For Song Soo-yeon, Stella's words felt like a ray of light.

Blocked by an insurmountable wall, wondering what to do next, Stella appeared as a connection.

All the provocations Stella had made before were forgotten.

Soo-yeon had no intention of upholding petty pride.

She was willing to kneel if asked.

Stella said,

"...No, to put it more precisely...please help Gyeom."

Soo-yeon nodded and replied,

"Yes...! Of course."

A new path set Soo-yeon's mind racing.

What should she do?

She didn't know what Jung-gyeom needed right now.

No, more than that, she wanted to know where Jung-gyeom was.

"I'll come to you. Just let me know where."

But Stella responded firmly,

"That's not possible."

"...Stella..."

"...Gyeom doesn't want to see you right now."

Soo-yeon clenched her fists.

Hearing those words was always hard.

Even though she already knew from Jung-gyeom himself...it always hurt.

Soo-yeon wiped her eyes again.

Then, she racked her brain for ways to help Jung-gyeom from her position.

...Thinking about it, Jung-gyeom's biggest concern was hunting the Villain Alliance.

As far as she knew, not only Stella but also Stingshot, Liquid, and Riem had been captured by Jung-gyeom.

She didn't know what he planned to do with them...but she wanted to help.

Of course, she didn't want to see Jung-gyeom consumed by anger.

However, if this could somehow earn his forgiveness, she was more than willing to assist.

"...Should I help catch Tryno?"

Soo-yeon asked.

"...What?"

"...Riem told me a few days ago that Tryno was looking for me. Even though I had my mask off, Riem found me... Tryno probably knows my face too."

"-Wait a moment, Luna."

"I can be the bait. So you can catch Tryno-"

"-Leave Tryno alone."

Stella flatly rejected Soo-yeon's offer.

"...What?"

Soo-yeon, puzzled, asked again, but Stella only sighed deeply instead of explaining.

"...Haaa... That's not what I was asking for your help with."

"..."

Soo-yeon couldn't understand the current situation.

Why not accept the help?

Because Jung-gyeom would hate her taking action?

Or because Stella was close to Tryno?

"..."

Regardless, Soo-yeon had no intention of reversing Stella's refusal.

"...Then what..."
