Guide Me If You Dare novel Chapter 280

Chapter 280: A MESSAGE

YUNO was already out of breath after arguing with Jericho for something so stupid.

To be honest, he didn’t really remember what started the ’fight.’

"We were being childish," Jericho said, and then he laughed. "It doesn’t matter who the official #1 World Ranker is anyway. It’s not like the System gives rewards for World Rankers."

"Right?" Yuno agreed, sighing. "I’m sorry for getting worked up, Hyung-nim."

"I’m sorry, too. I just take too much pride in my Esper being the #1 World Ranker." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"To be fair, both Gayoon Hyung and 17-nim are burdened by the responsibility of saving the world. So, I don’t think this is the appropriate time to decide who the #1 World Ranker truly is."

"You talk as if there will be an appropriate time for that."

"Well, once we deal with the enemies and peace returns to our new normal, then maybe Gayoon Hyung and 17-nim can have a proper duel," Yuno said, shrugging. "I mean, I’m still curious who’s the stronger one between them is."

"Oh, same here," Jericho said, and then he extended his hand to Yuno. "Let’s make Ki Gayoon and 17 fight later."

"Sure, Hyung-nim," Yuno said as he shook the other Guide’s hand. "Let’s do that."

And after making that pact (without their respective Espers’ consent)...

"H-Hyung, can we come in?"

Oh, that was Kim Jaeha’s voice.

Yuno could feel the other’s presence as well.

Kwon Hojun and the Gu Twins are also there.

"Yes, come in," Yuno said. "The barrier won’t hurt you."

After all, the barrier was designed to reject people with corrupted Mana.

Hence, the kids and the Gu Twins managed to enter the room safely.

Hmm?

Yuno knew that Kwon Hojun and Kim Jaeha had a high matching rate.

As far as he knew, the two kids weren’t able to have a proper matching rate test because of all the chaos that had happened recently.

But we don’t need a device to test their compatibility rate.

"89%," Yuno said, amazed. "You two have an 89% matching rate, kids."

Kwon Hojun and Kim Jaeha looked surprised, and then the two looked at each other.

Then the two kids suddenly blushed.

Aigoo.

Love is in the air.

"Madam, how did you know?" Gu Inkyu asked curiously. "Did you gain an ability that lets you see the matching rate of an Esper and a Guide?"

Oh, I should have been more careful.

"That’s so cool, Madam," Gu Inwoo said. "Now we have more reasons to protect you."

Aigoo.

"Why do they call you ’Madam?’" Jericho asked curiously. "It sounds like you’re the wife of a mafia... oh, right. Ki Gayoon is known for having a company that acts like a crime syndicate."

The Gu Twins glared at Jericho who just smiled ’innocently.’

Yuno was about to ask the twins to stop glaring when he heard another knock on the door.

"Madam, it’s me."

"Woonhak Hyung-nim," Yuno greeted the person whose voice he instantly recognized. "Please come in."

A moment later, the handsome Lee Woonhak entered the room.

As usual, Woonhak Hyung-nim looks stoic.

***

He’s going to work again when he hasn’t had a decent rest yet.

This stupid sly fox is calling me by that stupid pet name again...

It’s fine. Noh Yuno is with people I trust. Nothing is gonna happen.

Oh, the crybaby looks serious.

"I checked all the places in Seoul that have zombie sightings," Lee Sarang said urgently, and then she lifted her head. After that, she raised her computer tablet for all of them to see. "Look at the center of the places where zombies have been seen."

It only took a second for Ki Gayoon to realize what Lee Sarang wanted them to see. "They surround the HoneyMoon Convenience Store."

Aka Noh Yuno’s house.

"Yuyu doesn’t live on the second floor of my store anymore, but that’s still his registered address," Moon Noa said, sighing. "They’re sending a message to Yuyu, aren’t they?"

***

OH, I CAN see them.

Yuno was talking about the ’viruses’ in the air.

Osaki Shohei was still inside the medical tent, but the medical tent was inside the quarantine barrier that Lee Woonhak had made.

The air inside that shield was filled with purple like little clouds.

"Woonhak Hyung-nim, whatever happens, don’t get rid of your barrier," Yuno said nervously. "We’ll get in trouble if the viruses get out since we don’t know about them..."

He trailed off when his Status Window popped up in front of them.

[Guide Noh Yuno, the System would like you to absorb the virus in order for us to analyze what it is exactly.]

What the fuck?

Yuno let out a sigh while combing his fingers through his hair. "Am I your guinea pig?"
