City of Backstreet Nymphs

chapter 267



267 – Seo Ye-rim, the flame is taken away!? # 2

267 – Seo Ye-rim, loses her spark!? # 2

Tiririririririn-!

I thought I heard a fire alarm, and then cold water poured down like rain.

Fire?

While I was feeling puzzled, Oinoi, who was drinking warm peppermint tea, was happy.

“It’s raining even though it’s indoors…” ! Perhaps this Oinoi may have discovered a new abnormal weather phenomenon in Korea in the 21st century… !”

The nymphs seemed happy to have been hit by fire sprinklers, but I felt a little worried as I wondered if there was a fire somewhere in this cafe.

Fortunately, there are two nymphs by my side who can spit out a stream of water with their mouths so strong that it threatens to make a fire truck’s hydraulic hose go away.

“Evacuate! Evacuation! “Kkeungkeungah, Angangah, please evacuate the people!”

━Kkeongkeong… !

━Zuji… !

After evacuating the people in the cafe as I had been trained to do, I went to the bathroom where the commotion had occurred.

It seemed like Seo Ye-rim probably started the fire.

“Hey! Seo Ye-rim! Are you okay?”

I opened the door to the women’s bathroom and entered.

Then I saw Yerim lying face down on her floor, moving her hands around her floor.

“Dog squirrel… ?”

As someone who lives with a dog squirrel and is one of the residents of Taecho Village, I could easily see the dog squirrels digging in the ground.

Squirrels liked digging.

You’re digging a lot of ground with your front legs?

This is probably due to their habit of digging tunnels and hiding to avoid tiger owls and other fearsome natural enemies. The way Seo Ye-rim was digging up her floor was exactly like that of a dog squirrel.

“Hey! Come out here! Where have you gone! “Give me my fire!”

Seo Ye-rim seemed to be in a big panic.

I thought it would be better to hide my embarrassment in many ways and go outside with Seo Ye-rim in tow.

The cafe where everyone evacuated with that feeling.

I asked Seo Ye-rim, who seemed a little calm.

“What on earth happened? “Why did you start a fire in the cafe?”

“I didn’t pay it! You stole my fire! You stole my spark! “You naughty thief!”

Seo Ye-rim was almost half crazy.

Her hair was very wet and her makeup was smeared, but she felt so lost that she didn’t have time to care about such things.

It was my first time seeing Seo Ye-rim so embarrassed, so she embarrassed me for no reason.

“Seo Ye-rim, don’t get excited and explain calmly. Do you remember she went through an anger management meditation program? Follow me. First. “Anger cannot control me.”

“Anger is… You can dominate me… Does not exist… ?”

“Second. “Anger cannot control me.”

“Anger can control me… No… “f*ck, that’s what I just did!”

It was Seo Ye-rim who got angry.

However, I couldn’t help but be very surprised in this situation because there was no heat radiating from Seo Ye-rim when she got angry.

For those with flame-related abilities, the temperature around them rises and falls depending on their emotions.

Even though Seo Ye-rim got angry, the temperature did not rise… Could it be because Seo Ye-rim is now able to completely control herself?

No, it’s not like that.

“You said someone stole your flame. “What on earth happened?”

In today’s world, trends and public opinion can change quickly overnight.

It was only a few days ago that the Internet was in an uproar about me bringing the saint of Midland, the people of the pilgrim village, and the demon king Barbatos into the 21st century.

It really happened a few days ago.

「Title: Gu Mi-hee was a villain. Who is responsible for this?

Content: Isn’t it negligent management to turn a villain into an S ranker?”

「Title: I guess I have to immigrate hahahahaha

Content: How can you live safely in a country where a crazy S Ranker is terrorizing?”

「Title: Is it true that Seo Ye-rim was also robbed of her abilities?

Content: They say Gumi-hee steals other people’s abilities?”

Today’s Internet was full of provocative and despairing posts, as if what people praised and praised my feat a few days ago was a lie.

How can a trend stop in less than a week?

Honestly, it is a worthy incident.

Gumi-hee, who was a new S ranker, attacked Seo Ye-rim and took away her flame ability. This meant that two of Korea’s three S-rankers were left empty.

Honestly, it’s not surprising if people panic.

Korea is a country where T-class cracks occurred particularly frequently.

By sucking up that honey, Korea became a powerhouse in the 5th industrial revolution and ranked second in world GDP, but everything had its drawbacks.

Now that two S rankers are gone, will Cha Yu-ra be able to take charge of the T-class cracks that will continue to occur on her own?

Still, some hope remained.

“I decided to work in Korea until the situation there is resolved. “Shouldn’t we help each other as neighboring countries?”

Japan’s S ranker Tsubaki has decided to be sent to Korea for a long period of time.

It is said that Japan’s awakened people’s union, the Korean government, and the Korean government carried out the work in a hurry.

