Chapter 320: Ulleungdo Patriotic Party (2)
Chapter 320: Ulleungdo Patriotic Party (2)
Yoon Iseon was a severe Goblin fanatic.
She favored the idol known as Goblin and joined the Secret Society following his suggestion.
So when Yumir casually dropped a bombshell in front of her, Yoon Iseon couldn’t help but explode.
“Did you really do that?”
“Yes.”
Ignoring Yumir, who was lying face down in a corner with her head bowed, Yoon Iseon came right up to me and began questioning.
“How?”
“I don’t think it’s something to discuss in front of others. After all, it was Yumir’s ‘first time.’”
“Hmm. That’s important.”
Hyeon Se-rin approached Yumir, who was lying down, helped her into an upright position, and pressed her cheeks with her hands.“You really should tell us how it happened.”
“…….”
“Oh my, if you don’t speak up, we’ll make it even more difficult for you.”
Yoon Hye-ra also approached and started to torment Yumir, who was stubbornly keeping her mouth shut.
“Why are you so sullen? You were the one who brought it up.”
“Now that I’ve done it, I’m regretting it.”
“That’s why you need to stop doing things like that.”
How many times had Yumir suddenly rushed into things?
She still didn’t seem to realize that these actions could lead to her self-destruction or crossing a line.
Of course, the fact that it’s related to our ‘patriotism’ or confined to that was certainly a positive thing, but once again, Yumir had caused trouble.
“Yumir. I can’t let this slide. Tell us in detail. Did you do it with the teacher, or did you really do it with Goblin?”
“Uh, um….”
As the three of them stared at her from different directions, Yumir looked at me.
It wasn’t a signal for help but a signal asking if it was okay to speak.
“I’m fine with it. As long as you are.”
“Th-Then.”
Yumir cleared her throat and straightened her posture.
Meanwhile, I took a short break and grabbed the two dragon orbs lying on the ground, gathering mana.
“Then, I’ll tell you.”
After taking a deep breath, Yumir said.
“On Sejong Island, outdoors, on a cliff overlooking the sea, I created a chair with mana and did it there.”
“Wow.”
As expected from a sudden action expert.
At Yumir’s explicit and revealing words, not only Yoon Iseon but also the two women who had been egging her on unknowingly took a step back from Yumir.
“F-First time… outdoors?”
“Th-The cliff… oh, maybe there was a cave below the cliff or something, right?”
“No. It was just right on top of the cliff overlooking the precipice.”
“Wow….”
Yoon Hye-ra alternately looked at me and Yumir, letting out a hollow laugh.
“You two really went all out from the start, huh?”
“Why are you surprised? I was just confirming the effect of the barrier.”
I pointed to the empty sky.
“Even though we’re out in the open like this, looking up at the night sky while chatting, we can still talk freely about the Secret Society, thanks to that barrier.”
Visual distortion, invisibility, soundproofing.
Even if you looked at it from satellite images, it didn’t look any different from the surroundings, and even if someone came to investigate, they wouldn’t sense anything unless they directly touched the barrier.
It’s like a magic mirror; you couldn’t see inside from the outside, but you could see everything outside from within.
Within that barrier, what happened was nothing more than a patriotic act for boosting the birth rate and international peace.
“So, so, what exactly did you do outside?”
“Um…. We were both transformed at the time, into the Platinum Sun and the Goblin.”
Yumir extended her hands forward and began rubbing them together with her wet hands.
“We just opened up the necessary parts and clung to each other. Since we were in clothes, it was easy to get out.”
“……And the mask?”
“It felt something like this.”
I placed my hand on my face and activated my mana.
Soon, a Goblin mask, like the one Yumir wore, appeared, covering my lower face up to my nose.
“We had to make eye contact.”
“Wow….”
“And the mouth?”
“Um… did we use our mouths?”
“You can’t forget that.”
“Hehe, we did it so many times afterward…. Oh, but, Iseon.”
Yumir reached out her hand toward Yoon Iseon.
“But, I only did it with the Goblin once. That first time.”
“And after that?”
“…I’ve been sneaking into the teacher’s house every day…?”
Yumir wiggled her fingers in embarrassment.
“Hmm, hmm. That’s a commendable attitude. Doing it every day is not enough.”
“Honestly, if it weren’t for the Secret Society’s work, and if we were still alive, I would seriously be by your side 24/7.”
“What are you saying? You weakling.”
“…I can do it three times more than you.”
“What’s the point of fighting over meaningless things?”
After mediating the argument that was about to start between the two officers, I turned to Yoon Iseon.
“If you want to do it with the mask on, I can do that. But if you use mana while doing it, it’ll be a bit tough.”
“Tough, how?”
“Using mana activates your body, so it’ll be much more sensitive than usual.”
“Oh, then what I did back then…?”
“The sensitivity would have been quite high. Of course, you were using mana too, so the conditions would have been the same.”
Even if it’s between ability users, there’s a big difference in whether one used mana to enhance the body or not.
“Teacher. So, how do you usually do it?”
“Without mana.”
“…What happens if you do it with mana?”
“You’d practically die. It’s like passing out and falling asleep.”
“…Uh, excuse me.”
Yumir’s face turned pale for a moment.
“When I pass out usually….”
