“W, what did you say?”

However, that sentence sounded quite differently to the S-Class hunter herself. Surprised by the sudden remark, Esther asked what it meant. Then, Kim Kiryeo began to pour oil on the fire.

“I’m trying to look good personally to you (the cursed magician). Regardless of the guild’s gains and losses.”

He simply didn’t want to create unnecessary trouble, so he honestly admitted that it was a flatterer first. However, that one sentence soon had a significant ripple effect.

‘H, huh?’

As soon as Esther heard it, she couldn’t speak as if she had been beaten.

***

Clear day with flowing white clouds.

“…It’s ridiculous.”

A sharp voice echoes through the spacious office.

“Heh, really. Unbelievable.”

The woman with a sharp impression sitting on the leather sofa had been mumbling for a while as if she was dissatisfied with something. In response, the secretary of the Korean Magic Tower carefully asked.

“What’s wrong? Did something go wrong with the auction results yesterday?”

Then the woman on the sofa shook her head. She denies it with a subtle expression.

“No, that’s not it…”

Esther briefly recalled yesterday’s events.

-The only person I care about is Esther.

Who expected that cold man would say something like this? At the time, she was too flustered to give a proper response, but the more she thought about it, the more stunned she became.

‘I never thought you would be interested in me!’

So he’s been so brazenly playing hard to get on that topic?

Esther twitched the corner of her mouth. A hunter she wants to be on the same side with shows interest in her. How could it not be good news?

“Hohoho.”

“Why did you suddenly feel better this time?”

At this moment, Esther was convinced that the F-Class hunter had a romantic interest in her.

“Of course, it feels good. It makes me realize once again, ‘Am I really that pretty?'”

“Ah…”

“Phew, as expected, being a beauty is exhausting.”

“Well, you do look like a real celebrity when you don’t open your mouth…”

While the secretary made a brief remark, it wasn’t enough to ruin the other person’s mood. Esther pondered as she rolled her pen.

‘Anyway, it went well. If that person is interested in me, a little coaxing will be all I need.’

Soon her drooping eyes gently curved. In her head, she was already thinking about how to utilize the power of the awakener.

“Ah!”

However, lost in her thoughts, she suddenly felt the need to contact the person involved.

‘How about watching a movie together since our schedules are unusually light this week?’

Esther took out her phone and sent a text message to Hunter Kim Kiryeo. Up until this moment, her mood could be described as at its peak.
