Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 225

Chapter 225: THE ESPER LAW

KI GAYOON rolled his eyes while watching Professor J and Hayoung Cheon’s reaction to the corpse of the humanoid monster that he brought back.

17 was already done inspecting it a moment ago.

After that, the two of them went back to the conference room.

Kwak Hakjae, who left earlier to guide the Civilians in the building to safety, had already returned.

I’m getting tired of all these damned meetings already.

To be fair, this was how busy Gayoon was back when he was still a part of the original Top 5.

And he would be busier later.

Tsk.

"It’s dumb," Gayoon said while sitting on the chair. "It didn’t fight back when I grabbed it, but it tried to self-sabotage. I believe it was programmed to kill itself if it detected any sign of danger."

Professor J nodded.

On the other hand, Hayoung Cheon kept jotting down every single thing coming out of Gayoon’s mouth...

... using a typewriter.

But, of course, it wasn’t a typewriter— it was an Item.

"You said the other Espers didn’t detect this thing," Professor J said, lifting his head to meet Gayoon’s gaze. "How did you know that it wasn’t human at first glance?"

"I just now," Gayoon said casually, shrugging. And then he turned to 17 who was already playing a mobile game. "How did you know?"

"Only weaklings wouldn’t notice it, Gayoon," 17 said casually. "But it’s hard for us to explain it to others. After all, people like us just follow our instincts."

"Don’t lump me with you."

"Come on, you’re hurting my feelings."

"It’s possible that only natural S-Class Espers could detect the thing’s presence," Kwak Hakjae said, ignoring Gayoon and 17’s banter. "I’m an A-Class, and yet all I can see is a human corpse."

Professor J and Hayong Cheon nodded in agreement.

"Then it makes this thing more dangerous if only natural S-Class Espers could detect it," Gayoon said. "There are only five natural S-Class Espers in our country."

"There’s only one in my country," 17 said. "Me."

"Maybe normal S-Class Espers could detect it," Professor J suggested. "Esper Ki Gayoon, please lend this corpse to the Awakened World Organization. We need to create a device that could detect this thing’s presence if most Espers couldn’t. In return, we will give South Korea the top priority once the device is completed."

"Yu Minju could probably invent the same device, so why would I need your help?" Gayoon asked, scoffing. "Yu Minju isn’t just a "human CCTV." That kid is also an expert when it comes to inventing Items. You know that, don’t you?"

Professor J and Hayoung Cheon couldn’t talk back.

After all, the Awakened World Organization scouted Yu Minju in the past when the kid awakened.

For some reason, Yu Minju chose to join my gang— er, guild.

"Then let’s negotiate again," Professor J said. "What do you want this time, Esper Ki Gayoon?"

"The Esper Law," Gayoon said right away. "I want the Awakened World Organization to support my declaration of the Esper Law."

Professor J and Hayoung Cheon both gasped at the same time.

On the other hand, Kwak Hakjae just sighed and shook his head.

"Do it," 17 said casually, then he lifted his head and met Professor J’s eyes. "I trust Gayoon."

Gayoon rolled his eyes. "Don’t trust me."

Somewhere in Japan...

LEE SARANG almost dropped the cherry tomatoes she was having as snacks while watching the news on TV.

Omo!

It was a Korean broadcast that was being watched by the entire world at the moment.

After all, there was a pandemonium back in her motherland.

President Cheol Kang— the South Korean President— was arrested by the Awakened World Organization Officers for being a traitor.

Oh, President Cheol is finally exposed.

According to the news, President Cheol Kang allowed the National Guide Bureau to experiment on some of their high-ranking Espers.

On the other hand, Chief Kim Munhee was already missing.

But Chief Kim is already being hunted down by AWO.

"Oh, no," Lee Sarang gasped again when the next breaking news came. "Oppas... Unnie..."

The breaking news was about Matthew, Jin Sooin, and Ryu Sungbin’s betrayal.

A video was played, showing how Matthew and Jin Sooin opened a dungeon and brought dungeon monsters to attack Civilians outside.

Then another video was played.

This time, it showed 17 fighting with Ryu Sungbin.

There’s a reason why 17 is officially the #1 Esper in the world.

This is Haru Oppa’s hotel.

Ah, that sounds like what Gayoon Oppa would do.
