Chapter 23: A Peaceful Day?

Chapter 23: A Peaceful Day?

I woke up in the morning having no idea how chaotic the internet has become. And went to take a shower after that I came I the living room and saw jin-ah using her phone with a frown on her face.

"What made your mood so bad this early in the morning?" I asked her.

She looked at me then looked away pouting.

'What happened to her now?' I shook my head and went towards the kitchen. Witness the debut of this chapter, unveiled through Ñôv€l--B1n.

"I guess you don't want breakfast then," I said while wearing an apron.

"Don't you dare?" she said as she kicked me and then held her own foot.

"AHHHHH. It hurts." While sitting on the floor. I just shook my head and pick her up in a princess carry.

She looked at me in a daze with a red face. I just chuckled at her reaction, she has a cheerful and active personality but she can be quite cute when she is embarrassed.

I put her down on the sofa and massaged her feet a little.

"Does it still hurt? Didn't I tell you before to stop kicking me or you might hurt yourself? Why don't you listen to me?" I said as a gentle smile formed on my lips.

"I-It d-doesn't hurt anymore, so stop." She said while looking away.

I stood up and asked.

"What do you want for breakfast?" while patting her head.

"Kimchi pancakes and 3 of them," Se answered.

"Ok then." Well, it's good that she eats a lot of food.

I went towards the kitchen to make our breakfast.

"Make some for me as well." Uncle who just walked in said.

"Ok" I answered as he sat down near Jin-ah. And started talking to her about random topics.

I made finished making us breakfast and put it down on the dinner table as both uncle and Jin-ah sat at the dinner table and started eating.

'She definitely takes after uncle in eating.' I thought while eating and after eating I took the dishes and went to wash them. After washing the dishes I went to the living room to see uncle has already left and only Jin-ah was sitting while using her phone.

I sat down beside her as I didn't have anything to do today I'll be lazing around the house today. I can see that she is looking at the phone intently.

"What are you looking at so seriously?" I asked curiously.

"No-Noth-Nothing," she said as she hid her phone.

"Hmm, suspicious," I said as I took her phone from her without her even reacting.

"He-hey give it back." She said as jumped on me I just stretched my hand to keep it away from her hand and held her waist to keep her from going anywhere.

"L-Le-Let me go." She struggled to get out while blushing but it didn't work. When I saw what was on the phone I didn't know what to say.

It was the photo that I saw yesterday. I turned and looked at her she just looked away.

'AHHH, my head hurts.' I removed my hands from her waist and...

Currently, in the meeting room, 11 hunters were discussing their upcoming assignment.

Which is....

"That is the plan for Jeju island's S-Rank gate. What do you think? " the person sitting on the seat at the head of the table, a handsome middle-aged man with black hair and a neatly trimmed black beard. the strongest hunter in japan Ryuuji Goto asked his guild members.

"No objection."

"No objection."

"No objection."

"No objection."

"No objection."

"No objection."

"No objection."

"No objection."

He nodded as no one have any objection. But then...

"I don't agree with this plan." A frown appeared on goto's calm face as he looked at the one who disagreed. And this moment the room's atmosphere became tense. They all looked towards the young woman with long black hair, blood-red eyes, purple lipstick, and black fingernails. Wearing a purple jacket and black pants.

"Why do you object Kanae-san," Goto said trying to sound calm and collected but anyone can tell from his tone that he is annoyed.

The person in question is one of the S-Ranks in the Draw Sword guild, Tawata Kanae.

"Are you seriously going to do that? Are you really going to leave those hunters to die?" she said gritting her teeth and clenching her fists.

"That is the plan. You are going to go on this raid, And going to follow it." Goto said while looking at he wanted to bring her along for this raid no matter how much she disagreed. Because she was a competent S-rank whose skill he acknowledges.

"I won't be following your orders." Kanae went out of the room leaving the tense atmosphere behind.

"It's understandable why she doesn't want to do it, considering her past." The vice guild master of the Draw Sword Guild Sugimoto Reiji. A handsome young man with light green eyes and brown hair reaching the sides of his neck. In his first appearance, he was dressed in common business attire, consisting of a gray jacket, a white collared shirt, and a black-tie.

"Understandable," Goto said as he moved on.

"What about you Akari-san?" Goto said calmly to the S-Rank Healer Shimizu Akari.

"I'm not getting paid enough for this." She said with a smile and nobody was surprised as they had expected this.

And like that the meeting ended and everyone went their own way.

Memorial monument, Tokyo.

At a place where people who died in dungeon breaks are buried. In one corner. You can see a young woman with a purple jacket, black pants, and a purple hat standing in front of two graves.

The names on the grave are, Tawata Ryuu and Tawata Kaori.

The woman looked at the grave while clenching her fists until blood began to drop from her fists.

"Kaa-san, Tou-san what should I do?" the woman muttered in a low voice with her head down.
