I just finished reading Solo Levelling and I really enjoyed the small sparks of romance between Jinwoo and Hae-in, there is the LITTLEST amount of fanfictions on them on every site possible, I've checked here, Wattpad, ao3, quotev, I just genuinely couldn't find a good amount of books. So, I'm creating one myself. This chapter has a little inspiration from Arise - A Solo Levelling Collection by Laura-Chan
Two of the top-ranked hunters, Cha Hae-in and Sung Jinwoo were lying in bed, Jinwoo's head resting atop the girls' breasts, comfortable. Hae-in had woken up moments before the sound of her phone buzzing on the nightstand beside her. She did NOT want to move in case of waking up her lover beside her, "Ngn~" She groaned, rubbing her eyes to the piercing light that infiltrated her apartment, yes she got plenty of messages. Still, she had never gotten such an amount that her phone would not stop buzzing for over five minutes.
Sore from the pleasurable night before, the only female S-Rank hunter in South Korea reached her arm out to grab her phone, she thought to herself, "How can this man not wake up to this irritating sound?" She opened her phone and immediately wanted to throw it out of the window.
Breaking News!
Hunter Cha Hae-in of the Hunter Guild and Sung Jinwoo of the Ah-jin Guild are confirmed to be in a relationship!
Last night, the two were spotted kissing outside Hunter Cha Hae-in's apartment! Although they tried to keep it sneaky with the hood and the hat, it did not break through the paparazzi's perseverance to catch a good story!
She mentally sighed, too tired to audibly sigh, and turned her phone on do not disturb mode, setting it to the side after putting on an alarm for 9:00 AM. Jinwoo's arms slid around her and pulled her closer to him and she melted under his touch despite him being fast asleep. Hell, his body pressed against hers made her feel slightly aroused. She rested her head on his, took in his delicious scent, and then proceeded to sleep for another two hours.
They both awoke to the sound of her alarm at 9.
"Turn it off." He groaned into her breasts, "Please?" He added, not affecting the outcome whatsoever because he knew that Cha Hae-in did not like to be late for work.
"Jinwoo, we need to get up." She smiled softly at the boy in her arms. He sighed and then got up, not ashamed of his nude appearance. Just how did she take all of that? She started limping behind him to the bathroom and they both entered the shower together. It wasn't like this wasn't a normal thing. When he wasn't traveling the world to clear dungeons he equally divided his free time with her and his family.
Once they had entered the steamy shower, he wrapped his arms around her waist, burrowing his head into her neck and leaving small marks, "Mhmm~" She softly moaned, slightly tilting her head back at the sudden pleasure, "I have to be at the Hunters guild in an hour, and there's traffic which will take at least half an hour to get through." She said.
He immediately retaliated, "We can take Kaisel and be there in under 5." Jinwoo wanted to spend the most time he possibly could with her. His hand slowly slid down her body, gently caressing each individual part of her smooth skin. She bit her lip, "Under 5 minutes." She firmly said, "I have to be there before 10." He nodded and she could feel his small smirk in her neck. Truth be told, she wanted him, and badly at that, she just didn't want to tell him because of his big ego.
40 minutes passed and the two were out of the shower fully dressed and satisfied, it was only then that she remembered what she saw when she woke up earlier in the day. She quickly opened her phone and was met with unseen messages from many different people.
(6:32) Sung Jin-ah: You and my brother are pretty intimate hmm Hae-in could sense the smirk coming behind that message.
(7:20) Choi Jong-in: Your publicity has caused quite a commotion in the PR team. Don't forget that we are clearing a high-level A-rank dungeon at 10:30 AM today.
(7:30) Woo Jinchul: The Hunter Association is extremely sorry for the lack of control over the situation, it seems that taking things down is not stopping the spread of the information. Please be careful from now on in your relationship with Hunter Sung Jinwoo. Before I forget to mention, congratulations on said relationship!
She couldn't be asked to read the rest of the messages that were sent and she showed the article to Jinwoo, "Hm? I guess I was too immersed in your lips to notice anyone's presence at the time," The girl blushed at the sudden affection and handed him a cup of coffee as she turned on the TV. They still had around ten minutes before they needed to leave for the Hunters Guild.
The moment she turned on the TV a video of the two passionately kissing, him taking off her jacket aggressively and them entering her apartment with her legs around his waist was shown which immediately embarrassed Hae-in.
"How long have our top S-Rank hunters been in a relationship for? From this video taken by a fan, it seems to be a while!"
