[T/N: Apologies! The male who appeared before them at the end of the chapter is actually Song Dae-seok, not Song Man-seok.]

Children born of celebrity blood were divided into two types.

First, there was the type who reciprocated the expectations of those around them. This included Yeom Bang-yeol, the Red Lion Team Master, and his son Yeom Jun-yeol, a star player with a mother who was a descendant from the dragon tribe.

The second type was the one who couldn’t meet the expectations of those around him at all. Song Dae-seok belonged to this category. It was Min Green who treated him as a childhood friend who lived next door, not as the grandson of Iron Palm.

‘I’m going to a study meeting with my classmates today, but I also said that we would have dinner together.’

Min Green had then started going to school wearing the glasses that the vice president had given her.

At first, she had only attended morning classes and returned immediately. However, she soon started coming back from having lunch with her classmates, spending her time with them.

Sometimes, she left school in the afternoon in order to go to her friend’s house after school to play.

‘Green is changing.’

As Min Green began to make lots of friends, Song Dae-seok’s time alone increased.

Though he thought that this was alright, he still couldn’t stop himself from worrying.

‘It’s because of me that Green had become like that, so I should be happy for her now that she’s changing.’

Song Dae-seok was also the reason for the bullying that triggered Min Green’s trauma.

He was a tall appearance that seemed to be the epitome of the youth of Song Man-seok himself, the great hero of the cast Iron Palm.

Song Dae-seok was born with extraordinary abilities and came from a good family. However, there were some people who thought that it was not good for him to be too friendly with Min Green, and there were others who simply felt jealous.

‘I should be happy. Why can’t that be?’

Song Dae-seok later found out that Min Green had been bullied, and that he was one of the main reasons why.

At the same time, Song Dae-seok was crushed by the expectations of those around him, thus endangering his mental health. This led to him being quite the school hermit, much like Min Green.

‘It’s been an hour since we usually met. Did the study meeting get longer? It would be a hindrance if I called, so what should I do?’

In front of the house.

Song Dae-seok leaned against the wall and looked at the device’s clock.

‘Wait another ten minutes and call me. No, five more minutes.’

Within three minutes of thinking in this manner, Song Dae-seok ended up calling Min Green without even realizing it.

5 seconds… 12 seconds… 30 seconds.

No matter how long he waited, however, Green did not answer the call.

Once, twice… five times. As he heard the automatic machine asking him to leave a message, only terrifying thoughts entered his head.

‘Let’s get in touch with someone else!’

The first person that came to mind was their homeroom teacher, Ham Geun Hyeong.

However, there was still no answer.

‘The teacher won’t even answer the phone!’

The next thing that came to his mind was Green’s master, painter Hong Kyung-bok.

If he had stopped to think this through, he would realize that there was no way Min Green would be with Kyung-bok in the mountains of Gangwon-do at this point in time.

However, Song Dae-seok did not have time to think rationally.

“Painter! There’s a problem. Min Green did not return from school. I can’t even contact her. By any chance, did Green visit you?”

[…] …Dae-seok? What do you mean?! Where is Green ?]

“There have been some people who have been bothering Green by commenting strangely on Eungwang High! Now there are no malicious comments, but Green suddenly disappeared!”

Song Dae-seok continued the gibberish. Hong Kyung-bok, who had only been contacted once more after a few years, felt embarrassed, but calmly listened to his words, who were no different from his real grandchildren.

After he stuttered all his words out, Hong Kyung-bok opened his mouth.

[I don’t know either, but don’t worry too much and wait. Understand?]

“…Yes.”

[Have you contacted Green’s house?]

Min Green’s family.

After the incident, Song Dae-seok did not see them again, so after apologizing, he continued to avoid them.

“Not yet… I will contact you.”

[Yes. Take care and see you next time with Green.]

After talking to Hong Kyung-bok, Song Dae-seok finally called Min Green’s mother.

[Oh my God! who is this! Dae-seok, what’s going on? How are you?]

Min Green’s mother promptly welcomed him after a long time of no contact. However, Song Dae-seok was in a hurry and didn’t even say hello. Instead, he started talking about everything.

“Is Green at home?”

[I heard that Green is studying at a friend’s house today. Green even contacted me that she would be late today.]

“Did you talk to Green directly?”

