The Novel's Extra (101-200)

Chapter 125 - Chae Jinyoon (3)

Once I walked past a cave-like pathway, I could see two women sitting down on chairs.

Boss and Jain.

I could feel powerful magic power emanating from the two. It was the level of magic power possessed by those who surpassed a certain threshold.

I took a deep breath and walked up to them.

Boss spoke.

"You're here, Little Apprentice."

"Yes."

I bowed. However,she was looking at me with eyes asking for more. I did as she wished.

"Boss."

"...Mmm."

Along with a satisfied hum, black magic power flowed out of Boss' body, forming a chair. I sat down on it and stared at Jain. She was scanning me from top to bottom.

"...This is Jain. Think of her as a fellow member."

Once Boss gave the introduction, Jain smiled and waved her hand.

"Hi hi."

"Yes, nice to meet you."

Other than the times I saw her in disguise, this was the first time I was meeting her. I bowed as respectfully as possible.

"You see, Hajin-ssi, I have so many questions for you."

"...Yes, what is it?"

She likely wanted to know my motive for wanting to kill Chae Jinyoon.

"Those clothes, did you copy them from a fashion magazine?"

"...Come again?"

What kind of a question was that?

"Unlike other male cadets your age, you have excellent fashion sense."

"...."

To be honest, I put a lot of effort into my clothes. As an average-looking person with an average-height in his mid-20s, fashion was the only way to make myself more attractive. Since I didn't have to worry about money now, it was only natural that my clothes were better than other cadets, who rarely wore anything other than their cadet uniforms.

"I'm just a bit interested~"

"I see."

"Jain."

Boss leered at Jain, who narrowed her eyes and murmured, 'okay, okay'.

"I want to know why you want to kill Chae Jinyoon."

"...."

I pondered. Could I tell them about the mysterious existence known as Devil's Seed? Would they believe that such a calamitous thing existed, when I had no way to prove it?

"If you don't want to tell us, you can keep it to yourself."

However, Boss cut off my worries. Putting aside Jain who was smacking her lips disappointedly, Boss continued with a serious face.

"But the price you'll have to pay is clear."

Boss' eyes flickered with a strange fervor.

"You will become our strength, not forgetting this debt and... signing this contract."

The last part made me chuckle.

"Of course."

"Good, then I'll explain what's going to happen."

Jain immediately spoke up.

She created a triangular table with her magic power and put her arms on it.
