I Don't Want This Reincarnation [1]

12

Cheon Sa-yeon, who was standing with his back to the gate, saw me and greeted me with a smile.

"Have you been well this past week, Han Yi-gyeol?"

I twisted my lips. How have you been this past week? I really didn't want to see Cheon Sa-yeon asking such a brazen question.

I haven't taken a single step out of the room since Min Ah-rin left. No way, this crazy bastard really imprisoned me!

When I opened the door, a huge attendant blocked me from leaving, and if I broke anything, the waiting attendants rushed into the room, and the window was locked and couldn't be opened. It was the perfect confinement.

In the meantime, the meals were even more spectacular because I was served three meals a day. I'd rather be starved and let go! I grabbed the attendant and shouted that this was a crime, but they didn't blink an eye.

"Thanks to. You. I've been. Very. Well." The corners of my lips that were forcibly pulled up trembled as I gritted my teeth.

"Good for you."

"......"

I don't think I would have any other wishes if I could hit him just once. I was collecting all the world's swear words and reciting them as if I were rapping when I sensed movement next to me. Turning my head, I saw Kim Woo-jin standing there.

"Why are you here..."

"Ugh, shit. I didn't come here because I wanted to."

The way he spoke was the same as usual, but he hesitated and looked around. Cheon Sa-yeon smiled at me and Kim Woo-jin alternately.

"Kim Woo-jin said that he would participate in the gate clearing."

"Wait. Haven't you already selected all the participants?"

Why was Kim Woo-jin here all of a sudden? What difference would it make to take a C-rank who didn't even have the ability to attack an SS gate?

"It's no big deal to add one more."

"But Kim Woo-jin...!"

"Of course, I know very well that Kim Woo-jin is not suitable for combat."

"Then why did you include him?"

"Of course, there is only one reason."

There was a smile in his calm voice. Recognizing Cheon Sa-yeon's intentions, I replied, suppressing my irritation, "I understand you want to keep an eye on me, but why don't you hire another employee? Why is it Kim Woo-jin?"

"In my opinion, Kim Woo-jin is the best."

Cheon Sa-yeon smiled as he looked at Kim Woo-jin, but his eyes were surprisingly cold.

"Everything is agreed upon by the parties. The gate will open in half an hour, so it's too late to regret it now."

"Ha..."

"Master, I'm sorry to interrupt, but you have an interview scheduled."

"Then I'll see you later."

Cheon Sa-yeon neatly turned his back and walked to the place full of cameras. As Cheon Sa-yeon got closer, the cameras set off a huge amount of flashes as if they'd been waiting.

"Kim Woo-jin. What the hell were you thinking?"

As soon as Cheon Sa-yeon moved away, I immediately grabbed Kim Woo-jin's arm and pulled him towards me.

"...what do you care?"

"You don't care if you have to get on the bus to hell to continue watching me then? We still have 30 minutes left, so run away secretly."
