Desire

I woke up a little early that day.

I was filled with the feeling that I still didn't want to go, but I couldn't deny that Acacia had to come. Ajin presses his sleepy eyes into his hands and climbs out of bed. At 6: 00 a.m., Ajin looks at the whirling analog clock and walks away.

“.. on a boat party. ”

Open the door of the refrigerator and take out the cold water and drink it in a huddle. He shakes his head, his thirsty neck.

“You're full of minutes. ”

I honestly thought so. Although I was born in a decent house, it is far from a ‘party’ concept. A yacht party. It's supposed to be a luxury movie. Azine swallowed nutritional supplements, including vitamins, with water. After the end of the beta service, I was able to get my life cycle back to normal, but I was eating a moderate amount of nutrition every day because I was eating poorly raw food.

Until today, Azin had gathered information about the boat party. Boarding parties targeted at the best players were not covert. Notices were posted on the website itself and were already covered by Masscom. The article suggests that some journalists will also attend the party to interview the best players.

I didn't want to go anymore.

‘It's obvious. ’

It's not obvious, it's obvious. Ajin boils ramen with an annoying face. After a while, you'll be dining on a luxurious cruise, but all you have to eat is ramen. Azin ate ramen with chopsticks in place without moving the pot onto the dining table.

"Why are you doing such a useless thing..."

All I could think about was the rough stuff. If you have something to say, you should come and do it yourself. You came all this way like you had nothing to do with it, and I don't see why not this time. Ajin kicks his tongue small, reminiscent of Acacia. He puts the pot in water and takes off his clothes.

I washed my body, dried my hair. It was yesterday that I called Jina to attend the party. Jina only replied that someone would pick her up at 8: 00 a.m. Azin, who opened the wardrobe, thought for a moment about what to wear. He didn't have a tuxedo to wear to the party. However, I wore a suit that I hardly ever wore because I thought I'd have to match the color. When was the last time I wore it? Azin, who was filling up the buttons on his shirt, laughed deeply.

It was when my family died.

When I finished preparing, the time was a little over 7: 30. Ajin sat on the couch and asked for a cigarette. He looks up at the ceiling dumbfounded and smokes silently. Boat parties, boating parties... complicated in my head. Sunglasses. Should I take them? He glances at the sunglasses next to him. Exposed to Masscom and to other best players. His face, the villain's face. Azin frowns. I didn't want to go either.

‘.. I wonder if something will happen...’

I didn't think anything dangerous would happen at the party right away. He has clearly become the successor of Acacia, and there is also a black and white aroma at the party. It's your body. You'll bleed to death from a single stab, but you're both outside of the Human.I can protect you.

But the problem is then. What if your exposure to Masscom reveals your identity? If you reveal your identity. Azin scratches his head. After all, there is nothing to gain.

We still have to go. Rejection is useless against the transcendent. If Azin hadn't locked his door and gone out, Acacia would have invaded his house as usual and captured him and thrown him to the party.

Ding-dong.

Time passes while I'm lost in thought. It was 8 o'clock, and immediately the doorbell rang. Azin hesitates for a moment and eventually takes a deep breath and raises his body. He walks up to the door wearing the suit he left out.

“Who are you?”

“I'm here to pick you up. ”

It was a line that was missed. Azin hesitates for a moment and opens the door. Outside the open door was a man with a surprisingly ordinary impression. He looks at Azin and lowers his head with a light smile.

“Did you sleep well? ”

He takes a step back to ask for Azin. He nodded roughly. Locking the door, Ajin looks at the man.

“.. are we going straight? ”

“Yes, it took me a while to get there. ”

Then I heard it was a sailing party. I couldn't hear where it was. The sea, ramen... around here? No, it can't be. First Beta players have recruited players from all over the world. Twenty of the best players will also have different nationalities, but the majority of South Korea's oceans can't be a party venue.

‘.. overseas? ’

Probably would But even if we leave right now, if we could get to the airport, get on a plane, get there, and then move on, it would take us a while. Even if the plane is faster than before... and the date of the party is today. It was clear.

“.. where are we going? ”

“Let's just get in the car. ”

The man replied with a smile to Azin's question. Ajin narrows his eyes inside the sunglasses and stares at the man's face. But when I stared, I couldn't hear the answer. In the end, Azin clammed his mouth and turned around and headed for the elevator.

The elevator went down to the underground parking lot. Are you going to drive to the airport first?

The elevator stops. The man steps down first, and Azin follows him down.

“Are you going to the airport? ”

“I'm going to the party. ”

The man smiled and replied. The man didn't answer the question as though he was circling around answering it. Azin paused for a moment. Isn't it foolish to follow without a doubt?

