Chapter 98: Kidnapping (2)
At the time when Yoo Jin and the children were worrying about Seong-hyeon after finishing the call with Little princess.
The underground where Seong-hyeon was kidnapped.
A secret room relying on a single small light.
Seong-hyeon was held captive in that dark place where one had to get close just to barely confirm a face.
Seong-hyeon, surrounded by bald guys who appeared to be Little princess's subordinates, shouted.
“So, Sister, when are you going to marry Teacher?”
That is, with a face as if only he didn't know he had been kidnapped.
The little princess, who had just sent the rendezvous point to Yoo jin, captured Seong-hyeon in her eyes and frowned.
What kind of kid makes such jokes even in this situation.
He was a strange child whom one would never think of as a prestigious high school student.
“I'm a non-marriageist. What I said in the classroom back then, about trying to contract with your teacher, the Returnee, yes, was just a fishing line.”
“Ah, really? Isn't it a loss if you don't marry when you're that pretty?”
“Loss?”
“Yes. Sister's children would likely be super pretty, resembling their mom.”
The little princess covered her mouth with a fan.
“Huhu, for someone kidnapped, there's nothing you can't say. Well, still, it's not unpleasant to hear so I'll let it slide.”
The little princess, who was hiding her laughter behind the fan, hardened her expression and lowered the fan.
“I have no ill feelings toward you, but I've staked my life on this matter. Since I kidnapped the disciple of that Returnee who is crazy about students, I must succeed in this contract.”
“But will our Teacher listen and write the contract? I think he'll just tear it up immediately.”
“Well, I'm expecting that much. So I've also prepared several moves. And the last move is you.”
The little princess walked slowly in front of Seong-hyeon, then turned her body to the side abruptly.
Then the lower part of the dress.
The skirt part fluttered slightly.
A peerless beauty.
Her face was one thing, but that white skin was also enough to make one's jaw drop.
“Wow.”
Seong-hyeon's eyes grew twice as big.
The corners of Little princess's mouth rose as she captured that appearance.
This guy, come to think of it, both in that classroom last time and now.
He seemed like a truly light and easy-to-handle child.
‘Men.’
The little princess, spitting out a slight sneer, changed her voice tone and made a slightly charming voice.
“Do you know what your teacher's weakness is? Something like a habit when fighting. Or if there's a limitation on his power. You can tell me anything you know. I don't intend to fight your teacher. I just want to use that power for the world. You know too, the power a Returnee possesses. He's a person too precious to be in a school, he should use it for the world, and we are the only ones who can fully manifest that power.”
Seong-hyeon, whose head was stiff but whose eyes alone were directed toward Little princess's legs, nodded.
“That's right, indeed. If it's our Teacher's power, it's more than enough to save several worlds.”
Little princess's lips curled up smirkily at Seong-hyeon's appearance, smiling blankly like a fool.
‘Good, he fell for it.’
Well, it's a natural result.
Beauty that brings down a country.
Because that is another weapon of the Little princess.
“Right, hurry up and tell me. What is your teacher's weakness? Anything doesn't matter, tell me what you know. You looked close.”
“Teacher's weakness…….”
“Yes, weakness…….”
“There isn't one.”
Silence came.
“There's no weakness?”
“Yes.”
“Not even one?”
“Yes.”
“Limitation on power either?”
“Because he always finishes everything in one shot.”
The little princess's expression hardened.
She had guessed to some extent.
A weakness for a Returnee?
There's no way there is one.
No, even if there is, he's not an opponent one can win against with just that.
Because a Returnee is an existence of a different level.
Well, this much is within the expected range.
If so.
Whish!
The little princess turning her body again.
This time she even extended her leg.
Seong-hyeon's eyes grew three times as big this time.
“Then, I have one favor other than that, can you do it for me?”
“F… Favor?”
“Yes, it's nothing much, but if you grant it, something good might happen.”
As soon as Little princess's voice finished, Seong-hyeon answered with his expression.
“I, If it's something good, I should grant it!”
Grin.
The little princess's eyes opened half-lidded.
When she gestured with her chin, one of her bald subordinates who was around Seong-hyeon extended his hand in front of Seong-hyeon.
And on top of that.
“If the contract fails or something, could you make your teacher drink that.”
“…….”
Seong-hyeon's expression, which had only been laughing silly, sank.
A small water bottle placed on the subordinate's hand.
Although he didn't know exactly what was inside, an ominous feeling was felt with his whole body.
“It's nothing much. It's certainly not something like poison. It's just a medicine to make one's personality a bit obedient. Should you think of it as just a medicine that helps have a comfortable conversation with your teacher?”
The little princess's face, which looked only beautiful to Seong-hyeon's gaze, was losing its light.
Little princess, thinking he was contemplating, leaned her body and brought her face close while looking at Seong-hyeon.
Her voice more explicitly charming.
“I'm asking you. If you do so, you might be able to be with me too. For… ever.”
“…….”
Seong-hyeon's pupils shook.
The little princess, capturing that appearance in her eyes, smiled a smile of victory.
“Actually, younger men are my type.”
The little princess pulling her head back again while throwing a wink.
Seong-hyeon's head dropped.
KO.
Right, she thought it was over.
Who could refuse this offer.
Not anyone else.
The world's number one Awakened beauty.
Little princess, who is called a peerless beauty.
However.
“I can't.”
“What?”
The little princess's expression crumbled.
“I can't do what you ordered. I don't know what that medicine is, but I can't feed that to Teacher. Because that is betraying Teacher. And because it is betraying my friends.”
“Do you even know what you just refused?”
“Didn't I refuse the request of the world's number one beauty?”
“So, just why. You were so enamored just a moment ago, why are you refusing at the very end? Did you not hear me?”
