Guide Me If You Dare Chapter 216: CRAZY BASTARD

That was Ryu Sungbin’s statent while playing a video that showed Noh Yuno boarding a private plane with masked individuals.

The quality of the video was shitty.

But Ki Gayoon could tell.

That little shit...

Bullshit.

Ryu Sungbin lied with a straight face.

Lee Sarang wasn’t in any dungeon.

Gayoon would know since he was the one who sent Lee Sarang to Japan.

Another bullshit.

Noh Yuno never lied about his class— it was Moon Noa, then the current President, who decided to keep his class a secret from the general public.

It seed like Ryu Sungbin was working hard to ruin Noh Yuno’s reputation, huh?

Gayoon raised an eyebrow.

Gayoon practically growled at the screen. "This bastard..."

Hmm?

Gayoon had a bad feeling when Ryu Sungbin looked straight in the cara with a desperate look on his face.

Of course, he knew it was a fake expression.

But the general public wouldn’t know that since Ryu Sungbin was a good actor.

BANG!

The television exploded after Gayoon used his Mana to destroy it.

"You’re going to pay for my poor TV, you rascal."

It was Kwak Hakjae— the president of the Esper Association.

Right now, Gayoon was in Kwak Hakjae’s private office.

But just because he was there didn’t an he had stopped looking for Noh Yuno. Every single person under his command was already dispatched to search for that punk.

Unfortunately, there are things only I can do, so I’m stuck here.

"It seems like Ryu Sungbin has completely taken over the governnt," Kwak Hakjae said, leaning against the backseat of his chair. "He made Noh Yuno a traitor, and he’s trying to turn on the general public against you, Gayoon-ah. Moreover, he also turned the Rogue Clan into public enemy #1."

"Well, the Rogue Clan kidnapped Bambi on live broadcast, so that’s actually on them," Gayoon said, and then he clicked his tongue. "But that bastard Ryu Sungbin accused Noh Yuno of commissioning the Rogue Clan to kidnap Bambi, and that’s the problem."

"You should also worry about your position," Kwak Hakjae said while shaking his head. "Ryu Sungbin publicly called you out for protecting Noh Yuno. When he said he’d like you to cooperate, he probably ans he wants to negotiate. He’ll definitely ask you to free Bambi in return of helping you clear the allegations against you."

Gayoon scoffed. "I’ll never negotiate with that bastard."

"I wonder if he’s being brazen because the Awakened World Organization’s representatives are coming? After all, if the Awakened World Organization sides with Ryu Sungbin, then it’s over for us. The Awakened World Organization has the power to choose a country’s leader in a country with a civil war, after all."

Kwak Hakjae said, and then he paused before giving Gayoon a knowing look.

"We’re not officially in a civil war yet, but you won’t let Ryu Sungbin run this country. Right?"

"I’d rather betray the country than let Ryu Sungbin beco the new President."

"To be fair, you’re ready to betray the country for Noh Yuno whether Ryu Sungbin becos our new leader or not."

Damn right.

"Don’t you feel the sa, Hyung-nim?"

"It’s been a while since you addressed politely, you rascal."

"Well, that’s the least thing I could do for the person who’s going to sacrifice himself for the greater good."

"By the "greater good," do you an the fact that I agreed to your reckless plan?"

"Hyung-nim, keeping sane is the sa as saving the country," Gayoon said, tapping his fingers on the table. "I’m only holding back my rage because I won’t find Noh Yuno is I lose my mind. But that doesn’t an I’m calm. So, you made the right choice when you agreed to my plan. I was actually ready to force you to do my bidding. I’m glad you’re quick-witted."

"I’m just scared of your violence, you crazy bastard."

Gayoon just shrugged unapologetically.

"Let’s start," Kwak Hakjae said, standing up while stretching his arms. "We have to finish our preparations before the Awakened World Organization representatives arrive."

"BOSS OPPA, I’m here."

Ki Gayoon raised an eyebrow at Yu Minju.

Teal, short hair.

Neon green tracksuit that should be illegal.

This was Yu Minju— the Esper who would only co out of her "cave" if absolutely necessary.

"Yu Minju, your glow-in-the-dark tracksuit is urging to commit arson."

"Leave my outfit alone, Boss Oppa," Yu Minju complained, and then she stood in front of his desk with her hands behind her back. After that, she bowed in apology. "I’m sorry, I failed again. I found the plane that was shown in the video in Jeju Island, but the trace ends there. Even after checking all the caras in the area, I found nothing."

Yes, that was the reason why Yu Minju finally ca out— she was the person in charge of looking for Noh Yuno.

"According to my investigation, I strongly believe that the plane landed empty."

Gayoon leaned against his chair, crossing his arms over his chest. "Are you saying that Noh Yuno and his "siblings" disappeared while the plane was in mid-air?"

"Yes, Boss Oppa."

Oh.

I was just being sarcastic, but I was right?

"They disappeared mid-air," Yu Minju said firmly. "Boss Oppa, that plane was a door to a dungeon— one similar to Beom-seok, your private dungeon."

Ah, fuck it.

***

RYU SUNGBIN didn’t want to admit it, but the presence of the official #1 Esper in the world made him quite nervous.

17.

It was a strange na.

But the owner of the na had a baby face, making him look younger than his actual age.

17 was a man with silver hair and red eyes.

Espers’ eyes usually turn red when they’re using their powers or when they’re about to go on a Rampage— but 17’s eye color seem to have changed permanently.

That was why 17 wore a pair of dark sunglasses.

Civilians get scared when they see Espers with red eyes, after all.

"Gayoon looks calr than I expected."

17 spoke in fluent English while looking ahead.

Ryu Sungbin also looked in the sa direction.

Ki Gayoon and Kwak Hakjae were waiting for them in the lobby of the Esper Association Building.

They decided to hold the eting there.

Moreover, 17 and the two representatives of the Awakened World Organization wanted to see the ’System’s Heart’ in person.

And the System Heart was the huge television behind Ki Gayoon...

Wait, what is that bastard doing?

Ryu Sungbin was confused when Ki Gayoon suddenly placed his hand on the System’s Heart, and then...

BANG!

The ground shook hard when Ki Gayoon attacked the System’s Heart with a huge amount of Mana as if he were trying to destroy it.

Ryu Sungbin was shocked beyond words.

The System’s Heart was the lifeline of every Esper in the world.

And Ki Gayoon made it explode?

"You crazy bastard!"
