Chapter 98 When a woman holds a grudge, frost falls even in May and June (2)
Thanks to Soo-yeon noona’s cooperation, the hypnosis succeeded.
Moreover, Winterer herself had completely broken down.
Comforting and coaxing her wasn’t difficult.
“You don’t want to wear something like a dog collar, right? If you promise not to act up, I won’t make you wear it.”
“Okay….”
“If you hurt people, Haru will get angry. Use your powers only on monsters, okay?”
“Yes….”
-Ding!
[Skill ‘Complete Hypnosis’ threatens to spank if orders are disobeyed!]
[Skill ‘Complete Hypnosis’ raises its soft arm to display its power.]
Each attempt at hypnosis was met with no resistance.
She must have been extremely mentally unstable.
To the extent that, right now, it seemed possible to treat her schizophrenia.
…However, I couldn’t treat her immediately.
As much as I wanted to, she was still in the middle of her trial.
It was better to treat her after receiving a reduced sentence for her mental illness.
‘But still, it’s pitiful. Should I help a little?’
“And, you know? Whatever happened, Haru thinks you did it because you like her.”
Although I couldn’t treat her, there were many ways to comfort a dejected child.
Winterer’s tearful eyes looked at me.
“Rice cake?”
“To Haru, you’re a reliable unnie. She probably even acts spoiled with you. She’s secretly quite affectionate.”
“…….”
“So accept it. An unnie should accept her dongsaeng’s affection. That’s just common sense, right?”
“What kind of common sense is that?”
“Moreover… Winterer, you’re the strongest, right? Since you’re the strongest unnie, you can do this much for Haru, right?”
-Ding.
“…I am the strongest. Korea’s strongest, Winterer!”
Winterer’s expression brightened a little.
Thanks to hypnosis, her pride had been slightly boosted.
Objectively, she was like a child sulking and then being pacified by a compliment…
Well, since it was cute, it was fine.
“Alright. If anything happens, tell me. I’ll help with anything related to Haru.”
Additionally, I felt sorry for making her cry, so I added one more thing.
I offered to help with anything related to Haru from now on.
Her face lit up with a smile.
It was like a child who received a present on Christmas.
“———Anything?”
“Yeah. As long as it’s something I can do.”
“Can you promise that with your impressive hypnosis?”
“Of course, of course. As long as it’s for Seo Haru, I, Seo Yu-jin, will absolutely cooperate with Winterer. Deal?”
-Ding.
[Skill ‘Complete Hypnosis’ pouts, saying its master has dug his own grave again.]
“…Heh. Heheh. Alright, rice cake. I’m counting on you.”
Though her laughter sounded a bit mischievous…
Since both of us cared for Haru, nothing bad would happen. Probably.
* * *
One of the C-rank gates managed by Cheonhwa.
An ice storm raged there.
It was Winterer’s work, self-proclaimed first-class villain, and known villain complainant.
-Kwaaaang!!!!
“Kyaaahahahaha!! This feels so refreshing!!!”
Her combat was truly overwhelming.
Enemies that stood in her way were simply frozen.
As soon as her delicate fingers touched them, they turned into ice and became statues.
Even monsters cloaked in flames were no exception. All of them.
The only thing left where she passed was frozen statues.
“To think she’d be this strong….”
Even the A-rank awakened of Cheonhwa couldn’t help but exclaim.
If such veterans were like this, how could ordinary people not be?
The accompanying non-awakened people repeatedly expressed their admiration.
“Winterer, you look like a princess from the Winter Palace….”
-Whoosh. Crack.
“Hey, civilians, stay away from the ice! It’s dangerous until I finish up!”
“Ooh, saint!!!”
There was another subject of admiration. It was Yu-jin.
He was busy running around, slaying monsters.
He pierced the katana through the ice, accurately striking the vital points.
The monster, which had been rolling its eyes while frozen, died instantly.
Not a single mistake in his skill, truly legendary.
People looked at him with awe.
A young hero receiving their reverence.
“Even though the vital points are hard to target because they’re frozen, he doesn’t miss a single one. Right, Soo-yeon unnie?”
“Yes. When it comes to vital points, he’s really better than me.”
However, there was one person.
The angel in white and Korea’s best healer, Ryu Soo-yeon.
Her expression was not bright.
In her eyes, he was not a hero…
———but a patient in need of treatment.
‘Winterer is easier. But Yu-jin is severe. He doesn’t even realize how twisted he is.’
She knew.
Two weeks before the entrance ceremony.
The lunatic who came to her, tattered every time.
A person with no trace of self-love… Yu-jin.
[Yu-jin, you should get some psychiatric counseling. I’ll ask a professor I know….]
[It’s okay. I’m sane.]
[You’ve been self-harming to the brink of death for a week, yet you say you’re sane?]
[It’s not self-harm, just a bit of extreme training. Please, just a few more days.]
