Chapter 88 - Words Without Legs (3)

With Kim Hajin in front of her, Yoo Yeonha was torn between fighting him or running away. Although she came into the room confident in her abilities, she didn't expect to meet such a powerful enemy from the beginning.

"...."

Kim Hajin stood still, seemingly unaware of her worry. However, his relaxed attitude made Yoo Yeonha even more nervous. She couldn't take his gaze head-on. This was the first time she had ever felt like this. It wasn't like this before....

Then suddenly, Kim Hajin raised his hand.

In truth, Kim Hajin was only trying to scratch an itch on the back of his neck.

"Stay, stay away!"

But Yoo Yeonha, who didn't know this, shouted subconsciously.

Kim Hajin stared at her silently, then slowly dropped his hand.

His gun was already in his right hand. It wasn't the Desert Eagle Yoo Yeonha gave him, but a normal cadet handgun.

However, Kim Hajin had destroyed Kim Horak's qi reinforcement even with an ordinary gun. It was precisely why he received the attention of top-ranking guilds for a while.

"...."

Kim Hajin raised his gun. Yoo Yeonha could feel beads of sweat flowing down her face.

First, she calmly examined her surroundings. Behind her was a narrow, straight hallway, making it difficult for her to escape the range of his gun. She only had two choices: fight, or be beaten.

Yoo Yeonha looked down at the whip in her hand. Then, she suddenly thought of something.

'Perhaps this is the best chance for me confirm his skills. My current estimate of his strength only comes from observation. If I fight him now, I should be able to see a glimpse of his real power....'

At the same time, she had a different thought. This time, it was more cowardly.

'If I fight Kim Hajin and lose, I'll likely be the first one to be eliminated. I don't want that to happen, but struggling for my life doesn't suit my style either. It's definitely not because I hate pain.'

After calmly weighing her options, Yoo Yeonha sighed.

Then, she opened her eyes wide as though she came to a decision.

Glaring at Kim Hajin with eyes sharper than the glare of a lynx, she swung her whip. Her whip moved fluidly like it was part of her limb, then it grabbed onto Kim Hajin's gun.

Shweeek!

In the blink of an eye, Kim Hajin's gun was snatched out of his hands.

Yoo Yeonha stared blankly at the gun that fell into her hand.

"I, I did it! Ha, haha!"

'I never thought I'd succeed! Ahahaha—!'

Yoo Yeonha laughed proudly and thought, 'maybe this person isn't that amazing after all!'

"Even if it's you, without a weapon..."

But in the next moment...

The gun flew back into Kim Hajin's hand as though it was enchanted by something.

"Ah, aah! W-Where are you going!?"

Yoo Yeonha tried to grab the gun midair, but it was too late.

The 'Aether wire' Kim Hajin secretly shot out adhered to the gun and retrieved it. With Aether's Detail Materialization trait, Aether wire was invisible unless one's eyes were imbued with magic power. As a result, Yoo Yeonha thought that this phenomenon was the result of Kim Hajin's magic power.
