Chapter 267 - Spring Again (4)

โ€œCongratulations and cheers for Bridget Poulsen joining Masked Bacchus! Yeah!โ€

Eight glasses clinked in the air. All of the members of Masked Bacchus, including the reserve member, Oh Hye-na, were gathered together. ๐’‡๐™ง๐šŽ๐ž๐™ฌ๐’†๐‘๐‘›๐‘œv๐šŽ๐’.c๐‘œm

โ€œOh, thank you, everyone! Please look forward to the cute and sexy Bridget in the future!โ€

Bridget laughed as she emptied her glass of beer.

โ€œYou said it yourself?โ€

Kang Shin-hyuk mumbled and tilted his cup as if he found this whole thing ridiculous. None of them were wearing masks as not only Oh Hye-na, but also Bridget had signed soul contracts during their enrollment process.

โ€œIn the first place, you have to call yourself pretty to become prettier? By the way, our Death Puppeteer is also very handsome...โ€

โ€œGo away.โ€

โ€œUh, huh?โ€

Claire, who had been sitting beside him, pushed Bridgetโ€™s head away.

โ€œAh.โ€

โ€œCheh.โ€

โ€œAh.โ€

โ€œOh my.โ€

Shin Eunah, who was also next to him, pushed Bridget back, and then Lee Na-hee and Eleanor pushed it, creating an inextricable gap between Bridget and Kang Shin-hyuk. Bridget looked like she felt the whole thing was quaint as the four protected Kang Shin-hyuk.

โ€œWow, it feels like sumo.โ€

โ€œSince this is Korea, change it to ssireum. Localization is essential even though they may not look similar.โ€

โ€œItโ€™s like when people from Osaka become Busan people.โ€

โ€œYou respond calmly, but I think youโ€™ll suffer a lot from the Death Puppeteer.โ€

The presence of the sparkling rings on Kang Shin-hyuk and Claireโ€™s hands was truly dazzling. But what was even more daunting was Shin Eunah, still unable to accept reality, and his two seniors from school were looking for an opportunity to narrow the distance with him. Well, in the modeling industry or Hollywood where Bridget worked, things like affairs were commonplace!

โ€œWow, youโ€™re so popular. Iโ€™ll come to you soon...โ€

โ€œPut that away if you donโ€™t want to die.โ€

โ€œBridget-noona, letโ€™s leave that cold guy and play together.โ€

Behind Kang Shin-hyuk, Baek In-ha spoke with a light tone as always. However, Bridget replied with a grim expression.

โ€œYeah, In-ha is also handsome, but not my type, so...โ€

โ€œAh.โ€

โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong with In-ha oppa?โ€ Oh Hye-na cried out, but that only made Baek more miserable. However, Kang Shin-hyuk, who knew that Baek had the student council harem, was no longer fooled by him.

โ€œTo think Mr. Puppeteer was really a minor.โ€

โ€œNow, call me by name.โ€

โ€œItโ€™s really awesome; what did I do as a student...?โ€

โ€œYou mustโ€™ve been playing.โ€

Claire said so with a snort. Claire, who was confined in her youth to a superhuman facility because she awakened a very rare trait, had a longing for youth and a very slight sense of inferiority towards those who enjoyed the youth she didnโ€™t have. Before meeting Kang Shin-hyuk, she wondered if that was why she used to say her ideal type was older.

โ€œDing! I was modeling!โ€

โ€œOh, sorry. Itโ€™s my fault.โ€

โ€œItโ€™s not really wrong because I played a lot while modeling, kuhuhu.โ€

โ€œLetโ€™s hit her.โ€

โ€œThen, when you awakened...โ€

โ€œOh, that...โ€

There were quite a few people gathered, but the atmosphere wasnโ€™t bad overall. Bridget and Baek were good at raising the mood, and Shin Eunah, Oh Hye-na, and Eleanor were satisfied with just listening. In fact, as the protagonist of the day was Bridget, most of the topics revolved around her.

