3 Rounds by Myself
Chapter 17
17 – Relatives? I brought some cider
A few days later, Siwoon and her family drove to her grandmother’s house.
“It’s all here. Let’s get off, Shiun-ah.”
Siwoon’s father was full of strength.
There was a reason for that.
Siwoon also smiled and got out of the car.
I see a building in a cove.
‘My relatives who ignored me are waiting.’
What kind of expression do they make when they see you?
The news that Siwoon passed the Hunter Qualification Exam with a perfect score must have already spread to her relatives.
“Let’s go in.”
Siwoon’s father said.
I stepped on the stairs and headed for the third floor.
Then I stood in front of the front door and tried to knock, but the door opened before that.
Her grandmother, with long white hair, opened the door and welcomed them.
“Oops…. Has our luck come? Welcome to the West.”
“Hello. I should have called you normally….”
“No, Siun-ah. Come on in You have brothers and sisters.”
Siwoon bowed and entered the house.
His relative, Tae-seok, was sitting on the sofa and got up.
“Ah, Uncle Little is here.”
Tae-seok turned away from Si-woon and greeted Si-woon’s father first.
“Brother. How you doing?”
Siwoon asked with a grin.
“Did you have a good luck?”
Taesok’s pupils were fluctuating.
Tae-seok, who always despised Si-woon by asking when he was going to enter college, was different from before.
Shiwoon let out a smile, but first greeted his relatives and elders.
Especially, my eldest aunt was greeted by Siwoon with a slightly firm expression.
“I heard the news.”
Originally, my eldest aunt didn’t even greet me.
Today was different.
“Yes.”
“What happened…. I can’t believe it. You became a Hunter….”
“It wasn’t that difficult because I decided to do it.”
Seemingly displeased with the answer, Auntie frowned slightly.
“Sit down and talk to your brothers. I’ll bring you food….”
He sat across from his relatives.
Tae-seok, Tae-hun, Hye-won and Dae-hwan were sitting around him.
They didn’t really try to talk to Shiwoon.
A few months ago, Siwoon was treated so badly that he couldn’t go to college.
Dae-hwan, who is attending a prestigious university, seemed to be avoiding Si-woon’s attention.
Is it because he, a college student, has a lower level than Si-woon, who has become a hunter who is the object of jealousy and longing?
Dae-hwan suddenly turned on the TV with the remote control and changed the channels.
“It’s a holiday, so there’s not much to see,” He whined to himself.
After exchanging simple greetings with them, Siwoon raised his luck.
“It seems like everyone hasn’t said anything today?”
Taehun replied to Siwoon’s words.
“I heard about it from my little aunt. I can’t believe it, but she said she passed the Hunter Qualification Test.”
“Thank you. This is all thanks to my brothers.”
Siwoon’s words set everyone’s eyes, including Taehun, on Siwoon.
“Thanks to my older brothers and sister who gave me a lot of good words, I seem to have been more determined and studied.”
The faces of all the relatives hardened at Siwoon’s sarcastic tone.
My eldest aunt brought me rice cakes and sikhye.
Siwoon turned his head and looked at his father.
My father was bragging about his son to the adults with an angry look on his face.
My son became a hunter this time.
‘I’m saving my father’s spirit.’
I was proud.
On the other hand, Tae-seok was silently munching on a mountain of rice cakes.
Her grandmother sat in front of them.
“Why is everyone so quiet? Do you guys know that our Siwoon passed the Hunter exam or something?”
“I know.”
Taesok answered quietly.
“What is that? Did you pass that with a perfect score? How can our Siun be so great…. Tae-seok and Tae-hun. At least say that you had good luck.”
“I already said I had a hard time.”
“I don’t remember my older brother thanking me for having suffered.”
Tae-seok gave strength to his eyes and looked at Si-woon.
“Siun-ah. Would you like to go to your room and talk to me for a while?”
“I see.”
With nothing to do, Siwoon went into the room with Taeseok.
When Tae-seok and Shi-woon were left in the room, Tae-seok’s expression completely changed.
“Hey. What are you doing?”
“What do you mean?”
“Are you campaigning just because you passed the Hunter exam?”
“I have never had anything like that.”
Taesok kicked his hips and let out a dumbfounded sigh.
“You know I’m a lawyer now, right? No matter how much you become a hunter, you are still only a preliminary hunter, and your rank is lower than me. So don’t strain your shoulders.”
“Low? Is my brother looking at me, his younger brother, as a competitor?”
Now, life flowed from Tae-seok’s eyes.
“Now you treat me as a competitor? Seeing you say that you are lower than me.”
“Are you recovering now?”
“What will blood relatives compete with each other for, bro. Let’s not be petty. Still, they are blood relatives, so why fight each other?”
Tae-seok, who had never expected Si-woon to come out so boldly, was speechless and trembled.
“If you have nothing more to say, I will leave.”
“This bastard without buds….”
Tae-seok couldn’t stand it and ended up swearing at him. However, Shiwoon rather laughed.
