Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270: SIDE QUEST

HMM?

They’re suddenly cut off?

Ki Gayoon and Haru both turned to the door when Noh Yuno and Moon Noa’s presence suddenly disappeared.

The two of them quickly moved, but abruptly stopped at the same time.

His Status Window suddenly popped up in front of him— and that must be the same case for the prince bastard.

[The System is currently speaking with Guide Noh Yuno and Guide Moon Noa.]

Tsk.

"That System bastard..."

"I agree," Haru said, even though Ki Gayoon didn’t finish cursing. "I can’t keep trusting the bastard that puts Noa-san and Yuno-kun in danger all the time."

Right?

"This is why I’m cheering for you."

Haru looked at Ki Gayoon and raised an eyebrow at him. "I remember you saying you’ll address me as ’hyung’ from now on."

Oh.

Ki Gayoon barely remembered saying that, but he wasn’t ready to commit fully, so he played dumb. "Did I? Why would you want to be called ’hyung’ when you’re not even Korean?"

"Well, I might become a Korean citizen soon."

"Through what? Special naturalization? Well, you’re a natural S-Class Esper. I’m sure our government will welcome you with open arms."

After all, special naturalization applied to those with exceptional professional skills or contributions to Korea.

It applies to the prince bastard.

But would Haru really throw away his citizenship?

"I’m thinking of simplified naturalization."

"You have to marry a Korean citizen for that."

"Noa-san is a Korean citizen, isn’t he?"

Ki Gayoon looked at Haru in disbelief. "You’re really determined to marry that old sly fox?"

"Yes."

"Aigoo. I’m not sure whether to congratulate you or feel sorry for you. I already see you being miserable in the future."

"If I were you, I’d be careful about how I talk from now on."

"Why do I have to mind my manners around you? As my Babe Princess said before, I left my manners in my mother’s womb."

"Gayoon-san, don’t forget that Noa-san is like a father figure to Yuno-kun. If you want to marry Yuno-kun in the future, then you better start earning brownie points from Noa-san. By extension, you also have to start treating me well," Haru said calmly, almost sounding convincing. "I already see Yuno-kun as my son. Whether you like it or not, Noa-san and I will be your in-laws. Well, that is if Yuno-kun wants to marry you."

Tsk.

It was easy for Ki Gayoon to argue if it were with Moon Noa.

But, for some reason, it wasn’t as easy with Haru.

This prince bastard’s calmness is irritating, and a little scary.

"Noa-san and I can influence Yuno-kun’s decision about marriage," Haru said, obviously ’teasing’ Ki Gayoon. "So, what do you say, Gayoon-san?"

Tsk.

Ki Gayoon rolled his eyes. "Yes, I’ll be careful from now on... Haru Hyung."

Haru seemed satisfied to be called ’hyung.’

Ki Gayoon was about to say something snarky because he was annoyed, but he got distracted when his Status Window popped up in front of him again.

This time, it looked like he was getting a call on his phone.

<Esper 17 Calling...>

Oh, right.

President Kwak Hakjae already activated this bastard’s personal Status Window.

"What’s wrong, Gayoon-san?" Haru asked when the prince bastard noticed that Ki Gayoon was staring blankly into the air. "Did the System send another message related to Noa-san and Yuno-kun?"

"No, it’s not about them this time," Ki Gayoon said, pressing the <Answer> button on the screen. "17 is calling."

***

"CHILD, what have you done?" ’Moon Noa’ asked, half-worried and half-annoyed. "Why is your life force shorter than I remember?"

Yuno smiled awkwardly. "Well, about that..."

"Ah, you’ve finally found your Esper."

"Right," Yuno said, snapping his fingers when he remembered that the System had already talked about his ’other half’ in the past. "Were you talking about Ki Gayoon Hyung at the time?"

"I was," the System, still possessing Moon Noa’s body, confirmed. "I’m glad that you finally found each other. You’re the only pair in this country that has a hundred percent matching rate."

"Not anymore. Haru-nim and Sajangnim have a hundred percent matching rate now. And they’re both in the country at the moment."

"I’m sorry to say this, but I prioritized the Espers when I was distributing my powers to the Awakened People who have the right Core to be one," the System explained. "I created E-Class Guides to be an extension of natural S-Class Guides."

My role as an E-Class Guide feels heavier than ever now.
