[Chapter 223]
[Miracle (3)]
Fairy Power Year 24.
Noh Eun-ha turned 29 years old, and it had been over 9 years since he founded the clan.
The top clan in the country.
It was a time when people naturally called them that.
Now no one could underestimate Pandora Clan carelessly.
Students graduating from the academy would dream of joining Pandora Clan at least once.
And in March of that year─
"─Hello, seniors! I'm Noh Avenir, joining Pandora Clan from today! I'm really happy to be able to fight alongside you seniors! Please take care of me!"
""""Please take care of us!!""""
Players who graduated from the academy officially joined Pandora Clan.
Among them was Noh Avenir, who had terrible written test scores but achieved outstanding results in practical exams.
Boasting a height of over 190cm, he was the tallest among the clan members.
Most female clan members had to look up at him.
"So you're saying when he gets older, he'll become like Uncle Bruno?"
Kang Si-hyeong muttered to himself, looking at Avenir who was 30cm taller than him.
It was hard to believe that this guardian, who looked innocent and young compared to his size, would transform like Bruno in a few decades.
Others also marveled at Avenir who had grown in the year since his internship last year.
"How tall are you?" "Me? 198cm!!"
""""...."""
About 2m.
It turned out it wasn't a 30cm difference, but a 40cm difference.
Kang Si-hyeong regretted asking needlessly.
Meanwhile, the clan members couldn't hide their surprised looks.
The twins were even more so.
"Unnie, unnie. Then doesn't being 2m tall mean that thing is big too?"
"Oh my, daebak. Later we should check..." "Will you two please shut up and live? How can you say such things in front of new members?" "Ouch! Clan Lord! How can you hit us like this in front of new members?"
"That's right! Don't you see the bumps on our heads? What about your dignity..." "Want me to hit you one more time? Or will you just shut up?" "Zip our lips." "Me too. But little sister, doesn't that zip sound like a rabbit..." "You mean Si-hyeong sounds like squeak squeak? Oh my, how naughty." "Why are those things picking on me when I'm just standing still?" "Those things really..."
Eun-ha sighed.
Although they had come to be known as the best clan in Korea, the twins' consciousness still hadn't changed.
And it wasn't just them.
The clan was teeming with clan members like the twin sisters and Jin Pa-rang.
"Hey! You just insulted me, didn't you!?" "That hyung has good intuition."
Jin Pa-rang shouted from somewhere.
Eun-ha ignored Jin Pa-rang's shout and approached the new clan members.
They stood at attention.
Perhaps because they had just joined the clan, their discipline was well established.
Even Avenir was now distinguishing between public and private matters, unlike before.
Eun-ha saw them tensed up and smiled slightly.
"You've all joined well. From now on, you'll be rolling under seniors and advisors in charge of education for 3 months. After that training ends, you'll be assigned to places that need you according to your specialties. So don't be lazy and work hard." """"Yes, we understand!!""""
This year, 15 new members including Avenir joined Pandora Clan.
Also, 5 players transferred from other clans to Pandora Clan.
A total of 20 people joined.
They were scheduled to be sent to parties that needed them after a certain period passed.
Among them, 5 people with poor grades will probably be sent to Uijeongbu.
Even while all citizens were working hard to create a new world, the development of northern Gyeonggi Province didn't stop.
Pandora Clan also had a certain stake in the development of northern Gyeonggi.
In a few years, when Uijeongbu is fully opened to citizens, the third clan headquarters was planned to be built there.
As a result, there was a shortage of clan members to work in northern Gyeonggi.
So Pandora Clan was thinking of sending some of the new members to Uijeongbu.
That would continue every year.
Of course, Avenir was an exception.
"And Avenir."
"Oh, hyung! I mean, Clan Lord."
"You know you have overtime work after your assigned duties end, right?"
"Yes, work me hard!"
""""...."""
While clan members clicked their tongues.
Avenir grinned.
Exceptionally, Avenir had a predetermined duty.
He was Im Baek-yeon's bodyguard.
"Don't forget to spar with me after work ends. I'll personally check if you can really protect Baek-yeon."
A dealer called
Eun-ha, who knew Avenir's talent and skills well, thought he was suitable as Im Baek-yeon's bodyguard.
When he was attending the academy, he was called the second me, wasn't he?
That's not entirely wrong.
