“Eh? Urek-san isn’t coming because Yunuen-san is here?” Hearing the new information, Evolet stared at Hachuling incredulously. Yunuen’s expression was blank as he remembered what he did to Urek. The High Ranker began to sweat nervously and looked away as Evolet glanced at him suspiciously.

Having finished telling her, Hachuling shrugged mischievously at the other bluenette before walking away leisurely. The Wolhaiksong core members were now somewhat well acquainted with Yunuen after he dropped by to visit Urek after the Zygaena incident. No one knows exactly what he did, but Urek was traumatized by it and is not willing to come within 100 meters of Yunuen or a whole Floor to be frank. The poor man now has "Yunuenophobia" to say the least. Yunuen was convinced this was Urek’s revenge against him.

Evolet stood in front of him, blankly staring into the taller man’s teal eyes. Despite her shorter stature, the purplette looked plenty menacing to Yunuen. He immediately sat down on the floor respectfully in seiza, hands folded on his lap with lips pressed thin as Evolet raised an eyebrow at him. “So, Yunuen-san. Mind telling me what exactly did you do to the 4th strongest man in the Tower?”

“But Little One— He hurted you first so I—”

“And I didn’t ask for your reason nor excuses, Yunuen-san. I asked what you did to Urek-san. Hachuling-san said Urek-san wouldn’t take a single step to any Floor you’re in for goodness sake—”

Khun sipped his black coffee calmly as he watched Yunuen getting lectured by Evolet, the High Ranker looking pitifully small at the scolding. The rest of the teams were practically huddling behind him to look at the ensuing drama, using him as a man-shield. It was yet again a peaceful normal day.

Serene as it was, they still had issues to be solved. Khun had set his eyes on FUG and Rachel matters, knowing he couldn’t let them off after how they tried to set him and his team up. Not to mention their biggest problem on hand is Horyang who has yet to regain his consciousness. They were aware that in order to wake Horyang up, finding Cassano and getting Horyang's part of the devil was crucial.

Some of them had considered asking Emily of Cassano's whereabouts, but Emily hasn't been active for days and neither Evolet or Beta recommended them to use the app anymore. Yet if Evolet made a move to gather information on Rachel and Cassano's whereabouts, FUG will focus their attention on the team. Which brought them to a certain Red Witch who scoffed mockingly at them.

Well, Evolet was supposed to be in the room too but Yunuen had suddenly called her out saying that they needed to speak about something. As a result only Bam, Khun, Rak, and Wangnan were in the room to meet Hwaryun. The redhead was fully aware of their intentions, she wasn't a talented Guide for nothing after all.

She says she had no reason to help them, yet she knew of the path she was going to guide them to. It was all part of the plan after all, ever since the very beginning she guided her god to FUG's path of bloodshed down till the last point of how she showed his friends the path to get him back from FUG. This was the path she deemed to be best in order to make Jue Viole Grace her god. Though then again the future is never set in stone, not to mention there were too many… irregular factors in each path. Honestly, being a Guide is a major headache.

That being said, Khun certainly knew how to read someone. He cut straight to the point, telling Hwaryun that she can join them so long as she showed them the path. She swiftly took him up on that offer, having been aiming it from the start. Her smirk was evident as she speaks of the Hell Train where they would meet Cassano, and inevitably Rachel again. How she was looking forward to all of this unfolding and Evolet's reaction to this.
