“I think that’s a horrible plan.”
“Can you imagine the Geomchis taking their tops off while shouting ‘our sword is invincible’ at the top of their lungs?”
Suffice to say, the imagined sight was terrible.
And the embarrassment follow was even worse!
At this moment, they were scared of the Geomchis action more than those of the mobs.
The embarrassment at this level would always retain at the back of their mind.
Irene pleaded expressively.
“Weed nim. Can you please do something about this?”
Weed shook his head.
“How can I tell my Sa-hyeongs to dial it down? That’s like subjecting them to an even larger indignation and killing the momentum.”
“Hyuu!”
Everyone groaned, fully knowing they couldn’t do anything have the Geomchis tone things down.
Seechwi at this time finally gave in.
‘I don’t think I’ll ever understand them no matter how many psychiatric evaluation they’re subjected to.’
Until now she had been observing the Geomchis’ mindset, but it was considerably difficult. She struggled on this far more so than that of her doctoral dissertation.
They’re exciting like true men, and then somehow sometimes turned into childish clowns.
It was as if the only thing they knew of were swords and battles, while clueless on how to appeal themselves to the opposite sex.
Their hidden complexity was a current that was impossible to determine its flow.
Nonetheless, one thing was for sure, anyone that could understand the Geomchis bizarre nature was just as twisted as they are.
Weed said.
“But this hype is a necessity.”
Surka lamented.
“But do we really need this…”
Romuna replied shortly.
“Somehow this hype seems to be so troublesome.”
Mapan intervened.
“I think…the best way to decrease this embarrassment is to get the maximum distance from the Geomchis as possible.”
Weed agreed with his opinion after a moment of thought.
“I’m in favor, what about you guys?”
Maylon, Irene, Pale, and Seechwi answered simultaneously almost immediately.
“As far away as possible!”
“Don’t even turn your heads, just pretend you didn’t know!”
“We can reach the top of a hill then speed up when coming down the slope.”
“Chwiik. We got to go.”
Their instantaneous agreement showed how desperate they were.
Coming together!
There were a lot of embarrassing moments in everybody’s lives. But when a situation such as hanging out with the Geomchis came forth, it was best to turn tail and run rather than playing along.
And so, a secret countermeasure was put in place.
Seukseuk.(brushing)
Yurin was still sitting on the ground painting in her sketchbook.
She had been drawing without taking a single break to increase her skill proficiency.
Zephyr had slipped away from his colleagues meeting regarding the Geomchis and pondered at the sight before him.
‘I wonder how she lived to trust her brother so much.’
A little while back, Weed’s words to Yurin were kept to a minimal, yet somehow, the message from one to another was well understood.
Her parents died when she was young, so it was tough having a steady home.
‘I don’t how anyone lived without money. Even the dolls I had were foreign made.’
Zephyr had never first hand experienced any kind of poverty.
When he was a kid, instead of toys to play with, he was handed jewelry and many things that shouldn’t be given to a kid.
Only times where he’d went without money was when he didn’t receive his allowance for not cleaning his room, or had his platinum credit card taken away for a slip in his grades.
His one crushing trauma was when he didn’t have the money to go to night clubs with his friends the week after.
‘She is such a nice and pretty girl to live such a heart wrenching life.’
Zephyr couldn’t endure watching from the side.
He didn’t know anything regarding Yurin and was not appropriate to console her.
He though she should at the very least smile a lot more while enjoying Royal Road, but now only to encounter an embarrassing moment brought on by the Geomchis.
Zephyr said to her kindly.
“It’s alright. It’ll be fine.”
“Hm?”
