“I’m not the kind of person who breaks promises so carelessly like someone I know.” Yohan faked a cough and avoided Mikael’s gaze. …Didn’t he just tell me to let go of my guilt? For someone who had just preached about that, he had chosen quite the conscience-pricking approach. However, as Mikael said, Yohan was the one who broke their promise first. He couldn’t blame Mikael for his attitude. “I am sorry.” When he offered the late apology, Mikael looked at him with calm…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
Yohan paused at the cynical response. Mikael’s words, declaring he couldn’t use divine power, crawled back into his consciousness. While Yohan watched his expression, Mikael, who had led him into the space he created, sat down in a chair. When he snapped his fingers, a new chair appeared in front of Yohan. Yohan sat quietly, crossed one leg over the other, folded his arms, and met Mikael’s stare without expression. He had expected this, but it seemed his use of a cowardly trick had earned…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
Mikael’s eyes, which reflected Yohan, shook frantically. He looked bewildered, every muscle in his face moving in confusion, he never expected Yohan to come here. It was the first time Yohan had seen him like that. At any other time, he might’ve felt satisfied seeing him so shaken, but not now. Even amidst this, the smell of blood emanating from Mikael was growing stronger. Yohan frowned and approached him. “Why are you here?” “……” “No, before that. What happened to your…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
Mikael didn’t return, even as the sun went down. That remained true even when it reached 8 p.m., the latest possible time they could stay in the commercial district. Yohan barely managed to calm their confused classmates, who still couldn’t understand why the spring had been restored, and Suhyeok, who had realized something. When they arrived at the place where the guide had first dropped them off, Yohan’s anxious mood showed in his restless movements. But Mikael was nowhere to be found. Yohan…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
By analyzing Mikael’s behavior so far, it was easy to guess why he chose to step in at this particular moment. Yohan furrowed his brows when Mikael stepped up, what he felt wasn’t joy but discomfort that even startled him. “…No, I’ll do it.” When Yohan turned away from him, Mikael stopped walking. Yohan patted Isaac’s shoulder and asked if he was alright, though he knew he wouldn’t get a reply. It was an awkward question no matter who saw it. “……” The first-year students…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
“…Do we have a task we need to do?” They had no choice but to completely surrender. The angel professor and Homern kept bringing up tasks and recommending shops, and the implication was obvious. Whether first-years or not, someone other than the professors obviously needed to handle a job, so Yohan asked. The professors’ eyes sparkled, as if they had been waiting exactly for this moment. “A good decision, Yohan Herse. Your body looks frail, but your head seems to work quite…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
“Hello, Professor.” Despite his frustration, Yohan lowered his body in a polite bow. The angel professor handed Yohan the book he had been holding. “‘How Divine Power Settles in a Believer’s Heart and Expands its Influence.’” “Oh.” Yohan reacted without meaning to because the subject interested him, then he hurriedly closed his mouth. But the sound had already entered the angel professor’s ears. The professor nodded as if he knew Yohan would like it, then turned around.…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
“Oh, the weapon shop.” Suhyeok quickly noticed one store. He was like a curious animal that went into or stopped in front of every shop he saw. This one was a weapon shop. Kylus’ stride widened. “Let’s go in.” He had already gone far ahead of them and reached the shop entrance alone, urging the rest to hurry. “You’re really fast.” He wasn’t a slow person normally, but his speed when heading toward a weapon shop was on another level. Wondering how much he liked these…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
When they gave him looks asking what happened, Mikael looked at his roommates with an expression that seemed a little disappointed. It was the first time his eyes showed his feelings so clearly. Yohan, Kylus, and Suhyeok all felt a pang of guilt, and they all hid the openly suspicious gazes they gave Mikael. “It’s my fourth-year at this school, so of course I’d have some points saved up.” Mikael hinted at where the money came from. Suhyeok looked confused. “Doesn’t it disappear if…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
Yohan turned his head to follow the hand, and he blinked when a finger suddenly poked his cheek. “……” He looked at the owner of the finger without saying anything, and Mikael cleared his throat with a rare embarrassed smile. “Sorry. I heard the music and got excited so I played around a bit.” “Ah.” Yohan rubbed his cheek when he realized Mikael was teasing him, it felt a little unfamiliar. “I didn’t know.” “Suhyeok didn’t mess with you like this?” “He…- 251.0 K • Ongoing