She switched the channel and despite switching it to the International channel, the same video was being shown, "How popular are we?!" She exclaimed, her face bright red from the non-stop embarrassment. She was hungover, sore in many parts of her body, and extremely embarrassed, this morning was just NOT her morning. She checked the time and looked over at her boyfriend, "We should go now, you said under 5 minutes right?"
Once they were outside he summoned Kaisel, "I bet you we could make it in under 3."
Everyone immediately recognized the wyvern in the air as Sung Jinwoo's since he was seen to regularly use it but many of the Hunter's Guild were confused as to why he was at their guild.
Hae-in jumped off of Kaisel when Jinwoo went closer to the ground, and then he followed behind her, causing gasps from the public around Seoul and the hunters of the Hunter Guild. People immediately began taking photos of the occurrence and Hae-in went to the front desk, "He's with me, you can also put him on the list of who can come into the guild whenever." She said, trying to act confident despite knowing that everyone around them knew what had happened the night before.
They both went to the top floor of the building where Choi Jong-in was and entered the guild master room, "It seems the both of you have unwillingly made a big announcement huh," He said, looking up from his paperwork, and then standing up and putting on his armor, "Hunter Jinwoo, will you be joining the raid today? If you are then I could send much fewer people on it, though because it is the Hunters Guild gate, we will be taking everything from the dungeon." He said, smirking slightly.
"I'll be there but I won't participate, I just want to see how the Hunters Guild clears dungeons." He responded with a laid-back attitude, everyone knew that he could solo-clear dungeons, it wasn't news to anyone who didn't live under a rock. Then again, that wasn't the reason he was going on the raid with them, he just wanted to spend more time with Hae-in.
Hae-in glanced out of the window and noticed hoards of reporters outside wanting a scoop of their relationship, she let out a short sigh at that.
"Should we do a press conference?" Hae-in said absentmindedly, "It would probably get rid of the swarms of reporters."
"I don't mind, anything you want Hae-in," Jinwoo replied, scrolling on his phone at what seemed to be the newspapers of the two's relationship.
"Can we quickly hold one before the raid?" They still had half an hour left before they were supposed to start the raid. The guild master agreed and they quickly set everything up. Even if they were behind on the dungeon time, Jinwoo agreed to use his summons to mine the mana crystals and carry the monster corpses out so the mining and monster teams would also not fall behind.
"This is a quick press conference but before we begin, Hunter Cha Hae-in and I would like to keep our relationship as private as possible, we were just... uncareful last night. Refrain from asking questions that you wouldn't normally ask a stranger who you know nothing about." The world's top hunter said. This press conference was being recorded live to pretty much the whole world.
"How long have you been in a relationship with Hunter Sung Jinwoo, the world's number one hunter?!" A reporter quickly asked before anyone else could.
"6 months." Hae-in replied, "Marking yesterday, it would be 6 months." She repeated, glancing at Jinwoo with a slight blush tainting her cheeks, yesterday was quite the 6 month anniversary, especially the gift so full of love.
"Did you two have sex yesterday?!" Someone asked loudly, and then hid, confusing people on who asked the abrupt, personal question.
"Refrain from asking questions that are on a personal level," Jinwoo replied, the purple glow appearing in his eyes, showing that he was slightly irritated by the question. Who were they to ask such a personal question?
"Hunter Sung Jinwoo! How do you perceive Hunter Cha Hae-in?" Jinwoo slightly smiled at the question.
"Hunter Cha Hae-in is a strong, independent woman who I'm lucky to be in a relationship with." He held her hand and intertwined their fingers under the table which caused her to blush deeply.
"Hunter Cha-Hae-in! I've heard that you can't stand being around strong hunters because they have a foul smell on your nose! So how is it that you can stand the world's strongest hunter?!"
"I've also wondered that," She said, bashfully smiling, "Jinwoo- I mean, Hunter Sung Jinwoo smells rather nice and is potentially the only hunter in the world that my nose can tolerate, he's different." Everyone was left shocked at her reply, but even more shocked at her personality and smile, not many had the opportunity to see her act like this, in fact, it was so bizarre that some people shuddered.
Jinwoo couldn't help but also have a small blush taint his cheeks but he just looked away and then checked the time, "Well, everyone, it's time for the Hunters Dungeon raid, so thank you for attending this short-notice press conference, and do not try to further your way into our relationship and refrain from taking damaging pictures and ahem videos." He said, referencing the viral video that probably has billions of views now of them about to get intimate.
Well, it was time for the raid, and, if you think about it, Hunter Sung Jinwoo was there, so what could possibly go wrong?
End of Chapter 1. I hope you enjoyed it!
