The Betrayed Red Becomes the Leader of Evil

31. Jung Eui-seok and Lee Lu-ah’s date

“Wow. It is a mess.”

Irua looked around and gave her impression.

Suwon Station.

It was the exact spot where Pegasus had fallen.

“The damage range is quite wide, so everything is blocked. Rather, it’s nice that there’s no one there, so it’s quiet.”

“huh. I like it too.”

Irua and Jung Eui-seok had secretly entered the place that was the battlefield. She also liked this place because it was uncomfortable in crowded places.

Traces of the battle remained, but on the contrary, the sky was absolutely clear. Even if the weather wasn’t so cold that you could breathe, it was so pleasant that you want to bask in the sunlight with your whole body.

“Still, if you look at the traces, the combatants and monsters seem to be of quite a level. It’s not something the Vengeance crew can handle easily. Selecting later… huh?”

Yiruah lightly punched Jung Eui-seok in the chest as he murmured.

“Isn’t today a play day?”

“yes.”

“I’ve never seen Zeo take a day off. What day is it?”

“hmm. Even though I took a break from the Dragon King Sentai from time to time, from that day on, I went out to subdue villains even on holidays… Since the latter half of the Dark Kingdom War, it must have been about five months.”

“Oh no, I’m not stupid. Don’t think about anything else today, just think about playing. Understand? Until you go back to sleep.”

“Mmm.”

“Promise.”

“okay.”

When Chung Eui-seok reluctantly nodded, Eru-ah smiled.

“Then can you guide me? I don’t know what they are doing even when I look at the signboard.”

“okay. First, let’s look around the shopping center together. I think you’ll like it at your age.”

Jeong Seok-seok is ahead. Irua followed him.

Arms swaying in sync with his stride. At the end of it, the fingers peeking through the sleeves look pitiful.

Unknowingly, I reach out my hand toward those clumsy fingers. I tried to open my hand a few times, but finally put it down again.

The two enter the department store. The electricity was cut off, but the inside was bright because it was a dome-shaped structure.

“how is it. Isn’t it pretty?”

All kinds of clothes, bags, perfumes, and accessories displayed in the showcase.

These are the things I saw briefly with Emma. Irua tilted her head and asked again.

“Are you pretty?”

“I don’t know either.”

“I don’t know, why did you bring it?”

“Usually women like it.”

“okay? I don’t know.”

“Mmm.”

“Still, it’s fun to take a walk with Jeo.”

The footsteps of the two of us echoed through the wide space. On the way, there was finally something that Irua approached with interest.

It was a claw machine.

“There are a lot of dolls. It must be heaven.”

When Jung Eui-seok explained the method, Yi-rua changed the coin with her eyes sparkling. However, when the tongs cut through the air on the first attempt, Eruah’s expression rotted.

After two, three, ten times, in the end, Irua broke the window of the machine with her fist and picked up a bunch of dolls.

“then no. It is a foul.”

“You just don’t get caught. The guy who made it cheated. Now I have won.”

Huhu, Eruah smiled.

“You have a fighting spirit more than you think. Then let’s go play a game.”

“good. Jeo, compete with me.”

The first place Chung Eui-seok took Leeru-a to was the billiard room.

“Ah, this is also in the hideout. I saw what my subordinates were doing.”

“It’s my first time, so I’ll give you a lot of handicap. I’ll give you 500.”

Jung Eui-seok picks up the cue stick.

right!

The white ball forms a beautiful trajectory and hits the red ball one after another.

As the game progressed, Yirua, who was on the defensive, rolled up her sleeves, but could not stop Jung Eui-seok from pursuing her.

right! Ugh- Tda-dak!

I moved the yellow ball with dark matter and hit them all.

“It is against the rules.”

“why?”

“You used your abilities.”

“Ability is also my skill. If your hand senses, body vision, and calculation skills are your strengths, then your ability should be included as well, right?”

“… It’s a foul, though.”

Eruah pouted her lips.

The two then went to the bowling alley.

Weiying – Chenggang!

“Is this a strike?”

“Dark matter. It is a foul.”

I also go to the stables.

“Only the role of the double role of Sanker.”

“Isn’t it just that the surface of the plate was completely scraped off with dark matter? It is a foul.”

The record ended with Eruah’s 7 foul wins and 0 losses.

After the game, the two went up to the rooftop and ate. It was the lunch box that Emma had packed for me. Irua stuffed the sandwich and fries into her mouth.

“it’s good.”

“Emma’s cooking is accurate, not even a second wrong. They must have calculated the time for us to eat.”

“What game do you play after eating?”

“Lua, you don’t even get tired.”

“It’s fun because you win.”

“hmm… I’m sorry to say it’s fun, but when you’re with your subordinates, follow the rules. If you bring out the Shooting Blazer Dragon without a sympathetic summon, a coup will happen no matter how much you are the opponent.”

“okay.”

Irua slurped the fish cake soup. heart warmed

“Here, Zeo.”

“hmm.”

“When is Jeo’s birthday?”

“I do not know. It seems to be around summer.”

“Why do not you know?”

“Because it doesn’t make much sense.”

“But then people around you won’t be able to give you presents.”

“I definitely got it last summer, but… .”

Jung Eui-seok is speechless.

Irua didn’t like it. I want to give another gift soon, but summer is too far away.

“Why do you ask that?”

“I want to give you a present.”

“also?”

“huh. Giving gifts was fun.”

It was a feeling of happiness that couldn’t be expressed in words rather than fun, but somehow she was shy, so she didn’t express it that way.

“I have no shame in receiving it. I’ll give it to you next time.”

“really? I have never received a present.”

“… Right.”

Irua’s heart was pounding. I now know the joy of giving gifts.

