Jehyun ran their 341aa2ccbd fingers through their 3e2de7c94d hair in irritation 14cf00ee4e while glaring at 4b2c896efd the screen. After connecting 57be508342 their headset 48fcc03baf and joining 15588c9a11 voice chat, 3f75806e94 Habaek was e0aa539e0f already there. Seeing the slash 7ad7f14f45 mark, it seemed 7e586c6516 their mic was 3292d548fc still broken.6517e702a219c82a

While naturally following 526ff11f63 the leveling route a35db66d82 and starting main edc4a85eb2 quests, Jehyun asked df3ac7441e Habaek:486463c3bd6bcd74

“Who told you to add those numbers to my ID?”4e278bc6bafdc645

Habaek, who was following fe532ca877 JalapeñoKimchi doing main quests, f12fd172d4 made a crying emote. Jehyun sighed. It seemed like 64a0760d93 just a minute 944d96a844 ago they thought e14723019b about taming them, 8c9da6adb5 but already they 30ac02cd2f were about to e8df53d9e6 lose it. Frowning, Jehyun 817ae0c8ef clicked their 20c886fa75 tongue and 682a3b3e9a said:372d7c75a1fa7b70

“You really don’t listen at all. Don’t you get hit by your brother? If you were my sibling, you’d be dead.”89af869d62c7f678

Habaek made a laughing 15d35cb44b emote and used a 188cb6960b skill in the air. What does that c1ba5d3a72 mean? Blinking, Jehyun 3a5115fa65 said hesitantly:73bde07f420f2007

“Are you Sangjae’s younger brother? He’s older?”573bde22ef98901e

Habaek waved their e01c54e881 hand again. That meant yes.f23bdd1663c3f603

So that’s why they were so bratty and acted up with Sangjae. Jehyun let out a dry laugh, remembering Sangjae mentioning that Habaek was someone who worked out.59814e2849661a80

“You hit your brother who’s seven years older, so why didn’t you show up at the back gate? You ran away after seeing my face, right?”6806a711812e312d

At that question, 20d29ac420 Habaek finally spoke:c2fe26fa4f7f5a9e

[Party] Healer202: lol here we go again

[Party] Healer202: can’t communicate

[Party] Healer202: it’s tiresome so let’s just say I ran away after seeing your face, I’ll give you that

[Party] Healer202: I’ll acknowledge you as the Korea University back gate fighter

[Party] Healer202: I ran away because you were so handsome your face was glowing and it scared me

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: stop talking nonsense ffs

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: it’s not that much

[Party] Healer202: notice you’re not denying being handsome babe

[Party] Healer202: can I screenshot this and post it on Caven?

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: sure along with your selfie

[Party] Healer202: you’d be surprised if you saw my selfie;

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: np I’m surrounded by people like you

[Party] Healer202: ah~ which entertainment agency are you with?

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: you’re really talking nonsense lollollol

Jehyun burst out laughing at Habaek’s shamelessness and turned off their mic to laugh. Finding it truly ridiculous, they laughed for a while, then turned their character to pretend to hit Habaek’s alt before responding.061aae6fa732aaff

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: do you look like Sangjae?

[Party] Healer202: Why?

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: Your brother is handsome though

[Party] Healer202: Have you seen Sangjae?

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: Nah, heard it from your sister. She said he came to the PC cafe and was super handsome

[Party] Healer202: I’m better looking;

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: OK, I’ll ask Sangjae tomorrow to screenshot

[Party] Healer202: But it’s true…

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: Yeah, whatever

Having Habaek 5c3de56bea around was 27b0261f3a better than 255b797c5b leveling up 680aeecea0 an alt 6881bb4d28 character alone. Even if the conversations 88cd82faf3 were meaningless, at least ec5015be6b they were amusing in ee352a59bd their absurdity.cb092bb83b4497ac

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: I’d like that

[Party] Healer202: OK, got it

He really b8649ab6e9 had to fe14fd5756 have the 01f0428bef last word. Jehyun sighed as 899592c329 he ran to c7df2236b7 the quest NPC, 256b543dba leaving behind Habaek 1d0e2580ac who was standing 1a3c89b595 still with both 0d4cb36dea hands out in b1105ca358 a begging motion. Where did 34e79949b9 someone like 6bac693991 this come e0b1547b05 from? He shook his head bdf0aa5be2 and kept quiet.1a8893bb8587becd

