Chapter 195 - b 11

170,000 won »

« So we start with numbers now? » Rachel tilted her head to the side.

« It seems like it. » added Suho.

« But why does it feel familiar? » asked Nayun.

« It reminds me of something but I can't seem to remember it… » commented Jonghak.

He didn't remember anything but he wanted to get the girl's attention.

Yoo Yeonha kept her eyes on the screen and chewed her popcorn faster than before. Kim Suho and Rachel looked at her confused with cold sweat on their back.

Hajin was surprised at the unexpected price.

« Price of what though? » Jonghak held his chin in his hand as if he was thinking.

« Maybe if you shut up we could see what is he talking about. » Nayun rolled her eyes at the stupid comment of the male cadet.

He was currently trying to save money and the amount needed from Seoul to Gangwondo wasn't helping.

« Hey, why does he need to go there in the first place? I can recall him saying that his physical stats were low- » said Yoo Yeonha interrupting the scene on the screen.

She was right! What is he doing this time again?

« He wants to hunt. » answered Suho bluntly as if it was obvious.

« And may I know how you know that? » Kim Jonghak narrowed his eyes at him. That's kind of suspicious.

At the question Suho become flustered and began to play with his hands to push away any other thoughts while he explained.

« N-no I don't know what are you trying to say but it's just that we went hunting together there so I assumed that- »

« Stop it, we understand don't worry… » Two sighs could be heard. The first one was Yeonha being exasperated and the second one was Suho out of relief.

He didn't know what to do and suddenly recalled what Kim Soohyuk said about cadets having benefits and showed it to the portal worker.

« Is it going to change anything? » questioned Nayun.

« Yes- well kind of. » responded Yeonha.

I was genuinely surprised at the change of attitude. It seemed being a hero really was one of the best jobs in this world.

« Why does it seem like some scenes are cut out? » Rachel found it weird. Hajin always described everything in the narration but now the actions were too short as if someone tried to shorten the events.

« I feel like some things are missing too. » Suho also noticed a change from their previous reactions. Normally, everything was described and even some tiny details were added to enlighten the situation.

°Sorry-°

« Why are you apologising? »

°I had to shorten some scenes to make the reaction faster. Don't worry though! When I judge that something is important I won't cut off the scene and some chapters won't be affected if I like them. °

« So you judge if we should react to something or not? » Nayun scoffed in disbelief.

« Thank you »

« Yes, have a safe trip, Kim Hajin cadet-nim »

« She quickly changed her attitude huh- » commented Nayun.

« Even the honorifics seem to be remembered. » Sarcasm filled the room. They weren't pleased at the sight of Hajin being disregarded until he showed his cadet card.

With a bitter smile, I walked into the Portal.

« He seems to have taken it personally. » said Yeonha. She too smiled sometimes out of politeness and Hajin surely did it but he was the type to only smile when needed.

« Who wouldn't? » Nayun turned her head to the side out of scandalization. Kim Jonghak frowned at the scene. Yeonha looked at the two with sad eyes, her jealousy towards Nayun was the same as Jonghak's jealousy towards Hajin.

The city was crowded and as lively as he described it in his novel. He was walking down the street and heard a clumsy Korean. He couldn't help but laugh.

« Did he finally lose it? »

« Maybe he actually did. » Nayun and Yeonha were throwing to much sarcasm in the air these past few minutes.

« Shall we call for a doctor then? »

« Sure. »

°Stop with this utter nonsense! °

« Then tell us why is he laughing at such futile things? »

°The answer is ahead do not bother for such trivial matters…°

Kim Jonghak had to applaud the girls for their successful performance. They managed to annoy the voice to the point it spoke and responded while Kim Suho and Rachel were just watching the scene awkwardly…

Korean and English were this world's shared language. It showed the authority and influence the country had. It probably sounded good for Korea but they were one step away from hell.

« Why?? Does he know something about it? »

« He's the author duh- Are you playing stupid or something? » Nayun was at the verge of smacking the boy's head. Some questions are better not asked and his in particular.

The Korea peninsula kept producing Towers and Dungeons. They came up with two explanations but none of them was close to the truth.

« Why are we learning half truths? It's getting annoying! » Yeonha sighed. Did the voice censure the information and that's why its shortening the chapters? Was it filtering?

°I can hear your thoughts if you forgot and I feel offended by your accusations-°

« What did you think about for them to react like that? » Asked Rachel.