The leading representative of the next golden generation.
Eun-ha recalled the modifiers that came with Avenir and smiled slightly.
Pandora Clan's future was very bright.
The best clan in Korea.
That signboard won't go anywhere for the next ten years.
☆
The education of new members began.
Technical Advisor Bruno and Magic Advisor Shin Seo-young taught them harshly.
"Get up. No matter how hard it is, how can you cancel casting in the middle of casting magic? Once you've drawn mana out of your body, you should say something even if you lose consciousness."
Unlike when she was an academy instructor, Magic Advisor Shin Seo-young was scary.
She worked the clan members to death as she had promised Eun-ha.
Sometimes even Eun-ha shook his head seeing her education.
"Dad, is Seo-young noona angry?"
"She's not angry. It's proof she's working hard."
"Seo-young noona is scary..."
This day was unusually relaxed.
So Eun-ha took Noh Yu-seong, who was whining he was bored, to show him the new members training.
He regretted showing him.
The sight of new members rolling around didn't seem good for Noh Yu-seong's education.
Especially, Noh Yu-seong seemed shocked to see Shin Seo-young, who used to dote on him, with a cold face.
"But Yu-seong, Seo-young noona? Didn't you used to call her teacher..."
"Seo-young noona said to call her Seo-young noona!"
"That noona... She tells even me to call her noona and how can she..." What did you just say? "..."
Eun-ha shut his mouth tightly.
Wind was blowing in the training ground.
She, who was skilled at controlling wind, couldn't have not heard his and Noh Yu-seong's words.
Eun-ha flinched.
Far away, Shin Seo-young was glaring at him with a smiling face.
And Noh Yu-seong, who knew nothing, was waving at her as if nothing had happened.
"Let's stop disturbing Seo-young noona's work and leave. Come on, say bye-bye."
"Seo-young noona, bye-bye."
Eun-ha decided to leave the training ground.
Noh Yu-seong greeted her.
Shin Seo-young, who heard the greeting even from far away, sent wind.
Yes, Yu-seong bye-bye too.
There was no greeting for Noh Eun-ha.
She seemed to be upset.
To this, Eun-ha put his hands together in apology and left the training ground.
He was thinking of taking Noh Yu-seong for a walk outside when.
"Ah, Pandora Clan Lord. Hello. Hello Yu-seong too?"
"Ah, Eun-ha oppa. Yu-seong is here too?"
"Hello noonas!"
They met Im Baek-yeon and Precise Memory.
It seemed to be the day Im Baek-yeon received education from Precise Memory.
Eun-ha greeted the two.
Especially, Noh Yu-seong really liked Precise Memory.
"I missed you noona!"
"Oh my, really? Thank you."
"Yu-seong, what about me? Are you only going to say that to PM unnie?"
"You too noona!"
Noh Yu-seong suddenly clings to Precise Memory's leg.
Then she just laughs, and Im Baek-yeon gets jealous.
It was a rare sight.
Eun-ha smiled slightly.
"How is it? My son is cute, right?"
"Yes, he's cute. I usually don't like children, but strangely I'm drawn to this child."
Precise Memory smiles.
Then she patted Noh Yu-seong's head with her hand wearing long gloves.
Noh Yu-seong entrusted his head to her touch, enjoying it for some reason.
"By the way, time really flies. It feels like it hasn't been long since I met Pandora Clan Lord when he was in elementary school at Deoksugung... Now he's suddenly grown up and even has children. Not just one or two, but three."
"Haha, that's right."
As Precise Memory said.
The flow of time was really fast.
Almost 20 years had passed since then.
Yet this person doesn't seem to have changed at all.
Eun-ha thought.
By now, traces of time's passage would show on the faces of people he met back then.
But Precise Memory was just as she was when Eun-ha first met her.
It's as if she's living in a different time, detached from the flow of time.
No, it felt like time had stopped for her alone.
It was right then.
Wait.
A thought that suddenly flashed through his mind.
Eun-ha focused on that thought.
"
"Hmm... For targets without mana, I can stop time almost indefinitely. For living beings, the duration of the effect would differ depending on the target's mana resistance ability."
"..." "Why do you ask?" "Do you have time now?"
"I do have Baek-yeon's education but..."
"Is it urgent? If so, I don't mind. Oppa, go ahead with your business."