[No. Green was sleeping, so I couldn’t talk to her.]

Min Green didn’t say it herself? Song Dae-seok’s eyes darkened.

Not knowing what was in his heart, Min Green’s mother grew excited and began talking about it.

[Green’s class manager contacted me directly. How can the class leader be so smart and nimble?! She really seems to have made a good friend.]

Before Min Green unlocked her powers, there had been a time when she was dragged away by the very people who bullied her, harming her in the end.

If she hadn’t been able to run away from the situation with her miraculously awakened superpowers…

…He didn’t even want to imagine it. Instead of trying to stop and think this rationally, he screamed in fear.

“How do you know if this friend can be trusted?! You didn’t even talk to Green directly. She could be in danger, for all we know!”

When he shouted in this manner, the voice over the device cut off. He later regretted making such a ruckus, but now there was no time for Song Dae-seok to apologize.

“Did you hear the address of that friend? If not, ask him and let him know. I’ll go check if she’s safe or not.”

After he had gotten the address, Dae-seok ran nonstop towards the address. He never went out, but at the suggestion of Min Green, he practiced indoors every day. Min Green’s worries were the reason why he didn’t tire of the practice.

‘Here!’

He soon came upon a picturesque house with a yard. Although he did not feel that it was a major threat, Song Dae-seok still had his nerves on his nerves.

‘The bastards who tormented Green were apparently fine. Don’t be vigilant!’

Song Dae-seok ran to the door one moment later and started ringing the doorbell repeatedly.

Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong.

However, the door did not open. There were signs of several people moving and talking inside, but there was no sign of Min Green.

Song Dae-seok rang the doorbell more quickly, rapidly growing anxious.

Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong.

Crap—!

Finally, the front door opened with a mechanical sound.

And on the sofa…

Min Green was there, sleeping with a very calm face.

* * *

Song Dae-seok looked inside him with bloodshot eyes, found Min Green, and fixed his gaze.

‘It seems that only Min Green can catch his eye.’

When Song Dae-seok spotted Min Green, he immediately started running towards her. As he entered with great momentum, he almost hit Hwang Jiho’s shoulder, who pressed the button to open the front door in front of him.

Sasak.

Hwang Jiho decided to be quite mean and went to avoid him.

“Green.”

Song Dae-seok knelt down on one of his knees and looked down at Min Green, who was sleeping. The girl in question woke up from the noise around her and half-opened her eyes.

“On Hwaseon…A paperweight made of wood, not rubber… Horsehair brush…”

Seeing Min Green talking in a half-asleep state, it looked like she was still halfway through a dream.

Song Dae-seok stroked her hair once, listing the crater names one after another.

“Yes, okay.”

“Dae-seok…?”

“Sleep some more.”

Then, having blinked once, she closed her eyes again and exhaled.

Song Dae-seok, who was looking down at her while she was sleeping, gently hugged her with her blanket.

“OMG.”

“Wow…”

Min Green was, by far, the shortest in Year 1 Class 0. Song Dae-seok was of the same height as Hwang Jiho, the tallest person in our class.

Perhaps it was because of the height difference, but it was a very stable position to be in in order to hold the princess.

No matter how much they looked at it, the children lowered their voices, seeing what could only be seen as a couple’s moment.

“The atmosphere is scary, but he seems pretty friendly.”

“It’s the first time I’ve seen a princess hold. What should we do?!” Kwon Lena blushed as she looked at Min Green in Song Dae-seok’s arms.

On the first day of admission, I had carried Kwon Lena and moved around, but it didn’t seem to count.

“Your complexion isn’t good, but your strength looks good.”

“You seem to have a knack for it.”

In the meantime, Ha-yi and Hwang Jiho were appreciating Song Dae-seok.

Besides Taeho, the two had a place where they could kill each other.

In this situation, the person who acted most reliably was Kim Yuri, a class leader who was also able to socialize at the maximum level.

“Isn’t he Green’s childhood friend Dae-seok?”

Upon hearing this, Song Dae-seok, who was about to go outside, stopped.

“Don’t go right away, sit down for a while. Are not you hungry? We still have pizza left!”

After hearing that, Song Dae-seok started looking around to see if anything caught his eye.

