Chapter 292: Departure Of The Patriotism Train (8)
Yumir was a patriot.
To be precise, she liked and enjoyed patriotism.
After her first experience with patriotism, Yumir fell deeply in love with it.
Baek Seol-hee also liked patriotism, but one act of patriotism quickly relieved her pent-up frustrations, while Yumir liked it openly.
More than anything, as her first experience was done outside, she was no ordinary woman.
She was not Korean but a foreigner—Canadian.
She was not someone to be judged by Confucian values.
Moreover, the two men and women we were borrowing appearances from were quite open about such directions, so such actions did not greatly interfere with this couple’s ‘plausibility.’
But.
No matter how much.No matter how much she had transformed into another woman’s body.
‘That’s not right.’
Was it right to use that body to show such actions in front of another man?
‘To do it in front of Armored Taejo? That’s not acceptable.’
No.
That’s an unacceptable act.
If someone hoped to see acts of patriotism directly in a train seat, that’s something that couldn’t happen here.
‘Even if the Chief requests it, I can’t comply.’
It was a story that would only occur in places meant for adults, and right now, this place was full of dreams and hopes with people leading the future.
You couldn’t do such acts ‘directly’ in public places.
Even if it was not a public place, you couldn’t show it directly.
Unless someone put a bomb necklace around your neck and threatened to kill the hostage if you didn’t act patriotically, you couldn’t do such acts.
Why?
‘Because I’m not Do Ji-hwan right now, how can I do such a thing?’
I was not Do Ji-hwan right now.
‘Transformation NTR is unacceptable.’
My appearance was not Do Ji-hwan.
No matter how Yumir and I both transformed into different appearances, I couldn’t show doing patriotic acts with this appearance.
If I had come here as Do Ji-hwan, that would be fine.
Whether Yumir transformed or not, whether we kissed or not, it would be with Do Ji-hwan.
But right now, my appearance was not Do Ji-hwan.
If I acted patriotically with Yumir in my current state, Yumir would be doing it with another man, even if it’s just the appearance.
In short.
It’s NTR.
It’s okay to act patriotically secretly in public places; you could even reveal your patriotism in Gwanghwamun Square in an invisible state with a barrier.
Even a pseudo-NTR was unacceptable.
Therefore.
We only did what could be done in public places.
No matter how much we borrowed the bodies of the couple and transformed, we didn’t do such acts.
If someone expected public obscenity on this patriot train, I’d like to tell them to put that thought away.
Instead.
“This is how it’s done. Understand?”
“……Should I also mimic the angle of the fingers?”
“The fingers like this. Make them like a hook. Yes. Lift them. And the wrist snap like this.”
“Like, like this?”
“Yes.”
I waved my hand in the air.
Taejo followed my hand movements with a serious face, occasionally copying the position I changed my hand to.
“Good. You are indeed amazing. This much with the hand should suffice.”
“…….”
Taejo kept twitching his fingers.
He continuously flexed the joints of his fingers, making a hooked hand and releasing it repeatedly, like a professional thief showing off finger snaps on the street.
I passed on my finger movements to the air.
“Now that your hands are flexible, you should be able to handle enemies with these flexible hands when fighting.”
“…….”
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
Taejo scratched his chin with his hand and tilted his head.
“I was wondering if you’d show it directly.”
“We’re on a mission; we can’t do that. Especially in a place like this.”
“…….”
This guy.
He was expecting it.
At the same time, he looked slightly disappointed.
Even though he already realized that I was an amazing technician just by my fingers, the real thing had to be shown elsewhere.
“I’ll show you at the Gaeseong Hotel. But I can’t show it directly; I’ll show it through the silhouette behind the canopy curtain. Recorded on video.”
“…Really?”
“Yes. No matter what, showing it directly is a bit much.”
“Hmm….”
Taejo looked confused.
He was trying to figure out how much truth there was in what the man named Hyeon Cheolsu was saying.
Yumir would have caught on with a ‘maybe’ look when I first said it, but unfortunately, Taejo didn’t seem that sharp.
“Mr. Kim Tae-sik.”
I corrected my posture.
Yumir, next to me, continued to stroke my forearm, which I had kept raised, with both hands, while Taejo looked at me, trying to ignore Yumir’s fingers moving on my arm.
“It’s difficult to explain in detail the circumstances between my future wife and me. The silhouette at best….”
“Oppa, how about calling another ‘instructor’ then?”
To help the still unaware Taejo, Yumir directly provided support.
“If it bothers you, you can call another female instructor to show you oppa’s technique directly.”
“……Ms. Jeong Yeong-hui?”
“That’s right. Oppa just doesn’t want other men to know about our private matters. I oppose it though.”
“Hmm….”
Taejo’s expression began to harden.
“Yeong-hui, are you telling me to cheat?”
“Oppa, do you think I’d get jealous if Tae-sik helps with patriotism? Everything is for the country, for the nation. Gwang Ik Gong would acknowledge it too.”
