Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 1)

Chapter 53: Just because you are poor, it doesn't mean you're a good person (2)

I could guess how Jung Hayan and I must have seemed to them.

Jung Hayan even seemed to be pampered in skincare products because of the difference in fairness. That was how large the difference was.

However, I knew that with me in the mix, it would also seem like we were a young couple who had wandered into the slums because we were curious about it.

In the end, though, I knew that whatever prejudice was held against us, the poor would not dare to face off against us entirely. In the Free City of Lindel, wearing neat clothes meant that you were strong, powerful, and had a lot of gold.

However, it wasn't just the poor looking at us with eyes filled with hostility.

'This...'

It was not good news that Sun Hee-young was among those who looked on with disapproval. This was backed up by the fact that Kim Hyunsung was interested in her. Meanwhile, Jung Hayan had only now realized what mistake she had committed.

Sun Hee-Young eventually broke through the crowd and began to stride in front of me. I didn't know if it's an appropriate expression, but it felt like a church sister for some reason.

With long hair and big eyes, she looked like she had never before endured distress.

Sun Hee-young immediately opened her mouth before Jung Hayan could avoid thinking about dealing with this situation while evading her gaze.

"Apologize to them."

"..."

"Apologize. No one here deserves to be insulted by the likes of you."

The guild scouts immediately backed up her words. I had to laugh at this absurd situation. Of course, they would take her side.

"I don't know who you think you are, but I think you should apologize."

"I want you to cancel that rant immediately."

"Are you from the Blue Guild?"

Red Mercenaries and other large guilds were not among them. Was this really how those of the smaller clans dared to talk to us?

It was understandable for someone like Sun Hee-young to address us in this manner, but them? The audacity!

'A selfish, ambitious person.'

'Computational analyst.'

However, I knew that whoever saw this scene would think that we were the biased couple, and they were the bringers of justice. It was a situation where the good and the bad were divided - and warped.

'A mistake?'

No.

This could never be called a mistake.

I didn't know when that recruitment war had been going on and how much progress Kim Hyunsung had managed to make so far, but there were so many competitors in the first place that there was no way we could make a good recruitment offer.

Anyhow, her top priority seemed to be to help the poor. Since she was adamant about it, there seemed no way for her to even think about joining a guild.

It was in that instant that a whole new way for her to join us came to mind.

I slowly opened my mouth as I pulled the white shoulders, which seemed a little dead to this side.

"I will not withdraw the statement."

"What?"

"I said I would not withdraw."
