Descent Of The Demon Master [EN]: Chapter 1091

A few minutes earlier.

“Unnie, let me reapply your mascara here.”

“Don’t move, Eun-sol! Drive a little smoother! It’s shaking!”

Han Eun-sol, with the saddest eyes in the world, gently lifted her foot from the accelerator.

‘I’m not a magician…

How am I supposed to make a moving car not shake? This isn’t something even Schumacher [Michael Schumacher, a famous Formula One driver] could do, let alone Han Eun-sol.

It’s excessive to ask a human to fix the shaking that even the world’s leading car companies can’t fix despite investing astronomical amounts of money.

But Han Eun-sol didn’t utter a single complaint.

Slightly.

Han Eun-sol looked up at the rearview mirror, and Choi Yeon-ha’s terrifying gaze entered her eyes.

“That director bastard, I’m going to kill him for sure!”

Han Eun-sol lowered her eyes without a word.

That’s how it is.

Originally, today was a day off. But yesterday, the film from the CF shoot was lost, so they had to urgently reschedule the shoot for today.

Choi Yeon-ha is a tyrant on set, but she doesn’t overturn the shoot itself.

She knows the difference between what she can get away with and what she can’t.

Those who can’t distinguish that can’t survive in this industry.

Even though there are personality trash who show up late to shoots or act like kings on set, they are praised if they are popular. But those who cancel shoots and do as they please are kicked out of the industry.

Choi Yeon-ha was thorough about that part.

Choi Yeon-ha, who continued that hellish shoot in China, has never once canceled a shoot. Even when she didn’t know the schedule, she would wait in the van for 24 hours, and even though she would curse, she wouldn’t leave the set.

Work and emotions are separate.

So, there’s no choice.

Like a rapper from an audition program, she went to the set and filmed while spitting out curses like a machine gun without rest.

But…

“Change the concept? It’s their fault the film was lost, but instead of just reshooting what was lost, they’re changing the concept? I’ll change their damn concept!”

“Unnie, please don’t talk!”

“Ah, Eun-sol, drive a little smoother!”

Han Eun-sol gripped the steering wheel with a resigned look.

This is why people need to be educated.

Why don’t they think that ‘drive smoothly’ and ‘we’re late, so hurry up’ contradict each other?

And…

I can understand everything.

But there was only one thing I couldn’t understand.

“Um, can I ask you just one thing?”

“What!”

Is that a yes or a no?

“Why did you ask if you’re not going to say anything? Are you picking a fight?”

“No, it’s not that…”

Han Eun-sol sighed and opened her mouth.

“You’re putting on makeup right now, right?”

“Please call it makeup.”

“What’s the difference?”

“The feeling?”

“…Ah, okay.”

Han Eun-sol decided not to argue any further.

“But we’re moving from the set right now. So, it seems like the makeup is already done, but why do you have to redo your makeup in this chaos?”

“Eun-sol, this won’t do. How can a manager say such a thing?”

“Yes?”

Before Choi Yeon-ha could open her mouth, the stylist shouted.

“It’s obvious that the makeup done on set is different from the makeup you do normally. What would people say if they saw the overdone makeup you have on for the lights?”

“…They’d say I have makeup on.”

“Oh, my…”

Han Eun-sol realized that a single glare could make a person more miserable than a hundred curses. Han Eun-sol, who was completely intimidated by the look of contempt and annoyance, shrank back.

“What you see on screen is different from what you see in real life!”

“If someone with a face like Unnie’s walks around with full makeup, people will say that Choi Yeon-ha’s beauty is all makeup!”

“Like you’re not wearing any makeup! A face that looks like you’re wearing makeup even though you’re not! Natural makeup that makes people say, ‘Ah, she looks like that even without makeup!’ Don’t you know that?”

Ah, so she’s trying to look like she’s not wearing makeup.

No makeup?

“…Then why don’t you just not wear any?”

“What are you saying?”

“She’s gone crazy.”

Choi Yeon-ha, who had been listening to the conversation quietly, slowly opened her mouth.

“Eun-sol.”

“Yes, Unnie.”

“Can’t you just do what you’re supposed to do? Listening to you makes me so frustrated that I want to blow you up too.”

“…I’m sorry.”

Han Eun-sol shut her mouth, intimidated by the murderous intent in her voice.

“And you guys.”

“Yes, Unnie!”

“Focus.”

“We’re doing our best, Unnie!”

“Your makeup looks amazing today! Amazing!”

Choi Yeon-ha looked at her face in the mirror with a terrifying gaze.

“It looks a little too dark?”

“It’s nighttime, Unnie. I took into account that it’s a little dark. It’ll look even better outside.”

Choi Yeon-ha turned the mirror this way and that, checking her face.

“A little more on the eyebrows.”

“Unnie, if we do more, it’ll be too much.”

“Trust us. You have to trust us. You know our skills.”

“Ummm.”

Choi Yeon-ha frowned once and then nodded.

“Okay.”

“I’ll just add a little more touch. To make you look more vibrant!”

“Okay.”

Han Eun-sol stared blankly ahead.

‘We speak the same language…

I can’t understand what they’re saying at all. I thought I had a pretty good understanding of things as a celebrity manager, but it seems I only scratched the surface.

“We’re almost there.”

“Unnie, they said we’re almost there. I’ll finish up!”

“I want to touch up my hair one more time…”

“No, no. If you touch it here, it’ll be too much. Let’s go natural, natural. Like someone who just got off work from the company. No need to overdo it.”

