Saved a Heroine From the Brink of Death

27. Cynthia possessed by something

#27. Cynthia possessed by something

Shhh! Arrows flew through the wind.

Cynthia looked at it with a satisfied expression.

Of her, but behind her, Han Seong-jin shook her head with a look.

“Siya. There’s too much strain on her left shoulder.”

“… Is it so?”

“Oh. I think you should lower her left shoulder a bit. After all, if your shoulders are raised a lot, it will take a lot of strength. Do you want to hold your posture as I told you and shoot again?”

“Yes.”

Cynthia hesitated, but nodded and grabbed the bow again. She had never felt bad about listening to Han Seong-jin. She

She already received five corrections, and each time she was successful.

When she listens to him, she gets rice cakes even while sleeping.

And it was the same this time too.

Shhh! Even though she only changed her posture, it was clear that the power of the fired arrows had changed.

“Wow! The power has gone up!”

Cynthia jumped and cheered.

‘But… How did I come to be coached by a man like this… ?’

Cynthia came here suddenly as if possessed.

Certainly, Seongjin Han explained how logically and rationally he said… Oh, really. That sounds very fitting! She nodded her head and….

Before she knew it, she was here, she was shooting archery, and she was being coached by him.

“Shall we take a break at this point and try again?”

“Good!”

… How did you get here

Cynthia decided to take her break and reflect on her thoughts on what had happened before she came here.

***

Cynthia had a drink with Han Seong-jin at her cafe and then got into her car and headed somewhere.

“Where are you going?”

She couldn’t contain her curiosity and asked him a question.

It was because she asked me to go somewhere together instead of self-defense training today.

“A little far. Destination… I will go and tell you.”

Han Seong-jin answered in a blunt way and quickly turned around.

“Rather than that, what do you think about sponsorship?”

“Sponsorship?”

“Oh. There is a promising cadet, and I’m thinking of sponsoring it.”

Cynthia pondered for a moment.

Sponsorship is a mutually beneficial act in a way. Both the receiver and the giver.

It is good for sponsors to give grace to their sponsors and create a connection, and sponsors can grow quickly by receiving support for what they lack.

“I think it’s good to sponsor a promising cadet. But… It’s dangerous when it’s uncertain, and it’s not good because if it’s too certain, everyone will try to sponsor it.”

“The important thing is to sponsor gemstones that others have not discovered. You mean this?”

“Yes.”

“I didn’t know Sia could be this smart, did you?”

“… I’m an academy cadet after all. Don’t ignore it.”

“I heard you got lost in the academy a while ago?”

“That, that….”

“My written grades are also at the bottom.”

“… ….”

“Just kidding. Even if you are smart, you may not be good at that kind of thing. Studying is something that can be overcome with effort.”

“… Do you think so too?”

Han Seong-jin nodded her head.

At that nod, Cynthia’s expression brightened.

“Yes. So that’s what I’m saying… Support. Would you like to take it?”

“… Yes?”

Cynthia was taken aback by Han Seong-jin’s sudden proposal.

She is not to anyone else, but to herself… What is sponsorship? I thought she was eyeing someone else within the academy… She didn’t know that she was herself.

“I think, Shia, that you are a gemstone that others have not discovered.”

“… ….”

Cynthia couldn’t answer what she said, she was troubled.

If she used to, she would have rejected it without a second thought.

She is a patron to herself… It was because she said nothing.

But she has grown up recently, and since she is what Han Seong-jin says, she was a little worried. She wonders if she can get sponsorship… Such worries.

‘… I don’t think this is it though. Although she’s gained a bit of confidence as she’s gained a few traits recently. I think it would be difficult even for the middle ranks with this kind of thing. Even if she received sponsorship, she would only be a nuisance to the man. I can never do anything to just steal my uncle’s money…. Let’s decline the sponsorship.’

She was agitated for a moment, but Cynthia soon made up her mind.

I decided not to receive sponsorship from Han Seong-jin.

She has already received a lot of favors, and she hasn’t even repaid them yet… She couldn’t be in debt like this.

“… Sorry. You told me a good story. I will decline the sponsorship.”

“No. Are you okay. So, can you open the glove box? That one in front uh. There will be a document there.”

“This is… ?”

“If you don’t like sponsorship, how about a contract?”

“… A contract?”

Han Seong-jin casually continued her words as if he had expected that Cynthia would reject her sponsorship.

“Isn’t sponsorship a strong one-sided thing? Is that why you don’t like it?”

“Ah, yes… Because she thinks that she can only receive and not be able to give….”

“However, it is clear that the contract is given and received by both sides. Because it is bound by a contract.”

He spoke quickly, as if he had a motor in his mouth. At Han Seong-jin’s words, Cynthia was gradually sucked in.

“Isn’t a contract a way for both parties to benefit from each other? Yes?”

“… Yes?”

“You have to be careful when signing a contract, but am I a trustworthy person?”

