Inside the limousine, after Kim Hajin left, Yoo Yeonha was looking outside leaning her head on the window. Han River, the Tower of Hero, guild buildings shining with their respective insignias.
Seoul's sky was unusually grey. It seemed it was going to rain soon.
"...Haa."
Yoo Yeonha let out a small sigh and pondered. Kim Hajin had asked her to investigate the truth behind his parents' deaths. In that case, how much did he know?
That he was a victim of the Kwang-Oh Incident? Or even that Chae Joochul was behind it?
Feeling a headache, Yoo Yeonha pressed her temples.
This was why one-sided knowledge of information was unfair. Because she didn't know how much he knew, she couldn't decide how much to reveal.
"...And this."
A plastic bag caught her attention. It was the homemade hamburger Kim Hajin made. Although it smelled good, Yoo Yeonha didn't have the energy to eat.
"Um... driver?"
She called the driver to ask if he wanted it. But when she held the plastic bag up, the burger's smell spread out even more. Its savory and fragrant scent made it clear that it wasn't an ordinary hamburger.
"Yes, Miss? Do you need something?"
The driver asked.
In this short amount of time, countless thoughts flashed through her head.
"N-No, it's nothing."
In the end, she brought the plastic bag closer and took out its content. A hamburger that wasn't too big or too small. Not only was it appetizing, it even looked beautiful.
Gulp.
Swallowing her saliva, Yoo Yeonha took a bite.
Nom, nom... Her mouth stopped moving.
She became surrounded by starlight.
It was a taste that temporarily isolated her from the rest of the world, a flavor of pure rapture that she had never tasted before.
"...Nyam."
After staying in a daze, she took another bite. The flavor of the burger exploded in her mouth.
Mentally, she was depressed and troubled, but her body was honest.
Her mouth was talking. That it had to eat this burger no matter what.
Amidst this chaos, Yoo Yeonha slowly ate the burger, savoring every single bite.
**
I returned to Chameleon Troupe's hideout. I didn't have any time to waste. I sent my bed to Yoo Yeonha as soon as I came back, then touched my bracelet-shaped re-entrance ticket to go back into the Tower.
"Wait, Coal!"
Setryn suddenly shouted. For the record, 'coal' referred to the color black. Setryn liked to call me by different black objects. For example, she's called me coal, petroleum, oil, blackie, and black cloud.
"Yeah?"
"Our magician wants to come live here too."
"Magician... you mean Brown?"
"Yep."
The seat of Brown, Hirano Arashi.
The master of destruction magic and stronghold creation.
That perverted woman wanted to come?
On one hand, I felt reassured, and on the other, I was worried.
"Then... tell her she can use my room for now. I don't have time to make another one."
