Genius Warlock-Episode 172
"hmm.… . You're pretty good at it.”
Angel's House. Waiting room and lounge. Miss Coco said.
She was teaching Oliver how to use makeup while wearing casual cotton pants and a white shirt..
"Now that we've applied the basic cream, let's move on to the next step..”
Coco said, holding out a container with the words Tone-Up Cream engraved on it..
Oliver asked, looking at the cream container..
"what is that?”
"It makes your skin brighter and clearer. Although it is a subtle difference, the value of skin is determined by its fineness.."
"What I just applied?”
"This is the groundwork to begin basic work. I asked you to teach me, so I will teach you, but are you going to keep holding back my words? Or are you going to learn by moving your hands??”
Oliver immediately apologized for those words, took the container of cream as Coco instructed, and applied it to the woman in front of him as instructed..
The woman in front of me is an employee of Angel's House, and she became Oliver's practice partner to learn makeup techniques..
A little while ago, I kept raising the corner of my mouth as if something was interesting..
"Apply gently. softly. I didn't learn that women should be treated gently.?”
"This is my first time hearing this story.”
Oliver spoke with sincerity, but for some reason the women around him just giggled..
"Can I ask if everyone is watching this??”
"well? Is this because there is nowhere to go because this is the employees’ lounge and waiting room? I guess it's also because it's amazing..”
"What?”
"A man is seriously learning how to apply makeup while being scolded by a woman... . Apply it properly!”
Coco yelling in a playful voice.
Oliver carefully applied a tone-up cream to the sound of shouting..
Seeing that, the women around them giggled again..
I didn't know how this happened.
It was a natural progression until he accepted Jane's request and decided to take over as her security guard..
But suddenly they tell me to learn security etiquette??
‘Since the place is different, you need to learn the etiquette there. Bodyguards also represent the dignity and status of their employees. I'll teach you quickly in detail..’
To be honest, Oliver didn't really want to go that far, so he thought about refusing..
Now that I know there's an auction, I wonder if there's another way to get in. At that time, Coco made an urgent suggestion..
'If you learn it, it will be useful later. We make a deal. transaction… .. If you want anything else, please let me know. I'll give it to you if I can.’
After thinking about it carefully, Oliver asked me to teach him makeup techniques. He precisely uses camouflage makeup techniques..
In the puppet master Glip's journal, it was said that it was essential for camouflage of the corpse doll, but there was a limit to learning only written letters without practical skills..
So I told her just in case, and to my surprise, Coco readily accepted it. It's a specialty.
"I applied it all.”
Oliver said after applying the tone-up cream. Miss Coco checked and opened her mouth..
"It's great. You're talented. How about going out this way? We need a makeup technician here at the moment..”
"I want to learn camouflage rather than makeup..”
"Makeup and camouflage are all there. It is deceiving the other person by dazzling their eyes..”
"Well, I want to learn more. What should I do next time??”
"I need to apply a cover. Open that wide container... .. Yes, that one. Apply only once. Like this. I'll pick it thinly.."
Talk. Talk. Talk.
Oliver followed Coco's instructions and applied the cosmetics between powder and liquid..
"Are you sick??”
"no.”
The woman I was practicing with smiled and answered..
"Now, it has become white and pretty.?”
"hmm.… . well?”
"I said how should I talk to a woman??”
"you are pretty."
"It's great. Don't laugh. Because I’m scared like a broken doll.”
Women laughing again.
Along with that, Miss Coco also told us the rest of the work..
Pencil and brush to highlight the face by adding makeup to the eyebrows, under the eyes, nose, and forehead..
finish on it.
In addition, a strong color was used to shade the face to add vitality and naturalness, and eyeliner was used to create clear lines around the eyes..
Lastly, I trimmed my eyebrows with an eyelash curler and mascara and applied lipstick over my lips..
It feels like drawing on drawing paper..
"Well, that's great..”
"thank you.”
"These are not empty words. I taught it briefly, but I never thought I would learn it already. Incredible."
That was true. Although he had only learned security work and briefly learned make-up, Oliver had mastered it surprisingly quickly..
At this level, it was possible to make the face of a corpse-like doll look vaguely human..
"As promised, I will teach you taping techniques and how to make a rubber mask later..”
Taping is a technique to change the impression by pulling the skin of the face with tape, and rubber masking is a technique to create a customized mask using special rubber..
In fact, it was said that it was a special makeup technique practiced by members who work as negotiators and spies in Sisterhood, and that even the mother who gave birth was not recognized..
‘Most of the women here don't know the mother who gave birth to them..’
Black humor mixed with self-deprecation.
Anyway, Oliver nodded happily..
"All right. I will come back to learn later. thank you for the great teaching.”
"No, I learned it better than I expected and it was fun for me too. However, I think that even though I learned makeup, I forgot about security. Can you tell me what I taught you??”
"A bodyguard is someone who not only provides security, but also serves as an accessory that enhances the dignity of the employee..”
Oliver told the first thing he learned.
Contrary to what Oliver knew, bodyguards at social gatherings served as accessories that had to enhance the dignity of their employers as much as guards..
It was said that one must dress neatly, protect one's subject tightly wherever one goes, and one must not stand out from one's employer, but one must not be left behind by anyone..
Also, he said that he should not be looked down on by anyone because he represents the power of the employees in this rough city..
“-That's why you said that there are times when security guards fight among themselves..”
"Fortunately, such cases are not common. Unless it leads to a really childish emotional fight. However, it cannot be said that high-ranking people are strangely petty and childish..”
"So he told me to be careful..”
"You remember everything. It's great.… . Well then, shall we try again as we practiced? They think of me as someone to protect.."
As suggested by Coco, Oliver stood behind Coco on the right..