“.. who the hell are you?”

“Acacia.”

The man opens his mouth. He looks back at his pain, not stopping to walk. Azin looks at his smiling face and shuts up.

“I've come into contact with him. There's no need to doubt. ”

He chews through his lower lip. After speaking directly about Acacia, Azin could not continue to suspect him. He frowns and pokes his hand in his pocket. The man who was crossing the parking lot stopped. He opens the door of the parked black Mercedes.

“Hop in.”

There's no denying it. Azin goes inside the door that the man opened and sits down. It's been a long time since I drove a car. Azin takes a deep breath and looks inside the car. I didn't see anything special in the spacious car. A man sat in the driver's seat.

“Aren't you tired? ”

The car is starting. Azin looked up and stared at the man's smile, looking at him in the rear mirror.

“.. not so much. ”

“It's going to take some time. He's sleeping. ”

With that, the car left. At the same time, he felt his vision distorted at the same time. When he put his hands on his forehead.

He was already asleep.

“Get up."

Phew. A light gesture strikes his cheek. It seemed to hit lightly, but Azin's head twitched. Azin, who was asleep without knowing the world, opened his eyes in surprise. He jumps up and touches his frowny cheek.

“What, what? ”

His burning cheeks were puffy, and his mouth was sore. Azin, who was embarrassed, looked around and became stiff.

“Good night. ”

The scent of Raw Snow sat on the bed and watched the pain. Azin had never seen a black snowflake like this before. She twists and holds her long black hair up as a jeweled splendid monk, and wears a long chifao with black dragons and red flowers embroidered on it. Ajin opens his mouth dazed, looking at her brow, thicker than usual, and thick red lips, even with light makeup.

“... what are you looking at? You disrespectful bastard. ”

The scent of Raw Snow slightly lifted its eyes, raising its hands. The hand that shook like it was being beaten immediately did not fly to Ajin. She gently gestures and sweeps her cheeks down.

“Well, it's been a long time. I forgive you.”

“.. not for a long time. ”

Azin glances at the fancy bracelet on her wrist. It smells of raw snow that I like to wear simple chifaos that are easy to move around, so the glamorous look did not adapt very well. He dug deep and glanced at the hems of the thighs that looked unfinished, and the bust that looked split open, like a wide white. There's no way he couldn't have felt that look. The smell of Raw Snow frowned.

“Stop looking, stop! ”

“.. why are you doing that? ”

Azin tilts his head and asks. I felt a distorted look of raw snow. She gets up from her seat and waves her hand at Azin. Baaak! With a dull echo, Ajin's head rests on the bed.

“Nu, someone thinks they're doing this because they like it! It's just a party. It's just a force job.”

“.. you look great together. ”

Azin grumbles, touching his back head. He frowned. She lowered her raised fist into a crooked position and grabbed my chest for no reason. She looks away, hugging her white shoulder.

“.. not really. ”

The scent of Raw Snow mutters, touching the side of his head. Azin, who was staring at him for a moment, finds an earring that sparkles in her ear. Earrings on bracelets? You're ready for the party. I wanted to say something about him, but it seemed obvious that I would get hit one more time if I didn't have to.

“.. but where am I? ”

I thought about him late. Azin looks around with a puzzled face. His place was a splendid room. Luxury furniture that looks expensive at first glance is decorated, and I can't tell what a bed is, but it has very soft bedspread.

“A ship.”

The scent of Raw Snow glanced out the window and said. Ajin's gaze was naturally directed toward you. Azin, who was blinking and looking out, stood up and approached the window.

“.. that's impossible. ”

One night, the dark sea was flowing. Azin is stunned. He puts his hands on his forehead. Get in the car... and then what happened? You fell asleep so soon? No, it's medicine. But the memory of eating something... Azin grimaces and grimaces firmly on his forehead.

“Did you have a good trip? ”

The voice of laughter approaches. Azin turns his head. The door closes with Acacia in a blue dress leaning against her.

“Forgive me if I offend you. This was the fastest way to get players from all over the world in one place. ”

Acacia said with a big smile. She tugs at the edge of the long dress and approaches Azin. The black snow that was sitting on the bed creaks and raises his head. She naturally comes to the side of Azin, blocking the way in front of Acacia.

“I'm just trying to get you ready. You don't have to be careful? ”

Acacia smiles brightly, turning her golden hair back. I tried to say Moore with an annoying look on my face. But it was quicker for him to ask.

“... ready for what? ”

“It's a gorgeous party. ”

Acacia opens her arms and smiles brightly.

“Don't you think you need to be a little more aggressive? ”
