Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God

Chapter 397

It wasn’t a long time.

Although less than a month had passed, Volterra was slowly regaining its former form. What has changed from the past is that there is a huge graveyard in the village that is noticeable.

Adela placed flowers in front of the tombstones of the best hunters and best parents in the center of the cemetery.

“I’ll come back with you next time.”

Even in the cold weather, Adela wore a white dress and a thick coat over her shoulders, smiling pretty as she did when she was a child.

okay. Grief was not the only way to mourn. If you grew up, you would have grown.

“You waited long? velvet?”

“No, Velvet is going on a trip with her mom. It’s still fun.”

Adela smiled benignly at Velvet’s answer and looked back at Shin Yooseong.

“I just feel sorry for you. In the middle of being busy lately… I’m requesting to accompany you like this…”

“No, I wanted to come too. Is this where Adela lived?”

Yuseong Shin looked at the panoramic view of Volterra. I didn’t know it at the time of the raid, but Volterra had a completely different look from Metro City.

Of course, there was something else that was better than anything else. As we walked among the stone buildings that reminded us of the Middle Ages, Adela explained her past related to each one.

“Originally, there was a woman who made dolls by hand here…”

“doll?”

“yes. I didn’t have any friends because I didn’t talk much. Even if it was a doll, he must have wanted to make a friend.”

Yooseong Shin listened and Adela explained with a more excited look than usual. Adela used to find it boring to listen to other people’s stories or tell her own stories. It was the first time I knew that it could be so much fun.

“Is that the same as me? I didn’t have any friends either. I never left the Shin-O family until I was 5 years old.”

“If you had the chance… you would have been popular. Unlike me, he is a very warm person.”

“The same goes for Adela.”

Yooseong Shin suddenly met Adela’s eyes.

“Adela is also very warm. I know because I hugged her.”

“…you mean that? But I heard that your hands are cold.”

“Your body is warm.”

“I see…”

“Right. Velvet is just like Adela’s mother. Velvet’s friend is also an orca!”

If you think about it, it’s forced, but I still liked the two people who said that Adela resembled her.

“I love that you and Velvet are like me.”

If you listened to Adela’s answer, you could even tell the dull Shinyuseong. Adela was increasingly expressing her emotions. His expression became more colorful and his cold hands became warmer.

“I think I know why.”

The change is not just a mood. After passing by the doll shop, Shin Yoo-seong walked down the streets of Volterra and pondered the story from before.

“I wish I had met the Adela of my childhood. We would have become friends right away.”

“it’s okay. Because I met you when I was young. It was very… cute.”

“Kyahang~ Velvet is cute too.”

At Velvet’s aegyo, Adela unknowingly laughed. The cold ice-like appearance was no longer in Adela. On the contrary, it was good to see her smiling more and more frequently.

but.

Even though she had such a happy smile, Adela would ask Shin Yoo-seong in a small voice.

“…Can I be this happy?”

Shin Yoo-seong knew that psychology. I knew the psychology of people who are so happy that they are afraid that their happiness will run away.

It is a feeling that a person who is not happy cannot feel. People who think they are far from happiness are not afraid of being deprived of ‘now’.

That heart was like that of a child who is restless that the precious balloon in his hand will fly off into the sky if he loses even one eye.

Tup-

Shin Yuseong silently hugged Adela.

“Ah…”

Adela let out a breath involuntarily as her thick hands, forged through training, wrapped around her body.

“Adela, you deserve it.”

As Yuseong Shin comforted her with a calm voice and shared warm warmth, Adela, who was held in her arms, quietly closed her eyes.

“I used to be afraid to close my eyes.”

Adela, who closed her eyes, recalled young Shin Yoo-seong. I remembered Shin Yoo-seong’s sad face hiding behind a rock.

How could he share happiness with himself first despite having such a sad past? Could I have comforted you first?

Shin Yoo-seong was a great person to Adela. He was someone I could always respect, no matter what the situation.

“When I open my eyes, will I go back to the past or become a child and be left alone in that house? I was afraid.”

“Is it different now?”

Adela smiled slightly at Shin Yoo-seong’s question.

“yes. It’s different. I like that I can feel you more clearly when I close my eyes. Your warmth makes me feel that I am here.”

Adela recalled herself, who was especially talkative today. You were very happy today. Shin Yoo-seong made me feel that she, who was an insensitive woman, was excited.

Will I ever meet another person like this in my life?

Adela wanted to say categorically no. The ice that seemed to last forever melted and Volterra turned colorless, but at least this heart was forever.

To Adela, Shin Yuseong was an existence that could not be yielded to anyone.

“…you. Can you hug me a little tighter?”

With her eyes closed, Adela made an unusual request to Shin Yoo-seong. Thanks to that, Shin Yoo-seong, who had gently embraced her, now gave Adela strength enough to put pressure on Adela’s arms and chest.

Adela felt very good about it.

Just like a child holding on to a balloon so that it doesn’t fly away, I felt a strange sense of stability as it seemed like Shin Yoo-seong was holding on to him so that he wouldn’t leave.

“…Kyaa kyahang.”