But even though Habaek was annoying enough to make him want to hit him on the head, he wasn’t hateful.2462b84eb894ce69

Though they’d been growling at each other for 5 years, the two were, so to speak, running mates. Rivals enjoying a dying game while fueling each other’s competitive spirit. That’s why Jehyun could decide to merge the Guilds.4203af2efeffd367

Habaek knew where to draw the line. In their long time of fighting, the usual extreme swearing or personal attacks that often come up never occurred between them. Of course, words like “bastard,” “crazy,” “fuck,” “get lost” were exchanged… but among guys, that level was just playful banter.4de6f0e0fe16b62c

Besides, Habaek was only twenty. It was funny to get seriously angry at a kid whose ID card’s ink hadn’t even dried yet, who was too scared to show up for real-life fights. With the mindset of playing with a younger brother, Jehyun asked Habaek:068c7235d889d310

[Party] Healer202: Then let’s play until then. I have late classes tomorrow too

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: OK good, I can hear a freshman’s life being ruined

[Party] Healer202: I could take exams with my eyes closed and still do better than you

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: And that was a statement from Habaek, who’s on academic probation.

While bickering, the two f13922c2b2 followed the main quest 3d7680327b hard to level up. 10, 20, 30, leveling 2ea7d262cc up was faster with 14ae56130c the experience bonus from 50fdc0fa14 playing together, and by 018516dc53 around 3 AM, they 00fc3159f7 were able to enter 306dfb6aef the first dungeon available 54588b7700 at level 35.77fe6e4360aee0d0

As it was early b0488659c7 dawn, Jehyun naturally assumed d5fa93c094 there wouldn’t be anyone 0583ff0305 around, but thanks to c665bf7f5c the power of server 38f91c2dde integration, there were users 56e0086e37 going to the dungeon d41797c206 even at that hour. There was 968533d706 no tank, c705ac0c09 but low-level 3d466ece5a dungeons could 7916c6f677 be cleared e2fa61f06a recklessly anyway, e45fcf4939 so Jehyun a654292325 quickly abducted 1d2baf34b6 people looking f882a459c6 for a 7889d8e79a party.09e10ed78a7e921f

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: I’m the real healer.

[Party] JalapeñoKimchi: I invited Kanglim without knowing he was max level, and Raptors probably didn’t know it was a bus party either. It’s fine for me and 202, but,

Feeling mocked, Jehyun’s tongue rolled inside his mouth as he raised his eyebrows.

If that was the case, Shin Jehyun couldn’t back down either. It would be easier for both of them if one of them quit, but if Habaek was determined to go all the way, Jehyun was fully prepared to give him a hard time too. Smirking, Jehyun scoffed at Habaek’s quick reply. sss79ba354ae0cf75d9

Ever since he found out that 20-year-old Habaek lived near the back gate of Korea University, he had been curious. He hoped it wasn’t true, but considering the circumstances, it was almost certainly true. Habaek confirmed it.34615ee9ecc9f31d

[Party] Habaek: Yeah.

[Party] Healer: Korea University standards have really fallen;

[Party] Habaek: I regret coming here too.

[Party] Habaek: Considering you’re my Sunbae, it seems like a hopeless school.

[Party] Healer: lollollollollollolㅋ

It was an absurd but laughable statement. A ridiculous laugh escaped Jehyun’s lips as he licked them and stared at the monitor. Then, he casually probed into Habaek’s personal information.87f7354d5b38e2a6

[Party] Healer: What department are you in?

[Party] Habaek: I’ll tell you if the elder reveals theirs first.

[Party] Healer: lol

[Party] Healer: What department are you in, hyung?

[Party] Habaek: Our guild master… don’t you have any pride?

[Party] Habaek: You were so happy about getting on the hell bus earlier.

[Party] Habaek: Don’t go around bragging about it; it’s embarrassing.

