Regression Of The Dating Sim Player - CH 14

5. The Misunderstanding (1)

Yoon Seung-Jae enthusiastically said, “I want to go around the dungeon quickly.”

And began to undergo combat training in earnest.

A month after Yoon Seung-Jae woke up, it was also time to train to focus on expression rather than physical training.

Yoon Seung-Jae took seventeen swordsmanship classes.

Ye-Hyeon didn’t know, but he seemed to be interested in swords.

‘Will he be disappointed if he expresses himself as a tanker?’

Ye-Hyeon, who felt sorry for him because it didn’t seem like anyone else’s business, quickly came to his senses.

Yoon Seung-Jae is S-level.

Who’s worried about who?

He is different from Ye-Hyeon, who needs to keep his body healthy.

Ye-Hyeon feels bitter.

As long as he is not tired, Yoon Seung-Jae will attend training school all day.

It would be difficult to see Yoon Seung-Jae’s face for a week as a result.

Ye-Hyeon still lacked basic physical strength so he refused to take sword lessons together with Yoon Seung-Jae.

‘That’s that and…’

Ye-Hyeon sighed deeply as he looked up at the building of the fitness center.

He kept bumping into Shin Do-Gyeom since the day they finished the gate experience.

Ye-Hyeon was hungry and stopped at a convenience store on impulse.

When he bumped into Shin Do-Gyeom in a narrow corner.

They are close enough that his forehead can touch Shin Do-Gyeom’s shoulder.

Now that Ye-Hyeon thought about it, he should have said hello, but he was embarrassed and stared stiffly at Shin Do-Gyeom.

He remembered the time he was browsing the internet. Baek Hae-Won’s fans wrote things like, “I met the real thing and froze in place.”

and that’s exactly what Ye-Hyeon looked like.

He couldn’t remember how he managed to move and left the convenience store.

He must have looked suspicious.

It would have been nice if it had simply ruined the first impression, as it was during Yoon Seung-Jae’s time, but since then, the coincidence has been repeated unwantedly.

Starting from the time Ye-Hyeon went for a walk to the park, after lunch in the quiet restaurant, and even the fitness center. Ye-Hyeon is everywhere.

Shin Do-Gyeom encountered Ye-Hyeon more than once a day and he seemed to have memorized Ye-Hyeon’s face.

The problem was that he was remembered in a bad way.

Shin Do-Gyeom’s expression became more and more harsh as the days went by.

Shin Do-Gyeom seems to have misunderstood that he is following him around because he arrive later than him every time.

He will be marked as a stalker if he went to the archery range.

It would seem ambiguous to say hello after missing the timing on their first encounter.

The beginning is completely twisted.

The whole situation is ruined and it isn’t in the level where he only got the first button wrong.

He wondered if it was because he wanted to look good infront of Shin Do-Gyeom since he had admired him for a long time, he keeps stammering in front of him.

Ye-Hyeon was nervous when he was talking to Shin Do-Gyeom, but it wasn’t this severe.

Ye-Hyeon entered the fitness center with his shoulders dropped.

‘but you’re not going to run into me here, are you?’ Ye-Hyeon thought.

Ye-Hyeon hid behind the pillar and peeped inside.

Most of the places Ye-Hyeon encountered with Shin Do-Gyeom were around the accommodation.

Fortunately, he did not saw any signs of Shin Do-Gyeom as he intentionally came to the fitness center far from the accommodation.

‘Phew. I didn’t do anything wrong. What’s the trouble? I was thirsty, maybe because I was nervous before coming in.’

It was when Ye-Hyeon just stepped into the hallway leading to the lounge.

Ye-Hyeon found Shin Do-Gyeom walking from the other side.

‘Run away…. We’ve come a long way. I’m really doomed.’

Ye-Hyeon’s face darkened, but he held back what he wanted to do.

If he run away, it would be no different from confessing that he is really suspicious.

“Who are you?”

“What?”

“Why are you following me around? Are you a stalker?”

Hostility flowed down Shin Do-Gyeom’s sharp tone.

Ye-Hyeon wanted to say no, but he couldn’t speak well because he was in front of Shin Do-Gyeom.

“How did you know I was here?”

“Well, I mean…”

“What are you up to? Don’t follow me around in a gloomy way, if you have something to say, say it now.”

Shin Do-Gyeom looked down fiercely at Ye-Hyeon.

Ye-Hyeon’s mouth was burning with a frosty gaze in the middle of winter.

“Misunderstanding, it’s all a misunderstanding!”

“Is it?”

“It’s true. It’s all a coincidence. Why would I be chasing you when you’re busy training?”

“I don’t know.”

Shin Do-Gyeom’s cold response made him upset.

It seemed to be a solid understatement.

Ye-Hyeon opened his mouth after taking a deep breath.

“…You could have been chasing me.”

“What?”

“What do you mean you came here first? I’m upset, too.”

