"And, this is a different story..."

Lee Joo-ha, who did not leave after saying goodbye, looked around, lowered her voice, and opened her mouth again.

"That's what Tae-heon said. You wouldn't be the kind of person who sells information to the Requiem Master."

"...yes?"

What does this mean?

I frowned at the sudden remark. Selling information? From me to Cheon Sa-yeon?

"Actually, I used to doubt you before. I thought you were going to give Tae-heon an SS-class coat and wield it as a weakness. So when I heard that the Master Cheon Sa-yeon threatened Tae-heon with an SS-class coat, I was very angry."

"......"

It was difficult to properly understand what Lee Joo-ha was saying. A cold aura fell into the corner of my heart.

"However... Tae-heon said to me in the underground of the gate earlier. He doesn't think you are like the kind of person who would do such a cowardly thing. I'll trust you once. If the owner of the coat says so, and I doubt it, what will I do? It is true that I owe you my life."

As if she spit out her tight feelings, Lee Joo-ha smiled satisfactorily and held out her hand.

"Anyway, let's bury the unpleasant incidents for now. I'll also put aside my stupid thoughts and get to know you properly."

"...thank you for saying that."

Hiding my confused mind, I forcibly pulled up the corners of my mouth and shook her hand with mine.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your rest. I'll get going now. Get treatment for your injuries."

Lee Joo-ha turned her back with her relieved face. Looking at her back as Lee Joo-ha was leaving, I closed my eyes tightly.

'Cheon Sa-yeon... threatened? To Ha Tae-heon?'

With the SS-class coat that I got for him?

Furious anger engulfed my chest and all sorts of negative emotions running through my head. I lowered my head and covered my eyes with my cold hand. Something hot was gurgling and rising out of my throat.

'Therefore...'

Therefore Ha Tae-heon looked at me like that. From the day I visited Roheon Guild for mercenary work, I remembered the attitude of Ha Tae-heon, who was particularly cold and confused me.

"Ha, shit..."

I spit out a swear word with a disappointing smile, biting my lip painfully.

I knew. Cheon Sa-yeon is such a bastard. It was very annoying that the emotions that never calmed down.

I certainly knew that if it was for his own benefit, he was a piece of garbage that would leave without guilt for using everything around him.

It was like that...

"Han Yi-gyeol?"

I slowly lowered my hand and raised my head to look ahead. I saw Cheon Sa-yeon standing looking at me with his suit jacket on his arm. When I saw that face, all of a sudden, all of this felt so ridiculous.

"What's wrong? Where does it hurt more..."

"Don't come."

I stopped him as he came closer. Cheon Sa-yeon narrowed his eyes at my cold gaze. A sharper atmosphere than ever before fell between me and Cheon Sa-yeon.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who looked around slowly, opened his mouth in an unfavourable voice.

"In between those moments..."
