Academy Life of a Career Hypnotist

Episode 38. Con Sentimento (3)

“Hold your feelings… … .”

Seol Chae-hwa muttered quietly. The servant also seemed to be immersed in agony with his eyes down.

“Unfortunately, I don’t know how to put emotion into a performance. So, I would like to ask for advice from the two people gathered here, Seol Chae-hwa and the employee.”

“Then may I ask the other way around?”

I nodded my head at the servant’s question.

“Please feel free to ask.”

“You listened to the song earlier as an example. The way to put emotions in a song is, of course, the singing method, right? In this melody section, it is like singing “My throat explodes,” or in a certain section, it is called calmly.”

“Yes.”

“You don’t have to think hard. Playing an instrument is no different. If you think about it with the same substitution, the answer might come out.”

“indeed… … .”

I roughly understood the principle.

but.

‘It’s hard to get a sense of it with just this.’

Looking at the bow in my hand, I was lost in thought for a while.

“Are you having a hard time?”

The servant asked implicitly.

“yes. I’m trying to understand, but it’s not easy.”

“Then what about this? When I play, I pay close attention to the reaction of the listeners.”

“You see the reaction?”

“yes. It’s to see the listener’s reaction when you play a certain section. Listeners have different reactions depending on their personality.”

“I guess so.”

“It’s like whether to make a clear high note in the section where you need to sing high notes or to add vibration by scratching your neck. Each person will have a different reaction when they hear that, and the teacher feels which reaction touches his heart more.”

Is that the trick to putting emotions in?

I shook my head as if I understood.

***

“I thought it would work for some reason today, but it’s a pity.”

In the end, I couldn’t even meet Na Seol-ah today and had to turn around.

In case you didn’t know, I tried to have a normal conversation again, but Na Seol-ah refused to meet me.

“are you okay. Next time we visit, we will be able to talk unconditionally.”

“I wish I could.”

I returned to Signal with Seol Chae-hwa and it was the next day.

‘To get a reaction from the listeners, I’ll have to invite people to play.’

After all, the more data, the better. I don’t even know what kind of playing style I like. It was necessary to meet various people and check their reactions.

First listener first.

Pyo Yoo-rim, who recently returned as a signal, was called to the Cheonseong training ground. It came back sooner than expected, so I asked if everything was resolved, and it seemed like it wasn’t yet.

“I stopped by to get energy recharged by Mr. Kim Do-yoon.”

“I am the battery charger… ?”

“Can I carry it with me?”

“Yeah, that’s a bit.”

That appearance, which was passive at first, seemed to be changing like a fox as the days went by.

Could it be because the memories of the past started to be maintained instead of being blown away? Even though it was limited to memories related to me, I could clearly see the person changing.

I am very happy with the positive change. It would be better if the area of memory was expanded than now. Then your dependence on me will also fall.

“So what can I do?”

“All you have to do is give an honest reaction while listening to my performance. Don’t overdo it, just do it naturally.”

“all right.”

And the play started.

―――――――――――――.

I decided to listen to the reaction.

“So good.”

“Then how about this?”

Other performances were also presented.

“It’s beautiful.”

“This one?”

“cool.”

“… What about this song?”

“I love you.”

Pyo Yu-rim showed the same reaction all the time. All were positive.

I deliberately played strangely this time to see other reactions as a test. It was my intention to deliberately make mistakes and watch the reaction.

“It was so good.”

“Isn’t that strange?”

“no. It’s not weird at all.”

“really?”

“Really.”

“Doesn’t that sound strange?”

“Did anyone else say it was weird? If so, please tell me your name.”

what. why so scary

Why are your eyes open like that? Find out who you are and what are you going to do?

‘Let’s stop looking at Yurim Pyo’s reaction… .’

I even made a sound I didn’t want to hear on purpose, but this kind of reaction. It didn’t help much because it was so arrogant.

“What? Uncle, can you play the violin too?”

The second hitter was Eom Na-yeon.

“There is something I want to find out. You just have to listen and give an honest reaction. Don’t make a fuss and be straightforward. You know what I mean?”

“Okidoki~ Trust me.”

―――――――――――――.

What was the reaction like?

“and! amazing!”

“This performance?”

“and! violin!”

“… How about this song?”

“This song is so, so, so scary, so good!”

I put down my bow for a moment and asked.

“You’re not kidding, are you?”

“Eh? You want me to respond honestly?”

“There is no need to over-action.”

“No no! I really put up with this and reacted plainly. Or should I show you my usual tension?”

Eom Na-yeon decided to find out only this far.

Next was Min Seo-eun.

―――――――――――――.

“how is it?”

“I didn’t know the violin was such an attractive instrument. It’s very nice.”

Her reaction was mostly boring. It wasn’t that there was anything wrong with that, but this time, something more.

“I feel like I feel like a different person every time I meet Doyoon Kim.”

“compliment… easy?”

