-As if she were his girlfriend.

-As if she were his girlfriend…

“Hot!”

Yoo Eun-seol shook her head in sudden embarrassment.

Again.

This happens again.

Ever since that day when Na Hye-rin deliberately hit the nail on the head at the Clan Tower, that sentence kept swirling around in Yoo Eun-seol’s mind whenever she had a chance.

Even if she tried hard not to think about it, it would sneak in like a ghost as soon as she let her guard down.

And Yoo Eun-seol knew very well why she was so shaken.

“It was strange, after all.”

Although overly direct, to be honest, Na Hye-rin wasn’t wrong.

Yoo Eun-seol’s behavior has clearly been strange lately.

Recently, she often prioritized clan schedules over personal ones, and within those clan schedules, she tended to personally take care of tasks that the master should do.

Not to mention taking care of Do Jae-hyun’s specific anniversaries.

Formally, the reason was ‘the master who is still attending the academy is too busy-‘, but Yoo Eun-seol knew well that wasn’t the real reason.

“Did I… Want to get closer to Jae-hyun?”

Yoo Eun-seol and Do Jae-hyun are already in a master-disciple relationship.

Probably the closest relationship in his human relationships…

Except for a romantic relationship.

But did she want an even closer relationship than that?

Or did she want to receive some other compensation while handling his work?

Once the doubt began, there was no end to it.

Moreover, as Na Hye-rin said.

The fact that Yoo Eun-seol herself reacts quite sensitively when <Evil Hunter> clan members show interest in Do Jae-hyun these days.

This too was one of the unnecessary actions for simple vice-master management.

Thus, all situations point to one fact.

“Do I really…”

Really.

Do I like Jae-hyun?

“Ah, it can’t be!”

Yoo Eun-seol quickly shook her head at the self-question that suddenly came to mind.

She couldn’t admit it.

She couldn’t accept it.

Na Hye-rin expressed it as ‘absolutely’, but Yoo Eun-seol could never affirm this.

After all, she is Do Jae-hyun’s master.

There were more moments when they faced each other as master and disciple than as man and woman, and she had never felt romantic emotions while teaching him Holder abilities so far. Ŕ

…Surely there weren’t any.

“Besides, the age…”

All of Do Jae-hyun’s well-known lovers were the same age as him.

On the other hand, Yoo Eun-seol is 8 years older than him.

Because the age difference was so large, there was no way she could have thought about liking him from the beginning.

“But…”

Nevertheless, she keeps thinking about it.

The emotion that Na Hye-rin had ignited once was burning uncontrollably, growing larger inside Yoo Eun-seol.

It was no use trying to come to her senses.

She just couldn’t focus on her work.

-Just as if she were his girlfriend…

And again, Na Hye-rin’s words echoing in her mind.

Yoo Eun-seol sighed, holding her forehead.

“For now… I need to meet Hye-rin again.”

To resolve her unstable state, she first had to meet the cause of it.

“Did you finally admit it?”

Na Hye-rin crossed her arms with a triumphant attitude.

Yoo Eun-seol narrowed her eyes at that confident appearance.

“It’s not like that.”

“Come on, what do you mean it’s not? Your face right now is exactly that of someone who’s accepted their feelings.”

“Let’s make a plan first.”

“A plan…?”

When Yoo Eun-seol asked back at the sudden word, Na Hye-rin nodded with a smile.

“Yes. How to win the master’s heart. We need to make a plan.”

“I told you it’s not like that.”

“Yes, yes, I got it. I understand your feelings, sis, so let’s just make a plan.”

Na Hye-rin naturally took out a tablet from her magic bag and drew small pictures.

Yoo Eun-seol, who was responding grumpily at first, reluctantly sat down next to her, pretending to look.

“First of all, the most important thing is to spend time alone together.”

“Time alone?”

“Yes. What do you think is your biggest strength, sis?”

Yoo Eun-seol frowned at the brazen question.

She had said several times that she didn’t like Do Jae-hyun, who was her disciple, but this immature younger sister was asking questions based on that premise.

‘But this is… Solving the problem, I guess.’

A self-help measure for herself who had been showing strange symptoms lately.

Yoo Eun-seol finished rationalizing to herself like that.

Then she slowly answered Na Hye-rin’s question.

“Being Jae-hyun’s master…?”

“Exactly! As expected, Sis Eun-seol, you’re a woman who does what needs to be done?”

Lines were drawn rapidly on Na Hye-rin’s tablet.

The progress that had been stagnant suddenly continued.

“You can spend time alone with the master more stably than anyone else because you are publicly, and in reality, the master’s assassin-class teacher. You can call out the master for the purpose of training or education.”

“Jae-hyun is not someone who can be called out so easily.”

This time, Yoo Eun-seol shook her head firmly.

Do Jae-hyun is currently the busiest person in Korea.

Not only is he the master of the <Evil Hunter> clan, but he also has many things to deal with various important domestic organizations such as the Academy/Holder Association/3 major clans, and foreign clans including <Wings of Freedom> seek him out almost every day.