In the kitchen, the relatives started busily preparing food.
Siwoon approached Daehwan, who was watching TV.
“Daehwan hyung.”
At Siwoon’s call, Daehwan said nothing and only glanced at Siwoon.
“Is the campus fun when you go to university? Don’t you know that hyung is also in college?”
“Why are you asking that all of a sudden?”
“Now that I am a hunter, I won’t be able to enjoy that enjoyable college campus life.”
Daehwan’s face is that he doesn’t want to mix things up with Siwoon.
“Please tell me.”
“You will find out when you visit. If you’re really curious, take the CSAT.”
“What would you do? I now have a job that is incomparable to that of a college student.”
“……….”
Because Daehwan’s body signals were mixed with anger and envy.
Siwoon’s eyes moved.
“Why is your sister so quiet today?”
Siwoon asked Hyewon.
“I never said anything before?”
“When I was wandering around without being able to enter university, he poured out words like he was looking at insects, so why are there no words now?”
“What, what?!”
Fireworks flew from Hyewon’s eyes.
However, Siwoon looked at those eyes funny.
“This, this! You… Didn’t you see anything right now that you were lucky enough to become a Hunter? Where are you talking about!”
“If you are my sister, are you lucky enough to get a perfect score on the Hunter Qualification Test? “
“……….”
Hyewon’s expression suddenly darkened.
However, she could not refute Shi-woon’s words.
Thump!
There was a loud sound of the door closing nervously.
Taesok, who was watching the scene, could not stand it and went into the room.
“……….”
“……….”
Excluding Siwoon, most of the relatives were silent with firm expressions on their faces.
He deserved it too.
How much they looked down on and ignored Siwoon.
Siwoon, who had been ignored and looked down on, passed the hunter qualification test and became a hunter, a job recognized by the world.
So you’re sitting in front of them right now?
They had nothing to say.
Siwoon directly observed their dark expressions.
This bastard’s relatives who always ignored him in this life, in the previous life, and in the past.
I was determined that it would go well and I would definitely give a shot.
‘How are you guys feeling? Those of you who know how to brag about others and ignore and disrespect them.’
A strange sight entered his eyes.
His own father and mother are talking excitedly.
With a very satisfied expression.
It seems that Siwoon, the son, is bragging about him.
Siwoon’s eldest aunt and other relatives sitting around him nodded their heads with stunned faces.
‘It’s the first time I’ve seen my father and mother, who were always down in front of their relatives because of me, look so confident in front of their relatives.’
A part of my heart was salty.
Through Siwoon’s eyes, he sees his father and mother for the first time.
On one side of my mind, this thought swelled.
For the sake of my father and mother, I said that I should fly even more.
It was night before I knew it.
After saying goodbye to his grandmother and relatives, he went outside and got into the car.
My brothers and sisters couldn’t even say hello to Siwoon.
The father’s expression in the driver’s seat was still bright.
“Shall we go home now?”
“Dad. Your face has been bright all day today.”
“Of course not. I brag about my son, but I couldn’t be happier.”
There was a lot of strength in Dad’s shoulders.
Siwoon’s mother stroked Siwoon’s hair.
“Your dad must be in a good mood now that Siwoon passed the hunter test. You know how blunt this person is by nature, right?”
“I know.”
“But since you’re doing well, do you know how much I talked about you all day long?”
“Honey. Stop, please.”
Siwoon’s father said with his face blushing.
“Stop it. You laughed really hard and showed your insides.”
Siwoon’s father drove the car without answering as if he was embarrassed.
Siwoon, who had been grinning, turned his head to the window and cupped his chin.
‘Mom, Dad. I’ll make you happier in the future. It’s just the beginning.’
***
In front of the gate to the other world located in Incheon.
Fully armed soldiers stand in strict checkpoint.
Since there is a gate to enter the other world, outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering.
Unless Hunter and other people who have been granted a pass for the gate to Yigye will never be able to pass through that checkpoint.
From noble mtl dot com
There was a case where a wanted criminal tried to hide in the other world for escape and was immediately killed after being discovered.
A monster from another world entered the present world through the gate and pursued it all the way to the center of downtown Incheon, taking advantage of a neglected gap, causing casualties and even being shot dead.
Since such incidents were common, a military unit armed with military weapons had no choice but to stand guard.
Many cars are lined up and trying to enter the checkpoint.
After that, a car skidded to a stop.
It was a Rolls-Royce, a luxury foreign car in England.
As the black Rolls-Royce comes to a stop, the soldiers who were holding firearms hurriedly walkie-talkies.
“The president of the association is here. Hurry up and open it!”
The barricade blocking the checkpoint opens and the soldiers salute the Rolls-Royce in moderation.
Bureung-.
Rolls-Royce enters through the open entrance.
In the back seat of a Rolls-Royce, an extraordinary figure rests his chin on his chin and looks out the window.
It was Kwak Dae-ik, president of the Hunter League.
