Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 219

Chapter 219: NEGOTIATION

AH, HOW COLD.

Ki Gayoon was amused by how the atmosphere turned so cold even though none of them there was an ice manipulator.

But I get it— Hakjae Hyung-nim’s revelation is really shocking.

After all, the fact that Kwak Hakjae had the ability to activate personal Status Windows was revolutionary.

It will forever change the Esper game.

"Ki Gayoon, tell me," 17, a usually chill guy, said in a serious tone. "How does having your own personal Status Window affect your life as an Esper?"

Oh, the official #1 Esper in the world believed us.

That meant the Awakened World Organization would also believe them.

They trust 17 that much.

Gayoon’s job was to convince 17 fully of how valuable a personal Status Window was.

Fortunately, he received a new skill from the System last time.

"If we fought before President Kwak activated my personal Status Window, I would have ended up half-dead," Gayoon said, shrugging. This wasn’t the right time to act prideful. After all, it was true anyway. "But, if we fight right now, I may lose a limb or two. But you’re the one who’s going to end up half-dead, 17."

17 raised an eyebrow as if he was amused. "Really now?"

"With a personal Status Window, I can see the descriptions of my skills in complete detail. So, I know how to use them better now," Gayoon said in a serious tone, and then he dropped the bomb that he knew the Awakened World Organization would eat up. "But, most of all, I get to talk to the System."

17’s eyes sparkled.

On the other hand, Hayoung Cheon and Professor J both looked like they were barely holding back from asking questions.

They’re so curious.

Heh.

This only makes my job easier.

"The System gives me side quests, letting me earn rewards," Gayoon said, already boasting at this point. Well, he had to sound that enthusiastic if he wanted these people to bite the bait. "So far, the System has given me a few S-Grade skills and Items. Plus, the System also gives me a buff when I need it."

"Ahem," Kwak Hakjae cleared his throat before putting a hand on Gayoon’s shoulder. "Gayoon-ah, that’s not the norm. The System prioritizes people who are natural S-Class Espers, and that’s why the System gave me the ability to activate your personal Status Windows first."

"I’m also a natural S-Class Esper," 17 said as if he was whining, and then he looked up at Kwak Hakjae. "President Kwak, what do I need to do for you to activate my personal Status Window?"

"That’s exactly why we’re here, Esper 17-nim," Kwak Hakjae said politely. "As you already know, our country is in conflict. It’s only a matter of time before a civil war officially breaks out."

17 looked disappointed that the topic suddenly shifted to politics.

Then, as if he were asking for help, the official #1 Esper in the world turned to Professor J.

And the professor got 17’s message loud and clear.

"My brother, the president of the Awakened World Organization, sent me here because of your President’s request," Professor J said, and the President that he mentioned would be South Korea’s President. "President Cheol Kang wants our help to capture Esper Ki Gayoon."

Gayoon raised an eyebrow when he met Professor J’s gaze.

"Apparently, Esper Ki Gayoon is hiding the fugitive Guide Noh Yuno."

Ah, that puppet President just signed his death warrant in my book.

After all, my priority is to find Noh Yuno.

If they could snatch President Kwak, they would have done it by now.
