous while talking sparsely.

“…Yes. Uh. Very…”

Then, Han Soo-jeong touched her lips and turned her shy face, then turned her head away.

She replied in a small voice, nodding her head slightly, not looking her in the eyes, as if she had met her ideal type.

She was a little displeased, but her sister looked at her understandingly and she nodded her head without saying anything.

“Hmm… I don’t know.”

Of course, it didn’t mean much to a man who has built a wall with his appearance for 34 years.

He just ignored his change, saying that it was simply shaving his beard and wearing a suit.

On the contrary, this degree of change was to the point of raising even the absurd question of whether everyone else was doing it.

The owner, who enjoyed watching this spectacle, suggested one thing because it was regrettable that it would end with a simple happening.

“Let’s go~ It seems that you guys like it. Why don’t you try on other outfits instead?”

“Yes? A different outfit?”

I didn’t want to be told to try on a suit, so I had a feeling that I was forced to wear it, but what else do I wear here?

I tried to say no to the offer, but there were three people who moved ahead of me.

“That sounds great!”

“I feel the same way!”

“It’s different clothes… I’m looking forward to seeing what you will look like?”

“Ah. No. Wait…!”

Three people smiling with selfish eyes.

On the other hand, there was also an earnest gaze.

Lee Seo-jin, who had something to say, but couldn’t overcome the burdensome gaze, had no choice but to follow.

“…Other clothes, please.”

After that, the Lee Seojin fashion show was held unintentionally.

The three of them and Lee Seo-jin had a good time while taking pictures and taking pictures together.

Of course, it was the first time for Lee Seo-jin, and it was hard work because it didn’t fit the spirit.

So the fashion show ended in the afternoon when the sun was slowly setting.

“Hmm… I don’t know if I can accept something like this.”

“It’s okay~! It’s the first time I’ve seen senpai’s cool side, so shouldn’t I repay you?”

“No. I think I’ll have to repay you…”

“So, think of it as a thank you for spending time with me today.”

He originally intended to reciprocate himself, but when the words came out of someone else’s mouth, Lee Seo-jin felt strange.

“Didn’t you buy too much?”

“I heard that you don’t have clothes for seniors anyway? Let’s call it a present.”

Shoes, shoes, coats, shirts, etc. It was Han Su-jeong who bought everything that would suit Lee Seo-jin.

Thanks to this, it was Lee Seo-jin holding a vinyl and paper bag with both hands full.

The sisters also had something in their hands, but this was bought by Lee Seo-jin, not Han Soo-jung.

“Okay. I’ll wear it well. I don’t know if I’ll wear nice clothes like this…”

“Be sure to wear it! If you don’t wear it, it’s a penalty! And beard care!”

“Ummm… ok.”

Lee Seo-jin nodded, keeping in mind that he must cut his beard even if he didn’t know his hair.

“Then go in.”

“You go in carefully too.”

Holding her carefully and not dropping what was in her hand, Han Soo-jung said goodbye to Lee Seo-jin and her sister.

※

After seeing the back of her completely leaving, Sujeong Han got in the car and returned home.

But as soon as she got home and entered the room, she immediately threw herself on the bed.

“…Whoops. Whoops…!”

Han Soo-jung, who buried her face in the bed and let out a meaningful laugh, recalled what happened today.

Lee Seo-jin’s completely unexpected face. She

A sister who is pretty enough to consider her a rival.

Although Ilhee and Ilbi had mixed thoughts and feelings, her thoughts about Lee Seojin worked a little better.

Sujeong Han suddenly had an old idea of her.

She didn’t take care of herself, so her beard was always there and when she was very serious she looked homeless.

When she saw that, she sighed, and after that she shaved herself… The beard was still on Lee Seo-jin’s face.

Of course, Lee Seo-jin’s liking for Han Soo-jung did not change, whether or not she had a beard. She

She had a dignified charm if she didn’t shave her beard, but she just expected that she would look more handsome if she shaved it off.

But she shaved and she now realizes that her thoughts and guesses she did then were absurdly stupid.

“…hehehe. Senpai~ Seriously, what would you do if you changed so coolly~”

Han Soo-jung got up from the bed and went to her desk.

There were several pictures related to Lee Seo-jin on the desk.

After she became a member of the same team, there are pictures taken to commemorate her, and pictures taken with her other team members while having dinner after activities, and so on.

