A GUIDE who can block the world’s #1 Esper’s attack?
Bullshit.
17 wasn’t looking down on Guides.
But it was a fact that Guides couldn’t fight Espers physically.
Haaah.
"You’re humbling me too hard, Mama," 17 complained. He might have sounded cheerful, but he was actually pissed as hell. "You blocked my thunderbolts with just your umbrella."
Of course, 17 knew that the umbrella was an Item and not just some ordinary stuff.
However, it didn’t feel good watching Song Heejin casually open that damned umbrella and block his thunderbolts just like that.
What kind of barrier is that fucking umbrella?
"And this is why I told you to join me," Song Heejin said, closing her umbrella. "I’d hate to kill you after all, my precious boy."
After saying that, Song Heejin pointed the tip of her damned umbrella at 17.
Oh, shit.
17 felt a shiver down his spine when he saw the tip of the umbrella sparkle.
He then quickly extended his hands and created layers and layers of thick barriers around himself.
And he was glad that he did that as soon as he saw the sparkle.
Had 17 been a few seconds late, he could have been hit by the gigantic lightning bolt that Song Heejin had released from the tip of his umbrella.
The annoying part?
This damned mama gathered all the lightning bolts I released earlier and turned them into one, gigantic lightning bolt.
Argh!
17 could command different elements, but creating shields wasn’t really his forte.
Plus, he panicked.
He just created the thickest barriers he could summon at the moment.
As a result...
CRAAACK.
Tsk.
Cracks started to appear all over the layers of shields that 17 created.
Moreover, he gigantic lightning bolt was starting to push him.
His heels were creating marks on the ground as he got pushed.
Fuck this shit.
17 could have simply avoided the gigantic lightning bolt instead of blocking it.
However, if he did that, the entire place would turn into dust.
He couldn’t let that happen when Jericho was in the building.
Plus, there were Civilians resting there while recovering after Noh Yuno saved their lives.
My Guide will protect those people even if it means sacrificing his own life.
Ah, that was one thing 17 hated about most Guides.
They like sacrificing themselves for other people!
"Why the fuck are you getting distracted when you’re about to die, dude?"
Huh?
That voice...
When 17 looked up, he smiled when he saw Ki Gayoon floating above him. "Hey, friend!"
As expected, Ki Gayoon scoffed. "We’re not freaking friends."
"Oh, come on."
Ki Gayoon, despite claiming they weren’t friends, snapped his fingers— creating thick walls of dirt around 17.
Only then did he finally let his shields collapse.
I’m saved.
***
KI GAYOON was glad that he arrived on time.
I would have done the same if Noh Yuno were here.
Die, witch.
Guide, my ass.
Ew, disgusting.
Ki Gayoon tried to grab the pink slime, but he stopped dead in his tracks when he felt it.
This damned thing is guiding me?!
***
I’M SUDDENLY pissed.
Yuno didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt like he wanted to punch something while chilling in one of the lounge areas at the Esper Association HQ.
That was where Ki Gayoon had left him before he disappeared to save 17.
"Yuyu, are you alright?"
"Sajangnim, how are Manager Lee and Dalsik-nim?" Yuno asked worriedly when Moon Noa and Haru visited him at the lounge area. "Are they awake?"
"No, not yet," Moon Noa said while shaking his head. "But Lee Woonhak-ssi is already monitoring their condition. Rest assured, Lee Haerin and Yang Dalsik-nim are both out of danger now, all thanks to you, Yuyu."
Yuno was relieved to hear that.
It’s all worth it, then.
"Yuyu, do you know how busy the Esper Association and the National Guide Bureau are at the moment?"
Oh, right.
Sajangnim is acting as the head of the National Guide Bureau now.
"Everyone wants a piece of you, Yuyu," Moon Noa said teasingly, but it was obvious in the older Guide’s eyes that he was serious. "I think we should cooperate with the Awakened World Organization in the meantime. I’ll be busy, so I can’t really help you. That’s why I’m thinking of asking the Awakened World Organization to protect you."
"You sound like you’re leaving, Sajangnim."
"I am."
"Where are you going?"
"To retrieve half of my heart," Moon Noa said cheerfully. "It’s in Binbin’s hands."
Ryu Sungbin?
Yuno furrowed his brows. "Literally?"
"Yes, literally," Moon Noa said, clutching his chest tight. "It’s time I take half of my heart back."
