The Love That Remains

"Bae Ri Na, I like you . "

The most popular boy of the academy confesses to her under the cherry tree .

"I like someone else . "

Bae Ri Na speaks the words without hesitation .

"Oh . " The boy bends his head down, looking depressed . "May I know who he is?"

Bae Ri Na looks at him . He is handsome . His face can make any girl"s heart skip a beat . He can probably send b.u.t.terflies flying in all the girls" stomach in the academy . He is also from a good family . He knows how to play the violin . There is nothing to dislike about him . The problem is that Bae Ri Na"s heart doesn"t throb for this person .

"It"s a cat," Bae Ri Na answers him with a clear voice . "I am not interested in men . "

The boy blinks his eyes . He is not able to process her words for several minutes . The most beautiful girl of the academy, sixteen years old Bae Ri Na, is interested in cats only .

Not men . Only cats .

"Cat?" He asks again to confirm .

"Yes . " Bae Ri Na crosses her arms . "Are you done? Go away . "

The poor boy walks away with heavy feet . His pride has been thrashed by this girl .

"Awesome!" Sung Soo Han comes out from the hiding . "You like a cat . Are you into b.e.s.t.i.a.lity? I wonder how Aunty w.a.n.g would react to this news . "

"If you tell her, I will beat the c.r.a.p out of you . " Bae Ri Na threatens him . "Or I will tell Aunty Fang how you sneaked away to h.e.l.l to bully demons when you visited your grandfather in China . "

"As always, we agree to keep our secrets" Sung Soo Han sits on the bench beside her . "Are you really into cats?"

"I am not into cats . " Bae Ri Na leans backward . "I am into a certain cat . "

"Who?" Sung Soo Han is always interested in gossip . "Tell me . Maybe I can help you with the cat . "

"It"s a cat who can turn into a man . " Bae Ri Na brings out the white handkerchief from her pocket . It reminds her of the man with silver hair and mismatched eyes . "I wonder who he is . "

"I can help you find out . " Sung Soo Han smiles at her .

"What do you want in return?" Bae Ri Na is not a fool .

"Introduce me to Ami Ong . " Sung Soo Han likes his cousin . She understands him the best .

"Do you need an introduction?" Bae Ri Na sighs . "Who doesn"t know the Sung brothers?"

The nine demon brothers can turn the entire academy upside down . Their reputation is not exactly good . The nine brothers have nine charms in their personalities . Each one can frustrate anyone in their own way . People usually avoid them because they love their little peace of mind .

"Introduce me . " Sung Soo Han lets out an exasperated sigh . "If you introduce me, I will have a reason to talk to her . You have an image of a good girl in the academy . I need your recommendation . "

" . . . " Bae Ri Na wonders if she is recommending him for a job .

"I will help you with your love life," Sung Soo Han tells her . "You help me with mine . I really like Ami Ong . She is really cute . "

"Her family specializes in demon exorcism . "

"That"s why I like her more . "

"You are seeking death . "

"I can"t die . I am an immortal . "

"I don"t want your help in finding him . " Bae Ri Na looks at him . "I want something else . "

"What is it then?" Sung Soo Han is curious . "If it is riskier, then you have to help me get a date with Ami Ong . "

"It"s not impossible to get her to date you . " Bae Ri Na smirks at him . "But, promise me . You will do whatever I want you to . "

"I will . " Sung Soo Han promises without a second thought . Anything for his love, Ami Ong .

Bae Ri Na leans in and whispers, "Help me become an immortal . "

That man hates mortals . So, she must become an immortal first .

Sung Soo Han"s hands tremble . He shouts at her, "Are you out of your mind?"

"It will take too long to reach the queen rank . " Bae Ri Na knows that her uncle and aunt will never agree to send her to h.e.l.l . If she reaches the Queen rank level 9, then she will get the spell to open the gate of h.e.l.l as a challenger . Even her parents have not reached that rank yet . It will take a long time before she reaches the Queen rank level 9 . She can"t wait that long .

"Father will kill me if I do that . " Sung Soo Han shakes in fear . "Mother will throw me in the den of beasts if I do that . I don"t know which is the worst . "

"You have been to h.e.l.l . " Bae Ri Na glares at him . "Won"t they do the same if they find out that you go there without their permission?"

"I don"t go as a challenger," Sung Soo Han explains to her . "I am a demon . They will never harm me . The h.e.l.l is in a bad place . It is total chaos . The demon lords have been restored, but they are having trouble executing their powers . There is no order among the demons . They kill the challengers mercilessly . It"s been more than sixteen years since Father have merged the circles of h.e.l.l . The demon lords are having trouble reorganizing that place . "

"You can"t open the gate for me?" Bae Ri Na asks quietly .

"To be a challenger, you or your sponsor has to open the gate . " Sung Soo Han sighs heavily . "Just cultivate diligently and get the spell . n.o.body will stop you once you get the queen rank . "

"Alright . " Bae Ri Na gives him a nod . There is a long pause before she says, "You can give me the spell or tell me where I can find it though . "

Sung Soo Han slaps his forehead . He gives up finally . She will find that spell in one way or another .

"I will tell you if you let me come with you . "

"Sure . " Bae Ri Na grins . "I need a bodyguard . "

"I will ask Soo Hwan and Seong Min to come with us . " Sung Soo Han knows that his parents will kill him for this . "We will take a quick trip to make you an immortal . "

"A superfast trip"

"You uses spiritual energy . You can"t use the spell that I use . " Sung Soo Han"s voice is so low that Bae Ri Na has to lean closer to him to hear the words . "I am sure that the spell for spiritual energy users is in the father"s study . "

Bae Ri Na furrows her brows . "How do you know?"

"He has opened the gate of h.e.l.l once . It should be there . " Sung Soo Han continues . "There is a strong barrier outside his study room to keep me and my brothers away . He only lets NMi inside the study . "

"We can ask Na Mi to copy the spell . " Bae Ri Na is quite close to Little Na Mi . "She will do it for me . "

"Do you really think that?" Sung Soo Han can"t help but laugh . His little sister is just like his father . Unreadable . Unpredictable . All the brothers cannot win against her . Even Mother is quite helpless when it comes to her . She wins everyone"s heart with her adorable tactics, but she is only loyal to one person - his father . "Bae Ri Na, she will sell you to father the moment she finds out the plan . You won"t even know how you are slaughtered . "

"Right . " Bae Ri Na shrugs her shoulders . "I forgot how she is . She is quite scary . "

"Scariest among all of us, only second to Father . " Sung Soo Han gets a s.h.i.+ver down his spine . "You have to sneak inside his study when you come for a sleepover . "

"I will come tonight . " The risk is high, but all is fair in love and war .
