Episode 2. Test “I want to study.” “…What?” It was late June, when humidity and heat were at their peak. During an ordinary breakfast, Jiho, who had been lost in thought, suddenly spoke up. “The application period for the qualification exam is coming soon.” “Uh… so, you want to take the qualification exam?” “Yes. Can’t I?” For once Jiho watched Dojin’s reaction. Dojin quickly added before Jiho could misunderstand him. “You can do whatever you want.…-

–Huh! Captain! Who in a relationship doesn’t get jealous? “No, Jiho never showed jealousy before….” –The fact he asked what you two are, that itself is jealousy. Do you really not get it? Kijoon sighed heavily like he was frustrated and started scolding him. He even pointed out one by one the mistakes that weren’t exactly mistakes but still were. When Dojin thought alone, he hadn’t realized it. But hearing it from Kijoon, he understood. It really was his fault. He had never once…-

“……” Dojin unconsciously folded his arms over his chest and leaned to the side. The girl sitting facing the door noticed him first and raised her hand. “Ah! Over here!” The way she acted, as if she was part of their group, annoyed him. It felt like he was tagging along on Jiho and the girl’s date. Just when he was about to frown, Jiho turned back and smiled warmly. “Hyung! You’re here?” “Jiho.” When he walked over, Jiho glanced at the girl and explained. “I…-

The movie they planned to watch was a new release that had been getting attention lately. Since it was the weekend and the weather was clear, many people had come to see it. “There are so many people.” “Yeah.” Dojin nodded and he checked Jiho’s expression. He thought Jiho would be nervous in a crowded, unfamiliar place, but Jiho was calmer than expected. “Hyung! I’ll go buy popcorn and drinks!” “No, I’ll…” “Hyung, stay here!” Dojin thought Jiho would rely on…-

Episode 1. Jealousy The early summer sunlight stabbed through his eyelids. Dojin frowned a few times and he tossed, groping at the space beside him. “Mmm….” His fingertips touched nothing. No, they touched something, but it was not what he expected. ‘Again….’ This was already the seventh time. He woke up alone because the space beside him was empty. Dojin barely opened his eyes and he turned his head to look around. He already knew, but when he saw the empty bed his mood…-

Whether the laundry was piling up or the dishes were left undone, none of it mattered anymore. Thud. As soon as the front door closed, Jiho’s back hit the wall. Unable to hold back any longer, Dojin nibbled and licked Jiho’s ear, then showered kisses all over his small face. “W-wait, hyung…!” Jiho, trapped between the wall and the massive frame of Dojin, let out a strained groan and struggled. Dojin bit Jiho’s cheek and frowned. “Why…” “This is, th-the…-

Dojin woke up. For someone who had been unconscious for four months, it was a surprise that his condition was good. Still, after lying in bed for so long, some rehabilitation was needed. It took another full month after waking before he was discharged. “I could’ve carried that.” “You’re a patient!” On the way home from the hospital, Jiho strode ahead energetically, carrying the luggage. Dojin watched his back with gentle eyes. Unlike himself, who had lost muscle and needed rehab,…-

Jiho’s dilemma dragged on for quite some time. He knew he had to go, but the feelings built up over four years couldn’t be so easily discarded. He was worried about Baek Dojin. After all, this point in time could be seen as the past of the third life Dojin. ‘Come to think of it… after remembering the first round, hyung kept having nightmares.’ Could it be that when Jiho returned to the third life and his body suddenly died, it had shocked Dojin deeply? Countless concerns filled his…-

After letting go of his anxiety, Jiho became even more proactive in his duties as Baek Dojin’s paired Guide. It was a direct result of the realization he’d come to that day, as he listened to Baek Dojin’s heartbeat. That the Dojin from the first life and the Dojin from the third life were the same person. Jiho even began correcting Baek Dojin’s rotten attitude. All the nagging he had previously held in, thinking it wasn’t his role, he now let out without restraint. “Hyung, couldn’t…-

At first, he had thought it would be simple. He believed that since he had entered the dungeon with the artifact, the god would naturally reach out to him. But nothing happened in the first dungeon he entered while holding the artifact. Even when he called out to the god silently in his mind, or aloud with his voice, there was no response. ‘That’s strange…’ Still, it was only the first try. At that point, he was more confused than afraid. But when nothing happened in the second,…-
