The next morning Sunz wakes up, checks his phone (It’s 8 a.m.), gets out of his corner, looks around the room, and sees that Grimm is gone (I guess we are allowed to go back to our room.)

Then Sunz hear a voice “Hey buddy can you help me?” Sunz moves and looks around the room to check where the voice comes from. To his surprise, it was Jihu asking him for help. Jihu is still being restrained by Grace from last night's incident.

Sunz asks Jihu: How long have you been awake?

Jihu: Not that long 5-10 minutes before you wake up. Now if you don’t mind, help me get out of this situation, please.

Sunz: You’re right next to her! Why not do it yourself?

Jihu: Having you do it for me will make it looks like you’re annoyed with her clinging to me. So it will be less awkward for her and more on the confused side.

Sunz: Sure! Anything for you “Pretty boy”.

Sunz then goes to Grace's side of the bed and gives her a few taps on the shoulder. Which is enough to wake her up but she still feels groggy. Grace turns her head to Sunz and said “Hi”. Sunz replies “Hi! Turn your head to the other side please.” Still feeling sleepy she does what Sunz said and when she turns her head, she sees that Jihu is right next to her.

At that moment her body starts waking up. She sees that her arms wrap around Jihu, which starts a chain reaction of emotion ended with her face becoming extremely red due to feeling embarrassed. She releases Jihu out of her grasp and makes her way to the bathroom in the flash of an eye.

Jihu gets out of the bed and said: Well that was an experience. I owe you this one.

Sunz now switches his language to Korean: Yeah, you owe me nothing. Just how are you going explain this to “Class Rep”?

Jihu then also switch to speaking Korean (his mother tongue): Well it's not like I cheated on her or anything and nothing really happen.

Sunz: Well you did get dominate by your “childhood friend”.

Jihu: Why did you say “childhood friend” like that?

Sunz: It's funny! I guess? But seriously you need to ask your Grandpa more about this problem.

Jihu: I don’t think I should. There must be a reason why he didn’t want to tell me the truth or what he said was the truth.

Sunz: Grown-ups lied to kids because they know that we won’t understand what was going on. But as we grow the more eager they are wanting to tell us the truth.

Jihu: But what if I poke my nose into something I shouldn’t… and and what if you suddenly get involved, get disqualified from the tournament and I am forbidden from talking to you.

Jihu's voice getting a bit louder: Can’t You Think Of The Consequence!

Sunz just stands there not saying at all. Jihu then realizes that he just screams at Sunz and tries to fix his mistake “ Sunz, I didn’t mean to scream at you like tha…”

As Jihu tries to finish his sentence Sunz rush at him and gives him a hug. Then Sunz said, “ How are you feeling now angry, frustrated, guilty…”

Jihu is confused: What are you saying?

Sunz cancels the hug, takes a step back, and explains: What you did was overthinking. Something that you at 6 years old couldn’t experience. And I ask you to find the answer not to benefit yourself but also for her (Point at the bathroom where Grace is in right now).

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Jihu: But why? Why take a 50/50 chance to get an unknown answer that can lead to other problems?

Sunz: Because problem means answer. This tournament is my problem and winning it is my only answer, and through this tournament, I found other problems that I can poke my nose in. And what about you, to me you look like you have no problem to solve so I’m here to give you one.

Jihu sighs: Now I understand why “Class Rep” hate you so much. For some reason, you can twist people's emotions to make them hate you. But fine then I’ll truth you this time, and I can’t guarantee that I’m allowed to tell you anything.

Sunz: Don’t worry! Once I win this tournament I’ll know it too.

Jihu: I guess I must go now. So good luck with your training.

Sunz: Yeah don’t worry.

Jihu leaves the room, closes the door, and leaves Sunz back inside. Then after a minute Grace creak opens the bathroom and see that Sunz is the only person left in the room. So she ask him “Did Jihu leave?” Sunz answer “Yeah! He gone. Can I talk with you for a bit?”

Grace is hesitant about Sunz’s request, but she still accepts it. She gets out of the bathroom, sit on the side of the bed, and said to Sunz “What do you want to talk about?”

Sunz: I would like to inform you that Jihu already had a girlfriend so don’t get too intimate with him like last night.

Grace gives Sunz a cheeky smile and said: What if I get intimate with you instead? Is it ok with you?

Sunz is confused: Huh? Wait I thought you liked Jihu? From your action and facial expression last night. You were so happy when you two finally get to talk again.

Grace lower one of her shirt shoulders to tease Sunz: Like what you see!

Sunz: Your trick won’t work on me. I have my own preference. Now can you stop trying to seduce me and answer my question, please?

Grace gets off the bed, and goes to her closet to pick some clothes while talking “Of course I like Jihu! He is friendly, reliable, and when we make up last night. I feel happy that I finally get to talk with my old friend again.” Then she goes back to the bathroom with the clothes she chooses. Then she asks Sunz “Can you stand with your back facing the wall outside the bathroom? So it easier to talk.” Sunz obliges “Fine… but no matter what you put on it won’t affect me. Maybe I’m getting ahead of myself and you’re just getting ready after this conversation is over.”

Grace lets out a small laugh only she can hear. While putting on her clothes she continue to talk “Did you really think that I like Jihu just because we are childhood friend. And that we will fall in love just like the manga you read”. Sunz answers “Well it kinda playout like in the manga. You two know each other at a young age, after many years you meet again, and one of you intentionally gets drunk with the hope that the other person might make a move. And… I just describe the plot of some hentai and not manga. Great…!”

Grace still putting on her new clothes “Now that you know Jihu is not my love interest. I would like to know some information about you. If you don’t mind sharing.”

Sunz: Sure! What would you like to know?

Grace: What makes you want to join the clan?

Sunz: To escape living a normal life.

Grace: When did your journey start?

Sunz: To be honest I could have started this journey way sooner but my talent was wasted. Until recently a chain of events that happen and it reignite my talent.

Grace chuckled: But if you did start way sooner that means we wouldn’t meet each other. So I say you started at the right time.

Sunz: Why are you still so adamant about doing this? You and I are both strangers that had only interacted with each other twice!

Grace: Because I want to, sometimes girls don’t even know why they like their guys. Is that what you don’t understand?

Sunz: I just don’t understand that a girl like me. That is what I find strange, because back in school no girl like me, and now you a girl who is older than me is trying to get intimate with me which makes me so confused.

Grace: That just means I’m lucky that no girl sees you like I do. And here I thought that you might have the same taste like all boys, but after my teasing fail I guess you might be into this type of girl.

Sunz: Then what do you think my type is?

Grace walks out of the bathroom with her new attire “I think you are more into a girl that is fully clothes.”

Now standing in front of Sunz is Grace in formal attire covered from head to toe, no boobwindow, no cleavage show. She just wearing a formal suit.

Sunz: My brain is very confused right now.

Grace chuckled: What is there to be confused, I’m being straightforward. I figure that you don’t like girls flaunting their body then that means, you preferred a well-dressed girl.

Sunz: You’re right I like a well-dressed girl over a sexy one. I’m confused because… Let’s get this out of the way first, you’re looking very stunning right now but because you dress up in order to seduce me is what makes me confused. It is the combination of she looks good but she dresses like that to seduce me. So do I like her because of how she dresses or is my brain being biased because I know she is trying to seduce me?

Grace tries to hold in her laugh: Do boys always overthink like you? I thought boy's mind is very simple big tits and revealing clothes is the perfect woman.

Sunz: Most boys are exactly what you describe, but some of us built our preference from media like anime, manga, or webtoons. It does sound creepy and weird but we know what we want when it comes to finding love. So sometimes our standard is pretty low.
