Flowing Time
Kangin Academy was currently the center of attention because of the enrollment of two people.
Kim Ho-jun and Seomun Ye-jin.
Their enrollment as S-class hunters who had been given the title of the world's strongest couple was not only a topic at Kangin Academy but was also being watched from overseas.
"Both of them aren't affiliated with any guild."
"Maybe they'll join our guild?"
Overseas guilds were trying to approach with these thoughts, but the two had declared that they would continue to live as free agents rather than joining any guild, including the Kangin Guild that ruled Korea.
And by saying that they would lend their power in the form of mercenaries when necessary, they blocked any further approaches from guilds.
However, the domestic guilds were doing their best to maintain at least a non-hostile, friendly relationship with the two.
With the support of two S-class hunters, any dungeon could be cleared without worrying about casualties.

"Still not enough."
Baek Seo-jin muttered while looking at the photo on his phone.
On the phone, a photo showed Kim Ho-jun and Seomun Ye-jin in academy uniforms, arms crossed, having enrolled at Kangin Academy.
The sight of Seomun Ye-jin in the academy girl's uniform was so beautiful that it made Baek Seo-jin's heart race.
Her long light purple hair close to indigo, blue eyes, and the voluptuous body with perfect proportions that even the academy uniform couldn't hide.
Especially the harmonious beauty of her snow-white legs exposed under the short skirt and her slender height, which was why she was called the most beautiful model.
But she was currently officially a married woman. Their relationship was so public that it was reported in internet articles as a married couple.
'Becoming Kim Ho-jun's wife and known all over the world. Hah, I'm worried about how much pain this will cause Ye-jin noona. It makes my heart ache.'
From Baek Seo-jin's perspective, who thought he had to save Seomun Ye-jin, this situation would leave deep wounds on her.
It was infuriating that the world didn't know about Kim Ho-jun's tyrannical behavior—how he had been rude to his own parents, brought up the name of his incestuous brother, and caused arguments.
'What the hell did I do all last year?'
Before the memory was sealed, what had I done that led to the situation becoming this bad?
Although he had felt this way several times, Baek Seo-jin always dismissed the thought like always.
From now on, he had to fix it.
The mistake had already been committed; he couldn't change that. For now, he had to do his best to save Seomun Ye-jin.
And since he needed friends to help him, he had suggested to Lee Ha-yeon and Han Se-hee earlier that they train together.
"Ha-yeon-ah, Se-hee-ya. If you have time, how about training together? I'll help you."
"No, it's fine."
"I'm busy too."
Lee Ha-yeon and Han Se-hee had rejected the request to train together with him this time as well, but Baek Seo-jin thought it was unavoidable.
Because if they were seen with another man as friends, it would likely cause rumors of an affair through internet articles.
'I have to be considerate as a friend.'
As a friend, he had to understand their situation and be considerate.
It didn't matter to him if rumors spread, but the two would be in trouble.
Especially Han Se-hee, who didn't tense up around him because she saw him as a friend, was an introverted personality who felt embarrassed in front of others.
Lee Ha-yeon wasn't introverted, but as the successor of the Angel Guild and someone who managed her image as a genius girl in the media, she would be in a difficult position if rumors spread.

"Yeobo, look at this. Isn't it pretty?"
After returning home, Seomun Ye-jin playfully lifted her skirt slightly toward him.
The academy uniform skirt was so short it reminded him of a tight schoolgirl skirt, and under Seomun Ye-jin's skirt, she wasn't wearing anything at all.
The meaning of her saying "pretty" was clear—it referred to what was inside, not the skirt itself.
"Miss, you're always beautiful. Not 'quite pretty,' but the most beautiful."
"Yeobo too~ Hehe~"
She smiled happily, satisfied with his words.
It had been a year since their marriage registration was filed. She now called him 'Yeobo' and openly showed the world that she was his wife.
One year ago, Han Se-hee and Lee Ha-yeon had messaged me this fact. When they came to receive training from me later, they also told me about Baek Seo-jin.
'As expected, he's changed.'
Baek Seo-jin had guessed the reason for the change.
After becoming an S-class hunter, he couldn't handle the past truths that came to mind, so he chose to avoid the truth.
By sealing his memories, he filled the empty memory space with his imagination.
As a result, he looked down on his older brother Baek Seo-jun even more and saw Kim Ho-jun as an enemy who had forcibly taken his first love.
And even now, a year later, he was trying to become stronger with the determination to defeat him and take Seomun Ye-jin away from him.
He was roaming the world, fighting numerous villains and gaining fame.
He wanted to crush him right away, but he had to hold back for now.
"Miss, stay still for a moment."
"Yes!"
To suppress his irritation and anger toward Baek Seo-jin for a moment, I pressed my lips to Seomun Ye-jin's snow-white thigh.
The taste and scent of Seomun Ye-jin's skin always made me feel good.
It was enough to prevent an accident where I would kill Baek Seo-jin on the spot.
"Hng~ Haaat!"
My tongue, slowly licking Seomun Ye-jin's thigh, gradually moved upward, and finally, a soft moan escaped from Seomun Ye-jin's pretty lips.
In the heat of passion, Seomun Ye-jin and I continued to intensely explore each other.
* * *
The enrollment of S-class hunters Kim Ho-jun and Seomun Ye-jin. However, the two didn't show their faces at Kangin Academy for three years.
They only attended occasionally, but as S-class hunters, they showed many achievements outside the academy.
[SSS-class dungeon cleared in the shortest time!]
[SSS-class villain Kim Heon-young killed!]
[Accumulated 13 SS-class villain kills overseas!]
These achievements of the couple were always reported in articles and widely known.
Because of this, the couple who were actually achieving results were not causing problems by just putting their names on the academy and doing external activities.
The Kangin Guild supported them, and there was no one who could oppose it.
It was the official goal of Kangin Academy to nurture excellent hunters, and restricting the actions of two excellent hunters would be equivalent to mission drift.
And now, three years later, the two were finally entering their fourth year, the graduation year of the academy.

Only one year until the original novel's main plot time!
Today, as I started the day spending time with Seomun Ye-jin, I felt that the time was approaching when I could enact my revenge as I got closer to the original novel's main plot time.
The day when my anger and revenge against Baek Hyeong-won, Kim Yu-jeong, and Baek Seo-jin would come was approaching.
And... today, for the revenge against Baek Seo-jin, and even if not, because I didn't want to waste the time on him, and because I didn't want to discard the accumulated connections, I had to take other actions.
"Seo-jun oppa, I'm here."
The beautiful girl with pink hair and red eyes, Han Se-hee, who came to find me.
From now on, her relationship, which had even earned her the title of in the eyes of the public, would change.
