Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207: DISAPPOINTED, BUT NOT SURPRISED

<"THE NATIONAL GUIDE Bureau is on the hunt to find Guide Noh Yuno-ssi, a criminal E-Class Guide who caused the death of the late Guide Choi Kangmin-ssi.">

Hah!

Ki Gayoon clenched his hands tight, his eyes glued to the giant TV screen above the bleachers.

He knew there was a reason the start of their fight was interrupted.

And I knew Bambi wouldn’t entertain the reporters for no reason.

"Oh, dear," Ryu Sungbin commented in a fake sympathetic voice. "What would you do now, Gayoon-ah? It seems like your little Guide is being hunted down."

Gayoon clenched his hands tight, his nails digging deep into the palms of his hands.

If he hadn’t hidden Noh Yuno in a place that only he knew, then he would have lost it already.

No one can enter the Beom-seok’s dungeon without my permission.

Even if the entire world threatened Gayoon, he would never hand Noh Yuno over them.

"Gayoon-ah, do you really have time for this fight when your little Guide is in trouble?" Ryu Sungbin asked, pretending like he cared. "We can postpone this match. I’m sure you’d rather be by Noh Yuno’s side than be fighting me."

"You want me to leave this match and what?" Gayoon asked, raising an eyebrow at Ryu Sungbin. "To have you follow me so you’d know where Noh Yuno is?"

Haaah.

I really don’t want to waste my saliva talking to this bastard, but he’s good at provoking.

Fortunately, the arena had a special shield (to protect the audience from getting hurt) that was also soundproof.

But some people could probably read our lips.

"It sounds like you’ve already hidden your little Guide well, Gayoon-ah."

"Why do you think Noh Yuno isn’t here?"

"Ah, so you already knew," Ryu Sungbin said, obviously disappointed. "I knew it wouldn’t be easy to catch Noh Yuno. But I didn’t think it would be this hard."

Instead of responding verbally, Gayoon just snapped his fingers.

Then the giant TV was suddenly detached from the pillar it was attached to, and when he snapped his fingers again, the giant TV went flying.

To Ryu Sungbin’s direction, of course.

Gayoon was expecting Ryu Sungbin to block his attack by burning the TV to ashes.

But that didn’t happen.

Much to Gayoon’s shock, Ryu Sungbin stopped the giant TV from hitting him by using an unfamiliar force to increase its weight, causing it to plummet to the floor and create a crater on the spot where it landed.

It wasn’t just him who was shocked by the power that Ryu Sungbin used instead of fire.

This bastard can only manipulate fire, so what was that?

Actually, he already knew what it was.

He couldn’t believe it.

"You bastard," Gayoon cursed Ryu Sungbin, clenching his hands tight. "How did you have the exact ability and Mana as Yang Youngjae?"

"You’ve already seen half of Matthew’s Core, haven’t you?" Ryu Sungbin asked, poking his chest with a finger. "How do you think I got the same ability as Yang Youngjae?"

What the fuck?

It sounded ridiculous, but not really.

But, come to think of it, Gayoon had always wondered as to why Yang Youngjae was weaker than him when his earth manipulation ability and his gravity manipulation ability were supposed to be close to each other’s level.

Maybe this is why.

"No wonder Yang Youngjae wasn’t able to reach his maximum potential as a gravity user," Gayoon said through gritted teeth. "You stole half of that poor bastard’s Core."

And it seems like Yang Youngjae isn’t aware that half of his Core is missing.

<"DABIN Oppa, there’s one high-ranking Bureau executive headed towards here. She brought two S-Class Espers and five A-Class Espers. Aside from Esper, she also brought an army of agents from the Awakened Police Department. Those little pawns have already surrounded the entire neighborhood. Oh, there are also several B-Class Espers hiding. They’re obviously snipers.">

Kang Dabin smiled while listening to Yu Minju’s report.

His colleague’s voice was coming from the bluetooth earpiece in his left ear and not from the pink turtle plushie in his arms.

So, this is why Gayoonnie told us to keep this place safe.

"Got it," Kang Dabin said. "Thank you, Minju-ya. I’ll take care of the rest."

<"I’ll guide you if a fight breaks out. For now, I’ll be on standby. Fighting, Oppa!">

"Yes, thank you."

And the line was cut off.

Gayoonnie will make you pay triple for the damages.

At least, this man is useful.

Of course, they’re here for our madam.

But not over my dead body.

<"THE NATIONAL GUIDE Bureau is on the hunt to find Guide Noh Yuno-ssi, a criminal E-Class Guide who caused the death of the late Guide Choi Kangmin-ssi.">

I don’t look good in that photo.

After all, it was his ID picture as an official Guide that was taken when he was in his early twenties.

And, yes, it was his original ID— the one stating that he was an E-Class Guide.

<"We regret to inform the public that the deceased Guide Choi Kangnim-nim was actually murdered. After gathering enough evidence, we’re now ready to announce that the culprit is none other than Guide Noh Yuno-nim. The intent behind the murder is obvious. Guide Noh Yuno-nim aimed for Guide Choi Kangnim-nim’s spot as one of the Top 5 Guides...">

Blah-blah-blah.

Bambi said they would be showing the "evidence" later.

But Yuno didn’t wait for the "news" to finish— he immediately called Nam Sori.

Again, I’m glad that there are both a signal and an internet connection here.

<"I’m watching the bullshit Bambi is spouting on national TV, Yuno-ya.">

"Good," Yuno said, relieved that he didn’t have to explain the situation to Nam Sori. "It’s time, Sori-ya— let’s fuck them up."

Uno reverse card, you unloved m*therfuckers.

BAMBI’S eyes were glued to the camera in front of him, the one recording the live broadcast to the entire world during the press conference. "And, now, let me play the video that will prove Guide Noh Yuno-nim’s direct involvement in Guide Choi Kangnim-nim’s tragic death."

Of course, everything in the video he mentioned was fabricated.

Not that Noh Yuno has the time to deny it once the witch hunt for him starts.

Bambi hid his smile when the video started to play— but that smile quickly disappeared when a different video started playing.

What the...

<"Hi, everyone. This is Noh Yuno— an E-Class Guide who is being targeted by Bambi-ssi and the National Guide Bureau.">

Bambi clenched his hands tight, trying his hard to maintain his stoic face.

But he was seething inside.

Noh Yuno, you sneaky bastard...!
