Chapter 31 (Please Teach Me Tutor)
Episode 31: I don’t want to talk anymore to someone who doesn’t have the will to pass the test.
<Kim Si-woo’s POV>
Kwaang!
“Hey, hey, hey, are you crazy? How could you be so shameless?”
She shouted loudly, forgetting that this was a cafe.
“If you speak so loudly, everyone around you will hear.”
“Ah, ahem…….”
“Are you saying you can’t do it?”
“Of course! No matter what, I can’t do that to a stranger I’ve just met!”
“Understood. Then the negotiations have fallen through. Good luck.”
“Yes?”
Lee Hye-ri looked at me with a puzzled face.
“It’s my own way of teaching. It’s a kind of shame test. Unfortunately, Hye-ri failed the test.”
“…… Oh, no, why is that……”
“I have nothing more to say.”
“Okay, wait a minute.”
“That’s the end of the conversation. I enjoyed the coffee. Thank you for introducing me to a nice cafe.”
I stood up without hesitation. It was the beginning of work to take the initiative as a teacher. Among the two, the one who was lacking and regrettable was Lee Hye-ri.
It was necessary to clearly show who was A, and who was B.
The reason she went strong was simple. She was the younger sister of world-class hunter Lee Kang-san.
And she had supernova-level talent. The problem was that she didn’t want to use her supernova-level talent, but that didn’t matter.
Lee Hye-ri was basically born with a silver spoon in her mouth in the hunter world. Her brother who had risen to the top, and her own overwhelming talent.
On the other hand, I?
A half-hunter who lost his qualifications and was kicked out. I had to take the initiative to teach her properly. If I didn’t, I would just be dragged around. Being dragged around isn’t my style, and I have pride as a teacher. I had no intention of being dragged around by a student.
‘That won’t work.’
If Lee Hye-ri rejects my offer and gives up here, it’s unfortunate, but I’ll have to move on to the next target.
I had no regrets. But did Lee Hye-ri have the same?
No.
She had many regrets.
Supernova, a dealer who wanted to be a tanker. People around her told her that she wasn’t suited to be a tanker, but she insisted that she wanted to be a tanker like Lee Kang-san.
I couldn’t figure out why she wouldn’t use the talent she had.
But if I could figure out why?
It would be easy to make her quit tanking and become a dealer.
The reason Lee Hye-ri came to me was to become the best tanker. But I had no such intention.
Who would do something stupid like turning an S-class dealer into an A-class tank?
Each and every one of their powers is precious to me. I feel sorry for deceiving Lee Hye-ri, though.
‘I intend to raise you to be the best dealer.’
If she had known, she would have jumped up and left right away, but it seems like she doesn’t have the ability to read people’s minds.
“Excuse me, excuse me!”
Lee Hye-ri stopped me as I was about to leave.
“What?”
“Anything else is fine. So……”
“Sorry, there’s nothing else on the list.”
“Ha, but even so……”
Lee Hye-ri still didn’t let go of the sleeve she was holding.
“Do you still have something to say?”
“B-Being naked outside…”
“Who do you think is a pervert? Taking off your clothes outside. Do I look like the kind of guy who would make you do something like that?”
“B, but…”
“But what?”
Lee Hye-ri couldn’t continue speaking. Perhaps she wanted to talk about the massage I gave her after I took off all of her clothes. She was talking about the scene that night when she hid like a rat and secretly watched it.
“Oh, no.”
“Anyway, I don’t want to talk any more to someone who has no intention of passing the test.”
“…….”
I shook off Lee Hye-ri’s arm and left the cafe. She tried to move a few times, but she never stopped holding on to me.
‘The ending… doesn’t seem to be…’
I saw the regret that remained on Lee Hye-ri’s face. Maybe it was because of her pride, but she couldn’t hold me back, but I could still see her hands twitching.
I left without saying anything. I had to finish my routine today. I headed to the training center, and Lee Hye-ri didn’t chase me. At least not today.
***
It was the very next day that she came back to me.
Ding dong!
The doorbell rang just before 11 a.m.
I knew who it was without even asking. There was only one person who couldn’t stand to be hot and come to see me in the morning.
Lee Hye-ri.
She was wearing a light pink one-piece dress and was looking at the camera with determined eyes.
“What’s going on?”
– Is it still valid?
“Valid? What do you mean?”
– The test the teacher mentioned.
“That test ended yesterday. Isn’t that all in the past? I have nothing to say.”
– Ha, but try to think about it from the other side!
Lee Hye-ri shouted urgently on the other end of the phone.
“What do you mean?”
“So, honestly, before you make such a shameless request, shouldn’t you first show me that you are worth it?”
Hoo, you’re going to come out like this?
I’m trying to tell her that I’m not capable enough to suggest a test that’s almost like an order.
After all, she came all the way here to see my abilities.
It must be her pride that still remains.
I understand how she feels.
It must have been her first time receiving such a proposal.
“Do I really need to show you?”
– Yes?
“Don’t you already know? About my abilities? I thought you said yesterday that you came to me because you knew enough about my abilities, but you said something different?”
– T, that’s… … .
“Lee Kang-san’s younger sister wouldn’t have come to be taught by an incompetent tutor, right?”
– … … .
“The fact that Lee Hye-ri came to me first proves my abilities, doesn’t it?”
– … … .
Lee Hye-ri was silent.
I could see her biting her lips.
I didn’t respond.
Now was the time for her to choose.
She could either let go of her pride and learn from me, or she could keep her pride and learn on her own.
-That’s not wrong… … . Okay. Please open the door.
I opened the door at her determined voice. Lee Hye-ri, dressed in plain clothes, stood there, hesitant.
“What?”
