I am still behind

Meanwhile.
The Regressor, Yeon Taeseon, was in a bad mood.
As the team leader of Nate Guild’s 2nd team, he was focused on scouting pre-regression talents who would be active in the Constellation War, but he had stopped working and was just staring at the tablet, at the image of the Constellation, that is, Lee Seonbaek.
For two hours, while he was busy as hell.
Even though various positive news articles were coming up, his mood showed no signs of improving.

[Yoon Yul, a Reassessment of the Curse-caster]
[Is the One-man Army a Puppeteer, Not a Necromancer?]
[The Realization of Romance, the Magic Swordsman]
The people Yeon Taeseon had put on his scout list were certainly good people recognized by the Constellation and the Magic Tower Head, and they were reliable people who would become definite milestones or manpower when the Constellation War broke out.
But something was not right.
Yeon Taeseon’s sharp, deep blue eyes turned to Daisy and Yoon Yul beyond the screen.
“Feeling left behind…”
“What are you doing?”
“…”
Yeon Taeseon’s mood soured even more at the sudden voice.
There were only two people who would barge into his private office like this.
Baek Jiye, who only talked about work thoroughly.
And Han Sion, who he sometimes didn’t know why he came.
“Get out.”
“I just stopped by because the Regressor seemed to be in a bad mood.”
Yeon Taeseon and Han Sion had gotten drastically closer since that strange pink gate, to the point where Yeon Taeseon had even revealed that he was a Regressor, but apart from that, the two were rivals.
A relationship where they would offer anything and do anything for their Constellation.
And because of that, a relationship where they naturally compared themselves to each other.
Especially in the case of Yeon Taeseon, who was far behind, he couldn’t help but be uncomfortably conscious of Han Sion.
And even more so because of that unpleasant incident back then.

[I’m the one who’s behind!]
Although he saw the system window that had appeared for a moment and then disappeared, Yeon Taeseon dismissed it as a system error.
“Is there something wrong?”
“…”
“You said we had to prepare for the Constellation War.”
There seemed to be no other intention behind Han Sion’s appearance here other than the reason he had stated.
But Yeon Taeseon couldn’t stand it, just seeing his face reminded him of that time.
‘Damn it.’
The sound of a sticky kiss echoing in the gate.
The anger that he had taken that person before him.
And the disappointment in himself.
And yet, that white woman was so beautiful…
“…”
Yeon Taeseon admitted it.
That he was behind.
And he was still a provisional contractor.
There was no choice but to be a difference between him and the official contractor, Han Sion.
Daisy, who had recently joined, was already friends with Lee Seonbaek, and Yoon Yul, who was already gloomy, had an unusual look in his eyes when he saw Lee Seonbaek.
It was a relief that Lee Seonbaek could forcibly control Yoon Yul, and Daisy didn’t seem to think of her as more than a friend.
But the problem was that the two of them didn’t think so.
“This can’t go on.”
“…”
Han Sion, who was about to ask what was wrong, shut his mouth and quietly turned his back.
It wasn’t that he was ignoring him, but because he saw his own unrequited love in Yeon Taeseon.
So he instantly realized the reason why he was talking to himself and agonizing like that.
Although Han Sion had barely managed a kiss recently, the reality was that he was still far from a confession.
Han Sion was still contemplating how to confess.
His Constellation seemed to already know his heart, though.
The back of the distant Han Sion looked somewhat pitiful.
Not long after Han Sion left, Yeon Taeseon, who had closed his tablet, left his office.
His destination was the vice-guild leader’s office, where Baek Jiye was almost dying from overwork.
Creak.
“Documents on the right. Other business on the left. Form documents on the left back. No personal contact. If you’ve come in by mistake, turn around and leave.”
“Baek Jiye.”
“No personal contact. If you’ve come in by mistake, turn around and leave.”
Baek Jiye, who was spewing words like an answering machine as soon as the door opened, had a rather haggard complexion.
On the sofa next to her, Cheon Sanho, who had been working with her the whole time, was sleeping as if he had fainted.
‘The two of them get along well…’
Cheon Sanho’s love seemed to be cruising along very well.
Even if he was floating in a sea of work.
Yeon Taeseon cleanly ignored Baek Jiye’s automatic response.
“Vice-Guild Leader.”
“What is it?”
“First, let me say this, can you not get angry if I make a move on your Constellation?”
In an instant, a black crack appeared on Baek Jiye’s fountain pen, tablet, and some of the documents, as if they were breaking.
It was a mana-cracking phenomenon due to a sudden agitation.
At some point, Cheon Sanho also opened his eyes wide and was looking at Yeon Taeseon.
“…Do you feel a sense of crisis now?”
Baek Jiye took off her work glasses and pressed her temples.
It’s a problem when your Constellation is too capable.
Men are flocking to her.
But apart from that, Baek Jiye did not stop their advances or courtship.
No, she rather welcomed it.
Because our Constellation has low self-esteem and needed such beings.
“Yes. I feel like this can’t go on.”
“Then what favor are you asking for. Love consulting?”
“Love is something you can do after you’ve decided to date.”
“You’re saying the same thing as Sion.”
Baek Jiye picked up her tablet again.
She often scolded and disciplined her Constellation, but she also knew Lee Seonbaek well.
It’s not that Lee Seonbaek has no interest in love.
It’s just that the threshold is high.
As far as I know, only Han Sion and Yeon Taeseon could cross that threshold.
Daisy, who had recently joined, was out of the question because she really didn’t think of him as more than a friend, and the same went for Yoon Yul.
Woong-
An address of a certain place was sent to Yeon Taeseon’s phone.
It was somewhere on the Cheonggyecheon Hunter Street.
“What is this place?”
“A place to doll you up.”
Yeon Taeseon’s appearance was good.
No, it was more than good, it was excessive.
It was a natural thing for gazes to gather just by walking by with that face.
A large man with dark, sharp eyebrows and a well-defined face, with black hair.
Baek Jiye had no talent for praising people’s faces, so she evaluated him objectively, and even objectively, this excessively handsome guy’s problem was that he didn’t think of dolling himself up with that face.
His fashion sense was good, but that was it.
He was a prime example of what it means to get by in life with just your face.
“The Constellation-nim should be out of the association by now and preparing for the after-party, so hurry up and go.”
“What…”
“Ah, get a full makeover and go and flirt.”
For the record, the address sent to Yeon Taeseon was the place where Lee Seonbaek had had her clothes tailored and had a light makeup done before.
The owner of that place was very fond of romance, so if she had a word with her, she would roll up her sleeves and step up.
“Fl…”
“Flirt.”
“Me?”
“Then why did you come?”
Baek Jiye used her telekinesis to kick Yeon Taeseon out of the vice-guild leader’s office.
“Hurry up and go and get a ring or something!”
KWANG!
The door of the vice-guild leader’s office closed.
Mercilessly, before the dazed Yeon Taeseon’s eyes.

