Chapter 204: The Black Dragon (3)
By the time I got so used to the sound of the waves to the point where my brain was tuning them out, the Black Witch stretched, looking a lot more refreshed.
“Ah. For some reason, I had a feeling you and I would end up like this.”
“You did?”
“Yeah, like, I can tell them as soon as I see a person’s face how close we would end up being. My intuition has never been wrong since I was twenty-five.”
“That’s interesting.”
“It’s all a product of experience,” the Black Witch said with a laugh. “If your trust is repeatedly failed, you end up with a rough idea of human persistence. Oh, yeah. I will continue to call you by your title in front of the other guys, not your real name. You don’t mind, do you?”
“I don’t, but why?”
“You want to know why? It’s embarrassing if you’re the only one who calls me by my real name in front of others,” she said, not looking embarrassed at all. “And please also refrain from calling me Senior as much as possible. I’ll get goosebumps. I really hate showing off how close I'm with someone to other people.”
“Well, you do have a point... but isn’t it more embarrassing to call you differently only when we’re together?”
“This is a difference in personal principles. Okay, it appears this is our first difference in opinions. That was fast.”
The Black Witch nodded and took out a small dotted cube using her Item Storage skill. Yes, it was a dice, a tool used in gambling halls around the world. She even brought out paper and a pen and looked at me with serious eyes. “Mr. Kim Gong-Ja.”