‘Even with hypnosis anesthesia, to cut into your own flesh and claim to be sane.’
She noticed from the first day that Yu-jin did not feel pain.
Back then, she thought he was a congenital analgesia patient.
However, even with congenital analgesia, he was still human.
There was no way the mind of someone who tore into his own body could be intact.
To her, Yu-jin was a patient.
A mentally ill person who self-harmed, lost in blind devotion.
A madman who could laugh and throw away his life if given the chance, with no trace of self-love.
‘Though he got better after enrolling in the academy….’
[No, Yu-jin. You’re at your limit….]
[I can handle one more person, cough. It’s fine.]
‘Judging by his behavior during rounds, he’s still the same inside.’
After a long reflection, her eyes turned forward again.
Toward the young man who still knew the vital points very well.
Her eyes sparkled.
‘Yu-jin, I will definitely treat you. With everything I have.’
-Whisper whisper.
“Hey, Soo-yeon’s eyes look kind of, um, strange. Is it just me?”
“Is Soo-yeon getting involved too? This is driving me crazy.”
“No way. The girl who cried her eyes out saying she’d never love again… No way, right?”
To others, it looked like she was staring at Yu-jin in a way that could easily be misunderstood.
But Ryu Soo-yeon didn’t know that.
* * *
The gate attack concluded without any disturbances.
Winterer behaved herself without rampaging.
Additionally, Yu-jin was busy ensuring no civilian casualties occurred, so it was only natural.
This remarkable feat immediately spread throughout Korea.
[Title: Winterer’s overwhelming power]
[Title: How did Hypnosis Guy subdue her?]
[Title: Yep, it’s him again.jpg]
As a result, Winterer and Yu-jin’s evaluations skyrocketed.
Seol Ha-yeon’s aim hit the mark perfectly.
———However, there was one issue.
One that even Seol Ha-yeon didn’t notice.
“Hey. You promised to do anything for me, right?”
“Related to Haru? Of course. Since you behaved well today, tell me anything. I can do anything….”
“Bring your face closer. I’m going to kiss you.”
“What?”
No one knew Yu-jin was digging his own grave.
In the back seat of the car heading to the academy.
The diligent young man’s eyes widened.
“Why suddenly… Do you like me?”
“No. To be honest, I still want to kill you.”
“Then why all of a sudden? To bite my tongue off?”
“I won’t do anything like that, so shut up and give me your lips. It’s for Haru.”
Meanwhile, Winterer just smiled mischievously.
With an expression that matched the line ‘pathetic♡.’
‘Originally, I planned to have rice cake kiss Haru… but for now, I’ll just accept her childishness. Instead, I’ll practice on this guy.’
Her thoughts were as follows.
Since Yu-jin said he’d do anything for Haru.
Should I make him kiss Haru?
Ha. That would make the strongest Winterer seem like she’s avoiding a kiss.
I won’t run away. An unnie accepting her dongsaeng’s affection is ‘common sense.’
Then what to do. It’s too good an opportunity to waste…
Ah. Just in time, I was running out of ways to teach Haru how to kiss.
To be honest, I’ve never done it before, so my tricks were running out.
Yes. Let’s take this opportunity for some practical experience.
I’ll gain experience to teach Haru, give her an indirect kiss, and mess with this rice cake.
That was truly killing three birds with one stone! What an utterly villainous plan!
Indeed, it was a plan befitting a villain complainer.
“You and I kissing is for Haru’s sake? Why?”
“I have no reason to explain. Just shut up and kiss Winterer.”
“Ha. Sorry, but hypnosis can’t… .”
-Ding!
[Skill ‘Complete Hypnosis’ looks away, saying it’s something the master brought upon himself.]
“……!?”
However, it was indeed for Haru’s sake.
Yu-jin’s body started moving towards Winterer.
Regardless of his will.
Yu-jin’s mouth gaped open.
“Do you seriously believe that? That to indulge Haru’s whims, I have to kiss you!!?”
“That’s right. Now, quickly.”
“This, this isn’t right!! I’m Haru’s father, and you’re her sister…”
“Shut up and bring your lips here. It’s an ‘order.'”
“Eek!!”
Even though he screamed, his body didn’t stop.
So Yu-jin quickly sought help.
He sensed that at this rate, he would end up ‘smooching.’
He turned to Ryu Soo-yeon, who had been watching from the driver’s seat.
“Soo-yeon noona!! Please stop her!!”
“Hehe. Yu-jin? Just give her your lips.”
“Noona!!!?”
A plea for help. Coldly ignored.
The brown eyes watching through the rearview mirror softened.
‘Winterer’s reason might be a prank, but….’
‘Yu-jin’s reaction. He seems to genuinely hate it. Hmm. Is it because of love?’
To her, Yu-jin was a patient who had significantly improved mentally in just a week at the academy.
She suspected the reason was ‘love.’
Love towards one of Ninomiya, Yu Shia, or Alice.
