Chapter 559: Our Hayan Has Changed (3)

It definitely wasn’t a bad turn of events. Jung Hayan began to concentrate like crazy again. She even refused to go back to the guild together.

One of the small changes that happened was that she began to show me how hard she was studying magic or tried to make the sexiest expression she could while flipping pages.

I couldn’t really understand if it really was a sexy expression, but she seemed very satisfied with it. it was only a little, but it seemed like she had regained some of her confidence back…

I was sure that she thought she must’ve found a way to overcome her complexity. Honestly, rather than sexy, she looked cute while looking so hard to read a book as hot as she could.

However, I had no choice but to make her believe that I wanted to support her growth.

‘Let’s increase your stats. Grow, grow, grow!’

I would do anything to remove Jung Hayan’s stagnation. It was only right for me to employ all means possible to restart her development.

Despite how busy I was, I made a promise with Jung Hayan to go out with her at least once a week. It was good for her to stay inside and study. However, it was also good to take a breath of fresh air once in a while.

When she was struggling, I could support her, and when she was losing motivation, I could inspire her.

After I promised to go out with her once a week, I could still remember how happy and how triumphant she looked. I thought she was thinking that I was falling for her intellectual charm, so after that, she began to carry her books with her everywhere…

There was no immediate growth, but I was sure that she would jump many stages like usual.

‘Let’s be a bit more patient.’

Even a little growth was helpful for Jung Hayan right then. Of course, it wasn’t only Jung Hayan’s growth I was focused on.

“How’s your training?”

“I don’t know. It seems to be changing little by little… Still, my stats are increasing slowly. Hyunsung-hyung is taking good care of me. You don’t have to worry too much.”

“You can do better, Deokgu.”

“Of course, I’m your little brother. I’m going to do well.”

I also focused on increasing the strength of Park Deokgu and all the other Blue Guild members, as well as the joint training. Amongst them, the joint continental training was performing better than expected, and I thought the shock therapy was extremely effective.

Most of the senior members who made up the training were warriors who fought in the war against the 27th Demon Corps, so there was an earnest atmosphere coming from them. I felt good that the training was going very well without much interference from me.

Of course, Kim Hyunsung was the one most excited about all of that.

He helped adventurers in other countries by reducing his own training hours and used that time to take care of those he saw potential in.

‘Communication is definitely important.’

All of that was only able to happen because Kim Hyunsung and I began to share our opinions honestly and had open conversations. To be honest, it wasn’t that difficult before, but we are definitely more productive now.

It was only natural that efficiency would be lower if I didn’t know what the other person was doing. I would’ve had to give extra thought each time I wanted to help or manage certain parts and wondered if I was doing the right thing while implementing my plans.

I used to hide what I knew and feigned ignorance, but at that moment, I didn’t have to do that anymore.

Kim Hyunsung could express what he needed, and all I needed to do was organize and send the things he needed. Of course, Kim Hyunsung seemed to feel sorry whenever he asked for something, but from my point of view, I felt that my job was much easier and more stable than before.

Above all, the biggest advantage was that I could do more things now.

The time I spent on Kim Hyunsung could be distributed to other areas. I opened a letter addressed to me.

[A problem occurred… Please check the overall training situation. If you’re busy, you can say ‘it’s okay or ‘it’s a bit disappointing.’ And would you be able to comment on the mentality training you’ve mentioned before? Finally, in the Continental Protection and Management Committee case, could you add in your own thoughts…I don’t think Mister Kiyoung has to take any responsibility. Of course, I know the advantages are great, but there’s a lot tied to this…]

“I still have to do it. What can I do?”

“I think I will have to check out the training myself… Well, they seem to be doing well, so I don’t think that will be much of a problem.’

After reading the letter, I quickly folded it and put it back on the desk.

Although there were means other than letters, they were still the most prominent method for communication. I guessed the technology we had developed in the 2nd Timeline still wasn’t being widely used, but that wasn’t an important detail.

Knocks soon echoed from the door. I told the person to come in, and the opened door revealed a face I recently saw more than Jung Hayan and Hyunsung.

“Team Leader Kim Mi-young.”

“I’m sorry, Vice Guild Master. I should’ve come earlier…”

“No, it’s fine. You always come to work at a normal time. I just woke up earlier than normal and came early, so you have nothing to be sorry about. You were working late yesterday, too.”

‘Everything is so much easier thanks to her.’

“It wasn’t that late, but…”

“If 2 in the morning is not late, when is it late? Extra payment is a given… but It still wouldn’t feel fair to you even if I gave you a bonus on top of a bonus.”

“Considering what the Vice Guild Master has done for me so far, this is a given. Thank you for your consideration, but you don’t have to take care of me like that. For me, you are like my benefactor.”

“Compared to you, I didn’t do much. I just scouted someone like you who was so capable. Come to think of it… How are the kids doing these days?”

“Mh… they both recently said that they wanted to be adventurers…”

“…”

“…”

“Yes, that is a bit worrisome.”

