He was older than others, and to add on, he dropped high school and took Gum-Jung-Go-Si, so he can’t expect to live in normal ways like others.
“To think attending a university would be this painful.”
The certificate was more likely to become useless then helpful, besides being a nice wall decoration.
It was when Lee-Hyun picked up a camcorder, a few necessary notes and headed out.
He saw Seo-Yoon standing in front of the door.
Because summer vacation just ended, the weather was still hot.
She who wore casually with jeans and white T-shirts, felt strange. Compared to her blinding beauty, the clothes she wore were absolutely normal, and she looked even more innocent and beautiful.
When wearing a party dress she as pretty as a goddess, and even when wearing casual clothes, she still attracts attention.
Her beauty was on the level of shining even when wearing any type of clothes! Lee-Hyun brusquely talked to her.
“Going to walk to university with me?”
Seo-Yoon lightly nodded.
She put in a bit of effort by going to Lee-Hyun’s house solely for the reason that she wanted to go to the university with him.
Lee-Hyun replied bitterly.
“Fine, do whatever you want.”
He bloomed his imagination of having a snail bride.
(TN: There's a Korean folk story where a snail transforms into a human at nights and do all house chores for the farmer who treated it/her nicely.)
A innocent and kind girl who cooks for Lee-Hyun in secret out of love! But, when he looks at Seo-Yoon, he couldn’t help but have his dream be shattered.
‘She must’ve cooked for me without much meaning.
I cooked for her at times, so she must be doing this to pay back for what she received.’
Lee-Hyun could’ve waited for the bus at the bus station with Seo-Yoon and walked to the university, but after he started to hunt at Las Phalanx, he decided to ride on the bus to save time. The undead who have their mana supply cut from their necromancers weaken and turn back into a corpse or crumble away.
To hunt longer and save at least one more undead, riding the bus was necessary.
“L-Loo-Look at that girl!”
“So beautiful. I’ve never seen a girl as beautiful as her.”
When he was with Seo-Yoon, people who came to watch, crowded so much to the point that the road gets blocked.
Lee-Hyun got used to such attention, so he only felt uncomfortable.
“There’re too many shortcomings going to university with you. Too many people come to watch you.”
Upon hearing that, Seo-Yoon wore a cap and a mask. After that, people let out disappointing sighs and went about their ways.
Soon, the bus they were waiting for arrived.
Lee-Hyun used his bus card and moved to go to an empty seat, but Seo-Yoon only stood still.
“What? Don’t you have a transportation card?” Seo-Yoon nodded.
When would she ever get another chance to ride a bus? Since it was her first time riding a bus, she didn’t have a transportation card. She only now learned that she needed to use the card to ride the bus.
Seo-Yoon wrote on a paper and showed it to him.
It’s my first time riding a bus, you see...
Lee-Hyun paid for hers as well and they sat together at empty seats.
“Erm……”
“Next time, you have to carry around a transportation card, ok? If you have it, you can ride on a bus and you can ride on subways too.”
Lee-Hyun sincerely advised her.
Upon hearing that, Seo-Yoon opened up her wallet thinking, maybe.
An unbelievable amount of cash and three credit cards. Black premium, diamond, and platinum cards! Annual fee alone is over 1000000 won for the cards, so of course they had a transportation card option amongst their many benefits that they had.
When Seo-yoon showed him those cards, Lee Hyun shook out of rage.
‘I got done in.’ Her cruelty of making him pay for the bus and showing him her transportation cards afterward! No one but Seo-Yoon could do such a dreadful thing.
It was about when they arrived at the university and Lee Hyun was headed to the lecture room to take his first class. Seo-Yoon followed him.
“What? Did you sign up for capsule engineering?” Seo-Yoon only nodded twice. They took a 3 hours long lecture together, and shared a lunch box together in a grassy quad under warm sunlight.
Seo-Yoon followed him when he headed to listen to his next lecture.
“By any chance, did you also sign up for social structure theory in virtual reality?” She nodded again. Seo-Yoon picked out the lectures Lee Hyun took and signed up for them only.
“Hyung, it’s been long.”
“Hello Oppa!” Back Soon-Jo, Lee Yoo-Jung, Min So-Ra, and Choi Sang-Joon also signed up for social class theory in virtual reality, so they could meet in the lecture room.
After the lecture was over, all students gathered in the great lecture room.
“As I have promised, we will check your assignments today.”
Lee-Hyun sat at the front line in the lecture room with over 300 students.
‘It’s hard to give an F to a student who always sits at a front seat.’ The seat to get the professor’s favor! Lee-Hyun, Seo-Yoon and 12 other students sat at the very front.
“Then, please come up one by one starting from the left.”
Professor Joo Jong-Hoon played the students’ camcorders in order.
The camcorder played a scene with a sunny sky and blue sea with parents and nieces laughing.
“Family trip at a resort…… Must’ve been fun.”