« I thought they were filtering information instead of giving us the whole truth about Hajin. »

°You thought wrong! I don't even know the truth myself… How are you expecting me to inform you about something I don't know? °

The room fell silent. Yeah, they sort of had a point.

If it hadn't been for the heroes who turned them into marketable resources, Korea would have been destroyed long ago.

« Such a cruel fate for his own country in another dimension- » Nayun said dramatically. The boy was ruining their fate the longer they read about what's supposed to happen.

The other cadets laughed at the stage happening before their eyes.

The shops looked like they belonged in the Middle Ages operating in modern buildings. I felt like I was in a game world.

« How are we supposed to take that? » blurted out Jonghak. Maybe just maybe this place had a certain effect on them and they were a little bit too open about their thoughts. It may also be due to the fact they won't face the consequences of their actions after the end of this reaction.

« Yeah but I feel like it's more of a compliment than an insult to be honest. »

°Always think positive yeah that's what you should do… °

« Wait- what does that mea- » Nayun got cut off in the middle of her question. It was probably due to bad luck… Yeah absolutely just an unfortunate bad luck…

Chae Nayun's mouth was sealed and while Yoo Yeonha tried her best to hold her laughter with her free hand *cause one of her hands is occupied with a buckle of popcorn*, Kim Jonghak was glaring at the voice *if that's even possible* with Rachel and Kim Suho who tried to help Nayun to calm down.

The sentence, 'Wonju is a famous tourist city,' which I wrote without much thought, seemed to have caused this setting.

« I still can't get used to the fact that a small sentence written by him can have such influence on our world. » Rachel find it quite difficult at first to believe all these recent events and doubted what was happening.

She was only able to continue because she kept telling herself it was just a dream and she would wake up soon.

°Your wish is my command little ones-°

The voice suddenly said. The cadets looked around the room but nothing changed then a little hand appeared and rushed to Rachel. It was so fast that Suho didn't have the chance to make it back away.

The hand pinched the blonde's arm as she let a small "ouch-".

« Why did you do that! » shouted Yeonha.

°She wanted to make sure she wasn't in a dream! I thoroughly just helped her! °

I was at the entrance of the "Field" and saw there were many people. I can't go to another place to hunt since the other I have in mind is too dangerous for the current me.

« Like I said. » It was Yeonha's turn to scoff. She was right about one thing. And it was:

« He's by nature a *weakling* » continued Jonghak. There at least was one thing these two agreed to. Kim Hajin wasn't in a state to have a combat with anyone physically.

Heck- Even a mosquito had his chance in a 1v1 with the boy.

"E-Excuse me?"

Just when I was about to enter, someone struck up a conversation. He was an agent.

« Oh maybe that's how they met. » said Suho.

« Do you know that man Suho? » asked Rachel. Suho smiled.

« Yes he is- »

°Please no spoiler… I would appreciate it. °

The boy closed his mouth and apologised silently to Rachel for not being able to explain himself. Yeonha sighed.

"Yes?"

"Are you perhaps here to hunt monsters?"

"...Are you an agent?"

"Ah, yes, here's my business card."

But when I looked at the name and the company logo written on the business card, I doubted my eyes.

« He's important for the story right? » Nayun rolled her eyes at the obviousness. Every time someone or something new was mentioned, it had its use in the story later.

« They make it too obvious in my opinion. » added Yeonha.

« Right? » included Jonghak. Yeonha barely restrained herself smiling but she didn't know that the duo on her left didn't let the action unnoticed.

*Remember the seating order:

Rachel Elizabeth Louise – Kim Suho – Yoo Yeonha – Chae Nayun – Kim Jonghak. *

"... Mr. Park Soohyuk?"

"Ah, yes, nice to meet you."

Park Soohyuk. I knew who he was. Indeed, he looked similar to how I described him in my novel.

« Now that I think about it… He decided about our appearance too… » whispered Yeonha.

« He made me beautiful I don't care how he described others. » said Nayun proudly, puffing her chest and placing her hands on her hips.

« You mean us right? » Yeonha narrowed her eyes at Nayun's comment. The girl ignored the hole that was forming on the side of her head and kept her gaze on the screen.

Park Soohyuk should be the most-appearing agent in this novel, as SH Agent would become Korea's greatest agency.

« A bright future is ahead of them from what he says. » said Rachel.

« But at what cost? » responded Suho.

