I Don't Want This Reincarnation [2]

201

"Welcome, Deputy Master Ha Tae-heon. I have been waiting for you."

"......"

Ha Tae-heon frowned slightly as he faced the blunt face of the opponent whose expression wasn't reflected at all.

His current location was the main hall of the Requiem Guild. Ha Tae-heon, who entered the entrance, was greeted by a man with a gloomy impression with two bodyguards behind him.

'His name... did they say Woo Seo-hyuk?'

The most capable secretary of Requiem and Cheon Sa-yeon's right-hand man. Today was their first proper meeting since the Gangnam incident.

"I was told the purpose of the visit. I will guide you right away."

Woo Seo-hyuk moved to the elevator dedicated to officials at the end of the hallway on the right, not the central elevator. Following him quietly, Ha Tae-heon recalled what had happened earlier.

Additional compensation was confirmed for the families of the bereaved family who died in the gate attack and a related meeting was held. Ha Tae-heon, who attended on behalf of Lee Joo-ha, who had an outside schedule, noticed the phone call only after the meeting was over.

Since he had it on silent, he would have missed it if he hadn't pulled out his cell phone from the pocket of his suit jacket at the right time. Ha Tae-heon couldn't hide his surprise when he saw the name of the number owner that appeared on the screen.

Han Yi-gyeol.

How the hell did he get in touch?

"Ha Tae-heon-ssi!"

When he answered the phone, he heard a familiar voice. He couldn't possibly not notice. It was the voice he had been missing every moment since he came back from China.

"Umm, yes. That's right."

He was disappointed by Han Yi-gyeol's decision to go to Requiem instead of himself, but he was still happier. Han Yi-gyeol was finally back. To Korea.

"If it's okay with you... could you come to the Requiem Guild?"

Of course, even so, the proposal to come to Requiem was quite surprising. Rather than being upset, he was curious as to why. There was no way he could have said something like that for nothing.

'No way...'

Come to think of it, Korea was full of people who were aiming for Han Yi-gyeol in the first place. Did something happen? It was at that moment when Ha Tae-heon frowned when he remembered the Praus Cult.

"Continue here."

"......"

Suddenly, Cheon Sa-yeon's voice interrupted. Hearing this, Ha Tae-heon's sharp eyebrows twitched unpleasantly.

"Let go. I need to finish the call... hello? Ha Tae-heon-ssi?"

The questions that had risen to the tip of his chin disappeared in an instant. Ha Tae-heon spat out the answer that he would go without accepting anything.

"Pardon? Hold on a second, Ha Tae-heon-ssi. It's not that..."

He felt sorry for Han Yi-gyeol, who was bewildered, but in order to leave immediately, he had to end the call and leave right away. They would see each other soon anyway, so they could talk again then. So Ha Tae-heon left Roheon and headed for Requiem.

"Where is Talented Han Yi-gyeol?"

When Ha Tae-heon, who got on the elevator, asked a question, Woo Seo-hyuk opened his mouth while pressing the 23rd-floor button.