She also wanted to know the feeling of receiving it as soon as possible. It’s good that that opponent is Jung Eui-seok. No, it had to be Jeong Eui-seok.

“Lua, what’s your birthday?”

“doesn’t exist.”

“Then shall we decide?”

“Is that okay?”

“There is nothing that can’t be done.”

“Jeo’s way of talking is really like that?”

“… Yes.”

“Oh, I lied.”

“It might be the influence of targeting the chief of evil. Now this feels natural. It feels like I left a lot behind with my previous body in the wreckage of the Dark Kingdom.”

“What kind of person were you originally?”

“Originally, no one has anything like you. Everyone is themselves. Enduring, whining, enduring, giving up. It just depends on the time and place.”

“You mean that Zeo has times when he’s weak too?”

“yes.”

“Sometimes complaining.”

“okay.”

Surprisingly, seeing Jung Eui-seok accepting meekly, Yi-rua hesitated a little.

may i ask

For a long time, Emma said, a different form of trust was needed.

It was clear that that trust was still lacking, but she had anxiety.

Anxiety about not knowing when and where you will die.

Anxiety that this time may end in an instant.

It was an unavoidable way of thinking because it had been that way all my life.

And above all, anxiety from the secret she hid.

Eruah didn’t want to miss this moment.

“… Can’t you show me that look?”

Chung Eui-seok looked back at Leeru-ah, smiled and stroked her hair roughly.

“what.”

“You are still young. Other people’s worries are later. First, harden your legs.”

Yiruah didn’t like Jeongui-seok’s attitude.

“The person who showed it, I heard there is.”

“There was.”

“Did you love me?”

“okay.”

Jung Eui-seok, who readily admits it. It was a short answer, but Irua felt as if the blood vessels in her body were constricting.

“What kind of person were you?”

“Someone like me shouldn’t have met.”

Jung Eui-seok did not speak further. Irua didn’t even ask.

Silence lasted for a while.

After tidying up the lunchbox she had eaten, Irua opened her mouth.

“I’ll make it January 1st.”

“What?”

“my birthday.”

Jeongui-seok was puzzled.

“There are still six days left. Didn’t you want to receive a gift quickly? It doesn’t matter if it’s tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

“huh. You can be patient for a bit.”

“I get it.”

“I’ll look forward to it.”

Irua brushed her butt and stood up from her seat.

◈ ◈ ◈

“hey. I’m deaf, but please answer me straight again.”

Seeing Ji Se-hwa’s expression, the head of the association felt that the situation was really serious.

When angry, frowning and swearing comes out is geosehwa. It was impossible not to be scared as she was pressuring herself with a calm voice without expression.

Level 0 security conference room. It is a place completely cut off from the outside world. The only ones here are the four members of the Dragon King Sentai and himself.

There is no one to help.

The head of the association tried to cover the situation with the brightest possible tone.

“Everyone calm down. Jung Eui-seok’s survival was unexpected. I really didn’t know either. First of all, I scattered the data denying the doctor’s words. That’s an advantage because there’s no official position statement. Look at this. More than 80% of public opinion still believes in Dragon King Sentai. A handful, a handful.”

That was the real opinion. The truth is not favorable. Public opinion usually favors the side exposed by spending time and money.

It’s obvious, but it’s someone else’s business, so I’m not that interested.

“Conversely, it means that more than 10 percent support Red Dragon.”

Shin Yoo-gyeong pointed out sharply. It was a short broadcast, but the images of Red Dragon and Dr. Hyun had an impact.

“hey. Did I ask that now?”

Ji Se-hwa’s voice touched the nape of the president’s neck like a blade.

“That Jeong Eui-seok becomes an SSS-level villain. I asked if you were groping.”

The president of the association swallowed his saliva.

“Come on, calm down. You know the personality of Jung Eui-seok best, right? It’s true that there were risks, and even if I exaggerated a little… .”

Beep. Kang Ye-rin pressed the play button on the portable recorder.

『Jeongseok -seok was too much! The performance was so strong that the Washington Association tried to promote it to SS rank! From the SS level, even with my authority, I can’t control it! Then who will this association be? It’s obvious that it will fall into his hands!』

Wow Jangchang!

Ji Se-hwa immediately stood up from her seat, climbed onto the table, and rushed at the president of the association. Ji Se-Hwa kicks her face off with his feet.

“Ah! Aagh!”

Ji Se-hwa begins to beat the president of the association like crazy. She didn’t say a word.

“Do it in moderation. I am a common man die soon.”

Shin Yoo-gyeong caught Ji Se-hwa. The president of the association hissed as if his lungs had been punctured.

“Kang Ye-rin. Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Even if I told you, nothing would have changed. You’ve been cursing Eui-seok so much, but now you’re here.”

Ji Se-hwa did not refute.

“Nothing will change for us anyway. Jung Eui-seok won’t even meet us, and he won’t be able to help because he’s lost his strength. I think we need to speed up gear adjustments and switch development. Yerin, don’t you agree?”

Yukyung Shin’s opinion.

Kang Ye-rin was in agony.

“My sisters are having a hard time.”

Choi Min-seo stood up from her seat. All three eyes were on her.

“what?”

“I can meet you. Uiseok brother.”

Choi Min-seo laughed and said, “Whoops.” Ji Se-hwa approaches her.

“You wanna die? Aren’t you from the Dragon King Sentai?”

“Even if I train with my sisters for 100 days, I can’t beat even one of the executives. When we go out, I’ll go out with you. But usually here… It seems like a waste of time.”

Choi Min-seo smiled brightly.

“Then excuse me first? Eui-seok’s older brother… Only Uiseok oppa acknowledges me… .”

Choi Min-seo leaves the meeting room with her eyes out of focus.

The door closed and only silence remained.
