Chapter 405
Chapter 405 Winter
vacation was like a dream for students who were tired of living as hunters. In Japan alone, festivals such as Sapporo’s famous ‘Snow Woman’s Snow Festival’ and Osaka’s ’30 Leg Octopus Takoyaki’ have already been so popular that they are full of people.
However, the place Ishiu and Sakura visited together during winter vacation was not a festival, but a dojo.
Of course, that didn’t mean that the scenery of the dojang was pushed aside by the festival. Sitting on the wide floor and watching the snow piled up outside was quite tasteful. I was also looking forward to the hot pot that spouts hot steam on the table.
‘Yes…’
Seeing Sakura’s parents laughing across the table, Lee Si-woo couldn’t help but be so nervous that he swallowed his saliva.
‘Something has come.’
Siwoo Lee was not an idiot. Of course, he knew what it meant to invite himself to a place like this during the winter break.
“That hot pot… smells so good. So, the smell of mushrooms…”
No matter how awkward it is, what are you talking about right now? At this important moment, you’re not very gluttonous, and the only thing you bring up is food. Wasn’t there a better topic?
“It is of high quality. Isn’t it nice to be able to eat such delicious mushrooms even in winter?”
However, Lee Si-woo felt grateful to Sakura’s mother who was willing to accept such an awkward question.
“That’s right…”
“Oh, Siwoo, are you nervous? Don’t be nervous already~”
Sakura smiled like a fox, saying Kyo-Kyo, as if even Lee Si-Woo’s tense appearance was cute.
“You must be busy, but making time like this… The reason why I prepared this place is because I wanted to say thank you to Siwoo-kun.”
Sakura’s father, who had been watching the relationship between the two until now, smiled in relief.
“I see. Since Shiu-kun came, the dojo has become lively and Sakura has more days to smile.”
However, Shi-woo Lee couldn’t nod his head right away even when Sakura’s parents expressed their gratitude.
He was grateful as well. It was Sakura who rushed to Shin Yoo-sung and the party that was in crisis, and it was Sakura who always supported her.
“no.”
After deep thought, Siwoo Lee opened his mouth.
“A word of thanks…”

The eyes of Sakura and the three parents turned to Siwoo Lee. Everyone was waiting for Lee Si-woo’s next words.
However, as he was about to say the next word, an indescribable embarrassment stirred in Lee Si-woo’s heart. His lips were itching to spit out words that didn’t suit him.
However, Siwoo Lee finally spit it out.
“Rather, I should… tell Sakura.”
“Huh~ Siwoo, you to me? Where should I listen to it? What?”
Sakura responded with a mischievous face, even crossing her arms with Lee Siu. However, Lee Si-woo floated with a very sincere face and voice.
“That’s… Before I met you, I was a prickly person. There was no place to accept others, and no one approached.”
Because his real self was a professionally trained murder weapon since childhood. He acted the exact opposite.
“That’s why I played the opposite of me, who is bright and cheerful… kind to everyone. Because the real me is a gloomy guy with a bad mood.”
Sakura didn’t answer anything. Ishiu couldn’t see Sakura’s face because he only looked at the table. For now, it was best to just spit out the thoughts I had stored.
“But it is different now. …No, I want to change. I don’t think it suits me, but I want to try a little harder.”
Bubble bubbling –
only the sound of boiling hotpot is full. There was only silence outside, where the snow was piled up softly. On the floor, Siwoo Lee’s voice was the only one.
However, just as Lee Siu was about to say the next word after catching his breath, Sakura asked.
“…why?”
It was a short single word that implied why Lee Si-woo wanted to change and why he thought he was trying hard.
Well, I’ve already gone this far, but there was no reason why I couldn’t answer that level of question.
Because he likes Sakura. Because I didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
“To give up saying that you are not ready, you are Sakura to me…”
However, Siwoo Lee’s candid confession was interrupted by a sudden attack from his index finger.
“Enough…”
Sakura’s index finger rested on Lee Siu’s lips. I stopped speaking frankly. Only then was Siu Lee able to see Sakura’s face.
Sakura’s ears and cheeks were too red, and her eyes were too big.
“What are you, Sakura? Are you ashamed of yourself now?”
Sakura couldn’t easily answer Lee Siu’s playful sarcasm. He murmured quietly with his wet eyes closed.
“That… I like it so much…”
Sakura’s parents looked at each other with a happy expression at the love affair between the two, which even made chicken meat grow. Today, the two parents had many things they wanted to ask Lee Si-woo, but it seemed like they didn’t need those words.
“The hotpot is starting to ripen now.”
“is it so. You’d better start eating now.”
So now, rather than saying a few words, it was better to eat hot pot while it was warm. Even without such a promise, Lee Siu was someone who would cherish Sakura more than his own life.

Even if you are a witch who has mastered all the knowledge in the world, there are things you don’t know unless you experience it yourself. For example, there are things like enjoying the warmth of a warm tropical region even in winter while sitting on a luxurious cruise that cuts through the sea, or seeing seabirds gathering to eat food thrown by travelers.