Isn’t it already overdone?

But Han Eun-sol kept her mouth shut. It’s also important not to speak in order to live. She knew from experience that it would be hard to hear anything good if she said anything at this timing.

“But aren’t we going too early?”

“Why?”

“No, I mean, we should wait a little…”

“If we wait too long, will it be cooked?”

“…Right. Then we shouldn’t.”

No, that rice doesn’t seem like it’ll ever cook, so is there really a need to do this?

I don’t know anymore.

‘Oh well, I just have to do what I’m told.’

From the start, there’s no place for Han Eun-sol in this huge flow(?). Right now, he’s just a driver.

“If that director hadn’t dragged out the shoot, we would have finished perfectly.”

You don’t look like you’re lacking anything right now, Unnie.

Please, just do it moderately, please!

Han Eun-sol saw a familiar pizza place.

“We’re here.”

“Pull over in front.”

“Are you going in right away?”

“Wait with the car and come when I text.”

“…Yes, yes.”

Han Eun-sol parked the car in front of the pizza place without complaint.

“I’m going!”

“Unnie, fighting!”

“Kill them! Completely!”

Choi Yeon-ha took a deep breath and put on a confident, smiling face. Then, she pressed the button to open the car door.

“Unnie, naturally! As naturally as possible!”

“Shoulders back!”

Clatter.

As the door closed again, Han Eun-sol slowly drove the car out of the front of the store. In the rearview mirror, she could see Choi Yeon-ha entering the pizza place.

‘What is this, really?’

Even though I’m participating, the absurdity doesn’t go away.

“It’ll go well, right?”

“It’ll go well. Of course, it’ll go well. Honestly, our Unnie doesn’t even need makeup. She can just go in and lift her head, and they won’t be able to say anything. If she’s prepared like this, she can just kill them.”

Han Eun-sol listened to the two of them and quietly opened her mouth.

“Um, but…”

“Yes?”

“What?”

Why are these people so uncooperative today?

“Um, do you two know what Unnie is doing right now?”

“She’s going to meet her boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend, right?”

Han Eun-sol’s eyes shook.

How do you guys know that?

“Wh, who told you that?”

“Unnie told us?”

Ah, okay.

You should just do an advertisement instead.

If you put an ad on the front page of the newspaper saying, ‘Choi Yeon-ha is dating Kang Jin-ho,’ it wouldn’t take three days for the whole nation to know. Why are you going through all this trouble?

“You knew that and you still made such a fuss?”

“You knew and you’re saying it’s a fuss?”

“Then you’re saying this isn’t something to make a fuss about?”

Sharp eyes poured into the driver’s seat. Han Eun-sol couldn’t say anything and closed her mouth.

“Ah, no, it just seems a bit excessive.”

“That’s why you don’t have a girlfriend.”

“And you never will.”

Please stop with the fact bombs.

A single fact bomb can kill a solo.

The stylist glared and said,

“Do you know what’s most important to a woman?”

“Of course, there’s no way I would know.”

Whatever I say, you’re going to say it’s wrong.

“It’s pride.”

Ah, I should have said that.

I thought of that.

“This is a matter of pride. How dare they sneak their hand onto someone else’s table?”

“We have to crush them. We have to crush them completely.”

“We have to make sure they can’t even talk again. There’s a code of conduct for people.”

Han Eun-sol shook her head.

I don’t know anymore, really.

“Oh? You. Were. Here?”

Awkward.

It was the most awkward thing to say in the world.

Joo Young-gi’s face flushed red in an instant.

‘Ah, at least act well!’

How can someone who makes a living from acting be so bad?

I saw a review last time that said her acting was so good it was overflowing! What is this terrible acting?

But maybe whether she acts well or not doesn’t matter at all.

The moment Choi Yeon-ha enters, all eyes in the store are focused on Choi Yeon-ha.

It was a truly amazing sight.

This is a pizza place. So, even while people are eating, many people open the door and come in and out of the store. It’s not a place where you would bother to turn your head to see who came in from behind.

But it’s different.

The moment Choi Yeon-ha opens the door and enters, people’s eyes are fixed on Choi Yeon-ha as if they had been rehearsed.

It’s incredibly strange.

‘Is this that, what, aura or something?’

Click-clack.

Choi Yeon-ha slowly walks to the counter.

By now, some people will have recognized that she is Choi Yeon-ha. But no one opened their mouth and just stared blankly at Choi Yeon-ha.

Choi Yeon-ha, who came to the counter and saw Joo Young-gi, smiled brightly.

And in the meantime, she’s really…

Damn pretty.

Joo Young-gi had seen Choi Yeon-ha in person several times, but today’s Choi Yeon-ha felt like she was in a different class. It was like her face was shining so brightly that it was blinding.

If I hadn’t felt a sharp gaze from behind, I wouldn’t have been able to come to my senses.

“How have you been?”

How have you been?

Joo Young-gi unconsciously checked behind Choi Yeon-ha.

It seems like there are about nine fox tails wagging behind her. At this point, she’s not a monster, she’s a great monster, a great monster.

“Wh, what brings you here?”

“Oh, come on.”

Choi Yeon-ha smiles brightly again.

“Why would I come to a pizza place? I came to buy pizza.”

“…Ah, yes. I see. Pizza. Yes, pizza.”

“Yes. I came to buy pizza, but…”

Choi Yeon-ha’s head slowly, very slowly, turns.
