Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127: THE MASTERPIECE

[A few years ago...]

"YIHUN-AH, why couldn’t you fight like an Esper?"

"Well, I don’t know. Maybe because I’m a Guide and not an Esper?" Yihun asked sarcastically. "Shocking, right?"

Of course, his sarcastic remark earned him a punch in the face.

Yeah, he was also sent flying— his back hitting the wall, almost breaking his spine.

However, Yuno slid down the wall with a smile on his face.

On the other hand, the Esper "instructor" who punched him suddenly went pale. Because punching Yuno meant making physical contact with him.

Yep, that’s the face of someone who fucked around and found out.

"Yes, I can’t fight like an Esper," Yuno said, standing up slowly— smirking while closing his hand. "But I sure as hell can fight like a Guide."

The Esper instructor clutched his chest tight as if he couldn’t breathe.

Haaah.

Reverse Guiding is really fun.

"Yihun-ah, murder is bad."

Tsk.

Yihun immediately opened his hand, freeing the Esper instructor from his painful Reverse Guiding Technique.

The Esper instructor then fell to the floor— unconscious.

Fucking weakass.

"Yihun-ah, did you dye your hair?"

Ah.

Yihun touched his mint green hair. "Yes," he said, pointing at the knocked-out Esper on the floor. "That instructor said he hates seeing me stand out in the crowd— that I should hide when I see him outside training time. So, I dyed my hair with an eye-catching color. Now he could see me even if he doesn’t want to."

Jacob looked shocked at what he said, and then he laughed. "What a petty bastard."

"Are you describing that instructor? I agree then. What a petty bastard for feeling inferior to a Guide."

"Noh Yihun, your cheekiness will kill you someday."

"So be it."

"You’re the most talented when it comes to mastering the E-Class Guides’ Way, but you lack power when it comes to using your Mana the way Espers do."

"Hyung-nim, I don’t understand why E-Class Guides need to change the flow of our Mana just to imitate Espers."

"My dear dongsaeng, why is it so hard to break you?" Jacob asked, sighing while shaking his head. And then he patted Yihun’s head. "Your stubbornness is probably why Father is fond of you. But Yihun-ah..." The crazy bastard suddenly pulled Yuno’s hair quite strongly, and then he dragged him out of the training hall. "I’m the one in charge of our siblings now— and I don’t appreciate this attitude of yours."

"That sounds like a you problem, Hyung-nim."

"Let’s see how long you can keep up with that attitude."

The next thing Yihun knew, Jacob had already thrown him in the basement cell where his fellow E-Class Guides were "buried."

No, it wasn’t a proper burial.

The bodies were just put on top of one another, creating a small pile of corpses.

Of course, the stench there was beyond horrible.

However, it wasn’t the reason Yihun suddenly felt like going crazy.

Kids.

Children as young as fourteen were among the pile, and he recognized some of them.

They are the new batch of E-Class Guides who just awakened last month.

"Hyung-nim, those kids..."

"Ah, Father didn’t like them," Jacob said casually. "It’s a shame that we had to get rid of the newborn chicks. But what could we do? It was Father’s order."

Haaah.

Yihun clutched his chest tight when his heart suddenly thumped hard and fast against his chest— at the same time, he heard an annoying voice in his head mocking him, provoking him to "let loose."

Am I going crazy?

"Noh Yihun, you couldn’t turn your Mana into a weapon just like how Espers use theirs. But you successfully imitated one thing unique to Espers."

What bullshit is this bastard spouting this time?

What’s happening to me?

***

[Present...]

Why do people who fall for me always meet misfortune?

After all, this Hyung-nim is Father’s number one fan.

Hyung?