Tsubaki Yagami is a person with the ability to strengthen the body and has the skills to be the single number of the S rankers, so she should be able to somehow fill the void left by Seo Ye-rim.

“Tsubaki, I’m so glad I have you.”

“Well, I’m not working for free either. Japan can now take priority in future diplomatic matters with Korea. Rather….”

Tsubaki seemed to be more worried about other things than diplomacy or security.

“I’ve known Yerim for a long time, but I’ve never seen her so depressed. “You’ve become calm and calm, like a completely different person.”

Tsubaki looked at Seo Ye-rim sitting on a bench installed in the yard.

Seo Ye-rim sat as if a boxer who had fought for several rounds without stopping had turned white.

━Kkeongkeong… !

━Zuji… !

━Hiooong… ?

Even when Kkungkkung, Angang, and Bangkkwang stood up and down Yerim’s shoulders, climbed on her lap, and sat on top of her head, they didn’t move at all.

Normally, she would pretend not to care and would just pat the small animals on their backs or their heads, or wave them away, saying they were annoying.

Today’s Seoye-rim just looked like a natural environment, like rocks or trees.

She deserved it.

Her own ability, ‘spark’, was taken away.

What would Seo Ye-rim be without a spark?

Chuck-!

Then suddenly, Seo Ye-rim stretched out her palm towards the empty space.

She seemed as if she was about to emit a flame, but nothing happened.

“… ….”

Seo Ye-rim looked into her own palm.

She still seemed unable to believe her situation.

Rumbling.

At that time, several black cars came towards Taecho Village.

I was momentarily taken aback by the appearance of a strike team armed with men dressed in black and the latest combat suits, but their suits had “Tel” Written on them in English.

They were the strike team “Illuminators,” Known as the solvers of Megacorp Telos. Among them was Ahn Young-eun, a woman who wondered if the expression ‘secretary’ suited her so well.

“Yerim. Let’s go. It’s dangerous for you to be outside. From now on, you will have to stay in the safe house 24 hours a day. “Your father is looking for you.”

Several people grabbed Seo Ye-rim’s shoulders and arms and lifted her up from the bench.

Then, as if her quiet behavior until now was a lie, Seo Ye-rim started to stir up and down and cause a scene.

“Let go! I’m not going! Why should I hide in a safe house? I’m going to catch that thief b*tch! I’m not going back until I catch that guy… !”

I heard that Telos’ strike team is a group of prominent awakeners. Even for them, they all seemed to have a hard time taking Seo Ye-rim, who was an S ranker, by force.

She only lost her flame abilities, but she didn’t lose all of her physical abilities that were enhanced by mana.

“Mr. Ildo, please do something!”

Ahn Young-eun said to me as I was watching this situation.

“Who, me?”

What do you want me to do?

But when she thought about it, it might have been better for Yerim to be protected in Telos Corporation’s safe house.

Now that the rumor has spread that Seo Ye-rim has lost her powers, you never know what kind of guys might attack her again, right?

Because Seo Ye-rim is the princess of Megacorp.

This means that there are many terrorist groups that want to take Seo Ye-rim hostage and demand money from her.

“Seo Ye-rim, let’s go to your company first. Kkungkkwang, Kwangkwang, Angang, you guys come too. Oinoi! Let’s go together too! Tsubaki, you’re going too.”

I boarded the Telos company vehicle.

Then Seo Ye-rim, who was struggling, clicked her tongue and said, “Tch.” And got on next to me.

Slurrr-.

The cars moved smoothly out of Taecho Village and we arrived at Telos Corporation’s headquarters in less than an hour.

Buildings over 100 stories had a very grand and powerful aspect.

“I feel this every time I see it, but this sky-high height is extremely nymph-friendly… ! Oinoi also wants to live in a big castle like this someday… !”

“Of Calls… ! A building that truly shows the power of capitalism… ! Industry Telos’ headquarters is a nymph-friendly building… ! Let’s enter… !”

We went up to the building and headed to the top floor.

On the top floor was the office and personal study of Seo Sang-yong, a prominent and legendary man who turned Telos into a global extralegal company.

I had seen Seo Sang-yong before, but he was an impressive man with a very weighty and sharp appearance.

Perhaps because he is one of the people who control the world, even though he is not an awakened person, he exudes a force that seems to overwhelm most S rankers.

“Seo Ye-rim. From now on, you must enter the safe house at the coordinates I designate and do not come out until the situation is over. “This is not a request from a father, but an order from a superior.”

Seo Sang-yong spoke in a cool and cold voice.

Soon, Seo Ye-rim became angry.

“It’s my mistake and I have to deal with it! And yet you leave it to someone else and hide. “That kind of thing—.”

“Seo Ye-rim, this happened because you couldn’t handle it. And since this has already happened, let me tell you. Honestly, I think it’s a good thing. “I was also opposed to your work as an awakened person.”
