Your Girlfriend Was Amazing

A Single Drop of Concentrate

Melanie is still nowhere to be seen.

When I glanced at the guestbook, Melanie's name was neatly penned there. True to her nature, her disappearing act suggests she's not exactly thrilled about such a gathering.

Well, can't blame her; after all, she hasn't had the pleasure of meeting me yet. Who could blame her for not having a blast without me, the life of the party, in attendance?

I just wanted to hunt her down, park myself next to her, and sweetly dispel her boredom. But of course, I can't just tunnel vision on finding her and neglect the whole point of this gathering.

Kim Minsoo roamed around, trying to find the most charming woman nearby.

Yep, just a bit. To make Melanie jealous. But she won't recognize me with the mask on… It'd better if she's jealous.

If these unsuspecting women had a clue they were eyeing the indomitable Kim Minsoo, they'd be swooning. Two S-class gates under my belt as a student? I'm a big deal. And if they caught wind of my prowess in the social scene, they'd be lining up to fall for me.

In the past, I wouldn't have dared such thoughts, too passive and overthinking everything. All of this was thanks to PureDiaryAuthor's influence.

Have they finally overcome their shyness? Even with this mask, my charisma is unmistakable.

Taking in his surroundings, Kim Minsoo observed that it wasn't merely a handful of women; each and every one of them appeared captivated and their eyes fixated on him as if entranced. They were undoubtedly attempting to read the emotions hidden beneath his mask.

It wasn't gentlemanly to drive away the women who came rolling in, so Minsoo spoke up, "Ladies, I'm always at your service, feel free to strike up a conversation anytime…"

"Are you with the man behind you?"

"Huh?" At the words of a woman who cut through the crowd, Minsoo turned around once.

There stood a man with striking blonde locks and a sun-kissed complexion. His chiseled physique, reminiscent of a bodybuilder, was a rare sight even among the awakened. With his towering height, lean frame, and styled hair, he gave off the unmistakable aura of a foreign hunter.

They aren't looking at me?

It was only then that Kim Minsoo finally registered the gaze of the man behind the mask. Heat rushed to his face. Thank the heavens for the mask; it spared him from potential embarrassment.

Minsoo casually took a couple of steps backward and subtly leaned into the man behind him to appear friendly. He contemplated draping an arm around the man's shoulder but quickly abandoned the idea due to their noticeable height difference.

"Uh, he's…" Minsoo just needed to say they were together, but he felt self-conscious.

I need to answer quickly, or this woman will leave…

At that moment, a voice came naturally from behind—a deep, resonant voice, as if echoing from a cave. "Yes, we are together."

It reminded him of Baek Taeyang, but it had a slightly lower and more dignified vibe than that.

He's Korean?

Minsoo felt a sense of camaraderie with the blond man and found him a bit more familiar. Not only did the man extricate him from a potentially embarrassing situation, but he did it with such finesse.

For a moment, Minsoo pondered his behavior, almost reminiscing about Baek Taeyang.

"Wow, we're a pair too. Would you like to join us for a drink? But if your friend here feels uncomfortable, you can come alone…"

The woman who spoke wasted no time latching onto the blond man, her cleavage-baring shirt and short shorts highlighting her seductive figure as she glued herself to him. ȐàNŏʙÈṣ

Minsoo couldn't help but ogle and swallowed hard. He then spoke, "No need to worry about me, ladies~ I'll join you too."

"Ah… okay…"

Smooth move, Minsoo thought. He mentally thanked PureDiaryAuthor for schooling him in these tactics. From his perspective, it was evident that the woman was impressed as she exchanged glances with her friend and discreetly assessed him. It appeared they were engaged in a silent competition for his focus, each vying for the chance to be with him.

Cheeky little things…

Minsoo lightly nudged the blond man with his elbow and winked.

Who would've thought social gatherings could be this entertaining? I should make a habit of attending.

Determined, Minsoo redirected his focus to their conversation.

"Why don't you join us at our table?"

"I think that'd be great."

"But your friend… Oh, never mind. What should we call you?"

"I'm keeping my name under wraps with the mask on."

"Oh, right, my bad. How about your age then?"

"Twenty-seven."

"Wow, you look so young, oppa! Can I call you oppa? Please?"

"Seems like you already are."

"Oh~ oppa~ count me in too~"

"Feel free to."

Minsoo figured the reason the women were directing their queries at the blond man was pretty obvious.

They must be too timid to approach me directly. When they asked if I had company, they were probably angling to sit with me. Too shy to engage one-on-one, they sought a wingman.

Having once been bashful himself, Kim Minsoo empathized with their plight. This was his cue to take initiative.

He positioned himself between the blond man and the women, his voice smooth and deep as he declared, "I'm twenty, ladies."

"Oh… I see. Okay."

The conversation flowed seamlessly, the banter spot-on. After inwardly apologizing to Melanie, Minsoo resolved to make the most of the moment with these women.

It was just meant to be a warm-up, but they're hanging on my every word. Right now, they're all over the blond man, but soon enough, they'll be fawning over me after a few more exchanges!

"Alright, ladies, why don't we stop loitering around and head to the table? I've reserved a spot. Let's move it. Hehe…"

"Uh, um… what do you think, oppa?"

"Sounds good. Let's sit down and chat."

"If oppa's okay with it, I'm in, hehe…"

"Oppa, me too… Did you know? I actually wanted to talk to you first, but I lost at rock-paper-scissors…"

"Don't believe her lies, oppa~"

"Haha, well then, shall we head to the table for now? Hey, can you lead the way?"

"Sure thing. By the way, what are your pseudonyms? I've decided on Dark Hero for myself. Just call me Hero if you want." Minsoo smirked and silently applauded his cleverness as he led them to the table.

Not many not be impressed by the name Dark Hero.

This nickname came from hours of overthinking and sleepless nights. Minsoo figured he was lucky to have a pseudonym ready for occasions requiring anonymity.

In a mask party, you need a cool pseudonym to stand out.

"Oh… I see… I'm Eugene."

"Yes, and you can call me Minjeong."

"I'll go by Taeok."

"Wow, oppa, even your pseudonym is cool!"

"I thought so too, oppa~"

What, no praise for my pseudonym? Maybe it's too sophisticated for them.

After shrugging off his disappointment, Minsoo grabbed the seat nearest the food.

First come, first served. More food, more power… Taeok, huh? Flashy guy, but he won’t beat my game plan. Time to show who's the king of drinking parties.

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

Exactly 30 minutes after the drinking party began at the table guided by Kim Minsoo.

"But, um… Eugene and Minjeong, how about your sex fantasies?"

"Pardon? What did you say?"

"Did I mishear?"

"No, no, you heard right. Sex fantasies. You know, like fetishes and stuff. We're just having fun, talking about that kind of thing at a drinking party is normal, right?"

Each word uttered by Minsoo froze the air and shattered the mood.

"Mr. Hero, you seem tipsy… How about some fresh air?"

"Uhuk, no way, Taeok. You've been saying that, but you’d be shocked if you knew who I am… Hiks, being with me is a huge honor, you know? Should I tell you? Should I? Hehehe, not gonna tell… Hiks…"

Minsoo was clearly having a blast, entertained by his own identity puzzle. At the table, four people sat, but only one voice filled the air. In a slightly different sense, he was the god of the party.

This is getting out of hand.

I was planning to take him to Melanie and reel him in, but now I had to manage his drunken antics.

I can't let this slide.

Patience only goes so far; this needed intervention.

"Hey."

"Hey? Taeok, did you just ‘hey' me? If you knew who I was, you'd be the most shocked ever, oh dear…"

Time for a lesson.