โ€œWhat? Youโ€™re in a Korean drama?โ€

โ€œI came to Korea, so I had to try it. Whoo, it was hard to take care of it. Iโ€™m also making a movie.โ€

โ€œYour spirit is overflowing.โ€

โ€œEven if Eunah quits the association, I will work to support her!โ€

โ€œI donโ€™t need it because I already have a lot of money. Go away.โ€

โ€œAh.โ€

Kang Shin-hyuk didnโ€™t have an interest in Bridget, but he had to admit that she was energetically active in various fields and exuded positive energy. Claire looked at him pointedly, however, so he decided to quit looking at Bridget with admiration. ๐˜ง๐š›๐—ฒ๐˜ฆ๐š ๐™š๐™—๐™ฃo๐™ซ๐—ฒ๐š•.๐œo๐“‚

โ€œWhat is the content of this athletic meet?โ€

As he turned the topic gently, Baek replied with a clenched fist.

โ€œAbolition of evil habits is the first decision. We will completely abolish the old game and renew it.โ€

โ€œYou come out strong.โ€

โ€œHey, honestly, are you talking about running or horseback riding? If youโ€™re a superhuman, you should play a hot game with more visual explosives.โ€

โ€œWerenโ€™t you most excited about the race last year?โ€

โ€œIt was the same with Shinyuk.โ€

โ€œDonโ€™t say that; Iโ€™m shy.โ€

Kang Shin-hyuk cut in at Baekโ€™s speech, then Oh Hye-na suddenly spoke up.

โ€œI want to go to the two crowns battle.โ€

โ€œNo.โ€

โ€œYes.โ€

When Kang Shin-hyuk and Baek opposed each other, Oh Hye-na cried out.

โ€œWhy are you saying, no?!โ€

โ€œThen you canโ€™t go to the rookie game.โ€

Kang Shin-hyuk solemnly declared so, then added with a slightly vague tone...

โ€œThere was a boy last year who gave up on the rookie battle to go to the two crowns battle, but he couldnโ€™t do anything and became a shame...โ€

โ€œHey, Shinyuk. Is that really my story? Are you talking about me?โ€

โ€œSo put it aside. Get the solid grades you can now.โ€

โ€œOh... Yes.โ€

That was also one of the powers you could acquire at school. In particular, Kang Shin-hyukโ€™s position had changed significantly upon acquiring the title of Rookie King. At his words, Oh Hye-na bowed her head. The strange relationship between them formed at the start of the semester had settled to some extent.

โ€œWhat about you, Shinyuk? Are you going for the Knight Crown and the Two Crowns?โ€

โ€œNo, I agreed to share with Eli. Iโ€™m only doing the Two Crowns.โ€

โ€œIโ€™m the Crown of Knights.โ€

Eleanor naturally responded to him. In fact, it was rare to occupy both titles. It was better to focus on only one. It seemed that there was an excuse for Douglas Payneโ€™s loss to Baek since he had gone for both last year.

โ€œAre you saying that itโ€™s natural to win if you go all out? You said you would share the titles?โ€

โ€œOf course. You can also take a top-rank.โ€

Eleanor carefully held up a victory sign next to Kang Shin-hyuk, who responded boldly. Lee Na-hee grappled with her attitude as if the two were forming a consensus. Baek was unable to avoid getting heated up by Eleanor, and he declared Kang Shin-hyuk as his target.

โ€œPack your bags in the royal class and get ready to leave.โ€

โ€œNo, I get a room because Iโ€™m the vice-captain of the Wyvern Knights.โ€

โ€œOh, oppa. Just donโ€™t lose...โ€

โ€œHey! Canโ€™t you believe in me?!โ€

Even Oh Hye-na, who was always his ally, looked away. As Kang Shin-hyuk struggled with the sight, Lee Na-hee spoke up with dissatisfaction.

โ€œArenโ€™t you just thinking of fighting? We have a contest.โ€

โ€œHuh?โ€

Kang Shin-hyukโ€™s eyes went wide.

โ€œWe won last year.โ€

โ€œThat was the rookie contest. Now neither of us are rookies.โ€

โ€œThatโ€™s right.โ€

Kang Shin-hyukโ€™s metallurgy had already reached SS-rank thanks to his synchronization rate increasing. Lee Na-hee, too, had evolved into using a new enchantment system called Rune, and her ability improved drastically.

