Chapter 667: Over the Wall (3)
In fact, the rice cake was sprinkled after the conversation with Cha Hee-ra ended. It was right after she said that she would have to fight with someone.
Sora was forced to talk to Jung Hayan with half-hearted feelings about gambling.
It was because Hayan had to feel like she had hit the wall. It was simple. She had no choice but to do what she could since the mock war’s results had already been decided.
She would’ve been a little better if she considered each and that would arise from different aspects, but frankly, she wasn’t that free.
Was it because I couldn’t take Park Deokgu’s work seriously?
‘It’s unfortunate.’
She would have always opposed me unconditionally, but she had no choice but to ask Han Sora to save the continent one more time.
Cha Hee-ra was also an important person, but considering the importance of her role in the last battle, the reality was that she had no choice but to give Jung Hayan a few spaces.
Depending on how far Jung Hayan grew, the probability would inevitably be different, so we had to make a firm decision from here on out.
Honestly, if Han Sora wasn’t there, it couldn’t be done. The buildup had been built up from the beginning through her.
It was Cha Hee-ra who informed Han Sora of the unidentified genius wizard Park Mijin that took her out without being able to resist, and it was also Han Sora who was constantly checking Jung Hayan’s state.
I was also very afraid, but I was actively leading the situation to see if I shouldn’t give up my dream of strengthening her.
Of course, the fear memorized in my body wouldn’t disappear, but at least the situation was better than before.
Didn’t I say that the first time was always difficult, and the second time was easier? As long as she was already rushing towards a single goal, it seemed that she couldn’t see the danger in front of her.
‘Well, the wall is big…’
It seemed like it should be checked slowly, so I activated the telescope, and what I saw was Jung Hayan and Han Sora sharing the story.
I told them to spill some more information while eating today, so maybe they were having a conversation related to that order.
Based on the atmosphere, it must’ve been a while since the story was carefully told, yet Jung Hayan was still there.
It was exactly the reason why I checked the telescope from time to time.
For several days, her head seemed to be unclogged, and her naked body, which didn’t come out of the room, caught my eyes.
Wasn’t it already a hero-level quest just by asking anyone to take Jung Hayan out of the room and share the story?
From Jung Hayan’s appearance, I could see how desperately she had studied. I felt a little provoked, but there was no other way than that to reach Jung Hayan’s level in the first round.
Of course, I heard a voice right away. It was trembling, but at least it seemed to have entered a state of heavy growth.
‘I should have seen it from the beginning…’
-H-h-how… How did she win? That’s…
-I… Well… I don’t know. It was a secret mock battle, so it wasn’t even known to the outside world. I also gave a little bit to the team leader Kim Mi-young… I only know that. I don’t know how the battle progressed, but as for the story I heard, it was said that it was that woman who participated.
-Park Mijin.
-Yes, she seemed to be more talented than I thought. Even if it’s a mock battle… That red-haired woman couldn’t be easily… Maybe she has skills up her sleeves. No matter how strong she is, it is difficult for a wizard to win against her. You won’t have time to cast. Maybe interpersonal warfare is her specialty. There are those kinds of wizards, after all. Even for Jung Hayan, I’m certain that that’s possible.
-But…
-It won’t be too much for you. You’re a genius, Jung Hayan, and I’m sure the story’s full of inflated content… It’s common to exaggerate a bit. You don’t have to worry about it.
-So, am I also going to be mocking up with Cha Heera? Wh-when? when…
-I don’t know. Probably not soon. Since I said I would contact you, I think it will be best to prepare from now on.
-I-I can also win, right?
-Sure. Park… There’s no way you can’t do what Park Mijin did. You will definitely be able to win. And… It’s an important mock battle. You have to try hard. You also need to be prepared. I will help you in ways.
‘We’re getting somewhere now.’
I felt it every time I saw her, but she certainly deserved to be a puppet master.
From her experience of walking on a thin line every day, it seemed to me that it was ideal in some ways.
Honestly, I didn’t know if it was really right to move her out.
Perhaps, even if she moved out, wouldn’t she be transferred from the Jung Hayan anger response team to the Grand Wizard Anger Control Committee?
If I offered her a high annual salary, I was certain that she would give out a happy scream.
Honestly, even if I was going to another area with my nerves…
‘It doesn’t seem like Hayan will leave it as is.’
There was no meaning to move her from Jung Hayan’s side.
As much as I already saw her as her unparalleled friend, I could be sure that her role wouldn’t change much from the current one, even if she did get transferred.
‘Sora… I wish she’s happy, at least… It’s very pitiful.’
-Practice… firmly… Yes, I have to try hard.
-It wasn’t revealed externally, and it wasn’t an official announcement, but this is really important… The reason for promoting the mock battle with Jung Hayan immediately after the mock battle between Cha Heera and Park Mijin was carried out…
-What is it? Why?
-So…
-What is the reason for it?