“Hmm…”
Shin Ha-yoon, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, looked at the horizon in the pouring sunlight. How would a normal woman react? Shall I say beautiful? The transparent sea reflected the light like a jewel.
It was a landscape that could indulge in such feelings.
“The wind is cool. Is this the scenery Lee Hyuk wanted to show you?”
Lee Hyuk, who stayed by Shin Ha-yoon’s question, was silent for a while. He just smiled lightly as if he was happy to be with Shin Ha-yoon.
Lee Hyuk ignored his answer for the first time, but instead of getting angry, Shin Ha-yoon smiled.
“…It’s really wide. That the world is.”
“Do you like it?”
“I just realized that there are so many things I haven’t seen or felt even though I’ve lived for such a long time…” When
Shin Ha-yoon moved the tip of his chin to say that he would go down from the fleet, Lee Hyuk accepted his body as if he had been waiting. Normally, this height would come down lightly through telekinesis, but for the time being, Shin Ha-yoon’s body, which had been sealed with mana, was only at the level of an ordinary person.
Let alone monsters or monsters, his body became so weak that he could not lift heavy objects properly alone.
“Hmm, what a wonderful experience. I’m not used to being taken care of.”
“So do i. Because you are the first to protect someone.”
Of course, Shin Ha-yoon and Lee Hyuk still do not understand each other, and the distance between them has not been completely narrowed.
“It’s such a bothersome thing to like someone. Being happy while helping a weak person…”
“It’s the process of becoming a fool. You start to get wet little by little in the drizzling rain and you end up losing all of yourself.”
He didn’t do anything for him, but why did Lee Hyuk come to like him? It was too difficult to understand human illogical emotions with the witch’s rational knowledge.
“Then the love you speak of is the process of becoming a fool? Become something other than yourself?”
“It’s similar except that the process is fun. I enjoy just talking with you like this.”
“…okay?”
It was not enough to say that Lee Hyuk’s love was unrequited love. It was a truly one-sided and truly heartbreaking love.
As for how big the difference is in their feelings, if Lee Hyuk felt love for Shin Ha-yoon, Shin Ha-yoon was curious. She just wanted to know what Lee Hyuk felt for her and why Laplace was able to disappear in joy.
“Come closer to me.”
Thanks to this, Shin Ha-yoon was able to deal with Lee Hyuk without any guilt. We were able to kiss each other romantically while standing at the end of the cruise ship in the beautiful tropical waters.
The moment Lee Hyuk feels the moment their lips touch each other, the emotion he feels right now is the dizzying love in front of his eyes, but Shin Ha-yoon’s was just curiosity and whim.
“You still don’t think I am? My heart didn’t race, and I didn’t become a fool like you. After all, isn’t that just the skin and mucous membranes in contact?”
It was a Shin Ha-yoon style to express a romantic kiss like this. However, Lee Hyuk could hardly disobey Shin Ha-yoon’s demonic nature.
“…Hayoon doesn’t want you to know me.”
Lee Hyuk was a one-sided loser.
The moment I saw Shin Ha-yoon’s long, straight hair and smile full of ridicule, all other thoughts disappeared in my head. The moment he saw Shin Ha-yoon in a white dress, Lee Hyuk’s heart raced like crazy.
Lee Hyuk’s feelings for Shin Ha-yoon were growing day by day.
“I see. You are such a fool to fall in love with a witch.”
Shin Ha-yoon laughed at Lee Hyuk and looked beyond the horizon. It was not the first time for Shin Ha-yoon to watch a human who loved a witch because he was such an idiot.
I just remembered that the end was not always good.
“No, you don’t know. Hayoon, you are changing too. Isn’t the proof that you obediently followed me on this trip?”
“I think it’s cool. I’m curious about Laplace’s words… but I just want to see the wider world. I don’t want to join you in your love games.”
Lee Hyuk smiled leisurely as if he were Shin Ha-yoon. The saying that if you stay together for a long time, you become more like each other, it seemed to be true.
“Then just think of it as a game. A game where the first person to fall in love loses.”
“okay? Then it’s your defeat. you said I have never felt and cannot feel anything like that.”
Shin Ha-yoon’s words were true. Now, Lee Hyuk’s one-sided courtship. Shin Ha-yoon’s emotions and Lee Hyuk’s emotions were as big as heaven and earth.
But even so, Lee Hyuk shook his head with a faint smile.
“That’s something you don’t know. Right now, Hayoon, you’re winning… but you don’t know what will happen later.”
Lee Hyuk, who always stayed by his side, knew. Although he was not aware of it himself, Shin Ha-yoon changed little by little after the Laplace and Shin Yoo-seong incident.
“okay. It should be fun. try it somewhere Of course you will lose.”
So, Lee Hyuk thought the current game was a match worth trying. I challenged this game not to become a winner, but just to give Shin Ha-yoon pleasure and joy.
The witch, who had struggled with loneliness all her life, now has the only supporter.