« Maybe they're just supposed to have a connection with you and that's why they became a famous and important agency. » said Yeonha pointing her finger at him.

That made sense. Everything related to the main character is supposed to have a bright fate ahead of them.

"Haha, you might not have heard of me. I started this work not too long ago."

But for now, he didn't seem to be doing too well. I smiled.

« He gives scammer vibes I don't know why- » mumbled Nayun for Yeonha to hear.

°He may be in a way but no one can surpass a certain expert in scam. ° The voice seemed to smile even if the cadets couldn't see it.

« Who is it? » asked Jonghak.

°You won't know him. He's a red-headed from another world that you're not aware of. °

« Seriously? »

No response was heard. They didn't meet any red-headed person in their lifetime yet so… yeah.

Connections are an important aspect of life. They resulted in ill or good relationships. This world was in his early stages, therefore the best way to get close to future famous personalities was to be-friend them before they become famous.

« Is he trying to befriend us? » asked Yeonha with hope in her voice.

°It's for me to know and for you to guess. °

« You're cruel… » Her face drooped.

°If I was actually cruel, I'd have made Hajin react to you reacting to him. °

They froze at the eventuality. This was a weird and awkward interaction. None of them were willing to be seen by Hajin in their current state. It was way too embarrassing.

"SH Agent, I don't think I've heard of it before..."

« I still think it's a scam. »

°Think as you want. °

The only thing that bothered me was that this connection was supposed to be Kim Suho's.

« Ha- I told you. » Yeonha smiled proudly while Suho was rubbing the back of his neck.

« I'm still fixed on the favouritism part by the way. » Nayun was more than sure at this point. They didn't see Hajin like the person to do that kind of thing but it was obvious from the way he treated Suho.

Being the main character was no excuse.

"It feels like a trustworthy name."

"Ha, haha, thank you."

"Ah, by the way..."

I took out my laptop to check if there were no changes with Park Soohyuk's setting. There were none.

« Is it a good thing in his case? » asked Jonghak. At this point, most of the weird question were coming from Jonghak or Nayun. They truly were a great fit together. Even though Nayun would rather die than see the reality in front of her.

« Good thing. » answered Yeonha quickly. And most of the answering was Yeonha's… What a nice trio, isn't it?

"My main weapon is a gun. Is that okay?"

« He's mocking us! He knows he can use other weapons other than gun but still refers to it as main weapon! » Nayun had have enough of her friend's (indirect) lies!

He clearly didn't need a gun and only needed a weapon with whom he can aim. Just like the bow. It was Yeonha who explained her theories to her in one of the breaks. She made use of it to blame Hajin. How vicious.

"I don't think why that would be a problem. Gun or sword, mercenary or hunter, it doesn't matter to me! New customers are always welcome!"

« I feel bad. » *Rachel*

« Me too. » *Suho*

The cadets felt bad for him but they knew a little bit how difficult it can be for a new small agency to make her way to the top. At least Hajin made sure to repay their despair.

Park Soohyuk put his hand out with a bright smile. I walked into the field and the agent followed me.

« He seriously is despaired at this point. Wasn't the agent supposed to wait outside the portal when he didn't have a vehicle to accompany his customer? »

« Well Yeonha not every new agency can afford that at first. » said Nayun in a pretentious tone. Wasn't she also filthy rich?

Kim Suho ignored the interaction and turned away. Rachel and Jonghak didn't understand a thing about the conversation and why Suho preferred to ignore the conversation while Yeonha glared at Nayun.

We finally spotted a monster after 30 minutes. It was a low-rank grade 9 monster called an iron hog and its skin was as hard as iron. Hajin was about to shoot but Park Soohyuk tried to stop him.

« He seriously thinks he can get it with a simple gun? It won't even leave a scratch on the monster's skin! » Jonghak scoffed.

« Who knows? » replied Yeonha

« Hajin is capable. We all know how he is. » Nayun surprisingly nodded at Rachel's affirmation. They believed in him as well as Suho did.

Who could blame him? Not everyone knew that Hajin's gun was more powerful than a simple gun. The agent failed miserably at convincing him but was astonished when the boy managed to kill the monster with only one bullet.

« Why do I have a weird feeling about all this? » Yeonha said her thought out loud.

« You too? I thought I was the only one who felt something was off about this. »

Oh, and by the way, the setting I added to my Desert Eagle was simple and effective. Tsk- Cheater- » Jonghak gritted his teeth. While everyone had to work hard to level up and improve, this guy had the sole option to write new settings to his abilities and weapons.

