Sylph had sent it flying

'Cha Ji-hye must be here'

Her request for taxi fare made me think she had come alone

Just what help does she think she could be to me that she came alone? This is an examinees battle

That question was just a fleeting thought before I refocused and continued the fight

Now, I could see a sign

The sound of the bullet bouncing of the shi+eld was the tiniest bit different now than it was just a o

I think this was the tiuns

Center, at the center!

Kwa ji jik!

It's hit in the dead center and the square shi+eld crumbled into a thousand pieces

The man suddenly had a surprised expression on his face

I immediately aimed for the man's face and shot

The second he saw the trigger pulled, the man ducked his head down

Ddang! Ddang!

The hel off from the force of the bullet

'Nice, now one more!'

Using both arms the man frantically attempted to cover his face

Ta tang-

Blood i from both his arms as he was hit with bullets

”Kuaack!”

The ed into the flesh of his arms

Unlike earlier, the bullets were now penetrating his body

Indeed, theHad he been a nor off

Ta tang-

”Kuk!”

The bullet struck an aruard down

Theand another square shi+eld appeared

'damn!'

In the end, he summoned another shi+eld

The man blocked the bullets with his new square shi+eld, put down the sword in his other hand, and su

Ta ta tang-

Without even seeing the shots, he used the block skill for cover as he took out a healing potion fro He took off the top and poured it over both his arms

His flesh closed and the bullets fell out onto the ground

Having healed his wounds, the e far superior than before

'This failed too, do I have no choice but to retreat?'

I couldn't think of another way

The h all my possible attacks

If I wasn't able to attack with so new and different……

And then

From the trees to the left, a human shadow jumped out

Taking off like a bird, the figure leapt towards the ely curved swords

At the same time as they were removed fro speed And froht was shi+ning

An ambush out of the blue

The ure

Chwaaak!

”Kuaack!”

Theout

The left ar the square shi+eld was cut off coround

At the saot up

Upon seeing the identity of the figure, I can't help but be completely surprised

”What are you doing?”

It was Cha Ji-hye

At her words, I reflexively drew up uns and shot haphazardly

Pu pu pu puk!

”Kuaack!”

Having lost his left arm with his shi+eld, the man was left without any defenses and was hit with all the bullets

The ht hand but I was quicker

Ta tang-

In his helmetless head, two pierced red holes appeared

Koong!

Froht over

With his eyes wide open, he breathed his last breath

Su lu lung-

Cha Ji-hye returned her double curved-swords to their sheathes and looked at me

”It has been a long time”

”Yes? Oh, yes……”

Cha Ji-hye?

Did that attack froo come from Cha Ji-hye?

How did she carry out such a stealthy attack? The power to cut off an entire arm of a man with body malleability!

Just now, the blue light that was seen from her double curved-swords, that was definitely an aura

”You weren't an examinee…… when did you die?”

”I died the night I sent you that text”

”What? Then, was it because of me……”

”First, let's take care of the bodies and leave the area”

”Oh, yes”

We dragged the fat man's body as well and buried it

Sylph helped to dig out a hole but at tiht it would be easier if I had an earth spirit

While I buried the men, I couldn't help but have some questions

Since I had received the text, it had already been about ten days

If she had become an examinee at that time, the now she would have just finished her second exam

But froreat abilities weren't that of a 2nd turn examinee

”The blue light I saw on your swords…that was aura, right?”

”You are correct Aura control at the intermediate level allows one to exert aura outside of their bodies and in the Arena, those people are called Aura Experts”

'Intermediate?!'

I was shocked

”How did you raise your otten my spirit summons to intermediate level 1!”

”I am at intermediate level 1 as well”

”Just which turn are you at?”

Cha Ji-hye answered my question directly

”I am a 6th turn examinee”

”No way!”

”It has been 15 years since I have seen you”

At my surprised face, Cha Ji-hye said

”Let's go”

”Huh? Oh, sure”

With a flabbergasted expression, I side Cha Ji-hye

”I a I need a place to stay quietly Would it be possible to request this from you?”

”…… huh?”

I thought I misheard her

Cha Ji-hye said

”I have no money to my name When they threw my body into the ocean, the Chinese tookI have had a bit of a difficult time because of that”

”Oh, then, let et you a hotel booked……”

”I think it would be best to stay together”

”I have a woman I live with……”

”You intend to continue living with your girlfriend while you are clearly a target?”
