Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214: SELF-SARCIFICIAL MINDSET

TSK.

A Stone Golem?

Ki Gayoon clicked his tongue when Erwan summoned a Stone Golem that was probably around 3 meters.

Moon Noa’s ceiling was over 3 meters high, hence the monster’s head didn’t hit the roof.

I know because I was the one who renovated this mansion.

Gayoon pulled out a stone spear from his Inventory, and then he kicked off the ground— leaping high. Gripping the massive weapon in one hand, he cut through the air and soared higher.

He wanted to finish the fight as soon as possible.

But then his Status Window appeared before him, distracting him a little.

[Activating <Beyond the Wall> Skill!]

Gayoon scoffed at the corny skill name.

It’s just an X-ray vision that allows me to see anything made of concrete, dirt, and the likes, so why give it a name like that?

Tsk.

This System has no naming sense.

Anyway, Gayoon’s landed on the Stone Golem’s head— creating cracks all over it because he made his body sturdier than the Stone Golem’s "skin."

As a result, the Stone Golem’s head immediately got crushed.

He then readjusted his grip on his spear, and then his weapon pierced through the monster’s head— skewering it from the top of its head downward.

And then he hit it.

Different Stone Golems had their hearts hidden in different parts of their bodies.

This particular monster had its heart hidden in its "neck."

As soon as Gayoon’s spear hit what was supposed to be the Stone Golem’s heart...

"Oh, dear," Erwan commented, faking the sympathy in his voice, while looking up at Gayoon with a haughty smile on his face. "Gayoon-ssi, you can only blame your short temper for this."

Argh!

Gayoon clutched his chest tight when he felt a sudden pang in his heart— no, in his Core.

He lost strength at the same time the Stone Golem collapsed to the floor, its body breaking into pieces— big "pieces" of boulders, to be precise.

As much as he wanted to avoid getting buried in the rubble, he couldn’t.

Gayoon felt his Mana drop to the Red Zone before everything turned black.

Dammit.

***

YUNO felt a shiver down his spine when the ground started shaking a little— and then it "exploded."

Argh!

He hugged himself and rubbed his arms when he recognized the chilling Mana that made the air heavy.

It’s Gayoon Hyung— and he’s on the verge of going on a Rampage!

Yuno’s body automatically moved, running towards the door.

But a "mouth" appeared on his feet, causing him to be swallowed by darkness.

Only for a moment, though.

The next thing Yuno knew, he was already lying down next to Moon Noa.

Fuck, I can’t escape...

Wait.

Yuno used his elbows to prop himself, turning to Moon Noa.

Oh, shit.

The shield was gone— the System’s protection had collapsed already.

Damn, these noonas are scary.

Yuno still remembered how he suffered from the "discipline" of his siblings, so this was one of the few instances where he knew he should keep his mouth shut.

"Yihun-ah, I’m giving you two choices," Sara said while touching a big white leech wrapped around her leg. It almost looked like a snake. "We can beat you up before dragging you back home, or you can come with us on your own. You’re a smart kid, and I know you hate getting hurt. So, I hope you make the right choice."

"I’m using my brain, so please keep your mouth shut for a moment, Noona," Yuno said. He was done keeping his mouth shut, but he used a polite tone since he didn’t want to get beaten up to a pulp. "Plus, I don’t trust you."

"Who cares whether you trust us or not?" Bibi asked, scoffing. "You’re lucky it was Sara who was sent here to fetch you. If it were the others, you would have been beaten to a pulp already."

Yuno shut his eyes tight, pretending to be deep in thought.

But, actually, he just tried if he could still see the Status Window with his eyes shut.

Hey, Status Window. I’m ready to make a choice. Can you hear me?

[Yes, go ahead and make your choice, Guide Noh Yuno-nim.]

Oho?

It worked.

Let me save Gayoon Hyung.

Yep, that was the choice Yuno made not because he was suicidal— but because Ki Gayoon’s safety and survival were more important than his own.

[Then please follow my instructions.]

How demanding.

"Noona, I’ve made up my mind," Yuno said, opening his eyes— only to be shocked. "What the fuck?"

Sara and Bibi were both pointing a dagger at Yuno when he opened his eyes.

"Are you showing your true colors already?"

"It’s not like that, Yihun-ah," Sara explained, putting down her dagger while gesturing to Bibi to do the same. "You just looked strange for a moment."

Damn, these noonas are sensitive.

If Sara could mess with the System’s protection, then Yuno figured Sara could also sense the System in a way.

Sara Noona probably felt the System talking to me earlier.

Thankfully, these people didn’t know about the ’personal’ Status Window yet.

Well, probably.

"I’ll come home with you or whatever," Yuno said, propping himself up with his elbows. "But in one condition: let me guide Gayoon Hyung first. You can feel him going on a Rampage, can’t you?"

I’m glad Gayoon Hyung isn’t here to listen to what I’m saying now or else I’ll die from embarrassment.

So, Sara Noona is the one who has the final say.

***

MAYBE it was a mistake to force Ki Gayoon to go on a Rampage.

This bastard is really determined to kill me.

I’m only half-Esper, so I can’t keep up with him even though we have the same ability.

We already have everything we need anyway.

Finally.