"Thanks, Baek-yeon."
Something he wanted to try came to mind.
Eun-ha asked Im Baek-yeon for permission, and immediately gathered the holders of the
Maybe we can fix Yu-jeong's eyes.
Eun-ha's expectations swelled.
On his way, he called Shin Seo-young who was training new members, Iriya who was praying, and Noh Eun-ah who was about to go on a date after a long time.
☆
The reason Lee Yu-jeong couldn't see in this life was entirely due to the price of using the
Eun-ha wanted to find a way for her to open her eyes somehow.
So he asked Iriya, who was skilled in healing abilities, and also asked Eun-ah, who had the same gift, to treat Lee Yu-jeong.
But the results were unsatisfactory.
'I don't understand why there are formulas that can be seen in nature in the Third Angel's eyes. Just reading and following the structure of the formulas is overwhelming. It's not something I can handle alone.'
'That's right. If we look at the formulas one by one, there's nothing we can't solve even if it's a natural formula. But it's hard for me and Riya unnie to solve that vast formula. And the structure of the formula changes the moment we perceive it, there's no way we can do anything about this.'
The two couldn't solve the magic engraved in Lee Yu-jeong's eyes.
Even with Cha Eun-woo and Yeo U-bi joining, they couldn't achieve much.
The two were overwhelmed by the amount of formulas to the point of suffering overload.
In the end, the conclusion he reached was─
─To see, understand, and read the formulas in Yu-jeong's eyes for a long time, only people with the
That was it.
In that sense, this was also why Eun-ha proposed to Shin Seo-young to become a magic advisor.
Of course, Shin Seo-young became a magic advisor and examined Lee Yu-jeong's eyes at Eun-ha's request.
'If we could just fix the formula that changes structure the moment we perceive it, I think we could somehow solve it...'
Shin Seo-young evaluated like that.
The other two agreed.
They had come somewhat closer to a way to make Lee Yu-jeong open her eyes.
But they couldn't progress beyond that.
How can we stop formulas that exist in nature?
Is that possible?
It was impossible by Eun-ha's common sense.
The three were saying so too, and inwardly judged it impossible.
Something that seemed possible only in dreams.
And Lee Yu-jeong couldn't have not noticed their hesitation.
'Thank you, but I'm fine.'
Opening her eyes is impossible.
Lee Yu-jeong had grown up hearing such words since childhood.
As a result, she was resigned on one hand and intimidated by people's attempts to fix her eyes on the other.
She, who keenly grasped the atmosphere, ended the topic with a lonely smile.
The best way to not get hurt emotionally was to not do things that could get you hurt.
After that day, Lee Yu-jeong was reluctant to attempt treating her eyes, and Eun-ha couldn't rashly step forward.
As a result, Eun-ha's attempts often fizzled out.
But this time will be different.
We can fix Lee Yu-jeong's eyes.
Eun-ha could be confident.
Theoretically, nothing should be impossible.
"So... You'll manifest your myth to minimize the area where the world's will can interfere?"
"That's right."
Lee Yu-jeong, Iriya, Noh Eun-ah, Shin Seo-young.
And Precise Memory, Im Baek-yeon.
Eun-ha called them to his office and explained his plan.
Shin Seo-young was at a loss for words after hearing Eun-ha's explanation.
She also racked her brains.
"It shouldn't be impossible." "Yes, that's what I think too."
"It might be worth trying?"
"I think it's possible?"
Soon Shin Seo-young, Iriya, Noh Eun-ah, and Precise Memory fell into thought.
They were drawn to the plan Eun-ha proposed impromptu.
By receiving a myth from Baek Seo-jin, my myth has now become untouchable by anyone limited to this country.
So even the world's will won't be able to properly prevent fixing Yu-jeong's eyes in my world.
The plan was simple.
First, Eun-ha manifests his myth.
Precise Memory stops time for the formulas in Lee Yu-jeong's eyes.
And Iriya, Noh Eun-ah, and Shin Seo-young solve her formulas.
"""It seems good?"""
The three who initially showed awkward looks spoke in unison.
The plan was established.
Now they just needed Lee Yu-jeong's permission.
"If you manifest your myth... Won't it strain your body, Eun-ha? I can just live like this..."
"It's not straining. Don't worry, nothing will happen if I just manifest it and stay still." "...Really? You're not lying..." "I won't, don't worry."
