CHAPTER 240: MEMORY SYNCHRONIZATION (2)

YIHUN felt like throwing up.

Hence, he washed his face with cold water in the bathroom.

When he lifted his head, he saw his annoying reflection in the mirror.

He had dyed his hair mint green, but it only made his face appear paler. It wasn’t a pretty sight because his normal complexion already made him look like a dying Victorian child.

But, now, he looked worse.

I look like the ghost of a Victorian child who died of malnutrition.

Pale skin.

Sunken eyes.

Body so thin he would have been called a twink if he were in a BL novel.

Needless to say, Yihun hated how he looked now.

But he also didn’t have the appetite to eat after all the things that he had gone through for the past weeks.

Jacob, that bastard, kept bullying him physically.

He was forced to see hundreds of young E-Class Guides dead.

And, worst of all so far, he was sexually assaulted by Charles Kang.

Fortunately, no penetration happened.

But, still, he was violated— just like most Guides were.

I’m going to kill that old bastard soon.

After Yihun calmed down a little, he went out of the bathroom.

The bathroom was connected to his bedroom, so he was grateful that he could have a little privacy.

Just a little since there are hidden cameras in this room.

Since he had nothing else to do for that day, he went straight to his work desk.

He opened his sketchbook and started drawing.

Well, at least, that was what he wanted them to see.

To be fair, Yihun was really drawing— but that wasn’t the only thing he was doing.

He had already memorized the placement of the hidden cameras, so he knew nothing was capturing his face.

The most the cameras could see was his back and his sketchbook.

Whoever was watching him behind the cameras couldn’t see that his eyes were glowing red.

Yihun was using his ability, but he was only using a very small amount of Mana.

And that was enough for his little experiment.

So, this is how to make a Guide’s heart stop.

He drew a very detailed image of a human heart embedded by what Awakened People referred to as the ’Core.’

The Core looked like a crystal gem half the size of the owner’s fist.

But it grows big once you take it out of the heart.

Hmm.

To be honest, Yihun didn’t know how but after seeing hundreds of Cores because Charles Kang taught him how to farm them from dead Guides, he started seeing the flow of Mana inside the Cores.

That was how he gained a new ability.

I should use it later.

It was either to kill or be killed anyway.

"... Guide Moon Noa-nim is back in Korea..."

Hmm?

Yihun lifted his head and listened to the radio.

He wasn’t allowed to watch TV or use his smartphone.

But he was allowed to listen to the radio. Of course, the channels were filtered. The Lab chose carefully what he was allowed to know about the outside world.

Moon Noa, huh?

Every person in South Korea knew who Moon Noa was.

Before the apocalypse, he was known as a chaebol.

After the apocalypse, Moon Noa became known worldwide as the first S-Class Guide to ever awaken.

He’s the idol of all Guides.

Hmm.

Yihun leaned against his chair.

A chaebol, huh?

He remembered something important.

Did my legal guardians mention before that they are now working for Moon Noa-ssi?

***

"HURRY UP, Noh Yihun."

Yihun rolled his eyes, and then he started to write slower than faster.

Of course, that annoyed the Guide who was watching him.

To be honest, he didn’t know the Guide’s name because he stopped remembering the faces and names of his colleagues who would just die soon anyway.

"Don’t test my patience, Noh Yihun."

Yihun ignored the bastard and just kept writing the letter as slowly as possible.

Right now, he was in a room that was no different from an interrogation room.

He was there to receive the stipend that he was entitled to.

During the past months, he didn’t bother to receive the money in person. He just trusted Yosef Lee— the one who recruited him— to continue sending the money to his guardians.

However, this time, he needed to send a letter.

To be exact, it was a call for help.

"Noh Yihun, you bastard! You’re writing an SOS letter!"

That, he was.

Yihun used the language that only E-Class Guides could understand, hence the person checking the content of his letter immediately realized that he was writing a call for help.

It was on purpose.

Moon Noa-ssi is an eccentric person— you have to show him something he doesn’t understand to pique his interest.

"You really need to know your place!"

When the bastard tried to slap Yihun, he got up from his seat and grabbed the opponent’s wrist— and then he placed his other hand on the scumbag’s chest.

His eyes glowed red as he injected his own Mana directly into the enemy’s heart.

Then straight to the bastard’s Core.

And, just like that, the opponent’s heart stopped beating— the bastard’s Ci.

"Goodbye."

The bastard couldn’t even utter a word and just dropped dead— his eyes closed and never opening again.

Haaah.

Yihun’s breath started to become unstable.

He just killed a person, so his body was shaking.

However, he still had something important to do.

He grabbed the transparent box on the table and used the dead Guide’s fingerprints and remaining Mana to open the lid.

As soon as the lid opened, Yihun immediately put the envelope inside.

Then he watched as the envelope that contained the money and the letter for his guardians disappear from inside the box.

I did it.

The transparent box was actually an Item that could deliver small items directly to the address that had been input in there. But, of course, the transparent box would only get activated if the authorized person operated it.

Hence, Yihun killed the Guide first before using his fingerprints and Mana to activate the Item’s function.

"Noh Yihun, what did you do this time?"

Heh.

Yihun smirked when Charles Kang, Yosef Lee, and Jacob all entered the room with a shocked look on their faces.

According to their expressions, it was clear that they saw what he did.

The room is filled with surveillance cameras, after all.

"Apparently, I’m really the perfect Guide," Yihun said bitterly, raising his hand. "I can kill Guides by simply injecting my Mana straight into their Cores."
