"Mr. Zong said he can't leave right now, so he asked you to wait over there for a while, otherwise you..." He hesitated before continuing. I guessed he wanted to persuade me to…

That day was no different from any other. Except for one thing, Baek Dojin, who usually followed Jiho around like a shadow, had gone to a meeting with the Esper Director. With Baek Dojin finally separated from him for the first time in a while, Jiho wandered aimlessly around the Center. There wasn’t really anywhere worth going inside the Center, and he figured maybe if he just walked around, a good idea might pop into his head. “Uuumm…” Alone and dazed, Jiho made an easy…- 289.6 K • Completed

“Absolutely not!!” After he left the party building, Haas regained his senses and dropped me off at the Adeye residence. The acrid smell of the fire still didn’t dissipate.

You shouldn’t go to Crystal Lake!!” I walked toward the clinic where Doctor Kim was lying. I looked back with a…- 309.3 K • Ongoing
“Are you saying a monster attacked him and that’s why he ended up like this?” When they brought Aquador to the infirmary, the jellyfish nurse lifted Aquador’s eyelids and shined a light into his pupils as he asked. “Yes. He passed out after being strangled.” “…Hmm. This isn’t fainting from asphyxiation.” “What?” “What did you say the monster looked like?” Yohan found the nurse’s question strange. He wasn’t someone who came to the infirmary often, but from…- 282.1 K • Ongoing

- Just as the retainers gathered for a Round Table meeting to exchange opinions, a letter arrived. Biakin's thinking might not have been wrong. There were retainers who, citing demons and such, sought to avoid war. Though the Hestro family ruled the North, they weren't dictatorial enough to simply ignore their retainers' opinions. This was partly because the northern nobles all had strong personalities, and partly because the Hestro family, having endured many rumors over the years, was…

While the world was in such an uproar, Yohan was simply at peace. After purifying the members of the Special Suppression Unit, he displayed the autograph he received from Jeong Siyoung in the private trophy room Lee Hyunmook had specially prepared for him, and was happily admiring it. “Hehe.” He had even taken a picture of the autograph to show off to his family and the Taeyang Team, but something felt empty.