“It was to the point where I wondered if it was the unscrupulous person who tried to grope my body when we first met. I had the feeling that I saw a person again last time, but this time, he appears again.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

Apart from the reaction, the atmosphere Min Seo-eun treated me was too burdensome.

“Aren’t you hypnotizing me right now?”

“don’t worry. Don’t make the same mistake twice.”

“Whoops. I apologize if I sounded offended. It meant that the performance was as beautiful as being hypnotized.”

Sometimes, when you talk, there are such people. People who seem to be in a normal atmosphere at first glance, but somehow give the impression that the other person wants to dig into me. Min Seo-eun did just that.

Maybe it’s because I’m the kind of person who does that kind of work. On the contrary, I don’t know if I feel uncomfortable because I’m in such a situation.

“huh? Want to hear me play the violin?”

“okay.”

The next hitter was Aram Kang.

“I don’t know what to do, so I won’t be of much help.”

“are you okay. Don’t feel pressured, just naturally listen to my performance and show your reaction. You don’t have to be conscious of having to react too much.”

“hmm. In a word, do you want to be comfortable?”

―――――――――――――.

And the play started.

“hey.”

“… … .”

“Yumma.”

“… Cheeup. what. Are you done already?”

I said stay comfortable, who said sleep?

“So what are your impressions?”

“Yeah. I sleep very well. It’s perfect to listen to when you’re tired but can’t sleep.”

“… … .”

“Couldn’t you listen to me when I sleep in the poor room? I think I’ll be able to get a real good night’s sleep.”

It’s not a good night’s sleep, it’s a good night’s sleep, really.

I decided to give him one song and finish it. If I played the second song, I felt like I would stretch out and fall asleep at the Cheonseong training ground.

“how is it. Did you realize anything?”

in the midst of that

In no time at all, regular classes were over.

Just as I was about to pack my bag and leave the classroom, I ran into Seol Chae-hwa. It must have been waiting for me to come out at the door.

“well. First of all, I asked people around me to play it, right? I don’t know yet.”

“If there is anything I can help with, please feel free to contact me.”

I was thinking of giving Seol Chae-hwa a performance separately, but in the end I gave up. She had been watching me from the time I practiced repetitively to finish the race.

“Thank you. Did you come to my class to tell me that?”

“Actually, I was thinking of talking about other topics as well… … .”

Seol Chae-hwa stopped talking midway and looked into the classroom where I was standing with my back to her. And then, out of nowhere, isn’t it a coquettish laugh?

“what. Why are you laughing all of a sudden?”

“no. I will be praying for good results in the future. But don’t overdo it without taking care of yourself.”

“What is it? You take care of all those trivial worries… … ?”

Seol Chae-hwa grabs my hand with both hands and pulls it up. I wondered what I was doing out of the blue, but she looked at my fingers and gave me a worried look.

“Even though I treat it with drones every time, there are still wounds.”

“I can’t help it because I keep playing. In a world where treatment technology is so good, it doesn’t even give you time to develop calluses.”

Her eyes, which had been looking at her fingers, glanced at me.

“You said what was it? Do I look so awkward when I’m worried?”

“Yeah, it’s because I can see that you usually draw a certain line and act. Because it is an occupational disease. I apologize if I sounded offended.”

“I can’t feel bad. Even though he said he didn’t have enough time, he overreactedly took my request and worked hard.”

She seemed to smile softly, but quickly turned away.

“I’ll just tell you what I was originally going to say later. I don’t think it’ll be too late to do it after this job is over.”

“It’s bland.”

As I watched her go away, I felt someone nearby and turned my head.

“… … .”

There was a pyoyurim standing behind me with a grim face.

“what’s the matter? Do you have something to say?”

“You two seem to be very close… ?”

“Because we often meet in business relationships.”

“It’s a business relationship, but why are you holding the hand of an outsider like that?”

“Because it varies from person to person.”

“Do-yoon Kim, don’t you feel bad when a girl you’re not very close with suddenly holds hands?”

I can’t feel bad.

Even if you’re not very close with a girl, if the other person is a beauty like Seol Chae-hwa, everything is forgiven. Coincidentally, that was the male race. I wasn’t the type to stray too far from the family of that man.

“I don’t really care about that.”

It just didn’t show.

however.

“and. What are these wounds?”

As soon as I answered, Pyoyu-rim grabbed my hand and raised it. It was so natural that I had nothing to say. Could it be that the question I asked earlier was a build-up for this action?

‘A kid who was so clumsy at expressing emotions became this advanced? I thought it had changed, but it really changed beyond recognition, didn’t it?’

If only Seolchaehwa had the feeling of touching it lightly by applying force only to the tips of the fingers. Pyo Yu-rim even used his palms to grab my arm and grab it. As if it wouldn’t be taken away.

What on earth made her change like this?

‘I don’t even know why… … It’s a problem because I’m too experienced to just skip over it.’

Even if you don’t want to know, you are forced to notice because of the nature of your job.

“Do-yoon Kim? What are these wounds? Why are you silent?”

When I was still, Pyo Yu-rim’s eyes trembled with worry.

