After tidying up the hospital room and returning to the room on the 23rd floor, after thinking about it for 3 days, I finally decided to accept the bodyguard. The problem was that I didnt know what Cheon Sa-yeons intention was to give this order, but it couldnt be helped.

I will be by your side as much as possible, but still, its safer if you have mental ability.

Thats right. And Woo-jin-ssi says that everything Yi-gyeol-ssi says is good, so we need someone to hold Yi-gyeol-ssi.

No, not necessarily

At Min Ah-rins words, Kim Woo-jin blushed in surprise. No, more than that.

Min Ah-rin-ssi, arent you busy?

It was normal for Kim Woo-jin, but I didnt know why Min Ah-rin even followed me. Min Ah-rin, who was chasing after me, opened her eyes wide and looked up at me.

Oh my, are you kicking me out?

Yes? No. That cant be true.

Im kidding. Its a holiday, so I came to take a look.

Min Ah-rin, who succeeded in making fun of me and Kim Woo-jin in that short time, smiled brightly. It felt like the playfulness had increased a lot these days.

With Kim Woo-jin and Min Ah-rin, I headed to the 8th floor as explained in advance by Park Geon-ho. Park Geon-ho, who was waiting for me in the hallway in front of the elevator on the 8th floor, saw Min Ah-rin and Kim Woo-jin behind me and made a funny face.

Is that it? Parents who came to class?

Dont say nonsense.

Park Geon-ho, who giggled and laughed, opened the door to the conference room.

Well, I did select some good ones. Your opinion is important, so I suggest you to take a look.

Park Geon-ho handed me the documents as I sat down. It was a collection of resumes with various information such as photos, abilities, and ranks.

These are the ones I picked out of the 60 volunteers in the mental world I spoke to at the time. They have a good personality, their grades are not bad.

I turned over the documents while listening to Park Geon-hos explanation. I didnt know much about mental ability, but when I put them together like this, they were quite diverse. After looking through the documents from start to finish, I asked Park Geon-ho.

Who did Team Leader select?

Hm. First of all, these three people.

Park Geon-ho pulled out three documents and spread them out on the desk. Then he immediately touched the paper in the centre with his hand.

And out of the three, this one seems the best.

A photo ID of a man with a sad appearance and curly brown hair covering his forehead caught my eye. His ability S-rank emotion control?

An analysis showed that Master Kang Seung-geons ability to control his emotions wasnt only controlling his mind but also controlling his emotions. If this friend is by your side, you wont be swayed like Master Kang Seung-geon.

Emotional domination. I remembered what the doll had said to Kang Seung-geon in the basement.

Have you already noticed the emotional domination side effects?

If it was because of Kang Seung-geons overly emotionally violent behaviour, then his ability to control his emotions would definitely be the counter.

Hes a newbie who was brought in with a lot of money by the guild earlier this year. Its been less than two months since he joined the guild, so he doesnt have much experience, but the mental world doesnt have to fight with anyone like the physic world anyway.

Thats true.

I frowned as I nodded and read the resume.

Isnt he too young?

The man was 20 years old. He was 20 years old and he was 19 just a few months ago. I took a newly-adult child as my bodyguard. Wasnt it too much?

Age doesnt matter.

Its important. Its different, a bodyguard, so does it make sense to ask a child like this to protect me?

At that, Min Ah-rin covered her mouth and smiled, and Park Geon-ho gave a strange expression. Why was this reaction?

Well. Hes young, youre right, but Han Yi-gyeol. Its kind of funny when you say things like that.

What does it mean?

To me and Healer Min Ah-rin, you and this friend look the same.

Its not the same, Im much older than

I cried and retorted, but realized later.

Wait. Im Han Yi-gyeol now, right?

I was unintentionally thinking of my original age. As a 24-year-old who looked at a 20-year-old guy and complained about being young, I couldnt finish my words and shut my mouth. However, Park Geon-ho, who had already heard what he had to hear, laughed and teased me with a face that he was going to die of laughter.

Yes, yes. Youre an adult. Because youre four years older.

Min Ah-rin also responded with a bright voice.

Wa, the four-year age difference doesnt even look good!

Why were you talking about compatibility? Feeling my face heat up, I covered my eyes with my hands.

Our Talented Han Yi-gyeol isnt mature enough for his age.

stop it. After all, its true that he has only been a few months since he became an adult, isnt it?

Right. However, I recommend that you meet him for now. As you said, its true that hes young, but regardless of his age, he has a good personality and has an excellent sense of using his ability.

Uum. Is that so? Anyway, it was the most reliable because it was recommended by Park Geon-ho. There was a limit to what could be known from these documents.

Can I see him right away?

Good choice. Lets call him.

Park Geon-ho, who took out his cell phone, winked one of his eyes at me and left the conference room. Min Ah-rin, who was sitting next to me and looking at the resume, said with a happy voice.

Still, Im glad that Yi-gyeol-ssi accepted the guard. I honestly thought you would say no.

