Teacher’s Day Side Story – Teacher Fox ───This is the story of when Jin Cheon-hee first came to the White Scale Medical Pavilion.
“From now on, you may stay here. You don’t need to fold the bedding yourself. I will arrange it for you, but the bedding is basically kept over here.”
A child no bigger than a pebble walked along. If an ordinary child that age walked, their footsteps would be noisy and quick, pattering along. But this child walked slowly, with heavy steps.
“……”
The child’s eyes, far too mature for his age, looked toward the room that would become his bedroom from today onward. Usually, he was quite talkative. Even his vocabulary far surpassed that of an ordinary child.
But at this moment, he was quiet.
‘Is he shy around strangers?’
That was possible. They had not known each other for very long. Besides, he had once turned Yuho blue with rage for discussing his master’s illness recklessly without even having a solution.
It was only natural that the child was still being careful. And then— ‘A strange presence in his soul.’ Yuho had lost most of his strength by now.
It had also been a very long time since anyone had called him a Revered One. If one had to classify him, “the fallen” would be the right expression. It did not matter much in any case.