The living room was a cozy space that looked like a cafe, carefully decorated by Kim Yuri. Textbooks and school supplies were scattered everywhere. There was a Chicago deep dish pizza on the living room table.

In short, there was nothing that could harm Min Green.

‘Song Dae-seok would’ve noticed that.’

He must have felt something because he had seen Min Green sleeping peacefully with the kind children in her class.

“…”

Song Dae-seok, who stood silently for a long time, shook his head.

Kim Yuri replied, “I’m sorry… Then please, come to play next time!”

At this, Dae-seok hesitated. “…Can I borrow a blanket?”

“Of course! Tell Green that I’ll see her tomorrow.”

As Song Dae-seok was about to leave while holding Min Green in his arms, he suddenly stopped and displayed a hologram screen.

“If anything happens to Green in the future, please call me first.”

Floating on the hologram was Song Dae-seok’s device code.

“You know, are you two dating?”

“Yeah, I think so! what should we do?”

Kim Yuri and Kwon Lena blushed before shutting their mouths. Anyway, we had failed to catch Song Dae-seok today, but we had a way to contact him.

Thus, the first study meeting for the final exam of Year 1 Class 0 was over.

* * * *

The dormitory room after the study meeting.

Even today, unread messages were piled up on the device.

The most recent message was from Ok To-yeon.

[Ok To-yeon] Eushin-ah, Eushin-ah.

[Ok To-yeon] Eunin said that Seoho, Leeho, and Jaeho are close.

[Ok To-yeon] Now that the ban has been lifted from Eunfwang, I’m going to visit her descendants! What will my descendants like to buy?

[Ok To-yeon] Eushin-ah…

[Ok To-yeon] Hey.

[Ok To-yeon] Answer me quickly!

At this point, I started to sympathize with Hwang Jiho’s attitude, who was bothered by Ok To-yeon.

Although it was a gift that someone had already decided to give, he gave a gift that Eunho’s descendants would like the most.

[I] It’s Yuwon.

I had expected her to know it was a joke, but she seemed to take it seriously.

[Ok To-yeon] An amusement park? Are you talking about theme parks? Great. Let’s find out right now! Awww!

Hwang Jiho had already decided to buy one of the amusement parks that would be sold.

There was a way to build a new amusement park, but it would take several years to choose her site and create an attraction.

After a while, a message arrived from Ok To-yeon.

[Ok To-yeon] Eun-in. Please don’t tease To-yeon too much.

[Ok To-yeon] I understand Eushin’s feelings.

I had never thought she would suffer in the middle. After reflecting a little, she confirmed the following message.

[Hong Gyubin] Euishin, how are you?

[Hong Gyubin] I don’t have overtime these days, so I have a lot of time! ^^!

[Hong Gyubin] Is there any place you want to eat or visit? I’ll treat ^^!!

[Hong Gyubin] (Link)

When I clicked the link, a list of restaurants and department stores appeared.

Why was Hong Gyubin doing this all of a sudden? Before even checking the list to the end, he sent an additional message.

[Hong Gyubin] I want to go with the children of the newspaper club, can you call me? I have a lot to talk about ^^!!!!

I got a sense of it when I was talking about the newspaper department out of the blue.

‘You still haven’t given up on your regrets for the first edition of Zhuge Jagul magazine!’

Unfortunately, the members of the newspaper department probably had no intention of publishing the first edition. It was to the extent that the Year 2 Class 0 attacked me and responded that I couldn’t let it go.

Members of the other newspaper departments also checked the following message, leaving a message saying that they would not hand over the first edition of the first edition.

[Sung Siwan] Eushin, how is the investigation of ghost stories going?

It was a message from Siwan Sung, my partner for this ghost story investigation, Chairman of Jiik.

[Me] Yes. The class leader of Class 0 in Year 3 gave us a tour of Cheoniksan and told us about other ghost stories.

As an added bonus, I also attached a document that summarized the information obtained through Woo Ki-hwan.

[Sung Siwan] Ki-hwan takes good care of the Class 0 juniors.

Huh, it didn’t seem like Woo Ki-hwan gave information in order to take care of me.

[Sung Siwan] I’m going to check it out after hearing some plausible information too!

[I] Is this plausible information?

[Sung Siwan] There is a secret passage between the student center in the central area and the front office building.

That was the first information I had ever heard.[