The distance is neither too close nor too far.
Miss Coco walked, and Oliver followed along, maintaining a certain distance as he had been taught. so as not to make any sound.
"When walking, please follow the guard appropriately so as not to put pressure on the person being guarded..”
"understand.”
"First of all, don't open your mouth. Open your mouth only when requested to do so by the person being guarded..”
"understand.”
"When speaking to the person being guarded, please speak in a whisper. Do you remember how to do it??”
Oliver spoke briefly, concisely, and clearly, as he had been taught, with one hand behind his waist and his mouth covered with the other..
"understand."
Jane smiled with satisfaction..
"It's great. Well then, shall we change clothes and get ready to go? There's still some time left, but there's no harm in preparing early..”
Oliver nodded, took off his work clothes, and tried to put on his newly tailored suit..
It was a custom-made suit purchased from an Iranian clothing store that Coco mentioned last time, and as Coco said, it was quite expensive..
That's because it was lined with a special material to create a bulletproof effect, and the main customers were wealthy fixers or mercenary executives who dealt with the city's upper class..
In other words, it meant that Oliver had now reached that level..
"hey.”
Coco immediately looked at Oliver and said. It seemed a bit absurd..
"Why is that? Miss Coco?”
"Why is that so? Don't change here, change there. Even if you want to brag about your exercise, you shouldn't do this..”
Among the women staring, Coco pointed to the locker room..
Oliver looked at that place and thought, ‘Ah… I sighed and went in..
After a while, Oliver came out..
He was wearing a tailored black suit, and although it was not noticeable due to its plain pattern, the color, gloss, and texture of the clothes gave off a luxurious feel, making it perfect as a security uniform..
In fact, the store clerks nearby said, 'Ho... He responded positively by making a sound..
mate- mate-
"Everyone stop working. Day. Because the break is over now. Dave is moving with me now..”
"yes.”
Oliver answered and left with Coco's guidance. As he was leaving, the store women, who had changed back into their work uniforms, smiled brightly and greeted him..
"See you next time.”
"I enjoyed seeing you put on makeup. I think you have talent.”
"If you want to get a job here, come here. I'll tell my mom well..”
Oliver accepted each of their words and came out..
Coco, who was going with me, said.
"All of our kids are kind.?”
"hmm..… . yes.”
"Kukkuk. He tells lies and is kind..”
What Coco said was true.
All of the employees working here were friendly and kind to Oliver, but behind the scenes there was a keen sense of calculation..
"But don't hate it too much. There is no way for a woman to survive in this rough city alone, without any money or background. Only by selling her smile based on her appearance and letting go of her petty hair will she be able to live like a human being at least..”
Coco said with sincerity. As if she included herself in it..
Oliver asked the question after riding in the same vehicle as Coco..
"Is this the same thing??”
“yes? What?”
"Why are you helping Jane like this?.”
Coco was silent for a moment. She wasn't pretending to be worried, she was really thinking..
"hmm..… . yes. Well, that's right. If he does well, we do well too..”
Coco said that Sisterhood was an organization where powerless women gathered together to try to survive, but as it grew in size and gained capital, its inclinations changed from the early days..
"Of course, I don't know if that's a bad thing or a good thing..”
"......."
"As Sisterhood grew, our voice, power, and benefits also increased, but the strong bond we had in the early days was greatly weakened. So even if you want to make new friends, you need gifts..”
It was like that. The reason Jane went out of her way to buy tickets to the auction was not because she was bored..
It was to buy a gift to establish a connection with one of the Sisterhood's big hands..
The big man said that he would lead a group of female asset owners like himself and lead one of Randa's capital markets.,
Naturally, the women in her group also gained benefit and influence..
"As if by God's help, I ended up retiring from the group. If Jane gets in, it will be a huge help.."
"hmm..… . Then I guess I should buy something expensive..”
"It doesn't have to be expensive.”
“is it so?”
"Yes, I'm already rich. The reason he receives gifts is to see the other person's insight or resourcefulness. Do you know how to recognize undervalued items? Or, do you know how to see objects with high potential? Or is it possible to demonstrate ingenuity beyond one's own abilities? Same thing.”
swimming..… . It was more complicated than I thought.
But I had one question.
"But do you really need to hire me? I think it would be more profitable to save the cost of hiring me and buy more products..”
Coco said as if she had been waiting.
"We know that Landa is the greatest city in the world, but at the same time it is a barbaric city ruled by violence.?”
"I didn't know, but now I know.”
“Hmm... . Anyway, it's no different for the upper class. The upper class tries to show off not only their wealth and influence, but also their power through private soldiers called bodyguards. They don't threaten people overtly, but they threaten people more insidiously..”
"It's the same at the auction house.?”
"It's not uncommon, but it happens. I hired Dave just in case. Because we are the strongest and most reliable as far as we know.."
Surprisingly, Coco smiled sincerely..
"That's too much praise..”
"You'd better change that attitude.”
"yes?”
"I'm giving you advice because I know you're helping us out of kindness. Humility is not a virtue in Landa..”
"I don't mean to sound humble, but I'd appreciate your advice..”
Coco changed the subject with an expression that made her look like she was a strange person..
"Anyway, if Jane gets in touch with her, breadcrumbs will fall on those of us who are close to her, so we're rolling up our sleeves and helping.."
"Is that really all there is??”
Coco's expression was momentarily agitated by the lightly asked question. wee.
"Oh my, I hate it. In Randa, such emotional stories can only be told until the age of 16..... . Ah, it's arrived now.."
Jane's driver and bodyguard pulled up in front of a mansion..
Jane was seen wearing a black dress in front of the mansion..
"Oh, are you here??”
