The Spoon Villain Is Obsessed with the Hero Again Today

chapter 31



31 – My Own Villain (3)

Ping ping─!

Late at night, at the Hanyul Military Academy outdoor training ground. A male student sat on a bench, engrossed in a mobile game.

Ping ping─!

“Just a bit more…! Just a bit more…!”

With no one around, the game sounds echoed loudly in the quiet night. It was almost like noise. However, the student paid no attention and continued gripping his phone.

[Game Over]

“Ah, darn it…! This crappy game, damn it…!”

Thunk─!

Game over. Seeing that message, the student threw his phone. Right onto the dirt.

“Oh my. What will you accomplish by throwing that expensive phone on the ground?”

Not long after, a female student appeared on the training ground. Soon, she picked up the phone that had fallen to the ground and brushed off the dust.

Even in the dark night, her eyes sparkled with eye makeup, bold blush, and bright red tint. She was a combatant, belonging to the White Cross Unit—Baek Joo-hee.

“Even if you’re the heir to a conglomerate, you should know the value of money, right, junior?”

Fortunately, the phone was in perfect condition, without a scratch. Baek Joo-hee extended the phone to the male student.

“Anyway, congratulations on returning to school. It’s been about a year, hasn’t it?”

“….”

However, despite the warm greeting from Baek Joo-hee, the male student still maintained a stiff expression. He stared intently at Baek Joo-hee in that state.

“But really, who are you to act like you know me?”

“It’s Baek Joo-hee! Baek Joo-hee! We met last week too!”

“Oh, you’re Baek Joo-hee. Sorry.”

Only then did the male student accept the phone offered by Baek Joo-hee. Making sure there was no remaining dust, he wiped the phone with a breath, the wind blowing through.

“So, how does it feel to be back at school?”

“Oh, it’s f*cking awful. Just thinking about being stuck in the classroom from tomorrow.”

“hehehehe, your temperament hasn’t changed.”

Even though she spoke in a relaxed manner, in reality, Baek Joo-hee was nursing her feelings. Her heart was still pounding.

What if she made a verbal slip and angered him? That was the thought running through her mind.

He was a formidable opponent, no different from a wild beast. Once he started biting, he wouldn’t hesitate to tear everything around him apart. If she made a mistake, she should be prepared to give up at least one arm.

Despite knowing how dangerous he was, Baek Ju-hee approached him like this.

For her own purposes.

“Um, excuse me, I have a favor to ask.”

“A favor?”

This male student possessed a power that Baek Ju-hee didn’t have. He didn’t hold the title of “top student” for no reason. His strength even surpassed the top student, Ah-na, in their grade.

At least that’s what Baek Ju-hee thought.

“Could you do me a favor and help someone?”

“Someone? Hah, heh…”

Upon hearing Baek Ju-hee’s words, the male student burst into laughter.

“hahahahaha! Oh, goodness… hahahaha!”

“What, what’s so funny!”

He chuckled to the point of clutching his belly. Soon enough, wiping the tears from his eyes, the male student replied.

“Hey, I’m not some hired assassin. I don’t do that kind of stuff.”

“But, but last year, you…”

“This year, I’m different. I’ve recently taken up burglary.”

“Burglary…! And what about that cross necklace…!”

Baek Ju-hee pointed at the other person’s neck. The male student followed her finger and lowered his head.

“Oops, yeah, my family was Christian.”

The male student hurriedly tucked the protruding cross necklace inside his clothes.

“Hey, why not? Just once! Huh? It’s not like it’s such a difficult task. Even someone who only carries a spoon… Ugh!”

Thud!

It happened in the blink of an eye. The male student had grabbed Baek Ju-hee by the collar. It happened so suddenly that Baek Ju-hee lost her words.

“Hey.”

A completely different tone from before. With a fierce look in his eyes, the male student spoke to Baek Ju-hee.

“I just said I wouldn’t do it. But why do you keep pestering me? It’s irritating.”

“S-sorry…”

“When someone says nicely, do you just crawl all over them? Huh?”

Tap, tap.

The male student lightly tapped Baek Ju-hee’s cheek several times. Baek Ju-hee could only tremble without any resistance.

Like a rabbit standing in front of a tiger.

“And. I’m not leisurely enough to deal with those guys.”

The male student pushed away the hand that had grabbed his collar.

“Kyak!”

Baek Ju-hee groaned as she fell on her buttocks. The male student then stood up from the bench and approached Baek Ju-hee.

“Hey, do you know why I came back to this school?”

Tuck.

The male student bent his knee, staring directly into Baek Ju-hee’s eyes with a face devoid of any laughter.

“I came back to reclaim the top spot in my grade that was originally mine. I came here for that alone, nothing else.”

Chwaak─!

At the same moment, at Hanyul Military Academy Hospital. Choi Soeun, pulling the curtain of the hospital bed, asked me.

“What did you do this time to injure your waist? Seriously, aren’t you tired of this…?”

Currently, I am sitting on the bed wearing a patient gown. In other words, I am in a hospitalized state.

Honestly, I thought I could handle at least one person easily. But hearing it firsthand, it wasn’t as simple as I imagined. Arna was a formidable opponent beyond what I had envisioned.

She seemed no different from other girls at first glance. Where did that weight come from? Perhaps it was the chest that was the issue.

