Whirrr.

The top of the capsule opened, and the artificial light inside the booth pierced my eyes.

“Ugh.”

I squinted slightly as I sat up.

Swish.

A staff member approached kindly and helped me into a wheelchair.

Tap, tap, tap, tap!

The sharp sound of hurried footsteps—it was Kris. She must have watched my impressive victory.

I spread my arms wide with a bright smile to welcome her.

But Kris’s expression…

“Lee. Seul. Bi...!”@@novelbin@@

She looked furious.

Her face bore the look of someone who’d nearly had a heart attack, like the grim reaper had come for her.

“Uh-oh.”

Instinctively, I shrank back like a child about to be scolded, utterly clueless about what I’d done wrong.

“What were you thinking?”

“What do you mean?”

I pouted slightly, confused.

I’d pulled off a flawless victory in the first round. Shouldn’t she be praising me instead of getting mad?
