Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201: THE OLD SLY FOX

"DIDN’T I just tell you you’re not allowed to leave the house?"

Yuno avoided Ki Gayoon’s sharp eyes.

Of course, he knew that his lover would be pissed.

But what could he do?

He had a day job aside from being a Guide.

I already quit my part-time job at the convenience store, and it’s fine since Haerin Noona and Grandpa Maknae can manage the place without me.

It was different from his job as a webtoon artist, though.

So, I really have to go.

"Hyung, I’m just going to meet Writer Youngji," Yuno said, finally finding the courage to look at Ki Gayoon. As expected, he looked pissed. "And Nam Sori will be there, too. Remember her? She’s my Esper best friend— the one who belongs to the Rogue Clan. Nam Sori is strong, so she can protect me if something happens. And I can bring Dabin Hyung or Inwoo Hyung. Even Baekho Hyung-nim, if you’re willing to lend me your right-hand man."

Ki Gayoon looked at Yuno with an indifferent look on his face.

Aigoo.

Hyung looks scarier when he is this quiet.

Ki Gayoon was about to say something, but he was interrupted when his phone rang. He raised his hand as if telling Yuno to not leave his sight before he answered the call. "Yes, Woonhak Hyung?"

Oh.

Yuno’s ears perked up.

Kwon Hojun and Kim Jaeha were still at Lee Woonhak’s small hospital, so the call could be about the two kids.

"Leehan was badly hurt?"

Okay, that got Yuno worried. "What happened to Leehan Hyung?"

"We’ll be there, Hyung," Ki Gayoon said, and then he ended the call. "Get ready, Yuno-ya— we’ll go to Woonhak Hyung’s clinic. There’s a café on the first floor, so just ask your friends to meet you there."

***

YUNO clutched his chest after seeing Leehan, lying on the bed while his entire body was wrapped in a white bandage.

Hyung...

"Esper Leehan-ssi’s entire body was burned as if he was burned alive," Lee Woonhak explained carefully. "I used my power to heal his burn marks, but it wasn’t enough. So, I used a healing Item from my Inventory." The Healer pointed at the white bandages. "Those bandages aren’t normal bandages. They’re called <Mummy to the Rescue>, and they’re specifically used to heal burn wounds. Unfortunately, my skill and my Item aren’t enough to completely get rid of the burn marks all over Esper Leehan-ssi’s body. He’ll live, but the marks will stay."

It was enough.

What’s important is Leehan Hyung survived.

"Was it Ryu Sungbin’s flame?" Ki Gayoon asked, clenching his jaws tight. "Only that bastard’s flame could damage an S-Class Esper like Leehan."

Right?

And it’s plausible since Esper Ryu Sungbin-ssi is living with Sajangnim now.

Then, that almost meant...

Esper Ryu Sungbin-ssi is trying to isolate Sajangnim from his protectors.

"I also believe that the burn was caused by Esper Ryu Sungbin-nim’s flames, but it’s better to ask Esper Leehan-ssi once he wakes up," Lee Woonhak said. "I wasn’t able to talk to Esper Leehan-ssi since he passed out at the entrance of my clinic. It might have taken all the strength in his body to come here."

Haaah.

Yuno clenched his hands tight.

I’m glad I asked Sori to come here.

After all, Nam Sori and Leehan were friends before Yuno met the two.

Sori will be mad as hell.

"Gayoon-san, will it be alright if I kill Sungbin-san?"

Oh, right.

Haru-nim and Sarang Noona are also here.

"Hell, no," Ki Gayoon said sternly. "Ryu Sungbin is mine to kill."

"Alright then," Haru said, smiling. But his eyes were as cold as Lee Sarang’s ice. "I’ll try to retrieve Noa-san without killing Sungbin-san. But you have to cut me some slack if I end up tearing a limb or two."

"Just break his bones," Ki Gayoon said, frowning. "If I win with Ryu Sungbin in that condition, people will think I just got lucky."

Aigoo.

Why are they talking like they’re confident they can hurt the #1 Esper (officially) that easily?

"Is Noa-san in danger?" Lee Sarang asked worriedly. "Is that why Leehan-ssi fought Sungbin Oppa?"

Ah, Sarang Noona doesn’t know.

Is it okay for me to reveal Sajangnim’s secret?

Plus, I need to stop Haru-nim from going on a Rampage.

I can’t believe Sajangnim didn’t waver when Haru-nim has been seducing him all this time.