“Of course, it’s good to have enough power to protect yourself… I’m just a little worried as a mother…”

“I might sound a bit cold, but on a continent like this, a person with a knife may be safer than a person with a pen. If the children are determined, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to let them participate in the Blue Guild youth program. It would be much better than starting at a regular dungeon without anything. I’ll tell the person in charge in advance, so feel free to let me know if you make that decision.”

“Thank you.”

“You don’t have to be thankful and sorry every time. Then, first of all…”

“Yes, I don’t have any other schedule for you because you are going out with Miss Jung Hayan today. Other things for you to check are these documents about the Northern Forward Base Construction Plan and…”

“Ah, okay. Let me check them first.”

“Yes.”

“…”

“…”

“Completion will take four years…”

“I tried to shorten the time as much as I could, but considering the size and quality that you wanted, this was the minimum. If we shorten the period more, there is a high possibility of drawbacks… But most of all, there are not enough mana crystals for the northern forward base. We’re mining as fast as we can, but we’re still struggling because it’s not a material whose volume can be easily increased. The completion of a typical wall could be done a little earlier, but in the case of implanting towers everywhere…”

“Yes, of course, I know that constructing towers at a fast pace isn’t optimal, but I still want you to speed the process up a little bit. If the problem is securing enough mana crystals, we could try borrowing the northern countries’ labor force. I think the tools for mining could also be improved, and it would be a good idea to get Miss Ahyoung to help us with that.”

“We are already in the process of working with the northern countries about the workforce, but most of them are having difficulties.”

“Hmmmmm…”

“I’ll try to come up with a solution.”

“I think it would be a good idea for me to think of one as well. It’s going to be difficult, but I would be grateful if you could complete that project in 3 years. Anyway, thank you for your hard work. I’ll check all the plans tomorrow and give you more detailed comments.”

“Duly noted.”

“Okay… What’s next?”

“I was thinking about setting up a meeting with the management committee…”

“Oh, that sounds good. It was about time to do that. Please take care of it on your own. I would appreciate it if you paid particular attention to the media.”

“I’ll make sure to do as you asked.”

After that, Kim Mi-young asked more questions and gave me a set of different reports.

For sure, she was fantastic at her job.

Even though it was not her area of expertise, she successfully managed all the projects assigned to her. I definitely picked the right person. Of course, she worked on non-sensitive tasks with her team, but was there anyone more passionate than her in terms of the guild’s administrative processing?

Considering her other skills, she was basically a cheat character.

“And this is the conclusion of my reports. It looks like Miss Jung Hayan is waiting for you outside… Should I tell her to come inside your office?”

“No, thank you. Let’s go outside together. I think that would be better… Oh, and you did a great job today.”

“Thank you.”

I saw that she slightly raised her glasses with her fingers.

I began to wonder if the intellectual image that Jung Hayan wanted to portray was the image Kim Mi-Young had.

An intelligent career woman. I suddenly became worried that Hayan might explode after seeing us coming out together. But I thought it was unlikely since, after the troops, Jung Hayan was super cautious about her actions.

As expected, she was quietly sitting down. And I didn’t know how she met Han Sora, but they were chatting with each other. It was kind of a strange sight, but it also looked natural at the same time.

Han Sora was brightly smiling at Hayan. I could say with full confidence that Han Sora was the one who benefited the most from Hayan calming down.

It was the first time I saw her smile so brightly after joining the Blue Guild.

It didn’t take long for her to see us, causing her to naturally wave her hand at us. Sure enough, there was an old book in her right hand, and she was even wearing red glasses that day.

She looked kind of cute, so I almost laughed, but I thought she might feel bad, so I just greeted her like usual.

At that moment, team leader Kim Mi-young suddenly fell forward.

“Ah.”

There was no other reason. She just lost her footing. My arm just naturally went out to support her to make sure she didn’t fall down.

“Thank you, Vice Guild Master.”

“As expected, you seem a little tired. Team leader Kim Mi-young, please don’t do anything else today and take a good rest.”

“I will.”

“Don’t just say that.”

“Yes, as you say…”

I immediately realized the situation she and I were in.

Noticing that I was basically hugging Kim Mi-Young, I quickly took my hands off of her. Jung Hayan was watching us. She might react badly to the fact that I was close to a woman who had the image that she wanted.

No matter how calm Jung Hayan had become, I was very worried about how she would act.

Sure enough, I began to hear voices coming towards us.

“Team leader, a-ar-are you okay?”

“Yes, thank you.”

‘What’s this?’

“That’s a relief.”

‘What’s wrong with you? Fuck. You’re scaring me.’

“You should have been more careful…”

‘Why are you suddenly acting like that…Hayan, fuck. Don’t be like that. You’re even scarier now.’

I didn’t even know if it was sincere or not, but she definitely looked worried. She paired her kind words with a concerned face.

I was surprised, but Han Sora continued smiling quietly. And still, Jung Hayan’s growth was stagnant.