Habaek muttered in disbelief 527b8ffb9f at Jehyun calling him 86a2236509 hyung. Even though the 1e71ed36a2 voice chat was 4b79c45645 off, Jehyun could 855963174b almost hear Habaek 12cc0f9b0e sighing through the 75480d71c7 headset, making him 1a8be5fcd3 burst into laughter.817b4cff81e50f1d

They were hurling insults at each other, but it didn’t feel unpleasant. It was strange and unfamiliar, like talking to Seo Eunjae, just funny.0814826b5cde3d4b

To think I’m having such a friendly conversation with Habaek. It’s creepy. Jehyun thought as he saw Habaek leave with a single “bye” and turned off his computer as well.f5e0650e2a28185e

Calling out that 8f56619511 love-hate name in 43f51459a4 his mind, Jehyun ed3e3cf65d scanned the lecture 93eab65a59 hall with sharp 2b4b64844d eyes.02b953bb768dedd9

As Jehyun observed his 95ca03b17f fellow students, his gaze 2336f2e9b0 eventually stopped on one 5d4915479c person. Among the fresh and 91b3b97075 lively freshmen, there was 9191e5cbeb one junior who stood 3cf28a1ba7 out as a central a349e7aefe figure—Ha Baekyung.cc94460817e833cb

Professor Kim Gonghak, in 869a2d942f charge of the mentorship 54c55fba2e program, began a lecture 76e4f017c8 on human relationships. Based on his philosophy 7fd5d6a650 that the most crucial 1da37e29bb aspect of political science 108da39623 and diplomacy is people, e1bb375cc3 the program paired freshmen a8e8562310 and upperclassmen to spend 2625dd8ccb a semester analyzing and c45e3ae215 understanding each other.71484b7955abdf0f

After that, during finals, c7e01f0172 instead of a traditional 07c3c6dbab exam, students had to ec2ad4d5ab submit a report to 1f4860526d the professor. The professor would 3c47f1ec14 then assess how 1ebe568410 well the students 902a58afa2 understood their assigned 5e597f5410 partners based on 296a6778da the submitted reports 0313371513 and follow-up discussions.3f96169ccb94d9d0

Incidentally, Jehyun had taken 2e7ec728de this class as a 1d9e044871 freshman, partnered with a 9c59f693a5 senior Sunbae in their 90881bc7e4 fourth year. He had summarized 065dbf7582 his Sunbae—who was b9a69063bb a self-righteous, sexist, bca4914b90 and all-around bigoted 72891e4168 jerk—as a “human-shaped dd6f4494dc moron and trash.” 0c1ff46b03 Unfortunately, that report 6dbf41cc43 had been leaked 26a8b823d3 by a teaching 02ffb17478 assistant, causing an 312d3138fd uproar. The incident became a 1d74f5ba33 hot topic within the c96f7f95f5 department when Jehyun received 3c7b0f5c51 an A+ for his 63deed76b6 brutally honest evaluation, with 97e8a27e94 the professor essentially agreeing 0394f3306a with his assessment of 9aad7af76a the Sunbae’s character.06240e7c070594e3

This course was 0370d6effd almost mandatory for d89822a29d freshmen, but the e559f84298 participation of upperclassmen—who 0376f35597 no longer needed e24355e33e the credits—was crucial.

Jehyun pursed his 68e9f9f3a6 lips in frustration b12018eb6c as he scrolled 59c56fbba5 through the schedule.

Sighing, Jehyun 33b5a79ad9 clicked on acf14d424a the 10 ea5e678976 p.m. screening for next Monday. Thankfully, there 1936c63060 were still 1f2076b308 seats available, 555d248edd likely because 0fc350e92e of the c58aa1c296 late hour.0c44d42dd65dcea3

Clearing Anak’s 2a564df2c7 Love School 0e5b5bd7f9 overload dungeon 9871b922bd usually took 8ff604fdcd about four 8e9e009034 hours. It wasn’t a new 03257ca472 dungeon but rather an eda39e2b2d upgraded version of an 04595da8a2 existing one, so it 51ecdf0ea0 was manageable.2149a57e3fc08123

So, wouldn’t daca2ff56a the Sanctuary 5d9bf8113d of Spirits c73c4b00fc take about 721caec29c the same 927378d4b6 amount of c872df610d time? Since those Cass bastards 5dc25a6b27 are bound to release 785f96726c pre-set patterns anyway, it 204605f8e6 shouldn’t be too difficult. Even accounting for some 0f64f5a6fe buffer time, Jehyun was 04e0dcd318 confident he’d finish well 6dfc82dabe before 10 p.m.2afe51fcb6f90811

After packing up 8d776ea0ea his bag, Jehyun 30fa8de84f patted Baekyung’s shoulder 01778c19e6 and was about 560ce72f7e to head home f7b591fbb7 when Baekyung suddenly 5a330196ff stood up and beea8083a8 called out, “Sunbae.” 1871e74aff Reaching out, he da1462a13b placed a firm b3acc4e03f hand on Jehyun’s 031d673b71 shoulder, halting him.