Among them, a picture of just the two of us, clearly trying not to take pictures, caught my eye.

I took out my cell phone and contrasted the pictures of just the two of us.

Sujeong Han smiled.

I hope you will have a lot of time together for a long time in the future.

※

After returning home, I started organizing the clothes I received.

Fortunately, I didn’t have a lot of clothes before, so I was able to put all the clothes I received.

After that, after almost cleaning up, I went out to drink water for a while, and Yoo Soo-ah called me from the kitchen.

“Tada~ How are you? Oppa?”

“Huh? Uh… That’s…”

“hehehe. How is it? Does it look good? Didn’t you like asking me to buy it earlier?”

Putting on the apron I bought for her, Sua Yoo smiled at her lips.

I felt a bit nervous because it didn’t suit me, and I hurriedly praised it because it suited me so well.

“It suits you so well!”

“hehehe. Is that so? I’m glad…”

Perhaps the compliment was good to hear, Soo-ah Yoo smiled shyly, feeling a bit embarrassed.

She didn’t know why she asked to buy an apron, but she bought it for this.

… By the way, are they good at cooking?

She

She didn’t spend much time together, but she was puzzled because I’d never seen her cook.

“Brother! How am I? Do you look good?”

“Huh?”

As she looked at Yoo Soo-ah and praised her, Jill Sarah Yoo Seo-eun approached me and leaned her body forward and asked.

“Oh…!”

“Hmm~ I can understand without saying it. It suits you well, doesn’t it?”

“Yes. I see.”

“hehehe…”

Similarly, Yu Seo-eun was also a little shy and lowered her head.

“But why did you buy that?”

“Why buy it! Of course I bought it to cook in the future!”

“Yo. Cooking?”

“Why do you do that? Can’t you believe us?”

“Ah. No. It’s not like that… How can I say it. I’ve never seen it cooked before.”

“hehehe. I knew you would say that. So I’m going to show you this evening.”

“Evening? It’s still early…”

“Get ready, get ready! We have something to think about too. Oppa.”

Looking at the confident Yoo Seo-eun and the smiling Yoo Soo-ah, I felt a little bit suspicious.

Have you ever had time to cook?

If there was, I wanted to ask when did you start cooking, but I thought it would be better for you to trust me now.

… But you guys really call me oppa.

Okay… Let’s move on.

Whether it’s uncle or brother, calling something is calling…

“Okay. I’ll look forward to it.”

The sisters smiled and nodded, fighting vigorously.

After that, as time passed and evening approached, her sisters moved busily.

The menu that came out after cooking was none other than curry.

However, it didn’t seem like normal curry.

Peppers, carrots, potatoes, meat, etc. Were cut into pieces that were easy to eat, and the smell was particularly good.

I was naturally amazed at the quality that I could sell at any restaurant.

“Did you guys make this…?”

Looking at the sisters with surprised eyes, the two replied with a hearty smile.

“hehehehe! I can do this much~!”

“Since I was young, I had to cook by myself. As a result, I gradually improved. hehehe.”

“I see…”

It seemed like a simple phrase, but somehow it seemed to have a lot of meaning in it.

“Come on, try it. Oppa.”

“Hurry up!”

“Okay. Then…”

After putting my hands together and saying a prayer of thanks, I ate it with a spoon.

Spicy yet slightly sweet taste.

Vegetables and meat blended with the curry to bring out the flavor.

The softly cooked rice created a fantastic harmony.

“Wow… That’s great?! You guys really made this?”

“Yes. Whoops.”

“We are good at something too!”

As soon as they ate, admiration naturally came out, and when they praised the sisters, the two of them averted their gaze, as if they were a little embarrassed.

“Come on, you eat too. It’s really delicious.”

“Yes.”

“I will eat well!”

The sisters sat across from Lee Seo-jin and started eating.

“Ah. That’s right.”

Lee Seo-jin looked at her sister, and then she went into her room to see if she remembered something.

Two boxes of what appeared to be finely wrapped presents were placed on the table.

“Sua. Seo Eun-ah.”

“Yes. Why? Brother?”

“What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing special. It’s a gift.”

“A gift…?”

“Yes. A Christmas present.”

Puzzled by the first Christmas present she had ever received, her sister took it.

After looking closely, she sent her eyes to Lee Seo-jin to see if it was okay to open it.

She signaled that she was okay with a nod of her head, and the confirmed sister hurriedly opened the package.