“……Huh?”
He alternately looked at Yumir and me with a serious face, then suddenly clapped his hands as if he realized something.
“…Ah.”
Phew.
“Ah, ha ha ha. I see. I should have asked more questions.”
Good.
“I’m sorry, both of you. I didn’t understand that there were parts that are difficult to discuss directly.”
It seemed he finally noticed.
“So, later when I go to the Gaeseong Hotel, I plan to have a light afterparty with the idol group at the back.”
The Taejo who had been focused on the lecture on interpersonal combat just a moment ago disappeared, and Taejo (Black) started asking seriously.
“If Yeong-hui is okay with it, can I ‘invite’ Cheolsu to that afterparty?”
Invite.
That’s the keyword.
The one who set that keyword was none other than Taejo himself.
“Yeong-hui, are you okay with it?”
“I’m okay with anything if oppa is okay with it.”
At first glance, it sounded like a very dangerous story, but this was all a process for mutual identity verification.
“Thank you for the invitation, Kim Tae-sik. I’ll line up at the back during the afterparty.”
“…Hoo, hoho.”
Taejo nodded lightly with a relieved face.
“I look forward to it.”
“Of course. As the invited man, I will do my best.”
It came exactly as Taejo joked.
“Much better. Then.”
Taejo took his stance again with a serious face.
“…If I’m going to deal with two beauties from China and Russia, how should I handle it?”
Finally.
“Cheolsu, can you handle both of them? Both are S-class in terms of physicality.”
“Kim Tae-sik. I am an invited man of Special EX-class.”
We could finally get to the main point.
“Two? Four? From now on, I’ll teach you the technique to handle even five.”
Late at night. Gaeseong, Hotel.
“Whew.”
Yumir threw herself onto the bed.
“When is Kim Tae-sik coming?”
“He’s not coming. He went separately to have a drink with the idols.”
“Sigh.”
Flash.
Gold light leaked out of Yumir’s body, and soon she returned to her original appearance.
“Haa….”
“Is it okay to undo the transformation so casually?”
“Oppa, you also undid your transformation as soon as you entered the room…Oops.”
Yumir covered her mouth with her hand.
“Is there any eavesdropping-”
“There’s nothing. It’s safe.”
“Oh. Indeed. If there was, you wouldn’t have undone your transformation in the first place.”
“You undid your transformation after seeing me do it, right?”
The fact that I undid my transformation meant it was that safe.
Even if we were assigned the same room as Taejo, we could control other risk factors enough.
“And we can notice before Taejo arrives, so just transform immediately when I signal. Got it?”
“Yes. …Ugh, I hate it. Not being able to act patriotically as much as I want.”
“We can’t just do it.”
Yumir made a sad face, and I comforted her by tidying her messy hair with my hand.
“If I had just shown it, Taejo would have completely worshipped you as a professor by now.”
“No.”
I grabbed Yumir’s cheeks and pulled them sideways.
“If you really want to show it, do it in front of Baek Seol-hee later, or do it when you’re with the executives of the organization. Taejo might like such things, but I don’t like inviting or being invited by other men.”
“Then how about I invite another woman? You can’t have an invited man, but an invited woman is okay, right?”
“If she’s good enough to join the organization.”
If securing talent for the organization with this body was possible, it’s a cheap trade.
I just hoped the woman Yumir brings wasn’t a frivolous one.
“But you, inviting a friend to me instead of introducing her? What if your friend gets eaten by Goblin?”
“That’s why I’m inviting her. You’re the one who made me like this, oppa.”
Huh?
“Oppa?”
“Oops. Hehe, just oppa, okay?”
“When did you call me teacher and now it’s oppa?”
“Which do you prefer?”
“Call me whatever’s comfortable.”
“Then, only when we’re alone, oppa…. Hehe.”
Yumir, sitting on the bed, licked her lips and started unbuttoning her shirt.
“Then, shall we….”
“No.”
“…Should I just go out for a bit?”
“Let’s see about that later.”
It was good to do.
But now was not the time.
“…It’s a bit bothersome, but we might actually get invited.”
Currently.
“If Taejo finds it hard to handle many alone, he’ll call me. So, be on standby for five minutes.”
Using the Goblin Bat, I was monitoring the situation ‘upstairs’ like CCTV.
No matter how S-class Taejo was, he couldn’t detect my and Yumir’s magic power.
“When a rescue signal comes to the Taeguk Watch, you have to run immediately. So…Hey.”
“Oh, it’s okay until then.”
Yumir hugged me from behind and reached her hand around to my front.
“You can’t do it in a transformed state, and no other man can be present? Is there anything like that now?”
“…….”
Logical.
“Yumir, the more you say strange things, the weirder the situation gets….”
I reached out one hand to Yumir’s head.
“For now, let’s just shut up.”
“……!”
I pushed Yumir’s head down.