Cynthia nodded her head.

Although we hadn’t met for a long time, Han Seong-jin was definitely a trustworthy person.

“There is no reliable person to stab you in the back, so it would be okay for us to sign a contract?”

“… Yes?”

Cynthia agreed with Han Seong-jin’s logic.

She checked her contract. She was on good terms only. She even had a clause that she could rescind the contract at any time and without any conditions if she wanted to.

In the first place, even if Han Seong-jin wanted to hit the back of the head, he couldn’t. Conversely, he doesn’t know if he hits. It’s never going to happen though.

‘… The conditions are too good for me. If this happens, this is no different from sponsorship… Me?’

Cynthia tilted her head.

Just as she was questioning her, Han Seong-jin opened her mouth again.

“Siya. You have to seize the opportunity when it comes. Did you think it was a good contract?”

“Ah… yes.”

“Then grab it. Don’t hesitate to sign it. That one sign will change your life dramatically.”

Han Seong-jin threw a last word to persuade Cynthia.

“I was a former investor, but there Ah! A lot of exclamations flowed out. Do you know what?”

“Because you regret the choices you made earlier?”

“Right. But there is one more reason. It’s because of envy. Envy and jealousy that someone else made a better contract and better investment than you. Envy. It’s the elasticity that comes with it. Ah! How nice would it be if that was mine? That’s what I think.”

Han Seong-jin finally encouraged Cynthia through feelings of regret and envy.

A contract that anyone would envy.

A contract that you will regret if you don’t sign it.

The contract is right in front of you. Are you still going to leave it like this? Called.

“The pen is tucked away. I already signed it, so all you have to do is you.”

‘hehehe… I need to sign a good contract….’

Cynthia signed the contract as if possessed by her ghost.

Academy cadets are legally treated as adults. Even if she signed the autograph herself, there was no problem.

She did that by the time she signed the contract and handed it over.

The car has arrived at its destination.

“It has arrived.”

“This is… Are you in the mountains?”

“Right. Rather than this being our destination, we have to go further inside here.”

It was in the mountains.

And it was also a place where entry was prohibited.

“Come on! Since we signed a contract, we should nurture our prospects, right? It’s even written in the contract. Second class Han Seong-jin has an obligation to grow top class Cynthia.”

Although it was a summary, there was definitely such a provision. Cynthia nodded her head at Han Seong-jin’s words.

“Then let’s enter the gate.”

“Yes?”

“If you enter the gate and fight the monster, it’s training, right? It would be even better if I corrected my posture there.”

“Ah, yes. Yes… Joe?”

“Then it’s decided. Let’s go!”

Cynthia nodded and followed Seongjin Han up the mountain. She then arrives at a point. There was a gate that emitted blue light.

I felt like I was possessed by her ghost. Cynthia entered the gate with Han Seong-jin.

***

‘I came up with it, but in a good way. Big.’

I smiled thinking of the contract I kept in my arms.

‘It would have been impossible if I hadn’t built trust with Sia… I was thinking about trying it after a little more time has passed. Fortunately, it worked.’

Continuing a logical speech, induce an answer.

Do you think so too? Is it plausible? It only makes you think, and doesn’t give you a chance to think about anything else.

It was a tactic of scammers, but I used it this time.

I’m not a cheater, so it doesn’t matter.

Of course, this method required basic reliability. That’s why scammers look like something trustworthy and honest. It’s a trustworthy face, so you don’t think you’re going to cheat.

Anyway.

I succeeded, and with this, I can properly raise Cynthia from now on.

‘She said, by the way, that the white light did not appear even after drinking the elixir given to her by the principal….’

We talked about many things at the cafe.

Among them was a story about her elixir that I passed on to her headmaster to give to Cynthia.

Unfortunately, it seemed that the third stage of atmospheric chronicity had not been opened yet.

‘Now I have a justification, so I can feed the elixir until it works. There’s not much of a longevity.’

After briefly thinking about the elixir, I stood up.

Now that we’ve had enough rest, it’s time to move.

“Siya. Shall we train again?”

“Yes!”

I was thinking of accomplishing the proper purpose of coming here.

The Hidden Peace obtained by Cynthia.

I was thinking of releasing its ability here.

Combined fire and fire Corrected her shooting posture.

Of course, as a civilian, I couldn’t tell which of her postures was wrong.

-It would be nice if her right foot was removed by about 3cm.

I need help from someone.

The stealthed bodyguard whispered in my ear.

“Shiya, I think it would be better if you shoot with your right foot out about 3cm.”

“Yes!”

The bodyguards do the search, and I leave the instructions.

Hmm… Good night.

By the way, you can go into the place where the monsters are soon.

‘Isn’t everything going on inside the gate? I brought two bodyguards just in case… There won’t be any problems.’

In the original work, Lee Soo-hyeok went in and out alone… There won’t be any problems with four people coming in, right?

Let’s not worry about anything.