He was the one who held so much power, wealth, and honor in his hands that even the president of the Republic of Korea couldn’t fathom him.
He put a thick cigar in his mouth and turned his gaze to the driver.
“What did you say his name was?”
“This is Lee Si-woon, president of the association.”
“Lee Si-woon.”
As I drove a little further to the gate, I saw cars parked with emergency lights on.
Then they start dragging the suitcase loaded with luggage out of the car.
These were the people who passed the Hunter Qualification Test this year.
They usually had a swollen heart on their faces.
It must be the moment when you realize that you have become a dream job hunter.
From young people in their 20s to middle-aged people in their 50s.
The age group was quite diverse.
The gate came into Daeik’s eyes before he knew it.
The gate, which is several tens of times taller than a person, radiates blue circular light around it.
And in front of it, soldiers stood guard and guided the hunters to enter the other world gate.
“President of the Association. Our bodyguards said they had the friend on standby.”
“Yes. Stop it and call that friend.”
“Okay, Mr. Association.”
Kikki-
Rolls-Royce stopped.
Military officers and men hurriedly run in front of the Rolls-Royce.
And greet Dae-ik Kwak, who was sitting in the back seat, at a 90-degree angle.
As soon as he handed it over, he opened the car door and escorted Daeik.
“Welcome, President of the association. You have worked hard to come this far.”
Daeg shakes his head once, gets out of the car, and looks around.
After a while,
Three men dressed in suits of big size hurriedly walked along with a man.
As soon as they saw Kwak Dae-ik, they handed him a folder greeting.
“Nice to meet you, President.”
After bowing, the men immediately straightened their postures by stretching their legs and clasping their hands behind their backs.
Daeik moved his gaze behind them.
I saw a man’s face.
A normal height with fair skin. A man with a youthful face bows his head.
“Hello.”
He greeted me in a tense voice.
“Are you a friend named Siwoon Lee?”
“… Yes. Nice to meet you, President.”
“I’ve heard a lot about you.”
Daeik looked up and down the poem with interest.
Daeik wanted to see Siwoon once.
A perfect scorer in all areas of the Hunter Qualification Test, which was said to be non-existent in Korea or anywhere else in the world.
More interesting was his abnormal DNA body measurements.
Muscle strength of the right shoulder significantly higher than other hunter students.
And the vision of the left eye and the right eye exceeded 10.
‘… Outwardly, he’s just an ordinary young man. No matter how much I think about it, I can’t believe it.’
The eyes of the people waiting in front of the gate were all focused on Siwoon.
Nordinary people looked at Siwoon, who was having a conversation with the president of the association, who said it was difficult to say a word, as if they were curious.
‘Is that young man the son of a conglomerate? Who the hell is having a one-on-one conversation with the president of the association like that?’
‘…… Ah! That’s him I passed the test with a perfect score.’
‘That person was on the news! A passer named Lee Si-woon?!”
‘I’m envious. Since we passed with a perfect score, the president of the association also has his eyes on us from the beginning. The road ahead will be bright~’
‘You look popular with the Gasinas. It’s pretty….’
This is what people thought.
The placenta of them were eyes full of envy.
***
Luxury terrace of a high-rise building overlooking the gate.
There, Daeik and Siwoon are having a conversation while drinking coffee.
Daeik put the burning cigar into the ashtray and brushed it off.
“Then, since when did you have such good eyesight?”
“…… Uhm, from this year.”
“From this year?”
Daeik asked back in surprise.
It was a fact that was hard to believe.
It was Siwoon’s visual acuity level.
The left eye is 13.0 And the right eye is 12.5.
It has been said that Mongolians who have grown their eyes by training their eyes to see far away since childhood have a visual acuity of 3.0.
They had such sight because they raised livestock, such as sheep, and had to defend their livestock from wild beasts.
Thanks to the amazing eyesight of the Mongols, they were able to ride horses through the grasslands and hunt.
Other kin could not treat them carelessly.
The eyesight of such a wonderful Mongolian is said to be 3.0.
By the way…
It was actually difficult to accept the fact that he had good eyesight four times that.
“Then it’s not that I haven’t had good eyesight since I was young, but my eyesight suddenly got so ridiculously good this year.”
“… Yes, it is.”
“Hmm.”
Daeik tilted his head.
Looking at Siwoon, who seems to be answering something in a roundabout way.
However, Dae-ik knew that Shi-woon’s words were not lies.
When Dae-ik had already reported this to the staff, he couldn’t believe it, so he checked Si-woon’s hospital diagnosis record and his detailed personal information through a dark route.
‘Hmm. Then.’
Daeik, who was lost in thought for a moment, told Siwoon.
“… Then, do you see the people standing in front of the gate over there?”
Daeik gestured in the direction of the gate.
The place he pointed to was a distance well over 3km from here.
In the eyes of Daeik, who had normal vision, even the shape of a person standing there was faintly visible.
Siwoon slightly turned his head in that direction and answered happily.
“I can see it.”
“Then can I test it right here?”