And what was inside the package… It was none other than a scarf.

“This is… a scarf”

“What kind of scarf is that?”

“It’s winter and I don’t think I have a scarf. I bought it while thinking of you guys, is it okay?”

The embroidery on the scarf was in harmony with the eyes and hair color of the sisters who were gifted each.

The two looked at each other while tying their scarves.

A lot of emotions crossed my mind at this moment.

She had so many things she wanted to say, but she decided to say only what she most wanted to say.

At the same time as if we made an appointment.

“”Thank you!””

Lee Seo-jin smiled and stroked the heads of her two sisters as she looked at herself with her eyes wide open as if she were about to shed tears.

“Let’s get along well in the future.”

“Yes!”

“Yes!”

December 25th. Christmas.

The 15-year-old and 13-year-old girls who were born in misfortune and lived in despair are over.

It was the day when 16-year-old and 14-year-old girls had a new start.

※

A small abandoned building in a slum.

This place was now surrounded and controlled by heroes and cops.

It’s already a slum in a corner, but the current location is so deep that I didn’t know it at all.

While I was guarding it, someone appeared and a hero greeted me.

“Ah. Kim Ho-yeon, team leader 1. Are you here?”

“Yes.”

There is only one Hero Management Association building with a distance in each specific area.

In addition, each team was managed separately, and there were ranks here as well.

Team 1 is the highest, then Team 2, Team 3, Team 4… Because it was in order

Team leader 1 meant that he was below the head of the headquarters, the highest rank, and Kim Ho-yeon could be said to be the second person in this district.

“The situation.”

“Not good.”

“Is the situation still serious inside?”

“Yes. It wasn’t good from the beginning, so even if I cleaned it up as much as I could, it wouldn’t show.”

Kim Ho-yeon put on the gas mask he had brought with him at the words of the hero.

“Go in.”

“Yes.”

I entered the building under the guidance of the hero.

I entered the basement through the stairs going down to the basement.

The moment he entered, Kim Ho-yeon couldn’t help but be astonished.

“Oooh, ooh!”

“Are you okay?!”

Hero hurriedly looked at Kim Ho-yeon and made him step back with a hand signal saying he was okay.

“It’s okay. It’s just disgusting. Destom. Are you okay?”

“Yes. I’m a hero. An A-rank is enough.”

“That’s good.”

De Storm smiled brightly, and Kim Ho-yeon patted her on the chest and moved forward.

“So what’s the situation?”

“Yes. There is not much difference from what I reported beforehand. I investigated this place and got into a battle with one villain. The villain escaped, but…”

“This place… no. The laboratory remains a horrible sight.”

A terrible smell and misty air as if poison gas had been sprayed.

Like a slaughterhouse, people are hung upside down by a stretched rope.

Even a room surrounded by glass and isolated like a prison.

Above all, it was dark everywhere, but the traces of the human experiment were very clearly visible everywhere.

“That sucks so…”

Kim Ho-yeon sighed briefly.

The reason why the current situation came to this was because of the testimony of her sister’s father.

‘You gave someone a bracelet?’

‘Yes, yes… ‘

‘Ha… I was a bigger son of b*tch than I thought, huh? But it’s not just you, did it happen in public?’

‘Yes. Then it’s true that giving money or anything… I kidnapped people to get the bracelet.’

‘… It’s a pride. This is a bastard !!! Come on. f*ck!! Let’s get you right!!’

During the interrogation, Kim Ho-yeon learned one thing.

‘If you bring a person to a certain group, they will barter’

I intuitively felt that it was not a simple rumor and investigated it. As a result of confirmation, the people in the slums were actually giving people secretly.

No matter how much the slums are extremely alienated from the eyes of the current society and where all sorts of problems occur, I never imagined that they would be this serious.

She hurriedly announced the seriousness of the incident and started a tracking operation after reporting, but the result was as seen now.

“Are the heroes okay? S one A three B five were put in, B wiped out A two seriously injured S lightly injured.”

“…”

“Haa…”

Kim Ho-yeon shook her head and moved her steps as if there was nothing to look at.

“I’ll be very busy for a while.”

“Is that so?”

“Okay. I’ll have to report back to the superiors.”

“Report… What report do you intend to report?”

When she was asked a question, she paused for a while, and then Kim Ho-yeon answered in a low voice.

A look of nervousness was evident on Death Storm’s face at her reply.

“Report on EX-class operation change.”
