It take long for huijin to come back to grab Dylan to take him to see the man of nest.
"nice to meet you, I'm professor Ma dohyeon"
He offered a handshake and Dylan took it he felt this man had real power authority over this place. Well he was that person so respecting him was one point.
"Thank you for bringing him in Ms. park.....I have heard news of your report and the things you done"
Huijin nodded to Dohyeons thankfulness. He smiled but it turned serious because what he heard was surprising. Still he could see why he did it in killing the mantis he would've gotten killed.
Someone with the thought and calmness to take a life without much care. Whether it's to defend themselves or do it because they have to or the need to. Was someone dangerous and had to be wary of.
"Not going to prison am I?"
Dylan joked which huijin eyes blinked seeing how he wasn't nervous of the situation. With her hands behind her back she stood there letting them talk with each other.
"No, No...."
He waved his hands as he chuckled making the tension comfortable.
"....Just that I understand the circumstances when your life is at risk so you won't be punished besides the guy you killed was a serial killer hunting many others like us or humans because of hunger"
Dohyeon's smile went down as he exhaled with how others reacted to this. Some positive and some negative like not killing him but letting him live. Some the opposite still they all thought that Dylan was strong for him to defeat the mantis killer.
So, everyone including himself were curious who he was and in front of him it really lived to his expectation. Dylan's appearance still retained his handsomeness and he didn't show no bug like features on his body.
(Probably something small he is hiding?....no antennas like huijin but maybe his legs?)
He wondered but who knows maybe Dylan was to shy to show so he didn't bother to budge him of his insect feature.
"You'll already have many eyes on you.....well you already have and since you're strong to take that mantis killer out....have you thought of going back to being human?"
He was already curious about him since huijin mentioned he was fine with living still in society while having being half insect. Dohyeon wanted that raw reaction in front of him for him to see. Especially if he adds the fact he can help Dylan become truly human.
"Sometimes...."
"Sometimes?"
A bit surprised as his response.
"I mean no one can see it"
"Is it that small that it wouldn't affect you much?"
"Mhm"
Dohyeon blinked and huijin still thought he was to calm and unbothered.
"Well how about this even though whatever your hiding as a water bug is small maybe this is something you would like"
Dohyeon with a controller in hand started a video on his big TV. Showing a bug head being turn into a beautiful girl right back. As she celebrated with a graduation uniform and roses in hand. As she had drank some liquid of sort to turn back to normal.
"What you saw was a valedictorian who graduated from her classes with outstanding remarks .....after they become the best of the best they are awarded the Cinderella serum something that my team had made and takes a long time to produce because of resources so it's low on supply.....only those striving for valedictorians can get....but of course there are other ways it just take time"
As he continued to explain more in depth.
"As you can see the serum we use the principals behind the function of jungle juice...separating the insect DNA from the body which makes anybody go back to normal"
"Color me impressed"
"You don't seem like you want it?"
"Eh? Don't get me wrong sure it sucks with the whole having to be part insect but it's cool that we are like superhumans in a way.....still I got people to go to back home"
"Wow...."
Dohyeon was taken aback at his response unbothered to change back. Even huijin was shocked again seeing how he didn't seem to care with a live presentation and promise from Dohyeon himself.
"It's the first someone ever felt that way here....well many stay here and live their life as many grow accustomed to who they're and actually just let themselves be like that"
Mentioning some people that don't care of changing enjoying their supernatural powers and abilities.
"You wouldn't stop me if I left?"
It may seem like a curious question but the hidden threat beneath that was caught by both of them. Making huijin feel danger coming from him instinctively she got into a battle stance. While Dohyeon felt this young man was really someone who wouldn't take kindly of being put into situations like that.
"No if you like you can always come back here if you think you were discovered and can't live in society anymore as huijin here can help you guide you back to this place but you can have the code given by her to enter when you want to"
"Thats fine"
Dylan like this situation better and he turned his back to them.
"Ms. Park you can escort the young man now"
"Yes professor"
They left the building to return to the outside.
"You truly don't want to stay?"
"Nah just living out there is fine but I wouldn't mind coming time to time back here to enjoy the place"
"Mmm...that's fine"
As they walked together sure many others looked at him he was handsome and one thing they noticed he didn't seem to show any bug like features. Some girls even were captivated by him still some looked on jealousy slightly since he didn't seem as affected as many of them are.
"Well then I'll have you head out and go by your day"
"Thank you"
"It's my job"
She shook her head a smile appearing on her face.
"You know you really shine brightly with the smile"
"Huh...?"
Huijin blinked at his innocent compliment making her blush. As they arrived at the hidden gate.
"Well have a nice day"
She pulled the front edge of her cap downwards slightly hiding her face.
"You too"
He walked on the walkways which Huijin tilted her head confused to why he didn't want to wait for the bus. Her blush already left her face.
"You don't want to wait for the bus?"
"Nah I don't mind walking a bit it's fine"
"....if you say so"
She didn't pry any further rand left.
(How strong is he?....But one thing for sure he doesn't seem to be that bad of a person)
It wasn't the end of their interaction.
*****************************
So....some of you might be dissatisfied with MC not going to the school route but look I didn't really feel like it should be followed like the plot. Sure it may pretty much take away from how the plot should follow and that suchan had joined that doesn't mean our MC won't stop interacting with the other characters.
sooooo yeah.....
Nah Ima do my way
