Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 1)

Chapter 102: Old Forces (3)

"If many believe that something is real, then it will become the truth."

Ah...'

Even as we walked, Jung Hayan continued mumbling to herself, almost as if memorizing what I had told her beforehand. This only added to my worries. However, I knew she would not act upon this new information, at least, for the time being.

It was correct to think so. This, it would be best to secretly inform the people around us that we were lovers. We had been dating for a long time, after all.

However, as time passed by, Jung Hayan's expression grew darker.

Seeing as she had purposefully slowed her steps and kept tugging at my sleeve, I knew this expression meant she had discovered something she didn't like. The hand that held my sleeve seemed to have renewed strength.

After we passed by the plaza and some general stores, a large-scale guild house came into view.

'Black Swan.

It was one of the large guilds representing the Free City of Lindel, the Black Swan Guild.

"Ah..."

I had no choice but to stroke Jung Hayan's head upon seeing her gloomy disposition.

"We came here because I have something to do."

"Yeah..."

"We'll have time to date later on. Everything has been hectic these days. You understand, right?"

"Yes, Oppa."

It felt good being able to come here without having to hide from Jung Hayan. Of course, I couldn't take her in the room where Lee Jihye and I would be talking, but knowing that we were in the same building would at least give her some psychological comfort.

Though I had conversed with the Black Swans countless times before, this would be my first time visiting their guild house. As I stepped forward, the door slid open for me.

'Magic?

Probably so.

The Black Swans' place was not only better than Blue's in terms of size but also structure. I then heard a voice from the inside.

"Thank you for visiting the guild, Lee Kiyoung and... Jung Hayan."

"Ah... Yes, thank you."

"I'll make sure that you can bring her inside. This is your first time to come to the Black Swans."

Jung Hayan's expression lightened up a bit.

"That's right."

"I shall lead you to the reception room."

Our guide appeared to be calm, but upon closer assessment, he was actually very tense.

We were greeted by everyone we passed by in the lobby. However, all these people also seemed tense in our presence. I could never have received this type of VIP treatment in Blue.

'Huh.'

I understood why Hayan and I were being treated this way, and I didn't mind it at all.

"Have you already eaten?"

"Yes, we ate on the way."

"Then I will prepare tea for you. If you are uncomfortable..."

"I'll tell you right away. Is Lee Jihye already inside?"

"Yes, she's waiting for you. I'll prepare a separate room for Miss Hayan."

"Yeah. I would be grateful if you could do that."
