Ch. 38 - Wook's Teahouse

‘What? What’s that? My protection is still working fine, right?’

W-What on earth is happening?

“Pardon? What administrator?”

However, unlike on the inside, Seora acted calmly as usual. Now it was almost like a reflex.

“Is there such a thing as a system or administrator?”

Seora purposely hardened her face because it would be weird if she were simply amazed as a civil servant.

However, Sung Jarim was a monster different from the innocent Do Junyoung.

“You are good at acting. I would have been fooled if I didn’t know anything.”

Jarim smiled and tapped her eye.

“I’m sorry, but I have the eyes to see other people’s information. Yes, that brilliant acting won’t work…”

That was all she could say. Seora, who had been pretending to be flustered, quickly jumped up when she heard that Jarim had ‘eyes’.

“I don’t like a quick-witted fellow like you.”

Suddenly, Seora had a gun in her hand. At the unusual momentum emanating from the gloomy, black Colt, Jarim raised both of her hands.

“W-Wait! Wait a moment! Calm down! Calm down! How many times I’ve said this today?!”

“If I drop a nuclear bomb and tell you to calm down, do you think you will calm down?”

Seora shook and touched her forehead as if she couldn’t help it.

“I didn’t want to do this either. But I can’t stay still because you’re threatening my safety and peace like that.”

Seora smiled sweetly and raised her gun.

“Well, then. What if I keep my mouth shut…?”

Jarim was afraid.

How can you threaten me with a smile like a cherry blossom on a spring day?! Are all civil servants like this these days?! Am I behind the times because I’m back after five years?!

“How dare that older sister put me in the care of such a dangerous person?! Is it okay for an official to do this?!”

“It’s okay because I am confident that I can handle it well without anyone knowing. Where are you going? There’s nowhere to run anyway!”

When Jarim jumped over the sofa and ran away in a hurry, Seora immediately followed after her.

Goosebumps appeared on Jarim’s neck. She’s slowly chasing after me, so why is she so scary?! The president said she was an F-class! Is she hiding her rating?

“I-I don’t have any grudge against you! I just asked out of curiosity. I wasn’t planning anything!”

“It doesn’t matter. The problem is that more and more people know my secret. I let Mage-ssi know my identity because I made a mistake, but you’re not. Someone with eyes like you is more dangerous.”

“Who is Mage-ssi?! Good for him; he survived! Uwaah! Calm down, calm down! It’s no use anyway! Don’t you know I’m a Healer?!”

Seora, who swung her gun like a blunt weapon and drove Jarim into a corner, stopped moving at the shout.

Yeah, come to think of it, that’s right. You’re a precious L-class Healer.

‘Ew, how annoying.’

Then it’s no big deal.

“Field development, zone setting.”

A red cube was formed around Sung Jarim at the corner of the wall. She shuddered with her arms wrapped around her head and gasped.

“Y-You even use your skills! You villain!”

“Now, how should I care for this puppy’s mouth?”

Seora approached one step at a time with a cold smile, like a demon. It was even scarier because of her glowing red left eye!

Is this something an F-class can do?

“I-I really have no intention of revealing your identity. If you’re hiding, I’ll shut up too! Really! Look! Even now, I waited quietly without a word until the two of us were left alone! Besides, I made the situation natural, so no one would think it was weird! I have no desire to lose to the real system administrator’s contractor! I am innocent!”

Terrified, Jarim muttered out.

Only then did Seora stop walking. The way Jarim shuddered in the cube with her tall height crumpled was so…

‘Insignificant.’

Of course, she didn’t intend to kill her in the first place, she was just going to threaten her, but she’d gotten petrified. Seora didn’t think it was necessary to threaten her further.

“So? Can you see clearly that I am the system administrator’s contractor?”

Seora, who had put the gun in the inventory with a hesitant face, asked.

“It’s difficult.”

Although the blessing of Silver Screen hid the S-class aura, it seemed that it was vulnerable to a skill that allowed one to peek into the opponent’s information.

‘Administrator, can’t you stop that?’

But the answer came from Jarim, not the administrator.

“It is not visible. I can’t see it.”

“Is it the same as not being able to check the information of the Awakened who has Mind Barrier skill?”

Jarim shook her head.

“If it was, a message would have popped up saying I was blocked by Mind Barrier, but you…”

[You cannot read the information of the Awakened.]

“My eyes are a little special, so I can see all the information about people. But I’ve only seen such a message once in my life.”

“… Contractors of system administrators?”

Jarim grinned. It was a face contrasting with her frightened look.

This person smiled brightly, but her mood often changed instantly, like turning a switch on and off. As if she was wearing a hood over her body.

