Your Girlfriend Was Amazing

Chapter 28: Is This Guy Out of His Mind?

Is This Guy Out of His Mind?

"Alright, let me briefly explain about the practical exam tomorrow. You'll be entering an F-rank gate, but don't let your guard down just because it's a lower rank"

Instructor Kim Sukgu's words evaporated into thin air. With the plan centered on team formation, gate entry, and monster annihilation, there was hardly any reason for me to lend an attentive ear.

At this point, I need to identify the girls orbiting Kim Minsoo.

At a quick glance, it seems like there's no girl in Class A associated with Minsoo, aside from Yoomin. But even if there are no visible connections, I can't rule out the potential of an abrupt girlfriend induction, and this is a matter best discerned through a careful scrutiny of appearances.

The face is the key. To seamlessly blend into the protagonist's entourage, one must possess a beauty that stands out.

Sorry to the others, but if I were to rank based on the looks here

Among the guys, I stand tall at the number one spot, with Kim Minsoo as my second-in-command. Among the ladies, Yoomin reigns supreme with overwhelming grace. The rest, well, they fall into the realm of mediocrity, lacking any noteworthy characteristics. In simpler terms, among the girls in Class A requiring vigilant monitoring, Yoomin stands alone, and she's already comfortably under my thumb.

Minsoo, you sly dog, is this the hidden agenda behind your secret romance?

I originally pegged him as a gullible guy, only to realize he's actually a genius in the art of relationships. If I were to crack open that thick skull of his, might I witness a casanova twirling across the dance floor?

The perks of his secret dating are more than a handful. Firstly, Minsoo is officially single, making him fair game for any girl's advances. Then, his unwitting charm offensive, fueled by his just and kind demeanor, ensures that he unconsciously plants relationship flags left and right. The result? He becomes the belle of the ball among the ladies. Given his indecisiveness, the count of potential heroines is bound to rise.

Is the novel losing popularity?

Perhaps the author's decision to dish out a pure love saga for approximately 170 chapters, coupled with the critiques of a sluggish pace, led to a sudden narrative pivot. The cause for this unexpected deviation piques my curiosity, but it's irrelevant now.

"Student Baek Taeyang, so you might need to temporarily transfer to another class considering what happened yesterday. Is that okay?"

"Huh? Yes?" I belatedly snap back to reality, still grappling with the abrupt subject of changing classes.

Why is suddenly the topic of transferring to another class coming up?The most uptodat𝓮 n𝒐vels are published on n0velbjn((.))com

"Given your emotional turmoil from yesterday, I get it. Allow me to elaborate once more."

Instructor Kim emphasized the importance of bolstering a class with comparatively low overall power, even within the parameters of an F-rank gate. My passive skill, effortlessly halting department store monsters, would function as an exceptional safety measure.

"I will do it."

"Yeah, thanks to that, I feel a bit less worried."

I was casually wondering if there were any aesthetically pleasing specimens in another class worth checking out. But without any valid pretext, entering another class just to scrutinize each face is a rather audacious move.

Now a good opportunity has presented itself.

While I can't eliminate every pesky variable, a bit of confirmation is in order. Since the moment I learned about the quest's difficulty level, any notions of taking it lightly have been promptly discarded.

"Well, then, Minsoo and Taeyang, join me after school."

Why Minsoo? Could it be that he's also joining for support? Talk about a stroke of luck. It's an excellent chance to witness his flag-planting techniques in action.

"Got it."

"Understood!"

It conveniently aligns with my post-school agenda. I know exactly what needs to be done.

Meeting with Minsoo.

Deciphering this bastard's romantic entanglements is a matter of utmost importance. As soon as class ends, I have to rush to him and dig into his relationships with girls.

"Alright, then, today's class ends here. See you at the gate emergence area tomorrow."

"Yes!!"

The instant Instructor Kim Sukgu made his exit, I rose from my seat. Yoomin, as per my instructions, was diligently ignoring Minsoo.

"Minsoo!" I called out, assuming a guy who just faced rejection from his girlfriend wouldn't wander far. Yet, silence greeted my efforts.

Surveying the class, Minsoo was nowhere in sight. I had called him right after class, but he managed to vanish even faster than that?

"Where on earth did that guy scamper off to?"

Finding him is an absolute necessity.

++++++++++++

Minsoo sensed that something was amiss these days. One month into sustaining the love connection with Yoomin, he felt the thread unraveling. The catalyst was Baek Taeyang's words. He thought that if not for that guy, things could have been on the right track now, but everything was a mess.

