Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 121

Chapter 121: MATCHING COLORS

HAAAH. _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

Ki Gayoon had to take a deep breath while trying not to jump Noh Yuno.

The entire room was filled with the Guide’s Mana.

And, for Espers, their Guide’s Mana was like an addicting scent that would never fail to make them sexually aroused.

However, Gayoon’s worry was stronger than his lust at that moment.

Why is that punk holding a dangerous looking dagger?

Yeah, that was what was happening there.

Gayoon sat on the edge of his bed while Yuno was sitting on the floor, facing while, while holding a freaking dagger.

Moon Noa, just how did you raise this punk, huh?

He knew that Noh Yuno was special as an E-Class Guide.

That was why Gayoon was worried.

Again.

I don’t know how to take care of this punk properly.

"Hyung, I’m telling you this in advance because you worry too much," Noh Yuno said in a serious tone, raising the old-looking dagger as if to show him. "But this dagger is an Item that Haru-nim gifted to me before."

"The fuck," Gayoon complained even though the punk hadn’t started with his explanation yet. "Why did that prince bastard give you an expensive gift?"

Items from dungeons cost a fortune— even by my standards.

"Because Haru-nim is a generous rich dude who can afford to give me an expensive gift without asking for anything in return?" Noh Yuno explained, giving Gayoon a look that said he was "overreacting" again. "Anyway, this Item can pump out more blood than normal with just one cut. So, even if Hyung thinks I’m bleeding too much, don’t panic. I’ll be fine."

"You’ll still lose a lot of blood, and you’re telling me not to panic?"

"It’s not to the point that I’ll die, Hyung."

"Will you only be satisfied if I get a heart attack because of your crazy antics?"

Noh Yuno let out a sigh. "Should I just do this in my room, Hyung?"

"No, stay where I can see you," Gayoon said, and then he crossed his arms over his chest. "Let’s just get this done and over with."

"I would have been done with this already if Hyung didn’t start yapping."

"Yah."

"I’m on it, Hyung."

Gayoon was shocked when Noh Yuno suddenly slashed his palm with the dagger unceremoniously.

What the...!

Noh Yuno didn’t flinch as if he was already used to it.

This punk, really...

Gayoon wanted to scold Noh Yuno, but he was left speechless when blood gushed out of the punk’s cut.

The blood didn’t stay in liquid form.

Red "blood crystals"— Noh Yuno’s blood turned into five crystal balls the size of a regular glass marble before they hit the floor, rolling until a few hit Gayoon’s feet.

What are these...?

Gayoon wanted to ask Noh Yuno, but the punk suddenly fell to the floor.

"Yuno-ya!"

"I’m fine, Hyung," Noh Yuno said weakly, raising his shaking hand to give Gayoon a thumbs up. "Lemme just catch my breath for a moment."

***

YUNO flinched when Ki Gayoon poured a healing potion over the cut on his palm.

There he was, sitting on his Esper’s bed while drinking banana milk while letting Ki Gayoon attend to his wound.

I feel like I’m really turning into a princess...

"Did you just make Mana Pills?"

"They are similar to Mana Pills, only they aren’t meant to stop you from Rampaging, Hyung," Yuno explained. "I guess it’s more appropriate to call them antidote."

Ki Gayoon raised his head and looked at him after his explanation. "For the poison?"

"Yes," Yuno said. "I’m sorry to ask this, but please eat that pill before we go to the party, Hyung. Once consumed, that pill would act like a sponge that absorbs any harmful substance in your body. I have a feeling that those bastards will use a stronger poison next time."

"So, you think they’ll attack the Espers first?"

"Of course. Most Guides can’t fight. So, they’ll try to immobilize the Espers before the Guides."

"Am I supposed to share the pills with my fellow Top 5 Espers?"

"I wouldn’t recommend it, Hyung," Yuno said while shaking his head. "I feel sorry to say this, but that antidote is made solely for you since you’re my Esper. Other Espers could consume the antidote, but then they’d feel physically attracted to me since it was made with my Mana."

As expected, Ki Gayoon frowned. "Then I will never share the antidote with them even if the poison kills them."

"They’ll be fine. The poison used by the enemies doesn’t harm Guides, so their Guides can just purify the toxin in their bodies in case they get poisoned."

"If that’s the case, then why did you make the antidote for me in advance?"

Because I might be busy chasing the serial killer during the party, so I’m not sure I have the time to guide Hyung by then.

Of course, Yuno wasn’t crazy enough to answer Ki Gayoon with honesty.

Because Hyung will overreact.

"Prevention is better than cure," Yuno lied with a straight face. "At least one of the Top 5 should be immune to the poison. Hyung is the strongest, so in case the worst-case scenario happens, you have to fight the serial killer while the other Espers are receiving Guiding from their Guides."

"That sounds convincing, but I don’t trust you and your reckless way of living," Ki Gayoon said, scoffing. "I won’t let you out of my sight during the party."

Aigoo.

"Whatever, Hyung," Yuno said, covering his mouth with his hands when he yawned. "Can we sleep early tonight? I’m tired."

"Sure," Ki Gayoon said. "You have to get up early, though."

As expected, they all look the same to me.