“T-That’s my first time going to a guy’s house……”
“Are you dating me? Come on in.”
“B, but that……”
“What’s the big deal about taking off your clothes? If you don’t like it, then go. I don’t want my break time interrupted either.”
“Oh, okay. I’ll go in.”
Lee Hye-ri came inside, hesitant.
“Wow, it’s cleaner than I thought.”
“Did you think a man’s house was some kind of den?”
“No, that’s not it… There’s not a speck of dust.”
“Well… I quit my job so I don’t really have anything to do.”
It was quite spacious for a man to live in alone, but it wasn’t that spacious of a house.
A small 19-pyeong apartment with a large living room and kitchen in one room. Originally, I lived in a larger house, but after I liquidated my life as a hunter, I sold that house and moved into my current home.
I was living in a monthly rent because I spent most of my money on lawyer fees, but I was quite satisfied.
As soon as the door closed, silence followed.
Lee Hye-ri, who couldn’t bear to look me in the eye, shook her shoulders and gasped for breath.
Her breathing became increasingly ragged.
“Ha, I have one more question.”
“I’m starting to get tired, but this is the last one.”
“Yes. That…….”
Lee Hye-ri, who had been hesitating, continued speaking.
“You’re not trying to do anything lewd to me… are you? I, I don’t think you know, but my older brother is Lee Kang-san….”
“I know. She’s Lee Kang-san’s younger sister. I think I said that earlier? And I don’t intend to do anything lewd that Hye-ri thinks I’m going to do. The only things I do are things related to class.”
“… Are you sure you don’t have any ulterior motives?”
“Yes.”
“Oh, I understand. Then… I’ll, I’ll take it off.”
Lee Hye-ri took off her one-piece dress.
The sound of the fabric of the dress brushing against her skin tickled her ears.
Sararak.
A rather plain design of underwear was revealed. No, it was closer to a sports bra than underwear.
Although it was smaller than a baby’s size, the elastic breasts covered by the beige bra, similar to the color of her skin, caught my eye.
A B cup? If you hold it a little loosely, it would be a precarious C cup?
‘No, it might be bigger considering it’s a sports bra.’
But what caught my eye more than that was the 11 abs clearly engraved on her stomach. The muscles that were split near her belly button further emphasized her healthy beauty.
‘That’s hunter-like.’
It was truly a body fit for a hunter. But I didn’t like it. Why?
I was annoyed that she had deliberately worn a sports bra that was not very revealing in order to take off her clothes.
“This is difficult.”
“Huh? What do you mean? I overcame my embarrassment and took off all my clothes just as you said, but……”
“Take off your underwear too. I didn’t tell you to wear a sports bra.”
“Ha, but……”
You’re going to try to resist again. Here, I have to press hard. I have to make the hierarchical relationship clear.
“Take it off.”
“…….”
“Take it off. If you don’t like it, then stop.”
I spat it out in the most forceful tone possible. Lee Hye-ri’s eyes waver as she looks at me.
“You’ve come this far and you’re giving up? If you’re going to give up, then do it. I’ll just dress you up and send you away.”
“Did Ah-ra do something like that?”
“Did Ah-ra do it? Of course. She did worse. To avoid being expelled. You don’t seem to be ready for that.”
“I get it. But if you ever do anything else… … .”
“I won’t.”
“Okay.”
Lee Hye-ri turned around and took off her sports bra. When Lee Hye-ri turned around and took off her bra, her side breasts were slightly exposed, protruding beyond the back panel.
‘As expected, she was hiding it with a sports bra.’
Likewise, when she took off her sports panties, her elastic buttocks shook.
Lee Hye-ri, who covered her chest with her arm and her lower body with her other hand, turned around to face me.
I saw it.
She had a bra and thin panties hidden in her covered hands.
However, I didn’t bother to find fault with that.
The reason I told her to take off her underwear was because it was a pretext to make her listen to me.
“You look great. You’re like a hunter.”
“Is that okay? I took it off.”
“Good. You did well. Now lie down here.”
I pointed to the bed.
“B-You took it off. Isn’t it the end?”
“I never said it was the end?”
“But……”
“Lie down. I won’t do anything useless.”
“Why are you lying down?”
“To figure out your problem and the solution. If you find it hard to believe, you can stop whenever you want. ”
“……”
“Lie down on the bed.”
“Oh, I understand! I’ll lie down!”
Finally, Lee Hye-ri declared defeat and lay down on the bed. I stood next to Lee Hye-ri and stretched out my arms.
“We’re going to start a preliminary investigation to identify your issues and areas for improvement. It might hurt a little, so raise your hand if it hurts.”
“Yes.”
Lee Hye-ri answered with her face buried in the pillow in a hushed voice. Then I put my hand on her back.
“Hiyaah!!! What, what are you doing……”
“Quiet. I told you. I’m going to investigate.”
[Contact with target.]
[Activates Appraisal (SS).]
[Name: Lee Hye-ri]
[Ability: Mobile Strike (S)]
Wow, S-class skills from the start. As expected from someone born with a silver spoon in their mouth.
[Favorite combat style: Vanguard tank]
[Suitability: Very high]
[Usability: Very low]
[Can quickly draw enemies’ aggro and attention from the front. If used well, can handle both dealing and tanking.]
[The caster’s skill level is low. Since she has chosen the traditional tank fighting style, her potential is not fully realized.]
[Recommended combat style: Can be improved by utilizing combat that utilizes speed]
What is this?
Lee Hye-ri is highly suitable for tanking?
Why on earth?
“Huh!!”
Did it take strength?
I grabbed Lee Hye-ri’s butt too hard.
“Mister, Are sure you’re not doing anything……”
“Shut up. I’m concentrating right now.”