The top domestic and world-class S-grade Holder aiming for the pinnacle of global recognition.

That’s who Do Jae-hyun is now.

Na Hye-rin snapped her fingers at Yoo Eun-seol’s rebuttal.

“Of course, you can’t just call him carelessly. That’s why you need to make thorough preparations and call him out under the best conditions. And no matter how busy the master is… If his one and only teacher says there’s an education that must be done together, could he refuse to come?”

“…I’m not his only teacher.”

“It’s just a figure of speech. And, there’s only one beautiful female teacher like you, right?”

Yoo Eun-seol was at a loss for words at Na Hye-rin’s groundless logic.

Moreover, although it included some exaggeration…

If she had to argue, there was nothing wrong with what she said.

-Was Na Hye-rin always this good with words?

For a moment, she found herself thinking that without realizing it.

“Anyway, putting aside unnecessary talk, our justification is education after all. First, we’ll call out the master for the purpose of education, and then we’ll go into the detailed plan from there. Okay?”

“Okay?!”

Na Hye-rin asked again with wide eyes when no answer came.

At that sight, Yoo Eun-seol reluctantly nodded.

“…Okay.”

The so-called.

‘Operation for the teacher who took courage to seduce her disciple’.

The peaceful campus of the Academy.

The department office located in the Assassin Department building.

In this place that had just become deserted with the start of the vacation, I was exchanging small documents with an office staff member.

“Yes, most of the early graduation requirements have been met due to Holder Do Jae-hyun’s special administrative processing. You’ll probably only need to fill about 20 hours of class time next semester for automatic processing.”

I asked back to the staff’s brief explanation.

“Then I don’t need to come to the office separately after this?”

“No, no. Anyway, since Holder Do Jae-hyun is subject to special administrative processing, we’ll continuously check the graduation requirements and completed hours. If you need anything more or have any questions, you can contact us by phone.”

“I see. Thank you.”

I bowed my head at the satisfactory answer.

“Then, I’ll see you next time.”

“Yes! Next time we’ll see you as Graduate Holder Do Jae-hyun!”

Accepting the office staff’s bright greeting, I walked straight out of the building.

The Academy interior was still quiet with no people.

Inside, I stretched out wide.

“Finally, this is coming to an end too.”

After conquering the <Room of the Deserter>.

Already half a year has passed.

So many things have happened during that time.

Looking at just the <Evil Hunter> clan, we merged with two clans, <Blue Archer> and <Titans>, simultaneously expanding the clan and solidifying its foundation, while externally focusing on making the clan’s reputation known worldwide.

Fortunately, because we had handled such a famous incident almost single-handedly, we were able to achieve some results in growing the clan’s size in just half a year.

“And dungeons… I think I’ve discovered about four.”

The place where a clan can play an active role is, after all, dungeons.

Among them, the ‘undiscovered dungeon’ which is called the flower of dungeons.

I utilized my knowledge from the original work and the abilities of clan members to discover four undiscovered dungeons so far.

Of course, we conducted the conquests alone, so the ownership of those dungeons all belonged to <Evil Hunter>.

It was an excellent achievement that secured both wealth and honor, which had been slightly lacking for a large clan.

Thanks to this, our clan has been showing noticeably stable growth recently.

“And I… My personal matters are coming to an end too.”

If I focused externally on clan work for half a year, internally I did my best to graduate from the Academy.

By diligently filling the time as a ‘special assistant’ that Professor Tak Won-ho had presented to me, I was able to almost perfectly fulfill the early graduation requirements given only to me.

Thanks to this, now that the second semester of the second year has ended.

Now I only have about 20 hours left of my time at the Academy.

My Academy life, which was long if you say it’s long and short if you say it’s short, was coming to an end.

“Woohoo!! Now I can focus more on clan work.”

Although the clan’s growth has come quite into view, there’s still a gap considering the clan’s size and the level of clan members.

Now that I’ve almost completely moved away from Academy work, I could focus more on clan work.

“I’ve been sorry to the teacher all this time….”

Because I’m still a student but my master, the teacher, who is the vice-master, has had quite a hard time so far.

I passed on a lot of things I should do as a master, and she handled quite a lot of work in my place.

Even though my teacher said it was okay, I felt sorry for these things, but now it seemed I could lighten that burden.

Bzzt-!

But it seems my teacher can’t be a gentle either.

Just as I was thinking about my teacher, a text message came from her.

I opened my vibrating phone to check the message.

[Teacher Yoo Eun-seol] Jae-hyun… Do you have time this Saturday by any chance?

“Saturday?”

I tilted my head for a moment.

Of course I have time.

Anyway, all the Academy work is finished, and now I’m planning to focus on clan work in earnest.

It’s just that I was curious because it seemed to be the first time my teacher asked for specific time like this.

…But.

The next message was even more outrageous.

[Teacher Yu Eunseol] If it’s okay… would you like to come to my house and learn a new dagger technique?

My tilted head tilts even more.

So…

Does this mean she wants to have a lesson after a long time?