“It came about while playing the violin.”

“You’re playing an instrument, so you’re hurting like this?”

“It was so much fun that I didn’t even know I was getting hurt, so I was overly immersed in playing.”

“Ugh.”

All of a sudden, a weak light drifts from the hand of the stray forest. It was a harbinger that occurred before using her natural magician.

“what are you doing?”

“ah.”

I hurriedly removed the pyoyurim’s hand and said.

“You can’t overdo it yet. Besides, you and I have a compatible relationship, so we don’t communicate well with each other, so there’s no need to struggle.”

“still… … .”

“A wound like this can be treated right away if you go to the health room.”

“I wanted to help Mr. Kim Do-yoon… … .”

Pyo Yu-rim lowers his gaze and makes a sad expression. Seeing that, I felt guilty as if I had committed a high treason, even though I hadn’t done anything wrong.

‘Has the woman’s immune system weakened after spending time with the beggar Aram Kang?’

If you keep exuding such a girlish aura, it’s hard to pretend you don’t know, even in a country like this.

“You are helpful enough.”

“Me?”

“okay.”

“What are you doing?”

Although, in this second episode, I vowed not to borrow power for the wild forest.

‘There will come a time when I will definitely need his help.’

Since I cannot become a meteor, I must inevitably seek help from others to fill the vacancy of the main character.

In that sense, Pyo Yu-rim, who has tremendous power, is undoubtedly a reliable ally by itself. He was a person who gave me peace of mind just by being by my side.

‘But I can’t tell that to myself.’

I had no choice but to answer like this.

“You can have a friendly conversation with a pretty girl like you. Men are very happy with this alone.”

“Oh… !”

know. damn, i know

I know it’s a comment that makes your tongue feel like it’s going to get twisted right away. I knew it, but I had to say it.

“Mo, I don’t know. I want to go.”

If I didn’t do this, it would be difficult to shake off the wild forest naturally.

With a flushed face, the stray forest turns around and disappears in a flash.

It wasn’t until I saw that she trotted away and ended up going around the corner of the hallway.

“phew… .”

I was able to let out the sigh I had been holding back.

Of course, I couldn’t remain relieved here.

“and… . Did you just see it?”

“I saw it. I see that the rumors are true.”

The place where I am standing right now is the entrance to Class 3. It meant that students who had not yet been dismissed and remained in the classroom were watching.

“It was true that Kim Do-yoon was good at flirting with women even without natural strength. I heard that they created a circle called the Trouble Counseling Department and provide dating counseling, but it is very useful.”

“Honestly, I didn’t go because I was a bit reluctant… … . Seeing Pyo Yu-rim, who is not friendly with anyone, being lifted up and down like that, trust is lost. Shall I sneak in and ask for advice?”

Seeing the male students whispering in a corner of the classroom, I felt mixed in many ways.

‘If you come to the trouble counseling department, I’ll be grateful, so let’s just accept it.’

After leaving the class 3 classroom, unlike usual, I did not go straight to the trouble counseling department. There was someone I needed to meet in the 1st grade office.

“hmm. I am a student of Doyoon Kim. What’s your business?”

Tak Kwang-joon is the homeroom teacher of Class 3 of the 1st grade.

I went up to him and said.

“Teacher. Signal benefits that you said you would take care of my convenience. Is it still valid?”

“hmm.”

Tak Gwang-jun did not answer right away and crossed his arms. He leans slowly against the back of the chair, which is not suitable for his size, and looks up at me.

“Kim Do-yoon.”

“yes.”

“Clearly, Signal was able to overcome a major crisis thanks to you. Even though they provided convenience for the establishment of the circle, I thought that it was not enough.”

“Is that so.”

He held out two fingers at me and said.

“So, just two more. I will grant you any wish within the scope of what Signal can do.”

I see what you mean. In order to prevent me from continuing to worry about this benefit, I will definitely draw a line with this incident.

However, since one of them looks too cheesy, they must end this story with two wishes.

‘then… … .’

I wanted to make sure I got what I was getting at this point.

“Then, first, I would like you to change the clubhouse to a larger one. I know that there are also two-room rooms.”

The existing room was in the form of a one-room apartment.

I had to send Kang Ah-ram out every time as a third party had to stay out to prevent the leakage of the counseling content, but I wanted to relieve the inconvenience this time.

“The two-room is an insolvent room that is only provided to circles with a solid track record. Originally, I couldn’t provide it to a new circle, but… … . If you look at the current performance of your circles, you will be able to force yourself.”

Is it a narrow pass?

I didn’t have any regrets because this was good or bad, so I thought it was good.

The problem was the second request. This was a request I hoped would be accepted.

“next… … . I hope you will allow me to play the violin on the streets of the school.”

“You play the violin?”

Tak Gwang-jun furrowed one eyebrow. It was a face that was difficult to understand the intention of my request.

“It only takes one day. Just one day in a place where many students pass by. I would appreciate it if you would allow me to play the violin.”