In the end PureDiaryAuthor was right

Reflecting on the extensive question and answer from yesterday, Minsoo's head nodded involuntarily.

This marks SweetStudent's 2315th post.

Lately, communication with my girlfriend hasn't been going well

Honestly, I used to think it was partly my fault. But isn't it too much for communication to be this scarce?

I've made considerable efforts to reconcile. Just in case, I even folded paper cranes and wrote a handwritten letter. Of course, I didn't deliver it, but isn't that a lot of effort?

We used to be happy just seeing each other's faces, but these days

It hurts my heart.

A new student came to our class, and since the day the dog arrived, nothing seems to be going right

I don't want to blame the dog, but isn't this too coincidental?

I wrote this post because communication isn't going well. PureDiaryAuthor has always been helpful in matters of love. Naturally, this time, too, they should be able to provide a clear answer. Last time it wasn't helpful, but Yoomin, who didn't reply, was also at fault.

Response to [Girlfriend Troubles] PureDiaryAuthor [Solar]

Well, perhaps it's too complicated now If the relationship has become this difficult

Maybe it's okay to glance at someone else for a moment

I'm not saying you should break up, but if you have a lot on your mind I feel like there's someone around you who likes you for sure.

Honestly (laughs), just reading your post makes me think you have a high level of attractiveness.

Taking a short break from your current partner to confirm each other's preciousness might be a good idea, or something like that.

Getting advice from an older person might also be a good way? A woman slightly older might be just right

If you know an older woman, a noona, around you, have a serious discussion with her.

That's really smart. There were times when I wondered if it could be someone around me.

In essence, the reply suggested that, rather than a man's response, an older woman's response would be more effective.

"So, what's on your mind?"

"Instructor Ryu I apologize for taking up your time."

"Well, when it's just us, loosen up a bit. You're way too formal."

Minsoo jumped up right after reading the reply to his post. As soon as the class wrapped up and the instructor left, he practically bolted out of there.

Seeing noona again puts me at ease.

Without looking back, he headed towards the counseling room where Instructor Ryu Hyemi works.

At Victory Academy, instructors only display their main roles on their nameplates without distinguishing dual positions. In this case, Instructor Ryu Hyemi serves as the head of the research department and concurrently works in counseling.

"It's been a while, noona. I was genuinely surprised when I first saw you on the first day."

"Same here. First time since we were kids, but your face hasn't changed a bit."

"You too"

Minsoo's eyes wandered around. Ryu Hyemi looked like a whole different person from their younger days. Her face had gotten even prettier, and she had morphed into a well-toned, balanced figure. There was a nostalgic feeling in Minsoo as he noticed her brown, permed hair.

"So, what's got you sprinting in here? Look at that sweat."

Hyemi retrieved a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped Minsoo's forehead. The scent from the handkerchief and her natural fragrance teased his nostrils. Unaware, Minsoo spoke, "Actually, I have a girlfriend"

"What?"

"Yeah, I got myself a girlfriend We're in a secret relationship, but lately, things have been tough, so"

"Go on, keep talking."

What am I hearing right now? Did he forget our promise? Hyemi became perplexed.

Did he forget the promise that we're going to get married once we both complete character education and become awakened, capable of fulfilling our duties?

Then again, Hyemi figured Minsoo might still be in the not-yet-grown-up phase, which could explain his involvement in a relationship. She firmly believed that Minsoo wouldn't forget the promise. Of course, she had lived her life keeping a distance from men to strictly adhere to the commitment.

He's still a kid. They say men are different

Hyemi could grasp that, but it still left her a bit disappointed.

"She's in the same class; her name's Yoomin We've only held hands so far"

Minsoo was oblivious to the fact that Hyemi's expression was rapidly changing. He was just delighted to have someone in front of him who would listen to his story.

"Uh Yeah, so?"

"But ever since this guy named Baek Taeyang transferred, things have been really weird in our relationship"

"Baek Taeyang?"

"Yeah So, what happened is"

Engrossed in their conversation, Kim Minsoo and Ryu Hyemi were oblivious to someone eavesdropping on them from the periphery.

++++++++++++++++

Is this guy out of his mind?

I maximized my senses and followed Kim Minsoo. When he headed to the counseling room, I thought there might be some story behind it, but it turned out to be nothing at all.

I'm gonna give him a good beating after school.

The protagonist is a nutjob, seeking relationship advice while clasping hands with his counselor.

I can kill him, right?

It's a serious contemplation.
