If I was going to get hit anyway, it was better to strike first.
'What's up with this guy?'
He seemed a bit different from the Kim Hyunsung I knew.
In the first place, Kim Hyunsung didn't express his emotions very well.
The only time his emotions had been on display was when he had first discovered Jung Hayan, and even that was fleeting.
'What is it?'
I began to wonder if, by any chance, he had gotten wind of what we had done to Park Hyaeyoung, but the person Kim Hyunsung was watching was neither myself nor Jung Hayan.
He was definitely staring at Jung Jinho.
It was my first time seeing him like this.
He wasn't gathering mana, but his eyes were clearly showing hostility.
His expression was one of vigilance.
His hands and legs seemed to be trembling slightly, and, above all, his facial expression seemed to be greatly restrained.
'You know this guy.'
Kim Hyunsung definitely knew Jung Jinho.
Of course, as to how he knew him, there was no way I would know.
The simplest possibility I could think of was that in the future I didn't know, the odds were high that the two of them were tangled up together in some ill-fated relationship.
Kim Hyunsung didn't have any kind of ability that would let him see that guy's status window.
Unlike me, he wasn't wary of Jung Jinho because of his disposition, Calculating Killer.
He was showing hostility and that he felt discomfort towards Jung Jinho himself, as a person.
Kim Hyunsung's careful examination of Jung Jinho took some time.
Although he had been maintaining the awkward posture of reaching out to shake hands with Kim Hyunsung the whole time, Jung Jinho continued to smile while looking at Kim Hyunsung.
If you were unaware of Jung Jinho's disposition and only saw his face, you might think that he was just a good-natured fellow.
Seeing Kim Hyunsung's slightly dazed appearance, I patted his arm and spoke.
"Hyunsung-ssi."
"Ah... I'm sorry. My name is Kim Hyunsung."
The scene of Jung Jinho and Kim Hyunsung shaking hands slightly came into view.
For some reason, that clenched fist kept catching my eyes.
'Killer... He's a killer....'
Jung Jinho's disposition, Calculating Killer.
The delicate confrontation that had taken place before Kim Hyunsung arrived.
Kim Hyunsung's reaction to Jung Jinho.
I could make several guesses.
They were inferences that could be formed based on the presumption that Jung Jinho was a psychotic killer.
The first possibility was that Jung Jinho killed Kim Hyunsung or those close to Kim Hyunsung.
The second possibility was that he had never directly encountered Jung Jinho, but he had heard rumours or stories about him.
The probability of the first idea having happened was relatively low. If Kim Hyunsung could show such self-control in the face of someone who killed him or his friends, I wouldn't call him a pushover, I'd call him a saint.