“What are you?”

“Why do you ask? You have clearer eyes than me.”

As if waiting, the information of the person who had been deprived of her freedom by the cube filled Seora’s field of vision.

[The Awakened information]

Name: Sung Jarim (L-class)

Title: Returnee of Planet—Baskar (L-class), Battlefield Slayer (S-class), Mad Eyes (S-class)

Characteristic: Combat system—Healer

Entities in Contract: None

Special Note: A returnee who returned alive from another planet. Actual age 129.

“…”

The shock came as strong as when she had first seen the returnee Kang Sejun.

A planet other than a dungeon? Returnee? And what’s with that actual age…?

“I heard you’ve been in the dungeon for five years, so what on earth is this?”

“That’s what it is, so to speak. The gate connects with other planets, and the dungeon is the connected planet itself.”

“Planet…? Exoplanets? Something like that?”

“Yeah, something like that. As the gate closed, I was thrown onto the planet and lived there for 108 years. I didn’t know that it has only been 5 years on Earth.”

Ah. Only then did Seora understand why Jarim could change her mood, like turning the palm like that. And how she, who used to be an A-class Hunter, could climb to L-class without having a contract with an Entity.

It must have been that the flow of the long hundred years forced her to become stronger.

“Each planet has an administrator who manages the system. I saw someone with a contract with the planet’s administrator.”

Jarim smiled broadly as she looked at Seora, who was stiff.

“So don’t worry, you’re the Earth’s administrator’s contractor. I know it because I am an experienced person. Else, no one will know that there is someone else behind you.”

It was impossible to have a proper accident as the shocks were so great that they hit Seora one after another. The red cube that surrounded Sung Jarim had also disappeared.

Seora slumped down on her sofa, covering her eyes.

“… Administrator-nim, was this why you comforted me?”

She knew it all, so there was nothing to hide. In response to Seora’s murmur, the administrator’s reply came.

[Administrator: o(╥﹏╥)o]

“Aigoo.”

You should’ve let me know right away. Surprised by what had happened one after another, Seora pressed her hand against her pounding heart. I really won’t be left with my heart if this keeps going.

***

My heart was so startled that I needed to calm it down.

So, Seora first ate the chicken and beer delivered to her.

Kyaa, this is delicious. The returnee, who received chicken and beer for the first time in 100 years, was enjoying the taste of chicken soaked in tears.

[Administrator: Ψ｡ﾟ(*´□`)ﾟ｡Ψ]

Unlike the two people who chewed, ripped, tasted, and enjoyed, the administrator cried with a fork in both hands. Still, Seora resolutely turned away from it.

“Well, Elizabeth-ssi, go to the corner and raise your hands. It’s a punishment for not telling me anything.”

[Administrator: ٩(｡ﾟ´□`ﾟ｡)۶]

They’re really raising their hands… Seora bit her lip, thinking she might spit out beer.

“Cough, cough, cough!”

However, none other than Jarim spewed out the chicken she was eating. She wiped her mouth as Seora raised her eyes and held her chicken.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. That… You were talking to the administrator, weren’t you?”

“That’s right.”

“So, Elizabeth-ssi…?”

“Is the administrator’s nickname. It’ll be a disaster if I get caught calling them administrator outside. There’s also a sister product, Liza.”

[Administrator: ｡ﾟ(*´□`)ﾟ｡]

“Why are you crying again? Isn’t it time to get used to it? Oh, if you don’t like it, should I call you Eliza? It’s also pretty.”

Jarim’s face became strange when I shouted while eating chicken legs.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen an administrator treated like that. It’s usually uncomfortable.”

“You said you only saw one contractor anyway. There are people like that, and there are people like me. And.”

Seora frowned as she watched the administrator, who was crying insignificantly.

“If you look at that emoticon, your respect for it disappears.”

[Administrator: (._, )]

Look at that. Seeing that tear drop by drop. It’s so cute I feel like dying.

“Oh, is the administrator here talking with emoticons? The administrator of Baskar, where I was, was talking with stones.”

“… What stones?”

“That place is an ore field, so there are a lot of stones. If the stone they throw doesn’t break, it means yes. If the stone breaks into two, it means no. They communicate like that.”

“…”

[Administrator: ꒪⌓꒪ ]

Seora was at a loss for words. So was the administrator.

They communicate by throwing stones. It is not even a practice of divination.

‘Administrator, I won’t say anything about you using emoticons in the future. I’d rather have a cute…’

[Administrator: ꒪⌓꒪ ]

The administrator still couldn’t get over the shock. Even though they were both administrators, they didn’t seem to know each other well.
