2. The world she returned to Lorena’s eyes flew open. "Gasp, gasp…" She clutched her chest, her breathing erratic and panicked. Her lungs felt like they were being crushed, the pain excruciating. ‘Breathing?’ Her trembling hands reached for her face. ‘Breathing’ meant she was alive. How could that be? Tears welled up in her eyes as she scanned her surroundings. The room around her was all too familiar—the very same room she had woken up in for the past seven years. Her…-

Chu Jin-ho scribbled notes in his notebook as he slowly explained, caught up in a strange excitement that made his speech alternate between rapid and slow. "This is quite a rare case. Awakening at nineteen... All the Espers and Guides at the Center awakened before fifteen. I had no idea it was possible to awaken after that age. There’s so much more to research now." He looked pleased. "She’s sixteen." A calm voice came from behind. The three people who had been intently watching the screen…-

The two walked on after parting with Seo Jin-ho, with Yoon Min continuing to feel the weight of countless gazes upon her. It seemed as if everyone at the Center was interested in her. "Why does everyone keep staring at me?" "Because you’re an S-grade Guide." "But how do they even know that? Can they just tell by looking?" "Those equipped with a wave detector might get a hint by looking, but not everyone can afford to have one—it’s extremely expensive. The reason everyone knows about you,…

Chu Jin-ho spoke while pulling a long syringe from the medical cart beside the bed, chattering on. Yoon Min couldn’t focus on his words. The syringe was as thick as her pinky finger, and it looked intimidating. "You’re not planning to stick that in me, are you?" "…We need to draw blood." "I have a question—why do I have to go through this test?" "It’s not the full examination yet. This is just preliminary data collection to help with the registration." "Whatever it is, why do I…

Lee Hyun asked Na Tae-young quietly. "So, leaving your aura all over the alleyway like that…wasn’t that an invitation to follow?" "…" "You really thought no one would notice you using your powers in Sector 37? What business would you have in a place like that?" "I just didn’t expect someone to sneak around behind me so quietly…like a rat." Lee Hyun smiled with a hint of bitterness. "The rat here is you, Lee Hyun. Hiding an S-grade Guide in your back pocket, hoarding her all for…

"What… what are you talking about?" Yoon Min gasped, struggling to break free from the man’s grip, but it was futile. No ordinary person could escape the clutches of an Esper. Her vision began to blur as her face turned red, her breath hitching painfully. Finally, the man released her, dropping her to the ground like discarded trash. She collapsed, clutching her throat as she coughed harshly, struggling to draw air back into her lungs. She reached for her fallen dagger, but the man’s heavy combat…

10. Erable hated horror movies, but she had no choice. It was the only genre that allowed her to be scared without it seeming unnatural. '...Oh no!' She had, unfortunately, chosen the longest sequel of a horror movie, and when a ghost suddenly leapt out from the darkness, she clenched her teeth hard. She nearly screamed next to him. She didn’t want to draw any attention from the boss next to her, only to end up getting obliterated. Gritting her teeth harder, she focused on the screen. The…-

09. Erable made direct eye contact with Dezeb. ‘...Huh.’ She fumbled a little in her thoughts. ‘Why is he... uh, why is he here?’ It seemed like he had returned from his trip. It had only been a few days..., well, she hadn’t forgotten about it at all. Exactly nine days had passed. Nine days since he had left, and now... Why was he here? His residence wasn’t even in this direction. As her mind scrambled with confusion, she heard him call her…

Episode 16 Since that day, Russelin had been plagued by an inexplicable sense of pressure for days. Aydin's sudden obsession with keeping her bound to the Bert family, and even Celia, who subtly warned her without Aydin's knowledge. Here, everyone seemed eager to devour her for their own reasons, a realization that struck her as odd for only now noticing. ‘I have to escape. If I delay any longer, it’ll be dangerous.’ Sitting at a small table in her bedroom, Russelin wore a hardened…-

Episode 15 "…I can see a faint blue aura around you, my lady." "Around me?" It wasn’t until Russelin heard Lily’s words that her expression mirrored her maid's surprise. When it came to a blue aura, only one possibility came to mind. After receiving Aydin's magic, her body had felt strangely light, as if unburdened. "…Is it still visible?" "Yes. But it’s so faint, I feel it could disappear at any moment…" Russelin looked down at her hand slowly. As Lily had said, a faint…