Ye-Hyeon continued to forcefully look into Shin Do-Gyeom’s eyes.

Ye-Hyeon pretended not to, but his neck was burning.

Even without looking in the mirror, it was obvious that Ye-Hyeon’s face would be burning up.

However, Ye-Hyeon couldn’t back down because he thought it might be his last chance to get close to Shin Do-Gyeom.

Ye-Hyeon really wanted to get close to Shin Do-Gyeom, regardless of whether he was a target or not.

‘It wasn’t hard before I returned.’

Ye-Hyeon mumbled.

When Ye-Hyeon found Shin Do-Gyeom in the lobby of the management office, he thought he would be able to get close easily, so the current situation was quite embarrassing.

Before his return, Shin Do-Gyeom positively evaluated Ye-Hyeon even on their first meeting.

Of course, it was a fact that Ye-Hyeon learned to read Shin Do-Gyeom’s inner thoughts after a long time, but thanks to that, Ye-Hyeon naturally exchanged conversations whenever they attacked the dungeon and slowly became close.

Of course, being close means saying one or two more words than others on a congregation-based basis, and objectively. It was only a humble relationship, but the important thing was that he was not that difficult to approach.

This time, Ye-Hyeon had an ominous feeling that they would not be able to talk to each other, let alone get close.

“Ha.”

When Ye-Hyeon shamelessly replied, Shin Do-Gyeom was dumbfounded and burst out laughing.

Even if it wasn’t a proper laugh, it was unusual for Shin Do-Gyeom to make a face other than staring or being annoyed.

“Don’t get in my sight from now on, because it’s annoying.”

Shin Do-Gyeom passed by Ye-Hyeon after warning him like that.

“Wait a minute!”

Ye-Hyeon rushed after Shin Do-Gyeom.

Ye-Hyeon was going to hold Shin Do-Gyeom’s wrist, but Shin Do-Gyeom, who noticed the signs, quickly avoided it and Ye-Hyeon’s hands touched the air in vain.

However, Ye-Hyeon did not give up and stretched his left arm toward Shin Do-Gyeom’s back, pretending to have fallen by mistake.

Shin Do-Gyeom also turned sharply this time, but his skin brushed past the thin T-shirt on Ye-Hyeon’s fingertips.

[system]

Target 3: Shin Do-Gyeom was found.

[system]

The intimacy of ‘Attack Target 3: Shin Do-Gyeom has decreased by 3 points.

At the same time, Shin Do-Gyeom violently hit the back of Ye-Hyeon’s hand.

There was a loud snap in the hallway.

“Don’t touch me.”

Ye-Hyeon couldn’t be happy, even though he found out that Shin Do-Gyeom was a target.

It was because Shin Do-Gyeom, who turned coldly, showed contempt beyond irritation.

He looked so cruel that his stomach was throbbing.

“I’m sorry…”

Shin Do-Gyeom left without even listening to his apology.

Left alone, Ye-Hyeon looked blankly at the back of his red-hot hand and rubbed it gently.

The pale face, which had been distorted, remained like an afterimage and could not be erased.

It took a long time before Ye-Hyeon opened the target window.

“Can the intimacy fall before it could increase?”

<Attack Target 3: Shin Do-Gyeom>

Intimacy: -8

Affinity: 4

Ye-Hyeon’s widened.

“Negative?”

Since three points were dropped this time, it meant that the intimacy was already -5 points.

Yoon Seung-Jae’s -8 points were never a figure to be easily overcome if he was substituted for being friendly even with only 5 points of intimacy.

“Is there a positive or negative 100?”

Meanwhile, the level of affection was four points.

He’s been together with Yoon Seung-Jae for nearly a month, but it was one point higher.

“I really don’t know.”

Ye-Hyeon murmured feeling dejected.

It came true as Ye-Hyeon wanted, but it was only bitter.

“Oh, I don’t know. It’ll work out somehow.”

Ye-Hyeon stretched his head and passed on a problem that could not be solved immediately.

Shin Do-Gyeom seemed to have left the fitness center.

He frowned while he checked the condition of the fitness machine before he started exercising.

There was a disk the thickness of the forearm attached to both sides of the instrument with a little exaggeration.

The original plate, made of special alloys, looked 200kg.

It was not just the instrument.

A disk of similar thickness was inserted into all the surrounding instruments.

It seemed like someone wanted to show off their strength.

“The used disk should be put in place, isn’t that the basic?”

Ye-Hyeon touched the disk with a fed-up look.

Naturally, he didn’t lift it up.

Ye-Hyeon knew his limitations better than anyone else.

It was clear that if he did this alone, his back would break.

‘I…… The organization would not have been left unattended in this way. Should I go somewhere else? It’s annoying…. I came all the way here and ran into Shin Do-Gyeom’

Ye-Hyeon rose up from his seat after hesitating and thinking.

Ye-Hyeon was about to give up and leave, when someone came up behind Ye-Hyeon.
