Yoo Yeonha called Chae Nayun and asked if what Kim Hajin said was true. Chae Nayun carefully explained what happened the day before, and it was exactly as Kim Hajin said. In fact, Chae Nayun went so far as to make a definitive claim.
"There's no way Kim Hajin is a Djinn", she said.
The meeting was disbanded afterwards. Kim Hajin stomped out of the room, while Kim Suho and Yi Yeonghan chased after him.
Once the short yet fierce disturbance passed by, room 303 became silent. The three remaining people didn't speak. In the midst of the silence, Yoo Yeonha saw Kim Horak massaging his right shoulder.
"...Does it hurt?"
"N-No, I'm fine."
"That was your Gift, right?"
Many cadets already knew about Kim Horak's Gift. That was how straightforward it was.
A simple and brute Gift that instantly amplified his body's explosive and destructive power. This easy-to-understand Gift was one of the strongest Gifts for martial arts.
But Kim Hajin had dodged his attack easily. His movement wasn't flashy or nimble in any way. Almost as though he simply tripped, he had used a concise movement to dodge Kim Horak, whose Gift was specialized for martial arts.
"..."
Kim Horak dodged Yoo Yeonha's gaze. He wasn't feeling sorry about wrongfully accusing Kim Hajin. He was only embarrassed that his attack had been so easily dodged.
"Ehew."
Yoo Yeonha sighed and glanced at Shin Jonghak. For a while, he was only staring at his smartwatch. Was he messaging Chae Nayun? That's what Yoo Yeonha worried about.
"Jonghak, what are you up to?"
Yoo Yeonha approached him with an affectionate smile. Shin Jonghak answered without bothering to give Yoo Yeonha a glance.
"I'm looking to see if there's more of an item I bought."
"Item?"
"Yeah, I bought something."
"What did you buy~?"
Yoo Yeonha pulled on Shin Jonghak's arm and acted cute in her own way.
"You don't need to know."
But Shin Jonghak pushed her away. Yoo Yeonha's face froze at his cold action.
"...Tsk. If we're done, I'm leaving."
Shin Jonghak clicked his tongue and got up. In his mind, his action was justified. The website he was looking at was the famous Violet Banquet. However, Cube's cadets were prohibited from being a member of that website. It wasn't just Violet Banquet. Owning any black market ID was enough to get a cadet expelled.
Even so, his indifferent attitude hurt Yoo Yeonha's feelings.
"Kim Horak, aren't you coming?"
"Huh? Oh, yeah."
Kim Horak, who was peeking at Yoo Yeonha's face, followed Shin Jonghak like a puppy.
Just like that, Yoo Yeonha became alone. She looked around the empty room. Suddenly, anger surged up from her heart. This wasn't the first time something like this had happened. Now, she was beginning to get upset.
'Shin Jonghak you bastard, just which part of Chae Nayun is better than me? Ehew. But what can I do, I just have to try harder.'
When Yoo Yeonha was about to chase after Shin Jonghak, her smartwatch vibrated.
