There was a bit of pang forming around the slender fingers of Seonghwa as he continue to climb upwards, still with his injured parts.

Like what was mentioned before, it was Seonghwa's decision to go back to EDEN instead of doing other things than that. And the obviousness is clearly to be seen as he looked like a drunk fool thinking that it'll be his only choice and hurried to go strive for it even though he had lots of time to ponder.

It was quiet.

Of course, he expected it to be quiet as there was no dawn and ray of sun to greet everyone, they are sounding asleep at this hour.

He remembers the path that the crew of EDEN chose to walk through going back and forth from their jail to the desired place of the other pirates.

More ways, more paths, more hallways.

There it is.

The gloomy office of EDEN, the unknown and infamous captain of a stardust ship.

It was indeed gloomy and surrounded by a dark, tiring aura, but it was still, surprisingly, glowing with light.

Yonghwan or EDEN is still awake.

Seonghwa was super brave to go and think about slamming the door open to say to the sleeping EDEN that he wanted another chance and return the reputation he shamelessly snatched away from Seonghwa.

But, EDEN is not asleep.

He's fully awake.

But would he really have the courage to shout and threaten EDEN when he can't think about a better plan?

Never thought so...

He focused his strength and braveness at the tips of his fingers to grab the knob of the door to open it.

Tremble.

Tremble.

His fingers won't stay still to relax.

He's scared.

Just grab it!

He can't.

Come on, it's simple!

It's not.

Stop acting like a scaredy-cat!

He kept being a coward.

I need to do this for the crew...

Really?

I need to do this... for myself...

Is that really the purpose?

Yes.

Wait, what—

I will do it!

He grabs the knob to open it wide like a book with lots of knowledge and opportunity to come back anywhere, anytime. And—

'Thud'

Oh, it's locked.

.

.

.

And I broke the handle.

He could feel the heat radiating on his face as the blood rushes to cover his face in embarrassment. The door was open but soon as he pull it, it abruptly stopped.

I am doomed.

"Who is that?"

I am doomed.