Talking about a cheat code.

===

[When a monster is one-shot killed by the Desert Eagle, its attack power is amplified.]

—Using low-intermediate rank as the standard, 1% attack power increase per kill.

—Repeated killing of same ranked monsters will slightly lower the amount of attack power increase.

===

« That's smart to be honest. »

« Yes, adding a negative condition was appropriate to save some of his SP. »

« Hey Yeonha »

« What? »

« Do you think I can convince him to improve my stats? » What a delusional girl was Nayun. Yeonha sighed and shook her head. Nayun sulked at the confirmation that she can't increase her stats the easy way like the author of their world was currently doing.

They struggled to put the beast's corpse in the agent's magical pouch since even Hajin's strength state wasn't that high either. He ended up by collapsing on the ground out of exhaustion.

« Like I said, a pure weakling. » Jonghak snorted. Wow, he only opens his mouth to make comments about Hajin or insult him.

« I hope he'll change later. » Suho muttered to himself.

« Who know? He's relying way too much on weapons to manage such a thing. » Yeonha replied.

Hajin had to end his hunt with only one kill since it was already 7. They discussed about how to transport it out of the portal and laughed, then they heard a rustling sound.

« Another monster I guess… » Nayun commented.

« You have to be truly dumb if you don't come to this conclusion after reading so much. » Yeonha said.

Nayun glared at the brunette next to her who ignored the long stare. Her attention shifted to the screen after a while and Yeonha was relieved.

I took out my gun once more with my index finger over my mouth. Then, I fired at the direction of the sound. Thud. There was no scream. Only the sound of a beefy body crashing down rang out.

« What did he catch this time. »

« SHHH » whispered Yeonha to prevent Jonghak from adding any more comments.

He managed to kill a Black Pelican. They took that one too.

« Greedy one day, greedy always. »

The next day, my entire body ached. He only hunted two monsters yesterday but they were too heavy.

« I bet I can lift those two monsters with one arm. » Jonghak bragged.

« Don't be too pretentious. He's weak but it's not that bad… » Nayun replied.

Silence.

« Come on guys don't make it awkward! I'm just trying to convince myself as well! »

Park Soohyuk was quick with his work, as expected of him. Everything was taken care of overnight.

« He's a pretty good agent. I understand why he was the most important agent spoken of in Hajin's novel. » Rachel enjoyed reading about the tiny little details that Hajin added in his novel.

« Too bad he was reserved to a certain someone. » Kim Suho ignored the stares of Jonghak and Nayun while Rachel was worried for him while simultaneously wanting to laugh at him. He looked at her helplessly and she just adverted her eyes on the screen.

« Rachel… That's mean of you… » whispered Suho quietly. The girl ended up smiling at the amusing situation. Yoo Yeonha smirked too.

We were assigned the most difficult theory class since we didn't have physical training today from what other cadets said but of course, it didn't apply to me.

« Don't tell me boasting Hajin is back- » said Nayun and got cut off. Again.

« What's that again? » *Yeonha*

« He enjoys deeply boasting about his abilities… »

« FACTS. » *Jonghak*

I fiddled around with my laptop when the teacher announced that there was a test today. I wasn't the only one unaware of it as I saw Nayun mutter in despair.

« I WAS NOT »

« Yes you were. » contradicted her Suho. « You forgot I was a witness. » He lightly smiled. 'Smiled' wasn't the right word. It was more of a devilish smirk.

She looked away from embarrassment.

Suho who was sitting next to her showed her the notes I deliberately wrote yesterday, she coughed in embarrassment.

The problems were more difficult than most of the class expected but I was different. I only had to search on my laptop, which wasn't visible to others, to get the answers.

« But I thought he was able to respond because he was the author! » *Jonghak + Nayun*

°Like I said, you all think wrong. °

« That's not fair. Can I use my smartwatch to do the same thing he does with his laptop? » *Nayun*

°Is it invisible to everyone except the user? °

« No. »

°Then you have your answer. °

« You- » Her mouth was sealed. Again. Why was everyone so obsessed with cutting her sentences middle off and shut her mouth?

When I finished with writing my answers, the laptop suddenly shut down. I was worried and because I was in class, I couldn't do much about it. Then blue letters started appearing on the screen.

The cadets started to pay more attention to the screen. The more they read, the more interesting it got.

