Yoo Jonghyuk looked down from the building where he was standing. The endless sky gave of a warm glow to welcome the night. The great hall looked as massive as always as it floated in the sky. The scenery would've been welcoming for anyone other than himself. 

Yoo Jonghyuk didn't care about the scenery. He didn't care about it at all. What he cared about was who was in it. Kim Dokja was down there practicing 'way of the wind'. Or a more accurate depiction was that he horrible failing at it. Kim Dokja really didn't have any talent when it came to things like this. 

How hard must it have been to have to try to surpass that talent of his. 

Yoo Jonghyuk's eyes weren't glaring at Kim Dokja instead he wore a softer look that didn't suit his personality. But that softer look couldn't be compared to when other people had a soft look on themselves. Yoo Jonghyuk's softer look was when he didn't frown and he didn't furrow his eyebrows. Instead his mouth formed more of a straight line and his eyes were deep with emotion. 

A strange facial expression that if Kim Dokja saw it he would of thought that Yoo Jonghyuk was possessed or something similar.  Maybe Yoo Jonghyuk just was possessed, not by a different person but possessed with emotions. 

Yoo Jonghyuk hadn't been here for long. Well, a long time for Yoo Jonghyuk and a long time for normal people was different. A moment for Yoo Jonghyuk could easily surpass hours for a normal human. While that didn't mean time passed differently Yoo Jonghyuk but instead it was like when you're focusing on a game and time pass faster. It was like that when Yoo Jonghyuk was watching Kim Dokja. 

Nine days were left until the start of the fifth scenario. It was about a day earlier than the time when Yoo Jonghyuk arrived bloodied and poisoned in front of Kim Dokja. 

Kim Dokja, Lycaon and Han Sooyoung was together down there. Lycaon. The name that wasn't very memorable but it was still stuck in his head. Maybe it was because of the story he had been told a few repeated times. However, the knowledge that Lycaon brought wasn't much compared to what Yoo Jonghyuk himself knew. 

The destroyed plant that Lycaon originated from didn't exist and knowledge about that place wasn't usable to him. It had helped him figure out what the other guides and disaster were but it didn't help him much more. 

Way of the Wind. It was a skill that Kim Dokja had frequently used. He failed to learn it thanks to his talent but because of his 'bookmark' skill he could still use it. Yoo Jonghyuk thought he could have helped Kim Dokja more it he would've been allowed to see the description of  Kim Dokja's skills but he didn't think much about it.

The moon had already made it's appearance and it would soon become dark. Yoo Jonghyuk had watched enough and he decided to descend upon the ground. Tomorrow they would need to fight Disaster of Questions which had decided to awaken earlier due to a guides interference.

Yoo Jonghyuk's landing didn't shake the ground nor did it make any peculiar noise even though he had come down from quite the hight. Yoo Jonghyuk's techniques were all top class as he had studied under his master for a long time. 

-Kim Dokja. 

Yoo Jonghyuk sent a message to Kim Dokja. Luckily the response came quickly. 

-Yoo Jonghyuk? 

-I'm here. 

-Huh?

Kim Dokja tensed up a bit before turning around and trying to spot Yoo Jonghyuk. Yoo Jonghyuk wasn't that close yet so it took a few seconds before Kim Dokja found him. 

Han Sooyoung also looked at where Kim Dokja was looking because she found it odd for him to suddenly stop and then start looking around. Han Sooyoung wasn't very delighted with what she saw.
