Chapter 143 (2/2)
—Yup She looked at you for a while Then she quietly approached you and tried touching your face or sust and said
—Perverted bastard
‘?’
—Even I don’t touch kids
‘What the hell are you talking about? And why didn’t you wake ht it eird too and tried to secretly wake you up, but…
Philip stole a glance at the girl as praying
—She saw me
‘What?’
—She seemed extremely surprised and immediately ran away Then she covered her eyes with both hands and shi+vered in a crouched position It was pretty cute
This irl could see spirits
‘Perhaps’ Chi-Woo felt a strange sense of empathy They were both people who could see spirits Did she have to live a peculiar and tiring life like him? ‘…No, it’s too early to jump to conclusions’ Chi-Woo shook his head He had too little infor that was clear was that the girl no longer tried to run away but instead hovered around him There was definitely a reason for her actions—a reason that the girl couldn’t say out loud
Knock, knock Chi-Woo heard the sound of soirl flinched, and her eyes flashed open
Chi-Woo shouted while doing push-ups, “Come in—!”
The door opened “Please excuse me—?” A lady with ivory hair cahtly widened
“…Ah” Chi-Woo wiped the sweat off his body with a cloth and realized his ht about it, he had taken off his shi+rt to train
Chi-Woo asked for Noel Freya’s understanding, and after excusing himself, he dressed hiirl hid herself, but he wasn’t worried about her; she would probably creep out again after Noel Freya left
Meanwhile, Noel narrowed her eyes be a priest, a rare breed a heroes, she was even more famous as a devoted follower and an extreme fan of Choi Chi-Hyun Normally, she wouldn’t even faze when she saw other men naked, but…
‘He really has a certain charm’ Chi-Woo’s naked body was still vivid in her h it was only for a brief ht that he looked beautiful and wanted to seecrazy!’ Noel beat herself up ruthlessly in her e to confess her sin and ask for forgiveness Even though she didn’t show any reaction outside, she was screa an aesthetic appreciation for Chi-Woo’s ability, Golden Ratio With no knowledge of the ability he possessed, however, Noel Freya continued to feel a strange sense of nervousness around hihs, Noel Freya said, “I’ I need to tell you” She spoke in a very businesslike tone “Most people are away, but I thought it would be better to first inform those who should be in the loop before others”
Chi-Woo felt burdened by her words Noel Freya was a hero who led and commanded heroes from the central base; thus, she wielded considerable influence in this place He wasn’t sure how he should react or feel that Noel Freya considered him as one of ‘those who should be in the loop before others’ However, Chi-Woo’s worries disappeared as soon as he heard her next words
“Sir Chi-Hyun ca cae, but… What did you say?” Noel Freya stopped talking and narrowed one eye “Hyung?”
“Ah, no” He made a mistake Chi-Woo licked his lip and quickly said, “Truthfully, I respect him so much that he feels like an older brother to look up to I’hed sheepishly
Noel Freya looked at hi, ‘As expected, no wonder’ Then she said, “I fully understand your ad him older brother? That crossed a line” She slammed her hand on the desk and rebuked him “Even I, as a loyal follower, make sure to always call him Sir Chi-Hyun He isn’t someone who keeps people close”
“Oh, I see”
“Yes He’s not the type of person who enjoys people praising hi famous, either If you think he’s like heroes from the Ho Lactea, Afrilith, or Mariaju fa”
“Huh?”
“Huely re about Ho Lactea a couple of times, but ere the other ones?
Noel Freya stared at hi me as if you don’t know those families”
“Ah, yes I don’t really know any except for the Choi fa about the She covered hercute “If you werea joke to show your sincere respect towards Sir Chi-Hyun—that was great It was a pretty good joke”
Chi-Woo blinked; Noel Freya’s htened
Noel continued, “But your words have ant Afriliths, or the Eustitias who live for the sake of showing off—”
As she continued, though, Chi-Woo caht have misread her mood
“Well, I heard that the Nahlas and Mariajus are better, but anyway, no reat and famous they are, they’re merely small fries compared to the Choi family They’re not even competition Hmph”
Chi-Woo smiled thinly as Noel Freya chatted away It seeer Every time he saw her, he couldn’t help but wonder how she would react if he revealed that Chi-Hyun was his brother, that they were closely related by blood Nevertheless, she hadn’t said anything wrong despite her being a stalker fan of Chi-Hyun
The Choi family from Earth had always been veiled in htly different He was not a person who tolerated injustice and did not hesitate to take on a challenge that other people nored In fact, all of the aforementioned families have been destroyed or humiliated in one way or another by Chi-Hyun In particular, it still h to think about how Chi-Hyun had immediately rejected a thinly veiled proposal for a politicalto boast about but its noble pedigree After excitedly criticizing the other faained her senses
“Ah, I’ve talked too much I’ot to the point, “He left because there was so suspicious about the De he needed to do when he ca he needed to do when he returned to the capital? Chi-Woo tilted his head
“The eight recruits”
Chi-Woo narrowed his eyes immediately It made sense that there would be another wave of recruits since he himself had been part of the seventh recruits In fact, it was about time for new recruits to come The important part was that all the recruits so far had been selected by the prophecy Some of the recruits had also been selected for a specific purpose
After a short pause, Noel Freya continued, “But—”