“Why am I the only A-rank?”
“Do you remember you were a C-rank until recently?”
“I don’t want to! I want to be S-rank too! S-rank!”
“You’re going to be screened later, Seoah. Lee Won is crying.”
Leading Seoah, who was lying on the floor like a child, we went to a beef restaurant that we had reserved as a group.
It was a normal beef restaurant that used expensive and good meat, but it wasn’t private, and the interior wasn’t particularly stylish.

“Omakase? A restaurant…? It’s all a bit burdensome…”
“Huk! I wanted to go to a place like that! But I’m happier eating beef with ssam.”
“…Burdensome…”
It was the result of all three of them refusing when I suggested going to an omakase or an expensive restaurant.
In the end, we decided on a normal restaurant near the guild.
“Can I order the tenderloin?”
“What else would you order?”
“Yay! 10 servings of tenderloin, please!”
Seoah was the first to order excitedly.
The owner, who seemed nervous because the hotshots had come, was initially stiff, but as we ordered only the expensive cuts, his attitude gradually became more affable.
“Daisy, can I have the doenjang jjigae?”
“Huh? Seonibaek, what’s that?”
“Curious? Then let’s eat it together.”
For the record, I also ate.
‘A Constellation’s body doesn’t need to eat, but apart from that, I have a sense of taste.’
The taste of Korea, which I was having for the first time in a long time, was something that touched my heart…
As I was eating with such a good appetite, I was becoming a high school girl of an age where she could even chew on a passing stone.
Tinkle.
The door of the shop opened.
‘What is it? We rented the whole place today.’
As I was thinking that and looking at the entrance, I couldn’t help but open my mouth and drop a chopstick.
The three people who were wolfing down the meat looked at the entrance at my reaction and showed the same reaction.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Yeon.
Yeon Taeseon…
No, it was because something more than a living Pygmalion was walking in.