โ€œNow we have to compete in the world competition. Itโ€™ll be valuable for our name to be known.โ€

โ€œA world competition.โ€

He was curious if they could still attend such a competition, but he was confident in their skills.

โ€œYeah, even in other schools, children who show their skills can compete with adults. Of course, itโ€™s rare to win prizes.โ€

โ€œAre there no restrictions at all?โ€

โ€œIf you challenge yourself with that skill, youโ€™ll be buried. Even so, my grandfather said a big one would be held this year.โ€

She cutely laughed for no reason, then blushed and tried to hit him. It was then...

-Shin-hyuk.

A very strange message appeared in his eyes. When Kang Shin-hyuk stopped laughing, Claire asked what was going on, then immediately looked as serious as him.

-This is a dangerous situation. I am asking for rescue.

โ€œShin-hyuk, this...โ€

โ€œDid you get it, Claire?โ€

โ€œWhat is it?โ€

Shin Eunah, feeling alienated, intervened with a pout. However, Kang Shin-hyuk had no time to answer. Someone who could send a rescue request message to both of them...

โ€œVita?โ€

Vita, the android created by Claire with the help of Kang Shin-hyuk, sent them both a rescue request message. She was in Cy Xenon, the world they visited some time before. It didnโ€™t matter how she sent it; it was important to note that she suddenly turned to them for help after months of no contact.

โ€œWe should go right now.โ€

โ€œWhat about school?โ€

โ€œItโ€™s Thursday today. If Iโ€™m absent on Friday, then you can cover for me.โ€

โ€œHey, what are you talking about? Absent? What?โ€

Kang Shin-hyuk stood up with an ambiguous smile at those who couldnโ€™t keep up.

โ€œSorry, I think we need to go somewhere.โ€

โ€œAre you a couple now?โ€

โ€œ...โ€

Baek said this so mischievously, but Shin Eunahโ€™s expression looked frozen. Then, Claire spoke up seriously.

โ€œI want Eunah to go, too.โ€

โ€œHuh?! Me too?โ€

The ice thawed.

โ€œAre you sure?!โ€

โ€œYes.โ€

โ€œI donโ€™t hate it, but suddenly, no, I donโ€™t really like it... Iโ€™m not prepared.โ€

Shin Eunahโ€™s face reddened as she mumbled. Then, Bridget stood up, unwilling to miss this opportunity.

โ€œThen, me too! Letโ€™s do it together, finally, the three that I dreamed of, or the four... Oops!โ€

โ€œNo.โ€

โ€œJunior...โ€

โ€œNo!โ€

Kang Shin-hyuk told Eleanor and Lee Na-hee to stay behind, then joined hands with Shin Eunah and Claire to enter his My Room. Shin Eunah had been there before, but she wandered around and examined the new features he had achieved from finishing his last dimensional quest.

โ€œWow, here...โ€

โ€œDonโ€™t.โ€

When only members of the Hero Universe remained, he was able to explain the situation. Once he explained it, Shin Eunah had an odd expression on her face.

โ€œYou two went without telling me.โ€

โ€œYes, we dated secretly.โ€

โ€œClaire!โ€

Shin Eunah raised her eyebrows at Claireโ€™s honest confession, which frightened Kang Shin-hyuk. However, Claire didnโ€™t look away from Eunah, and in the end, the latter sighed and nodded.

โ€œI hate you... Iโ€™ll help you, though.โ€

โ€œThank you, Eunah.โ€

-Once the departure has been decided, it is best to set the starting point first.

The so-far quiet administrator suddenly began to explain. Kang Shin-hyuk tilted his head.

โ€œThe starting point?โ€

-Thatโ€™s right. Currently, the world you want to go to is Cy Xenon, which is in a precarious state of not knowing when it will be disconnected from the Hero Universe. Therefore, it is necessary to set the spatial movement coordinates so you can escape even if it completely collapses. This is possible because you have the ability to move through space.

Shin Eunah intervened, and he wondered why the administrator would explain it, but it seemed that he did so that they could return safely. Kang Shin-hyuk made eye contact with Eunah and set the coordinates according to the adminโ€™s instructions. In his My Room, a piece containing a significant amount of energy from Kang Shin-hyuk and Shin Eunah was installed, and then the three moved to the dimension together.

It ended up being an apocalypse.