Velvet glanced over. From Sumire’s mother just yesterday to Adela’s mother, could there be a father so full of love?

‘As expected, Dad is amazing.’

Of course, while Yoosung Shin and Adela were feeling and interacting with each other, Velvet met the eyes of a silver-haired grandfather sitting in a cafe across the street.

‘Hey, that person. Adela’s mother’s grandfather.’

Realizing who it was, Velvet tried to wave in greeting, but Arden put her index finger to her lips.

And now, as if to leave Yuseong Shin and Adela alone, he gave a warning with a hiss.

* * *

Yoosung Shin, sitting on the roof like this, looking down at Volterra, brought a smile to Aden’s lips.

“Thank you for saving Volterra. Volterra is a place I will never forget.”

Aden saw a new meteor.

What would he think if I told Shin Yoo-seong that he resembles Yoo Won-hak?

Of course, the outside doesn’t look alike at all, and Yoo Won-hak was a man who had been rumored to be an eccentric and an eccentric from before. However, his original mind and actions to save others were no different from those of his disciples.

“But that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a good place. My thoughts have always been tied to the past. son and daughter-in-law. And even Adela… she was still stuck in the past.”

So Aden had a wish.

I wanted to see Adela smiling, I wanted to see her genuinely happy. All of those wishes came true. Adela has truly overcome Louis. Volterra’s erroneous clock began to run again.

“But today. I felt the past starting to flow again. I can also dream of Adela’s future happiness.”

Yooseong Shin saw Volterra like Aden said. As I walked around Volterra today and recalled the stories Adela had told me, the view in front of me was quite different. So Shin Yoo-seong could see that the person sitting next to him was not a legendary hunter, but an old man who had solved his long-standing worries.

“How did Aden-nim and Master meet?”

“You may not believe it, but he was the one who reached out to me first. Both Aris and Yuchan believed in him and became a team. The center of our party has always been Amusement Park. And you resemble Yuwonhak.”

Shin Yoo-seong thought Yu Won-hak’s charisma was not humility, but a talent he lacked. His teacher has the power to make even strangers follow him.

But he did not have to follow the same path himself. Shin Yoo-seong doesn’t have the same charisma as Yoo Won-hak, but he has a kind heart that even he doesn’t know.

Today, Yooseong Shin was as if the value of his mind was recognized by his teacher’s colleague, Aden.

“…Yoo Seong-ah. What you have is not only strong power. you can change someone’s life You have the power of destiny.”

Of course, Aden also acknowledged Shin Yoo-sung’s qualities as a hunter.

“Your party is the only one who can reach the truth. Only the party you created can fulfill our long-cherished wish with Amusement Park.”

strength and tolerance.

Beyond that, ‘something’ will make Shin Yoo-seong and his party members reach the top as hunters. Aden wondered what kind of judgment Shin Yoo-seong would make at that moment.

I wondered what kind of future would come to our reality.

“You are saying that I should surpass Master.”

Aden nodded with a bitter face at Shin Yoo-seong’s calm answer.

“To be honest, there were times when I wanted to quit my dangerous hunter job and stay by Adela’s side. As long as Adela can be happy, humanity’s secret wish… is a trivial thing to me.”

Aden laughed. When he was young, he thought he would become a mysterious and secretive old man, but now he sees that he has become a very honest old man who only knows his granddaughter.

“But that’s something only you can do in this world.”

Shin Yoo-seong suppressed his emotions to calm down at Aden’s words. Being recognized by Aden was like being recognized by Master.

“Of course… Unlike me, Aris can be mean. It’s because Yu Won-hak has been burned a lot.”

When Aden, who had been serious until now, smiled like a gentleman, Hahaha, Shin Yooseong’s expression showed concern.

“You knew I was looking for Aris.”

“okay. It’s not difficult to meet Aris if I let you know. But I don’t know if Aris will listen to your request. Aris is fickle.”

No matter what Yoosung Shin’s request is, Aris will want a reasonable price for it. Aden knew very well that Aris was not a great person who would blindly accept his request.

“But there is an answer.”

However, as expected of a colleague, Aden knew the shortcut to this incident.

“That’s something only Yoosung can do.”

Only then did Shin Yooseong’s face brighten. It wasn’t impossible to revive Orca like Velvet’s wish, if Aris’ help was obtained through Aden’s information.

To put it bluntly, an orca is a kind of golem that has a soul in it. No one was more versed in this field than Aris, the so-called witch.

“Please let me know!”

Shin Yoo-seong was happy and his eyes lit up, and Aden smiled heartily, saying hahaha again.

“of course! let me know! If you don’t do the favor of the person who will become your son-in-law, who will you do?”

However, Aden said a little ahead of him and held Shin Yoo-seong’s hand tightly-very strongly.

“…Don’t you think so?”

Are you thinking of making Yooseong Shin your son-in-law, who is just a student? Arden’s ideas were too radical.

But Aden knew.

The only thing that can make Adela happy is Shin Yoo-seong. So I couldn’t let go of such an opponent even if I was greedy.

Even the gentlemanly Aden was prepared to do anything for Adela.
