"HYUNG, I’m an E-Class Guide," Yuno reminded Ki Gayoon. "I’m compatible with all natural S-Class Espers."
Ki Gayoon clicked his tongue. "Is that supposed to make me feel better?"
"I’m just saying that I awakened a new skill," Yuno said, ignoring Ki Gayoon’s tantrums. He kept his eyes glued to the Status Window. "I suddenly have my own Status Window. I think it has a feature that lets me know if there’s a natural S-Class Esper nearby. Right now, it’s showing me that you, Haru-nim, and Esper 17-nim are available for me to guide if needed."
The other natural S-Class Espers in Korea were Ryu Sungbin, Lee Sarang, Jin Sooin, and Matthew.
But those people weren’t showing up on the screen.
Are they not in Korea?
"Wait. Are we in Korea?" Yuno asked when he remembered he didn’t know exactly where they were at the moment. "I remember boarding a plane while blindfolded after I was kidnapped."
"They brought you to Japan when they kidnapped you," Ki Gayoon explained. "Lee Sarang and the prince bastard found the dungeon where you and Moon Noa were locked up."
Ah, so that’s why Hyung and Haru-nim were together.
"But we’re back in Korea," Ki Gayoon said, staring blankly into the space. Ah, the Esper was probably checking his own Status Window. "The coordinates show that we’re actually in my company. That’s where Beom-seok’s ’body’ is hidden, after all."
"Is Sarang Noona still in Japan?"
"Yeah, probably. Why?"
"She’s not showing up in the list of natural S-Class Espers near me. Ryu Sungbin, Matthew, and Jin Sooin aren’t here either."
"I don’t know where Ryu Sungbin, Matthew, and Jin Sooin are— but they’re probably hiding somewhere far. They’re fugitives now, after all."
"What?"
"I declared Esper Law, so I’m the one running the country now."
"What?!"
"The Awakened World Organization took my side, so we’re kinda working together at the moment."
"WHAAAT?!"
"Why the hell are you shocked?" Ki Gayoon complained, knitting his eyebrows. "You’re the one who dragged AWO here."
Right.
I do remember making a recorded video where I urged AWO to investigate our country, but...
"Well, I didn’t expect AWO to take it seriously," Yuno said, shrugging. "Anyway, is that why Esper 17-nim is in Korea right now? Wow. He’s the #1 World Ranker. I haven’t seen him in person yet. Is he as handsome in person..."
He trailed off when Ki Gayoon glared at him.
Aigoo.
"Noh Yuno."
"What? I can’t help that I’m a fan of Esper 17-nim because he’s strong and handsome—"
"Let’s get imprinted."
Oh.
An Esper asking a Guide to get Imprinted was no different from a marriage proposal.
Plus, I know why Gayoon Hyung wants to imprint with me.
"I know that when E-Class Guides get imprinted, they’ll no longer be able to guide other Espers. That’s why the government deems your class useless. But you don’t have to worry about that anymore," Ki Gayoon said, holding Yuno’s hands. "I’ll free the Guides from the government. I didn’t declare Esper Law for fun."
Yuno raised an eyebrow. "Why do you want to imprint with me, Hyung?"
"Do you really have to ask?"
"Yep."
"I don’t want you to guide other Espers— I’d go on a killing spree if I saw other Espers touch you intimately," Ki Gayoon said, hugging Noh Yuno tightly. "You’re mine, Noh Yuno. I don’t want to share you with anyone else."
Aigoo.
"I’m not going anywhere, Hyung," Yuno said, hugging Ki Gayoon back. "But let’s revisit this later— we have a job to do first."
***
AH, they’re acting awkward.
Yuno noticed immediately that Moon Noa was giving Haru the cold shoulder.
I can tell since Sajangnim isn’t looking at Haru-nim’s way while Haru-nim looks like he’s about to cry while looking at Sajangnim.
Oh, well.
That’s none of my business.
Why is Gayoon Hyung making it sound like I asked him to kill Haru-nim?
Plus, Sajangnim sounded really cold just now.
Haru-nim is devastated.
He’s heartbroken, huh?
No wonder Haru-nim was devastated.
