Even after re-checking, that was all Kim San’s last contact. Gido Hae squinted, checked Kim San’s exact location and raised his eyebrows.

Kim San has been staying in front of the government complex for a long time. When he immediately sent someone to find out, he heard an unexpected report that he was talking to an elderly couple protesting in front of the complex.

Even though it was Kim San, he was so friendly. Gido Hae did a background check, but the old couple were just ordinary people. Since both were from outside the city, he looked into them in detail, but they were not exactly related to Kim San.

He suspected that they were spied planted by his father, but it had been more than five years since the elderly couple protested there. It was too long for them to be a deliberate spy.

Thinking about making a phone call right away, Gido Hae kept an eye on Kim San’s location, expressed as a sparkly dot. Rather than trying to hide something, it was more likely that he simply forgot to contact him. Gido Hae felt an unpleasant feeling sweeping over him.

Despite being reminded to do so, Kim San did not even carry a cell phone. In particular, when moving from one place to another, he doesn’t bother updating, as if thinking there was no reason to do so. In the end, when he started texting irregularly, it was only when Kim San started taking his phone.

Kim San’s movement, which was confirmed as such, was quite spectacular. If there’s a break in his schedule, he’s always looking for food around the center like a squirrel. There were so many places Kim San stopped by that he needed to double his surveillance.

Gido Hae went to Kim San’s place on purpose the past few days. Also, he uncharacteristically gave one gift every day.

He wanted to keep him in the accommodation rather than have him go around or interact with other media, but it was more effective than he thought. In this regard, it had the side effect of making him talk more.

Gido Hae pretended they crossed a path a few times, and after that, he waited for him in my his way in the evening, so it was less annoying in the long period.

Today… What is it?

[What are you doing?]

Half impulsively, Gido Hae sent a text message to Kim San. This was also an action that had become very common recently. Since he is not the type to leisurely exchange text messages with others, it was always a hassle.

It wasn’t until Gido Hae stared at the cell phone screen for a long time that he got a reply from Kim San.

[I’m out hanging here!]

“…….”

Again, he frowned when he looked at texts with a lot of typos. It seems difficult to make typos on purpose every time, but his texting skills have not improved at all.

Kim San definitely checks it right away when he sends a text, but the reply takes a very long time. It was amazing to send such a messy text even after taking that time. Kim San had a knack for squeezing Gido Hae’s patience in many ways.

Anyway, according to what he deciphered, it seemed that he was walking outside in the meantime. Among them, visiting the elderly couple was a matter that needed to be taken into consideration. Gido Hae has to make sure he won’t have anyone to rely on in the city.

He would have to do a background check on the two again first.

Park Joo-Hoon, Kim San’s roommate, was also intended to be sent back to another city. He thought it was a little too much for someone who had only known Kim San for a few weeks, but it was necessary given that Kim San refused Gido Hae’s visit on the day Park Joo-Hoon returned.

Come to think of it, he would have to check the wiretap he installed. Obviously, Park Joo-Hoon seems to have the personality to talk about useless things.

As he pondered the existence of Park Joo-Hoon, which was more intrusive than expected, heavy steps rang through the forest.

“Hey, are you also an S-Class?”

Gido Hae, who already sensed that someone was approaching, only turned his eyes and looked at the person. It was one of the A-Class Esper who was sent together to deal with this monster.

Also, he was the first person to take charge of this monster.

“You’re such an idiot that you miss a monster of this size.”

He deliberately stepped on the monster’s body and approached Gido Hae The sound of the carcass being torn to shreds made the forest dirty. The long footprints made of blood stains were stretched to Gido Hae.

For some reason, he didn’t like that smiling face. He finally understood the guy’s strange attitude while chasing the monster.

From the beginning, he let the monster go on purpose.

“You were told to deliver.”

Indeed, he came two steps ahead and opened his mouth with a nonchalant attitude. It was a cryptic message, but Gido Hae understood at once. That he’s the one his father sent.

Obviously, until last week, there was no report that he was an Esper who joined his father’s camp, but in the meantime, he must have been bought or originally planted. Either way, it seems that he used this time to call Gido Hae alone. He rarely goes around without Esper Lee Jae-Chul.