[A month has passed.]

'And so many things already happened to this unlucky boy' *Yeonha*

[The laptop's functionality will be updated.]

'Another cheat code?' Nayun complained.

[Target Kim Hajin's Observation and Reading Gift will be strengthened.]

Nayun sighed at the same time as Jonghak. They truly were a match. *A match in heaven in my opinion*

Today's Noble Society meeting was at a coffee shop in Seoul.

« What's that again? » *Nayun*

"How are your grades?"

"It's good enough."

"The Jonghak I know isn't content unless he gets first place."

Yeonha was clearly searching to extend the conversation. The concerned person was still oblivious though of her feelings or didn't care enough to show a reaction.

Cold sweat flowed down Rachel's forehead.

'What a tension…'

Yeonha rented the place thus no customers were seen in the shop even if it was popular.

"Like I said, it's good enough."

"...Yeah, okay."

The atmosphere was cold in the room.

'Why did he make his character like that I don't understand. Why is he deliberately making me suffer?'

°Sorry but not every crush needs to end up with a relationship. °

« I know… » *Yeonha*

« Are you talking out of experience? » *Rachel*

°For your information, my crush doesn't know my existence. °

« It's that bad- » *Nayun*

°Just like the situation you're in. °

« YOU- » Do I need to tell you what happened? Her mouth was obviously sealed.

Nayun entered the shop and sat down. Unlike how Kim Jonghak acted with Yoo Yeonha, he actively brought up conversation topics. It bothered Yeonha. She took the cup of coffee she ordered for Nayun and heated it up with her magic power.

« WAIT THAT WAS YOU! »

Yoo Yeonha awkwardly smiled at the accusation.

« It wasn't that bad though… »

« I NEARLY LOST TASTE! »

« You said it yourself, nearly »

« I'm going to- » Jonghak was restraining Nayun by her arms to prevent her from attacking the purple haired girl who was hiding by Suho and Rachel.

°Enough! You look like children fighting! °

The room got quite as everyone was teleported to their seat.

But the girl hurried and joined the conversation when she heard a certain name.

"Kim Hajin?"

"Yeah."

« What a topic we had… » *Jonghak*

« You can say that… » * Nayun*

"...What about him?"

"What do you think about that bastard, Yeonha?"

« You should calm down the next time you want to talk about him. » *Suho*

« I meant every word I said about him. » She turned her head with a humph.

Kim Suho sighed at the girl's reaction and went back to react. A lot of people sighed in this chapter don't you think?

She normally would have referred to him with stupid names like that but the circumstances have changed. She hid her thoughts and only responded incrediously.

« It's not good to play dumb with your best friend. »

« Deserved. »

« How…?! »

« You don't need to know the reason. »

The latter kept insisting on knowing the reason but got a cold silence as answer every time.

"...What do you mean? He's just an average guy."

« Average author I guess… » *Jonghak*

« With all the benefits and options… » *Yeonha*

°Stop being so dramatic. °

« You can't understand how we feel. » said Nayun like she was performing on stage for a dramatic scene of theatre.

"No, nevermind."

« You know way more than what you leave to believe. » Nayun narrowed her eyes at her friend.

« You're the one who assumes things in a strange way. » The girl shrugged while the other was looking at her with wide eyes and an offended face.

Nayun took the cup of coffee in her hands and squeezed it. She surprised Yeonha while Jonghak seemed to enjoy an angry Nayun.

Rachel flinched at the scene. That's a detail she didn't want to know about.

'How strange… Wait that's mean to even think that-' The blonde was having an internal battle with her mind on what was good or rude to think.

"That bastard is hiding something for sure."

« *cough* Y-yeah we've got to see that here… » said Rachel covering her mouth with her fist.

« Now that we know his secret(s) maybe we won't make such assumptions in the future. »

« Don't be too optimistic Suho I bet he has more under his sleeve than what we were shown. »

« And you should stop being so pessimistic Yeonha. »

« Stop arguing you two! » said Nayun interposing between the two before it came to a real dispute. Suho would never start an argument unnecessary but who knows? They were all acting weird lately.

« I'm not arguing. I'm simply explaining why I am right. » deadpanned Yeonha.

Suho looked at her offended. It definitely didn't change anything in the girl's attitude.

"What are you so angry about?"

« His whole existence. »

« Stop it already. » Yeonha nudged Nayun's shoulder to prevent her from adding anything unneeded.

