However, Lee Hyun’s mind soon wandered off from the thought. Though vengeance would be thrilling, he was afraid of the troubles to come in the future.
‘I don’t know how she will manage after I throw her into the sea!’
Still, in his internal rampage he paid careful attention to not wake up Seoyoon. Then a thought hit.
‘Let me adjust a bit to have you sleep more comfortably.’
Lee Hyun gently lifted up Seoyoon's head and placed it on his lap. After which, he observed Seoyoon's face in detail.
‘There’s gotta be an ugly corner somewhere.’
He still had not given up on his childish revenge.
The first time Lee Hyun saw Seoyoon's face was in the instructor’s cabin.
But because he noticed the ‘murderer’ mark during that event that he did not examined her beauty in more detail.
Nevertheless, a fragment of Seoyoon's face remained in his mind that he went to sculpt the Statue of Freya.
The image he had at that time was indeed beautiful.
But he did not know that the beauty exceeded what he had imagined.
The second meeting where he saw her was on the Plains of Despair, where her loveliness shone even more.
Then, during the times they risked their lives in the northern parts, he took peeks at her in his spare time.
But with each and every time he saw her, she continuously exuded attractiveness.
It wasn’t because Seoyoon was increasingly becoming more and more beautiful.
She was already beautiful from the beginning. It was because the more closely he got to look at her face, the more beauty he saw in her.
Eyes, nose, eyebrows, forehead, chin and lips.
There was no way to totaled up her features.
While wondering how dreadfully beautiful something was, a new attraction came into play whenever he took a look.
No matter how long he stared at her face, he could not get tired from the sight. With each and every sight to admire, he had no choice but to look!
Lee Hyun wanted to find flaws in Seoyoon's face.
He leaned in so close that he can feel each of her breath, a rare chance to do so since she was still sleeping.
‘Skin. Well, it’s perfect. Not one crease and I can’t even see a single pore. How can human skin have such milk like quality? Facial feature. Great. It’s the perfect golden ratio of placements if I was sculpturing. Long eyebrows…how does her hair even have such orderly placements?’
Trying to find any facial flaw in her, even if it was just a tiny ugly part in her, did not work out.
‘Fine, I admit the face is too good. What about other places…’
Lee Hyun’s eyes ran downward. He could roughly make out the figure through the dress. And here still, he could not find a fault.
Tall and slender, her body was also good.
The calves, thighs, and even the waist line were smooth.
Even the freaking toes exposed from the sandals were also beautiful!
Lee Hyun did not hate women.
He simply wanted to avoid having a relationship with one because there will be money to spend. But this idea has changed quite a bit after watching Seoyoon.
‘If it’s her then it’s prolly ok to treat her to a Kimbap shop. No wait. If I do that then it’ll go bad if she develops a habit of wanting to go there. Oh yea, I suppose I could treat her at an udon stall or sumthin!’ (??? sushi shop or something, google image sushi, but not sure what else it also encompasses.)
This was a somewhat of a significant change in him.
Lee Hyun was still giving Seoyoon a lap pillow even as the sun fully emerges.
The sunrise from the sea was a spectacular sight to behold.
Due to the fact that yesterday morning was filled with fog that he could not able to see such sunrise; but today, not a single cloud in the sky could be seen in this sunny weather.
From where the sky and the ocean attempting to touch one another, the sun seemingly burned them both as it rose.
“Ahh!”
Lee Hyun’s morale also rose.
Anyone looking at such beautiful sunrise can feel their commitment on the rise; Lee Hyun was not an exception.
‘This year I have to earn a lot more money!’
The sun had risen completely so there was no way to differentiate anymore.
Lee Hyun returned his gaze onto him lap and focused on the Seoyoon on it.
She somehow became prettier in the given sunlight. Due to the alcoholic facet, the view became slightly enhanced.
At this close distance, she looked as if she was a sleeping baby.
Lee Hyun bent down and picked up a nearby piece of wood. And his arm pulled out a small knife.
Sagaksagak.
He was trying to carve the soundly sleeping Seoyoon.
The handy skill he learned in Royal Road made it easier for him to sculpt.
Making Masterpiece, Classic, or Magnum was not possible, but regardless of the Artistic Values, he could still sculpt as long as he had the cardiovascular control and will.
Though still, in reality, he still didn’t have the Zahab carving knife.
Even if he gave it his best shot, in no way can he create exceptional works.
However, due to the innumerable experiences and commitment, the piece was becoming similar to what he wanted to make.
Lee Hyun was carefully carving the sleeping Seoyoon.