He had the same attitude expecting he would listen if he talked. Is his father’s eyes on judging people failing? It would be nice if he could get dementia like that.

The situation became very annoying. The longer he had to trek up the mountain, the more he decided to kill the guy he missed the first time.

There was no reason to endure when they already laid it out like this.

“Ah my legs!”

Although he had the audacity to appear in Gido Hae’s sight, he fell to the ground without any defense, clutching one of his twisted legs.

He kindly approached and stepped on the collapsed man’s head. Gido Hae twisted his fingers one by one with the use of his telekinesis whenever the man showed signs of struggling.

Only then did he wriggle with his head firmly on the ground. Gido Hae felt like talking to him after seeing him covered in the monster’s dirty body.

“Now talk.”

Did he not predict this situation at all? He did not hide his expression of shame. Thanks to this, Gido Hae could see that his father had real dementia or that he was a disposable chess piece.

Somehow he thought the way he called him out was crude.

“Cough, cough…….- Your guide looks so naive.”

“…….”

The message that he barely uttered while spitting the monster’s blood that unexpectedly entered his mouth.

To show that he understood well, Gido Hae trampled his head several more times and threw him in the monster’s body. He thought he had such a hobby because he stepped on the monster’s body, but surprisingly, he hated it and rolled on the floor.

Soon, Gido Hae, who lost interest, wiped his dirty shoes one after another on the back of the man.

“Is that all you have to say?”

“That……that is what he said.”

“Is that so?”

Like his father, he was trying to sway people. Gido Hae pretended as if he hadn’t heard anything, but then he kicked the guy in the head and knocked him out.

Since Gido Hae dealt with him this long, his father would think he found the right weakness. The effect of shaking Kim San like a bait was being proven steadily.

City B was built in the area that would have been called Busan in the past. It was the area where the most monsters appeared because there were a lot of people like City A. Likewise, the huge city, which was on the verge of destruction, was rebuilt with the appearance of Esper.

Originally, City A was his father’s district. His house, where Gido Hae was raised when he was young, was also originally here. It was all thanks to Gido Hae that his father was pushed to City B.

From Gido Hae’s perspective, it is just a difference in location, but his father was obsessed with City A. Perhaps because of nostalgia for the past, he seemed to think that protecting Korea’s greatest city is symbolic.

Even though the mansion that his father was so proud of was destroyed to commemorate independence, without leaving a single cornerstone behind.

“Ha…….”

The smell of blood everywhere, but for some reason, the smell of a damp basement stung nose. The color of the monster’s red blood was so uncomfortable that it made him feel disgusted.

However, Gido, who scattered it by just sweeping his head once, threw his gaze to the distant city A.

For the first time in a long time, he felt really dirty.

“Hmmm..….”

Gido Hyeon, who looked bored, was lost in thought as he listened to his subordinate’s report. Although it was a chess piece that was going to be thrown away, the report that came in was quite disappointing.

His son’s attitude was certainly strange. If he had received his teaching clearly, he might have held and shaken at least one young guide, but the guide’s attitude was strange.

Unless you are not a very tactless person, you’ll know that Gido Hae’s smile is a well-made mask, so the 20-year-old village boy should have been intimidated. However, Kim San’s reported attitude was not. If you listen to Chairman Cha’s side, he was not particularly strong-minded. Therefore, he had no choice but to judge that Gido Hae was obedient to the guide under the circumstances.

Because of this, Gido Hyeon squinted, frowned and threw the documents he was holding. He doesn’t know if his son is being clever or if he was really possessed by a guide or something, but he felt bad. No matter what kind of operation, it was not acceptable to show such care for a guide.

Should he teach him all over again?

“What shall we do, Mr. President?”

Hearing his subordinate’s words, Gido Hae narrowed his eyes and sorted out the situation. It’s a little early, but it’s better to secure Kim San right away. Before his beloved son gets in trouble for nothing.

There happened to be a good chess piece nearby.

“Schedule an appointment with Chairman Cha.”

“Yes, sir.”

Gido Hyeon’s dark eyes turned towards City B.