Eun-ha held Lee Yu-jeong's hand tightly.
He was actually lying.
Just manifesting a myth gives quite a considerable burden.
Even more so if the myth's rank is high.
Nevertheless, Eun-ha declared not to worry out of consideration for Lee Yu-jeong.
"Hmm..."
"And Yu-jeong, you once said you wanted to see Yu-rin's face, didn't you?" "..."
"I'd like you to be able to see our daughter's face."
What if it fails again, what if she gets hurt by that?
Lee Yu-jeong seemed to be pondering.
Eun-ha persuaded her.
She who wouldn't be swayed by any persuasion changed her mind as soon as her daughter's name came up.
"Please. Please help me."
In the end, Lee Yu-jeong bowed her head.
People smiled warmly.
They all hoped Lee Yu-jeong could open her eyes and see the beautiful world.
Myth Manifestation
Revival
Thus, the plan to make Lee Yu-jeong open her eyes began.
Eun-ha manifested his myth with the clan headquarters as his domain.
Time Anchorage
Precise Memory activated magic on Lee Yu-jeong's eyes.
Magic that fixes the state of time.
Her magic succeeded.
The natural formulas stopped changing.
"We can do it."
Noh Eun-ah immediately started solving the formulas in her eyes.
Shin Seo-young and Iriya joined in.
The three moved their eyes quickly and worked their hands while sweating.
The formulas are solved one by one.
After a long time─
"─How is it?"
All formulas were solved.
By then, Eun-ha withdrew his myth.
Then he examined Lee Yu-jeong's eyes.
"Ah..." """"...."""
A sound that couldn't form words and dropped.
Lee Yu-jeong opened her mouth.
She had her mouth open but couldn't speak.
Her pupils shook greatly.
Her pupils were sparkling.
Soon she continued speaking with a voice full of moisture.
"I can see, everything..."
""""...!!""""
"So this is what it means to see."
A stream of tears flows down.
Lee Yu-jeong reaches out her hand and carefully places it on Eun-ha's cheek.
"Ah...! Eun-ha?"
"Thank you, thank you so much! Thank you all so much!!"
At that moment, Eun-ha suddenly rushed to Lee Yu-jeong.
Whether Lee Yu-jeong was flustered or not.
Eun-ha hugged her tightly in excitement.
☆
Lee Yu-jeong became able to see.
Hearing the news, clan members abandoned all their work and came to Eun-ha's office to see Lee Yu-jeong.
"What!? Yu-jeong can see!? It's a festival! A banquet! I'll treat big today, so let's drink heavily!" "Wow! Wow! We're drinking dew! Alcohol is the best for happy occasions! But let me see! Yu-jeong Yu-jeong! Can you tell who I am?"
It became a mess.
Clan members crowded to show their faces to Lee Yu-jeong.
"Ahaha..."
Lee Yu-jeong was quite unfamiliar with the faces she was seeing for the first time.
Moreover, Eun-ha wasn't letting her go and was hugging her tightly.
"You're flustering Yu-jeong. Everyone come later. Don't tire Yu-jeong unnecessarily..."
As if not giving her to anyone.
Eun-ha waved his hand while hugging Lee Yu-jeong.
Then clan members booed.
"Really... He seems extremely happy. Well, I'm this happy too, so Eun-ha's heart must be even happier."
Noh Eun-ah laughed seeing that scene.
It was worth working for a long time to solve the formulas.
Although a whole day had passed, she was satisfied that Lee Yu-jeong could see.
"Huh?"
Then she paused.
Noh Eun-ah raised her hand inadvertently.
"..."
Her hand had turned semi-transparent.
No, not just her hand.
Both arms were semi-transparent.
"This is..."
It didn't seem like she was tired.
Noh Eun-ah blinked to check the change that had occurred to her.
At that time, Eun-ha called her.
"Noona! Come here quickly. Yu-jeong wants to see your face."
"Huh? Oh, okay! I'm coming now!"
Noh Eun-ah snapped back to her senses.
By then, her arms had returned to normal.
Since I don't know what happened...
Let's not tell Eun-ha yet.
Yu-jeong is so happy being able to see, I can't worry Eun-ha unnecessarily.
It's probably nothing.
Noh Eun-ah decided to think that way.
She couldn't ruin the joyful time.
