"What the hell did you do, now—Woozi!?"

Rose rushes towards the genie's aid, a horrified expression displayed on the fairy's face. She crouches down on her knees and places a hand on his shoulder, making the man wince in pain. Her hands shake every time her fingers ghost over Woozi's wounds, which aren't much, but they'll definitely leave a mark; or bruise over time.

Woozi winces every time he has to move, so he can get conformity, resulting into him groaning in pain.

Of course Woozi would interrupt something important, cleaning up her own house. The genie left the house an obliterate mess, and drank all her wine. What gets her heated the most is that they were specialty wines from different places of the underworld.

In other words, they were illegal.

Now where would she get them now? Maybe from Felix, but she's have to go talk to his father, and that man is quite interesting.

"Jin—he found me walking inside the realm's mall. I was just trying to get a new wand!" Woozi groans in pain every time he has to muster out a word. His ribs are burning, and the terrible bruises forming on his stomach, are not helping the aching pain he would have to contend with.

Let's not forget the amount of energy he had to use in order for him to actually poof out of there. He was not going to give up without some kind of fight. Or, at least, when he's desperately out of all ideas for him to conjoin to.

"Why do you need a wand?" Rose asks,

"Genies don't use wands. So, what the hell were you really doing, Woozi!?"

Woozi groans in another type of form. He groans in annoyance, and winces due to him wanting to lay on the floor. He eventually succeeds in laying down. He stares at the ceiling with a blank expression, and proceeds to speak,

"I was getting you a new wand, Rose. I know how broken your other wand is, so I decided to get out of my way and buy it for you."

Rose scoffs silently, but feels her heart warming due to Woozi's actions.

On the contrary, Woozi starts to feel a pang of guilt as he just lied to Rose.

Dammit, now I actually have to get a wand.

Woozi just wanted to tell the people from the syndicate that he might need some more time. Since, Felix wants to take his sweet ass time with Yeona, and decided to bring her father into this mess.

He only has a couple of months left, until Yeona has to go to the underworld and talk with the council.

He has to get her before that even happens.

He must show Jin who's boss here, and what perfect way can Woozi do that to show who's boss?

Oh Yeona, you are perfect for this job.

"So what's it's gonna be, Jung?"

Felix taps his foot on the ground, creating a rhythm that seems to annoy the man in front of him.

Felix notices the mans annoyance growing every time his foot meets with the cold cement, and grins mockingly. He continues to tap his foot with a more quick rhythm, as a way to entertain himself and the man in front of him. The demon asks tauntingly, "I asked a question, Jung."

The man stares blankly at his enslaved hands, admiring the cold, shiny metal engulfing half of his wrists, and creating a sense of cold residue whenever he tilts his wrists to a certain angle. He clasps his hands together and clears his throat, avoiding the cold touch the handcuffs bring upon him. He looks up to the smirking demon.