-I’ll tell you. I will tell you now. So… A little special mission… Yes, he said he was trying to entrust a special task… an important job that will be done with the Vice Guild Master…
-Is that so?
-It’s not certain. I am not totally sure… Maybe everyone thinks that way because there will inevitably be a mission that a wizard should face in the upcoming high-level warfare. In order to select the line that meets the mission… Of course, it can’t be denied that the Vice Guild Master loves Jung Hayan, but this is work. It would be natural to consider the more powerful wizard as the better candidate.
She kept hiccuping, but she didn’t seem to be aware of it. Didn’t that show how nervous she was?
Honestly, Han Sora’s courage was also amazing. In order to achieve the dream of moving out, her appearance was the same as a warrior encountering the Demon King.
-Will I be able to win? Cha Hee-ra… I really hate her… I really, really hate her…
-You’ll probably be able to win without difficulty. Park Mijin also did it, right? Do you have any weaknesses?
-I really hate it because it’s Cha Hee-ra, but I hate Park Mijin m-m-more than Cha Heera. Park Mijin… I really hate her.
-Me too… I don’t like her very much. She’s around the Vice Guild Master a lot… I hate rumors, but I think she has some other purpose as well…
-Well, it’s that, right?
-Yes, it’s too funny to say that she just popped out one day… Maybe she could be the same person as the devil contractors last time. It would be better to be a little more careful… Because the Vice Guild Master trusts people too much.
-It would be nice if it was like that… If you are a bad person…
-…
-You can kill.
-You can’t kill. Yes, if you kill…
-Will you do it together with me then?
-…
-You will, right?
-Anyway… The mock battle with Cha Heera comes first.
-Will you do it together with me?
-It’s better to focus on work…
-Let’s do it together. Together.
-Yes, of course…
I didn’t know how their conversation was suddenly transformed into a plan to murder Park Mijin.
Jung Hayan was tearing her hair with her nails and seemed to be a little more stressed than I thought.
Could it be that she thought that the task of fighting Cha Hee-ra was a little unexpected and that it wouldn’t be easy?
She probably thought that it was an impossible task for herself. No, it was almost certain that she felt that way.
Her expression was darker than before, and she looked more anxious than when the story started.
I didn’t know if it’s because of the memories she had of her, but she was aware that Cha Hee-ra was a difficult opponent.
Just like when a beast met a beast that was more ferocious than herself, Jung Hayan was terrified.
Of course, Hayan was an important person, and Oppa loved and cherished her, but anyone could be convinced that Cha Hee-ra was the strongest. Cha Hee-ra was a difficult opponent for Jung Hayan. She must’ve been a person who judged that even she wouldn’t easily win, so it was natural for her to show such anxiety.
‘How did she win?’
Or something like…
‘What skills did she use? Who the hell is Park Mijin… How can that be?’
Perhaps even…
‘Can I win? Can it be done? I lost last time… I think I’ll lose again this time.’
They all had the same expression. It was scary to watch Hayan scratching her head so much that blood flowed out of her scalp, and I immediately saw Sora holding onto Jung Hayan’s arms tightly.
-You will be able to do it.
‘That’s right, Hayan. In terms of stats, you are more advantageous.’
-Please calm down, Jung Hayan. It will definitely be successful.
-If not…
-That can’t happen. Even if it doesn’t work, there are other ways… Also, as a result, the Vice Guild Master won’t be able to leave Jung Hayan alone.
‘Right. That’s right.’
-Ooh…
-Don’t be too burdened.
‘No, I have to bear it. I’m really sorry, but… Now I feel the weights on my shoulder.
Originally, one had to get hurt to grow. When would Hayan go through such an ordeal again?’
-N-no…
‘Still, I feel sorry that you’re crying so sadly.’
-There aren’t many days left until the two of you can live happily together, right? You just need to work harder for a little bit longer. Yes, it’s okay. Just a little more, and we’ll…
-Huhu, Sora will be next door to me, together, right?
‘That’s too harsh for Sora, Hayan.’
-…
-Right?
-…
-You’re not leaving, are you?
-Yeah…
It was just for a moment, but I saw how Sora’s face turned pale.
Her expression said that something was wrong. What did Han Sora think as she looked at the ceiling with her eyes that seemed as empty as the void?
-I’ll do my best, Sora. Cha Hee-ra… I can beat Cha Hee-ra. Park Mijin can also be killed.
-Yes… Wait…?
-I’ll never let go of him… No, no, no.
-…
-Absolutely, never… He won’t be taken away from me. It will never… never… never…
The sight of Han Sora’s body shivering was reflected in my vision. Had I also been there, wouldn’t I have had the same reaction?
It really felt like it had been a long time since I last saw her.
[Noona, come prepared properly. You should think that you’re fighting with Kim Hyunsing and prepare accordingly.]
It was too hard to send such a message.

“I am always preparing properly, dear.”