I also feel the need to be careful. I dont want to worry Min Ah-rin-ssi or Kim Woo-jin anymore.

I was worried, but it was because I didnt know Cheon Sa-yeons intention to the last. The guard itself was no problem. Rather, it was something to welcome with open arms.

How should I explain it to Ha Tae-heon?

Ha Tae-heon, who seriously suggested me to come to Roheon, came to mind. I was sorry for him, but I couldnt leave the Requiem now unless Cheon Sa-yeon threw me out first. There were still many things to find out by Cheon Sa-yeons side.

I was thinking about when to contact Ha Tae-heon again, but Park Geon-ho, who had left the conference room, returned.

It happens that the training is over. Were going to hear a more detailed explanation of his ability, so lets move to the basement training room.

Right.

I got up from my seat and checked the ID photo on the resume one last time. Knowing his age, the face in the photo looked much younger than when I first saw him. S-rank mental ability.

I dont know if its okay or not.

We all took the elevator and went down to the basement, but we werent sure. The person who was targeting me was talented person with mental ability who was good enough to make Master Kang Seung-geon to that level. Then if something bad happened

Han Yi-gyeol.

My mind was complicated and I felt the warm body that came from grabbing my wrist. Kim Woo-jin, who called me in a low voice, opened his mouth with a calm face.

No need to worry too much. Most of the time I will be by your side there are other people, too. There wont be many situations where youre alone with the bodyguard.

I missed the timing to respond to the unexpected words and only blinked. I couldnt believe Kim Woo-jin said such a mature thing.

Thats right, Yi-gyeol-ssi. Besides, he was recommended by Team Leader Park Geon-ho. Trust me.

Thats it what I mean to say. I wish Talented Han Yi-gyeol could trust me a little bit.

I guess my worried was noticeable on my face. Park Geon-ho skillfully added a word to Min Ah-rins advice.

You have to act in order to have faith, dont you think you will believe it or not?

This is upsetting. Ive been so nice to you.

Please guide us, Team Leader Park Geon-ho.

As soon as I got off the elevator, there was a wide hallway and several training rooms. Park Geon-ho, who shrugged his shoulders lightly, explained as he walked forward.

This whole place is a training ground used only by the psychic. In the physic world, the training room is a little bigger, and all the walls are made of items. Talented Kim Woo-jin must know well. I heard youre being trained to handle clones.

I looked at Kim Woo-jin while listening with interest. Kim Woo-jin, who had been ignoring Park Geon-hos words with an expressionless face, noticed my gaze, smiled slightly and nodded his head.

Right. In the physic world, when you train, you have no choice but to use your offensive abilities Even though it is an item wall, it often breaks when the strength is too high.

Are you training that hard? Is that okay?

Somehow, the kid had an exceptionally hard time whenever he came back from training. It was all there for a reason.

Tell me if you cant stand it. Ill meet Master Cheon Sa-yeon.

It was difficult to see his face, but if it was a problem like this, I could meet him again and again. Kim Woo-jins timid and shy personality made it clear that no matter how difficult it was, he would just endure it.

When I made a new request, Kim Woo-jin lowered his eyes slightly and quietly nodded with his cheeks blushing.

Uung.

Good. First of all, it was safe. Because Kim Woo-jin still listened well.

Its not good to raise a child too nicely, Han Yi-gyeol.

Dont interfere.

What did you know? Kim Woo-jin was sensitive and not very social, so I had to take care of that part. Park Geon-ho, who covered his mouth with his hand at my sharp reply, laughed and opened the door of the training room with the number 21 written on it.

Could we just open it like this without knocking? I sighed at Park Geon-hos actions, which I couldnt see even after washing my eyes when it came to delicacy, but a soft voice came from inside.

Its been a while, Team Leader Park Geon-ho.

Yeah. Its been a month since Ive seen your face. How have you been?

Of course, Im fine.

Park Geon-ho, who shook hands lightly with the other person, turned to the side and sent a glance to me to come closer. At the same time as the man behind Park Geon-hos body was revealed, he bowed his head lightly and greeted me.

Hello. Talented Han Yi-gyeol.

Ah, yes. Hello.

The man, who held my hand in a respectful manner and shook hands, raised his lowered body and smiled at me. His curly chocolate-coloured hair and brown round eyes were seen. His high nose bridge, the glasses placed on it, and the elegantly raised lips gave off a friendly atmosphere overall.

He was 20 years old. He was quite tall for a young age and had a thick frame. There was a black dot under his left eye, which was slightly curved from smiling. Was it called a tear mole?

My name is Kwon Jeong-han ().

First impressions werent bad. He was 20, so I thought he would look young. I was a little relieved and smiled.

Im Han Yi-gyeol.

Nice to meet you. That actually, Ive wanted to meet you before. Because Im a fan of Talented Han Yi-gyeol.

Pardon?

Suddenly a fan? I didnt think it was a pen for ballpoint pens ( , not sure). Kwon Jeong-han smiled brightly as he looked at me, who was puzzled.