Even now. Faced with the situation of kissing Winterer.
He was visibly shivering with goosebumps.
He wouldn’t react like this even if he were about to be raped.
…Unless he truly loved someone deeply.
Thus, Soo-yeon was certain that Yu-jin’s remedy was love.
‘For now, let’s observe. We need to see if it’s just a defense mechanism or true pure love.’
Therefore, she just watched.
To gather information about his mental state.
Until they were on the verge of kissing.
‘Let’s park the car first….’
-Screech.
‘It can’t be helped. At this point, counterattack!’
Taking advantage of the car stopping.
Yu-jin’s eyes flashed golden.
“Winterer. Let me ask you one thing. What kind of kiss do you want?”
“What?”
“There are many types of kisses. From a simple peck on the cheek to the deep ones lovers share.”
Yu-jin’s question. Let’s clarify our definition of a kiss.
Winterer spoke without shame.
The kiss Haru would want was clear.
“Of course, the kind lovers share. Not that I want to be your lover, you rice cake.”
“……!!!”
‘This is my chance!’
And that was the answer Yu-jin had been hoping for.
To him, a kiss between lovers meant a kiss with his wives.
———The kind of kiss from his days as ‘Breeding Man.’
‘You want me to kiss you like I did with my wives? By my standards? Fine. Let’s see how long you can endure!’
-Tub.
The moment the direction of the hypnosis changed.
Yu-jin swiftly reached out his hand.
Under Winterer’s sleeveless shirt.
So that his fingers hooked on the strap of her sports bra.
-Srk.
“…? ……Ha!!!!?”
Winterer, who had been momentarily frozen, realized his intention after the strap moved a little.
Yu-jin was trying to take off her underwear!
“……!!!? What, what are you doing, you perverted rice cake!?”
“You said you wanted a lover’s kiss, right? Lovers do this while kissing, undressing and caressing. Don’t you know?”
“T-t-this…!!?”
Her shocked inquiry was met with the ‘Breeding Man’ type definition of a kiss.
It was a definition that was hard for Winterer, who lacked such knowledge, to refute.
Her face was filled with bewilderment.
‘So a kiss is like this? It’s not just a simple peck on the lips?!’
She had become accustomed to kisses and thought little of them.
But this was a bit. No, very much so.
Even if I am the strongest villain, I still have a sense of shame.
But for Haru’s sake…?
And he is good-looking. Maybe I should just close my eyes and endure it?
Thinking this, her lips pouted in distress.
-Srk.
“If you don’t want to, just say so. Just say to stop. Please.”
Meanwhile, the strap continued to slide down her shoulder.
Although it hadn’t moved even a centimeter yet…
If this continued, well. No need to spell it out.
Predicting the future, Winterer’s eyes spun.
“T-t-that’s… I, well….”
[Skill ‘Complete Hypnosis’….]
“Ah. It must be so embarrassing to be undressed by someone you don’t even like, right? You should tell me to stop right now?”
On the contrary, Yu-jin’s face turned pale.
Please get hypnotized quickly. I don’t want to undress you either.
It’s disrespectful to my wives, and honestly, it feels like I’m committing a crime. In this world. The law won’t spare me-
Terrified by these thoughts.
In other words, this was a chicken race between the two.
A fight to see whether shame or guilt would explode first.
A battle that made their hearts naturally shrink.
The result of the fight, well.
“S-s-stop!!!”
“……Yes, sorry!!! If you don’t want it, I won’t do it!!!”
-Whip.
‘I, I almost got undressed. By that rice cake!!’
‘Ugh. I feel like a pedophile. I want to throw up….’
They both ended up wearing only their underwear.
-Hehe.
‘Pfft. Winterer is so funny. Getting embarrassed over something like that. If it were me….’
It was an adorable fight in Soo-yeon’s eyes, who had been watching.
* * *
After subduing Winterer’s rampage, which caused immense damage.
I quickly fled to the front seat.
The atmosphere was so cold it felt like frost had settled.
“That damn rice cake, perverted rice cake, completely ruined….”
-Swish.
“Soo-yeon noona. It wasn’t like that.”
“I know. Yu-jin didn’t mean it that way.”
“…Thank you.”
Fortunately, to a third party, it seemed understandable.
I finally relaxed.
I let out a sigh of relief without realizing it.
‘Yeah. I’m not a lolicon. I like mature ones. Absolutely.’
“Hmm. But Winterer is quite cute. Rejecting her means you prefer mature ones?”
“Of course!”
So, without thinking, I answered.
Unaware of what Soo-yeon’s question implied.
“Hmm… Then, how about me?”
“What?”
-Slightly.
“If Yu-jin is okay with it, you can do it to me. That thing lovers do.”
“…Hey~ Stop teasing me. What are you saying.”
“Well, I’m not wearing underwear, so there’s nothing to take off.”
“———What are you saying, noona!!!?”
