The hall inside the gate, where the statue of the goddess stood in the centre, was much bigger and wider than what I saw as I passed by.

Walking in front of the huge statue, I carefully used my ability and flew up. I saw the guild members resting, from over the goddess statue, looked small.

"If you look at it this way, it's just an ordinary statue, but..."

Was the horror I felt earlier was due to my mood? The goddess statue carved out of marble was delicately sculpted down to every hair, giving it a lively feeling as if it were alive.

I kept snooping around the statue like a fly hovering around a person, but I didn't find anything particularly special.

"Umm..."

I guess it was an illusion. It's ridiculous to keep doubting a normal statue. I sighed, turned off my ability and went downstairs.

"Huh?"

Something round was trampled on the floor on the right side of the statue. When I leaned down and looked closely, I saw a blue jewel. It looked just like the jewel that was embedded in the door. Why is this here?

Geugeuk.

At that moment, a strange sound was heard from somewhere. I frowned and looked around, but there was no problem.

'Did I hear it wrong?'

I scratched the back of my head for nothing, leaving the goddess statue behind and moved.

"Yi-gyeol-ssi! Where have you been? I've been looking for you for a while."

"Yes?"

When I appeared, Kim Soo-hwan started talking to me as if he was waiting.

"I made some simple soup. It's mealtime. But there's nothing left now..."

"Oh, I'm fine."

I don't really feel hungry at all. It didn't matter that it wasn't a big deal to skip a meal. I smiled at Kim Soo-hwan, who was sorry and said not to worry about it, but something flew away from the other side.

"Ah."

Reflexively I accepted. It was a wrapped sandwich.

"Eat it."

Ha Tae-heon, who threw the sandwich at me, said in a hard voice. It's really good. I guess I just made you worry.

"That's right, Yi-gyeol-ssi. If you're hungry later, it's hard to keep up. And Yi-gyeol-ssi needs to eat some. You're too skinny."

Kim Soo-hwan, who looked at Ha Tae-heon with sparkling eyes, nagged with a stern expression.

"Is that so?"

"Yes. Look, your wrist. I can hold it all in one hand."

Kim Soo-hwan grabbed my wrist and chattered. Isn't the wrist the part that can be held in one hand?

'Han Yi-gyeol doesn't look good.'

He is too skinny. For a man, his skin is too white. Should I go to the beach in summer and burn it on purpose?

"Kim Soo-hwan-ssi."

I just nodded my head to Kim Soo-hwan's words while thinking of something else, but Ha Tae-heon interrupted with a cold voice.

"Aren't you too rude? Let go of your hand."

"Huh, yes! I'm sorry. Sorry, Yi-gyeol-ssi."

Kim Soo-hwan was embarrassed by the chilling point that came to the bone and released my wrist. At the same time, I was perplexed.