Of course, it's a lie, but.
“Younger men are my type…….”
“No. Even if Sister is pretty, I won't fall for it. In this life.”
“What is this brat saying?”
The little princess's pride was getting scratched.
“Because I decided on one woman I like in this life. And since that friend is in heaven, I absolutely won't fall for it.”
Grin.
Seong-hyeon laughed loudly looking at the Little princess.
“Because there is no room to like another woman, in this life.”
Silence came.
In that quiet and cold atmosphere.
Tremble―
Only the Little princess couldn't maintain her composure.
Venom filled her face.
“Really? Then…… well….”
The little princess's expression disappeared.
“You have to die.”
Light began to shine from the Little princess's hand.

“Then, I leave it to you.”
Yoo jin's voice rang the classroom.
“No, is it really okay to do this? What do we do if a teacher ditches class?”
Lee Si-wang was in the Year 2 Class A classroom.
“It's fine. You are the Assistant Homeroom Teacher.”
“That's the thing I shouldn't do the most. I'm a fake Assistant Homeroom Teacher!”
“Where is a fake, I ordered it. If the homeroom teacher designated you as the assistant homeroom teacher, you are the assistant homeroom teacher.”
Thud.
Lee Si-wang put his hand to his forehead.
“No, I told you I'm the guild's Vice Guild Master…… I'm super busy…….”
“What do you mean you're busy, rascal. And Seong-hyeon being kidnapped is partly your fault too. You should have taken care of them well back then. What do we do if you just leave when one person is missing.”
“No, back then I had no choice. Chan-yeong's condition was critical too. And I thought Seong-hyeon went back to Teacher.”
“Ah, I don't know. Anyway, just substitute for my class just for today.”
“Haa…….”
Well, as always.
To Lee Si-wang.
There was no right to refuse.
Lee Si-wang let out a deep exhale.
Although he complained, what could he do.
He says he's going to save a student.
“But what are you going to do. She's not an ordinary woman. She definitely must have dug a trap.”
“I know all that. Still, I have to go, what can I do. My disciple is there.”
“But it's strange. This could spread into a big problem nationally, to do such an action.”
“There must be a backing. Someone to bury this matter quietly.”
At Yoo jin's words, Lee Si-wang and Yoo jin's eyes met in mid-air.
Although they didn't exchange words, both guessed who the backing was.
“Anyway, please take good care of the kids.”
Like that, Yoo jin turned his body and headed to the door.
At that moment.
“Do you not need something like a support team separately?”
At Lee Si-wang's voice, Yoo jin's steps stopped for a moment.
His body turned around.
And then.
Chill!
Lee Si-wang's body began to react with a tingle.
He remembers.
This feeling.
This was when he first met Yoo jin.
And seen a few times…….
“It's a hindrance. And I don't want to kill unrelated people just because they were close for no reason.”
It was killing intent.
Like that, Yoo jin left the classroom.
***
3 hours later.
An abandoned factory located on the outskirts of Goyang City.
Footstep sounds were heard by the ears of Yoo jin, who was standing inside the half-collapsed building.
At that sound ringing the building, Yoo jin turned around.
Between the opened iron gates, a beautiful woman approached.
A red dress and a trademark red fan caught the eye.
“Oh my, keeping the time appointment well. As expected of a teacher.”
Beauty capable of toppling a nation.
The little princess smiled softly looking at Yoo jin.
Two bald guys were standing around her.
“To be an example to disciples, you have to keep the basics well.”
Yoo jin relaxed his heavy expression and retorted lightly.
“You are a true teacher. To the extent that the name Returnee is wasted.”
Little princess and Yoo jin's war of nerves continued.
“By the way, wasn't it three bald guys you were carrying around? Where did one go? Ah, is he holding Seong-hyeon?”
The little princess's eyes narrowed.
They had only met once, but it was amazing he knew the number of her subordinates, and it was also amazing he grasped that the remaining one was with his disciple.
“I didn't know you had so much interest in my subordinates. Now that I see it, I guess you rejected me because men were your type?”
“Asking such things is rude. What era is it these days. Well still…… although my type isn't liking men, perhaps an ugly bald mister might be better than you. Those people, at least, even if their feet smell…… aren't dirty on the inside.”
Crumple.
The little princess's face crumpled in an instant.
No matter how many times she looks, this human is not to her liking.
Everyone in the world bowed down to her.
With hearts in their eyes.
Obeying all her words.
This man.
Only this man…… was making her feel humiliated.
The little princess, who was making a goblin-like expression, quickly opened her fan and covered her face.
“Really, even with the situation coming to this point, you don't know your place. Did you forget what kind of place this seat is right now?”
“I know.”
Yoo jin shoved his hands into his pockets with a nonchalant expression.
“It's a negotiation table.”
“That's right. But one important word is missing. The hostage's neck. The one holding the hilt of the sword is me.”
A smirk rose on the Little princess's face.
***
Same time.
A place not far from the abandoned factory where Yoo Jin was.
A manhole cover lying all alone opened.
“Is this place certain?”
“Yes. Looking at the reception location, it was here.”
“I hate dirty places. Next to the Doghouse is a sewer…….”
Jin-ho, Ye-na, Kang Tae-wook.
Special team to save Seong-hyeon.
Ye-na reported to Lee Si-wang with her mobile phone.
“Then we are entering.”
― Be careful.
Well, since Kang Tae-wook is there, it should be fine.
When Lee Si-wang's voice disappeared, Jin-ho and the children jumped down into the sewer.
Like that.
Operation Save Jo Seong-hyeon began.
.
.
.
.
Splash!
“Ah, sh*t water…….”
Kang Tae-wook's voice echoed in the sewer.