Fortunately, the examination showed no abnormalities in the bones. They said it was just a slight strain on the lower back ligament.

Although the doctor advised me to return immediately after the examination, I insisted on staying hospitalized just in case.

The waist is just as precious as hair. Similarly, one should take care of the waist in advance when possible.

“Anyway… I’ll leave the hot pack here.”

Soeun placed a cold pack and a few towels on the shelf. It was a fairly sophisticated hot pack that looked medical.

“Is there anything else you need?”

“Food. The hospital food tastes awful.”

Meal. I wanted to pass through this at least.

I felt this during my last hospitalization, but the hospital food here was truly tasteless.

Although hospital food, in general, is like that, the food here surpassed that limit. It was overly healthy.

“Can’t you endure that much? You’re going to be discharged in a few days anyway.”

“How about ordering delivery?”

“Is that possible…?”

Te-ee-ee-ee-ee-ng.

The moment when I missed the combat rations I had during the last training. Still, it had a stimulating taste.

Ah, I wonder where I can find a place to eat. Convenience store food is a bit meh. I want a proper homemade meal.

“That’s right. Soeun, you’re here.”

“Huh…?”

“And if you could make my food.”

Why didn’t I think of that? Soeun is an option to make my food.

Her cooking skills are to die for. The taste is excellent. It’s also nice that she doesn’t take too long.

If it’s that kind of meal, I wouldn’t get tired of it even if I ate it every day for the rest of my life.

“I’m not your personal nutritionist… Why do I have to do that?”

“Why? You did a good job last time.”

“Well, that time…!”

Why did I bring up something embarrassing? Soeun raised her voice, blushing.

But then she quickly calmed down and whispered softly.

“That was just a one-time thing…”

“A one-time thing? So, there won’t be a next time?”

“Why do you think there would be a next time?”

Teeeng.

I was more shocked than when I hurt my back earlier.

I won’t be able to eat that food again. Does that mean goodbye to the beef and mushroom stir-fry too? Was that really our first and last meeting?

Oh my.

Tears welled up.

“Hey, stop crying! This is definitely not the right timing to cry!”

Instinctively, Soeun held up a towel and wiped away my tears. It felt like I had become a grandfather in a nursing home.

“Ah, I get it! I’ll do it! Just stop crying, okay!”

In the end, Soeun raised the white flag.

Indeed, the juice of repentance was invincible. Soeun was no exception in the face of tears. Only women seemed to use this good method. I should also use it more often in the future.

“Ha… What’s up with a grown man crying…”

“Even men cry sometimes. It signifies how painful something is.”

“What on earth is so special about that food…”

Soeun pouted, admitting her defeat. Anyway, it seems that I have succeeded in getting lunchbox.

“But I can’t cook for every meal. I have class and work too.”

“I don’t expect anything more than a late-night snack.”

“Really… Why on earth…”

Choi So-min couldn’t believe it, putting her hand on her forehead.

That’s why I shouldn’t have given her a lunchbox from the beginning. Thanks to that, my taste buds have become picky.

It’s all Choi So-min’s fault for making me like this. So she has the responsibility to take care of me. Because I’ve become a body that can’t be satisfied with regular meals.

A lunchbox delivery for life imprisonment.

Tingling.

“Anyway… I’ll leave now. I have to visit other patients too.”

“Okay, see you tomorrow.”

“And don’t forget to use the warm pack.”

Leaving her last words of advice, Choi So-min left the hospital room.

I wonder what the menu will be tomorrow. Whatever it is, it will be much better than hospital food. I want to eat it quickly.

I lay down on the bed, imagining a happy scene.

“Ugh…!”

Damn it. I forgot about the pain in my waist because I carelessly lay down. Stupid back pain.

“…”

Come to think of it, it’s a bit unfair. I only carried the simple arna. But my foolish waist is the one that got hurt. On the other hand, Arna was perfectly fine.

I can’t just keep on suffering like this. I can’t be the only one to die. You should experience it too.

I quickly picked up my phone and accessed the school community.

<Title>

Has anyone seen the new sports wear photoshoot?

<Content>

It’s somehow different from the previous one ㅠㅠ?

The previous photoshoot was really beautiful, but this one is a bit…

I think it’s not a problem with the product, but the model is a bit disappointing ㅜㅜ!!!

The model’s face seems puffy… slightly? And I can see a little potbelly… Her legs have become much thicker than before… Maybe she didn’t take care of herself, what should I doㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

I used to always buy two or three of the arna’s photos because she was always so pretty. But I don’t want to buy this one… I need to close my wallet…

How do other fans feel when they see it? Am I the only one who feels strange ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ?

“Hoo.”

Indeed, there’s nothing like this when it comes to relieving stress. With this, I can freely tease Arna without anyone noticing.

In fact, about half of the derogatory posts that come up when searching for Arna can be attributed to me. I make sure to write at least five of them every day.

hehehehe.

Ding—

At that moment, the sound of a phone notification rang out. Comments were posted on my writing.

Ding—

Ding—

Ding—

And not just once, but several times within this short period. Quite an impressive firepower.

I quickly checked the comments.

└ Anonymous2812: Hey!

└ Anonymous2812: Answer!

“….”

It’s supposed to be an anonymous bulletin board. Why are the names visible?

This is also a skill, indeed.
