The entire Delta Team had been mobilized for today’s gate clearing. When Jinwon could not receive guiding from Hyewoo, he was deployed to relatively low-grade gates, but beginning in Hyewoo’s second week of fieldwork, the grade of the gates he was sent to rose. Their routes naturally began to overlap with the Delta Team’s. Even though Jinwon’s wavelength was more stable than before, Hyewoo was anxious. He still had not found Jinwon’s route, and his guiding deficiency had not been cured. Jinwon…-

“I’m touched that you consider me part of the same team.” “……” Hyewoo was beginning to think he was unqualified to be a team Guide. Jaejun had clearly been well disposed toward him when he first joined Delta Team. The fact that Jaejun had changed like this was largely Hyewoo’s fault. They had gradually grown more distant, and things had started to become strained once Hyewoo began going on deployments with the Delta Team members. Even while guiding, Hyewoo’s attention had subtly kept…

“Guide, this way!” Thud, thud! A creature the size of a three-story building was visible, indiscriminately smashing the structures around it. Its tail struck a nearby building, reducing half of it to rubble. Shards of glass and pieces of the building flew in every direction. “Over there.” Yujin spread a transparent shield and blocked the shower of debris. Every time Hyewoo breathed, a mouthful of dust entered his mouth, making it difficult to breathe. He followed Yujin, coughing…

“It’s a relief there aren’t any flying creatures on this side. I heard they have to block both the ground and the sky over at the B1 gate.” “I know. It really is a relief.” They were already struggling to hold the line. If there had been creatures flying through the sky as well, things would have been even worse. Above all, Hyewoo could not bear to imagine how many civilian casualties there would be if even one got past them. “Yes, it really is a relief….” Yujin was nodding as he spoke…

“Then shall we go again?” “Already? You can rest longer.” “No, it’s all right. I’ll tell you if it gets too hard.” Seeing the people hurrying about right in front of him made Hyewoo uneasy. It was better to let his body grow a little more tired. Because they were holding back a high-ranked gate with too few people, the wounded continued to pour in. The guiding never seemed to end, no matter how much they did. As soon as an Esper recovered, they had to return to the battlefield, and fighting…

Jinwon looked at Hyewoo. Shadows fell across his face as he stood with his back to the light. His expression was impossible to make out, as though it had been painted over with black ink. “Something happens every time I leave you alone. It would be better if I stayed with you.” “Ah…. Then I’ll stay here quietly until you come back….” Hyewoo had been in danger of losing his life twice just today, so Jinwon had every reason to worry about him. When Hyewoo promised not to take even one step…

“…Dr. Lee must have really hurt our Hyewoo’s feelings.” His whisper grew thick with lust. “Are you going to do everything Dr. Lee told you not to do?” “Yeah.” “Good. Then let’s do that.” Jo Huitae tightened his grip on their laced hands and climbed on top of Hyewoo’s body. After living this long, the day had finally come when Dr. Lee proved useful. “You made the right choice, Hyewoo. If you’re going to rebel, you have to do it properly…. I’ll teach you.” “Yeah. Help…

When Hyewoo checked the place Jinwon indicated, he saw a group huddled together there. Jinwon had acted as though he intended to remain a bystander, so Hyewoo could not understand why he was helping now. The ballroom was a wreck, to the point that the crowd that had filled it only moments ago felt like a dream. Two groups were facing each other with several pillars between them. The two defense-type Espers who had accompanied Hyewoo as his guards were also using their abilities. While blocking the…

Hyewoo was among the S-rank guides with a particularly large total volume of guiding energy. The Delta Team Espers jokingly called him instant food. It meant that although he wasn’t the most delicious, he could fill them up quickly and in large quantities. Before even thirty minutes had passed, Kang Jaejun’s eyes slowly began returning to their original color. One eye started to turn golden, but even that soon faded. At last, dark brown eyes emerged. “Ah…. This feels so good. A little more,…

“Are you feeling a little calmer now?” “……Yes.” Hyewoo answered in a small voice. Unable to meet Jinwon’s eyes, he remained seated on the floor with his head bowed. The fit had vanished without a trace, as if it had never driven Hyewoo into despair. Once his emotions had reached their peak and cooled, all that remained was embarrassment. Baek Jinwon’s shirt was damp with tears, and the previously unwrinkled sleeve was crumpled beyond recognition. Though there were gaps in his memory, Hyewoo…

“Actually, I don’t know how I did it, either. I was guiding him in a hurry, and it just happened…. Is it bad for the Esper?” “No. It isn’t.” Jinwon answered in a more subdued voice than usual. “Oh, then that’s a relief….” “It’s dangerous precisely because the opposite is true.” Before Hyewoo had time to feel relieved, Jinwon warned him. “…Dangerous? Why?” “……” Jinwon gathered his thoughts, considering how to explain it to Hyewoo. The highest official rank among…

“Then why did you do that with Huitae? Explain it to me.” “…What?” “I’m telling you to explain what happened with Esper Jo Huitae. Surely you aren’t going to say Huitae was on the verge of going on a rampage?” “……” Hyewoo’s eyes wavered. “How did Dad find out about that….” “Apparently Huitae made quite a racket about it.” Drunk, Jo Huitae had bragged about what happened with Hyewoo to the counterterrorism team that came to the hotel. He had not only exaggerated their…
