Chapter 140 - Why do you care that I care? (2/2)

”I don't regret changing it. If I am given the chance, I will do it again.” She crosses her arms in defense. ”Keeper, what are my options?”

She's pretty direct.

”I am glad to see you like this.” He smiles at her. She cringes. She will never get used to seeing her murderer smile at her. ”After I let you live, I had to give an answer to the higher-ups. I told them a simple reason. If a special anomaly can create problems, she can also be used to solve problems. Since you were already used to fix your aunt's mistakes, you could be used to solve the future messed up situations too. For the last three years, we were observing you. You were doing well. Especially, you managed to give hope to Young Hwa. Then, you made a mess again. They wanted to wipe your soul. There was someone who took pity on you. So, a decision has been passed regarding you.”

She blinks at him. What the hell? Who is deciding her life? ”Hey, where's this happening exactly? Can't I go and defend myself?”

He shakes his head. ”If you don't want to get wiped out of existence, you must do what we have planned.”

If she fails, he will also get wiped out along with Kang Si An. According to the higher-ups, Kang Si An is also an anomaly.

”I thought that you were going to kill me.” Her voice is soft. She eases her shoulders.

Being wiped out of existence is less scary than being killed by him? He will never understand this traveler. Is something wrong with her head? Then, she can't be normal after living such a life.

”Since you took the time crystal, your powers are sharp. Your abilities have become stronger. You can't ever use the time-traveling ability unless you want to get wiped out instantly. Even accidentally, you should never use it.” He warns her again before he continues. ”You are allowed to use your other abilities. Since you love to flaunt, the higher-ups have decided to make use of it. If you are proven useful, they will let you live your happy life.”

She sighs. ”I only flaunted it once.”

She doesn't regret killing Park Jae Kyung. There's one less trash in the world.

He ignores her depressive sighing. ”From now on, you will use your abilities to right the wrongs.”

”I am basically going to be an unpaid worker.” She puts her face on the table. ”If I don't do a good job, I will be wiped out of existence. My life is so much fun. I love it.”

”Your love will get wiped out too.”

She sits up abruptly. ”What? Kang Si An too? That can't happen. If something happens to me, Little Hae must have someone.”

”Traveler.” The keeper looks at her and smiles. ”Why do you still care about him? Don't you hate him for making that mistake?”

She puts her face on the table again. ”Why do you care that I care?”

”You are my job.” He has this urge to place his hand on her head. But... she might jump out of the window if he does that.

”I can't help it.” She doesn't say more.

He doesn't ask more about it. ”Let's discuss your first task.”