"You don't know? There was a Djinn at the National Weapons Museum during the recent monster incident in Seoul. Then, that bastard..."

« What about the incident? It's already been explained to us before so I don't see the use to react to that. » asked Rachel.

« I also don't know. Maybe it's a long story? » Suho was not part of the conversation and didn't know what happened. The other three cadets who were reacting were silent. Especially Yeonha who felt guilty.

Nayun didn't care about most of it and Jonghak even less.

Chae Nayun gulped down her coffee. She then immediately spurted it out.

Yeonha turned her head to Suho and avoid Nayun's gaze. She wanted revenge and won't let it slide like that.

"Aak! Fuck, it's hot! Water! water!"

Panting, she looked for cold water. Yoo Yeonha carefully consoled her, feeling a knot in her heart being loosened.

« You're sadistic… » mumbled Nayun to herself. Unfortunately for her, the brunette sitting next to her heard it and smiled.

Maybe she was a sadist.

"...Nayun, that's coffee, not cold water."

« You're responsible for this mess and you still made it look like nothing was your fault. » Jonghak started to smile and ended up laughing. Yeonha was in a mess. A hot mess.

"You haven't changed, have you?"

Shin Jonghak laughed, while an employee quickly ran over with cold water.

"H-Here."

Chae Nayun quickly grabbed it and gulped it down.

"Aagh, I burned my tongue."

« I couldn't eat properly an entire day because of you… »

« It kind of sounds like a "you" problem… »

« May I hit the person sitting on my left side please? »

°No violence in this room. °

« Then why did you let her smack my head before! »

°None of your business! °

"Anyways, that Djinn was stronger than Kim Suho and I thought. Even I..."

She made a pause and didn't want to talk about it in details because she thought it was embarrassing.

« Come on you clearly know that this boy was everything but normal. »

« You were the first one to show him hostility! »

« I ignored him Nayun. I didn't talk behind his back. »

« And your thoughts- »

« Still doesn't count. »

« Why??? »

« If we saw what you thought it'd be ten times worse than my thoughts. »

Nayun shut her mouth after the last response. Guilt sprung in her body.

"...Even I struggled a bit. Kim Suho's a different story, but how can an ordinary cadet like him deal such fatal damage to a Djinn?"

« Cause the universe is on his side. » *Jonghak*

« What's with the sudden sarcasm?? » *Nayun*

« We all know the world is on Kim Suho's side. » *Yeonha*

« *gasp* Don't tell me that you have a crush on him or something?! » *Nayun* said pointing at Jonghak while her eyes widened at Yeonha.

Yeonha looked in the other direction to avoid eye contact but Suho and Rachel saw the faint blush on her cheeks.

"What happened exactly?"

"I don't want to explain it in detail. Just know that he blew up a Djinn's arm. With a gun at that! A gun! How does that make sense?"

« He killed a low grade 9 monster with a gun so… » *Nayun*

« You should feel stupid about your assumptions then. » *Yeonha*

"Ah wait."

'Oh no' was the only thing the three cadets aside from Kim Suho and Rachel could think about. Their conclusion was stupid compared to the truth that Hajin holds.

"Could it be that he's... a Djinn?"

« Wait a minute, what? » Suho and Rachel exclaimed at the same time.

« I'm sorry but how did you come up with such a conclusion?? » Rachel asked tilting her head to the side confused.

« We didn't know the truth so it seemed like a more logical conclusion for us to come up with! » *Nayun*

« We didn't know the truth so it seemed more logical to you. » *Yeonha*

« Where's the solidarity with you? »

"...Nayun, if he was a Djinn, he wouldn't have attacked a fellow Djinn."

« Exactly. You're just too stupid to know it. »

« Hey take that back! »

« Why should I? »

Suho, Rachel, & Jonghak were silent from the illogical dispute while the other two kept bickering like an old couple.

"I guess you're right. Anyways, there's something about that guy."

« Yep, he knows too much about us. » *Jonghak*

« I don't think it's a good point. » *Rachel*

"So you're telling me you don't like him?"

After a bit of contemplation, Chae Nayun replied briefly.

"...I'm not sure, but something like that."

Nayun felt something pinch her.

« Ouch-! Why did you do that?! » She turned to Yoo Yeonha.

« I don't understand your accusation. Maybe it's the voices' doing. »

°Hey not cool to accuse someone like that. °