“Sometimes it’s when I use mana, but most of the time, I don’t. But there’s also this, right? You’re just more sensitive.”
“Ugh….”
Yumir sank into the water.
She buried her face halfway in the water, only her eyes visible above, as she quietly closed her mouth.
“So, Iseon. What do you want to do?”
“……Give me a moment.”
Yoon Iseon stood up.
“…Transform.”
And then, as she activated her mana, Yoon Iseon’s body began to glow pink.
Saaah.
As the mist cleared, Yoon Iseon grew larger.
Her hair color darkened, and Yoon Iseon fully transformed into a fire fox, becoming a form that could rival the other three without any shame.
“Teacher, how do I look?”
“You look beautiful.”
“…It’s a bit embarrassing when you say it so bluntly.”
“Is it really embarrassing when you’re showing it off so openly in front of me?”
“…Hmph.”
Yoon Iseon sat down next to me.
Our shoulders touched, and I could feel her rough breathing right beside me.
“I usually try to keep calm, but she keeps showing off like that, and it made me a bit mad.”
“Hmm, hmm.”
“…Uh, can I ask you something?”
“Ask me anything.”
Yoon Iseon, still glaring at Yumir, who was still submerged in the water, turned her head towards me.
“…Is it considered adultery if I do it with Director Do after doing it with the Goblin?”
“What?”
“Then, isn’t Yumir committing adultery?”
“Hey!”
Yumir jumped out of the water.
“How is that adultery!”
“You’re doing it with both the Goblin and Do Ji-hwan. That’s a two-timing adulteress.”
“That’s not it!”
“Is that how it is?”
“Hmm… It might be.”
Yoon Hye-ra and Hyeon Se-rin joined Yoon Iseon in ganging up on Yumir.
“E-rank student Yumir is having a fling with Librarian Do Ji-hwan, and Platinum Sun Yumir is having a fling with Villain Goblin. What an octopus!”
“Did you know about this?”
“I knew, but from what I heard, she was testing the waters until her identity was fully revealed.”
“That was the same for the teacher, wasn’t it?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
I confidently raised my hand.
“I two-timed both Yumir and Platinum Sun.”
“…If the teacher admits that, I become an adulteress!”
“You’re already an adulteress. Everyone here who’s patriotic with me is an adulteress.”
Baek Seol-hee, Yumir, Yoon Hye-ra, and Hyeon Se-rin—all of them were patriotic adulteresses.
“Well… still, don’t be too harsh. Yumir approached because she knew Do Ji-hwan was the Goblin.”
“Ugh… this is like giving someone a disease and then giving them the medicine.”
“That’s what happens when you provoke the wrong person for no reason, Iseon.”
I placed my hand on Yoon Iseon’s head.
“Whether it’s the Secret Society or ability users, I have only one thing to say.”
“What is it?”
“Act according to your heart.”
“…….”
Yoon Iseon closed her eyes for a moment at those words, then looked at me with a determined face.
“Teacher.”
“Yes.”
“I’m going to Jeju Island this time.”
“…You too?”
“Yes. I heard today that I’m also going for the summer camp.”
I see.
So Yoon Iseon was joining us on Jeju Island.
“You’re going to Jeju Island too, right, teacher?”
“Of course.”
“Then….”
Yoon Iseon fidgeted with her fingers before extending one hand toward me.
“Is it okay if my first time isn’t on Ulleungdo but on Jeju Island?”
“…Is there a difference?”
“Yes. Well, it’s a bit awkward to say this, but…”
Yoon Iseon made a resolute face, briefly glaring at Yumir before speaking again.
“…When I started dating a guy, I wanted to go on a trip to Jeju Island with him.”
“A romantic dream.”
“…Is that not possible?”
“It’s possible. But I have one question.”
I removed my mask and asked Yoon Iseon.
“In Jeju Island, do you want to do it with Do Ji-hwan, or with the Goblin?”
“…….”
“I’ll do whatever you want. What do you want?”
“Then.”
Yoon Iseon hooked her pinky finger with mine and slowly opened her mouth.
“Dating with Do Ji-hwan, marriage with the Goblin.”
“…Two-timing?”
“Yes. I’m going to go all out this time.”
Yoon Iseon twisted her lips into a smile as she looked at the stunned Yumir.
“Teacher, you know that, right? Unlike Yumir, I’m still a newbie.”
“…….”
“I was a high school girl until last year.”
“……!”
Ah.
“Isn’t something new better than something used?”
Now I understood why people say you shouldn’t mess with an otaku’s favorite character.
“Right?”
“T-Teacher…!”
Yumir, trembling and looking like she was about to cry, placed her hand on her chest and opened her mouth.
“I still have one new thing left…!”
“You’ve got to be kidding me.”
Thud.
I threw the dragon orb at Yumir’s forehead.
“There’s no need to compete over that!”
Whether the meteor counter went up or not, I had to say this.
“If you want to do that, you can do it whenever you want!”
“…Oh my, really?”
Yoon Hye-ra blushed and looked embarrassed.
“Then, shall we… What are you doing? Why are you reacting like that?”
“…Nyang hyang hyang.”
Hyeon Se-rin awkwardly turned her gaze away.
“Well, you know.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Hyeon Se-rin.
“…Even a patriot can lay down their patriotism and have fun sometimes, right?”
